Zheng Sen led his troops to sit in Sha County, Yanping Prefecture, and Deputy General Li thought that this place was not peaceful, and suggested that he return to Datian County, on the border between Yanping Prefecture and Quanzhou Prefecture.

"Now the northern part of Tingzhou Mansion is not very peaceful, and there are also traces of the Huaiwang rebels in the area of Guihua and Xiayang, as long as there are Huaiwang rebels, the three guards are like maggots on the tarsal bones, in case they make a sneak attack......"

To tell the truth, with Zheng Sen, the eldest son, by his side, Yu Li felt pressured, one was afraid that Zheng Sen would not be able to bear this responsibility if there was a good one, and the other was that the eldest prince was in charge, and he couldn't let go of his hands and feet.

Zheng Sen smiled: "Are you afraid that I will interfere with your command?" Dispel this concern, just let it go, I heard that you were also a well-known black god in this area. ”

Hearing the eldest prince mention the past when he fell into the grass, Yu Li couldn't help but feel a little proud, he was not only a famous black god at the beginning, even the official army was beaten by him, and later Xiong Wencan was appointed as the governor of Fujian, and he was tempted by high-ranking officials Lilu, so he picked up the thief's skin and put on this official skin. Later, Zheng Zhilong's power gradually grew, and he took refuge in Zheng Zhilong.

"The eldest prince is serious, and the eldest prince is always in front of him, but this place is too close to the range of activities of the Three Guards, in case it ......" Yu Li was a little slurred when he spoke.

"When I was at sea, the great battle was ten times more dangerous than the land battle, and how could I have feared it? Yu Junmen don't have to worry, I'm only here to watch the battle, not to interfere. ”

Seeing that Zheng Sen insisted on it, Yu Li couldn't insist on his opinion, so he could only nod and compliment a few words, which led to the topic.

"I just caught a spy today, this person claims to be the envoy of King Huai, I don't know if the eldest prince will see it?" According to Yu Li's thoughts, this person must not be seen, but he can't specialize, so he has to ask for instructions first, and then make suggestions. Who knew that Zheng Sen laughed after hearing this: "This Huai King can be called timely rain, bring this person to see me." ”

Before the words that had not been interfered with just now landed, he threw the flag out of the clouds.

Yu Limian had that color, but after a little thought, he still suggested: "This person's identity is unknown, is it screened by the mark first?" In fact, he had already screened it, but this person was a confidant of King Huai and was the governor of King Huai's mansion. Zheng Sen immediately rejected Yu Li's suggestion.

"With the cooperation of King Huai, you and I will defeat the Three Guards entrenched in Shaowu Mansion and it will be a matter of course. Yu Junmen went to summon the envoy of King Huai, so he didn't have to worry too much. ”

"The eldest prince, King Huai is a rebel after all, if we have something to do with him, we will definitely be truthful!"

At this moment, Zheng Sen was already a little impatient, his brows were slightly furrowed, and there was a slight displeasure in his tone.

"Even if you don't give them the truth, these people have come to Fujian differently? If we follow the meaning of the marshal, will we endure until they have beaten Yanping Mansion and killed all the way to Quanzhou Mansion and Fuzhou Mansion? ”

As he said the last few words, his voice had risen significantly. Yu Li knew that this eldest prince was not a good-tempered person, so he had to turn to compliments again.

"The eldest prince made a clear decision, and marked this to bring the envoy of the king of Huai to meet with the eldest prince."

After a few moments, a thin man of about forty years of age was brought in, his robe was very sloppy, and he could smell a sour smell from a distance, and his beard was as unkempt as his hair, but he tried his best to put on an elegant bearing, which at first glance seemed a little funny.

"Shi Chen Shiwu, the head of the Huaiwang Mansion, has seen the eldest prince."

Zheng Sen is just a general in Fujian, and his official position is even lower than that deputy general, so he calls him the eldest prince both inside and outside, so as to avoid a lot of embarrassment.

In the face of this arrogant attitude of the eldest son of the Zheng family, Chen Shiwu was somewhat indignant, the corruption of the world made these Haikou thieves popular, there was a Li Xin born horse thief in Nanjing is now a super marquis, Zheng Sen in front of him is just the son of the Haikou, it is said that he was born with the daughter of the Japanese Kou, the official is just a general and dares to treat the prince so slowly. As for this deputy general, it is said that he was also recruited by a thief.

But so what, the world is so daring to erect, so he can only endure it.

"King Huai heard that the eldest prince was coming with an army, and he was sent to say hello."

"You're welcome, Changshi must have something else to do this time besides saying hello." Zheng Sen didn't want to talk to him more, so he went straight to the point.

Chen Shiwu was still thinking about how to talk about cooperation with the eldest prince, but since he took the initiative to bring it up, he might as well go straight to the topic.

"I learned that Li Xin had been unfavorable to Zheng Dashuai, and now the eldest prince has come to Shaowu again, if you and I cooperate with the two sides to attack, it will only be a matter of time before Li Xin's Three Guards army will fall."

However, after Zheng Sen heard this, his face changed suddenly.

"Who qualifies the rebels to negotiate cooperation with me? If you know each other, persuade your Huai King to come and surrender, and then talk about a joint attack. ”

"This, you ......"

Chen Shiwu never expected that Zheng Sen, who was still smiling, would turn his face in the blink of an eye, and suddenly didn't know how to answer. Let King Huai surrender, how is this possible? After surrendering Zheng Sen, they didn't have the slightest bargaining chip in their hands to deal with it, if so, why did they have to work hard to support under the heavy slaughter of the Three Guards in the first place?

After a long time, Chen Shiwu regained his composure, "The subordinates are soft-spoken, and they can't make decisions for King Huai, but the eldest prince is so aggressive, it's not an attitude of cooperation at all." If the eldest prince insists on this, you and I will have nothing to talk about. ”

After all, Chen Shiwu was holding back a ball of fire in his heart, so he had lost the humility and politeness he had when he first met.

"It's really strange that a traitor dares to negotiate terms with my Ming officials and soldiers, and he dragged this madman out left and right and whipped fifty lashes."

In the navy army, they were not punished with military sticks, but used whips, so Zheng Sen ordered Chen Shiwu to withdraw and whip him. But fifty lashes were enough to whip a living man half to death.

Chen Shiwu did not panic or even kneel down and beg for mercy as Zheng Sen imagined, but scolded loudly.

"King Huai is the bloodline of Taizu, how can he surrender to you? As the head of the palace, I was whipped by you, but what I insulted was the reputation of King Huai, and now I only want to die quickly. ”

Before he finished speaking, Chen Shiwu slammed into the pillars in the hall, and blood splattered on the spot with a bang. Yu Li on the side was already dumbfounded, and when he reacted, it was too late to stop it. Zheng Sen was so frightened that he jumped up, ran to Chen Shiwu in a few steps, and reached out to probe that there was still a faint breath between his nose.

"General, the rangers have come to report, there is definite news, Zheng Sen personally led more than 50,000 foot soldiers, has arrived in Shaxian, and the department is also moving to Jiangle and Shunchang. Also, Shi Kefa of Jianning Mansion didn't know what medicine he had taken wrong, and he seemed to have the intention of going south. ”

Zhang Shi touched his gurgling belly, unconcerned with the news of Shi Kefa's southward departure.

"Leave him alone, as long as Shi Kefa moves, it will be of great benefit to my Three Guards. If it weren't for the rampant diarrhea, we would have killed it all the way. However, under the diarrhea, the physical strength of the soldiers dropped to the bottom, not to mention fighting a tough battle, even the march was difficult. Withdraw our people from the Shuikou area, and those in the direction of Taining will also shrink to Shaowu, and if necessary, first withdraw to Jianchang Mansion in Jiangxi to recuperate. ”

After Zheng Laiyong heard this, he wrote them down one by one, but he was unwilling to bring Zheng Sen to lead the troops.

"When did our Three Guards lose before they fought? Where are you afraid of him? Mark more than 1,000 brothers who have not contracted diarrhea to kill him, and give him a disadvantage first. ”

Zhang Shi thought for a moment and said: "If Zheng Sen wants to attack Shao Wu, he must first solve the rebels of King Huai, isn't it just fulfilling King Huai's wish when we rush forward?" Let's wait and see what happens, and wait for Zheng Sen to defeat King Huai. ”

Zheng Laiyong didn't look down on the officials and troops in Fujian very much, because the Huaiwang rebels beat them all the way, so they even despised this Zheng Sen. "How can the general be sure that Zheng Sen will definitely be able to defeat the Huai Wang rebels?"

His expression was very disdainful, and he intuitively felt that the farther south he went, the weaker the combat effectiveness of the army became.

Zhang Shi obviously noticed Zheng Laiyong's arrogance, so he persuaded: "Don't look down on the foot soldiers brought by the Zheng family, the reason why the Fujian official army can't defeat the Huai Wang rebels, you don't look at what kind of goods are fighting against the Huai Wang, they are all rotten guards, such soldiers can't even beat the thieves, what's so strange about being defeated by the Huai Wang rebels." However, although Zheng Sen is much inferior to his father, according to the information of all parties, he is not a straw bag of rice bags, so let's let King Huai be the touchstone first. ”

Zhang Shihe smiled bitterly twice, if his grenadier battalion was not plagued by large-scale and continuous diarrhea and his physical strength had dropped significantly, how could he have the slightest fear today? But the rampant diarrhea has alerted Zhang Shishu, and dozens of people have died of diarrhea today. Although he had ordered Sui Junlang to prescribe a decoction for the prevention and treatment of diarrhea, it had little effect after all.

As the saying goes, a good man can't stand it, not to mention that it's been four days in a row. Zhang Shi's heart was already anxious and nervous, but he couldn't show it easily, otherwise letting these soldiers spread it would have an irreparable impact on the morale of the army. Fortunately, Zheng Laiyong, a new brave general, is still alive and well, and his confidence has only stabilized a little.

In the evening, there was news back to Shaowu, the army led by Shi Kefa and the rebels of King Huai started a big battle in Renshou Town, where Shao Wu met in Jianning, the battle was dark, and the rebels of King Huai were defeated, and they retreated all the way to the left bank of Xixi.

Shi Kefa went all the way to the south, sweeping dozens of miles within a radius of Shunchang, and the power of the Huaiwang rebels in the Xixi area was dealt a heavy blow.

Zheng Laiyong sighed with emotion, "It's okay now, the touchstone didn't wait for the test, so that Shi Kefa smashed it." This Shi Kefa is also strange, let's send someone to ask for a joint attack, but he refused to do so, so he turned his face and started fighting again. ”

Zhang Shishi fell into deep thought.
