Cochin Thang Long City.

Located on the side of the Dun River, the Qing Dynasty capital palace is more luxurious than the imperial palace, all the pavilions and pavilions have both Chinese style, but also have the local characteristics of Jiaozhi, the stone lion of the palace gate is majestic, the armor guards strictly, the servants in the palace are like clouds, a scene of wealth and glory.

Zheng Jie, the seventy-year-old king of Qingdu, has hair like snow, his face is clear, and the two delicate-faced maid rings behind him gently help him fan, in April in Thang Long Mansion, the weather is very hot, and he knows how to chirp in the thick longan tree.

In the flower hall, Zheng Chongzan, who had returned from the envoy Daqin, knelt on the ground, looking uneasy, although Zheng Jie's eyes were closed, as if he was asleep, but the pressure exuded from his body made Zheng Chong almost suffocate and sweat on his back.

After a long while, Zheng Jiecai raised his hand to signal, and a maid bowed and bowed, and walked backwards out of the flower hall.

Subsequently, Zheng Jie's second son Zheng Zheng, the king of the West, the third son Zheng Li, the fourth son Zheng Di, the fourth son Qiongyan Zheng Di, the fifth son Zheng Qi, and the two Zheng Jie's henchmen Li Ming and Cai Xu came to the flower hall together.

The Zheng regime to Zheng Jie's generation, it is already the fourth generation, the emperor of the Li Dynasty is just a puppet in the hands of the Zheng family, whoever he wants to set up, who he wants to abolish is abolished, all in the Zheng family's head of the thought, the Zheng family is full of kings and dukes, and is the actual ruler of the Li Dynasty.

Zheng Jie's eldest son died early, and his second son Zheng Zheng is forty-three years old this year.

He spoke first: "Father, Emperor Daqin didn't mention the Mo family's rebellion, but blindly accused my Zheng family, it seems that Daqin, like the former Ming, intends to support the Mo family to contain our Zheng family, we have to take precautions." ”

The Mo family was defeated again and again, and the reason why they were able to gain a firm foothold in Gaoping in the end was precisely because of the intervention of the Ming court.

Zheng Jie is well aware that a unified strong Jiaozhi. It was not in the interests of the Central Plains Dynasty, so whether it was the Ming Dynasty or the Qin Dynasty, they all coincidentally chose to support the weak Mo Clan.

His closed eyes opened slightly, and a fine light shot into the dawn.

Xia Cicada's drumming noise made people a little irritable, and Zheng Jie's chief strategist Li Ming frowned and said: "Lord, the world has changed from time to time, and I think that this time is different from the past. ”

Cai Xu also said: "Lord, at the beginning, the Ming court was too busy to take care of itself, and the support of the Mo clan was just to use the Mo clan as a buffer, so as not to threaten the two Guangxi after the unification of our dynasty." The core idea of the Ming court is still a word;

Today's Qin Dynasty is very different, in just a few years, the Qin Dynasty was able to sweep away all the separatist forces, destroy the powerful Jurchens, and recast the great unification of China.

Today's emperor of Qin is in the prime of life, quite some Qin Shi Huang's ambition to unify the country, throughout the Central Plains Dynasty of the past dynasties, after sweeping the world, it is not a horse to put Nanshan, to the people to recuperate.

But Qin Mu only made a big move to the Northern Dynasty last year. To unify China, he immediately sent a naval division to attack Luzon this year, and defeated Xiyi, who was entrenched in Luzon, in one fell swoop. In other words, he can send troops to Luzon. Why can't you send troops to my Dayue? ”

Liming stroked his beard and nodded: "Yes, the Ming court supports the Mo clan to guard; The Qin State supported the Mo Clan, but I am afraid that it is for the attack! ”

The word "attack" is said. made Zheng Zheng, Zheng Li, Zheng Di, and Zheng Qi who were present suddenly look suspicious;

Among the three forces currently in Cochin, although the Zheng family is the strongest, it occupies the richest plain area of Thang Long Province (Hanoi). However, the Nguyen clan, which is entrenched in the area of Quang Binh province in the south, has also gradually become a climate.

Five years ago, the Zheng family also obtained the help of the Dutch and obtained powerful artillery to break through a wall in Quang Binh Province, but the Nguyen family also received Portuguese cannons, and under the second wall, the Zheng family still suffered a defeat.

The Mo family and the Ruan family are separated from the north and south, forming a two-sided attack on the Zheng family, which has already given the Zheng family a headache, and if a Great Qin is added, the consequences will be unimaginable.

Zheng Jie opened his eyes at this time, two rays of light swept across the faces of his sons, and he asked unhurriedly: "Tell me, how should you deal now?" ”

The third son, Zheng Li, replied first: "Back to my father, the child feels that we should immediately send troops now and make every effort to destroy the Ruan clan in Quang Binh Mansion, so as not to be attacked on both sides of our Zheng family in the future, and in addition, after destroying the Ruan clan, there will be a large room for maneuver to deal with the possible invasion of the Qin State." ”

Zheng Jie's expression on his face did not fluctuate at all when he heard this, and he turned to look at his second son, Zheng Zheng.

Zheng Zheng hurriedly said: "Father, the Ruan clan in Guangping is gradually becoming a climate, even if there is no threat from the Qin State, it is necessary to find a way to destroy it; The third brother is strategically correct, but tactically it may not work. ”

Zheng Zheng hit his younger brother Zheng Li without a trace, and the Zheng family had sent troops south to attack the Ruan clan many times, but they were unsuccessful. So he said that his brother was strategically correct, and it was also true that tactically it would not work.

Zheng Li was dismissed in public, and asked unhappily: "How do you think the second brother can work?" ”

Zheng Zheng bowed to his father and said, "Father, the Ruan clan has become a climate, and it will be difficult to eliminate him in a short time. However, the time is not waiting for us, so the child thinks that we should do our best to prepare for war on the one hand, and on the other hand send people to contact the Dutch, if we can get the help of the Dutch, it will not be difficult to destroy the Nguyen clan.

On the other hand, the Great Qin Emperor has issued an edict against Dongwu, regarding Dongwu as an enemy, we can send someone to Dongwu to meet Ta Long and ask him to send troops to help in the war;

Erchen believes that with the edict of the Great Qin Emperor, the pressure on Ta Long must be greater than that of our dynasty. To be able to form an alliance with our dynasty and advance and retreat together is probably something he can't ask for. ”

After hearing the words of the second son, Zheng Jie, who had been unfazed, bowed his head slightly, and his snow-white beard made him look full of vicissitudes and wisdom.

Qin Mu claimed to be the successor of Qin Shi Huang's legal system, and the area around Shenglong Mansion was under the rule of Qin Xiangjun in the pre-Qin era. Therefore do not leave anything to chance, Zo'er, as you say, send someone to contact the Dutch and Talon, and act in secrecy, so that the world does not know. ”

"Yes, Father."

After the sons retreated, Zheng Jie took a sip of tea, and then asked, "Do the two gentlemen have anything else to add?" ”

Liming groaned and said: "Lord, the Emperor of Qin refused to canonize my dynasty this time, which will inevitably make some officials of my dynasty uncertain, I am afraid that it will not be good for the lord, so I have to guard against it." ”

The reason for the Great Qin Emperor's refusal to be canonized was very simple, the Zheng family held the king of the Li Dynasty hostage, which was an act of rebellion, and Yan zhòng betrayed the emperor's ministers, fathers and sons, and of course Great Qin could not encourage such behavior.

No matter what the purpose of Daqin, this excuse is high-sounding.

This will inevitably make some ministers of the Li Dynasty suspicious of the Zheng family, and then they will be half-hearted and unwilling to be loyal to the Zheng family.

For thousands of years, although Cochin has been independent of the Central Plains Dynasty for a long time, the influence of the Chinese kingdom on Cochin is ubiquitous.

Not being canonized by the Chinese Lords was a very strict matter for the Jiaozhi regime, which often meant that a catastrophe was imminent.

Zheng Jie naturally also knew the strict nature of this matter, and it would shake the ruling foundation of the Zheng family from within.

He immediately ordered the monitoring of the Emperor of the Li Dynasty and the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs to be strengthened.

Another strategist, Cai Xu, continued: "Lord, I humble you think that in addition to actively preparing for the invasion, if we want to remove the threat of the Qin State, we must take medicine from the root. ”

"Sir, please."

"Your Lord, I heard that the Qin State is now building a straight road from Changsha to Kunming, and if the Qin State does this, it will not only weaken the Tusi power in the southwest, but also be a great threat to our dynasty and Dongwu.

Lord, please think that whether it is the Tusi in the southwest or our dynasty, it has been able to be independent for thousands of years, it is nothing more than because of the danger of Guanshan, once this straight road is completed, the army and supplies of the kingdom can be sent over lightly, and it will be difficult for me to survive alone.

The toasts in the southwest probably haven't realized this yet, so let's send someone to sue them, so that these toasts in the southwest will make trouble, so that the Qin State will have no time to take care of our dynasty.

In addition, the Qin State not only transferred tens of thousands of Jurchen captives to build roads, but also captured tens of thousands of young people from Luzon, if it can incite these people to rebel, it would be better, but these captives colluded with the Tusi in the southwest, and the Qin army was a million-strong army, and it may not be able to win. ”

After Zheng Jie's listening, his white hair was solemn, and his eyes skyrocketed!
