Chapter 914: The Truth Comes Out
Before the sky was bright, Ke Tong and Zhang Shu returned to the post house and came to Duan Xuan's room.
"Your Excellency!"
Ke Tong bowed down and said: "The subordinates have checked it, that's right, that person is Tang Ruowang, when the subordinates arrived, Tang Ruowang had already woken up, but he was still very weak, and obviously his mind was greatly stimulated, and for a while, we couldn't get useful information......"
"I don't need to get any information."
Duan Xuan's face was gloomy and he said, "This is enough, enough to prove that our arms must be under Zheng Zhilong." ”
"So, what are we going to do next? Or, let's find an opportunity to break down the killer and take down Zheng Zhilong? ”
Ke Tong said in a low voice.
Duan Xuan shook his head and replied: "Impossible, we are only a hundred people, and Fuzhou is Zheng Zhilong's lair, we have no chance at all, even if we can really restrain Zheng Zhilong, we can't leave safely, we will only force Zheng Zhilong's people into a corner, once he tears his face, Zheng Zhilong can do anything in order to protect himself, if he falls to the Manchurian Tartars, that is our most troublesome moment!" But as long as there is a glimmer of hope, we can't push Zheng Zhilong to Manchuria, otherwise, we will be in big trouble......"
"So, what are we going to do? Now that Zheng Zhilong has made it clear that he doesn't want to hand over the arms, can we just return in vain......
Ke Tong said urgently.
Duan Xuan sneered: "What do you mean to return without success? As long as we confirm that this matter was done by Zheng Zhilong, it will not be in vain, it is enough, the rest of the things, the emperor has his own way to deal with it, what we have to do now is to find out the whereabouts of the arms within two days, all the brothers in Fujian will be mobilized, go all out to investigate, collect all possible intelligence, and you don't have to worry about the rest, and you still have to tell you to go down, don't leak the news, Tang Ruowang's matter, Zheng Zhilong must not let Zheng Zhilong know, Zhang Shu, once Tang Ruowang's body is stabilized, Arrange reliable manpower immediately and send it back to Nanjing! Also, didn't you say that a few ships left Mawei and never returned? Check it out and see where they went, if my guess is correct, all the munitions should be on these warships, hidden by Zheng Zhilong. ”
Zhang Shu hurriedly bowed down and agreed, and then said: "Lord Ministry, according to the speculation of his subordinates, Zheng Zhilong should not have known about the robbery this time, and it was his subordinates who did it from him, but now that the matter has been seated, Zheng Zhilong has no room for maneuver, so he has to bite the bullet and deny it, do you think it is possible to let the emperor comfort him warmly and give a will, as long as Zheng Zhilong hands it over, then all the offenses should be pardoned and not investigated?" ”
Duan Xuan shook his head and replied, "What you think is too simple, Zheng Zhilong is cunning by nature, how can he believe this?" Even if the emperor really wants to pardon him, he doesn't dare to take this risk, don't forget, it's not just him Zheng Zhilong who turns the clouds and rain, the court also often turns his hands into clouds and rain, as for the promise, it is a bullshit, especially in Zheng Zhilong's eyes, it is even more a bullshit, he doesn't believe in anyone, only believes in himself! You also have to be careful, once Zheng Zhilong feels the wind and grass, even if it is you, he will not hesitate to find a reason to get rid of it, not to mention this Tang Ruowang? ”
Zhang Shu smiled and said in a low voice: "Don't worry, Lord Ministry, we have been operating in Fujian for tens or hundreds of years, and all the foundations left by Jinyiwei have been inherited by us, how deep the water is, it is not for him Zheng Zhilong to wade out, he doesn't have this ability, even his subordinates haven't fully figured it out, and if he wants to get rid of us, he is dreaming......"
"Okay, in that case, let's act immediately, I want the specific location of that batch of munitions, once I get the information, I will fly the pigeon and pass the book, the emperor is waiting for the news in a hurry!"
In two days, in just two days, the entire Fuzhou City has even spread to Quanzhou City, the entire network of the Intelligence Department has been running rapidly, the Sky Net is magnificent, negligent but not leaky, even if Zheng Zhilong does things closely, he can't stand the Intelligence Department's investigation, not to mention that this matter is an emergency, even Zheng Zhilong was caught off guard, and there is not much time at all, so that he can do it well, but whenever something happens, there will always be clues, and one piece of information was secretly sent to the post house.
Things are getting clearer and clearer, and even John Tang, who has gradually improved, confessed the original things one by one, the Zheng family's forces in Dongying met them on the ocean, and a battle broke out suddenly, and the caravan was defeated, and in the end all the people and arms were captured, but this leader seems to be a Japanese, called what the second young master, what is Tagawa Guard......
What kind of emon is Tagawa?
When Tang Ruowang said this, Zhang Shu had already realized the problem, no wonder Zheng Zhilong didn't admit it even when he died, it was his own son's hand, once he admitted it, Shun Teng, Tagawa Nanazaemon, absolutely can't hide the sound, what does the intelligence department do, isn't it used to collect intelligence? If Zheng Zhilong didn't even know that he had a son named Tagawa Nanazaemon, then the Ministry of Intelligence would really become an ornament.
The information was sent to Duan Xuan, Duan Xuan was naturally clear, the matter had come to light, however, the clearer the matter, the greater the pressure Duan Xuan felt, it was related to Zheng Zhilong's own son, Zheng Zhilong had no way out at all, what about the imperial court, the imperial court had no way to retreat, without this batch of arms and equipment just prepared for the Beijing camp, then these 50,000 people would be vulnerable in front of the Manchurian elite cavalry, this Nanjing Three Towns is different, Nanjing Three Towns is the elite selected from the Nanjing Fourteen Guards, It is an elite force, and after several months of rigorous training, it is naturally strong in combat, but this Beijing camp is completely a group of strong people, without the slightest experience, if there is no firearm as a backing, where can it compete with the Manchurian elite cavalry?
Call......
Duan Xuan let out a long breath and said in a deep voice: "Okay, our task is complete, three days have passed, we have no reason to stay here, return to Nanjing immediately, I believe that the emperor will not let this Zheng Zhilong succeed, there is always a way to clean him up, prepare a horse for this official, I will go to Zheng Zhilong to resign!" ”
In three days, Zheng Zhilong was killed by Duan Xuan because all the dark lines in the post house were blatantly tied to the courtyard, so he no longer dared to install people, Duan Xuan just gave himself a warning, if he didn't stop, it would not be a warning, but a continuous trouble, as long as he didn't tear his face with the court for a day, he couldn't deal with Duan Xuan, after all, this is the minister of the Qincha!
