Zheng Zhilong had no intention of rebelling, but he was determined not to hand over the ship, because this was his only bargaining chip. Without this bargaining chip, it is clear that his future fate is no longer in his own hands.

But Qin Shuhuai must control Zheng Zhilong's warships, because without these warships, the sailors of the Ming Dynasty would not know that they would not be built until the Year of the Monkey, and the ocean surface of southern Fujian and even Southeast Asia would not be able to be truly controlled by the imperial court.

The positions of the two sides are different, and it is inevitable that it will lead to conflict.

The difference is that Qin Shuhuai's abacus played earlier than Zheng Zhilong's.

When it was ugly, the two thousand martial arts coalition troops originally stationed in Xianyou were like ghosts, and they didn't know where they came from, and suddenly drove into Quanzhou.

When the defenders of Quanzhou City saw these two thousand fierce and vicious coalition troops, they didn't even dare to let it go, and immediately let it go after seeing the token.

However, the guard general still knew to inform the deputy general soldiers of Fujian, who were also in the city, but after the deputy general soldiers got the news, they only said four words: ignore them.

Who doesn't know that the martial arts alliance is under the command of Grandpa Guo, where are they going, what are they doing, and it is his turn to ask a little deputy commander-in-chief?

After the Wulin coalition army entered Quanzhou, they rushed to Anhai Town.

At five o'clock, he entered the boundary of Anhai Town.

There are more than 17,000 soldiers and horses under Zheng Zhilong's command stationed in Anhai Town, most of whom were recruited from southern Fujian. This army was better equipped than the officers and soldiers of the imperial court, and it was well trained.

The important thing is that they only obey Zheng Zhilong's orders, and even the governor of Fujian has no right to transfer. Previously, the governor of Fujian and Zheng Zhilong reached a certain tacit understanding, that is, the soldiers of the imperial court would not be stationed in Anhai, and it can be said that Anhai was an independent small kingdom, completely ruled by Zheng Zhilong.

When the Wulin coalition army appeared in Anhai Town, it was immediately stopped by about 3,000 troops.

The 3,000 people immediately dispersed and set up a defensive formation, looking like they were waiting for the battle.

The general of Zheng Zhilong's next army walked to the front row and asked, "Stop, who are you under your command, how dare you trespass into Anhai Town?"

The one who commanded these two thousand martial arts coalition troops was none other than Cheng Feng of the Qinglong Hall of the Jianghe Gang, that is, the killer of the Dark Cloud Sect that Qin Shuhuai brought back from Jiangnan.

After this guy entered the Qinglong Hall, he was first tortured by the leather dog for a month or two, and then because there was a real shortage of people during the training of the martial arts coalition army, he was pulled by the leather dog to help. Since then, in more than a dozen battles, with a good martial arts foundation and the strength to play with his life, he has made a lot of contributions, and the head of the original Qinglongtang B word died in battle, so he was promoted to the top of the gear. And the head of the Jianghe Gang can naturally lead the troops in the martial arts coalition army, Qin Shuhuai randomly ordered two thousand people this time, and he happened to be the leader.

Cheng Feng is also accustomed to seeing big scenes, and he doesn't care about the three thousand people in the face of this, and said coldly, "Presumptuous! We are the martial arts alliance under the command of Grandpa Guo, where do we want to report to you? Get out of the way quickly, otherwise we will miss Grandpa Guo's big event, and it will not be enough to cut off your ten heads!"

As soon as he said this, the three thousand people on the other side were all shocked, and even the commander of the infantry army frowned, and his tone suddenly lowered a little.

said, "This general, Anhai Town is the residence of General Zheng, and it has always been customary for soldiers from the imperial court to come here to inform them in advance. I would like to ask the general to wait a moment and let me go and report to General Zheng. ”

To say that this infantry general is also a mud leg, he can't speak human words at all. Although this is true, isn't your statement implying that you are not soldiers of the imperial court? Isn't that a rebellion?

Cheng Feng immediately grabbed this handle and said coldly, "Bold fanatics, the whole world is not the king's land, the small Anhai Town, when will the soldiers of the imperial court not be able to enter? Hmph, so you are going to rebel?"

The commander of the infantry army suddenly turned pale, knowing that he had lost his words, if the hat of rebellion was really buttoned down, not only would the court kill him, but even General Zheng would not let him go.

Hurriedly said, "This general, I didn't mean that. In the final analysis, we are all soldiers of the imperial court, but, only soldiers from other aspects come in, and we have always had to be informed, which is the usual practice. As for the gaffes, please also ask Haihan. ”

Cheng Feng immediately said, "In that case, why don't you get out of the way?"

"This ......," the commander of the infantry army said, "This is not in accordance with the rules!"

The corners of Cheng Feng's mouth rose slightly, revealing a hint of a sinister smile.

Then, he suddenly pulled out his waist knife with a "puff", and the blade slashed through a cold light, and the head of the infantry commander suddenly flew up.

"Boom!"

When the three thousand infantry saw that the main general was killed like this, they all exploded.

Cheng Feng carried a bloody knife and said to the three thousand people opposite, "If you want to rebel and compete with our martial arts alliance, you can come up at this moment! If you don't want to, get out of the way!"

Immediately, the two thousand martial arts alliance troops continued to run forward in a neat manner.

Not surprisingly, the three thousand men immediately split their sides and watched as the coalition forces passed between them.

They are all people who understand. What is the level of combat effectiveness of the martial arts coalition army? That is the best quality of soldiers, the elite left over from the southern and northern wars and the great waves and sands. Now, with their combat power, even if they face the same number of Demon Cult soldiers, they may not suffer much loss.

Just because the 3,000 of them want to fight the coalition forces? It can basically be said that it is almost like looking for death!

Cheng Feng carried the head of the infantry commander and continued to run with two thousand men. After a while, he saw thousands of people rushing to surround him, so he threw his head over and shouted loudly, "This person dares to intercept the martial arts alliance under the command of Grandpa Guo, intending to rebel, and has been punished on the spot, and will punish the nine clans when he turns back!

It can be said that Zheng Zhilong's navy is a terrifying existence on the sea, but Qin Shuhuai's coalition army is an even more terrifying existence on land.

Moreover, now that the imperial court soldiers are strong and strong, Zheng Zhilong has already ordered his infantry troops not to conflict with the imperial court's soldiers. The current situation was really sudden, so the infantry generals under Zheng Zhilong didn't know how to deal with it for a while.

On the one hand, a few thousand of them could not defeat the martial arts coalition army, and on the other hand, once the war started, General Zheng would have to rebel. What if General Zheng didn't want to rebel?

It's a human being, and it's always a way to think.

But as soon as they thought and hesitated, the martial arts coalition passed.

Those thousands of soldiers and horses, like the previous ones, none of them dared to come up to stop them.

Zheng Mansion.

After chatting about the countermeasures, the three brothers of the Zheng family had some supper, and were about to disperse, but they saw the general of the First Step Army running in a hurry and said loudly, "General Zheng, it's not good! Qin Shuhuai's martial arts alliance army has somehow entered Anhai Town and is heading straight here!"

Zheng Zhilong, Zheng Zhihu, and Zheng Zhibao were all shocked when they heard it.

Zheng Zhibao said angrily, "Qin Shuhuai of the dog day! He is going to draw a salary from the bottom of the kettle, let's fight with him! It's a big deal to lose and go back to Dongfan! Or go to Dongying!"

Zheng Zhihu groaned a little and said, "Big brother, what the fifth brother said is right, Qin Shuhuai suddenly sent troops to come, and we have to guard against it!"

Zheng Zhilong's head was buzzing, almost running at full capacity.

He really couldn't figure it out, during the day, Qin Shuhuai still came to pass the decree and reward with a smile, but now he suddenly brought troops over, and his face turned too fast, right?

If he really wants to get rid of himself, why should he pretend to pass on a holy decree? You must know that doing so will also damage the prestige of the imperial court -- how can anyone say that you have meritorious service one moment and kill you the next? What will the people of the world think in this way? Is the imperial court untrustworthy?

He couldn't figure it out, he really couldn't figure it out.

In the end, only one conclusion was drawn: this Qin Shuhuai is known as the demon of the Ming Dynasty, and he is really full of demonic spirit.

"Big brother, what should I do, do you have something to say?" Zheng Zhibao urged.

Zheng Zhilong settled down and said, "Pass the order, let all the soldiers give way, and there must be no conflict with the martial arts coalition army." At the same time, all the soldiers and horses are also gathered here!"

After a pause, he said, "Didn't you say that he only brought 2,000 allied troops? We have 17,000, even if we start to do it, we are not afraid! I want to see what he Qin Shuhuai means!"

"But big brother, what if Qin Shuhuai's martial arts are strong, what if he comes in?" Zheng Zhihu asked.

Zheng Zhilong said, "You two immediately go to the dock to board the ship, Qin Shuhuai just wants our boat, as long as we hold the boat in our own hands, he won't dare to act rashly!"

"Then big brother, you ......"

"Don't worry, I have my own way. ”

Seeing this, Zheng Zhihu and Zheng Zhibao said nothing more and immediately went out.

A quarter of an hour later, two thousand martial arts allied troops rushed to the Zheng Mansion and surrounded the Zheng Mansion.

At the same time, almost all of the more than 10,000 troops under Zheng Zhilong's command also arrived and surrounded the Wulin coalition army.

The two sides were tense, but no one made a move, just a stalemate.

Zheng Zhilong sat in the living room with a pale face, sipping tea unhurriedly.

It didn't take long for the little guy outside the door to sing, "An Guogong has arrived!"

Zheng Zhilong sneered, which was not surprising to him.

Qin Shuhuai was alone, and entered the Zheng Mansion with a smile.

When Zheng Zhilong saw Qin Shuhuai, he forced a smile and said, "An Guogong came to visit late at night, and he was guilty of missing the welcome. ”

Qin Shuhuai laughed, "Nan Anbo's words are serious! This official originally wanted to visit tomorrow, but unfortunately he had urgent official business and had to leave early tomorrow morning, so he had to take the liberty of disturbing late at night, and asked Nan Anbo not to blame." ”

"How dare you, Grandpa Guo, please. ”

"Please. ”

The two entered the house, and after a few words of greeting, Qin Shuhuai asked, "By the way, aren't Brother Zhibao and Brother Zhihu here?"

Zheng Zhilong said, "It's late at night, and they have gone back to bed." ”

Qin Shuhuai smiled, "Just left, right? Coincidentally, we met halfway." ”

Zheng Zhilong's face changed greatly, "This, this ......"

As soon as the words fell, I saw Zheng Zhihu and Zheng Zhibao walking in under the "accompaniment" of Hua Shen and Li Jingting.

Hua Shen and Li Jingting are quite polite, and they "hook up" with these two people, looking like old friends for many years.

It's just that Zheng Zhihu and Zheng Zhibao's faces are not so good-looking.

After Qin Shuhuai got Zheng Cai, he sent Li Jingting to sneak into Zheng's mansion to find out the news, wanting to hear what Zheng Zhilong was thinking now. Unexpectedly, Li Jingting came out not long after entering, saying that Zheng Zhibao and Zheng Zhihu were going to run. So Qin Shuhuai took Hua Shen and Li Jingting to ambush a wave on the road to the dock, and captured the Zheng Mansion that came after these two people - for them, the hundred or so guards brought by Zheng Zhibao and Zheng Zhihu were simply negligible.

The atmosphere in the room immediately became dull and eerie.

After being quiet for a while, Zheng Zhilong said in a deep voice, "I don't know what Grandpa Guo means? Where did the Zheng family offend Grandpa Guo, and asked Grandpa Guo to show it." ”

Qin Shuhuai said with a smile, "Where is General Zheng's words! It's too late for my father to admire General Zheng, so why don't you offend?"

Zheng Zhilong asked bluntly, "Who are those soldiers outside the door?"

Hua Shen immediately said, "General Zheng, don't you think too much?" As an important minister of the imperial court, isn't it the proper meaning of Grandpa Guo to have a pro-army to protect his safety when he goes out?"

Zheng Zhilong hurriedly smiled, "Yes, yes." That's natural. ”

Qin Shuhuai said again, "General Zheng, don't worry too much. My father is here to tell you the good news!"

Zheng Zhilong frowned and asked, "This...... Where does the joy come from?"

I saw Qin Shuhuai take out another thing from his sleeve and said, "Zheng Zhilong takes the order." ”

When Zheng Zhilong, Zheng Zhihu, Zheng Zhibao and others heard this, they immediately knelt down and said, "The ministers will take the order." ”

"Nan Anbo Zheng Zhilong is loyal and courageous, quite talented, especially fine sailors, foreign feelings, promoted to the assistant director of the General Administration of Customs of Daming, and appreciated the python robe. Immediately after receiving the order, there must be no mistakes. Chin!"
