"Did the Tartars come to Quanzhou again after killing the King of Min?" Cai Wei asked.

Qin Fei shook his head, "In fact, when the Tartars saw that Qin Jian, the king of Fujian, had been killed, and the Fujian naval army led by Zheng Feihuang had also surrendered to them, and Qin Hai, the king of Lu, was also in the hands of Zheng Feihuang's nephew Zheng Di, so he thought it was done, and the general Bo Luo led the main force of the Jin soldiers back to Yanjing first, leaving only a few Jin soldiers to garrison Fujian. ”

Cai Wei's eyes lit up, but after thinking about it, the look in her eyes dimmed again.

Qin Fei knew what she was thinking, and she nodded her forehead and said, "What are you thinking about?" You can think of it, can I not think about it? Although Fujian has no main force of gold soldiers, if we don't have enough strength, we will take back the whole province of Fujian from the Tartars for a while, and wait for people to send elite soldiers to attack, and we have to be taken away again, I am not one of those fools, I will not do this kind of loss-making business! ”

"Who did that? Are you so angry? Cai Wei asked him.

"Yunnan's Empress Dowager Sun relied on Zhang Jinzhong of Sichuan to block her in front of the Tartars, and she was still pinching each other with King Gui Qin Lang, and she couldn't take care of Fujian. However, Zheng Di did not listen to his uncle Zheng Feihuang's words, not only did he not sacrifice the surrender of King Lu to the Tartars, but instead served King Lu as the main and conquered several counties along the coast of Fujian from the sea. ”

"I think it's because Qin Hai was wandering on the sea, he suffered some hardships and gained some knowledge, and then he was regarded as a prisoner, and he finally knew how to do some serious things. He recruited talents, widely distributed articles, and called on the gentry from all over the country to rise up and create a great cause together. In just a few months, Jianning Prefecture, Funing Prefecture, Xinghua City and other places, as well as 27 counties in three prefectures and one prefecture in northeastern Fujian were recovered by the Qin army. In order to capture Fuzhou as much as possible, Zhu Hai even went to Min'an Town outside Fuzhou City to direct the siege, and finally took Fuzhou City. ”

"I saw that he finally looked like a prince and grandson this time, as if he was going to do something serious, so I also sent him a letter, planning to join forces with him, but he was busy pinching Zheng Di and didn't have time to deal with me at all."

Cai Wei sighed, "Is there another infighting on King Lu's side?" "For Yan Qin, these officials and gentlemen only know the virtue of fighting in the nest, she has long been used to it.

She suddenly remembered An Yuanbo's mansion, when she lived in that mansion before she got married, the old ladies in that mansion were not all like this. In the face of the decline of the family, one by one is not thinking about how to work hard, relying on their own ability to fight for a career, re-prop up the Bofu, and then earn a family business, but the hollowed out brothers fight back and forth, thinking about how to get more ancestral property from the family, and it is best to grab all the family titles.

She also knew that not only Uncle Anyuan's Mansion was the case, whether it was the other high-ranking nobles' families in the capital, or the rich people who had some surplus money, whenever it came to the interests of family property, it was all a variety of open and secret battles.

"The family is the smallest country, and the country is tens of millions", is it when a person is used to fighting for interests and brothers in the family since childhood, then when he grows up to be an official, he will naturally fight with his peers in the officialdom for power.

Qin Fei couldn't see her frowning, caressed her eyebrows and said: "Then Zheng Di saw that he had taken Fujian, and he didn't want to quickly expand the results of the battle, but wanted to exclude dissidents and monopolize power, and successively forced and killed Qin Hai's three useful ministers, Xiong Rulin, a scholar, and Zheng Zunqian, Yixing, and even Qian Sule, the secretary of the military department, was forced to death by him, but the army's heart was shaken, and when the Jin people sent elite cavalry south to Fujian, they were defeated, and all the previously recovered prefectures and counties were taken by the Tartars. ”

"What's even more annoying is that I wanted to send troops to help Qin Hai, but this idiot was afraid that I was digging a pit for him, so he took my letter and asked his subordinates all kinds of questions, but he didn't give me an answer for a long time, but drove the soldiers I sent back. As a result, in the end, he himself was driven to the sea by the Tartars, because he leaked my news, and as soon as the Jin people heard that the king of Linchuan of Daqin was hiding in Zheng Yihu's fleet in Quanzhou, they immediately transferred all the elite soldiers of Fujian to Quanzhou to encircle and suppress me. ”

"What's even more hateful is that Zheng Di actually wanted to take Quanzhou first, although I won against him and took in most of his soldiers, but I was still unhappy. A new army that his grandfather and I came to train so easily, and I haven't fought the Tartars yet, but I fought with my own people first! ”

Cai Wei hurriedly rubbed his chest and said, "Your Highness, don't be angry, hurry up and tell me about the current situation in Quanzhou City." How many people do we have on hand? Are there any other states and counties in addition to Quanzhou? ”

"There are not many people, there are only 40,000 in total, except for Quanzhou, and then Zhangzhou."

"Obviously, there is still Yingzhou Island, why did Your Highness forget?" Cai Wei reminded her.

Qin Fei smiled and poured her a cup of tea: "Yes, we still have Yingzhou Island, how can I forget it, if we can't beat the Tartars, let's make a boat to Yingzhou Island first, that island is the easiest to defend and difficult to attack." ”

Cai Wei didn't care about drinking tea, so she said first: "How can you not beat the Tartar?" Let's husband and wife are of the same heart, and their profits are broken! ”

Qin Fei wanted to say a few more ridiculous words as usual, but looking at Cai Wei's shiny and extremely dependent eyes, he suddenly didn't want to pretend anymore, he wanted to remove the strong confidence and calm that he had shown in front of everyone during the day.

Because no matter how strong he is, he is still a man, and men will have some sudden vulnerability at some point.

He suddenly wondered if he was no longer an omnipotent and powerful man in front of Cai Wei who could always protect her from harm, would she still look at him with such sparkling eyes and such incomparable dependence?

"Ah Wei, listen to me." He put his hands on her shoulders, "You and I both understand that in the face of absolute strength, no matter how wise our husband and wife are, it is impossible to counterattack." Although there are many classic battles in the history books in which fewer people win more, they are all because the side that seems to be strong has some hidden huge weaknesses, and the side with fewer people has found out. ”

"However, our current situation is that the Jin people are not only strong and strong, but their commander is also a capable man who is good at fighting, and he governs the army rigorously, and there is no loophole for us to take advantage of. Although this person has been defeated by our husband and wife twice before, but this time, maybe he can really be ashamed. ”

"Are you saying that Hao Duo also came to Quanzhou, and he is the boss of the Jin people?"

"Originally, it was Boluo, but as soon as Hao Duo heard that this king was also in Quanzhou, he took the initiative to ask Ying, saying that he was going to capture me alive in Quanzhou, so as to repay him for being injured by my tricks in Jinling City."

"Actually, I was the one who blew him up, and he should come to me for revenge if he has the ability, right?" Cai Wei muttered.

Qin Fei bit her lip, "If your wife and husband pay her debts, it's the same if he comes to me to settle accounts?" ”

Cai Wei twisted his waist fiercely and said, "Where do we owe him a debt?" Obviously, they invaded our land, killed our people, and owed us a lot of blood debt, but I only injured him, and I couldn't even reach the interest! ”

"The winner is king, and the loser is the villain! If we lose this time, the history books will only praise the great achievements of the victors. ”

Although he was not wrong in what he said, it was the first time for Cai Wei to see Qin Fei, who was not arrogant and a little depressed, and couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

"Ah Fei, you have always been full of confidence, I have never seen you like this, ...... like this"

"This doesn't grow your own ambition, but grows the prestige of others, isn't it?"

Qin Fei lowered his head and rubbed the corners of his forehead and said, "Maybe it's because I really don't have a bottom in my heart this time!" Originally, I didn't pay attention to Bolo's 50,000 army, but just when I saw that I could defeat Bolo and relieve the siege of Quanzhou, the 50,000 army led by Hao Duo suddenly fell from the sky. I didn't even know the news that he led the troops, and I had to regain control of Quanzhou by 10,000 horses. ”

"Moreover," Qin Fei whispered about their other disadvantage, "Hao Duo thinks that he hates us very much, and this time it is imperative for us to win, not only did he besiege Quanzhou City on land, but he actually sent dozens of warships to stop outside the harbor in Quanzhou to prevent us from escaping from the sea." ”

Cai Wei remembered Qin Fei's expression when she mentioned Yingzhou Island earlier, and hurriedly asked, "Could it be that Yingzhou Island was also taken away by him?" ”

"Not yet! However, it was also surrounded by Tartar warships. ”

Cai Wei asked about the number of golden warships, thought for a while, and said, "That's not right! We have far twice as many warships as the Tartars, and they are well-trained, so how can we not even beat the newly built navy of the Tartars? ”

"Because I let Zheng Yihu go to sea again and took three-quarters of the warships with me. At that time, Fujian was recovered by the Qin Sea, and the shape was very good, so I ordered him to go to the Oriental countries to do maritime business again. ”

"Then why did you let him go with so many warships?"

"Sure enough, nothing can escape your eyes, because what he is doing this time is not to trade goods with the countries of the East, but to destroy all the twenty or so strongholds of the East Indian Company in the East Ocean, which is owned by the Nilans. Of course, the main thing is to grab the warships of the Nilans. It's too slow for us to build our own ships and artillery, and it's more convenient and faster to rob foreign devils, and they're not good people anyway. ”

"But what I didn't expect was that Fujian would be taken away by the Tartars so soon, and Zheng Yihu did not return. I had expected him to be back on the last day of June. I've been waiting from morning to night today, and until now, I haven't heard anything at all. ”

Cai Wei looked at the leak, it was already past the hour, and it was already the first day of July.
