In fact, what Cai Wei is busy with every day, Qin Fei is no matter how busy he is, he knows everything well, but he is afraid that Cai Wei will be bored, and second, he only spends two hours of her brain every day to see her, and third, he knows that improving firearms has always been a knot in Cai Wei's heart, so he also let her go, and even invited Chen Hejie, the director of the Artillery Construction Division, to discuss with them every once in a while.

He repeatedly instructed Imperial Physician Miao to take care of her body, and gave her different medicinal foods to replenish her body at every meal.

Imperial Physician Miao nodded and agreed, but what came out was two lists of medicinal diets, saying that the princess had also instructed him to do so, forcing Qin Fei to also take medicinal diets every day to replenish his body.

In fact, Cai Wei didn't tell him, he would definitely take good care of Qin Fei's body, and he knew all the movements of the situation in the country. Whether it is King Min and King Gui who have usurped to claim the title of emperor, King Lu who surrendered to thieves, King Lu who fled, or Emperor Lin De who is still alive, in his opinion, all of them are useless in the Great Qin State.

Those who can turn the tide in the fall, support the general of the building, and drive away the Tartars and Zhongxing Daqin except for Qin Fei, the king of Linchuan in front of him, will not think about it as a second person.

But in June, even Imperial Physician Miao began to take care of Qin Fei, because the situation Qin Fei was facing at this time was unprecedentedly sinister.

Cai Wei naturally sensed something. On this day, she did not wait in the room for Qin Fei to come back to eat with her as usual, but personally packed the food in the food box and carried it to Qin Fei's study.

When the husband and wife finished dinner, rinsed their mouths, and gossiped a few words, before Cai Wei could figure out how to ask him, Qin Fei had already taken the initiative to open his mouth. "Whatever you want to ask, just ask, no matter what you ask, I will never hide it from you."

Cai Wei was a little unconvinced, "Is this true? ”

Qin Fei smiled bitterly, "Our husband and wife always have the same mind, but if I want to hide it, can I hide it from you?" ”

Cai Wei thought about it, this is also true, although she was dissatisfied with Qin Fei no longer letting her worry about state affairs, but the reason why she didn't pester him to break the casserole and ask the end was because she could feel that no matter how good or bad the situation was, it was always within Qin Fei's expectations, and he had his own way to deal with it.

But this time, she felt that something was wrong, it seemed that the current situation was beyond Qin Fei's control, and even he was not sure that he could deal with it.

Cai Wei thought for a while and said, "Can you tell me from the beginning?" ”

Qin Fei naturally knew what she meant from the beginning, so he said, "Okay!" ”

"When you were in Zhejiang, you only knew that King Lu was called the emperor, and King Lu was in charge of the country, in fact, in those days, Qin Jian, the king of Min in Fuzhou, and Qin Lang, the king of Gui, in Nanning, also claimed to be the emperor, one was called Longwu, and the other was called Yongli. In just a few days, the only remaining half of Yan Qin's country appeared in one go, three emperors and one prison country! ”

Then a few days later, news came from Yunnan, saying that Emperor Linde, Empress Dowager Sun and King Yingchuan were all fine, and ordered the few arrogant vassal kings to quickly go to the emperor and ask for guilt. But with the imperial robe, who cares about him? What those vassal kings thought in their hearts was nothing more than to see who could have the last laugh, drive away the Tartars, and then unify the thousands of miles of Great Qin, then whose emperor would be. ”

But they only knew that they were dreaming of being emperors, and they didn't see recruiting troops and preparing for war, but they were busy choosing a lot of beautiful women to be concubines. Among these few, Qin Jian, the king of Fujian, is a good one, he is supported by God, he is still frugal, he reads day and night, and he wants to make a difference, but unfortunately he has no real power, and the military power is controlled by He Tengjiao and Zheng Feihuang, but he is a puppet and has no heart. ”

Cai Wei said in her heart, in fact, at this time, if these people can temporarily put the emperor aside, everyone will join hands to fight against Jin, but they can echo the east and west, connect with each other, and build a long defense line from the southwest to the southeast, which will greatly consume the combat power and supplies of the Tartars. It's a pity that if the Yanchun people could be sincere and united, then the Tartar Emperor would not have come up with such a ghost idea.

Sure enough, Qin Fei also said: "At that time, we still had the seven provinces of Hunan, Liangguang, Jiangxi, Sichuan, and Yunnan and Guizhou in our hands, although most of them were occupied by the Tartars, but if they were managed properly, they might not be able to turn the tables." He also knew that it would take a lot of effort to take down these seven provinces, so in order to save some effort for himself, he played such a play, and as a result, those fools really forgot about the current enemy as he expected, and instead fought in the nest first. ”

"Although I sent a letter to the third brother asking him to try his best to dissuade the dispute between the walls in the imperial family, the old demon woman of the Empress Dowager Sun just didn't listen to the persuasion and had to send troops to crusade against Qin Lang, the king of Gui, who was closest to Yunnan. Although those arrogant vassal kings did not dare to make a move against Emperor Lin De first, they were really beaten, but they would not be arrested, so Yunnan and Guangxi first fought in the same room. ”

"King Lu of Hangzhou originally wanted to crusade against King Lu, but unfortunately he didn't even gather his soldiers and horses, and the iron hooves of the Tartars rushed to his Yongjin Gate first. As soon as he heard that the surrender treatment given to him by the Tartars was not bad, he threw out the general army Fang Guoan, who persuaded him to retreat to the sea to reorganize his troops and fight again, and sent people to send envoys to welcome him and ask the Jin people to attack his camp. When Fang Guoan and the general Wang Qingfu and others fought with the Jin people under the Yongjin Gate, Qin Shu, a slut, actually ordered people to sprinkle wine and food from the city to pay the Jin soldiers. was so angry that all the soldiers under the city abandoned the city and threw Qin Hai, the king of Lu, to the east."

But after Fang and Wang arrived in eastern Zhejiang, they immediately took over the original battalion soldiers and guards in eastern Zhejiang, claiming to be regular soldiers, squeezing out the original few volunteers under Qin Hai, and supporting the army with self-respect. Ignoring Qin Hai's opposition, he arbitrarily distributed more than 600,000 yuan of grain to the prefectures and counties in eastern Zhejiang every year, and as a result, the volunteer teachers in eastern Zhejiang were cut off from the source of food and salary, and most of them dispersed, and in the end, even the pro-military camp directly under the control of Zhang Guowei, a university supervisor, was only a few hundred people. ”

"So within a few months, the soldiers under King Lu Qin Hai were only tens of thousands of people in the hands of Fang and Wang, and he didn't want to quickly take back the military power from these two people, but only cared about pinching each other with Qin Jian, the king of Fujian, and the two of them rushed to add officials to each other's officials and dig each other's corners."

As a result, as soon as the Tartars hit Shaoxing, Fang Guoan suffered a defeat, and as soon as he surrendered, he had no choice but to flee to the sea, and his family members were arrested by the Jin people, and asked him to shave his hair and surrender, but he scolded him. Although Qin Hai's brain is not as good as that of a shipwright, he is completely inadequate and planning for great things, but compared to Qin Shulai, he still has some backbone. ”

"What about Qin Jian, the king of Fujian?" Cai Wei asked.

"He-" Qin Fei paused before saying, "He's a bit of a pity." ”

"Ah Wei, since I arrived in Quanzhou, I have never revealed my identity, at first because you were defending the city in Jinling under my name, and later because I knew the tricks of the Tartar Emperor, I didn't want to let another person from the Great Qin clan who was qualified to ascend to the throne of God. Later, he didn't want to expose his identity and was forced by Empress Dowager Sun to beat his own clan brothers. ”

"But although I never announced my identity to the world, I quietly wrote to Qin Jian to know. Because he finally knows the literature and ink, and has the ambition of revival. Although he will also engage in some small actions in the nest, he does not drink and have fun, nor is he good at sex with dogs and horses, and he has no view of employing people. didn't want to be comfortable, couldn't get used to Zheng Feihuang's passive slackness, regardless of his own safety, left Fuzhou, which was still safe, and ran to Ganzhou, Jiangxi. ”

Cai Wei listened and said: "It seems that this King of Fujian is really insightful, Ganzhou is in the upper reaches, and Nanchang occupied by the Tartars cannot be attacked on the back, and Ganzhou is Chu on the left, Fujian and Zhejiang on the right, and Dongyue on the back, which is enough to control three sides, and it is a strategic place." ”

"Not bad!" Qin Fei said: "If Jiangxi succeeds in using troops and the situation is stable, it can connect Hunan He Teng's Jiaobu in the west, Fujian's Zheng Fei and Huang Ministries in the east, and Guangdong in the south, so as to achieve the effect of nearby command." If we get Jiangxi, then our army will be headed by eastern Zhejiang, Jiangxi will be the belly, and Hunan, Guangxi, and Yunnan and Guizhou will be the tail, just like a snake in the mountains. ”

Cai Wei said: "If a general with heavy troops moves Wuchang from the upper reaches and destroys the defenders with few Tartars, then the southeast half of the wall can almost recover in one go, even if the battle in Jiangxi is unfavorable, the king of Min can also move west to Hunan and south to Guangdong." Just ......"

Qin Fei glanced at her and sighed: "I was also so worried back then, I was afraid that the Tartars would also see the importance of Ganzhou and send troops to attack, those generals and soldiers of Great Qin are virtuous in the face of the Tartars, I know very well, they are both incompetent and unwilling to rescue each other." That's why I persuaded him that if He Tengjiao, the governor of Huguang, didn't really want him to go to Jiangxi, it would be safer for him to stay in Fuzhou first. ”

But he replied that he had enough of being Zheng Feihuang's puppet doll in Fuzhou, and he no longer wanted to be at his mercy, and was determined to go to Ganzhou. Zheng Feihuang neither stopped him, nor sent troops to guard him, but he only walked halfway to the road, because the commander of Ganzhou made a mistake, He Tengjiao sat back and did not help, and as a result, Ganzhou was lost. When Qin Jian got the news and wanted to rush to Fuzhou, there was another bad news, Zheng Feihuang had surrendered to the Tartars. He fled to Tingzhou in a hurry, but was overtaken by the light cavalry of the Tartars, and the whole family died in the city of Tingzhou, along with his eldest son, who had just been born for a few days. ”

It was obviously a June day, but Cai Wei suddenly felt a little chill on her body, and subconsciously snuggled into Qin Fei's arms and hugged him tightly. Without saying a word, Qin Fei stretched out his arms and encircled her in his arms, and also hugged her tightly. The two hugged each other so tightly, as if this was the only way to resist the cruel situation and reality.

The husband and wife were silent under the light for a long time, and Cai Wei finally mustered up the courage to ask again: "Then, what happened later?" ”
