In Zilharan's view, the rebel army was more like a headless fly, scurrying around.

Zilharang has no power to clear his own territory, so I am afraid that he will die earlier than the rebels.

However, if the walls were not cleared, the rebels could easily get food from the rich provinces and counties, and even all kinds of ordnance supplies from the cities.

It's not difficult, but it's really hard to kill Brother Harang.

But, starting now, it's different.

Zilharang keenly felt that it was different.

He found that the rebels were no longer attacking the county towns along the road.

He connected the complex routes of the rebels in the past ten days, which moved from north to south and east to west, and discovered a fact that could not be concealed, that is, the overall direction of the rebels was to the southeast.

Especially after the rebels arrived in Rugao, they turned to the southeast again.

This discovery allowed Zilharan to judge that the rebels still wanted to live, because the southeast was, the sea.

It's just that Zilharang is still hesitating, if he throws all the army into the encirclement and suppression, in case his judgment is wrong, this rebel army will be separated from the pursuit of the Qing army.

From there, the sea and the sky are wide, and it may even really rush to the north.

The final outcome of this rebel army deep into the hinterland has long been certain, but the harm and losses caused are uncertain.

Zilharang did not want to bury the rebels yet.

At this time, the will of the Qing court came, forcing Zilharang to make a desperate bet.

He marked out the overall direction of the rebel march and extended it.

In the end, there was only one conclusion - Haimen.

Zilharang quickly ordered, and the Qing army on Jiangxin Island attacked with all its troops and went straight to Haimen to block the attack.

……。

Contains a cool hall.

The six monarchs and ministers are playing right.

The cabinet of four people, and the royal history of Wang Yi.

Zhu Cihong's hand trembled with an urgent report from Hangzhou Mansion, "The enemy chieftain Duoduo has attacked Shaoxing and Jinhua on a large scale, and Zhenguo Gong has sent an urgent report, asking the imperial court to send reinforcements, can Zhu Aiqing have a way to deal with it?" ”

Chen Zilong immediately replied: "The Qing court reversed its word and broke its promise to restart the army, which is tolerable or unbearable. The minister thought that he should order the Xingguo Gongshui Division and the defenders of Zhenjiang Mansion to be careful to guard against the Qing army on the north bank, and at the same time send a strong force south to support Hangzhou Mansion. ”

Zhu Cihong's expression was immovable, noncommittal, he swept the other four and asked, "Can the three Aiqing agree with what Shoufu said?" ”

Qian Qianyi glanced at Chen Zilong, and sighed in his heart, this nerd.

He got up and said, "The minister thinks that the words of the first assistant are inappropriate. Zhenguo Gong has a total of 40,000 troops in Hangzhou Mansion, and the enemy chief Duoduo has only 40,000 enemies, and Duoduo was defeated by Zhenguo Gong before, no matter what, Zhenguo Gong should be safe to protect himself. Moreover, since the two sides have started a war, the safety of Gyeonggi is even more important. Shoufu said that the Xingguo Gongshui Division and the defenders of Zhenjiang Mansion were carefully guarded against the Qing army on the north bank to attack, and the minister agreed, but sent troops to Hangzhou Mansion...... You don't have to. ”

Qian Sule got up and said: "The minister thinks that what the first assistant said is the words of Lao Cheng to seek the country. Now that the Qing army on the north bank is encircling and suppressing the rebels of the water division, it is thought that they will not have the energy to cross the river to attack. Your Majesty, when sending reinforcements south, in case of accidents in Shaoxing and Jinhua, your lips will be cold and your teeth will be cold! ”

Du Yushi Wang Yi said: "The minister also agrees to send reinforcements south. ”

Xu Fuyuan glanced at Chen Zilong, and also got up and said, "The minister agrees with the policy of the first assistant." ”

Four to one, Qian Qianyi did not panic at all.

He confidently stated: "The princes are obviously overly worried, the Zhenguo Gong's troops are strong and talented, I heard that not long ago the four guards were named the Northern Expeditionary Army, and its intention is nothing more than to distinguish it from the army under the imperial court, if this matter is not in a war period, it can be convicted of rebellion." Your Majesty is broad-minded and has not offended Zhenguogong, but at this time, there is no need to send troops to reinforce it, right? ”

Chen Zilong frowned and reprimanded: "Ridiculous. As long as Wu Zheng is still the prince of our dynasty, Shaoxing and Jinhua are still the territory of our dynasty, and encounters a strong enemy, how can the imperial court not save it? On the basis of facts, how can merit and demerit be confused? What Qian Shangshu said is biased. ”

Qian Qianyi smiled silently, but just looked at Zhu Cihong.

With a soft "snap", Zhu Cihong slapped the fold on the imperial case and said loudly: "Of course reinforcements have to be sent!" Not only must they be sent, but they must also be sent to a powerful part. Lingdu commanded Liao Zhongping to select 5,000 elite divisions to reinforce Hangzhou Prefecture. ”

Everyone stood up and arched their hands and said, "Your Majesty Shengming! ”

Only Qian Qianyi had a vague smile on his lips.

Sure enough, Zhu Cihong then said: "Qian Shangshu stays, I want to hear about Qian Zhuang's preparations, Zhu Aiqing should retreat first." ”

There are only two people, Zhu Cihong and Qian Qianyi.

Zhu Cihong played with the jade paperweight on the imperial case and said: "Listening to Qian Shangshu's words, it seems that he has a deep prejudice against Zhenguo Gong?" But in my heart, the town of the country is a pillar of my dynasty and a loyal minister, and I regard him as an arm. Is Qian Shangshu too worried? ”

Qian Qianyi bowed and said: "Whether the Zhenguo Gong is a loyal minister or not, the minister does not need to judge, and he has no right to judge, but the military and financial resources owned by the Zhenguo Gong have threatened His Majesty and the imperial power, as His Majesty's courtier, the minister has to speak boldly." ”

"Oh?" Zhu Cihong raised his eyebrows and said, "Then according to Qian Shangshu's opinion, how should I deal with it?" To be bold enough, Aiqing's previous advice on recovering commercial taxes and preparing for a money bank is very much in line with me. ”

Qian Qianyi said: "The gains and losses of Shaoxing and Jinhua are good for the imperial court, and they are under the control of the Zhenguo Gong, and even the taxes are not within the scope of the imperial court. ”

Speaking of this, Qian Qianyi secretly glanced at Zhu Cihong, what he said was a bit excessive, but in fact, Qian Qianyi was testing Zhu Cihong's bottom line.

As an emperor who wants to recover the lost territory and revive the Ming Dynasty, how can he agree with the argument that the territory is gratifying, and it is not sad if it is lost.

But Zhu Cihong's face was blank, and he couldn't see any joy, anger or sorrow.

So Qian Qianyi said boldly: "Duoduo attacked Shaoxing and Jinhua on a large scale, Wu Zheng naturally had to go all out, according to the minister's view, Duoduo wanted to occupy Shaoxing and Jinhua with 40,000 horses, it was really not easy." But if the two strong compete for each other, they will lose both, so that by borrowing the hand of the Qing army and weakening the strength of Wu Zheng, the court can be at ease, and Your Majesty can also be at ease. ”

"Ridiculous." Zhu Cihong finally spoke, "I have already ordered Liao Zhongping to send troops to rescue, how can I go back on my word?" ”

When he heard the word absurd, Qian Qianyi was really surprised, but when he heard the latter sentence, Qian Qianyi was relieved.

"Your Majesty, the troops are naturally going to be sent, but Your Majesty did not specify when to send troops, according to the minister's opinion, our dynasty needs to guard against the Qing army in Jiangbei to take the opportunity to attack, and it is necessary to strengthen the defense of the capital, and there is also a shortage of food, grass and ordnance...... It may take a few days at night to send troops, right? ”
