Wu Zheng stood up and looked at the sea silently.

Chen Sheng got up and stood there, not daring to alarm Wu Zheng.

After a while, Wu Zheng turned around and said, "Find an opportunity to send someone to meet Fang Guoan privately and probe his tone." ”

"What do you mean, to recruit him? But he ....... ”

Wu Zheng raised his hand and stopped Chen Sheng from continuing to say, "I know what you want to say? But now that I am around me and under the rule of the imperial court, are there still few people who have surrendered to the Qing Dynasty anyway? The power of the imperial court was too small, and every time a soldier was lost, it was equivalent to a point stronger for the Qing army. Being able to recover Shaoxing Mansion without bloodshed is beneficial to the country and me. Moreover, if Fang Guoan really did it anyway, it would have a huge exemplary effect on the generals who had already surrendered to the Qing court. Uniting all those who can be united to resist the Qing Dynasty together is also the real purpose of my insistence on going south to reinforce the Longwu Dynasty this time. ”

Chen Sheng nodded silently.

"Go back, defend Lihai well, according to my judgment, the time to recover Shaoxing Mansion and connect with Hangzhou should not be too far."

"Subordinates obey! Please take care! ”

……。

The sea was a mess, with wreckage, broken wood and, of course, corpses.

Fortunately, the soldiers tried their best to rescue those who fell into the water, and most of the warships were surrendered, so the casualties of the Zhoushan Naval Division were not very large.

However, the morale of the officers and men of the Navy Division was undoubtedly extremely low.

Wu Zheng announced that he would only pursue the evil and not punish him, claiming that Huang Binqing was dead, and that as long as the soldiers were loyal to the imperial court, the imperial court would not be in the past, so as to calm the army's heart.

After a short period of pacification, Wu Zheng ordered all the staff to return to Hong Kong.

For a time, the waterways in Hangzhou Bay were congested.

Countless sailors came ashore, and the entire coastline was full of people.

As soon as he landed on the shore, Wu Zheng was blocked on the shore by Zodiac Zhou.

"Zhen Guogong, how is the battle going? Huang heard that Huang Binqing died? ”

Wu Zheng nodded and said, "Yes." He refused to return. Bengong ordered the sinking of his ship. ”

Huang Daozhou was stunned, and said, "It's so easy...... The time of the day, which ...... How is this possible? ”

Wu Zheng turned around and beckoned to Zhang Mingzhen behind him.

Zhang Mingzhen took the dynasty forward first, first bowed to Wu Zheng, and then saluted Huang Daozhou, "The last general has seen Lord Shangshu." ”

Huang Dao was stunned, "But General Zhang and General Wang?" ”

"It's the last general."

"What the hell is going on?" Huang Daozhou asked sharply, he suddenly came back to his senses, this peaceful rebellion ended so quickly, I am afraid it has a great relationship with these two people.

Zhang Mingzhen glanced at Wu Zheng, and Wu Zheng bowed slightly.

Zhang Mingzhen said: "The last general was ordered by the Duke of Zhenguo to persuade General Wang to put things right, and now the base camp of the Zhoushan Water Division has all been attached to the imperial court. ”

"The Imperial Court? Which court? Huang Daozhou's voice was cracked, "You are the general of my Longwu Dynasty, why are you under the orders of the Zhenguo Gong of the Qingtai Dynasty?" ”

Zhang Mingzhen calmly looked directly at Huang Daozhou, "Hui Shangshu said, the last general was an official of the Qingtai Dynasty, and he was originally ordered by Lord Zhang, the secretary of the Ministry of War, to assist and supervise Huang Binqing. It's just that Huang Binqing was greedy for officials and voted for the Longwu Dynasty. ”

"You ......."

Wu Zheng said at the right time: "Lord Huang calmed his anger and pacified Huang Binqing, this is a good thing, it is in line with Lord Huang's mission here, now that the Zhoushan Water Master has been ordered by this public, our army will be able to go south in a few days, why should Lord Huang make extraneous branches?" ”

Huang Daozhou glanced at Wu Zheng with complicated eyes, "Zhenguo Gong is a good means, presumably when you were in Yingtianfu, you already had a comprehensive plan to annex the Zhoushan Water Division, it is false to go south to reinforce Fujian, and it is true to annex the Water Division...... Take advantage of the fire to rob and fall into the well, aren't you afraid of the cold teeth of the world? ”

Wu Zheng said calmly: "This duke does not deny that he does have the idea of annexing Zhoushan Shui Shi. However, when Ying Tianfu decided to aid the south, he did not know the news of General Zhang's coming to vote. This is one of them, as for the suspicion of taking advantage of the fire to rob, my father admits that the accusation of falling into the well, but Lord Huang wronged Wu Zheng. ”

Carrying Zhang Mingzhen, Wu Zheng said: "In fact, Lord Huang also understands in his heart that the Zhoushan Water Master has no longer obeyed the dispatch, and the Longwu Dynasty has lost control over the Zhoushan Water Division. Huang Binqing may not have surrendered to the Manchu Qing at this time, but the sailor is different from the army, it has no supply capacity, and if it loses land, it is duckweed, once it is surrounded on both sides, it can only surrender, Wu Zheng never thinks that Huang Binqing can serve the imperial court and sink the ship to martyr the order. But if the Zhoushan Water Division falls under the control of the Qing army, then it will be a catastrophe for both the Longwu Dynasty and our dynasty. Now in the hands of this father, although there is a suspicion of taking advantage of the fire to rob, but this father will never use force against Fujian, the lesser of two evils, this truth should be understood by Lord Huang. ”

Huang Daozhou looked at Wu Zheng, whose face did not change, and was so angry that he couldn't speak.

Indeed, when Yingtianfu Fengtian Temple, Huang Daozhou should promise that as long as the chaos is quelled and Wu Zheng agrees to the southern aid, the Longwu Dynasty can acquiesce to the Qingtai Dynasty's control of the Zhoushan Water Division.

But the premise of this matter is that the Zhoushan Master has completely lost control.

But now, it is obvious that the Zhoushan Water Division is not completely out of control, at least like Zhang Mingzhen, Wang Chaoxian, and the countless officers and soldiers of the Navy Division, their hearts are still towards the imperial court, and they have surrendered, almost as a system.

And Wu Zheng took over the Zhoushan Water Division almost without casualties, and there was no bloody battle at all.

This made Zodiac Zhou feel a kind of depression that was knocked out of his teeth and swallowed in his stomach.

But he also knows that the times are strong, and he has to ask Wu Zheng, not the time to turn his face.

Staring at Wu Zheng, Huang Daozhou said in a deep voice: "Since Zhenguo Gong has fulfilled his wish, what about the promise to send troops?" ”

Wu Zheng replied: "Lord Huang rest assured, it will be three days if it is fast, and five days if it is slow, and when the reorganization of the sailors is completed, the army will go directly from Hangzhou Bay to the south to help!" ”

Huang Daozhou snorted, raised his hand sideways, and arched, "Wangzhenguo is trustworthy." Leave! ”

After saying that, he walked away without looking back.

Zhang Mingzhen was a little uneasy, and asked softly, "Is it something bad for the last general?" ”

Wu Zheng looked at Nei Dao Zhou's back, shook his head and said, "The prejudice is deep, and it can't be relieved in a short time." Oh yes...... He also introduced General Wang for his father. ”

Zhang Mingzhen hurriedly pulled Wang Chaoxian first, "This is the Duke of Zhenguo." ”

"The last general dynasty saw the prince of Zhenguo first."

Looking at this man with a full face and almost the same height as himself, Wu Zhengzhan smiled and said: "General Wang can set things right in time, and he is really a masterpiece." Now in the Zhoushan camp, can the soldiers live in peace? ”

Wang Chaoxian said with a smile: "Zhenguo Gong rest assured, the people stationed in the camp are all the old subordinates of the last general, and they have not been trusted by Huang Binqing these days, and they have been suppressed." Now it is natural to be loyal to the town and the country. ”

"No, it should be loyal to the prison country and the imperial court!" Wu Zheng corrected lightly.
