Chapter 1484: Power Struggle

Fan Wencheng shook his head and said, "I'm more worried about Prince Azig of Ying, he is more ...... than Dolgon Licentious. ”

Hong Chengchou glanced at Fan Wencheng slightly, "Do you believe that Shen Zhiyuan is really loyal to the Qing Dynasty?" ”

"Letter?" Fan Wencheng sneered, "Believe him a ghost!" If he was to be believed, the old man really thought that Azig was a loyal servant. ”

Hong Chengchou laughed and said, "The hero sees the same thing. ”

Fan Wencheng sighed: "But what can you and I do about him?" When he first came to the capital, killing him was like stepping on an ant, but Dolgon took a fancy to him, and once he became a forehead, what could he do? Now it is 30,000 new troops in his hands, representing Dolbo's gratitude to Beijing...... He couldn't help it. ”

Hong Chengchou couldn't help but say hatefully: "Dolgon is to blame for this matter, knowing that Shen Zhiyuan is not credible, but he still ......." ”

"Maybe that's Dolgon's trick." Fan Wencheng sighed, "With Shen Zhiyuan, you can have a relationship with Wu Zheng in the south." ”

Hong Chengchou exclaimed: "You...... You mean, we can follow suit...... No, no, Brother Xiandou, you and I must not take this step, even if Wu Zheng promises not to kill us in the future, after losing power, you and I are still fish and meat to be slaughtered...... Don't be rash. ”

"Fart!" Fan Wencheng burst out foul language, "Although you and I have gained a lot of benefits from the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce in the past two years, it is also a serious exchange, and the silver can be earned, but you can't smash the pot for your own dinner for the silver...... What the old man means is that Dolgon took advantage of Shen Zhiyuan's secret contact with Wu Zheng, and took advantage of the threat of the Northern Expeditionary Army to transfer the Eight Banners out of Gyeonggi and calmly arrange the aftermath of the funeral, so that there is Dolbo's heir and feudal domain, so why can't we use this relationship to contain Dolbo and Azig? ”

Hong Chengchou frowned and thought about it, and arched his hand: "Please also ask Brother Xiandou for advice." ”

Fan Wencheng wiped his mustache left and right, and said: "Prince Ying only brought the flag army back to Beijing, and the original Xuzhou army is now stationed around the Daimyo's mansion, which does threaten the capital, but it also threatens Yanzhou, as long as the fight between Azig and Dolbo is provoked, then the danger of the capital can be ......solved." ”

"How to provoke the fight between Azig and Dolbo?"

Fan Wencheng smiled gloomily, "The emperor has decided to withdraw to Wu Sangui and other departments in the northwest, in your opinion, will these vassals and generals return to Beijing after hearing that Dolgon is dead and the court is showing signs of civil strife?" ”

"I don't think so, I should listen to the tune and not listen to the announcement, and stay in the northwest to wait for the follow-up situation."

"That's right, if Wu Sangui, Meng Qiaofang, Kakamu and other departments, the belonging of hundreds of thousands of troops are thrown out, how will Azig and Dol Bo react?"

Hong Chengchou was stunned for a moment, and then said excitedly: "Brother Xiandou is smart...... Instead of transferring hundreds of thousands of troops out of the control of the imperial court, it is better to use waste, causing Azig and Dolbo to turn against each other, so that the imperial court can sit back and relax...... High, indeed high! ”

Fan Wencheng shook his hand and said: "But there is a key point in this matter, now the queen mother wants to govern, and the emperor wants to govern in person, and the power vacancy left by Dolgon in the court has attracted countless people to covet...... The slightest mistake can be self-defeating. ”

Hong Chengchou nodded, and suddenly changed the topic: "I heard that Shen Zhiyuan went to see Prince Ying and Prince Zheng...... In this way, Dolbo's intention is also to form an alliance with the two parties, or at least to be safe. ”

Fan Wencheng shook his head and said: "Prince Zheng is his own person, and the old man believes that he will not secretly collude with the rebellious ministers and thieves to endanger the emperor...... It's just Prince Zheng...... It may be a chess piece to solve the current dilemma. ”

"This ...... I'm afraid it's inappropriate, right? Hong Chengchou was surprised, "You also said that Prince Zheng is his own ......." ”

"What's wrong with being loyal to the emperor?" Fan Wencheng solemnly interrupted, "If one day, Fan is needed to be loyal to you, so is it!" ”

Hong Chengchou said: "Brother Xiandou's words are deafening and admirable!" ”

"Add the title of uncle to Prince Zheng, so as to cut off Azig's evil thoughts." Fan Wencheng pondered, "Add Shen Zhiyuan the rank of Pingkou general, Azig really wants to do things in a hurry, with the cooperation of the Flag Army in Beijing and Shen Zhiyuan's new army, it will not be possible to forgive ......." ”

Hong Chengchou nodded and said: "This plan is very good, give two titles, in exchange for a piece of peace...... Value! It's just that the emperor, I'm afraid it's not easy to talk about it, I am looking forward to the pro-government, I just went to the regent of the imperial father, and then to the uncle ....... ”

Fan Wencheng said lightly: "The emperor is young, and it is the time when he needs assistance...... If you and I can't even convince the emperor of this, then aren't you and I blind all these years? What's the use of asking you and me for two bachelors? ”

Hong Chengchou smiled, "Brother Xiandou is reasonable. ”

At this time, someone outside the door reported, "Shen Zhiyuan, Doro's forehead, posted a post asking to see." ”

Hong Chengchou and Fan Wencheng looked at each other in shock.

Hong Chengchou smiled and said: "Say Cao Cao, Cao Cao will arrive, doesn't this indicate that Brother Xiandou is clever?" ”

Fan Wencheng laughed, and then shouted, "Please go to the main hall to serve tea." ”

……。

At this time, the battle between the two sides was in full swing in the Eastern Domain.

No, to be precise, almost one-sided battles.

The combined fleet of the Fanren relied on the range of its own gunwales to be far greater than that of the Zheng family's naval division, and from the beginning of the engagement, it finally became a fixed-point shooting of ships.

This has basically become a nightmare for the Zheng family's sailors.

In the naval battle, which lasted for two days and one night, Zheng Sen lost more than 60 capital ships and more than 300 fire attack ships.

The reason why the number of losses of the fire attack ships was more than five times that of the capital ships was due to the fixed point fire of the enemy ships.

This was originally Kerry? Thorne's most proud tactic in this battle, but in the subsequent naval battle, it became a breakthrough for Zheng Sen's counterattack.

The huge capital ship was moored in place, which really enhanced the accuracy of the shelling.

But this brought about the inability to maneuver, and when the main ships of the Zheng Family Naval Division were sunk one by one, the suicidal attack of the fire attack ships also became a nightmare for the combined fleet, and this attack made it impossible for the enemy to focus on targeting the main ships of the Zheng Family Naval Division, and the enemy needed to focus on these small ships.

Although these small boats can be overturned with a single shot, there are too many such boats.

Although the Zheng family sailor is full of "pirate culture", he does not lack the courage to work hard.

When the loss made Zheng Sen a little crazy, Zheng Sen did not hesitate to give the order and launched a desperate battle against the enemy.

And this way of fighting, does make Kerry? Thorne was very embarrassed, if he anchored to fight a sports battle, it would be difficult to ensure that in the process of movement, he would be approached by the main ship of the Zheng family's naval division and fought into a gunfire duel.

But if it doesn't move, the endless stream of fire attack ships almost makes the guns of your own capital ships unable to bombard the opponent's capital ships at all.

It is precisely for this reason that this naval battle with a huge disparity in strength has been dragged by Zheng Sen until now, and it is still fighting fiercely.

I have to say that the Zheng family sailor has its proud capital.
