Zheng Chenggong showed a panicked look, and hurriedly said respectfully: "Your Majesty just orders." ”

"I have just received a report that Shi Lang once again led his troops to attack the coastal area of Ningbo. More than a dozen villages were burned down by him. This is simply challenging my bottom line. ”

Zhu Youlang's previous attitude was to recover Nanzhili first, and then attack Zhejiang.

But Shi Lang was so provocative, he stepped on Zhu Youlang's face, if Zhu Youlang didn't respond, what would the ministers think? What will the people of the Ming Dynasty think?

He came to Zheng Chenggong to discuss the specific details.

Zheng Chenggong was obviously a little surprised, and then he said angrily: "This thief has repeatedly jumped sideways, showing that the Ming court is like nothing, and the ministers ask to lead the troops to conscript." ”

Zhu Youlang was very satisfied with Zheng Chenggong's attitude.

Zheng Chenggong brought this up by himself, so Zhu Youlang didn't need to mention it again.

"How many troops did King Chung decide to lead to attack?"

"Back to Your Majesty, 50,000 sailors are enough."

Zheng Chenggong was actually able to mobilize 70,000 or 80,000 sailors, but he couldn't transfer all the troops, and he had to leave 20,000 or 30,000 to guard his home.

After all, Chongming Island has just been recovered, and in case the Tartars have the idea of attacking the Yangtze River again, they still have to have some manpower to garrison.

Zhu Youlang nodded, choosing to believe Zheng Chenggong's judgment.

At least at the level of water warfare, Zheng Chenggong knows that there should be more than him.

Zhu Youlang is not a leader who has to meddle in every detail, he has always adhered to the concept of professional people doing professional things.

Since he chose to believe in Zheng Chenggong, he would let Zheng Chenggong do it.

"I'll see you off myself."

Zhu Youlang said lightly: "I hope that King Zhong will win a complete victory, exterminate the captives, and return victorious as soon as possible." ”

Zheng Chenggong hugged his fists excitedly and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty." ”

...

...

said that Zheng Chenggong returned to the mansion after leaving the palace.

According to the current rules, he had to wait for the official formalities of the Ministry of War before he could transfer troops to the army.

This will be a little unaccustomed at first, but Zheng Chenggong also knows that this will become the norm in the future.

After all, the imperial court has the rules of the imperial court, and it is impossible to let a few warlord generals call for wind and rain.

As soon as he returned to the mansion, Zheng Chenggong told his son Zheng Jing the good news.

There is a way to fight tiger brothers, father and son soldiers.

This time, Zheng Chenggong planned to bring Zheng Jing to the battle.

After a period of training, Zheng Chenggong found that Zheng Jing's ability to deal with internal work and other aspects has been significantly improved. Zheng Jing has done a great job in staying in Nanjing several times.

But to become a good general and become his successor to Zheng Chenggong, these are not enough.

If you don't personally lead the troops to go out on the battle, how can you grow in the last big war?

During the Battle of Denglai, Zheng Jing only led a partial division after all, and the size and strength of the army were insufficient.

And Gan Hui is not good at saying something to Zheng Jingming.

In this case, Zheng Jing's improvement is really limited.

Now that such a good opportunity is in front of him, Zheng Chenggong will certainly not miss it.

He wants to make Zheng Jing grow rapidly through his words and deeds.

After all, the future of the Ming Dynasty is Zheng Jing's death, and when these old guys retire and die, the young people will be able to come up.

"Father, are you saying that the Son of Heaven has ordered you to lead the army to encircle and suppress Shi Lang?"

Zheng Jing also looked very excited. These days, he is suffocated in Nanjing City, and he has long wanted to go out to breathe.

"The Son of Heaven has already made a decree, and the official will will soon come down. The father can finally use his own hands to kill the thief. How about you, would you like to go with your father? ”

Zheng Jing nodded hurriedly and said, "The child is willing to swear to follow his father's side." ”

Zheng Chenggong nodded with satisfaction when he saw this.

In fact, he asked this question and did not ask Zheng Jing's opinion.

"When the grain, grass and fresh water are ready, we will go on the expedition as soon as the will of the imperial court comes!"

Zheng Chenggong waited for so long and finally waited for this opportunity.

Shi Lang, this king has put up with you for a long time.

This time, let's count the old and new hatreds together!

...

...

Taizhou Mansion.

After Lang Tingzuo learned that Shi Lang took the initiative to lead his troops to attack the coastal area of Ningbo Prefecture, he was furious.

Isn't this equivalent to leading the Ming army to Taizhou?

lived a comfortable life, but it was completely broken by Shi Lang's rash moves, and no one could bear it.

In fact, Lang Tingzuo has been watching the situation, and he must not be able to wait and see if he is so fooled by Shi Lang.

In this case, if the Ming army does not take the initiative to attack, it will be really hell.

In general, the strength of the Qing army in Zhejiang is still there, and the total strength is still 780,000, known as 100,000.

There were also several hundred naval warships. It's just that the control of this part has always been in Shi Lang's hands.

Lang Tingzuo is only the commander-in-chief in name, and he cannot interfere in many aspects.

Although Lang Tingzuo is disgusted by Shi Lang now, if he really wants to fight with the Ming army, Shi Lang is impossible for Lang Tingzuo to bypass no matter what.

Lang Tingzuo calmed down and ordered the people in the mansion to carefully pick up the broken teacup he had thrown away, and then went to ask Shi Lang to come over to the mansion.

Alas, he was forced to the road of war by Shi Lang Shengsheng, and now Lang Tingzuo has no choice at all.

said that Shi Lang was so proud when he learned that Lang Tingzuo invited him to the mansion.

At the beginning, Shi Lang took the initiative to fight, and Lang Tingzuo was there to play Tai Chi and push around, which really made Shi Lang disgusting enough.

came and did not be rude, Shi Lang also disgusted Lang Tingzuo fiercely.

Didn't Lang Tingzo have to lick his face and beg him now?

Hmph, I knew why I had to do it today.

What a.

Shi Lang scolded Lang Tingzuo fiercely in his heart, but he still had to give the face he should give.

After Shi Lang changed into an official robe, he beat his horse and went to the palace.

You don't need to ask to know that Lang Tingzuo is already panicking at the moment.

In this case, when asking about preparations, Shi Lang can take the initiative a lot.

Lang Tingzuo was anxious here, and when Shi Lang walked into the official office, he stood up directly and greeted him.

"Oh, General Shi, why did you come. Ben Governor has something important to do with you. ”

"Oh? When the last general heard of the Governor's summons, he immediately came. I wonder what the Governor commands? ”

Shi Lang seemed to be smiling, and asked knowingly, it was simply feeding Lang Tingzuo flies.

Lang Tingzuo didn't have much to do, so he could only say with a smile: "Does General Shi really don't know or fake doesn't know?" You just set fire to more than a dozen villages along the coast of Ningbo, have you forgotten? You made such a big move, could the Ming court not react? ”

If Lang Tingzuo didn't ask with a smile, Shi Lang really suspected that he was asking for guilt.

Even so "kind", Shi Lang still felt very uncomfortable.

"Is the Governor blaming the last general?"

Shi Lang asked half-jokingly.

"Haha, General Shi misunderstood."

Lang Tingzuo stroked his beard and said: "This governor came to General Shi to discuss the deployment of defense with General Shi. ”

He paused for a moment and said, "Ningbo is very close to Taizhou, so it will be faster if you take the sea route." If we don't prepare in advance, I'm afraid that when the thieves attack, we will only be beaten passively. ”

"Before this battle starts, the Governor is afraid?"

Shi Lang sighed and said: "It's not that the last general is boasting, as long as there is a last general, then Zheng Chenggong will not be able to take advantage." ”

Lang Tingzuo said in his heart, you braggart, but you blow very loudly.

Could the previous wars be without you Shi Lang?

Is it your Shi Lang's idea to take the initiative to attack Nanjing? But what is the result? added a Ma Fengzhi, and the army of more than 100,000 was beaten by Zheng Chenggong and fled in embarrassment.

Lang Tingzuo really wanted to point out these old things and humiliate Shi Lang fiercely.

But he knew no, once he did, he would lose even the last chance to hold Taizhou.
