Chapter 1740: Who's the Praying Mantis

PS: Thank you for the monthly tickets voted by the book friends "Yuan Awakening" and "Little Drunk Gun".

Wu Zheng clapped his hands, "That's right, if Prince Zheng or your dynasty wants to recapture Andongwei, let Yue Le and E Shuo lead the army to attack." ”

"You ......." Zilharang was a little annoyed, the person in front of him was completely unreasonable, since both sides intended to shake hands and make peace, then there must be some concessions in everything, otherwise how to talk?

But Wu Zheng didn't leak, Ji'er Harang could only go around in circles, and said bluntly, "The appointment between you and me before, did King Wu want to break the promise?" ”

"Where do you start?" Wu Zheng said seriously, "It's not reasonable to be reasonable...... At that time, it was agreed that our army had not captured Fengyang and Xuzhou, nor had it captured Andongwei...... But right now, how can our army talk to the same day? ”

Zilharang hated it in his heart, but he couldn't find the words to refute it for a while, so he could only say angrily: "King Wu is really unreasonable...... It is precisely because you and I agree to the peace talks that Yue Le and E Shuo will withdraw north ....... ”

"Hah...... Ha! Wu Zhengwei laughed.

Yue Le and E Shuo retreated north, it was indeed after Wu Zheng and Qian Qianyi talked, but it was only one day away, and Qian Qianyi was afraid that he hadn't passed the Dagu Kou, that is to say, Ji'er Harang didn't know the result of Qian Qianyi's negotiation with Wu Zheng at all, let alone ordered Yue Le to retreat north.

The look of embarrassment on Zilharang's face flashed, and he said solemnly: "So that King Wu knows that there are still a million male soldiers in our court...... King Wu wants to go on a northern expedition, I'm afraid he has more than enough heart but not enough strength, right? ”

Wu Zheng smiled and said: "Millions are true, but the male soldiers may not be ...... The Eight Banners of the Beijing Camp plus the Eight Banners of the garrison had a total of no more than 80,000 horses, but Dolgon, Azig, Yue Le, etc. took away no less than half of them, that is to say, there were no more than 40,000 banner soldiers in Gyeonggi. ”

"But we still have 180,000 new troops!"

"100,000 is a new one, right?" Wu Zheng glanced at Ji'er Harang, "To this day, the recruitment is not full, right?" ”

"You!" Zilharanghuo got up and pointed at Wu Zheng.

But then he sat back and said with a smile: "The Taizhou Wei under the command of King Wu has lost more than seventy percent, and it is unbearable to fight again, and Wu Songwei has suffered more than sixty percent casualties, so there is no need to worry...... More than half of the casualties of Guangxinwei who attacked Fengyang Mansion, although the casualties of the first army of King Wu's descendants were not large, but after all, the strength was limited, and in the face of thousands of miles north of the Yangtze River and the million army of our dynasty, I am afraid that I have more than enough strength but not enough strength, right? ”

Wu Zheng actually nodded and said, "This is a fact. ”

Zilharang was stunned.

"But there is also the Great Western Army of King Jin."

Zilharang said in horror: "You...... Are you willing to serve the eternal calendar? ”

Wu Zheng shook his hand and said, "This assertion is ...... Too soon? I'm King Wu? As long as the Northern Expedition is successful, whether it is Jianxing or Yongli? I'm all safe...... But on the other hand, Prince Zheng is different? Whether it is Dolbo or Azig who is in power, Prince Zheng is afraid that he will not have a good life. ”

Zilharang's face changed suddenly? "You want to break the promise?"

Wu Zheng shook his head, "When did Lone make a promise to Prince Zheng?" What promises? ”

Zilharang's whole person is not good? His fingers trembled and he said, "People don't stand ...... without faith!" ”

Wu Zheng said flawlessly: "Prince Zheng, please don't be impatient...... Did you send Qian Qianyi here before? I promise to release Ledu...... That's done, right? I agree to end this war with you...... No, you and I met, right? How can Prince Zheng accuse me of breaking my promise for no reason? ”

Zilharang was stunned for a long time before he burst out, "What about Dolbo and Azig?" What about the tens of thousands of troops in Fengyang Mansion? What about the tens of thousands of troops in Yanzhou? ”

Wu Zheng clapped his hands and said, "That's right?" Isn't the war over yet? Furthermore? I don't occupy Xuzhou, how can I solve Yanzhou Dolbo for Prince Zheng? ”

Zilharang was dizzy at this moment, and he really didn't know how to continue the conversation with this unreasonable man.

Supposedly, when it comes to this, Zilharang should be angry and flick his sleeves? Turned away.

But Zilharang can't do it, he has his demands? And this demand can be said to be completely different from the appeal of the Qing court.

Furthermore? Jierharang is too deep in the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce, is this not his "righteous and awe-inspiring" accusation that Hong, Fan and others use their own selfish interests? The scene when he secretly exonerated the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce.

In fact? I'm afraid Hong and Fan combined? There is not as much money that Zilharang invested in the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce.

Otherwise, how could Zilharang take the initiative to send Mimi to Qian Qiaogong?

People, especially those who are old and sophisticated, believe that eggs are not put in one basket.

It's not about loyalty, it's about profit.

Zilharang let out a long breath, "What is King Wu's intentions?" ”

Wu Zheng smiled, "Prince Zheng rest assured...... Lone is sincere, Mimi is now in Hangzhou Mansion, and I sent her to Qian's house...... As for Prince Zheng's silver in the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce, Lone can guarantee that one or two will not be missing...... Moreover, the Lone Society ordered the people of Shuntian Mansion to provide the necessary assistance to Prince Zheng...... As for Azig and Dolbo, Gu will definitely solve the troubles for Prince Zheng...... What's the matter, this king said so, Prince Zheng should be satisfied, right? ”

Zilharang was a little confused, his demands had been largely satisfied, and he had been actively satisfied.

"Then what does King Wu want...... If you want me to do something that harms the country, don't open your mouth! "Zilharan can only retreat.

Wu Zheng smiled and said, "Of course, Lone will not embarrass Prince Zheng...... It's just that Andongwei, Xuzhou, Fengyang, Luzhou, and Anfu are these places, and the Gui Dynasty is worried about them. ”

Zilharang hurriedly shook his head and said, "No...... By all means, this king has to go back and give an account to the court...... ”

Wu Zheng raised his hand and interrupted: "Gu has already thought of a good statement for Prince Zheng. ”

"What do you mean?"

"What you can't get on the battlefield, you can't get at the negotiating table!"

Zilharang stammered.

Wu Zheng continued: "If Prince Zheng still feels that he can't convince the imperial court, then just watch from the wall, and attack the armies of the noble dynasty such as Andong Wei and Xuzhou, if he can rob it, this king will have nothing to say!" ”

Zilharang looked at Wu Zheng for a long time, and asked coldly: "Then if it is all up to King Wu, how can King Wu guarantee that after the peace talks, the Northern Expeditionary Army will no longer go north?" ”

Wu Zheng grinned and said to Jierharang: "As long as the Qing army does not take the initiative to provoke, our army will never go north." ”

"Is that true?"

"This king never loses his trust in others!"

"Is there an open trade and exchange?"

"Of course."

"Including the muskets and artillery that I bought from the Jiangnan Military Workshop?"

"Yes."

"No longer blockade the merchant ships of various countries going north at sea?"

"Yes."

"Allow Beijing Commercial to publicly invest in the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce?"

A glimmer of light flashed in Wu Zheng's eyes, but at this time, his face was facing the outside of the city, and it was difficult for Zilharang to notice.

"Yes." Wu Zheng didn't turn his head and answered.

Looking at Ji Erharang, who was at the back of Wu Zheng's head, a strange look flashed in his eyes, "There is even no limit to the number of shares to be shared?" ”

Wu Zheng fell silent, and Zilharang did not urge.

After a long time, Wu Zhengyou spit out a word, "Yes." ”
