"No!" Hong Chengchou shook his head and said, "This matter is your side asking me for help, this is my only condition, if you don't agree, don't open your mouth." ”

Qian Qianyi said anxiously: "Everything is easy to discuss...... Or, I will withdraw some of the defenders of Zhenjiang and respond to Tianfu? Mr. knows that the Dantu defenders are under the command of Wu Zheng, and there are also some Jianyang guards, even if the imperial court issues an edict, I am afraid it will be difficult to mobilize. ”

"No, I can't. How to tune it, that's your business! ”

Qian Qianyi suddenly said: "Since Mr. doesn't want to cooperate, Qian can't force it." It's just that the gentleman must understand that if Wu Zheng is in Yingtianfu for one day, this peace talks will not be reached in one day, which is probably ...... It's not what Mr. expected either, is it? ”

Hong Chengchou stared at Qian Qianyi tightly, and suddenly smiled: "What Mr. Yu Shan said is not unreasonable, no matter what, since this matter benefits both you and me, there is naturally a basis for cooperation." But can you guarantee that Wu Zheng will leave Beijing and the peace talks will be successful? ”

Qian Qianyi said with a smile: "Peace talks are what you and I are willing to do, why can't they succeed?" As long as Mr. does not make unreasonable demands, Mr. Wozi will naturally not make any extraneous branches. ”

"What is unreasonable?" Hong Chengchou said, "If the Qingtai Dynasty doesn't want to return to the hundreds of Ming troops in Yizhen, Hong will naturally not make any other requests." ”

Qian Qianyi was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "But hundreds of remnants, Mr. can deal with them as he wants." ”

Hong Chengchou was surprised, "This is what Mr. Wozi meant?" ”

No wonder Hong Chengchou was unexpected, it was hundreds of lives, and hundreds of lives fought bloodily for the imperial court, if you don't want it, don't want it?

Qian Qianyi sighed and said: "Dapeng spreads its wings and flies high, and it will not notice some ants on the ground. Presumably, Mr. Hengjiu understands what this means. ”

Rao is Hong Chengchou, and he couldn't help but sigh a little.

"Good! That's what Mr. Yu Shan wants. ”

"No, it should be as you and I wish."

The two looked at each other and laughed.

……。

"No! The old man disagreed. This is too risky, and if you are not careful, the old man will become the bag of the Qing army. Wang Zhiren refused.

"Xingguo Gong thinks about it again, although this plan is indeed a bit risky, but I am also forced to have no choice. The imperial court is in financial distress, tens of thousands of Qing troops on the north bank are eyeing each other, although Hong Chengchou came to the peace talks, but that is the lord who does not see rabbits and does not scatter eagles, how can he let go if he does not take advantage? ”

Wang Zhiren still shook his head and said: "That's the cabinet's business, and they have to have a headache." Wu Zheng...... For the sake of hundreds of remnants, take 10,000 sailors to take risks, you ...... What do you say? Is it worth it? ”

"It's not worth it." Wu Zheng sighed lightly, "This price is indeed too great. But Guogong has ever thought that those hundreds of people should not be hundreds, but more than 20,000 Ming troops, without their sacrifices, how can Zhenjiang City be recovered, and how can the Zhenjiang counties occupied by the Qing court be recovered? How could the Qing army, which was brazenly moving south, stay on the other side, and how could the Qing court send an embassy to negotiate peace? Everything has a cause and effect, if you really abandon these hundreds of people, it will chill the hearts of the soldiers, how do you and I face the soldiers under your command? ”

Wang Zhiren was a little moved, but still disagreed, "Even if you want to save it, you can think of other ways...... Let the old man's soldiers go on the adventure, the old man will never agree! Their lives are fate, isn't the life of the soldiers under the old man's command? ”

Wu Zheng was a little anxious, "Just because the lives of the soldiers under the command of Guogong are also lives, they must be saved!" The truth of the cold lips and teeth, do you still need Wu Zheng to say more? If you don't save it today, who will save you tomorrow? You say I don't want to think of another way, but where are the active forces now? Hangzhou and Shaoxing, except for the 30,000 new recruits, the rest could not be mobilized, once Duoduo led the army back to the north, who would resist? ”

Wang Zhiren said helplessly: "Why don't you let the third battalion go?" ”

Wu Zheng said angrily: "The third battalion is only a few thousand people, and it has just been annexed, so let them fight this kind of desperate battle alone, and it would be strange if they didn't mutiny!" ”

"You know it's a desperate battle, huh?" Not to be outdone, Wang Zhiren shouted.

Wu Zheng glared at Wang Zhiren for a long time, and reluctantly softened and said, "I'm begging you, okay?" The strength of the third battalion was too small to form an absolute local superiority, but it really became a desperate battle. But if the three battalions of sailors come out together, a quick battle, at least three or four percent of the chance of winning, Guogong is also a long-term battlefield general, you should know that Wu Zheng is not empty words, now the two dynasties want to talk about peace, and they also have a non-part of the thoughts, Hong Chengchou wants to return to the original state before the war, and I want the hundreds of soldiers to come back safely. When it comes to the end, promoting peace with war has become the first choice for both sides, and Guogong won't fail to think of this, right? ”

Wang Zhiren nodded and said, "That's right." ”

Wu Zheng said: "Since this battle can't be avoided, why don't you strike first?" ”

Wang Zhiren was silent.

"Guogong rest assured, if there is a loss in the water division, I am willing to take the new army in Hangzhou and take the lead in replenishing the water division."

Wang Zhiren frowned and said, "Do you know how much effort it takes the old man to train a new sailor? ”

Wu Zheng could only laugh and say: "It's hard work." ”

Wang Zhiren said angrily: "If you say it well, you will be clever with your mouth." In this way, if this battle is to be fought, you have to agree, and the hundreds of soldiers you saved will have to be added to the old man's water division. ”

Wu Zheng was stunned, uncle, this Jiang is really old and spicy, hundreds of veterans, even if there are ten in a belt, it is an elite battalion.

Helpless, Wu Zheng couldn't take care of it at this time, so he could only agree, "Okay, I promise!" ”

Wang Zhiren eased his face and said, "You...... Acting too impatiently. The old man heard that Chen Zilong is competing with you? ”

"Guogong is well-informed!"

Wang Zhiren said angrily: "If you don't even know this, wouldn't the old man, the prince of the country, be blind in vain?" ”

Wu Zheng smiled bitterly: "It's not as good as the strength, it's just that there are some disagreements." ”

"Just a disagreement? Joke! Wang Zhiren sneered, "You...... I really don't know if you're smart or stupid? Not long ago, Chen Zilong openly advocated supporting you to ascend the throne, and you ...... Can't you wait until you've ascended the throne and established yourself before you make plans? Do you have to fight him at this time? Now it's okay, one is the first assistant, and the other is the minister...... Yes, it provoked Hong Chengchou to ridicule! ”

Wu Zheng shook his head and said, "Even if Chen Zilong still supports Wu Zheng, Wu Zheng will not agree." ”

"Uh...... Why is that? Wang Zhiren was really taken aback.

Wu Zheng smiled bitterly: "It's hard to explain this matter, now is not the time to speak, the National Guild will understand in the future." ”

Wang Zhiren frowned and said, "You don't want to say it, and the old man is not reluctant." It's just that you have to guard against Chen Zilong, it's not that the old man can't get used to these literati, but these people are too yin, and they really can't play tricks. In Yingtianfu, Chen Zilong's foundation is too deep, and if he can't do it well, he will be calculated. You...... He shouldn't have been allowed to join the cabinet in the first place. ”

Wu Zheng smiled: "What? Guogong is also afraid of Chen Zilong? ”

"Nonsense! The old man can be afraid of him...... The old man just didn't want to entangle with them, he couldn't see them and didn't bother. ”

Listening to Wang Zhiren's insincere words, Wu Zheng laughed.
