Chapter 452: Zheng Zhilong's Confession
The conspiracy between Yunyue and Wilson, Zhu Hao didn't know, Zhu Hao gave the 100,000 taels of silver extorted and 100,000 taels of gold to Nan Juyi, and let Nan Juyi use the money to train sailors and develop warships.
And Zhu Hao himself was preparing to leave for Beijing, because he found that the entire water division had an official like Nan Juyi in charge, and he had nothing to worry about, and it was meaningless for him to stay here.
After Zhu Hao rushed back to the capital to resume his life, he set out to return to Liaodong to strive for a complete solution, although the remnants of Huang Taiji were defeated, there was no evidence.
However, Zhu Haoke still remembered that before he left Liaodong, because he summoned Zhou Tai, and let Huang Taiji add a new one, four four-star tiger generals, if these four people are not solved, Zhu Hao always feels that he will be a threat.
Therefore, after Zhu Hao instructed Nan Juyi to have a tough attitude towards overseas Zhuyi, he prepared to leave for Beijing.
Before leaving, Zhu Hao told Nan Juyi again:
"Lord Nan, the matter of coastal defense will be handed over to you!"
"You remember the words of this king, if anyone dares to stab, then beat him honestly, so that he will never dare again, until he bares his teeth in front of Daming.
Nan Juyi listened to Zhu Hao's words, nodded again and again, and secretly sighed in his heart:
"I have such a prince in the Ming Dynasty, and revival is not far away!"
Just when Zhu Hao and Nan Juyi were saying goodbye, an attendant ran to Zhu Hao, whispered in Zhu Hao's ear, and muttered a few words, and then Zhu Hao's face changed, and he exclaimed:
"What?"
"Where are the others?"
"Let him come to this king at once!"
Zhu Hao said, looking at Nan Juyi, squeezed out a smile and said:
"It seems that this king can't leave for the time being, and he has to bother Lord Nan for a few days!"
Although Nan Juyi didn't know what happened, Nan Juyi analyzed from Zhu Hao's grim expression that the inner servant just said to Zhu Hao was definitely not small, and it was likely to have something to do with coastal defense.
Guessing this, Nan Juyi's face became a little more solemn, and he said:
"The prince is a subordinate official, and he can't invite someone who wants to!"
"If the prince is willing to stay in Fujian permanently, that is the blessing of the lower officials and the people of Fujian!"
Zhu Hao listened to Nan Juyi's words, sighed slightly, and said:
"This king also thinks that this king's age is the time to travel the mountains and rivers, but unfortunately this king can't!"
"Hey!"
Zhu Hao said, squeezing out a smile at Nan Juyi and said:
"Look at this king, this is also an ordinary person, isn't this also whining?"
"Therefore, this king can't be the blessing of the people of Fujian, and you, the governor of Nanda, can, this king sincerely hopes that you can benefit the people of Fujian, and live up to the trust of the court and Your Majesty!"
As Zhu Hao spoke, he also patted Nan Juyi's shoulder as a sign of encouragement.
After hearing this, Nan Juyi bowed slightly, signaled to Zhu Hao, and then said:
"Lord Wang, just now the official saw that your face was heavy, but in terms of coastal defense, what went wrong?"
Zhu Hao listened to Nan Juyi's words, shook his head and said:
"This king can't say it well, everything has to wait for this king, and I won't know until I see someone!"
"Nan Daren rest assured, if there is a problem with coastal defense, this king will definitely look for you as soon as possible, you can't run even if you want to, haha......"
Zhu Hao said with a hearty smile, Zhu Hao's optimistic attitude infected Nan Juyi, and Nan Juyi also laughed with Zhu Hao.
Then Zhu Hao and Nan Juyi, the two separated, returned to his Fujian line, after Zhu Hao arrived in the line, there was already a person in the line, waiting for Zhu Hao's arrival.
Zhu Hao looked at this person and said with a slight smile:
"Zheng Zhilong, you pirate leader, you are so bold!"
"I don't know that Fujian is stationed, my most elite sailor in the Ming Dynasty?"
"You're throwing yourself into a trap!"
The person waiting for Zhu Hao is Zhu Hao's account, the pirate leader Zheng Zhilong.
Zheng Zhilong listened to Zhu Hao's words, and said with a hearty smile:
"Where is the Shanghai thief in the end!"
"The last generals are just working for His Highness!"
"This Fujian sailor is really powerful, and I don't dare to provoke it, but the last general will have His Royal Highness to take care of, who else is the last general afraid of!"
"Daming, this 10,000-mile sea area, will go anywhere in the end!"
Zhu Hao looked at Zheng Zhilong, dancing with his hands, while talking, and gesturing over and over again, he couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly, and then his face turned pale, and he said:
"Alright, let's get down to business!"
"Do you know that your news has directly messed up the king's itinerary!"
"Let's talk about the specifics!"
"On what basis do you judge that the fleets of the overseas Zhuyi have been united?"
Zheng Zhilong asked the chamberlain to pass on the words to Zhu Hao, which was "The combination of overseas Zhuyi fleets may threaten the Fujian Naval Division!" It was this sentence that made Zhu Hao have to change the time of returning to Beijing, and hurriedly summoned Zheng Zhilong to inquire about the specific situation.
Zheng Zhilong listened to Zhu Hao's words, no longer smiling, and said:
"Back to Your Highness, a few days ago, the last general led a fleet to travel, and found three lone supply ships, so he was ready to start!"
"The fleet that didn't want to be the last general, just approached the three cargo ships, and in an instant, dozens of warships of various colors appeared around the periphery."
"If it weren't for the quick reaction of the last general at that time and immediately issued the order to retreat, I'm afraid the last general would never see His Highness again!"
"These ships, flying all kinds of flags, it is obvious that they do not belong to the same country, or the same power."
"And among these ships, there are the flags of that fleet that the last general has encountered before, and who was defeated by the Fujian Navy a few days ago and fled."
"The admiral guesses that their fleets must have been united for some reason!"
"Their fleets, originally unilateral combat capabilities, are very strong, ordinary pirates are not their opponents at all, and the only one who can make them unite is estimated to be the Fujian Naval Division!"
"Therefore, the last general analyzes that their union may be coming to the Fujian Navy!"
Zhu Hao listened to Zheng Zhilong's narration, and only after a long time did he speak:
"Your analysis is very reasonable, and it is very likely that this is what you analyzed!"
"It seems that these overseas lords are thieves who don't die!"
"But it's okay, let them unite together, save the king from looking for them one by one, and let the king hurt them with this, so that they will never dare to show their teeth and claws with me again!"
Zhu Hao said, paused slightly, waved his hand at Zheng Zhilong and said:
"Commander Zheng, you go down and rest first!"
"Leave this matter to the king, just deal with it!"
After Zhu Hao finished speaking to Zheng Zhilong, he turned his head to the waiter waiting beside him and ordered:
"Go, Lord Nan, invite this king, tell him that this king has important matters, consult with him, and let him come to see this king quickly!"
