Chapter 104: The Question of Enthronement
Chapter 103 Young Master Luo Yulong
Luo Yulong listened to Luo Rucai's words, and immediately moved a few steps closer to Luo Rucai.
Luo Rucai grabbed Luo Yulong with his thin hand and said: "I can't do it, from now on, Yulong is the young master of Cao Ying, you must assist Yulong well, conquer the Luo family world, and share the wealth." ”
Luo Dain's reaction was the fastest, and he didn't need to say anything at all, so he knelt on the ground with a thud and said, "Minister Luo Dain greets the young master." ”
Rodain set an example, where did the others not know what to do?
Then they all knelt on the ground with Luo Dain and said, "Greetings to the young master." ”
Zhang Xuan was no exception, and said, "Minister Zhang Xuan visits the young master. ”
Zhang Xuan felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, but he also knew that at this time, he must not show it at all. I'm afraid that Luo Rucai will see the slightest hint, and he is afraid that he will kill people for the sake of the future.
But Zhang Xuan knelt down on Luo Rucai, he could think about it, after all, Luo Rucai was his father-in-law and an elder, and there was nothing to kneel down. But Luo Yulong is just an uncle, not to mention, if Luo Yulong dies early, maybe Zhang Xuan will kneel to his nephew.
When I think about it, it makes people feel uneasy.
It's just that he lowered his head and didn't dare to move a little, as if he could feel a gaze containing infinite pressure, and it was back and forth on him, it was none other than Luo Rucai.
Although Luo Rucai is very weak now, his eyes are still extremely sharp.
It took a while for him to say, "Get up, and don't forget what you said today." ”
Zhang Xuan secretly said in his heart: "I can also be regarded as a lonely minister." ”
After everyone got up, the solemn atmosphere eased a little. Luo Rucai coughed twice more and said: "In the current situation, everyone also knows that Zuo Liangyu is going south in the overall situation and wants to recapture Nanjing City, and I am so sick that I can't lead the troops. What should be a good situation? ”
Luo Rucai asked, but didn't say.
For Luo Dain, Luo Dai, and Wang Long, such a grand strategy was never within the scope of their thinking, and they all looked at Zhang Xuan for a while.
Zhang Xuan is Cao Ying's think tank, which is almost recognized, and such a nerve-wracking question naturally has to be answered by Zhang Xuan.
Zhang Xuan pondered for a moment, his brain spinning rapidly.
In fact, what should Cao Ying do after crossing the river? Zhang Xuan had already thought about it, and even thought about it for more than a day or two, he had already considered this issue when Luo Rucai proposed the fundamental strategy for Jiangnan, of course, what he thought at that time was just a part of the whole plan.
With the completion of the whole plan step by step and the Yangtze River has also passed, this problem has become an imminent problem.
How could Zhang Xuan not think about it carefully.
However, he also knew that although Luo Rucai did not say it, there was a hidden premise in it, which was to consolidate the situation for Luo Yulong. If you don't think about that, you're off topic.
Zhang Xuan said: "Now the officers and soldiers who can affect our army have three aspects, Jiujiang Zuo Liangyu is the most threatening among them, and Zuo Liangyu has always been wise to protect himself, and he is no longer a pure minister of the imperial court, and Zuo Liangyu's subordinates are scattered between Huguang and Guangxi, and they are entangled with the camp and the camp, Zuo Liangyu can only bring the men and horses of Zuo Liangyu's headquarters, and the number will not be too much, so he only needs to send a good general to garrison the upper reaches and fight a few battles with Zuo Liangyu, so that Zuo Liangyu knows that Cao Ying is not easy to deal with, and he wants to take Cao Ying, It must be a heavy number of casualties, so he naturally hesitated. ”
"The second is Huai'an Lu Zhenfei." Zhang Xuan said.
"Since the victory in Fengyang, Lu Zhenfei has learned from the pain, intercepted the grain, and recruited troops, but for a while, Yuan Shizhong was restrained, and Yangzhou was already in my hands, so I am afraid that it will not be able to directly affect Jiangnan. It's not a cause for concern. ”
"The only thing that worries people is Zheng Zhilong." Zhang Xuan said.
"Zheng Zhilong?" Luo Rucai said: "Isn't it just a pirate? He can't reach him at sea, and if he goes ashore, a battalion of soldiers will be enough to crush, so what's there to worry about? ”
Zhang Xuan said: "It is because Zheng Zhilong is at sea. ”
"Now all parts of the south of the Yangtze River because of the fall of Nanjing, are rebels, such as Liu Zongzhou and the like, it seems to be huge, but vulnerable, so the south of the Yangtze River is not enough, just His Royal Highness worship the young lord as a general, lead the army, the eastward expedition can, only a month or two, Jiangnan Prefecture and counties are all in our hands. But after all, Jiangnan is the foundation of Donglin, in Donglin, although there are people who deceive the world and steal fame, but it is not without loyal people, the court has enjoyed the country for more than 200 years, how can there be few loyal ministers? Jiangnan is close to the sea, we have no sailors, they haunt the sea, rely on Fujian, our army is stationed, then avoid, our army leaves, and then harass, I am afraid it is Yiping Nanding. Zheng Zhilong is a dragon in the sea, even if we take Fujian Province, I am afraid that the matter is not over, and the maritime side will rise. ”
When Luo Rucai heard this, he immediately felt that he had a headache.
Not only Luo Rucai had a headache, but Zhu Yuanzhang also had a headache about this problem, and finally came up with a strategy to ban the sea, this policy was originally to eliminate Zhang Shicheng and Fang Guozhen's remaining party, as for the Qing court to go south, how many years it fought with the Zheng group, not to mention.
Zhang Xuan conquered Jiangnan, and he could use Jiangnan's manpower and material resources, rather than using Jiangnan as a battlefield.
"What do you do?" Luo Rucai saw Zhang Xuan talking about this problem, he was very calm, and immediately knew that Zhang Xuan had probably thought about countermeasures to this matter a long time ago.
"Zheng Zhilong should be mainly recruited, Zheng Zhilong was born as a pirate, and he is not a loyal minister, he only needs to defeat Zheng Zhilong first, and then hang a high-ranking official.
Thinking that Zheng Zhilong will not surrender, I mean that Zheng Zhilong can be named the king with a different surname. Zhang Xuan said.
"The king with a different surname." As soon as these three words came out, Wang Lung's eyes lit up.
Luo Rucai suddenly had an idea in his heart, he thought that Zhang Xuan would pave the way for himself again, and said: "As long as Zheng Zhilong can be used by me, it doesn't matter if he has a different surname, even if he gives him Fujian, it is not impossible, but if you want to deter one or two." ”
Zhang Xuan secretly said in his heart: "I'm still not as atmospheric as Luo Rucai." ”
Zhang Xuan thought about it for a while before putting the bottom line on the king with a different surname, and Luo Rucai took a breath and came out with one more feudal town.
However, when he thought about it, he also thought it was a good idea. Fujian is not a rich province in the first place, and now Jiangnan is in hand, what if Fujian gives Zheng Zhilong, as long as it can ensure peace at sea. Jiangnan Andu, a Fujian Province's taxes have been saved, and after the world is settled in the future, I will look at Fujian Province again, and I am afraid that I will not be able to clean it up?
"Yulong is the general of the expedition to the east, Zhang Xuan is the deputy general, Wang Long, and Luo Dai are all on the expedition, and three days later, Nanjing will join the division and march eastward." Luo Rucai said.
Luo Yulong calculated silently, and was suddenly shocked, and said: "In this way, I am almost about to empty Nanjing, what should you do, father?" ”
Luo Yulong's headquarters, Zhang Xuan's headquarters, Wang Long's headquarters, and Luo Dai's headquarters add up to seventy or eighty thousand, which is almost half of Cao Ying's main force.
"Don't worry about me?" Luo Rucai said: "I, Luo Rucai, still have a little name. ”
Luo Rucai is not worried about this situation, after all, these are gone, and there are Luo Rucai's personal guards, Yang Chengzu, Zhang Yingyuan, and Li Rugui.
In fact, Luo Rucai is not distrustful of the three of them, but it is better to trust Luo and his relatives, he is confident that even if he is sick, he can suppress these three people, as long as these three people contribute, Zuo Liangyu can do nothing.
Maybe the offense won't work, but it's still okay to defend it.
In addition, there is silver in the city of Nanjing, are you afraid that there will be no soldiers if you have silver?
Because of this, Luo Rucai's rectification of Cao Ying was not to purge some people. Instead, he gave Luo Yulong more opportunities to make meritorious contributions, allowing him to cultivate his own lineage, and put the old people around him in a secondary position.
Immediately, Luo Rucai arranged again, arranged Li Rugui to Jiangbei, replaced Zhang Xuan's position, and adjusted some people, and Yang Chengzu went west to win a big victory. How to defend Zuo Liangyu will not be detailed here.
"Your Highness, there is one more matter that needs to be decided by Your Highness." Luo Dain said: "Now below Nanjing, please Your Highness Shuntian should be enthroned as the emperor." ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked, Zhang Xuan frowned at first, and then his heart moved, feeling that this matter was not necessarily a bad thing.
