Zhang Qiang over there was quite shocked when he received the news from Feng Quan of Lu Guo, and after being shocked, he smiled bitterly and said to Wei Wuji: "It seems that we can't do it in the future to provoke this matter, and we have to clean up the situation ourselves." ”

Wei Wuji smiled and said, "As soon as I received Feng Quan's letter, I immediately knew that the small Lu State couldn't play the task that Your Majesty gave them, and this didn't go wrong,"

Zhou Congee stroked his face, listening to the words of the two people very innocently, this is nothing for him, he has a lot of things to do now, he has a headache all day long, the war is the matter of Zhang Qiang and Wei Wuji, he is a person who cares about people's livelihood, and he doesn't pay attention to those.

However, he is also in charge of personnel, so he said: "You can let Zhang Liang continue to engage in diplomacy, he is very interesting in diplomacy, Qian Bingrup is too old-fashioned, not a person engaged in diplomacy, and his knowledge is almost the same." ”

Wei Wuji smiled: "Then where did Qian Bingrup go?" ”

Zhou Congee rubbed his face, "Let him go to Fujian Prefecture for a few days, go and clean up the mess, no one will clean up the mess after You Haibo, He Jin stayed for a few days and was transferred to Qiongzhou, Qiu Jianyong's ability in Qiongzhou can only manage the troops, let Qiu Jianyong take over the position of garrison commander, He Jin ran at both ends, and it was quite troublesome." ”

Zhang Qiang thought for a while, "Well, He Jin is the governor of Qiongzhou, and it is okay to give the military power to Qiu Jianyong, Qiu Jianyong is also a little uncomfortable in managing civil officials, as a military general, he can't manage civilian officials well." It's okay to separate military power and political power, Qian Bingrup came down from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, but there is no need for Zhang Liang to take over, let Gu Yuesheng go, the last adjustment should have been made by him, but he didn't come up, so let him go to serve as the secretary of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Zhang Liang is still doing well as the secretary of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, can't you get along with him? ”

Zhou Congee smiled, "Every day in front of a person who is a eunuch himself, it is always uncomfortable to look at. ”

"Hahaha," Zhang Qiang and Wei Wuji both laughed, there is no way, Zhang Liang was discovered and promoted by Zhang Qiang from the court of Nanming Kingdom, he has good ability, he can speak well, he has vision, he will please people, everyone likes such people, but Zhou Congee seems to be insensitive to this kind of person and doesn't like it.

"Okay, if Gu Yuesheng is not allowed to serve as the secretary of the ministry, Zhang Liang should go back to serve as the secretary of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs," Wei Wuji proposed.

Zhang Qiang thought about it, and the two of his henchmen proposed it, and he couldn't save their face, so he said: "Well, let's do it, let Qian Bingrup go to Fujian Prefecture, Gu Yuesheng go to the Ministry of Officials, Zhang Liang still goes back to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, he is good at doing this, knowing people and making good use of them, which is also a great virtue." Qiu Jianyong, as Baghyalu's deputy, took over as the deputy commander of the corps and was promoted to admiral. In this way, the treasure island has Mi Lin as the governor, in charge of the two islands, the actual jurisdiction of the treasure island, Qiongzhou is managed by He Jin, and the soldiers and horses are managed by Qiu Jianyong. ”

After handling this personnel adjustment, Zhang Qiang pulled the problem back to the current problem, how to solve the fact that Shandong was divided into parts.

"Otherwise, let's leave Lu Guo alone, let Feng Quan and Kong Youxing occupy the section from Kagoshima to Nagasaki, and then continue to expand to the main island of Japan." Zhou Congee made a suggestion.

"You mean to cut the chaos and divide the country of Lu directly? Cause the established fact and throw Lu Guo to Hong Chengchou's three sons and one grandson to fight for hegemony? Wei Wuji asked.

"Yes, anyway, where is Feng Quan's still some naval warships, although there are not many, and with Feng Quan's ability, we will add another one to tear apart the naval division of Lu State, in this way, let Lu State fight for it itself, we will take out all the people who can fight, and occupy his territory of two hundred miles here in Kagoshima and Nagasaki in Japan, where the population is more than Lu State, and all the essence of Lu State's soldiers and horses is retained, so that they can establish a country, or directly merge into our Huaxia Kingdom, but we don't send troops to go right away, Only send the First Naval Division Fleet to support them, and now no force dares to provoke us. Zhou Congee said.

Zhang Qiang slapped the table, "Yes, yes, throw away those guys who don't make it, let Feng Quan start anew, Feng Quan will definitely be able to stabilize the situation, we don't need to pay much, when the time comes, whether it is in the face of the remnants of the Lu State or the pressure from Japan, I think the two of them can at least support it." ”

"That's it." Wei Wuji also patted the table.

At this time, Jin Qi knocked on the door and walked in, "Your Majesty's latest information, the second prince's people organized 30,000 soldiers and horses to fight a battle with Kong Youxing, Kong Youxing broke through the second prince's obstacle and has returned to Nagasaki, they have less than 20,000 soldiers and horses left, most of the people escaped, only brought back 3,000 people, and then fought with the third prince's Eighth Field Brigade.

The Eighth Field Brigade was defeated, 3,000 people were captured and killed, the brigade commander fled with hundreds of people as warships to a large island dozens of nautical miles next to the main island of Lu, and where to meet the soldiers and horses, now the three princes have a total of 7,800 soldiers and horses, and about 10,000 people on the big island, claiming to break away from the Lu State and establish the Ryukyu Kingdom. ”

Zhou Congee smiled: "It seems that things have developed beyond our expectations." ”

Jin Qi also reported, "The other three princes' flickering function is good, he flickered to about fifty thousand-ton warships, sixty search eight-hundred-ton warships, one hundred six-hundred-ton warships, and two hundred three-hundred-ton warships, and the rest plus about three hundred merchant ships, the total sailors are a little small, but four hundred and fifty people, stuffed about a thousand fishermen up, and reluctantly drove these ships back to his territory. ”

"The current situation of the country of Lu is three changes in one day, this morning, the eldest prince and the second prince had a fight, and then turned back, the second prince with his own soldiers and horses stormed the mansion of the eldest prince, the soldiers and horses of the eldest prince came, the second prince's mansion was breached, with the remnants of the horses, on Chen Hui's warship, with one hundred and twenty warships ran back to the island of Japan, the remaining about sixty percent of the warships were brought back to Osaka, Japan by Chen Hui, and then the population and soldiers and horses loyal to him were taken back to Osaka Island, Japan by the warship, about 30,000 people, 30,000 militia troops, Combined with the soldiers and horses of the two field brigades he originally owned, he had almost 50,000 soldiers and horses. ”

Zhou Congee asked, "What about the eldest prince?" ”

Jin Qi shook his head and said: "The eldest prince is competing with Feng Quan for population and soldiers, and the eldest prince reprimands Feng Quan for being disloyal, not helping him, not helping him when the second prince attacks him, and immediately sending troops to attack Feng Quan's mansion."

Feng Quan had no choice but to resist, he did not have many soldiers and horses, and could not cope with the eldest prince's 6,000 soldiers and horses and nearly 20,000 militia troops, as well as the 50,000 young and strong people recruited by the eldest prince, so he could only retreat to the dock in defeat.

There are nearly 30 percent of the civil and military officials who follow him, all of whom are close to him who are afraid of being liquidated, as well as nearly 4,000 soldiers and horses, and 6,000 militia troops. ”

Zhang Qiang waved his hand arrogantly, "Don't withdraw, tell Zhao Hui, give me the dock of the main island, as for the other big islands and small islands, they can be handed over to the eldest prince of Hong Chengchou, even if he wins power, he is not enough to make us afraid in terms of size, it should be that he is afraid of us, let's cool him down for the time being, let him panic, and when the opportunity comes, we will blackmail him again, and promise to pay more than his dead ghost and old man." ”
