Kailuo nodded and said, "Theoretically, this is so, but if General Zheng becomes the Caesar of China, his power will be ...... I mean, he's going to be in a better position to trade with us, isn't he? ”

"Of course." Robben nodded and said, "At present, theoretically, we have other suppliers besides General Zheng, and once General Zheng really rules China, all the supply chains of tea, silk, and porcelain will be in his hands, which will certainly enhance his bargaining power." But Mr. Carro, you should also know that the existence of the other suppliers is actually only theoretical. Taken together, they are able to provide us with less than a fraction of the amount of goods General Zheng, so their presence, even now, does not help us in any way in our bargaining power. And, sir, you understand that where our interests can extend depends on our strength. Theoretically, it is in our best interest to occupy the whole of China and turn China into our colony, but it is also impossible for our power to do it. If we pursue such a goal, it will ultimately cause serious damage to our own interests. Admiral Zheng was soon about to throw himself into a great battle, but it was mainly fought on land, and the power of his navy was not pinned down. Even, as far as I know, Admiral Zheng is further strengthening his navy. Therefore, in this war, even if we stand against him, it will not be enough to defeat him, but it will destroy the cooperation between us and them, and the interests of both of us will suffer great losses. ”

"You're right, Robben." Kairo nodded, "Now let's study how to use this opportunity to create greater performance for the company......

While Kyro and Robben were discussing business, a newly created Model Army unit was embarking at the Bukgang Pier and heading to Jeju Island.

"Huang Lian Chang, I heard that it is very cold in the north in winter, and what is frozen, as soon as I take it out, it is said that someone touched the ear, and the whole ear fell off, I don't know if it's true?" A recruit asked their company commander.

"Who did you listen to?" Huang Shan's eyes widened and said, "How can there be such a thing?" ”

"I heard from our platoon commander that he is from Shaanxi, Li Chuang's hometown, and a northerner." The recruit replied.

"Can you believe what Li Dazui said? This guy's words should be discounted at least by two. Huang Shandao. Li Dazui is a platoon commander under him, this guy is a nasty guy, he is energetic, lively, smart, when he was in the army school, no matter what subject he learned, he was proficient, whether it was cultural knowledge, or shooting, or stabbing, or soil work, or military projects on the map, Li Dazui's performance was the top. Of course, this is not the reason why he annoyed Huang Shan. The most annoying thing about Li Dazui is naturally his big mouth. Li Dazui is a Kan God, he likes to talk nonsense, and he is very good at talking nonsense. In the army school, this guy can always learn all kinds of homework in the shortest possible time, and then the extra time is taken out by him and talked nonsense with people, but he is particularly capable, he has a humorous temperament, and his knowledge is also good, and he Kan Dashan is really a great joy in life, plus this guy is energetic, Kan Dashan has almost no problem with him all night or anything. However, those who accompanied him were unlucky, and when it came time for the exam, Li Dazui's easy homework was "first", and those classmates who were usually close to him were all "retaken" one by one. In this way, gradually, everyone knew that this product was a disaster, so gradually they all stayed away.

As soon as Li Dazui graduated this year, he was assigned to Huang Shan's subordinates as a platoon commander as an outstanding graduate. As a senior who was a few years earlier than Li Dazui, he didn't know much about Li Dazui's glorious years in school, and when he saw Li Dazui's results at first, he felt that he had picked up a treasure. But it wasn't long before he realized that he had indeed picked up a piece of treasure, and it was a live treasure.

Li Dazui is smart, has good grades, is inevitably a little proud, and likes to talk nonsense, as a result, his second problem soon appeared, that is, he likes to comment on his superiors. It is said that Huang Shan got a mean evaluation from Li Dazui, "A rigid and rigid wood who can only memorize the regulations, but actually does not understand the spirit of the regulations at all, if it were not for the large-scale expansion of the army, he would not be able to be a company commander at all, and he would be a platoon commander reluctantly, in fact, the most suitable position for him is the warehouse manager, and the premise is that there are no more than five cannons in the warehouse".

If it weren't for the fact that there was too much shortage of grassroots officers, Huang Shan would have found a way to kick him out of his company a long time ago.

"Alright, private, go back to your position, and soon go to sea." Huang Shan glanced at the soldier again and said.

By this time, the transport ship had already raised its sails. This is a blessed ship that used to be a warship, but now these ships are no longer used as warships, but have returned to their original duties and are engaged in transportation.

The ship left the harbor, formed a small flotilla with two other similar ships, and sailed north, following the southeast wind, and their goal was Jeju Island, of course, where they would join the rest of the regiment and prepare for the future battle.

……

"Your Majesty, the slave feels that the Southern Dynasty has run its ropes, and it is time for me to enter the Central Plains and seize the world. The minions feel that my Daqing can directly send troops to seize Shanhaiguan, and then wave the army straight down to seize the world! Gao Hongzhong knelt on the ground, kowtowed to Huang Taiji, and then said.

In the original history, Huang Taiji would die of illness in this year, however, in this time and space, although Huang Taiji was also plagued by problems such as high blood pressure caused by physical obesity, but because his personal life was far better than the original history, his physical condition was also passable.

Huang Taiji glanced at Gao Hongzhong, who was kneeling on the ground, and did not answer, but turned his head to the others and asked, "What do you think?" ”

"Brother Chen feels that the Ming army is already vulnerable, and it is the right time to take Shanhaiguan." Dodor was the first to answer.

"What do you think, Azio?" Huang Taiji asked again.

In terms of strength, Duoduo's strength far exceeds that of his eldest brother of the same mother, but in terms of the level of fighting, Duoduo is not as good as his eldest brother.

Azigo thought for a moment and replied, "Shanhaiguan is different from cities like Jinzhou. The terrain of Shanhaiguan is steep, the cannon can't be transported, and there is no way to surround it, the younger brother feels that directly attacking Shanhaiguan is only afraid that the loss is too great, and there may not be any good results. ”

Dodor frowned, as if he wanted to open his mouth to refute Azig, but Dorgon, who was on his side, reached out and pulled his sleeve, so Dodor only frowned, but did not speak again.

Huang Taiji has always been very scruple about the three brothers Azigo, Dolgon, and Duoduo, but the strength in the hands of these three brothers is too strong, and Huang Taiji can't deal with them like other brothers, so he has been committed to provoking and dividing these three brothers. For example, depriving Azigo of his status as the banner lord and giving this position to Dorgon, or deliberately conniving at the empty-eyed Duoduo, and then letting Azigo refute Duoduo.

It's just that Azig's brain is also a little not very useful, at least in this regard, a little not very useful, and he can always be on this way.

"What about you? What do you guys think? Huang Taiji glanced at the ministers below again.

"Your Majesty, the slave feels that although the time to seize the world is almost ripe, with the military strength of my Qing Dynasty, it is not very difficult to seize the world, but the more this time, the more I have to calm down in the Qing Dynasty." Fan Wencheng knelt out, kowtowed, and said, "Now the Guannei Liukou is flourishing, and Beijing is lonely." If the Liukou capture Beijing, Wu Sangui of Shanhaiguan will lose his foundation, and at that time, I will be able to recruit this person in the Qing Dynasty, and then use the excuse of 'helping Ming to destroy the Kou', and I will be able to collect the world with half the effort. ”

"How do you know that Wu Sangui will surrender to my Great Qing? How do you know he's not going to be a rogue then? Duoduo couldn't help but say again.

"Prince Yu," Fan Wencheng said, "what can Liukou give Wu Sangui?" Can they pay him millions of silver a year like the emperor of the Southern Dynasty? Can it be guaranteed that he can still have the status of money and wealth under the emperor of the Southern Dynasty now? If not, why did he surrender? Besides, if Wu Sangui surrenders to the Liukou, and he is caught between the Liukou and us, he won't worry about the Liukou borrowing a knife to kill people and using us to destroy him? ”

"What the hell are you talking about, you minion? Can we pay Wu Sangui millions of troops a year, and if we surrender, we won't be caught between us and the rogues? According to your reasoning, why did Wu Sangui surrender to us? Dodor asked rhetorically.

"Prince Yu." Fan Wencheng said, "Indeed, as you said, it is impossible for us to give Wu Sangui a few million military salaries a year, he surrendered to us, and it is also between us and the Liukou, but we are not the same as the Liukou." ”

Without waiting for Duoduo to ask, Fan Wencheng continued: "The combat power of the Liukou is not worth mentioning at all compared to my Qing Dynasty. Guan Ningjun was often transferred to the Guannai to fight the rogues, and against the rogues, they won more and lost less. But Guan Ningjun is against us, have they won? They follow us to fight the rogue, and there is still a way to survive, but if he follows the rogues and fights us, what will happen? Moreover, although we cannot give him millions of silver a year, if he surrenders to us and drives for us, we can allow him to conquer the city and conquer the land, and the children will take it for themselves, and follow the rogue, where can the rogue let him take it? Therefore, the emperor, Prince Yu, and ministers felt that once Beijing was occupied by the Liukou, Wu Sangui would have the only way to surrender to the Qing Dynasty. ”
