After the military discussion ended, it was almost evening, and Lushun, a port that was basically full of Ming soldiers, had almost no noise, and it could even be said that it was quieter than usual. All the soldiers are seizing the time to rest, and starting tomorrow, a new journey will begin!

In a big house in Lushun City, the three Zheng brothers were all gathered around the fire and did not go to rest.

"This northern winter, it's really a bird that freezes to death!" Zheng Zhihu complained, "Fifty or sixty of my brothers are frostbitten!" ”

Zheng Zhilong listened, glanced at him and said, "It won't be long before I can go back to the south, what are you complaining about?" ”

Speaking of this, he glanced at Zheng Zhiyun who was sitting on the side, silently looking at the fire pond, and then turned back to look at Zheng Zhihu and said, "This trip to the north can be regarded as broadening my horizons!" Speaking of which, the Ming Dynasty is really big, and our understanding of the imperial court in the past was really quite one-sided! ”

Hearing him talk about this, Zheng Zhihu was silent.

Indeed, in the past, I always felt that the officials and soldiers of the court were a bunch of waste, and they didn't pay much attention to it at all. But this time, not to mention the new army formed by the emperor himself, the military discipline is really beyond the reach of the dust, which is not comparable.

Even if the Dongjiang Army is wearing military uniforms full of patches, they are also fierce when they fight hard. The cavalry on land, especially Lu Zhongcheng's hussar battalion, Zheng Zhihu felt it himself, if he was on land, even if he pulled out all his elites to fight, he would definitely not be their opponent.

He was thinking about it, Zheng Zhilong spoke again: "Have you found it, the emperor has mastered the ability of clairvoyance and ears, this is the most critical place." In any place, as long as there is a little wind and grass, it can immediately reach the heavens, and then the emperor reacts quickly. Such a thing has never happened in any dynasty or dynasty. Jianyu is indeed powerful, but it is far inferior in this aspect, and because of this, it suffers a big loss. Now that the war in Gaizhou is together, Jianyu will definitely suffer a big loss again. Big brother, I dare to conclude that in less than five years, the Liao matter can be decided, do you believe it? ”

"Hey, big brother, you seem to be familiar with what you said!" When Zheng Zhihu heard this, he couldn't help scratching the back of his head and said, but he just couldn't remember where he had heard it!

At this time, Zheng Zhiyun raised his head, glanced at him and reminded: "The Dongjiang Army laughed at their enemies for saying this!" ”

"Oh, I remembered, that Yuan Chonghuan said it!" Zheng Zhihu suddenly realized, patted his knee and said loudly, "Then if this is the case, wouldn't he have died unjustly!" ”

When Zheng Zhilong heard this, he glanced at him, and said with a little hatred: "Can you turn your brain more?" Can the five years of Pingliao that Yuan Chonghuan said be the same as now? When he was there, what was the situation in Liaodong? Jianyu has been beaten to the city of Jingshi, and it has been five years to level Liao? ”

Speaking of this, he paused and said: "I said that five years of Pingliao, this credit has to go to the emperor, understand?" When Jianyu besieged the Beijing Division, the emperor turned the tide, you count, from the end of last year to the present, how many things have been done to have the current situation? ”

"I know this!" When Zheng Zhiyun heard this, he said, "When I stayed in Jingshi, I was still here, and I probably knew everything about them when I heard them talk about it." ”

When Zheng Zhihu heard this, his eyes rolled, and he said to Zheng Zhiyun: "Then tell me, I'll see if you have any leaks?" ”

In fact, his big temperament is usually not interested in things other than the sailor at all. At this time, when I heard Zheng Zhilong say this, I wanted to know, and I was embarrassed to ask directly, so I played a little clever.

Zheng Zhiyun listened, glanced at him playfully, did not reveal it, looked at Zheng Zhilong and said: "As far as Liao affairs are concerned, I think the emperor has done a few major things, first replacing Yuan Chonghuan with Sun Gelao, and using his prestige to stabilize the Guan Ning army, which was a little chaotic before, and then silently, he cut off Jianyu's ears and eyes with the white pole army thousands of miles away, and copied a lot of large and small Jin merchants, and at the same time rectified the court, and also made the silver fill the treasury, so that the court has money to do things. ”

"Then, Lu Zhongcheng was also promoted to be the governor of Denglai, needless to say, Lu Zhongcheng's large and small wars are enough to show how correct the emperor's appointment is, right?"

Zheng Zhilong nodded when he heard this: "These are actually just intuitive surfaces, secretly, the military information provided by the emperor, ah, fairy-like means!" ”

After sighing with emotion, he didn't explain too much, his face returned to seriousness, and he said to his two younger brothers very seriously: "Today, I have felt so much, I have nagged so much, there is only one purpose, the court opened the sea and banned this matter, and there must be no complaints after I go back." The strength of our Zheng family, in front of the emperor has no bargaining capital at all, only by doing things for the court and the emperor can the glory and wealth in the future be guaranteed, you know? ”

There are a lot of them, he can't tell a few brothers, remembering the previous things in the north, including Zheng Zhibao, when he encounters a little dissatisfaction, he is full of shouts to go back, and he doesn't take the court seriously! The thought of this made him very worried, so he had to emphasize it very solemnly.

The Zheng Zhiyun brothers looked at each other, nodded together and replied, "Don't worry, big brother, we know." ”

For the two of them, I have personally experienced it, felt the power of the imperial court, and broadened my horizons, so I naturally knew that it was basically wishful thinking to obstruct the imperial court from opening the sea ban and monopolize the maritime interests, and the final result could be imagined, so it was easy for them to accept.

Even after Zheng Zhiyun finished speaking, he specially reminded: "Li Zhiqi has Liu Jinsheng on his side, and we have to be careful!" ”

Hearing this, Zheng Zhilong nodded, and said with a little hatred: "How can he have such a skill, among our brothers, even if there is one of his henchmen, it would be good!" ”

Zheng Zhiyun heard this, and was about to nod, but suddenly, the whole person stayed there.

After a while, Zheng Zhilong felt that it was almost over, so he instructed them: "Forget it, go to bed early, you can't delay tomorrow morning's action!" ”

When Zheng Zhihu heard this, he immediately stood up and shouted: "This kind of ghost weather, if only there was a girl to warm the bed!" ”

Speaking of this, he suddenly found that Zheng Zhiyun was still sitting there, so he said to him: "Why are you still sitting, let's drill the quilt early, do you really want others to warm the quilt for you first?" ”

Hearing him say this, Zheng Zhilong, who had already stood up, felt wrong, lowered his head and asked, "What are you doing in a daze?" Do you have something on your mind? ”

Who knew that after asking this, he saw Zheng Zhiyun raise his head, his face full of surprise.
