"Who is Zheng Chenggong?" Huang You was a little baffled.

Sun Yuan realized that he had made a mistake, Zheng Chenggong's real name is Zheng Sen, his nickname is Fusong, and his words are clear. Zheng Chenggong was his later name. It was in 1645 that after the Qing soldiers went south to destroy the Nanming regime, the officials and people of Fuzhou supported Zhu Yujian, the king of the Tang Dynasty, as the emperor and established the name Longwu. At that time, Zheng Zhilong had a heavy army and became the main military force that Emperor Longwu relied on.

Soon after Emperor Longwu ascended the throne, Zheng Zhilong introduced Zheng Chenggong to Emperor Longwu, Emperor Longwu greatly appreciated Zheng Chenggong's talent, he sighed and said: "It's a pity that there is no female match, Qing should be loyal to my family, don't forget it!" In order to show his favor for Zheng Chenggong, Emperor Longwu gave Zheng Chenggong the most respected surname Zhu in the dynasty, and changed his original name to Chenggong. From this time on, Zheng Sen's name became Zhu Chenggong.

Speaking of which, there are really a lot of Zheng Chenggong's names. Zheng Sen, Fu Song, Zheng Damu, Zhu Chenggong, Zheng Chenggong, Zheng Yanping, if they were not familiar with the history of the Ming Dynasty, they would really be confused.

"Oh, so-and-so is talking about Zheng Zhilong's eldest son, Zheng Sen." Sun Yuan made a slip of the tongue for a while, and was a little embarrassed: "This person is a character, but the dragon of the Zheng family." ”

Huang You said with a smile: "It turns out that the general is talking about Zheng Sen, this son is ordinary in my opinion, and it is not worth paying attention to."

。 ”

"How?" Sun Yuan was a little puzzled.

Over the years, the fleet of Yangzhou Zhenshui Division and the Zheng family has fought many large and small naval battles on the ocean, and many people have died on each other, which can be described as deep as the sea. The intelligence on the Fujian side, Huang You, the chief think-tank under Sun Yuan, is naturally very clear: "Although this Zheng Sen is the eldest son of the Zheng family, the future heir of the Zheng family. But this human nature is ...... How to say it, it's not considered cowardly, but it's a little soft, not like a person who can lead troops. He was raised at home since he was a child and never fought. Unlike his younger brother Tagawa Nanazaemon, he is a powerful character. Perhaps, it is because he reads too much and reads his temperament a little pedantic. ”

"However, speaking of this Zheng Sen, he seems to have some talent in reading."

Sun Yuan suddenly became interested: "Brother Huang, you go on." ”

Huang You: "Although Zheng Sen is a Fujianese, he was born in the Fusang Pinghu Domain, and it was not until he was six years old, that is, in the first year of Chongzhen, that Zheng Zhilong was recruited and returned to Anping, Quanzhou, Fujian to live and study. The Zheng family went by sea and was wealthy, so they paid a lot of money to hire a Confucian celebrity to be Zheng Sen's enlightenment. The eldest son of the Zheng family has been a reading seed since he was a child, and when he was in the eleventh year of Chongzhen, he was selected as a talent and became a student in Nan'an County. Fujian Quanzhou Hui'an Jinshi, the former Ministry of Rites waiter Dong Yang first loved his talent and married his niece to him. And often say to people, with Zheng Mingyan's talent, if you have to meet a famous teacher, ten years of cold bed, it is still possible to be famous as a jinshi in the future. ”

In his narration, the appearance of an elegant scholar appeared in front of Sun Yuan, instead of the commander and national hero of the golden iron horse in his imagination, which surprised Sun Yuan greatly.

Huang You continued: "General, the reason why the Zheng family came to contact my Yangzhou Town this time is probably because they want to negotiate, in the past few years, my Ningxiang Army and the Zheng family have fought so many battles on the ocean, and both sides have killed and injured each other. Although my Ningxiang sailors suffered a big loss, they killed 1,000 enemies and lost 800 themselves, and they couldn't stand it if they went on like this. After all, although the benefits of being a maritime merchant are great, they are still not comparable to the consumption of war. Moreover, in the past year, our Ningxiang military and naval division has vaguely taken advantage of its disadvantages at sea. ”

Sun Yuanwei groaned: "That makes sense, Brother Huang, according to you, what does the Zheng family plan to talk to us, and what do you want to talk about?" ”

Huang You: "General, don't worry, listen to me and talk to the other person in the Zheng family." ”

Sun Yuan: "The other person is Zheng Zhifeng, isn't he Zheng Zhilong's younger brother?" ”

Huang You: "Yes, that's him."

。 Zheng Zhifeng is his original name, but Zheng Zhilong's third brother, now known as Zheng Hongkui, this person is a bit interesting, and now in the Fujian Navy, he is Zheng Zhilong's first cadre, and his prestige in the Zheng family is extremely high, and there is even a tendency to overpower Zheng Zhilong. Therefore, this negotiation shows that it seems that Zheng Zhilong let his eldest son Zheng Sen be the main one, but in fact, this Zheng Hongkui is the key. ”

Sun Yuan became interested: "Tell me about this person's situation in detail." ”

"Yes, General." Huang You sorted out the information in his mind and continued: "In the early years, when the Zheng family was a pirate on the ocean, they were in charge of the sea of blood and paid attention to bravery. Because, at that time, the most important person in the Zheng family was the second Zheng Zhihu, who was strong in martial arts, familiar with the southeast ocean current and hydrology, and was the first cadre under Zheng Zhilong. It's a pity that this Zheng Zhihu died early, as soon as he died, his soldiers and soldiers were under the jurisdiction of Zheng Zhifeng. ”

Unlike his second brother, who is a fierce Zhang Fei, this Zheng Zhifeng is wise and has a broad vision. He also knew that the Zheng family would not be able to get on the stage anyway by going to the sea alone. Now the country is in a state of erosion, but it will not go on forever. Once the country is pacified, the imperial court will free up its hands to pacify the coastal defense. Therefore, at his suggestion, the Zheng family accepted two recruitments. After being recruited for the second time, Zheng Zhilong was even named a guerrilla general of coastal defense by the imperial court. ”

"It is precisely because of the official body that the Zheng family is also an official and a thief, and its power is great. It can be said that Zheng Zhilong's ability to have today's atmosphere has a lot to do with Zheng Zhifeng's suggestion that the Zheng family accept Xiong Wencan's appeasement. ”

"As for this Zheng Hongkui, it's even more amazing." Speaking of this, Huang You couldn't help but smile, with a rare trace of solemnity and admiration on his face: "I heard that when this person used to be a pirate on the ocean, he studied diligently after fighting. It's a pity that he is a pirate, otherwise he would have really gone to take the imperial examination. Because this person was unable to participate in the imperial examination, after being recruited, he actually went to the martial arts, and really gave him a meritorious name and a martial artist. In the end, in order to appease the Zheng family, the imperial court awarded him the post of commander of the Jinyi Guard. After winning the martial arts, Zheng Zhifeng changed his name to Zheng Hongkui. Later, as the representative of the Zheng family in the officialdom, he traveled between the officialdom and the Zheng family, and was the most important figure in the Zheng family. ”

Sun Yuan laughed: "This Zheng Hongkui is really a wonderful person!" ”

Huang You: "This person is a person who likes to toss." At this, he couldn't help but laugh.

The two laughed for a long time, and Huang Youcai said solemnly: "General, the Zheng family has a sea of gold and silver, the ministers and doctors in Nanjing City, and even Jiangnan Shilin, I don't know how many people have received their benefits. This time, the Zheng family sent such an important person over, we are only afraid that we will be under such and such pressure, and you should be prepared for this, general. ”
