Chen Jisheng's place of residence is slightly stronger than that of Mao Wenlong, but it is also a shack, in which a simple stove is lit and charcoal is burned. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Li Yuanqing entered the shack, a warm wind hit, and it turned out that the ninth lady was also there, she was wearing a shabby men's cotton jacket, and hurriedly gave Li Yuanqing a deep blessing.

Although she is now with Chen Jisheng, she deeply understands that if it were not for Li Yuanqing, she would have turned into a handful of loess in Zhenjiang City.

Now it is not what it used to be, Li Yuanqing did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly returned the salute to this woman, "Hello sister-in-law." ”

The woman nodded, and went out.

Chen Jisheng said with a smile: "Yuanqing is no one else, it's freezing outside, don't go out." Go, pour us two bowls of hot water. ”

The woman hurriedly poured two bowls of hot water, placed them in front of the two of them, and obediently went to the stove to collect firewood.

Chen Jisheng sighed and said, "Feng'er followed me to suffer. ”

Li Yuanqing said: "Big brother, this kind of thing is beyond our control. Jiannu is powerful, and there is no way to do it. ”

Chen Jisheng nodded, "In the two battles of Zhenjiang and Longchuan, our army suffered heavy losses. ”

Li Yuanqing said: "Big brother, how many dingkou does our army still have here?" ”

Chen Jisheng sighed, "There are probably less than 20,000 people." However, there are less than 5,000 young and strong, and most of them are old and weak women, children and children. ”

Of course, Li Yuanqing understood the meaning of Chen Jisheng's words, and the rest of the young and strong people were all killed in the Battle of Longchuan......

Both fell silent.

Although Chen Jisheng is a little cautious and likes the world of flowers, he understands better that Mao Wenlong is his root, and without Mao Wenlong, even if he has a natural talent, he is just a rootless wanderer.

Regarding Chen Jisheng's temperament, Li Yuanqing already knew very well.

Frankly speaking, it is human nature for men to like women and beautiful women, after all, no one is a saint, and this is not a fault, just a degree.

Looking at Chen Jisheng's attitude towards this woman, presumably, he has already moved his true feelings.

At this point, Li Yuanqing is very supportive, a man can only start a business when he settles down, and if a woman is concerned, the responsibility on the man's shoulders will be heavier, and the sense of responsibility will also increase.

Li Yuanqing's unintentional move can be regarded as a great favor for Chen Jisheng and their dewy couple.

History is always written by the victors.

In later generations, many so-called scholars and brick families made irresponsible remarks about the Dongjiang Group and poured dirty water without a bottom line, and there was a big reason, that is, the later three feudatories.

But in fact, the Manchu canonization was not only the three feudatories, but the four feudatories, headed by the king of Pingxi in Yunnan, and next, Kong Youde in Guangxi, Geng Jingzhong in Fujian, and Shang Ke in Guangdong.

But Kong Youde did not have a son, only one daughter, Kong Sizhen, who was adopted by the Manchu royal family since she was a child, and the Guangxi domain could not continue, so Kong Youde maintained his loyalty to the Manchus until he died in battle.

But who knows that Kong Youde's wife was snatched up when he was in trouble and was about to get confused?

If Kong Youde had planned to betray the Ming Dynasty from the beginning, would he still be like a 'Puritan'?

Don't forget, Kong Youde, who was born in the Tieling military household, his father and brother and many relatives all died at the hands of Jiannu, and they also shared the sky with Houjin.

At this time, looking at Chen Jisheng's attitude towards this woman, Li Yuanqing also felt a lot more at ease, even if it was for himself, he would try his best to change the status quo of Mao Wenlong's headquarters.

"Yuanqing, what are your plans next?" Chen Jisheng also came to his senses at this time and looked at Li Yuanqingdao.

Li Yuanqing slowly exhaled a breath of turbidity, "Big brother, on my side, it depends on the general's attitude." If the general wants to fight to the death with the Houjin army, I naturally can't run away from it. ”

Chen Jisheng nodded, sighed and said, "It's not wise to fight to the death now." ”

Li Yuanqing instantly understood that Chen Jisheng probably also wanted to seek a way back.

If Chen Jisheng, who Mao Wenlong trusts the most, can point his eyes to Phi Dao, I am afraid that it will be much easier for Mao Wenlong to accept it.

Thinking about it, Li Yuanqing hurriedly said: "Big brother, the sage said, take a step back and open the sky." Attacking the enemy's strength with one's own shortcomings is by no means the work of a wise man. ”

Chen Jisheng couldn't help but smile bitterly: "What can I do now?" We no longer have a place to stand on the cone, even if we fight for our lives, we have to take Zhenjiang back. ”

Li Yuanqing couldn't help sighing, although Chen Jisheng was already a rare visionary in this era, the limitations of the times made him still unable to turn his eyes to the sea.

"Big brother, although Zhenjiang is good, it is too eye-catching. With the defeat of the Tong family in Houjin, I am afraid that the defense of Zhenjiang will be doubled. In fact, except for Zhenjiang, we are not nowhere to go. ”

Li Yuanqing said, carefully looking at Chen Jisheng's face.

Chen Jisheng was really moved by Li Yuanqing's words, and said busily: "Yuanqing, what do you think?" Speak up. ”

Looking at Chen Jisheng's eager appearance, Li Yuanqing deliberately lowered his voice and said in a low voice: "Big brother, I heard that in the south of the Iron Mountain, there is an island ......."

…………

Li Yuanqing did not stay in Chen Jisheng's shack overnight, after all, Chen Jisheng was already a family man.

returned to Zhang Pan, Chen Zhong was also there, however, Zhang Pan was in a similar situation to Chen Jisheng, seeing that Chen Zhong was still ignorant, Li Yuanqing hurriedly found an excuse to pull Chen Zhong away.

Come out, Chen Zhong reacted at this time, and said with some embarrassment: "Yuanqing, then, then where are we going to sleep?" ”

Li Yuanqing smiled, "Let's go, go find Mao Chenglu." ”

The two came to Mao Chenglu, tonight, Mao Chenglu was on duty at night, and the two happened to occupy his place.

When I woke up, it was already noon, and the two of them came overnight, and they were really tired.

Li Yuanqing walked out of the shack and washed his face with the snowflakes on the shack, at this time, a personal soldier hurriedly ran over and said happily: "Lord Li, are you awake?" The general has been waiting for you and Lord Chen for a long time. Make sure I see you awake before I call you. ”

Chen Zhong just walked out, and he didn't care about washing his face, so he hurriedly said, "Yuanqing, let's go to the general first." ”

The two came to Mao Wenlong's shack, Chen Jisheng, Mao Chenglu, Zhang Pan and seven or eight generals were there.

Mao Wenlong looked at Li Yuanqing and the two with a smile, "Sit down." ”

Li Yuanqing and the two hurriedly saluted and sat down.

Mao Wenlong said: "The reason why I waited for Chen Zhong and Yuanqing to come over was that an important decision was announced. ”

As he spoke, Mao Wenlong glanced at everyone.

All the officers looked at Mao Wenlong expectantly.

Mao Wenlong said: "It has been decided that our army will move to Phi Island as soon as possible. ”

Li Yuanqing was stunned for a moment, and then couldn't help but be overjoyed, and hurriedly knelt on the ground and kowtowed: "The general is wise." ”

Although the officers were puzzled, Li Yuanqing was like this, and they were busy kowtowing, "The general is wise." ”

Mao Wenlong smiled, "Okay, let's get up." You can go your separate ways and get ready. This must be done as soon as possible. ”

All the officers nodded yes and left in turn.

Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong were just about to leave, but Chen Jisheng smiled and said, "You two, wait a minute, the general still has something to say." ”

The two hurriedly stayed and returned to the shack.

Mao Wenlong smiled: "Yuanqing, you are so bold. ”

Li Yuanqing was taken aback, and hurriedly knelt down on one knee, "General, I'm ......"

As he spoke, he looked at Chen Jisheng like a helper.

Chen Zhong also said: "General, what mistake did Yuan Qing make?" I beg the general to spare him for the sake of Yuan Qing's loyalty and countless contributions to our army. ”

Chen Jisheng smiled and said nothing, Mao Wenlong also had a smile on his face, Li Yuanqing instantly understood that this should be Mao Wenlong scaring him, it was not a bad thing, and he hurriedly said: "General, the shoulders of the lowly position are small, if there is any big matter, you must not put it on the small shoulders of the lowly position." ”

Mao Wenlong and Chen Jisheng couldn't help laughing, and Chen Zhong also reacted, "General, Lord Chen, you, what are you doing?" ”

Mao Wenlong said with a smile: "Yuanqing, I know that you have always wanted my army headquarters to move to the sea. Master Chen told me what you said last night. ”

Chen Jisheng smiled: "Yuanqing, don't blame me. If I don't say it's your idea, the general doesn't believe it, and he can't make up his mind. Big deal, when you get to Phi Island, I'll treat you to a drink. ”

Li Yuanqing realized at this time, and he was happy, but he had to pretend to be a good baby.

After saying this, Mao Wenlong's face became solemn, "Yuanqing, Chen Zhong, what are your plans for the future, you two?" ”

Mao Wenlong's words were not fast, but they were very majestic.

After passing the Battle of Zhenjiang, especially after Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong gave him six thousand taels of silver, he also had another concept in his heart.

Chen Zhong said: "General, I don't have any plans for the time being, it's all up to the general's arrangement." ”

Mao Wenlong shook his head with a smile and looked at Li Yuanqing, "Yuanqing, what are your plans?" ”

Li Yuanqing understood that it was time to reward meritorious deeds, and hurriedly knelt down on one knee and said: "General, everything is subject to the general's arrangement." ”

Mao Wenlong couldn't help but laugh and scolded, "Don't pour me ecstasy soup." Say what you are going to do. ”

Li Yuanqing smiled, and his face became solemn, "General, I really feel a lot when I go to Guanglu Island." If our army wants to go into the sea, one island is obviously not enough. After all, even if it is a large island, its resources are limited, and it cannot afford such a population of our army. ”

Chen Jisheng interrupted: "Yuanqing, our army does not have a large population now. ”

Li Yuanqing said with a smile: "Not much now, it doesn't mean that there will be less in the future." As long as the general can stabilize the foundation on Phi Island, it will point out the direction for the people of Liaodi, but all the people who are not willing to be oppressed by Jiannu will inevitably come to the general. Therefore, I assert that the population after our army will definitely increase. ”

Chen Jisheng couldn't help but smile and nodded to Mao Wenlong.

Mao Wenlong looked at Li Yuanqing with a smile, waiting for Li Yuanqing's next words.

Li Yuanqing said again: "General, there are many islands in the Liaohai Sea, and the population is not small, so it is better for us to use it than to let Jiannu waste it there." If we can connect all the islands in the Liaohai Sea into a line, when the time comes, whether to attack or defend will be completely decided by our army. Jiannu is not good at water warfare, and at sea, they can't help us at all. At that time, whether it is Liaoxi, Liaonan, or Liaodong, as long as the general gives an order, the old slave will probably blow up his head. ”

Mao Wenlong nodded, he had been in Liao for a long time, so he naturally understood the feasibility of what Li Yuanqing said, but although the future is beautiful, how difficult is it to really do it?

He looked at Li Yuanqing, and suddenly smiled: "Yuanqing, tell me about yourself." What are your plans? ”

Li Yuanqing smiled, "I have little qualifications and young age, so let's let Brother Chen come first." ”

Chen Zhong couldn't help but smile bitterly, "General, if possible, I want to guard Guanglu Island." Guanglu Island is located in the key point of southern Liaoning, which can be attacked and defended, and is really a strategic location. However, if there is a choice, I want to give this opportunity to Yuan Qing. He's going to do better than me. As for me, the big and small Changshan Island, or the deer island, the ocean island, etc., are fine. But best, I can still stay with the general. ”

Mao Wenlong looked at Li Yuanqing with a smile, "You two, do you still have something to hide from me?" ”

The two hurriedly kowtowed, "General, there is absolutely no more." ”

Mao Wenlong smiled: "Yuanqing, you and Chen Zhong are both good children. Both of you have a lot of experience going to sea, and I mean, I want to put you out there. Yuanqing, Chen Zhong is the big brother, he let you, then you can choose first. ”
