Chapter 351: Martial arts are not as good as civil fighting
Peng Yue and Qiu Qingge have been playing in Hangzhou for more than a month, and Zhao Wenhua is finally ready to leave, of course, this is still under Hu Zongxian's strong persuasion, although Peng Yue doesn't know what method Hu Zongxian used, but Peng Yue estimated that he scared him with the tragedy of the Anti-Japanese War...
Of course, Zhao Wenhua adhered to the principle of "thieves do not go empty", but in the process of going south to see the army this time, he embezzled a lot of military silver, and the relevant officials dared to be angry but did not dare to speak out because of Yan Song's godfather.

Peng Yue didn't know about this section, otherwise he would have gone to the court and dismissed Zhao Wenhua for investigation. You must know that Yan Song's greed for ink and military silver has to be unlucky, you kid actually has such a fat guts? I'm really impatient to live...
But now Peng Yue is indeed very happy, because Zhao Wenhua, a disgusting thing, is finally gone, and he is going to discuss the anti-Japanese plan with Hu Zongxian.
"Hu Shilang, how is your situation here in the past few days since I was away?" , After returning from a trip, Peng Yue, who was sitting there, looked refreshed.
"Don't hide it from Master Peng, the situation is not very optimistic, basically... There are many defeats and few victories...", Hu Zongxian said on the side.
"How many defeats and fewer wins? Not... It seems that this gang of thieves is still quite difficult to exterminate...", Peng Yue said as he took a sip of tea, looking unhurried.
"Actually, I didn't expect this group of pirates to be so difficult to deal with...", Hu Zongxian sighed and said, "Actually, the lower officials thought that they had done... It's better than Lord Zhang, but I didn't expect... It's going to be like this..."
When Hu Zongxian said this, he shook his head again and again, it seemed that he was really annoyed, "Yu Dayou, Qi Jiguang and others are indeed fighting desperately, and I have also blamed them many times, but it doesn't work..."
"Hu Shilang doesn't have to be anxious, maybe the method is not right...", Peng Yue put down the teacup in his hand and looked at Hu Zongxian directly, "The Japanese are fighting hard, why do we have to fight with them, sometimes it's better to use your brains more." ”
"What do you mean by this?"
"I'll give Hu Shilang a move, you can think about it, if you think it's okay, try the effect." , Peng Yue said with a smile.
"Lord Peng has been distraught, please let Master Peng speak up quickly, hehe..."
"Hu Shilang, you must know that the Japanese Kou did not start to appear in recent years, if you want to trace it back, it should have been in the Taizu period, right?"
"What Master Peng said is very true, but the scale was small at that time, and there was not so much chaos, so the imperial court didn't take this seriously...", Hu Zongxian replied in a low voice.
"Yes, but now that the Japanese are in trouble, there are inherent factors in the increasing chaos of the Japanese country, but the participation of many of our people is also a big problem." , Peng Yue calmly analyzed.
"Yes, these people are really damned!" , Hu Zongxian scolded indignantly.
"If it's just a group of Diao people, it would be easy to solve, but now we are facing a group of enemies with brains...", Peng Yue frowned and said, "So my opinion is to deal with this group of people first, so that the overall situation can be determined." ”
"Yes, that's true...", Hu Zongxian nodded approvingly, "Deal with these people, and you can also set an example for other people, so as not to lead more people astray..."
"Another point, if you solve them, the remaining widows don't have any brains, they can't even recognize the road, and they only have brute force left, so it will be convenient to solve it..."
"Yes, haha...", Hu Zongxian also laughed when he heard this, "Then I don't know if Master Peng has a good plan now?" ”
"There is no good strategy, it's still okay to discuss it...", Peng Yue said this, and also put away the smile on Fang Cai's face, "The main problem now is that these gangs and the Japanese people have joined forces to carry out sea robbery and smuggling to Japan, and what we have to do now is to kill this gang of traitors first!" ”
"Traitor? Oh... Yes, it's a traitor, haha...", Hu Zongxian couldn't help but laugh when he heard this chic title.
However, Peng Yue didn't have any jokes now, and continued to say with a straight face, "As far as I know, there are two main forces that are very powerful now, one of which is called Wang Zhi, and the other is Xu Hai, Chen Dong and Ma Ye, right?" ”
"Yes, that's the case...", Hu Zongxian was a little curious about Peng Yue's understanding of Peng Yue in such detail, after all, after this big boss came, he didn't seem to do anything except for a trip to Hangzhou, but he knew a lot, which couldn't help but make Hu Zongxian admire Peng Yue even more.
"But among them, Wang Zhi's power is greater...", Hu Zongxian also dragged the map at this time, and elaborated seriously, "This Wang Zhi was also engaged in ordinary trade before, but later he felt that smuggling to the Japanese State was more profitable, so he began to smuggle goods to the Japanese State." Because the imperial court explicitly forbade trade with the Wa Kingdom, his profits were very large, and his power grew rapidly. ”
"And now he's doing a part-time robbery at sea, isn't he?" , Peng Yue asked on the side.
"Yes, and it's very rampant...", Hu Zongxian couldn't help but be a little angry when he said this, "Because he also smuggled firearms, artillery and other things, he organized private armed forces, with nearly 10,000 people and rich experience in naval warfare. They all suffered a lot at their hands..."
"It seems that there is really a long way to go to eliminate them...", Peng Yue sighed helplessly.
"Yes, Wang Zhi's forces... It's already too powerful...", Hu Zongxian echoed and sighed.
"Then stabilize him first, and then find a way to deal with Xu Hai's forces...", Peng Yue smiled lightly, and seemed to have regained his calm.
"How to stabilize Wang Zhi?" , Hu Zongxian looked helpless, you must know that Wang Zhi is a rich man, if you want to wrap him a red envelope, you can get it, so that he will not make a fuss, it is unrealistic.
"Negotiate with him...", Peng Yue said word by word, "Wang Zhi is just a businessman, just a part-time pirate, presumably every time he smuggles goods to Japan, his loss is not small, if we can give him the legal right to trade and let him monopolize trade with Japan, this condition should be able to meet him, right?" ”
"It's... If he could meet this condition, he would definitely agree, but...", Hu Zongxian sighed lightly, his face was embarrassed, "But the imperial court will definitely not agree, and we... I can't make my way in this matter..."
"I didn't say that we must fulfill our promise...", Peng Yue said with a smile, "It's just to stabilize him temporarily through the terms of negotiation, besides... I would also like to take this opportunity to see if I can ask the emperor to agree to restore the right to normal trade and trade with the Japanese state. ”
It turned out that Peng Yue had been angry about Zhu Houxi's ban on trade with the Japanese, obviously to make their money, what was wrong, it must be the Ming Dynasty to take advantage, if this time can use Wang Zhi's matter as an excuse to make Zhu Houyu agree to this matter, it will be a joy and joy.
"Oh... Good idea! Hu Zongxian also smiled at this time, "Then next, let's prepare to negotiate with Wang Zhi!" ”
"Preparing for negotiation is also a troublesome matter, we must show sincerity, only by gaining his trust, it is possible to stabilize him...", Peng Yue calmly analyzed.
"What Master Peng said is extremely true...", Hu Zongxian nodded in agreement, "Then we will release Wang Zhi's family from prison first and entertain them well..."
"Well, it's good to do this...", Peng Yue frowned, "but the most important thing is to let him know this, so you still need to send two envoys to the Wa Kingdom to convey our thoughts to Wang Zhi, and remember to bring a letter from his family..."
"Well, good...", Hu Zongxian looked sideways and pondered, "But since that's the case, then we have to set our conditions higher, and ask him to help us clear up the chaos!" ”
"Yes, that's it, it's the best!" , Peng Yue was overjoyed when he heard this, "It seems that Hu Shilang is also a shrewd businessman, haha..." )
