Since entering Cochin, they have not been warmly received by the Zheng family.

Except for Zheng Kai who came over and extorted a large amount of gold, no high-level official ever took care of them.

If no one cares about it, it means that you are not taken seriously, and if you are not taken seriously, your mood will naturally not get better.

Pu Ming's mood has not been good, they have been here for so long, and they have always been stationed in a wasteland by the river. It's not that they don't want to go out and wander around the city, but there has always been an army of about 1,000 men stationed not far away. Nominally to keep them safe, in reality it's to spy on them.

In order to be tempted, Pu Mingsheng sent a few people out in the name of going into the city to procure, but he was quickly stopped, saying that no one could enter and leave at will without an order from his superiors. If there is any need, they should report it first, and they will report it to their superiors before making a decision. Then he sent food for a few days and asked them for money.

For this reason, Pu Ming and Sha Yuan also had an awkward quarrel. Sha Yuan was also so angry that he felt that he had been greatly insulted. But Zheng Kai, the only person he knew and spoke, went on the expedition, and Zheng Jie didn't see his interest at all.

Under Sha Yuan's persuasion, Pu Ming reluctantly compromised with reality.

In fact, there seems to be no better way than to compromise, at least stay here without facing the encirclement and suppression of the Ming army, and there is still hope for survival. If there is no compromise, I am afraid that tens of thousands of people on both sides will have to face death.

But Pu Mingming and Sha Yuan still kept an eye on it, and at night, taking advantage of the unpreparedness of the soldiers patrolling the periphery, they quietly released a few soldiers and quietly hid them. So as soon as the army sent by Zheng Jie left the city, they got the news.

Since your own tolerance has not won the trust of the other party, you should simply not do anything and forget about it.

At this time, the opinions of the two immediately unified, and they each summoned their henchmen and generals to briefly explain the current situation. Everyone came all the way to life and death, and when they heard that the Zheng family was going to kill them, they were all caught.

"Grass grandma, what the hell! Fight with them!"

"That's it, the big fart is still very proud, and the officials of the Ming Dynasty didn't dare to do this to us at the beginning! Something!"

"Yes! Can't beat Da Ming, and can't beat these wild monkeys with crossed toes!?"

For a while, everyone in the tent was filled with righteous indignation, and they expressed their support for Sha Yuan and Pu's reputation's decision, and they would never be arrested.

"Father, even if you want to break with them, you can't just run away. If we want to gain a foothold here, we must find a way to occupy a few big cities, otherwise we will inevitably end up being exterminated by them if we are not familiar with this place."

Seeing that everyone was only concerned about shouting and killing, Sha Dingzhou put forward his own opinions.

"Not bad. But we can only take one step at a time, and we don't even have a guide. However, when we came, we passed through a lot of places, and when the time came, we saw which city was easy to capture, and we just took it."

"Father, if you want to pick a big city, otherwise we won't be able to fight when they have defense."

"yes."

Sha Yuan nodded. ….

"If only there was a map."

"I have!"

"You have? Where did it come from?" Sha Yuan asked in surprise.

Sha Dingzhou didn't answer, took out a scroll from behind him, carefully took out a pair of scrolls, and spread them on the table made of wooden boxes.

"This—" Sha Yuan and the others reached over to look at the old map in front of them.

Topographically, it is indeed a map of Cochin.

But seeing the words in the lower left corner, a group of people shook their heads speechlessly.

August of the 11th year of Yongle

"It's been more than 200 years?" Pu Mingsheng shouted.

"yes!"

"More than 200 years ago, you can still use it?"

"Isn't that intact?"

"I'm talking about the terrain! This is the map of the political envoy of Jiaozhi back then, not the land under the control of the Zheng Dynasty at present

Fig. Will it work?"

"Can a change of dynasty change the face of a city? Luoyang of the Ming Dynasty has been thousands of years, and I haven't moved to Nanzhili, right? Besides, can we find a more detailed map of our current situation?"

Sha Dingzhou scolded Pu Mingsheng for two sentences, his tone was a little not good, and he also had an expression of looking at *** on his face.

"You..."

Pu's reputation is not stupid, how can he not see Sha Dingzhou's contempt, and he is preparing to go crazy.

"Dingzhou! How can you talk to your uncle!?"

Everyone looked back and found that Sha Dinghai was staring at Sha Dinghai and reprimanding.

Hey, me, you're still training me?

But because of his father's presence, he suppressed his anger and snorted coldly and did not speak again.

At this time, Sha Yuan came out to play a round:

"Lao Pu, now that the strong enemy is on the side, Dingzhou is also anxious. But I think what he said has some truth, the ground on this map may change, but the location of some big cities will not change easily, let's march according to this map, what do you think?"

"No problem!"

A cadre of leaders should be.

"Okay, since everyone has no opinion, then it's decided. Look, where we are now should be Jiaozhou Mansion, and the closest to us is Guangwei. Let's attack here!"

Due to the tight schedule, after making a decision, they went their separate ways.

The soldiers quickly assembled on the periphery, giving the middle of the family to pack their belongings.

The movement here quickly attracted the attention of the Zheng troops stationed not far away, and Mo Yuanhai, the general of the leading army, immediately ordered people to come to their camp to ask questions.

But before he could get to the front of the battle, he was killed by the soldiers' arrows!

Mo Yuanhai waited for a long time, but he didn't wait for the soldiers sent out to come back. There was already a bad guess in his heart, and he once again sent soldiers to inquire about the news, and at the same time sent soldiers to report back to the dragon to ask for support.

This time, the soldiers who had gone to inquire about the news quickly turned back.

"General, these Ming rebels have all packed their things, and it looks like they are leaving here. The brothers who had just been sent out had already been shot to death!"

"Fuck! It's the other way around! The generalissimo expected it to be true, these guys are really not good!"

As soon as the words were spoken, an army rushed towards them in the distance, and it seemed that there were five or six thousand men.

"Retreat! Retreat!"

Mo Yuanhai knew that he was invincible, so he immediately ordered a retreat.

As soon as they ran, Shayuan's men no longer pursued, but turned back to join their own troops and ran west together.

Mo Yuanhai, who had run halfway, saw it and chased after him with others, but he didn't dare to get too close, so he only fell far behind their team.

At this time, Mo Yuanhai was also very helpless, he couldn't follow him.

There is certainly no danger in running back to the dragon, but if you let the other party escape like this and do nothing, the generalissimo will definitely not spare himself.
