Chapter 121: Bring it up

He Xi and Lu Zhongheng argued repeatedly. In the end, He Xi said: "I remember that Hou Ye said that all policies in Nanyang depend on me, did Hou Ye forget." ”

Lu Zhongheng said: "Okay, I promise, but you also have to agree, you can't go in person." Send someone else. ”

He Xi said; "Whoever goes, there are many things to go, and you need to make a decision immediately, who can make a decision, it's not you, it's me. You're going to sit in the Old Port, and I'm not going to do it? ”

"I don't care, I love whoever I love. You can't go anyway. Lu Zhongheng said.

He Xi also woke up at this moment that the reason why Lu Zhongheng opposed it was because he was worried that his death in Java would implicate him. He Xi said; "Don't worry, I'll write down the note, even if something happens to me in Java, it has nothing to do with you."

Such an idiot's words, Lu Zhongheng didn't bother to answer at all.

If Zhu Yuanzhang believes in an inexplicable paperwork, then he is not Zhu Yuanzhang.

However, after determining the cause, it is enough to prescribe the right medicine.

He Xi pondered for a moment and said, "That's it." I took Fang Guan with me, and I took all thirteen gunboats with me. When the time comes, I will live on the ship and not go ashore, Fang Guan is not a fool, since he has already been fooled once, he will never be fooled a second time. With these thirteen ships here, at sea, no matter what problems arise, they can escape back. ”

Lu Zhongheng breathed a sigh of relief and said, "You promise." ”

He Xi said: "I promise." Then he said in a slightly softened tone; Actually, Master Hou also thinks too highly of me. My life is more important than Java, no matter how great the credit is, if there is no life, there will be nothing. ”

Lu Zhongheng believed He Xi's words and said, "Yes, barefoot people are not afraid of wearing shoes." But you and I are now wearing shoes. There are some things you don't want to do. It's hard to explain, since you said so, then I won't stop you. ”

"It's just that there are more sailors, and there are fewer people on land. It is estimated that there will only be 3,000 people. ”

"Of course, if three thousand people are used. The same can be flattened in Java. ”

He Xi's heart moved, this is the question he has been thinking about, that is, whether a small number of Ming troops can pry the situation in Java. But he wasn't the one who had ever been on the battlefield. I couldn't think of how to solve it for a while, but Lu Zhongheng said so. There must be a way.

He Xi said; "So what to do?"

Lu Zhongheng said; "The army I brought over is among the more than 300 guards in the Ming Dynasty, and it is also considered to be in the middle and upper ranks. Although it is not as good as the Beijing camp, there are still a hundred battles of border troops. But it's about the same. But in Nanyang, to be honest, there is a bit of a bully. I estimate that the most elite men and horses in the Javanese army are no match for them. ”

"You must know that when the two armies are fighting, it is not a comparison of numbers, even if it is a comparison of numbers, there is not no one in the hands of the King of the West, and there is no problem in parrying it temporarily. Just in the key position, with these three thousand people to strike, it is like two hand-to-hand combat, one is bare-handed, big, and the other, small, but suddenly turns out a dagger. Who wins and who loses? ”

"Hundreds of thousands of troops, listen very well, in the end, the battle still has to be fought by one person. The battlefield that a general can control is only a few thousand, and any more will be chaotic. The flag and drum music cannot be reached, and it must be managed separately. ”

"Hundreds of thousands of troops are just a few dozen battlefields. An elite force far beyond them, breaking through in a battle, followed by a large army, victory is assured. ”

"There's a catch, though."

He Xi was stunned for a moment and said, "Is the King of the West reliable?" ”

"Yes." Lu Zhongheng said: "After all, 3,000 people are not heavenly soldiers and generals, and they cannot be killed by a plan if they are surrounded by hundreds of thousands of people. Whether I can show my back to the king of the west, this is what I am not sure about. ”

He Xi also understood Lu Zhongheng's worries.

There are two concerns, the first of which is that it is a trap. The king of the west and the king of Wulu were in conspire.

The second worry is once a big win. The East Javanese army is defeated, will the king of the West be backstabbed? After all, the Majapahit Empire had traditions.

He Xi said; "This is up to the King of the West to give a guarantee."

------

King Xi sat in front of He Xi and Lu Zhongheng again.

He Xi said; "Our dynasty adheres to the righteousness, since His Royal Highness is the prince of Java, even if King Wulu cannot change it, my dynasty is willing to uphold justice for His Highness. It's just, how can I trust you. ”

The king of the West said, "I have come alone, can't I? ”

He Xi said: "I am a state of etiquette, and I can't do anything to kill an envoy." Even if the King of the West comes openly, we can guarantee that the King of the West will go openly. There are things that are also talked about on the battlefield. That's not enough. ”

After all, the chaos of the South Seas. Da Ming wants to be face-saving in the end.

There are many things that break through the bottom line, and you can't do it.

Especially someone like King Xi who took the initiative to come over. I definitely don't want him to have an accident. In fact, King Xi is not unaware of this, he suddenly came here, it was a risk. But there is also a great deal of certainty, otherwise it would not have appeared directly. I didn't even send someone to test it.

The King of the West said, "I see. ”

Then he got up and left. Leave He Xi and Lu Zhongheng here.

After a while, the king of the West calmly came with a box. With a somewhat complicated look, he placed the box on the table and opened it.

He Xi was taken aback, because there was a human head inside, the head of a woman, looking at the jewelry in her hair, the gold rings on her nose and ears. Definitely not ordinary people. And it was just cut down, and the blood hadn't dried yet.

He Xi said: "This is ------? ”

King Xi said calmly: "This is my wife, the princess of the Majapahit Empire, the only daughter of King Wulu, now, can you trust my sincerity?" ”

In fact, the king of the west is not as calm as he seems.

The reason why he has his current status comes from this princess from the beginning. Of course, his family is also very powerful. However, the authority of King Wulu in Java could not be shaken after all. His family power alone is not enough to support him to this day.

He also had a honeymoon period with the princess for a while.

Especially when King Wulu's illegitimate son had not yet appeared.

When this person, that is, the king of the east, appeared. The whole atmosphere in Java has changed. Everything became extremely strange to the king of the west. In the face of such pressure, King Xi couldn't sleep all night, but the princess couldn't understand this.

After all, even if the King of the West falls, the princess will be fine.

Even the princess often persuaded the king of the west to back down.

But can the situation in Java be solved by his concession? If he backs down, many people behind him will abandon him. He can only be subject to the hands of the East King. And how could a person like King Xi give his life to others to control?

Between husband and wife, there was a lot of conflict. It's been a cold war.

This time, King Wulu's malice was so obvious. The princess still wants to persuade the king of the west to obey? Isn't this the entire family of King Nasi as a sacrifice to the Majapahit Empire?

Only then did the King of the West know that the princess was the only princess of the Majapahit Empire and had never cared about his wife's status. Or this is the only and only man who is the only man.

But even at this point, King Xi didn't want to kill the princess.

It's just that he put the princess under house arrest and didn't allow her to leave his control, and didn't want her to use her identity to do things. But now he has no choice.

Empathy, King Xi also understands the concerns of the Ming people.

The two sides have already met each other. But the relationship between Weng and his son-in-law is still there, and the Ming army is involved in it, if you do it halfway, hey, your Weng son-in-law has reconciled. What about us?

There may be other ways to win the trust of the Ming, but it is too slow.

This is the fastest.

At the moment of the princess's death, it was impossible not to have a war between East Java and West Java. King Wulu has a son and a daughter in his life, although the son is eyeballs, but the daughter He Zeng is not the pearl of the palm. If such a thing happens, if King Wulu does not kill the Xiwang family, this breath will be difficult to eliminate.

In an instant, He Xi also understood this truth, he and Lu Zhongheng glanced at each other, and also understood the other party's thoughts.

This approach of the King of the West certainly eliminates the possibility that this is a trap. But the other one may have increased considerably. That is the possibility of the king of the west stabbing Daming in the back.

King Xi is a ruthless person, his wife doesn't care, what else does he care?
