Chapter Eighty-Six: A Good Show

Zheng Chenggong was not called Zheng Chenggong at this time, which made Zhou Shixian a little uncomfortable. Although this hero died young in the original history and the cause of resisting the Qing Dynasty was unsuccessful. But Zhou Shixian still admired him very much. Now that he meets the real person, he even

There is still a little bit of excitement.

You must know that Zheng Chenggong fought with the Qing army for more than ten years under such difficult conditions, and finally he was able to accumulate strength and sneak attack on Nanjing. The total number of Manchu and Han officers of the Qing army killed by his army was more than that of "two defeats to become a king".

The army under Li Dingguo's command that "shocked the world" was even larger. Of course, the army under Zheng Chenggong's command had not killed the vassal clans such as Kong Youde and Nikan.

However, there were only two isolated islands on the southeast coast as stable bases. For more than ten years, the battles were getting stronger and stronger. In the end, nearly 100,000 troops were drawn out. It can be said that it is unprecedented and unprecedented. As for those who only rely on success or failure.

People who talk about heroes probably don't even know the most important battles in Zheng Chenggong's life.

After all, only the ultimate winner is perfect, and can become a god under publicity and packaging.

Heroes and tycoons are just human beings, and Zheng Chenggong is undoubtedly the latter, a failed tycoon. If he really drives out the Tartars, restores China, and establishes the Zheng family dynasty, maybe he can become a "god"

.

Of course, now that Zhou Shixian has come to this world, Zheng Chenggong will soon be called Zheng Chenggong, otherwise the taste will be wrong. This is absolutely unacceptable to Zhou Shixian. If Mr. Guo surname follows him, he will definitely succeed.

In the final analysis, Zhou Shixian relied on the vision from later generations and stood on the shoulders of the 400-year-old civilization with the fastest development of mankind. This was the source of his confidence. Otherwise, he would never be able to compare with these outstanding people.

Let me just say that simply because of his military academy career, Zhou Shixian had memorized almost all the mountain and river topographic maps of the entire country at the county level and above out of his hobby. This was incomparable to the abstract maps of this era.

Although many of the things he memorized cannot be directly used in actual combat today, it will give him an advantage in grand strategy, and the map mapping technology he learned is perfect for this era.

The dimensionality reduction hit.

Zheng Chenggong didn't know this, but after hearing Zhou Shixian's plan, he showed an admiring smile on his face and sighed in his heart - this prince-in-law is so calculating and insidious, he will definitely be able to do great things in the future. After all, just by figuring it out clearly

It is not easy to smuggle with your own fleet.

The reason why Zheng Chenggong was feeling emotional just now was not because Zhou Shixian knew about the joint smuggling between his family and the ministers of the DPRK and China, but because the other party knew the specific value and time of the goods.

You know, everyone knows what the Zheng family does behind the scenes. But what exactly they do, few people know.

"So, is my consort's plan feasible?" Zhou Shixian asked, raising his eyebrows.

Zheng Chenggong looked at the consort in front of him who was younger than himself, and immediately raised his hands and clasped his fists to flatter him: "The consort is really a god, this plan is perfect."

After Zhou Shixian heard this, he took another sip of wine and said: "Then this matter is settled. When the ship comes back, you can do some more operations and you can get 300,000 taels of silver. Don't worry about Jinyiwei.

, two corrupt officials, it is simply easy to deal with them."

Zheng Chenggong originally wanted to ask one more question, but now that he heard what Zhou Shixian said, he knew he shouldn't talk too much, so he immediately agreed.

"Mr. Zheng, are you interested in following my consort to see the real battlefield in a few days?" Zhou Shixian looked at the person in front of him and asked again.

"The Tatars are coming?"

Zheng Chenggong was suddenly shocked, and then whispered to himself: "How could it be so fast? It's only been less than two months..."

"It's not Tatars, it's a good show." Zhou Shixian laughed immediately. He suddenly thought that bringing an outsider with him might save him from possible sanctions from Emperor Chongzhen.

"A good show?" Zheng Chenggong looked puzzled, but he didn't dare to ask more questions. After all, seeing Zhou Shixian's pretentious manner, he thought it was some military secret.

Although Zheng Chenggong is very arrogant and not as groveling as others, he also knows the right thing to do and he will not ask questions that should not be asked.

"I can't tell you yet. If you want to go and see it, my consort will naturally send someone to inform you when the time comes. Just take my consort's boat and go together. If you don't want to, then just don't go." Zhou Shixian did not let go.

, just playing hard to get, how could he miss such a great opportunity and not show off his strength?

After all, what Zhou Shixian is doing is to rebuild the confidence of the entire Ming Dynasty. He must make those ministers, military leaders, and local powerful factions realize that he can win, giving them hope and confidence.

Only in this way, these people will not surrender to the Qing Dynasty as easily as in the original history, nor will they wait and see all the time, and will they actively support the resistance to the Qing Dynasty.

Zheng Chenggong paused. He was wondering what Zhou Shixian meant, and he was also worried that the other party was setting a trap for him. From the three hundred thousand taels of silver to going to the "show" now, it might be a trap.

It may be due to the wealth and maritime trade status accumulated by his Zheng family over the years.

After all, Zheng Chenggong is also a thoughtful person. He doesn't believe that pie will fall from the sky. He is not the kind of person who has never seen the world and forgets about it after just giving him a small profit. Although Zhou Shixian is the prince-in-law,

For him, it is not entirely trustworthy.

Everyone is a thousand-year-old fox, Liaozhai? Why are you pretending to be innocent?

Zhou Shixian saw that Zheng Chenggong was hesitating, so he immediately changed his explanation, and then added: "If you are worried about Qian Qianyi's complaint, you can name me as your consort. When the country is facing a national crisis, a man should be on the battlefield and carry these things all day long.

Eight-part essay, what's the point of taking that bird's-eye examination? If you come, I will also take you to see what a strong army means, and you will know how to deal with the situation in the world from now on."

When Zheng Chenggong heard this, he couldn't help but be shocked. He might not believe it when he heard it from someone else, but from the consort Zhou Shixian, who brought hundreds of soldiers and horses from the capital, and finally escorted the emperor to Nanjing, it turned into thousands of soldiers and horses.

, it is said that Zhou Shixian, who killed more than a dozen people on the road, said that he had no doubts.

Well, after some planning by Zhou Shixian, he not only killed the rogue bandits, but also beheaded several Tatars who invaded, although that was when he was twelve or thirteen years old.

Zheng Chenggong didn't believe the latter part, but believed the former part. But he didn't expect that the former part was also exaggerated several times.

Moreover, Zhou Shixian's words also successfully aroused Zheng Chenggong's interest. He had long since stopped wanting to read this bird's book, although he could easily surpass others in reading. But Zheng Chenggong was more interested in the battlefield, especially as Zhou Shixian's words also hinted

Gave him some information, which made him feel relieved.

"Then I have to thank my consort, and I will obey the orders of my consort." Zheng Chenggong finally made a decision.

"That's right, that's what a man should do." Zhou Shixian laughed immediately after his plan succeeded.

Now that the matter has been settled and the two of them are in this romantic place, it is natural for them to call the top oiran, then play music and dance. That night, both Zhou Shixian and Zheng Chenggong grew up a lot.

In the next few days, Zhou Shixian continued to spend time in the "Nanjing Ordnance Bureau". While participating in the establishment of the Ordnance Bureau's systems and regulations, he continued to improve his army planning and agricultural war reserve system planning. These are all to be done in the next two to three years.

He must make preparations as soon as possible. Of course, in addition to this, he will occasionally enter the palace to participate in some government affairs.

However, Emperor Chongzhen is currently reducing his influence in the court, so there are not many such opportunities. If Chongzhen could not find a second general who can shoulder the important task of resisting the Qing Dynasty and exterminating the traitors, I am afraid that Zhou Shixian's influence in the army

He also wanted to cut it off.

That was really digging your own grave. Fortunately, Chongzhen was a man who had lost his country after all. In the military field, he was much more stable than before. At least he would not trust or kill anyone casually.

In fact, if he had enough time, Zhou Shixian could slowly deal with the opponent and win the trust of this suspicious emperor. But now he only has a few months, so he can only choose this fastest method. As long as the army is in his hands

If you hold it, the situation will not get out of control.

However, if there was enough time, why would Zhou Shixian take Chongzhen and flee?

Wouldn't it be great if he randomly picked a weak and easy-to-control prince and brought him to Nanjing, spent two or three years directly reorganizing the court, and carried out the Northern Expedition to destroy the Qing Dynasty?

After Zhou Shixian left the "Nanjing Ordnance Bureau", he continued to organize scientific examination opportunities, secretly met with several rookies, and established relationships with Li Banghua, Ni Yuanlu, Qian Qianyi and others.

These people have mixed reviews in their original history. They are even similar to Qian Qianyi and have a dark history of being a traitor. However, the water is too cold and the skin is too itchy. It is purely a frame-up by a low-level joker. The time and place are different.

sorry.

At this time, Zhou Shixian not only wanted to establish authority in the army, he also wanted to open up the relationship between the DPRK and China as soon as possible. As for the rookies in the imperial examination who represented local families, he wanted to win over them with the help of several close ministers.

of.

Although the ministers in the Nanjing court will not be wiped out, there will undoubtedly be a large vacancy. What kind of people are placed in these positions is related to the future operation of the entire court. Zhou Shixian must intervene. Otherwise, wait for him to take his place.

When my father-in-law was running the country, there was great trouble.

More than ten days passed quickly, and Zheng Chenggong also boarded Zhou Shixian's secret ship to Yangzhou. It would take two months for the sea trade ship to return to Nanjing, and the two people's "money arbitrage plan" had to continue to wait.

However, Qian Qianyi's attitude surprised Zheng Chenggong. He did not expect that this young prince-in-law would be so powerful and actually hooked up with Qian Qianyi behind his back. Although Zheng Chenggong didn't like this teacher very much, he was very concerned about the other party's attitude.

The influence is quite recognized.
