Chapter 180 Avoidance
Outside Xiamen Island, among the many dark green islands, six new-style large ships came across the sea with white sails and slowly docked towards the shore of Xiamen Island.
Here, the coastline is curved into the land, and there are Kinmen Island and Xiamen Island above the bay. There are many islands covered with stars, and there are many harbors between the coasts. The terrain is surrounded by mountains and water, which is a great place.
Xiamen City was built during the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty. Nowadays, the blue bricks and ancient tiles are already old, just like the Lu King's Grand Prix that was supported here not long ago.
The Grand Duo Dynasty was compressed by Yongli's troops in Xiamen. The officials and gentry in Nanjing were freed from the power of the Qing Dynasty. They thought that the King of Lu was in a weak position, and if King of Lu was regarded as the righteous, they would definitely become a reliance.
Unexpectedly, King Zhu Yihai of Lu hated Nanjing deeply and knew that he was powerless to turn the world. After receiving the surrender statement, he was unwilling to be so arrogant that he surrendered directly to the Chinese army.
After Zhu Yihai surrendered to the Chinese army, He Tengjiao stationed his troops here. After learning that Wanjun was on the other side of the sea, he waited for Wanjun's arrival here.
Wan Jun captured the big-breasted king Kamazai within half a month in Taiwan and imprisoned Kamazai in Wuxi camp. Zheng Chenggong controlled the Pingke tribe through Kamazai and implemented the strategy of using the singular to make the singular.
After solving the Big Dog Kingdom, the troops finally returned north and set foot on the land of Xiamen.
After He Tengjiao brought the Chinese army to welcome the troops, he returned to the south gate of Xiamen City. Here, Zhu Yihai led Zhang Huangyan and others to hold another surrender ceremony.
Zhu Yihai took off his outer clothes, wore only the middle clothes, and knelt in front of the crowd with a large seal, waiting for the troops to surrender.
In history, Zhu Yihai, the King of Lu, vowed to die and refused to surrender to the Qing Dynasty. With the support of Zhang Huangyan, he always insisted on resisting the Qing Dynasty from Zhejiang to Fujian, which is admirable. Wanjun hurriedly stepped forward a few steps and held Zhu Yihai's hands, "Please get up quickly!"
Zhu Yihaidao, "The criminal minister Zhu Yihai presented seals to the head of the Great Huaxia Empire and begged for surrender."
Wan Jun held Zhu Yihai who was kowtowing, "Don't do this, please get up quickly."
Zhu Yihai stood up and saw Wan Jun's attitude, and secretly remembered something in his heart that he had heard of it. The head of the Chinese army married the daughter of Rui Wang Zhu Changhao.
Both of them are from the Zhu family, Zhu Yihai secretly calculated that according to the Zhu family's genealogy, he was the tenth-generation grandson of Emperor Hongwu, and King Rui Zhu Changhao was the son of Emperor Wanli and the ninth-generation grandson of Emperor Hongwu.
The daughter of King Rui is a peer of him. Now that he is married to Wan Jun, if that is the case, Wan Jun will call him brother-in-law when he sees him?
Zhu Yihai knew it secretly and let it go. No wonder Wan Jun was so polite to him. It turned out that the family was thinking about love.
Wan Jun didn't know what Zhu Yihai was thinking. He looked at everyone behind him, "Who is Zhang Huangyan?"
Behind Zhu Yihai, one of the people bowed, "That's right here!"
It is recorded in history that Zhang Huangyan, who was in charge of King Lu, raised an army to fight against the Qing Dynasty and fought until the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty. With Zhu Yihai, Emperor Yongli, Zheng Chenggong and others, they died one after another, and the anti-Qing forces in the world died or scattered. Seeing that the world was over, Zhang Huangyan disbanded his troops and lived in seclusion in Zhejiang, and was later captured and killed by the Qing army.
Wan Jun looked at Zhang Huangyan and saw that this man was thin, only thirty years old, his eyebrows were like swords, and his eyes were like cold stars. "Very good, please follow me into the city."
When we arrived in Xiamen, the former palace of King Lu, thousands of troops sent out a group of civil and military ministers of King Lu, leaving only King Lu and Zhang Huangyan, "He Tengjiao did not make things difficult for you, right?
”
Zhang Huangyan said, "Governor He is very polite and has no embarrassment."
Wan Jun nodded, "That's good!"
The King of Lu felt more and more that Wanjun was thinking about love, so he stood up and bowed to Wanjun, "I heard that the wife is the daughter of King Rui?"
Wan Jun was still thinking about a breakthrough. When King Lu talked about Wang Huan, Wan Jun immediately understood what King Lu said, "It is indeed the daughter of King Rui. He returned to Chongqing two years ago to bury King Rui's remains. Zhao Guangyuan once escorted Prince Rui's mansion south from Hanzhong and met Zhu Huiying. What both of them said was right and they could not be wrong."
King Lu said happily, "King Rui is the ninth generation grandson of Emperor Taizu. In this way, my wife and I are still cousins."
Wan Jun reached out and said, "The King of Lu doesn't have to be polite. Since he is his own family, come and sit down and talk."
After King Lu sat down again, Zhang Huangyan said, "Since he is a family, I don't know what the Head of State plans to deal with us?"
Wan Jun said, "Where is General Zhang's position?"
Zhang Huang said, "I am not talented and I am the Minister of War."
Wan Jun said, "Now the north of the Yellow River is still in the hands of the Hu people. Can General Zhang join the Chinese army, lead his troops to attack the Hu barbarians in the north, and restore the Chinese kingdom?"
Zhang Huangyan looked at King Lu, shook his head and said, "I heard that the head of state was founded in Chang'an, and there is no emperor in the country?"
Wan Jun nodded and said, "Yes, we have no imperial system. The Seven Pillar Kingdoms are in charge of state affairs, and the head of the Pillar Kingdom is the head of state."
Zhang Huangyan smiled and said, "I wonder if the head of state wants to be Cao Cao or Yang Jian?"
Zhu Yihai and He Tengjiao on the side changed color when they heard this. King Lu scolded, "What are you talking about?"
Wan Jun understood Zhang Huangyan's words. Cao Cao was a powerful minister and Yang Jian was also a relative of the foreigners. He was obviously implying that he regarded himself as a person who was seeking power and seizing the throne.
Wan Jun laughed instead, "Shangshu Zhang, I have always regarded you as a loyal hero. I am a little unhappy when you say this. How much does Daming have to do with the world?"
Zhang Huangyan of the Lu Dynasty glared at him, stood up and bowed, "The Head of State for forgiveness, Zhang Huangyan is this kind of personality and has no malice."
Wan Jun waved his hand, stopped King Lu, and continued to say to Zhang Huangyan, "When you talk about expelling the Tartars, you have fought with the Hu people several times when you were in Zhejiang, and you have been fighting with King Gui over the years. Have you ever fought against the Hu people?"
Zhang Huangyan's face turned red and could not speak. Wan Jun said, "As the Minister of War, the Grand Chief cannot kill the Hu barbarians in the north, and cannot defeat the King of Gui in the south. Do you have the nerve to point out the mulberry and scold the locust in front of me?"
This was a bit heartbroken. Not only did Zhang Huangyan's face turn red, but King Lu was also embarrassed on the spot. Wan Jun turned around and said to He Tengjiao, "What did you do? After so long in Xiamen, Zhang Shangshu has not even understood whether the head of state is Cao Cao or Yang Jian. Do you know your mistake?"
He Tengjiao hurriedly said, "I will know my mistake!"
Wan Jun said, "Then I will punish you to explain clearly to Shangshu Zhang in the past few days, what is the state of the country of Zhu."
He Tengjiao nodded repeatedly, and Wan Jun turned to Zhang Huangyan, "I thought you were also a loyal hero, so I asked you to be a major general and commander in the Chinese army. Now it seems that you should start with soldiers first!"
Zhang Huangyan's face was flushed, but he didn't say a word. Seeing that Wan Jun had no intention of killing Zhang Huangyan, King Lu said repeatedly, "Thank you, Master Yuan, for your kindness."
Wan Jun said, "I dare to ask the King of Lu, when he was in Zhejiang, he was full of desire to expel the Tartars, for
Why was he finally caught up in a dispute with King Gui and could not extricate himself?"
The King of Lu sighed, "Oh, when I think back, it's a bit like falling into a fog. At that time, the regent conflicts with the King of Tang first. After the King of Tang died, he started a war with Shaowu, and then fought with King of Gui. He only thought that he would destroy the opponent first and expel the Tartars were all after pacifying the internal affairs."
Wan Jun said, "Do you think the Hu people will give you a chance from Liaodong to Jianghuai?"
King Lu said, "When I am in that position, are there any better choices? Even if I transfer troops to fight the Hu people and fight all my strength, wouldn't King Gui take the opportunity to destroy me?"
Wan Jun said, "So, how can you tolerate a second person in the position of imperial power? Just as Zhao Kuangyin said, "How can you let others sleep soundly on the side of the bed?" Once you sit in that position, power will corrupt your mind."
King Lu nodded, "I am confused by the authorities. I have not thought so much these days. I have reflected on myself and found that many things are far from my original thoughts."
Wan Jun said, "After walking for a long time, the most difficult thing for people is to uphold their original aspirations. In order to prevent the old path of imperial power, I abolished the imperial system and distributed power to the seven pillar states. When I expel the Tartars, I will elect a new head of state from the pillar state."
King Lu and Zhang Huangyan were both surprised when they heard the sound. Zhang Huangyan said in a daze, "After a thousand years, how could he hear the abolition of the imperial system?"
Wan Jun sighed and said, "You, the world is the world of the world. Zhang Sheng, Zhao Boyuan, was just a student, and his knowledge was much higher than you."
King Lu said, "Will the Zhu family be gone?"
Wan Jun said, "Even if I call the emperor, the whole world still has a surname that is not Zhu. If I don't call the emperor, the whole world has a surname that is Man and Hu, but still has a surname that is not Zhu. Before Emperor Hongwu, the world has no surname that is not Zhu. He has been prosperous and declining for thousands of years. Do you still understand this principle?"
King Lu nodded and said sadly, "Yes!"
Wan Jun said, "The Qin, Han, Jin, Sui and Tang Dynasties won against Liu, Sima, Yang, and the world of this family changed again and again. What's the future for thousands of years? The only thing that remains unchanged in the world is the world of the Chinese."
Zhang Huangyan seemed to have realized something, "I seem to understand something."
Wan Jun said, "A person's life is limited, and a dynasty's destiny is limited. However, in the memory of civilization, as long as China is still there, it can be inherited infinitely, so heroes can be immortal."
King Lu said, "I suddenly wanted to go to Chang'an to see it. When I mentioned the heroic spirit of the Han and Tang dynasties in poetry and books, I often talked about Chang'an. You know that the vassal kings of the Ming Dynasty could not leave their fiefdoms. If it weren't for war, I would never have left Yanzhou in my life."
Wan Jun said, "Of course, I will give you freedom, you can do whatever you want."
King Lu was stunned for a moment. How far apart it was to do what he wanted to do. "Is it really OK?"
Wan Jun said, "Of course!"
King Lu bowed and thanked, "Thank you for your kindness, the head of state, this is something I dare not think or ask for in my life."
Zhang Huangyan said, "I am willing to join the Chinese army and start with a small soldier, but I have a request!"
Wan Jun reached out and said, "But it's okay."
Zhang Huangyan said, "I want to go to the north and go to the front line of fighting against the Hu people."
Wan Jun nodded, "I promise you to fight well, and learn more about the Chinese army."
Zhang Huangyan said firmly, "I will!"
