"This guy Zhu Youjian!"

Zhang Haogu couldn't help but smile as he looked at the information in his hand: "This is stepping on the accelerator for the demise of the Ming Dynasty!"

"Motosuke!"

Huang Zongxi on the side couldn't help but said: "Zhu Youjian really has no scruples when it comes to killing people now. As a result, I am afraid that the civil servants and meritorious officials will become more and more alienated from him!"

"Zhu Youjian is still not as good as the late emperor after all!"

A slight smile appeared on Zhang Haogu's face, and he said: "The late emperor was still somewhat responsible, and Zhu Youjian still cared too much about his own face!"

Speaking of this, Zhang Haogu also had a slight sigh on his face.

I couldn't help but think of Zhu Youxiao back then.

An emperor who can say that he is a foolish emperor in front of his ministers.

Unfortunately……

Zhang Haogu suddenly discovered that Zhu Youxiao had passed away eight years ago. In the past, he still felt that they were kings and ministers, and they could start and end well. Now that he thinks about it, it feels really good to not have an emperor above his head.

Only by making your own decisions can you truly and completely make this world the way you like it.

Huang Zongxi said: "Yuanfu, there is still news here, it is the peace agreement signed by Chen Xinjia of the Ming Dynasty!"

While talking, Huang Zongxi placed a peace agreement in front of Zhang Haogu. Zhang Haogu opened the agreement with a smile on his face: "What am I talking about? This Zhu Youjian is a

You don’t have any responsibility, and you still have to be secretive if you want to seek peace with us!”

Huang Zongxi said helplessly: "What does Yuan Fu mean?"

A smile appeared on Zhang Haogu's face and he said: "It is absolutely impossible to negotiate peace. Let the newspapers refute it. Besides..."

At this time, Gu Yanwu came to Zhang Haogu: "Yuanfu, Second Assistant is sick, and his condition seems to be serious!"

Zhang Haogu was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "Okay, I understand!"

When I saw Zhang Ruitu again, the guy was already lying on the hospital bed.

He also looked quite haggard.

"Yuan Fu!" Zhang Ruitu struggled to get up when he saw Zhang Haogu.

"Cisuke, lie down!" Zhang Haogu couldn't help but sigh slightly in his heart when he looked at Zhang Ruitu in front of him.

When I went to Beijing to take the exam, it was this old boy who cheated on me.

Ever since he became the first assistant, this old boy has been serving as his second assistant.

This guy was always prudent. Although he was a little shameless, he basically followed his own wishes. Later, he followed him to the Northeast, and he was tortured quite a lot.

If you count carefully, this old guy can be regarded as your teacher.

At any rate, I also learned my calligraphy from him, and he also taught me some classic articles and historical allusions.

Unexpectedly, his body had collapsed.

Zhu Youxiao lived for five more years, and this year marks the eighth year of Chongzhen's reign.

Strictly speaking, this year is the thirteenth year of Chongzhen.

Today, this Zhang Ruitu is seventy years old.

According to the trend of history, his lifespan will be four years at most.

"I didn't expect that Cifu would work so hard like this!" Zhang Haogu said with a smile, "It's my fault!"

"Yuanfu, I'm old!" Zhang Ruitu sighed and said: "If I hadn't met Yuanfu, I wouldn't have been able to do this. The second assistant of the Ming Dynasty and the second assistant of the Datong Dynasty, I can be regarded as the second assistant of the Ming Dynasty.

You are a very worthy minister!"

Zhang Haogu just looked at Zhang Ruitu with a smile: "Is the second assistant going to resign?"

Zhang Ruitu nodded: "I also asked Yuan Fu to agree!"

"Let the cabinet discuss this matter. In addition, even if you retire, the treatment of the second assistant must be clear!" Zhang Haogu said with a smile: "The new dynasty naturally has new rules!"

Zhang Ruitu nodded again, and then said: "It's just these incompetent juniors in the family!"

"The country has its own rules and systems for talent selection!" Zhang Haogu said: "We are not an imperial system and have our own rules and systems. If you are really talented, you will naturally serve the people and the common people!"

Zhang Ruitu said: "Yuan Fu is fair, but they are all incompetent and I will not allow them to enter the officialdom!!"

Zhang Ruitu is also very honest. Basically, he supports Zhang Haogu’s new policies with both hands and feet.

When the gentry's land was to be confiscated, Zhang Ruitu immediately took out all his own land.

It was impossible not to give it. Although he acted according to the prevailing situation, he also knew Zhang Haogu's character. He would insist on this new policy. Anyone who stood in his way would be destroyed by him.

After Zhang Ruitu took out the land, he asked his family to engage in some commercial activities or start a factory.

Absolutely not tainted with officialdom.

Zhang Haogu smiled and said, "What are Cifu's plans next?"

“My love for the landscape!”

Zhang Ruitu said: "I would like to live in seclusion in Xixing's hometown in Qingyang, Jinjiang with Ru He!"

"That's fine!" Zhang Haogu said: "Ci Fu should recuperate and recuperate. As long as the world is settled, Ci Fu can decide his own life!"

In this history, Zhang Ruitu was accused of being an eunuch. After he was dismissed, he lived a quiet life, wandering around the countryside, forgetting about the mountains and rivers. He often went to Baihao Temple to talk about Zen with the monks, and entertained himself with poetry and calligraphy. He left behind a large number of calligraphy and poetry works.

.

He wrote 300 six-character poems such as "Village Residence" and "An Residence", which have been recited by the world.

Basically, after he retires, he will never participate in politics again.

As for his descendants, as long as they do not violate national laws, Zhang Haogu will not take action against them.

What he needs to create is a new dynasty that will carry forward the past and open up the future.

Zhang Ruitu fell ill and resigned at this time, which did not have much impact on Datong. He was originally a little transparent and a follower around Zhang Haogu. Naturally, he did not have much say in the matter and was basically a supporting role.

Nowadays, among the entire cabinet of Datong Dynasty,

Zhang Haogu is still the leader, Lu Xiangsheng, the original third seat, was upgraded to secondary assistant, and then Sun Chuanting was replaced as the third seat.

Zhang Haogu belongs to the military and political power, and in addition, he has absolute control within the Datong Party.

Lu Xiangsheng was mainly responsible for finance, internal affairs, and diplomacy. At first, Zhang Haogu was focused on his military capabilities, but he didn't expect that this guy was also a good hand at handling internal affairs. Now, he seems to be

The number two figure in the entire new dynasty.

Sun Chuanting assisted Zhang Haogu in handling military affairs. This guy trained many generals and still had a great influence in the army.

The fourth seat is Zhao Tiejun, who assists Zhang Haogu in handling matters within the Datong Party.

The fifth seat is Cui Chengxiu. This guy is in charge of business and his ability is quite good. The most important thing is that Zhang Haogu keeps a close eye on him and prevents this eunuch from actually doing anything corrupt. Although this guy is a bit shameless.

, However, Zhang Haogu still recognized his ability.

Currently, the cabinet consists of these five people.

Other cabinet ministers will be added in the future to be responsible for education, publicity, etc.

In the future, this number will basically remain within nine people.

Basically, Zhang Haogu is in charge, and others assist in the administration.

One is the formulation of the national title, the other is the formulation of the "National Policy Law", and the other is the construction of laws.

As for Qian Qianyi, Sun Chengzong and Zhang Haogu, they were not killed, but they could not be reused. They were not Zhang Haogu's base.

However, at present, the most important thing is to use troops against the Ming Dynasty.

Zhang Haogu's attitude was also very determined.

One battle will determine the outcome and destroy the Ming Dynasty!

Rubbing his hands, Zhang Haogu felt a little excited. When he first crossed over, he didn't expect to destroy the Ming Dynasty. But now it seems that the Ming Dynasty will be destroyed in a year at most.

Declare the end.

…

…

Nanjing City

Chongzhen looked at the "Datong Daily" in his hands and felt that his hands were still shaking uncontrollably.

At this moment, he really felt as if his whole body had been stripped naked and exposed to the sun.

Go and seek peace with Zhang Haogu yourself.

I had already lost my temper and asked for peace with Zhang Haogu.

However, Zhang Haogu, a bastard, actually refused.

Moreover, it was published directly in newspapers and announced to the world.

Doesn’t this completely expose yourself?

At this moment, even if Chongzhen wanted to shirk the blame, he had no place to do so.

The most damning thing is that this article was written by Qian Qianyi.

Every word is heart-breaking, every sentence is heart-breaking.

"We need to admit that Emperor Chongzhen still has a good chance of creating a prosperous dynasty!"

"In the twelfth year of Apocalypse, Emperor Apocalypse left us a large number of farms and a large amount of land, so that Emperor Chongzhen could collect more grain!"

"Emperor Apocalypse established the government clerk system under the auxiliary administration of Datong Yuanfu Zhang Haogu, which allowed the dynasty to easily reach the grassroots level, allowed the people to live with dignity, and allowed the people to have more surplus grain and money.

Buy food!”

"While Emperor Tianqi was still here, the railways of the Ming Dynasty were being fully constructed, allowing us to travel faster, transport more goods, and allow ordinary farmers to afford silk!"

"While Emperor Apocalypse was still here, we eliminated the slaves, and the emperors of the island countries all came to pay homage, and the kings of all the countries in the world came to pay homage to Emperor Apocalypse!"

"The barbarians surrender, and the world returns to its heart!"

"But Emperor Chongzhen resolutely stood on the opposite side of the people. He went against the grain, revived the Confucian school, and once again used decadent Confucianism to divide everyone into classes and grades!"

"Emperor Chongzhen allowed the Confucius family to reoccupy Shandong and once again made the people of Shandong live a life worse than pigs and dogs."

"Emperor Chongzhen abolished the farm and abolished the government officials. From then on, he could only rely on Jinyiwei and Dongchang to provide him with information. However, Jinyiwei and Dongchang each had their own little calculations. Emperor Chongzhen naively thought

Jin Yiwei and Dongchang will not deceive themselves, but they also have their own plans and their own Xiao Jiujiu, so they can still deceive the emperor!"

"Emperor Chongzhen restored the status of the gentry and the status of the meritorious group, allowing them to start embezzling land more unscrupulously. Emperor Apocalypse's policy of staying was completely abolished by Emperor Chongzhen overnight!"

"Abolition of these policies also completely abolishes the existence of a prosperous age!"

"However, Lao Qian thinks that this is the shortcoming of the family world. After all, the world still serves the emperor. Maybe the previous emperor was a good emperor. Who can tell whether the next emperor will be wanton for his own selfish desires?

What if you act recklessly and destroy the world?"

"In this way, Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, only stole the fruits of victory from the people of the world. The uprising at the end of the Yuan Dynasty was the result of the joint efforts of the people of the world. In the end, the Tartars were expelled and China was rebuilt, while Zhu Yuanzhang stole the fruits of victory from the people of the world.

The fruit of victory, let me ask, can Zhu Yuanzhang completely eliminate Bao Yuan by himself?"

"After all, the world belongs to everyone in the world, not to one person!"

What I wrote here is basically to demonstrate the rationality of the emperor's existence, and I even bluntly questioned that Zhu Yuanzhang was stealing the fruits of victory from the people of the world.

It's not that daring.

boom!

Zhu Youjian patted Long An angrily, his face twisted: "Qian! Qian! Yi!"

Thinking back to the time when Qian Qianyi patted his chest and expressed his determination to defend the city of Beijing, saying that the city is with me and if the city is destroyed, I will perish. As a result, he was so shameless. As soon as he left, Qian Qianyi immediately opened the city of Beijing and welcomed Zhang Hao.

Entering the city in ancient times.

Now, this bitch actually started writing articles.

There are not so many literate vocabulary, it can be said to be extremely straightforward, and Zhu Youjian was furious when he saw it.

Especially, one with an old money per mouth.

Fucking stinky and shameless.

Holding a pan dog!

But the most important thing is that Qian Qianyi's article is really heart-breaking.

What he said is not wrong at all. When Chongzhen ascends the throne, you don't need to do anything. You just need to implement Tianqi's new policies step by step.

As long as the New Deal can operate stably for more than ten years, then the Ming Dynasty will naturally be what the people want.

Even the Donglin Party began to change its thinking and began to actively align itself with the New Deal.

Even if Zhang Haogu wanted to rebel, he couldn't.

The result is that you, Chongzhen, have nothing to do but do your own thing, and if you insist on doing so, let these old parties begin to restore themselves.

Then, it really broke the news.

It is you who insist on abolishing the New Deal, you who insist on bringing back the nobles, and you who insist on bringing back the souls of the feudal evildoers.

It's fine now, it's your own fault.

Putting down the "Datong Daily" in his hand, Zhu Youjian was trembling all over.

Wang Chengen on the side suddenly became frightened: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty!"

Several young eunuchs hurriedly came over. While some were patting Zhu Youjian on the back, others were trying to calm him down.

I don't know how long it took, but Zhu Youjian still took a few breaths.

He picked up the tea cup on the table and took a sip of tea. He looked at Chen Xinjia, but Chen Xinjia just lowered his head and was sweating profusely. At this moment, he had begun to think about surrendering to the Datong Dynasty.

Negotiate peace, why do people want to negotiate peace with you?

Now they have an army of millions, and they are ready to fight, so how can you fight?

"Chen Xinjia!"

Zhu Youjian slowly said: "What do you think we should do?"

Chen Xinjia was suddenly sweating profusely and said: "Your Majesty, there is no other way but to fight!"

Zhu Youjian narrowed his eyes, and then said to himself: "Yes, we can only fight!

Then, Zhu Youjian said fiercely: "The four towns in Jiangbei, transfer them here, I, I will take the initiative, I, I will catch them off guard, yes, that's it, let Gao Jie, Liu Zeqing, Liu Liangzuo, and Li Chengdong come over

, I, I want to reward them heavily, I want them to destroy the Datong Dynasty, I can still fight, I can still fight."

Chen Xinjia quickly said: "Your Majesty, we still have an army in Huguang, He Tengjiao. In addition, there is the Zheng family in Fujian. The top priority is that the emperor canonize He Tengjiao and Zheng Zhilong. As long as these two are still there, as long as they are still there,

As long as the four towns in Jiangbei are still there, we can still start a war with the traitor Zhang Haogu!"

Having said this, Chen Xinjia suddenly closed his mouth.

Damn, I said too much.

If Chongzhen doesn't do things well and wants to pass the blame, wouldn't he have to deal with it himself?

An extremely terrifying thought came to Chen Xinjia's mind.

Zhu Youjian narrowed his eyes slightly and looked directly at Chen Xinjia: "Chen Xinjia, what title do I want to give them?"

"Gao Jie can be canonized as Xingping Bo, Liu Liangzuo can be canonized as Guangchang Bo, Liu Zeqing can be canonized as Dongping Bo, and Li Chengdong can be canonized as Jingnan Bo!" Chen Xinjia said quickly: "In addition, He Tengjiao can be canonized as Anguo Gong.

, Zheng Zhilong canonized as Dinghai Gong!" Chen Xinjia couldn't help but say it now, and said directly: "In this case, the six people must return to their hearts!

Zhu Youjian took a deep breath, then nodded and said: "I'm sure, let the cabinet draw up the votes!"

And Chen Xinjia also quickly said: "Your Majesty, I am not talented. I am willing to go to Beijing and try my best to prevent the Northern Army from going south in the name of peace talks. As long as you delay, I think your Majesty will win. As long as you delay, we will win."

Won!"

Something called gratitude suddenly rose in Zhu Youjian's heart. He looked at Chen Xinjia in front of him and said, "My dear, it is extremely dangerous to go to Beijing. How can I bear it?"

"The life of the minister is not a concern!" Chen Xinjia said: "As long as we can delay it for a moment or three, it is a victory. Your Majesty, I can win a point for you. Even if I die ten thousand times, it is a well-deserved death!"

These words were really about to make Zhu Youjian cry.

"I love you, I love you. I have you, so what else can I ask for?" Zhu Youjian's heart was also filled with emotion.

This time, Zhu Youjian also showed his sincerity thoroughly.

Afterwards, He Tengjiao and Zheng Zhilong from the four towns in Jiangbei were immediately asked to enter Beijing.

Six people received rewards respectively.

However, at this time, Zhu Youjian still got the news from Jin Yiwei.

Chen Xinjia crossed the river, and Chen Xinjia’s whole family also crossed the river.

Chen Xinjia defected!

After receiving the news, Zhu Youjian broke his guard on the spot, feeling that all his passion was for the dog.

I was actually so moved by this dog?

bass!

Zhu Youjian pulled out the sword hanging on his gun and slashed at Long An crazily.

"Traitor, evil thief, traitor!"

While talking, Zhu Youjian chopped and chopped, feeling that his heart was trembling with pain, and then he simply fainted, leaving Wang Chengen on one side half dead.

Wang Chengen here is in shock.

On the other hand, Chen Xinjia had already told Zhang Haogu all about Chongzhen's plan for arranging troops.

"This Zhu Youjian!"

Zhang Haogu looked at several members of the cabinet.

Then he circulated the information to everyone, but a smile appeared on his face: "There are no more useful generals around. Can this He Tengjiao fight? If he doesn't have this ability, why should he fight with us?"

Lu Xiangsheng looked at the information compiled in his hand and said: "I'm afraid, Chongzhen can't take the initiative. The Ming Dynasty has always had financial problems. It's absolutely impossible for Chongzhen to spend so much money. Let me see, even if we send troops

, they may not be able to react!"

"Once you take action, it will definitely destroy the wood!"

Zhang Haogu said with a smile: "The Ming Dynasty can't stop us. They have completely lost their enterprising spirit. Now they are just hanging on. What they need is for us to kick them lightly and the earth will fall apart!"

After a pause, Zhang Haogu continued to add: "The main problem we need to consider now is the resistance of the gentry. We need to solve the problem of the gentry. The previous New Deal of the Tianqi Dynasty was mainly aimed at the north. The South has not yet begun to lay out the New Deal.

The influence on the masses is not that great. How to solve the problem of the gentry is one. The second is to appease the people. In this battle, the military station battle will be supplemented, and economic construction is the most important issue!"

"We still need to come up with a platform to discuss many possible problems in detail, and as members of the Datong Party, we need to understand the grassroots and the situation on the front line, and then formulate corresponding policies!"

Zhang Haogu's cabinet emphasizes efficiency.

In internal discussions, he can definitely make the final decision.

at last

Zhang Haogu stretched his muscles and bones and said with a smile: "By the way, has our steel steamship in Lushunwei begun to go to sea?"

Lu Xiangsheng nodded and said: "Yes!"

"It's time!" A smile appeared on Zhang Haogu's face: "I think it's time to take it out and give the world a little shock!"

Lu Xiangsheng narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Yuan Fu, are you planning to take action against the Zheng family?"

Zhang Haogu nodded and said: "Yes, we are planning to take action against the Zheng family. The Zheng family's navy has conquered the entire Nanyang. This strength is still there. We need to give the Zheng family a hard blow to prevent the Zheng family from helping the evil and annihilating the Zheng family."

The navy will completely integrate the Zheng family!"

"What about He Tengjiao?" Lu Xiangsheng frowned and asked, "How should we deal with it?"

Zhang Haogu shrugged and said: "He Tengjiao is nothing to worry about. He is a man of great ambition and talent, and is narrow-minded. He is always worried that his subordinates are superior to him. He may be loyal to the Ming Dynasty, but he is not capable!"

Historically, although He Tengjiao also made a name for himself, overall, he still relied on the support of Li Guo and Gao Yigong to form the Loyalty Camp.

But now, I'm sorry.

Li Zicheng, Zhang Xianzhong, Gao Yingxiang and other rebels were all recruited by Zhang Haogu.

He Tengjiao doesn't have any loyalty camp.

The military power in his hands is very poor. As long as he goes south, he can not only destroy the wood, but also tear the paper.

The most urgent task is to strike first and attack the Zheng family directly.

Once the Zheng family is allowed to harass along the coast, Datong's wealth will be lost.

Of course Zhang Haogu would not give the Zheng family this opportunity.

Sun Chuanting looked at Zhang Haogu and asked, "Who is Yuan Fu planning to let deal with the Zheng family?"

"How about Huang Fei?" Zhang Haogu said a name.

When Huang Fei was young, he followed his uncle Huang Long to fight against the Qing army in Liaodong. Later, Zhang Haogu cleaned up Liaodong and established four towns in southern Liaoning, so he incorporated Huang Fei into the navy. Later, Zhang Haogu also

Incorporate Huang Fei into the Lushun Navy.

Previously, I participated in the war with Japan, and in the end, I achieved quite a lot of results.

They belong to a group of people who are quite capable among the younger generation.

"However, we still need to be polite before fighting. We should give Zheng Zhilong a letter asking him to surrender. If he surrenders, I guarantee that the Zheng family will still have a place in the new dynasty. If they refuse, they will have no qualifications to negotiate with us!" Zhang is very old-fashioned!

Dingshenxian: "Let Huang Fei report!"

…

…

Fujian, Nan'an County, Zhengjia

Today's Zheng Zhilong naturally does not have the ambition he had when he was young.

Wealth and beauty can completely consume a person's will.

When Zheng Zhilong was young, he could still travel across Southeast Asia and island countries, earning his name as the famous Pirate King. However, once he was recruited by the Ming Dynasty, his life immediately began to deteriorate and deteriorate.

It took three years and two months to build this luxurious residence of the Zheng family.

It is located to the north of Anping Bridge, from Xidai to Xigang in the west, to Xitou in the north, to Anping Qiaotou in the south, and directly connected to Wugang Port, covering an area of ​​138 acres.

The main structure is a Xieshan style with five bays and thirteen shelves, with three-way gates, two fire lanes and five courtyards. Wings, pavilions, pavilions and pavilions are facing each other on both sides, and the ring is a barrier.

There are "Dunren Pavilion" in the east and "Taiyun Tower" in the west. The front hall is the "Catholic Hall" and the middle hall is the "Xiaosi Hall", which is grand in scale. Behind the mansion is the "Zhiyuan Garden", which is protected by a wall.

, scattered with hills and ravines, pavilions, monasteries, ponds, small bridges, winding paths, fine trees, exotic flowers and rare plants.

Zheng Zhilong is very thoughtful about his personal enjoyment.

After being the Pirate King for most of your life, why can’t you still enjoy it?

However, later, the Zheng family's mansion was still burned down by Zheng Chenggong to show his determination to resist the Qing Dynasty to the end.

"Brother!"

The second-in-command of the Zheng family, Zheng Hongkui, quickly came to Zheng Zhilong with a letter: "This is a letter from Zhang Haogu, the chief minister of Datong!"

Zheng Zhilong casually pushed away the geisha beside him and spread out the letter.

He smiled and said, "Did the Datong Dynasty want to recruit us?"

Casually, Zheng Zhilong put away the letter in his hand and looked at Zheng Hongkui and said, "What do you think?"

"This letter doesn't mean much. It just says that we hope there won't be any war!" Zheng Hongkui said: "It has no practical meaning. Look, the Ming Dynasty gave us Dinghai Gong after all, and he was also a Duke of the country. He was hereditary.

Damn it, Datong just sent a letter and wanted to bribe us, I think, I’m dreaming at this time!”

Zheng Zhilong nodded and said, "What do you mean?"

"Let's fight!" Zheng Hongkui said: "Harass the coast to let the Ming Dynasty know the weight of our Zheng family, and let Zhang Haogu know the strength of our Zheng family!"

"Then let's start the fight and write a letter!" Zheng Zhilong thought for a while and said: "Tell Zhang Haogu that our Zheng family will only be loyal to the Ming Dynasty. In addition, send the letter to the emperor and ask for his permission to collect the goods in Fujian.

Tax!"

Zheng Hongkui laughed, then raised a thumbs up and said with a smile: "Good idea!"

The brothers chatted for a while.

Letters were also sent to Chongzhen and Zhang Haogu respectively.

Naturally, Zhang Haogu didn't say any nonsense and just started the steamship. Now, under his guidance, Lushun Shipyard has begun to use steel to build ships. When paired with steam engines, it can be said to be the most powerful warship in the world.

As for Chongzhen, he was furious.

The Zheng family is taking advantage of the situation.

However, at this moment, Zhu Youjian found that there was no one around him to discuss with.

When I asked the ministers, every minister was laughing.

Please ask the emperor to make a decision

This means that your Majesty, it is up to you.

Xue Guoguan also gave you advice. Then, what did you do?

You know it in your own mind.

Zhu Youjian was completely silent, and even felt that his head was empty.

Finally, Zhu Youjian made a decision.

Promise to the Zheng family.

The civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty can only say that the emperor was divinely determined and wise.

The more you say, the more likely you will be wrong; the less you say, the less likely you will be wrong.

Not bad!

Chen Xinjia even ran away.

Who would take the Ming Dynasty seriously?

I'll just wait for Datong to come over and everyone can just surrender.

Everyone is waiting for the complete destruction of the Ming Dynasty.

At this moment, a warship slowly started to launch from Lushun Port.

The steel ship, which was only born in 1787, was built by Zhang Haogu more than a hundred years ahead of schedule.

This ship was named Lushun by Zhang Haogu. It has a displacement of 1,300 tons, a speed of 5 knots, a length of 2 meters, a side width of 58 meters, a draft of 57 meters.

Number of staff: 204-280 people

Endurance

6000 nautical miles/10 knots

Power system, 2 horizontal 3-cylinder reciprocating steam engines.

In addition, Zhang Haogu still installed many rear boring guns on it.

Over the past few years, the Northern Ordnance Bureau has also conducted a large-scale upgrade of weapons.

The entire cannon and shells are specially designed.

Picric acid bombs are chemical bombs. They are lighter and more powerful than solid bombs. The range of this thing directly reaches more than 1,500 meters.

The only troublesome thing is the cannonballs. Picric acid bombs easily react with steel, so a layer of beeswax needs to be added to the inside of the cannonballs to prevent the picric acid from colliding with the steel and triggering an explosion. However, even so, this picric acid bomb

It still needs to be carefully protected. Once it explodes, the power will be too much for one of us to bear.

Zhang Haogu has already asked people to study yellow gunpowder.

Special bonuses have been set up, and if you have made special contributions, you will be given enough bonuses.

When the Lushun attacked, the others were wooden ships and steam engines, but their speed was still slightly inferior to the Lushun.

Huang Fei has gone through repeated training.

A set of naval warfare methods has basically been formed. Now, it is time to test the power of this steel warship.

The Zheng family was not idle at all and immediately began a large-scale attack.

The steam fleet followed the Lushun directly south and headed straight for Fujian.

Then, the Zheng family quickly received the news and immediately began to build warships for a naval battle with Datong.

It was Zheng Hongkui who took action from the Zheng family.

The second in command of the Zheng family.

After all, during the Tianqi Dynasty, they also beat Japan and forced them to open up free trade.

It is absolutely impossible not to be cautious.

Even so, Zheng Hongkui is quite confident.

The Zheng family has been engaged in naval battles for many years. At the level of an island country, it is definitely no match for the Zheng family.

"General Soldier!"

Zheng Zhilong's second son Zheng Cai quickly came to Zheng Hongkui and gasped: "I saw Datong's fleet!"

Zheng Hongkui quickly came to the bow of the ship.

Through the telescope, I saw the fleet flying the Datong flag in the distance.

Zheng Hongkui just glanced at it and felt that something was not quite right.

Then, he suddenly reacted.

Is the draft of this ship a bit large?

Then, Zheng Hongkui suddenly discovered something extraordinary.

Isn’t that right? This is a fucking steel ship?

joke?

Steel ship, how did this thing get into the sea?

Zheng Hongkui suddenly felt that there was a huge deviation in his cognition.

And there's this speed.

Why is this speed so fast?

other end

Huang Fei also received a report from his subordinates and met Zheng Hongkui.

"Get ready, fire!"

Huang Fei was also unambiguous and immediately prepared for war.

Zheng Hongkui was also a little confused.

Is this going to open fire?

Why is this distance so far?

But, this distance.

Zheng Hongkui was very doubtful whether the power of their artillery could reach his own fleet.

Even so, Zheng Hongkui was ready to run away.

The speed of the steel ship was beyond his comprehension.

Then!

boom!

With a loud noise, I saw a cannonball roaring towards my fleet.

Zheng Hongkui's eyes suddenly widened, with an expression of disbelief on his face.

Such a long distance?

Can it actually fall directly onto your own fleet?

boom!

The shell fell on the fleet and exploded immediately. A terrible heat wave swept across violently. In an instant, there were bursts of screams, and the flames instantly began to burn on a large scale.

During the Sino-Japanese War.

The Japanese used picric acid explosives on a large scale, and they were extremely powerful. They not only defeated the Manchu and Qing maritime armies, but also defeated the Russian naval armies. Its main feature was that it could set ships on fire and was difficult to extinguish. It also contained phenol, which was insoluble in water.

substances can also burn at sea.

The Manchus also suffered many defeats, and from then on, they truly realized that their skills were not as good as their own.

Zhang Haogu was really not polite at all. He still made the picric acid bomb by relying on his memory from his previous life.

This thing, in this era, would be crushing.

In this era, there is no big steel ship at all. As long as it hits, it will be a king bomb.

This battle must be won!

Either treat the Zheng family as a display and not send troops to conquer. Since we are going to send troops to conquer, we must win, we must win, and we must win beautifully.

One of the ideas that Zhang Haogu adheres to is the idea of ​​big bombs.

He now owns most of the world. He has been recuperating for three years and has accumulated so many weapons. Isn't this the time to use them?

Now the accuracy of the artillery is not good enough, so that doesn't matter. I'll cover it all for you, wouldn't it?

When the picric acid bomb burned, it emitted a corrosive smell.

"Commander, be careful!"

Zheng Hongkui was suddenly pushed to the ground. Then, a picric acid bomb exploded next to him. In an instant, the flames spread quickly and engulfed the soldiers around him.

"Retreat, retreat!"

Zheng Hongkui made a miserable sound.

This was completely beyond his knowledge.

Is this a fucking ship?

It is clearly a steel monster.

Looking at the miserable sounds around them, some soldiers were rolling in the flames, while others fell off the ship and sank into the sea.

I can't complain that I was able to beat up the big island country and destroy everything.

This was completely beyond Zheng Hongkui's knowledge.

Huang Fei looked at the scene on the sea with a telescope, and couldn't help but secretly exclaimed for a moment. This Lushun was simply too powerful in its first battle.

Just such a ship directly crushed the Zheng family's fleet.

This thing is simply crushable.

Isn’t this invincible in naval warfare?

At that time, with only a few large steel ships, the entire Southeast Asia, no, the entire world's oceans can be freely controlled.

The more he thought about it, the more Huang Fei felt that it was extremely maneuverable.

The ships these days are not big steel ships, they are all made of wood. If you have picric acid bombs but the enemy does not, then as long as one shell is fired, you can send them to the sea to feed the fish on the spot.

If you can use cannons, use cannons. If you can use firepower to cover it, use firepower to cover it.

Don't tell me about tactics. The essence of big bombs is large-scale firepower coverage.

Huang Fei is now the implementer who fully supports Zhang Haogu's combat ideas and has made certain modifications and adjustments to the combat methods.

"attack!"

Seeing that the overall situation was decided, Huang Fei waved his palm fiercely.

Then, the armored ship rushed out directly. Huang Fei said to the corpses in the sea: "Shout and ask them to surrender, otherwise, we will kill them without mercy!"

This is a large speaker, and the sound it produces is extremely loud.

Although it is not an electric speaker, it also has the function of amplification.

The Zheng family's naval soldiers had no time to make any counterattack and had no choice but to surrender.

One warship after another hoisted the white flag...

Then, we started to land in Fujian.

The sea surface was full of corpses, and it was extremely miserable.

Subsequently, the door to Fujian opened, and Huang Fei completely logged into Fujian.

After landing, Huang Fei suddenly came back to his senses.

Why did I land in Fujian?

Haven't I been looking forward to the final battle? How did it end up like this?

The Zheng family is too easy to deal with, right?

For a moment, Huang Fei couldn't help but feel a little depressed.

The opponent was too weak, which made him feel like he was drawing his sword and looking around at a loss.

Huang Fei looked at the lieutenant beside him: "Have we landed?"

Logged in!

Huang Fei was a little speechless, and then said: "This Zheng family seems to be easy to beat. I didn't even react. So we won?"

The deputy general was also silent, obviously not expecting to win so easily, and then nodded and said: "Yes!"

"General, we have captured Zheng Cai and Zheng Hongkui!" A soldier quickly came to Huang Fei.

"Okay, I understand, wait on the spot and wait for other naval forces to land!" Huang Fei gave the final order.

Zheng family!

"What?" Zheng Zhilong suddenly jumped on the spot: "The navy was completely wiped out. Zheng Hongkui and Zheng Cai were captured alive? Zheng Hongkui, Zheng Cai, this waste, what on earth is he doing? Waste, waste, the Zheng family's navy was completely wiped out.

Already?"

The children of the Zheng family were all silent.

Zheng Zhilong sat slumped on the chair, glanced at the Zheng family children around him, and said, "What can we do about it?"

Everyone was silent.

After all, Zheng Hongkui is also the number two person in the Zheng family. This unlucky guy was captured alive. So, the Zheng family basically has no big secrets in front of Zhang Haogu.

At this time, a voice came: "Dad, it's bad, Datong's navy has surrounded Nan'an County!"

"What?" Zheng Hongkui was completely dumbfounded: "Why is it so fast?"

The speed at which Zheng Zhilong got the news was almost the same.

When the front leg got the news, the back leg came and killed them.

The number of people surrounding Nan'an County was not large, only more than a thousand. However, after the siege, all the artillery mounted on them were artillery. This power was naturally no joke.

Now Zhang Haogu has also put forward requirements for lightweight and assembly of artillery, in order to facilitate transportation.

Facing the fact that he was surrounded, Zheng Zhilong felt like he was trembling all over.

"asshole!"

After finally arriving at the top of the city, Zheng Zhilong saw young Huang Fei.

"Zheng Zhilong, I'll give you a chance now. Surrender immediately. We in Datong can still give your Zheng family a chance to survive. Otherwise, don't blame us for being rude!" Huang Fei said loudly: "Yuan Fu has already given it to you.

This is an opportunity for you to surrender gracefully. If you still want to continue to resist, we will launch a final attack on you!"

"You are presumptuous!"

Zheng Zhilong was furious. In Fujian, the Zheng family still had soldiers. He was confident that he could definitely deal with Zhang Haogu. As long as he dealt with Zhang Haogu, he could still win a decent opportunity.

There was a hint of ridicule and disdain in Huang Fei's eyes.

It seemed that Zheng Zhilong had no idea what was going on.

Okay, then let’s give Zheng Zhilong a little shock.

Then, Huang Fei waved his hand gently: "Fire!"

The terrifying picric acid bomb fell on the city.

Zheng Zhilong was completely dumbfounded.

This power is really too great.

This Pingnan County is originally a small county town with no defense. The city wall is just a rammed earth wall. How could it block this picric acid bomb?

A salvo.

The Zheng family soldiers had already fled in panic.

Later, Huang Fei directly ordered an attack on the city and went straight to Huanglong to capture Zheng Zhilong alive.

It wasn't until the moment the city was broken and he was pinned to the ground that he realized that he had been captured alive.

Jinling City

"What?" Zhu Youjian looked at Wang Chengen angrily: "How long has it been? Zheng Zhilong has been captured alive?"

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!" Looking at Zhu Youjian who was out of breath, the old eunuch Wang Chengen on the side said hurriedly: "Your Majesty, don't be angry, don't be angry, don't be angry!"

"Don't be angry, don't be angry. Our ancestors' country, my Ming Dynasty, can't we hold on to even half of it?" Zhu Youjian wailed: "Ancestors and ancestors, please, please.

Apparition!”

Wang Chengen also cried: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, we still have a chance, we still have a chance!"

"Opportunity?" Zhu Youjian looked at Wang Chengen and said through gritted teeth, "Where is the chance?"

Wang Chengen fell into complete silence.

Zhu Youjian began to cry again: "I, how could I fall into such a situation?"

Wang Chengen also cried, and the master and the servant fell into complete silence.

…

…

beijing city

"Fighted down?"

An unexpected expression appeared on Zhang Haogu's face, and then he smiled and said, "I didn't expect this to be so easy?"

"This is Huang Fei's battle report!" Sun Chuanting handed the battle report to Zhang Haogu and said with a sigh: "The Zheng family said it was about crossing the sea, but in the end, it seems that it is just that!"

"This is a dimensionality reduction strike. The strengths of both sides are not at the same level at all!" Zhang Haogu shrugged: "We are a steel ship, and they are still a wooden ship. What can we use to fight us? The Zheng family surrendered quickly enough now.

, I thought they persisted for a month, but I didn’t expect that they were defeated after persisting for less than half a month? I’m really a little disappointed!”

Speaking of this, Zhang Haogu murmured in his heart, wondering if Zheng Chenggong was killed in the bombing. By the way, he should still be called Zheng Sen now.

After calming down his emotions slightly, Zhang Haogu continued: "Ask the military headquarters to come over and immediately order the navy to quickly transport soldiers to Fujian. We must capture Fujian, as well as Guangdong, Guangxi, Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan and Chongqing. This time, but

If Zhu Youjian escapes, there will be no place to escape!"

After a pause, Zhang Haogu continued: "Let Cao Wenzhao go over and take command, sweep across the southeast, and let Zhou Yuji set off from the west to attack He Tengjiao, and then encircle Jinling City!"

Sun Chuanting said: "Yuanfu is going to raise troops?"

"You are here to be the commander-in-chief!" Zhang Haogu said with a smile: "Is it okay? You have seen all the generals at all levels during this period, and the preparations are almost complete. This is also the last battle!"

"Don't worry Yuansuke!"

Sun Chuanting nodded: "No problem!"

Zhang Haogu took a deep breath and said with a smile: "This is the last battle to dominate the world. Perform well. This time, we can cross the river with a million troops!"

million!

Just thinking about this number makes Sun Chuanting feel shocked.

But Zhang Haogu smiled and said: "By the way, I recently reread a poem, what do you think?"

While talking, Zhang Haogu casually handed Sun Chuanting a note.

"Qilu: Datong soldiers occupy Jinling"

The wind and rain in Zhongshan turned yellow, and millions of troops crossed the river.

The tiger sits on the dragon's plate and the present is better than the past. The world is turned upside down and generous.

It is better to use your remaining courage to chase the poor bandits, and not to use your reputation as an academic overlord.

If heaven has feelings, it will also grow old, and the right path in the world will undergo vicissitudes of life.

Sun Chuanting was a little surprised. He rarely saw Zhang Haogu writing poems. He was also a little surprised at this moment: "Good poem, you wrote it, and you haven't occupied Jinling yet!"

Zhang Haogu muttered in his heart: "I plagiarized it!"
