As wars between countries become more frequent, a steady stream of information about the war situation pours into the capital from all directions.
In the past few days, Guo Jia has personally reported to Cheng Mu every day.
The war situation between the countries is serious and Cheng Mu needs to make his own decision.
"Your Majesty, we have captured a prisoner."
Not long after, Guo Jia reported again: "This person is from the Zheng family pirates!"
After being dispatched for so long, Zheng Yisao's loot finally arrived in the capital.
"Oh? Zheng Zhilong's people?"
Cheng Mu was a little curious and asked, "Is it possible that this person has a special status?"
In the previous battle, Tianniao had already sent back the news.
Although there was not even one out of ten Kyushu soldiers, Zheng Zhilong's army was also wiped out! It couldn't be Zheng Zhilong himself who could survive in that situation, right?
The main reason is that Zheng Yisao did not give any special instructions when she sent Zheng Chenggong back.
"I heard that he is Zheng Zhilong's son!"
After all, he was not from the same era, and he, Guo Jia, did not know Zheng Chenggong. All he knew was just a name.
"What? He's actually Zheng Zhilong's son?"
At this moment, Cheng Mu suddenly felt a little joy in his heart. When he heard the words of Zheng Zhilong's son, what he naturally thought of was Zheng Chenggong!
In history, Zheng Chenggong is a famous national hero!
"Um."
Guo Jia was a little surprised. He didn't quite understand Cheng Mu's joy.
"Your Majesty, do you know this person?"
Most of the great talents in his mind were based on those before the Three Kingdoms period, such as Xiao He, Zhang Liang, Xiang Yu, Guan Zhong and others.
"I've heard about it for a long time!"
Cheng Mu nodded, but he didn't say any words like thunder.
This is actually not consistent with his identity.
Indeed, Zheng Chenggong is famous and his qualifications must be unparalleled. However, in the Apocalypse Empire at this time, there are more generals at the same level than Zheng Chenggong who cannot be counted on one hand.
Naturally, Cheng Mu didn't need to be too excited.
This is the icing on the cake.
"That must be a great talent."
Guo Jia understood.
This son of Zheng Zhilong can fall in the eyes of His Majesty, so His Majesty will be happy.
For a moment, he also had some small expectations in his heart.
You must know that nowadays, there are actually not many people who can fall in love with Cheng Muyan!
Everyone who enters is a great talent!
"Haha! You'll know just by looking at it!"
Cheng Mu first gave it up and waited until he saw Zheng Chenggong in person.
Not long after.
Several guards escorted Zheng Chenggong in.
Along the way, Zheng Chenggong also relied on his amazing perseverance and resilience to recover most of his injuries.
Although it's not healed yet.
But at this moment, he is indeed much stronger than he was at the beginning.
It has been promoted from the initial strength of the country to the half-step ghost and god now.
That's what the battlefield is like.
Either die or live. And most of those who survive will make progress!
This is also the reward that people can get after working hard.
"He is truly a talented person."
The moment Zheng Chenggong came in, Cheng Mu and Guo Jia both nodded in agreement.
In his twenties, he can possess half the strength of a ghost or a god. This Zheng Chenggong’s talent is truly terrifying!
"snort!"
Facing the naked gazes of Cheng Mu and Guo Jia, Zheng Chenggong was not convinced.
If his strength hadn't been blocked, he would have been brave enough!
"Still not kneeling down!"
Seeing the unruly Zheng Chenggong, the escorting soldier kicked him in the leg.
Not kneeling when you meet the emperor is simply disrespectful!
"you!"
Zheng Chenggong was staggered by the huge force of the kick.
At this time, he was even more angry. How dare a first-class ant treat him like this, Zheng Chenggong?
If he had the strength, he would definitely kill him with his backhand!
Anyway, I have reached this stage, I don’t need to think about anything, and I don’t need to do anything!
As the only survivor of that battle, Zheng Chenggong felt that he was not qualified to survive!
That's right, Zheng Chenggong believed that his father Zheng Zhilong had also died in battle. If he couldn't get revenge, he might as well die heroically!
The two father and son are in hell, fighting for the world again!
"Okay, let's untie him!"
Cheng Mu stopped the guards. If he didn't speak, it looked like they would have to teach Zheng Chenggong a lesson.
But here, it's not necessary.
Although Zheng Chenggong is a prisoner, he is also a guest.
"I am the Lord of the Apocalypse Empire."
After Zheng Chenggong was untied and stood firm, Cheng Mu directly revealed his identity. He asked: "Do you know your current situation?"
If possible, he would like to recruit Zheng Chenggong under his command.
The huge Apocalypse Empire only has Zheng Yisao's Kyushu navy, which is not enough.
When the world is unified in the future, not to mention one naval fleet, even ten naval fleets will not be considered much.
"So what if you know?"
Zheng Chenggong raised his head stubbornly and said coldly: "Give me a pleasure!"
Anyway, if you can't beat him, you might as well die!
Revenge?
Now that he doesn't even have a chance to escape, how can he take revenge? How can he avenge himself?
Tactful and perfunctory?
No, with Zheng Chenggong’s character, he cannot do such an act against his will!
And as an emperor, Zheng Chenggong would not look down on Cheng Mu in the slightest. As an emperor, he would naturally have a way of discerning people's hearts.
One set on the surface and another on the back?
Then I really don’t know when he will be killed on what charges.
It's better to die now and still have a companion with your own father on the road to hell!
"Haha, you don't have to worry."
Facing the rebellious Zheng Chenggong, Cheng Mu smiled and said: "We are all young people, so don't be so angry!"
He was in a good mood and was naturally willing to give Zheng Chenggong a chance!
"snort!"
Zheng Chenggong still responded with a cold snort. But at this time, his view of Cheng Mu had changed slightly.
This emperor is too approachable, right?
The show of force, coercion and inducement that he imagined at the beginning were actually none of them.
After a while, he sat down with a confused look on his face.
That's right, seeing that his injury had not yet recovered, Cheng Mu directly offered him a seat.
How is this still prisoner treatment? Is this completely VIP treatment?
"Since you are already here, I will get straight to the point."
Cheng Mu was not polite and directly stated his purpose.
"I think you are pretty good and can be made. So there is no need for you to waste your ability on being a pirate. Join my Apocalypse Empire and you will be a general in command in the future!"
Indeed, with Zheng Chenggong's strength, being a pirate is a complete waste of talent.
In history, when he regained Taiwan and resisted the Qing Dynasty, he fought under the banner of the Ming Dynasty. Naturally, in this life, Cheng Mu planned to intercept Zheng Chenggong first.
Still the same sentence.
To weaken your enemy is to strengthen yourself.
And by weakening the enemy and benefiting yourself at the same time, you will be doubled!
How could we not do this good deed?
"A general? Haha."
Hearing Cheng Mu's words, Zheng Chenggong suddenly sneered: "Your Majesty, do you have any misunderstandings about our Zheng clan pirates?"
"I, the Zheng family pirate, am the undisputed king of the ocean!"
"A mere general is too stingy!"
According to normal circumstances, referring to the models of various empires, Zheng Zhilong is the emperor, and Zheng Chenggong is the prince.
If he had not been defeated in the war, his future status as Zheng Chenggong would have been the same as that of the emperor.
In this case, how could he value the identity of a general?
And when Cheng Mu said this, in his heart, it was a kind of contempt for him!
"oh?"
Cheng Mu also laughed, and he only responded with one sentence.
"Is the territory of your Zheng clan pirates wider than this continent?"
