For the civil and military officers of the entire Liberation Army system, the happiness of the princess not only represents an auspicious sign, but also a good sign.
More importantly, it represents the foundation of the country, the future, and the successors of the Liberation Army system!
Even if something unexpected happens to Zhu Hongyu in the future, someone will be able to stand up and unite people's hearts so that the Liberation Army system will not be divided.
Even if this heir is just a puppet, it is still better than nothing!
Even if you want to imitate Cao Cao and use the emperor to control the princes, you must have an emperor, right?
Only when Zhu Hongyu has an heir can we ensure that the system of the Liberation Army can be continued in an orderly manner and that there will be no interruption of power.
Only these people can put aside their scruples and follow Zhu Hongyu wholeheartedly to fight for their glory and wealth with the country, right?
The morale of Luzon is high. Recently, Zhu Hongyu has been wearing a smile on his face and seems to be in a good mood.
We are also more attentive when handling government affairs!
If we say that before he had children, he handled government affairs in order to overthrow the Manchu Qing Dynasty, for his own ideals, for the future of the country and nation, and to leave his name in history!
After having children, Zhu Hongyu began to think about creating a foundation for his children and future generations when handling government affairs.
Adding the two together, Zhu Hongyu's work efficiency and enthusiasm will naturally increase exponentially!
…
The seventeenth year of the Yongli calendar, the fourteenth day of the first lunar month of the Western calendar year 1663!
Zheng Chenggong led a huge fleet to the port of Luzon and ordered the fleet to lower anchor and lower the sails in the port.
Zheng Chenggong took a few guards and landed on the land of Luzon.
Then go to the Supervisor's Mansion to ask for a meeting with Zhu Hongyu!
Zhu Hongyu met Zheng Chenggong in his study. As soon as the two met, Zhu Hongyu spoke directly.
"Old Taishan must also know that the Qing captives have colluded with the Dutch and English!"
"The Dutch and English are so ambitious that they want to help the Qing captives rebuild their navy, and then they will unite with the Qing captives to strangle our Ming Dynasty!"
While talking, Zhu Hongyu told Zheng Chenggong the situation that Ming Dynasty might face next.
"If the plan of Qinglu and Yangyi succeeds, our Ming Dynasty will face powerful enemies both at sea and on land!"
"The situation is critical!"
"At that time, neither Luzon nor the generals can guarantee their safety. The combined fleets of the foreign barbarians and the Qing Dynasty may frequently harass our Ming Dynasty's coast, cut off our Ming Dynasty's shipping routes, and surround our Ming Dynasty to death..."
Zheng Chenggong already knew the critical situation from Zhu Hongyu's handwritten letter.
Otherwise, he would not have even passed the year before setting off from Damuan Port with the main force of Zheng Jun's fleet and arriving in Luzon on the fourteenth day of the first lunar month.
"Does His Royal Highness the Supervisor have a way to break the situation?"
Zheng Chenggong asked.
Zhu Hongyu nodded slightly and said.
"have!"
Zhu Hongyu's eyes were staring straight at Zheng Chenggong, full of determination and confidence, as well as a high-spirited attitude.
Zheng Chenggong nodded, his eyebrows relaxed, and he spoke.
"Old minister, everything is subject to the arrangements of His Royal Highness!"
Zhu Hongyu took a deep breath and then continued to speak.
"The staff department has come up with a feasible plan based on the current situation."
"First of all, passive defense is not feasible!"
"Offense is the best defense!"
"Instead of waiting for the foreign barbarians and Qing barbarians to join forces to attack, we, the Ming Dynasty, should take the initiative to attack!"
"While the alliance between the foreign barbarians and the Qing captives is still a paper plan and has not been implemented in practice, our army should take the initiative to annihilate the Dutch fleet and destroy the Dutch Batavia."
"Then we will attack Malacca and build forts and fortresses in Malacca to cut off the main east-west waterways."
"In this way, we can completely cut off the possibility of collusion between foreign barbarians and Qing barbarians!"
"At this time, the foreign barbarians and the Qing captives failed to join forces. This is the best time for our Ming Dynasty to concentrate our superior forces and disperse them to annihilate them!"
Zhu Hongyu's tone was sonorous and full of confidence.
It seems that there is no difficulty that can really stump him!
Zheng Chenggong nodded and said.
"This plan is very good, but it is said that the Dutch forts and forts in Batavia were quite strong!"
"If we attack a fortress, our army will probably suffer a lot of casualties!"
Zhu Hongyu took a deep breath and then spoke.
"It doesn't matter, our army has internal support!"
"Among the Chinese in Batavia, there are internal agents sent by our army. They will mobilize troops to respond at critical moments."
Zheng Chenggong nodded, and the two began to discuss the many details of this battle.
After the two of them finished discussing the business, Zheng Chenggong spoke again.
"I heard that the princess is happy!"
"Old minister, congratulations to Your Highness!"
The moment he heard this, Zhu Hongyu felt that Zheng Chenggong's eyes were a little sour, as if he was saying.
The princess is pregnant, then should you go to my daughter's room a few more times?
Zhu Hongyu coughed slightly in embarrassment, and then spoke.
"I think Xuan'er will be pregnant soon, and I've been spending a lot of time in her room these days!"
Zheng Chenggong nodded slightly and asked again.
"Your Highness, I wonder how the rebellious son Zheng Jing behaves around Your Highness recently?"
Zhu Hongyu said with a smile on his face.
"The prince has performed very well, and I admire him very much!"
"I think as long as the prince trains more, he will be able to inherit the title of King of Lao Taishan in the future."
Zheng Jing was thrown to Zhu Hongyu as a hostage by Zheng Chenggong. Zhu Hongyu did not treat Zheng Jing badly and sent him to the Secretariat for training.
The Secretariat looks inconspicuous, but it is exposed to a large amount of government affairs and secrets every day. It is a relatively important link in the power structure of the Liberation Army.
Equivalent to the ceremonial supervisor of the former Ming Dynasty, it can be said that he is in a high position of power!
…
With the arrival of Zheng's fleet, the clouds of war in Luzon are getting heavier and heavier.
The atmosphere in Luzon has gradually become thicker and more depressing.
Even if Li Lingxiu is pregnant, Zhu Hongyu can't take care of Li Lingxiu during this period.
During this period of time, he has been traveling back and forth to military camps, arsenals, shipyards, and other places.
Constantly patrolling and issuing various orders!
Even the promise to Zheng Chenggong to let Zheng Xuan get pregnant as soon as possible was completely forgotten by Zhu Hongyu.
Zhu Hongyu has always been a self-disciplined person!
He likes beauties, delicious food, beautiful houses, beautiful clothes, and luxury...
But maybe it's a habit he developed during his years as a special forces soldier. He knows how to restrain his desires very well!
He likes beauty, but he will never take women with him during the war;
He likes good food and beautiful big houses, but during wartime he would eat the same food and live in the same tent as the soldiers.
I like beautiful clothes, but I can wear them in a dusty state. I talk cordially with the soldiers in the military camp and train together. In the arsenal, I work with the workers without any pretense, which makes me look very dirty.
.
Zhu Hongyu knows that if a person cannot control his desires, he will most likely achieve nothing!
With the continuous busy work recently, the date for the expedition has finally been set.
The first day after the first month of the seventeenth year of the Yongli calendar is the first day of the second lunar month.
On the night of the 30th of the first lunar month, Zhu Hongyu finally had a rare free moment.
He did nothing else but accompanied his family and had dinner together.
The family sat together happily, Zhu Hongyu's face was full of smiles.
After the meal, he went to Zheng Xuan's room. Zheng Xuan thoughtfully brought Zhu Hongyu hot water and washed his feet herself.
Enjoying the beauty's tenderness, Zhu Hongyu remembered Zheng Chenggong's request and smiled slightly at Zheng Xuan.
"Let's have a baby together!"
Zheng Xuan nodded with a shy face, and hummed softly and inexplicably.
Half an hour later, the two embraced each other and fell asleep.
