Chapter 719 - Outside needs to be safe


When Zhao Ming heard this, he was shocked.Hurriedly took the beating report, unfolded it to watch, only glanced at it, and his face suddenly sank."

Your Highness, what happened in Jiangbei?"

Gu Yanwu asked cautiously.Zhao Ming handed him the beating report, but he didn't bother to speak, he was really tired.Gu Yanwu took it over and watched, with an unbelievable look on his face, trembling, and said in a broken voice, "King Lu is actually the opposite!"

”Zhu Yihai's own statement is that it is difficult for him to raise troops.On the Manchu side, Azig had just been martyred and successfully ascended the throne as emperor, I don't know if it stimulated Zhu Yihai and made him also make up his mind to raise troops to seize the throne.Jiangbei urgent report, Zhu Yihai did not accept Zhao Ming's suggestion to attack Azig, but took advantage of the fact that Azig went north and the pressure on Jiangbei was greatly reduced, and he dispatched the elite of the Huaijiang River, gathered 100,000 troops, and rushed to Nanjing.This time, the world is really in a mess.Zhao Ming covered his face with both hands, and said half-loudly: "Come on!"

Don't toss it alone!

”Zhao Ming originally intended that he would contain in Hebei and create opportunities for the southern front.Now that Zhu Yihai does not come, it will be difficult for Zhejiang's Wu Yue army to take advantage of the road, and the plan to attack from the south will definitely be in vain.This time for the Ming Dynasty, it was an excellent opportunity to strike at the Manchu Qing Dynasty, if it was fought well, it would be possible to recover the Jiangbei Prefecture and push the front line of the Huai River to the front line, and even to capture Xuzhou and Shandong.In this way, the army can rest for a year and a half, and then launch a campaign to recover Beijing, and the Manchu Qing Dynasty is not far from being finished.Now, at such a critical moment, Zhu Yihai reversed, which really made Zhao Ming feel tired.This is not the first time, the defeat of Jiangbei at the beginning, and later Zhao Ming's expedition to the South Seas, all because of internal problems, caused Zhao Ming to fail, or give up halfway.Counting this time, it is only three things, Zhao Ming is really tired.In fact, after Zhu Yihai returned to Jiangbei, Zhao Ming knew that Zhu Yihai was anti-minded, and he was preparing to seize the throne.At the beginning, Zhu Yihai asked Zhao Ming to provide the technology and craftsmen to make flowering bombs, and asked for the return of the Jiangbei Army, which was to raise troops.Zhao Ming kept pressing the Jiangbei Army, just to delay the time for Zhu Yihai to rebel, but Zhu Yihai still couldn't wait and rebelled in advance.Now that Zhu Yihai is at war with Zhu Yujian, Zhao Ming's 20,000 people can't afford to make big waves in Hebei, so they can only give up this opportunity and give Azig the opportunity to regroup.Xie Qian couldn't help but be annoyed: "At such a critical moment, how can King Lu be so disregarding the overall situation!"

”After resisting the Qing Dynasty for more than ten years, he finally waited for such an opportunity, but no one cooperated, which made Xie Qian very angry.Zhao Ming kept a calm face and didn't say anything, first, the matter had come to this, and second, he actually understood Zhu Yihai's decision, and he knew that Zhu Yihai was going to rebel.At the beginning, the Qing army was powerful, and Zhu Yujian was a puppet in Fujian, and it was Zhu Yihai who carried the banner of resisting the Qing Dynasty, fought bloody battles in Zhejiang, defeated the Qing army several times, reversed the general trend, and then recovered Nanjing, which was also his merit.In terms of dedication to the Ming Dynasty and merits, Zhu Yihai thinks that he is far more than Zhu Yujian.Zhu Yujian's throne should have been done by Zhu Yihai, but in order to unify and resist the Qing Dynasty, Zhu Yihai made concessions and recognized Zhu Yujian as the emperor, while he took a step back and served as the prince.He was already a sacrifice and a concession as a prince, but Zhu Yujian took advantage of it and stole his exploits, not only was he grateful, but he designed to frame him, abolished his position as prince, and killed so many henchmen who followed him, no one would just forget it.Ordinary people are bullied like this, and they have to splatter blood in five steps, let alone Zhu Yihai?

After escaping from Nanjing, Zhu Yihai held his breath, and Wu Zhaosheng and other generals hated Zhu Yujian and Emperor Longwu even more.The reason why Zhu Yihai wanted to rebel had been planted as early as when Zhu Yujian abolished the reserve.After Zhu Yihai was deposed, he became anti-minded, but he was trapped in a corner of Jiangbei, sandwiched between the Manchu Qing Dynasty and the Longwu court, and his usual troops were restrained by two lines, so he had no chance at all.This time, Azig led the Xuzhou troops to the north, so that Zhu Yihai did not need to use many troops to defend against the Manchu Qing, and could draw the main force and attack Nanjing in one go.Now Zhu Yihai's strength is weak, and only when he takes advantage of the attention of all forces and is not on him, can he seize Nanjing and ascend the throne as emperor with lightning speed.Otherwise, it would be difficult for him to succeed if other forces intervened.Originally, after Zhao Ming, Zhu Yihai would wait until he returned the Jiangbei soldiers before making a move, not wanting Zhu Yihai to act suddenly.It doesn't matter if he fights together, but Zhao Ming's plan has been disrupted again.Zhao Ming waved his hand and sighed, "Alas, you still need to be safe outside!"

”Although Zhao Ming understood why Zhu Yihai would make such a move, he could not continue to tolerate such a thing that ruined his plan to happen again.From the lessons of the Chongzhen Dynasty to the several losses that Zhao Ming suffered, history told Zhao Ming and made Zhao Ming realize that if the internal situation is unstable and unified, it will be difficult to solve external problems.The Qi family governs the country and the world, and first needs to have peace at home, and then there are things to come.Zhao Ming's eyes became resolute, this time Zhu Yihai raised troops, perhaps it was an opportunity for him to seize power and achieve internal unification.Gu Yanwu listened to Zhao Ming's words, and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and said, "What does Your Highness mean?"

”Zhao Ming didn't say much, saying this would make it seem that he had been planning for a long time.Zhao Ming waved his hand and said in a deep voice: "Mr.

Gu, transfer more ships, and the army will evacuate as soon as possible." ”Since Zhu Yihai raised troops to attack Nanjing, Zhao Ming had to rush back to Jiangdong as soon as possible.Zhu Yihai's forces are now far weaker than the Longwu Imperial Court, and under the sudden attack, even if certain results are achieved, it will be difficult to completely defeat the forces of Longwu.Zhao Ming estimated that the situation in the Ming Dynasty would most likely be split into two courts, like the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and then attack each other.In this way, Zhao Ming planned to split the Manchu Qing and create an opportunity that was not only wasted, but also likely to be taken advantage of by the Manchu Qing.Zhao Ming must rush back to Jiangdong, gather elite troops, solve Zhu Yihai and Zhu Yujian, and take this opportunity to seize the power of the Ming Dynasty, control the Ming Dynasty, and then raise the Northern Expedition.Forced by the situation, now Zhao Ming can only take the route of being safe and secure before going outside.When Gu Yanwu heard this, he understood what Zhao Ming meant, and he couldn't help but feel a little excited in his heart, after the split of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, it was already a yellow flower of tomorrow, and sooner or later it would be destroyed by Wu Yueguo, Zhao Ming wanted to solve the internal problems of the Ming Dynasty first, unify the Ming Dynasty, and seize power, which may not be a bad thing."

Your Highness, rest assured, the minister will arrange it!"

Gu Yanwu immediately saluted, but then said: "It's just that it takes time to mobilize the boats, and it may take a long time to transport the people and materials yet." ”Zhao Ming frowned, although it was unexpected at sea, but transportation was indeed subject to many restrictions, it was not as good as land, you can leave if you want, and you can withdraw if you want.()
