Chapter 70: The Three Impossibles of Wolong in the World

"Governor, no, Shi Lang's army is coming!"

Liu Guoxuan hurriedly broke into Zheng Chenggong's tent and reported loudly.

"Haha, Shi Lang is really anxious. He just sent Shi Zhaoxu to come ten days ago and will attack Kinmen today. Isn't he afraid that Yongli will kill him?" Zheng Chenggong said calmly.

"Governor, no, without Yongli's will, he dares to attack?" Liu Guoxuan asked.

"Yongli wants to clean up the hearts of the people, and he will not attack us for no reason, because we are not his enemies. It must be Shi Lang's own decision to do so urgently." Zheng Chenggong said.

"What should I do? Or not?"

"I can't fight. Shi Lang's troops are twice as powerful as mine, and he has the benefits of grenades. We are not his opponent. For the sake of the present, there is only 'drag'. I don't think Yongli knows that if he knows that we go to Taiwan, he will definitely not attack us."

"So, the governor's intention is to drag it until the Yongli imperial edict arrives?"

"yes."

"How can I drag it?"

"The reason Shi Lang was in a hurry to attack us was because he was afraid that I would surrender to affect his status. Therefore, he had to send someone to see him and tell him about my plan to go to Taiwan to see if he could dispel his concerns. If he still insisted on attacking and told him, I would surrender to Chen Zhongwu."

"Miscellaneous, the governor's skill in grasping the hearts is meticulous, Guoxuan admires it. No wonder the governor is not panicked at all. It turns out that he has made a decision."

"Hahaha, Guoxuan, don't be full of words. Shi Lang is now in a prosperous and ambitious. Will he do what I said? It's still apart. Just call Chen Yonghua, he has the best relationship with Shi Lang, and let him see Shi Lang."

"Abide by the order!"

...

Chen Yonghua, whose courtesy name was Fufu, was from Longxi, Zhangzhou, and was fifteen years old. His father Chen Ding was also an official under Zheng Zhilong's tent and was killed by the Qing soldiers.

Although he is so young, he is quick-witted and has a great understanding. He is highly appreciated by Zheng Chenggong and called him "the lying dragon of the world."

Zheng Chenggong's strategy of entering Taiwan to seek independence was offered by Chen Yonghua.

Shi Lang is arrogant and strong, and it is difficult to get along with others. Among these generals under Zheng Chenggong's account, he could talk to this fifteen-year-old boy. After surrendering to Yongli, he also sent someone to persuade Chen Yonghua. Unfortunately, Chen Yonghua returned to the Zheng family, "The father and son served the Zheng family with great kindness, and they really couldn't bear to go against each other." He refused to come and surrender, which made Shi Lang very regretful.

Chen Yonghua received the order from Zheng Chenggong and took a small boat to the Ming army camp to ask for Shi Lang. When Shi Lang heard that Chen Yonghua was coming, he was overjoyed and thought that he was coming to surrender when he saw that the situation was critical and he hurriedly ordered him to ask him.

After seeing each other, Shi Lang asked happily: "Fu Fu, are you here to help your brother this time?"

"Brother Shi, I have received great kindness from my loyalty and filial piety in my life. How can I be willing to sell my master for honor? Brother Shi, don't make things difficult for me." Chen Yonghua replied.

When Shi Lang heard something in his words, he did not call Zheng Chenggong the governor, but called him "Zhongxiao Bo". He seemed to have some advice, and asked with a deep face: "Fufu, did he betray Zheng for his brother?"

"I dare not. Brother Shi, I know the grudges between you and your uncle's family and have always been in good terms with you. How dare I mock my elder brother?"

"So, Fufu, are you here to be a lobbyist for Zheng Chenggong?"

"Yes, Brother Shi, I am here to persuade you to stop the army and let Uncle Zheng go south to Taiwan."

"Hahaha, Fufu, are you talking in your sleep? Fufu, you also see that the current emperor is the blood of the master Wanli. If it comes to royal blood, it is closer than the two emperors Longwu and Shaowu. Today, Zheng Chenggong has always been under the banner of Longwu and refused to submit to the emperor. He said he is loyal to the Ming Dynasty, and seems so loyal and affectionate, just to deceive the world. In fact, what is his idea in his heart? You know and I know, but he just wants to save his family's wealth and seek independence. Fufu, do you dare to say it, right?

Also, the emperor has not touched him, but he just hopes that he can repent and return to the anti-Qing and restoration camp. The former is because Zheng Zhilong is involved in the Qing Dynasty, the emperor understands Zheng Chenggong's embarrassment and does not force him. But now Zheng Zhilong is dead and is killed by the Qing slave. Zheng Chenggong should not be obsessed with whether it is national hatred or family hatred. In the former, I sent Zhao Xu to praise the filial piety and persuade him kindly. He put forward two harsh conditions, one is to kill Li Chengdong and the other is to be granted the title of king. This is obviously not to surrender. Now that my army has surrounded Kinmen, I remember that I have left, there is no such a cheap thing. Fufu, don't waste my words. Now I am on the string and have to fire it. It is too late for him to surrender now, let alone let the elder brother let him have a way out." Shi Lang said with a sneer.

"Brother Shi, don't be anxious. Listen to me first, can you?" Chen Yonghua said quickly after hearing Shi Lang say something.

"Okay, tell me, brother knows that you have always been good at speaking and discerning, let's see if you can touch me, brother." Shi Lang said.

"Brother Shi, what does Uncle Zheng think in his heart? As a subordinate, I dare not comment, but if my brother attacks Kinmen, I think there are three things I can't do."

"Oh? Tell me."

"No matter whether Master Zheng is taking Yongli or not, he is still nominally under the banner of Longwu. He is also a minister of the Ming Dynasty and has not surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, and he will never surrender to the Qing Dynasty. Brother Shi, if the current situation is the Ming and Qing Dynasty fighting for the world, Yongli has always emphasized that the Han people in the world should unite and fight against the Qing slaves together. If you attack Kinmen, it is untenable in the righteousness that the Han people are fighting against the Han people. Now that the Qing slaves are in a big way, how can it be difficult for the relatives to suffer and the enemy to be happy? This is absolutely impossible."

"If my brother insists on fighting, there are only two consequences. One is that Master Zheng resists desperately. Of course, with Master Zheng's strength, he is definitely not your opponent. But Brother, don't you hear the principle of "killing one thousand enemies and destroying yourself 800"? Do you think it's appropriate to let so many soldiers die in the civil war, rather than on the front line of the anti-Qing Dynasty? Another result is that Master Zheng knows that he can't beat him, so he has to surrender. Brother, do you think if Master Zheng really wants to surrender, is it a good or a bad thing for you? In fact, when my younger brother comes, Master Zheng has already said that if his elder brother struggles with each other, he will surrender to Chen Zhongwu. This is two.

"He dares?! I don't allow it..." Shi Lang became anxious when he heard this, thinking, "I don't allow him to surrender." He swallowed it back when he was about to his mouth. How could this be made clear to others?

"Brother Shi, you don't know who Chen Zhongwu is. He is a royal relative. Although he is your subordinate, can you not allow him to surrender?" Chen Yonghua followed closely.

"Then... what about three?" Shi Lang didn't expect that Zheng Chengyi used this move. It was indeed not what Shi Lang wanted to surrender, so he pondered for a while and asked.
