Chapter 992

A newest 800-ton battleship sailed into Shanghai Port and docked on the dock. This is a Western-style battleship made of oak, with two layers of gun decks, equipped with seventy-four cannons, and equipped with Western soft sails.

A big and thick fur merchant came down from the boat, followed by more than 200 guys. Each of them had strong bodies and strong faces. He knew at a glance that he was not a good person.

Behind him, there were two maids dressed in North Koreans, who helped a little luoli dressed in North Koreans off the boat. I saw that this little luoli was about eleven years old, looking like a porcelain doll, very cute.

"Miss, I'm ready to change the boat." A bearded guy walked up to the little luoli and bowed to her.

"Old Pu, why can't we go directly to Nanjing but have to change boats here?" the little luoli asked.

Beard replied: "Miss, our big ship cannot pass Chongming, so we can only transfer to the small boat to walk from the Suzhou River."

"Then let's change." The little luoli rose up. Although she had been holding onto this big ship for several days when she came to Shanghai and couldn't stand the bumps on the sea, she still liked the big ship very much. On the big ship, she lived in the most noble captain's room, with the luxurious decoration of the captain's room and the large bed in it was very comfortable. Although the sea was very windy and waves shortly after leaving Sakhalin Island, the little girl was still interested in the ship and ran all over the boat.

The group of people transferred to two small boats, but they were not considered small boats, but were considered large boats in the inland river. The fur merchant and the lady in the lead took a three-story pleasure boat, and more than a dozen followers followed the boat. The rest of the people boarded the two cargo ships in the style of the inland river boats behind.

The fleet entered the Suzhou River and drove westward until it reached Taicang, entered the Yangtze River again, and then went upstream and headed towards Nanjing.

In Nanjing, in the Duke of Chu's Mansion, a personal soldier came in with a waist sign and reported to Li Guodong: "Dude, a Mongolian fur merchant named Subude wants to see you. This is his waist sign."

At this time, Li Guodong had already known about Dorgon's death. He was writing a memorial, preparing to submit a memorial to the Northern Expedition of the Central Plains and restore the capital. At the same time, he ordered troops from all over the country to mobilize them and prepare to launch a decisive battle with Hong Chengchou's main Qing army in Xiangyang.

As long as Hong Chengchou was annihilated in one fell swoop, the Northern Expedition would be no more obstacles. The Battle of Xiangyang was the key to the Northern Expedition.

When Li Guodong heard that it was Subude who came, he was shocked. He knew that someone would come to Sakhalin Island these days, but he didn't expect that his second brother came to Nanjing in person.

"Let him come in quickly." Li Guodong said.

The personal soldier went out and ran back soon: "Dude, the businessman said he wanted the North Korean girl he brought in. But to be honest, this girl is so beautiful."

"Then you won't let the little girl come in?" Li Guodong said.

After a while, Subud walked into the atrium with a beautiful North Korean girl.

"Haha, brother, we haven't seen each other for nearly twenty years since we parted in the last time on the grassland!" Li Guodong walked forward, and the two brothers hugged each other tightly.

Subude said: "Brother, it's a pity that Oboi refused to leave the seclusion and follow me, otherwise he would have brought him here too."

Li Guodong smiled and said, "It's okay. Although Oboi is a powerful general, the future is the age of firearms, and personal bravery can no longer play a decisive role in the battlefield."

After the two separated, Li Guodong looked at the little girl and asked, "Is this Miss Dong'e?"

"I will meet the Duke of the Kingdom, and the Duke of the Kingdom is auspicious." Dong'e bowed.

"I have heard that Miss Dong'e is as beautiful as a flower. When I saw her today, it turns out to be so. Miss Dong'e, you will live here from now on. No one dares to bully you here. Lingzun and I are old friends for many years." Li Guodong said with a smile.

"Are you not enemies of our Ming Dynasty and our Qing Dynasty? Why are you old friends with Ama?" Dong E asked timidly.

Li Guodong laughed: "Ling Zun is my opponent, but I admire him very much. In addition, war is a man's business, and you, a little girl, have nothing to do with this matter. But why do you say that you are all Dorgon's daughter? Since you have arrived in the Ming Dynasty, I'd better give you a Chinese name. What's the point?"

After thinking for a long time, Li Guodong thought to himself that since Dong'e's surname is Aisin Gioro, he should have his surname Kim. She has half of the Korean descent, so she gave her a Chinese name Kim Hee Sun.

Dong-o, oh, I was wrong, I should be named Kim Hee-sun, staring at Lee Kwok-dong with big round eyes curiously: "God-governor, Ahma said you are very fierce. Why do I think of you as not fierce at all?"

Li Guodong laughed: "I am just a pity. How could I be so fierce to a cute little girl?"

Dorgon entrusts his daughter to Subude, which is equivalent to giving it to himself. Since the delivery is at home, if Li Guodong doesn't accept it with a smile, he will be too sorry for Dorgon.

"You can recall Duoduo from Nanyang and let him meet his niece." Li Guodong said.

Since there was something tricky inside Dorgon's death, it would be easy to deal with. I directly charged Fulinan with a crime of murdering his father. In addition, the numerous crimes committed by Jiannu against the Han people since the Later Jin Dynasty were added, so a seven-death crime was released.

The first crime is that Lao Nu, as a minister of the Ming Dynasty, openly launched a rebellion, which is the first crime; Lao Nu raised an army, seized the land in Liaodong, and massacred the Han people in Liaodong, which is the second crime; Huang Taiji ordered the Later Jin army to invade the Central Plains and plunder the people many times, which is the third crime; Dorgon took advantage of the civil strife of the Ming Dynasty, bribed Wu Sangui, entered Shanhaiguan, and seized the capital, which is the fourth crime; Qing army invaded the Central Plains and killed Yan Shenggong, which is the fifth crime; after the Qing army entered the pass, it attacked the Yellow River, intending to go south to annex the Ming Dynasty, which caused the people of Xiangyang and Lianghuai to suffer a disaster, which is the sixth crime; Fu Lin killed his father, although he was a stepfather, but he was unfaithful and unfilial, which is the seventh crime.

After the seven major crimes were released, Li Guodong revised the memorial and made great preparations to attack the Qing Dynasty.

What? The five-year agreement has not arrived yet? Some pedantic scholars opposed sending troops? What are those scholars? Do you still have to keep the agreement against the enemy? Even if you keep the agreement, Dorgon is already dead. The five-year agreement that year was signed with Dorgon. Dorgon was dead, so the contract will naturally be invalidated.

In fact, when Li Guodong sent people to negotiate with the Qing Dynasty and signed the five-year agreement, he also had his own selfish intentions. His strength at that time was still unable to fight against the whole world, and he was only worried that he would attack the Qing Dynasty too early, which would lead to his defeat with the Qing Dynasty, and he was killed by a rabbit and a dog. Now he no longer had this concern, so he used the excuse that Dorgon was dead and sent troops early to attack the Central Plains.

"Is the Duke of Chu really going to fight north?" Zhang Yan asked with concern.

She knew very well that the intimate cooperative relationship between her and Li Guodong might be about to end. Once Li Guodong returns to the Northern Expedition, what will happen later will happen. She feels a little scared when she thinks about it. A general holding heavy troops and powerful in the Ming Dynasty almost covered the sky with only one hand. Once he returns to victory, will he be honest in hand?

It is certainly impossible. As long as the military power is handed over, it will be the end of the nine clans extermination! But if the military power is not handed over, will it not be Cao Cao Sima in the future?

Even if Li Guodong himself refused to be Cao Cao's Sima, his men would not do it! He would give him a yellow robe. Because if Li Guodong didn't become the emperor, if he died, his men would sooner or later be liquidated by the emperor. If he became the emperor, his men would all be founding heroes.

If Li Guodong becomes the emperor, what should he do? Mostly he would throw it aside or even go to the cold palace. He would become a concubine as an abolished empress dowager? How could that be possible? He is already over forty, and he is fifty in a few years. Li Guodong would establish a concubine, and he would also establish Princess Kunxing.

"Duke of Chu must bring the emperor back safely." Empress Dowager Zhou cried.

Of course what she thought was different from Zhang Yan. As a mother, she only hoped that her son could live well. Empress Dowager Zhou was very worried that Li Guodong would succeed in the Northern Expedition. As a result, Prince Zhu Cilang accidentally died of serious illness, fell off a horse, and died of water. There was always a way for him. Li Guodong did not do this himself, and his subordinates could do it.
