After receiving the transfer order, Zheng Xi rushed to Jianning non-stop with only 800 personal guards. When passing through Chengdu, Yan Lan went out of the city to meet him briefly, and then took Du Jun, Gu Ning, Meng Jinghe with him.

Monks Peak March.

After Zheng Xi and Yan Lan met, they learned that His Majesty had asked King Shu to join the Southeast Bureau as deputy chief of staff. He had no opinion on this. It was not a big deal for the emperor's son to become deputy chief of staff. After all, the Southeast Bureau had Qing

With Shuai sitting in charge, he must be worry-free. He just didn't understand why Yan Lan would deliberately tell him about this matter.

"Marquis Xingguo, it is said that the six counties of Dali have been lost. Only Jianning and Dali Mansion are left. We don't have many soldiers and horses. Should we stick to Jianning first? It would be better to gather food, grass and weapons in Dali Mansion?

"Shang Feng, the newly appointed logistics commander of the Southwest Bureau, asked during a break.

Last year, because of his meritorious service in the Southeast Bureau, Meng Yan also promoted Zheng Xi to the title of Marquis in order to limit Lu Ping's power.

"Stick to the bullshit! I came here to destroy these beasts. I have been running Zhaonan for many years, and the people live and work in peace and contentment. You ask who still wants the Zhu Mu family to come back? If I were the remnant of the Zhu Mu family in Zhaonan, I would have done it long ago.

Just kill them all!"

Zheng Xi wanted to kill Jing Yi when he mentioned the judgment of Zhu Mu's survivors. If he hadn't written a letter asking for good treatment of Zhu Mu's survivors, the six counties of Dali would not have suffered such a devastating blow.

"Marquis Xingguo must be careful, your majesty agrees to treat the Zhu Mu clan's survivors well!" Prince Meng Jinghe of Nanzheng County reminded dissatisfiedly.

"Prince Nanzheng, although you are a royal prince, I am the commander-in-chief in the Southwest Bureau. If you feel that my words are inappropriate, you can report it to Chengdu. Even if you report to Changsha, I will not frown!" Zheng

Xi replied unceremoniously.

"Prince of Nanzheng County, it's not that serious. What happened back then was to stabilize Zhaonan. His Majesty's will was correct, but there were indeed problems with the care of the Zhu Mu family's survivors, which led to the disappearance of Duke Jing. This is an indisputable fact."

Ning's response was also abrupt.

Meng Jing and Du Jun were silent, and Du Jun, who had been silent all this time, had a big head. Although the Du family said they were surrendered like the Gu family, they were completely different in nature. The Gu family founded the country with His Majesty, and Gu Yanfeng was

The Prime Minister for many years and the Empress were also from the Gu family, but the Du family rebelled first and then surrendered. Since returning to the court, the Du family has been acting cautiously. She thought she would be able to make a contribution this time and win a breath for the Du family, but looking at the situation in front of her, she was afraid

It's extremely difficult.

Each of these people in front of Du Jun has an extraordinary background. Zheng Xina is a veteran in the army. He was first the deputy general of Yingshuai and later followed Hushuai. There is no need to think about his temper. His nickname "Living King of Hell" can explain it.

everything.

Gu Ning is even more amazing. The Queen is his aunt, and Gu Yanfeng, the former prime minister of Zheng Guogong, is his father. Even the prince is very friendly to him, often calling him "my brother", and even more so when he is in charge of tax inspection.

He is strict, and the inspectors in his hands are no less powerful than the elite guards in the army.

As for the identity of Prince Meng Jinghe of Nanzheng County, it goes without saying that he is the concubine of King Qin. He is favored by His Majesty and is personally named the County King.

The worst experience of Shang Feng is not comparable to his. He was born in both houses and was a disciple of the Emperor. He went from the West Stage to the Chancellor's Stand and then to the Cabinet. He went through the three major departments of the central government and was highly praised by the prince.

He didn't dare to offend any of these four people. No wonder his brother reminded him to pay attention to what he said when he was in Chengdu, right? Even before he got to Jianning, he had already started to fight.

"Commander Du, after arriving in Jianning tomorrow, you will immediately lead 30,000 troops to seize Qujing Mansion and cut off their access to the two provinces of Guizhou!"

Zheng Xi's order made Du Jun wake up from his reverie. This order was too tough and difficult for him. He wanted to refuse, but he held it back, cupping his fists and saying, "I will obey the military order!"

Zheng Xi was still very satisfied with Du Jun's attitude, and then said: "General Staff Gu, don't be idle. I will give you 20,000 troops to approach Jinning Town. I will make Donghai and Zhu Mu's sleep uneasy!"

"

"Don't worry, Marquis Xingguo, I will make them tasteless!" Gu Ning responded confidently.

"Since the Prince of Nanzheng County is of great importance, there are still 30,000 troops in Dali Mansion, so I will leave them to your command. As long as you hold Dali Mansion, it will be fine. After we have dealt with the other Donghai people, we will immediately turn to Dali to deal with Zhu Mu in Zhenxi.

"Shi!" Zheng Xi said seriously, he had no hope for Meng Jinghe.

"Is this a military order from the commander-in-chief?" Meng Jinghe said calmly without being angry at all.

"Yes, this is the military order!"

"Okay, it's a military order and I will do it. However, as Marquis of Xingguo, I am also the deputy general staff of the Southwest Bureau and have the authority to submit reports."

"As you please!" Zheng Xi didn't care.

"Then I wish the commander-in-chief and all the generals good luck with their trip. My subordinates will ensure the supply of food and grass in Jianning City." Shang Feng cupped his hands and said with a smile.

The five people were about to disperse when Shang Feng suddenly stopped everyone and reminded: "Everyone, Jianning City is still in the hands of General Xiahou. We haven't handed it over yet. Is this going too far?"

Zheng Xi was stunned for a moment, then smiled and patted Shang Feng on the shoulder and said, "Thank you, Lord Shang, for reminding me. I will take the first step and hand over to Xiahou tomorrow morning!"

Gu Yanfeng and Murong Changfeng here quickly headed to Bihai City. When they arrived at Jiuchenjing, Deng Ang hosted a banquet for them.

Murong Changfeng looked at the prosperous scene of old Chenjing and couldn't help but admired: "In the current situation, it is not easy for Chenjing to still have such a prosperous scene!"

"My Majesty is people-oriented and pays more attention to the development of business and trade. Old Chenjing is an important town in the south and was busier than before the war." Gu Yanfeng stroked his beard and said with a smile.

Murong Changfeng smiled awkwardly and did not respond. He just raised his hand. He could not refute this. When he retreated to the old Chenjing, he took all the treasury and then moved to South Vietnam, so he had some respect for the people of Chenjing.

Guilty.

After years of experience, Murong Changfeng is no longer the ruthless person he was before. Sometimes he wonders if his original choice was the right one. Now that he sees the scene in Chenjing, he has even more mixed emotions.

After the group entered the Southern Bureau station, Deng Ang had been waiting outside the door early. When he saw Gu Yanfeng and others, he saluted respectfully and said: "Deng Ang pays homage to Prime Minister Gu!"

Gu Yanfeng waved his hands and said with a smile: "Commander Deng is so polite. I am no longer in charge of the Chancery. Your Majesty will take over. He should be the most respected Prime Minister!"

Deng Ang glanced at Murong Changfeng. He knew Murong Changfeng, but he did not intend to pay attention to him, and then continued to say respectfully: "My father sent you a letter a few days ago, asking me to receive you well, no matter what

Whether you are in charge of the chancellery or not, you will always be the prime minister of the Xuan Dynasty."

Even though Gu Yanfeng knew that Deng Ang was trying to flatter him, he still found it useful. He smiled and said, "By the way, the imperial court's decree for promotion must have arrived, right? I am here to congratulate Deng Shuai.

One sect and two gentlemen, I am the noblest of all officials!"

After Deng Gang took over the Shangshutai, Meng Yan decreed that Deng Gang be granted the title of Duke of Song Dynasty, and Deng Ang was also granted the title of Duke of Changling County because he was in charge of the Southern Bureau. Therefore, there is a saying that Deng Gang, Deng Ang and his son, Deng Ang, were the Duke of Song Dynasty.

Gang was in charge of the Secretariat, the second prime minister of the Daxuan Dynasty, known as Deng Xiang, and Deng Ang was the commander-in-chief of the Southern Bureau; Tan Yong and Tan Ji were the father and son, and Tan Yong was promoted to be the Duke of Yuexi County, while Tan Ji was the chief of general staff in the General Bureau, and Jin was appointed

Jingshan County Duke, this is already the most powerful father-son partnership in the Daxuan court.

"Gu Xiangmiao praised me, I am all working for the imperial court and His Majesty!" Deng Ang said with a smile.

After a while of greetings, Murong Changfeng, who had been standing next to him, was very embarrassed. He knew that Deng Ang didn't like him, but he was representing the Daning court now, so he still had to be dignified. He coughed twice.

After the voice, he said coldly: "Mr. Changling County, I would like to see you, Murong Changfeng, the envoy of Daning!"

After hearing this, Deng Ang turned around and sneered: "Oh! Sorry, I forgot that there is an envoy. Please take a seat!"

After the not-so-pleasant meal, Deng Ang sent someone to move Murong Changfeng and other members of the Daning envoy to the branch of the old Chenjing Guest House to rest.

When Gu Yanfeng was about to take a rest, he was stopped by Deng Ang. Deng Ang took out a classified military report from his arms and handed it to Gu Yanfeng.

Gu Yanfeng looked at Deng Ang in confusion and saw Deng Ang whisper: "Prime Minister Gu, your Majesty has sent this to you through the National Security Agency. Please read it and write back to Your Majesty. Your Majesty is waiting for you."

If you don’t know it, you will be shocked when you read it. There are five pieces of information in this secret letter. The first is that Chen Zhiqing has arrived at the outskirts of Sanmen Town, but a large number of navy troops from the East China Sea have gathered at the port of Sanmen Town. Chen Zhiqing requested an order to adjust the East China Sea.

Navy.

Second, Ye Bohuai arrived at Yunfang Island and basically confirmed that Yang Boqin was the leader of "Zhu Yan", and Ye Bohuai was the leader of "Zhu Yan" in the Central Plains.

Third, the Southwest Bureau recovered the lost territory smoothly, and almost all enemy forces in the East China Sea were cleared except Zhenxi and Yongchang. However, the conflict between Nanzheng County Prince Meng Jinghe and Zheng Xi intensified, which was not conducive to the stability of the Southwest Bureau.

Fourth, it has been confirmed that Jing Yi is dead in Yongchang Mansion.

Fifth, Zheng Xi and Gu Ning went deep into the southwest hinterland to pursue the main force of Donghai into the Dahuang Mountains. After the rainy season came, they lost contact with Jianning Mansion.

Gu Yanfeng looked at Deng Ang, who said: "They just arrived this morning. As of today, Zheng Xi's army has been out of contact for nine days."

"Who is attacking Yongchang now?" Gu Yanfeng asked with squinted eyes.

"Du Jun!"

"What do you mean, Your Majesty?"

"Your Majesty has asked the British commander to secretly send envoys to the Taixi people south of the Dahuang Mountain, hoping that they will respond."

Gu Yanfeng shook his head and said: "It is difficult to get out of the Great Wilderness Mountain. Both our people and the Donghai people must be in a dilemma now. After Zheng Xi's temperament wipes out the Donghai people, he will definitely retreat. This is the most unreasonable thing.

Taken from it, when the rainy season comes, the miasma of the Great Wilderness Mountain comes out. It is right to enter the Taixi people, but how to contact Zheng Xi will be troublesome."

"Yes! I was frightened when I found out!" Deng Ang said worriedly. He knew Zheng Xi's temperament very well, and letting him survive under the protection of foreigners was simply an insult to him.

"Now we should let Du Jun and others speed up to regain the lost territory, so that the Marquis Anding of the Six Counties of Dali can find a way to send people into the Dahuang Mountain. However, I always feel that things are not that simple. The people from the East China Sea came from the south. They don't know the situation in the Dahuang Mountain?

"Gu Yanfeng said doubtfully.

Suddenly Gu Yanfeng's face was shocked, and then he looked at Deng Ang. Deng Ang was also shocked and murmured: "What Mr. Gu means is that this was done intentionally by the people of Donghai?!"
