Zhang Ning inquired a lot of things from Luo Yaoniang, and even had information about the main generals in the imperial court's counter-rebellion. These things were completely impossible to hear by hearsay on the street. The emperor initially wanted to send Xue Lu to quell the rebellion, but Xue Lu

They were afraid, and the courtiers also had disputes. Later, they discussed whether the emperor would personally conquer the country, or send the British Duke Zhang Fu, who was highly respected in the military circles.

Then Zhang Ning and his party left the capital. Luo Yaoniang looked a little sad, but her expression was not too exaggerated.

This is good, otherwise what? You want Zhang Ning to say "for your own good", you are the daughter of a court minister, your life is bright, I can't drag you down? This is obviously not Zhang Ning's style.

Looking at the simple map, it is not far from the capital to Le'an, Shandong. When Emperor Yongle was still alive, he said that "capture in the morning and capture in the evening" was a bit exaggerated. The army could not reach it in one day, but for the fast horse team, it was not possible to reach it in one day.

Fake words. At the beginning, Emperor Yongle felt that Zhu Gaoxu would be a hidden danger to the dynasty, but because he was his own son and he remembered Zhu Gaoxu's hard work and merit during the "Jingnan" battle, he could not bear to kill him, so he had already prepared for his children and grandchildren to inherit the throne.

The foreshadowing was laid: the King of Han was transferred to Le'an. Le'an was right in front of the capital, and the most effective fighting camp of the Ming army was in the capital. As long as there was any change in the King of Han, troops could be sent to solve it in a short time to avoid the expansion of the civil war. This is

The so-called "caught in the morning and caught in the evening" obviously meant that Zhu Gaoxu was plotted by his biological father very early on.

On the carriage, Zhang Ning asked Lao Xu: "We have received a lot of news. If you were the King of Han at this time, what should you do?"

Lao Xu was speechless. This battle that had begun to become complicated was beyond his comprehension. After all, Lao Xu had only served as a middle-level military attache. This shows that counselors and strategists have an irreplaceable status.

Zhang Ning considered himself not a strategist, but he felt that this matter was still easy to judge. He said: "If I were the king of Han, I would seize on the two words 'drag' far'. Although Emperor Xuande's name is justified,

But he was young and had just ascended the throne, and his prestige was not as good as that of his uncle, the King of Han. That’s why there were so many people waiting for the outcome of the fire in the capital. At this time, as long as Emperor Xuande could not kill the King of Han in one go, the longer it took, the more beneficial it would be to the King of Han.

.Secondly, to delay time, the best way is to stay away from the elite troops stationed in the capital and leave Shandong to avoid the battle for the time being. It will be difficult for the capital camp to attack from a long distance in a short time. When the victory or defeat of the local defense is uncertain, it is estimated that it will be very difficult.

Very few people are willing to risk their lives to block the King of Han's whereabouts; even if there are, they can be circumvented, and the local army is definitely not willing to take the initiative to pursue him."

Lao Xu said: "My master's knowledge is very far-reaching... I wonder if the King of Han has such knowledge?"

At this moment, Zhang Ning paused. In the historical knowledge he remembered, Zhu Di was the one who stirred up the most prodigal son in the rebellion of the Ming Dynasty vassal kings. The second should be the later King Ning, the King Ning in Tang Bohu's "Autumn Fragrance". But King Ning

It didn't take long. Wang Mingyang, a master of the Xin School, didn't wait for the imperial troops to arrive. He cobbled together a group of troops and killed King Ning. Except for these two, other vassal kings in history struggled for a long time.

Even shorter, including the King of Han in front of me.

Zhang Ning deduced a little and felt that if the King of Han left Shandong and went south to capture the south of the Yangtze River, regardless of victory or defeat, he would definitely not be destroyed so easily. The problem is that there is no such drama in history.

After thinking about it, he replied helplessly: "I'm afraid he won't do that."

At this time, the middle-aged believer who was driving the car said from the front through the curtain: "There is one of our strongholds outside Jinan City. I went there when I was a messenger within the church and knew the people there. Jinan is very close to Le'an, why don't we go there?"

Where to stay?”

The two believers are both surnamed Jiang, the middle-aged one is Jiang Youde, and the young one is named Jiang Hai. They should be relatives. When they first met, Zhang Ning couldn't quite distinguish their names, so he called the middle-aged one Lao Jiang and the young one Jiang Hai.

Xiao Jiang. These two people have some status within the church. It is impossible for ordinary believers to travel so far to Shandong to deliver messages.

Zhang Ning listened to what he said and immediately agreed: "That's good. Jinan Prefecture may be under martial law now, making it difficult to enter, and Le'an is also more dangerous; and if our stronghold can avoid being discovered, it is probably hidden very deep.

"

Jiang Youde turned around and said, "It can withstand the investigation. The house is nominally the property of a large family in the capital. It has the land deed and household registration."

When a group of two carriages approaches Jinan Prefecture, they cannot take the post road. There are checkpoints on the main road as rumored. But it doesn't matter. Roads extend in all directions on the Shandong Plain. You don't need to take the main road. As long as you know the direction and don't get lost; whether it is

Neither the officers and soldiers of Jinan Prefecture nor the rebels of the Han Dynasty could mobilize so many people and horses to block all the roads.

After some troubles, we finally arrived at our destination.

The spacious courtyard, the solid house with white walls and blue tiles, and ponds and trees around it make it look like it is not a house for ordinary people. There are very few people in the courtyard. There is an old man who claims to be the master's housekeeper, and the master lives in the capital.

A person with status. After Jiang Youde recognized him, he showed his token and settled down here. There were many houses, enough to accommodate Zhang Ning and his party of seven.

The old "housekeeper" chatted with Zhang Ning, but Zhang Ning was not interested and signaled Jiang Youde to deal with it. Zhang Ning only said that he wanted a paper and ink case, so the housekeeper opened the study next to the upper room.

As soon as Zhang Ning entered the study, he ordered Wenjun to sharpen his ink, and then started writing quickly. The draft of an article had been brewing for many days, so there was no need to think too much at this time and he just started writing. However, as he was writing, he found that some words and sentences were not appropriate.

I revised it as I wrote it.

At this time, Lao Xu boiled a pot of water from the kitchen, took it into the study, and said to Wenjun, who was waiting for the pen and ink: "Go and ask where there are tea leaves, and make a cup of tea for my boss... This Zhuangzi's etiquette is really not flattering.

"

Zhang Ning put the pen on the inkstone and turned around and said: "There are few of them. I only saw two or three of them. The old man and Lao Jiang were chattering in the living room. The remaining two were probably busy preparing lunch for us. Section

Don't worry about it, there's no need for tea, just find a cup and pour some boiling water to cool it down, then drink it later."

After hearing this, Lao Xu responded.

Several women were in the study, not knowing what to do next. This strange place made everyone a little confused.

Zhang Ning left behind a scribbled article with many corrections, and started writing and drawing on the paper, as if he was thinking about something. After a while, he put down the pen again and looked up at the window.

This village is very quiet, like a "villa" of a wealthy family in the suburbs. It is not built in a densely populated village. You can hear the sparse chirping of birds, and you can also smell the scent of the crop fields, with a natural fragrance.

There is a slight smell of excrement.

Zhang Ning breathed a sigh of relief and thought to himself: Before contacting the outside world, there should be no one to disturb you here, and it is relatively safe. In fact, many troubles are caused by yourself.

He turned to look at Lao Xu, who had just poured boiling water and put it on the table, then looked back at the three women who were watching him, and couldn't help but ask: "Why doesn't the King of Han go south to attack Nanjing?"

Lao Xu didn't speak, but Chunmei said casually: "Don't he want to rebel and become emperor? All he needs to do is conquer the capital. Why would it be troublesome to go all the way from Shandong to Nanjing?"

"It makes sense." Zhang Ning nodded solemnly. Chunmei chuckled and said, "I said it casually, are you right?"

Zhang Ning said: "I think this is what the King of Han thought. What he did seemed to be in a hurry and impatient. With such a mood, he naturally wanted to attack the capital directly to get quick results... But this way is obviously not wise.

"

Chunmei was relaxed and still had a smile on her face: "I think it would be better for Master Zhang and the King of Han to change their identities. If you become the King of Han, you might be able to seize the throne."

Zhang Ning said casually: "I don't want to boast. If I were in the position of the King of Han, I might not be able to seize the throne. But if Zhu Zhanji wants to kill me, it will definitely not be that easy... It's a pity that there are no ifs. I am not the King of Han. I have

Things are far worse than him."

He paused and said seriously: "What are we going to do when we come to Shandong?"

Several people turned to look at him. This was what everyone was concerned about. The wind was very tight here, and it looked like a war was about to begin. What on earth did you want to do by taking the risk?

Zhang Ning said: "As long as we can accomplish one thing, we must find ways to allow the King of Han to lead his troops south to attack Nanjing. It is very important for us that the King of Han be able to stabilize himself and not be wiped out quickly. As long as he is still there, the imperial court will not be able to mobilize the main force to the southwest."

We will have enough time and opportunity to deal with those of us in the border area. Otherwise, things will be extremely difficult."

Chunmei said: "We are not the king of Han. We don't even recognize him. How can we control what he wants to do?"

"It's indeed a bit difficult to handle, but we have to find a way. If we don't try our best to face the difficulties now, we will have to face even bigger problems in the future." Zhang Ning pondered for a moment and said, "The only solution for now is to get help from the Minister of War of the King of Han Dynasty.

I really believe in Yang Shiqi's vision to attack Zhu Heng. Since Yang Shiqi said that Zhu Heng is very knowledgeable and talented, I also estimate that this person is not short-sighted. Moreover, the King of Han was able to treat him with courtesy and courtesy, and directly promoted him to the Minister of War.

The important position shows that Zhu Heng was a man of weight when he spoke in front of the King of Han."

"Master Zhang knows Zhu Heng? Or does he know that this person is greedy for money... lustful? You wouldn't choose a woman among the three of us to use as a honey trap, would you?" Chunmei laughed. This woman gave Zhang Ning the feeling.

This era is very avant-garde, often showing a careless and playful smile.

Zhang Ning shook his head and said: "How can bribery or honey traps be easily effective? Assume that Zhu Heng is greedy for money and lustful, and he keeps the things. Why must he obey the beauty's words, and it is related to military decisions? Zhu Heng can be favored by big shots and rise to the top.

, he is not stupid."
