Chapter 30 Nanming

The autumn waters are endless, but the road has been delayed a lot. It was more than twenty days later when Zuo Houde and his group arrived in Youzhou.

After entering the city, Zuo Houde was not easy to arrange it. His family had a place to live in the city, but these divisions were not available!

So Zuo Houde was a little worried and said this to Zuo Jizu, who cursed: "Don't you! Your subordinates are all from Youzhou City. After finally returning to the city, you don't let them go home. Wouldn't you be confused!"

When Zuo Houde heard this, he immediately realized that he was really confused: "Zhang Long, are you brothers not from Youzhou City?"

Zhang Long is also a clever one: "General Qi, the brothers are all from Youzhou, but there are one or two, but you can just find a brother's house to stay for a few days."

"Okay!" Zuo Houde solved a problem, which was naturally a happy mood.

...

At this time, Luo Lie's mansion.

Luo Lie was originally a fourth-rank general who was named together with Zuo Houde, but Luo Lie was not arranged in the county below, but stayed in Youzhou City to serve as a commander of the fifth battalion. In fact, he was responsible for some security issues in the city. After serving as a commander for several years, Luo Lie became more informed. As soon as Zuo Houde entered the city, Luo Lie learned about it.

When Zuo Houde and others left, they asked people to come and clean it up often, and now they can move in directly. As soon as Zuo Houde sat down, Luo Lie arrived at Zuo Houde's house.

"This Taoist general is back! Hahaha!" Luo Lie couldn't help but smile when he thought of Zuo Houde's nickname. It was obvious that after being the command room of the fifth battalion for several years, Luo Lie was much normal, at least his facial expressions were much more than before.

Zuo Houde was also a little helpless. He didn't expect that this title would actually be spread to Youzhou City, and immediately corrected: "That's a rumor."

"Hahaha, Taoist General, this title is very suitable for you." Luo Lie didn't listen to what Zuo Houde said at all.

Zuo Houde could only change the topic: "Okay, you have become laughing all these years."

Luo Lie smiled bitterly: "Oh! After all, there is no need to be in the army. If possible, I still want to be in the army. But you will probably be in the army when you come back this time."

Zuo Houde didn't know where Luo Lie knew, but he knew that Luo Lie had always been well-informed, and immediately asked: "Where did you get the news?"

"You don't know yet. The emperor is going to fight with Nanming recently." Luo Lie said mysteriously.

"Really? Where did you come from?" Zuo Houde was shocked.

"I am the command room of the Fifth Battalion. I am still very proficient in the news in Youzhou City. Besides, this is the news from the palace!" Luo Lie looked proud.

Zuo Houde knew that Luo Lie said this and knew that most of the time, it would not be false. Even the concept was the same as the King of Yan back then. This was the news released by the emperor himself, just to see the reaction below.

"If you want to fight, won't you go?" Zuo Houde couldn't help asking.

Luo Lie also sighed, "The old father at home is in poor health. I still have to take care of him at home. If it is this year's war, I really can't go."

When Zuo Houde heard that Luo Lie's father was in poor health, he stopped asking more questions. The two of them did not mention the court affairs next time, but simply talked about the next family matters.

Luo Lie didn't know that Zuo Houde had a son and a daughter, so he couldn't help but envy: "I have two sons, but I don't have half a daughter. My wife really wanted a daughter, but she couldn't get it."

"It's okay, it's good not to have a daughter. You can't even know how pleasant it is to have a daughter." Zuo Houde couldn't help but sprinkle salt on the wound.

After dinner, Zuo Houde personally sent Luo Lie away.

Sitting alone in the yard, Zuo Houde began to think about what Luo Lie said today about mobilizing troops to Nanming.

The pattern of the world is clear at present, including Dayan in the north, Daliang in the south and Daming in the south. Most of the world is going to choose a master from these three families.

The great disaster is coming, the heaven and earth are dark, and the sun and the moon are gone.

Huang Tian is about to die.

Heaven is about to be born.

The world will change a lot.

The world will be in chaos, Maitreya Buddha will be born and the Ming King will be born.

The red scarf is in the courtyard and will control China.

This was the slogan of the Red Turban Army or the White Lotus Sect back then. I didn’t expect that the country would be established. Yes, the emperor of the Southern Ming Dynasty is Han Tingzhi, the leader of the Red Turban Army back then.

Han Tingzhi is indeed an amazing figure. Every time the end of the dynasty, there are so-called White Lotus Sect's rebellion, but there has never been a successful precedent. Han Tingzhi is this precedent. He founded the Red Turban Army as the leader of the White Lotus Sect, and then directly led the Red Turban Army to overthrow the Song Dynasty and then established the Ming Dynasty. Even in recent years, he has always gained the upper hand in the showdown in Daliang, and now he has the momentum to unify the south.

Zuo Houde didn't expect that Hong Zaixing actually wanted to send troops to the Nanming. If you pick up the persimmons, you should hit the big beam first. Moreover, you just unified the north a few years ago, and the internal situation was not digested intact. For the Nanming army, you might directly pull out the internal unstable factors.

Of course, this is just Zuo Houde's personal opinion. Zuo Houde does not doubt whether Hong Zaixing was a wise monarch. It may not be necessary to govern the country, but in military terms, Zuo Houde still believes in this champion Hou at that time. In Zuo Houde's opinion, perhaps there was something that he had not seen that prompted Hong Zaixing to send troops to the Southern Ming Dynasty.

...

Indeed, there was a place that Zuo Houde had not seen that prompted the emperor of Dayan to send troops, that was, Daliang sent an envoy to see Hong Zaixing, saying that he wanted to surrender to Dayan. Of course, the emperor of Daliang also asked for a lot of things, such as hereditary titles, fiefdoms, etc., and Hong Zaixing believed it a little.

Moreover, the Emperor of Daliang was even more willing to express his sincerity and sent troops to attack the Ming Dynasty from the left, dragging the southern defenders of the Ming Dynasty. The above statement prompted Hong Zaixing to send troops to the Ming Dynasty.

As for whether Daliang will keep his promise, it doesn't matter at all in Hong Zaixing's opinion. As long as Daliang is willing to express his sincerity to attack Daming, it's fine. After all, it can really capture Daming. Daliang is just a dish in Hong Zaixing's opinion.

Nanjing City, Daliang's capital. Liang Yong was also very helpless in the palace. The Ming Dynasty is now aggressive. Daliang is really in danger of destroying the country. Besides, he had already found out about the news from Youzhou - Dayan wanted to send troops south. Dayan would definitely be the first to attack Daliang. After all, it is a truth that everyone knows.

Liang Yong was born as a scholar. When he was young, he was ordered to be a county in the Song Dynasty. Later, he actively realized that the situation in the Song Dynasty was very bad, so he took the initiative to win over the upper and lower levels and organize his own strength. Later, he even claimed that he was the reincarnation of Ziwei, gathered the people to conquer Nanjing, and established Daliang.

In fact, Liang Yong's letter of surrender was also scheming. If you remove his humble and surrender conditions, it just means that you are willing to send troops to the Ming Dynasty and let Da Yan send troops. Isn't it just a letter of national division that divides the Ming Dynasty?

As for the conditions for surrender, it will be a future event. Liang Yongcheng will not admit that it will take a look at the situation. This is just a "submission book" written to make Da Yan give up attacking Da Liang. Of course, even to the point of surrender, this "submission book" is another way out.

So in Liang Yong's view, this is a three-killing eagle, and it is just a few promises that are not necessarily fulfilled. First, the Great Swallow will not attack Daliang, second, the Great Swallow will divide the Ming Dynasty with Daliang, and third, it leaves a way out for himself.
