Chapter 304: Revealing the stuffing (bless the motherland for prosperity)
"The king is pursuing profit by nature, and it is afraid it is difficult to impress with righteousness. Prince, it is a virtue to value love and righteousness, but don't be burdened by it." Ma Jinzhong and Ma Bao are brothers of their family. They had communicated before they came. Knowing that Ma Bao was worried, Li Dingguo spoke and advised him as soon as he finished speaking.
"Yes, the Tao is different and they don't plan to each other." Bai Wenxuan agreed with Ma Jinzhong's statement.
"Your Majesty, you are kind-hearted, but you are afraid that in the eyes of others, you will be able to make a donkey's liver and lungs. You must be careful." Ma Bao said.
"Okay, I know what you mean, so fight for the best." Li Dingguo said lightly.
Ma Bao looked at his absent-minded look and said to himself: "I don't know how much he listened to."
...
In the next few days, Li Dingguo, Liu Wenxiu and Ai Nengqi exchanged views respectively, and both agreed to cast Ming. They were irresistible to Sun Kewang's attitude.
According to Liu Wenxiu, everyone has no ambitions and cannot force it.
Li Dingguo said that he had been in love for many years and could not bear to betray him, so he insisted on convinceing Sun Kewang to join him.
The three of them went to find Sun Kewang together. Sun Kewang's attitude was unclear and kept saying to wait a little longer.
By the end of August, the news that Zhu Youlang had defeated Boluo in Zhangzhou and the news that Kong Youde's troops surrounded Guilin came at the same time. The differences within the Daxi Army on whether to surrender to the bright future were becoming increasingly fierce.
The differences were mainly concentrated on Li Dingguo and Sun Kewang. Li Dingguo insisted on winning over Ming, but Sun Kewang firmly disagreed. His meaning was to neither surrender to Qing nor Ming, so he occupied Yunnan and relied on his own. When the power was stronger, he would then plan to Guizhou in the north and take Guangxi in the east.
Li Dingguo had very good reasons. He first occupied the title of Dayi, and secondly, the future of the Daxi Army was guaranteed. The Ming army could even defeat Boluo, who could not be seen, so that the entire army was almost wiped out. Can traitors like Kong Youde, Geng Zhongming, and Shang Kexi be opponents?
Sun Kewang's statement also makes sense. First, the title given by Zhu Youlang is too low, which shows that this emperor is also a stingy person. He can't make a good fortune with such an emperor; second, the Ming army seems to have grenades and landmines, but Guilin is surrounded. Obviously, these two firearms are insufficient, and it is difficult to gain a foothold under the large-scale attack of the Qing army. To betrayal is tantamount to digging a grave.
The husband said that the husband was right, and the mother said that the mother was right. The two camps were quarreling, and Liu Wenxiu and Ainengqi also became ambiguous.
Ren Shi's injury has healed, and he has taken the trouble again. Sun Kewang feels that he is not worthy of him and attaches more importance to him than before, and does not hide all the conspiracies from him.
Ren Shi was responsible for the emperor's order and used Sun Kewang's trust to do a lot of work, but Sun Kewang was suspicious by nature, so he didn't dare to do it too obviously.
At the beginning, Sun Kewang was unstable, and Ren Yu dared to say a few good words about Zhu Youlang. When the news of Guilin being surrounded came, seeing that Sun Kewang was determined to refuse to make a fuss, Ren Yu no longer dared to persuade him.
The one who is most anxious is Ma Bao.
Ma Jixiang has established a foothold in Kunming. What Ma Bao knows is a newly opened pastry warehouse called "Fulai" at the foot of Wuhua Mountain. Of course, there are also things Ma Bao doesn't know about.
On this day, Ma Bao entered the "Fulai" warehouse on the excuse of buying tea. In order to avoid suspicion, Ma Bao only brought his own captain Ma to ask for his son.
The shopkeeper of the "Fu Lai" warehouse is called Xu Fu. He is a man in his thirties who looks like Maitreya Buddha. He laughs before he speaks, and he smears three times on his mouth, making him look like a sloppy businessman.
"Oh, Jun Ye, are you here? Welcome to the shop." When Xu Fu saw Ma Bao, he immediately nodded and greeted him.
"Do you have peach sauce?" Ma Bao looked at the other customers in the store and asked casually.
"Yes! There are all kinds of snacks in our store. Jun Ye, the peach crisps are roasting in the yard of the shop. Why don't you come in and take a look?" Xu Fu asked with a smile.
"Okay, let's see how you bake it." Ma Bao said, following Xu Fu and stepped into the backyard, while Ma Qiuzi stayed in the store to guard him.
Xu Fu led Ma Bao to the warehouse, and a guy was guarding the door. Xu Fu waved his hand, and the guy turned around and opened the lock, letting the two of them in.
"Master Ma, look, all the goods you want are here." Xu Fu said, pointing to the row of wooden boxes lined by the wall.
Ma Bao walked over and checked it. There were ten boxes in total. One box was uncovered and found that eight boxes were grenades and two boxes of mines.
"Xu Fu, how many of you are?" Ma Bao asked.
"Five. Four are busy with the affairs of the store, and one is dedicated to guarding these treasures."
"Okay, let's stay here for the time being. It's too easy to be exposed when moving around. When using it, I will send my personal captain to pick it up. The one who came with me, he called Ma and I can be trusted." Ma Bao said.
“Yes, remember.”
"What is the emperor's will?"
"Mah, the emperor won a great victory in Zhangzhou, completely wiped out the Boluo army, subdued Shi Lang, and defeated Zheng Zhilong's 100,000 naval forces. Now Fujian and the southeastern seas have been completely stable. However, because the Qing soldiers suddenly strengthened the offensive in Jiangxi and cut off our pig iron supply, the production of grenades and mines was greatly affected. Now they can only rely on the people to collect scrap iron to maintain production. Kong Youde strengthened the offensives in the whole province and Guilin, and the emperor was preparing to personally lead the expedition to break the siege of Guilin. However, because they were restrained by Jiangxi, there were too few troops, and only more than 10,000 imperial guards could take the expedition. Therefore, the emperor ordered you to take action quickly and immediately promote Li Dingguo's surrender, and then ordered him to go east to Guilin and cooperate with the emperor to fight a big battle. The emperor said that this battle would annihilate all the troops of Kong Youde, Geng Zhongming, and Shang Kexi!"
"Okay, I'll hold on. But Prince Li can't make up his mind until now, so I'm also anxious."
"The emperor said, you can't wait. You have to find a way to promote Li Dingguo anyway."
"Okay, I'll contact my cousin immediately when I go back. If it really doesn't work, I'll fuck him and kill Sun Kewang! However, we only have 20,000 troops, and the elite are all in Feng Shuangli's hands. Only by finding a way to understand Feng Shuangli is the perfect solution."
"Okay, Mr. Ma, I'm waiting for your news. You must hurry up. The emperor can wait for the news here before he can decide what to do next."
"Well, don't worry, I can save it. We will start after I have arranged it. In addition, you should also pay attention to safety and guard these ten boxes of treasures. Be more careful and never reveal it. If someone from the official comes to ask, it will be my business. As long as you mention my name, they will not dare to do anything."
"good."
...
Ma Bao and Ma left for a son. In order to cover up people's eyes, Xu Fu personally booked a few snacks and asked Ma to carry them.
Looking at Ma Bao's back as he was leaving, Xu Fu showed a dark smile on his face. He glanced at a man dressed in a casual man at the door of the store and turned around and went into the store.
Ma Bao didn't know that his appearance brought the "Fulai" warehouse into a person's field of vision and attracted Sun Kewang's attention.
