"Duke of Chu, what a great power!"

In the emperor's tent, the teacup fell to the ground. The emperor was furious and the generals knelt down. The Jinyiwei who came to report the news was even more trembling and crawling on the ground.

"Your Majesty... It is said that Su Yi Bo refused the appointment of the fake Ming Dynasty and did not receive any official position in the fake Ming Dynasty..."

"According to the instructor of the subordinates of Suyi Bo's mansion, Suyi Bo also refused to recruit the pseudo-Ming Dynasty, and was coerced to Jiangnan by the rebels..."

After a long time, the Jinyiwei looked up in shock and said with a trembling and frightened his teeth.

It was not until he heard this that the emperor's expression calmed down a little. After a while, he spoke again: "What are you doing when you kneel down? Get up, don't you have to fight?"

The generals stood up in a hurry, and seemed to be busy, but they were trembling and shocked, and they didn't even dare to breathe.

The emperor stood in front of the table, holding the book in his hand tightly, his expression still seemed to be in a state of uncertainty.

After a long time, the emperor seemed to have figured it out. He laughed at himself, his expression changed from darkness to sunny, and then picked up another memorial, which originated from the advice of Li Dingguo, the commander of the Jiangnan Navy Commander.

"Ningbo Port..."

With a gentle whisper, Li Xiu's eyes were also frozen on the map.

In the current situation in Jiangnan, only Jiangsu and Zhejiang, as well as Nanzhili and important areas along the river are still in the hands of Daheng.

The navy will naturally make a contribution to maintaining such a situation.

It was precisely because the navy controlled the inland waters that the rebel navy firmly blocked the sea.

In this way, although Jiangsu and Zhejiang are in chaos, they are still firmly held in Daheng's hands under the suppression of strong soldiers.

The so-called wealth of Jiangnan is half in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. In this way, Jiangnan's wealth can be used by Daheng to a certain extent. However, now rebellions are everywhere, seriously disrupting the normal order of Zhili in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. In addition, the endless wars along the coast are so that the Daheng Navy is in a weak position, which has brought normal maritime trade and commerce to freezing point in Jiangsu and Zhejiang.

In this way, the so-called wealth in Jiangnan is difficult to use by Daheng, and it has become a huge drag on Daheng.

"Work a war, pacify the sea borders of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, unload the sea ban, collect commercial taxes..."

Li Xiu whispered the comments from Li Dingguo in the memorial book, and also judged the pros and cons in his heart.

Daheng’s lack of money is the most fundamental problem.

It is naturally something that can increase wealth.

However, before the situation in northern Xinjiang settled, Jiangnan had another major battle, and it was a navy that was already at a disadvantage. If it won, it would be fine if it was defeated. Once it was lost, the navy would be detained. The rebel navy would go up the river and the entire Jiangnan area would fall sooner or later.

Moreover, the Daheng Navy, the only one who can use it is Jiangnan and Denglai. After the defeat, the Daheng Navy was completely destroyed and rebuilding was not a matter of a day or a night.

The Denglai Navy was rebuilt because the Ming Navy was transferred from Jiangnan to the backbone and reorganized, and it was formed in a short time. Even so, it was consumed in a huge amount of manpower and material resources at the beginning.

If it is rebuilt from scratch, then the current financial situation of Daheng may be an extremely long matter. Without a navy, it may be an extremely long matter to completely quell the situation in Jiangnan.

But if the war is successful, it will be impossible for Ningbo to eliminate the chaos in the sea and borders of Jiangsu and Zhejiang to lift the ban on sea and sea, but it will not be a port for Ningbo. The annual tariffs and commercial taxes will undoubtedly become the biggest source of wealth for Daheng, and will give Daheng's finance, which is now overwhelmed, a huge support!

Pros and cons…

Li Xiu frowned, and thoughts were circulating. After a long time, he made a decision: "Transfer my order to order the Navy of Denglai to temporarily return to the command of the Jiangnan Navy Commander Li Dingguo!"

Immediately, Li Xiu wrote his pen and lines of fonts appeared on the letter paper.

"Send someone immediately to deliver this order to the Secretary of the Ministry of Revenue of Nanjing Hong Chengchou!"

After ordering, Li Xiu was silent for a moment before his eyes moved away from the border of Jiangsu and Zhejiang on the map, and finally frozen in the land of Denglai.

"Let the Ministry of Revenue send people to Liaodong to count the gold and silver seized, half of which belongs to the national treasury, and the remaining half are allocated to the Denglai Shipyard for shipbuilding."

At this time, Li Xiu was a little relieved, but he was also unlucky in his heart. If the naval battles are different on land, if the battle is defeated on land, as long as the organization is organized in an orderly manner, it is not difficult to retreat and fight again.

However, if you are not careful in naval battles, the entire army will be wiped out, and the cycle of warship construction is destined to restore strength after a naval battle, which is far less easy than that of the infantry.

"Hope..."

Li Xiu was also a rare expectation in his heart. Even though he was the emperor, he could only pray that this naval battle would have good results.

Otherwise, Nan Ming would probably really have to gain a firm foothold in Jiangnan!

He was full of thoughts, but in the end, Li Xiu suppressed all kinds of thoughts. No matter how Jiangnan is, it would not shake the national destiny of Daheng. However, even if the war in the northern border is now at the upper hand, if you are not careful, it would be a big move related to the national destiny!

The most important thing at present is to destroy the Later Jin Dynasty!

Li Xiu asked: "What is Lin Danhan's current situation?"

"Report to Your Majesty, Lin Danhan retreated northward. In addition to leaving three thousand households in the headquarters to station in Monan, the main force has returned to Mobei."

"Correspondence on the movements of Lin Danhan, and report any abnormal movements in a timely manner."

The emperor asked again: "What is the situation in Dorgon's army?"

"There is a trend of returning to the aid, but it was blocked by the three-sided governor, and the battle situation is still stalemate."

After getting these two answers, Li Xiu pondered for a while before speaking out:

"Send the order to withdraw the Yongwei camp outside the pass and the Yulin Guards, and do not care about the outside of the pass and join forces with the main force."

"Also, send someone to Xuanhua and ask me why Zhou Yuji has not yet regained Xuanhua City?"

After Li Xiu gave the order in an orderly manner, he looked around the tent, took a step away, and then walked out of the tent.

The aura of golden swords and iron horses outside the tent was strong. The war horses in the camp were galloping, the cannons were rumbling, and the smoke of gunpowder was filled with the sound of shouting outside the village was shocking.

Li Xiu naturally had already become accustomed to all the blood. He stepped onto the stage in a few steps and looked at the battle situation. The scene of this war was clearly reflected in his eyes.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content behind! The so-called war has now completely evolved into a battle of trapped beasts.

From Xuanhua to Zhangjiakou, it is less than a hundred miles away.

Zhou Yuji's troops were already in Xuanhua City, and the main force of the army blocked the border of Xuanfu, strangling the retreat of the Later Jin Dynasty.

Later, the Jin army was surrounded less than a hundred miles away, showing the extreme despair of madness in this fart place, and was in the final battle of trapped beasts.

Thinking of this, Li Xiu couldn't help but chuckled.

In the current situation of the war, unless there is a change in the outside world, the fate of Daishan, the main force of the Later Jin Dynasty, is already destined, and there is only one result of destruction.

Of course, if Dai Shan had the ability of Guangwu and had a meteorite from the sky, Li Xiu could only watch it, but this was obviously impossible.

Seeing the emperor chuckling, the military officer who was accompanying him hesitated for a while, and still said:

"Your Majesty, the attack of the Later Jin Dynasty has been significantly weaker in the past few days. I finally thought that the Later Jin Dynasty either had too many casualties and had a sharp drop in morale, or was planning a new offensive."

"Which kind of possibility do you think is more likely?"

Li Xiu didn't care too much and asked casually.

"I will think that the latter should be more likely."

"The Later Jin Dynasty has no way out. If it stops, it will perish. No matter how low the morale is, it will never sit still and wait for death."

"The Later Jin will not compromise."

Li Xiu shook his head: "What I want is not to defeat them, but to destroy their country and their seeds. How could they sit and wait for death?"

"After the Yongwei Camp and the Yulin Guard retreat, let them change the front-line departments and let the front-line departments rest and rest."

Immediately, Li Xiu asked: "What month is it now?"

"Report to your Majesty, it's May 13th."

“May 13th…”

Li Xiu murmured softly, staring at the bloody battle on the front line, his eyes flashed slightly, and then said, "On May 18th, launch the general attack!"

"Before June, end this war and lead the way to Liaodong!"
