Zhao Ming was shocked when he heard this.

I hurriedly took the beating newspaper, opened it and watched, and just glanced at it, my face suddenly sank.

"Your Highness, what happened in Jiangbei?" Gu Yanwu asked carefully.

Zhao Ming handed him the beating report, too lazy to speak. He was so tired.

Gu Yanwu took it to watch, with an incredible expression on his face, and he shook the memorial and said, "The King of Lu actually rebelled!"

Zhu Yihai himself said that he had raised an army to calm the crisis.

Ajige had just calmed down the crisis and successfully ascended the throne as emperor. I wonder if it stimulated Zhu Yihai and made him determined to raise an army to seize the throne.

Jiangbei reported urgently that Zhu Yihai did not accept Zhao Ming's suggestion to attack Ajige. Instead, he took advantage of Ajige's heading north and Jiangbei's pressure was greatly reduced, and he drew elite troops from the Huaijiang River to gather 100,000 troops and rushed towards Nanjing.

This time, the world is in chaos.

Zhao Ming covered his face with both hands and said for a while: "Come on! Don't bother me!"

Zhao Ming's original intention was that he restrained himself in Hebei and created opportunities for the southern line.

Now that Zhu Yihai is not coming, it is difficult for Zhejiang Wu Yue army to achieve the goal, so the plan to attack from the south will definitely be ruined.

This time, for the Ming Dynasty, was an excellent opportunity to attack the Qing Dynasty. If it was fought well, it would be possible to recover Jiangbei Prefecture and push the front line of the Huaihe River. There would be no problem, and it would be even possible to conquer Xuzhou and seize Shandong.

In this way, the army can start the battle to recover Beijing after a year or two, and the Qing Dynasty is not far from the end.

Now, at such a critical moment, Zhu Yihai turned against him, which really made Zhao Ming feel tired.

This is not the first time. When Jiangbei was defeated and later Zhao Ming went to Nanyang, all of them were defeated due to internal problems, which led to Zhao Ming's failure or giving up halfway.

Including this time, there are only three things, Zhao Ming is really tired.

In fact, after Zhu Yihai returned to Jiangbei, Zhao Ming knew that Zhu Yihai had a rebellious intention and was preparing for seizing the throne.

At the beginning, Zhu Yihai asked Zhao Ming to provide the skills and craftsmen to make flowering bullets, and to return the Jiangbei army, so he wanted to raise an army.

Zhao Ming kept suppressing the Jiangbei army, and wanted to delay Zhu Yihai's rebellion, but Zhu Yihai still couldn't wait and rebel in advance.

Now that Zhu Yihai and Zhu Youjian are in war, Zhao Ming’s 20,000 people can’t make a big wave in Hebei, he can only give up this opportunity, giving Ajige the opportunity to regroup.

Xie Qian couldn't help but say annoyed: "At such a critical moment, how could King Lu ignore the overall situation so much!"

After more than ten years of resistance to the Qing Dynasty, Xie Qian was very angry after finally waiting for such an opportunity, but no one cooperated.

Zhao Ming had a calm face and didn't say anything else. First, the matter has come to this point, and second, he actually understood Zhu Yihai's decision and had known that Zhu Yihai would rebel.

When the Qing army was in great power, Zhu Youjian was a puppet in Fujian. It was Zhu Yihai who carried the banner of anti-Qing, fought bloody battles in Zhejiang, defeated the Qing army several times, reversed the trend, and then recovered Nanjing. This was also his contribution.

Regarding his efforts and achievements to the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yihai believed that he was far more than Zhu Youjian.

Zhu Youjian's throne should have been Zhu Yihai. In order to unify the Qing Dynasty, Zhu Yihai made concessions and recognized Zhu Youjian as the emperor, while he took a step back and served as the crown prince.

As the crown prince, he was already sacrificed and concession, but Zhu Youjian took advantage of the benefits and stole his achievements. Not only did he not be grateful, he designed to frame him, abolish his position as the crown prince, and kill so many of his confidants who followed him. No one would just let it go.

Most people are bullied like this and will have to splatter blood for five steps, let alone Zhu Yihai?

After escaping from Nanjing, Zhu Yihai was full of anger, and Wu Zhaosheng and other generals hated Zhu Youjian and Emperor Longwu even more.

The reason why Zhu Yihai wanted to rebel was planted as early as when Zhu Youjian abolished the crown prince.

After Zhu Yihai was deposed, he became rebellious, but he was trapped in a corner of the north of the Yangtze River and sandwiched between the Qing Dynasty and the Longwu court. His normal military strength was restrained by two lines and he had no chance at all.

This time, Ajige led Xuzhou troops to the north, so that Zhu Yihai did not need much force to defend against the Qing Dynasty. He could draw the main force and attack Nanjing in one go.

Now Zhu Yihai has weak power. Only by taking advantage of the attention of all forces and not on him, he will have a chance to seize Nanjing and ascend the throne as emperor with thunder.

Otherwise, he would not be able to succeed if other forces intervene.

Originally, after Zhao Ming, Zhu Yihai would wait until he returned the Jiangbei troops to take action, but Zhu Yihai would suddenly take action.

It doesn't matter if he is in the army, but Zhao Ming's plan has been ruined again.

Zhao Ming waved his hand and sighed, "Oh, you still need to settle the internal affairs when fighting against foreign countries!"

Although Zhao Ming understood why Zhu Yihai did such a move, he could not continue to tolerate such a destruction of his plan happening again.

From the lessons learned from the Chongzhen Dynasty to the several losses that Zhao Ming suffered, history told Zhao Ming that Zhao Ming also realized that internal unstable and unification would be difficult to solve external affairs.

To manage the family, govern the country and pacify the world, you must first have peace of your own family before you can have the next thing.

Zhao Ming's eyes became firm. This time Zhu Yihai's uprising may be his opportunity to seize power and achieve internal unity.

When Gu Yanwu heard Zhao Ming's words, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and said, "What does your highness mean?"

Zhao Ming did not say much. This would seem to have been planned for a long time after saying it.

Zhao Ming waved his hand and said in a deep voice: "Mr. Gu, transfer more ships and the army evacuated as soon as possible."

Since Zhu Yihai raised an army to attack Nanjing, Zhao Ming must return to Jiangdong as soon as possible.

Zhu Yihai's power is now far weaker than the Longwu court. Even if he achieves certain results, it is difficult to completely defeat Longwu's power under the sudden attack.

Zhao Ming estimated that the situation in the Ming Dynasty would be very likely to be split into two courts like the Qing Dynasty and then attack each other.

In this way, Zhao Ming planned to split the Qing Dynasty and create opportunities that were not only wasted, but also possible to take advantage of the Qing Dynasty.

Zhao Ming must rush back to Jiangdong, gather elite troops, solve Zhu Yihai and Zhu Youjian, and take this opportunity to seize the Ming Dynasty's regime, control the Ming Dynasty, and launch another northern expedition.

Due to the situation, Zhao Ming can only take the route of stabilizing the country before fighting against foreign countries.

When Gu Yanwu heard the words, he understood what Zhao Ming meant, and he couldn't help but feel a little excited. After the Qing Dynasty split, it would be tomorrow's yellow flowers and sooner or later it was destroyed by the Wu Yue Kingdom. Zhao Ming had to solve the internal problems of the Ming Dynasty first, unify the Ming Dynasty, and seize power, which may not be a bad thing.

"Don't worry, your highness, I'll make arrangements!" Gu Yanwu immediately saluted, but then said: "It takes time to mobilize the ships, and the people and materials have not yet been shipped, and it may take a long time."
