Nanming: I can build wonders

Chapter 41 Feng Xifan's Strategy
【Feng Mansion】

Feng Xifan, who failed in the Western Expedition, is graciously entertaining Liu Guoxuan.

Originally, Liu Guoxuan didn't want to come, because he had a lot of conflicts with Feng Xifan along the way of Xizheng.

Liu Guoxuan was most angry with him for giving up Haicheng.

At that time, under the leadership of Lin Sheng, Feng Guoxuan's You Wuwei defeated the admiral Wan Zhengse of the Fujian Navy of the Qing Dynasty in Haitan. Before he had time to be happy, he heard bad news.

Encouraged by Feng Xifan and Chen Shengwu, Zheng Jing decided to run back to Yizhou Island.

Hearing this news, Liu Guoxuan angrily reprimanded the two of them: "When You Wuwei Lin Sheng won such a big victory, you are all afraid of this. If You Wuwei is defeated by the Qing army, you will be scared out of your shit. ?”

Therefore, Ming Zheng gave up the decisive battle with the Qing army and fled back to Yizhou.

After fleeing, the soldiers under him completely lost confidence. Few of the tens of thousands of troops were killed by the Qing army. Most of them chose to defect because they could not see the hope of victory.

After returning to Yizhou Island, Feng Xifan's guard town and Feng Guoxuan's left and right Wuwei towns were established, and they all ran away, and they both became polished commanders.

This time, if Feng Xifan hadn't said that there was a way to get him soldiers, he wouldn't bother to come to see this birdman.

"Sightseeing (Liu Guoxuan's words), I know you have ambitions, but this time the defeat was too miserable, all our people ran away, without soldiers, we are nothing." Feng Xifan sighed.

After drinking the wine in the cup, Liu Guoxuan said: "I'm not here to listen to your complaints, so tell me, if you need me this time."

Feng Xifan raised his hand and asked his servants to quickly fill Liu Guoxuan's wine glass, and said, "Sightseeing, I know you really want to fill up Wuwei Town on the left and right, but I can't rush it, but I have a shortcut, do you want to?" Cooperate with me."

"There's no rush to cooperate. You can talk about your method first, and I'll think about it." Liu Guoxuan didn't immediately agree.

"The military power you want is far away in the sky and right in front of you. Isn't there still Yongwei Town?" Both Yongwei Town and Guard Town were newly established after Zheng Jing became King Yanping, and they are both elites of the Ming Zheng Group force.

Yongwei Town did not participate in this Western Expedition, and Zheng Jing was handed over to Chen Yonghua to guard the house, so he was fully staffed. After this Western Expedition was defeated, Chen Yonghua became the official with the most troops in the Ming Zheng Group.

Feng Xifan, Liu Guoxuan and Chen Yonghua are collectively known as the Three Heroes of Yizhou. The three are Wei, Shu and Wu in the Ming Zheng Group. They cooperate with each other and compete with each other. Then they just watch from the sidelines, they don't help each other, and they don't like to interfere in politics.

"Fufu is still here, how can Yongwei Town get me?" After Liu Guoxuan finished speaking, he drank another swig.

"Sightseeing is a matter of human effort. I have a way to make Fufu take the initiative to hand over Yongwei to you."

"Besides, have you heard about Zheng Kezang's guards?"

"Could it be that you want a child with a yellow mouth to dominate us?" Feng Xifan was worthy of studying power, and he hit the point.

Liu Guoxuan remained silent and continued to drink. Feng Xifan felt that there was something interesting and continued: "As for the cooperation, don't worry, you just wait to take over Yongwei Town."

"Okay, I'll listen to you this time." Liu Guoxuan walked forward and said.

After Liu Guoxuan was settled, Feng Xifan vigorously encouraged the defeated generals in Dongning to fight against the civilian officials who did not participate in the Western Expedition.

This time, Chen Yonghua was on the cusp, and he was very depressed because of this, because this time, he did not make any contribution to the West Expedition.

Not long after, Feng Xifan directly asked Chen Yonghua to visit Dongning Mansion together.

Chen Yonghua did not refuse the invitation of his colleagues, and was deliberately flattered by Feng Xifan along the way, talking and laughing.

When he reached the boulder in the mountain, Feng Xifan said: "Fufu, take a rest, my old bones are dying soon." After saying that, he sat down on the rock.

"Old bone, I think you are growing old and strong." Chen Yonghua did not agree with his statement.

"Fufu, you don't understand. After returning from the Western Expedition this time, I have no intention of continuing to lead the army. It's just a defeated general." Feng Xifan pretended to be sad.

"Why is this so? I didn't do anything in Dongning University." Affected by the recent rumors, Chen Yonghua was also discouraged.

"Fufu, I have a lot to do in this Western Expedition. I want to be an official. Wouldn't it be beautiful to retreat to the mountains and forests?" Feng Xifan looked at him poorly.

Hearing this, Chen Yonghua felt a lot of emotion. He also wanted to give up his power and enjoy a peaceful life. Now that Zheng Kezang's talent has shown, he can leave the political arena with confidence.

Therefore, under Feng Xifan's constant persuasion, Chen Yonghua also had the idea of ​​becoming an official, but he did not say that he would retire immediately, because he remembered Zheng Kezang's explanation to him half a year ago, and did not tell Feng Xifan his true thoughts.

Feng Xifan, who knew Chen Yonghua very well, was a little depressed. He failed to achieve his goal. The purpose of his trip was to trick Chen Yonghua into becoming an official together, trick him out of Yongwei Town, and then release him as a pigeon.

Unexpectedly, this Chen Yonghua was not fooled by him, but seeing that he also had the idea of ​​becoming an official, it can be regarded as a small half of success.

After returning from Feng Xifan's place, Chen Yonghua immediately went to Zheng Kezang's residence to discuss about becoming an official.

"Qinshe, I traveled with Feng Xifan today, and he said he wanted to become an official and enjoy a peaceful life, and I also meant that." Chen Yonghua expressed his heart, and he had nothing to hide from his son-in-law Zheng Kezang.

Upon hearing this, Zheng Kezang knew that Feng Xifan had started, and quickly persuaded him: "Father-in-law, don't believe Feng Xifan's nonsense, this person is good at playing tricks, and he will never let go of the power in his hands."

"As for the matter of becoming an official, father-in-law, there is no rush, unless he, Feng Xifan, becomes an official first, and you then, otherwise, once I lose my father-in-law's support in the court, I will become a single voice between Feng Xifan and Liu Guoxuan."

"What's more, father-in-law, do you still remember the dream I told you half a year ago?"

"In the dream, my grandfather said that Feng Xifan would kill you, let me warn you to be careful of this villain Feng Xifan." Zheng Kezang continued like a cannonball.

Chen Yonghua also fell into deep thought, and said after a long time: "Qinshe, I really didn't think carefully about this matter, and I almost fell for Feng Xifan's tricks."

"Father-in-law, you're right to think so. Feng Xifan is willing to serve as an official, so a sow can climb a tree." Seeing that the persuasion was successful, Zheng Kezang said with a smile.

"Besides, I heard that Feng Xifan has always been unwilling to do so, and wants his son-in-law, that is, my younger brother Zheng Keshuang, to inherit the position of King Yanping."

"A few days ago he invited Liu Guoxuan to a banquet." Zheng Kezang continued.

It turned out that in order to be on guard against Feng Xifan, he deliberately used money to buy people in Feng Xifan's house, and set up an intelligence network against Feng Xifan.

"Father-in-law, you should practice well in Yongwei Town. Your health is not in vain!" Zheng Kezang joked.

"Qinshe, then listen to you!"
