Chapter 518 The Great Master Zhang Sanfeng
Chapter 517: The Great Master Zhang Sanfeng
Chen Liu, Temporary Imperial Palace of the Ming Dynasty.
“What exactly does Fang La want to do?”
“I asked him to rescue Hong Xiuquan from trouble, but he took the opportunity to occupy Hong Xiuquan’s territory?”
“Aren’t Fang La and Hong Xiuquan close friends?”
The reason why Fang La was like this was of course because Zhang Sheng rejected the Yin and Yang family, but Zhang Sheng had no idea about this.
Facing the angry Emperor Zhang Sheng, all the civil and military officials in the court were speechless. How could there be a personal relationship in the face of power?
The situation that the Ming Dynasty is currently facing is truly as bad as it gets, and Hong Xiuquan has been forced to break out to the south. What can we say now that things have happened?
Let Fang La spit out the territory he swallowed?
Everyone knows that this is impossible. Since Fang La dares to do it blatantly, he is certainly not afraid of falling out with the court.
As for sending troops to conquer, it is even more impossible. Not to mention whether it can send troops to conquer, even if it can be won and it is possible, it will be an advantage to the big man. The big man really cannot fight within the Ming Dynasty.
Fang La was also sure that the imperial court would not send troops to attack him, so he was so confident. After he succeeded, he still beat Hong Xiuquan, and Hong Xiuquan, the fool, actually believed that a big storm was coming.
"Your Majesty, the matter has come to an end, and there is no point in pursuing it further."
Feng Yunshan stood up at this time and said: "I think it is better to grant Hong Xiuquan's territory to Fang La. As for whether he can defend Fang La, it all depends on his own ability."
Among the officials of the Ming Dynasty, Feng Yunshan and Hong Xiuquan were the most dissatisfied, so they attacked Hong Xiuquan whenever they had the opportunity. However, this time it was rare that no one stood up to speak for Hong Xiuquan.
How could Hong Xiuquan, who had completely lost power, have to risk his life to protect Hong Xiuquan? Politics is so cruel.
After Guo Jia thought for a while, he stood up and said seriously: "Your Majesty, I agree that the land of Jianghuai has always been rich, and the Han Dynasty will never ignore it, so let Governor Fangla come to defend the court against the Han army in the south."
Guo Jia completely abandoned Fang La in one sentence. Fang La now occupies most of Xuzhou and Jianghuai. Such a large territory is enough to make anyone jealous.
So the first hurdle that Fang La will face in the future is not whether the Ming court will attack, but how to maintain the territory in his hands under the siege of the Han princes. Yuan Shu and Cao Cao are not easy to deal with.
Of course, Ming Dynasty will definitely not give any assistance to Fang La. This is the price for his disregard of the court's orders.
Zhang Sheng sighed and said helplessly: "That's all it can do. By the way, the situation in Yuzhou has been completely corrupted. Should we send reinforcements or not? If so, where will the army come from?"
The situation in Yanzhou has never been optimistic. The new recruits have not yet been trained and the number of veterans is too small. There is no rescue power at all!
“report…”
At this time, a stunning-looking waitress in black walked quickly to Zhang Sheng and handed over a scroll. This woman was Yu Shilan.
After Shi Lan and Xiang Yu separated, she felt that the world was vast but there was no place for her to live in peace. The only person who had the deepest friendship with her was her senior, who was also the former No. 1 Huang Dongfang Sheng, so she took the initiative to come to the Ming Dynasty to seek refuge. .
Shi Lan was shocked after meeting. Dongfang Sheng, who was also a woman, turned out to be Zhang Sheng and became the emperor of the Ming Dynasty.
This, this, serving as the emperor of a country as a woman? God, how is this possible?
Thinking about it, Shi Lan felt extremely desperate. Now that she knew such a shocking secret, could Zhang Sheng still let herself live?
Shi Lan thought she was dead, but Zhang Sheng not only did not kill Shi Lan, but instead asked Shi Lan to help manage the Taiping Guard.
Zhang Sheng naturally had deep meaning in doing this. She learned about the relationship between Xiang Yu and Shi Lan from Qin Hao. Xiang Yu could no longer wait for the throne of God, so it was better to reciprocate love and gain Xiang Yu's favor and loyalty. After opening the scroll, Zhang Sheng's expression suddenly became extremely exciting. Yang Dingtian, whom she regarded as a confidant, unexpectedly planned such a big incident without authorization.
Zhang Sheng does not doubt Yang Dingtian's loyalty. Perhaps Yang Dingtian also has his own concerns, but it is the crime of deceiving the emperor to disrespect the emperor.
In other words, Zhang Sheng never regarded himself as the emperor. If it were another emperor, Yang Dingtian would have died eight times.
"Forget it, for the sake of your loyalty, I will let you go this time. If you continue, hum..."
In fact, what was reported on the scroll was not complete. Regarding the kidnapping of Mrs. Qin Wen as a gift to Xiang Yu, Yang Dingtian did not write it in it.
If Zhang Sheng knew that Yang Dingtian was going to kidnap his future mother-in-law, his expression would definitely be quite wonderful, and he would probably want to kill him.
After reading it, Zhang Sheng said to the ministers with a happy face: "General Xiang Yu has appeared in Sizhou and rescued nearly 200,000 prisoners of war. If all these veterans return to the Ming Dynasty, the court will have sufficient supplies. Troops have gone to support various places.”
The Ming Empire that Zhang Sheng took over was a broken ship full of holes. Basically every site had problems, big and small. Now, although the small holes have been almost filled, the big holes have still not been filled.
For the Ming Dynasty, the biggest problem was that the army was full of new soldiers, so it could not even support various places.
If Xiang Yu can bring back these nearly 200,000 prisoners of war, then the Ming Dynasty can send reinforcements to support various places, so that the situation will definitely not be completely corrupted.
Of course, sending reinforcements, in addition to preventing the situation from getting completely out of control, is also a means of controlling the local area and can check and balance the power of the local governor.
Shi Lan’s face suddenly stiffened when he heard this.
Xiang Yu, are we going to meet you again? How should I face you?
After hearing this, Zhang Niujiao, Zhang Baiqi and other senior ministers all shouted: "God bless the Ming Dynasty, God bless your majesty."
Seeing the loyal ministers cheering, Zhang Sheng couldn't help but smile. Three months later, there was finally good news.
At this moment, a loud voice came.
“What’s going on today that makes you all so happy?”
When all the ministers saw the visitor, they immediately bowed and said, "See the Lord of the Land, General."
The person who came was none other than Zhang Junbao, who was implanted into Zhang Bao by the system, and was also Zhang Sanfeng, the great master of the generation.
With the compliments of all the ministers, Zhang Sanfeng walked down to the hall with an indifferent expression. Although his official position was that of a general, the veterans still used to call him "General Digong".
When Zhang Sheng saw that the person coming was Zhang Sanfeng, he immediately smiled and said, "Second uncle, you are here."
After Zhang Sanfeng performed the courtesy of a monarch and a minister, he also smiled and said: "I am here to wish your majesty a double happiness."
Zhang Sanfeng's feelings for Zhang Sheng were very complicated. He knew that he was not the material to be the emperor, but the huge Ming Empire actually needed a woman to support it. This made him always feel ashamed when facing Zhang Sheng.
