Chapter 140 News of Yongli!
Osado slapped the table angrily, and then spoke.

"Then my soldiers died in vain?"

"This is absolutely unacceptable to me!"

Governor Barossa spoke.

"Your Excellency Commander, it is absolutely impossible for me to allow you to do anything to Chinese civilians now!"

"I can't risk the lives of tens of thousands of Spaniards who have settled in Luzon, do you know what I mean?!"

"But after the war, I won't stop you from doing anything you want to do!"

Seeing that the governor had a tough attitude and had no intention of making concessions, Osado could only nod in agreement.

Barossa spoke.

"Now let's discuss the strategy. When the soldiers are ready, we will immediately dispatch troops to eliminate the rebels!"

Osado nodded in agreement.

On the same day, Manila Governor Barossa convened all the high-level Spaniards in Manila to discuss matters and discuss the issue of sending troops.

……

Weiyuan City!
On the day Weiyuan City was completed, the military government moved all the main government offices and official warehouses into Weiyuan City.

Start preparing for war!

On the day the five thousand Zheng Jun arrived in Luzon, they were warmly entertained by Zhu Hongyu with good wine and good meat.

The next day, Zhu Hongyu allocated 1 silver dollars to Ma Xin, the general of the Zheng army, and asked Ma Xin to use it to reward the soldiers and boost the morale of the army.

Zhu Hongyu once thought about sending money to Zheng Jun himself, but after thinking about it, he dismissed the idea.

Because it is not appropriate to do so!
Zhu Hongyu came forward to send money to Zheng Jun, what would Zheng Chenggong think?
Ma De, I kindly sent troops to help you, are you poaching my corner? !
Is this what people do?
On this day, Zhu Hongyu invited Ma Xin to a banquet as usual, and the two chatted happily at the wine table, persuading each other to drink.

Coupled with Zhu Hongyu's generous spending of money during this period, the relationship between the two has reached the point where they can be called brothers.

As the saying goes, when it comes to money, there are no friends who are difficult to get along with.

Just as the two were talking and laughing loudly, a secretary of the Guangfu Army came in from outside. The secretary clung to Zhu Hongyu's ear, and when he was about to speak, he was interrupted by Zhu Hongyu.

"Brother Ma is not an outsider, if you have anything to say, just say it!"

The secretary nodded, then spoke.

"General, Chen Yonghua, Mr. Chen is here again!"

"I'm waiting for your summons outside now!"

Zhu Hongyu looked pensive, why is this Chen Yonghua here again?
But he didn't hesitate, and said.

"Bring Mr. Chen in!"

Not long after, Chen Yonghua was brought before Zhu Hongyu and Ma Xin.

"Why are you here, sir? Is there something wrong?"

Zhu Hongyu asked directly.

Chen Yonghua took several breaths, then spoke.

"Meet the governor!"

"The students came here this time under the orders of Lord Guoxing!"

Hearing this, Ma Xin showed a hint of anxiety on his face, and asked.

"Did something happen over there, sir?"

Chen Yonghua shook his head at Ma Xin to indicate that it was okay, and then spoke to Zhu Hongyu.

"Guoxing Lord received news about the Son of Heaven. After the Battle of Mopan Mountain, the Son of Heaven was brought into Burma by Ma Jixiang and other officials, and has now been detained by Burmese Wang Ping Dali!"

"His Royal Highness King Jin is leading troops to attack Burma and wants to welcome the emperor back, but the soldiers are not used to the climate of Burma, and the battle situation is a bit unfavorable!"

"King Jin once again asked Lord Guoxing for help, and Lord Guoxing received the news that he is now preparing his troops for war and preparing to attack Burma."

Zhu Hongyu was shocked when he heard this, but it wasn't because of Yongli being detained.

He is fairly familiar with this period of history in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties. He was generally familiar with such things as Emperor Yongli's exile in Burma and Li Dingguo's expedition to Burma.

What really surprised him was Zheng Chenggong's reaction!
Hearing Li Dingguo's request for help, Zheng Chenggong sent troops to prepare for reinforcements without the slightest hesitation.

You know, the relationship between Zheng Chenggong and Li Dingguo is not good!

This matter is handled without the demeanor of a small expert in party struggle at all!

But just thinking about it for a while, Zhu Hongyu knew why.

Although Zheng Chenggong likes to engage in party disputes, that was before!
Now that the overall situation of the Anti-Qing Dynasty has been ruined, Zheng Chenggong should have realized that the party struggle is serious.

Everyone grows up!
Having experienced so many defeats and lost cities and lands due to party disputes and internal strife, Zheng Chenggong should learn a lesson no matter how stupid he is.

Besides, Zheng Chenggong, as a national hero, a figure remembered by history, how could he be stupid!
How could he not have grown up?
A typical example is that facing Zhu Hongyu's request for help this time, Zheng Chenggong quickly sent troops to reinforce him.

Although he asked for some benefits, he didn't engage in party struggles!
Then there was the Northern Expedition to Nanjing in 1659.

Around 1659, the main force of the Qing army gathered in the southwest to encircle and suppress the Ming army in the southwest. The Ming army was completely defeated and the war was tense.

Taking advantage of the emptiness of Manchu forces in the southeast, Zheng Chenggong launched the Northern Expedition to Nanjing, and almost captured the city of Nanjing.

Regardless of whether Zheng Chenggong launched the Northern Expedition to Nanjing with the intention of taking advantage of it or not.

In fact, Zheng Chenggong's Northern Expedition to Nanjing really relieved the pressure faced by the Ming army in the southwest, and gave Li Dingguo a little respite after the defeat of Mopanshan.

This point is irrefutable!
Some things can only be judged by deeds regardless of the heart. If the heart is talked about, there will be no good people in the world!
Zhu Hongyu speculated that the reason why Zheng Chenggong did not send troops to Burma in history was because Zheng Chenggong was besieging the city of Zeelandia when Li Dingguo was attacking Burma.

Even if you want reinforcements, you are afraid that you will be powerless!

However, due to the existence of the traverser Zhu Hongyu, Zheng Chenggong quickly conquered the city of Zeelandia under the arbitrariness of the butterfly wings.

Facing Li Dingguo's request for help, Zheng Chenggong would naturally not sit idly by.

Hearing this, Ma Xin had a surprised expression on his face, and asked.

"Have you heard from His Majesty?"

Chen Yonghua nodded and said.

"Yes!"

"Now His Majesty is detained by the King of Burma, and King Li Jin is trying to rescue him!"

Ma Xin gritted his teeth and said.

"Ma Jixiang should die, Pang Tianshou should die!"

"If it weren't for these two thieves who misled the country and coerced His Majesty to stay in Burma, how could it happen that His Majesty is being coerced by the Burmese king now?!"

But Zhu Hongyu couldn't help frowning, and asked tentatively.

"Master Guoxing really wants to kill Myanmar?"

Chen Yonghua nodded and said.

"Reporting to the Governor, Guo Xingye is already preparing the army for war!"

Zhu Hongyu spoke again.

"However, if you attack Burma by sea, you will have to go through Manjaga!"

Full of cards, both Malacca!

It used to be a vassal state of Ming Dynasty during the Yongle Dynasty, but now it has become a colony of Western countries.

Once occupied by Portugal, but now in the hands of the Dutch.

Zheng Chenggong had just voted for the Dutch on Dayuan Island and captured the city of Zeelandia. Looking back, they thought about Malacca, and the Dutch would never let them go.

"Master Guo Xing is ready to attack Batavia and Malacca? Will it be too hasty to launch troops now?"

Zhu Hongyu opened his mouth and asked.

Zheng Chenggong had just finished fighting the city of Zeelandia, and the decisive battle between Zhu Hongyu and the Spaniards was about to break out.

It would be too hasty to attack Batavia and Malacca now!

Chen Yonghua replied.

"The emperor's safety comes first, no matter how hasty the matter is, I, the courtiers, have to do my best!"
