Chapter 86
Looking at the man in green who was calmly drinking tea in front of him, Zhu Yijiong cleared his throat and asked confirmingly: "Is this Sir Wu Sidao?"

"I don't dare to be a gentleman who oversees the country. The common people are none other than Wu Sidao." Wu Sidao immediately put down the tea cup in his hand, stood up and held his hands in his hands.

He is not Zhu Yijiong's minister, but he does not need to and should not bow to him.

After receiving an affirmative answer, Zhu Yijiong suddenly felt a sense of strangeness in his heart. In the various TV series he had watched when he was a child, Wu Sidao, a famous counselor in the Yongzheng Dynasty who had countless plans, was actually standing in front of him alive.

Zhu Yijiong was surprised and took a closer look. Wu Sidao was wearing a Qing Dynasty robe when he arrived. His appearance seemed to fit the stereotype of a weak scholar in this era.

Oh, by the way, Wu Sidao has never left Fujian, so his hair is naturally shaved.

At this time, he came to the front hall, took off his hat, and his bald head was quite eye-catching.

Speaking of which, when he first heard the news, Zhu Yijiong was still a little unbelievable.

If this was not reported to the cabinet, it was said that a man named Wu Sidao, who had served as an aide to the puppet governor of the Qing Dynasty, Master Shaoxing, wanted to see the governor and asked whether he wanted to announce his appearance.

Yes, this was Wu Sidao's method, it was simple and straightforward, he went directly to the cabinet office to reveal his identity.

As for the evidence, when he worked for Manbao as an aide, he also asked for Manbao's handwriting and sealed documents.

Regardless of whether the cabinet recognizes it or not, as soon as it is taken out, it will definitely attract attention, and someone who recognizes it will come to confirm it later.

Fortunately, Wu Sidao was lucky. As the former prefect of Taiwan in the Qing Dynasty, Wang Li may have never seen the Manchu and Bao manuscripts, but he would certainly recognize the governor's seal.

As a result, the memorial was carried out decisively, and it only took one letter of memorial, and at worst, there would be no approval from the supervising country.

"No courtesy! Mr. Wu has served as a staff member of the puppet governor of the Qing Dynasty. Are you trying to find a job in the Ming Dynasty?" Zhu Yijiong calmed down, raised his hand, and asked in a nonchalant manner.

Although I knew that Wu Sidao was very powerful in history, he was still young at this time, and the most important thing for a king is not to lose control in front of his subjects and the people.

To be honest, when Zhu Yijiong read those novels in his previous life, he sometimes found them funny.

You are a king and protagonist. When you hear that a famous historical general has come to seek refuge, you immediately go up and lick him desperately, without any regard for the background of the times or your own identity.

Wu Sidao quickly entered the role and said: "Back to the prison country, the common people here just want to ask, how does the prison country view the general trend of the world?"

Zhu Yijiong was startled: "The general trend of the world?"

Good guy, is this a direct speed match?
But isn’t Wu Sidao a die-hard Yongzheng?

When will the Qing Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty be restored?

It’s not written in the history books!

Surprised, Zhu Yijiong was no longer in a daze, and continued following the words: "What do you want to teach me, sir?"

Wu Sidao said: "The common people do not dare to supervise the country's civil and military strategies. Why do they need others to teach them?"

These words are indeed sincere. Judging from Zhu Yijiong's current performance, although there is an element of luck in it, I think the king's theory is already quite good.

Although Wu Sidao was indeed resourceful and resourceful, and even considered to have many strategies, when it came to marching and fighting, it could only be said that the seven orifices were connected to the six.

After all, I was a serious scholar in the imperial examination before, even though I never passed the exam in my life...

Zhu Yijiong returned to his normal attitude and asked: "What does Mr. Wu mean?"

When Wu Sidao saw this, he was not unhappy at all. Instead, he thought it was quite normal. He smiled slightly and immediately began to explain: "What the grassroots people have seen along the way from Fuzhou is that the supervisor first used the braid-cutting order to consolidate the hearts and minds of the people in Fujian, and then used The New Deal and Tax Law released people's power. Finally, they used this to recruit troops and train the army. With all these things, are the supervisors planning to launch a large-scale military campaign against Zhejiang next?"

"...Why did you say this, sir?" Zhu Yijiong was stunned for a moment, then immediately denied it.

The Ming army's combat deployment and military operations are top secret and must not be told to others.

Otherwise, not to mention the chaos that may be caused, such as hoarding goods and merchants making war fortune.

Moreover, if the Qing court knew about it in advance, it would also be a troublesome matter.

Wu Sidao said: "Your Majesty, there is no need to worry, the common people can only make bold guesses. Moreover, if the prison country really has the ambition of the world, Zhejiang must be conquered. If there is no ambition of the world... Haha." Zhu Yijiong pondered for a moment, nodded and said : "What Mr. Wu said is true. Since we are rebelling against the Qing Dynasty and restoring the Ming Dynasty, how can we retreat?"

This is acquiescence. The Ming Dynasty is now entirely under Fujian. If it wants to develop, there are only two ways, either to go north to Zhejiang or south to Guangdong and Guangxi.

Going south seemed good, as the Guangdong and Guangxi areas were densely populated and coastal ports, but in fact, due to the maritime ban at this time, the maritime trade of Guangdong and Guangxi was not as developed as it would be later.

The Ming army's capture of Guangdong and Guangxi was nothing more than gaining two coastal provinces, which had little actual strategic significance. On the contrary, there was a risk of being completely trapped.Once trapped to death, Ming's future can be imagined.

In comparison, the advantages of going north are obvious, as Zhejiang is a wealthy town in the southeast.If the Ming army captured this place, it would not only gain a large amount of wealth and population, but also severely damage the central finance of the Qing court.

More importantly, if Zhejiang is lost, the entire Jiangsu, and even Nanjing (Jianning Prefecture) will be undefendable.If Nanjing fell, not only would political and public opinion be a huge blow to the Qing court, but the Ming Dynasty could also rely on the danger of the Yangtze River. Not to mention aspiration to dominate the world, at least it could rule across the river and calmly deal with the Qing court, encroaching step by step.

Zhu Yijiong naturally doesn’t need to say much about how to choose.

"If that's the case, why hasn't the Supervisory State sent troops yet? By waiting like this, are you waiting to die?" Wu Sidao nodded, and then said something shocking.

Zhu Yijiong was stunned for a moment, unable to keep up with the rhythm, and asked: "How do you say this?"

Wu Sidao looked serious and said: "The ordinary people dare to say something that is not acceptable. The prison country now only has one province. To fight against the Qing government is like a fly shaking a tree. If the Qing government does not respond now, it will be under its weakness." Give him a few more knives. When he comes to his senses and suppresses him with the force of thunder, what will the prison country do to resist it?"

"Furthermore, although the order of the prisoner to cut off people's braids has made people fall in love with them, there are still hidden dangers. It is difficult for anyone to hold a grudge among them. If this public support is not used in time, how will the prisoner deal with itself once the people's support is gone?" ?”

"Furthermore, now that the Jianguo has a province, it has been slow to invade the outside world. As time goes by, even if the Jianguo itself can restrain it, how can the civil servants and generals under the Jianguo restrain themselves from breeding?"

"With all this, what else is it but waiting to die?"

Wu Sidao's long speech made Zhu Yijiong confused.

Good guy, it's true. Zhu Yijiong thought before that he was developing too fast, so he thought of taking a moment to slow down and develop Fujian into the base of kings and hegemons.

But he ignored one thing: was he rebelling, or was he rebelling under the banner of opposing the Qing Dynasty and restoring the Ming Dynasty?

Moreover, now he is no longer trapped in Taiwan Island, but even Fujian has fallen into his hands.

Unless the Qing court is in immediate internal chaos, it is impossible to ignore it anymore. If the Qing court does not have time to react, seize the time to seize more territory, especially the southeastern wealth town.

Give the already decadent Qing dynasty another severe blow, and when people react, it will be hard to say whether Fujian can be preserved, let alone expand externally.

Although this statement may not sound good, it is indeed true.

"Mr. Wu is worthy of being the staff of the puppet governor of the Qing Dynasty. He is really full of strategies. In this case, I hope that Mr. Wu can stay in the Ming Dynasty and contribute to the recovery of the Han Dynasty." Zhu Yijiong was unceremonious, Everyone has already given the meeting gift, so all that's left is for him to recruit.

Wu Sidao was also unambiguous. He immediately stood up and came out of the queue, stretched out his hand to support his lame leg, and then knelt down and bowed to the ground: "Your Majesty, Wu Sidao, kowtows to His Highness the Ming Dynasty Supervisor, long live the Supervisor!"

This is to directly determine the status of monarch and minister.

Zhu Yijiong raised his empty hand and said warmly: "Sir, no courtesy! I can only have Mr. Wu to help me. I am like a fish in water!"

This compliment, not to mention exaggerated, directly copied Liu Bei's mantra.

Wu Sidao heard it, but didn't care.

When Wu Sidao came to apply, Zhu Yijiong didn't expect it at all, so he didn't think about what position to give him for a while.Fortunately, he was given a secretariat position first.

Accumulate your qualifications first, and then get promoted later.

After all, he knew Wu Sidao was talented, but others didn’t!

You have to consider the thoughts of the courtiers below.
