Chapter 496

"He also wants to be king? Why? The emperor won't easily promise him." Mu ang didn't care when he heard this. The reason why the Mu family is so powerful now is that Mu bin has been granted the king, but if anyone can be granted the king, the title of the Lord is no longer important and will not bring so much glory to the family.

In Mu Ang's eyes, naturally there are fewer and fewer kings in the world. In this way, the identity of the Lord will be more important. When talking, he will have more confidence.

Not only did Mu ang think like this, but mu bin also held such an idea and said, "if you want to be a king, I'm afraid it won't be so easy. Will the emperor easily promise him?"

"Of course not." Wang Ji answered in a very positive tone. Then he seemed afraid that the two people would not believe it, and then continued: "Wang Ye, general mu, think about it. Why the Mu family can be crowned king? That's because you have guarded the southwest for Daming for generations, and your influence is only in this place. Even if you are crowned king, the emperor will not be afraid. But the loyal and courageous Duke is different. He is young, and his influence exists not only in the Southern Ming Dynasty, but also in the northern Ming Dynasty. If you give him this Is it not a pleasure for those who have been granted the king? More importantly, once there is any war in the future, how should the loyal and courageous public reward him for his meritorious service? Isn't the king the emperor? "

"This... Does loyal and brave Lord still have the heart of disobedience?" hearing this, Wang mubin's face changed again and again.

"No one knows whether there is a sense of disobedience. But once there is a little possibility, we must be on guard. Presumably, Emperor Yingzong must consider more and more than us on this point. That's why I said it's difficult for him to be a king." Wang Ji's understanding of Yang Chendong is also limited, and some things naturally dare not judge rashly. However, with his understanding of Zhuqi Town, watching him so wary of Yang Chendong, this inference is extremely reasonable.

After saying so much, mubin and Muang finally understood. The reason why Yang Chendong was oppressing Jiaozhi country was to take the opportunity to show his military strength and ask Zhu Qi town for benefits. Next, it should be up to the emperor to make a decision.

After thinking about this, Mu ang suddenly smiled, "if you want to say that the loyal and brave public took a circuitous route for his name. I'm afraid he paid a lot for entering Jiaozhi army this time in order to achieve this goal."

It's no wonder Mu ang said so. He also knows the combat power of Jiaozhi army. Although it's a little worse than Mu's army, it's not much. Mercenaries should kill thousands of enemies and lose 800 themselves. The price they pay is nothing more than for a throne, and they may not get it. In this way, it doesn't mean they don't pay for it okay?

But anyway, this matter has nothing to do with the Mu family army. They are happy to see its success, whether it is the heavy losses of Jiaozhi army or the scars of mercenaries.

It seems that the matter has been sorted out, and everyone's previous worries have disappeared. This has nothing to do with the Mu family army. Moreover, no matter how powerful the mercenaries are, they can't spare no effort to find trouble with the Mu family army after winning the Jiaozhi army. Let's not say that there are no contradictions before, but what's the advantage of fighting with the Mu family army?

Who is willing to do something that is not good?

After knowing that the development of the war had nothing to do with himself, mubin's face was completely relaxed, "well, send someone to continue staring at it. As for what will develop? Someone must have a bigger headache than us."

Mubin is right. The king of Min is the same as him. Now they are thinking of attacking the whole territory of Guangdong with all their strength. Because during this time, they sent troops everywhere and captured many cities in Guangxi that had not been recovered before. Now the whole Guangxi is in their hands, which makes them naturally focus on the territory of Guangdong, Especially Guangzhou government, an important place.

When mubin said that some people would have more headaches, he naturally referred to the Nanming court. Kuang ye, the Minister of the Ministry of war who first received the news, was really in a good mood at this moment.

Since Yang Chendong left Gaozhou Prefecture and went straight to Liangshan, he also evacuated Gaozhou Prefecture with general Guan Ying, Ma Wei and Yu Guang and took a detour to Guangzhou Prefecture.

With the support of the imperial court, 10000 Nanming soldiers were soon focused in Guangzhou government, which had a certain military strength.

But at this time, all kinds of news came from the front, both good and bad.

The so-called bad, of course, is that under the joint efforts of the king of min and the Miao army, they attacked everywhere, and finally occupied the whole territory of Guangxi, so that the power of the king of Min has been further developed. There has even been news that they are gathering troops. I'm afraid the next target is their Guangzhou government. After all, as long as they occupy here, the whole territory of Guangdong will fall into the hands of the other party, It's not far away.

Therefore, in addition to constantly strengthening urban defense and recruiting troops on the spot, Kuang Ye constantly reported urgent documents to Kyoto and Nanjing and asked for more support from the imperial court.

In addition to the bad news, there was also good news. It was like the loyal and courageous public who had just received killed in Jiaozhi with mercenaries. They not only passed through the rainforest of Langshan Mountain with complex terrain, but also captured the two cities of Quyi and Beidai at Jiaozhi.

Nanming spy, who is installed in Jiaozhi, said that Jiaozhi is too busy now.

As soon as the news came into Kuang Ye's hands, he almost jumped up with joy. Jiaozhi is entangled. He will be unable to consider the matter of soldiers leaving Nanming. Doesn't this make them lose a big opponent?

Kuang Ye is not only old, but also old-fashioned. In his opinion, the king of Min is also surnamed Zhu. He has ancestral blood. All the fights with the emperor belong to the Zhu family. What's the matter? The world is still Zhu's and can't be cheap. Outsiders are not.

"Yes, yes, the loyal and brave Lord is really powerful, and the mercenaries don't live up to their expectations." with the news just came, Kuang ye, who hasn't seen a smile for a long time, was rare. He drank three big cups in the temporary house, and even called the student Guan Ying to drink with him.

Guan Ying still doesn't understand Kuang Ye's happiness. Seeing that the drinking stopped, he asked carefully, "teacher, this is the victory of Zhongdan Gong. Why are you so happy?"

"Why can't you be happy?" Kuang ye, who was in a good mood at this moment, also decided to teach himself a good student, so he asked aloud, "tell me, who will win the final victory when the mercenaries brought by Zhongdan Gong and the powerful Jiaozhi army fight together?"

"Well..." Guan Ying shook his head, "it is unrealistic to say that mercenaries are really powerful, especially the continuous fire guns in their hands. No one can be an enemy with them. But... But they have too few troops in the end. It is still possible to win some battles, but it is unrealistic to say that they can really destroy all Jiaozhi troops."

"That's right." Kuang Ye nodded with satisfaction after hearing the speech, and then said: "according to what you said, isn't it that mercenaries will fight with Jiaozhi army and lose both? If it's such a result, it's only good for me, not bad."

"Ah!" Guan Ying understood. Then he said tentatively, "the teacher means that this is a struggle between two tigers, there will be death and injury. Can't the one who wins actually get any benefit?"

"Exactly." Kuang Ye stroked his beard, "In fact, I admire a loyal and courageous man very much. I'm afraid there won't be a hero like him for hundreds of years. Even when Taizu was his age, he was far inferior. If such a person was born in troubled times, he would probably create a new country. I just hate his untimely life. Now I know that although there are wars, but the bottom is The son is still good. Most people have clothes and food to live and work in peace and contentment. Under such an environment, it is obviously impossible to want any big construction. "

On one side, Guan Ying couldn't stop and recognized the teacher's analysis.

Kuang Ye seemed to have no reason, but he continued: "I admire Zhongdan, but I really fear him. Because young people sometimes do things impulsively and even don't play cards according to common sense. I'm really worried that he will have any other thoughts because of holding a strong army. So I advised the Emperor to use him and guard against him."

"Yes, yes, such people should be on guard." Guan Ying also agrees with this. After all, the word "high praise over the Lord" is not only available now. History has proved that once the minister's credit is too great, there are really many rebellions.

"That's why I'm so happy when I see this news. Just as you said, although mercenaries are powerful, they are too few and have too bad information. It's impossible to really do anything about the cross toe. The best result is that both lose and hurt. In this way, they will naturally hurt a lot. The imperial court can do it without a single soldier Isn't it a good thing to make the two people who are afraid of being inseparable and even seriously injured? It's not worth drinking and celebrating for the teacher? "

Kuang Ye finally understood what he said. All this listened to Guan Ying's ears and made him nod. "The teacher analyzed it very well and the students learned."
