Chapter 41 Feng Xifan's Strategy
Chapter 41 Feng Xifan’s strategy
【Feng Mansion】
Feng Xifan, who had failed in the Western Expedition, was entertaining Liu Guoxuan attentively.
Originally, Liu Guoxuan did not want to come, because he had great conflicts with Feng Xifan during the Western Expedition. Feng Xifan had no strategy, only loved to play power, was short-sighted and profit-seeking, and was a great hindrance to the Western Expedition.
What Liu Guoxuan was most angry about was giving up on Haicheng.
At that time, Feng Guoxuan's right-wing guards, led by Lin Sheng, defeated Wan Zhengse, the admiral of the Fujian Navy of the Qing Dynasty, in Haitan. Before he could be happy, he heard bad news.
Encouraged by Feng Xifan and Chen Shengwu, Zheng Jing decided to run away and return to Yizhou Island.
Upon hearing the news, Liu Guoxuan angrily scolded the two of them: "You are all so scared when Youwuwei Lin Sheng won such a great victory. If Youwuwei was defeated by the Qing army, you would be scared to death."
?”
Therefore, Ming and Zheng gave up the decisive battle with the Qing army and fled back to Yizhou.
After this escape, the soldiers under their command completely lost confidence. Few of the tens of thousands of soldiers were killed by the Qing army. More often, they could not see the hope of victory and chose to defect, either to join the Qing Dynasty or to return to their fields and live in seclusion in the mountains and forests.
After returning to Yizhou Island, Feng Xifan's guard town and Feng Guoxuan's left and right military guards were established in the town. All the people were gone, and both of them became mere commanders.
"Qinshe, today I went on a tour with Feng Xifan. He said that he wanted to become an official and enjoy peace and happiness, and I also have the same intention." Chen Yonghua expressed his feelings directly. He had nothing to hide from his son-in-law Zheng Kezang.
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 six months ago and did not tell Feng Xifan his true thoughts.
Unexpectedly, Chen Yonghua was not fooled by him, but seeing that he also had the idea of becoming an official, it was half a success.
"Sightseeing (Liu Guoxuan's word), I know you have ambitions, but this defeat was too disastrous. All our people have fled. Without soldiers, we are nothing." Feng Xifan sighed.
Feng Xifan, Liu Guoxuan and Chen Yonghua are collectively known as the Three Heroes of Yizhou. The three of them are all Wei, Shu and Wu in the Mingzheng Group. They cooperate with each other and compete with each other. Generally speaking, Chen Yonghua does not like to fight for power, but Feng Xifan loves to compete with him. Liu Guoxuan
Then they just sit on the sidelines and watch, they don't help each other, and they don't like to get involved in politics.
"What's more, father-in-law, do you still remember the dream I told you half a year ago?"
After defeating Liu Guoxuan, Feng Xifan vigorously encouraged the defeated generals in Dongning to fight against the civilian officials who did not participate in the Western Expedition.
Feng Xifan raised his hand and asked his servants to quickly fill Liu Guoxuan's wine glass, and then said: "Guangxuan, I know you want to fill up the left and right Wuwei Town as soon as possible, but you can't rush it, but I have a shortcut, do you want to
Cooperate with me."
After returning from Feng Xifan, Chen Yonghua immediately went to Zheng Kezang's house to discuss the matter of becoming an official.
Yongwei Town did not participate in this Western Expedition, and Zheng Jing left it to Chen Yonghua to guard his home, so it had a complete staff. After the defeat of this Western Expedition, Chen Yonghua became the official with the most troops in the Ming and Zheng Groups.
Not long after, Feng Xifan directly made an appointment with Chen Yonghua to visit Dongning Mansion.
"The military power you want is far away and right in front of you. Isn't there Yongwei Town?" Yongwei Town and Weiwei Town were both newly established after Zheng Jing became King of Yanping. They are both elites of the Ming Zheng Group.
force.
"Furthermore, I heard that Feng Xifan has always been unwilling to give up. He wants his son-in-law, my brother Zheng Keshuang, to inherit the position of King Yanping."
Feng Xifan, who knew Chen Yonghua very well, was a little depressed because he had not achieved his goal. The purpose of his trip was to deceive Chen Yonghua into becoming an official together, defraud him of Yongwei Town, and then let him go.
"Fufu, you don't understand. After returning from the Western Expedition, I have no intention of continuing to lead the army. I am just a defeated general." Feng Xifan pretended to be sad.
"Okay, I'll listen to you this time." Liu Guoxuan walked forward.
When he reached the huge rock in the mountain, Feng Xifan said, "Fufu, let's take a rest. My old bones are going to die soon." After saying that, he sat down on the rock.
"Father-in-law, you are right to think so. If Feng Xifan is willing to become an official, a sow can climb a tree." Seeing that his advice was successful, Zheng Kezang said with a smile.
Chen Yonghua did not refuse the invitation of his colleagues. He was deliberately flattered by Feng Xifan and talked and laughed along the way.
"Don't you want a slutty brat to dominate us?" Feng Xifan is indeed a man of power, and his words hit the mark.
"Sightseeing depends on people. I have a way to make Fufu take the initiative to hand over Yongwei to you."
Hearing this, Chen Yonghua felt a lot of emotion. He also wanted to give up power and enjoy peace and happiness. Now that Zheng Kezang's talents have shown, he can leave the political arena with peace of mind.
As soon as he heard this, Zheng Kezang knew that Feng Xifan had started, and quickly advised him: "Father-in-law, don't believe Feng Xifan's lies. This man is good at power manipulation, 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 Feng Xifan becomes an official first and you then become an official, otherwise once I lose my father-in-law's help in the court, I will become the sole proprietor of Feng Xifan and Liu Guoxuan."
"Old Bones, I think you are getting stronger as time goes by." Chen Yonghua did not agree with his statement.
"Fufu is still here, how can Yongwei Town get my turn?" After Liu Guoxuan finished speaking, he took another swig.
"Why is this so? I have done nothing in the rear area in Dongning." Affected by the recent rumors, Chen Yonghua was also discouraged.
"Fufu, I have great ambitions in this Western Expedition. I want to pursue an official career. Wouldn't it be nice to live in seclusion among the mountains and forests?" Feng Xifan saw in his eyes.
This time, if Feng Xifan hadn't said that there was a way to get soldiers for him, he wouldn't have bothered to come over and see the birdman.
Chen Yonghua also fell into deep thought, and after a long time he said: "Qin She, I really didn't think about this matter well, and I almost fell into Feng Xifan's trap."
"My grandfather said in the dream that Feng Xifan would kill you. Let me warn you to be careful of this villain Feng Xifan." Zheng Kezang gushed like a cannonball.
"Besides, have you heard about Zheng Kezang's Guards?"
After draining the wine in his glass, Liu Guoxuan said, "I'm not here to listen to your complaints. Tell me, if you have anything to do with me this time."
"There is no rush in cooperation. You can tell me your method first and I will think about it." Liu Guoxuan did not agree immediately.
At this time, Chen Yonghua was at the forefront of the storm, and he was also very depressed because this time, he did not contribute to the Western Expedition.
Liu Guoxuan remained silent and continued to drink. Feng Xifan thought there was something interesting and continued: "As for cooperation, don't worry, just wait and take over Yongwei Town."
"He even hosted a banquet for Liu Guoxuan a few days ago," Zheng Kezang continued.
It turned out that in order to be wary of Feng Xifan, he specially used money to bribe people in Feng Xifan's house and set up an intelligence network against Feng Xifan.
"Father-in-law, you should train hard to defend the town bravely. Your good health cannot be wasted!" Zheng Kezang joked.
"Qinshe, then I will listen to you!"
