Zhu Cilang was originally in Jingdezhen, Jiangxi, but the news that the bandits and the army were going to attack Jinling was spreading harder day by day, and in the end he led Sun Yingyuan back to Nanjing to take charge.

After all, Nanjing is the capital of the Ming Dynasty and cannot be missed.

In contact with Zhang Mingwei, when he knew that Zhang Mingwei's army had arrived on the other side, Zhu Cilang, who had not seen him for half a year, actually ran out of Nanjing and went directly to the other side to find Zhang Mingwei.

Because Zhang Mingwei told him that the situation was tense, he would not be able to go to Nanjing.

This situation surprised many people, especially those around Zhu Cixuan.

You know, this is the crown prince and will be the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty in the future.

No matter how powerful Duke Xingguo is now, he is just a minister. He did not go to Nanjing to pay homage to Zhu Cilang, saying that the situation was tense, which is actually reasonable.

However, when Zhu Cilang, as the prince, heard the news, he took the initiative to talk about Zhu Cilang, which was very unreasonable.

It’s not that Zhu Cilang was afraid of this Duke Xingguo, they could see this.

After being by the prince for a long time, every time I heard the prince mention Duke Xingguo, he was always flirting with an admiration on his face. He was definitely not afraid of Duke Xingguo. It was more like Zhu Cilang admired Duke Xingguo, which was a bit like the feeling of ordinary people pursuing famous scholars.

Sure enough, when they followed His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to meet Duke Xingguo who heard the sound and rushed to the river to greet him, they saw Zhu Cilang jogging over excitedly and shouted excitedly: "Sir, we have been missing for a long time!"

"Haha, I haven't seen each other for only half a year, right?" Zhang Mingwei said with a smile. Seeing Zhu Cilang's happy look, he changed his mouth and said, "It's really a long time since I said it!"

When Zhu Cixuan, who was happy, saw Zhu Mai beside Zhang Mingwei, he smiled and said hello: "My sister, you have been by your husband, are you happy and interesting?"

"Of course!" Zhu Mai immediately raised her head and said proudly.

When the people on both sides saw this, they were all stunned, but they came back to their senses and greeted each other quickly.

On the one hand, he was busy saying, "I have met His Highness the Crown Prince!"

On the other side, he said, "I have met Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Duke!"

After the meeting, Zhu Ciying originally wanted to pull Zhang Mingwei, and wanted to let Zhang Mingwei talk about so many interesting things that happened in the north. However, he found that Zhang Mingwei turned his gaze behind him.

Knowing that state affairs are the most important, he suppressed his temperament and went to chat with his sister. After all, Zhu Mai knew about these things.

When the two of them walked towards the camp, Zhang Mingwei nodded to his acquaintance Li Ruolian, and then looked at the military general Sun Yingyuan who had already known when he introduced himself just now.

If the original historical development was developed, this famous general in the late Ming Dynasty had already died in battle. However, the result has been changed because of his time travel. Zhang Mingwei was still very satisfied with this and said to him: "The matter of protecting the prince is very important, thank you for your hard work!"

He still admires such a Ming general.

Sun Yingyuan did not expect that Duke Xingguo was so polite, which was beyond his expectations. He quickly became modest and said that it was his duty.

In fact, in his heart, he still wanted to fight the thief and make military achievements. After all, Zhou Yuji, who had not had the military position in the Yongwei Camp before, was not as high as him, but now he is a loyal uncle, surpassing him.

But looking back, becoming the prince's confidant is also a favorable thing in the future, which makes him feel a little bit better. However, as a general, especially a famous general, he is a little disappointed to be a guard.

After greeting him, Zhou Yuji happily stepped forward and answered Sun Yingyuan, and then followed the prince and princess behind him.

At this moment, Zhang Mingwei finally turned to look at a young man with excitement and said to him: "Zheng Fusong, right? I've heard of you!"

If Zheng Fusong followed the original historical development, he would go to Nanjing next year to follow Qian Qianyi, and changed his name from Qian Qianyi to Zheng Sen; later supported Emperor Longwu and was named Zhu Chenggong by Emperor Longwu, which was also the origin of his ultimate name.

But now he is only eighteen years old and is a scholar. When he was studying in Fujian, he was named by the crown prince Zhu Cilang for Zhang Mingwei's advice and kept working with the crown prince.

In this way, he certainly knew the deeds of Duke Xingguo.

At this time, when he heard Duke Xingguo talking to him, he immediately felt honored and hurriedly stepped forward to greet him.

The main purpose of Zhang Mingwei staying was to talk to him, so he signaled Zheng Fusong to go with him.

"If there is no peace today, I believe you can see it." Zhang Mingwei said, turning his head and looking behind him half a step, Zheng Fusong respectfully said: "Have you ever thought about joining the army and opening up peace for the world?"

Zheng Fusong is a scholar, and it is obvious that he wants to take the civil service route.

However, in the original history, he eventually embarked on the route of leading troops to fight. It was a pity that his talent was average. Otherwise, if the battle to liberation Nanjing was successful, the situation in the late Ming Dynasty would have been rewritten.

When he heard this, he was a little surprised and came to his senses. He naturally raised his chest and said, "Students naturally wish for peace in the world. I wish for my pen and joining the army, but... just..."

Young people are really passionate, and the allusion of Ban Chao's pen to join the army was naturally very inspiring to scholars. Therefore, Zheng Fusong was certainly willing, but later, he hesitated and became stuttering.

When Zhang Mingwei heard this, he stopped and turned to look at him, with his eyes showing encouragement and said to him: "It's just something, even if it's all!"

Hearing this, Zheng Fusong did not hesitate anymore and replied to Zhang Mingwei: "It's just a fight. As a soldier of the official army, I'm afraid my family won't agree!"

After hearing this, Zhang Mingwei nodded. Judging from his life experience, this is also easy to understand.

Therefore, he looked at Zheng Fusong and said, "The person I recommend will eventually hold an important position. I believe you have heard of it? Your talent is to fight against the navy. To be honest, there are still too few talented people in my Ming army who can fight against the navy. You are one of the navy talents I value!"

When Zheng Fusong heard this, he was quite surprised.

In fact, he thought that although his father was Zheng Zhilong, he did not understand the navy war. At this time, he was still devoted to studying and taking the civil service.

He didn't expect that Duke Xingguo would say such words. He could hear that he wanted to join the army and the Duke Xingguo recommended him to lead the Ming Navy. And it would be revealed from the words that he would start very well.

Of course this made him very happy, but he was also confused. He immediately replied to Zhang Mingwei: "Duke Liao Zan. Although it was the wish of the students to join the army, if it was a navy, how could he be at peace in the world? The thieves were in chaos, but there was no navy!"

Speaking of this, Zheng Fusong immediately remembered the recent rumors and hurriedly said: "Although the thieves do have ships, their main force is still infantry and cavalry, just that little ship, which may not be able to make a climate!"

The implication is that the navy cannot use it at all, and it is useless!

Hearing this, Zhang Mingwei smiled and shook his head, and said to him decisively: "You are wrong. The importance of the Ming Navy is far more important than you imagined."

Speaking of this, seeing Zheng Fusong's surprise look, he explained: "If the imperial court wants to rebuild Dongjiang Town, the navy is the top priority. In the future, the navy will be indispensable."

Speaking of this, Zhang Mingwei's expression became serious, and he looked at him and said: "Some time ago, news came from Liaodong that Jianlu gathered a large army to try to detour the Mongolian grassland and invade the pass. Although the court had strengthened the defense line of the Great Wall, it was too passive without Dongjiang Town. Therefore, the reconstruction of Dongjiang Town is the top priority of the court at present."

Seeing Zheng Fusong's deep thought expression, Zhang Mingwei said to him again: "This time, the court has sent a navy under Shanhaiguan to transport the cavalry to the hinterland of Liaodong, hoping to restrain the Jianhu army and have to return to support Liaodong. However, even if it is successful, it will be not so easy to build the barbarians next time. The reconstruction of Dongjiang Town is still an imminent matter. Among them, the importance of the navy is self-evident!"

"This is the near future. As for the long-term vision..." Zhang Mingwei said this, and asked him again: "Have you heard that the court wants to enfeoff all the vassal kings overseas to go to the vassal?"

As a typical example, King Zhou had already started to promote it. Zheng Fusong was still by the prince's side, so of course he knew better about this matter. Therefore, he nodded quickly to respond.

"Think about it, if there are so many vassal kings in the Ming Dynasty, if they all have overseas vassals, will the navy become very important?" Zhang Mingwei said with a smile, "I can tell you that in the future, there will be the Ming navy at the end of the sea. Do you think the Ming navy will be very important?"

"Where will the Ming Navy be at the end of the sea?" Hearing this, Zheng Fusong couldn't help but be dumbfounded and subconsciously repeated the sentence.

After hearing this, Zhang Mingwei nodded seriously and affirmed: "Of course!"

Zheng Fusong was obviously excited when he heard this. He was a little unimaginable. Will there be such a big change in the future?

After Zhang Mingwei said these words, he felt that it was almost done, so he said to Zheng Fusong seriously: "I intend to recommend you to the emperor as the deputy general of the Denglai Naval Division and the general leader of the Denglai Naval Division. How about it?"

As long as Duke Xingguo recommends it to the emperor, there will be nothing that will not happen. Zheng Fusong, who is the person around the prince, certainly knew about this.

Although it seems a bit shocking to become a deputy general of the navy, isn’t there a Jiangyin Dianshi who has now become the General of Shanhaiguan?
