Ming Dynasty: The poisonous imperial teacher, Zhu Yuanzhang advised me to be kind

Chapter 182: Is there a loophole in Chu Nan's plan? That was just a trap for you!

Then he looked at Chu Nan with a strange expression.

"Chu Nan, this doesn't make sense? Your plan has a lot of loopholes."

"Huh?" Zhu Di was puzzled when he heard Yao Guangxiao's words.

"Mr. Yao, where is the loophole in Lord Chu's plan? Isn't it a very good plan?"

"Let the army retreat and ambush, and let them be self-sufficient without spending money, and then lure the Japanese pirates back, and then take advantage of the situation to attack and destroy them. This strategy is great."

"Why do you say there is a loophole?" Zhu Di was really puzzled. Could it be that Chu Nan was too popular, Yao Guangxiao was jealous of Chu Nan, and deliberately sabotaged him? That would be too much.

"Of course." But Yao Guangxiao's expression became serious.

"Your Highness Prince Yan, have you forgotten that there are people in my court who are colluding with the Japanese pirates?"

"We have five thousand people going to ambush under the pretext of returning to Nanjing. The Japanese pirates may not know about such a big move, but doesn't the traitor in the court know about it?"

"As long as the traitor in the court checks the whereabouts of the Jinwu Vanguard according to the list, everything will be clear. If he informs the Japanese pirates at that time, won't our ambush be in vain?"

"Yes! How could I have forgotten this?" Zhu Di slapped his head and then suddenly realized.

There are still people in the Ming Dynasty who are colluding with the Japanese pirates. If this traitor is not eliminated, their plan will be leaked.

Isn’t it because of this reason that the Japanese pirates were not completely wiped out in the battle of Taizhou?

And now, Chu Nan's plan will not work because of this traitor.

Zhu Di also shook his head and looked at Chu Nan: "It seems to be the case, Lord Chu, this plan won't work."

Zhu Di and Yao Guangxiao now both felt that Chu Nan’s plan was not working, and the situation seemed to have reached a deadlock all of a sudden.

"No?" But Chu Nan smiled when he heard what they said.

"What's wrong with this?"

"What you are worried about is that these pirates will send people to communicate with the traitors in the court, right?"

"But don't forget that I can command a total of 5,000 Jinyiwei in Fujian and Zhejiang. If I deploy all these 5,000 Jinyiwei on the main roads to check people entering Beijing?"

"Yes!" Zhu Di was shocked when he heard this.

Chu Nan uses soldiers against soldiers and intelligence against intelligence. This method works.

Isn't it possible for the Japanese pirates to send someone to communicate with the traitor? Can't they just arrange for the Jinyiwei to block them?

He was delighted: "Lord Chu, you are really amazing. Your method is cautious and well thought out. I admire you!"

"This..." But Yao Guangxiao frowned when he heard it.

How could this be considered well thought out? The five thousand Jinyiwei were indeed powerful, but could they really block the news?

It would be fine if we blocked the connection between the Japanese pirates and the traitors in the court, but what if we can't block it? Wouldn't it be a waste of time?
But Yao Guangxiao did not express this doubt, after all, there was still a possibility of blocking the news.

Moreover, Zhu Di has praised Chu Nan so much. If I express my doubts at this time, wouldn't that be offending Zhu Di and make Zhu Di look stupid?

So he decided not to say anything.

But Yao Guangxiao's little expression was seen clearly by Chu Nan. Chu Nan was not stupid, he knew what Yao Guangxiao was going to say.

Isn't it just thinking about what would happen if the Japanese pirates got in touch with the traitor?
But for Chu Nan, there is no chance of a suspense, because Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Di, Yao Guangxiao and others do not know who the traitor is. But Chu Nan is a time traveler, he can guarantee 100% that the traitor must be Hu Weiyong's party!
Therefore, he has used his identity as the deputy commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard to arrange people to monitor Hu Weiyong and all his followers in Nanjing!
So will those Japanese pirates still have a chance to contact Hu Weiyong?

Chu Nan even wanted these Japanese pirates to contact Hu Weiyong, so that they would have solid evidence and could directly kill Hu Weiyong!

This is what Chu Nan thought!
After Chu Nan issued this order, Geng Bingwen immediately did it and held a banquet directly in the military camp.

All the good things were served to the soldiers, such as fine wine, fat chickens, stewed pig's trotters, etc., and because this was the seaside, they even brought in countless fish to grill.

The soldiers really ate and drank to their heart's content for three days and were delighted. Afterwards, Chu Nan gave each of them ten taels of silver, which made them even happier and they were very grateful to Chu Nan.

But after three days of feasting and drinking, Chu Nan assigned the tasks, and the five thousand Jinwu vanguard soldiers went straight back to Jinling.

When they were halfway there, Chu Nan asked them to lie in wait in small teams, farming when they should farm, sleeping when they should sleep, and hunting when they should hunt.

Even if it is for hiding, it is fine to go up the mountain and occupy the mountain as the king.

Anyway, you must not reveal your identity or disturb others.

However, the news of Chu Nan's departure was not notified to the people of Taizhou, so the people of Taizhou were in an uproar.

It is said that Chu Nan and his men are all talk and no action. They said they would destroy the Japanese pirates, but they ran away within a few days of their arrival. Who will protect them?

He also said that everything Chu Nan did was just pretense and false benevolence, and that Chu Nan was a hypocrite.

There were also many angry people who wanted to go to Nanjing to sue Chu Nan, but all of this was secretly stopped by the Jinyiwei.

At the same time, the spies arranged by the Japanese pirates in Taizhou City also learned the news.

They were all shocked. Did the people of the Ming Dynasty, seeing that they couldn't do anything to them, just go back? This was good news.

They immediately boarded a boat and went to the pirates' new lair to report the news.

But they were also quite cautious and arranged for people to go around Taizhou to check for any ambushes.

They thought that if Chu Nan and the others really left, everything would be great. Their army would be able to make a comeback, and then all the gold, silver, treasures, and beautiful women in Jinling would be theirs.

……

Japanese country.

An island.

In order to avoid the Ming army, the Japanese pirate Taro Kojima ran here with Hu Lu and five or six thousand remaining soldiers under his command.

Their last loss was very heavy. Not only did they lose more than 3,000 people, but they also lost their old nest. Many treasures in the nest were not taken away in time, and fell into the hands of the Ming army.

However, because they had the support of Hu Weiyong, they grew stronger again.

At present, Taro Kojima has recruited more than 5,000 Japanese pirates in Japan.

So now Taro Kojima has almost 12,000 followers.

But he has to support so many people, and the daily expenses are very high, so he urgently needs to rob to maintain his power.

But the current situation makes him very troubled. It is not easy to rob the Ming Dynasty because there are so many people in Taizhou.

But, on this day, he finally got the chance.
