Back to the end of the Ming Dynasty when the emperor

Chapter 708 Rescue Zheng Chenggong (5)

Li Quan reported the incident to Zhu Yousong in detail. When Zhu Yousong learned that Zheng Hongkui and Zheng Chenggong's uncle and nephew were detained in caves on two islands, and two general officers were personally responsible for the detention. , The security is so strict, to rescue Zheng Chenggong's uncle and nephew at this time is tantamount to digging meat out of a tiger's mouth.Thanks to his strategizing, and thanks to Liu Guoxuan's resourcefulness.

First, Li Quan was rewarded with a table of imperial banquets to comfort him for his hard work on this trip. Taking advantage of Li Quan's meal time, Zhu Yousong wrote a letter overnight. The content of the letter was to first praise Liu Guoxuan, Li Quan and others, After formulating a specific rescue plan and a plan to seize the island, he dried up the ink and handed it to Li Quan with the jade seal.

Li Quan, who was full of wine and food, carried Zhu Yousong's handwritten edict, bid farewell to Zhu Yousong at five o'clock, and returned to Kinmen Island with two entourages in a small boat at dawn.Fearing that Li Quan would be exposed, the schedule was tight.

After sending Li Quan away, Zhu Yousong felt extremely relaxed. Now Zheng Chenggong's uncle and nephew were saved, and Jinmen, big and small, were within easy reach.After dealing with the war here, Zhu Yousong plans to go to Li Zicheng's side to see if Shi Lang and that Yao Dadao are settled?For a talent like Shi Lang, it is best for him to be as loyal to Daming as Liu Guoxuan, it is the blessing of Daming and my blessing.

I just don't know if this Shi Lang is really as heroic as recorded in history?Is it a hero who knows current affairs like Liu Guoxuan?

Seeing that there is still an hour before dawn, this time can't be wasted, so he will start today's martial arts training.

Practicing Qi first, Zhu Yousong found a place to sit cross-legged, like an old monk meditating, and practiced the method of interbreathing with plants and trees. Straits of white air flowed in and out of his nostrils, exhaling with the nearby flowers, plants and trees.

Xiao Liu, who was dressed in chivalrous makeup, was also sitting next to him, pretending, breathing and meditating.But she couldn't comprehend the mystery of it, she could only adjust her breath, take a breath of fresh air, and just like that, she felt refreshed and extremely comfortable.

After such half an incense stick of kung fu, Zhu Yousong began to dance the sword again, and the arc-shaped sword light enveloped him. The wonderful thing was that there were no people in the sword light, and Xiao Liu and Li Guofu were beside him, clapping their hands and applauding.

Then Xiao Liu took the ginseng soup from the hand of the eunuch Li Guofu, let Zhu Yousong drink a few mouthfuls, and then Zhu Yousong and Xiao Liu started to confront swords, which was actually pointing Liu Shi's swordsmanship. Through this method, The two complement each other perfectly.

The light of the sword and the sound of the sword are pleasing to the eye, and the two swords collide occasionally, and the sound is clear and crisp.A beautiful figure with a strong body, jumping and jumping, flashing and moving, like two chivalrous swordsmen competing in martial arts.

It is also a kind of enjoyment for the supporting ladies and eunuchs to watch the two practice martial arts here.

It wasn't until the sun was bright that Zhu Yousong and Xiao Liu stopped their moves, washed their faces, and were accompanied by Ma Jinhua, He Xuanjiao and Huimei. After eating early, Zhu Yousong immediately sent an order to be promoted to the tent.

The commander-in-chief and above officers on the shore and the commander of the navy immediately rushed to Zhu Yousong's imperial camp and tent when they heard the sound of the drum.

Many people don't know what's going on. They have been stationed in Xiamen Island for several days. Zhu Yousong has been standing still. Most people think it is a normal truce. Today, he suddenly raised his account and gathered generals, thinking that Jinmen Island must be attacked.One by one, they were gearing up, planning to fight desperately and make new achievements.They only guessed half right, and many generals didn't know the inside story.

Civil and military officials, all with bright helmets and armor, full of energy, paid homage to the king, and after the mountain shouted long live, Zhu Yousong let them flatten, looked at the civil and military generals, and said with great interest: "My dear family, the time has come , to regain the big and small Jinmen, I will now divide the troops and send generals..."

This time Zhu Yousong dispatched 300 naval forces, more than [-] large and small warships. The troops were divided into two groups, one led by Liu Wenxiu, and headed for Xiaojinmen.The other route was directed by Zhu Yousong himself, and went to Dajinmen.

The remaining tens of thousands of troops, including the navy, were commanded by Liu Zhaoji and He Zhaoxiong, and were on standby here.Basically, the army on the road was not needed for this battle, only the navy could settle it. He Zhaoxiong was injured, and this time, Zhu Yousong didn't assign him any specific tasks.

After everything was ready, the two armies left the military port of Xiamen Island and set off near noon.

[-] sailors, hundreds of warships lined up the sea, majestic, Ming flag, royal flag, and general flags of various colors, forming a colorful flag, hunting on the bow, screaming is good looking.

Zhu Yousong, wearing a dragon crown with eight treasures and pearls on his head and wearing heavy armor, stood upright on the bow of the boat with his sword in his hand.The sea breeze is blowing, which makes people feel refreshed.

Today's weather is also good, there are no clouds in the sky, the vast sea is rushing towards the sky, and the looming big and small Kinmen Islands can be seen in a panoramic view.

Looking around, there are dense armored soldiers, warships lined up, swords and guns like forests, silver lights shining, and black muzzles facing the sky. At this time, Zhu Yousong felt a sense of arrogance.

The heroic He Xuanjiao, wearing a silver helmet and silver armor, and a bright red battle robe, is particularly conspicuous, adorning Zhu Yousong's side, this female general is like a little red in a green bush.

Half an hour later, the Kinmen Island in front of my eyes became clearer...

A large number of fleets from the Ming army arrived, and it was reported to Zheng Zhiwan, Zheng Ming, Zheng Xing and others.

Zheng Zhiwan hastened to divide his troops to resist, but at this time Zheng Zhiwan was not worried. With Zheng Hongkui and Zheng Chenggong's nephew and great reputation, and Liu Guoxuan as a brave general, why should he be afraid of Zhu Yousong's tens of thousands of sailors?
In addition to Zheng Zhiwan, Zheng Hongkui, Zheng Chenggong, Liu Guoxuan, Zheng Ming, Zheng Xing and other senior generals guarding the island were sitting in the tent.

The three generals Zheng Hongkui, Zheng Chenggong, and Liu Guoxuan looked at each other and smiled, tacit understanding with each other. More than an hour ago, Li Quan had given them Zhu Yousong's edict, and they had already made all preparations.

The three generals stood up, volunteered, and led the generals on the island to resist Zhu Yousong's troops in two groups, threatening to wipe out the Ming army at sea.

Zheng Zhiwan, Zheng Xing, and Zheng Ming were overjoyed. They fully believed that these three were not bragging, they had such strength.Except for the hundreds of soldiers left by the three of them, the rest of the military power was handed over to these three generals, and they were sent to the sea to resist the enemy. Zheng Zhiwan, Zheng Ming and Zheng Xing watched the battle on the two islands and heard the victory report.

If it weren't for Zheng Hongkui and Zheng Chenggong, Zheng Zhilong, Zheng Zhiwan, Zheng Ming, and Zheng Xing would have already abdicated before seeing Zheng Zhilong. Without the will of Emperor Longwu, in fact without Zheng Zhilong's order, these three dare not make decisions without authorization.

Zheng Hongkui, Zheng Chenggong, and Liu Guoxuan were not polite at all. They brought the [-] sailors from the two islands to the shore of the island, ready to meet Zhu Yousong's Ming fleet.

At this time, Zhu Yousong's naval fleet came aggressively and entered the range of firepower. The battalion officer in charge of artillery on the ship asked Zheng Hongkui, Zheng Chenggong and Liu Guoxuan for instructions to fire...
