After dealing with these trivial matters, the Hua army continued to advance without encountering any obstacles on the way, and arrived at the foot of Fuzhou City all the way.

And when their front feet had just arrived, Cheng Wu, the messenger of Zheng Zhilong's hind feet, came to the Chinese army to ask for a meeting.

"I have seen you all, my generals have prepared a banquet in the city to welcome you all."

Cheng Wu bowed.

"Oh, listen to what you mean, is Zheng Zhilong going to surrender?"

Wang Dayong asked.

Well, Wang Dayong is not surprised at all.

After the Battle of Ningde ended, Zheng Zhilong sent someone to express his willingness to surrender to Dahua's spies.

"My generals are impressed by His Majesty Dahua's wiseness and martial arts. They dare not go against the will of God. They are willing to follow the general trend and do their best for Dahua."

Cheng Wu said.

"Since you are ready to surrender, why don't you put down your weapons and come out of the city to see us? I look at the city wall, and it seems that there are still defenders."

Wang Dayong sneered.

He was asking knowingly. People like Zheng Zhilong who had a large army in their hands, as well as people in the turf and cities, generally had conditions to surrender.

If the conditions are not met, surrender can also turn into a deadly fight.

"What the commander said is, it should be. However, my general wants to ask for an errand so that he can continue to work for Dahua."

Wang Dayong is a rough man. He is not used to Cheng Wu's twists and turns. He asked straight to the point: "Just tell me what conditions he wants."

Cheng Wu was embarrassed, but the details were not important.

He replied: "My general hopes to lead another division of soldiers and horses to guard Fujian and other places for His Majesty. At the same time, he also hopes that His Majesty can reward a Viscount, so that he can continue to enjoy the glory and wealth."

This request, to be honest, is not excessive.

After all, Zheng Zhilong still has an army of 60,000 people.

Some small countries in Europe, the entire country can't make up 60,000 troops, this is not a small force.

However, Wang Dayong was not very happy in his heart.

Not only is he unhappy, but the entire Southern Legion is unhappy.

When we chatted privately before, we discussed that after taking Fuzhou, how much money can be copied from the Zheng family, and how much can be withheld for the Southern Army, so as to improve the life of the army.

It can be said that in the eyes of everyone, the Zheng family is a fat sheep.

If they accepted this fat sheep, they would have no roast lamb to eat in the future.

Even after accepting this fat sheep, this fat sheep will compete with them for food.

"Isn't Zheng Zhilong very confident before, there was a deadly battle with our army at sea and on land, killing thousands of our army soldiers. Now that he is willing to surrender, he just wants to erase the grievances of the past?"

Xue Guiren sneered.

In his opinion, Zheng Zhilong has no value to win over.

The so-called army of 60,000 people is also a mob.

As long as you put a few shots, and finally rush another wave, this Fuzhou will be won.

At most, one or two thousand more people died.

Compared with those wealth, it is worth to die another thousand or two thousand people.

Well, this is the idea of ​​their generals.

The above stipulation is to try to recruit the enemy who is willing to surrender. This is a principled policy, and they do not dare to violate it at will. This is their headache.

"Xue Jun is serious. Before, everyone was their own master, and there was no right or wrong. After everyone became colleagues, there is no need to worry about the past.

In order to express our apology to those soldiers who died, my general would like to give a sum of 50,000 taels of silver as compensation. And my generals also held a banquet in the mansion, ready to entertain the generals. "

Cheng Wu was implying to everyone that Zheng Zhilong had benefits for them.

As for the benefit, this can be estimated from the number of 50,000 taels given to the soldiers.

I gave fifty thousand to the soldiers, and at least one to two hundred thousand to the generals.

"If this is the case, then ask the messenger to go back and report that we agree to his request."

Wang Dayong was still struggling, but Tao Dongcheng was the first to say yes.

This made Wang Dayong a little unhappy, but in order to take care of Tao Dongcheng's face, he did not immediately panic. He just kept winking at Tao Dongcheng, signaling him to change his tune.

But Tao Dongcheng gave him a reassuring look.

Cheng Wu knew that Tao Dongcheng was the No. 2 figure in the Huajun Southern Corps, and that the promise he gave was effective, and he immediately smiled.

Before he came, he was worried that the two sides had fought too hard and the other party would not be able to accept Zheng Zhilong's surrender.

So far, things are going well.

Afterwards, the two briefly discussed the next handover process, and Cheng Wu went back to report first.

As soon as Cheng Wu left, the generals who had not spoken at all fired at Tao Dongcheng.

"Comrade Tao, what do you mean? Didn't everyone mean before that they didn't accept Zheng Zhilong? Why do you make a decision on your own now and agree to them?"

Xue Guiren asked.

"Commander Xue is calm, and I have no plans to accept him."

Tao Dongcheng said.

"But......."

Xue Guiren didn't understand, Tao Dongcheng had already agreed, so why was he not accepting it.

"Commander Xue, I'm also thinking about the lives of the soldiers. What's wrong with taking Fuzhou without a fight? As for Zheng Zhilong, it's not that easy for him to join us."

Tao Dongcheng smiled and continued: "When he gives up his military power, we can do whatever we want. Didn't the people in the intelligence department say that Zheng Zhibao took part of the navy and went out to sea as a pirate.

They still want to stay behind, but they don't know it's a dead end. At that time, we can use this as an excuse to ask Zheng Zhilong to order Zheng Zhibao to surrender as well. If he can't, then it's no wonder that we punish him for doing something bad, or put him on a charge of false surrender.

Even if Zheng Zhibao heard his words and surrendered, we can continue to find other reasons. He worked for the tiger for so many years in Fujian, and he didn't do anything to hurt the world? At that time, we will stand up on behalf of the suffering people and be the masters of the people. Don't the people want to applaud? "

Tao Dongcheng's meaning is very clear, that is, he will pretend to accept Zheng Zhilong's surrender first, and then take Fuzhou first.

In the future, there will be many opportunities to engage Zheng Zhilong.

As long as there is an excuse, there is no need to worry about others saying that Dahua is not keeping promises.

And the excuse is not to mention that it is very easy to find, even if it is not easy to find, you can find a way to make one.

If Zheng Zhilong is knowledgeable, it would be best to donate all his family property.

If Zheng Zhilong still wants to keep this family property, then don't blame them for trying to make things difficult and frame them.

Zheng Zhilong, who has no military power, can only be slaughtered by them at that time.

This.......

After hearing Tao Dongcheng's plan, everyone took a deep breath in their hearts, secretly saying that these tactical staff members are really insidious, and they must not be offended, or they will die in the future without knowing how they died.

However, everyone still agrees with Tao Dongcheng's plan.

As for those who sympathize with Zheng Zhilong, there is no one.

The Zheng family is rich, and this is the original sin.

What's more, Zheng Zhilong is not a good person, and he deserves to be framed.
