It was not until this time that Zhang Mingzhen led the Wusong Navy to Wusongkou.

After Zhang Mingzhen got ashore, he came to meet Wu Zheng without stopping.

"Your Majesty, I'm late, I hope to forgive you."

Wu Zheng shook his hand without raising his head and said, "It's not too slow, how can I forgive my sins?"

Pointing to the map tiled on the table, Wu Zheng said: "The battle is on the string. If this battle is not successful, it will be successful. If you don't fight the Tartars back to the north bank of the Yellow River, you will never stop the army... Of course, my real goal is... this."

Zhang Mingzhen stepped forward and looked at Wu Zheng’s finger position, “Huai'an?”

"Yes!" Wu Zhengdian departed Huai'an Prefecture to govern Shanyang. "Control Huai'an and Jiangnan have enough strategic depth, which is equivalent to becoming a big rear. The enemy can no longer threaten and restrain our army by hoarding troops on the north bank of the Yangtze River. At the same time, he can more thoroughly control the Grand Canal and Huaiyang Waterway. The wealth in it can be said to be a daily gain of gold..."

Wu Zheng sighed: "Give you two choices, one is to go to the waters from Yingtian Prefecture to Jiangpu to blockade, prevent Fengyang Prefecture and Hubei Qing army from crossing the river to attack Yingtian Prefecture. The other is to station in the waters of Duanjing River to provide support, ammunition and material support for Taizhou Guards and Wusong Guards and Military Academy Corps."

Zhang Mingzhen thought for a moment and said, "That subordinate is willing to stay in the Jingjiang waters."

This is actually not difficult to choose. As long as the generals who want to participate in the war and earn military merits, they will choose to stay in Jingjiang, because it is not certain whether the enemy will come in the direction of Jiangpu. However, north of Jingjiang, Taizhou Guards have completed assembly, and the various guards have begun to deploy, and the war is about to begin.

Do you still need to choose?

However, Zhang Mingzhen raised two questions: one is if the Wusong Navy stays in the Jingjiang waters, who should I send to Jiangpu direction? The other is that the Zhoushan Navy Rebellion is about to be settled, how to decide the candidate for the general?

The first question was that Wu Zheng ignored it, and the second question was that Wu Zheng laughed.

"Are you interested in getting involved in the Zhoushan Navy?" Wu Zheng smiled on his face, but he was very annoyed. What he hated the most was eating what was in the bowl and looking at the pot.

It is a good thing for people to be enterprising, but they cannot expect something they should not be thinking about.

Wang Yilin looks rough and has big branches, but is actually careful.

He has always been a climbing official fan, and this is true from the Lianghu Guard Office of Shaoxing Prefecture, but Wang Yilin was right. The predecessor of Wang Zhiren's naval commander, Dinghai Naval Commander, could not be lost. More than 20,000 naval commanders sacrificed their lives for the country and had to leave a memory for the people of the world, especially those in Jiangnan.

Therefore, Wu Zheng did not blame Wang Yilin.

But...is Zhang Mingzhen the same?

Just when Wu Zheng was in a mess and was upset, Zhang Mingzhen said: "I am afraid. This matter is indeed not something that my subordinates should argue with. However, as the head general of the Wusong Navy, I have to make plans for the prince... I have no intention of referring to the Zhoushan Navy, but the candidate for the head general is related to the current situation, so I should be cautious!"

"What do you mean is that you want to recommend someone to me?"

"yes."

"Let me tell me."

Zhang Mingzhen hesitated for a moment, turned around and pulled Shi Lang outside the tent in, and said to Wu Zheng: "I recommend Shi Lang."

Wu Zheng looked at Shi Lang with a long eyebrows. The man with a cheek was a little shy and lowered his head, not daring to look at Wu Zheng.

This disappointed Wu Zheng. In Wu Zheng's opinion, how could a general who dared to fight dare not even look at him?

In other words, Wu Zheng has always advocated a saying that people with abilities should always have a "small temper".

Wu Zheng remained silent.

Zhang Mingzhen was anxious, "Prince, Shi Lang has the ability to lead troops... His subordinates have a lot of contact with him and know him. As long as the prince uses him seriously, Shi Lang will definitely work hard for the prince!"

Wu Zheng waved his hand and ignored Zhang Mingzhen, but asked Shi Lang: "Do you know what rank the general of Zhoushan Navy Division is? "

"Reply to the prince, I am the fourth rank."

"Are you worthy?" Wu Zheng snorted coldly, staring at Shi Lang and said.

Shi Lang's face turned red in an instant, and he looked up suddenly and stared at Wu Zheng.

Wu Zheng did not avoid giving in, and the two stared at each other.

Zhang Mingzhen was anxious, afraid that Shi Lang would contradict Wu Zheng, so he inserted a little between the two and roared at Shi Lang and said, "Don't be rude!"

After being scolded like this, Shi Lang exhaled his momentum and bowed and said, "I am not worthy of my humble position!"

Wu Zheng felt a sense of disappointment again. He couldn't force himself to become a brave general.

With this idea, Shi Lang will be out of the way.

But just when Wu Zheng turned around and ignored the two, Shi Lang suddenly pushed Zhang Mingzhen away and rushed to Wu Zheng, "When the prince escaped from Jiading and returned to Shaoxing, did he ever think that one day he would be named King of Wu and have an army of 200,000?"

Wu Zheng slowly turned around and said coldly: "What do you want to say?"

"It's up to people!" Shi Lang said with his neck, "Only one can do his own affairs in his position... If the prince has not served as the general of the Zhoushan Navy Division, how can the prince know whether he is worthy of the humble position?"

Wu Zheng stared at Shi Lang for a long time and said, "I climbed out of the pile of dead people. Choosing military generals is different from civil officials. Military generals must not be afraid of death. Are you afraid of death?"

"I am not afraid of death when I am humble!"

"Everyone can speak vernacularly, how can you win the trust of this king?"

"This..." Shi Lang hesitated for a moment and replied, "After all, the prince is just accusing Shi of turning against him at the last minute, thinking that Shi was afraid of death, and despised Shi as a surrender!"

Wu Zheng nodded and said, "You are right. Soldiers should value honor. If I regard surrendered generals as Zheng, how will Zheng treat themselves?"

Shi Lang's face turned purple, and he said angrily: "Shi failed to meet the prince earlier, it was God's will... Just like a child was born, he could not choose his biological parents. If the prince used this to belittle Shi...I...I..."

"What are you going to do?" Wu Zheng sneered.

"I don't accept it!" Shi Lang shouted.

Zhang Mingzhen on the side was stunned. He was a wise general and had already felt something. In fact, Zhang Mingzhen knew very well that Wu Zheng was not such a mean person, at least he would not be mean in person. The so-called abnormality of things must be a monster. Zhang Mingzhen tasted it a little bit, so he chose to remain silent and wait and see what happened.

But Shi Lang was angry. He was the person involved and was in the game. Besides, he was not a person as delicate as Zhang Mingzhen.

Wu Zheng sneered: "What if you don't accept it?"

This is a way to force the person to the corner and there is no way out.

If there is no way out, it is resistance.

If you don't break out in silence, you will die in silence.

Wu Zheng wants to see how Shi Lang chooses.

Because in history, Shi Lang chose to surrender to the Qing Dynasty, Wu Zheng had to be on guard. What choice would Shi Lang make now?

Oppose, or not?

However, Shi Lang's reaction was completely beyond Wu Zheng's expectations.

Shi Lang's face turned from purple to white, and then from white to blue, finally... fell to the ground!

"Woo... Shi hates me so much!" Shi Lang beats his chest and cries. "I thought that after half of his life, he will finally meet a bright master. I don't expect that he is so ignorant of the human heart... God's will, God's will!"
