My history chat group

For Daming or Nanming, Zheng Zhilong doesn't have a strong sense of belonging, as long as the benefits are sufficient, he can agree to a change of master.

The conditions offered by King Wang Yu of the Ming Dynasty really moved Zheng Zhilong's heart.

Zheng Hongkui replied: "I thought that King Daming was loyal to Daming, but he did not expect that he built the Chinese Empire. Facing the Nanming court, the Qing army, and Zhang Xianzhong, the three forces were undefeated, but they had the strength to attack the three.

Today, the Qing army was not allowed to enter the pass, Zhang Xianzhong was blocked in Hanzhong from going north, and the Nanming court was beaten by Wu Sangui to retreat.

Could it be that the trend is really in the Chinese Empire?"

The strength of the Huaxia Empire is shocking.Although Zheng Hongkui did not explicitly say to take refuge in the Chinese Empire, he utterly lamented its incomparable strength.

"The Huaxia Empire is so powerful that it is invincible. It has already captured Yangzhou, and the next step is Yingtianfu. I heard that some people suggested moving the capital to Hangzhou and continue to resist."

Zheng Zhibao smiled and said: "In my opinion, if we don't surrender, we might as well let the emperor come to Fuzhou. With our Zheng family, we can also deal with the Chinese Empire."

He had confidence in the Zheng family, and was a little arrogant.

Zheng Zhilong looked at Zheng Zhibao and exhorted: "Fourth brother, this is what we talked about at home. Don't talk nonsense outside, otherwise it will cause trouble."

Zheng Zhibao disagrees, but he also replied, "Don't worry, brother, I know how to measure."

Knowing the temperament of his fourth brother, Zheng Zhilong shook his head and continued to talk about the business: "The King Daming of the China Empire personally sent me a letter, as well as a letter from Wu Sangui. He wanted my Zheng family to join in, and he promised generous treatment.

To be honest, the treatment given by King Daming really made me feel a little moved.So I call you to discuss it."

His nephew Zheng Cai is also older than Zheng Chenggong, and he is also a good player in fighting. He said: "The Nanming court is still focusing on party disputes. The Chinese Empire is so powerful. Wu Sangui is a famous general. The destruction of the country will probably be a matter of time.

Even if the emperor came to Fuzhou and our Zheng family was in charge of all military power, it would be difficult to compete with the Chinese Empire.

The Emperor Daming of the Chinese Empire could reuse Wu Sangui, Wang Yongji and other former civil servants, and also appointed a female general, which shows his heart.

Presumably, if we really took refuge in the past, King Daming would not break our promise."

Hearing that, Zheng Cai is also in favor of taking refuge in the Chinese Empire, and at the same time it can be regarded as catering to Zheng Zhilong.

Zheng Hongkui had different opinions and ambitions. His eyes were sharp, and he said, "Big brother, the world is still bright today, at least in the south. If I wait to welcome the emperor to Fuzhou, we might be able to learn from Cao Cao."

"Cao Cao?"

Zheng Zhilong understands the meaning in Zheng Hongkui's words: the emperor is narrow to make the princes!

However, the situation is different now that he was not Cao Cao in the late Eastern Han Dynasty.

"How easy is it?"

Zheng Zhilong raised his eyebrows and said: "Shi Kefa, Huang Degong, Liu Liangzuo, Liu Zeqing, Gao Jie, Ma Shiying and others are still there. I am afraid that he will not agree to the emperor's move to Fuzhou, most likely in Hangzhou."

As he said, he sneered: "Shi Kefa also suggested that the emperor let me Zheng Jiajun go to fight Wu Sangui, and he didn't even think about it. Zheng Jiajun is mainly a navy. If he goes to fight Wu Sangui, it is still unclear whether he can win. But without Zheng Jiajun in Fujian, Who will defend Zhang Xianzhong's navy in Huguang and who will defend Wu Sangui's navy?"

Zheng Zhilong didn’t want to waste his Zheng family’s power in vain. He looked at Zheng Chenggong, who had not spoken, and asked: “I usually talk a lot, why don’t you say it now? This matter is related to the rise and fall of the Zheng family. How do you think about it? Tell me?"

Zheng Chenggong does have a different idea.

"Father, third uncle, fourth uncle."

Zheng Chenggong respectfully said: "Loyal ministers do not matter to the two masters. The Nanming court is still here, which means that the Ming Dynasty has not died. I think we should be loyal to the Nanming court. If this is the case, the Zheng family will join the Chinese Empire.

Zheng Zhilong, Zheng Hongkui, Zheng Zhibao, Zheng Caiyi and others have to consider what he said.

If both merit and fame can be obtained, it is naturally the best.

Whether to take refuge in the Chinese Empire, or to continue to be loyal to the Nanming court, a few people have not reached a reunification after discussing for a long time.

While they were discussing, an emergency military report came: Anqing Mansion was attacked by Wu Sangui, and Huang Degong, who guarded Anqing Mansion, was defeated and captured.

"I didn't expect Anqing Mansion to be breached so quickly, Huang Degong is really incompetent!"

Zheng Zhibao cursed and said: "Brother, do we want to bring troops north to support? Otherwise, Ying Tianfu really can't keep it, and the emperor comforts Nan Ming's survival."

Zheng Zhilong ordered someone to bring the map, pointed to Yingtian Mansion above, and said: "Yangzhou Mansion, Anqing Mansion has fallen, and Wu Sangui's soldiers and horses can travel from Yangzhou, Anqing and the sea to Yingtian Mansion.

Even if the emperor moved his capital to Hangzhou, it would not be complete!"

After a long period of thought, Zheng Zhilong made a decision, saying: "We are the courtiers of Daming, and we must go to the emperor for help. If we can't resist Wu Sangui, we will retreat to Fujian."

"it is good!"

Zheng Hongkui clapped his hands and said: "Send troops to rescue and bring the emperor to Fuzhou!"

It seems that the Zheng family wants to give it a try.

It's just that Ming Wang Wang Yu and Zhang Xianzhong are not Ming princes, they can't order them.

Chapter 114: Six officials also do math homework

The Chinese Empire, the capital, and the Forbidden City.

Headed by Zhang Liang, Zhuge Liang, and Tang Ruowang, they are teaching more than 20 people selected from the six books, teaching them numbers, mathematics and letters.

It starts with the simplest elementary school math teaching, because apart from Tang Ruowang, both Zhang Liang and Zhuge Liang are still beginners.

Zhang Liang had already been in contact with mathematics during the Great Qin Dynasty, and Zhang Liang only came into contact with it not long ago, but because of the help of the universal translator of the history chat group, he learned quickly.

If you want to engage in science in the Chinese Empire, you cannot do without numbers, mathematics, letters and other basic things.

The war hasn't ended yet, and the world hasn't been unified, Wang Yu can't spread these things all at once.What's more, new things also need a process of acceptance.

Although Tang Ruowang lived for quite a long time in the Ming Dynasty, few people learned Western science knowledge such as mathematics from him.

Therefore, Wang Yu discussed with Zhang Liang, Zhuge Liang, Tang Ruowang and others, and first selected some officials from the six departments who could receive knowledge of mathematics for training.

Among them, six other four books have also come, such as the Book of Rites: Chen Que.

This training class is located in the Wenhua Hall in the Forbidden City, with desks, blackboards, podiums and so on.

Zhang Liang stood in front of the podium, holding a lecture book in one hand and chalk in the other, writing on the blackboard.

Zhuge Liang, Tang Ruowang, and Wang Yu sat at the back.

Soon, Zhang Liang finished what he was going to talk about. He turned around and said to the two dozen officials sitting in front of him: "Today, I'm talking about the nine-nine multiplication table. Follow me and read it. Two, one three is three... two two is four..."

These selected officials are all good at math.Therefore, after you have learned the numbers, you can quickly learn by matching the numbers with the numbers in Chinese characters.

The basic algorithm of arithmetic is the same, but it is replaced by numbers. As long as you can adapt and get used to it, it is not difficult to learn.
