Chapter 460 Daming who should not come

Ruan Kuan looked at Mo Jingzhang and wanted to persuade him, but Mo Jingzhang waved his hand and signaled that Ruan Kuan would not need to say anything more. Ruan Kuan could only turn around and walk out helplessly, and he had to sigh in his heart. It was not without reason for Mo Chao's decline. It was so time, and he was still concerned about this and that.

Looking at Ruan Kuan's back, the expression on Mo Jingzhang's face was still very light, and his thoughts were different from Ruan Kuan.

Perhaps the perspective of the problem is different. In Mo Jingzhang's view, Li Chao wants to fight, Zheng Jian wants to fight, and the Ming Dynasty wants to fight.

Zheng Jian wanted to destroy Mo Chao, but wasn't the Ming Dynasty? Mo Jingzhang believed that Ruan Huang knew what to choose. Ruan Huang's best choice now is to unite with him, rather than go to the Ming Dynasty as Ruan Kuan thought. Zheng Jian wanted to get rid of Ruan Huang and then go quickly, but wasn't the Ming Dynasty? The best way now is to join forces.

Outside Haiyang City, Ruan Huang's camp.

Ruan Huang looked at the messenger Mo Jingzhang in front of him, and the expression on his face was a little strange. What did Mo Jingzhang send an messenger to do at this time?

Do you want to surrender?

Ruan Huang thought it was impossible. Mo Jingzhang was not a fool. What was going on now? He would have to cut people with a knife when he met. Two kings of Mo Chao died, and all the ministers of the royal family were killed. Does Mo Jingzhang think he was special? If Mo Jingzhang surrendered, he shouldn't have found his place!

He could not make any decision about Mo Jingzhang's life or death. Will Zheng Jian let Mo Jingzhang go? It is impossible.

"See the king!"

Mo Jingzhang's messenger was a young man. Although he was standing in the enemy's camp, he was not afraid, so he let Ruan Huang take a high look.

Ruan Huang nodded, then said, "What did your king ask you to do? Could it be that he wants to surrender in the city?"

Ruan Huang didn't believe what he said. Why did people in Haiyang and other places support Mo Jingzhang? He was not interested in his identity as the King of Kings. Once Mo Jingzhang chose to surrender, his subordinates might be in chaos. He would not have to do anything at that time, and Mo Jingzhang would be finished.

"Go back to the king, my king asked me to come here, but in fact he just sent me a message, that is, the people of the Ming Dynasty came. They came from the outer sea by boat and have now landed. They should be in Haiyang in the past two days." Mo Jingzhang's envoy did not care about Ruan Huang's mockery, but said lightly.

After hearing what Mo Jingzhang said, Ruan Huang couldn't laugh out loud, and the expression on his face also frozen.

The Ming Dynasty is coming? This is too sudden!

At this moment, Ruan Huang thought a lot, and the first thing he thought was what the Ming Dynasty suddenly came here to do? The Ming Dynasty definitely did not come to play houses, and it was even more impossible to see the scenery. Then there was only one possibility left. The Ming Dynasty was here to beat himself! In the past, they were all the Jiaozhi Governor General of the Ming Dynasty. Who didn’t know the fear of being dominated by the Ming Dynasty?

The second thought was what to do? Fight against the Ming Dynasty and be head-on? No, absolutely not.

Waving his hand to let Mo Jingzhang's envoy go down, Ruan Huang ordered: "Go and invite Mr. Ruan Bingqian."

Ruan Bingqian, the top strategist under Ruan Huang, was also his most capable assistant. After Ruan Huang's brother died, Ruan Huang was in panic all day long and decided to retire because he was sick to eliminate Zheng Jian's vigilance. At the same time, he sent people to ask for advice from the famous scholar Ruan Bingqian. Ruan Bingqian's words indicate the future situation of the north and the south.

The Hengshan area will be here for generations.

Hue and Guangnan areas south of Hengshan are the southernmost part of the country's borders, but they are only in the middle of Vietnam's territory today and later generations.

The local forests are dense, with long mountains running through the entire area, rivers and valleys crisscrossing, and fertile plains between the mountains and the oceans. The special terroir of humid and hot seasons has nurtured the Champa civilization that blends Indian culture and Malay culture. In order to expand the living space, Vietnamese dynasties have devoted their best to invade Champa to the south.

The borders of Vietnamese occupation continued to move southward. At this time, the Vietnamese plundered the land of Champa to the limit. Li Shengzong set up a boundary monument at the cape of Shibi Mountain, writing the eighteen major characters: "The Champa people passed this way, the army was defeated and the country was destroyed; the Annan people passed this way, the soldiers were about to die." These newly developed territories became remote areas where prisoners were exiled in Vietnam and the southern dynasties were also safe havens for political exiles.

With Ruan Bingqian's suggestion, Ruan Huang regarded this place as his life-saving straw. Ruan Huang wanted to break away from Zheng Jian's clampdown and regard the south of Hengshan as a new world to establish a foothold.

Ruan Huang asked his brother-in-law Zheng Jian through his sister Yubao to allow him to leave Hue. At that time, Hue and Guangnan areas had just experienced wars, and the situation was not clear. Zheng Jian's power was beyond reach, and many locals even crossed the sea to Mochao. At this time, he just threw this hot potato to Ruan Huang.

Zheng Jian advised Emperor Li Yingzong: Huhua must be guarded by good generals. Ruan Huang should be used to guard Huhua and serve as a support to Guangnan. Yingzong agreed to what he asked.

Under such circumstances, Ruan Huang left the town of Shunhua and stationed in Aizishe. Later, Zheng Jian recalled the General of Guangnan and ordered Ruan Huang to lead Guangnan, paying 400 kilograms of silver and 500 pieces of silk every year as tribute. This action allowed Ruan Huang to stay away from the forefront of the war in the Southern and Northern Dynasties. Ruan Huang relied on northern immigrants and prisoners to develop Guangnan and Hue. In just over a decade, Shunguang area became a place where "the market has no price, people do not steal, and merchants from all countries gathered together."

Now Ruan Huang is no longer the one who let Zheng Jian knead him. Although his strength is not as good as Zheng Jian, he can protect himself. He relies on the "Hengshan area, stay in the world for generations" proposed by Ruan Bingqian. These eight words have become Ruan Huang's life-saving straw, and Ruan Bingqian has become Ruan Huang's most trusted person and counselor.

This time Ruan Huang came north to compete with Zheng Jian, and all he brought was his direct descendants.

Once your direct lineman is too damaged in this battle, it will directly lead to the failure of the confrontation with Zheng Jian, which is absolutely not allowed by Ruan Huang.

Of course, Ruan Huang in history also failed. Ruan Huang went north by sending troops to help pacify the remnants of the Mo family in various places. After the war eased, Ruan Huang, who was excluded by Zheng Song, left the north sadly. He married his daughter to Zheng Song's son as his wife. After that, he accumulated strength in Shunguang area and never went north again. Zheng knew that Ruan Huang was deliberately separating the south, but he could not do anything.

Before Ruan Huang died, Ruan Huang summoned his relatives to the bed and told him earnestly: "There is the danger of Hengshan Lingjiang in north, and the solidity of Haiyunbei Mountain in south. The mountain produces gold and iron, and the sea produces fish and salt. It is a place where heroes use their weapons. If they can tame the people and fight against the Zheng family, they will be able to build a career for generations."

The fact is just as Ruan Huang expected. The Ruan family did compete with the Zheng family based on this. Although it was later flooded by the peasant uprising, the Ruan family was not destroyed by the Zheng Chao, but was destroyed in its own hands.
