The current situation cannot give Guo Zhiyuan too much time to consider. The longer he thinks, the more he seems to have a ghost in his heart. In the end, Guo Zhiyuan still chose to believe in the history of the records of Shen Yourong. History may not be able to evaluate a person completely fairly and comprehensively, but through the records of history, a person's personality can be roughly restored. Shen Yourong in history is not a person who likes to follow the rules, but it can be seen that he actually has a very heavy hero complex, so he will come back again and again after giving up the pick again and again, using Shen Yourong's hero complex to make him use it for himself. This may be Guo Zhiyuan's only chance!

Thinking of this, Guo Zhiyuan gritted his teeth and said seriously: "Yes, I attacked Dongfan not only to suppress the rebellion, but what I want is long-term stability in the coastal areas of Fujian! Although Dongfan is nominally the territory of the Ming Dynasty, it has never been included in the jurisdiction of the court, so that our inland sea in Fujian has been pirates and Japanese pirates rampant, and the coastal people have suffered greatly. If we can take down Dongfan, garrison troops on it, and truly include it in the jurisdiction of the court, then Dongfan, Penghu Island and General Chen's Wuyu Shui Village can be connected to the front line, and from then on, Fujian's inland sea can be safe without worries!..."

Chen Yourong frowned and was about to speak, but Guo Zhiyuan continued passionately as if he knew what he was going to say: "I know the court would not agree to garrison troops in the East Bo. General Chen defeated the Japanese pirates at sea in the 30th year of Wanli and recovered the Japanese pirates. However, the court did not pay any attention to Dongbo. Not only did he not give any credit to General Chen, but he was almost responsible for the blame. After General Chen withdrew from Dongbo, Dongbo was also occupied by Japanese pirates again. The general and his soldiers were all in vain!..."

This was just about the pain of Chen Yourong. At that time, Chen Yourong defeated the Japanese pirates and recovered Dongfan and returned to Fujian. However, what awaited him was "The General Office is for the treasure, and the general is afraid of merits again." If it were not for the help of the then Fujian Governor Zhu Yunchang, Chen Yourong would have been punished. Soon after, Zhu Yunchang, who was grateful to Chen Yourong for his kindness, unfortunately passed away again. Chen Yourong was very sad and asked for his return with articles seven times, but the new Governor Xu Xueju insisted on not allowing him to stay.

So now Chen Yourong was also discouraged at the recovery of Dongfan and sighed, "Since that's the case, why should Lord Guo do this futile act?!..."

Guo Zhiyuan waited for this sentence by Chen Yourong, and waved his hand hard and said, "The court is already corrupt. The ministers in the court only know how to intrigue and form cliques for personal gain. The incompetent people who are in a high position, such as General Chen, cannot be promoted. They are still a small general. If they hope for them, the day when the Ming Dynasty is destroyed is not far away! Although Guo is a small and low-ranking position, he does not want to be with them. A real man has to do something and does something. Since the beginning of his career, Guo has vowed to take the rise and fall of the world as his responsibility. I am determined to win the Dongfan. If General Chen is willing to help me, if he does not help me, he hopes that General Chen will make a living for the people of the world and do not stop me from attacking Dongfan!..."

A glimmer of light flashed in Chen Yourong's eyes. Guo Zhiyuan's words could be considered a rebellious, and they also showed Guo Zhiyuan's ambitions. If they were circulated, they would inevitably cause an uproar. He and Guo Zhiyuan had only met twice, but Guo Zhiyuan said bluntly about the corruption of the court in front of him without any hesitation. He was really a little intimate.

Although Chen Yourong agreed with Guo Zhiyuan's words from the bottom of his heart, Chen Yourong seemed to see his own shadow back then, both passionate and dedicated to serving the country. He also wanted to recover Dongfan and truly include Dongfan in the jurisdiction of the court, but after many years of military career, he told Chen Yourong that things were not as simple as Guo Zhiyuan said. Once Guo Zhiyuan occupied Dongfan, he would inevitably become the target of public criticism and be suppressed by all forces in the court!

Chen Yourong himself deeply understands the cruelty and terribleness of the official struggle. Once you get involved in the official struggle, it will be doomed. No matter how great the merits you make, others can wipe you out all of you with just one word. Even Qi Shuai (Qi Jiguang), whom he admires the most, ended up in a depressed ending?

Thinking of this, Chen Yourong wanted to hit Guo Zhiyuan for a few words. At this time, Chen Di, who was standing aside, suddenly stood up and gave Guo Zhiyuan a thumbs up, "What a real man who has something to do and does something to do! If there are more pillars of Master Guo in the court, why would that be like this? Although I am old and weak, if Lord Guo does not abandon me, I am willing to follow Lord Guo to attack Dongfan!..."

Although Chen Di is not young, his body is very strong. In history, he lived to be 77 years old. In this era, he was a rare long life. Moreover, Chen Di is both civil and military, and is very familiar with the situation of Dongfan. With his help, he is of great help to Guo Zhiyuan to attack Dongfan. More importantly, with the relationship between Chen Di and Shen Yourong, there is great hope of persuading Chen Yourong to send troops. So Guo Zhiyuan was overjoyed when he heard this and laughed: "Mr. Yizhai, don't ruin the boy. Mr. Yizhai is a great talent in the world. He is ambition to help him. The boy cannot ask for anything!"

Chen Yourong couldn't help but smile bitterly. He forgot that there was Chen Di around him. Although Chen Di was much older than him, his passion was even worse than a young man. It was not surprising that he would be encouraged by Guo Zhiyuan. But this happened to him and he was embarrassed. He originally wanted to hit Guo Zhiyuan a few words, but now Chen Di next to him stood on Guo Zhiyuan's side. How could he hit him?

What is even more embarrassing is that everyone knows that he and Chen Di are both teachers and friends. If Chen Di follows Guo Zhiyuan to attack Dongfan, no matter whether he sends troops or not, people will think that he supports Guo Zhiyuan. But Chen Yourong is different from Chen Di after all. Chen Di has retired for many years and is now considered a white civilian. His behavior only represents himself and will not cause too much reaction from the court. Chen Yourong is a serious court general. He sent troops to help Guo Zhiyuan attack Dongfan without the order of his superiors. The nature is different. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is a rebellion!

Chen Di and Shen Yourong are very close to each other, so they naturally know Chen Yourong best. When they see Chen Yourong's expression, they know what he is worried about. Then they look at him and said seriously: "Shihong (Chen Yourong's name is Shihong). I know that you have concerns. What does a real man want in his life? With the military achievements you have made, as long as you are willing to rely on the powerful and nobles of the dynasty, you have already been granted a marquis and a general. But what if you are granted a marquis and a general? Qi Shuai (Qi Jiguang) Yu Shuai (Yu Daqiu) is the best example. No matter how glorious you were in your lifetime, you can only end up with regrets. Do you want to follow in the footsteps?..."
