Although Jin Xuan didn't know why Liu Wenbing suddenly had murderous intentions, he clearly felt that as long as he said Zheng Sen couldn't be used at this moment, Liu Wenbing would definitely adopt his suggestion and find ways to eliminate Zheng Sen.
And this has nothing to do with Zheng Sen's ability, it's just that they all fought bloody battles for the Ming Dynasty.
Therefore, although Jin Xuan was very dissatisfied with Zheng Sen's domineering attitude, he thought that the other party's naval combat ability would be of great help in the current situation.
Moreover, if Zheng Sen is removed rashly, it will also lead to revenge from the Zheng family in Fujian, which will be detrimental to the overall situation.
So he said in a deep voice: "Although Zheng Sen is a bit domineering, when it comes to fighting alone, he is indeed a rare talent."
"As for his domineering behavior, I don't think he did it deliberately, but rather it was due to lack of education."
"You must know that he was born among pirates and has always believed in the law of survival of the weak. In addition, the five thousand men under his command are far superior to the Jiangnan Navy. It is understandable to behave like this."
"Although such a rebellious person is a thorn in the army and difficult to manage, as long as the general can frighten him and defeat his arrogance, he will definitely swear allegiance to the death..."
Liu Wenbing listened to Jin Xuan's words, the murderous look in his eyes gradually weakened, and his expression became much calmer.
It turned out that Liu Wenbing had just heard Wang Shoulin say that the Jurchen generals were Azig and Duduo, and that they had not yet entered the territory of North Korea and North Korea. He immediately thought that the other party's attack on North Korea and North Korea was just a pretense, and the real purpose might be to invade the south.
Because if the Jurchens wanted to capture North Korea and North Korea, they would have to use their troops quickly and they would never be so grand, lest North Korea and North Korea didn't know about it.
Furthermore, Hauge has always been in tit-for-tat with Dorgon, and he will never be so generous this time. He will not send troops to participate in the carving up of North Korea and North Korea, allowing Dorgon to dominate.
Moreover, Dorgon deliberately showed goodwill to Hauge not long ago, and it is impossible for him to abandon Hauge at this time.
It would be even more unreasonable if the Jurchens did not come to capture North Korea and North Korea, but came to fight Jin Xuan and others.
First of all, this battle is at sea, and the Jurchen cavalry cannot play its role at all.
Secondly, even if Dorgon shows his kindness to Hauge again, it is impossible for him to send out his cronies and leave Hauge's power in Shengjing.
So overall, there is only one possibility, and that is that the Jurchens are determined to be in the capital.
Liu Wenbing believed that Zheng Sen was responsible for inquiring about information and could not be unaware of this, so he became suspicious of Zheng Sen.
You must know that if the capital is besieged by the Jurchens again, and an invincible general emerges from Liaodong, this will definitely not be a blessing for the Ming Dynasty.
In particular, there was a huge force behind this invincible general, and he concealed the news of the Jurchen's southern invasion with ulterior motives.
Therefore, Liu Wenbing just had murderous intent.
But at this moment, after listening to Jin Xuan's words, he knew that Jin Xuan was incapable of making Zheng Sen so presumptuous.
And with Zheng Sen's arrogant temperament, if he knew the news about the Jurchen cavalry, he would not deliberately conceal it.
It seems that Zheng Sen was too proud after his victory and thought that the battlefield was at sea, so he didn't pay much attention to the Jurchen cavalry.
Wanting to understand this, Liu Wenbing remained silent for a while, then looked at Li Guozhen and said, "Marquis Weibei, what do you think of this matter?"
Li Guozhen was also good at understanding people's hearts. When Liu Wenbing had just launched his murderous intention, he had already vaguely guessed the reason.
At this moment, seeing Liu Wenbing's expression softening and his heart becoming more determined, he said not to be outdone: "Jurchens are always cautious when marching, if not for the fact that one of the Jurchen servants has Wang Qianhu's past."
"In addition, after we came to North Korea and North Korea, Wang Qianhu opened up the information channels between the Jurchens and North Korea and North Korea. It is impossible for him to get this news, so I feel that Zheng Sen should not know about this."
"But even if Zheng Sen doesn't know about it, it means that he is not capable enough to lead the army, so the top priority is to take back the military power..."
As Li Guozhen spoke, he hurriedly stopped talking, glanced at Jin Xuan, and then continued: "Hold it together, after all, the Jurchens are coming fiercely, and we can no longer divide our troops to fight."
"Furthermore, judging from the troops commanded by Azig and Duduo, it is very likely that the Jurchens are going to invade the south. We should send someone to send a message to His Majesty immediately to avoid falling into the opponent's plan."
Hearing this, Liu Wenbing looked at Wang Shoulin and said: "Wang Qianhu, you have done a great job in seeing through the opponent's conspiracy this time. After this battle is over, I will definitely ask for credit from Your Majesty on your behalf!"
Wang Shoulin stood up in a hurry, even saying he didn't dare.
After Liu Wenbing praised Wang Shoulin, he looked at Li Guozhen and said: "Marquis Weibei and the Jurchen Waterway are now developing at the same time. The scale is unprecedented. There must be many mistakes and omissions during this period."
"Especially the Jurchens have always been weak in naval battles. This time the navy is almost out, and the territory must be empty."
"And their move also has the intention of attracting our navy to North Korea and North Korea, so I want you to take two thousand navy and rush to Jurchen quietly."
"First, let's find out the other party's truth and confirm their true purpose."
"Secondly, if Jurchen really wants to invade the south and see if he can cause some trouble for them, it would be best to burn his food and grass. This can also buy some time for Your Majesty."
Hearing this, Li Guozhen said with some hesitation: "The Jurchens have always sent out troops with light cavalry and stealth, and fought to support the war. Burning grain and grass may not be feasible."
Liu Wenbing shook his head and said: "The Jurchens are spending so much time this time because they must want to take advantage of the battle between our army and the Li thieves. Therefore, their ambitions this time should be very high and they will never move in a hurry."
"Although Wu Sangui is not in Shanhaiguan now, Gao Di still has 10,000 or 20,000 men. It will not be easy for the Jurchens to capture Shanhaiguan."
"If they don't attack Shanhaiguan and attack Datong, Xuanfu and other places, they will also not be able to succeed in a short time, so they will definitely have no shortage of food and grass this time."
Li Guozhen said thoughtfully: "Dong An, do you think it is possible that the Jurchens invaded from Shaanxi?"
Liu Wenbing was silent for a while and said: "This matter should be impossible. You must know that Niu Jinxing has previously aroused public anger due to his affair with the Jurchens. Now that Li Thief has retreated to Shaanxi, he will never do such outrageous things at this time. "
Li Guozhen nodded and said: "Okay, in that case, I will follow Duke An's instructions and go to Jurchen..."
"No, Marquis Weibei, you cannot go to Jurchen!"
Liu Wenbing suddenly interrupted Li Guozhen's words loudly and said apologetically: "I was anxious just now and didn't think well. Please forgive me, Marquis Weibei."
"You must know that this is my first time to go to sea, and I am not familiar with naval battles. However, you have traveled to Jurchen, North Korea, North Korea and other places for many days, and you are more familiar with the situation in the two places than I am, so you should stay and help me!"
"As for the matter of going to the Jurchens, let Wang Qianhu and Li Sanbao handle it!"
"Because it's great to see this succeed, but it doesn't matter if it fails. After all, our top priority is to gain an advantage in the naval battle so that North Korea and North Korea will not dare to act rashly!"
Li Guozhen was a little surprised at first, but after listening to Liu Wenbing's explanation, he readily accepted it.
Liu Wenbing felt relieved when he saw Li Guozhen's expression.
It turned out that he did intend to let Li Guozhen go to Jurchen at first, but when he saw Li Guozhen showing hesitation, he felt uneasy.
Later, after listening to Li Guozhen's reasons, Liu Wenbing felt that he didn't know the military and was worried that letting him go would miss important events.
Then he thought that Zhu Yuanzhang never let Li Guozhen lead the troops independently despite the lack of generals. It must be because he found that he only had eloquence and no actual combat ability, so Liu Wenbing changed his mind temporarily.
But Li Guozhen was also a marquis after all, so he had to make up a bunch of reasons to appease the other party.
At this moment, Liu Wenbing saw that Li Guozhen believed it, and he was even more convinced of his judgment.
On the pretext of dividing the troops, he took Wang Shoulin and Li Sanbao out of the cabin, explained in detail the key points and importance of the battle, and then watched them leave.
"Mr. An Guo, you originally only had 3,000 people on this trip, but now you ask Wang Qianhu to take away 2,000 people. Is the force too thin?"
At this time, Li Guozhen, who walked out of the cabin, looked at Wang Shoulin and others walking away, feeling worried.
Hearing this, Liu Wenbing smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, this battle is more about wits than strength. We will see how we can act accordingly!"
As he said this, he saw Jin Xuan walking out and took the opportunity to ask him about the situation in the army.
It wasn't until he got the information he wanted to know that he ordered his soldiers to set sail and sail toward Seoul.
