How should I put this?
What is true may be false, and what is false may be true.
He'd never heard anything like that, a declaration of loyalty.
Before the original owner rebelled, the words of loyalty he spoke to the court were more eloquent than any song could sing.
In the end, they rebelled because they had no other choice.
Although he wrote a letter to clarify his position, saying that he had absolutely not been courted by the Jiangnan court.
But who knows what they were talking about behind the scenes?
What if you pledge your loyalty to yourself on one hand, and then tell the Jinling court on the other that you plan to feign surrender to Li Zicheng when he marches south, and then launch a pincer attack with the court's army from both inside and outside?
They appease both sides and then make further choices based on how the situation develops.
After all, everyone knows in their hearts that neither they nor the other side are loyal subjects.
However, judging from the current situation, we have a firm grasp of the overall trend and an absolute advantage.
If I were to head south, these opportunists might all follow me to Jiangnan to get a share of the pie.

If you can win them over, you can certainly win them over too.
If he can betray the other side, he can certainly betray you too.
My current advantage is simply because I have a strong current momentum.
That's why their influence expanded so quickly.
Only then were those feudal lords and regional governors forced to submit to him and follow him.
It's truly a case of when fortune smiles upon us and heaven and earth lend their support.
He outwardly controlled only three provinces, but two-thirds of the country had already submitted to him due to various circumstances.
This overwhelming trend concealed the fact that he actually only controlled three provinces.
Once he is defeated, the tide will turn, and the other warlords will start to observe again. Only then will his true strength, which only controls three provinces, be revealed.
