Chapter 217 The various feudal lords expressed their willingness to "advise" His Majesty.



Especially the phrase "the ruler and his subjects are one body," which has two completely different meanings.

One option is that after you persuade His Majesty, he will no longer be suspicious of me, and we can work together to assist His Majesty, becoming one as ruler and subject.

Another point is that after you persuade the emperor to abdicate in favor of me, we, as ruler and subject, will be one.

Li Qin's last words were a promise to everyone in front of him.

You bad guys won't get away with this for nothing.

I guarantee that once I become emperor, you will all be eligible to be granted the titles of king or duke.

After Li Qin finished speaking, he picked up his wine glass and said:

"Let me toast everyone."

Just after Li Qin finished speaking, a burst of cannon fire was heard outside.

Everyone present was startled by the sudden sound of the cannon.

Li Qin knew that it had begun.

He then stepped out of the tent and saw that Li Xuanshang had already begun shelling on the river in the distance.

At this time, many of the boats that were originally crossing the river had been capsized.

Many prisoners of war wearing his army uniforms have fallen into the river.

The ship that suffered the most damage was the large ship that flew his command flag.

At this point, it was also beginning to teeter on the brink of collapse due to the shelling.

With the second round of shelling, it sank completely.

Upon witnessing this scene, the Huai Army he had arranged along the riverbank immediately descended into chaos.

After witnessing this scene, Li Qin looked towards the distance of the Yangtze River, waiting for Zheng Chenggong's navy to appear.

Shortly after the incident, someone immediately reported everything that happened by the river to Zheng Chenggong.

After hearing that the ship flying Li Qin's flag had been sunk, Li's army north of the river was thrown into chaos.

He immediately ordered his troops to sail upstream to the Jinling River basin to cooperate with Li Xuanshang in attacking Li Qin's army.

Their navy then began to sail upstream along the south bank of the Yangtze River, as agreed.

After Li Qin seized control of both banks of the Yangtze River, he set up artillery on both banks in some narrow sections of the river, effectively blocking it.

The artillery on the south bank was under Li Xuanshang's control, and he had already contacted Li Xuanshang beforehand.

Li Xuanshang, who controlled Jiangnan, assured him that the artillery on the south bank would absolutely not fire.

Tell him to stay on the south bank, where the artillery on the north bank won't be able to hit him.

After seeing that the artillery positions on the south bank had indeed not fired.

Zheng Chenggong immediately ordered the navy to advance at full speed.
