Domineering Daming

He looked at Zhu Xu's gloomy and indifferent expression, stepped forward and said softly: "Your Majesty, if you don't want to go out for a walk, there are still many places in Fujian that you can visit again."

Zhu Xu looked up at him, knowing what he meant, waved his hands and said, "It's no use going anywhere, you go, I'll sleep for a while."

It's strange to be able to sleep.

Cao Huachun knew his pressure in his heart, hesitated for a while, and retreated.

Zhu Xu lay reclined on the soft bed, and took a deep breath, as if wanting to spit out all the stale air in his heart.

"Don't let me down..." Zhu Xu murmured, closing his eyes to avoid his restless mood.

Zhu Xu's mind was groggy, and he really fell asleep. After he woke up, it was already the next day.

"Why didn't you wake me up, what's the situation now?" Zhu Xu jumped up from the slump, without caring about anything else, he rushed out and glared at Cao Huachun.

Cao Huachun quickly bowed and said: "Your Majesty, don't worry, there is no war."

Zhu Xu rubbed his face and said, "Specifically."

"Yes."

Cao Huachun knew that Zhu Xu was in a hurry, so he said quickly, "Flanger is still hovering in the sea and has not moved. The red-haired man has reached the Penghu Islands less than fifty miles away, and has not moved yet."

Zhu Xu pressed his temples with both hands, forcing himself to calm down.

Calculate the time, it is indeed about the same.

Zhu Xu let out a breath, turned around and went back, while washing his face, he said, "What's the arrangement for the navy?"

Cao Huachun followed in and said: "The Danshui City has already been settled, and the Penghu side has already made arrangements. There is no need to make more arrangements. The navy is also blocking the sea lanes to prevent the news from leaking. It's just that the Fran robot has been staying at sea without any movement. Lord Xiong, King Tang speculates that they may be planning to attack the interior, so they have been watching."

Zhu Xu wiped his face with a towel, feeling quite refreshed. After thinking for a while, he said, "Well, keep watching, and let me know if there is any situation."

"Yes!" Cao Huachun said.

Zhu Xu let out another long breath, feeling uneasy and unable to concentrate on doing anything.

Standing at the same spot, hesitating for a while, he still said: "Go, let's go for a walk."

Cao Huachun followed Zhu Xu, walking slowly along the cement road of the base.

He looked at Zhu Xu's thoughts, thought for a while, and said, "Your Majesty, Cao Zongbing has already gone south and is expected to arrive in two days. The affairs of the Wa Kingdom have basically been dealt with, and the 3 troops prepared by the Ministry of War People will arrive in three days, and Ma Yuan has already arrived in Fujian and is handing over to Yu Anxing."

Zhu Xu listened, and said casually: "The [-] will be handed over to Yu Anxing for training. Cao Wenzhao will go south alone, and take the king's order to mobilize ships and cannons from all over the world. I want [-] ships and [-] cannons!"

Cao Huachun was stunned, and said: "Your Majesty, are you transferred from the Military Weapons Bureau?" Now the Military Weapons Bureau can produce [-] destroying barbarians every year, and Fujian can't mobilize such a large number around.

Zhu Xu waved his hand and said: "It's too late, I ordered Cao Wenzhao to figure it out. Tell Yu Anxing that the 3 people should be formed as soon as possible, and I will be of great use."

"Follow the order." Cao Huachun said.

Chapter 748

More than 50 ships of Putmans stopped fifty miles away from the Penghu Islands, watching with binoculars.

Beside him stood two young men, both with the ranks of majors on their shoulders, and they were also watching.

After an unknown amount of time, one of the majors said, "Your Excellency, the distance between Chixian City and Penghu is too close."

The other continued: "That's right, there seem to be troops stationed on Penghu, and it will be very troublesome if we cooperate with the outside."

Putmans put down the binoculars and said, "One Dutch soldier is worth thirty Ming troops. Get ready. Let's go directly to Chixian City."

The two majors were named Pross and Barisa, and both of them frowned.

Pross said: "Your Excellency, this is too risky, and you will be attacked."

Balisa also said: "Your Excellency, Penghu is a good place. It can be attacked or defended. If there is wind and rain, you can also take shelter temporarily."

Putmans shook his head and said: "You don't understand, the Ming people are weaker than the aborigines in other places, they don't care about here, instead of wasting time in Penghu, it is better to force them to surrender directly, they will be more obedient than the aborigines in other places .”

Pross and Barisa looked at each other and shrugged.

"Red Embedded City."

Putmans turned his gaze to the direction of Taiwan, and said with a blank expression.

Following his order, the fleet began to turn, heading straight for the hinterland of southern Taiwan.

At present, there is only one area with Chixian City as the core that has been reclaimed in southern Taiwan. Anping City is on the big island outside and is the military center in the south. It faces Chixian City across the river. The embedded city will be very fast.

Pross has done his homework and has no opinion. In his opinion, this is the best way. It is the best way to take down the hinterland of the Ming people and force the general to surrender.

But Balisa said: "Your Excellency, I suggest capturing Anping City first. As long as their will to resist is defeated, other places will follow the wind."

Putmans showed no expression, and said, "You don't understand the Ming people. Their heads must be in Chixian City, not Anping City. As long as Chixian City is taken down, they will definitely surrender obediently."

Prouss, Barisa naturally didn't have time to study the Ming Dynasty, and they all showed indifferent expressions when they heard the words.

Putmans stood on the largest battleship Hector, looking in the direction of Taiwan, with an imperceptible smile on the corner of his mouth.

Putmans' fleet acted as if no one was watching, and Shi Shiran passed between Penghu and Taiwan, heading straight for Chikan City.

Zheng Zhilong from Penghu saw all this scene, his face was livid and his eyes were burning with anger!

A school lieutenant stood beside him, equally resentful, and said loudly: "My lord, the red-haired ghost has bullied me too much, and the general is willing to take orders to help and destroy the red-haired ghost at sea!"

Zheng Zhilong held the binoculars, watched them pass by, and said with a sneer, "No, I will go in person. The order is that Penghu will keep its doors closed and not attack. Call all the warships, and I will fight in person!"

There were three school lieutenants beside him, and they were shocked when they heard the words, one of them said: "No, my lord! Master Xiong has repeatedly ordered that Penghu must not be lost!"

"Yes, my lord, how can we do it without you in charge?"

Zheng Zhilong waved his hand and said in a deep voice: "Chixian City has only 2000 people, and the army is stationed in Anping City, and there are no ships. If the red-haired ghosts directly attack Chixian City, Anping City will not be able to rescue them in time. Now only I can support them. "

Everyone frowned when they heard this, and looked embarrassed.

What Zheng Zhilong said was correct. To support Chixian City from Anping City, you can't go to the Neijiang River, you can only go around, but for too long, Chixian City may not be able to hold it.If Chixian City falls, half of the battle will be lost.But what if this is to divert the tiger away from the mountain, or to lure the Penghu naval battle?The real purpose of the red-haired people is what to do in Penghu?

A school captain expressed this concern. After all, Penghu's position is too important. It can be advanced, attacked, retreated, and defended, and it can also attack Taiwan. There is no reason not to attack Penghu first.

Zheng Zhilong also had this concern, but Chixian City had to support him. He pondered for a while and said, "I lead a navy of 2000 people to sea, and 3000 people to defend the city. Remember, keep your doors closed and don't go to war! Penghu is fully prepared for battle, and there is no problem in defending it! Moreover, I don't believe that my Ming Dynasty's navy will be inferior to those broken ships of the red-haired ghost!"

Ming Dynasty's navy is all organized, warships are warships, fully equipped, and sharp artillery. On the other hand, the Dutch, more than half of them are merchant ships. Except for a few large ships, the others are very ordinary!

After much thought and thought, everyone had to agree with Zheng Zhilong's battle plan. Now only Penghu has the ability to support Chixian City.

Forty warships were stationed in Penghu, three of which were medium ships, and the others were small ships. Zheng Zhilong mobilized them, and then set off, quietly following behind the Dutch.
