Zhu Youjian: Taizu has an order! kill!

"That sounds good."

"Then I'll add one more thing."

"The focus of looting must be on those landowners and merchants."

"Rich people in the Ming Dynasty liked to hide their money in the ground."

"After being caught, they should be tortured a lot and try to take out as much money as possible."

"Remember, every time you destroy a village, you weaken Ming's strength."

"Although the impact is not big, there is a saying that a little makes a lot."

"When the number increases, it may be the last straw that breaks the Ming Dynasty."

"Whether Japan can take over the Ming Dynasty depends on you."

After hearing this, Tokugawa Iemitsu looked at the map carefully.

Then he opened his mouth to remind.

The plan is quite good. As long as it is executed well, it will definitely disrupt peace in the Ming Dynasty.

At that time, we will cooperate with the Qing Dynasty to bleed the Ming Dynasty from two directions.

It may not be possible to trip this behemoth!

"Hi!"

Seeing that Tokugawa Iemitsu had no objection, Tokugawa Youmaru quickly lowered his head and agreed.

He knew this was his last chance.

If he can achieve results, he can still keep his position as the leader of the fleet.

Otherwise...

Just wait to apologize for committing seppuku!

-----------------------------

At this time, in Fuzhou.

Qi Daguang and others were also having a meeting with Zu Dashou in the room.

They knew that the Japanese country would not retreat easily.

Xu Xinsu's surprise attack can only be used as a surprise attack, and it cannot be successful every time.

"Japan suffered a loss this time, and I'm afraid it will happen again soon."

"Fortunately, within seven days at most, all the surrounding valleys can be harvested."

"According to your Majesty's instructions, the people can be moved into the city after the grain is harvested."

"It is basically impossible for the Japanese country to support war through war."

Zu Dashou pointed at the map and quickly explained the current situation.

In order to speed up the harvest, they paid to hire people from the mainland to help with the harvest.

Just to harvest the millet as well as possible in a hurry.

And everyone from all over the country has been notified.

Tell the people that the Japanese pirates are about to invade in large numbers, in order to ensure their safety.

The imperial court would use money to purchase the grain in their hands from various places.

And they were moved to towns with a monthly subsidy of three taels of silver per person.

If the house is destroyed, the government will provide additional compensation.

Zu Dashou probably figured out what to do if all the villagers along the coast were to be moved inward.

The number of people affected is approximately 20.

The imperial court spent 60 taels per month on subsidies alone!

Simply terrifying!

"There is no other way. His Majesty loves the people as his own son and is definitely not willing to watch the people suffer."

"And I heard that His Majesty has sixty or seventy million taels of silver in his purse alone. If that's true, then there will be no problem in sustaining the situation."

"Without the common people, if the Japanese country dares to come to this land a hundred miles along the coast, they will be killed right here!"

"We must give them a head-on blow!"

Qi Daguang touched his chin and his tone was a little serious.

He has heard about the expenses of the imperial court, they are not ordinary!

Now there is a big hole in the south that needs financial subsidies.

If the effect cannot be achieved quickly, let Japan go away.

Qi Daguang was really worried that it would bring down the Ming Dynasty's economy.

"Brother, why did I hear that Your Majesty has tens of millions of silver..."

"This monthly expenditure of 60 seems to be nothing."

Qifeng on the side tilted his head in confusion.

60 sounds like a lot, but His Majesty’s wallet is not an ordinary drum.

Even if you play for a year, it will only be less than 800 million...

"You know a hammer!"

When Qi Daguang heard this, he slapped him on the head with his backhand without thinking.

"We tens of thousands of people don't want to eat, right?"

"Zheng Zhilong fired the shells for free?"

“Are the forts along the coast growing out of the ground?”

"Have you understood the military strategy at home?"

"Just to maintain the overall situation on our side, the imperial court will need to budget upwards of 100 million yuan per month as a guarantee!"

"And do you know how much the Four Elephant Corps' annual military expenses are?"

"Even if His Majesty really has ten million taels, he can hold up to the sky for two years."

"So this Japanese country must be destroyed as soon as possible!"

It’s not just the expenses incurred by the people.

As soon as the army comes out, it is a beast that swallows gold.

Grain, grass and ammunition all drained the Ming Dynasty's treasury.

Even if His Majesty's money bag is bottomless, it will be empty one day.

So we must not delay it!

Be quick!

"Yes, the Four Elephants Army has huge expenses."

"And the court is still building roads, which is another huge expense."

"We need to end the battle in the south quickly."

"Qi Daguang, since you are a descendant of Qi Jiguang, you must be very familiar with the Japanese country."

"In this case, you see how we will fight next."

Zu Dashou also sighed with some emotion.

He heard from acquaintances in the court that the current finances of the Ming Dynasty were entirely supported by His Majesty.

Although I don't know how much money that man has in his hands, you can't always think for the best when fighting a war.

Solve it as soon as possible.

He still trusts Qi Daguang.

After all, she is from a famous family, and her ancestors are good at killing Japanese pirates.

You are right to ask him about this!

"Forehead..."

"I do have a plan."

"In this way, I will tell you and everyone will analyze it."

Qi Daguang touched his head in embarrassment upon hearing this.

After thinking for a moment, he coughed and said.

His ancestors were awesome, but he didn't dare to be arrogant.

If carelessness leads to defeat, then he will really be shameless in going to see his ancestors.

"Your Majesty has created an excellent combat environment for us by gathering the people."

"There is no need to take care of the people in places hundreds of miles from the coast inward."

"In this case, my suggestion is to spread out the defense and set up three lines of defense."

"The first one is the fort on the shore. General Zu will be in charge of it."

"You are from Liaodong and are very good at building fortresses."

"The number of this defense line does not need to be large, as long as it can cooperate with Zheng Zhilong to suppress the Japanese fleet and dock."

"As for the second line of defense, I will be responsible for setting up hundreds of small strongholds in the mountains and forests between Fuzhou and Hangzhou."

"These large strongholds are stationed with 500 people, and the small ones are stationed with hundreds of people. They are the horns of each other."

"The main purpose is to occupy the surrounding dangerous high ground first! Then transport the cannon up."

"Then the stationed teams will patrol around their respective strongholds."

"They use smoke or drums to convey information to each other."

"As for the third line of defense, it is established in the rear area and is responsible for providing logistics and troop replenishment for the first and second lines of defense."

"At the same time, prevent small groups of Japanese pirates from infiltrating."

"This third line of defense must also be spread out and stationed in the villages."

"The number of Japanese pirates who can penetrate the third line of defense will certainly not be too large."

"They don't have the ability to attack cities, so they can only attack villages."

"Saving the village is equivalent to cutting off their last hope."

"Anyway, we have enough space, so let's put it in and fight!"

"My Qi family army is not good at anything else, but in small-scale mountain combat, I can beat the shit out of the Japanese country!"

After Qi Daguang finished speaking, a trace of confidence appeared on his face.

If you don't have enough troops, just wait for work.

If the Japanese want to plunder, they must land.

In this case, I will wait in the mountains.

All the artillery, crossbows, traps and traps have been set up and are waiting for them to come!

Anyway, there are no ordinary people in this hundred-mile boundary, so just take your time.
