Chapter 148 Complaining too much
"Yes, the Ming army's combat power is too strong. It was originally evenly matched, but now there is a mobile force like Shi Lang. If Zhu Youlang cannot be captured, we have little chance of winning. But Heng Jiu, what do you think Shi Lang will do next?" Jiergalang did not have the ability to read the mind, so he naturally could not understand Hong Chengchou's inner language and said in accordance with his words.
"Prince, Shi Lang's mobile power has three directions next. One is to return to the South China Sea to reinforce Guangzhou at any time; the second is to go north, enter the Yangtze River, and attack Nanzhili regardless of everything to achieve the goal of besieging Wei and saving Zhao; the third is to go ashore from Funing, reinforce Li Chengdong, attack Quzhou, and then attack Zhili from land north."
"From the current situation, the road to reinforce Li Chengdong is too stupid, and Zhu Youlang will not let him do this; the possibility of going north to attack Nanzhili is not high, because Li Chengdong and Li Dingguo's attack were blocked, and it seemed a bit too weak to fight Nanzhili with just one of his 100,000 navy troops. It is more likely to return to the South China Sea, because our army has encircled Ji'an and has already put pressure on Guangzhou."
Hong Chengchou analyzed.
"It's winter now, and the north wind is prevalent. If they return to Guangzhou at full speed, they will probably arrive in one and a half months. And it will be difficult for us to encircle Guangzhou within two months, so we must find a way to stop him from returning to the South China Sea." Jiergalang said.
"Yes, the prince, the servant thinks so too. He would rather let him fight Nanzhili than let him return to the South China Sea. Even if Nanjing is lost, it would be fine. As long as we catch Zhu Youlang, the Ming army will be in chaos without a leader. What's more, as long as we shoot Guangzhou, we can master the technology of the Ming army to make grenades. By then, are we still afraid that we can't defeat the Ming army?" Hong Chengchou said.
"Yes, Zhu Youlang is the soul, and grenades and landmines are the weapons they rely on in war. As long as they catch Zhu Youlang and then capture their weapons, the Ming army will be ineffective!" Jiergalang agreed with Hong Chengchou's idea.
"Heng Jiu, why is it impossible? The personnel you arranged in Guangzhou must not be exposed." Jiergalang said again.
"Don't worry, the prince is important, it's important, and the servants can save it."
"Also, let Qian Qianyi find a way to promote Shi Lang to go north, and let Oboi temporarily suspend the attack on Ji'an. After Shi Lang goes north, he will then make him attack fiercely, take it down in one fell swoop, and then quickly complete the siege of Ganzhou and approach Guangzhou."
"twitter!"
...
The news of the victory in the East China Sea was published in the form of a special issue by the "Ming Ming Weekly" under the title "Jinghai Bo's Skill to Defeat the East China Sea Monsters' Atmosphere for a Day and Night".
The report details how Shi Lang used the plan to use the auspicious army, divided his troops and detoured behind enemy lines, and wiped out the Qing Beiyang Navy.
The report is half text and half white, which is very labor-saving to read, and the author's writing is extraordinary, and he writes the entire battle process ups and downs, which is heart-wrenching.
The author is newspaper reporter Qu Zhengbo.
Qu Zhengbo is the son of Qu Shixi. Last month, the Imperial College Entrance Examination was ranked first by the examiner Wang Fuzhi.
After Qu Zhengbo entered prison, he studied and applied for a job as a reporter at the newspaper.
Of course, he did not go to the Fujian front line for an interview. He only learned about this report based on the imperial court report, and stopped the soldiers who were the navy, the Fujian Governor's Office, and the Fujian Dusi Sanba, and learned about the battle from them.
Not only that, he also used his identity as the son of the Qu family to interview Chen Jitai, the Minister of the Military Affairs Department.
Chen Jitai was very proud of himself. In the battle of the East China Sea, not only did his son-in-law's country become more stable, but his two sons also made contributions. His second son Zhongwu also rewarded the count like him.
Each family, one imperial concubine, two earls and one governor, and his Chen family is the best family in the world.
Qu Zhengbo came to interview him and was scratching his itchy flesh, so he boasted about how the emperor made plans and how the Military Affairs Office dispatched it from the decision-making level.
The text of the Dibao is difficult to understand. There is no problem for the scholars and officials to read it, but the ink is not much difficult to understand and difficult to understand. If someone reads the newspaper, the people will be even more like listening to the heavenly books.
So, Qu Zhengbo took a unique approach and wrote this report in half-text and half-white language.
After writing, he asked his father Qu Shisi and Wang Fuzhi, the Imperial College Priest, to read it. After the two felt that there was no problem, they reported it to the editor-in-chief of the newspaper, Guizhuang.
Guizhuang himself has a strange temper. When he saw this kind of text, he was very down-to-earth, and he was so happy that he didn't change a word and immediately published a special issue.
As soon as the newspaper came out, Guangzhou was in full swing.
The people rushed to tell each other and celebrated each other. In particular, the farmers, industry and commercial soldiers who benefited the most from the new policy, even a stone fell to the ground. The depression and concerns caused by the Qing soldiers' invasion were all gone with this report.
Many shops lit firecrackers and fireworks, and some people spontaneously went to the palace to kneel down and shouted "Long live".
Zhu Youlang and the civil and military officials of the court were very excited.
Those who are unhappy are just a few people.
Among these people are Qian Qianyi and Yang Huiyi.
Qian Qianyi felt incredible when he received this news, and he couldn't help but scold Liu Qingtai and Zheng Zhibao as "stupid"!
With so many favorable conditions, he was defeated so much. He was so stupid that he was so stupid that he was in his grandma's house.
I felt depressed and could not be revealed in the Military Affairs Office, so I could only appear in a cheerful manner, which made him feel so irritated.
It’s like an actor who died of his parents. He was originally extremely sad and wanted to play an extremely happy role. If this huge emotional contrast is not vented, how can he not cause internal injuries?
After finally getting home, he called Qian Zhong into the study and scolded Liu Qingtai and Zheng Zhibao in front of Qian Zhong!
It was not until the scolding came soon that I felt the depression in my heart calmed down a little.
"It's so exciting to scold you. You can continue acting tomorrow." Qian Qianyi drank tea, moistening his voice, and thought to himself.
"Master, Master Hong Feige delivers a letter. Please try to trap Shi Lang's navy in the East China Sea. If it really doesn't work, let him go north to attack Nanzhili. You must never let him return to the South China Sea." Seeing that Qian Qian was calm, Qian Zhong reported carefully.
"Bo!" Qian Qianyi put the teacup on the table and said angrily: "Is it useful? Ah? Is it useful?! I tried my best to follow his instructions and transferred Shi Lang to the East China Sea. What was the result? They didn't even save a single hair, but instead completely destroyed the Beiyang Navy in one day and night! A group of stupid talents! I have done a good job? The Ming army was completely following Lord Hong's command. What if they met a group of stupid talents?"
"Even if the goal is achieved and Shi Lang goes north, will he lose Nanzhili in a few months?"
"Master, don't be angry. Now that things have come to this point, it's useless to complain. You'd better follow Mr. Hong's instructions."
