Chapter 460 The Undercurrent of Calmness(2/2)

I think that with so much effort and mobilization, it is still difficult to touch their roots..."

Chen Xuan smiled bitterly and said: "The official thinks that it is impossible to destroy them at sea. It is impossible now. In the future, we will build more sea-going ships that can sail thousands of miles. It is also impossible. And on land, it is impossible for us to station troops everywhere along the coast.

The terrain is complex, the villages are simple, and they cannot build forts to accommodate the people like some places in the northwest, and create a solid wall to clear the country. If a hundred of them come out, even if only one of them returns alive with looted property, they can attract a thousand more people to join the sea.

The ranks of the bandits are like weeds and cannot be killed!"

Qiu Fu sneered: "One will kill one, two will kill a pair, how many people can they have?"

Qiu Fu joined the army since he was a child and was a martial artist who did not study. However, Chen Xuan was a Confucian general. Hearing this, he felt angry and replied calmly: "Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty conquered the country in three expeditions, which is not defeat.

In Yu's hands, it was because the war was protracted, the people lost time to cultivate crops, and the army was raised year after year, and the corvee was endless, so that the Eighteenth Route Army rebelled against the king and destroyed the Sui Dynasty. The governor, Chen Xuan, was a warrior and was not afraid of war. The Japanese were poor beggars and were not afraid.

It’s a hassle, but the tens of millions of people in the Ming Dynasty can’t afford it!”

Qiu Fu said angrily: "According to your statement, isn't there nothing we can do against them?"

Chen Xuan was silent for a moment and said: "Last time when the auxiliary minister recruited pirates from Anshuang Island, he discussed with his subordinates about the Japanese pirates in the East China Sea..."

He glanced at Qiu Fu and saw that Qiu Fu had no objection, so he said: "The Duke of Fu Guo believes that the Japanese pirates have emerged. If we want to completely annihilate them, we must build a powerful fleet and use force to deter them, so that we can pursue trade with China."

demand, use soft and hard measures to force them to cooperate, so that the Japanese pirates have no place to gain a foothold. In this way, even if there are remnants, it is unlikely to become a serious problem.

However, Duke Fu also said that blocking is worse than sparing. Even with this method, it can only eliminate temporary troubles. Over time, Japanese pirates will inevitably rise again because of their own interests. Not to mention that there are pirates in the South China Sea now. , the armed ships are more powerful than our navy. They are not Japanese, but remnants of our country. However, they are also causing trouble, intruding on our coastal residents, burning, killing, looting, and doing all kinds of evil.

The Duke of Fu said that the combination of kindness and power only forces all parties to cooperate and makes pirates desperate. If we want to truly eliminate the disaster, we must draw out the bottom line. If our country can open the sea for trade, it will benefit all the people, but pirates will always face destruction.

If the risk is high, then between making a lot of money and making a lot of money without money, most pirates are still willing to put down their swords and guns and become obedient people, which is also beneficial to the country and the people."

Qiu Fu saw that he kept talking about Yang Xu and seemed to admire Yang Xu very much, and he was secretly angry.

There is no need to mention the little bastard Xu Jingchang, who only followed Yang Xu and waved the flag and shouted, which made him lose face. Zhu Neng, that old bastard, had people riding on his head and shit on him, but he still wanted to give it to him.

In order to save face, he rushed to the banquet. Now this Chen Xuan, it is hard to figure out whether he is from the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion or from Yang Xu.

Qiu Fu held back his anger and asked: "Captain Chen, are you a warrior or a minister? Yang Xu has never led a single soldier. Does he know soldiers? Does he understand military affairs? These ideas are just human rhetoric. If every time

We have such means to deal with enemies on the border, so what do we, generals, need to do?"

Qiu Fu is just a simple warrior. He only thinks about how to win, but does not think about the purpose of war. Therefore, it is difficult to focus on solutions other than war. After scolding Chen Xuan, Qiu Fu

He said decisively: "Haven't the thieves of Shuangyu Island Group been recruited by the imperial court? If you are to earn the imperial salary, you have to work for the imperial court!

We now have three guard posts in the East China Sea, with the ability to go out to sea to fight. The three guards are at the horns of each other. They can advance, attack, retreat or defend. With the shabby warships owned by the Japanese and almost no long-range weapons, once at sea,

Are you still worried about not being able to annihilate them after encountering them? As for the land, I will make arrangements properly. Unless they don't come, I will tell them to never come back!"

Qiu Fu punched the commander's case hard, looked at Chen Xuan and said, "You said, the Japanese often take advantage of the spring and autumn floods to invade our coast. In winter, they won't come, right?"

Chen Xuan said: "That's not the case. In winter, the Japanese are also capable of fighting, but there are much fewer Japanese pirates than in spring and autumn. However, those who can still come to our coast to cause trouble in winter are not ordinary rabbles. Their

The ships are more sophisticated and the bandits are more powerful in force, so although the number is smaller than in the Spring and Autumn, it is not difficult to deal with."

Qiu Fu smiled coldly, raised his gray eyebrows, and said, "Okay! I'll try my sword on them first!"

Ming'er sat on the brocade pier, leaning on the table with her elbows, holding her chin in her hands, her eyes half open and half closed, and between opening and closing, her eyes were watering.

Only if you see her eyes at this moment will you understand what it means to be charming.

The Queen is hosting a banquet in the palace for the second-rank officials and above, the Dukes and Countesses, and the princesses who live in the Tenth Prince's Palace. Because they are all daughter's family, there are more varieties of wine, most of which are fruit wine, such as wine, perry wine,

Jujube wine, coconut wine, even Wujiapi wine, peach wine, persimmon wine, etc.

Ming'er didn't know how to drink at first, but when she saw other people drinking happily, and saw that the top-quality grape wine from Harahuo was mellow and bright, with attractive colors, she couldn't bear the instigation of those ladies and rich ladies, so she took a drink.

...I got drunk after just one cup. I stroked my cheek gently, and my cheeks felt feverish, and my head felt dizzy.

The Queen couldn't help but laugh when she saw her sister's naive appearance. She quickly heard someone help her to rest in her palace. Ming'er was already quite drunk, but for some reason, she didn't want to sleep when she got here. She held her chin and was confused for a while, unable to help herself.

I suddenly thought of my plan. This is a good opportunity. My sister will be back soon. I...can I ask her to help?

Thinking of this, her body suddenly became hotter and hotter, "Little girl, I am shameless when I miss a man!" Ming'er bit her lip, two intoxicating blushes appeared on her cheeks, it seemed... even hotter!
