Chapter XXI: Operational Meetings

After a sumptuous sea lunch, the captains and captains of the ship, as well as the police commissioners, police instructors, and police instructors who were with them, took the sampan and gathered in the large conference room on the top floor of the flagship stern building to participate in the combat meeting of the 'punishment operation'.

More than a hundred police officers packed a large conference room and whispered to a large map of Japan on the wall.

"This little demon in the temple is windy, and there are many shallow kings." Haierdi looked at the small pieces of paper plastered with maps, densely packed with family crests and power names, and felt that he was about to commit a dense phobia.

"yes, it's going to be two or three hundred, right?" Next to him, a man named Xin Fei, is the captain of the 202 ship.

He and the Haier brothers, as well as the captain of the 203 ship, Rong Sheng, the captain of the 204 ship, Xiang Xuehai, the captain of the 205 ship, and Xue Hua, the captain of the 205 ship, were the 'rudder' of the six warships of the Qi family's army, that is, the captain.

After the victory of the anti-Japanese war, Qi Dashuai went north to deal with the Tartars, and the Ming army did not have a special sailor, so the six of them were completely useless, and they were all depressed for several years in the Jiangsu and Zhejiang capital guards. As a result, he was recruited by Jinke Wang Rulong one by one and provoked the pillars of the coast guard.

According to the regulations, the captain of a medium-sized ship shall be awarded the rank of junior police inspector and shall be hung with a silver star. But Zhao Gongzi specially approved the six of them to be awarded intermediate police inspectors and hung two silver stars. For this reason, Zhao Gongzi, who pays special attention to standardization, also set up a special position for them, called 'Coach Captain', and let them be responsible for passing on the rest of the captains.

Therefore, the captains present are all younger brothers, and they can only listen to a few of their old drivers working there in vain.

"Who are the Japanese who invaded in the first place?" Rong Sheng greets the memory of the item learning Haidao.

"Higo, Satsuma, and Nagato have the most." Xiang Xuehai immediately said: "Secondly, there are also places such as Osumi, Chikuzen, Chikugo, Bode, Hinata, Settsu, and Yiji. By the way, what other ...... of Bunzen, Bungo, and Izumi are there?"

These are all confessions he received when he interrogated the Japanese prisoners, and it is difficult for him to remember it clearly after so many years.

Most of the captains had heard of these place names, and at that time they only felt that they were far away from each other by the ocean, and they couldn't reach it even if they wanted to retaliate.

Who Cheng thought that after leaving the Qi family's army, he could get his long-cherished wish and finally come to the hometown of the Japanese to kill people and set fires. The encounters of life, do you say that it is magical?

The captains checked the names of the places on the map and found the forces entrenched on them one by one:

"Matsuura family, Uku, So, Shimazu family, Omura family, Otomo family, Oki family, Oki family, ......"

They locked up more than 20 daimyos, landowners and other forces in a row, and shouted one after another: "Destroy them all, and there will be no chickens and dogs left!" ”

"Yes, blood debt! The wouldn't dare to go to sea for hundreds of years if they had to be killed! The captains were all enthusiastic, and their voices simply lifted off the roof of the ship.

In this battle, there is no need to mobilize at all!

Just think about it, if you can finally hit the Japanese family this time, everyone will be impatient and screaming and pounce!

Suddenly, an order sounded at the door of the conference room: "Stand up!" ”

Everyone shut up instantly, stood up in an uproar, and saluted Zhao Gongzi, who strode in.

Wang Rulong and Ma Yinglong, a police commissioner of the Coast Guard, followed Zhao Hao. Ma Yinglong also serves as the head of the garrison area, is a senior police inspector with three silver stars, and also serves as the police commissioner of this 'punishment operation'.

Both of them looked a little unkind, obviously making the noise in the conference room angry.

"Take a break." Zhao Hao smiled and waved his hand to the officers.

There was an uproar, and the officers took a break in order.

Zhao Hao said with a smile: "The commander-in-chief of this operation is your captain, and I am here to observe." ”

After speaking, he sat down on the chair by the window on the side, and Zheng Ruozeng and Zhao Shizhen also followed him and sat in the auditorium.

Because he was participating in the combat meeting, Mr. Kaiyang was still wearing a robe without a police rank, and even Zhao Shizhen changed into a police robe, and there were three silver stars. He was appointed by Zhao Hao as the commander of the garrison area, and no one would be jealous of him for being a senior police inspector at a young age.

After Zhao Gongzi sat down, Wang Rulong walked to the stage, saluted Zhao Gongzi first, turned around and scolded the audience.

"It's all fucking burned, and they're all flying and impetuous! The proud soldiers will be defeated, don't you know! Wang Rulong spat and sprayed the blood of a group of police officers scolding.

"Do you know that Mengyuan's two Eastern Crusades were both fucking defeated in Kitakyushu?!" As he spoke, he pointed at the map of Japan behind him with a wooden stick and said sharply: "Why, after a few small victories, you feel that you are better than Kublai Khan?" ”

The police officers all endured obediently, and the captains of Haierdi and Xin Fei were even more disgraced, and it was they who Lao Wang beats.

Zhao Hao listened quietly from the side, he also saw Wang Rulong reprimanding his subordinates for the first time, no wonder he was called 'Living Hades', he was really meowing like eating people, and he was scared to death.

However, the defeat of Meng Yuan in Kitakyushu was largely due to Kublai Khan's efforts to consume the surrendered army of the Southern Song Dynasty and the strength of the Goryeo Kingdom. And the Han and Goryeo people also know that how can they be with the Mongols?

Moreover, the preparation for the war was extremely insufficient, and the Mengyuan sailors used all flat-bottomed sand boats. That thing is used in the inland rivers of the near sea, and it cannot go out to the ocean, otherwise it will not be so badly lost even if it encounters the so-called 'kamikaze'. Zhao Gongzi summed up the lessons of the Mongols, and this time they all used Fu ships and Guangzhou ships suitable for the sea, and the original ten armed sand boats were left at the base to watch their homes.

But to say a thousand things and ten thousand, the Japanese did defeat the Mongols, although they were dismounted, despite their shit luck, they were able to encounter a typhoon in winter, and twice. But it is enough to prove their own strength, which should not be underestimated.

Not to mention the Japanese who have now been quenched by the Warring States period......

~~

After spraying his subordinates with no skin, Wang Rulong asked Ma Yinglong to do a military briefing.

Ma Yinglong is also the head of the garrison and is responsible for military intelligence work. In the past few months, he has really put a lot of effort into it, including interrogating Japanese prisoners and learning detailed information about Japan and Kitakyushu; Send scout teams to monitor the winds and grasses in Kitakyushu; He has even bribed some 'Tang people' operating in Kitakyushu to spy on intelligence on the shore.

The so-called Tang people are the Ming Dynasty maritime merchants and exiles who went east to Japan, and most of them were recruited by Wang Zhi at the beginning. At its peak, there were more than 100,000 men, women and children combined. But after Wang Zhi's death, most of the people followed his men to their own lives, and the short-lived Song Kingdom disappeared. However, there are still many people who are reluctant to return to China and stay in Japan to run ships and do business, and are called 'Tang people' by the locals.

With this layer of origin, Ma Yinglong didn't have much effort, and through Wu Ji's old buddies, he connected with a few Tang people. They have no backers, and their lives are very difficult, so naturally they wish to have the support of the Ming Dynasty again, and they all become supernumerary intelligence officers of the secret service without saying a word.

With the information provided by these well-informed businessmen, Ma Yinglong's understanding of Japan immediately reached a higher level, and he was naturally full of confidence in making a report at this time.

"As the captain said, Japan is not as small and backward as we thought. In fact, the population in their territory is very dense, although there is no exact number, but it definitely exceeds 10 million people, more than double the Li Dynasty! Moreover, they marry early, have children early, and have a short lifespan, so young and middle-aged people account for the majority of the population, and all the people are soldiers, so the total strength of the country can reach one million! ”

Zhao Hao pursed his lips slightly, he didn't believe this number, but it was always right to expect the enemy to be lenient.

Sure enough, the officers in the conference room looked surprised. There are so many soldiers in the old nest of the Japanese robbers, they are only more than 3,000 people, and they are covered in iron and how many nails can they hit?

"Japan is a long and narrow island country, and there are many coastal forces, so the number of naval forces is naturally extremely large." Ma Yinglong also picked up a wooden stick and pointed to the many blue labels on the map and said:

"Such as the Hirado Navy, the Tsushima Navy, the Goto Navy, the Murakami Navy, the Wild Bear Navy, and the Tango Navy...... Wait a minute. Although these naval forces could not match our fleet because of the poor ships and the lack of artillery. However, this time we are fighting away and coastal battles, and it is difficult to guarantee that we will be attacked and taken over by fire under extremely unfavorable circumstances. We only have more than 3,000 people, and we can't afford to lose! ”

The police officers finally showed a solemn expression, they saw that Japan is just the opposite of Tamna, and the coastal terrain is extremely complicated, and if they don't get it right, they will indeed lose Jingzhou.

"Fortunately, Japan is divided into sixty-six countries, and a number of princes are fighting endlessly, as long as we don't overstimulate them, they will definitely not unite and unite with the outside world." Ma Yinglong saw that they finally paid attention to the enemy, so he changed his words and said: "On the contrary, we can also use the contradictions between them to skillfully leverage our strength to achieve our strategic goals." ”

"This requires that in this battle, we must strictly obey orders and are not allowed to play freely." Wang Rulong interjected: "If anyone rushes forward, don't blame Lao Tzu for being ruthless under the sword!" ”

He slapped the golden sword on his waist, and said to Ma Yinglong: "Old Ma, go on." ”

"Hey, okay." Ma Yinglong nodded, picked up a wooden stick, pointed to the map behind him, and said, "Let's talk about the current Japanese court first." Their king is called the Emperor, and it doesn't matter if he says it, it's just an ornament, so don't mention it. ”

Zhao Haoxin said that the current emperor is indeed miserable enough, and the poor jingle is chaotic, but it is still a little useful to speak, and from time to time he can speak for people in exchange for some money and flowers. If it's really miserable, it has to look at the Edo period, before Tokugawa Ieyasu died, promulgated the 17 articles of the "Prohibition of the Laws of the Middle and the Public Family", which is called turning the emperor into an ornament from the law.

The Hodo clearly stipulates that the emperor can only study literature and must not intervene in state affairs. The Shogunate's approval was required for the appointment of court officials, the clothing and ribbons of the Emperor's ministers, and the Emperor's tours. Moreover, the general had the right to interfere with royal marriages, and could even forcibly arrange for members of the royal family to become monks in the name of religion.

can institutionalize the hypocrisy, and the old turtle is indeed enough. Zhao Gongzi felt a burst of praise in his heart, and was immediately stunned, am I envious of him?

This idea is dangerous, little comrade!

ps. I took my son to see the giant panda today, and I also rested my panda eyes. But there are still two more, continue to write......
