Yihuang Tan is a scholarly family, since the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, there are as many as five Jinshi alone, you must know that Wang Shizhen's Taicang Wang family is only four Jinshi.

Originally, in the Jiajing Dynasty, the Yihuang Tan family had the opportunity to shine, but unfortunately, in the Great Rites Discussion after Emperor Jiajing ascended the throne, the Tan family suffered a heavy setback.

Tan Lun's uncle Tan Peng, a Jinshi during the Hongzhi period, Qian Yuan's grandfather, when the hundred officials cried at the door, the then imperial history of the Metropolitan Procuratorate was seriously injured by the court staff, and died after a few months.

Tan Peng's wife died of illness shortly after dealing with the funeral, and the eldest son who had been lifted into the void cut his hair, and the talented second son had a strong dislike for his career since then.

The Yihuang Tan clan declined, and it was not until the twenty-third year of Jiajing that Tan Lun Zhongjinshi revived, but in fact, before Tan Lun, Tan Peng's son Tan Wei had the opportunity to take the lead.

In the eighteenth year of Jiajing, Tan Wei won the small three yuan in one fell swoop and became famous in Jiangxi, but in the township test in the second year, he caused a big disaster.

Tan Wei wrote down a piece of eight strands that all the examiners were amazed by, but there were such words in it, "Emperor Taizong".

Of course, the examiners would not think that this was talking about Tang Taizong Li Shimin...... As a result, Tan Weixiang failed in the test, and the examiner who had a personal relationship also privately notified the Tan family.

Since then, Tan Wei has never participated in the township test, not to mention that he doesn't want to go, even if he wants to go, the clansmen will never allow it.

The reason is very simple, in the eighteenth year of Jiajing, the battle for the Great Rites that lasted for a full eighteen years ended in the complete victory of Emperor Jiajing, and the stubborn emperor changed Zhu Di's "Taizong" to "Shizu" in order to let his biological father enter the Taimiao.

Therefore, Tan Weixiang's sentence "Emperor Taizong" in the test was too taboo, and then consider the cause of his father's death...... Which examiner would dare to order such an artillery protégé?

After playing such a little trick, Tan Wei was completely liberated, and traveled north and south as a lone ranger, saw the vast grassland, saw the vast desert, and then developed a strong interest in the sea.

Yu Dayou and Lu Bo led their troops to attack Ligang, Tan Wei was present at the time, and after escaping his life, he was completely involved in the Japanese invaders, and his tracks were all over Songjiang, Jiaxing, and Suzhou, and he was not without a chance to get out.

Three months ago, Tan Wei finally found an opportunity to contact Tan Lun, and only then did he have a secret conversation on Chinese New Year's Eve.

"Don't go." Although Tan Wei is disgusted with official careers, he is born with a strong sense of justice, "Don't worry, it's not difficult to listen to the news, the difficult thing is how to deliver the news." ”

"Take a sip of tea." Tang Shunzhi poured another cup of tea and pushed it over, "Since Xu Hai invaded Jiaxing and Ningbo in March and April, there has been no major march, and it is said that there is a war with Wang Zhi?" ”

Tan Wei nodded, "After May, Xu Hai accumulated strength, or co-opted, or suppressed, gathered a huge fleet, and officially declared war on Wang Zhi in mid-June, and I was recruited by Xu Hai in early June. ”

"Although it was a war, it has been tepid, Xu Hai has won consecutive battles, but Wang Zhi has a thick foundation, until more than half a month ago, Xu Hai raided Songjinpu in Satsushima Island...... This is Wang Zhi's base camp. ”

"The advance sent the dead to assassinate, Wang Zhi is said to have been injured in three places, and he was furious and led his troops to attack, Xu Hai retreated three times in a row, and lost his troops and generals, but in the end he ......"

"Lure the enemy deeper?"

"Yes, at that time, the fog filled the sea, Xu Hai turned back and fought back, charging forward, Wang Zhi was only spared, five people were killed in the battle of the thirteen people, and the most prestigious Mao Haifeng lost his left arm." Tan Wei sighed: "Although Wang Zhi is the king of Hui, his strength is still superior to Xu Hai, but it is difficult to say how long it can last." ”

"In Chongde City that day, Zhancai once said that although Xu Hai didn't study, he was proficient in the art of war and was cunning and abnormal." Tang Shunzhi sighed: "Sending the dead soldier to assassinate, Wang Zhi has committed the taboo of the art of war because of his anger, Xu Hai retreated, and won the three flavors of the art of war." ”

"Don't study...... Tan Wei smiled bitterly: "Although Xu Hai doesn't study, there is a mastermind around him, this person's surname is Fang, it is said that he is from Zhejiang, and he is very trusted by Xu Hai, so this plan is ...... Eighty percent is the handiwork of this person. ”

The study was quiet, Tan Lun frowned and pondered, what kind of impact will the changes in the forces of the Japanese at sea have on the situation in the southeast?

Tang Shunzhi whispered to Tan Wei to ask about the division of forces, the scope of activities, and the details of weapons and ships.

Because the Japanese invaders went ashore to plunder, whether they won or lost, they often sailed away, so the Ming army knew very little about the inside of the Japanese invaders, which was also the main use of Tan Wei's chess piece at present.

"Others call him 'Mr. Fang', and some people call him a military advisor, I haven't seen it, I don't show up very much, and it's very mysterious."

"Xu Hai is very rampant now, and a few days ago he held a feast...... Mu Monkey is just a crown, but that day I saw two women beside him, and I was very pampered. ”

"Where is the island? It's about a two-day flight from Zhoushan, and the map has been drawn, but ......"

Tang Shunzhi shook his head, "Since the beginning of the year, Zili has begun to recruit troops to build ships, but it is still very early to go to sea, Nanjing has delivered a number of ships, but the offshore is okay, once it is difficult to carry the wind and waves once it is sailing." ”

"There are sea boats on Chongming Island in Suzhou." Tan Lun interjected: "It should belong to Dong Bangzheng, the governor of Su Songhaiphong." ”

"Pick elite soldiers to raid?" Tang Shunzhi asked tentatively: "Zhancai has a relationship with Dong Bangzheng, it shouldn't be difficult for him to send a letter." ”

"Impossible." Tan Wei immediately shook his head, "Xu Hai is quite vigilant, there are ships patrolling the sea for dozens of miles, and once it is attacked, it will immediately light the wolf smoke to warn." ”

Tang Shunzhi shook his head irritably, "Then we can't do anything?" ”

There was silence in the study, the status quo was in front of us, the Ming army lacked a navy, and it was difficult to have any impact on the dispute between Xu Hai and Wang Zhi.

Tan Wei said disappointedly: "You can't just expect them to kill each other and end up together, right?" ”

"It's best to end up together, but it's unlikely." Qi Jiguang spoke for the first time tonight, "But Xu Hai must not be allowed to defeat Wang Zhi and dominate the Japanese Kou." ”

"Why?"

"Wang Zhi is a businessman, and all he thinks about is opening the sea and banning trade." Qi Jiguang calmly analyzed: "But Xu Hai is a pirate, he made a living by plundering long before Ligang was destroyed, and even plundered Wang Zhi's fleet. ”

"Xu Hai plundered Wang Zhi's fleet?" Tan Wei asked in surprise, "Where did the news come from?" ”

Qi Jiguang paused, coughed before saying, "I only talked about it at the end of last year, and this matter should be true." ”

Tan Lun sighed, "But we can't intervene in the dispute between Wang Zhi and Xu Hai......"

Tang Shunzhi hesitated for a while, and asked, "Why don't you send a letter and ask Zhancai?" ”

Tan Lun snorted, "There's no need for this!" ”

"Zili ......"

"Jingchuan Gong, no." Qi Jiguang whispered: "Although Zhancai has a very good relationship with the governor, it is ...... to bypass the governor."

Tang Shunzhi didn't have anything to say now, but Tan Lun said angrily: "It's best to win the Jinshi, and then release it to Taizhou!" ”

"That's good." Tang Shunzhi said with a smile: "Zhancai is now more famous than you Tan Zili in the mouth of the Japanese Kou......

"That's right." Tan Wei echoed: "It's just that the reputation is not good." ”

Even Qi Jiguang laughed at this time, Qian Yuan had the nickname of the reincarnation of the broom star at sea, and Songjiang had not been attacked by the Japanese for several months.

Tan Wei is the elder brother of the Tan family, and asked about Qian Yuan carefully, Jiajing twenty-five years before he threw himself into the sea, he also went to Huating, and he saw Qian Yuan at that time.

"Still sharp-toothed and sharp-mouthed, Zhang Banzhou can't get off the stage by him." Tan Lun complained for a while, looking at the two people next to him with a smile and a smile, Qi Jiguang was okay but with a straight face, Tang Shunzhi's face was already long.

Facing the map, the four of them discussed for half the night, and Tan Lun finally said: "At least Xu Hai can't completely defeat Wang Zhi and replace him, the second brother can act cheaply if he has the opportunity, but it is not advisable to take risks." ”

"Got it." Tan Wei drank another cup of tea and said with a wry smile: "Smuggling is still there now, but there are not many goods, and there is really no good tea at sea." ”

Tang Shunzhi frowned and said in a low voice: "If you have the opportunity, you can contact the military advisor surnamed Fang." ”

"Okay, now that I have more than two hundred people under Xu Hai, it shouldn't be difficult."

Before dawn, Tan Wei and Qi Jiguang left the house through the back door, traveled all the way, and soon arrived at the coast.

Tan Wei arched his hand and said: "Please ask Yuan Jing for relevant news transmission." ”

Qi Jiguang replied: "It is incumbent on you." ”

Watching the ship gradually disappear into the darkness, Qi Jiguang licked his lips and wondered if he should turn around and suggest to Tan Lun that he inform Qian Yuan of this matter.

Qi Jiguang found out very early, it seems that Qian Yuan knows a lot about the Japanese Kou, and all kinds of names and information are easy to come by, but there are few mistakes.

Many things are not interrogated prisoners, hearsay can be understood, Qi Jiguang has a faint guess in his heart, whether it is possible that Qian Yuan has buried nails in the widows.

Well, Qi Jiguang's guess...... It can only be said that it is crooked, at least it will be exposed in the future, and Qian Yuan does not have to show his identity as a traverser. Diagram of the Avenue of the Heavens
