Section 867 Victory in the North Boosts Morale

Southeast Asia, Bangka Island, Penang Harbour off the sea, warships gathered.

At this time, the First and Second Fleets of the Southeast Province were combined into one, with a total of 48 battleships and 18 fifth-class cruisers.

They are all big ships, and although their gun doors are not opened, they are terrifying.

On the flagship "Southeast Asia II", a thin middle-aged general has four stars (admiral) on the shoulder plate of his military uniform, he is draped in a golden ribbon, and various medals shine on his chest.

He is not angry and arrogant, it is the main general Chen De, this person is Yan Changwu's uncle, he is old, he can control the army, he is loyal, as long as Yan Changwu is alive, he doesn't have to worry.

In terms of command level, he is not very outstanding, but Yan Changwu has risen too fast, although he is crazy about building ships, adopting the training method of moon, moon, fire, water, wood, gold and gold, and using the military academy Dafa to make up for evil, there is no shortage of middle and low-level officers, non-commissioned officers, and soldiers, but there is still a lack of marshal-level and general-level generals who can control the scene, their growth is not something that can be achieved by training, and they have to go through a big war, Chen De is one of them, and he is a rare senior officer in Yan Changwu's camp.

He originally commanded the fleet in the Ming Dynasty to intimidate the enemy on all sides, but as Yan Changwu pacified the Ming Dynasty and sent him back to Southeast Asia to sit in the town, just in time for this war.

He had just come back, and when he came back the wind was not good, the boat was not easy, and the jolts were so hard that the man was very tired, and therefore he became thinner.

But he was able to come back, which stabilized the morale of the fleet.

One by one, the transport boats approached the flagship and sent groups of officers, who were the commanders of the detachment fleet and the captains of the ships, to the flagship for a meeting.

Due to the large number of people, a long sunshade was erected on the open-air deck, and the seats were put up.

Another transport boat arrived, and a short time later, the burly figure of Hong Xiguan, the commander of the Second Fleet, emerged from the bulwark.

He climbed up along the rope net, this is Chen De's dismount to the officers, so that the well-dressed middle and senior officers climbed up like a monkey under the eyes of everyone, so Hong Xiguan felt ashamed, and when he saw Chen De on the boat, he did not salute but arched his hand and said: "Xiaguan Fujian Navy Division General Hou Ye greeting!" Congratulations to Master Hou! Congratulations to the monkey! The monkey master was promoted to make a fortune, and he didn't give a reward to the little one! ”

Hong Xuguan's identity in Daming was the general of the Fujian Naval Division, and he mentioned another future that Chen De earned in Daming, he was made a marquis and hereditary for his meritorious service in commanding the fleet to attack the Tatars.

It's just that he didn't wear Daming's official uniform at all, Chen De was majestic, and only the second generation of officials like Hong Xuguan dared to joke with him.

Chen De shook his head and said: "Boy Hong, you really haven't seen you for three days, so you went to the house to uncover the tiles and begged for a beating!" ”

"Sir, can he go to the room? I've never seen such a fat monkey! A young officer next to him said, which immediately caused a burst of laughter, diluting the tension before the war.

It is Yan Zhang, one of Hong Xuguan's sworn friends.

Officer Hong Xi eats very well on Belitung Island, where the headquarters of the Second Fleet is stationed, and although he loses weight through exercise, he is still a little fatter than other officers, which caused Yan Zhang's merciless ridicule: "Look, this Commander Hong's double chin is out!" ”

Hong Xuguan glared at him angrily: "Boy, don't mess with me, otherwise I will be heavier than you and fly you into the sea!" ”

"Hehe, I'm really a little scared, I'm a thin monkey afraid of you, a fat monkey!" Yan Zhangying replied, and the officers laughed.

Seeing that the building was crooked, Chen De said: "So you have to be a pioneer, rush more, and lose weight!" ”

Thinking that he was the vanguard, Hong Xuguan first arched his hand and said: "Thank you for your favor!" Only then did he put his legs together and saluted: "Officer Hong Xu, commander of the Second Fleet of the Ministry of Ranks, report to the commander!" ”

Chen De returned the salute and asked, "How is your Second Fleet preparing?!" ”

"Report to the commander, the second fleet is ready, just wait for the commander's order, immediately set off to kill the enemy, kill them without leaving a single piece of armor!" Hong Xuguan replied loudly.

"Good!" Chen De said with satisfaction.

……

It is not a joke to agree that the time of the meeting is nine o'clock in the morning, Chen De is a drum, and if it is outdated, it is a military engagement!

At 8:58 a.m., all the officers arrived.

In addition to Chen De, Hong Xuguan, and Yan Zhang, there are also foreign generals Kaustit, Siresma, Xiao Changrong and Shi Daxuan, etc., all of whom are famous generals of a generation.

At nine o'clock, Chen De announced the meeting.

He first briefly introduced the affairs of the Ming Dynasty on the other side of the sea, and pointed out: "The leader is far-sighted, the command is calm, he entered Nanjing in May of the year before (1644), mastered the Ming regime, and was named the southeast prince by the Ming Dynasty, of course, everyone also knows that he is not interested in wearing such costumes!"

Last year's Northern Expedition, the army went north, attacked the Tatars, the leader Ming repaired the plank road, secretly crossed Chencang, and Gan Hui attracted the attention of the Tatars by playing the half-paid Tianzi Luan, and stationed troops on the front line in Jinan, and the two armies confronted each other.

And the leader came to recruit the carp to jump over the dragon gate, ride the wind into the ninefold, lead the fleet to Tianjin, command the troops to land from Tianjin, the inside should be combined with the outside, Hong Wanlin in Tianjin is our internal response, he and Zu Dashou defeated the Tatar defense in Tianjin, we landed smoothly, and attacked Beijing!

As a result, we succeeded, and under the command of the leader, we successfully stormed Beijing, killed the Tatar emperor and their so-called Prince Rui, and killed all the Tatar leaders who stayed in Beijing! ”

When he said this, "Good! The officers clapped their hands together.

Although there is also news from the northern continent, it is not as authoritative as Chen De said.

Chen De's opening remarks were to encourage morale with victory, and he continued to talk about the war in the north, our army defeated the Tatars, and completely wiped out the Tatars in Guannei, who had plagued the Ming Dynasty and damaged our army and people, and our army was completely restored!

He also mentioned the power of the Tatars, first raised and then suppressed, such a powerful Tatar, the Ming Emperor couldn't do it anyway, our leader just came a year ago, and he pacified them!

Let the officers listen to it with relish and feel deeply excited!

Especially Yan Zhang and Hong Xuguan sat together, thinking that it was so fun for others to go to Daming, Gan Hui was crowned as a duke, Chen Defeng was a marquis, although Daming's official robe was not valuable, but it was not a bad thing to get multiple titles to play, especially for the hometown of southern Fujian, after all, it was Daming over there, and the official of Daming was recognized.

He was "framed" by Hong Xuguan and had to stay in Southeast Asia to get moldy, thinking of hatred, he gave Hong Xuguan an elbow, how could Hong Xuguan be afraid of him, and when he was about to make a move, he heard Chen De shout: "Yan Zhang, is your elbow so long?" Got to someone's body? ”

Yan Zhang retracted his elbow in a sneer, and was honest, only Chen De could suppress these thorny guys here.

"The leader is wise and courageous, and he succeeds immediately, and the Tatars are defeated!" Chen De raised his fist and said excitedly.

"Now that the red-haired fan is here, he wants to rob our home, the leader is not here, what do you say?" Chen De asked.

"Defend the family and the country!"

"Never be a bad seed!"

"Fight in the face of the enemy!" The officers shouted, and the morale soared!
