Qi Jingtong attacked.

With the most powerful sailor of the Ming Dynasty and the most elite sailor, he slowly left Penglai Water Village.

Fang Jifan received a letter from Tang Yin.

In Fang Jifan's view, the most annoying thing for readers is that when describing something, they especially like to use decoration.

What I saw a giant fish today, I have never seen it. Those who have been accustomed to it, loach ears, and giant are already very much. Dancing waves and drum waves, the sound is like thunder.

Groove ......

What a monster, I'm so scared.

Could it be that there were sea beasts in ancient times that had never been seen by later generations, and they were awesome.

But when Tang Yin described that this giant fish would gush up, Fang Jifan's tiger body was shocked, and it turned out to be a whale.

The description is so scary, it's really a cultural person's stinky problem that doesn't change, it's good to say that it's more than a foot tall, eight or nine feet long, the body is black, and the flesh is as white as clotted fat, isn't it? If you have to show off your literary talent at this time, you won't be able to speak well.

Whales......

Unexpectedly, Tang Yin and Hu Kaishan actually hit the idea here.

Fang Jifan's eyes narrowed, and there was also greed in his eyes.

Just like the anchors of later generations always say when they open their mouths, *** is full of treasures.

This is indeed true, because for the great Chinese nation, there is really no animal in this world that is not full of treasures, no matter if you swim in the water or crawl on the ground, you can always eat......

Of course, whales don't just eat.

Every year, hundreds of ships depart from the harbor and bring back whale oil and whale products, which can be made into candles, and candles made from whale oil are almost the best for people at that time, and even after that, there was no better alternative.

Not only that, whale meat can also be eaten, although it is fishy, but if it is added to the cooking of the Chinese nation, it is just to remove the fishy smell.

At the time, 735 of the world's 900 whaling ships came from the United States. Huge economic interests have driven Americans with good business genes to stab calves in the moody ocean and trap the mother whales who refuse to leave.

Whaling was not just a romantic adventure as it was imagined, but a true economic engine, when settlers from the Americas first arrived in the barren, rocky, and difficult to cultivate, and the sea became the main source of food and income. Whaling is a well-paid business, and a whale earns each crew member the equivalent of half a year's wages for a land-based worker. Women continue to disguise themselves as men and work on the boats. In the golden age, American whaling ships were like factories floating on the sea, and after the whales were caught, they could continue to hunt whales while boiling blubber fat into oil in a pot on board. In addition, baleen can be deformed after being roasted with fire, and can maintain its cooled form, and are used like plastic to make various daily necessities such as corsets, umbrella bones, and fishing rods.

Countless people have been engaged in manufacturing, oil refining, whaling, etc., around whaling, and millions of jobs have been created.

And now......

Fang Jifan also became interested in whaling, and Daming also needed a large amount of whale oil to replace the existing wax oil for lighting. Not to mention, a whale is equivalent to hundreds of pigs, how much meat can this provide.

From Tang Yin's description, Fang Jifan probably knew that the majestic Zhenguo Gong suffered a loss, and these sailors who had never experienced a real naval battle at all made frequent mistakes when they encountered an emergency.

In fact...... To some extent, whaling can also be used for training for guards.

You must know that on the vast ocean, to fight with whales, for all the personnel on a ship, it is almost a state of imminent battle, and the negligence of a team and any one person is a terrible thing.

Since the guards can't use the guards to practice their hands, they might as well ...... Let's take the whale as a practice.

Fang Jifan immediately began to think hard about how to hunt whales, and immediately replied to Tang Yin with a letter.

The letter was sent out, and he breathed a sigh of relief, and he couldn't help but blame himself in his heart, whaling is a very dangerous thing, Xiao Tang, Xiao Tang, this matter will be entrusted to you, the teacher has more important things, and if you need to stay in Jingshi, you can't share the hardships with you, huh...... Good luck!

The weather is getting hotter and hotter.

Fang Jifan was wearing a summer shirt, and the purse embroidered by Princess Taikang was hung around his waist, and his father had not written for a long time, which made Fang Jifan worry about him...... Did you find yourself a stepmother?

It's not a way to go on like this, Dad, when the son is older, it's time to marry a daughter-in-law.

As soon as he thought of this, Fang Jifan couldn't help but want to repair the book to his father who was far away in Guizhou, but after thinking about it, he had to be reserved, my Jifan's eldest husband would have no wife.

It's just that early in the morning of this day, a eunuch came in a hurry: "Your Majesty is invited." ”

Invite someone early in the morning, and think about what's going on.

Fang Jifan didn't dare to slack off, and went straight to the palace.

This time, it's still in the warm pavilion.

After Marven ascended to the royal case, he ...... Crying.

Now he has to suspect that he is a broom star.

The report sent this morning showed that Qi Jingtong led his troops to surround Baiwei Island and look for the Japanese invaders.

Outcome...... Indeed, the nest of the Wako was found.

There are thousands of pirates entrenched there.

Outcome......

Defeated.

Qi Jingtong did not dare to attack rashly, his flagship was not ambushed, but the other two large ships actually made meritorious contributions and broke away from the fleet, and the result was ...... Directly collided with the reef.

In order to deal with the two poor Ming ships, Qi Jingtong made a decision and wanted to send people to land and directly attack Baiwei Island.

But the officers and soldiers of the guards had no fighting spirit, and they were quickly killed by the Japanese who licked the blood with their knives.

Qi Jingtong was defeated.

Heavily damaged two ships.

Six or seven hundred people were killed and wounded.

In the end, he returned home.

As soon as the news came, Ma Wensheng's face turned green.

This is the largest elite sailor that the Ministry of War can handle.

Who would have expected that the loss of troops would be defeated.

At this point, he can only come here to plead guilty.

Emperor Hongzhi had a gloomy face, looked at the report, and the first thought was to kill Ma Wensheng.

Not to mention the officers and soldiers, this is all money and food, and the ships that have been built with so much money and food have been spent on so much money and food, and that's it...... It's all over.

He stared at Ma Wensheng fiercely.

Ma Wensheng was disheartened: "Your Majesty, the old minister is stupid and incompetent, and the corpse is vegetarian, so he really can't bear the heavy responsibility of His Majesty, I implore Your Majesty, the quasi-minister, and choose another virtuous ......."

This military department is still in the book, and it really can't be done.

Emperor Hongzhi glanced at Liu Jian coldly.

Liu Jian was silent for a moment, and said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that Ma Shangshu is from Ma Zheng, if he doesn't understand military affairs, this is a bit unreasonable. It's just that the imperial court has been too contemptuous of the Japanese Kou before, and this is not Ma Shangshu's fault, as for the water war, since I Emperor Taizu Gao, the Ming Dynasty has been one hundred and twenty years, and there has never been, therefore, the old minister thinks that even if he chooses another virtuous man, he may not be able to do better than Ma Shangshu. ”

He still hopes that Ma Wensheng will stay.

The military department is a mess now, and after spending so much money and food, it can't do anything.

To be honest, no one is willing to wipe your ass with Ma Wensheng now, you Ma Wensheng is leaving, is it so easy?

Ma Wensheng's face was pale, and he ...... I want to die!

Emperor Hongzhi said coldly: "The relevant personnel must be dealt with, Qi Jingtong, as the commander, why did he hesitate when attacking the island, and when the war was in decline, he escaped, is he worthy of the favor of the imperial court?" ”

Since Liu Jian means that Ma Wensheng will continue to keep it, then he has to find someone else to bear the responsibility for this defeat.

The dignified Ming Dynasty can't deal with any of the widows, this ...... Are you still worthy of your ancestors and ancestors? It's just a joke.

Ma Wensheng was silent for a moment: "Your Majesty, the minister has a word." ”

"You say!"

Ma Wensheng said ashamedly: "Qi Jingtong is indeed a rare talent, before going to sea, he sent an official document to the Ministry of War, thinking that it is not appropriate to go to sea to fight at this time, this time, it is really the fault of the Ministry of War, driving ducks on the shelf, he chose to flee, I am afraid that he also knows that he has no skills to return to the sky, and hopes to keep the few remaining ships of my Ming Dynasty......"

"Enough!" Emperor Hongzhi looked very unkind.

At this time, you, Ma Wensheng, are the guilty ministers, and now you still want to intercede for others.

Judging from the report, the imperial court handed over so much money and grain, ships and soldiers and horses to Qi Jingtong, and now that he is defeated, he is fully responsible, if the imperial court does not dispose of it, how can he serve the public?

After Fang Jifan came in, he saw that Emperor Hongzhi's face was terrifying, and he was so frightened that he didn't dare to come out, and he didn't dare to touch the tiger's beard at this time, after all, ...... There is also a useful body.

Hear about the big defeat.

Fang Jifan sighed in his heart, but he also knew that such a big defeat was almost a historical inevitability.

A group of ducks who have been dry for more than a hundred years really think that by building a few ships like the eunuchs of the Three Treasures, they can hang and beat a group of Japanese robbers across the ocean?

This is not Fang Jifan's prestige.

Rather, water warfare is a technical job, and he definitely does not rely on courage to win. What's more, when it comes to courage, how can a group of military families who are discriminated against by the literati, who usually refuse to allocate money and food on time, and who make people hungry every once in a while, compare their courage with those murderous thieves.

But at this time, I heard that Emperor Hongzhi was going to dispose of Qi Jingtong.

This Qi Jingtong ...... It seems to be Qi Jiguang's father.

Person...... He is indeed a famous general.

Although his achievements are far inferior to Qi Jiguang, and the so-called Lao Tzu is not as good as his son, Fang Jifan believes that Qi Jingtong is just a talented person, and the Chenghua and Hongzhi dynasties he has experienced, the imperial court does not have much vigilance against the Japanese Kou at all, and naturally, it is impossible to give him a chance to perform.

But even so, this Qi Jingtong still relied on his true skills to show his strength in history.

Fang Jifan hesitated for a while, should he take a risk for Qi Jiguang and his father?

After a moment of silence, Fang Jifan laughed: "Hahahaha......"

Not surprisingly, Fang Jifan ushered in countless eyes as if this person was mentally retarded. Search for "CM" or enter the URL:.
