Emperor Chongzhen could already imagine that his face as the Son of Heaven would be swollen by Zhang Dou in front of the envoys of various countries at the Great Court.

Although Qiongzhou is only an inconspicuous place, a place where the imperial court exiles prisoners, it is also the land of the Ming Dynasty.

Since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, no one has forcibly occupied the land, and even when the Guanwai Jiannu was rampant, the Dutch people occupied the Penghu court without compromise.

At that time, the Ming Dynasty would rather spend money and money than give up the small island of Penghu to the Dutch, and finally the Dutch took the initiative to retreat to occupy Taiyuan Island.

For a king, losing the land is the greatest incompetence, and Changxingjun is tantamount to touching the scales of Emperor Chongzhen.

Beat! Determined to fight back!

Emperor Chongzhen called the ministers to the imperial study and immediately set the tone.

A kind of cabinet ministers looked at each other, made eye contact with each other, and no one spoke.

Of course, it is easy to fight, but how to fight to get Qiongzhou back is the biggest problem.

Among them, the moat that the imperial court can never cross is the sea, the Changxing Army is unparalleled in the world, and the navy is invincible in the world.

Not to mention the sailors of the imperial court earlier, even the red-haired and yellow-haired plywood ships are not the opponents of the Changxing Army.

Several ministers focused their eyes on the first assistant Wen Tiren, and Wen Tiren found that all the eyes in the imperial study were looking at him, and he had to stand up.

Wen Tiren, who was nearly sixty years old, stepped forward and bowed down and said, "Your Majesty! In the past three hundred years, the Ming Dynasty has not made peace, ceded land, paid compensation, or paid tribute, and the Son of Heaven has guarded the country and has never lost an inch of land.

Qiongzhou was occupied by Lao Chen, who thought that he had to fight, and he had to fight hard, and he must make the thieves who occupied Qiongzhou pay the price! ”

Emperor Chongzhen's face looked much better when Wen Tiren came up and said it, but those words just now were all nonsense.

After seeing Emperor Chongzhen's face soften, Wen Tiren continued: "Your Majesty! According to the information sent by Guangdong, the thieves who occupied Qiongzhou had dozens of large sea ships.

These sea ships are huge, and there are dozens of guns on board. If you want to defeat these thieves, the imperial court needs to dispatch sailors, but neither the Fujian navy nor the sailors of other places can match the warships of this kind of sea ship.

Therefore, if you want to defeat the thieves who occupy Qiongzhou, you need to repel the thieves' sea ships first, otherwise you won't be able to transport Qiongzhou with empty soldiers! ”

As soon as Emperor Chongzhen Zhu Youzhen heard Wen Tiren's words, his face fell. The Ming Dynasty has forbidden the sea for many years, and the sailors have long been abandoned.

He also knew that the Dutch occupied Penghu, and only a dozen sea ships allowed the Fujian sailors to pour out, and hundreds of warships fought for a long time and had no choice but to win the Dutch.

The Changxing army that occupied Qiongzhou this time even beat away the Dutch, and sending Fujian sailors to go there was tantamount to a sheep into the tiger's mouth.

But Emperor Chongzhen really couldn't swallow this breath, and patted the imperial book case and said: "Isn't it true that my Ming Dynasty doesn't have a sea ship that can compete with thieves?" ”

Hearing the emperor's words, Wen Tiren bowed down again and said, "Your Majesty! I really have a sea ship that can rival the thieves, and it surpasses the thieves' sea ships in the hull by a lot, and I think I can install more artillery.

As long as you choose skilled craftsmen to build hundreds of such ships, just thieves are not a problem! ”

Emperor Chongzhen's eyes lit up as soon as he heard this, and he said: "Wen Aiqing is really old and serious, come here!" Look! Sit down and tell me slowly! ”

Wen Tiren slowly sat down on the half-sided brocade pier and organized the language he needed.

Several of the other ministers looked at each other, they already knew what this Shousuke wanted to say!

The eyes that looked at Wen Tiren one by one became different, and secretly gave Wen Tiren a thumbs up, the highest level of cunning and cunning, high! It's really high!

Wen Tiren said unhurriedly: "Your Majesty! When Gonggong Zheng went to the West, the treasure ship built by Zheng Gonggong was forty-four zhang long and eighteen zhang wide, if such a huge ship was built, it would be no problem to defeat the thieves in Qiongzhou! ”

Emperor Chongzhen also remembered that the treasure ship recorded in the book was indeed dozens of zhang long, and such a warship was a moving castle at sea, and it should not be difficult to defeat the enemy.

But this emperor always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't hear any flaws in Wen Tiren's words.

At this time, Wen Tiren continued: "The construction drawings of Zheng Gonggong's treasure ship and the charts of the Western Ocean were stored in the Ministry of War, but Liu Daxia of the Ministry of War was not well protected and was burned by a fire, which is a pity! Pity! ”

When Zhu Youzhen heard this, he finally knew that something was wrong, and he also remembered that the chart was burned by Liu Daxia.

There is no nautical chart to build a fart treasure ship, Wen Tiren said that he was amusing himself for a long time!

At that moment, the young son of heaven looked at Jin Dun under Wen Tiren's buttocks, and his face began to become unkind, thinking that if Wen Tiren was allowed to rise at this time, would the ministers think that he, the emperor, treated the ministers meanly?

Wen Tiren didn't seem to see Zhu Youzhen's gaze, and still said to himself: "The emperor doesn't have to worry! Although the chart was burned by Liu Daxia, there will definitely be craftsmen in Longjiang Treasure Shipyard, and if you find these craftsmen, you can also rebuild the treasure ship! ”

Zhu Youzhen's face looked a little better at this time, and he just wanted to praise Wen Tiren a few words, but he immediately realized a new problem.

A few years ago, Zhang Dou's Changxing army seemed to have attacked the Longjiang Bao Shipyard by posing as Japanese robbers, and the craftsmen there were swept away by Zhang Dou.

At present, there are only a few docks left in Longjiang Bao Shipyard that have been turned into ponds, and the rest do not even have a single hair.

Zhu Youzhen immediately felt that the blue tendons on his forehead jumped, and he almost threw the paperweight in his hand onto Wen Tiren's old face.

Seeing that Zhu Youzhen's eyes were not good, Wen Tiren still said unhurriedly: "The emperor doesn't have to worry! When the treasure ship was built, the craftsmen of Longjiang Treasure Shipyard were craftsmen mobilized from all over the country, and the emperor would definitely be able to build the treasure ship as long as he decreed it again! ”

Zhu Youzhen also felt that this was the truth when he heard this, there were charts and craftsmen, but they could be faster. Even if there is nothing, everything is just a delay in starting over.

"Then let's draw up the purpose! Reopen the Longjiang Treasure Shipyard and build a qualified treasure ship within a time limit, and I will make the thieves pay the price! Emperor Chongzhen really didn't want to talk to Wen Tiren anymore, and this twist and turn of the narrative made Zhu Youzhen have a toothache.

The Hubu Shangshu Marquis on the side stopped doing it, and immediately stood up and said, "Your Majesty! It costs a lot to build a treasure ship, and there is no extra silver tael in the household, so you have to be aware of it, Your Majesty! ”

Hou Sui hated Wen Tiren to death, and it was clear that the household department was empty every year, so he had to make a treasure boat out. How much silver does it take to build a fleet?

Can't just have a fleet? It is also necessary to equip the fleet with artillery and sailors, which together is probably an astronomical amount!
