In the winter of the seventh year of Zhengde, in November, there was heavy snow in the north. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Zhu Shou, the chief military officer of the mighty general, led the Daming Water Division to Penghu, and was bound to seize the pirates in the South China Sea.

The army set out from Shandong, drove for two months, and finally arrived in Xiamen, Zhejiang.

Zhu Houzhao, who was wearing a hideous bronze mask, sat on the dragon's head treasure boat with a golden sword, looking at the waves in front of him, and suddenly sighed in his heart.

To be honest, Zhu Houzhao didn't think he was a person who kept to himself, but he still felt a little tired when he was rushing to the south from the capital to North Korea.

The thought of missing his wife and concubine on the hot kang inevitably arose.

But he knew he couldn't stop. If he has been sitting in the capital now or in the future, he can be the Taiping Emperor for decades, and he can make the Ming Dynasty stable for decades.

When you die, you can still get the nickname of a martial artist.

A person has enjoyed all the blessings, the respect of the Ninety-Five, the three thousand beauties of the harem, and the Ming Dynasty will also prosper because of the opening of the sea ban and the clarification of the rule of officials, but what is the point of that?

The vision of the Ming people is still limited to the acre and three points of land in China, and they still don't know how vast the world outside the South China Sea is, and they are still intoxicated by the dream of the beauty of the world in China.

Later, the country was opened by artillery, 5,000 years of civilization was devastated, and more than a billion people wept bitterly and couldn't find themselves?

Zhu Houzhao knows that kind of pain and has experienced that kind of pain.

He didn't want history to repeat itself, so he was destined to run.

In later generations, Zhu Houzhao heard the most sentence: Taiwan has been China's inalienable land since ancient times, Diaoyu Dao has been China's inalienable land since ancient times, and any attempt to split China will be unanimously and severely condemned by the 1.3 billion Chinese!

But now Zhu Houzhao wants to say that the Erguna River is the inherent land of our Ming Dynasty, and Lake Baikal will also be the inherent land of the Ming Dynasty, and any land we lose in the future will become the inherent land of the Ming Dynasty.

Any country that dares to covet will become the target of the Ming Dynasty!

Therefore, when Zhu Houzhao stationed troops in Xiamen, looked at Kinmen from afar, and looked at Taiwan from afar, although he knew in his heart that those lands might not have official names, they were just relics left overseas by the mainland.

But his heart was still involuntarily excited, and the feeling of blood connection spanned hundreds of years, and the present and future generations were strongly intertwined.

Shang Er was miserable, and three months of continuous fighting caused him heavy losses.

Especially after the old ship owner who relieved himself began to mobilize warships to besiege him with all his might, even with the support of the imperial court, he still felt a little unbearable.

After Zhu Houzhao's fleet garrisoned Xiamen, Shang Er immediately led the remaining ships to come closer.

His identity has been exposed, and it is pointless to act in front of the old ship owner or the old man of the Mo family.

"Good work!" Zhu Houzhao looked at Shang Er, who was kneeling in front of him with the smell of gunpowder on his face, and exhorted.

Shang Er is also quite difficult, at the beginning, more than a dozen broken ships went to sea, and now they have mixed into the third sea pirate group in the South China Sea, and it has been beyond Zhu Houzhao's expectations to be able to fight with a thief like the old ship owner who has been entrenched in the South China Sea for many years.

The most rare thing is that Shang Er has been operating in the South China Sea for many years, and he has basically figured out the distribution of pirates at sea.

It can be said that Shang Er is a living map of the South China Sea boundary.

"My subordinates are ashamed of the trust placed in the general!" Shang Er knew the importance of the South China Sea to the Ming Dynasty, and he was very ashamed of the severance of trade routes. Although it was not his duty to garrison the trade routes.

Zhu Houzhao shook his head and said, "With your merits, you can be promoted to a general." However, the South China Sea is vast, so I will play the emperor and give you the identity of a general soldier.

After that, you don't want to be a pirate anymore, take your brothers back to the status of an official soldier, and garrison the South China Sea.

Ben will send you 30,000 soldiers, how many ships do you need, you directly ask for it from the Shanghai Maritime Prime Minister Yamen, and the Ministry of Industry will approve it. ”

Before the war began, Zhu Houzhao had already begun to make arrangements for future affairs in the South China Sea.

Although the two pirates in the South China Sea have been dominating the South China Sea for many years, they are still Ming people at the root, and they naturally have a natural fear of the imperial court.

So Zhu Houzhao didn't take it to heart.

Shang Er was overjoyed, and was directly promoted to the chief soldier from Jinyi Wei Baihu, which is simply a steady progress, and the ancestral tomb is smoking, which is in vain for so many years of hard work in the South China Sea.

After feeling the grace of heaven, Shang Er immediately returned to his true colors as a soldier.

"General, you see, the Mo family's overseas power is mainly entrenched in Dawan (present-day Taiwan) and the surrounding Penghu Islands." Shang Er pointed to the chart and said.

"The Mo family's influence was mainly on the mainland back then, so its overseas base also chose Dawan, which was closer to the mainland.

Among them, Kinmen Island is used as their springboard, but now the Mo family has shrunk its power, and the number of people left in Kinmen is only about 1,000, and there are more than 50 large and small ships.

Among them, there are about 20 ships that can fight.

The rest of the islands are large and small, and they are all pirate gangs under the command of the Mo family. ”

Zhu Houzhao nodded: "In this way, the Mo family's overseas forces may have tens of thousands of soldiers who dare to fight?" ”

Shang Er immediately said: "The general's guess is right, the Mo family ranks second among the pirates, and the population under its command is about 100,000, including many ronins from Fusang.

The generals of this team need to pay attention, their combat power cannot be underestimated! ”

"How's the old shipowner?"

At the mention of the old shipowner, Shang Er couldn't help but swallow his saliva and said, "General Hui, this person has basically established another country overseas, occupying countless islands, and has 200,000 people under his command!" ”

Zhu Hou took care of the position pointed by Shang Er, and immediately understood that the old shipowner occupied Singapore in the later generations and established himself as the king.

After thinking about it for a while, Zhu Houzhao found that the sea power of the Ming Dynasty was still too weak. Although the twelve treasure ships are invincible, the scale is too small.

What the current Ming Dynasty needs to develop is a large number of intermediate-level sea vessels.

"Okay, pass the order, send troops tomorrow, march to Kinmen, take the Mo family first, and then conquer the old shipowner."

After Zhu Houzhao made a battle plan, the officers and men of the whole army began to prepare.

Early the next morning, the 12 zodiac signs went to Kinmen under the light of the morning sun.

Before noon, the Golden Gate was already in sight.

Looking at the Mo family ships parked in Kinmen Port, Zhu Houzhao did not order all the ships to attack, but let all the ships line up.

Shelling of Kinmen Island!

It was a one-sided shelling. The Mojia ships stationed at the mouth of Kinmen Island suffered a devastating blow at the first time, and all of them burned into ashes in the artillery fire.

Subsequently, the artillery fire began to extend, and all the small Kinmen Island was scorched in Zhu Houzhao's artillery fire.

Zhu Houzhao, the landing unit, had no idea of letting go at all. Heavy artillery fire continued until dark, and in the night, the flames of Kinmen Island could be clearly seen for ten miles.

Naturally, none of the Mo pirates on the road survived.

This is the reddest official from the Ming Dynasty. Naked threats!

The next day, a small boat came from the Great Bay.

The old man of the Mo family's peace letter spoke in a humble tone. But to sum it up, there is only one sentence, what is the suffering of the Ming people.

Therefore, Zhu Houzhao only had one sentence back to him: "Those who killed my Ming people are not my Ming people!" (To be continued.) )
