Chapter 299: Sharpening the Knife
The news brought by Fei Xin made Tang Ming stunned for a moment, Ryukyu was the island he planned to occupy, but he didn't expect this guy Jianwen to take the first step and occupy it first. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info But listening to Fei Xin's words, Jianwen is only on Penghu Island, a subsidiary island of the Ryukyus, which makes Tang Ming a little confused.
The climate and area of Ryukyu Island are not as good as Penghu Island, why did Jianwen give up the big and seek the small to build the stronghold on Penghu Island instead of Ryukyu Island. If you can't figure it out, you don't bother to think about it, anyway, when the time comes, bring someone over and go to the island to find out the reason.
Tang Ming chatted with Fei Xin for a while, and then he took Bai Xiaolan back to Nanjing City, parted ways with Bai Xiaolan at the city gate, and went directly to the palace to see the emperor.
Tang Ming suddenly asked to see him, Zhu Di felt very incredible, it was said that after this guy broke out from the fact that the farmer did not plough the land, he avoided anyone and didn't even go out of the door, and kept hiding at home as a daddy.
Asked the eunuch to bring Tang Ming to the imperial study, Zhu Di squinted at Tang Ming, and said after a while: "It's rare!" Weihaihou will actually take the initiative to come to me. ”
Looking at Zhu Di's smiling expression, Tang Ming immediately knew that he was still angry at himself for not going out for the past two days. In fact, he can't do it, the matter of farmers having no land to cultivate, in the final analysis, the key is still in those princes and nobles, for this class Zhu Di himself does not dare to make any moves now, let alone his little marquis.
Under the imperial power system, the lifeblood of a dynasty is in the hands of these princes and nobles, if it is not a last resort, even Zhu Di does not dare to touch the interests of the princes and nobles, they are the foundation of Zhu Di's governance of the country, and they are also the backers behind it.
"Your Majesty, Weichen is also forced to do so, this family has just given birth to a child and has to stay at home to accompany the family, so I can't come to the emperor and queen every day to say goodbye, I hope it's no wonder."
Zhu Di always likes to be thorny when he speaks, especially for some reason, he always likes to pinch and suppress himself, Tang Ming feels that if he has the opportunity, he must find Yao Guangxiao, an old monk, to tell his fortune to see if he is in conflict with these people in the royal family.
"For the sake of the implementation of the plan that your kid offered last time, the effect is not bad, and I will not bother with you. I'm coming to me today, so let's talk about it. ”
Zhu Di saw that Tang Ming's mood was a little low, and he was not as energetic as he used to be, which would make him lose interest in suppressing Tang Ming anymore, and he went straight to the point as soon as his tone changed.
Regarding the matter of Zhu Di's number one enemy, Tang Ming didn't dare to ink too much, his face was straight, and he bowed down and said: "Emperor Qiqi, just now Weichen finally waited for his subordinates to go to sea to find Jianwen's anti-thief overseas mysterious island, and they also lived up to expectations and brought good news. ”
"Found it?" Sure enough, as Tang Ming thought, Zhu Di immediately became anxious as soon as he heard about Jianwen.
Tang Ming nodded and said: "Jianwen's mysterious island is Penghu Island, not far from the coast of southern Fujian, this island is indeed not big, and it has always been barren mountains and mountains, due to the geographical environment there, large ships cannot approach, so few people land on the island, even if there are merchant ships passing by there, they mostly detour. ”
Zhu Di didn't speak, but fell into deep thought, and after a long time, he opened his eyes and said coldly: "Are you sure to attack that Penghu Island?" ”
Zheng He's departure almost emptied the entire Ming navy, leaving only some forces to maintain defense in each port, and if you want to transfer manpower, you may make those ports that are transferred fall into a place where no one can use.
There are almost no navies that Da Ming can really send out to fight now, so Zhu Di asked Tang Ming if he was sure.
A small Penghu Island, in Tang Ming's opinion, it is easy to take, the treasure shipyard now has ten treasure ships available, and there are more than 100 warships to escort. It is a pity that although these ships can go to sea without any problems, only sailors do not have soldiers who really know naval warfare.
Fortunately, Tang Ming had already been prepared, and Li Dazhui's hundred snipers should also be the time to test their results. Quietly let these 100 people land on the island, Tang Ming believed that it would not take half a day to quietly kill everyone on the island.
"Your Majesty, it is not difficult to take that Penghu Island, and now Nanjing's navy is enough to serve it. Moreover, Weichen has already been prepared, and the warship and all personnel are already waiting at the dock, ready to be dispatched at any time. ”
Zhu Di laughed when he heard this, and immediately ordered to set off tomorrow, but he wanted to drive the expedition in person. He also said that he wanted to take this opportunity to go to the sea area of Daming, and his resolute expression was not joking at all.
Tang Ming didn't expect Zhu Di to go with him, so he disrupted his original plan at once. was in a hurry to go back and make another arrangement, and this guy Zhu Gaochi appeared in front of Tang Ming's eyes out of nowhere.
"I heard from my mother that my father asked you to take him to the waters of Daming, and I also want to see what the waters of Daming are like, and I have to leave a place on the ship then."
Zhu Gaochi obviously didn't come to discuss with Tang Ming, this guy immediately flashed after dropping these words, and he didn't even give Tang Ming a chance to complain.
Tang Ming laughed angrily, anyway, it doesn't matter if the emperor wants to have one more prince, the dead pig is not afraid of boiling water. Putting aside Zhu Di and Zhu Gaochi, an annoying father and son, Tang Ming went directly to Gao Chun's jungle.
In order to allow all the soldiers to adapt to the treacherous environment in the jungle as quickly as possible, Li Dazhui has never stepped out of the jungle in the past month. Eat, drink, and sleep in the jungle every day, and train all the time.
When Tang Ming saw Li Da Hammer and them, he could barely recognize them, these guys were almost wild one by one, some of their clothes had been torn into strips, and some were simply wearing clothes made of vines and leaves.
Li Dazhui wasn't too dark before, but this Tang Ming was face to face with him, only when he opened his mouth to speak, he saw that mouthful of white teeth, and the rest of the place almost merged with the darkness under the shade of the tree.
From this, it can be seen that the results of their training should be good, at least on the surface, the disguise of these guys has reached a very high level.
When Li Hammer heard that he was going to sea to carry out the mission, the expression on his face was very calm, and he grinned and assured Tang Ming to complete the task.
Let Li Dazhui and them stop training now, rest for a while, and then rush to the treasure shipyard, and he himself will go back to the Zheng Mansion to clean up, and take Zhu Yong and Xiaobai to the treasure shipyard as well.
Fei Xin is now the only admiral in Tang Ming, so he is taking care of most of the affairs, and when he heard that the emperor is also going to walk with them, Fei Xin is even more energetic to arrange manpower. (To be continued.) )
