Chapter 464: Uncertain Factors

As soon as Zhu Yong and Li Ba left, the conference room fell silent again, in fact, everyone knew in their hearts that tomorrow's battle would definitely be more auspicious. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info face more than 20 times the enemy, even if you can win in the end, you will be deeply damaged, and you will not be able to recover in a few years.

Everyone is just pessimistic and deeply hidden in their hearts, Tang Ming also understands what he is facing, but he has no way out, and the soldiers will block the water and cover the earth. He now has no choice but to fight for more tactics in his advantage.

The night was getting late, in order for everyone to have a good spirit to face the battle tomorrow, Tang Ming ordered the meeting to be dismissed, and in the end, when only Fei Xin and him were left in the room, he said a little tiredly: "Tomorrow, scatter all my newly brought mines on the sea, delay as long as possible, and don't confront them head-on." We were too short to afford to spend our troops, and when we could not disperse their fleet, we scattered all our forces to fight him. ”

Fei Xin nodded and agreed, and after saying goodbye to Tang Ming, he went to the dock to arrange the battle, and Tang Ming stayed directly in the lighthouse with Xiaobai. Tang Ming, who didn't feel sleepy at all, simply climbed to the top of the tower with Xiaobai. The lighthouse is the highest point on Ryukyu Island facing the sea, and the top of the tower is the best place to see the sea.

Tang Ming clasped his hands in front of his chest, raised his eyes to look at the dark sea level, and in the darkness he could see that not far away, a faint light gathered together was shaking. This is the navy sent by Zhu Di, and from Tang Ming's point of view, it is impossible to count how many ships are docked there.

Xiao Bai seemed to feel the fluctuation in Tang Ming's heart, and whined twice, looking at Tang Ming with a ghostly light in his eyes, as if he was worried about him. Tang Ming pulled back his thoughts from Yuan Piao, and simply sat on the ground, resting his head on Xiao Bai's front legs and laughing: "How good it would be to have a pack of cigarettes to smoke again, Xiao Bai ......." ”

In the face of Tang Ming's whispering, Xiao Bai couldn't answer Tang Ming, and there was still a little confusion in the dog's eyes at the moment, obviously he didn't know what the cigarette Tang Ming mentioned just now was.

On the distant horizon, the floating clouds in the sky were dyed red by the sun that had not yet risen, and Tang Ming's tightly closed eyelids twitched slightly, and suddenly opened wide. The dazzling sunlight quickly closed it, and only after he got used to the dazzling light did he slowly open it again.

There was the sound of Xiao Bai's whirring pant in his ears, and hundreds of ships on the dock below had already raised their sails and were ready, Tang Ming immediately called Xiao Bai to rush down. As soon as he got out of the tower gate, he saw Fei Xin coming in a hurry, Tang Ming smiled and went to the command ship with Fei Xin. When he got on the boat, he unexpectedly saw Zheng He's figure, and at this moment he was standing on the bow of the ship, looking at the busy sailors on the shore with expressionless faces.

Tang Ming didn't know that he was dissatisfied with his fleet, and he didn't dare to speak loudly when he didn't have the bottom in his heart: "Father-in-law, why don't you sleep for a while now, it's still a while before you go to sea, it's good for us to go to the houseboat when it's windy here." ”

Zheng He slowly turned his head, squinted at Tang Ming, who had not yet had time to wash, and said with hatred: "It's the eve of the big war, you kid can face it calmly, is this a good thing." But if you don't take the enemy seriously, then you should fight, look at the way you look like a general of the unified army, and you still sleep so late at such a moment, is this what the general of the unified army should do? ”

In the face of Zheng He's blame, Tang Ming didn't dare to let go of a fart, hehe smiled and accompanied him, so Fei Xin arranged Zheng He in the houseboat, and Tang Ming also took the opportunity to wash up.

When he returned to the houseboat after cleaning up, he saw that Zheng He had already begun to eat. Tang Ming, who was rumbling with hunger, was not polite, and sat down opposite him with a butt, and immediately someone also served him a bowl of rice porridge, with two light side dishes, Tang Ming killed three bowls in one go, so that he had the time to look at Zheng He.

Zheng He has long lost his previous slowness, and the way he eats is also comparable to Tang Ming, after all, people who run on the sea all the year round naturally can't eat like at home. When Zheng He was also full, Fei Xin also came in and said that everything was ready.

Tang Ming first asked Fei Xin to send a reconnaissance ship, and then the army left the dock and entered the sea. And Zhu Yong and Li Ba have disappeared from them, Fei Xin said that the two of them had set off last night, and there is no news yet, and I don't know where the two are doing now?

Tang Ming waved his hand and ignored the two of them, and after the dishes and chopsticks on the table were removed, he found a chart around Ryukyu Island and spread it on the table. Pointing to the place marked the location of Zhu Di's army, he said, "Father-in-law, it was the three people under your command who were ordered to encircle and suppress me this time, do you know anything about them?" ”

Zheng He seemed to be poked in the sore spot, and his face changed before he hesitated before he spoke: "These three people are the best performers in the fleet of the miscellaneous family, and now the miscellaneous family also understands why they betrayed me." If the miscellaneous family is not mistaken, the leader who came this time should be Sun Dayi, the descendant of the Sun family, as well as Lin Nan of the Lin family and Xiao Fu of the Xiao family. These three families all have official backgrounds, although their families are not big, but their power is not small, and they are among the best in the local family. ”

Tang Ming didn't think about it, so he continued: "My father-in-law said that these three people were cultivated by their family, and the reason why they betrayed your old man is also for the benefit of the family!" ”

Zheng He nodded with a calm face and said, "That's right, these three people do have a talent for sailing, and they can also be said to be the best people in the fleet, so this time you kid can be regarded as a hard scum." ”

"That father-in-law thinks that if you ascend to the heights now, how many people in the fleet will obey your orders" Tang Ming was most concerned about this issue, and he was also a little apprehensive at the moment.

Zheng He hesitated for a long time, and didn't seem to be sure, and finally simply shook his head and said: "The cronies of the miscellaneous family in the fleet have all been purged, and now the fleet must be controlled by three people, and the officer class has been replaced, so you'd better not have any hope." ”

Faced with such a result, it was obviously unexpected by Tang Ming, but to say that it had no effect at all, he didn't believe it. Tang Ming, who thought that Zheng He was too conservative, still had a lot of hope in his heart. After all, that fleet was built by Zheng He, and its prestige had long been deeply rooted in everyone in the entire fleet.

Although Tang Ming still had confidence in Zheng He, he didn't dare to bet all the treasures on it now that he mentioned it like this. With apprehension, the fleet has come to the sea area full of mines, and in front of it is where Zhu Di's army is located. (To be continued.) )
