"Your Majesty! Your Majesty is overjoyed! Your Majesty! Chen Yue trotted into Zhu Mu's office with a happy face, and then respectfully placed the news from the front on Zhu Mu's desk. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Zhu Mu rubbed his already sour eyes, looked at Chen Yue with a smile on his face, and said with an angry smile: "What I just saw is the confirmation news of the sinking of the cruiser Chaoyang Lake!" ”

As he spoke, he threw a radio message from Britain to Chen Yue, which said that the British fleet had sunk a Ming Empire cruiser near the Red Sea, achieving its first victory since the declaration of war.

Of course, for the British Empire, it was a naval victory, but for the navy of the Ming Empire, it was a painful loss.

After all, the warships in the Indian Ocean had to go through a lot of trouble to get to the Indian Ocean after bypassing Ceylon, and every sinking of each ship was an unspeakable loss.

In addition, in the distant Indian Ocean, the naval losses of the Ming Empire also meant that the British fleet reached the Strait of Malacca, and the overwhelming superiority of the British and Ceylon maritime forces over the Ming Empire's navy would soon appear.

This is like giving the Ming Empire a countdown, indicating that the balance of maritime power near the southeast peninsula is about to be broken, and the Ming Empire will fall into a disadvantage.

In any case, for the Ming Empire, or for Zhu Mu, who was in a hurry to expand, this news could definitely not be regarded as good news.

"My cruiser Chaoyang Lake fought to the last moment! I want to knight these officers and soldiers! Bonus! If I don't die for a day, I must let the British repay this blood debt! The blood debt must be paid in blood! Zhu Mu gritted his teeth and spoke.

He said, clenching his fists. This is a manifestation of his extreme anger, and those who often go in and out of His Majesty the Emperor's office know that the emperor at this time is very difficult to mess with.

"Wang Jue's attack speed on the Southeast Peninsula is still too slow! It's too slow! As he spoke, he stood up, walked to the huge map hanging beside him, and pressed his fist against the southeast peninsula of the map.

Chen Yue looked a little anxious when he saw Zhu Mu's expression, so he hurriedly opened his mouth and comforted: "Your Majesty! Wang Jue has done his best on the Southeast Peninsula......"

"I know he's done his best! But he should have done better! Better! Zhu Mu complained a little angrily, and then restrained his emotions.

As a king, he is becoming more and more mature, can control his emotions very skillfully, and can reasonably arrange his own channels to vent.

"That's it! Don't persuade me, I know that Wang Jue's entanglement with Miao Shengye's fox in the Southeast Peninsula is a very tricky thing in itself. After venting for a few seconds, the king of the Ming Empire returned to his usual appearance.

When he turned to look at Chen Yue, his face was no longer angry and fierce, and he became unfazed: "If Miao Shengye was easy to deal with, he wouldn't have let Ge Tianzhang spend so many years." ”

After saying this casually, Zhu Mu walked to Chen Yue's side with his back, looked at the spy leader who bowed his head and was silent, and then reached out and picked up the telegram that Chen Yue had just placed on the table.

"Capture Pyongyang? That's good news. The moment he threw away the message, Zhu Mu's face was already smiling, he seemed to be very satisfied with this report, and seemed to be more confident that he would win this war.

"It seems that under my command, in addition to Wang Jue, there are also Yang Zizhen, and Zhang Jianjun!" Hearing the news that Pyongyang had arrived, Zhu Mu was in a good mood and said this casually.

He said this casually, and his subordinates couldn't just listen to it. Chen Yue raised his eyebrows, as if he had heard a thunderbolt in his heart, and he was so shocked that he forgot to speak.

"In addition to Wang Jue, there is also Yang Zizhen? And Zhang Jianjun? What did this mean when it came out of the emperor's mouth? Does it mean that Admiral Wang Jue, who grew up with His Majesty the Emperor, is no longer favored?

Could it be that His Majesty the Emperor has deliberately stopped the offensive of attacking the Southeast Peninsula and has begun to think of unilateral peace with Britain and Ceylon?

Chen Yueke is a person with a clear mind and exquisite faces, and his action of raising his eyebrows is only for a moment, and he has already calculated several possibilities in his heart.

But now, the emperor didn't reveal more information, and he couldn't guess casually, so he could only leave a foundation in his heart, and even his wife and children couldn't talk about it......

It was the moment Chen Yue raised his eyebrows, Zhu Mu's eyes happened to see this subtle movement, and then Zhu Mu realized that he might have said the wrong thing.

He was embarrassed for a moment, and then he commanded, "What do you want?" I am exaggerating to build an army to capture Pyongyang, and Yang Zizhen to capture Wonsan! Don't get it wrong! ”

Knowing that his mind was seen through by Zhu Mu, Chen Yue didn't explain, lowered his head deeper, bent down and said, "What did Your Majesty say?" The minister was distracted just now......"

"Hah!" Helplessly nodding the cunning Chen Yue with his finger, Zhu Mu laughed and then teased: "You are a person, you are always slippery, so that people can't catch the slightest flaw." ”

Chen Yue didn't speak, just stood and waited for Zhu Mu's words. After Zhu Mu commented a few words, he always wanted to return to the topic.

Sure enough, Zhu Mu did not continue to dwell on what he said casually wrong, but talked about the front-line battle situation: "The supplies to the southeast and North Korea, don't change anything, it's still normal rationing!" You go tell Wang Jianfeng about this, do you understand? ”

"Yes! Your Majesty! Chen Yue nodded in agreement.

"Promotion ...... Zhang Jianjun, with the rank of lieutenant general; also give Yang Zizhen a lieutenant general, and Feng Pingzhang, the commander of the 29th Group Army, is also old...... Three people together. Zhu Mu weighed it for a while, and finally swallowed another name on his lips.

Hearing these three names, Chen Yue certainly heard the true voice of His Majesty the Emperor after being promoted to three lieutenant generals. The three generals on the Korean Peninsula were promoted in one go, but there was not even the slightest movement on the Southeast Peninsula, which is worth thinking about.

"After all, Your Majesty still has no quick solution to the Southeast Peninsula, and he has a grudge in his heart. This is to use the reason for promotion to knock on the commanders on the Southeast Peninsula......" Chen Yue's heart quickly came up with his own answer.

"Don't guess, I can't help it." Zhu Mu smiled bitterly and turned around, so that Chen Yue couldn't see his expression: "Use this method to urge my friend." ”
