Chapter 121: Learn Now and Sell Now

At the same time that Australia was preparing to carry out military deterrence against the Zheng family, the Zheng family also received news through their own channels, knowing that the Australian veteran would drive the warship over immediately.

Now that all the staff of the Quanzhou consulate have been transferred to Guangzhou, the Zheng family originally wanted to seize them as a coercion to force Australia to compromise, but when they went, they found that they were gone.

Regarding the Zheng family's actions against Australia, Zheng Sen, the eldest son of the Zheng family, was extremely disagreeable, and at this time, the national surname who still had some scholarly spirit was extremely unpleasant to the behavior of his father and uncles.

In the days of communication with Australians, Zheng Dagongzi has a feeling of hairy Dunka, because he can always learn from any Australian that he never dared to think or listen to things and methods, and even those legendary skills that only immortals have, are nothing in the eyes of Australians.

"Father, there have been rumors recently that Australians will come soon, do we have to deal with it?"

In the courtyard of the Zheng family in Fuzhou, Zheng Sen came from outside the door, obviously he had just gotten the news, and he was not unaware of the recent contradictions between the Zheng family and the Australians.

"Sen'er, it seems that you have really grown up, and you know that you are worried about your father, so sit down and talk." Zheng Zhilong smiled and pointed to a chair for Zheng Sen to sit down.

In fact, Zheng Zhilong has long known this news, as the head of the Zheng family group, when he decided to strike at the Zhao family, the agent of the Australians, he took into account the consequences, and in his expectation, the Australians may compromise, after all, it is impossible to offend the Zheng family for the sake of a Zhao family, and Australia just wants an agent, and the Zheng family can also do it.

It's just that the situation is a little different from what the Zheng brothers thought, the Australians seem to be particularly interested in the Zhao family, and directly cut off the supply of Australian goods for the Zhao family. He even threatened to bear the consequences for himself.

Hehe, bear the consequences, the Zheng family brothers started as pirates, and they have never been afraid of anyone, even if the imperial court can only solicit the Zheng family back then, you dare to threaten yourself as a small overseas country in Australia, it is too arrogant.

The Zheng family also immediately fought back against Australia's actions, conducting stricter inventory and seizure of the Zhao family's fleet, and even directly taking the Australian goods as their own.

"Father, this Australia has a giant ship cannon, we have to defend it, according to the child's view, we not only have to strengthen the shore defense battery, but also set up a long tongue formation outside the port to meet the enemy, and then use the advantage of my Zheng family's ships to encircle the Australian giant ship."

Zheng Sen said that the naval tactics were the wolf pack tactics learned from Zhang Tianwen, and he was quite interested in this combat method at that time, Zhang Tianwen was a half-hung naval fan, so he had to tell him the tactics of the German Navy in World War II according to the clips in the movie, but he didn't expect Zheng Sen to use it at this time, Zhang Tianwen would definitely vomit blood if he was here.

"Sen'er, I learned this method from the Australians." Zheng Zhilong also knows a little about his son's close relationship with Australians, and is said to be quite interested in Australians' books on the art of war.

"Exactly, Father, what do you think of this method," Zheng Sen did not hide that he learned this method from Australians, but replied very honestly.

"Sen'er, do you think this method is good?"

"Yes, the boy thinks it's good."

"Well, then do you know what the Australian giant ship sails by, it does not rely on sails and oars, and it is flexible when sailing on the sea, which is different from the clumsinessness of Western warships and my Ming sailboats." Zheng Zhilong's words seem to have studied the Australian giant ship, otherwise he would never have been able to say it.

"What my father said is that if there is only one Australian giant ship, we should use this tactic to encircle the giant ship and use Australian tactics to deal with the Australians." It's also thanks to Zheng Sen that he can think of it, but Zheng Zhilong seems to think more than he thinks.

The excitement and sailing speed of the Australian giant ship are not comparable to their own warships, such a battleship, isn't it looking for death with this tactic?

"Sen'er, this tactic is not suitable for my Zheng family's battle, if my Zheng family's ships really use this tactic, they will become a live target for the Australian giant ship at sea."

"Father, how do you say that?" Zheng Sen was obviously a little unconvinced by his father's words.

However, Zheng Zhilong was not annoyed by this, but patiently explained that the Australian giant ship is equipped with artillery, the range is extremely long, and the giant ship can change direction at any time, you can talk about whether this tactic is available or not.

After listening to his father's explanation, Zheng Sen fell into thought, theoretically speaking, his father's words seemed to be right, after all, he had rich experience in naval warfare.

"What the father said is that the child is thinking too simply, and I don't know how the father is going to deal with it."

Zheng Zhilong heard his son ask, and said with a confident smile: "I have been prepared for my father, the Australian giant ship is fast, the artillery is sharp, and it is also at sea, and my Zheng family's ships are all docked at the port of Inner Bend, how can it help me." ”

As soon as he heard that his father actually used this tactic, Zheng Sen couldn't help but be a little speechless, if the battleship didn't go to sea, then the Australian giant ship couldn't sail to the port.

"Sen'er, do you think this method is inappropriate?" Zheng Zhilong looked at the expression on his son's face and didn't seem to agree.

"Father, the child just thinks it's inappropriate, if the Australian giant ship sails to the port, my Zheng family battleship won't even have the chance to go to sea to fight."

"This is what my father has thought about a long time ago, so my Zheng family's ships can't go to sea, they must form a long snake formation in the port, as long as the giant ship comes to the port, the shore defense battery and the ship's cannon can fire at the Australian giant ship at the same time, and it is difficult for the Australian giant ship to deal with the power of hundreds of artillery salvos on my Zheng family's fleet."

Zheng Zhilong was proud to introduce his own method like his son, in his opinion, as long as the Australian giant ship dared to approach, it would be blown into ashes, even if it was iron.

Zheng Sen still felt inappropriate about his father's approach, because according to what he learned from Zhang Tianwen, the range of Australian artillery could completely go to war outside the range of the Zheng family's artillery, and if such tactics were really followed, it would be equivalent to the Zheng family giving up the opportunity to meet the battle at sea.

However, my father's reminder is also correct, if you want to go to sea to face the battle, it is difficult to defeat Australia, judging from the current situation, it is more appropriate to go to my father's method, at least you can defend in the port, and you will not directly face the giant ship on the sea.

It's just that I don't know if this Australia is coming with a giant ship, to be honest, if it weren't for the imminent war between the two sides, Zheng Sen would really want to take a look at the giant ship and see what it is driven by.
