Jiangxia did not dare to divide his troops to guard the four ports from Fuzhou to Quanzhou. And in the same way, the Francophone ...... Or Wang Zhi, they would not dare to divide their forces to attack the four ports from Fuzhou to Quanzhou at the same time.

Unless they already knew that Jiang Xia had only sent troops to garrison one of the four ports, such a thing would never happen.

Because they divide their forces to attack, they will definitely win.

On Penghu Island, Ge Siming, who knew Wang Zhi's identity, simply designated a war room for him and asked his five battalion commanders to obey Wang Zhi's command.

Gosmin has done a good job in boldly employing people and delegating power. Perhaps this is also a quality peculiar to the Portuguese, or to Europeans as a whole. It's not good or bad, but in the end, they will be more willing to let someone who is proficient in one thing be responsible for that thing, rather than pretending to understand and indiscriminately directing the insider.

After Wang Zhi took over the command handed over by Gosmin, he did not rush to choose which port to attack before Fuzhou to Quanzhou as soon as possible, but first asked people to take a look outside the waters of Fuzhou.

The spies who went to inquire did not dare to approach, but could only look at it from a distance.

After returning home, he reported to Wang Zhi that the waters outside Fuzhou were heavily defended, and the warships blocked the entire sea area of the port, and the ships were full of soldiers.

After hearing the news, Wang Zhi was excited. He got up and walked to the coastal map of Fujian that was hung up in the war room, turned his head and said to the five battalion commanders in the room: "Look at it, we are now guarding Penghu Island, and we can attack any of the four ports in Fujian at any time.

If I'm not mistaken, the other side must have deployed troops to defend all four ports by now. But they are not strong enough to defeat any port we attack.

I guess the port of Fuzhou must be the most heavily defended now, so let's choose the port of Quanzhou first. This is the closest to our Penghu Island, and the sea area is open. In case, in case the attack does not go well, we can also calmly retreat, and there will not be much to lose. ”

"The first target of the attack is the port of Quanzhou, and you go and carry out the order." Wang Zhidao.

The five battalion commanders got up in unison, gave a military salute to Wang Zhi, and left the room.

Of course, one of the five of them will definitely go to Gosmin to ask whether he really attacked according to what Wang Zhi said.

Gosmin quickly agreed with Wang Zhi's analysis and asked the five battalion commanders to immediately arrange an attack on the port of Quanzhou.

Rushing from Penghu Island to Quanzhou Port, and from Caoxiazhou Inland River back to Quanzhou Port, the distance between the two sides is not far apart.

And Ma Yunlong also went out a day earlier, so he arrived at the port of Quanzhou faster than the Franco. This day's time is very precious, so that Ma Yunlong can contact the defenders of Quanzhou and calmly deploy defenses together.

On Penghu Island, Gosmin and Wang Zhi were standing on the pier. Although Gosmin spoke Chinese a little awkwardly, he could still understand what he meant by listening carefully and guessing with listening.

Gosming said: "Mr. Wang Zhi, do you think that this time our soldiers can come back with wealth, slaves and women?" ”

"Yes! Absolutely! Wang Zhi replied in the affirmative without hesitation, and he said: "We are gathering all our forces and only attacking one place. And they are scattering all their forces, stretching the front and defending all around. The strength of their naval division was only 8,000, and when dispersed, there were only 2,000 in each port.

There are the largest officials of the Ming Dynasty in the port of Fuzhou, so it is certain that more troops will be invested, and Fuzhou should have 5,000 troops. In this way, each of the remaining ports should have only a thousand troops. We have 5,000 men fighting 1,000 men, the ship is strong, and the cannonballs are powerful. I can't find any reason to fail. ”

"I hope it is as you wish, Mr. Wang Zhi, but if unfortunately we are defeated, you will have to die." Gosmin said simply and bluntly.

The fleet of the Franc machine man had just entered the sea area of the port of Quanzhou, and before it could react, it was subjected to heavy shelling.

Franco-man did not hesitate and immediately fought back.

The Daming Navy Division fought and retreated, and only after attracting the Franc machine man to go deep began to show his full strength and let go of bombing.

Fujian Linhai, shipbuilding industry. Although Fran cannons and artillery cannons may not be available in large quantities on a temporary basis, shells are still readily available.

Even if you can't buy it, it won't take much time to temporarily let some black workshops in Fujian make zuò temporarily.

After an artillery battle between the two sides, the bombardment was indiscriminate. The mutual losses are almost the same, but after all, there are many people and more ships and more shells in the Ming Navy, so it is still a greater loss to the Franc machine.

The artillery battle stopped, and the Francophone did not hesitate to wave the flag and chose to retreat.

They are experienced in naval warfare, so they don't need to engage in the next broadside battle at all, and they can accurately judge it by virtue of the strength of the opponent during the artillery battle. The opponent's forces and the number of warships far exceeded their own side.

Wang Zhi and Ge Ming, who had been waiting on Penghu Island for five days, finally received the news of the fleet's return on the morning of the sixth day.

The two men immediately went to the dock and waited.

On the sea, the morning sun rises just above the horizon, breaking through the thick fog that envelops the entire sea.

The naval fleet of Franc planes, with the Trident of Sea King, slowly approached the pier under the reflection of the rising sun.

This scene really has the feeling that the warriors have won a big victory and returned triumphantly.

Rendered by such an atmosphere, Gosmin couldn't help but sigh: "What a beautiful morning sun, shining on the heroic warriors to return." What a beautiful sea, carrying warships forward with waves. What a nice sea breeze, blowing on the sails......"

Before Gosmin finished singing the poem, the whole person was suddenly stunned.

The waterline of the fleet ahead was shallow, and it did not look like it was full of treasure at all. On the deck of the ship, the morale of the soldiers was low, and it looked like they had won a battle.

Seeing this scene, Wang Zhi's eyelids also jumped, and a bad premonition rose in his heart.

The fleet soon docked, and the five battalion commanders immediately jumped out of the boat, walked up to Gosmin and saluted and reported: "Report to the corps commander, we have been fooled." The naval forces in the port of Quanzhou are sufficient, at least more than double ours.

The number of warships is also sufficient, more than double ours. Our fleet has suffered a heavy blow, and the soldiers have suffered heavy casualties! ”

"What?" Gosmin trembled with anger.

After taking a deep breath, he immediately pointed at Wang Zhi and ordered: "Immediately arrest this person, put him on the stake and roast it into charcoal!" ”

"Yes!" The five battalion commanders immediately walked towards Wang Zhi.

But who is Wang Zhi? How can you just stop there?

He turned his body in place, kicked several times like lightning, and directly kicked the five battalion commanders upside down and flew out. Then Wang Zhi grabbed Gosmin's throat and said, "Fujian's troops are definitely not enough, I didn't lie to you." Now that such a situation is born, Jiang Xia must have chosen to take risks. ”

"Do you think I'll ever trust you again? You liar, no matter how good you are, I'll see if you can beat our muskets!" ”

While Gosmin was talking, the Francoji soldiers who had just come ashore had already surrounded Wang Zhi.

Wang Zhi said angrily: "You still haven't understood? Jiang Xia was simply short of troops, and he must have analyzed that the port of Quanzhou would be our first target, so he ignored the other three ports and directly put all his troops in the port of Quanzhou.

Now Fuzhou Port, Xiahu Port, Daxing Port, these three ports are definitely not defended. We only need to choose an empty port to attack now, and then we can drive straight into the belly of Fujian, instead of grabbing a little thing and capturing a few people on the shore. ”

Wang Zhi is indeed powerful, and he can guess Jiang Xia's response at once.

He said it carefully, and it made sense. Gosmin was silent for a while, and finally said, "Okay, I'll trust you again." Then you say, which port will we hit next? ”

Wang Zhi couldn't think of which port to hit for a while, he thought for a while and said, "Let me go to the war room and look at the nautical chart again." ”

"Good!" Gosmin nodded in agreement.

Wang Zhi finally let go of him slowly, and when his hand was completely released, Gosmin unexpectedly slapped him.

Gosmin said angrily: "You remember, if you pinch my neck again in the future, I will kill you no matter what you say!" ”

Fuzhou, Manfu Building.

When the Franco fleet had not fully returned to Penghu Island, the flying pigeon transmission sent from Quanzhou had already reached Jiangxia's hands.

For the first time, the bet was right.

But now everyone not only did not feel the slightest lightness, but their faces were heavy.

Because for the first time, I can still rely on analysis to guess the target of the Franc machine's attack. But what about this second time? Can you continue to gamble?

Jiang Xia stared at the four ports for nearly two hours again.

In the end, Jiang Xia said: "Seize Penghu Island and attack Quanzhou Port first." This can't be what the red-haired ghost himself can think of, there must be a master behind it.

But if his first attack fails, then he must be in a hurry to show himself in front of the Franc machine man in order to win back a city.

If you want to show yourself, you have to have a huge harvest to win back a city. Among the four ports, only Fuzhou has the most abundant harvest. This second one, we will bet on Fuzhou! Immediately use the flying pigeon to pass the book, summon all the sailors to return to Fuzhou! ”

"Yes!" After the wind howled, he immediately retreated.

On Penghu Island, Wang Zhi finally made up his mind after reading the nautical charts.

He said to Gosming: "Commander, let's attack Fuzhou next." Fuzhou now not only has one of the biggest officials of the Ming Dynasty, but also has a lot of wealth.

How can I describe the amount of wealth to you, I tell you. The wealth of Fuzhou, with your fleet, all the ships are full, and only half of them can be loaded. ”

When Gosmin heard this, his breath was short. He looked at Wang Zhi with some suspicion and said, "I hope you didn't guess wrong this time." ”
