It can be seen that Chongzhen can't wait for sea trade.

As a courtier, Li Luo naturally wanted to proceed from reality and let the navy fully mature before setting off, so as to ensure safety. In addition, the recent anti-smuggling in the offshore waters has more or less ensured the income of customs tariffs, which should be considered a good result.

It's just that Chongzhen was shocked by the republic's sailing experience, envious and jealous, and his brain was feverish and confused.

Then as a courtier, he can only choose to compromise and then find a way to wipe his ass for him.

"It's okay to try, but the minister really doesn't guarantee that it will be safe." Li Luo smiled bitterly.

"As Aiqing said, how can this sea be 100% safe? So be it, let them slowly go south along the offshore waters! Chongzhen set the tone.

Then the rest of the matter is naturally how to organize the manpower and quickly arrange the things to go to sea.

Perhaps Chongzhen was really anxious, so the fleet left the port in ten days and headed south.

But I didn't want to, at this time, I just sent back the bad news that seven of the more than twenty ships brought back by the private fleet had returned. After Chongzhen saw it, he ridiculed the republic, saying that they put the military industry first and commerce as the focus, so the people were greedy, and this can be regarded as a bad fruit, right?

Then, he couldn't laugh anymore, his own fleet, why not be the same as this private fleet?

I felt faintly uneasy in my heart, but the fleet had gone far away, and it was impossible to catch up...... For the sake of today's plan, we can only pray that nothing will happen......

It is said that good spirits are not bad spirits, and three days later, a tattered fortune ship entered Shandong Port, but it was one of the ships of the Ming Ocean Trade Force. The seamen hurriedly disembarked in order to say one thing: the treasure ship had been robbed by the Hongyi, that is, the Dutch!

When Shi Kefa, the new governor of the city's shipping department, heard about this, he immediately took the survivors on this ship and rushed to Beijing City for 800 miles to report the matter to the emperor.

Chongzhen suddenly heard that his fleet was gone, and the whole person suddenly felt that the heavens and the earth were spinning, the sun and the moon were dark, and he was directly paralyzed on the throne. finally relieved his breath, and suddenly his face was flushed, which was directly angry. At this moment, he wanted to know who made a move on the Ming Navy, and how the Ming Navy was defeated by the other party!

In the face of the emperor's anger, the crew was so frightened that they fell to their knees on the ground, and after Li Luo's many encouragements and comforts, they were finally able to speak.

It turned out that with the rise of the Netherlands, coupled with the great natural disasters and man-made disasters, there was no time to take care of Taiwan, so the Dutch not only occupied Taiwan, but also directly drove away the Spaniards who were entrenched in it. I was thinking about using this as a base, whether it was going back and forth to the New World, or going to Japan to do business, or even plundering the Daming coast, but I didn't want to get the news, a group of rookies at sea started to go south from Shandong.

Interestingly, it was none other than Zheng Zhilong who reported the news, but Chongzhen would not know about this.

The reason for the notification was only because the southward movement of the Ming Navy directly violated his interests. However, in order not to tear his face with the Ming Dynasty, a regime that was even more powerful than Nan Zhili, and especially when he realized that the fleet under his seat seemed to be helpless against the Ming Navy, Zheng Zhilong chose to tell the Dutch the news.

The Dutch knew that the other party was a rookie on the sea, and they were going south to trade with a lot of silk, porcelain, tea, etc., so they naturally wanted to rob it.

So there was a mental calculation or no intention, the far sea hit the near sea, and when he was caught off guard, the two sides met.

The Ming navy's concept of naval warfare was still relatively general and inexperienced, coupled with the fact that the Fuchuan dragged it back, and the Dutch sailing ship with good performance quickly seized the advantageous position and shelled the Fufu. Seven of the ten ships were sunk, and the remaining three scattered and fled. The three Daming treasure ships were also shot multiple times, and they were covered with bruises.

In such a situation, the two sides launched a gang jumping battle.

The navy of the Ming Dynasty was even more unaccustomed to such a situation, so in the case of gang jumping, it was robbed by this group of sea hooligans with less and more with less.

This qiē was naturally seen by the three lucky ships that had escaped before, but at this moment they no longer had the ability to fight, so they could only flee north cautiously, hoping to return to Daming and report this matter.

But he didn't want to, Zheng Zhilong had been waiting for them to be caught, and sent someone to intercept them early.

Two of the ships did their best to cover the third ship, and in this way the third ship broke away from the battle line and returned to Shandong in a panic. Otherwise, I am afraid that Daming will be on the board for half a year, and I don't know that my treasure ship will fall into the hands of others like this.

But even if you know, it doesn't make much sense, at this moment the navy of the Ming Dynasty is completely paralyzed, and a new fortune ship has not been able to be built. Coupled with this mistake, I am afraid that Congress will not allow the continuation of ocean trade. Chongzhen can say that even if his heart is full of grievances, he can only accept it.

"Your Majesty, if you want to deal with the Netherlands, Weichen has another idea, but I don't know if the other party is fooled." Li Luo knew what Chongzhen was depressed about, so he came to him and wanted him to report.

"Say!" At this moment, Chongzhen wants to find bad luck in the Netherlands.

"The Republic has always claimed to be the first in the world for the Chinese nation, and naturally it does not want the Chinese people to be harmed at the hands of the barbarians. It is only necessary to reveal the news of the robbery of the treasure ship by the Dutch, whether it is for the treasure ship or to rescue the Chinese in the hands of the Dutch, they are afraid that they will be dispatched. Not to mention, their navy is roaming around the South Seas, ready to go north at any time. However, it is not completely without side effects...... The biggest possibility is that they will take Taiwan and then build it into their stronghold, so that our Shandong will also be within the range of the other side, and when the time comes, it will really be a flank from the front and back, and there will be no way back at all. Li Luo told his thoughts and consequences.

"Even if we could go to sea, do you think we are a match for their fleet...... So be it! "Chongzhen knows the lesser of two evils.

With Chongzhen's permission, Li Luo naturally sent someone to spread the news as soon as possible, but in more than two days, the news was known to Zhang Hongbin.

"Murder with a knife? This Da Ming also knows how to use his brain?! Zhang Hongbin raised his eyebrows and looked at the information in his hand with interest.

"The question now is, whether we want to go or not." Zhang Hongwu stood up from his parliamentary seat and asked.

"We Huaxia people, why are we bullied by foreigners? Besides, taking Taiwan will also be beneficial to our strategy in the East China Sea and Southeast Asia, isn't it? Zhang Hongbin said with a smile.

Zhang Hongbin stood up, waved his hand, and announced loudly: "Send troops to destroy the Dutch entrenched in Taiwan for me!" ”
