Perhaps because of the suffering of the Ming Dynasty's undeclared war, the Manchu Qing Dynasty has not worked intelligence work in the past two years.

Then again, Daming mobilized the army again this time, and began to mobilize the navy in full swing, if you don't know about such a big thing, it's just blind.

The Manchu court, which received the news, also began to discuss this matter.

Because Fu Lin was too young, the Manchu Qing Dynasty studied the Ming Dynasty and formed a Congress, but just like the imperial cabinet formed at the end of the Manchu Dynasty, this so-called Congress was mainly composed of the Manchu nobles, the imperial family and a few important ministers. A handful of outsiders could not influence the decisions of the National Assembly at all, so in the end the National Assembly was still serving the best interests of the Manchurians.

In this parliament, which is composed of royal families and nobles, Fan Wencheng and Zheng Zhilong are impressively listed. However, they were also in a difficult situation, and to raise objections was to offend people, and the most important thing was that if their opinions were not satisfactory to the Manchu royal family and nobles, then even if he and Zheng Zhilong agreed, they would not be allowed to pass in the end. If you don't know guò, you will offend these Manchurian masters, and God knows when you will be stumbled.

The two can only try their best to work hard for the strength of the Manchu Qing on the premise of maintaining a minimum standard, and they know that they have been completely tied to the Manchu Qing, which is both glory and humiliation, and there is nothing to regret.

"I have received accurate information before, and the Ming Dynasty is intensively preparing for the army and navy, and it is very likely that they will attack abroad. If, according to the initial intelligence, the Ming Dynasty wanted to attack the Republic, there would be no need to mobilize the navy at all. Therefore, there are only two possibilities for this goal: either Nan Zhili or us. Fan Wencheng naturally wanted to be the first to speak, after all, he is also leading the intelligence work now.

"Why not Nan Zhili?" At this time, someone actually asked such a brain-dead question, and if you look closely, you are still the current patriarch of the Niu Kulu clan.

It can be seen that when this person said this, the royal family turned their heads to the side, and they were afraid that they would be thinking in their hearts: How did Eyidu give birth to such a waste son, with his IQ, he should simply give up the position of patriarch to others.

It's just that strictly calculated, there are really a lot of stupid X's like this. At the beginning, in order to thin up the power of some royal families, and also to be able to win over these Manchu families, their families were allowed to send people to join the parliament. But the ** part of the people are illiterate and can only use their muscles to speak, so most of the nobles who joined in are so virtuous. Maybe it's not all like this, but there will always be such stupid X.

"If you attack Nanzhili, you need to worry about attacks from the Republic and other forces. But if they deal with us, no one will dare to harass them as long as they are called national wars. The most important thing is that we almost took Dengzhou not long ago, which really scared him for a while, now that the battle on the front line has ended, I am afraid that we are going to come back and settle accounts with our autumn queen at this moment, right? Besides, although there are not many minerals in Wajima, compared to not being able to go south at all, fly legs are also a piece of meat, right? This Ming Dynasty has been suffering financially for so long, so you always need some extra money, right? Fan Wencheng also wanted to complain, but the other party was a Manchurian master, and he, a minion, couldn't complain.

"That makes sense!" That stupid X is not yet self-conscious.

The speaker who presided over the Congress, Mang Gurtai, even had the intention of forking out this waste, how could the huge Niu Kulu clan come out with such a waste? Look at what this is, others are going to attack themselves, and it makes sense to fight.

"Now that Da Ming has begun to prepare, then I naturally can't sit still. Let's discuss how to deal with Daming. Babutai couldn't stand it anymore, so he simply brought the topic back.

"Actually, it's very simple, as long as we can defeat the opponent's navy, and then land in Tianjin, then the troops will be directed at the city of Beijing, and the Northern Expeditionary troops will have to come back obediently even if they can't think of it. However, in order to ensure that there are no worries, at least manpower is arranged on the Yalu River side to carefully resist the invasion of the enemy. Fan Wencheng expressed his opinion.

"Everyone, what do you think of this opinion?" Mang Gurtai asked.

The whole Congress has become a vegetable market at the moment, noisy and noisy, but finally gave an opinion three minutes later: yes!

"Now that you have agreed to the minion's proposal, there is only one question that needs to be paid attention to: whether we take the initiative to attack the Ming Navy, or wait for the other party to come over and clean up the other party. One thing that needs to be mentioned is that there seem to be a lot of storms in recent times. Fan Wencheng continued to mention.

In fact, there is only one consequence of his suggestion, and that is that it is impossible to make a sortie.

Storms are the most feared thing for all seafarers, and they are even more devastating to these almost impermeable Manchurians. Even if there is Zheng Zhilong's navy to help, but now that Zheng Zhilong has joined the Manchu Qing Dynasty, there will naturally be Manchu people on the main battleships. Naturally, these manchurian masters will not be allowed to go to sea during the storm-prone period. And Zheng Zhilong should have also suffered from joining the Manchu Qing Dynasty, but now it is no longer up to him to call the shots.

The rest of the time is basically garbage time, after all, everyone can see that it is naturally impossible to take the initiative to attack, so think about how to destroy the enemy at your own doorstep.

At this moment, the Manchu Qing Dynasty has regarded Wadao as their own back garden. Speaking of which, the indigenous regime on the island has been almost wiped out, and the Japanese people have finally tasted the side effects of the Warring States period. In the past, no one was interested in him overseas, and under the retreat of the Tokugawa shogunate, he slowly recovered his vitality, but now he was attacked by the Manchu Qing Dynasty before his vitality was restored.

The Ming navy was assembled, and it was also facing the problem of wind and wind. Even if others don't know, Zheng Chenggong, who has been walking on the sea with his father all year round, is naturally very familiar with this stormy weather. Judging from the current climate situation, there will be non-stop storms in the short term of a month or two, and no one can say when the storm will rise and when it will calm down.

In recent years, due to the Xiaoice era, the climate has cooled, and there has even been a large-scale drought in the north. At the same time, the wind in the East China Sea has become even stronger. If Zheng Chenggong hadn't been accustomed to such a climate, ordinary admirals would really not dare to sail in such a climate. If you are more conservative, it is likely that you will wait until two or three months before you start the expedition.

It's just that when the time comes, the daylilies are cold.

"Ming Yan, it seems that the East China Sea is a stormy season at the moment, how should you face this time when you go to sea to fight?" Before setting out, Chongzhen found Zheng Chenggong.

This must be asked, and it is even very likely that the arrangement of the expedition will be revised according to Zheng Chenggong's answer.

"Back to your majesty, the wind belt does not cover the entire waterway. And there is not only one island of Kyushu in the Wa Kingdom, we can go to the Ryukyus first, reorganize supplies there, and then go directly to Honshu Island. The vast sea is not without benefits, it does not have any obstacles, as long as the direction is not wrong, then it is natural to go how you want, whether it is a detour or a direct kill, the means that can eliminate the other party to the greatest extent are the best means. Zheng Chenggong replied.

"It is worthy of being the commander of my Ming Dynasty, this naval battle depends on you!" Chongzhen said with relief.

"The minister is a minister of the Ming Dynasty, and it is natural to serve the country." Zheng Chenggong replied modestly.

The next day, the navy departed on time and arrived in the Ryukyus the next afternoon.

It was once occupied by the Japanese people, and now it is also guarded by a samurai sent by the Shimazu family, who is actually the emperor of the land. Because of its remote location and lack of resources, the Manchus were not yet able to look down on it. Or maybe the Manchus were now bent on eliminating the Japanese regime, so they didn't have the heart to take care of a small island that had been destroyed.

"Kill!" The Ming Navy came to the vicinity of the Ryukyus, and seeing that the other party reacted quickly and began to dispatch sea ships, Zheng Chenggong shouted.

To deal with this kind of remnants of the Japanese, who were inferior to the Ming Dynasty in both hull and artillery, and the naval battle command was not as powerful as Zheng Chenggong, and the whole battle was announced to retire in half an hour. With the exception of a few who fled back to shore, the others were either sunk or captured.

"Since the Japanese have no time to take care of this family, let's take this Ryukyu first!" When Zheng Chenggong landed in the navy, he mentioned to Lu Xiangsheng.

"But this Ryukyu has always been a subject country of my Ming Dynasty......" Lu Xiangsheng was still a little concerned.

"The Ryukyus have long since destroyed the country, and since this republic can destroy other people's countries, and the Manchu Qing can destroy the country, why can't we destroy the country? Isn't the strength of a country grown in this step-by-step invasion and occupation? Could it be that we have come all the way, spent countless money and human lives to come here, and paid the price of blood to take this place, just because they are our original subjects, and we gave away our spoils of war for the sake of that useless face? Zheng Chenggong is somewhat dissatisfied with Daming, a somewhat traditional general.

In fact, Lu Xiangsheng was born as a literati...... But at the moment, he is a military general, and he is also a military commander, so it is difficult to refute anything.

The rest is easy to say, the army held back on the ship for so long, and after they disembarked with a full fighting spirit, after half a day's rest, they immediately launched an offensive. Within two days, Ryukyu changed hands and became the inherent territory of the Ming Dynasty.

After sending people back to explain the matter, and asking the Ming Dynasty to send special officials to govern and defend the Ryukyus, the army began to move north. At eight o'clock in the evening, the mainland was discovered, and if the theodolite was correct, it should be the island of Honshu, and not far in front of it was Edo, which later became Tokyo.

"Boys, get ready to land!" Zheng Chenggong confirmed it again and again through the telescope, and then turned around and shouted.

"Oh!" Everyone roared in joy.
