Although Zhu Jun is not smart, but after careful analysis, he feels more and more that the information sent by the two merchants is not a lie, and a large part of the reason why the Dutch Malacca fleet did not attack immediately is that they have not obtained relevant information about Dawei City, they must be lurking somewhere, as long as the spies lurking in Dawei have news, they will attack immediately. This chapter is available for online reading ()

What made Zhu Jun a headache was that his main forces had all gone south to Malacca, and there were less than 3,000 soldiers in the city, and most of them were recruits with no combat experience, only the mountain battalion led by Li Xiao could barely fight. Now the two sides are like two swordsmen who don't want to die, Zhu Jun's sailor raids each other's hearts like a sharp sword, and the Dutch also sent the elite to smash their heads, who can win, only to see whose action is faster, who can raid the opponent's lair first.

"Shopkeeper Huang." Zhu Jun smiled very politely at Shopkeeper Huang, the information brought by Shopkeeper Huang was too precious: "Thanks to you this time, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable." Zhu Jun expressed his gratitude, and then said: "I still want to invite Mr. Huang, I hope Mr. Huang will not refuse." ”

The shopkeeper Huang said: "Although Your Majesty commands, the little ones are also Han people." It is a small honor to be able to do things for the emperor. ”

Zhu Jun turned his head sideways and looked at Habuda on the side: "What about the shopkeeper of Habuda?" ”

Habuda bowed and pressed his chest: "Sumatra is a subject country of the Ming Dynasty, and the villain and the Huang shopkeeper are business partners, since the Huang shopkeeper should inherit it, the villain is also willing to serve His Majesty." ”

"Very well, if this is done, I will never treat you badly." Zhu Jun was secretly happy in his heart, and patted Habuda's shoulder and encouraged.

After being received by the Ming Emperor, the Huang shopkeeper and Habuda were greatly encouraged, and when they walked out of this not majestic palace, it was already evening, but this did not affect their plans, and soon, they summoned a carriage on the long street not far from the palace, and in the newly built Dawei City, this kind of carriage with small carriages can be seen everywhere in the streets and alleys. They are not the property of the wealthy, but a kind of existence similar to the taxis of later generations, and for a little money, you can get to every corner of Dawei City by horse-drawn carriage or a one-man rickshaw, and the roads here are all concrete, so they are not bumpy. The speed of the car is not slow, and it has become very popular in Dawei Castle recently.

After a few teas, the carriage stopped in front of the largest liquor store in the city, and the two of them got out of the carriage and entered the liquor store.

The liquor store is one of the most well-informed places, and as the largest liquor store in the city, it is impossible for a Dutch spy to arrange for someone to listen to the news here.

After the two sat down, they ordered wine and food like an old friend reunited, and then they pushed the cup and drank happily, at this time, the face of the shopkeeper Huang had some drunkenness, and he amplified the volume. Like a drunken drunkard, he opened his throat and said, "This time we have reported such an important military situation to His Majesty the Emperor, and from now on, we will no longer have to work hard to escort cargo ships to run around." Haha, Your Majesty said that if the whole information is reliable, he will give us an official. After the yellow shopkeeper finished speaking, his hand fumbled to get the wine glass on the table.

"Shh Habuda apparently remained awake. hurriedly interrupted the yellow shopkeeper. His face turned pale in an instant after hearing the words of the yellow shopkeeper. I almost stepped forward to cover the mouth of the yellow shopkeeper.

Shopkeeper Huang exclaimed: "This is in the territory of Daming." What are we afraid of? Are you still afraid that the Dutch red-haired ghost will not be able to listen to it? This time their fleet consisted of five warships and twenty requisitioned merchant ships. The total strength was nearly 2,500 men. Aha! How did they know that His Majesty had set a trap here? Just wait for them to attack. If the battle is won. You and I have done a great job. The promotion and wealth are only in front of you. ”

The voice of the yellow shopkeeper can be heard in almost the entire wine shop. Xiao Er in the distance did not bother. It seems that there are not five such guests a day, but also eight. It's all about not drinking and slamming people into it. To deal with such a person is to ignore him. As long as he pays the wine money and doesn't smash the items in the wine shop, he doesn't care about the rest.

"Damn red-haired Dutchman. For no reason, I want to requisition you and my merchant ships. I don't know how much our business has been delayed. We're not easy to bully. Today, I finally avenged this arrow. The shopkeeper scolded loudly for a long time. On the side, Habra just discouraged. I only hope that the words of the shopkeeper Huang will not be listened to in the ears of people with hearts. Seeing that the heat is almost over. Hurriedly went to settle the bill. Called a junior in the middle of the wine shop to help the shopkeeper Huang out. The Malacca fleet is anchored on an uninhabited island off the coast of southern Burma. Rear Admiral Kent leaned impatiently against the deck with a goblet. Let the sea breeze stir him up.

"The board of directors is a bunch of cowards." Major General Kent cursed inwardly. If it is not a Board order. He had already led a fleet to attack southern Burma. And now. As the commander of this fleet. Kent had to stay here and wait for the information to arrive.

"General." The adjutant emerged from the cabin. This is a mischievous young officer. Kent admired him. He likes such young people who have a lot of energy all over his body. At this time. The adjutant, who had always been cheerful, turned pale with a pale face. He stepped in front of Kent. He saluted and said, "General." We may have had some trouble. ”

The adjutant raised the letterhead in his hand: "According to the information sent by our hidden intelligence officers in southern Burma, a businessman was aware of our movements, and they reported it to the southern Burmese authorities, I think the southern Burmese side may have launched a defense." ”

Kent's face became solemn, now was not the time to hold him accountable, as the supreme commander of the fleet, he had to make the most advantageous choice.

"Adjutant, convey my order, the fleet will drop anchor and set sail, and tonight, we will reach Dawei and raze it to the ground." Since the plan of the sneak attack was detected by the other party, Kent decided to attack by force, he waved his hand, and said to the adjutant: "Call all the officers above the major to the command, and we must urgently draw up a battle plan for tonight." ”

After Kent finished the order, he patted the adjutant on the shoulder again: "Don't be nervous, young man, we will blow these yellow-skinned monkeys into the sky." ”

Dawei City.

Zhu Jun sat in the newly built palace and conveyed all kinds of combat orders, the Ming army had no sailors, and the Dutch with powerful warships had to rely on land warfare to fight a decisive battle, the reason why Zhu Jun released the news of the Dutch sneak attack to the Dutch fleet was also forced to be helpless, as the saying goes, not afraid of thieves stealing, just afraid of thieves, there is always a huge fleet overseas to covet themselves, it is better to let the wind out, let the Dutch know that their sneak attack plan failed, and it is more beneficial for Zhu Jun to turn to a strong attack.

"Mu Aiqing, you go and gather all the people and place them in the valley." Zhu Jun gave the first order, the two armies fought, if the people were mixed in, it would make the Ming army unable to let go.

"Li Aiqing." Zhu Jun patted Li Xiao's back, straightened his chest back, and his eyes showed the intention of seeking war.

"You are in command of this operation, and the six hundred mountain battalions and two thousand recruits have all been handed over to you." Zhu Jun paused and said, "It's best to place the soldiers far away from the coastline, out of the range of the guns on the opponent's battleship." ”

"The last general will defend the new capital to the death." Li Xiao replied with confidence.

"Okay, I wish you to inherit your father's will and start victorious." Zhu Jun gave birth to a trace of pride: "The soldiers are working the front line, and I am here waiting for the soldiers to return triumphantly!" ”

"No, Your Majesty!" Yang Side and Mu Tianbo were so frightened by Zhu Jun's words that they almost lost their souls: "Tonight, the entire Dawa City may become a battlefield, and it would be too dangerous for the emperor to stay in the palace." He also asked the emperor to go into the valley with his ministers to take refuge. ”

Zhu Jun shook his head, he was also afraid of death, but the entire new one was built by him, if it was occupied by the Dutch, the so-called grand hegemony would all come to naught, in this case, Zhu Jun decided to live and die with the new capital.
