In the hall of Fuzhou Manfu Building. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

All the core figures around Jiang Xia were here, but none of them made a sound.

The atmosphere of the whole hall is very oppressive and solemn.

Jiang Xia stood in front of the map, looking at the four ports marked on the map, his brows furrowed.

From the beginning of the hour, it is now the end of the hour. Jiang Xia looked at the four ports from Quanzhou to Fuzhou on the map of the sea area for two hours.

For two hours, Jiang Xia did not speak, and the rest of the people did not speak.

Just yesterday, the Daming Sailor had already fought an encounter with the Franc Machine on the outskirts of Penghu Island. There were about 200 warships and more than 5,000 people.

Although they are not as good as the Daming Naval Division in terms of military strength, they are far superior to the Daming Naval Division in terms of the size of the warship and the power of the cannonballs.

If you want to fight head-on with the Franc machine man on the sea, then the Daming Sailor really doesn't have the certainty of winning the battle.

If it comes to defense, if the Daming Water Division has 8,000 people concentrated in one place and cooperates with the help of the defenders, it will naturally be able to defend it.

But the problem now is that the Franc machine can choose any place from the four ports of Fuzhou, Quanzhou, Xiahu, and Daxing to attack.

If the Daming Naval Division wants to defend, the only way is to disperse its forces and deploy them in four ports. And the consequence of this is that none of the four ports can be defended.

So now I can only use the method that Jiang Xia said before, and bet on four!

The so-called four bets, that is, from now on, Jiangxia will estimate the port that the Franc machine man will choose to attack, and send the Daming Sailor to deploy the defense in advance.

The entire Daming Water Division was all defended in one place, and the other three were all empty. Only then will it be possible to hold on.

The bet is right, Fujian can be insured. If the bet is wrong, the Francophone will drive straight in, causing very big losses to Fujian.

And this loss will be much greater than the previous loss of scattered forces and the deployment of all four ports.

And the responsibility for such losses must be borne by Jiang Xia, the decision-maker.

It is equivalent to saying that now Jiangxia has been pushed to the cusp.

If he is conservative, he will be fully deployed in the four ports and let Fujian suffer losses. And this is a very normal practice, and no one can blame him.

But if he chooses to bet on four, the advantage is that it is possible to hold Fujian safely and steadily, and wait for reinforcements to arrive and immediately launch a counterattack against the Franco.

The disadvantage is that once you lose the bet, you guess wrong. The loss of the entire Fujian will be blamed on his head, and his reputation may be ruined because of this.

The whole of Fujian was originally because of his boldness, and I don't know how many people he offended. Once Jiang Xia committed such a serious mistake, many people in Fujian would definitely blame Jiang Xia. Including many people in Beijing who are involved in Fujian, they will also blame Jiangxia.

In the end, under heavy pressure, Jiang Xia must come out and bear the responsibility. And this just happens to give Yang Tinghe the best opportunity to strike, no matter what purpose he uses to support him to sit in this position, he will definitely not let go of this opportunity to kill him.

The people sitting in the hall now are either cronies who have been following Jiang Xia for a long time, or they are people who are ready to become Jiang Xia's cronies.

They were all conflicted. On the one hand, they were influenced by Jiangxia and wanted to keep Fujian safely. But on the other hand, they also understand that the odds of success are too small and too small.

Using Jiang Xia's net worth and career prospect to bet on such a small probability, how to choose, this is not a difficult choice question, but the answer is a little difficult to say.

After being silent for a long time, Han Mufeng finally couldn't hold back first. He got up and said to Jiang Xia, "My lord, or don't look at it." That method of securing Fujian is too risky, and we can still divide our troops and deploy defenses. Let all the residents along the coast evacuate, erect walls to clear the wilderness, and let the red-haired ghosts go ashore and grab nothing. ”

"It's too late. Jiang Xia took a deep breath and said, "It will take at least ten days for the people of the four ports to be notified of all of them. Then organize their evacuation, which will take at least half a month. Red-haired ghosts aren't going to give us that much time. ”

"Then you can withdraw as much as you want, you can't really take the risk with your gambling method, my lord?" Gao Jia also said.

Qiu Wenshi nodded after hearing this, and directly said everything he thought of. "My lord, if you take this risk, you are likely to be burdened with a very great responsibility. You can't do that, Da Ming needs you. It's not worth it for the sake of a slim chance. ”

"Yes, my lord, I don't think you should take any chances. Ma Yunlong finally couldn't help but say.

At this time, everyone saw that Jiang Xia had not yet expressed his position, so Gao Jia took the lead and knelt down first, and shouted loudly: "Please be cautious!"

After all, Gao Jia was the commander of the guard before, and he understood that sometimes, there were some things that were difficult for the superior to say. They need their subordinates to give him a step and find a reason for him.

And at this time, Gao Jia was giving Jiang Xia this step, this reason.

Gao Jia understood this truth, and the rest of the people also understood it.

Seeing Gao Jia kneeling, Qiu Wenshi, Han Mufeng, and Bu Jinyun also knelt down. Ma Yunlong quickly reacted and quickly knelt down.

Yu Dayou and Liang Jinghai glanced at each other.

The two of them are Fujian themselves, but in fact, they still hope that Jiangxia can think of a way to keep Fujian safely. After all, if the Japanese chose to attack from the port of Quanzhou, their hometown might also suffer.

But the two of them are not stupid people, and they know what kind of price they are using and what kind of odds they are betting.

So the two of them finally nodded to each other and fell to their knees.

The crowd shouted in unison, "Please be careful!"

Jiang Xia looked at the four ports, and he didn't understand what kind of risk he was taking. But let him watch the people of Fujian being slaughtered, killed, and looted by foreigners, Jiangxia couldn't do it.

Jiang Xia thinks that he is not a saint, but at least he is a responsible man.

Since you obviously have a way to completely keep Fujian, why don't you do it? Because you are afraid that your official career will be affected because of this?

Jiang Xia knew that he had to be brave enough to choose to bet on four. He knew very well what the Franc machine would do to the people after it really landed.

Not only would they burn, kill, and loot, but they would also take young and strong women captive and sell them into slavery in their own country or other countries.

If this is the case, the blow suffered by Fujian will definitely not be able to recover in a short period of time. And the tragedy that resulted was far beyond the imagination of the people who appeared on the kneeling.

Jiang Xia finally exhaled and said, "You all get up, I have already made a decision." ”

"Huh......" Gao Jia breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's good that the adults have a decision." ”

After speaking, Gao Jia took the lead in standing up, and everyone also got up.

Jiang Xia used his right hand to draw a circle on the sea area map and the place of Quanzhou Port. He said: "Quanzhou Port, which is the closest to Penghu Island, and the sea area is open and easy to attack and retreat. So I bet that the first port that the Franc machine man chose to attack was the port of Quanzhou.

Ma Yunlong: I want you to immediately take my warrant and take the army from Caoxiazhou to the port of Quanzhou in a roundabout way, and order the local defenders to defend the port of Quanzhou with you.

As soon as I got my bet right, I was immediately notified by a flying pigeon when he retreated!"

"This ......" Ma Yunlong was stunned.

"Your Excellency......" Gao Jia exclaimed.

Everyone was amazed.

They didn't expect that Jiang Xia's final decision was to bet four.

This is gambling on the slightest chance of one's own future and fate, which can be said to be a kind of madness.

Yu Dayou looked at Jiang Xia, his eyes full of heat and admiration.

He understands that everyone here understands that this is a kind of responsibility, a responsibility that only belongs to those who serve the country and the people, who have great righteousness in mind, and who do not pay attention to power and wealth.

Jiang Xia looked at the people in the hall, his henchmen who had followed him for many years would naturally be very opposed to him making such a risky decision.

Jiang Xia took a slight breath and said, "Trust me, I understand what I'm doing. ”

"From yesterday's tentative battle, we can see that the warship of the Franco-man is strong and tall, and the cannonballs are very powerful.

I can actually tell you that I know a lot about the Franc machine. Their current seafaring civilization is far superior to ours, if I'm not mistaken. Their presence was only a temptation.

If they get a taste of the sweetness this time, then the maritime powers of the whole of Europe will probably covet our Ming Dynasty.

So this is a big gamble, I can't help but bet.

I know what happens if I lose, but I can't back down. Maybe this is my fate, who told me that I am the only one in Daming who really knows what is happening on the other side of the world?"

Jiang Xia smiled a little heavily, and then said to Ma Yunlong: "Ma Yunlong, do you understand everything I said. ”

Ma Yunlong said: "My lord, the last general understands!"

"Well, do as you are told, I have made up my mind, and you don't need to persuade me again. ”

"Yes!" After Ma Yunlong answered the order, according to the rules, he should stand up and start to carry out the order.

But Ma Yunlong, who was originally kneeling on one knee, became kneeling on both knees, and respectfully kowtowed to Jiang Xia three times.

He didn't say anything to Jiang Xia about admiration, admiration or anything like that.

Just silently kowtowed three times.

After getting up, Ma Yunlong just said: "My lord, I, Ma Yunlong, can know you and serve you, which is the blessing of my Ma Yunlong's life." ”

After speaking, Ma Yunlong walked out of the hall of Manfu Building.

Yu Dayou and Liang Jinghai glanced at each other, and the two of them hugged their fists at the same time and said, "My lord! Fuzhou Jinghai Zhenfu Si also asked to join the war. ”

"No! you can't go. Jiang Xia shook his head and said: "From now on, you will replace all the pirate ships that I have collected before with the military flag of the Daming Naval Division, and then recruit local people to change into military uniforms, and all of them will be on the ship for me, and they will be deployed along the waters of Fuzhou Port." ”

"Yes!" Yu Dayou and Liang Jinghai responded at the same time, and then they also learned to do like Ma Yunlong, and kowtowed to Jiang Xia three times.

When Yu Dayou and Liang Jinghai came out of the hall, Jiang Xia said to Feng Xiao and them: "Feng Xiao, you go and teach Ma Yunlong how to use the flying pigeon to pass the book, you must ensure that this flying pigeon pass book is foolproof." ”

"Yes!" the wind whistled to order.

Jiang Xia said to Qianjue again: "Jedily, send orders to the disciples of Qianmen, let them figure out for me who gave this idea to the Buddha Lang Jiren."

This person must be a person who is proficient in naval warfare and is very familiar with the waters of Fujian. Such a person can't let him live in peace!"

"Yes!"

"The rest of the people, leading all the people in the martial arts hall to immediately impose martial law on Fuzhou, not a single person, not a pigeon can leave Fuzhou now. I want to guarantee that there is absolutely no meticulous work by the Francophone people in Fuzhou, and there will be no news from Fuzhou on Penghu Island. ”

"Yes!" the crowd commanded.

On Penghu Island, Wang Zhi met the commander of the Franc Aircraft Navy on the Conquest.

The commander of the regiment was named Don Jorge Gosmin...... Well, if you want to finish the name of this corps commander completely, I'm afraid it will take more than twenty words.

Because anyone who knows the country of Portugal knows that it has the longest name in the world.

Especially for the descendants of the Portuguese nobility, in addition to the name given by the father's surname, their names have to be added to their mother's surname, the names of their godparents, the names of their grandparents, and the names of their saints in memory of a certain saint.

So this Legion War, it's better to call it Gosmin.

Gosmin looked at Wang Zhi, who was standing in place and refused to kneel down to him, and said with a smile in awkward Chinese: "I know you, you are a well-known pirate here. I don't know what happened to you, but I'm sure you can help me.

A very famous man in Rome was Marco Polo, and he said that the country was full of gold and very rich. We are very interested in this place, so His Majesty the King has sent me to test it.

If we can win the war this time, then we will send a large army to attack here. Our country is very strong now, and we have a lot of slaves in many places. We hope to have a lot of slaves here. And if you help us, you will get a lot of wealth. ”

Wang Zhi sneered in his heart, and he secretly said in his heart: "You red-haired ghost thinks very well, but I can just use you to strike at Jiang Xia first." Then find the Phoenix Lord to send someone to destroy you, and then I will recruit a group of pirates to return to Songpujin, and I can still continue to be my Hui King. ”

The decision was made, Wang Zhi nodded and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely help you win this battle." ”

"Very good, if I win, I will definitely deliver on my promise. But if you lose, you have to die. Gosmin said with a smile.

The smile is kind, but the words are murderous. r1058
