Chapter 741: Contempt


Perhaps because of the interval between typhoons, the Ming Dynasty navy's 'Jinghai' operation intercepted more than 100 merchant ships in one day and one night.

Although these merchant ships were generally relatively small, the goods they could carry were very valuable, and more than a hundred soldiers were busy counting them, but they still felt that they were piled up and could not be counted for a while.

Zhu Xu had breakfast, stood on a high place in the base, and looked at the sea with a telescope.

The battleships were neatly arranged, especially the largest one, which looked majestic and domineering, more majestic than when he was in the sky.

When Jin Wei looked at it, it was even more huge, and he was killed.

This battleship was the first real naval warship of the Ming Dynasty, but it was only the beginning.

Zhu Xu looked at it, and his heart became more and more confident, and after a few decades, Zheng Chenggong would be able to defeat the increasingly powerful lotus.

Lan Ren, he has now concentrated all the strength of the Ming Dynasty, and it should be no problem!

Xiong Wencan, Zhu Yujian came up from the other side, holding a thick document in his hand, Zhu Yujian said excitedly, "Your Majesty, it has been counted, it is worth at least five million taels, and there are more than a hundred ships." ” Zhu Xu put down the binoculars and nodded: "Well, how is the defense everywhere?"

” Zhu Yujian put down the paperwork in his hand and said: "Your Majesty, there are still twenty warships intercepting the merchant ships coming and going, and the minister has also arranged hundreds of intelligence boats on the sea. ” Xiong Wencan said, "Your Majesty, the Francois will receive our declaration of war today at the latest, and it won't be long before the red-haired people will know that we control the sea area and seize their merchant ships. ” Zhu Xu put his hands behind his back, looked at the two of them, and said in a deep voice, "It may be shorter, you have to step up your preparations, tactics and strategies must be Zhou Xiang, this battle must be won!"

” "Yes!"

Both of them looked grim and replied loudly.

With the full mobilization of the Ming Dynasty, Taiwan.

The waters of the Gulf suddenly became tense, and even the crusade that Annan intended to launch has now been terminated.

The Ming Dynasty's attention to the sea was very low, and even extremely repulsive.

The people didn't notice much, only the governor yamen noticed some, Zou Weilian and Yu Anxing went to the base and 'cared'.

Platform. b, Freshwater City.

Liu Jingming was inspecting the coastal positions, looking at the cannons one by one, with a serious expression and a calm gaze.

He is a fourth, Sichuan native, who has participated in dozens of battles large and small, and was recommended by Qin Liangyu a year ago and transferred by the Ministry of War.

Forty years old, with a square face, but a pair of small eyes, he walks with a wind.

Not long after the establishment of Tamsui City, there were not many reclaimed places, and everywhere still seemed 'barren' and sparsely populated.

The port is not big, and there is only one way to go ashore, and Liu Jingming is located on a barren mountain in the east of the port, which is a running army position, hidden in the dense forest.

It is facing the direction of the port.

A lieutenant followed him and introduced, "My lord, there are now a hundred cannons here, and there are thirty exterminating cannons, which can cover all the ports, and ordinary cannons can cover all the ...... before going ashore to the first line of defense."

Liu Jingming tried hard to open his little eyes, didn't say anything, held the knife in his right hand, and walked very slowly.

The cannons were piled on the fortifications, the cement was hard and thick, and it was difficult for ordinary guns to destroy, and each cannon was covered with bunkers, which became more and more cold.

The lieutenant followed Liu Jingming, came to a 'small house', and hurriedly said: "My lord, this is a new one we built according to the requirements of the war room, three zhang high, three cannons, thirty guns, mainly used for defense and prevent the enemy from occupying the artillery array. ” Liu Jingming stopped and looked, it was all cement, and it was condescending, he estimated that if a single person took it out and wanted to rush in, at least a hundred people would have to be filled in, there were dozens of them in this row, and there were not thousands of lives, so they couldn't capture here.

What's more, this is the defense of the artillery array, and the real army is on the other side, which means that if you want to capture Tamsui City, you don't have an army of tens of thousands!

Liu Jingming didn't speak, went around and continued to walk forward.

The lieutenant followed behind him and took the trouble to introduce: "My lord, in front is the arrow and artillery position, and the mine position ......."

Zhu Xu attaches great importance to artillery, and the navy is the same, the defense here is simply exhaustive, and if you want to capture the artillery array, the price you pay will be quite heavy.

Liu Jingming didn't speak, and after inspecting the artillery array, he picked up the binoculars and looked at the port and the sea.

Du Wei said, "My lord, there should have been a lot of merchant ships, but now they are all banned, and there are soldiers patrolling everywhere, I heard that mines have been laid in the sea, and they have been cleared later......"

"Take care of the artillery array, don't ask too much about the rest, take care of it."

Liu Jingming put down the binoculars and glanced at him.

"Yes!"

This lieutenant looked grim and said solemnly.

At the same time, at the first line of defense in their mouths, Ao Bai, who was quite tall, was striding awe-inspiringly on the patrol.

This first line of defense was composed of barbed wire, tunnels, spearmen, and arrows, with only 2,000 men, and the rest were 2,000 Jiannu soldiers led by Aobai, which were used as an assault force in reserve.

Ao Bai had a calm face, expressionless, and his eyes were like copper bells.

He was followed by a lieutenant, also a Jurchen, who followed behind Ao Bai and whispered, "Master, the horse is ready, and the boats on the sea are all hidden, ready to be used at any time." ” "Hmm."

Ao Bai nodded, stopped, and looked at the sea, his eyes were extremely hot.

'The time is coming for me to get ahead!'

’ In Taiwan.

On the other side of the bay, Zheng Zhilong was even bolder, consolidating Peng.

The defense of the lake, at the same time, secretly summoned some familiar pirates, formed an alliance with them, robbed merchant ships, reported news, and on the other hand, united to prepare for this great war.

Han Ziji of Anping City was bolder than everyone else, and directly withdrew all the defenses of the landing port, and the huge landing port was like an open space, completely undefended.

The sudden action of the Ming Dynasty brought a huge shock to the entire maritime trade countries, especially the Spanish trade.

Teeth, Charges.

These countries rely on huge maritime trade interests to survive.

Filipino.

Bing, Mani.

Ra, Intraus.

Filipino.

Acuña, the governor of Bin, dressed in his religious robes, sent the two men out of the door with great enthusiasm.

"Thank you to the two right referees for helping me a lot."

Acuña said with a smile on his lips.

One of these two is the Philippines.

Justice Penn, one is the bishop of the Inquisition, and they have just ruled on the Philippines.

The massacre of the Chinese by Bing was 'the right punishment of God for the rioters'.

"Of course, I am willing to serve you."

Both smiled reservedly.

The next step was to write a letter to the king explaining their exploits so that they could be repatriated or to some more affluent place.

The two of them left, and Acuña turned back to his ornately decorated office, sat down in a chair, poured a glass of wine, and leaned his legs on the table, humming a strange tune in his mouth, with a pleasant expression.

After taking a sip, he picked up another document on the table, flipped through it, and smiled unusually happily on his face.

"Akito full of wealth, well, that's good......," he said, looking at the string of numbers, he took another sip of wine with a smile on his face.

After the 'riot is killed', it is natural that 'the property will be returned to the public', and this 'father' is him.

Just when he was happy, a foreign girl with an unusually hot figure walked in with her fat buttocks twisted, handed over a piece of yellow paper, and said, "Your Excellency, the Ming Dynasty has issued a war letter." ” Acuña was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said, "Ankaya, we have seen too many such things, there is no need to show them to me. ” Ankaya blinked his big eyes and said, "The Ming people are different, they are the strongest in the Far East, and they are very close. ” Acuña wiped the wine from the corner of his mouth, smiled absently, and said: "Ankaya, don't be nervous, they don't make a difference, they only care about their own small territory, they don't know how big the world is, and as far as I know, they don't have warships and can't come so far." ” Ankaya nodded, turning to leave.

Acuña looked at Ankaya's writhing fat buttocks, his eyes flickered, and he sat up and said, "By the way, I asked you to investigate before, about that table.

How's it going?

” Ankaya turned his head, his face did not move, and said for a while: "Judging from the intelligence from the pirates, there are not many people there, but the land is good, suitable for farming, and the natives are a little small, and they need to be captured." ” Acuña frowned, folded his hands on his chin, made an attractive appearance, and said, "Very good!"

So, tonight......
