The First Corrupt Official of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 427 Mr. Ye still ignored him, Zhu Yuanzhang realized it later, and Wang Baobao ordered a melee at sea!
"Brother Ye!"

A friendly "Brother Ye" made Ye Qing turn his head and look at the smiling Mr. Guo in front of him.

However, Ye Qing's expression was not very good.

If Xu Da called him 'Brother Ye' at this time, he would definitely respond politely.

Originally!
Everyone has been so nervous before, but now we finally have a big victory in the first battle, it is not impossible to relax a little.

But facing this Mr. Guo, who is the 'Zhu Yuanzhang's eyeliner', it is absolutely impossible for him to look good at this time.

There is no other reason,

He just wanted to give Mr. Guo the impression that Ye Qing would go to heaven if he had some achievements!
Ye Qing just rolled his eyes at him and said, "What's the matter?"

"Didn't you just badmouth us all?"

"Now when I see the victory in the first battle, I smile like a madam when I see a big client?"

After soothing himself like "a gentleman takes revenge, it is never too late in ten years", Zhu Yuanzhang completely regained his composure.

"This is a sign that a whirlpool is about to appear!"

Zhu Di, who was on the side, looked at his father's chest that was rising and falling violently, and could already feel how violently his father's heart was trembling at this moment.

"At the very least, you can't learn everything before Master dies. Even if you learn it all, you have to pretend you haven't!"

The glory that the imperial court and other places can get is that they can eat part of the food they sell!
As for its core technology, the imperial court didn’t get a single hair!
Not to mention the Ningbo Prefecture where Ye Qing is currently serving, even the Yanmen County where Ye Qing once served is the same!
After Ye Qing left office, he sent officials from the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Ministry of Industry to get technical information, but they directly replied, 'Without Lord Ye's permission, even imperial envoys will be treated as thieves'!
Just when Zhu Yuanzhang was thinking like this, Xu Da immediately said: "Look, look at the current in the sea ahead."

Logically speaking, Xu Da couldn't persuade Zhu Yuanzhang in this regard, but before they set off, Empress Ma made an explanation in front of the two of them.

But at this moment, he realized a serious problem.

After Zhu Yuanzhang swallowed his anger, he looked at Ye Qing and said to himself: "You won't be able to hold him back for long, and you won't be able to go to heaven for long."

Yes,

"For example, the technology to build this giant arrow!"

After saying that, Ye Qing scolded him sternly and coldly: "You are a typical example of a wallflower who falls on both sides!"

He just never expected that his warm smiling face would be directly attached to Ye Qing's ice butt.

"When that time comes, I will definitely let you know what it means to fall from heaven to hell!"

That was the extremely gentle 'Chongba'!
Of course, Zhu Yuanzhang didn't tolerate it just because of the "Chong Ba"!
Although Wang Baobao was indispensable for this achievement that surpassed history, Ye Qing, who built this superior-performance warship, should be given the most credit.

Immediately afterwards, he looked at the proud profile of his master Ye Qing with a look of "utter admiration"!
You must admire it!
A minister who was only a fourth-rank official could actually make the emperor sulk silently!
What kind of skill is this?
This is a great ability that even the civil and military forces of the entire dynasty could not possess!
Zhu Di just wants to learn this skill now and then personally avenge the beatings he suffered for so many years!
But when he thought about it, he felt a little less confident again.

Thinking of this, Zhu Di looked at the backs of Ye Qing and Zhu Yuanzhang, and said to himself: "I, Mr. Zhu, are still very filial."

As soon as Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he immediately forgot everything he had thought before, and just focused on the changes in the water flow in front of him.

Just when they all looked at the Ming Dynasty Blue Army Commander, which was still lying in the center of the sea, and so many enemy ships in front of them,
On the admiral's ship located in the center of the Japanese navy fleet, Chiba Chongwu and Yamamoto Kazuki also looked at them with murderous intent in their eyes.

He only saw the phenomenon of water flowing in opposite directions, not only in the sea area in front of him, but also approaching in the direction of Wang Baobao's handsome ship.

"."

"Such a great skill is because the emperor urgently needs it, but the people around him don't have the skill, so he must have multiple such skills."

"Can I learn it all?"

He just looked at Zhu Yuanzhang and shook his head slightly!

"After I learn everything, will my father kill my master and then act like a cow or a horse unconditionally just because he is my father?"

"."

His greedy eyes before were just coveting Ye Qing's shipbuilding skills.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the side face with his head raised slightly and did not take him seriously at all, and he was so angry that his chest was overloaded.

"The day you return to Ningbo Pier will be the day you leave office and enter Beijing!"

"No, even if I can learn it all, I can't learn it all!"

"If I were a fool and I had some backbone, I would bite the bullet and continue to sing bad words until the end of the war."

"Do you know what you are doing?"

After a series of reasonable and reasonable output aimed at seeking death, Ye Qing stopped looking at Mr. Guo and just focused on the paused battlefield in front of him.

"Originally, this is just the beginning, where is this?"

If Zhu Chongba was furious with Ye Qing while he was at sea, she would even deal with it with His Majesty the Emperor and the Generalissimo of the Armed Forces!
Xu Da's little movement of shaking his head slightly, and his fearful and suggestive little eyes immediately made a long-lost voice appear in Zhu Yuanzhang's mind.

Even the rice cultivation and planting technology that he attached the most importance to, wherever Ye Qing went, he would provide relevant technical guidance.

"At that time, all your skills will belong to me!"

You must know that his father is the king of a country. He has always been the one who used his warm face to rub his cold butt. Today, he used his hot face to touch Ye Qing's cold butt that was frozen!
Zhu Di looked at his biological father, who had a pair of huge scarlet eyes and was just showing off his dignity silently, and nodded with satisfaction.

"Also, now that the war has begun, General Guo Shen will not discriminate between superior and inferior. Who is your brother Ye? Please call me Mr. Ye!"

Seeing this scene, Zhu Yuanzhang became nervous again.

That was since he started coveting Ye Qing's skills. Three years have passed, but he hasn't gained any skills.

At this moment, Xu Da's big hand also rested on Zhu Yuanzhang's shoulder.

Yamamoto Kazuki frowned and said, "Who is the marshal of the other party?"

"He attacked our lead ship, making its direction uncontrollable, and then rammed the rear ship. As far as this tactic is concerned, you are an expert in naval warfare!"

"Although the naval generals of the Ming Dynasty had rich experience in river battles, they had almost no experience in naval battles."

"How could he use real-time hydrology tactics like this!"

"This is still our sea area, as if this marshal once came to study the hydrology of our sea area?"

Chiba Chongwu listened to Yamamoto Kazuki's analysis, but his eyes were always focused on the row of Ming warships behind the handsome ship in front.

Qianye Chongwu said seriously: "Why haven't these ships come over? Aren't they afraid that we will become angry and annihilate their handsome ships?"

"What are they planning?"

Yamamoto Kazuki just frowned and nodded immediately: "General Chiba, do we want the entire army to attack and attack together?"

"When that time comes, we are not afraid that they will not come!" Qianye Chongwu shook his head and said: "In this case, will we surround them, or will they surround us?"

"Besides, now they can easily sink twenty of my ships with just one handsome ship. Now their morale is high and our army's morale is low!"

"The only thing we can do is to send another army over and sink their handsome ship in front of them."

"Only in this way can we destroy the enemy's morale, increase our prestige, and possibly defeat the enemy!"

After Yamamoto Kazuki nodded, he immediately walked out of the command booth and ordered to the deputy general beside him: "Organize the second army, thirty ships, and no longer attack in staggered rows."

"Before entering the range of the opponent's artillery, change to a flanking attack!"

As soon as Yamamoto Kazuki finished speaking, the loud-voiced deputy general loudly conveyed his order.

At the same time, the flag soldiers also conveyed Yamamoto Kazuki's combat orders to the Japanese battleships ahead.

Soon, thirty imitation Tang warships sailed out of the fleet as if in formation, and quickly assembled into a new fleet, which was the 'Second Fleet of the Japanese Southern Dynasty Navy'.

They were still moving forward in staggered rows, but when they were about to enter the range of the cannon, they suddenly dispersed.

On the handsome ship,

The deputy general in charge of artillery immediately saw their purpose of attacking from both sides.

Orders on the battleship do not necessarily need to go through the captain. The deputy generals in charge of various departments have certain authority to issue orders themselves.

The artillery adjutant shouted loudly: "Turn around, correct the bow of the ship, and the artillerymen on both sides are ready to fire."

"The enemy wants to attack from both sides, hurry, move quickly!"

At the same time, the lieutenant in charge of archers also gave the order: "Archers, go to both sides of the deck and attack in conjunction with the artillery!"

"."

under the sun,

On the trapezoidal sea area of ​​​​Oji Bay, thirty fighting ships have completed turns on the left and right sides, and are heading towards the Daming Shuai from the left and right sides.

The handsome ship where Wang Baobao was located had already corrected its bow, facing the flanking enemy ship on both sides.

On the deck of the adjutant ship at the rear,

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the handsome ship that was about to be flanked, and his toes were about to tighten.

In his opinion, even if such a giant battleship was equipped with twenty cannons on each side, it would be impossible to hit them all at once, let alone sink them all at once.

Judging from the speed at which the enemy ships were advancing, the cannons on both sides of them only had two chances to fire.

If you can't sink them all twice, you'll have to fight hand-to-hand!

Zhu Yuanzhang, who was really worried, looked at Ye Qing again, his eyes still like blades!
But immediately after, he bit his back molars and made a fist salute: "Sir, let's also send ships to support!"

"They only have two chances to fire. If they miss, they will have to hit each other."

Xu Da did not speak for Zhu Yuanzhang, but looked at Ye Qing quietly.

He knew that this was a tactic planned by Ye Qing and Wang Baobao in advance. Although he didn't know why it was such a risky tactic, he still chose to believe them.

Therefore, if Ye Qing sends ships for support, he will actively cooperate. If he does not send ships for support, although he will be very worried, he will also choose to remain silent.

Xu Da had this mentality, and so did Mao Xiang and Zhu Di!
Of course, the main reason why they didn't interrupt was that it was simply not their turn to interrupt!
Just when everyone was looking at Ye Qing, Ye Qing just said to Zhu Yuanzhang calmly: "Look at the distance between us and them. Do we have time to support them?"

"Since it's too late, then we won't go to support."

"Besides, I'm just a civil servant, not a combat marshal."

"Our combat marshal did not raise the flag or ask us to go over. We cannot disobey his military orders!"

Hearing this almost indifferent answer, Zhu Yuanzhang really wanted to regard Ye Qing as the Little Ming King back then and let him become the Dragon King now.

How he usurped the throne of King Xiao Ming back then, how he usurped Ye Qing's throne now!

It's a pity that Ye Qing is not the Little Ming King back then. I'm afraid he will become the Dragon King before he succeeds!

The only thing he could do now was to look at Ye Qing and curse in his mind: "If you lose the battle, I will reap your rewards after returning to the court."

The next moment, he stopped looking at Ye Qing and just focused on the battlefield in front of him.

At this moment, the twenty cannons on each side of the handsome ship all fired one after another, and the divine archers arranged behind the artillerymen also fired arrows!

From a distance, they can see twenty solid artillery shells each trailing black smoke, taking the lead in drawing a magnificent parabola in the air.

Behind them is a rain of arrows with burning fuses, following closely behind!
The first round of attacks with artillery shells and divine machine arrows only succeeded in sinking five battleships attacking from both wings. The second round of attacks only sank six ships on the left and four on the right!

Judging from the current distance between the two sides, just as Zhu Yuanzhang predicted, the artillery had no time to organize a third round of bombardment.

And the deputy general in charge of artillery became anxious in front of Wang Baobao for the first time.

The artillery lieutenant reported anxiously: "Commander Wang, the current is too turbulent and the ship cannot stand firmly. Our accuracy is not good, and two rounds of shelling cannot sink it all."

"We can't carry out the third round of shelling now!"

"Please also ask Commander Wang to give the order to raise the waving flag and let Master Ye and others come over!"

Wang Baobao didn't answer, he just looked at the ten enemy ships that were getting closer and closer, as well as the Japanese soldiers on the enemy ship's deck holding up their samurai swords and screaming.

Then he looked at a nearby island and the water current that was heading towards the island.

Wang Baobao immediately ordered: "Cut the anchor rope, follow the current, and float to the island."

"Let half of the cannons be converted into explosive bombs, and all deck combatants be prepared for hand-to-hand combat."

"Before engaging in battle, use firecrackers and bows to kill the enemy soldiers as much as possible!"

The lieutenants who were always ready to take orders, although they were a little frightened, still hurriedly followed the instructions.

They really don't understand why, at this point, he still refuses to raise the flag and still struggles to support himself here.

But things have come to this, and they have no choice.

On the handsome ship, all arms are busy!
On the decks of the ten enemy ships that were also floating along the current, the Japanese soldiers roared even louder.

There is no other reason,

Just because they have accumulated too much killing intent, they can finally regain their place in the field of hand-to-hand combat that they think they are good at!
