The First Corrupt Official of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 435 Mr. Ye let the big boat give birth to the small boat. Zhu Yuanzhang was shocked and scolded, His Royal Highness’s best wish!
Under the dome of the imperial study room with a golden dragon coiled around it,
Jiang Wei reported in as much detail as possible what he saw and heard on the roof of the hall of Prime Minister Hu Weiyong's residence.

Whether it was what Hu Weiyong said or what Kong Kebiao and Zhu Liangzu said, he almost repeated them to Zhu Biao.

As Mao Xiang's disciple, as the deputy commander of the Jinyi Guards, and as a person trained by Mao Xiang to serve Zhu Biao, Jiang Wei had the ability to have eyes like a 'camera' and ears like a 'recorder'.

As long as he wanted to remember, he could tell Zhu Biao what he saw and heard, almost like recreating the scene.

Zhu Biao was sitting on the dragon chair, with a hand far less powerful than Zhu Yuanzhang's, rhythmically tapping the table of the dragon case.

At the same time, on his still somewhat immature face, the depth of his eyes was no less than that of Zhu Yuanzhang, and the sharpness of his eyes was no less than that of Zhu Yuanzhang.

Zhu Biao is such a person. As a young man who still has a lot of fun, it is normal for him to complain after a long period of high-intensity work!
But once he gets serious, he is far more sophisticated than his peers!

"I know."

"Go down and rest!"

Zhu Biao just said seriously and gently.

He also hoped that Hu Weiyong could sincerely cooperate with Ye Qing in the future and work together for the bright future of Ming Dynasty.

If he doesn't kill this kind of general who has no bottom line, Zhu Biao will not be kind, but benevolent and weak!
In his opinion, he must be different from the powerful Zhu Yuanzhang and must be kind, but kindness and benevolence are two completely different things!

Ye Qing once again opened the long monocular telescope while muttering something to himself.

Regarding the hereditary issue of the Kong family, he really felt powerless, because as long as the Kong family did not rebel, he and Zhu Yuanzhang could not touch them.

First of all, Zhu Liangzu has always had a bad reputation. That is to say, Zhu Yuanzhang still missed his old relationship, so he didn't care too much.

"."

But who knew that this man was not only unrepentant, but also wanted to kill Ye Qing right now for his own selfish gain.

Under the sun, on the beach of the Japanese Navy Pier, Yamamoto Kazuki led 4,000 Japanese soldiers from the Southern Dynasties and stood ready.

Ye Qing followed the principle of 'the day's plan begins in the morning, and the Qi Imperial Envoy should arrive early', he directly stated: "Now is war time, you are my officer's general, you should be respectfully called my Lord Ye."

Who told them that they had the ability to make the emperor miserable for eternity?
Immediately afterwards, his eyes immediately lit up, because in his opinion, this genius Ye, who was constantly creating miracles, might really be able to take care of Kong Kebiao properly!
Because of this, when he thought about Hu Weiyong, Zhu Liangzu and others who tried their best to prevent Ye Qing from coming to court, his eyes became as sharp as a knife again.

At the very least, he could tell that Ye Qing was fighting for his country and he absolutely couldn't stab him in the back.

The sun also appeared above the sea level of Ojiu Bay.

In the early morning of the next day, Zhu Biao went to court early.

But Zhu Biao, who has changed his mentality, will no longer do things with the mentality of being a cow or a horse, as long as he can maintain the operation of the court.

"Don't worry, Mr. Ye,"

Anyway, Ye Qing is very talented. Even if he piles up some things for Ye Qing, it should be treated as a meeting gift for Ye Qing!

Again, his father Zhu Yuanzhang, together with Xu Da and Wang Baobao, went to assist Ye Qing. If they couldn't defeat even a small Japanese country, they would have no shame in coming back!
After a while, Zhu Biao leisurely returned to the East Palace with his hands behind his back.

On the blue fleet of the Ming Navy outside the shoal, the soldiers were already ready for battle.

Zhu Yuanzhang saw that Ye Qing was moving his mouth but there was no sound, so he asked directly: "Brother Ye, what are you talking about?"

On the deck of the handsome ship,

All conspiracies and intrigues must wait until Ye Qing's triumphant return before attacking him!

Thinking of this, he slowly closed his eyes again, and raised another hopeful smile.

"I will make sure that your way to Beijing is smooth."

In fact, when he heard Hu Weiyong's words, while he was angry, he also felt a little relieved.

Therefore, he does not really want Hu Weiyong to die. He hopes that Hu Weiyong can change his mind and use all his talents on the right path.

After Jiang Wei resigned, Zhu Biao walked out of the imperial study, stood under the lonely full moon, and looked in the direction of Prime Minister Hu Weiyong's mansion.

In fact, he originally wanted to continue working overtime, but when he thought that Ye Qing would come to Beijing to take up a post soon, he felt that there was no need to work so hard.

"As long as you help me take care of these civil servants and generals after you come, take care of my father and my younger brothers and sisters, and let me be a leisurely prince, you will be worthy of me!"

Hu Weiyong is indeed very selfish, but he is indeed a capable person, and he also has his own bottom line and sense of propriety.

This is what he hopes for most, a happy ending!
But when he thought of Zhu Liangzu, there was only one word 'death' in his mind.

Thinking of this, Zhu Biao also felt helpless in his heart.

"."

They have trebuchets and crossbow beds spread out horizontally, as well as all available ranged attack power.

Ye Qing, Zhu Yuanzhang, Wang Baobao, Xu Da, Zhu Di, and Mao Xiang also stood side by side on the bow deck, overlooking everything on the shore.

What he couldn't tolerate the most was that Zhu Liangzu, as a military general, wanted to attack Ye Qing right now who was fighting for his country. His ideological consciousness could not catch up with Hu Weiyong, a civil servant.

at the same time,

Thinking of this, he looked in the direction of Japan again.

"Who is your brother Ye?"

"If you don't distinguish between superiority and inferiority, be careful if I treat you to something like stewed military sticks in the morning glow!"

As for whether he can win or whether the fight goes smoothly, he is not worried at all.

"Thousand-year-old Confucian Mansion, the immortal Duke Yansheng of the second grade is actually a rotten Confucian who has long since decayed!"

Zhu Yuanzhang: "You"

Just as Ye Qing expected, the man in front of him, Master Guo, a part-time imperial envoy who was a huge fan of Zhu Yuanzhang, was extremely angry early in the morning.

But he didn't know that the person he was angry with so early in the morning was not an imperial envoy, but Zhu Yuanzhang himself.

Zhu Yuanzhang, adhering to the principle that a good man never suffers immediate losses, temporarily swallowed his breath of relief this morning.

In fact, the content of Ye Qing's muttering is very simple, but it must not be known to people of this era, that is, 'Perhaps the 35 million soldiers and civilians who sacrificed their lives in the Anti-Japanese War have spirits in heaven, and they know I will avenge them in advance'.

There is a reason why Ye Qing said this.

Because the width of the shoal in front of him, which was unable to dock due to insufficient draft, and the end of the beach on the shore, happened to be the farthest range of his naval guns.

In other words, his cannon can hit the farthest tree in the forest!
This is completely enough for the next beach landing battle!
You must know that the width of the shoal, the width of the beach, and the location of the woods are not man-made, they are all formed naturally!

Ye Qing can only say that things that are naturally formed are helping him like this because they have spirits in the sky!
He, Ye Qing, is a staunch materialist, but at this moment, he just wants to believe that there is a spirit in heaven!

Just as Ye Qing was thinking about this, Wang Baobao clasped his fists and said, "Master Ye, do you have any ideas?"

Ye Qing directly handed the monocular telescope to Wang Baobao and said calmly: "Last night I told you the essentials of the beach landing battle, and also talked about the equipment we have that is conducive to beach landing."

"You are the marching marshal, you can make your own decisions!"

As he spoke, he smiled reproachfully and said, "Also, why are you and I so at odds with each other? Just call me brother Ye. What do you call me Master Ye?"

"This"

Wang Baobao and Xu Da were a little confused by his words.

This man has pretty features, but he has a dog-like face. He changes his face at every turn!
He also said just now that this is wartime, everything should be more formal, and everyone should talk about public affairs and not private matters! But now?

It can't be said that his face changed in less than a cup of tea, but that the person he was speaking to changed his face immediately from Mr. Guo to Wang Baobao.

Thinking of this, everyone suddenly realized that it turned out that Ye Qing's change of attitude was not about distinguishing between public and private affairs, but a deliberate attempt to make "Master Guo" unhappy.

After everyone realized this, they also subconsciously had a headache.

Especially Zhu Yuanzhang himself, not only did he have a headache, but he was also so angry that his heart was trembling early in the morning.

He looked at Ye Qing's back, and at the same time said viciously in his heart: "You kid, just wait, I'll have a good harvest for you when I return to court!"

"If I don't let you in Fengtian Hall and break your scalp and the floor, my surname will not be Zhu!"

"."

Just when Zhu Yuanzhang was thinking like this,

Wang Baobao then walked up to the Commander's Warship Command Pavilion with his head held high, and loudly ordered at the same time: "I am ordering you to open the stern hatches of all warships and release the 'Net Shuttle'!"

"Soldiers board the ship and wait for the order to seize the beach!"

"The naval guns are loaded with gunpowder, ready to fire, and all use blooming bombs!"

"."

In front of Wang Baobao, several deputy generals in charge of handsome ships quickly went to arrange the battle orders for the ship after receiving the order.

At the same time, the semaphore soldiers standing on the command booth high up also waved semaphore signals to both sides, issuing the latest command order to the entire Blue Army fleet.

A moment later, the eighty large warships of the Blue Army fleet all took action quickly under the orders of the captains and generals.

under the sun,

Except for the artillery and rocket troops, all the soldiers of each ship gathered on the deck.

Each captain shouted loudly: "If you have old parents at home, take off your helmets!"

"You only son, take off your helmet!"

"If you have a young wife and young children at home, take off your helmet!"

"The rest of the soldiers, go to the bottom cabin, board the 'net shuttle', prepare to land on the beach, and fight ashore!"

"."

The officers and soldiers on the decks of each ship who had taken off their helmets, after understanding the situation, not only subconsciously stopped the brothers beside them who had not taken off their helmets from turning around, but also decisively put on the helmets with red tassels flying on the tops.

Yes, although they are designated as the Blue Army, the 'tassel' on the top of their helmets is the color of the blood of Chinese sons!

The soldiers disobeyed military orders for the first time and loudly said: "General, we train together, eat and live together, why can't we live and die together?"

"Even if we have to send troops into battle, we can't do it this way."

"That's right, if we want to fight, we must fight together!"

"."

Such voices of disobedience echoed one after another on the decks of each ship. In the end, the most dangerous soldiers were quickly selected by drawing lots.

They bid farewell to their brothers who were not chosen!
At this moment, the saying 'men don't shed tears easily' is simply not true!

At this moment, whether they were the soldiers who were selected and were about to board the 'Net Shuttle', or the soldiers who were not selected and stayed on the deck, they all had tears in their eyes as they looked at the comrades who had eaten, lived and trained together.

They know that this farewell may be forever!

But for the sake of the Ming Dynasty behind them and to fight against this country of Japanese pirates, they still parted ways resolutely.

They passed through the bilge and entered the stern cabin under the watchful eyes of the oarsmen.

After a while, the tail cabin door opened, and the ultra-small warships launched into the water along the slide rails.

In Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes, these ultra-small warships, which had a draft of only two or three feet and were similar in design to dragon boats, were being launched one after another.

These young men were also boarding the ship one after another and adjusting the direction of the ship's bow until it aimed at the beach where the Japanese navy was located.

"Is this the shuttle ship?"

"We understand, it is shaped like a 'shuttle' on a loom. During war, it is launched into the water like dumplings and lands quickly, like a 'big net' in the sea!"

Looking at this scene, when Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Ye Qing's back, there was once again a faint look of horror in his eyes.

The technology of this shuttle ship is not that great, but what is commendable is that when he designed the large warship, Ye Qing had already thought about the factors that would prevent the enemy's dock from docking large warships.

This kind of foresight that takes one step and sees three steps is the most admirable.

"Is this kind of foresight really expected of a young man who has no experience in naval warfare and is just a well-read man?"

"With such a talent, he still dares to call himself clumsy?"

"nausea!"

"That's so fucking disgusting!"

Just when Zhu Yuanzhang and others were looking at Ye Qing's back, shocked and scolding, Yamamoto Kazuki, who was still lining up on the beach, his eyes widened.

"Big boats give birth to small boats, and big turtles lay eggs?"

"How is it possible? Whose idea was this?"

"Why was it that such a talented shipbuilder was not born in the Southern Dynasty of Japan? How come all the talented people from all over the world are flocking to China to be born?"

"."

Yamamoto Kazuki and his soldiers looked at the scene in front of them and felt that it was quite unfair.

In their view, the land of China, which is adjacent to them across the sea, is already vast and rich in resources.

But it is such a big country with a vast territory and abundant resources, and there are so many talented people that it is really unfair to suppress them to this day.

Such complaints appeared in the hearts of every naval soldier of the Japanese and Southern Dynasties.

But no matter how much they complain, they have no choice but to face reality!
"Prepare for war!"

"Prepare for war!!!"

Yamamoto Kazuki gritted his teeth and issued this simple and only combat order.

Yes,

The combat orders he can issue now are just to prepare for war with all his strength.

at the same time,

Wang Baobao's eyes lit up immediately, and he looked at the Japanese soldiers on the beach, his eyes as sharp as swords.

"Pass this Commander's orders,"

"All shuttle ships, attack!".
