The sea is always full of uncertainties, and people who live on the sea need to look at the face of God.Dutch Fleet Commander Waite seemed to have eaten a huge fly at this time, his face was as ugly as it was, and three of his favorite ceramic cups had already been dropped.

At this time yesterday, Waite was still full of confidence, and his determination to launch an attack this morning was very firm.But this heavy fog disrupted Werther's plan. This feeling of being out of control made Werther feel very bad.I originally wanted to catch the Spaniard by surprise, but it seems that this time there is no hope.

Zheng Zhilong on the other side was very at ease, sitting on his flagship, drinking wine in a leisurely manner.The taste of this wine is very good, the Dutchman is still coming out with something good.Regarding the attack on Spain, Zheng Zhilong's attitude of playing soy sauce is good. In his opinion, this fog couldn't be better.If you can't let the Spaniards and the Dutch lose out, how can you reap the benefits?

After drinking the wine in the glass in one gulp, Zheng Zhihu poured another glass for himself, and drank it in one gulp again. When he was about to pour it, Zheng Zhilong's voice came over.

"If you want to drink to the back, don't waste things here! But don't drink too much, maybe there will be a war sometime!" Zheng Zhilong frowned and looked at his younger brother, and said with a bit of helplessness on his face.

Although they are first-class compatriots, the three brothers have very different personalities. Zheng Zhilong is stable and resourceful.Zheng Zhihu, on the other hand, has a very fiery personality, an absolute firecracker temper, and will catch fire when he touches the fire.The third brother Zheng Zhibao has a very introverted personality. He is usually silent, but his personality is very stubborn.I have my own ideas, and it is very difficult to change things once I have identified them.If it's really evil.It is still the third brother Zheng Zhibao.

Putting down the cup in his hand embarrassingly, although Zheng Zhihu's personality is very fiery, he is very afraid of Zheng Zhilong.Smiling, he came to Zheng Zhilong's side and flattered him: "Brother, it's not a problem for us to wait here! These Dutchmen don't do anything, and the cowhide blows loudly. It's really a critical moment, and they are all useless!"

Gently shaking the wine glass in his hand, Zheng Zhilong said with a smile: "You don't understand, these Dutch people are very smart. For them, this is just the opening war, destroying Spain with minimal casualties People, that's what they want."

"While wanting to cooperate with me, they also want to be wary of us. These red-haired ghosts are really stingy!" Zheng Zhihu's face flashed a hint of sarcasm and perseverance.He didn't dare to say that about the Dutch before, but now the powerful fleet has given the Zheng family the capital to be arrogant.

Hearing Zheng Zhihu's words, Zheng Zhilong frowned slightly, but he did not refute Zheng Zhihu, but said lightly: "This shows that the Dutch are very smart, and we will definitely have a war with the Dutch. As the saying goes, one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers. I just don't want Spain to People take advantage of it. We just came here together, and this is also the tacit understanding between us and the Dutch."

"Brother, the Dutch reinforcements have come. This time they sent ten warships of their own, and thirty warships they recruited. These are the full strength of the Dutch. I don't know if they put them in Penghu. How many people were killed?" Zheng Zhibao on the side kept wiping the saber in his hand, which he captured from a group of Japanese pirates.Ever since the Japanese pirate leader was chopped to death with one knife, this knife has become Zheng Zhibao's weapon.I like it very much on weekdays.

He glanced at his third brother in surprise. Usually, Zheng Zhibao would not speak at such times.However, Zheng Zhilong has always answered questions about his younger brother.Zheng Zhilong has always wanted to train his younger brother to be an independent player, and Zheng Zhilong will naturally not give up such an opportunity.

I lowered my head and thought about it.Zheng Zhilong said in a deep voice: "We don't know how much the Dutch have increased their troops. But we know one thing very well, that is, these increased troops have given the Dutch enough confidence. At the beginning, they were just huddled in Penghu, and I wanted to eat them all at once. Lose them, they also understand this, that's why they hide in Penghu. Now that they dare to come out so blatantly, they naturally have the confidence."

"This time, neither of us did our best. Firstly, it was unnecessary, and secondly, we were all on guard against each other. If someone's hometown is cleaned up at this time, I don't think I will be surprised." Zheng Zhilong put down the wine glass in his hand, stood up slowly, and looked at the sea in the distance.

This battle is the beginning of the war in the Taiwan Strait, the beginning of destiny!As for the navy of the Ming Dynasty, neither Zheng Zhilong nor the Dutch probably paid much attention to it.

The fog slowly dissipated, the sun once again shone on the sea, and the sea returned to its former tranquility.But it was almost noon, and the tide was only two or three hours away, so the attack had become impossible.The Dutchman and Zheng Zhilong were cruising far away on the sea, waiting for the right time to attack tomorrow morning.

The waves are constantly beating on the side of the ship, and the fleet is bracing the wind and waves to move forward. It is the navy of the Ming Dynasty that was forgotten by the Dutch and Zheng Zhilong.Or it's not that I have forgotten it, but that I don't care about it from the bottom of my heart.It's just that they didn't expect that it was this fleet that none of them took to heart, which would teach them an unforgettable lesson in their lives, a lesson baptized with blood.

Standing at the bow of the ship in military uniform, the bright red cloak was flapping in the sea breeze, Qi Jin pressed his right hand to fight, with an unconcealable excitement on his face.The salty smell of seawater seemed to change Qi Jin's sense of smell, and he seemed to smell a strong smell of blood from inside.

Yu Zigao, who was also in military uniform beside him, gently put away the binoculars in his hand, and the beard on his face was constantly swaying with the sea breeze.

"The two generals are so excited!" Nan Juyi, who was dressed in a bright red official uniform, came up from behind and said with a big smile.As a civil servant, Nan Juyi is not seasick, but enjoys it very much.

"Master Nan, it's very windy at sea, we'll leave the affairs here to us!" Qi Jin looked at Nan Juyi with a wry smile, with a bit of helplessness on his face, who would have thought that Nan Juyi would follow.

Glancing at Qi Jin, Nan Juyi didn't seem to see Qi Jin's face, and still said with a smile: "General Qi seems to be dissatisfied with my actions! But I don't want to miss such a big battle. Besides, a civil servant can win When it comes to military merit, this is a rare thing. The two generals are close ministers of the emperor, so they probably wouldn't care about Nan's contribution!"

Qi Jin didn't expect this Nandu man to be so direct, and he didn't hide his intentions at all.She cupped her fists at Nan Juyi, said with a smile, "Master Nan is indeed a gentleman, Qi admires it."

"General Qi is absurd. How can a gentleman compete with others? Nan is already acting like a villain!" Nan Juyi smiled wryly and shook his head. This opportunity is too important to him, and he can't care about some flaws .

"Your Majesty Nan's words are wrong. Your Majesty has a will this time. Your Majesty Nan is in charge of the war in the Taiwan Strait. Being able to attend the battle in person shows that Your Majesty Nan is in charge. Your Majesty will understand that Master Nan will serve the country with all his might." Yu Zigao turned his head, Looking at Nan Juyi with a smile, he said sincerely.

Things are already like this, and Nan Juyi can't be sent back, so let's make a good impression on each other!Everyone is in the officialdom, maybe who helps whom!Because of his father, Yu Zigao became much smoother.

"The three are all here! Since that's the case, I don't need to look for you!" A person came up from behind, wearing a fifth-rank official uniform, and it was Shi Zhang Yukun, the commander of the army.

This person is Yu Dayou's younger brother, Yu Zigao's father, who studied under Zhao Benxue, a contemporary military master, and is especially good at naval warfare.Because he didn't participate in the imperial examination and he didn't have any credit, he was assigned such a position by Emperor Tianqi.

"Master, are you here?" When Yu Zigao saw Zhang Yukun, a smile appeared on his face.But in terms of seniority, this is Yu Zigao's uncle.In terms of ability, this uncle may have to beat Yu Zigao by a few streets.

Now the Ming Dynasty's navy has more than sixty warships, including forty combat ships and ten troop carriers.There are also supply ships and other warships, which can be said to be very complete.These things are easily grasped in Zhang Yukun's hands.Whether it's fleet formation, battle command, or even semaphore, he has a lot of research.

Compared to Qi Jin and Yu Zigao, Zhang Yukun is more like the soul of this fleet.Shen Yourong, who was originally promoted by Emperor Tianqi, failed to persist until this time, and had passed away in his hometown three months ago.

"It turned out to be Mr. Zhang. I wonder if Mr. Zhang has drawn up a strategy?" Regarding the existence of Zhang Yukun, Nan Juyi only found out when he got on the boat.After learning about the situation, Nan Juyi didn't dare to underestimate Zhang Yukun at all, and he talked about his peers, without any airs of officialdom.

"Master Nan, you're being polite. I'm a low-level official, so I still need a little more from Nan Juyi." Regarding Nan Juyi's compliments, Zhang Yukun didn't accept all of them. After all, he had already set foot in the officialdom, and many things still had to be done in accordance with the rules of the officialdom of.

Yu Zigao on the side seemed to be unable to wait any longer, and gave Nan Juyi an apologetic look, and asked, "Master, if you have any ideas, please tell me quickly! We are going to Penghu soon, you always have to take Come up with a strategy!"

Nodding his head, Zhang Yukun said with a smile: "It's natural. Although naval battles are about strong ships and sharp guns, there must be rules. As the saying goes, speed is the most important thing. We went straight to Penghu this time and caught the Dutch by surprise. One thing to be careful about is that we must not leak any news along the way. Even when we attacked Penghu, we sent warships to block it, and tried not to leak any news. You must know that we didn’t end up beating a Dutchman!”

The three people on one side nodded, this is natural, something that must be paid attention to. (To be continued..)
