Chapter 626 The Allied Forces Go North

In midsummer, the sun was scorching. When Wang Jianzhi returned to the long-lost Ning B, it was already June of the third year of Zhengde.

Under the clear sky, Wang Jianzhi's heart was shrouded in yn haze. In Anluzhou, he had tried all his strength, but in the end he could not keep the people of King Xing Zhu Youze, let alone keep the other party's heart.

Although the prince also had some thoughts about the position of the supreme, he could not resist practicing Taoism after all. No, it should be said that he was passionate about studying science, and was deceived by the old Taoist with a kaleidoscope.

King Ning was very determined. He had been staying in the palace to pretend to be sick, and the messenger had not even seen him. After being hung for more than ten days, the messenger simply set off and returned to Beijing.

However, compared with King Xing, King Ning's qualifications are much worse. The former is the fourth of Emperor Xianzong, the brother of Emperor Xiaozong, and the closest branch of the royal family to the current emperor, which is easier to convince the public.

King Ning can only start with Taizu. This blood relationship is quite nonsense. It is impossible to get to the top naturally. He can only make other abacuses. It is precisely because of this that King Ning is so active.

Of course, it doesn't matter whether you have a vassal king in your hands, just keep a backup. Otherwise, Wang Jiao would have made some arrangements long ago. After entering the capital, their identities would not change. When the task was completed, they would not believe that the vassal kings would come to ask for help without crying and shouting. Wang Jianzhi just couldn't swallow his anger.

Besides, the envoy who persuaded King Ning to leave was so casual, even more simply than not paying for the house. The old man who persuaded King Xing did not look like an important person. Wang Jianzhi always felt that there was something strange here. These envoys were too confident and were too careless about things, right?

Looking at the bustling scene of the dock, he was a little confused. At the beginning of the year, this scene made him very passionate, but when he saw him again, he couldn't get any energy, and he felt that everything was boring.

In fact, Wang Jianzhi himself knew that this was the result of a blow to his self-confidence. According to common sense, the Jiangnan Alliance should have no reason to fail. After all, the preparations are quite sufficient and the strength is unprecedentedly strong.

However, in Xie Hong, the common sense is often not very smart. If there is really a possibility, then... in the dog days, Wang Jianzhi suddenly shivered. The result was so terrible that he didn't even dare to think about it.

"Ming Zhong, since I'm back, why don't I come to see me? Do you think the humble house is simple and the hospitality is not good?" The voice was a little old, but full of energy. This voice was heard less before, but since last year, I heard it from time to time. Even though I was a little lost, Wang Jianzhi reacted immediately.

"Gei Master Xie, why are you here in person?"

"It's a big deal. If I don't watch it with my own eyes, I'm really worried."

Looking up at the bustling docks, Xie Qian sighed long and said, "As Wang Jizhi said, you must be well prepared to deal with that person, and then use a thunder strike to make him doomed and not give him a chance to rekindle... If I could understand this truth earlier, I would not be as embarrassed as I am now."

"What the Master said is..." Wang Jianzhi didn't know how to answer.

That's right, if Xie Hong came to Beijing and the important officials in the court attacked him with all their might, even if he had the support of Zhengde, he would have to be in panic all day long and would never be able to make trouble. However, there is no regret medicine in the world, and nothing else is in vain. If you want to stop the enemy, you can only do it with real swords and guns.

After thinking for a long time, he still felt that he should express his concerns. No one would underestimate the enemy anymore, but more people would always make the plan more perfect. He said carefully: "Gei Master, the lower official is here from Anluzhou this time..."

"Ming Zhong is too worried." Xie Qian waved his hand disapprovingly.

"But, Master..." Wang Jianzhi was most afraid of seeing this careless attitude, so he hurriedly argued.

"Although you know a little about the jealousy from all sources, you have never dealt with him head-on. But I have been many times since he entered Beijing..." Speaking of this, Xie Qian frowned, obviously thinking of something unhappy.

He shook his head and smiled bitterly, "I don't hide it. That year, I also got into a trap, suffered losses, and even had a serious illness. But do you know that Ming Zhong? That man had never been famous and had not yet received the favor from the emperor. He was already in such a temper. He was outside Guangding Gate that day, and all the officials were there, and the crowd was like the sea, and there was no limit to the sight..."

"Haha, if I was at his age and had been in a different place with him, I might not have been able to stand firmly, but he was very calm and finally gave the emperor that bad move. Although I don't know how he developed such a scheming at such a young age, I can assert that even if he was at the end of the road, I'm afraid he would be indifferent to nothing."

"What the Master said is, but..." Wang Jianzhi had long seen Xie Hong's information, but he had no direct impression. He was convinced of Xie Qian's words. But he was also an independent person after all, and this worry was not something that could be done for a day or two, and it was not so easy to be persuaded.

"Ming Zhong, the military strategy says: If you cannot win, you will win, you will win."

Xie Qian raised his hand and pointed to the dock and said, "The Jiangnan colleagues work together. Some people come out, and there are ships come out. We are ready for years to enhance our strength. This time, we will not hope for the stupidity of the enemy, nor will we underestimate the enemy. We do not use any strategy, but only use a dignified army to attack the enemy and rescue them."

As he said, his tone gradually became louder: "If you don't have to win, you won't be outstanding, you won't fight. It's a matter of one battle. We have worked hard and even endured humiliation and endured the heavy lifting of the enemy. Now that we have prepared thoroughly, how can we be invincible?"

Wang Jianzhi was also in love with him. Just when he was about to say something, Xie Qian turned his head, his eyes shining brightly, and said with great momentum: "I have made up my plan with all my colleagues. I will set sail in three days and take Lushun directly. Don't let the jān be awarded the title!"

"So fast?"

"If you don't get it, you will suffer the consequences. Now it's the best time for heaven, so how can you delay it?"

"The students have been taught." In the severing sea breeze, Wang Jianzhi suddenly became enlightened and bowed to Xie Qian.

...

The time for departure was set a few days ago. This is why Ningb Pier is so busy. Because it is very chaotic, no one noticed that two people were also talking quietly on a boat in the harbor.

"Brother Hai, what should I do? The superiors have already known it. They will send troops in three days. There are so many ships and so many people. How can Lushun stand it?" Er's speech was quite neat, but when he was anxious, he would turn into a big tongue. Wang Jianzhi was only worried about gains and losses, but he was already anxious now.

"Don't panic, the Marquis has been prepared for a long time, so there should be no problem." When Wang Hai said this, he was not confident.

He was originally very confident, but it was an assessment based on the previous standards. There are not many people in the Jiangnan Navy now, but his strength is completely different. The key is the ship.

Wang Hai didn't know what the treasure ship fleet was like back then, but he was sure that if he didn't consider the size of a single ship and only compared to the loading capacity of the ship, then the fleet in front of him would probably not be much worse than the legendary fleet, and of course, the number would be far greater than that.

There are nearly a thousand large and medium-sized ships, and there are countless small boats. This is the size of the coalition fleet. When these ships gather in Ningb Port, looking from a distance, you even have an illusion that you have a large piece of land that you have added to Ningb Port.

This number alone is enough to make people amazed, and the people on the ship are completely different from the maritime merchants. The main ones from each family were sailors, and the captains were replaced by generals and schoolmen in the navy, while the pirates were arranged separately. The person in charge of command was Liang Cheng, the admiral of the Guangdong Navy.

It turns out that if someone calls Liang Cheng the admiral, he will definitely turn against him. It must be not a honorary title, but a satirical mockery. In the past, the broken ships of the navy were not even many pirates. His own income was even lower, and he had to rely on family subsidies to survive. How dare he call himself an admiral?

Of course it is different now. The scholars gave him full authority to command the navy, and no one mentioned the situation in the court at all.

In fact, scholars do not understand that they have specialized in such professions, but adults are all clear about the public. In the court, if you want to seize merits and suppress military personnel, you must send military supervisors. But now the coalition forces are all smashing the mountains and seas of silver, how can they be so rash?

If this is defeated, it is not as simple as apologizing. Therefore, the scholars rarely confessed to the naval battle, and entrusted the power of training and command to Admiral Liang with full authority.

Liang Cheng was able to rise to power not only because of the power of the Liang family, but also because he had a lot of skills. For more than half a year, he has trained the navy in accordance with the military tactics and had strict rules. Now the coalition forces have undergone earth-shaking changes.

Not to mention that when I was on the Five Islands, I was so scared that I was trembling by ten flywheel warships that I didn’t even dare to run away. If it were the current navy, who might win or lose.

Brother Wang Hai has long regarded himself as Xie Hong's person. How could he not be anxious when he sees such a situation? A good tiger can't resist the wolves, let alone the number gap is so big?

"Brother, otherwise, I would go to Liaodong to report the news while I was driving a small boat at night?" Er said again.

"No, you may not be able to go out, and it's too late." Wang Hai shook his head sadly.

Ning B made such a big noise, but there was no news outside because the defense here was extremely strict. The surrounding area was the territory of aristocratic families, which was not much worse than the mass base of Liaodong. With the intention to prevent it, it was difficult for outside exploration to get into the sky.

The same is true at sea. No matter day and night, there are always ships patrolling and commuting at sea. Moreover, the patrolling ships were the imitation flywheel warships that made Wang Hai most afraid. He thought that the Marquis' craftsmanship was comparable to that of no one in the world, but who would have thought that this ship was really imitated.

Wang Hai didn't understand the skills, but if he could only evaluate it from xn, he felt that the ship was not much different from what he saw on the Five Islands. It was very fast, especially terrifying when it exploded, and its steering was very flexible. The worst thing was that there were also very supporting weapons on the ship!

That's right, there are weapons on the ship, and they are very practical weapons. Wang Hai is very familiar with the sea ship, but when he saw the ship and the weapons on it, he was still shocked from his heart. The emotion was no less than seeing the thunder cannon on the flywheel warship, and it was even better than that.

It is hard to say which of these two weapons is stronger. With Wang Hai's eyes, he naturally knows that they have their own advantages and disadvantages, but it is precisely because of their own advantages and disadvantages that he was surprised. He did not expect that there were such powerful craftsmen in Jiangnan who could not only imitate things, but also learn from other things. At least on the flywheel warship, he was no longer distinguished from the Marquis.

The words of Jiangnan’s outstanding people and spirits are really not in vain. When the scholars changed their attitude and suddenly took the craftsmen seriously, Jiangnan’s craftsmen burst out with extraordinary power.

However, a group of people with such skills were unknown before and were completely unknown to outsiders, and they might not even know it themselves. After all, before there was no hope of rewarding and redeeming oneself, they were just doing repetitive work day after day.

Wang Hai thought this incident was ironic and made him feel a little sad.

Because of the Marquis, these famous craftsmen had the opportunity to stand out and show the world their extraordinary skills. The Marquis should be their benefactor. However, their works will be taken against the Marquis. If the Marquis really collapsed, these craftsmen would repeat their previous experiences and would never have the glory of today.

Those new ships and weapons are indeed easy to use, but the adults of the aristocratic family would not care. Before the Marquis, no enemy could threaten them. They only care about the benefits and their own reputation and status. It has greatly violated their previous style of work.

While being proud, Wang Hai was hoping that the scholars would return to their previous style. If it weren't for the xxx of the flywheel warships, he would have thought of a way to report the message, so how could he use his brother to remind him? Unfortunately, with these xxx of the fast ships, reporting the message has become a luxury.

It must be said that the serious family is very terrifying, and the terrible level is completely beyond Wang Hai's expectations.

In addition to the imitation of flywheel warships and weapons on it, the Xu brothers also brought ways to restrain the phosphorus fire of the Thunderbolt Cannon. Although the sharp weapon is still threatening, it will no longer have the effect of being invincible as it was originally.

These are not the keys that make Wang Hai worried. He believed that the Marquis had a way to win, but if he added another thing, the result would be hard to say.

Wang Hai had never seen that thing with his own eyes, but from several familiar sea merchants, he still heard some rumors and knew how terrifying the power of that weapon was.

Faced with so many unfavorable factors, can Lushun, who has not prepared in advance, stand it? Wang Hai asked a question mark in his heart.

"Ignore so much. The auspicious person has his own heaven. It's not your turn to the marquis. Second, the news that I asked you to spread has been spread out?"

"Don't worry, I'll get the letter from the sea dogs. I think they are hesitant. Now they are in a big way, so they dare not do anything, but if there is any good, it's hard to say, haha."

"Okay, let's see if there is any chance at that time." r!.
