When Grisha made this suggestion, Qian Wubing really considered it carefully. Otherwise, there would not have been today's military discussion.
However, when Yan Qi analyzed it like this, his mind was like ten thousand grass and mud horses galloping past! It almost happened, so he was thinking about whether he could win and how to win, but he had no direction at all. The Spaniard's choice was far more than that.
A sort of.
But he had only one choice.
Regardless of whether Qian Wubing admits it or not, he is no longer the person he used to be when he was in Nanjing and Datong. As his official position becomes bigger and bigger, his abilities become stronger and stronger. He relies on him and puts all his wealth and life into
There are more and more people who are related to him. It is absolutely true to say that one word can affect the whole body.
Yes, the sneak attack may succeed, but it may also fail. It is more likely that when they sneak attack Luzon, the Spanish fleet will bomb Danshui into ruins. The possibility of failure is far greater than the possibility of their sneak attack succeeding.
, even if their sneak attack was successful, once they lost the fresh water, their victory would become worthless.
He cannot afford to fail! Moreover, he feels that he does not have the capital to make a comeback after failure. Once Danshui is destroyed and the fleet is severely damaged, in this short period of time, there will be no one in the east and west, and along the coast of Ming Dynasty, that can fight against the Spanish fleet.
Even if the imperial court attaches great importance to this matter, once he fails and the shipyards build warships on a large scale, it is absolutely impossible to produce a combat-effective navy in a year and a half. Moreover, the people who control the Ming Dynasty Sea Territory
Will the Spanish watch helplessly as Ming Dynasty builds ships to deal with them?
"I failed to consider this matter!" Qian Wubing bluntly admitted his negligence, "I am so eager to win that I do get dizzy sometimes!"
Everyone was silent. It was okay for Qian Wubing to say this, but it was not okay for him as a subordinate to judge.
"This proposal is over now. We will remain unchanged in the face of all changes and stick to Tamsui!" Qian Wubing decided: "Also, after the storm, the spies from the overseas Qianhu Station must take action, regardless of whether the enemy chooses to attack Tamsui.
, I need to know their movements, and only by knowing myself and the enemy can I be victorious in every battle!"
Everyone agreed with a bang and left. This military meeting was considered a complete failure.
"This is obviously a good idea, but you are too cowardly and don't take any risks. How can you be regarded as warriors? Victory will not fall from the sky!" Grisha, who had been silent for the whole time, was worried about the lack of money.
After all the sick subordinates left, he muttered: "I just really want to help out a little bit. Why don't you just return the Princess to me, so that I can do something!"
"If you don't do anything, you are already helping!" Qian Wubing shook his head and categorically rejected Grisha's suggestion: "How about you go to Jiangnan to supervise the wars that those families have modified.
The other ship transports some of the goods from our port back, you are very good at this!"
"Don't always think of me as a businessman!" Grisha shouted aggrievedly: "I have this empire on my shoulders, do you know?"
After saying this, she seemed to reflect Qian Wubing's words: "You just said, I don't do anything, I am already helping. What do you mean?"
"You are in Tamsui, and many people feel uneasy!" Qian Wubing pondered for a moment, then said slowly: "After the storm, if you go to Jiangnan, the situation will be better!"
"Does this person who is not at ease include you?" Grisha's face showed a trace of thoughtful affection: "For this reason, you won't even return the Princess to me. This is because,
You don’t know that in the upcoming war, are those Li people loyal to me or to you?”
Talking to smart people about life is easy. With Qian Wubing's gentle touch, Grisha understood what he meant.
"Then, are you willing to go to Jiangnan?" Qian Wubing raised his eyebrows and asked slowly: "If this battle is defeated, no matter how many people are still fighting against you in their hearts, in the Ming Dynasty, they will no longer
They have a little foothold, but the imperial court will not take any money to move the remaining people back to the northwest. The best result is to let them fend for themselves!"
"You won't leave those modified armed merchant ships under my command, right?" Grisha asked.
"Well, I will let Wu Qianhu from Longjiang Qianhu Office be the temporary commander!" Qian Wubing said bluntly.
"Then what's the point of me going?" Grisha shook her head: "If I want to avoid suspicion, I can go to Fusang and Goryeo. At least, in these places, there is no one who can control me!"
"You can be a businessman!" Qian Wubing knew this topic, but Grisha didn't like it, and still refused to let it go: "Refitting the fleet requires money, and the palace and nobles also need to share the dividends. We are not the navy of the Ming Dynasty.
, all this requires money, but no one gives us this money! In the end, we are just a merchant fleet."
"So, the goods staying in the cargo hold will be turned into silver, warships and soldiers, and strong support for me from the emperor to the ministers in our court. You are familiar with this matter better than anyone else. Go
I trust you enough, isn’t this reason enough?”
"But there are so many goods, not only from our fleet, but also from the fleets that go to sea with us. They bring back a large amount of goods and sell them at the same time. We will lose a lot of money!"
"I don't care!" Qian Wubing shook his head, "Besides, I know that you will definitely minimize our losses and let me deal with our common enemy without any distractions!"
Qian Wubing bit the "common enemies" harder. Grisha's expression changed, and she was finally tempted.
"It's just a different division of labor. It's better than you here coming up with some ideas that almost make me make mistakes!" Qian Wubing said. Grisha nodded and finally agreed with Qian Wubing's words: "What ship should I take with me?"
!?"
"The non-combat ships in the port are at your disposal. If anyone is dissatisfied, ask him to come to me!" Qian Wubing waved his hand, "As soon as the storm subsides, you can set off immediately and save me the trouble of paying for these ships and cargo.
Have more to worry about!
"I will ask Wang Yu to send a few noble disciples to follow you. I can't let you have no support and be exploited by those blind people on the road!"
"My lord, my lord, something happened!!" Just after explaining, a shout suddenly came from outside. The two of them looked at each other, and their hearts moved. At this time, does the Spaniard still have the courage to do it in such weather?
