My life skills in Daming Liver

Since the death of Wang Zhi, Xu Hai also died. After the death of the leaders of the two factions of Japanese pirates, the trading faction and the predatory faction merged, and Ming called it Xinwa.

Xinwa no longer has the leader of the pirates in the previous sense. It is an alliance composed of various pirates and pirates, and they have agreed to attack the coastal areas of Daming together.

However, although there is no nominal leader anymore, there are still several influential forces. Among them, the pirate gang led by Lin Daoqian and Zeng Yiben is a relatively large one.

Lin Daoqian is from Chaozhou Prefecture, and it is said that he is still a branch of the waiting officer Lin's family. He was originally a landlord in Chaozhou.

Later, seeing that the smuggling business along the coast made money, he led the villagers to smuggle out to sea and made a lot of profits.

Someone in the village wanted to report and expose Lin Daogan's smuggling, so Lin Daoqian killed the villager with his own hands, intimidating everyone to make an oath of blood and not betray him.

Lin Daoqian's maritime "business" is getting bigger and bigger, relying on the smuggling of Chaozhou Prefecture, Lin Daoqian also joined Wang Zhi's command.

After Wang Zhi's death, Lin Daoqian accepted most of Wang Zhi's remnants and became the largest force in the sea.

But this time, the pirates had a dispute over the target of the attack.

Now the Feilong army in the Fujian-Vietnam border area is powerful, and they also sent envoys to join the Japanese pirates and invite them to attack Chaozhou together.

Chaozhou Prefecture is Lin Daogan's hometown, but the prefect of Chaozhou can be regarded as a capable person against the Japanese. Neither the Feilong Army nor the Japanese pirates have been able to conquer Chaozhou Prefecture for the time being.

It is impossible for the Feilong regime to bypass such a critical area as Chaozhou and go south. If it wants to attack Canton, it must capture Chaozhou.

However, Lin Daoqian was not very interested in attacking Chaozhou Prefecture.

Doesn't Lin Daoqian know what his hometown looks like?

The Feilong army was already poor before the uprising, and they are still poor now. Attacking the Chaozhou government is completely thankless.

Moreover, the foundation of the Flying Dragon Army was on land, so they took the lead in defeating Chaozhou Prefecture. They would at most give the Japanese pirates a few docks, and they would not make any money at all.

Today the warships of the Japanese pirates gathered in the South China Sea to discuss where to attack.

However, after Wang Zhi's death, the Japanese pirates carried out a bloody merger, so each family distrusted each other and refused to go to any party's territory for meetings.

That's why I came up with this proposal to hold a meeting at sea.

Even so, the leaders of the various pirates refused to leave their ships, but let the small boats pass messages between the ships of each family.

It is naturally extremely inefficient to spread the word like this, but this method can only be used among Japanese pirates who don't trust each other.

After a day and a night of discussions (most of the time in rowing boats), Lin Daoqian's opinion prevailed.

Still hit Fujian!

During the Ming Dynasty, Fujian was still richer than Guangdong.

More importantly, after Su Ze intervened, Fujian is now a port for foreign trade.

Lin Daoqian's proposal is very bold, to attack Fuzhou City, the provincial capital of Fujian!

Lin Daoqian's reasons also made other Japanese pirates unable to refuse.

Because of the blockade of the sea area last year, the Fuzhou Shipping Department still has silk worth 300,000 taels of silver that has not been sold.

These silks were originally intended to be sold to the Ryukyu tribute missions, but due to the Japanese invasion, they were backlogged in the warehouses in Fuzhou.

As long as you attack Fuzhou, you can get this silk worth 300,000 taels of silver!

Naturally, this temptation cannot be refused by all Japanese pirates.

Just when the Japanese pirates were discussing to attack Fuzhou, Qi Jiguang came to Fuzhou in person and held a joint military discussion with Su Ze.

During this time, Su Ze sent people to help Qi Jiguang train the navy in Xinghua Mansion to resist the attack of the Feilong army.

When Qi Jiguang had no Japanese pirates, he continued to use the Feilong Army to train troops, and sent his troops to attack Tingzhou, nailing the Feilong Army to the southern Fujian area, and was still unable to go north.

After the founding of Feilong, Zhang Lian was more addicted to pleasure, and he conferred a large number of marshals and princes.

The rebel army with a large number of people often collapsed in a single battle when faced with an official army whose number was far smaller than their own.

Qi Jiguang fought steadily and took back all the big cities in Tingzhou Prefecture, cutting off the connection between the Fujian-Guangyi Army and the Jiangxi Rebel Army.

Such a series of officials rewarded by Zhang Lian naturally did not receive salaries in the Feilong court.

But these people were either following Zhang Lian's old brothers in "Jiangshan", or they were positions bought with money, and they wantonly plundered places in the name of the Feilong court.

Qi Jiguang has already seen that the so-called Feilong Rebel Army is nothing to worry about, so he directly uses the Feilong Army to gain experience.

But Xinwa is different from the Flying Dragon Army. These pirates are really desperate.

Qi Jiguang also has eyes and ears at sea, and when he heard the news that the Japanese pirates were going to attack the southeast again this time, he quickly contacted Su Ze to jointly fight against the Japanese pirates.

Qi Jiguang went to Fuzhou Mansion in person, boarded Chuanshi Island and discussed the military situation with Su Ze.

This is the first time Qi Jiguang has landed on Chuanshi Island.

The cooperation agreement with Su Ze also included that Su Ze helped Qi Jiguang train grassroots officers.

After half a year, the grassroots officers in Qi Jiguang's army have all been on Chuanshi Island and participated in short training courses taught by Su Ze himself.

Qi Jiguang was also pleasantly surprised to find that the officers who had "advanced training" in Chuanshi Island were indeed much easier to use than before.

Qi Jiguang sighed, Su Ze deserves to be a master of the art of war.

Today he finally landed on Chuanshi Island himself. Looking at the neat barracks, Qi Jiguang finally understood why every officer who went to Chuanshi Island for training would say that Chuanshi Island is fine.

"General Qi!"

Su Ze stood in front of the Navy New Army Academy and welcomed Qi Jiguang into the campus.

Qi Jiguang looked at the well-tended lawn, two teams, one red and one blue, were playing Cuju?

Cuju is originally a military drama, and Qi Jiguang is no stranger to it. After watching it for a while, he was attracted by this wonderful game.

"Shoot! Shot in!"

Qi Jiguang didn't pay attention to the result of the game, but looked at the players who had been running on the field, and couldn't help saying: "Su Xianggong, you are really an elite soldier!"

The rule of cuju is also to kick the ball with the foot. Su Ze expanded the field of cuju, and the players need to run within the scope of a football field. After watching it for a while, Qi Jiguang knew how much exercise was involved in such a game.

Almost all the team members were running non-stop, and Qi Jiguang knew that elite soldiers who were not raised with polished rice and meat would not be able to bear such an amount of exercise.

Sure enough, when he got closer, Qi Jiguang saw the tendons on these team members, and Qi Jiguang knew that these were first-class elites.

Su Ze said with a smile: "It's just a military show, General Qi please."

Everyone came to the lecture hall where Su Ze was teaching. Qi Jiguang didn't understand why Su Ze wanted to discuss matters with him here. He only saw a huge sand table being carried into the lecture hall.

Twenty young officers in military uniforms also stood behind Su Ze in unison.

Qi Jiguang approached the sand table, which will be a detailed sand table of Fujian and the outer sea, even the islands in the sea are marked.

Qi Jiguang had never seen such an exquisite sand table, he looked up at Su Ze in surprise.

"This is the sand table that Su sent people to survey and map one by one according to the sea charts of Westerners. Su can say that this is the most detailed Fujian sand table."

Naturally, this sand table was made by Su Ze himself. In addition to the land of Fujian, there are more than 50 large islands in the outer sea marked on the sand table. These are all the students of the Su Ze Navy's new army, using theodolite survey data.

Just by making such a map, Su Ze upgraded the newly learned [Cartography] skill to Lv4.

Su Ze said: "General Qi, based on the information you sent, combined with the dynamics at sea, we conducted a sand table deduction."

"Lin Liangjun, tell me about the results of the sand table deduction."

"Yes! Head of the mountain!"

Lin Liangjun stepped out, picked up a putter used for weapon deduction and said:

"According to the results of our staff team's deduction, the most likely target of the new Japanese invasion this time is Fuzhou Prefecture!"

Qi Jiguang knew that Su Ze also had his own channel of information at sea, but the new army of the Fuzhou Navy was so sure that the Japanese pirates would attack Fuzhou, which surprised Qi Jiguang very much.

Qi Jiguang was not afraid of confronting the Japanese pirates, but the Japanese pirates often came and went like the wind when attacking at sea. Sometimes the officers and soldiers arrived at the battlefield, and the Japanese pirates had already robbed and fled by boat.

Even if Su Ze had an insider inside the Japanese pirates, it might be false information?

Lin Liangjun said confidently: "This is the result of our deduction, General Qi, please listen."

"The result of our deduction is that the Japanese pirates are going to attack Fuzhou Fucheng, based on the following judgments."

"First of all, it is impossible for the Japanese pirates to invade directly from the Japanese country. They must find temporary lairs in the sea and use them as a springboard to attack. This time, the new Japanese invaded with a crowd of more than 10,000 people. Therefore, the island used as a springboard must have fresh water. of."

Lin Liangjun said: "The clipper boats of the New Navy Army have been patrolling the open sea for ten days, and there are signs of Japanese pirates landing on this island."

He only saw signs of Japanese pirates placed on an island to the north of Dayuan Island, but Qi Jiguang said:

"I know this island. It is located in the north of Dayuan Island. It is called Shihaizi Island. Japanese pirates often use this island as a springboard to attack Fujian. However, this island can also attack Xinghua Prefecture and Zhangzhou Prefecture, and it may also cooperate with the Feilong Army. Let’s attack Chaozhou together, why are you sure you will attack Fuzhou?”

Lin Liangjun said, "Because of the wind direction."

"wind direction?"

"As far as we know, Hu Butang fought against the Japanese in Zhejiang last year and burned many warships of the Japanese pirates, so the Japanese pirates are very short of ships."

"This time, the Japanese pirates' fleet basically uses Japanese ships."

"The Japanese ships and the ships of Ming Dynasty are backward. They can only use fixed hard sails, and the hard sails can only sail with the wind. With the current wind direction, starting from Shihaizi Island, the final destination is Fuzhou Port!"

Qi Jiguang's face changed, and he said: "According to your information, are the Japanese pirates going to completely rob Fuzhou City this time?"

Lin Liangjun nodded and said: "That's true. This time the Japanese pirates mostly used Japanese boats. That is to say, they can't retreat before the monsoon changes. The Japanese pirates' plan is to capture Fuzhou Fucheng and use Fuzhou City as a base to plunder. Surrounding counties, wait until autumn before retreating."

Qi Jiguang stood up, looked at the model of Fuzhou City on the sand table, pondered for a moment and said:

"It's no wonder it's Fuzhou City. Only Fuzhou City is high, and Japanese pirates occupy here to guard until the monsoon changes!"

Qi Jiguang was convinced now, and said to Su Ze: "Mr. Su's temple is unparalleled!"

Su Ze shook his head and said, "This is not calculated by my temple, but by them."

"The staff team simulated the Ming Dynasty and the new Japanese respectively, and conducted weapon deduction twenty times, and finally decided that this is the most likely attack plan for the Japanese pirates."

"One more thing, I have asked Ryukyu merchants to spread the news on the sea, saying that silk worth 300,000 taels of silver has not been traded in the treasury of Shibosi in Fuzhou Prefecture. Yes, the target must be Fuzhou Prefecture!"

When Su Ze said this, Qi Jiguang believed in his judgment even more.

Qi Jiguang said: "Then I will secretly send troops to the north, ambush them outside the Fuzhou government, and give them a head-on blow when the Japanese invaders land!"

"No."

The trainees put the ship markers representing the Japanese pirates on the sand table, then put the markers of the Fujian Navy New Army, and finally put the markers of the Qi Family Army.

Su Ze said firmly: "I want to lead the navy to intercept and defeat the Japanese pirate fleet at sea! General Qi only needs to deploy defenses on the coast to intercept the Japanese pirates who fell into the water and landed!"

Qi Jiguang didn't expect Su Ze to speak so loudly. After he finished watching Lin Liangjun's sand table drill, he also said sincerely:

"I have finally seen the calculation method in "Sun Tzu's Art of War"! This war game deduction is really ingenious!"

Qi Jiguang studied wargame deduction until lunch time, and after eating with Su Ze, he reluctantly left Chuanshi Island.

After bidding farewell to Qi Jiguang, Su Ze came to the classroom again. At this time, several other sand tables were spliced ​​with the sand table of Fujian, which was a map of Zhejiang, Guangzhou, and Jiangxi.

However, these maps have not been surveyed and mapped, they are just simple models made by Su Ze based on the collected maps.

In the lecture hall, there are all the most trusted students of Su Ze. They are all the children of common people with innocent backgrounds, and they are also the students that Su Ze has been giving lectures in person.

Su Ze looked at Lin Liangjun's face and said:

"What about the results of the deduction after the Anti-Japanese War?"

Lin Liangjun said: "The new ships of the Navy's new army can sail even when the wind direction is not right. According to our plan, we will be able to control the coastal prefectures of Fuhai within a month."

"The Jiangxi government's army can't even stop the Feilong army, and the Guangdong defenders can only protect themselves. The only variable is the Zhejiang army."

"Hu Zongxian's prestige in the new army in Zhejiang is not low. If he takes over the new army in Taizhou immediately, he can immediately go south to Fujian."

Su Ze waved his hand and said, "Hu Zongxian is nothing to worry about, Yan Song is about to fall."

Su Ze's judgment is naturally not only based on [History], he has received information from Lu Er from the capital, and the day of Yan Song's downfall is getting closer.

With the fall of Yan Song, Hu Zongxian, who was training troops in Zhejiang, must be liquidated. Who let him have soldiers?

The same is true for Su Ze. Once the Japanese riots in Fujian are resolved, the strength of the new navy army that can defeat the Japanese pirates will inevitably be noticed by the capital. The imperial court will definitely not tolerate Su Ze continuing to control this new army.

The fate of Hu Zongxian and even Xu Wei in history all illustrate this judgment.

Su Ze stood up and said, "Once the Japanese rebellion is over, we will immediately start preparations to build a good momentum in Zhejiang and Fujian."

"From Zhu Wan to Zhang Jing, and then to Hu Zongxian, all the people who have presided over the anti-Japanese struggle have not come to a good end. This is the result of rampant traitors and sycophants in the court and constant party disputes."

"As the saying goes, 'the Son of Heaven has the way, the ritual and music conquests come from the emperor, the emperor has no way, and the ritual and music conquests come from the princes', since the emperor has no way, then the Fujian-Zhejiang mutual protection is to accumulate strength to deal with the treacherous party in the court!"

Su Ze's words were absolutely treasonous, but the students present said enthusiastically: "Students risk their lives, and they will not let the court do Qin Hui's affairs again!"
