Chapter 743: Admiral of the Nanyang Navy Division (2/3 for Alliance Leader Li Peiyun)

Really...... As early as on the way to Horo Island, Liu Hongjian always felt that there must be something wrong within the Zheng family.

Otherwise, it is impossible to explain why the Spaniards can always find the weak points of the Zheng family's defense, and why they have been attacking for three days in succession, as if they have learned the news of the Zheng family's gunpowder approaching in advance.

"I know, this man will die." Liu Hong gradually wrote down the name of this person.

He hates traitors the most in his life, and these bitches raise them to kill one by one, and there is no room for negotiation.

"If the negotiation goes well, when I go back, I plan to go to the imperial court for my brother and form a Nanyang Naval Division." Liu Hongjian said as he walked back.

"The eldest brother is well aware of the benefits of coastal defense, and it is really lucky that the imperial court has the eldest brother here." Zheng Sen's words are not compliments, but heartfelt words.

There are tens of millions of people in the entire Ming Dynasty, and there are a few people who are more familiar with maritime trade than the Zheng family, and Liu Hongjian is one of them, and in many points of view, Zheng Sen's eyes can shine.

If you want to make money in the ocean, the strength of the sailor is the top priority, without a strong fleet, everything is vain, Zheng Sen and even this.

"Hehe, it's not just my brother who knows the maritime affairs, and I want to recommend you as the commander of the Nanyang Navy for my brother." Liu Hong chuckled and said.

"Big brother, how can I take on such a heavy responsibility, and the Zheng family is newly attached, how dare Your Majesty be so trusted, absolutely not, absolutely not." Zheng Sen was shocked when he heard this, and shook his head while refusing.

"Da Mu doesn't need to excuse himself, you don't know, today's court is no longer the court you think, although Your Majesty is four or five years younger than you and me.

But in terms of maritime knowledge, it is no longer comparable to the corrupt Confucianism in the DPRK and China, as for the faith, there is a brother, and His Majesty will agree. Liu Hong gradually said again.

Whether it is Lao Zhu or Xiao Zhu, it is not so much that they can open their eyes to the world, but that the two of them have seen the great profits of the ocean.

To put it bluntly, the two poorest emperors of the Ming Dynasty were money fans.

In particular, Zhu Cihong, a kid, since he knew that the revenue from tariffs in just half a year exceeded the sum of all other fiscal revenues, but wherever there is maritime affairs, there is no inaccuracy or approval.

As for the Cabinet? Hehe, Zhu Cihong has now learned to return to his original position in the cabinet.

The so-called scholars, the emperor's advisers, what is an advisor, that is, when the emperor has something he doesn't understand, or any emotional problem, oh no, it's a matter of government affairs, he can consult him.

As for making decisions and making wills, it is the emperor who has the final say.

The two now cooperate tacitly, and one outside and one inside is Daming's compass.

"This ...... Big brother, I'm still too young, Daming has so many veterans with seniority, I ......"

"My brother is only a few months younger than you, what is the excuse of my mother-in-law? That's it! Liu Hong gradually saw that Zheng Sen was still worried, and said unhappily.

Liu Hongjian has been thinking about the matter of the Nanyang Naval Division, since he took back Taiwan and left Qin Zuoming to build a large port in Taiwan, it was for the Nanyang Naval Division.

Needless to say, Taiwan's military position is as long as the Nanyang Naval Division is formed, it will be able to choke the throat of the Nanyang Naval Division to the north, such as the Ming Dynasty and Japan, and complement each other with the Beiyang Naval Division, one south and one north, and defend the coastal defense security of the Ming Dynasty.

As for Zheng Sen's ability, needless to say, Liu Hong is gradually a hundred assured.

Sending his brother to Taiwan can be regarded as fulfilling Zheng Sen, after all, according to the evaluation of later generations, Zheng Sen was almost born for Taiwan, which is his fate.

It was late at night after the two returned to the barracks, the sky was full of stars, except for the soldiers on duty, only Qi Yuangong's big tent was still lit, there was no doubt that the hardest thing for the Beiyang Navy Division was the deputy admiral Qi Yuangong.

And the one who is the best at throwing his hands and being the shopkeeper, Liu Hong gradually affirmed that he was in charge of the Ming Niuer.

There is no need to worry about a surprise attack by a fleet at night, in fact, the battleships at this time are simply unable to cope with the night battle, most of the generals have drunk a lot of wine, and the barracks are full of snoring.

It's really seven or eight stars away, in front of the rain mountain at two or three o'clock, by the military camp on Holo Island, listening to the sound of snoring.

At noon the next day, Zheng Sen came to see Liu Hongji, and as Liu Hongjian expected, Zheng Sen persuaded the soldiers of the Zheng family, and they all agreed to leave this place sprinkled with the blood of the Zheng family.

Although I don't know what Zheng Sen said to these people, this is a good start.

Without Zheng Sen's help, he, as an outsider, might be able to rely on his status to force down the Zheng family's soldiers, but he could not convince the rest of the Han people on the island.

There are more than 24,000 soldiers left in the Zheng family on Horo Island, and more than 40,000 Han people, a total of 60,000 people, not counting the Han people left behind on other islands that have been taken away by the Franco.

If you just rely on the ability of the Beiyang Naval Division to transport troops, it is simply not enough to transport back so many people at one time.

But with the Zheng family's warships, it was different, although nearly half of the Zheng family's warships were either sunk or confiscated along with Lao Zheng in the Battle of Dongning.

And the losses were all the best warships of the Zheng family.

But the numbers that Zheng Sen reported to Liu Hong gradually really made Liu Hong eat a whale.

"The Zheng family now has more than 1,800 boats of all kinds, and if some of the equipment on the ship is removed and transported with all its might, it will not be a problem to transport 100,000 people." Zheng Sen is very clear about his family's industry.

"Are there so many?"

Liu Hongjian really wanted to shout at this time.

"Well, a considerable number of ships are merchant ships carrying goods, and there are only more than 600 warships, and most of them are small warships." Zheng Sen told the truth.

At its peak, the Zheng family had more than 3,000 warships and merchant ships of all kinds, but now it is no longer what it used to be.

Liu Hongjian calculated that on the side of the Beiyang Naval Division, the battleships must not be used to transport people, and the Beiyang Naval Division must protect the safety of the troop carriers, but the dozen or so troop carriers can come in handy.

The matter of retreat was discussed, and in the afternoon, the big and small Francos finally agreed to the peace talks.

Liu Hongjian was not surprised by this, because he raised a question that the two countries could not refuse.

However, the two countries did not believe Liu Hongji's verbal promise, but agreed that tomorrow morning, each of the three countries would send people to Siso Island to sign the agreement.

In this regard, Liu Hong gradually smiled and said nothing, sand sculpture, if the contract can be counted, where will there be so many times in World War I and World War II to tear up the contract and directly fight.

Sisso Island is located in the middle of Holo Island, where the Beiyang Naval Division is located, Sibu Island, where the Great Franc Fleet is located, and Tawi Island, where the Little Franc Aircraft is located, and the three parties agreed that they can only go to the negotiations on small merchant ships, and they are not allowed to carry firearms, otherwise the negotiations will be canceled immediately.

At the juncture, Qi Yuangong and other generals of the Beiyang Navy Division did not object much, after all, Liu Hongji's ability had been spread all over the Beiyang Navy Division through He Bin's mouth.

It's just that Zheng Sen heard that his brother was going to negotiate with Franco, or only on one boat, he immediately objected, and then Liu Hong gradually pulled Zheng Sen to show up.

The next morning, Liu Hong gradually gathered thirty guards and rushed to Sisang Island on a reinforced armed merchant ship arranged by Zheng Sen himself.
