At this moment, the officials listened to Zhu Houzhao's nonsense.

I heard that I was going to Tianjin Weiguanwu, so I ...... One by one, the bitter gourd face was revealed.

When it was freezing on this day, I went to watch the martial arts, wasn't this full of food and support?

A group of hiundane, what's there to see.

But now, they find that they no longer have the right to choose.

On the cusp of this storm, you have to show your ability to lift the bar, which is almost equivalent to looking for death.

Emperor Hongzhi said a word, and since it was decided, everyone had to say to His Majesty Shengming.

This made Fang Jifan touch his nose.

I feel that these damn ministers are suspected of stealing their jobs.

When it comes to slapping horses, Fang Jifan is actually very self-aware, he may be better than Xiao Jing, the old guy, but the Wenchen of the Ming Dynasty, which one is not one in a million, at the beginning, they couldn't let go of their figures, and they wanted to maintain a little so-called backbone, so their talents have not been thoroughly explored.

But once the jar is broken, it's really shameless......

Fang Jifan feels that the competition in the future will be great.

In the future, it is better to practice diligently.

Emperor Hongzhi was worried that Zhu Houzhao would come all the way, although this guy still looked interested, the father and son had not seen each other for many days, and there were many things to say, but he still sent Zhu Houzhao to rest.

Zhu Houzhao said goodbye beautifully, pulled Fang Jifan and went out, Xiao Jing had already arranged a mansion for Zhu Houzhao, Zhu Houzhao pulled Fang Jifan, seemed to have something to say, and when he entered the mansion, there was no one left and right, so he excitedly put his hands behind his back: "This firearm is very interesting, you are very interesting." ”

Fang Jifan was so excited to see him, but he could be considerate, after all, ...... Although Zhu Houzhao has a wide range of hobbies, he has remained consistent for so many years, and it is still his military.

Fang Jifan said with a smile: "My method of training soldiers and foot drills, I don't know how His Highness practiced. ”

"It's very effective." Zhu Houzhao said: "It's just so interesting, Chang Pingwei has a look now, and he has been able to do the same order, your method is very interesting...... But ......"

Zhu Houzhao paused, he looked at Fang Jifan: "There is a big thing I want to tell you, but I don't want to tell you." ”

Fang Jifan: "......"

Zhu Houzhao sighed: "Do you know why this palace wants to go to Tianjin Wei?" ”

Fang Jifan said: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wants His Majesty to see the power of the new army. ”

Zhu Houzhao shook his head: "If you want to see, isn't it possible in Changping?" Lao Fang, have you been suffering from brain disease recently, and you are getting more and more confused. ”

Fang Jifan suddenly had a bad premonition: "Your Highness, don't scare me. ”

Zhu Houzhao patted him on the shoulder: "You can choose not to listen." ”

Fang Jifan's face was cloudy, and finally gritted his teeth: "Listen, Your Highness, you can say it." ”

"Then I said, you sit tight, and don't drink tea at this time, lest you choke." Zhu Houzhao held his chin, he cared about Fang Jifan very much.

Fang Jifan subconsciously pulled his hand back, but found that his back head was empty.

He was nervous and wanted to pull the safety belt.

It's just a pity that in this era, there are no seat belts.

Zhu Houzhao immediately took out a piece of letterhead from his sleeve: "Look at it yourself." ”

Fang Jifan opened the letterhead, and at a glance, all of a sudden, everything understood.

This is a secret message sent from overseas, through the hands of the Four Oceans Trading House.

And the man who wrote this epistle ...... It's Wang Xizuo.

The king made this dog thing, and he was still alive.

In the letter, Wang Xizuo said that after he went to sea, he quickly gained the trust of the Spaniards, and he even returned to Franco, where he met with the Spanish king in Madrid.

The king of Spain, apparently pleased with him, rewarded him with a bag of gold, and not only that, but also intended to canonize him.

Of course, Wang Xizuo doesn't look down on these at all.

He has long been sinicized.

So far, he has been absent from Francois all the time, missing the food in Beijing, missing his mansion of more than ten acres of land, and thinking about whether the mortgage that Qi Guogong promised him to pay back for him will be honored.

He spread the fragile remarks of the Ming Dynasty again and again.

The Spaniards had attacked Xinjin, and the Battle of Xinjin was successful, which made the Spaniards realize that the Ming was more like a giant with feet of clay.

Of course, the destruction of several ships, under the encouragement of Wang Xizuo again and again, also made the Spaniards relax their vigilance, and they believed that this small fleet should have encountered a storm.

One way or another.

The Spaniards swelled.

They swell for a reason, after all, their ships are all over the world, their armies are invincible all over the world, and they don't take any non-Francois in their eyes.

In view of the increasing number of Han Chinese on the American continent, there is a huge competitive pressure.

In the Kingdom of Spain, an expedition had been planned since the beginning of last year.

Their battle plan was very simple.

Wang Xizuo as a guide.

Through the Church, the Portuguese mediated in the hope of receiving the necessary assistance.

The Portuguese have long been worried about the expansion of the Ming Dynasty in the West, and they are happy to see it.

Then, it will be a fleet that will quickly pass through the Western Ocean, taking advantage of their fast ships, carrying more than 2,000 soldiers, to arrive at Tianjin.

Wang Xizuo told them that Tianjin was only a hundred miles away from the capital of the Ming Dynasty, and as long as they broke through the Tianjin Guard, they could quickly kill the imperial city of the Ming Dynasty, and then, in one fell swoop, the entire Ming Dynasty would be subjugated to the great Spanish kingdom.

God knows what medicine the Spaniards took wrong, actually ...... And they believed.

As a result, a huge fleet has long been on the way.

This secret letter was encrypted by special means, and then sent to the Portuguese colony of Luzon, and then sent to Beijing through the Four Oceans Trading House.

And the reason why Fang Jifan didn't receive this letter should be that he came to Changping by himself, and Liu Jin's dog thing made people hurry up and send it to Zhu Houzhao with a clear address first.

Fang Jifan gasped: "Your Highness, this letter was sent half a year ago, and at the same time as it was issued, the Spanish fleet had already roughly set off, that is to say...... Most likely, they ...... Have you followed the currents and are about to reach the East? ”

"Exactly." Zhu Houzhao said: "It is very likely that they have already passed Jiaozhi, and even, they have passed Jiaozhi, if it is faster, these days, to Tianjin Wei, it is not necessarily, they should be in the place of the Portuguese, for supplies, and now they are going to attack Tianjin Wei in one go, and then, attack my Ming Jingshi." ”

Zhu Houzhao couldn't help baring his teeth: "Are these people crazy, there are only more than 2,000 people, and they dare to land and fight against my Daming, but my Daming has a million." ”

Fang Jifan glanced at Zhu Houzhao deeply: "The soldiers are not expensive, this point, the Spaniards have been fighting for nearly a hundred years, and they understand this truth very well. What's more, although my Ming Dynasty has a million armor, but in the Gyeonggi area, the real available soldiers and horses are only 70,000 or 80,000 people, Your Royal Highness the Prince, do you know that the Spaniards have been fighting all over the world over the years, and they have often used hundreds of people, or thousands, to defeat tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of troops? The Spaniards have always given the impression that their ships are powerful, but in fact...... No, they can be a small country, and the world depends on their infantry, it is because their infantry is always one as ten, under the encouragement of Wang Xizuo, they have such confidence, thinking that two thousand men are enough to expedition to the Ming Dynasty. ”

After listening to this, Zhu Houzhao remembered that he knew from some of the captives of the Francois that the Kingdom of Spain and Portugal had indeed defeated tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of troops in the Western Ocean and the Golden Continent.

In the eyes of the Spaniards, the Ming Dynasty was only a little stronger than the Manraka and Indians.

What's more, this is a surprise attack, and there is an excellent guide who knows the situation of Daming very well.

Belch......

Wang Xizuo...... What a man of God.

Groove ...... This can be fooled.

Fang Jifan looked at this secret report and couldn't laugh or cry.

"I have Wang Xiaozuo, which can be worth a hundred sets of houses, I think about it, this time he has made a great contribution, and I will reward him with thirty acres of land." Fang Jifan couldn't help but say, "But Your Highness...... What exactly are you going to do? ”

"Simple." Zhu Houzhao said: "Hide it from my father first, you know this secret report, I know, if a third person knows, Lao Fang, you will harm me, you must not betray your brother." ”

Fang Jifan was like eating a fly: "......"

"Let my father go to Tianjin Wei first, and when the time is ripe, I will report to my father secretly. Tianjin Wei has a great stake, and there is no room for failure, but you also know it. If the father emperor is not in Tianjin, he will definitely not display the heavy troops in this Tianjinwei gate, and the hundred officials will definitely shrink all their troops in order not to allow mistakes, and they will wait for work at ease, and want to fight a decisive battle with the Francosis in Beijing. Tianjin Wei now has so many docks, and a steam engine ship is being built, but this steam engine ship has not been manufactured, and even the second one will not be launched until March next year. ”

Zhu Houzhao said: "Therefore, we must be in Tianjin Wei, in one fell swoop, these thieves who landed on the shore, all of them are taken down, none of them are allowed to go, the palace needs to have enough troops to cut off all their back roads, only the father is there, and there are tens of thousands of Xiaocai and Jinwuwei officers and soldiers, which is enough to wipe out these damn Fran machine people in a short period of time." Do you know what Hongu means? ”

Fang Jifan understood.

What Zhu Houzhao asked for was not the absolute safety of the Jingshi, but to let this group of friends who came from afar be defeated in the shortest possible time, and no one would be left.

What he wants is that once he wins, there will be no room for mistakes.

But...... Your Majesty, how innocent, being fooled by you all day long?

Zhu Houzhao looked at Fang Jifan seriously: "Old Fang, you have to believe in this palace, this palace has been waiting for this day for too long, too long!" ”
