Xia Nan continued: "Since land warfare is not feasible, there is only one way left to fight in the water. Although the vast sea looking for the red-haired fleet is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack, it is not as evil as the senior deputy chief soldier said.www.biquge.info The red hairs have declared war on the Ming Dynasty, and for the sake of trade rights, they will never give up this war lightly, so it is not difficult to find a place to hide - first, they must not be too far away from the center and left, so that they can attack at any time; Second, there must be adequate water and food supplements. There are not many people who have these two requirements at the same time, and there are only a few islands such as Kinmen and Penghu, as long as you send people to search carefully, you will definitely be able to find their clues. In fact, these analyses were put forward by Murong Longcheng at the staff meeting and borrowed by Xia Nan.

This analysis was reasonable and well-founded, and even Gao Yingyue, who advocated land warfare, could not think of a reason to refute it.

Zheng Zhilong clapped his hands and applauded: "General Xia Shen is very reasonable, as long as you stare at these places, I don't believe that I can't find them." ”

Zou Weilian also nodded again and again: "Yes, with the vision and mind of General Xia Shen, plus Zheng Guerrilla's sailor as the vanguard, and all the soldiers here use their lives, Ben Fu doesn't believe that the red hair has three heads and six arms, and this battle will be won!" ”

Zhang Yongchan and other generals shouted together: "The Ming Dynasty will win!" For a while, the atmosphere was warm, and there was a bit of ambition not to break Loulan's vow.

At this time, a guard soldier came to Xia Nan's side and whispered a message. Nan's eyes lit up in the summer, the inertia of history was really strong, even with their own mixing, the choice of the Dutch was exactly the same as the original history.

He stood up and said loudly: "Congratulations to Futai, Xiaguan just got a big piece of good news!" ”

The shouting stopped abruptly, and everyone's eyes looked at Xia Nan.

Zou Weilian was puzzled: "At this moment, what is better news than defeating the red hair?" ”

Xia Nan smiled slightly: "With this news, it's not far from defeating the red hair." Xia Guan just learned that the main fleet of Hongmao and Liu Xiang is anchored in Liuluo Bay in Kinmen at the moment! ”

Zou Weilian was pleasantly surprised when he heard this, Zheng Zhilong stood up with a "whew" and asked, "Is the news true?" How did you get this information? ”

Xia Nan's smile remained unchanged: "Zheng Guerrilla, don't ask how the intelligence came from, everyone has their own way, you should understand." If you don't believe it, you can send a spy to Kinmen to check it out. ”

Zou Weilian immediately decided: "The matter is very important, for the sake of prudence, Zheng Guerrilla sent someone to verify." Do this sooner rather than later, so as not to delay the fighter! ”

Zheng Zhilong clasped his fists and saluted: "Obey." The subordinate will go and dispatch people. "But in my heart, I thought that if this news is true, then it will be very beneficial to myself. The naval battle of the Zheng family was dominated by fireship tactics and gangsters, and the relatively closed harbor as a battlefield was naturally much stronger than the vast sea, and the advantages of the red-haired fleet's strong mobility and firepower were discounted, while the fireship tactics could be brought into full play. Unexpectedly, after he transferred Kinmen's fleet back to the Zhongzuo Institute, the red hair played a dark game, and he had to find a way to find traces of the enemy everywhere, but the other party was hiding under his nose.

Xia Nan did not continue to sit in the government office and listen to the noise of the generals, quietly got up and left, and came to the temporary station.

When Wang Qinian and Liang Dong saw Xia Nan, they both knelt down and said, "General, my subordinates are fortunate to live up to their mission." "They worked hard all night, and finally succeeded in crossing the strait, arrived at the Zhongzuo Station, and inquired all the way about the location of the Qiongzhou battalion of the guest army, and found the place at noon, and the soldiers who got the news did not dare to slack off, and reported to Xia Nan as soon as possible.

Xia Nan hurriedly went to help: "Hurry up, you have made a great contribution this time, and I will reward you well when you return to Lingao." ”

Liang Dong smiled, it seems that this bet is right, he should be able to wash off the stain of pirates and live a good life, and it is not in vain that he and Wang Qinian tossed and turned on the dark sea for a night.

Wang Qinian's face couldn't hide the tiredness, he smuggled in the middle of the night, and he was scared, so he finally found the organization and yawned a few times.

Seeing this, Xia Nan said: "You must be tired and hungry when you escape in a small boat, I will have someone bring you some food, and rest well after you are full." ”

Wang Qinian said: "My body is tired, but my heart is happy." The subordinate still has an idea, I don't know if it's feasible. ”

With such dedicated subordinates, Xia Nan was naturally happy, "Well, you said." ”

"If there is no accident, the army on the Fujian side will pour out, and the red hair will be caught off guard, and there is a great possibility of defeat. When Hongmao is defeated, Zheng Zhilong will inevitably be the largest sea lord in the entire Fujian, and the general's direct opponent will be Zheng Zhilong. The Zheng family is more difficult to deal with than the red hair, and the subordinates want to find an opportunity to infiltrate the Zheng family to continue to be undercover agents and pass on news to the general, which can be regarded as a rainy day. ”

After listening to Wang Qinian's words, Xia Nandu was a little moved, where can he find a subordinate who can bear hardships and stand hard work and regard undercover as his life's work?

He reassured: "This matter is feasible, but how to get into the Zheng family?" ”

Liang Dong was in a state of excitement, and his brain was better than usual, so he immediately thought of a way and said excitedly: "This is not difficult. In these years, naval battles all relied on gangsters, and the emphasis was on how many people were good at doing things. No matter which sea is the main one before making a big deal, you have to recruit troops and buy horses, whether it is a ruffian or a scoundrel, anyway, you can use a knife and cut people. As long as we deliberately approach the Zheng family's ship, there will always be a chance to get in. ”

Xia Nan asked suspiciously: "Aren't they afraid of infiltrating spies by recruiting people like this?" ”

"This is an open secret, everyone knows that it is possible to get into spies, but these people are the lowest cannon fodder, and they all take human lives to fill in the war, most of these people will die at sea, even spies can't access the core secrets, so these sea lords don't care."

"Aren't you dangerous, then?" Although Xia Nan also wanted to install eyeliner in the Zheng family, the spies sent were sacrificed as cannon fodder, which was really not cost-effective.

Liang Dong said nonchalantly: "Don't be afraid." I've been at sea for more than ten years, and it's all about being cautious to survive today. Those dead guys all want to fight for a future with their lives, and become leaders with heads and faces, and they don't have to be cannon fodder anymore. I don't have to take this road again, the future is all in the hands of the general, and when the time comes, just shout a few times and hide behind, at most I will be scolded a few words for being greedy for life and afraid of death. ”

Xia Nan was relieved, but when he saw Wang Qinian, who was thin, he became worried again: "You are so mixed in, but what about Wang Qinian?" He doesn't look like he's able to go out to sea and cut people. ”

Wang Qinian's face rarely squeezed out a smile, and replied: "Snakes have snake paths, rats have rat paths, Liang Dong has his methods, and I also have my methods, please rest assured general." ”
