"Your Majesty, I suggest that this time not only eliminate the pirates in the South China Sea, but also launch an attack on the Qing Dynasty immediately." Li Degong said at the imperial meeting. If it was just a naval operation in the upcoming large-scale operation, then their army would be too lost.

"Oh, do you have any action plan?" This was what Zhu Haitao had always wanted to do, so he asked.

"Your Majesty, you should have seen the map of the Qing Dynasty. This map is like a pair of crabapple leaves, while Hainan and TW are more like two branches of this crabapple leaves. If we cut these two branches off the crabapple leaves, we will be able to obtain two starting positions again." Li Degong said.

"Well, right, I think that after clearing the pirates and Hainan in the South China Sea, we can immediately march northward and at least occupy the entire south so that our country can fully develop. Our main enemies now are the Qing Dynasty and Britain. The Qing Dynasty is a mud-footed giant, and it is not worth worrying about, and Britain is the focus of our attention. Now I announce it!" Zhu Haitao finalized the direction for the Ming Dynasty to attack next.

Everyone was focused and prepared to listen to Zhu Haitao's orders.

"The next development direction of the Ming Dynasty is to attack the Qing Dynasty in the Northern Expedition, and at the same time stabilize the two wings and expand our retreat. To the south of our country is the place called Australia by the British. There is a whole continent, but the population is sparse, and the British have not regarded it as their colony for the time being, but I believe that they will attack there soon. We must occupy it as soon as possible." Zhu Haitao said.

Now, the British may not have realized how important Australia is, but Zhu Haitao believes that with their strategic vision, he will never miss the opportunity to make trouble behind his back. Therefore, it is definitely right to take action in advance.

"Yes! We obey the saint's order!" The ministers present stood up, lowered their heads and bowed.

Zhu Haitao issued an order, and the Army, Navy and the Cabinet began to make relevant combat plans and began to prepare.

The South China Sea, located in the south of Yanxia continent, is a sea area in the western Pacific Ocean, one of the three major marginal seas in Yanxia, ​​with a natural sea area of ​​about 3.5 million square kilometers. It spans about 2,000 kilometers from north to south and about 1,000 kilometers from east to west. It starts from Nan'ao Island in Guangdong Province and Eluanbi at the southern end of TW Island in the north, ends at Kalimantan Island and Sumatra Island in the south, and is connected to the Yanxia continent in the west, the Indochina Peninsula, the Malay Peninsula, and the Philippines in the east. It is connected to the Pacific Ocean through a strait or waterway. It is connected to the Indian Ocean in the west. It is a semi-closed sea in the northeast-southwest direction.

This sea area contains rich natural resources. Unfortunately, because later generations lacked the thinking of regulating the ocean and strong naval strength, these gangsters in the South China Sea occupied most of the islands and reefs in the South China Sea. In this world, Zhu Haitao has already eliminated those gangsters first, and their race has disappeared from the earth. In the future, this place will only become a bathtub for Chinese people.

However, there are still some ignorant guys who want to be a clown under Zhu Haitao's nose. They are some pirates in the South China Sea. Because the South China Sea is the key link between Yanxia and Western countries, the pirates' benefits are very great.

Since Zhu Haitao is determined to unify the entire Southeast Asia and Yanxia, ​​just like they issued many decrees to stop attacking the Ming Dynasty's merchant ships, they did not listen to advice at all. With their familiarity with the sea, they ran around the South China Sea, causing great losses to the Ming Dynasty's transportation industry.

On a small island deep in the South China Sea, a group of pirates are discussing what to do next.

"Do you think this person surnamed Zhu is looking for death? He is powerful, so we respect him as the general, but our world will always act, and the water of the well will not violate the rivers. But where does he have the courage to come from? We will snatch the merchant ships of Mingguo from now on! Let's see what he is doing!" Liu Tiaoer said to the pirates.

"Yes, the boss! Let's take the ships of Mingguo! Their ships are much richer than those of other countries!" said Han Fu, deputy leader.

"We should teach this surname Zhu some lesson! Just grab their ship!"

"Yes! The boss, we should rob their ship!" The people below responded in groups.

But there was still a little pirate leader who was a little worried and said, "Big Master, the Ming Navy recently launched an encirclement and suppression operation on us in the South China Sea. They attacked one island and one island and reef, and they had destroyed several of them. If we were so arrogant, wouldn't it be dangerous?"

"What do you guys know? That's because they are all too incompetent! The Sea Dragon King and Mazu don't look at them. We have the blessing of the gods, so how can we be caught by the Zhu? Even if we are not good, we will be discovered, will we surrender? The Zhu first was a pirate, and can we kill us all?" Liu Tiaoer shouted.

"But the boss, this time the Ming army is so cruel. Whenever they come to the island to see people like us, they will shoot guns and cannons! They will not give us a chance to surrender!"

"Which side are you? Get out of the labor industry!" Liu Tiaoer cursed.

The man dared not speak anymore, so he could only let Liu Tiaoer lead everyone to go crazy.

"This Zhu was a pirate at the beginning. Now he can reach such a big position. Why can't we do it? Isn't their Ming Navy coming? Let's let them come without going back! Then we will build a country, and labor and capital will also be emperors to play!" Liu Tiaoer was already a little confused while drinking.

"Yes! His surname is Zhu, who can succeed, why can't we do it?" Han Fu also said.

From then on, this group of pirates specially used the Ming Dynasty merchant ships as the target of robbery. They not only wanted the gold, silver and treasures in the ship, but also wanted to kill all the men on the ship. If there were women, they would snatch them up.

"Bang!" Seeing the latest military newspaper, the Minister of the Navy Xue Dingyue was very angry.

"This person named Liu Tiaoer is really too much! Other pirates will be able to do it as long as gold, silver and treasures. They are so cruel and they will kill everyone. We should attack them fiercely!" Xue Dingyue said. He had decided that he must completely eliminate the pirate.

Soon, a combat plan was presented to Xue Dingyue's desk. He thought it was very good, so he decided to do it according to this plan.
