On the stormy blue sea, on the masts of hundreds of warships of various types, large and large warships, dragon flags and sun and moon flags fluttered in the wind, the whistling sea breeze filled the sails, and the oak bottom pushed the waves away quickly, swam quickly in the water waves.

Liu Er, Zhang Youde, Wang Qiu, and Liu Guoxuan stood on the deck of the newly built ship Xuanwu, looking at the blue sea waves. This is the Beibu Gulf, the junction between eastern Annan and southern Guangxi. The Eastern and Southern Ocean Navy Camp was one, and most of the army stationed in Java and Haidu arrived here after half a month of sailing. Their target was to attack the abdomen of Guangxi and surround Wei to save Zhao.

The Xuanwu hull is extremely large and its speed is no less than that of other warships. Important parts of the hull are wrapped in copper skin, and their armor abilities are stronger than those of other warships. However, the Xuanwu was designated as a dragon boat by the emperor, and it was a ship that the emperor issued to the four seas. Therefore, the entire ship was removed from long-range weapons such as artillery, and the entire ship was more like a tower ship, with a three-story cabin standing on the hull for royal use.

Now that the emperor is going to sea in person, hundreds of warships protect the Xuanwu group, galloping in the sea like an aircraft carrier.

Dongdongdongdongdong... A little eunuch walked out of the cabin, walked to the deck, and clasped his throat and said, "Sir, the emperor has gotten up, and I will entrust you to enter the cabin to meet you."

The four commanders smoothed their wrinkled armor and followed the little eunuch in deference toward the cabin.

"Long live my emperor!" In the grandly decorated cabin, the four walls were covered with light gauze covering the underground palace lanterns. The floor was covered with bright red blankets, and four commanders lined up in a row. They saluted their hands.

Zhu Jun was still washing with a toothbrush in gold. After wiping his face, he sat back on the chair on his head: "No gift, it was a strong wind last night, and the hull was shaking. I didn't sleep well all night, hey, my dear friends must be the same."

Liu Guoxuan replied with a smile: "I will grow up in the sea, but I sleep soundly. I believe that Master Liu Er is the same. I only have to work hard for the Emperor, Lord Zhang and Lord Wang."

Wang Qiu squeezed his eyes. The bloody scar on his face twitched in horror, and sighed: "To be honest with the emperor, I will be a land duck, and this bitterness is enough

Zhu Jun smiled and said, "Sit down, Liu Er, how far is this place from the coast of Guangxi?"

Four commanders sat sideways on both sides of the cabin. Liu Er replied: "You can arrive and log in tomorrow."

Zhu Jun said: "That's good. When our army lands, Liu Guoxuan will lead the Oriental Navy to return south and attack the Dutch in the remnant Luzon. At that time, the Oriental Navy's headquarters will be in Luzon. I have already negotiated with the Spaniards. Luzon is divided into two divisions. The north is under the jurisdiction of the Java province of the Ming Dynasty. The Oriental Navy camp is stationed here. Here is Japan, Taiwan, Japan, Hainan, Guangdong, and Java in the east. It can not only consolidate Guangxi, but also seize Hainan in the next step. It can also shock Guangdong. The monk Geng Jingzhong in Taiwan is very happy. It is an excellent military fortress. I have issued an order to make all the divisions ready for the takeover. Liu Aiqing. Don't let me down."

Liu Guoxuan quickly agreed, "I dare not do my best."

The four commanders on the field were originally born in a low position. The best life experience was Zhang Youde, but he was a hereditary commander. Liu Er was a helm leader. Wang Qiu was promoted to the army. Liu Guoxuan was just an intermediate officer in the Jinxia Navy. Now all four of them have a prominent status and are in power. If Zhu Jun had not yet shined, how could these people be today? It would be strange if Liu Guoxuan didn't do his best.

Zhu Jun's eyes fell on the other three: "After the army landed in Guangxi, Wang Qiu took the death camp as the vanguard. Zhang Youde and I took charge of the central army. Liu Er led the Nanyang Naval Camp to the coast of Guangdong. Remember, do not launch any attack. Just the fleet needs to travel around the coastline to provoke. I only need the naval camp to intimidate Guangdong. Shang Kexi dare not enter Guangxi to easily rush to help."

"I will obey the order!" The three of them left their seats and agreed with each other.

Zhu Jun's eyes sank: "Our army's primary task is to take advantage of the emptiness of Guangxi to attack its homes and backs. This surprise attack should be fast and there should be no drag. Once the Dingbei Army captures Sichuan and our army captures Guangxi, the backyard of the Qing soldiers besieging Kunming catches fire, and they will be in chaos."

The four nodded. Surrounding Wei and rescuing Zhao was indeed much more worthwhile than directly rushing to Yunnan to help. Once the Qing army discovered that Guangxi was captured, the news reached the city of Kunming. Most of the Qing army's family affairs were in the Guangxi area, so the morale of the army must have been shaken and collapsed without fighting.

Zhu Jun changed into a relaxed expression and greeted the four of them, "My breakfast is coming, so you can stay here, and eat here with me, and we will be able to keep our energy well today."

At this time, the sound of thunder from the deck came in. A little eunuch carefully lifted his robe and reported, "Emperor, a small boat has arrived along the coast, claiming to be an official from Hue Province of Annan. I request to see Your Majesty."

Zhu Jun looked around and asked, "Where is the water area in Annan?"

Liu Er replied: "It was the Annan officials in the waters of Hue Province who received the news that the navy came from the west and came to see him specially.

Zhu Junhe nodded: "Since you are here, let him come in."

After about a cup of tea, a black-faced Vietnamese man wearing the style of a Ming Dynasty official uniform walked in, bowed respectfully to Zhu Jun, and said in Chinese with a Guangxi accent: "Long live the Emperor of Ming Dynasty, long live the Emperor, and the empress, Li Wenjing, the governor of Hue Province of Annan Province, bowed three times and bowed again."

Zhu Jundao said that among the vassal states of the Ming Dynasty, North Korea and Annan can be said to be the vassal states with the highest sinicization rate. Not only did their names use Chinese language, clothing, customs, and even official languages ​​and characters were deeply influenced by Han culture. For example, although North Korea created its own characters in the 14th century, their official common language was completely replaced by Chinese and Chinese characters. Whether Chinese characters could be written was the boundary between intellectuals and ordinary people. All nobles and scholars must be familiar with Chinese characters if they want to be officials.

Li Wenjing stood up, congratulated a few more words, and then got to the point: "His Majesty the Emperor, Annan is a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty. Is the Ming Navy coming to Beibu Gulf this time to attack the hinterland of Guangxi?"

Zhu Jun said undeniably that it is inevitable that he is wary of this governor of unknown origin.

Li Wenjing said again: "Your Majesty, this trip is for His Highness the King to volunteer to go out for war. The king's army is north and Annan is adjacent to Guangxi. Although there are not many soldiers in the country, it can also help the king's army."

Li Wenjing's purpose is very simple, and he hopes that Annan can get a share of the Ming army. The successive victory of the Ming army has made Annan feel that he has taken the right treasure. The mentality of the snake and rat at the beginning suddenly became a loyal vassal state of the Ming Dynasty. In fact, although the name of Annan is a country today, the country has been divided. South Vietnam and North Vietnam are ruled by the Li Dynasty and Mo Dynasty respectively. Hue Province is the border area where the Later Li Dynasty and Mo Dynasty confront each other. Li Wenjing is the royal family of the Li Dynasty.

He was the governor of Hue Province. This time the Ming army launched a large-scale raid on Guangxi, and he immediately saw the benefits of this move to the Li Dynasty in South Vietnam. Once the Ming army occupied Guangxi, it would be able to immediately connect with the land in Yunnan. The Li Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty competed with each other. If it could march into Guangxi under the name of helping the Ming army to fight the Northern Expedition, at that time, as long as the Ming army raised its hands and headed south, the Li Dynasty in South Vietnam could advance northward in large numbers. Under the attacks from front and back, it would only be a matter of time before and after the demise of Mo Chao.

Unifying Annan is the dream of the rulers of the Li Dynasty for a hundred years. Li Wenjing immediately felt that this dream that was within reach would be realized in his own hands and immediately became excited. He kept asking about the news about the Ming army naval forces. When the Ming army naval forces arrived in the Hue waters, they immediately brought a few followers to meet.

Zhu Jun was confused by the help he came to his door. Of course he knew the essence of these fence-bearing soldiers. If it weren't for the powerful navy of the Ming Dynasty, Annan Kingdom would have long been surrendered to the Manchus. How could he suddenly be willing to cooperate with his army?

After weighing the pros and cons, Zhu Jun shook his head. No matter what small thoughts Annan is hidden, he did not need to send troops. First, Guangxi was originally empty, and the Ming army was numerous and powerful, so he did not need the assistance of allies. Second, the military discipline of feudal troops like Annan was obviously not very good. By then, burning, killing, looting and losing the hearts of the Ming people.

"I have a king's army to fight in the north, and there are thousands of Ming soldiers who have succeeded one after another. I have appreciated the kindness of Annan Kingdom. You go and inform your king and tell him that you just need to watch from the wall and see how I can recover.

Li Wenjing didn't know that the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty would be so ungrateful. Seeing Zhu Jun refused, he couldn't help but feel anxious. You don't accept helping you to fight the Ming army in the northern expedition. Is there any reason for this? He was very sure, but he didn't expect to meet Zhu Jun, who was so naughty and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, this is our king's filial piety to Your Majesty. Please be sure to accept it."

Zhu Jun waved his hand: "Everyone swept the snow in front of the door, there is no need for the king to cry. What's the matter? You are not happy to send your soldiers to help you fight. There is no way. Li Wenjing knelt on the carpet with a thud, and his eyes were blurred: "I beg your Majesty to not let down the filial piety of his ministers. All over the world, is it the land of the Ming Dynasty, and the shores of the land, is it the minister of His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and Annan obeys the king's transformation, so it can be seen that the sun and the moon. My king lives in a corner, but he is also the minister of His Majesty. It is necessary for his ministers to serve the king. If the Emperor does not agree, the ministers will kneel down forever."

The four commanders sitting on both sides suddenly became confused. What was going on? Even after searching through ancient books and history, there was no such touching scene. A vassal minister was so angry that he wanted to help the emperor conquer. The emperor was not allowed. The vassal minister cried and shouted and couldn't kneel down. What a mess.
