Vol 2 Chapter 1780 The situation has changed drastically

  Chapter 1780 The situation has changed drastically

  Of course, it’s just a loan, and it’s just a trivial matter.

   As for not paying it back in the future, it was borrowed based on my ability. I want to come…

Fang Jifan glanced at the faces of several apprentices, and finally fixed his eyes on Liu Wenshan, thinking slightly: “I will leave this matter to you, by the way, there is one thing I forgot to tell you, not long ago , The Spanish Armada defeated the Ottoman Navy, but unfortunately, this Armada, as well as the Portuguese Navy, were destroyed by our Daming Navy. Liu Wenshan, Liu Wenshan, said that you can raise soldiers for a thousand days and use them for a while. After so many years, it’s time for you to share your worries for the teacher!”

  Before, everyone was only busy welcoming the saint happily, but they didn’t know the news.

  Tang Yin, Liu Wenshan and others were shocked when they heard the news.

   Immediately, Tang Yin beamed with joy.

  He knows better than anyone what this news means.

Tang Yin couldn’t hide his excitement and said: “It’s really great! Once the navy is destroyed, the world will be all owned by my Ming Dynasty. My mentor, the importance of controlling the sea, has been discussed by students and Junior Brother Xu through letters. Great power desire To be rich and strong, you must have a coast. But if there is a coast, if the sea power is not in your hands, as long as our Ming Dynasty has ships, there will be nowhere to go and nowhere to control.”

  Tang Yin and Xu Jing, one is nautical development, and the other is arranging and training sailors. They both have profound knowledge of sea power.

  All the big countries in this world have coastlines, and those countries without coastlines are nothing to worry about.

  As long as there is a coastline, then the Ming Fleet, which has control over the sea, can enter and leave the land like no one.

  Because any coastline is long, it can be thousands of miles long and hundreds of miles short.

   There is no army of any country, stationed on this long coastline, can only choose some key positions.

   In this way, once attacked by a country with sea power, this battle will be impossible to fight.

   Just like Ming Dynasty, even if there are millions of soldiers and horses, but your coastline is so long, where do you guard?

  If you guard Guangzhou, I will concentrate on attacking Tianjin Wei; if you guard Fuzhou, I will attack Ningbo.

   And when you were exhausted and dispatched reinforcements by land, and spent ten times as much money and food as mine on reinforcements, and died, I have looted you and left!

  It can be said that the convenience of a boat is more than ten times stronger than that of a land vehicle.

  Thus, in theory, if the former Ming Dynasty only needed 30,000 elite soldiers and a sufficiently powerful fleet, the entire Ming Dynasty could be plunged into civil strife.

  For example, attacking Shanghai and threatening Hangzhou, the starting point of the Grand Canal.

   Such as attacking Tianjin Wei.

  This will paralyze the water transportation of the entire Ming Dynasty.

  The current situation is the same, and it is the same for Ming Dynasty. Then, for all the countries in the world, these other countries that are not vast and far short of military strength are simply fish on the chopping board.

  In the court, Xu Jing, Tang Yinren, etc., are well-known to control the sea.

  Others, such as Ouyang Zhi and others, are safer. What they have tasted is the benefits of the railway, and they think that more resources of the imperial court should be used to connect the east, west, north, south and north by the railway, and use the railway artery to subdue the Siyi.

  Only Liu Wenshan, at this time, did not look happy, but fell into deep thought. He meditated hard for a long time, then looked up at Fang Jifan and said: “The student has an immature idea.”

Fang Jifan still only lowered his head to eat and drink, and said vaguely: “Don’t ask me, since you think about it, just do it yourself. How can a teacher care about everything, know everything, teach you so much knowledge, don’t you think so?” Is it to let them eat dry food?”

  Liu Wenshan couldn’t help but smile wryly, but he glanced at his teacher gratefully.

  The mentor is still that Enshi! The most powerful thing about him is probably not just because he has all-encompassing knowledge in his chest and abdomen.

  The reason is that he knows how to let go, and is willing to let his disciples hone themselves.

   Only in this way can the disciples be inspired to think, constantly mobilize the initiative of the disciples, and improve themselves in the experience!

  It can be seen that the mentor not only knows astronomy from the top, but also geography from the bottom, the real strength is in cultivating talents!

  In ancient times, there were three thousand disciples of Confucius, who gave birth to seventy-two talents. Today, there are peaches and plums all over the world with his mentor.

  The more Liu Wenshan thought about it, the more he felt that his mentor was really unfathomable.

  In his heart… inexplicably and somewhat grateful, he knew that his aptitude was dull, if he hadn’t entered the mentor’s school and received the mentor’s careful training, he might have been lost to everyone, and he would have been muddled for the rest of his life!

  He felt endless emotion and gratitude in his heart, then he stood up and said: “Then, Your Majesty, benefactor, please leave.”

   “Let’s go, let’s go.” Zhu Houzhao waved his hand happily.

   After spending so long on the boat, after eating a meal, I feel happy.

  Fang Jifan felt that the only fly in the ointment was that there was more meat.

  Actually, he still likes rice.

  How about…in this Europe, also plant rice?

  Jiang Chen kept silent all the time, and when Fang Jifan came out to explain, he followed Fang Jifan cautiously, and when Fang Jifan came out, he said with an aggrieved expression: “Men…”

   “Oh.” Fang Jifan glanced at him, thinking that this man was so strange, he followed him when he urinated.

   “Teacher… the student has something to say, and he keeps talking.” Jiang Chen finally couldn’t hold back.

  Fang Jifan said conveniently, “Speak.”

  Jiang Chen looked a little gloomy, and said aggrievedly: “The student has been loved by the teacher, but he has been ineffective. In this northern province, it is difficult to make achievements. The student… the student feels ashamed of the teacher…”

  Fang Jifan folded his hands behind his back, and sighed, but…this Governor’s Mansion is a European-style building, and there are no pavilions, so…this sigh seems to be a little less poetic.

  It always feels like a violation.

Fang Jifan said: “A dragon has nine sons, and there will always be one or two who are useless. I am used to it as a teacher. Why do you still worry about it? Your talent is just like this. It’s not your fault, it’s your parents’ fault.” Question, don’t worry about it all the time, the teacher still loves you very much, okay, let’s go, don’t hinder the teacher’s hundred steps after dinner.”

  Jiang Chen didn’t know whether the teacher was comforting or scolding after hearing what his teacher said, but… he did feel much better in his heart: “Student walks with teacher.”

   Seeing his bowed head and humility, Fang Jifan couldn’t say anything, he could only sigh silently!

  …

  The Daming Navy began to attack again.

   Everyone knows that this is not the time to live a comfortable life, so after a short rest, a fleet went straight to the Strait of La Manches.

  The strait here separates the United Kingdom and France, and is the main channel for the entire Eastern Europe to enter and exit.

  Tang Yin is the commander-in-chief of the Ironclad Fleet this time, and his goal is to threaten Britain and France.

  The news of the destruction of the Spanish-Portuguese fleet, such a big event, naturally spread to the whole of Europe very quickly. Needless to say, how shocking this news is!

  In reality, the Spanish army across the sea is still in North Africa, fighting fiercely with the Ottomans.

   It’s just… This war will soon become meaningless.

  Because the Spaniards discovered.

  The large number of armies sent to North Africa have been cut off from supplies with the loss of sea control.

  The Ningbo Navy of the Ming Dynasty only needs 20 or 30 sailing warships across the Strait of Gibraltar, and the countless war supplies will be completely cut off.

  The Spaniards couldn’t help panicking.

  The tens of thousands of Spanish elites on the opposite side, at this moment, their lives are only held by dozens of sailing ships.

  Those supply ships may become hunting targets at any time once they go to sea, but…

  They couldn’t let these elites go unrescued, otherwise, not only the navy’s family would be ruined, but even the entire Spanish army would be completely wiped out.

   What’s more frightening is… the situation in Austria is not much better.

  Lost the support of the navy, hundreds of thousands of Ottoman troops began to sweep Hungary and Austria frantically.

  The Ottomans began to introduce relatively new artillery, which became a sharp weapon for siege.

  Across Europe… the situation has changed dramatically.

   This is no longer as simple as the invasion of Ming Dynasty, but the dream of the pagans who have been determined for hundreds of years is about to be realized.

  After weighing the pros and cons, the Spaniards began to rush to conclude an agreement with the Ningbo Navy in the Strait of Gibraltar.

   It has even reached the point where it will be at any cost.

  Portugal was completely exposed to the guns of the fleet, and its attitude began to waver.

  Tang Yin has led his navy to the English-French channel, commanding the scum of the world Wang Bushi, and in the spirit of hitting him first and then talking, he is preparing to attack a French seaport.

   But at this moment, a fast ship approached frantically from Rotterdam, bringing news of a mentor.

   “Duke Zhen has orders, please ask the general Tang to strike immediately.”

…

“The special envoy of His Majesty has arrived in the northern province. Mr. Liu Wenshan is negotiating with him. Mr. Liu suggested to Lord Zhen that in order to show sincerity, it is better not to fight. The special envoy of His Majesty is very sincere and said that everything can be negotiated. , it will inevitably hurt the peace of heaven.”

  After hearing this, Tang Yin couldn’t help but smile wryly.

   “It’s all here.” He shook his head!

  He came here on purpose, was preparing for a fierce battle, and then suddenly withdrew his troops?

  The generals in the back frown in thought.

   They began to worry about their military exploits.
