I want to be a grandson

Chapter 586 The First Naval Battle!
In the martial arts hall, on the school field.

Zhang Fu and Zhu Neng were lying on the ground under the shade of a tree, panting heavily, their chests heaving uncontrollably.

With my eyes closed, I felt that my eyelids seemed to weigh a thousand pounds, as if I didn't even have the strength to open them.

Their bodies were exhausted to the extreme, if they were not supported by the thoughts in their hearts, they might have collapsed long ago.

But even so, the last part of the run was not easy, stumbling and difficult to support.

In the end, the two of them no longer wanted to be competitive, they could only support each other and move forward together.

When a person is extremely fatigued, his brain goes blank, and he will not have the energy to think about other things, nor will he take that point of disagreement to heart.

Qu Tao and Sheng Yong did not step forward, but looked at them from a distance,

"Let's go, we have nothing to do here."

Sheng Yong said: "Just let them lie down like this?"

"Then why don't you carry them back?" Qu Tao said, "Both of them have grievances in their hearts, let them solve it by themselves."

I don't know how long it took, but the two people lying on the ground finally breathed a sigh of relief and recovered a little bit of physical strength.

But they were still very tired, and the hard and dirty ground was more valuable than anything else to them, and it made them feel comfortable.

After a while, they heard the sound of birds chirping in their ears, and the setting sun also sprinkled on their faces.

"Is your father okay?"

"Thanks to your concern, I still can't die!"

"It was me, Meng Lang, so I shouldn't have said that about your father..." Zhu Neng felt a little guilty.

In any case, Zhang Yu was his boss, and he was also an elder older than him. He was young and energetic back then, but when he got hot in his head, he would say out any unhappiness in his heart.

He didn't understand Zhang Yu's situation at all, so when he spoke, he seemed sarcastic and sarcastic.

"Actually, I regretted it afterwards. Your father is about the same age as mine. When I got home and saw my father's ranking, I thought that even though your father is a Shangguan, he never deliberately made things difficult for my father.

I just woke up and realized how ridiculous what I did..."

"I thought about finding a chance to make amends to your father, but when I learned that your father returned home on leave, I lost the chance..."

Although Zhu Neng is more loyal to King Yan, he is not a shrew who messes around, makes trouble for no reason, and doesn't know right from wrong.

In any case, the words I said are inappropriate for an elderly person.

Military generals are not like literati, who can speak sincerely, have a serious attitude, talk a lot, and even write poems and songs to express their apologies.

And the military commander may sometimes be just a look, a word of apology.

Although the words are poor and the language is lacking, the attitude is often extremely sincere, unlike the double-faced literati.

Seeing him like this, the resentment in Zhang Fu's heart disappeared, "Do you think the imperial court asked you to lecture in the martial arts hall just to take your job and vent your anger for my father?"

"Is not it."

I apologize to Zhang Yu, but Zhu Neng still despises the court's actions!
Even if he made a mistake, the imperial court would just issue a decree, even if he was demoted, at least it would be fair and aboveboard!But let me talk about what Wutang is?Soft nails?

Zhang Fu got up slowly, leaned against the tree trunk, looked at the sunset glow in the west, and said, "Yao Guangxiao, how is Qiu Fu's attitude towards the court, and what did they say in front of you? You should be very clear. I just want to ask you a question." , They talk inside and outside, but can there be a word of loyalty to the emperor?"

Zhu Neng also sat up, staring at Zhang Fu sharply, trying to observe something from his face.

He understood that Zhang Fu's words came from Zhang Fu's mouth, which meant that His Majesty must know something!
And Zhang Fu also met his gaze, met his four eyes, and did not dodge.

"Monk Yao Guangxiao Daoyan was sent by the court to chant scriptures and pray for blessings at King Yan, but you should know exactly how many prayer scriptures he has recited!"

Zhang Fu stared at him and said, "A monk, instead of cultivating well in the temple, wants to worship Taoist priests as his teacher, learn Yin and Yang techniques of intrigue and scheming, and also intends to get close to the vassal king, speak seductive words, and is always ready to stir up the situation!"

"In the name of a monk, you practice military swords, wear cassocks, but devote yourself to war, can you deny it without conscience!"

Zhu Neng took a deep breath and felt a chill hit his body at the same time. He never thought that Zhang Fu knew so clearly!

In the eyes of outsiders, Yao Guangxiao may be just a monk that King Yan likes, and every time he asks him about Buddhism, it is also to devote himself to worshiping Buddha.

Even if he often came and went to King Yan's mansion, who would have thought that such a benevolent and kind-hearted eminent monk would actually think of rebellion and war!
If Zhu Neng was not a confidant of King Yan and had contact with Yao Guangxiao, he would not have believed it.

Zhang Fu continued to ask, "Although Qiu Fu lacks strategy, he is brave, but as a minister of the Ming Dynasty, he received the imperial salary.

But he only thinks about the vassal king and is only loyal to the vassal king. He has no king or father in his heart, do you recognize it! "

Now that he said it all, Zhu Neng didn't want to defend himself, and what's more, even if he didn't admit it at this time, so what?It's just sophistry, it's useless!
"Since they are subordinates of His Highness King Yan, they belong to King Yan... Since you all know, why didn't you report to the Ming court? As long as the court orders, both Yao Guangxiao and Qiu Fu can be arrested."

If it really got to that point, it would be tantamount to publicizing that the emperor was dissatisfied with King Yan, and he was ready to strike!
Because every vassal king will have his own people, the court will cut off other people's left and right arms for no reason, whether it kills people or transfers them to other places, the result is the same!
They are all telling the world that the contradiction is irreconcilable!It can also be said that there is no end to death!
So unless it is absolutely necessary, the imperial court will not do that!
"Humph!"

Zhang Fu snorted mockingly, "No need to report, what a sage Your Majesty is, he knows all this clearly, but he just doesn't want to pay attention to those jumping clowns!"

"Yao Guangxiao encouraged me to marry me. You can't understand the tricks involved, and they all understand that once my father accepts, where will I, His Majesty's confidant, put His Majesty?

It can not only damage His Majesty's people, but also destroy His Majesty's majesty. Even a fool can see the viciousness of the intentions and the insidious schemes! "

"But just because my father was loyal to His Majesty and didn't want our father and son to do unfaithful and unrighteous pigs and dogs, he was squeezed out and suppressed by you! Tell me, you are loyal in your heart, have you been eaten by dogs! "

Zhu Neng was silent, even if he was talking about breaking the sky, the word loyalty and righteousness cannot be violated, especially generals!

It's just that this loyalty was originally towards His Royal Highness King Yan...

With a hoarse voice, Zhu Neng asked: "Since you know that I am the confidant of King Yan, why did the court ask me to give lectures in the martial arts hall?"

Zhang Fu supported the tree trunk and stood up, looking at the glowing red sunset, he said: "I don't know... But I know that His Majesty cares about the royal family's affection, and is absolutely unwilling to go to that kind of situation..."

"It's been a short time for you to take over as Deputy Qianhu. Although you are a confidant, you haven't been exposed to many confidential matters. You can still be saved, and if you can persuade him, that's also good..."

Zhang Fu shook his head and smiled, mockingly said, "Don't think too much of yourself, you are not worthy of your majesty's attention, your majesty said that you only have half a year in the martial arts hall, and after half a year, you will be allowed to return to your original position.
How to go on the road ahead is up to you to decide for yourself. "

Having finished speaking, he walked away.

Looking at his staggering back, Zhu Neng sighed, shook his head, his face was full of sorrow...

Zhang Fu was right, he had not been a confidant of the King of Yan for a long time.

After his father died in the 27th year of Hongwu, he inherited his father's post, but he didn't take the post at that time, but kept his filial piety at home. After all, this is etiquette and an act of expressing filial piety.

Although Zhu Di had been very affectionate to him before that, but at that time he had no official or job, and everything was done for his father's sake, so how could he really participate in keeping secrets.

After he finished his filial piety and returned to the army, Qiu Fu gradually conveyed certain views to himself, and after talking and verifying slowly, he was trusted by His Highness King Yan.

Because the time is still short, even if they are "confidantes", in the eyes of His Highness King Yan, their status is not the same as them...

……

"The general's horn bow cannot be controlled, the iron clothes of the general guard are cold and hard to wear, the railings of the vast sea are hundreds of feet of ice, and the gloomy clouds are gloomy and condensed..."

Standing on the roof of the ship, Wang Yi leaned on a railing, looking at the rough sea, singing this poem.

Qianhu Liu Tang who came out of Shenji Camp stood beside him, blinked his eyes and said, "My lord, who are you going to send?"

"Um?……"

Wang Yi suddenly felt very confused. He hollowed out his head and thought of a poem in order to pretend to be Thirteen. Doesn't this correspond to the scene of the sea?

How did it become who do you want to send it to?

"My lord, this farewell poem is very good. It is a masterpiece written by Cen Shen, a poet of the Tang Dynasty. This poem describes the magnificent scenery of flying snow in August, the feeling of seeing off guests outside the Western Regions, and seeing off guests in the snow.

Especially that sentence suddenly came like a spring breeze overnight, thousands of trees and pear blossoms bloomed, it was absolutely amazing..."

"Wait, is there a sea in the Western Regions?"

Wang Yi blinked his eyes, thinking he was wrong, this is obviously a poem about the sea, how could it become a poem about the scenery of the Western Regions!
When asked by Wang Yi, Liu Tang was also dumbfounded, "Western Region...Your Excellency, you are joking, there is no sea in the Western Region!"

Whoops!
Shame!
Only then did Wang Yi realize that he had read the wrong poem!

After finally pretending once, I was slapped in the face!

However, as long as you are not embarrassed, it is someone else!
"Uh, it's not to see people off, but to think of the officials and people who saw us off along the way when we left Daming, as well as relatives at home. Now that I think about it, I remember it vividly..."

"Oh, I understand, my lord is missing Daming. In fact, we are all homesick too, but it will be fine in a few months. When we go to Sudan, we can return..." Liu Tang comforted.

"Yeah, I'll be back soon..."

Wang Yi also hurriedly pretended to be homesick...

"My lord, there are ten sea ships sailing towards us!" At this time, a soldier came to report.

Wang Yi hurriedly looked forward, and saw a few small black spots on the sea in front of him moving here.

"The order is that the enemy and the enemy of the ship ahead are unknown, and all officers and soldiers are on alert immediately, carry artillery and prepare ammunition, and are ready to fight at any time!"

"Yes, your subordinates obey!"

"Send the order, the sea-going ship immediately adjusts to an oblique formation, and all the muzzles are aimed at the incoming enemy!"

"Yes! My subordinates obey!"

The oblique array is an echelon oblique formation of ancient fleets or ship formations in naval battles, and its formation line is obliquely intersecting with the course line.

The advantage is that the warship has strong maneuverability, relatively concentrated firepower, good defense, easy to change formation, moderate firepower balance between front and rear, and can almost always attack the enemy with flank artillery.

The messenger sent the order through the semaphore, and the two warships behind immediately moved up and maintained a diagonal formation.

The soldiers in the cabin also got busy immediately. The gunner wiped the barrel and prepared ammunition, while the other soldiers checked their swords and armor, ready to go to battle at any time!

At this time, the people on the dozens of ships also discovered the warships here.

"Master, look at the flag hanging on the opposite side, this should be the ship of the Daming Mission."

"it is good!"

The leader was a 23-year-old man, his face was pale, his figure was relatively thin, his eyes were swollen, and he looked obviously over-indulgent.

Hearing the report from the man below, he yelled happily and said, "I happened to go to that poor guy Liang Daoming to borrow some food, and it would be great to meet the mission order! These three boats are expensive. It just happens to be taken back to expand its strength!"

The person next to him persuaded, "Young Master, Daming's ship has artillery. I heard it is very powerful. We don't understand the situation yet, so we can't attack rashly. Let's go back first, and don't conflict with them..."

Hearing this, the young man dismissed it and said, "I passed it on from generation to generation, and you let me go back empty-handed, how can I convince the crowd! Let the brothers below know that I am afraid of Ming soldiers and horses,
Even if I go back to my father, I won't be able to do the job. Hmph, wouldn't it be embarrassing to be ridiculed at that time! "

"Master, don't dare to start a war easily... Their artillery is too far away. Even if the young master wants to rob them, he must first try to get close, and then board the ship at the right time to kill them..."

A minion came to report, "Master, their boat has slowed down, and they flagged us to get out of the way."

Although there is no detailed and common semaphore at sea, there are simple ways to communicate, and those who have lived at sea all year round can understand it.

The young man ordered, "Don't worry about him! Keep going!"

"Woooooooo..."

A horn sounded.

The people at the bottom saw the big boat approaching in front of them, and the distance was getting closer, so they persuaded, "Master, there are big boats on the opposite side, and they are equipped with artillery. It's not worthwhile to apply for a job with them. Let's retreat..."

"The other side has sounded a warning!"

"Don't be noisy!"

The young man's face darkened, he gritted his teeth, and said with a ferocious face: "Since I have met them, there is no reason to let them go! It doesn't matter if the boat is bigger than ours, as long as they get close, they are fish and shrimp in the sea. Let us butcher!

Tell the helmsman to go fast! "
