My father Zhu Gaoxu

Chapter 302
Zhu Zhanhe really didn't dare to gamble. On the one hand, it was Ge Cheng Erlang's rotten life, and on the other hand, it was the lives of thousands of Ming people. With the craziness of the Japanese pirates, maybe he would really fight Daming to the death.

Zhu Zhanhe didn't want to gamble with the lives of the people of Ming Dynasty, so after leaving the prison of the Ministry of Justice, he immediately went to the palace to meet Zhu Di, and told what Ge Chengerlang had said.

"How dare you threaten me with my people!"

After hearing this, Zhu Di slapped the table angrily and said angrily, he has grown up so big, no one has ever dared to threaten him.

"Grandfather, please calm down. That Ge Cheng Erlang has a deep scheming mind. He has prepared a trump card for his own life. If we really kill him, I'm afraid those common people will suffer disaster too!"

Zhu Zhanhe persuaded with a solemn expression.

When he was in the prison just now, he was also very angry, but after the anger passed, he calmly analyzed the current situation. Compared with Ge Cheng Erlang, the most important thing is to rescue people first.

I saw Zhu Di walking back and forth in the hall a few times, and finally stopped suddenly and looked at Zhu Zhanhe and asked, "What do you think about this matter?"

"Grandpa Emperor, Ge Cheng Erlang is indeed worthy of death, but the people of Ming Dynasty are more important, so I think you can use your tricks!"

Zhu Zhanhe had been thinking about this matter on the way into the palace, and now he had a countermeasure in mind.

"Just count?"

Zhu Di pondered for a moment after hearing the words, and then spoke again.

"You mean, let's agree to Ge Chengerlang's request, exchange him for those Ming people, and then use this to find their lair and wipe out all the remaining Japanese pirates in one fell swoop?"

"Grandpa Huang is wise, grandson is exactly what he wants!"

Zhu Zhanhe nodded immediately.

"Then have you ever thought about why we can't interrogate the location of the lair directly from their mouths after we have captured so many Japanese pirates?"

Zhu Di asked again in puzzlement.

"Grandpa, you don't know that there is more than one Japanese pirate's lair, and the location is not fixed, and they may move at any time, especially if we have captured so many Japanese pirates, the Japanese pirates in the lair will definitely move out, so no one knows now. where are they."

Zhu Zhanhe explained again.

"So that's it, these pirates are really cunning!"

Zhu Di nodded when he heard the words, and then thought about Zhu Zhanhe's plan, but then asked again.

"If we exchange Ge Cheng Erlang for the people, the other party will definitely propose to trade at sea. When the sea is vast, how can we track them?"

The question Zhu Di raised is also very realistic. In the past, the army of the Ming Dynasty also tried every means to find the lair of the Japanese pirates, but the situation at sea was complicated, and the Japanese pirates were familiar with the conditions of the sea, so they could easily throw off the following ships.

"In the past, those Japanese pirates were likely to get rid of our tracking, but the situation is different now, because we have a sharp weapon in our hands!"

Zhu Zhanhe said confidently.

"Sharp weapon?"

Zhu Di was taken aback for a moment, and was about to ask what kind of sharp weapon it was, but suddenly he had a flash of inspiration, and immediately slapped the table in surprise and said, "You're talking about a hot air balloon!"

"Exactly, there is almost no shelter on the sea. If you fly a hot air balloon from a boat and fly to a high place to look at it, you can see it almost at a glance. The Japanese pirates don't know about the hot air balloon, so they definitely don't think that we are staring at them in the sky!"

Zhu Zhanhe explained excitedly.

With the help of hot air balloons, they can send boats to follow the Japanese pirates far away, and then easily find the opponent's lair, and then wipe them all out.

"Good way! Good way!"

Zhu Di slapped his hands excitedly when he heard the words, he only thought about using the hot air balloon on the battlefield in the north, but he didn't expect to use it at sea.

"Zhanhe, I will leave this matter to you to host, let Zhang Fu assist you, and I will also give you the right to deploy troops, and the guards along the coast will be dispatched by you!"

After Zhu Di was excited, he immediately made a decision.

If you can follow the vine and find the lair of Japanese pirates like Gecheng Erlang, you can completely eradicate this powerful Japanese pirate force.

Although there will be other Japanese pirates growing up in the future, at least it can guarantee the safety of the Daming coast for a few years.

"Grandson obeys!"

Zhu Zhanhe immediately agreed.

In fact, he has a bigger plan for the Japanese pirates. If it is implemented, it can completely solve the problem of Japanese pirates along the coast of Daming.

But now is not the time to talk about this plan. It should be more convincing to wait until he has wiped out the Japanese pirates like Ge Cheng Erlang, and with the prestige of a big victory, he proposes this plan to Zhu Di.

Accepting Zhu Di's appointment, Zhu Zhanhe immediately went to find Zhang Fei.

Zhang Fu and others made great contributions, and after accepting Zhu Di's blockade, they are also preparing to go back to Tianjin. After all, there are still a lot of things on the shipping side that need him to deal with.

Zhu Zhanhe found Zhang Fu, released Ge Cheng Erlang, and told him his plan.

After hearing this, Zhang Fu was also shocked and said, "Hot air balloon? The thing that is said to be able to fly into the sky is actually real?"

Zhang Fu had heard of hot air balloons, but like most people, he thought they were just folklore, and even he didn't know that hot air balloons were invented by Zhu Zhanhe.

"You don't have to worry about the hot air balloon. Now the frontier army has equipped a batch of hot air balloons, and the response is very good. Put them on the ship and they can take off. Now I want to know, if there are hot air balloons, are you sure to find them? Ge Chengerlang's lair?"

Zhu Zhanhe asked Zhang Fu solemnly.

After all, he knows nothing about marching and fighting at sea, so he still needs to listen to Zhang Fu's opinion.

"It's definitely no problem. The lookouts on the ship stand on the mast and can see far away, let alone fly in the air. When we hang behind the Japanese pirates far away, we will definitely find their lair! "

Zhang Fu patted his chest and promised.

As long as Ge Chengerlang's old lair is found, he can mobilize the troops and ships of the coastal guards, and it will be easy to destroy the opponent at that time!
"Okay, it's enough to have your words. I'm going to see that Ge Chengerlang and agree to his request!"

Zhu Zhanhe was finally relieved when he heard the words, and after he finished speaking, he asked Zhang Fu to make some preparations in advance, and then went to the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice again.

In the interrogation room of the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, although Ge Cheng Erlang was tied to a frame, his expression was quite relaxed. Although Zhu Zhanhe didn't agree to release him just now, he could tell that the other party attached great importance to the lives of those people.

Sure enough, at this moment, Zhu Zhanhe came to the interrogation room again, which made Ge Chengerlang smile proudly: "Your Highness, I knew you would definitely come back!"

"Ge Cheng Erlang, you have won. I have already asked Grandpa Huang for instructions. He agreed to exchange you for those people who were looted by you!"

Zhu Zhanhe glanced at Ge Chengerlang, and then deliberately made a helpless expression and said.
