Chapter 1768 Dinghai Fubo, aiming for thousands of miles
The carriage staggered, but it was not entering the palace.
This made Fang Jifan panic.
Because it was clearly heading towards Tianjin Wei.
Tianjin Wei…
Not right...
At this point in time, it should be...
Fang Jifan patted on the door, trying to struggle, but the eunuchs and guards outside did not dare to respond, they just hurried all the way.
Fang Jifan gritted his teeth, but still got the point...
He suddenly realized that he had no temper at all.
Waiting for the dawn to dawn, the sky turned white.
The carriage has arrived at Dagu Port.
Outside Dagu Port, ironclad ships appeared on the ocean.
One of the scum of the world, the Wang Bushi, has a huge prow, which is at the same level as the pier. The carriage passes directly over the trestle bridge, and Fang Jifan is not given a chance to get off at the port. board the ship.
And at this moment...the door was unlocked.
Fang Jifan got out of the car angrily.
The old **** bowed down long ago, and dozens of guards also knelt on the ground, just kowtow.
At this moment, I finally heard a familiar voice, and saw Zhu Houzhao in a naval uniform, with his arms outstretched, and a smile on his face: "Hahahahaha...Old Fang, I knew it. As soon as I said I was sick, You must have been unprepared, you see, I really have a clever plan."
Fang Jifan turned around and wanted to run away. Anyway, let’s get off the boat first. It’s safer to be under the boat. It’s more suitable for him to stand at the port, waving his uncut hat, and wave to the disciples, grandchildren or relatives who are about to sail away on the boat. goodbye!
Even if necessary, Fang Jifan didn’t mind shedding a few hot tears, beating his chest and falling down, shouting hysterically with a choked voice, you must come back safely ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
But... Fang Jifan didn't want to board the ship, he didn't want to be the one who was sent off.
He turned around.
It seems that Zhu Houzhao was prepared.
Dozens of imperial guards had already stopped Fang Jifan, and the bridge connecting the trestle was also demolished.
Fang Jifan: "..."
Zhu Houzhao stepped forward quickly, and put Fang Jifan in his arms: "Old Fang, old Fang, don't get excited. I am the commander of the navy, and you are the deputy commander of the navy. Now there are stubborn bandits at sea. I and you How can you just sit back and watch? You have to recruit disobedient ministers yourself, and wipe out all these rebellious ministers and thieves. Whatever you run, come here, just follow me! Hurry, hurry, pass the order and set sail...Today...we Burn coal and set sail, and if you don’t destroy the Xiongnu, you won’t come back.”
He gave an order, so the ship went up and down, and whistles came and went!
This is the voice of conveying orders to each other. Immediately afterwards, the hull began to move slowly, and was slowly pulled out of the military port by the towing ship. On the huge chimney, black smoke billowed, and the hull began to vibrate. The towing ship untied the iron chain and separated from each other...
Fang Jifan supported the iron railing.
He stared wide-eyed at the land getting farther and farther away. He saw the people on the shore, all of whom were dark, and took a closer look. They all took off their caps and square scarves, and waved in this direction. I don’t know if they were crying or not, but ...Fang Jifan wanted to cry.
At this time, he turned his head to look at Zhu Houzhao, and said: "Your Majesty, you are too nonsense. Does Your Majesty know the consequences of doing this?"
"I don't know." Zhu Houzhao's answer was very straightforward!
"Da Ming cannot do without His Majesty." Fang Jifan said a little excitedly.
"But..." Zhu Houzhao said: "But you said yourself, I am the son of God, and God will always protect me, and everything can be saved. Did you say that? You also said... I am very smart, civil and military Shuangquan, for three thousand years, no one can compare with me, and you didn't say that? So... I'm just going to beg for thieves, so what's the danger?"
Fang Jifan: "..."
Does this count as shooting yourself in the foot?
Fang Jifan said heartbrokenly: "The minister is not concerned about His Majesty's safety, but... people in the world cannot do without His Majesty. Without His Majesty, all the subjects in the world are like losing their father."
Zhu Houzhao kept a straight face: "This is easy to handle, I have a prince."
Fang Jifan gritted his teeth: "His Royal Highness is still young."
Zhu Houzhao immediately said: "No, you have always praised the prince for being smart, and he is a dragon and phoenix among people. What's more, this prince was taught by you. He has read books with you for so many years. Why, have you forgotten? If the prince is even in charge of the country You can't do such a trivial matter well, this is your crime of deceiving the emperor. Think about it, the emperor and I have so much trust in you, handing over the crown prince to you, but you let him make a straw bag? You say is not it?"
Fang Jifan tilted his head hard, at least looking cute, after all...cute people are not too bad luck.
Then nodded seriously: "If you want to come to His Royal Highness, you will be able to help and protect the country."
"That's right." Zhu Houzhao immediately raised his eyebrows again, and said happily: "In this life, I only want to do one thing I want to do, and make great achievements like the champion. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. , Lao Fang, why are you still hesitating here? How can a real man live drunk and dream of death by relying on his father's shadow while he is alive? He should stand up to the sky and create miracles for all ages, so that all children and grandchildren will look up to him."
"Your Majesty said it was easy, but I really have a title and countless family properties to inherit, and I can really live my life like a dream..." Fang Jifan complained in his heart, because his family really has a cow.
Zhu Houzhao waved his hand: "Okay, don't be naughty, the ship has already sailed, you just accept your fate! Come to the command cabin, and I will show you the plan."
Fang Jifan had no choice but to look back at the disappearing land with a face of reluctance, and then moved!
Twelve iron-clad ships spread out in the shape of wild geese, heading south slowly. The bows of the ships cut the sea, and the waves slammed against the hull. That day... the smoke was still billowing. Standing on the deck, it seemed that I could feel it too. Under the deck, the iron-clad ship's heart made of steel continuously delivers energy.
Not long after, Fang Jifan came to the command cabin, only to find that...all old acquaintances here.
Xu Jing looked at his mentor with a face of shame.
Liu Jin blushed and hid in the corner.
Only Zhu Houzhao, in front of the podium, has spread out the map.
He looked at Fang Jifan and said: "I have already counted the days, old Fang, if your plan is completed, then...we will arrive in the Mediterranean Sea in eight months, and here...after we get there, we need to rely on the darkness of the night, Through the strait, and then ambushes in this area, after that..."
Having said that, he took out the ruler and drew a picture on the map, which was densely packed with numbers marked by Zhu Houzhao.
This must be a **** battle.
Testing the combat effectiveness of this new fleet.
Of course, it is also a test of whether Xu Jing and Fang Jifan's strategy of luring the enemy can succeed.
After all... the supply of ironclad ships is special, and ordinary ports can't supply them at all. That is to say... they will stay in the Franji sea area for at most two months. If they can't find the main force of the opponent's fleet within two months, they will wipe them out in one fell swoop. , then... must return, and then rush to West Kunlun Continent, the port under the control of Ming Dynasty, for repairs.
At that time, the fleet has already been discovered by the enemy. Once the Armada Fleet senses something strange, breaks it up into parts, and adopts a harassment strategy, the entire Ironclad Fleet will fall into a very passive situation.
As for this voyage... the imperial court has been preparing for half a year, and not only the ports along the way are ready for supplies.
Before the armored fleet set off, a fleet of dozens of ships from the Ningbo Navy had also set off first.
Before the ironclad fleet, they pulled a large amount of supplies, which can temporarily provide supplies for the ironclad ship, and at the same time open the way ahead. If they encounter scattered enemy ships, they can attack first, so as not to leak the surprise attack of the ironclad ship.
In addition to thousands of sailors, helmsmen and gunners on board, there was also an elite infantry from the First Army, a total of 4,000 people, not many, but enough to win by surprise.
As for specialized medical staff, there are a lot of canned food, a lot of medicine, and even health personnel responsible for ship sanitation.
These...all of them are silver, and they have consumed countless silver. If they can't win the first battle...Fang Jifan feels that he can jump into the sea.
Zhu Houzhao described his plan in detail, appearing to be very serious. Occasionally, Xu Jing was used as a supplement, and Fang Jifan just watched the fun. When he thought that he had left without saying goodbye, and didn't know what happened on land, he couldn't help thinking about it. Jump into the sea and flee.
Fortunately, the sense of justice in his heart and the righteousness in his heart stopped Fang Jifan. Fang Jifan is a person with three views, strange and upright, and he is determined to go to the dark side with Zhu Houzhao, a lunatic!
It will be night.
The hazy sunset left only an afterimage on the sea level.
The sparkling sea seemed to be calmer. Fang Jifan was sitting on the deck, while Zhu Houzhao was standing. He crossed his hands and looked at the setting sun that was about to set. The setting sun shot into his eyes, deep in his eyes, as if With hope like a newborn sun.
"Old Fang, look at how beautiful this sea is. There are not many people who can see such a beautiful scenery. When the emperor went out to sea, he must have seen such a scenery. At that time, he didn't know... he was in the heart What are you thinking. If he knows that I am also going out to sea at this moment, he must be very angry again."
Fang Jifan nodded and said: "Yes, if you know that His Majesty has also tied his dear and beloved son-in-law, Cheng Long Kuai, to the boat, you must vomit three liters of blood."
"You have to be happy, don't always keep a straight face, so many people on this ship are looking at me, looking at you, we have courage, they have courage, as a general, we must not be surprised, even if it is If the knife is about to reach your neck, or you are about to pee your pants, you still have to raise your face and deal with it calmly."
Having said that, Zhu Houzhao squatted down, squeezed Fang Jifan's face, raised it up, and so... Fang Jifan was squeezed into a smiling face, Zhu Houzhao said: "Because everyone is afraid, so we have to be fearless, you know I don’t understand, do you understand?”
