Zheng Tie turned his head to the guard beside him and said, "Pick the map over."

The guard took out the map from his bag and handed it to Zheng Tie.

Zheng Tie, who took the map, put the map flat and opened it on the desktop.

"Come on, come and see!" Zheng Tie waved his hand and signaled the people on the table to step forward.

The map is a map that includes Pi Island and Dengzhou Prefecture. In addition to these two places, Jinzhou Wei and Fuzhou Wei and the islands along the coast are clearly marked on it.

Several people surrounded the map on the table.

Zheng Tie pointed to the location marked with Qingniwa on the map and said, "Our soldiers landed from this location through ships, passed through Qingniwa as fast as possible, took down the line of Muchangyi and Nanguam, and cut off the possibility of the slave army in Jinzhou City going westward to Lushun."

With the sound of words, his fingers passed by several positions on the map.

South Guam faces Jinzhou City directly. Once something happens in South Guam, it is difficult to hide from the slave thieves defending generals in Jinzhou City.

"Our other fleet bypassed Songshu Island and landed directly from Lushunkou to capture Jinzhou Zhongzuo Qianhu Station. At the same time, the fleet was on guard against the Dengzhou Navy who might have come from Dengzhou." Zheng Tie's finger finally landed on Tieshan Island.

Tieshan Island is located between Dengzhou and Lushun. As long as a fleet is arranged near Tieshan Island, it is difficult for ships from Dengzhou to bypass Tieshan Island to come to Lushun.

Zhao Wu looked at the map on the table and said, "If you arrange this way, you will need at least two fleets."

"That's right, in order to capture Lushun, two fleets will be used this time. In addition to Zheng Yingzheng's fleet, another fleet has stayed on Jeju Island. In the past month, it will transport war soldiers from Jeju Island to Pi Island." Zheng Tie explained to him.

Zhao Wu pondered for a long time and said, "If two fleets cooperated, it would be a big problem to take down Lushun. But in this way, the soldiers stationed in Lushun will face the slave soldiers of Jinzhou Guards, the navy of Dengzhou and the Ming army, and will be attacked from both sides."

"I understand your thoughts." Zheng Tie said, "You think Lushun is alone and taking Lushun is not worth the cost for our tiger flag."

Zhao Wu nodded slightly after hearing this and said, "If we want to attack the slave thief, we can completely attack Zhenjiang. There is no need to spend so much effort to attack Lushun."

The soldiers on Pi Island are on the shore and Tieshan are Tieshan. You can come to Zhenjiang by land. The sea surface from Pi Island to Tieshan is not wide. You only need a few small boats to transport the soldiers from Pi Island to Tieshan.

"Haha, how about it, I'll tell you that Brother Zhao Wu will have the idea of ​​attacking Zhenjiang." Zheng Tie suddenly laughed and looked at his left hand and turned into Yan Weixin.

Yan Weixin smiled in agreement and said, "You really got it right. You won. Looking back, my jar of wine belongs to you."

"I'm just disrespectful." Zheng Tie laughed proudly.

The conversation between the two of them made Zhao Wu look confused and said in confusion: "What are you talking about? Why do I listen more and more? "

"Staff General Yan, are you here to explain?" Zheng Tie said to Yan Weixin.

Yan Weixin nodded, then looked at Zhao Wu and said, "I won't talk about the bet between Commander Zheng and I. I will talk about why I would rather try my best to take down Lushun than use troops to Zhenjiang."

"I'm really puzzled." Zhao Wudao.

Yan Weixin pressed a finger on the map and marked the location of Lushun, and asked, "Zhao Yingzheng, tell me, where is the closest distance between Lushun?"

"Of course it's Jinzhou Wei and Fuzhou Wei." Zhao Wu blurted out after looking at the map for a long time.

Yan Weixin shook her head gently and said, "If you only look at the sea, where do you think it's closest?"

"Dengzhou, Dengzhou and Lushun are across the sea. The reason why the Ming army has always firmly occupied Lushun is that Dengzhou has helped the most," said Zhao Wu.

Yan Weixin smiled and said, "Didn't Zhao Yingzheng understand this very clearly? If he took over Lushun, as long as he built a navy camp in Lushun, Dengzhou will be the one in our tiger flag."

"This is called Xiang Zhuang's sword dance in Pei Gong." Zheng Tie said with a smile.

Zhao Wu, who suddenly realized, said: "Lushun is indeed more suitable for building a dock than Pi Island. As long as there are enough sea boats, the Dengzhou navy will not do anything under our noses."

"It's not just Dengzhou Navy!" Yan Weixin raised his hand and pointed at the location of Dazhigu, saying, "When the Dengzhou is taken down in the future, the Ming Dynasty naval forces in Dazhigu will be completely abandoned. They can only sail near the sea and cannot leave the sea at all, let alone take advantage of the sea trade from the ocean."

Because Tianjin Wei is the gateway to the capital, it has long become the private land of many nobles in the capital. If the nobles in the south make profits from maritime trade, the nobles in the north also rely on maritime trade to seek benefits through Dazhigu.

Every year, the huge interests of maritime trade did not enter the treasury, but fell into the hands of nobles and gentry.

Zhao Wu looked back and forth at the two locations in Lushun and Dengzhou marked on the map, and said, "So our target is not slave thieves, but Dengzhou?"

"No, slave thieves are our target," said Zheng Tie. "The slave thieves suffered a loss in Jinzhou. Over the past year, they have begun to extend their hands to the grassland. So we have to help a group of Lin Danhan on the grassland to surround Wei to save Zhao, so that slave thieves dare not send out a large army to deal with the tribes on the grassland."

Like in history, Huang Taiji saw that he could not enter the Ming Dynasty through Shanhaiguan, so he set his mind on the grassland and persuaded Korqin and other tribes to attack Lin Danhan's Chahar tribe.

Because the Mongolian right wing was basically included in the territory by the tiger flag, Lin Danhan gave up the idea of ​​attacking the Mongolian right wing after several tests. Once the slave thieves and Mongolia joined forces to attack the Chahar tribe, Lin Danhan had only the only way to escape to the north of the desert.

The tiger flag was temporarily unable to take over the entire grassland, so the Military and Political Department decided not to give Huang Taiji the opportunity to unify the grassland tribes, insisted on limiting slave thieves to Liaodong, and consumed the national strength of the pseudo-jin little by little.

Without the support of Shanxi merchants, the plundering of resources cannot be robbed. The pseudo-jin trapped in Liaodong will only gradually become weaker. A robber group cannot grab things, and you can think of any consequences in the end.

Even if Huang Taiji wants to change, those others who have long been accustomed to plundering to obtain benefits may not be willing to accept this change.

"We are withering each other!" Zhao Wu said with a smile.

The Ming Dynasty was the enemy of the tiger flag, and the pseudo-jin was also the enemy of the tiger flag.

Many soldiers and officers in the Tiger Flag Army came from Liaodong. Even the lord and several senior executives of the Tiger Flag Army also came from Liaodong, which also indicates that the Tiger Flag and the pseudo-jin have no possibility of peace.
