From a son-in-law to a favorite of the empress

Chapter 893

"Not only our Jilong community, but also Xiaolong community, Madou community, Damujiang community, Mujialiuwan community and other communities with relatively high baptism levels have all responded and participated in the war against the Dutch."

"On September 14, the general offensive will be launched. The various indigenous ethnic groups will also use this as a countdown to prepare for war by organizing troops and raising food."

"Dongfan Island has never seen such a grand occasion in more than 30 years. The blood of this land seems to be awakening."

Cai Husheng was excited and clenched his fists while speaking. He handed the marked map to Zhou Yuan.

Zhou Yuan looked carefully and shook his head, saying, "Don't be too optimistic about the situation. At least for now, I don't think the local aborigines have any blood."

"They are almost fence-sitters. They stand on whichever side has the advantage."

"Now we have the advantage, and defeating the Dutch is a good thing for them, so they are so active."

"If we lose, they will become honest again."

Cai Husheng smiled awkwardly, a little at a loss. He is a fence-sitter aborigine, and he certainly knows what his group of people think.

In the final analysis, they don't care where Dongfan Island belongs to, let alone who the ruler is.

They just want to survive, just want to live well, and whoever gives them milk is their mother.

Zhou Yuan continued: "This is understandable. Civilized sacrifices cannot be formed in a short period of time. It requires long-term bathing and immersion, and requires decades or hundreds of years of education."

"I don't care about their little thoughts. I only care about the correctness of the general direction."

"I will guide the bright road. If someone longs for light, follow me. If there are stubborn people, I will send them to a darker hell."

Cai Husheng coughed twice and quickly changed the subject: "Your Majesty, our Jilong Society is also ready. Several other family heads want to see you."

Zhou Yuan waved his hand and said: "When I advised them, they disdained it. Now they want to see me."

"But there is no need. Let them prepare for battle Well, if the war is won, I don't bother to investigate what mistakes they made. "

"Cai Husheng, the Jin Dynasty has the most tolerant attitude and the most sincere patience towards the people of Dongfan Island. This is what we should do."

"But, I believe you also know what I, Zhou Yuan, have done. If you really make me angry, I will be more vicious than the Dutch."

"You need to weigh and show all the measures in the war."

He stood up and said in a deep voice: "Set off in the afternoon and rush to Fort Zeelandia at full speed. Everything will be counted down to the general attack on September 14."

"This battle must be fought in one go."

...

The morning sun is not dazzling. After all, it is September, and the sea is not as hot as in summer.

The war has come to an end for the time being. Both sides are replenishing their shells and resources. The next battle can no longer be delayed.

Nie Zairong said in a deep voice: "The Dutch fleet is under great pressure at present. On the one hand, we attacked swiftly before, and on the other hand, their defense on the island is empty."

"So much so that their warships will hardly leave the port, and they will always work together to fight side by side to ensure that they can exert their maximum combat power and not give us the opportunity to divert the tiger away from the mountain and attack the city on the island."

"But now the news from the island has not been transmitted, I am afraid we can't drag it on, otherwise the pressure on the marshal will definitely be great."

Guan Lu heard this and nodded slowly: "Yes, without knowing the situation on the marshal's side, it is really difficult for us to judge the timing of the battle."

"However... According to the direction and time of the fire, the marshal should not have arrived at Fort Zeelandia at this moment, and has not launched a general attack on land. We still need a few more days."

Nie Zairong said: "The direction of the fire is the central The northeastern part of the mountain range is eight or nine hundred miles away from Fort Zeelandia. "

"The Marshal lit the fire on the fourth day of September. Calculating the time, it will take at least ten days to reach Fort Zeelandia, right?"

Guan Lu smiled and said, "Time is tight. The Dutch reinforcements in Batavia may arrive at any time. The Marshal must rush at night, and maybe even earlier."

Nie Zairong said, "It's useless for the Marshal to be anxious. It takes time to prepare food and war weapons."

"Even if they are faster and more urgent, it will take at least ten days to reach Fort Zeelandia."

Guan Lu nodded and said in a deep voice, "In that case, then wait a few more days!"

"But we can't stop the attack in the next few days. We must keep putting pressure on the Dutch and lock all their people on the warships. We can't let them have time to support the land battle."

The two looked at each other and reached a tacit understanding.

At this moment, the subordinates outside came to report, "Captain, there are three small boats approaching Penghu, a total of more than tenPeople, whose origins and purposes are unknown. "

"But the other ship does not have the conditions for artillery equipment, so there is no danger."

Guan Lu's eyes lit up, and he said anxiously: "Maybe there is news from the island. Stop the people and bring them up quickly. Don't open fire easily."

"Yes!"

The subordinates quickly went to make arrangements.

A moment later, several soldiers escorted more than ten people to the deck.

Guan Lu's eyes lit up, and he immediately saw Ye Qingying, and hurriedly said: "Quick! Untie Miss Ye! This is our own person!"

He quickly ran over, clasped his fists and bowed, saying: "Guan Lu meets Miss Ye."

Ye Qingying didn't waste any words, and said directly: "Zhou Yuan succeeded, the whole island responded, and attacked Fort Zeelandia on September 14."

"At that time, warships will be needed to launch an attack on the water, cooperate with the land siege, and take Fort Zeelandia in one fell swoop, and defeat the Dutch in the shortest time."

Guan Lu heard this, reacted slightly, and then laughed out loud: "Hahahaha! ”

After worrying for more than a month, his mood suddenly brightened up.

“Haha, I’m relieved! The prince has indeed implemented the plan step by step. Now the overall situation on land has been determined, and the only thing left is the sea.”

He looked at Ye Qingying and smiled, “Thank you for being so sharp, Miss Ye, and cooperating to send the information.”

Ye Qingying glanced at the more than ten people from Xingang Society behind her, and said slowly, “I didn’t come alone, but brought them, the villagers of Xingang Society, all of whom were baptized.”

The leader of Xingang Society and others laughed hurriedly, and it was so flattering.

But Ye Qingying’s next words made them dumbfounded.

“All the people in Xingang Society have been baptized, and the young generation are all Protestants. They are severely brainwashed, extremely loyal to the Dutch, and extremely hostile to Dajin.”

“I suggest that they all be killed to eliminate future troubles. "

Her face was cold, and it was obvious that she was not impulsive, but had been wanting to kill for a long time.

The big boss and others turned pale, and they couldn't help but shouting: "Miss Qingying! You are also a person who has eaten the food of Xingang Society, how can you repay kindness with hatred!"

Ye Qingying said in a deep voice: "I am just stating a fact. The young people of Xingang Society do hate Dajin. Maybe some people think they can change, but I think that is too inefficient and too risky. It is better to kill them all, and it can also serve as a warning to other villages and communities."

As the Minister of the Inner Court Department and an undercover who has lived in the dark space for many years, she has never been a soft-hearted person.

Guan Lu smiled and said: "I agree with Miss Ye's opinion, but... Miss Ye, this is not something we should decide."

"The prince will have his opinion."

"What we need to do is to count down to the general offensive on September 14 and complete the war preparations."

"After defeating the Dutch, we will discuss the problems of the people on the island."
