Chapter 469 Ningbo Water Village, the war is imminent
Zheng Sanhu stepped onto the lucky ship again. But this time, his identity was no longer a Japanese pirate, but a general of the Zheng family army.
After learning that Zheng Zhilong had officially launched an army, Zheng Sanhu was undoubtedly the happiest person.
He was a staunch pro-war faction and believed that the weak court was not qualified to command the powerful Zheng family army.
Jiushan Island's defeat was nothing more than an accident, and the court used a trick to attack.
If he were careful, this would never be the result.
Fortunately, he escaped.
As the saying goes, if you keep the green mountains, you will not worry about burning firewood.
But Zheng Sanhu didn't expect his chance to take revenge to come so quickly.
This time he was able to command nearly one hundred naval warships.
Each ship can carry more than 300 people, and the troops directly sent to it are about 30,000.
With such a powerful navy, he can defeat any opponent.
It is not too far from Fujian to Zhejiang, especially by taking the sea route.
If the sails are filled with wind, it will be here in a few days.
Zheng Sanhu vowed to take revenge this time, so the march was very stable and the distance between the navy warships was kept very compact.
He knew that the imperial navy was stationed near Ningbo Prefecture. Therefore, after the Zheng navy came to the coast of Zhejiang, he immediately ordered the expedition to Ningbo.
He wants to be open and do a battle with the imperial navy head-on
At the same time, Zheng Chenggong also received news.
He was in a heavy mood because his father really rebelled.
This time, my father's uprising without any concealment means that there is no room for maneuver.
No emperor could allow his generals to rebel.
When the son is wise today, he will naturally not forgive such sins.
Zheng Chenggong knew very well that he and his father were already at an absolute opposite.
Although he had already made a choice between home and country, king and father, loyalty and filial piety, when this day really came, he was still a little distressed and uncomfortable.
However, Zheng Chenggong's ability to adjust was still very strong. He knew that he had a heavy responsibility on his shoulders, so he could not fall down easily.
After learning that the rebels had approached Ningbo Water Village by sea, Zheng Chenggong immediately sent people to sea to investigate.
Although Ningbo Water Village is very strong, you should still be fully prepared.
The navy commanded by Zheng Sanhu had arrived at the periphery of Ningbo Water Village.
This time his mission is to kill and injure the imperial navy as much as possible, and it is best to be able to capture Ningbo Water Village in one fell swoop and slap the imperial court hard.
At this moment, Zheng Sanhu already knew that the leader of the imperial naval army was the eldest son Zheng Sen.
But so what?
He was loyal to the Zheng family, and the interests of the Zheng family should be put first.
From the moment when the eldest son accepted the emperor's name and was willing to serve the court, Zheng Sanhu looked down on him.
A person who even his father and his family will betray him is not worthy of concern.
Let’s take a look at the Zheng clan members who disobeyed Zheng Zhilong, those who were killed were killed and imprisoned.
Even Zheng Zhilong's most trusted fourth brother was imprisoned because of this.
This made Zheng Sanhu firmly believe that nothing is more important than the interests of the Zheng family.
Since Zheng Sen, Zheng Chenggong has now served in the court and represents the interests of the court, Zheng Sanhu will certainly defeat him without hesitation.
"Tell me the order and launch a general attack on the water village!"
Zheng Sanhu took a deep breath and ordered in a deep voice
Seeing the dark navy fleet outside the water village, Zheng Chenggong was in a very complicated mood.
The masts of those ships were hung with Zheng's flag.
Since he was very young, Zheng Chenggong was taught by his father to identify the flag of Zheng.
My father told himself that this flag represents the Zheng family and glory.
As long as you flap the Zheng flag on the sea, you can ensure safety. Ordinary pirates will leave with great sensibility and will never come forward to offend them.
Zheng Chenggong was very proud at that time, and he was proud of being a member of the Zheng family.
Later, he gradually discovered his father's ambition. His father was unwilling to be the chief town of Fujian, but wanted to split the territory and become kings and dominate.
Later, news came out that my father and Donglu had an secret conversation with each other.
Zheng Chenggong gradually discovered that he and his father had gone further and further.
Until this time, Zheng Chenggong still had a little fantasy before suppressing the Japanese siege in Zhejiang.
He hopes that his father can return to the wrong path and take the initiative to express his sincerity to the emperor.
But it turns out that he was thinking too much.
The so-called Southeast Japanese ills were just a big drama directed and acted by my father.
For his own selfish interests, my father ignored the people in the southeast and committed such a brutal atrocities.
Zheng Chenggong was really disappointed.
Although Jiushan Island achieved great victory, Zheng Chenggong was not happy at all.
Because he knew that his father had gone further and further, it was difficult to turn back.
As expected, my father really rebelled not long after.
My father sent troops from Fujian to divide into two groups, and the army from the sea rushed straight to Ningbo.
At this moment, the only thing Zheng Chenggong wanted to do was to defeat this army and wash away the shame of the Zheng family.
He understood that many people in the Zheng family must have opposed the rebellion, and they must have been suppressed by their father.
There is definitely zero tolerance for rebellion with the character of the Holy Emperor, but Zheng Chenggong may be able to make the emperor leniently detrimental to those innocent Zheng clan members.
To do this, he must win a big victory. Only in this way can the emperor be able to go online for his contributions.
As for his father, Zheng Chenggong no longer has hope.
He was able to survive and keep the incense for the Zheng family, which was his last filial piety to his father.
"Tell me to order and line up to meet the enemy!"
Zheng Chenggong pulled out of his regret and ordered in a deep voice.
Ningbo Water Village is in the shape of a gourd.
If the rebels want to attack, they will definitely attack Hulukou with all their might.
This is beneficial to Zheng Chenggong.
He only needs to order people to guard the entrance of the Shuizhai Village to defend the enemy outside the gate.
But in the same way, if the rebels blocked the entrance of the village, it would be impossible for Zheng Chenggong to order the navy to go out of the village to pursue it.
Now it depends on Zheng Cheng's function that cannot fully utilize the rebels' mentality of eager to start a war and regaining face, forcing the rebels to take the initiative to attack the water camp.
If it can be successful, Zheng Chenggong can take the opportunity to cause great damage to the rebels and greatly damage his vitality.
After all, although the ships and cannons of the Denglai Navy were strong, their practical experience was limited. Apart from the Battle of Bison Island and Jiushan Island, there was almost no major experience.
His opponent has rich experience in naval battles, and the longer the front line is, the more unfavorable it is for the Denglai Navy.
The only way is to make a concerted effort, fight quickly, and kill the master's tutor by random punches.
After Zheng Chenggong's order, the officers and soldiers of the village were ready, and all the cannons were aimed at the sea outside the village.
Through the monocular telescope, Zheng Chenggong could clearly see the approaching rebel navy.
The word Zheng is so dazzling.
Zheng Chenggong put down his telescope and closed his eyes to calm himself down.
