Although Cao Bianjiao left Beijing this time, he has always attracted much attention and knows where he is talking about.

The government and the people were quite disturbed by this incident in Japan and were discussing it privately.

However, the Ming Dynasty is now in a complicated way and all matters are being prepared. Once prepared, a big discussion will be held and a vote will be held, and passed in a form of "one heart" to declare to the world.

This happened after the New Year. It is still in the second year of Jingzheng, and the Ming Dynasty and the opposition were extremely busy.

Although it is winter in the north of the Ming Dynasty and Liaodong, it still cannot stop the heat here.

Even in winter, you can cultivate and hunt everywhere, and you can see the mountains and thoroughfares everywhere. Some fishing boats are now breaking the ice and going out to sea to catch fish and shrimps, day and night.

Liaodong is relatively a free place, and it is established from the "blank". Most places do not have Chen Ke from the Ming Dynasty for more than 200 years. The establishment of the system, policy implementation and future development are relatively easy.

Sakhalin Island.

You Shiwei is now the deputy general, stationed on Sakhalin Island. He is now at the base, looking at the chart on the table in front of him, with a cold face and a bright look.

He was surrounded by three commanders, looking at the chart. One of them said: "Sir, there are a total of 5,000 troops stationed in Sakhalin Island. If we want to take down this Eagle, the troops are somewhat insufficient. Should we ask General Xiong to dispatch troops to reinforce, or send a letter to General Cao?"

"no!"

As soon as he finished speaking, another captain retorted decisively, saying, "Sir, we have been stationed here for two years, and have no military achievements at all. We have been digging wasteland and building military industry all day long. If we ask for help now, we will be afraid that the superiors will have ideas. Even if we don't send someone to replace us, the credit book will be a bit shrill."

"Yes, Japan is ambitious and will never die invade our Ming Dynasty. The emperor is furious and vows to eradicate Japan! If we are timid at this time, maybe we can only stay here at that time, without any contribution!"

"But we only have five thousand people, and we will stay 2 thousand to guard the garrison. We can only take away three thousand people, only a dozen ships, and barely transport two cannons. How do we fight this? If we lose the battle and break the emperor's plan, it will be a big deal to blame!"

"What should we do? We can't stop fighting, right?"

"If we disobey, the Military Law Department will directly execute everyone above our lieutenant!"

Everyone argued and said something.

You Shiwei ignored them and kept looking at the chart. After they stopped, he said indifferently: "What does the information from the MIIS say?"

A commander raised his hand and said, "Sir, the current lord of the Hokkien is Matsumaki Gongguang, the second generation. He is forty years old this year. He is relatively cowardly, but he is very capable. The Hokkien is much stronger than the previous generation. Shigao is nominally 10,000, but the land is wide and the population is sparse, with a lot of supplies, and frequent trade. I am afraid that there are 40,000 to 500,000. The population is not easy to calculate, because it is a mixed residence and can be called. The Military Intelligence Department is estimated to be around 5,000 at most. Their vassal hall is in Fukuyama City. The city is not big, and a few cannons can explode, and it is across the sea from the Mu Aofan. The two vassals have close relationships. If our army conquers the Hokkien, the Mu Aofan will definitely rush to help..."

The crowd frowned when they heard this. So, why is this Eagle even harder to deal with?

"However," the captain added: "There are very few local areas of the Hokkaido to the civil wars of the vassal states, and there are also Mu Ao as a barrier. I believe that it is not good fortifications or mentality. If it is a surprise attack, it will be of great use!"

Everyone's eyes lit up, and they all looked at You Shiwei and said, "Sir, let's have a surprise attack. If Fukuyama City is taken down in one fell swoop, Mu Aofan will react and we will be confident enough to deal with it when they cross the sea again!"

"That's right, if they knew that it was my Ming Dynasty who sent troops, they would definitely hesitate. Maybe they would still remain calm. Please ask the Tokugawa Shogunate that the time in this is enough for us to gain a foothold!"

"Sir, General Cao has taken over as the Japanese envoy, and we have also received an order. Although it is for us to prepare, if we can investigate clearly in advance, it will definitely be a great achievement to take down the Ekima once the order arrives!"

"Sir, why not let us go further and secretly catch some of the Hokkien people and spy on more situations in the Hokkien situation, especially the route, for future use!"

You Shiwei has been in Liaodong for many years and has rich combat experience. He has also studied in the Military Academy. He is a very calm and energetic general.

He listened to the noisy people, and suddenly stood up and said in a deep voice: "The necessary preparations before the war must be sufficient. The information of the Military Intelligence Department must be carefully checked. In addition, we send people to sneak into the Hokkien to spy on the necessary information. Our soldiers are insufficient, so we must fight quickly and use blitzkrieg! Weapons, I have replied to General Cao, and will allocate enough gunpowder, ten cannons and a troop transport ship from North Korea... We must observe the weather closely. If there is heavy fog, it is the best opportunity to cover up our actions! The Hokkien will use some short muskets and armor to all soldiers. We Ming soldiers, each of which is very important and must not be easily damaged..."

"As for order!" A group of captains listened, and suddenly kept running, responding in a deep voice.

Everyone has a huge gaze and is excited.

Sakhalin Island was preparing quickly, and Cao Bianjiao's fleet soon arrived in North Korea and then went directly to Seoul.

After Cao Bianjiao met the King of South Korea, he had a brief reception and had a secret talk with Qin Yiming.

Qin Yiming has been stationed in North Korea for many years and has the deepest understanding of North Korea and Japan.

General's Mansion.

After some politeness, Qin Yi made the point and said: "The country of Japan is much stronger than decades ago. The Tokugawa shogunate controls more than Toyotomi Hideyoshi. If they invade North Korea again, our Ming Dynasty will pay a greater price and will not end immediately. This is quite unfavorable to the current situation of our Ming Dynasty..."

Cao Bianjiao was the commander of the imperial guards for six years and knew much more about the situation in the Ming Dynasty than Qin Yiming. The Ming Dynasty cannot accept a war without a schedule and needs to concentrate on dealing with internal affairs.

Cao Bianjiao nodded seriously and signaled Qin Yiming to continue.

Qin Yiming said: "The situation in Japan is like the feudal system in the Shang and Zhou dynasties. Although the Tokugawa shogunate could control it, its control was limited. It was not a unified country. The various vassal states had different thoughts and dared not speak out. Their secret methods emerged one after another. Their relationship was complicated, and even those insiders might not be able to see it clearly. In recent years, the MIIS, North Korean bases, North Korea and others have used different methods to infiltrate Japan. Now, Tsuma Island is already seventy-eight, and it is easy to take it down as a logistics base..."

Tsushima Island is between North Korea and Kowloon Island, and can attack and retreat or defend, which is indeed a good strategic location.
