Xishan, Beijing, Command Center of the General Staff Headquarters of the Ming Dynasty.

In the huge hall, a huge world map is hung on a tall and wide wall. The staff are constantly marking red or blue arrows and dots on this huge map, and pasting the good map

It has become so dizzying that anyone who sees it at first glance will become dizzy. However, if people who really know the industry take a few more glances, the situation in today's world will become very clear.

The Ming Empire's left minister Zheng Guozhong, right minister Zhuge Weiyi, Minister of the Navy Zhuge Weiyong, Minister of War (Ministry of War) Liu Quanzhong, Chief of the Army Li Tieshan, Minister of Foreign Affairs Lin Zexu and several other important officials of the Ming Dynasty stood in front of this large map.

The newly appointed naval chief of staff, Zhuge Youmo, was holding a baton and explaining the current situation to these important officials of the Ming Dynasty.

Zheng Guozhong and Prime Minister Zheng stared at the stick carefully. As the Prime Minister of the Ming Dynasty's wartime cabinet and the leader of the Zheng family, of course he could not tell others that he was not interested in fighting. This kind of stick was covered with arrows, lines, and dots.

The situation map is like a bible to him. Especially Zhuge Youmo always talks about some strange places, such as the Andaman Sea, the Maluku Strait, and the Truksi Lake (Lagoon) in Hangzhou.

He is quite familiar with West Lake. He has a big house there! What is Truk West Lake (Lagoon)? Where is it? There is also a small "West Lake". How can it possibly hold an entire fleet of the Pacific Fleet?

However, with Zhuge Youmo's final summary, Zheng Guozhong finally understood the current situation.

The current situation looks very chaotic, but it is actually not complicated. It is to find the Indian fleet, the main force of the British Royal Navy. Find them out, beat them up first, and then encircle them from all directions and eliminate them all. The next step is to think about it.

It doesn't matter where you hit.

And this genius plan now encounters a small trouble - I don't know where the British Indian fleet has gone?

Five days ago, the main force of the Indian Grand Fleet took advantage of the darkness and quietly left the Port of Colombo, and then disappeared into the vast Indian Ocean. The first naval battle of the Western Fleet had long been lurking in the Great Strait. After getting the news

He then went out to search for the enemy one to two hundred nautical miles southeast of Ceylon Island. Admiral Li Chenghui of the Western Fleet even personally led the main force out of Temasek Base and marched westward to the Andaman Sea, pretending to attack Ceylon Island.

Lead the Indian fleet to the decisive battle.

However, Li Chenghui's large fleet wandered around the Andaman Sea for two days without seeing any trace of the British large fleet. As a last resort, he could only lead the main force of the Western Fleet out of the Shidu Strait and fight with the Western Fleet commanded by Major General Zhuge Yang.

The first flight battle merged and they approached the island of Ceylon together.

But the Indian Ocean Fleet still didn't show up

However, the General Staff did not place all its hopes on the Western Fleet. At the same time that Li Chenghui sent troops, Guan Taipei also received an order from the General Staff and commanded the Nanyang Fleet to split into two groups and leave the Brunei Bay base. Among them, Guan Taipei led the main force southward to the Strait of Malacca.

Near the east exit, Zhuge Yangyong, the commander of the aviation unit under Guan Tianpei, led the first naval battle of the Western Fleet to lurk in the Makassar Strait east of Borneo Island - there are also capable people in the General Staff, of course.

I would have thought that the British fleet might bypass Sumatra and then pass through the Lombok Strait or Sunda, enter the Java Sea, and attack the oil fields in southern Borneo.

However, Guan Tianpei and Zhuge Yangyong lurked for three or four days, but they did not find the main force of the British Indian Fleet. Planes and airships taking off from Sumatra Island wandered around the Indian Ocean every day, but they also found nothing. The Indian Ocean is really too big to search.

Come!

"Hey, if you can't find it, stop searching!"

After listening to Zhuge Youmo's introduction, Zheng Guozhong waved his hand and said: "Since your navy can't search such a large area, why are you doing all this useless work?"

"Prime Minister," Zhuge Wei, the Minister of the Navy, spread his hands, "then you can tell us what we should do?"

"We can take the initiative to attack!" Zheng Guozhong said, "Let the Western Fleet attack Ceylon, the Nanyang Fleet attack Java, the Pacific Fleet attack. It can be anywhere! Isn't it good that we have more ships? Then simply divide the troops into several.

I don’t believe that the British are really unmoved and watch our fleet take down Ceylon, Java, and those little bits and pieces in the South Pacific!”

After listening to Zheng Guozhong's words, Right Chancellor Zhuge Weiyi, Admiralty Minister Zhuge Weiyong, and Chief of Naval Staff Zhuge Youmo were all stunned. The three Zhuge military advisors had counted various things with their fingers.

They have calculated all the possibilities - even, they have calculated that the British fleet may make a big detour, bypassing the southern continent and entering Port Moresby, and then rest for a period of time before launching an attack in the direction of the Hawaiian Islands. So the three of them still

Zhuge Weidao sent a team to the Truk Lagoon just in case.

But now Prime Minister Zheng Guozhong and Zheng Da have come up with a way to disrupt the fists - beat the master to death with random punches! Isn't the British Empire just a master with insufficient strength? If you play tricks with him, he may be able to hold on for a while.

, if there was a random punch, the British Empire might be knocked down.

"With such a strategy, the siege will be broken!" At this time, Liu Quanzhong, the Minister of War, said with his beard, "If we fight randomly, can't the British concentrate their main force and fight with us?"

"Yes!" Zhuge Weiyang nodded, "They don't care which way we go, they just need to concentrate the main force and come all the way!"

Zhuge Weiyi said: "This is how we divide our troops and let the British unite to fight together!"

"Is this possible?" Liu Quanzhong asked.

Zhuge Youmo said: "I think it's okay. The British people concentrated their troops in India, which is probably what they had in mind! We might as well play a trick and give them a chance!"

"Can we win?" Zheng Guozhong asked.

"It's okay to lose both sides!" Zhuge Youmo said confidently, "We use one-third of the main force to fight against all their elites. If we defeat both sides, we still have the other two-thirds available, which is enough to take down Java Island and

Australia!”

Zhuge Weiyi added: "And our shipbuilding capabilities have far surpassed those of the British. There is nothing to be afraid of if we destroy a large fleet. The worst is to build it again!"

Zheng Guozhong glanced at his think tank Lin Zexu. Lin Zexu nodded and said: "Players who have big capital and are not afraid of losing can always take advantage of the poker table. Besides, our poker skills are not bad either."

"It makes sense!" Zheng Guozhong said with a smile, "That's the truth!"

He is already familiar with playing cards.

Zhuge Weiyong nodded towards Zhuge Youmo, and Zhuge Youmo said: "In that case, order the Western Fleet to attack Ceylon Island! Order the two teams of the South Sea Fleet to meet in the Java Sea and attack Java together! As for

Pacific Fleet. You can ask Zhuge Daozi for his opinion. The Pacific Fleet is the main force in this battle, and Australia is the main attack. You still have to listen to Daozi himself on how to fight."

Zhuge Weiyong nodded and said: "Then send electricity to Zhuge Daozi and ask him how he wants to fight? Should we recall his first flight battle and attack Australia together?"
