Before, the ministers thought that the emperor would definitely celebrate, but they never thought that Wanli had issued an order to cancel all activities during the New Year.

But they were very stupid and naive to think that Wanli was self-aware and knew that this was not something to celebrate.

They really sneered at this, and there were even many people impeaching Ye Mengxiong to avenge private revenge, and blamed Guo Dan for the Ningxia Rebellion and the Bozhou Rebellion. It was because Guo Dan destroyed the court system and the ritual system, which led to the disagreement of our monarch and ministers, which gave the people of worship and others the opportunity to take advantage of it.

This also contains innuendo, and by the way, criticized Wanli.

We have to admit that these ministers are really amazing. They have experienced the tempering of eight-legged essays. They analyzed this matter from various angles and made some truths.

In fact, this is the skill that can be tested in the science exam. One short sentence can be written by a hundred candidates.

They were not afraid of offending the emperor. It was more popular in the Ming Dynasty to punish him. Many ministers really did not do anything for power or profit, but for fame.

If you don’t say a few words to the emperor, you will seem incompetent.

Of course, they only have this ability.

Unfortunately, there was no interaction and Wanli did not see them. The memorials handed over were all dead, as if they were entertaining themselves.

But they also had a lot of fun.

Just be happy.

Until the first day of the Lunar New Year.

It was early in the morning when everyone had just gotten up and was about to worship ancestors and Buddhas, when the eunuchs in the rituals came to knock on the door.

A beautiful memorial was presented.

It was the gift given to them by the emperor.

This is really unique.

But there is no surprise, only disgust.

Suddenly, the joy of the New Year disappeared without a trace.

Only then did everyone realize that this matter was far from over, and the emperor remembered it in his heart.

The real success or failure is this year, not last year.

Some ministers think they have a clear conscience and just laugh it off. At the same time, many ministers are frightened and afraid that the emperor will liquidate them.

The calm atmosphere in the capital city is actually undercurrents.

At this time, the South China Sea is in sharp contrast with the capital. The capital is white, while the South China Sea is sunny, and the capital is undercurrents. Everything on the South China Sea is floating on the sea.

The undercurrent has passed here.

Boom boom boom boom!

Bang bang bang bang!

Accompanied by the sound of artillery, the Battle of Penghu has begun.

Martin, the governor of Luzon, led a five thousand army to invade Penghu from the Dagou Port (Kaohsiung Port).

They landed in the Dog Harbor very smoothly. After all, there are some natives in the local area. Although they are strong people, they still find it difficult to resist the Franchis army with strong ships and powerful guns.

However, when they attacked Tainan, they encountered a very tenacious sniper attack.

"Impossible! This is impossible!"

Martin shouted to his adjutant with an excited expression: "Just those wild monkeys, they can only play with bamboo. We have seen this, how could they have muskets?"

The deputy said, "Governor General, we have indeed encountered a very powerful army. They have a large number of muskets and are strict in military discipline, which is completely different from the enemies we encountered before. Could this be the Ming Dynasty sent troops to rescue?"

“This is even more impossible.”

Martin said excitedly: "If the Ming Dynasty sent troops to Penghu, we would not know nothing. Go and find out for me immediately. I don't want to fight a war where I don't even know who the enemy is."

"yes."

They don’t know yet that they are facing elite troops from Japan. In a few months, they pretended to be Japanese pirates and quietly entered the Penghu area to station. Originally, this vanguard army was going to invade North Korea.

It was just because after learning about the Tianjin Guard's combat plan, Governor Konishi immediately asked Toyotomi Hideyoshi to go south to capture Penghu first, and invade the Ming Dynasty with a side-level leader, which made it difficult for the Ming Dynasty to take care of the beginning and end.

And President Xiaoxi came here to direct.

"Sir, the opponent is obviously not prepared enough, this is the best time for us to counterattack."

An officer walked towards Xiaoxi.

"We are not here to fight against the Franjimen." Governor Xiaoxi shook his head and said, "If I can unite with the Franjimen, then we will have enough strength to invade the Ming Dynasty from the south and force the Ming Dynasty to dispatch troops to defend. In this way, they will find it difficult for them to worry about North Korea. As long as the Ming Dynasty does not send troops, North Korea will not be able to withstand our army at all. When we can occupy North Korea, the lord will settle in the Central Plains in the future, and in the future, it will be just around the corner."

Just then, a warrior got into the tent, "Sir, half a month ago, our people discovered that they had a fleet set out from Zhangzhou and were about to arrive in Luzon."

"Bound Wei and save Zhao! It seems that the news we learned is not wrong!"

President Xiaoxi laughed and reminded his subordinates: "We will soon start negotiations with the Franji people. During this period, you must treat the residents here well and make them think that we are here to help them. There is a saying in the Central Plains that is good to win the hearts of the people and win the world. If the hearts of the people here are towards us, even if we cooperate with the Franji people at that time, they will not be able to take Penghu from us."

"Hi!"

......

Manila!

On the port, a blonde Franco man looked at a large fleet in the distance and immediately shouted to his companions: "Look, what is that?"

His companion couldn't help but scold, "Damn it, where did this fleet come from?"

They were panicked.

Because it is the most empty time in Manila, if you encounter an attack at this time, you will be really unlucky!

The port was mobilized immediately.

After the fleet approached, a big cannibal said, "Don't worry, that's Mr. Wu's fleet."

The Franjiman asked again: "Are you sure?"

"Sure."

The big cannibal nodded.

"This damn businessman is so scary."

Franjiman breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Call someone to notify Mr. Wu."

"yes."

But soon, they realized that something was wrong, because the fleet suddenly unfolded, not as if it was about to shore, but as if it was...!

"Not good! It's the enemy, it's the enemy."

Franjiren, who was familiar with the naval battle, suddenly woke up and shouted frantically.

But it's too late.

On the deck.

A pregnant woman with a big belly looked at the port not far away and ordered: "Fire!"

Before he finished speaking, an old woman walked out and said, "Okay, okay, you have been so powerful, so go in quickly."

“……!”

The pregnant woman closed her eyes slightly and asked, "Mapo, why are you not afraid that I will kill you?"

Mapo laughed and said, "Have you ever seen a pregnant woman kill the only stable woman around her? I can warn you that having a baby is very painful. If you offend me, I will make you feel even more painful."

Pregnant woman is timid!

Boom boom boom boom!

The defenders at the port were staring blankly at a row of flying black shells, landing accurately around them.

No hit.

But this sudden attack scared the guards at the port to death.

Several Franco robots immediately organized soldiers to fight back.

Boom boom boom boom!

The port's artillery immediately fired a round of cannons to strike back.

The hit rate is also very touching.

The artillery is still so embarrassing these days.

The two sides did not even have an ant killed after going back and forth.

But the scene was extremely lively.

However, at this moment, a cavalry composed of dozens of people suddenly broke out to the south of the port. Although the number was extremely limited, the guards at the port did not expect that there was an enemy army hidden here.

This is a life-threatening person!

The deputy governor of Manila, Primo, seemed to be disturbed by the movements from the port and led his men to the city wall.

"Damn it, what the hell is that?"

As soon as he arrived on the city wall, Primo had no time to turn his eyes to the port, he saw thick smoke rising from the Han residential area in the distance.
