In the cabin, Mr. Zhao finally tasted the three flavors from the memorials taken out by Lin Run.

"Zhongcheng said that there is the shadow of Wuyangtong Trading Hall behind this?" He couldn't help but frown slightly. It seemed that this large business that gathered the interests of Portuguese and Guangdong maritime merchants had a greater appetite than the information showed.

"I'm just guessing." Lin Run pinched the corners of her hairy eyes and said, "You may not know that they have been lobbying very actively in the past two years, saying that Hao Jingao is located in a remote place, hoping to allow Folang Jiyi to move to Tuen Mun Island so as to better protect Guangzhou Bay."

"I'm fucking fucking fucking!" Zhao Hao suddenly made a rare swear word, which scared Lin Run.

"Why are you so responsive?" Lin Run smiled and said, "It's not a day or two that they planned to do Tuen Mun Island. The first time the Florians came to the Ming Dynasty, wasn't they just captured Tuen Mun Island? They just turned around and lost the Tuen Mun Sea Battle and were driven away by us."

Zhao Hao thought to himself that anyone who chooses a port as a base between Hong Kong and Macau will choose the former instead of the latter. Without it, the innate conditions are too far apart.

So Portugal began to plot against Hong Kong Island, but lost completely in the Naval Battle of Tuen Mun. Then he settled down and turned to Macau with relatively weak government control.

Now that they have gained a foothold in Macau, and have captured Guangdong officials with self-satisfaction, they will of course be greedy and start the idea of ​​Hong Kong Island again.

But in another period of history, Zhao Hao has never seen the Portuguese and Lin Hongzhong's move again from historical materials. Could it be that it is because of the changes he brought about?

That's true.

During a hunting operation two years ago, the Coast Guard fleet captured the Portuguese smuggling fleet, including their flagship "Duke of Goa" and the latest Garen ship "Beauty of the Orient". It was detained for a full year.

Although the two sides later signed a treaty, the Portuguese redeemed their two treasure sporting sailboats at the cost of recognizing the Jiangnan Group's monopoly on trade with Japan and ensuring that they would not cross the north of Ryukyu.

But both sides knew very well that the treaty was only temporary and there would be a battle after the three-year period expired!

So the Portuguese have been preparing for the war in a intensive manner. So changing to a qualified military port that is easy to defend and difficult to attack naturally became their top priority.

Because as the name suggests, Haojingao is shaped like an oyster, and the coastline is as smooth as a mirror, there is no place to be a military port at all. This can be seen from the fact that Zeng Yiben's pirate fleet can easily invade Haojingao Pier.

That's why they started to start the idea of ​​Tuen Mun Island again!

Unexpectedly, they met Lin Zhongcheng who could not be corrupted, and Lin Run, who was injected with the mind of Mr. Zhao, was full of thoughts on saving the nation, and their wishful thinking was naturally lost.

Seeing that the governor's yamen was clear and refused to rent Tuen Mun Island for them, the man who had no curse was chanted. But the comprador had a solution, and Lin Hongzhong took his mind to Yin Zhengmao, who was still the governor of Guangxi at the time. Yin Zhengmao's reputation for love for money was well known to the household. General Lin served a lot of sponsorships, so he naturally became his guest of honor.

Lin Hongzhong originally wanted to influence Beijing through Yin Zhengmao to see if the court could directly issue an order to rent Tuen Mun Island to the Wuyangtong Trading Hall, which actively donated funds.

Unexpectedly, by chance, Yin Zhengmao took advantage of the great victory and was promoted to the Governor of Guangdong and Guangxi. Now it’s not necessary to alarm Beijing, it can be done!

"After the beginning of the New Year, Lin Hongzhong has been running between the provincial capital and Zhaoqing, just busy with this matter." Lin Run said with a sore back under the event: "Although I strongly oppose it, the governor is in charge of military affairs, the governor is in charge of civil affairs, and if Yin Butang really wants to rent it, I can't stop it. As soon as this memorial was posted, this matter basically happened."

Zhao Hao nodded. The people living on Tuen Mun Island were all descendants of the bandits and the bandits and soldiers, so based on the article "to migrate the people banished from the coast to the mainland", they could be moved away and the Tuen Mun Island was vacated for the red-haired ghosts.

The patrol officers divide the land to prevent the governor's yamen from interfering.

Let’s look at the third article, ‘Boldly borrow foreign soldiers and recruit maritime merchants to join the official navy’, which is simply tailor-made for Portugal and Lin Hongzhong. They can immediately obtain official identities based on this article.

At that time, the Portuguese could be imitated by Doyenwei, Jianzhouwei, and a Tuen Mun Thousand House Office, and legitimately stationed at Tuen Mun Island. If Lin Hongzhong was allowed to serve as the Thousand House, he could pass the imperial court with the least movement.

Once they have an official identity, how can Zhao Hao's coast guard troops attack Tuen Mun Island? The red-haired ghost will be invincible!

As for why Lin Daoqian was specifically pointed out and the establishment of the Nan'ao deputy general was 80% of the intention to target the Jiangnan Group. If Lin Daoqian in Chaoyang was completely incorporated and heavy troops were set up on Nan'ao Island, it would be able to control the Taiwan Strait, which would completely block the coast guard fleet from moving south.

What, dare to attack the Nan'ao General Office? Can't you rebel? If you don't need the Folang Ji to take action, the court will destroy them!

Although the governor must have made a comprehensive consideration when he came to this coastal defense program and would not deliberately target Zhao Hao. How much hatred should he be? How much can Yin Zhengmao take such a ruthless move against his little countryman?

But this plan is indeed too targeted, and it is helping the red-haired ghost realize its strategic intentions everywhere and lock the passage of the coast guard fleet southward. It is hard not to doubt how many private goods did the people who helped Yin Zhengmao draft this plan?

Of course, it is also possible that Yin Zhengmao was angry that Zhao Erye had disturbed his layout, so he came up with this plan to disgust him. Let Zhao Hao and his son know who is the master of Guangdong and Guangxi, and knocked on Mr. Zhao's snatch.

But this would be a bit persecuted and feel good about himself. Yin Zhengmao is now a dignified governor, and he has the opportunity to argue with him. He doesn't need to use this kind of coastal defense strategy presented to the court to deal with him and his son.

It’s not necessary to do it, it’s really not necessary.

After thinking about it, someone still secretly messed with the sand, and the possibility of a fox pretending to be a tiger is even greater.

Mr. Zhao calmed down and stopped speculating. Because no matter what the situation was, the Portuguese and Wuyangtong Trading Hall exerted influence on the Governor's Office and successfully integrated their intentions into the Governor's grand strategy of coastal defense. This is an indisputable fact.

So it’s enough to be lenient for the enemy, so there’s no need to think about it so much.

"It's interesting to have a wrist, it's fun to have such an opponent." After thinking about this section, he smiled brightly on the corner of his mouth and said, "Chief Zhongcheng knows how lonely Wudi is."

"I believe you have a ghost. Who doesn't expect the weaker your opponent, unless your brain gets in water." Lin Run smiled and cursed, "Since you know that they are coming to you, what are you going to do?"

"I just found out less than a minute, so where is there any constitution?" Zhao Hao bowed with a wry smile and said, "Chief, don't keep it in hiding, please ask me."

"Okay." Lin Run nodded, stood up and walked to the coastal defense map on the wall, and found Hokkien Ao and Tuen Mun Island.

The two peninsulas are like two cows' horns, facing each other from afar across Guangzhou Bay.

"Are you interested in eating Tuen Mun Island?" After a long time, Lin Runyouyou asked.

"Uh..." Zhao Hao stood up and stood behind him, looking at Tuen Mun Island, and drooled secretly. That is the gateway to Hong Kong, the Pearl River Delta.

"Can you not think about it? Is it greedy for dreams?" There was no need to hide it with Lin Zhongcheng. He swallowed first, and then smiled bitterly: "But the rice must be eaten one by one. If you have too much steps, you will get the eggs. If you don't take down Ryukyu and clear the sea lords of Fujian and Guangdong, how can my fleet go south? Without the protection of the fleet, even if the Zhongcheng is rowed for me, I can't take it."

"That's right." Lin Run nodded and said, "I also want you to send someone to take it from the land first. It seems that I think it's simple."

"Zhongcheng didn't think it was simple, but he thought it was too great." Zhao Hao smiled and said, "Actually, I am just an ordinary person and I can't violate the basic rules."

"Haha, yes, I'll treat you like a goblin." Lin Run laughed loudly, and then said in a deep voice: "How long will it take?"

"If everything goes well, it will be the end of the year at the earliest." Lin Run's question was completely unstoppable, but Zhao Hao answered very simply. "The sea lords in Fujian and Guangdong are all local tyrants, so it's not difficult to defeat them, but they just find a corner and we can't find it. Once we pass, they emerge again and suddenly come to us, and it's very uncomfortable."

"Yes." Lin Run nodded, holding his right arm with his left hand and holding his chin with his right hand. He looked at the long and thin coastline in Fujian and Guangdong, and said for a while: "That's quite fast."

"That's right." Zhao Hao echoed and gave Lin Run another shot and said, "But I'm optimistic, but who can tell you this kind of thing accurately? Maybe one will not go well and I won't handle it next year."

"You must do it for me before the spring of next year!" Lin Run took a picture of the map and said decisively: "The focus of Yinbutang this year is definitely on quelling Lan Yiqing and Lai Yuanjue's rebellion. I'll find a way to help you delay until the end of the year, which should be no problem!"

"I understand." Zhao Hao nodded slowly and said, "I will do my best."

"There must not be allowed to get Tuen Mun Island." Lin Run said firmly: "Although the land in the Ming Dynasty is too much, it cannot be missing at all! It must not be given up during my tenure!"

"Yes!" Zhao Hao responded with a stern expression, and this time there were more voices. "Please ensure that the task is completed!"

"Okay!" Lin Run turned his head and patted his shoulder and said, "I'll help you watch Tuen Mun Island, but Lin Dao Qian and Nam O Island can only be defended by you."

"Don't worry, Zhongcheng, I've already received a vaccine on Lin Daoqian." Zhao Hao thought of something and couldn't help laughing: "The more Governor Yin's men win him over, the more he's afraid he's going to hug my thighs."

"Oh, is that?" Lin Run felt relieved when he heard this, and suddenly laughed: "If he could really follow you wholeheartedly, you can help him make some military achievements, and then ask your father-in-law for help and help him become the deputy general of South Australia. Wouldn't it be a dilemma?"

"I am really wise and inequality!" Zhao Hao immediately applauded with admiration: "Why didn't I expect such a wonderful idea?"

"Stop coming!" Lin Run blankly his eyes, and the two of them looked at each other and laughed.

The laughter was so passionate that it seemed as if nothing in this world could defeat them.
Chapter completed!
