The Resurrection of the South Seas of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 306 The Crisis in Macau
On the second day, the genius just dawned!

The few soldiers and horses who were going to go to the expedition began to bury the pot and make food to prepare for the expedition.

Wisps of cooking smoke curled up!

The rooster sings!

Zhu Hongyu opened his eyes, put on his clothes energetically and stood up, and then ordered the maid to change his clothes for him.

The regular clothes on his body were taken off, and after putting on the inner lining, he put on the armor.

The parts of the armor were put on Zhu Hongyu in order!

The dragon-pattern gold armor Zhu Hongyu wore was gorgeous and delicate, and it looked like a breeze when worn on Zhu Hongyu.

But its weight has reached an astonishing 70 kg!

It's just that Zhu Hongyu has a lot of strength, and wearing a 70-jin armor is not much different from wearing a thin coat.

After Zhu Hongyu took a few steps, the power of walking like a dragon and a tiger was highlighted.

In fact, when it comes to appearance, Zhu Hongyu is not the kind of feminine creamy niche, but his facial features are sharp and sharp, and his skin is still wheat-colored.

If you use a suitable word to describe it, it is heroic and tough!
Because of the power in his hands, the brows are full of confidence and high spirits!

In terms of appearance alone, Zhu Hongyu can be called excellent.

Coupled with his temperament, people can't help but pay attention to him, and feel that the heroes of the world are nothing but this!

Zhu Hongyu put on his armor and strode out of the room,
Outside the door, his guards were already waiting!

Surrounded by a group of imperial guards, Zhu Hongyu walked out of the Jian Guo mansion and rode towards the pier.

woo woo woo...

The low-pitched horn sounded, and the warships pulled anchor and raised their sails.

Zhu Hongyu boarded his ship, waved the flag, and the Ming army began to board the ship in an orderly manner.

Guards, marines, navy...

A large number of Ming troops boarded the ship continuously according to different establishments!
boom!Boom!

There was a sound of horns and guns in the dock, and the ships that had been boarded began to leave the port in an orderly manner.

Ships left the port one after another, stretching back and forth for several miles.

The shadow of the sail covered the sky, and the tall battleship exuded a faint coercion. The gun windows on the side of the ship were opened, revealing a door of black artillery.

Tall soldiers stood on both sides of the ship, and the sun shone on the armor, reflecting the dazzling light.

After the Ming army fleet consisting of hundreds of large and small ships left the port, merchant ships were also loaded with various supplies and sailed out of the port one after another.

Li Weiliang stood on the deck of his own merchant ship, looking at the fleet that was gradually going away, his eyes were full of fiery light.

"My Great Navy, how strong I am!"

"Is there any reason for this battle to be invincible?"

If Daming wins this battle, the amount of profit he will gain will be unimaginable.

Not only reselling spoils for the Ming army, but also providing various materials for the army to make a profit.

What's more, after this battle, his Li family left a good impression on His Highness Jian Guo!

That's real political capital!

The Qing Dynasty could have the Eight Great Imperial Merchants, but the Ming Dynasty might not be able to have it!

Thinking of this, Li Weiliang became very excited and ordered his own fleet to quickly catch up with the imperial fleet.

……

On the other hand, Hong Kong Island is already overcrowded at this time.

Due to Shang Kexi's indulgence, the Qing army in Guangzhou harmed the people recklessly.

A large number of people chose to flee to the control area of ​​Daming!

The population that Macau can accommodate is limited, and most of the people are diverted to Hong Kong.

Even though ships bring in supplies every day and transfer the population away, more and more people gather in Hong Kong.

Wang Youcai stood on the watchtower, looking at the bustling crowd of people outside the army camp, his face was full of worry.

"With so many people pouring in, I'm afraid there will be problems with the food and grass supply of our army!"

The deputy on the side spoke.

"Yes, Master Guard!"

"If the people are still pouring in at the current speed, even if there is still food coming from Qiongzhou and Luzon, our army's food and grass can last for another month at most."

You know, the grain and grass hoarded by the Liberation Army in the Hong Kong fortress are counted every year.

It can be seen how quickly the food and grass of the Liberation Army have been consumed recently!
Wang Youcai shook his head and said.

"I'm afraid I won't last a month!"

"Shang Kexi, the old thief Shang is already preparing to send troops to Macau, and Macau will definitely not be able to stop it at that time."

"When the population from Macau also floods into Hong Kong, our food and grass consumption will only be faster!"

The adjutant asked.

"Master Guard, is there no food in Macau?"

Wang Youcai nodded and said.

"There is food in Macau, but not much!"

"The imperial court had no intention of defending Macau, so it did not transport too much food to Macau."

The adjutant also asked with a worried face.

"In the face of Shang Kexi's actions, how is the imperial court going to deal with it?"

Wang Youcai opened his mouth to think deeply for a while, and then spoke.

"The Qing captives colluded with the foreign barbarians. The court's plan is to get rid of the Nanyang foreign barbarians first, and then concentrate on fighting the war in Guangdong when there is no more worries."

"Before that, we can shrink the line of defense!"

"Even after the people have evacuated from Hong Kong, we can even choose to abandon the Hong Kong fortress depending on the situation."

This kind of strategic level is top secret for most people.

But as long as you reach a certain level, the general strategy is no secret!

Wang Youcai felt that his adjutant was qualified to understand some strategies.

But after he finished talking about the strategic plan of the Liberation Army, he still couldn't help but confess.

"Remember not to spread the word!"

"Otherwise, once it affects the morale of the army, the military law will proceed!"

Hearing the words, the adjutant hurriedly assured him.

"I will understand at the end!"

Wang Youcai nodded slightly, at this moment, a messenger ran up from downstairs.

"Urgent report! Urgent report!"

"There is a change in the Qing army in Guangdong. It is still gratifying that the old thief Shang personally led the main force and rushed straight to Macau!"

"Macau is in danger!"

An anxious look appeared on Wang Youcai's face, and he spoke to the messenger.

"Explore and report again!"

"Notify the Macau side that if it is not feasible, immediately blow up the Fortress and the city wall of the fortress, and evacuate Macau!"

Wang Youcai gave the order very decisively, because he knew that Macau could not be defended.

A part of Macau is connected to the mainland, but the strength of the Restoration Army in Macau is only a few hundred people.

The main function is to maintain law and order and collect taxes!
The mighty tens of thousands of Qing troops overwhelmed the past, and there was absolutely no possibility of keeping Macau!
On the contrary, Hong Kong is an island, if there is a navy to connect it to the mainland, the Qing court will have nothing to do with them!
……

Outside Guangzhou!

During the Chinese New Year, it is still gratifying to indulge intentionally, so that the morale of the Qing troops deployed from Guangxi and Hunan has been maintained at a good level.

After the New Year's Eve, following Shang Kexi's order, the Qing army quickly marched towards Macau.

The huge army could not see its tail, and cavalry were galloping everywhere, covering the battlefield.

Tall banners fluttered in the wind, and a large number of civilians accompanied the army, escorting food, grass, military equipment, and weapons and armor for the Qing army.

The weight of the armor is too heavy, and a qualified set of armor weighs at least a few dozen catties. Soldiers generally don't wear armor unless it is in wartime.

Most of the auxiliary soldiers are responsible for marching with the armor on their backs for the soldiers!

The scale of the Qing army's expedition was very large, with a total of 4 horse infantry troops.

This is just soldiers!

There will only be more auxiliary soldiers and civilians, and it is no exaggeration to say that there are [-] troops.

The dark Qing army set out from Guangzhou and headed for Macau.

Shang Kexi's goal this time is not just a small Macau, he also plans to wipe out all the Ming troops in Leizhou, Dahao and other places.
