In order to reduce the casualties of the Ming army, we still can't act too hastily, and don't think about eating them in one bite.
We can take multiple attacks and use a powerful navy to block them, so that they can't look at each other from head to tail and fight on their own.
After all, Japan is not monolithic, and there will definitely be differences or even splits within them soon.
Daming can also take advantage of their division, let the little Japanese dog bite the dog to kill each other, and when they are exhausted, they will suddenly launch a strike to destroy the country in one fell swoop. "
Zheng Chenggong's suggestion made Li Dingguo and Xia Wanchun's eyes shine, and they gave Zheng Chenggong's suggestion a thumbs up.
"Your Majesty, what Zheng Dudu said is very true, and I agree with his tactics."
Li Dingguo is also a famous general of the generation, and can be said to be a figure of the God of War in the late Ming Dynasty.
It's just that he is not good at water warfare, and he doesn't know much about Little Japan.
Xia Wanchun was not a literati. When he fought against the captives in the East, he also charged forward, and was finally captured and sacrificed heroically.
They have known Zheng Chenggong for a while, and they didn't know the emperor's eyesight until today.
The reason why he was able to hand over the Ming Navy to the young Zheng Chenggong.
That means that the emperor had long discovered Zheng Chenggong's excellence and his talent and loyalty.
Zhu Youjian also nodded slightly to Zheng Chenggong's suggestion:
"Well, what Ai Qing said is very true."
After Zhu Youjian finished speaking, he said to the eunuch outside:
"Come here, Sun Chengzong, Minister of the Ministry of War, Qi Jiguang, Governor of the Five Armies, Sun Chuanting, Chief Assistant of the Cabinet, Huang Degong, Zhang Huangyan and other military officers and six ministers came to Qianqing Palace to see me."
"According to the purpose"
The servant eunuch agreed, and immediately sent someone to spread the civil and martial arts.
It was working time now, and all the main yamen of Ming Dynasty were within the Meridian Gate, and soon all the civil and military officials came to Qianqing Palace.
When all the civil and military personnel arrived, they found that Zheng Chenggong, Li Dingguo, Xia Wanchun and others were all there.
The three of them were important ministers of the Ming Dynasty, and the others didn't think too much, and hurried forward to see the emperor.
"See Your Majesty."
Zhu Youjian waved his hand lightly:
"Exemption, flat body! Grant a seat!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty, long live my emperor!"
Seeing everyone seated, Zhu Youjian said:
I have already decided that the Shenji Battalion of the New Army will stay in the capital, and the Qi Family Army, Long Teng Army, Long Banner Army and Daming Navy will send troops to Japan.
All armies are ready to set off in three days. All departments must closely cooperate with this battle against Japan to ensure the army's logistical support and supplies, which can only be more or less.
If it is found that the army's logistics supply is insufficient due to human factors, it will affect the army's combat effectiveness.
I don't care who you are or what department you are in, you must be dealt with strictly. If you are serious, you will be executed across the board, or even exterminate your family. "
Zhu Youjian's words immediately made all the civil and military officials present tremble.
They all knew the emperor's methods, and hurriedly knelt down on the ground:
"According to the purpose"
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, all departments will cooperate closely to provide the army with full and timely logistical supplies, and nothing will affect the army's operations."

Chapter 692 Crossing the Tsushima Strait
Chapter 692 Crossing the Tsushima Strait
Zhu Youjian summoned the chief generals of the Ming army and the chief officials of various security departments to hold a military meeting to launch a war against Japan.
The fighting power of the Ming army was very strong, and Zhu Youjian did not mobilize them.
As the saying goes, soldiers and horses go first before food and grass are moved. He first warned the logistics support department to closely cooperate with the three-way army.
Then he got up and walked to the wall. Seeing the emperor standing up, other civil servants and generals all stood up and followed the emperor.
Zhu Youjian looked back at the civil servants and generals, and with a big wave of his hand, a map of Japan appeared on the wall.
"Suck……"
Seeing the emperor's operation, the ministers all gasped.
Zhu Youjian didn't care about their thoughts at all now. With a thought, a smooth and straight wooden stick appeared in his hand.
Pointing to a map of Japan with his stick, he said:
"Japan consists of more than 3000 islands including Hokkaido, Honshu, Shikoku, Kyushu, the Four Islands and the Ogasawara Islands and the Northern Four Islands.
The area is 377800 square kilometers, which is equivalent to 1/26 of China, and is similar to the area of Yunnan Province in my country.
Hokkaido Island is located in the northern part of Japan, with an area of 83km453.57. It faces Honshu Island across the Tsugaru Strait, surrounded by the sea, surrounded by the Pacific Ocean, the Sea of Okhotsk and the Sea of Japan. .
Honshu Island, located in the middle of the Japanese archipelago, extends from northeast to southwest for about 1300 kilometers in length, 50 to 230 kilometers in width, and 5 kilometers in coastline. Its total area is 450 square kilometers, accounting for 230% of the total area of Japan.
Shikoku Island is located in the south of the Chugoku region in the southwest of Honshu, and the northeast of Kyushu, separated from Honshu by the Seto Inland Sea.Together with the islands, the area is about 18800 square kilometers.
Kyushu Island is located at the southwestern tip of Japan, facing Honshu Island across the Kanmon Strait to the northeast, and facing Shikoku Island across the Fengyu Strait and Bungo Channel to the east.
It faces the Pacific Ocean in the southeast, neighbors South Korea across the Korean Strait in the northwest, and faces Daming in the west across the Yellow Sea and East China Sea.The area is about 3.79 square kilometers.
I have ordered Lu Aiguo to lead the North Korean soldiers across the Tsushima Strait and storm Tsushima Island.
The Tsushima Strait is the only channel exit from Japan to the East China Sea, the Yellow Sea, and the Pacific Ocean.
People call it the "throat" that enters and exits the Sea of Japan, and its strategic location for transportation is very important. ?
The North Korean soldiers led by Lu Aiguo should be able to easily cross the Tsushima Strait and capture Tsushima Island.
After capturing Tsushima Island, they took Iki Island with all their strength, and then landed on Kyushu Island, Japan from the west end.
The island of Kyushu is very large, and there are many Japanese vassal states, such as the Satsuma vassal, are located near Kyushu Island.
Li Dingguo led the Daming Dragon Banner Army and the Zhang Huangyan Department of the Navy, and then supported Lu Aiguo in Kyushu. "
