Seeing Zhu Jun's confident look, Zhu Yuanzhang became even more worried, "No, your ships are not enough to carry 30,000 people.
It is still easy to be discovered by taking the land route, but most of the naval forces are inland and cannot easily move.
It is an indisputable fact that we in Daye have fewer ships. Although we have been building ships continuously over the years, it is still not enough. "
"Dad, I have my own way of doing this, so you don't have to worry about it." Zhu Jun said, "Even if we can't fight, I'll be able to support Fourth Brother at any time when I go to the north!"
"Yes, the fourth brother is under a lot of pressure." Zhu Yuanzhang stroked his beard, "Remember, if you are not sure, don't act rashly. You can also take a step back and go to your fourth brother!"
Zhu Jun nodded, not because he was trying to make a fool of himself, but because it was indeed very difficult for the great cause now.
The three major organizations under his command have not only taken root in Daye, but in the past two years, they have also reached out to other countries, so he is quite well-informed.
Lao Zhu was also under a lot of pressure, otherwise, Zhu Sha would not have been assigned to his side.
There are no eggs left after the nest is overturned. As the king of Wu who has great cause, he feels that he must bear his own responsibility.
Doing your best for the country does not conflict with being free.
Zhu Yuanzhang was still worried. He talked a lot and finally said: "Forget it, forget it, you can still suppress the bandits. If you can suppress the pirates in Ningbo Prefecture, it will be the greatest help to us!"
Zhu Jun knew very well that it was not that Lao Zhu looked down upon him, but that he was really worried that he would be injured, and Daye could not afford to fail at this juncture.
"Dad, I want to suppress the bandits, and I want to do the Northern Expedition!" Zhu Jun took a deep breath and said.
Zhu Yuanzhang paced around, then took the map, spread it out and said: "We are still worried, we can't get through by land. If we want to make a surprise attack, we must go by water. This is Meng Yuan's weakness.
But it doesn't mean that they don't have a navy. Their navy was formed with the help of Gao Li.
Secondly, the landing from Xingcheng was more than 600 miles away from Yingchang. Even with a forced march, it would take three to five days to arrive.
If you can't open up the situation quickly when you get to Yingchang, and if your whereabouts are exposed, you will most likely be dumped!
So, not safe.
Cavalry is your weakness, and we haven't given you many horses.
Therefore, this battle is very dangerous. If you want to defeat Yingchang or drive away the opponent, it is almost impossible! "
Zhu Yuanzhang asked himself that among all the emperors, his combat ability was ranked first, so he looked at the problem very thoroughly.
The location of Yingchang was well chosen. It is close enough to go south, and if you step back you can go north. Moreover, they also occupy a large piece of land to the east. As long as you give them time, they will still make a comeback.
Zhu Jun smiled and said, "How can you know if it works if you don't try it?"
"You bastard, do you think you're just playing house?" Zhu Yuanzhang angrily hit him on the head, "Your elder brother taught you a lot of principles, and we also gave you a lot of lessons, but he didn't teach you marching. In a war, once you lose, escaping is a small matter, but being captured is a big deal. You are the commander of an army, how can you not think about your subordinates?
I take back what I just said. You should just go ahead and suppress the bandits. The Northern Expedition is put on hold and we will find a way to deal with it! "
"Dad, I really have a way." Zhu Jun said: "Although I dare not say that I am sure of it, I am still 60% sure."
Zhu Yuanzhang frowned, "What can I do?"
"Have you forgotten how I brought Wang Baobao's family out?" Zhu Jun said with a smile: "Since I can rescue Wang Baobao without anyone noticing, then I naturally have a way to defeat Yingchang!"
Zhu Yuanzhang never asked about this matter in detail, but he knew that Zhu Jun had a special force under his command, so he immediately asked: "Could it be that you want to carry out an assassination?"
Zhu Jun clicked his tongue. As expected of Lao Zhu, he guessed what he was thinking before he even finished speaking.
"That's right, since the enemy is outnumbered and we are outnumbered, why should we attack hard? Isn't it good to fight in a roundabout way?" Zhu Jun said: "Soldiers are also crafty, relying on surprise.
We are not in the Warring States Period now. If we want to start a war, we have to declare a challenge in advance and prepare various excuses to attack.
If the key figures of Meng Yuan can be assassinated, the enemy will be severely damaged. "
Zhu Yuanzhang did not speak, but seriously thought about the feasibility of Zhu Jun's method, "Do I need the help of the Arch Guard Department?"
"No need, the Guards Department is secretly there, but Meng Yuan also has his own secret service, so he must be targeting us.
After Wang Baobao's family escaped, didn't Ying Chang start to crack down hard internally?
They thought they were spies from the Imperial Guard, but that was not the case! "
"Can the special forces you specially trained really work?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked again.
Seeing Lao Zhu’s misunderstanding, Zhu Jun did not explain, but followed his words and said: “Since we are special forces, we must perform special tasks.
Their purpose is to kill the enemy and spy on intelligence at the minimum cost.
To be honest with you, I modeled this special forces unit on the Guards Division, and I asked Jiang Huan for advice on many issues. "
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded. In his opinion, the so-called special forces are an extension of scouts. In fact, scouts can also be regarded as special forces in the army.
He didn't say much, and his inner anxiety also eased a lot.
Since this kid can rescue Wang Baobao's family, maybe he can really mess up Ying Chang.
"Dad, just let me try. If it doesn't succeed, I won't take action rashly. In this way, in the eyes of the enemy, it will just be people from the Guards Department causing trouble!"
Zhu Yuanzhang glared at him, "You do things and let the Arch Guard take the blame for you!"
"Isn't this a surprise? It's a strategy!" Zhu Jun laughed dryly, "At worst, I can just give some of the credit to the brothers in the Arch Guard Department. I'm not that stingy person!"
Zhu Yuanzhang said: "Do you have enough time? I rushed over eight hundred miles away. It will take at least ten days before I receive the news."
"I know it well, so don't leave the ink mark." After saying that, Zhu Jun said goodbye and left.
This time, Zhu Yuanzhang sent Zhu Jun to the palace gate for the first time, "You kid, don't you want to make any request?"
Zhu Jun smiled, "Comrade Lao Zhu, I have to criticize you. When I work for my family, do I have to make some demands and get some benefits?"
You have a problem with your thinking. Do you look down on your son?
Do you think your son is the kind of person who doesn't let go of the rabbit in sight? "
Zhu Yuanzhang said a little embarrassedly: "Either we look down on you, or..."
"What is that?" Zhu Jun waved his hand, "Come on, there is a generation gap between you and me, so we can't communicate. Please reply first and wait for my good news!"
Looking at his son's leaving figure, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but smile bitterly and shake his head, "This bastard is really sensible!"
Firstly, he was worried about Zhu Jun's safety, and secondly, he felt a little ashamed.
It can be said that among all the sons, he gave Zhu Jun the least help.
