While Li Ying was calculating his profits, Wu Dahai, on the First Fleet, fell into deep thought as he looked at the latest military orders of the General Staff.

Looking at the group of staff who were writing and painting, Wu Dahai couldn't help but look at the Nai Chart: "Driving the second route? The Pacific Empire plan? Did these cabinets really agree?"

The Chief of Staff smiled: "I guess he was scared of his majesty's anti-corruption campaign. After all, few people can climb to this position and they are clean."

Wu Dahai hummed disdainfully: "It's better to be a pure person, but how do you think of this squadron configuration?"

The Chief of Staff looked at the chart and pondered: "New Hang Road, New World, and also need to establish a forward base. According to the information provided by the Jinyiwei, there are only natives in the local area, so there is no need to pay too much attention to military force.

However, if you want to build a few strongholds, you probably need to prepare a large amount of supplies.

My suggestion is to divide three gunboats as escorts, divide ten ships from the logistics fleet, recruit sixty merchant ships, and purchase supplies from here to go south.

According to the General Staff, we must arrive one and a half to two months in advance, and then establish a forward base in the local area to select a good base for the people of the reclamation company.

This big island has four reclamation points, two in the north and south. Then, here, there are two reclamation points at the northernmost end of the southern continent, and then you need to find two reclamation points at the two points, and then complete a cruise along the mainland, and find ten more points at the right location."

Wu Dahai was a little embarrassed: "If we release 1,000 people at each of these sixteen immigration sites, it will be 16,000, and half of our people will go.

If you release five hundred yuan, you are afraid that too many local natives will attack the immigration site, how can you solve this problem?"

The Chief of Staff had a narrative about this: "We don't need to develop all immigration sites at the beginning. You see, according to the Pacific Empire plan, the first phase of the reclaiming site is the four points on the Great Island of New Guinea and two points on the Southern Continent.

Among them, we can set up a large battalion at this point at the southern end of the island, garrisoning three thousand troops, leaving a gunboat and several transport ships.

The remaining five points, each of which is 500 troops. Although 500 people are at risk of being attacked, with the indigenous military strength, even if tens of thousands of people are besieged, 500 people will protect themselves.

As long as a certain breeding point is attacked, troops can be sent from the camp to rescue. Two thousand troops and a gunboat are enough to face all nearby enemies.

Then the squadron continued to go south, explore the southern continent, and circled back, and the people from the reclamation company arrived. At that time, in addition to the two thousand troops stationed in the camp ready for rescue at any time, we can withdraw 3,500 troops.

The ten people went south to handle the same procedure, setting up a large camp and nine strongholds of five hundred garrisons.

After this calculation, we will divide two groups of 10,000 people to complete the plan."

Wu Dahai touched his chin: "You said this and it is indeed much more secure. It is more reliable than garrisoning the troops at points. You wise minds are just lively.

Then it's time for the Chief of Staff to make a plan, but why did you send two regiments? Instead of sending one brigade directly? This time we brought two marine brigades, and it wouldn't be right to send one to stay one."

The Chief of Staff smiled and said, "That's not OK. This does not conform to the principle of sending troops from the General Staff. You don't have to worry about this, I will arrange it.

Moreover, we were not blinded. The Jinyiwei had already sent someone to investigate and marked the general topographic map.

But they are few and dare not conduct in-depth investigations. We just need to check clearly between the points they selected and determine which of these points are suitable."

Wu Dahai nodded: "Okay, you can make arrangements! Don't say that, this Jinyiwei is safe in doing things, saving us a lot of trouble."

The Chief of Staff was stunned: "Yes! The Jinyiwei is everywhere all over the world. They either follow the merchant ships or form their own exploration fleets.

There are their strongholds in places we have never heard of before, it’s so awesome!”

Wu Dahai grinned: "What's that? Haven't you read the first quarter battle report? The number of people who died in our military headquarters did not die in the battle.

They really fought hard with one blow, and you can't help but admire it.

Even if you look at it, there will be no big battle between the military headquarters in the second quarter, and the number of casualties in the Jinyiwei will exceed that of the military headquarters."

The Chief of Staff sighed: "What can we do? Now we can have some war with the northern border, but we fight against the natives here, and the casualties are probably in single digits.

It is estimated that there may be a war in northern Xinjiang. I heard that Tsarist Russia will send 100,000 people to advance east, and then there will be another decisive battle."

Wu Dahai was a little envious: "It's still Zhao Andong who has vision and good luck!

When he gave up the establishment of the Sixth Division and adapted it into the Polar Division, many people laughed at him and said that he went to the north to find the source of the northwest wind to drink the northwest wind!

Look now, everyone is idle, and there is a war. When will Zhao Andong be promoted to the rank of general, and they are still scattering the brigade general. Where can they put their faces at that time!"

The chief of staff gave him a blank look: "The Brigadier General is also a general. Who do you think of Brigadier General Wu?"

Wu Dahai laughed: "I'm just giving an example. We did a good job this time. We will be promoted to a higher level when we go back. Then we will be a general with a title. Wouldn't it be a beautiful one!"

The Chief of Staff's eyes were circling: "This is not accurate. We have no great contribution to this trip, that is, cruise escorts. These ordinary cruise missions stationed in Longya Port are not enough to be promoted."

Wu Dahai waved his hand: "I'm not talking about this one. Didn't we have the credit for pacifying Da Ryukyu? This contract has been agreed upon. The end of the war will naturally require rewards based on merit.

We are cruising in Nanyang and can’t go back, so when we go back, there will definitely be a rank ceremony.”

The Chief of Staff was not so optimistic. He was different from Wu Dahai. Wu Dahai also had the merit of fighting the Japanese. Although he was lucky enough to win, this fire saved Daming a lot of manpower and material resources.

This credit directly promoted the original Chief of Staff to General Staff, but he did not have the credit to make up for it.

The two talked about some other issues, and the guards came over to report: "The imperial envoy has returned to the ship, and has negotiated with Sulu's country about purchasing weapons and sending officers' corps."

Wu Dahai was amused when he heard this: "Okay! After this is done, we don't have to send garrison troops anymore, and we don't have to wait anymore. Let's continue to speed up the supply, and we will go directly to the 风国国国!"

The Chief of Staff looked at the map: "The capital of the Hanni Kingdom is just a small town with tens of thousands of people. It may not be as good as a county town in the Ming Dynasty. General Wu should not give any hope."

Wu Dahai smiled: "At least there are people from the Ming Dynasty over there. This Sulu Kingdom has not even settled in the Ming Dynasty. If you want to eat some food in your hometown, you can't find a place to find a place."

The Chief of Staff heard Wu Dahai say that eating was also aroused by greed. In order to facilitate long-distance transportation, they bought some storage-resistant vegetables, and they were just a few of them to go over and over again.

Most of the meat is fish, shrimp, seafood, and occasionally bacon, and fresh meat can be eaten in the past two days. The First Fleet is not like Zheng He, which specializes in breeding animals and growing vegetables. They are war fleets!
