Relatively speaking, Zheng Zhilong was one of the most familiar Ming officials to Nanyang. He heard the emperor ask, and explained it one by one.

It turned out that on the Annan Peninsula, the Annan Commander's Office was actually the weakest and had been in a passive state of being beaten. If it weren't for civil strife in Li State, and the southernmost part of the Yuan Dynasty had proclaimed himself king and attacked each other, the Annan Commander's Office might have been destroyed by Li State.

This means that there are actually three major forces in the entire Annan Peninsula, among which Li Kingdom has the largest land area and the strongest power, but it is sandwiched in the middle and fights with both sides all year round.

Of course, because Annan nominally belonged to the Ming Dynasty, Li State did not dare to attack with all its strength. Its center of gravity was still suppressing the rebellion in the south, and it had always wanted to quell the civil strife before it had the confidence to swallow the commander of the Annan Commander. However, the rebellion in the south was helped by Folang Ji people, and the mountains and rivers were dangerous and could not be attacked. (The Zheng Ruan dispute I mentioned before actually refers to the internal dispute between the Li Dynasty. I was wrong in the previous article, so I'm sorry!)

Emperor Chongzhen frowned when he heard that the Portuguese were also furious on the Annan Peninsula. Now there are also people in Macau. Should these people be treated as the best way to be used by the Ming Dynasty? If they cannot be used by the Ming Dynasty, they will have to deal with them sooner or later.

When he thought of this, he suddenly remembered that when he added someone a few days ago, he seemed to have added someone, as if he was named Wang Henry. If he didn't have this surname, he would be like a foreigner, and he didn't know if he was a European?

These thoughts flashed, and Emperor Chongzhen asked again after Zheng Zhilong finished speaking: "If I want to attack the Li Dynasty, do you think what should I do best?"

Zheng Zhilong was a little stunned when he heard this, but he immediately came to his senses and immediately replied: "Your Majesty, I finally think that the main force can be attracted by land, and then the fleet lands from the rear, attacking from north to south, or it may be possible!"

If it were someone else, this plan might not be proposed. But he was in charge of a navy. When fighting with other pirates on weekdays, he also landed in and attacked the pirate's nest, so he was no stranger to landing wars.

Emperor Chongzhen nodded when he heard this, and suddenly his tone became a little heavier and asked, "Do you know why I promoted you to the gangster general of the coastal defense?"

Zheng Zhilong was stunned when he heard this, thinking it wasn't it for his own food transport? But since the emperor said so, there must be other statements, so he immediately replied: "I don't know!"

"As long as you do it, I will also grant you the deputy general and general in the future." Emperor Chongzhen said this, and saw Zheng Zhilong's surprised look, he added, "You can even let your navy be independent from the local area and be directly led by the governor of Zhejiang, Fujian and Guangdong!"

When Zheng Zhilong heard this, he could no longer control himself and was shocked.

Since ancient times, the status of the navy has been very low. The Ming Dynasty is so large that there are only two or three places with navy corpses. Moreover, the navy commanders are generally coastal defense guerrillas, and few people have heard that the navy commanders can continue to be promoted.

But the emperor not only said that, but even said that the navy should be independent from the local area and be directly under the jurisdiction of the governor of Zhejiang, Fujian and Guangdong. In other words, the status of the navy suddenly became very high?

By the way, what is the governor of Zhejiang, Fujian and Guangdong? I have never heard of this official position. Is it going to be added? The three places in Zhejiang, Fujian and Guangdong, will the navy be very large?

These thoughts flashed through his mind one by one, but he didn't have time to think deeply. Seeing Emperor Chongzhen staring at him, he couldn't help but subconsciously confirm: "Your Majesty, is this...is this true?"

If it is true, the future navy can completely compete with the army on the land and will no longer be a vassal of the generals on the land! This will be a great news for everyone in the navy!

When Emperor Chongzhen heard his question, he smiled and nodded, "I hope that in my lifetime, I can establish a three-man naval, army and air force. However, the air force is unlikely, but the navy and the army are not a big problem!"

"..." Zheng Zhilong was stunned by Emperor Chongzhen's statement when he heard this. He didn't expect that the emperor would still think about the sea, army, and air force! Does the air force mean in the air? How is this possible! But in the future, it will not be called a navy, but a navy...

Thinking of this, even though Zheng Zhilong had not regarded himself as a complete Ming army general at this time, he was shocked by a bright future. Is this really possible?

Emperor Chongzhen didn't even think about this idea. At least the first two are certainly possible, while the last one depends on luck. After all, it is normal that he can live to be in his sixties, and then there is a system-added fifty-year life span, which is over one hundred years. In such a long time, there will be no chance to fulfill this wish.

Seeing the emperor looking at him confidently, Zheng Zhilong felt like he was dreaming. But he immediately thought of the new things he saw after he arrived in the capital. If it were the past, he would have never thought about it, but now he has it!

Thinking of this, Zheng Zhilong believed it a little when he looked at Emperor Chongzhen. The excitement on his face suddenly became a little more.

When Emperor Chongzhen saw this, he couldn't help but smile. It seemed that the cake was almost the same, so it's time to talk about the topic!

Thinking of this, he said to Zheng Zhilong: "But I have a few conditions to achieve this goal!"

"Please let Your Majesty make it clear!" Zheng Zhilong immediately became a little nervous when he heard this, and immediately clasped his fists and played.

Emperor Chongzhen was waiting for his words and immediately replied: "First, everyone must see the importance of the navy! For example, in the future, when Annan fights, the navy can transport the army on a large scale, land in the rear of the enemy to defeat the enemy! For example, the navy can protect the safety of the coastal people, and can serve the country and the people like the army..."

Zheng Zhilong heard this and nodded involuntarily. Of course, otherwise if the navy is useless, how could the status be so high!

At this time, he was quite confident about what Emperor Chongzhen said. As long as he gave enough ships, he could recruit water soldiers by himself. It was not a problem to wipe out other pirates. Only with enough ships, no matter how many troops were transported, these were all very simple!

As he was thinking this, he suddenly heard Emperor Chongzhen say the next condition and said: "The second and most important point is that you must have money to do these things! People are not a problem, but money. But what the court lacks the most now is money! I believe Zheng Qing should know this, right?"

Speaking of this, he sighed slightly and said, "If the imperial court has no money, he can't do anything!"
