Chapter 112 Return to Linhai County

The first thing is naturally to collect intelligence. After all, only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you win every battle.

"My dear, going to sea to fight is not an easy task. After all, we must first understand our country's shipping routes, their travel patterns, and our combat capabilities. These are the keys to whether we can defeat the Japanese pirates."

The emperor frowned slightly after taking a quick look, but when he thought about being able to go out to sea to fight and defeat the Japanese pirates, which would naturally be beneficial to the stability of the country, he immediately looked for the general who would protect the country.

General Guo is an old man in his sixties. When he was young, he had gone to sea three times to fight against Japanese pirates, so he naturally had rich combat experience.

"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you."

"Old General, please get up quickly."

Out of respect for the Great General Protector of the Nation, the emperor personally got up from his seat and helped him up.

"Old General, please take a look at this and tell us what you think."

The emperor then handed Zhao Feng's memorial to the General of the National Defense.

"This is Zhao Feng, a Captain of the Embroidered Uniform Guard appointed by me personally. Captain Zhao has an idea: to go out to sea and fight against the Japanese pirates."

"General Guoda has extensive combat experience in this area and is a skilled fighter. We will discuss this matter at the court meeting."

The emperor sat on the dragon throne and glanced at everyone present with a majestic look.

"Today, everyone can speak freely. I forgive all of you."

"As ordered."

All the civil and military officials present focused their attention on the National Protector General.

The Great General Protector of the Nation just glanced at Zhao Feng indifferently, then opened the memorial in his hand.

Gradually, his eyes changed from indifference to surprise.

"Gathering intelligence?"

"Building a navy?"

The general looked at Zhao Feng in surprise, "Just from the perspective of building a navy, this is unprecedented."

"But building a navy is not an easy task. We need to build ships first, improve their equipment, and enhance the combat effectiveness of the army. These are not things that can be accomplished in a day or two."

"If the old general were to hand this matter over to me, I would definitely do it well."

Zhao Feng looked so confident that the Protector General was a little curious.

But the more you look down, the more intense the surprise in the old general's eyes will be.

"But why propose a naval blockade?"

"The Japanese pirates are relatively poor in resources. They have relied on trade with us to survive over the years. If we impose a naval blockade, their logistical supplies will be cut off..."

"We will adopt a naval blockade strategy, using the coordination of ships and soldiers to block the pirates' shipping routes. We will cut off their supply lines and make it impossible for them to continue fighting."

"But what about our logistics?"

The old general who protected the country had experienced the baptism of war and naturally knew the difficulties of fighting at sea.

Once out to sea, the large ship will drift on the sea for several days, and supplying it during these days is indeed a problem.

"If we can really defeat the Japanese pirates, we can naturally use local resources."

Zhao Feng's speech on fighting against the Japanese pirates successfully convinced the emperor and the general who protected the country.

"Since Captain Xu is so confident, I'll leave this matter to you."

After walking out of the hall, Zhao Feng successfully obtained the imperial edict. At this time, the stone hanging in his heart finally fell to the ground.

After hurriedly returning to the posthouse, Zhao Feng simply packed his luggage and immediately took his men to rush towards Linhai County.

Zhao Feng had just walked to the gate of the capital when he saw Mr. Zhuge and Qi Huanhuan waiting on the roadside to see him off.

"Mr. Xu, I didn't expect you to leave the capital so soon."

Qi Huanhuan looked at Zhao Feng with reluctance, "I don't know when we will meet again."

"If we are destined to meet, we will naturally meet soon, but you, the Demon Sect, must keep a low profile during this period of time."

Zhao Feng was a little worried, so he had to remind him again.

"Don't worry, we've made all the arrangements."

"I hope we'll meet again."

After hurriedly saying goodbye to Qi Huanhuan and Mr. Zhuge, Zhao Feng once again set out on his journey back home.

The journey was smooth and they arrived at Linhai County in just half a month.

"Sir, why did your trip to the capital take so long?"

Honglian saw Zhao Feng coming back and immediately went to greet him, "During the time you were away, a lot of things happened here. It has undergone earth-shaking changes."

Honglian told Zhao Feng all the recent events as if they were her own treasures.

"Sir, you came back so late, didn't you meet your confidante on the way?"

Honglian couldn't help but tease.

"What nonsense are you talking about, little girl? I went to the capital to handle a lot of things this time, so I was a little delayed."

Then Zhao Fengshun placed the imperial edict given to him by the emperor into Honglian's hand.

"Open it and take a look."

"Yes."

After reading the imperial edict, Honglian looked at Zhao Feng with a worried expression.

"There are at least hundreds of sects, big and small, in Linhai County, and many of them we don't know much about yet. I'm afraid it will be difficult to find out everything in the short term."

"As for fighting against the Japanese pirates, it is even more difficult. These pirates are very cunning. If our army goes to encircle and suppress them, they will retreat. If we leave, they will come back again."

Of course, every time something like this happens, it is the ordinary people who are ultimately hurt.

"These pirates are very cunning. They only come with a small number of troops each time, but they are the elite of the pirate country. We ordinary people can't deal with them..."

Honglian did not hide anything and reported the situation here to Zhao Feng in detail.

"The reason why the Japanese pirates did not touch the army is simply because their army is not strong enough."

After some analysis, Zhao Feng continued, "If we're talking about individual combat, I might be able to compete with us, but if we're talking about group combat, the Japanese pirates simply don't have the strength."

Not to mention the fighting power of the imperial court, the strength of the Six Gates and the Embroidered Uniform Guards alone is not something that the Japanese pirates can match.

"So what should we do next?"

Faced with such an unfavorable situation, Honglian was of course anxious.

"Of course, the more important thing is that the remaining Japanese pirates in the city may not have been completely eliminated."

In fact, Zhao Feng had thought about the various difficulties he faced before.

After Zhao Feng lowered his head and pondered for a moment, he decided to first wipe out the remaining forces in the city and find ways to clean up the garbage in the entire Linhai County.

"I've been back for so long, but I still haven't paid a visit to the commander."

Now he is also a member of the Jinyiwei. Whether for personal or official reasons, he should go to pay a visit to Li Chengfeng.
