The large-scale execution of prisoners of war was not only above the confrontation between the Ming and Qi, but also in the confrontation between the four countries for more than a hundred years. The reason is that although everyone is in the four countries, they all agree that they are the same language and the same race. They can use any means to defeat their opponents and win. But after winning, everything is over. Everyone should do whatever they should do, want to take revenge, and go home to accumulate strength to start over.

So Fan Xin never expected that Ning Zeyuan Piaopiao's order, nearly a thousand captured Qi Navy officers and soldiers sank into the bottom of the sea with the sound of explosions.

Fan Xin, whose eyes were red, cursed desperately, struggling to get rid of the soldiers' hostage, and wanted to rush to Ning Zeyuan to bite him hard. Unfortunately, he could do nothing except squirming like a maggot.

Ning Zeyuan looked at him coldly and raised his hand again.

"Fan Xin, this is my second time asking you. You have five chances in total, so you can still stick to it." Ning Zeyuan's voice was not at all emotional, "Tell me where Ning Zefeng went, and where is your backup base?"

Seeing Ning Zeyuan's hand slowly falling, Fan Xin stopped cursing in despair, "You will die a bad death."

"I never thought I would die in the bed." Ning Zeyuan smiled and said, "I hope one day, I will walk on the sea in a boat, then be hit by a shell, sinking into the sea in the explosion and fire."

Fan Xin stared at Ning Zeyuan tightly, "Stop, I say, I will tell you everything."

Ning Zeyuan laughed: "General Fan, the one who knows the current affairs is a hero. That's right. Come on, please ask General Fan to go to my cabin and let's talk slowly."

After a stick of incense, Ning Zeyuan walked out of his cabin with a pale face.

Half an hour later, the commanders of the four fleets gathered in the Taiping combat command room.

"Everyone, according to the information provided by Fan Xin, Ning Zefeng led a fleet to the Liaodong Peninsula, responding to the thousands of children there, and preparing to put them into our counties in the south of the Yangtze River." Ning Zeyuan looked at everyone and said word by word.

The war room suddenly became an uproar. Although everyone had never seen the barbaric savage of the daughter-in-law, they had heard of it. Whether it was the Tang Empire or the Qi Kingdom, they did not really impress this nation during their heyday. Wherever they passed, they always practiced the burning, killing, and snatching them all. If such a strict barbaric team appeared in the large and prosperous counties in the south of the Yangtze River, they would be extremely unacceptable.

"Can our Harrier Eagle pass the information back immediately?" Someone made a suggestion.

"Where do you think this is? Not to mention that it is from the Ming Dynasty, even if it is more than 2,000 miles away from Huludao, how could the Harrier Eagle fly over such a long distance?" Someone immediately objected.

"Where is Zhou Baozhen's fleet? Can you notify them?" Zhou Yangfan proposed a more feasible plan.

"Zhou Baozhen's fleet is ordered by the Ministry of War to protect the waterway and cooperate with us to eliminate the Qi Navy. Now they are far away from the Ming Dynasty. More importantly, they are all sail warships, and it is impossible to rush back in time." Ning Zeyuan shook his head and said.

"Then what else can we do? Could it be that we can still rush back?" someone sighed.

"We must rush back." Ning Zeyuan said loudly: "Now our technical officials are calculating Ning Zefeng's navigation distance, navigation speed, and our navigation distance and speed to see if we have time."

After saying this, Ning Zeyuan paused and said, "Even if it's too late, we have to find a way to block Ning Zefeng's circuit."

Everyone was silent. The eyes were all on one corner and the officers who were helping to measure the charts and constantly flipping through the information.

Time passed by little by little. In the anxious eyes of everyone, the officers in the corner finally stopped the work at hand, and a leader came over with a stack of manuscript paper.

"How is it?" Ning Zeyuan asked.

"Mr. Ning, according to our calculations, if we want to intercept the other party before they arrive at their destination, we can only take a shortcut, but we have never walked this sea route. There may be unknown risks." The officer handed a stack of manuscripts to Ning Zeyuan. Ning Zeyuan did not look at these, but slapped him on the table, "Tell me, can you catch up?"

The officer was suspicious for a moment, "Mr., if there is enough fuel and there is no special situation on this channel, we can block them."

"That's fine." Ning Zeyuan then glanced at the manuscript paper in his hand, "Take the nearest shortcut, go straight to Huludao, where to refuel, and then go straight to Jiangnan, trying to intercept them between the other party's counties in Jiangnan."

"Yes!" All the generals in the room stood up with a bang. They were veterans on the water. What risks would be contained on a waterway that they had never walked before. It was self-evident. If it were easy to leave, it would have been opened up long ago. Since no one has walked by yet, it has already explained the problem.

"Zhou Yangfan, stay, rule the Manila fleet and return to Manila, renovate and reorganize, combine this battle, summarize experience and improve combat effectiveness." Ning Zeyuan looked at Zhou Yangfan and said.

"Mr., I'm going to go back to rescue Jiangnan, too."

"We are all back. What should we do if these Manila fleets do? Are you sheep? Don't forget that you are the navy commander of the Western Manila Company. Ning Zefeng's affairs are not more than you, but it is urgent to improve the combat effectiveness of the Manila fleet. No one knows when the enemies in the west will come. It is good to be able to improve them for one more day. Which one is more important, you should think about it in your heart!" Ning Zeyuan said in a narrow voice.

"Yes." Although he was a little dejected, Zhou Yangfan could only obey the orders.

"In addition, free up all the coal on your ship for several other warships." Ning Zeyuan patted the manuscript in his hand: "The coal on our supply ship is not enough."

Zhou Yangfan was stunned: "Then why should I go back?"

"How to go back?" Ning Zeyuan glared at him, "You have hundreds of sail warships under your command, and you are still afraid that you will not be able to go back, so let them drag you back."

Although the atmosphere is a little nervous now, the generals in the room are still amused by Ning Zeyuan's words.

Zhou Yangfan glared at them viciously and then said, "Mr., what should we do with these prisoners of war?"

"Take it back to Manila."

Zhou Yangfan hesitated for a moment and whispered: "Mr., today you sank that ship. If all the people see it, if they take it back, you can't cover up this matter."

Everyone in the room immediately took a breath after hearing this. The meaning of Zhou Yangfan's words was clearer.

Ning Zeyuan sneered: "Do you think you can cover up this matter if you kill them all? Not to mention that so many Manilans see it, will the inspectors on our warship hide it and not report it?"

After saying this, everyone shut up. Yes, the inspectors in the navy were afraid that they had already drafted the report at this time. They had no good impression of these people, but they could not say disgust them, because they were reliable comrades and partners in the wartime, but in normal times, they would pass on the navy's situation to the next level one by one. They would neither add fuel to the fire nor hide nor report it.

"I don't care about the punishment and criticism that may come. I prefer the Manila people to regard me as a demon. Anyway, I have done a lot of things where I have done it." Ning Zeyuan said seriously. "You don't have to worry, there is a tall one standing on the sky falling down. According to Fan Xin's instructions, there is an island more than 100 miles away from Changxing Island, which is Ning Zefeng's real nest. However, the hydrological situation there is quite complicated. Before you return to Manila, you will wipe out the place there first."

"As for orders, Minister!"

"After these Qi prisoners of war were brought back to Manila, don't waste food. Many infrastructure projects in Manila are short of people. These people sent to it just supplement the shortcomings in people's hands."

"I'm afraid they won't work hard."

"What are you going to worry about? There are only a few thousand people. How many people can be divided on each construction site? They may gather together or dare to make trouble and place them separately. There are a few here and some where, it will be smoothed out in a few days."

"Yes, Minister."

"Then let it be. Be prepared for it if you go down. It will be very hard along the way." Ning Zeyuan waved and said.

After busy preparing for a night, in the early morning, six steam warships led by Taiping lined up in a row, and sailed towards the Ming Empire with lightning. Behind them, another huge sail warship formation led by Zhou Yangfan sailed towards the sea on the left side of Changxing Island. Where there was another battle waiting for them.

Just as Ning Zeyuan led his fleet to rush around the sea day and night, on the other side, more than ten warships led by his elder brother Ning Zefeng were loaded with female Naomen and were also sailing on the sea. In fact, the speed of the fleet led by Ning Zefeng was far lower than that of Ning Zeyuan's subordinate officers. First, it was because when boarding the ship in Liaodong, the disciplined child Naomen caused them great trouble, and second, it was revealed that

The sea is the world of the wise people. Ning Zefeng also dared not take those familiar waterways, so he could only take some roads that he had never taken before. Ning Zefeng walked away from strange waterways to take shortcuts to speed up his pace, while Ning Zefeng was helpless and had to go further for safety reasons. The distance was long and the speed was slower. If Ning Zeyuan's fleet could travel unimpeded, they could intercept Ning Zefeng halfway.
