    Liu Jian felt like the world was spinning. After trembling, he almost fell down.

    The destruction of the fleet is a big deal, and the death and injury of hundreds of people seems to be a big deal too.

    But in the Ming Dynasty, in fact it was a trivial matter.

    Because the Ming Dynasty still had strong national power after all, it didn¡¯t have a few sea-going ships, but as long as it was willing, it could build thirty or three hundred ships.  A few sea-going ships, what do they count?

    The hundreds of casualties were just a drop in the ocean for the tens of millions of households in the Ming Dynasty.

    This kind of thing can actually be big or small. Dali said that such a serious accident is enough to shock the government and the public, and it is enough to trigger His Majesty's rage.

    But speaking in a small way, in the face of countless major events, it is actually not worth mentioning.

    But what really makes Liu Jian dizzy is one thing, that is all the information on the voyages to the West has been turned into waste paper.

    This is such a terrible thing.

    The national policy of going to the Western Ocean has been determined.

    This can no longer be changed. In order to find the legendary good seed, Ming must go to the vast sea and imitate the Three Treasures Eunuch of the past, leaving his own footprints on countless sea areas and land.

    But there is no sea route and no hydrological data, so it must be opened up again. The so-called seven voyages to the Western Ocean are actually opening up routes again and again. The fleet goes farther each time. With the experience of the previous voyage to the Western Ocean,  Next time, they would be able to sail thousands of miles. For these seven voyages to the Western Ocean, the court had prepared for decades, used countless manpower and material resources, and recruited hundreds of thousands of people.

    ?????????????????????????????????¡­

    What's this?

    This will be the blood and sweat of countless people, and it will take the hard work of kings of all ages to create.

    This is money, food, and manpower!

    What the cabinet does every day is to use the least amount of money to do the greatest thing.  Over the years, we have saved one province here and another province there!

    And now, just because of this memorial, the imperial court has saved food for a hundred years, and the little money that was taken out from the Ministry of Household Affairs is probably not enough to squander it next.

    Liu Jian looked miserable, sat down slumped, and said sadly: "Youyou missed me."

    Ma Wensheng¡¯s face was as pale as paper, and he didn¡¯t even dare to look up!

    At this time, he must not shift the responsibility to his predecessor. He knows very well that the more he shirks the blame, the more disgusting he will be. The Minister of War must bear the blame for this.

    Ma Wensheng said: "The junior official is old and dim, unable to bear the heavy responsibility, and has let down His Majesty's kindness. For this matter, I am willing to take the blame, resign as a scholar, retire and return to my hometown."

    Liu Jian glared at him fiercely and said sternly: "To become a scholar, to become a scholar Do you think that if you become a scholar, you will be innocent? If you become a scholar, you can feel at ease? What's the use of becoming a scholar? What's the use of this memorial?"  , it will be submitted to His Majesty immediately. You should know what will happen after His Majesty sees this memorial? You are worried about the humiliation of your ministers! You have to think of a way, think of a way. If you don¡¯t solve the current problem, you will return to your hometown and go to Hanyi Nong.  Sun, are you looking forward to your old age? Negative figure, you should be more careful. You are a minister, not one of those officials and censors, and you are not Liu Ke's expert. What can you do if you say these useless words? What's the solution? What can you do?  Once you find a way, you will be the Minister of War after all"

    Xie Qian and Li Dongyang finally understood.

    They never imagined that such a big mistake would occur at this time when all the plans for the voyage to the West were planned.

    Many civilians have already begun to requisition and requisition, and the timber for many large ships has also begun to be harvested and preservative treated. The Ministry of Household Affairs has allocated countless money and grain!

    "As a result, your Ministry of War told everyone that there is not even a navigation route, and all the information, the customs and hydrology along the way, and all the hydrological information are clueless.

    The impatient Xie Qian wanted to find a knife and chop Ma Wensheng in half.

    Xie Qian said angrily: "Didn't the Ministry of War swear by it at the beginning? Don't joke, Nanzhili and Fujian Chengxuan Envoys, as well as Zhejiang and Guangdong, recruited hundreds of thousands of people for training, shipbuilding, and logging;  There is also money and food from the Ministry of Household Affairs, which has been distributed, and it has been spent a lot. Now it is hard to collect the water, so this is all the money and food we save from our teeth on weekdays."

    How could Ma Wensheng not know the seriousness of the problem? He bit his lip and trembled.

    People who have reached his level have experience. Ma Wensheng once managed Ma Zheng, but he personally restrained those Qiu Ba in the border town. Such a person, who has reached this level today, naturally knowssp; The money was spent, but you told me that after entering the sea, the Ming fleet would be blind and deaf, unable to distinguish between east, west and north. Let alone looking for the legendary country, they would not even have a navigation line, or even  He has no basic navigation experience.

    "Ishould I say that you and Xu Jingli are like gods, or should I say that you two can't spit out ivory from your mouth?"

    Fang Jifan thought for a while and said, "I hope it is the former."

    In fact, Fang Jifan was shocked by the complete destruction of the Ministry of War fleet.

    He didn¡¯t expect that the consequences would be so serious.

    He believed that there were problems with the shipping routes and hydrology left by Sanbao Eunuch, because he believed in Xu Jing. No matter how bad Xu Jing was, he was still his disciple. He knew him well. Apart from his poor moral character, he loved to touch flowers.  He is a mess, and his knowledge is a bit poor, but in fact he can almost be called a qualified disciple.

    But even if he chose to believe Xu Jing, what he never expected was that the Ministry of War's navigation information would be so wrong.

    The fleet was destroyed not long after it went to sea. What a trap.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
