Dawn was approaching, the morning sun was still not visible below the horizon, the sky was dark, and many stars were still twinkling. Zhu Ping'an got up early, no, he got up in the chair, after he stayed up late last night and wrote a few official documents, it was already late, just lying on the table, squinting for less than an hour.

Because of the serious lack of sleep, after Zhu Ping'an got up, his spirit was a little weak, in order to refresh himself, Zhu Ping'an took a bucket of well water from outside, and when he washed, he simply took a cold shower in the clean room.

The well water is cold, and a scoop is poured down from above, and it is immediately refreshed and refreshed.

"Happy!"

A scoop into his soul, Zhu Ping'an couldn't help but shout, and poured scoops of cold water on his body.

After taking a cold bath, Zhu Ping'an was refreshed, and the whole person seemed to be resurrected with full blood.

Post-war reconstruction is complicated, and every item needs to be accelerated.

Zhu Ping'an got dressed, took the official document written last night, and walked out of the three halls quickly, preparing to let Liu Mu take ten officials to ride on a fast horse to send the official document to Taizhou Mansion, and he took Liu Dadao and others to continue to the countryside.

"Ah......h

Zhu Ping'an only stepped out of the three halls when he heard an exclamation, and then collided with the painting carrying the food box.

Hua'er came from the inner house to bring breakfast to Zhu Ping'an, she knew that Zhu Ping'an used to get up early, so she got up before dawn today to make breakfast, and sent it to Zhu Ping'an as soon as it was done.

Hua'er wanted to give Zhu Ping'an a surprise, but he didn't expect to bump into Zhu Ping'an who went out before he entered the third hall, Hua'er was smaller, and he only had time to exclaim, and the whole person was knocked back by Zhu Ping'an, who was in a hurry to go out, but despite this, Hua'er firmly remembered the food box in his heart, like a dirt rat, hugged the food box tightly and protected the food box in his arms.

The expected scene of falling to the ground did not happen, but fell into a pair of arms, Hua'er opened her eyes suspiciously, and as soon as she opened her eyes, she saw Zhu Ping'an, and couldn't help blushing, it turned out that Gongzi caught him in time.

"Painting, why are you here? Didn't I tell you yesterday that I've been busy lately and will take care of three meals a day outside. ”

Zhu Ping'an helped the painting up, and when he saw the food box that the painting was carrying, he couldn't help but whisper.

"Childe, how can the rice sold outside be delicious with their own intentions, they are not willing to put oil, salt, and they don't know if the ingredients they use are cleaned, how uneasy they are to eat."

The painting put the food box on the table in the room, and replied with his fingers in a bara bara, saying that the head was the Tao.

Ahem, you are willing to put salt and eat your meal, and I will drink at least two more pots of water this day.

Zhu Ping'an looked at the food box on the table, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching, forming a conditioned reflex.

"Childe, hurry up and have breakfast, after breakfast, you can have strength for a day." Hua'er urged expectantly.

All right!

Don't discourage your child's motivation......

Zhu Ping'an opened the food box under the expectant gaze of the painting, and moved the chopsticks, well, there was some surprise, the salty taste of the food made by the painting today is much lighter than before, although the taste needs to be improved, but it is much better than before, in order to save time, Zhu Ping'an divided the food box by two.

Childe eats so fast, it seems that the food I cook is delicious...... The little girl painting of the bun is a little floating, and there is a pride on her little face, if there is a tail, her little tail will be cocked.

"Childe, report urgently."

Zhu Ping'an hurriedly finished eating, took the official document, and was about to go out when he heard Liu Mu's voice begging to see him outside the hall.

"Brother Shepherd, please come in." Zhu Ping'an invited Liu Mu in.

"Childe, there was an urgent report just now, the Taiping County next door was captured by the Japanese yesterday afternoon, and it was the group of Japanese who were defeated from our Jingnan. In addition, the two counties of Ninghai and Xianju in the north were also plundered by another gang of Japanese robbers, and it is not clear whether the county seat was breached. Listening to the fleeing people, the capital city of Taizhou was also besieged by Japanese pirates. ”

Liu Mu came in to report, and one news was more shocking than the other.

Taiping was captured by the Japanese Invaders?!

Zhu Ping'an frowned, what does Taiping Zhi County eat, when the Japanese went ashore from Jingnan the day before yesterday and besieged Jingnan County, Taiping County had already received the news, and it was time to take precautions in advance, right? ! That gang of Japanese robbers has already lost most of their troops in Jingnan! Feathered arrows are gone! Why was it captured so quickly by the Japanese Invaders?!!!! Zhu Ping'an really couldn't figure it out.

In addition, Ninghai and Xianju were also besieged by the Japanese invaders, and even the capital of Taizhou was besieged by the Japanese invaders. It seems that these gangs of Japanese robbers are a gang, and they have chosen Taizhou Mansion as a target for plundering! There must be at least more than 10,000 people in this gang of Japanese bandits, and more than 10,000 Japanese bandits are a force that cannot be ignored.

Previously, the Japanese forces in Zhejiang were led by Chen Sipan, but they were annexed by Wang Zhi at the beginning of the year.

So, what is the relationship between this gang of robbers and Wang Zhi? Is it Wang Zhi's widows?

It shouldn't be.

It stands to reason that, according to historical records, after Wang Zhi annexed Chen Sipan, he became the largest Japanese force on the sea, and Wang Zhi's ambitions were also expanding day by day, intending to establish a country on his own, replace the tributary status of the Japanese state, and monopolize trade with the Ming Dynasty. During this period of time, Wang Zhi was busy annexing and expanding his power by the Japanese at sea; On the one hand, he was busy seeking "tribute", and he had great expectations for the imperial court, so he had been restraining his subordinates from going ashore to plunder, so as not to destroy the overall situation of "tribute". During this time, it was a short honeymoon period between Wang Zhi and the Ming Dynasty, and Wang Zhi would not order his subordinates to go ashore and plunder.

However, Xu Hai and other subordinates under Wang Zhi are inconsistent with Wang Zhi's concept and have always disobeyed Wang Zhi's management, could they have done it secretly?! It is possible, but it is unlikely, the more than 10,000 Japanese robbers plundered Taizhou too much, and they did not dare to go against Wang Zhi's will so blatantly and destroy the overall situation of the "tribute".

Then, the biggest possibility is that this gang of Japanese is not a Japanese from Zhejiang, but a foreign Japanese from Fujian and other places. Although Wang Zhi's power was the highest in the southeast, he did not unify the Japanese invaders, and many Japanese in Fujian and other places did not obey him.

Zhu Ping'an's analysis of the source of the Japanese is not to have nothing to do, but to analyze the situation.

On the one hand, the imperial court reacted and would send troops to suppress the pirates, on the other hand, they came from Fujian to invade Taizhou, Zhejiang, and crossed the border.

Of course, even if Wang Zhi's subordinates disobey the discipline and disobey Wang Zhi's restraints, and secretly go ashore to plunder, then they will not stay for a long time, if Wang Zhi finds out, the consequences are not something they can afford.

Therefore, no matter what the situation is, this gang of would-be robbers will never stay in Taizhou for a long time, and they will definitely grab a handful and run.

In this case, then Jingnan can rebuild with peace of mind, and whether he can also grab a battle merit, as long as he plans properly, the success rate is very high, and this kind of opportunity is a rare opportunity for a civil official in a hundred years.

Zhu Ping'an reached out and touched his chin, falling into thought.
