At the end of June this year, the thieves suddenly launched, the war quickly extended to the Ming Dynasty thousands of miles of sea frontier, the government and the opposition shook up and down, Xu Jin was ordered to serve as the governor of Zhejiang to fight against the thieves, at the beginning, he only had a group of fighting soldiers under his hands, was made anxious, difficult to sleep, because of the hurry on the fire and long mouth full of bubbles.

But now it is different, after several great victories, the courage of the officers and soldiers has come up, coupled with rich rewards, so the popularity of the people is high, and now there are wolf soldiers, Jiangxi Army, 500 battalions, these three backbone troops have joined, it can be said that now Xu Jin's elite soldiers are like clouds, and they can sit back and relax, and it is only a matter of time before they sweep away the thieves.

Therefore, since the eighth day of the ninth month of September, after a group of soldiers under his command went to various places, Xu Jin became the shopkeeper, and the next day of the Double Ninth Festival in September, he still had time to take Wang Cuiqiao and two twin pretty maids out to climb the heights to play, and Xia Yan, the deputy envoy of the Qin Mission, also began to work on the restoration of the land of Qingzhang, and tried to revive the people's livelihood and economy of Ningbo Prefecture.

Time is like an arrow, the sun and the moon are like a shuttle, in a blink of an eye to the beginning of October, the weather is getting colder and colder, and the cold winter is coming, but the gratifying war reports have also been transmitted back to Ningbo like snowflakes.

First of all, the wolf soldiers and 500 battalions defeated the main force of Xu Haibu outside Chongde County, Jiaxing Prefecture, and then pursued to the city of Haiyan County, killing and capturing more than 7,000 people in total. Xu Hai led more than 8,000 remnants of troops to retreat to Pinghu County, which was basically equivalent to being abolished, and it was only a matter of time before he was completely defeated.

Looking at the Ningbo Mansion again, under the joint efforts of the Jiangxi Army, Shaoxingwei and Changguowei, several small pirates infested along the coast of Ningbo Mansion have been basically wiped out.

Of course, the most fierce is Yu Dayou, this guy was appointed by Xu Jin as a general in southern Zhejiang, led more than 5,000 soldiers recruited from Yiwu, swept from Taizhou Mansion to Wenzhou Mansion, nearly hundreds of kilometers longitudinal, a total of 16 pirates and pirates, and a total of more than 7,000 people, which has far exceeded his own strength, and almost every few days he will send people to report to Xu Jin.

Xu Jin had to sigh, the famous general is worthy of being a famous general, he really doesn't blow it, he was born to lead the troops to fight, and over time, this son will become a shining star in the Ming military circle.

After sweeping away the thieves in Taizhou and Wenzhou, Yu Dayou went south non-stop and entered the border of Fujian Province, and his troops pointed directly at the three largest groups of pirates in Fujian's coastal forces, namely Deng Wenjun, Lin Bichuan and Shen Men. Now that they are targeted by Yu Dayou, the good days of these three groups of pirates should come to an end.

…………

On the third day of October in the second year of Jiajing, the sky was gray, the north wind was cold, and the cold was eroded by the bones, and it was estimated that there would be a rain and snow. In the backyard of the Yamen of the Provisional Governor of Ningbo, two coal stoves were burned in the room, and the honeycomb coal in the furnace was burning vigorously, and the room was warm.

There was a tin pot on the coal stove, the water in the pot had boiled at this time, it was the spring gushing like a drum wave, Wang Cuiqiao stretched out a jade hand as bright as frost and snow, lifted the tin pot and began to pour the pot to make tea.

The tea is the estuary black tea sent by Han Chuang not long ago, the tea soup that is brewed out is golden and clear, the faint longan fragrance is heartwarming, and the tea soup is mellow and sweet, which is the best in the estuary black tea - Zhengshan small species.

Not long ago, Han Chuang specially transported two ships of goods to Suzhou and Hangzhou to sell, and brought ten catties of black tea to Xu Jin by the way.

Due to the cold weather, all the women have changed into winter clothes, Wang Cuiqiao is wearing a satin blue skirt, covered with pink armor, and the pure white feather shawl is even more set off her jade bones and ice muscles, and her eyebrows are like a picture. In early spring and early summer, the twin pretty maids are also very eye-catching, and the two identical pretty faces are dizzying.

While roasting the charcoal fire, while tasting the mellow black tea, and then chatting with a few people around him, Mr. Xu was so comfortable that he didn't want to move, if there was another snow at this moment, while laughing and watching the snow fly outside the window, there was nothing more perfect!

However, the snow did not fall, but the cold rain fell, mixed with fine ice particles, and the tiles cracked.

In fact, the rain is not bad, Xu Jin likes to listen to the rain, but at this moment, someone who can't open his eyes comes to visit.

Zhiga ......

The door was pushed open, and Erniu came out with a cold wind, and hummed: "Master, Hui merchant Luo Longwen is asking to see you outside." ”

In the early spring and early summer, I was listening to the old man talk about "The Legend of the White Snake" with relish, and the two identical faces suddenly collapsed, Wang Cuiqiao was obviously a little displeased.

Xu Jin frowned and said, "Is there something important outside Luo Yuan?" ”

Erniu nodded and hummed: "There should be, otherwise what else would he be doing here with ice and rain?" Luo Yuanwai doesn't look like a person who is full of food and support. ”

The girls laughed out loud, Xu Jin couldn't help but be dumbfounded, Wenwenxiang is really a hero, this leisurely life has passed, tsk, even his brain has become dull, and he was actually chilled by Erniu.

"Let him wait in the living room for a while, and I'll be over later!" Xu Jin waved his hand, and Er Niu Han smiled and retreated out of the house.

In the early spring and early summer, he hurriedly brought Xu Jin a thick coat, Wang Cuiqiao personally tied a big coat to Xu Jin, and said softly: "The road is slippery in the rain, adults walk carefully, don't fall again!" ”

Xu Jin remembered the scene in Hangzhou, and couldn't help sweating, he fell hard in Wang Cuiqiao's yard that night, and almost didn't break his butt into two pieces, but it was also that night that the two opened their hearts and finally established a relationship.

Looking at the peerless beauty in front of him, who was gentle and gentle, Xu Jin's heart was hot, and he hugged Wang Cuiqiao's delicate body into his arms, and the pair of soft plumps on his chest felt more touching and moving.

Wang Cuiqiao slapped someone's small pink fist in shame, Xu Jin grabbed the pink fist and kissed it, and said with a smile: "Come back soon!" After speaking, he walked into the cold rain with an oil-paper umbrella.

Song Dayan, who was wearing a hat, also flashed out of nowhere, his hands were in his sleeves, and he followed behind Xu Jin without saying a word, he was really a conscientious entourage.

It is said that since the capture of the flag that day, Xu Jin made it clear that Song Dayan could leave at any time, but the latter thought that the capture of the flag was not enough to repay Xu Jin's kindness, so he did not leave, but continued to stay by Xu Jin's side as an entourage.

Getting back to the point, and said that Xu Jin came to the front living room, Hui merchant Luo Longwen was already waiting in the hall, and he didn't know if he was wearing too many clothes, or if he had really gained weight.

"See the Governor!" When Luo Longwen saw Xu Jinxing coming in, he hurriedly stepped forward and saluted respectfully.

Xu Jin and Luo Longwen are also old friends, when they fought side by side in Chongde County, it was from then on that Xu Jin looked at this businessman differently, although this is a businessman, but his courage is stronger than most local officials, and he dares to fight with the thieves with more than a dozen family members.

"You don't have to be polite, please take a seat!" Xu Jin handed the oil-paper umbrella to Song Dayan, took off his hat and hung it up, and then beckoned Luo Longwen to sit down.

The two of them sat down separately, and their own servants served hot tea. Xu Jin took a sip of tea and asked straight to the point: "If you don't go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, what is the matter with Luo Yuanwai?" ”

Luo Longwen said cautiously: "I heard that the Governor is planning to send troops to encircle and suppress Jintang Island? ”

Xu Jinjian's eyebrows furrowed, although he looked at Luo Longwen differently, it didn't mean that a businessman could openly inquire about the movements of the army from him, and said lightly: "Why did Luo Yuanwai ask about this?" ”

Luo Longwen hurriedly apologized and said: "It's the contemptible abrupt, it's just that the contemptible person is the same villager as Wang Zhi, if the adult allows, the contemptible person is willing to go to Jintang Island in person, and persuade Wang Zhi to surrender to the adult, it is good to be able to avoid a sword, I don't know what the adult wants?" ”

Xu Jin couldn't help but move in his heart, it was already winter now, the weather was cold, Jintang Island was really not easy to fight, and Wang Zhi had a ship, if he escaped to the depths of the sea, the officers and soldiers would be helpless. If it can be taken without spending a single soldier, it is also very good, the key Wang Zhi still has a lot of sea ships under his command, if it can be incorporated over, it can save a lot of time for shipbuilding.

"How sure are you outside?" Xu Jin said quietly.

Luo Longwen smiled bitterly: "I don't dare to be sure, just try my best, if it doesn't work, the adults have no loss, right?" ”

Xu Jin said with a smile: "That's right, even if you try it, if you can persuade Wang Zhi to surrender, this official will give you a miracle merit." ”

Luo Longwen was overjoyed, and arched his hand and said: "The contemptible people will start to prepare, but if you want to win the trust of Wang Zhi, the governor had better write a letter of recruitment and let the contemptible people take it to the island, otherwise Wang Zhi may not believe it." ”

Xu Jin was also refreshed, wrote down a piece of Zhao'an document on the spot, and stamped it with the governor of Zhejiang.

Luo Longwen solemnly put the Zhao'an document into his arms, and arched his hand to Xu Jin: "Your Excellency, before going to sea, the contemptible people have to see Wang Zhi's righteous son Mao Haifeng, please allow me." ”

Xu Jin is not worried that Luo Longwen will plot against him, after all, Wang Zhi is already a grasshopper after the autumn, and whoever gets involved will be unlucky, but if Luo Longwen can persuade Wang Zhi to surrender, it will be a rare achievement, so Xu Jin said happily: "Yes!" ”

"Lord Xie trusts!" Luo Longwen said happily: "Without further ado, the contemptible people will go to the government prison." ”

Xu Jin smiled and said: "Go, this official is waiting for Luo Yuanwai's good news, but this official has to remind one or two here, this is unpredictable, Luo Yuanwai is better to think twice." ”

Luo Long smiled with a bra: "Don't worry, my lord, the contemptible people and Wang Zhi still have a little friendship, and we are fellow villagers, so I don't want to hurt him here, and if I don't talk properly, I will leave, and he won't embarrass the contemptible." ”

Xu Jin nodded, waved his hand and watched Luo Yuanwai walk into the wind and rain. ()
