Zheng Yun and Liu Er are both strong martial artists, and they hope to establish a women's barracks. Although Wang Xinyu agreed with her idea, he also proposed that the women's barracks did not go directly to the battlefield, but served as ambulances and literary soldiers.

"But female soldiers also have to practice martial arts, otherwise how can they be called soldiers?" Zheng Yun still hopes that her women's battalion can have a chance to kill the enemy.

"It is necessary to practice martial arts, but they practice martial arts for self-protection at critical moments, not for charging into battle."

Wang Xinyu's family clicked on the gifts sent by the guests, and found that there were really a lot of gifts, among which King Yanping and Zhang Huangyan both gave a generous gift of 1,000 taels of silver, and Fang Yizhi did not come, but he also asked someone to send 500 taels of silver. Qian Mo, Shen Yuxiao, Du Dengchun and others each gave two hundred taels of silver. The rest of Zheng Jiajun more or less gave gifts.

Gu Yanwu sent two thousand taels of silver, and also attached a note, saying that he only gave two hundred taels, and the rest were gifts from the Jiangnan Shi clan, and he also sent a batch of gifts such as silk, tea and ceramics.

The couple counted and received a total of more than 20,000 taels of silver as gifts.

"We have to return the money that our brothers have given us, and leave a little bit of meaning, because they are not so rich. The male protagonist and the female protagonist are inside, and the distribution of the family's silver is handed over to you. Once there, you'll be the steward of our Admiralty's Palace. Wang Xinyu said to his wife.

"Xianggong, the concubine will arrange it, and if you send it back like this, I am afraid that they will have ideas, and the concubine thinks that we will return the silver to them by giving them a salary." Zheng Yun nodded and said.

When the two were talking, a family member outside came to report: "Report to the master, Lord Zhang outside came to the door to ask to see him, saying that he was going back and came to see the master." ”

"Okay, I'll go to the door to meet him personally!" Wang Xinyu stood up.

Wang Xinyu walked to the gate and saw Zhang Huangyan. He bowed and said, "Zhang Shangshu, please come inside!" ”

Zhang Huangyan said with a smile: "Wang Junmen, this official is here to say goodbye, and he is going back to Zhoushan, so he came to see Wang Junmen before leaving." ”

Because yesterday before the wedding, Zheng Chenggong suddenly announced the promotion of Wang Xinyu to the rank of admiral, so Wang Xinyu was called the military gate.

The two walked into the living room and sat down as the guest of honor, Zhang Huangyan touched his beard with a smile and looked at Wang Xinyu: "Wang Junmen is really a young hero!" Make a big fuss in Guangdong, destroy the Tartar Guangdong Water Division! This battle was fought beautifully! Kill the Tartar puppet governor of Liangguang! It's really happy! ”

"Zhang Shangshu has won the award!" Wang Xinyu arched his hand, "It's all the credit of the brothers under him." It's a pity that I didn't kill Shang Kexi's old turtle, it's a pity! ”

Zhang Huangyan stroked his beard lightly, shook his head slightly: "Wang Junmen, in addition to congratulating Junmen this time, this official also has one more thing, that is, I hope that King Yanping can give up that overseas wild land and take Jiangnan directly!" Ben Ru's strength was insufficient, but Wang Junmen had to make a big fuss in Guangdong. Annihilate the Tartar Guangdong Naval Division. If the soldiers also enter the Yangtze River, the Tartars will be transported from north to south! But as soon as the north-south line of the Tartars is broken, the Jiangnan Shi clan will inevitably be anyway! Wang Junmen, do you know that the people of Jiangnan are looking forward to Wang Shi? ”

"Your Excellency!" Wang Xinyu stood up. "Our army is insufficient, and if we rush into the Yangtze River, we will not be able to capture Nanjing. Even if they were lucky enough to capture Nanjing, once the Tartars raised troops to besiege it. Our army could only withdraw from the Yangtze River in defeat. ”

"Wang Junmen has dozens of giant ships of the Taixi people, and we can come and go freely when we enter the river, and the Tartar boat division is not an enemy! Don't seek to conquer cities. But ask for a break in its luck! But as soon as the luck is broken, the eight banners of the iron-eating crops in the north will be chaotic, and it will be like a mad dog pounced on the river, and I can use the momentum of the sailor to kill the Tartars by the river! There are few flag people, but if the damage is too large, it will lose the control force of Jiangnan. Zhang Huangyan still insisted that Zheng Jiajun enter the Yangtze River to cut off the north-south transportation line. He believed that as long as the Cao Yun line was broken, the Eight Banners would inevitably attack Jiangnan desperately, and then they could use the naval artillery to annihilate the enemy by the river.

"But the general's land division is insufficient, there are only more than 10,000 people in total, some of them have to stay in Qiongzhou, and the rest of the troops are not enough to fight on a large scale in the south of the Yangtze River!" Wang Xinyu smiled bitterly.

"This official hopes that King Yanping can resume the Northern Expedition, but unfortunately he does not listen to the advice. Shangwang Wang Junmen admonished the king of Yanping that he would prosper the Ming Dynasty and would want to go on a northern expedition. If the king of Yanping sends troops, he will not suffer from a shortage of troops. ”

"It's a pity that it is impossible for King Yanping to go on another northern expedition, he has to take Dongfan Island first, and then take Luzon, and accumulate enough troops before he will go north again."

Zhang Huangyan sighed: "If we delay, I'm afraid that Jiangnan Shizi will lose confidence in us!" ”

Wang Xinyu proposed a compromise plan: "Most of us are big ships, which is not conducive to fighting in the Yangtze River. It is necessary to build more small boats, use small boats to protect large ships, and use large ships as fire support points, so as to cut off the Yangtze River channel. At present, the king of Yanping wants to send troops to Dongfan Island, and I am the general of the king of Yanping, and I will definitely help him seize Dongfan Island. As for the coastal areas of Zhejiang, I will send a fleet to Zhoushan to protect Zhoushan's security. In addition, Lord Shangshu, you can deploy this fleet. Of course, the specific battle plan has to be up to them, after all, they are the officers and men of the navy. ”

"Wang Junmen's method is feasible, if you borrow a water division from me, we can make Jiangnan scholars rekindle their hope of recovering the country."

"I'll lend you three Xiyi fifth-class ships, twelve or sixth-class ships, plus twenty centipede clippers, and twelve Haicang ships, and I'll send you more than 300 small boats captured in Qiongzhou and Guangzhou. Also, you have to build more of the kind of paddle clippers I designed for you. With these boats, Zhang Shangshu can re-enter the Yangtze River! If there is not enough wood, the small boats of the captured Tartar sailors can be dismantled and used as wood to build new ships. ”

Zhang Huangyan arched his hand and said: "This official thanks Wang Junmen for generously borrowing troops!" As for shipbuilding, please rest assured that we are drying wood every day, and we can build ships at any time, and we have built more than 10 sail paddle clippers designed by Wang Junmin. ”

"With small ships to help in the war, the big ships are not afraid of the fire of the Tartars. In addition, I borrowed troops not only to help Zhang Shangshu, but also to break the sea ban of the Tartars. I have thought about it, we can enter the Yangtze River and open trade routes, so that our sea trade can get enough goods and make more money. Wang Xinyu said what he thought. Although he intends to open a way to export goods by sea trade in Guangdong, only one way is not safe, and it would be better if he could open another road at the mouth of the Yangtze River.

"Entering the Yangtze River, not only can you pass all the way, but also can contact the thirteen families in Kuidong, echoing from east to west, cutting off the Yangtze River, and cutting off the connection between the north and the south of the Tartar pseudo-dynasty, which is a move that kills two birds with one stone." Zhang Huangyan nodded.

Wang Xinyu said: "Please rest assured Zhang Shangshu!" The fleet will be sent to Zhang Shangshu within a month. ”

Zhang Huangyan got up and prepared to leave: "It's not too early, since Wang Junmen is willing to borrow troops, then the official is also relieved." ”

Wang Xinyu suddenly remembered something and asked, "I don't know if Master Zhang knows a person named Wang Shiyuan?" ”

Zhang Huangyan shook his head: "This official doesn't know and haven't heard of this person. ”

Wang Xinyu lowered his voice and asked softly in Zhang Huangyan's ear: "I don't know if Lord Zhang has seen the third prince of the first emperor?" In fact, it should be the fifth prince, and two princes died in front of him, so he ranked third. ”

Zhang Huang said: "This official has heard many people talk about it, and some people borrowed the name of the third prince of Zhu to raise troops. But it's not really the third prince of Zhu. Since the martyrdom of the first emperor, the whereabouts of the three princes are unknown, some say that the crown prince was killed by the Tartars, and some say that he is still alive. The official can't say for sure. ”

"This official sent Zhang Yukun to accompany Zhang Shangshu back to Zhoushan, Lord Zhang, please!"

Wang Xinyu personally sent Zhang Huangyan to the dock and prepared to send Zhang Huangyan back to Zhoushan by his own boat.

There was a huge four-story warship moored on the dock, a fifth-class ship, not as big as the fourth-rank Drake, but it was already very large.

"Wang Junmen wants to lend this ship to this official?" Zhang Huangyan was very happy when he saw this giant ship.

"Exactly!"

Then Wang Xinyu asked people to call Zhang Yukun and asked him to prepare to sail and send Zhang Shangshu back to Zhoushan.

"Zhang Shangshu, this is the deputy commander of the Nanyang Navy of this officer, after going to Zhoushan, he can help you." Wang Xinyu introduced to Zhang Huangyan.

Then Wang Xinyu explained to Zhang Yukun that he would accompany Zhang Huangyan to Zhoushan first. Later, he will arrange a group of warships to go to Zhoushan. After going to Zhoushan, the big strategic plan, following Zhang Huangyan's arrangement, is likely to enter the Yangtze River estuary to fight next. Of course, the specific naval battle plan has to be decided by Zhang Yukun and the British. In addition, Wang Xinyu also hopes that if he has the opportunity, he can take Chongming Island and put a nail in the mouth of the Yangtze River.

"In addition, when there are more mortars, you can drive back the sixth-level ship and install the mortars, which can be used as gunboats, and the effect of attacking land cities is excellent." Wang Xinyu explained Zhang Yukun again.

After sending Zhang Huangyan away, Wang Xinyu returned home.

On the second day of the wedding, there were guests at home one after another, all of whom came from other places, some of them were happy and some were congratulatory gifts. Mrs. Wang took a few maids and cooks to be busy in the room, preparing a banquet for today's guests, and the guests who came tried their best to stay and eat. In this way, he was busy all day, and it was only after dark that Wang Xinyu came down.

lit the red candle, Wang Xinyu, who had been busy all day, finally became free. Looking at his newlywed wife, Zheng Yun's red new clothes have been changed, replaced by a set of goose yellow clothes with light red edges, wearing a red skirt with a flower color, and the hair ornament on her head has also changed from the original girlish style to a coiled young woman's hair bun, I don't know if it is because of the newlywed Yan'er or the reflection of red candlelight, the delicate little face is flushed, and it looks even more shy and lovely.

Wang Xinyu thought in his heart: She is only sixteen years old in the New Year, only fifteen years old, and in the next generation, she will still be a middle school student, at most a freshman in high school, which must have a sense of guilt.

Looking at Wang Xinyu's stupid and stupid appearance, Zheng Yun sneered: "What is Xianggong thinking?" ”

This smile was so charming, Wang Xinyu's whole person was about to melt, and he couldn't help but say in a daze: "Lady, you are so beautiful." ”

Zheng Yun was very happy when she heard this, but she felt that her face was a little hot, and her heart was very agitated. After a while, he said in a voice so low that almost only he could hear it: "Xianggong, if the concubine can have a son and a half daughter, she will be even happier." (To be continued......)
