Chapter 941: Combat Readiness

"It turned out to be Mr. Li, Mr. Zhang in person. www.biquge.info"The staff is not trusted, strictly speaking, he is also an official of the imperial court, even if Yuan Keli resigns, he can find an official position for him, but since he has a request for others, and Yusheng is not an ordinary businessman, the person who can be the master of such a big ship will not be an ordinary person."

"Sir is gracious." Zhang Xuwen's demeanor and temperament are very outstanding, gentle and elegant, he looks like a scholar, and he is a few years older, so he will answer, but Li Pingzhi just gave it up.

"This time the boat went to the Dongjiang River," the staff said with a smile: "I have to take such a big boat, it is the two gentlemen who have blue eyes, and after the return trip, I will definitely mention this matter in front of Yuan Junmen." ”

Zhang Xuwen smiled and said: "I'm going to Phi Island too, Mr. is just taking this tailwind boat." ”

The staff smiled and did not say too many kind words.

After that, the ship was very fast, and the staff noticed that the four-masted sail of the ship was very inflated when the wind was eating, and the speed of the ship was much faster than that of the hard-sailed sea-going ship, although I don't know how much faster, but judging from the speed of the hull breaking the waves, it was more than twice as fast.

Sure enough, it didn't take long to see the coast, the big boat still drove along the coast, there were really many islands along the way, large and small, there were obviously residents and garrisons on the big island, and there were also some ships of the northern naval division of the Ming Dynasty, but most of them were small boats, ordinary small boats could only accommodate more than a dozen people, and the goods carried were very limited, in fact, they were just large fishing boats.

Many of the Ming soldiers on the island were extremely surprised when they saw the big boat, and they made noise on the island, but none of the sailor ships dared to go to sea, on the contrary, some of them were originally going to go to sea, and they lowered their sails and returned to the port, and the people on the ship did not dare to stay on the boat, they all ran ashore.

And Yusheng's big ship didn't pay attention to these things, Zheng Shaolai used to drive the Xinpingbao to trade here many times, and then the ships got bigger and bigger, like the Zhenyuwei is a big ship, and Yusheng also has several quite large ships, in the naval division is equal to the tonnage of the Chinese warship, compared to the Dutch ship is small, but it is also a very large warship, the Fujian Navy Division has a few big ships, the Northern Navy Division is not one.

After passing along the way, when they arrived at the sea off Phi Dao, Li Pingzhi and Zhang Xuwen saw Phi Dao for the first time, and both of them were a little curious and excited.

This is also regarded as an extension of the base of Yusheng, there are a large number of barracks and warehouses built by Yusheng on the island, mainly used to recruit Liao people here as soldiers and put goods traded with Dongjiang Town, Dongjiang Town and Houjin are also secretly traded, its trade volume is not small, the recruitment of Liao people is also Zhang Han presided over the agreement reached with Yusheng and Mao Wenlong, for which Dongjiang Town has made a lot of benefits, not to mention, in recent years, just with Yusheng in Liaodong to buy big wood, the cost of silver and personnel has exceeded 200,000 taels, Most of this wealth fell into the hands of Dongjiang Town, but it did not improve the lives of the Dongjiang military and civilians much, and the upper echelons of Heyusheng knew this alone, so Zhang Xuwen and Li Pingzhi did not have a good impression of Mao Wenlong.

Zhang Xuwen's expression was faint, but Li Pingzhi was a little excited, he said to Zhang Xuwen: "Brother Xuwen, look at this island, dozens of miles wide, tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians live here, it was barren before, because the sea breeze is too strong and the land is insufficient, there are only a few fishermen on the island, the land has not been opened, and there is no half of the house, and now it is like a major town." ”

Li Pingzhi said again: "No matter what Mao Zhennan and his people are, hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians are alive, and this merit cannot be erased by opening Phi Island to contain Jianyu's death." ”

Zhang Xuwen nodded lightly and said, "This is a fair statement, admittedly!" ”

The two talked about Dongjiang and Mao Wenlong, but they did not start from personal opinions, but they were fair, and they talked about the heroes of the world who were valued by the people of the time, which added a bit of pride.

However, this heroic spirit was soon destroyed, and when the nearby port was about to anchor, the red flag on the shore was waving, apparently from the nearby Heyusheng warehouse area.

"Combat readiness?" Zhang Xuwen was a little surprised.

……

"Heyusheng has another ship coming, this time the ship is huge."

A small colonel half-knelt in front of Mao Chenglu and reported loudly, Mao Chenglu nodded and said, "Stand down, I'll go and see it myself in a while." ”

Mao Youjun said: "Uncle, it's not a way to be so sleepy, and Yusheng's people can't hold on, and we can't really fight hard, several people have died in the past few days." ”

Mao Chenglu was in a bad mood and in a bad mood, glanced at Mao Youjun, and said: "This matter is the handsome's personal message, since you have a high opinion, then you go and talk to the handsome." ”

Mao Youjun was furious when he heard this, he was also a fierce general under Mao Wenlong, but he was a little late, so he was not a righteous son, but one of the adopted grandsons.

Mao Wenlong has many adopted grandchildren, including many later celebrity generals, Kong Youde is one of the adopted grandchildren, and Mao Youjun is also.

Later, Yuan Chonghuan went to the island to see Mao Wenlong, and saw a lot of outstanding martial artists, when asked about his identity, Mao Wenlong replied that they were all adopted grandsons, Yuan Chonghuan really praised a few words, it can be seen that the people selected by Mao Wenlong were all elite heroes in Dongjiang at that time.

Mao Youjun stood up and said coldly: "I have seen the big handsome to talk about this matter, but what should I do now, please ask the uncle to show me, and I will follow it." ”

Mao Chenglu was furious when he heard this, if Mao Youjun and others had taken him into an army, if he said that he would attack, Mao Chenglu would not be so stupid...... There's no way to beat it down.

And Yusheng's barracks and storage area are connected together, next to the port, all are burned masonry structure of solid houses, there is a thick brick wall more than one zhang high on the periphery, there are perforations inside, there are arrow towers inside, there are small cannons, you can also fire externally, there are more than 300 people in the camp, half of them are more than a soldier, a small half of the soldiers and clerks, Mao Chenglu returned to the island and said that the conflict with Yusheng did not succeed in killing Chen, Liangce, Mao Wenlong was ruined this big thing, and he was furious after hearing the report, Immediately ordered Mao Chenglu to lead the Chinese army to take over He Yusheng's warehouse, detain all the personnel of He Yusheng on the island, and decide how to deal with it after negotiating with Zhang Han.

This method can be regarded as a salary draw from the bottom of the kettle, and Mao Wenlong has no intention of sending troops to conquer and Yusheng to advance to the base...... There are more than 2,000 soldiers from Heyusheng over there, as well as newly recruited Liaomin auxiliaries, once the fight starts, the court will be laughed at by the Dongyu, and the imperial court will also be shocked by this...... The mobilization of the army could not be concealed from the imperial court.

And Mao Wenlong also understood in his heart that the training of the Shangtuan Army was a hundred times stricter than that of Dongjiang Town, he saw it with his own eyes, and the armor weapons were much stronger than Dongjiang Town, such an army, without more than ten times the strength of the troops, may not dare to say that it will win, mobilize tens of thousands of troops to fight, Mao Wenlong of course has this power, but in the final analysis, this matter is his own fault, assassinating the six civil officials of the imperial court, and Chen and Liangce are also well-known heroes in the sea, this matter has spread, and his reputation has been greatly hindered, even if the court hinders the overall situation, he will not change generals, They will also try to limit the development of the Dongjiang River, which is very hindering to the future that Mao Wenlong looks forward to.

As for what kind of future Mao Wenlong wants, I'm afraid he can't say it himself now.

When the husband is in this troubled world, is he really a "marquis"?

In short, Mao Wenlong calmed down after being angry, and thought of such a way, He Yusheng has a lot of personnel on the island, and there are more materials, and it is difficult to say whether Mao Wenlong wants to vent his anger and detain the goods and personnel to negotiate with Yusheng, or covet the treasury of He Yusheng on the island...... Recently, Dongyu has greatly reduced the trade with Phi Dao, fortunately, Mao Wenlong's subordinates are very many, digging ginseng and pearl diving and hunting are not delayed, and Yusheng will come to receive the goods after a period of time, and the trade volume has not been greatly affected, and Yusheng has been collecting wood along the estuary of the river, which is also a big deal for Dongjiang Town, but no matter what, it is better to make money by doing business slowly than to grab money, even if Yusheng and Dongjiang break this matter in the future, the goods lost in the open warehouse still want to go back? In any case, it was the people who made the first move with Yusheng, and grabbed this, Mao Wenlong felt that he was not at a loss no matter what.

How could he and Yusheng's people be too alert, as soon as they saw Mao Chenglu coming with a large group of people, the sentry immediately ordered him to stop, Mao Chenglu used his and Mao Wenlong's power to pressure it was useless, the sentry was ineffective, and immediately shot the police, there was no hesitation at all...... Speaking of this, Mao Chenglu is also angry, he has been a soldier for half his life, how have he ever seen such a sentinel who is not afraid of power and is bold and alert?

Of course, all this is the work of training, and Yusheng's usual strict rules make Dongjiang Town feel very troublesome, and even some rules make Mao Youjun and others feel that they are not necessary at all, but these inconspicuous and unimportant rules, because they are usually strictly managed, do not negotiate, and save everyone at a critical moment.

As soon as he heard the warning, He Yusheng's garrison immediately rushed out, and a round of fire hit the ground, blocking the footsteps of Mao Chenglu and others, because they didn't know what was going on, of course, they couldn't shoot directly at Mao Chenglu, in fact, the distance was less than twenty steps at that time, and if they really hit it, the famous Mao Chenglu would die in this inexplicable chaos.

Fortunately, it was hit on the ground, and Mao Chenglu's white sweat was also shocked at that time.

Fired this row of guns, of course, the people of Dongjiang did not dare to continue to step forward, and then closed the gate with Yusheng's people, and the fire gun was guarded at a high place, and then there were left-behind officials in the high place to negotiate with Mao Chenglu, after asking the reason, and Yusheng officials apologized, although Mao was handsome and generous, and did not order a strong attack, but they were stationed here to guard the warehouse, as for the matter of the twelve regiments attacking Mao Chenglu, of course, it must be reported to the top, and Zhang Han Zhang is the master of the decision, as long as it is the fault of the merchant army, I believe that Master Zhang will never shield his subordinates who commit crimes.

replied so well, Mao Wenlong either sent a strong army to attack, or he was already unreasonable, but the Heyusheng warehouse on Phi Island was so easy to attack? The thickness of the courtyard wall alone is more than three feet, more than one zhang high, and other idlers can't climb up at all, and if the low city wall is even worse, it is tortuous and meandering, and there are hundreds of people inside, everyone is holding a gun, and if you lay down such a place, don't die one or two thousand people want to take it? Thinking about it like this, I was naturally extremely depressed.

Mao Wenlong was displeased, Mao Chenglu was scolded bitterly, he couldn't get out of his breath, and sent a few groups of people at night to climb into the courtyard while it was dark and steal the courtyard wall...... Of course, this is death, and Yusheng's night duty personnel directly shot those people to death.

This time, no one really dares to approach anymore, the two sides have been deadlocked for a few days, if it weren't for the fact that he couldn't get off the stage, Mao Chenglu would have taken people away a long time ago, and the anger in his heart was too strong, and the conflict with Mao Youjun was inevitable.
