Chapter 174: Whimsical Ideas

Many counties in Linhai County, especially the villages in Linhai, were visited by pirates.

They don't have the handsomeness of Captain Jack of Pirates of the Caribbean, nor the courage to go on an adventure in the sea. The way they make their fortune is by plundering.

The cruel and harsh sea environment washed away their basic conscience, and their bitter wails were the most beautiful music in the world.

Therefore, when they arrived on land with the storm at sea, they often passed through like a hurricane, and suffered huge losses of people and property. For pirates, the people who have been bullied by pirates have a deep hatred in their hearts.

The emperors of the Great Chen Dynasty did not attach much importance to piracy, and even those who had been at war all their lives did not treat piracy as a major matter.

Pirates are not interested in territory, they are interested in wealth, and they want to whirlwind away the money of the places they pass. They don't attack the city, they leave after grabbing, and they change places to rob. Wait for you to recover here, and then make a comeback when you have money and people. To them, they are like herders, and the people here are round piglets.

They are not responsible for feeding, only for harvesting. No shepherd would sell a pigsty with piglets.

Their way of acting as long as they don't need money makes them just a small fight in the eyes of those in power.

was as violent as the first emperor, and he didn't pay too much attention to them. The emperors who can be recorded in the annals of history are, of course, how many territories they opened up and how large the empires they built, not how many waves of pirates they fought away.

If in the era of the first emperor, the surrounding peoples were very peaceful, and no one wanted to start a war. The first emperor may not be able to resist the irascible saboteurs in his blood, and he will not dislike pirates, and he will not be able to stuff his teeth enough. After all, no matter how small the mosquito's legs are, they are still meat, and no matter how bad the pirate is, he can satisfy his cravings, but it is really not addictive to his lair.

But the time of the first emperor has been unstable, and his energy is focused on the small surrounding countries with strong body and strong body, not only burning and looting, but also asking for land.

The meat on the mosquito's legs, let's let him grow well on the mosquito's legs. The empire was busy fighting wars all around, and it really didn't have time to pay attention to the blood-sucking behavior of the little mosquito from time to time.

The surrounding environment of Emperor Yongming is much better than that of the first emperor, and after decades of fighting, the behemoth empire has some indigestion, not to mention the small countries that can only rely on sports warfare.

Everyone is tired after playing for so long, so everyone washes and sleeps, and has the energy to fight again.

Emperor Yongming happened to be in the stage of washing, sleeping, and recuperating.

He has a gentle personality, and it should be rare to fight such a hurtful thing as a war.

Pirates don't seem to be anything powerful or destructive. They just grabbed something in the city by the sea, and even if they died, there were not many people.

Even on the current border, there will be enemies who are recuperating and sleepwalking to the border city to grab things.

Don't all counties have armies, you can solve it yourself.

The Great Chen Dynasty is so big, the proportion of places that have been frequented by pirates is very small, and there are even fewer places to sell piglets once they gain weight.

The place it was frequented was not an economic, political and cultural center, and there were few scholars, but mostly ordinary people. Those in power who can control the direction of the empire do not feel the abomination of pirates, they are too far away from them.

Pirates are also not a safe profession, and normal people who can stutter in normal families do not eat that bite. The wind comes and goes to the sea, and it is really robbing with life.

So every robbery is regarded as the last carnival of their lives for them, and maybe they rob these things before they return to their lair and are overturned in the sea. All the gold, silver, jewelry, and beautiful women have nothing to do with them.

Treating every plunder as if it were the last robbery in their lives, their perverted moods and methods are simply not comparable to the looting of nomads.

However, their scrapping rate is too high, and their places of activity are extremely limited, even if the means are brutal and the impact is bad, it is only a partial impact. If the top does not pay attention to it, and the organization below is not effective, the pirates will become more and more rampant.

Most of the inhabitants of Rinkai County have heard of the cruelty of pirates, and have an instinctive aversion to them.

The recruits that Ning Xin saw were not recruited yesterday. was able to let Ning Yuan see that they had been taught seriously, and that Ning Yuan had a minimum understanding of them.

After Ning Yuan took over Linhai County, he reorganized the army after careful observation and understanding.

He comes from a military family and has no experience in how to go out to sea as a navy to fight pirates. But how not to be bullied on land and how to fight the enemy, he still has his own set of effective training methods.

When Ning Yuan raised the slogan of expelling the Haikou to recruit soldiers, the number of volunteers who volunteered to join the army increased on a large scale.

He used his connections to successfully win the imperial court's support for their military funds.

After Emperor Yongming took office, the military expenditure of the empire was less than one-tenth of that of the first emperor, and the imperial court was not short of money, and the military expenditure was sufficient.

The original army has not opened a camp for so many years, and has been raised as a rabbit for so many years. After Ning Yuan saw their combat effectiveness, after cutting some of them, the rest were incorporated into recruit training.

The results of the training were very gratifying, and two months ago they successfully stopped the invasion of a group of pirates, and the results of the total annihilation of the pirate squad made a good start to the new training.

Ning Yuan gave the cutest people who had just joined the army, and walked to Ning Xin's side after looking forward to the future.

"Lekang can see that there is nothing."

Ning Yuan pointed to the soldiers who were standing in phalanxes one by one, training with knives and guns in the distance.

"Where there is oppression, there is resistance, and you can't find so many soldiers who train so hard in Beijing. They all look like they have a heavy past of national hatred and family hatred. ”

Ning Xin saw that their shouts shook the sky, even if their movements were not so uniform, they did not reduce the shock to their souls in the slightest.

"Hatred is a big force, and in the past, no one organized it, and some villages formed their own teams. Now that someone is taking the lead, the scattered forces are re-grasped, and the power will grow exponentially. ”

"By the way, one of the people recruited this time is probably interesting for you to know."

Ning Yuan pulled Ning Xin to take two steps to the east, pointed to the front and said.

"No, see that tall and thin man, he's the son of the family you saved from studying. He didn't want to study, so he came to join the army. ”

Ning Xin followed the direction of Ning Yuan's finger and saw a teenager standing in the front row, a little thin but with a straight waist.

Seeing his serious training, Ning Xin inexplicably rose in her heart with a thought that she didn't quite believe.

"He doesn't study and wants to make a career, he doesn't want to avenge his father in the future!"
