Cui Xiuning first said the astronomical seizure, and Li Luo was extremely excited when he heard it. Pu's floating wealth and ordnance ships are basically cheaper.

This once again shows that there is no faster way to get money than robbery. Is... Pu fell, Li Luo was full!

Cui Xiuning talked about Pu Shougeng and several traitors, "They are locked up in Haidong Prison and have not been dealt with." Didn't you have to go to Haidong before you set out? Dispose of it yourself. The immigrants of Fujian all asked for Pu Shou Geng Ling Chi or peeled last. Hey, it's cruel, I can't give this order. ”

Li Luo nodded: "I'll come." Pu Shougeng really can't kill his head, and he must be sentenced to death. This is not for revenge, but to set an example, to deter people, to set a negative example, and to raise the cost of treason and massacre to a daunting height. ”

Cui Xiuning said: "Of the 20,000 immigrants in March, another 1,000 recruits were selected. At present, the army and navy of Haidong, including new recruits, have reached 10,000. Among them, Zheng He's naval army expanded to 4,000. The army expanded to 6,000, including 2,000 cavalry from Hugu. In addition, there are three hundred public security police, dozens of spies. The military and police are special, only the gendarmes are missing. ”

"I expanded the number of peasants to 10,000 people. The peasant soldiers only participate in some training during their spare time and give some subsidies. Although they had no armor, they had all the weapons, and they were fully capable of assisting the regular army in combat. ”

Li Luo said with a smile: "Haidong now has a population of only 120,000, but there are 10,000 regular troops and 10,000 peasant soldiers. This mobilization force is comparable to Nurhachi's Eight Banners. By the way, how are the two 500-ton Luoning new warships built? ”

Cui Xiuning replied: "Two or three thousand people work in the assembly line, and they work day and night for half a year, and the wages are more than 10,000 taels. Now it is 80% complete, and it will be launched in a month. ”

Li Luo was relieved. With two new sail warships with advanced performance, he is more sure of his expedition.

Cui Xiuning also mentioned the grain that Li Luo cared about, "All the new immigrants have planted grain, and the summer grain will be bumper in June." It is estimated that the summer grain will cost more than 500,000 koku, and the grain tax will be more than 100,000 koku by then. Sugarcane and cotton have been planted on 1,000 acres, and they will be planted on a large scale next year. ”

"Four thousand pairs of new-style armor have been produced, and by the time you go on the expedition, five thousand pairs of composite armor and one thousand Japanese-style leather armor should be available."

"Shengban is completely afraid of us now, huddled in the mountains, and no longer dares to come out to harass. Still, they're forming alliances. But the tribes were noisy and the bonding was slow. I estimate that within half a year, their alliance will not be formed. ”

Li Luo thought for a moment, "Let's not stop Shengfan from forming an alliance. Sheng Fan hid in the mountains, and they did not belong to each other, so it was difficult to exterminate them. It's better to let them form an alliance. When their alliance is formed, they will definitely be arrogant, and it is inevitable that they will go out of the mountain in a big way. ”

Cui Xiuning agreed: "I also think so, give them the opportunity to unite calmly, let them take the initiative to invade the mountains, and we can complete the battle on the plains." ”

Li Luo said: "On this expedition, Jianghua Sailor, Xiangyong, Haiyong, Ninghai Prefecture Sailor Thousand Households, I will take them all." As the Ming Road Army. Three days after my departure, 2,000 sailors, 2,000 cavalry, and 2,000 infantry were dispatched from Haidong as a dark route army. ”

The Ming Road Army belonged to the battle sequence of the Yuan Army, and it was an upright official army of the Japanese army. And the Dark Road Army is completely a soldier and horse that the Yuan Court does not know. The way to disguise the existence of this dark road army is to use hurricanes. When the main force of the Yuan army was wiped out and the generals fled back to China, who would know that there was a dark road army in the army of the Japanese army?

Cui Xiuning said: "The regular army left in Haidong only has 2,000 sailors and 2,000 infantry. Well, plus 10,000 peasant soldiers, it is enough to guard Haidong. ”

Li Luo said with a smile: "This time, Huang Buhua and other dog officials actually sent people all the way to Jinan and other places to spread the news that Ninghai is good, come to Ninghai quickly." More than 20,000 displaced people were deceived to come to Ninghai Prefecture. ”

Cui Xiuning snorted, "This scalper is really bad, he has no bottom line for money, he should be shot." However, he objectively helped us in this way, and Haidong was able to increase its population by more than 20,000. ”

Li Luo shook his head: "The people have never believed in officials, but they are the easiest to be deceived by officials, which is really interesting." ”

Cui Xiuning sneered: "This is like a woman." Women have never trusted men, but they are the most easily deceived by men. Philosophical, right? ”

Li Luo touched her hand, "I didn't lie to you, and no one else can fool you." There's something important that I want to talk to you about. Now Haidong has more and more people, and the system is more and more sound. But we... The name is not right. Do you understand? ”

Cui Xiuning nodded: "I've also thought about it, it's indeed a problem." The order of Luoning County is Lin Biju, not you. Although you are the owner of the Luoning Society, the Luoning Society is a community organization after all, not an official government, and it is impossible to govern Haidong in a justifiable manner. ”

Li Luo patted her hand affectionately, "Madame knows the heart of a husband, that's the truth." Therefore, I am ready to give myself a title, a title that can justifiably rule Haidong. ”

Cui Xiuning frowned: "Do you want to build a country and become a king?" Too early, right? ”

Li Luo smiled dumbly, "With a small population in Haidong, isn't it a joke to build a country and be called king?" I'm not so floating. I want to follow the example of the princes of the Zhou Dynasty and establish a princely state. With a population of more than 100,000, they are almost qualified to establish a Hou State, right? ”

Cui Xiuning understood, "I don't know much about this history. I think it's about the same. In other words, you're going to make yourself a marquis, right? ”

Li Luo shook his head. "You've watched too many TV series, right? What a Hou Ye. I want to be called the prince of the country, the prince, not the empty marquis who only has a title and no feudal country. ”

Cui Xiuning smiled, "Okay, Jun Hou, not Hou Ye." And what about the name of your princely country? Is it Tang or Haidong? ”

Li Luo said: "It stands to reason that the ancient vassal states, except for the Zhongshan Kingdom established by a barbarian, and the country name in Zhuxia, there are no two words. Therefore, Haidong is definitely not good, it is not in line with tradition. ”

Cui Xiuning said: "That's Tang Guo, your title is Tang Hou?" ”

Li nodded solemnly: "Tang Guo." I, Li Zhongzheng, am Tang Hou. You are Mrs. Tang Hou. Since it is a marquis country, of course, it is necessary to open a court and establish a society. Luoning County was legally placed under the Tang court. The chief official of the county government is also a court secretary and doctor for the time being. ”

Cui Xiuning was stunned and said, "Are you going to be retro?" A doctor and a doctor? ”

Li Luo explained: "Retro can't be said. But this kind of small country is just right to borrow the shell of the princes of the Zhou Dynasty, and the setting of the imperial court is simple enough, and the monarch is the lord, and the power can also go directly to the village and the countryside. ”

Cui Xiuning sneered: "That... Lord Wait, do you still want to be called a lonely widow? ”

Li Luo smiled: "Although the princes and monarchs do claim to be widows, I really can't open my mouth, I'm too shy." Call yourself me. ”

April 26. Sunny to cloudy with light winds.

I woke up in the morning and remembered last night, and I still felt hot on my face. Although I knew that I would have this day with him sooner or later, I was still panicked once it came. Fortunately, it wasn't as painful as I expected.

From then on, it can really be regarded as a married woman. My fate and his destiny have been completely and completely integrated, and they can no longer be separated. However, there is no wedding dress, no wedding, which has to be said to be a big shortcoming.

Luckily, the person I married was someone I had already fallen in love with. With this one, it is actually enough to make up for it.

I thought it would be inconvenient to walk today, but now I find that it is not that serious at all, and I think too much...... Li Luo, maybe he's been suppressed for too long, he can really toss people, and he can't be so presumptuous anymore.

Li Luo said that he wanted to establish the Tang State and called himself the Marquis of Tang. In fact, I know why he must be in time to create a national construction number before the expedition. Because, he was afraid that he himself would not come back.

His plan was that if he couldn't come back, if I gave birth to a son, I would be able to inherit the title of Marquis of Tang smoothly.

Thinking that he was about to go to the expedition, I was very worried and reluctant. I really feel the state of mind of a penitent husband looking for a marquis now.

…………

In the next few days, Li Luo and Cui Xiuning really started their honeymoon life. During the day, it is like glue, the honey is mixed with oil, and every night it is necessary to follow humanity and practice riding and archery. This matter in the boudoir is really hard to say, and it cannot be said by outsiders.

Cui Xiuning also changed from being reserved and nervous at the beginning, and slowly became calm, and became more and more on the road.

Not only Li Luo, but also Cui Xiuning, who also wanted to conceive at this time, the two of them did not fall for a day, and they seemed to be a little difficult to control.

On 3 May, the Privy Council of the Metropolitan suddenly issued an order to Ninghai Prefecture.

The order said: "The order of the Privy Council of the Great Yuan, Ren Zhongshu is directly subordinate to Dalu Huachi Li Luo in Ninghaizhou, and is the general of the Eastern Army of Goryeo and the leader of the Goryeo Army to guard Yu Hou, and orders the officer to lead the officers and troops of the department to go out with Jin Fangqing, the marshal of the Eastern Capital of Goryeo. Before May 30, be sure to be in Goryeo Hepo, and if you miss the deadline, you should be killed. This order! ”
