After the rainstorm, the haze clears, and the sky is clear, dotted with marshmallow-like clouds. Under the sky, a small boat carrying about a dozen people sailed towards the faint dark color of the sea and sky with clear blue ripples.

Distant dark colors become more and more visible in the line of sight. From the moment he boarded the boat, even when he was on the beach, according to the perspective phenomenon of near and far, Chen Kai had already guessed that it should be the existence of an island. However, it was not the final destination of his trip, at least not entirely.

"Mr. Chen, that is Lieyu, and after Lieyu, it is Nanao Island."

"Thank you."

It was inconvenient to get up on the boat, Chen Kai smiled and bowed. However, the little soldier was suddenly startled, and hurriedly returned the salute, with an excited look on his face. However, among this group of soldiers, the Lin family brothers seem to be extremely restrained, and it seems that the mental pressure is not small.

After saluting, Chen Kai continued to look at the island in the distance, but the emotion in his heart came spontaneously. Pretending to be a scholar is indeed facilitated. However, like these soldiers, carrying unidentified people to see the commander, not only did they not blindfold them, but they also became tour guides who did not want money, and the officers led by them did not react, but it also opened Chen Kai's eyes to this newly built army.

The boat sailed straight to the southwest, and the hunting island in the distance became more and more clearly presented in front of Chen Kai. The shape of the hunting island resembles a cow's leg, so it is also called the cow's leg island. On this island, there were gunshot cities, forts and beacon towers built in the Ming Dynasty, which were thought to be coastal defense. As the distance got closer, Chen Kai also noticed the unnaturally carved buildings on the island.

The city is divided into three parts, the upper seat, the lower seat and the observation deck, which was built by the then deputy commander of South Australia, Li Guoping, in the third year of the Apocalypse. Just as it is written on the inscription of the Lieyu Fortress on the offshore platform, "the construction of the Lieyu Fortress is also prepared for Hongyi", which was caused by the Western colonizers' entry into the China Sea, which led to the aggravation of the pressure on the coastal defense of the Ming Dynasty.

The sea is not very clear, and Chen Kai does not intend to pay too much attention to those military facilities, so as not to be tabooed. Just glanced at it, and began to close his eyes and recuperate, thinking about the next response.

The boat bypassed the hunting island, followed Baishawan all the way to the south, and sailed straight to the port next to the town in the distance. On Nan'ao Island, the officer explained one or two to the officer guarding the port, and asked the Lin brothers to wait at the port, but the officer guarding the port sent a chief to escort Chen Kai to the main town mansion.

The head town is in Shenao Town, Wanli three years, the Ming court built a city here, called Nanao. It is only 72 years old, and it is said that there are still people in the castle who have lived a long time as witnesses to the construction of the castle. However, the reason for building a city and setting up a town here is not as good as the city on the hunting island, but because it has often been occupied by Japanese and pirates for many years, and Wu Ping, a great pirate in the Jiajing period, used this island as a base to harass the coast, and it was Yu Long and Qihu who led the land and water army to attack it before taking it.

When the city was built, due to the huge project, the first deputy general soldier of South Australia Bai Hanji died of illness, so the city of South Australia is also called "White City", to commemorate, and later the deputy general soldier Yan Jifang completed the construction of the city and the town government.

Among them, Bai Hanji was Yu Dayou's general, and Yan Jifang was a member of the Qi family's army. Yu Long Qihu swept away the Japanese and cut off the great pirate Wu Ping, and although they left the place and were sent by the Ming court to where they were needed more, their generals still guarded the key island in Fujian and Guangdong. Now, it has become one of the few occupied areas of the Ming court on the southeast coast, and a starting point for the revival of the Han family.

The completed Nanao City is the one presented in front of Chen Kai, and the city will no longer exist in later generations due to the collapse of the earthquake and the construction of the salt farm. However, at this moment, the sea city recorded in the "Nanao Chronicles" is standing here, guarding the sea frontier of the motherland, which is "sitting in the south and facing north, two feet high, five feet thick, five hundred zhang in circumference, seven feet wide, all covered with stones, and eight feet deep".

Chen Kai followed the officer all the way, entered the gate of Nanao City, and came to the main town hall in the city after a while. The town hall was built the year after the construction of Nanao City began, and it has a history of 71 years.

From far and near, in front of the main town with gray tiles and red walls, a pair of stone lions looked back. The plaque on the gate clearly reads the seven characters of "Recruiting the General", rather than the original "Fujian, Guangdong, Nanao General Town". However, the solemnity contained in it is a thousand times greater.

Outside the gate, the soldiers stood with their soldiers, and the quality was much better than that of the soldiers who sent them to the island. The chief stepped forward to explain clearly to the officer guarding the gate, and the latter entered the gate. The critical moment to decide the first impression of the interview was approaching, Chen Kai did not squint or say much to others, just stood quietly outside the door, waiting for the news of being allowed to enter.

A moment later, the officer guarding the gate personally invited Chen Kai from the side door in. The two of them went straight all the way, passed through several checkpoints without hindrance, and then came to the "headquarters" of the main town government - Hujietang.

Walking up the stairs until the door of the Tiger Festival Hall, Chen Kai stopped, and the officer entered the house to report and tidied up his clothes. waited until the aftermath to step through the door.

Walking into it, you will be greeted by a picture of a tiger descending the mountain, which is very eye-catching. To be looked up, on the picture is a plaque with the words "Southeast Pillar".

However, under the plaque, the coach's seat was a twenty-two or three-year-old young man, wearing a python robe and jade belt, with a dignified appearance, and his eyebrows were even more heroic, but it seemed to be a little bookish inside. However, his eyes are blazing, and he is a determined person, but the immaturity on his face is very inconsistent with the tiger painted and the plaque.

After the briefing, the officer retreated and left the Tiger Festival Hall, and closed the door with his hand. At this moment, in the Tiger Festival Hall, aside from Chen Kai and the young man, there were two middle-aged generals on the seats on both sides who were also wearing python robes and jade belts, most of them were in their forties, and they seemed to be not low.

The door was closed, the light was dim, Chen Kai suddenly remembered Lin Chong's story, and his heart trembled subconsciously. But when it came to this, he didn't hesitate at all, bowed straight to the ground, and saluted the young man respectfully: "Student, Chen Kai, the son of Shanxi Chengxuan's political envoy Datong Mansion, will meet the country's surname." ”
