"Drive, drive!"

On the coastline southeast of Ningyuan City, more than a dozen sturdy war horses were galloping wildly, bringing up billowing smoke and dust, like the children of the wind, heading straight for the direction of the Green Snake Forest.

At this time, because Xu Changqing broke through the camp of the Goryeo people and captured Jin Zijian alive, the morale of the Ming army was greatly boosted, and in Denglai, the huge food fleet was about to arrive, and in these few days, this made almost all the Qing army rangers around Ningyuan City be driven out, especially in the southeast area of Ningyuan City, there was almost no room for the Qing army rangers to survive.

But Xu Changqing was a little uncomfortable for a while......

The strength of the Ming army made Xu Changqing a little unconfident......

Because, no one knows how long this strength will last.

It must be known that the premise of maintaining this strength is that the battle line extends outward, which requires more energy and blood from the soldiers of all departments!

Perhaps, in these few days of strength, the Ming army will pay for dozens, or even hundreds, of lives.

By this time, Xu Changqing was already very clear about the temperament of the Tartars, and they were afraid that they had already known their identities now, so they might have some ghost thoughts!

Therefore, the more this kind of joint, the more Xu Changqing attaches importance to his own safety, and will never give the dog a chance to sneak attack!

The journey was quite smooth, and I didn't even see a shadow of a Tartar.

Although this is a somewhat coincidental relationship, sticking to the light on Denglai's side, it is undeniable that many things are different from the flickering of Xu Changqing's little butterfly wings.

Before he arrived at the Green Snake Forest, Xu Changqing saw that in the direction of Pig's Trotter Island, there were four large warships at least ten meters long, which were moored in the direction of the pier.

And around the Green Snake Forest, there are many camps, and there are hundreds of people.

Seeing Xu Changqing and his party coming, the crowd suddenly became restless.

Soon, Xu Changqing saw Xu Zhong, Mao Qun, Mao Tiehammer, Douzi and others.

"Haha, Uncle Zhong, you're here! The little nephew is really far away! ”

Xu Changqing drifted like a car, rushed straight to the front of the crowd, directly strangled himself, raised the horse's hooves high, quickly stopped the horse, and then jumped off the horse in a dashing manner, and directly gave Uncle Zhong a bear hug!

If it were ordinary, Xu Changqing would definitely not be so rash, but at this time, Xu Changqing was really too excited to be overpowered!

"Haha! Young master, it's amazing! This has become a guerrilla general, wow! Our Xu family has a future, a queen, wow! Haha......"

Xu Zhong was also in a good mood, infected by Xu Changqing's enthusiasm and vigor, the whole person seemed to be a few years younger, and he couldn't stop patting Xu Changqing's back hard, and there was a rain mist in his eyes.

Xu Zhong and the others arrived last night, but they couldn't enter the city, they had been waiting here for more than a night, and they had already known about Xu Changqing's many chic achievements.

At this time, looking at Xu Changqing's bright red guerrilla robe and the bright red tassels, Xu Zhong couldn't control his emotions for a while.

Of course he knew what Madame meant by sending him here!

At the same time, I can't stop being excited, God bless the Xu family!

This is the ancestor who opened his eyes and wanted to give the Xu family a great future!

And he, Xu Zhong, was already lucky to join in at this time, how could he not be excited, how could he not be excited?

Xu Changqing and Xu Zhong hugged for a while, this is what separated, Xu Zhong couldn't help laughing: "Young master, come, let me introduce you, these people are the best gentlemen in our Xu family firm, this is Ma Luan, Mr. Ma, this is Zhang Hongqiang, Mr. Zhang, this is ......"

Xu Zhong introduced several big gentlemen and gentlemen from his hometown to Xu Changqing one by one, including Mr. Ma Luanma and Mr. Zhang Hongqiang, both of whom were born in Xiucai, not only skilled in business, but also brilliant.

Xu Changqing was also overjoyed: "Mr. Ma, Mr. Zhang, gentlemen, Changqing has saluted everyone." The conditions here are poor, and after a little grievance, I will immediately have lunch prepared. ”

Saying that, Xu Changqing hurriedly beckoned Zhao Zengjin, Mao Qun, and Douzi to go to work and feast on the fish.

Seeing Xu Changqing receiving them so warmly and giving them enough face, these gentlemen, who were not very willing to come over and were about to break up their bones along the way, were soon in a relaxed mood and honored.

Who would have thought that their young master had only been in Liaodi for a short time, and not only had his temperament changed so much, but he had also made such great achievements!

Eighteen-year-old guerrilla general, what is this concept?

It's a precedent for the opening of the dynasty!

They are all forty or fifty years old, and they have already weakened their fame, after all, they no longer have the strength and energy to walk this avenue again.

But at this time, the young master was born out of nowhere, and he was arrogant, which undoubtedly provided them with a new platform to realize their ideals and ambitions.

…

After appeasing these gentlemen, Xu Changqing glanced at Xu Zhong, and over there, Li Hongyun and his Li family had been waiting for a long time.

Although they only arrived this morning, they were guests after all, and they were distinguished guests, so they obviously could not be neglected.

Of course, Xu Zhong understood what Xu Changqing meant, and even together with Xu Changqing, he came over to greet Li Hongyun and the Li family.

With Xu Zhong's experienced and skilled old rivers and lakes here, Xu Changqing is much brisker in all aspects, and after a pleasant greeting, everyone is laughing and sitting around on a few smooth reefs on the beach, waiting for lunch, and then talking about specific transactions.

Li Hongyun looked at the high-spirited swarthy young man in front of him, the bright red tassels on his helmet continued to flutter with the sea breeze, delicate like blood, which also made Li Hongyun feel indescribable in his heart for a while.

Who would have thought that in just a few days, this black boy would actually make such an amazing super feat!

The more we understand the military and the more we understand the situation, the more we will understand how difficult it is to do this!

In the heart of the Tartars, the knife is made, and it is so precise, so decisive, so neat and neat victory, let me ask, even in the whole world, who can have such courage and such means?

Even if Li Hongyun's evaluation of Xu Changqing at that time was already very high, he belonged to the Li family, even if he couldn't make friends, he would definitely not offend!

But at this time, when he really saw Xu Changqing again, Li Hongyun realized that he still underestimated the strength and determination of this energetic young man!

This kid is simply a hidden dragon!

Even, for a moment, he gave birth to their young lady who seemed to have a good feeling with this kid.

However, Li Hongyun quickly came back to his senses.

Even if Xu Changqing is excellent, he is a soldier after all, a disciple of the general, and the risk coefficient is still too high, compared with the prince who is upright and young, there is no comparison at all.

After laughing for a while and drinking some fragrant tea, Li Hongyun took the initiative to bring the topic to the topic, and said with a smile: "Master Xu, look, how are these ships?" ”

Xu Changqing had long coveted these ships, but he forcibly suppressed them, and at this time, when he heard Li Hongyun mention it, he no longer covered it up, and said with a smile: "Li Ye is arrogant." This one in front of this is a little smaller, but it is excellent and thick, it should be our Ming warship, right? ”

Li Hongyun couldn't help but be even more proud when he saw Xu Changqing recognize it, and said with a smile: "Li Ye is really a good eye, this is our medium-sized clipper in the Ming Dynasty, which can take eight. Ninety people, more than twenty sailors, compared with the warships of the Tessians in the south, are not a little weaker. The front is equipped with an angle of attack, and in the middle, it is thickened by fine iron sheets, of which ......"

Li Hongyun also deliberately showed off, explaining this medium-sized clipper to Xu Changqing in detail.

In fact, after Li Hongyun returned to Shanhaiguan, he quickly returned to Ningyuan's side, because what Xu Changqing wanted was just a small thing for their Li family, but he did not return to Ningyuan City, but stayed on Juehua Island.

Mainly because Li Youwei, the young lady of the Li family, spoke, hoping to pull Xu Changqing along.

After all, Li Youwei has stayed on Shark Island and Pig's Trotter Island, and the time is not short, for more than ten days, she already has a certain understanding of Xu Changqing, and knows that Xu Changqing is a character who really wants to do things.

For people like Xu Changqing, even if the Li family can't be wooed, there is nothing wrong with making friends.

Li Hongyun also wanted to build a warship, so that Xu Changqing knew the strength of their Li family, and it could be regarded as being able to shock Xu Changqing.

But what Li Hongyun didn't expect was that he was talking to Juehua Island about the acquisition of warships in a slow and orderly manner, and early yesterday morning, a cronie came over in a hurry to report that Xu Changqing had captured Jin Zijian, the elder brother of Jin Zidian, the main general of the Korean people who invaded the Ming Dynasty, and he was beheaded hundreds of times!

This made Li Hongyun's plan directly disrupted.

He sent the news to Shanhaiguan even if it was a flying pigeon, and Shanhaiguan replied quickly, allowing Li Hongyun to show the prestige of the Li family.

This made Li Hongyun spend a lot of money on Juehua Island to get such an active warship!

Of course, at this time, the warship has been lifespan for decades, and if it wants to really sail far, it needs some delicate rest, but this is a minor problem.

As for the other big ships, they are all ordinary sand ships, so they are not worth mentioning.

After listening to Li Hongyun, Xu Changqing was also in good spirits.

Of course, he understands what Li Hongyun is bragging.

After all, Xu Changqing, who came from later generations, knew very well that at this time, the warships of those foreign devils in the West had already been equipped with standard artillery, and the battleships were all online.

However, the medium-sized clippers of the Ming army also have some advantages, such as sailing speed, such as carrying capacity and number of people, including some designs of sails, which may be more advanced than those white-skinned foreign devils.

Of course, this is mainly based on local conditions, including ocean currents, waves, climate, and many other factors.

Xu Changqing remembered that at this time, the ship of the Zheng family, the richest brother in the Ming Dynasty, was very sharp in the South Seas, and it was a little difficult to use in the North Ocean.

This is because the South Ocean is deep, and the bottom of the ship is pointed, but on the North Ocean side, the clippers are all flat-bottomed boats.

Historically, because of this, the surname of the country suffered a big loss during the Yangtze River water war.

But Li Hongyun can do this, he definitely shows great sincerity, Xu Changqing naturally wants to understand this!

"Master Li, let's not say much, Master Li, your arrogance, the righteousness of the Li family, I, Xu Changqing, remember it in my heart! Master Li, at noon today, let's have a drink! ”

"Haha! It's easy to say, it's easy to say. It is also an honor to be able to drink with a young and handsome man like Xu Ye. ”

…

People carry people, and the higher they lift.

Especially at this time, Xu Changqing's momentum has been completely up, and he is almost famous.

As all kinds of fresh sea fish dishes carefully cooked by a few cooks were served, Xu Changqing and Xu Zhong also opened their arms and drank with Li Hongyun proudly.

At this time, there was no threat from the Tartars, and everyone was in a very good mood, and the wine was also very enjoyable.

Xu Changqing is even more righteous and arrogant, and the bones of Li Hongyun, who is a sycophant, are a little softer.

also made Xu Zhong secretly speechless.

My own young master, this is really ...... It's mature, this kind of thing. Sycophant, his old face is a little indescribable......

After lunch, Li Hongyun was already seven or eight points drunk.

The main reason is that Xu Changqing's grasp of the heat is extremely subtle, which can make Li Hongyun happy, but he can't delay the business.

While drinking tea and sobering up, everyone also began to talk about business.

Li Hongyun said that this warship was given by the Li family, and Xu Changqing's silver was no longer accepted, and the three sand boats were also all friendly prices, eight hundred taels each.

But Xu Changqing directly denied Li Hongyun's method, and the warship, Xu Changqing directly went out to three thousand five hundred taels, and the cash was settled at one time!

For the three sand ships, one thousand taels were paid in advance, and the rest waited for many other materials and goods to arrive, and then found a way to settle.

Xu Changqing said this very sincerely, without half concealment and routines.

Because Li Hongyun was in a hurry at this time, except for the ship, the rest of the supplies had not yet arrived.

Li Hongyun's wine dissipated most of it at this time.

At this time, he also understood that the young man in front of him was not only young and ambitious, but also did not have half of the anxiety and float of a young man!

He built this warship on Juehua Island, but it took more than two thousand taels, and Xu Changqing not only did not take advantage of their Li family, but made their Li family make a lot of money.

After thinking about it carefully for a while, Li Hongyun didn't refuse, but just looked at Xu Changqing with great meaning, and said with a smile: "Master Xu, I don't have much to say about the superfluous words, but Master Xu, your friend, my Li family has made a deal!" ”

How could Xu Changqing not understand Li Hongyun's deep meaning? also laughed: "Master Li, Changqing can make friends with the Li family, it is really a blessing for Changqing Sansheng!" ”

The two looked at each other and couldn't help laughing.
