Zheng Zhilong's chicken soup poured into the morale of the main characters under him, but they were all high-level in Zheng Jun's sailors, but they could not represent the thoughts of the grassroots and low-level people.

This time, the Zheng group and the Dutch fought again, and the morale of the army was naturally not bad, but it was obviously not as high as when they were in the previous battle of Luowan, which is obvious to all.

The reason is simple, the Dutch were not as arrogant as last time, intercepting merchant ships and shelling the coast of the port. Zheng Zhilong did not suffer the slightest loss, let alone award a heavy bonus.

In the original Battle of Xiamen, Zheng Zhilong suffered the heaviest loss, and the lost men and horses were both subordinates and sea brothers. Therefore, in addition to the rewards officially arranged by the Ming Dynasty, Zheng Zhilong himself also used his own small treasury. A reward will be given to the opponents: each participant will be given two taels of silver, and if the battle is prolonged, an additional five taels will be given. Each fireship was 16 men, and if the Dutch ship was burned, two hundred taels of silver (16 cents) were given, and a Dutchman's head was given fifty taels of silver. That's a lot of money. The high reward and the anger aroused by the damage to his family and the righteousness of the rivers and lakes made Zheng Zhilong's subordinates morale high.

But this time, Zheng Zhilong did not issue a reward, but just ordered that each of the participants in the battle would give two taels of silver, and a Dutchman would give fifty taels of silver.

Each person is given two taels of silver, which is not low. Zheng Zhilong's money is real, and there is absolutely nothing to float. What about the promotion fee of the Ming army? On the surface, it looks similar to this, but if you add the interception of officials, the number of soldiers who really get their hands is far less than this.

It is good for a man to have a tael of silver on his head, and a penny for a soldier to be a soldier.

It stands to reason that Zheng Jun should be content.

But I'm afraid of comparisons in everything.

The old man at the time of the Luowan War, there are still many people in the army today. The contrast between before and after is not small, and the morale of the army is not as in full swing as before.

Besides, don't talk to them about national righteousness or civilization disputes, they don't understand this, and they don't like to hear about it.

For Zheng Junshui's words, everything is not as good as real gold and silver.

This is the disadvantage of Zheng Jun's perennial krypton!

Although krypton gold is cool for a while, krypton gold has always been cool. However, as a traverser, Zheng Zhilong obviously didn't want to see his army as a team that would be demoralized without Krypton.

More importantly, he was reluctant to associate the word "krypton" with "real money" from beginning to end. If this is always the case, how will he raise an army?

Such a team is not bad, but the cost is too great, and Zheng Zhilong, who has only a few tens of thousands of people, can't afford to raise it, but if he wants to raise one or two hundred thousand people like before, it is beyond his reach.

The previous Zheng group had 120,000 people, and that was because the group was not divided into military and commercial groups, so it could feed so much.

But now that Zheng Zhilong has separated the military and business, those ships engaged in business will not have his share of the profits in the future. At most, pay a tax to buy a flag.

This is the interest that Zheng Zhilong gave up, otherwise, how can the separation of military and business be successfully completed?

Zheng Zhilong compensated his old subordinates for the share he got, so no one can say that he is not righteous, cold-blooded or the like.

One of his main goals now is to associate the word 'gold' in krypton with the land. This is the most correct opening mode for krypton.

Picked up a silver medal and weighed it, and it weighed half a catty. It seems that half of a person's palm is the size, surrounded by dragon patterns, and the four big characters of "Son of Heaven Rewards" are cast in the middle.

That's a good thing.

Emperor Chongzhen gave him a wake-up call, why didn't he think of the medal in the first place?

Isn't the silver medal and medal in front of you all the same meaning?

If it weren't for the word in the news from the capital, Zheng Zhilong would have really forgotten the medal.

Now it's finally time to wait for that.

"Commanded to go down. For the 1,000 taels of silver given by the emperor, I will make a first-class silver medal with 100 sides and 3 taels, a second-class silver medal with 200 sides and 2 taels, and a third-class silver medal with 300 sides and 1 tael. After the war, the soldiers were rewarded for their meritorious deeds. Those who win the first-class silver medal can get 100 acres of fertile land in the majority; Those who win the second-class silver medal can get 50 acres of fertile land in the majority; Those who win the third-class silver medal can get 30 acres of fertile land in the big department. ”

The Dutch collected 18 stone per year of Jiatian (about 11 acres) in Dayuan, and also levied a heavy poll tax and various harsh taxes, which could still allow more than 10,000 Han immigrants in the south of the island to maintain their lives. Zheng Zhilong's reward field is now worth high or low, you can imagine whether it is high or low.

Zheng Hongkui is very clear about Zheng Jun's current situation, but Zheng Zhilong's consideration is not too much. If you want to rely on gold and silver to settle everything, the scale of Zheng Jun can be supported at the moment, but thinking of your brother's ambitions, then change is necessary.

After all dynasties seized the world, did the new emperor have to divide the fields and divide the fields?

Just look at Zhu Hongwu, a guard system, and take care of all the hundreds of thousands of soldiers and soldiers under his command. Although there were deserters in the early years of Hongwu, at least this didn't cost real money, didn't it?

The land is laid there, and whoever holds the sword in his hand will hold the land. But gold and silver are floating wealth, like flowing clouds, the amount is uncertain and unstable, how can we ensure that it can be supplied at all times?

Therefore, the Zheng family must change.

When the news reached the port, the soldiers heard the crowd and moved, cheering like thunder, and the reaction was hot, as if the acres of fertile land were already theirs. This also seems to show that Zheng Zhilong's charter is useful.

After that, the day of the departure of the army soon came. The time is set for the fifth day of June. Because of the long winds and high waves at sea in summer, once this day is set, it cannot be changed.

At the dinner party on the fourth day of junior high school, Zheng Zhilong couldn't help but drink cup after cup.

It's dangerous to fight at sea. Once defeated, it is difficult to escape. The danger of this battle is even higher in his eyes than the battle of Yanzhou!

However, Zheng Zhilong's cards have to be held up.

In all the previous naval battles, Zheng Zhilong was the first to take the lead, and if the command was determined in the battle, the enemy was broken between the palms.

Now, he has crossed over, but he can't destroy his morale by himself.

At this time, he personally went south in order to support the momentum of Zheng Jun's sailors. Otherwise, he would not have personally led the troops south.

Even if it's that Penghu!

Because he really didn't have much confidence in naval warfare. This battle is really fighting, and he has to think of ways to hide.

"Master, take a sip of honey."

Zheng Zhilong didn't drink too much, but he was a little drunk. When I opened my eyes, I saw that Yan was holding a bowl of honey water, and he drank it since he took it.

"Master, do you want the concubine to arrange someone to serve you for one night?" When Mrs. Yan said this, there was no trace of reluctance on her face.

Such a husband and wife have long been their usual mode of getting along.

Who called the combination of Yan and Zheng Zhilong a choice that was forced to make a choice? She wants to protect the remaining bloodline of the Yan family since marrying the final victor, and Zheng Zhilong also needs a Yan daughter to show her "rightful" heir status.

The two are a very obvious "political" marriage. What other feelings can there be? Moreover, after Zheng Zhilong took over Yan Siqi's industry, he was very wary of the Yan family. Just like the old Zhu family to the local vassal king, they can't wait to be encircled and raised as pigs.

But even so, Mrs. Yan also has an extraordinary status in Zheng Zhilong's back house, but she is clear and measured, except for the things in her own house, she doesn't interfere at all.

People are also like wooden people, just want to make the bloodline of the Yan family live in peace, and they are satisfied.

The two have been married for more than ten years, and it is really a polite stroke.

Zheng Zhilong also gave her face, and he had to stay in her room on the fifteenth day of the first month of the month, but he only slept with a cloth sheet. I couldn't even say a few words overnight.

Sex was broken many years ago.

There are two brightly colored maids beside Mrs. Yan, and they are used to serve Zheng Zhilong.

But this time Zheng Zhilong didn't have any thoughts.

Nothing to say the next night.

Early in the morning of the second day, the Zheng family gathered at the courtyard to say goodbye, Zheng Zhilong said goodbye to the 'wife and children' behind him, turned over the horse, and led people to the port.
