In the middle of a question and answer, the two sides quickly crossed the level of strangeness and turned to the direction of friendship, cooperation, intimacy, and harmony.

Zhang Mingyuan also figured out the origin of the other party.

This is a non-governmental anti-Japanese organization spontaneously organized by the local poor people, which belongs to Guanhaiwei, the capital of Zhejiang.

It is not a civilian guerrilla unit that does not eat military salaries, and specializes in fighting against scattered Japanese pirates who have wandered into the countryside and fighting some battles beyond the strength of the regular guard army.

In the early years of Jiajing, the sudden and almost unjustified disaster of the Japanese invaders almost stirred the nerves of the entire southeast coastal region and completely stirred the Ming court.

In the twenty-fifth year of Jiajing (1601), when the Japanese invaded Ningbo, Taizhou and other places again, the imperial court had to readjust and divide the coastal defenses, and reorganized all the guards in the coastal areas of Zhejiang.

The general superior is the staff general, and the commander is under the command of the chief officer.

This kind of setting up several guard posts as a defense area broke the previous pattern of using provincial commanders to command guard posts, and set up a governor to dispatch coastal defense forces in the center. Set up water villages, guerrillas, and patrol posts as the first line of defense below; With the guard post as the center, including the inspection department, the beacon, the pier, and the barracks are the second line of defense on land. The commander-in-chief and the general staff can mobilize the forces in their own defense areas, and the governors can coordinate the forces of the various defense areas along the coast, thus forming a three-dimensional defense system from the sea to the land, from one point to one area, and from one area to the overall situation.

In April of the 32nd year of Jiajing (1608), more than 400 Japanese invaders invaded Nanhui, Chuansha, Songjiang and other places in Shanghai. Guan Haiwei commanded Zhang Siwei to lead his troops to meet the battle.

At that time, there were Du Wenming, Du Huai and his son in Dujiaqiao, who recruited a group of young and strong warriors from their scattered family wealth and organized a civil anti-Japanese team. After hearing the news of the Japanese attack on Guanhaiwei, he led his headquarters to rush to reinforcements, and cooperated with the officers and soldiers of the guard to finally repel the Japanese invaders. Due to his outstanding combat and extraordinary bravery, he was entrusted with an important task by Liu Qi'an, the deputy envoy of the sea route, and ordered the father and son to protect Cixi, Yuyao, Dinghai and other places.

At this time, the two leaders of the non-governmental organizations who met Zhang Mingyuan were Du Wenming and Du Huai father and son.

This time, when the Japanese invaded Guanhaiwei again, they were successfully surrounded and suppressed by the regular army of the guard, but they still escaped some fish. After these dozen or so thieves entered Cixi County, they wandered through the mountains and forests, attacking villages scattered in the mountains and forests from time to time.

After Du Wenming, Du Huai and his son heard the news, they set up a team to chase and suppress, but they were still escaped by the thieves. The two were unwilling to fail, and led the righteous army to chase everywhere, and finally pursued to this place after getting a report from the villagers, but they did not expect to be cleared by Zhang Mingyuan and others.

The two of them have been clearing and suppressing the Japanese pirates all the year round, and have fought countless battles with the Japanese thieves, and they know that the Japanese thieves are amazingly powerful and ferocious, and the Ming army guards are corrupt and declining, and the war is often won less and lost more. Therefore, among the Ming army and the vast number of coastal people, it has long been spread that 'the thief is the devil who kills people without blinking', which indirectly caused the helpless fact that the thief is becoming more and more rampant, and the Ming army is getting weaker and weaker.

And today, Zhang Mingyuan has completed the elimination of more than ten times the number of thieves with his own strength, and he has won a complete victory, how can he not make the Du father and son happy, and he has already started the idea of recruiting Zhang Mingyuan and others in his heart, which will definitely help the smooth progress of the great cause of resisting the Japanese.

"I don't know where Zhang Gongzi's fairy town is?" Du Wenming hugged his fists.

Zhang Mingyuan arched his hand and said with a smile: "I came from the west, I have nothing to do, and I call my friends to do some small business." He didn't know where he came from, so he lied, and it was troublesome in the future.

Du Wenming pointed to Hanpi and the others beside him, and said in surprise: "I don't know where your friend came from?" Why do you look like this? ”

Zhang Mingyuan was speechless, after all, he was of the Chinese race, and he could lie no matter how he wanted, but these African men were not easy to lie. To say that they are Huaxia people, unless the other party is kicked in the head by a donkey or squeezed by the door, they will not believe it.

In fact, he also has a headache and hates God's generosity.

Others are all alone, whether they are giving up or crossing, they are all alone and have no worries. It's good for me, God is a little bit kind of favored by myself, for fear that I will be wronged, and when I allow myself to cross, I don't forget to send a few of my subordinates. But then again, even if it's to send a few Chinese people, you don't have to explain it to yourself once you meet a stranger.

But I actually sent a few African big men, which was really annoying.

The Ming Dynasty also paid attention to appearance, the rich and noble people went out, and the entourage around them was not the image of Zhou Zheng, who hugged each other before and after, and the style faintly appeared. As for himself, when he went out, there were more than a dozen black African men dressed in Ming Dynasty costumes behind him, and that feeling was simply a terrible scenery.

Chinese costumes are not something that can be controlled by a black African man.

There is also an unspeakable secret, more than a dozen African men are around, and it is easy for people to misunderstand that aspect.

Ay! Try your best to lie! Who made Hanpi and the others show cute expressions again, Zhang Mingyuan couldn't stand this the most.

"Well, this one!" Scratching his head vigorously, Zhang Mingyuan rubbed the corners of his mouth again, took a long breath, bared his teeth and grinned: "They are all merchants in the Western Regions who admire my Daming and are deeply impressed by the splendid Daming, and they also have great admiration for my little brother and my character. ”

Du Wenming: "..........."

Du's father and son looked at each other, and the few words that were not ashamed made the father and son speechless.

Although he has never been to the border of the Western Regions, he has lived a long time, and he has heard of the merchants of the Western Regions who come and go to Daming to do business, and he knows a little about their appearance. It's also an alien look, although it also has a high nose bridge and blue eyes, but this skin color, lips, and appearance don't seem to be as prominent as the few in front of you, right? But I can't help believing that this should be the most official answer of the parties, who will let the family have the final right to interpret?

Zhang Mingyuan never thought that his lies full of loopholes could completely win the trust of the other party, he only hoped to alleviate the other party's doubts a little, and then show admiration in a smooth manner and give himself a haha, saying 'long admiration, long admiration, like thunder....' and other words down the steps, leaving him face without a trace, hello, I am good, everyone, everyone is happy.
