Stretching out his hand not to hit the smiling man, Zhang Pan, Lin Maochun and a group of accompanying generals guarding Jinzhou City were originally angry, but they couldn't stand Mao Chenglu and his subordinates being greeted like this, and their anger disappeared a little.

Hou San has been standing aside as if watching a play, secretly thinking that the mouth of an official is really powerful, and he can say that he is alive if he is dead.

Under President Wei, if you want to be promoted, you can compare your ability and merit, it seems that in other forces, if you want to be promoted, you can be a person and be able to speak, right?

Or did Mao Chenglu first discover that there was a person with a face, and said strangely: "Who is this?" ”

"Well, I haven't had time to introduce it, this is Brother Hou Sanhou, if he hadn't brought a group of Orion brothers from Weijiazhuang in Liaoxi to help us break the siege, we wouldn't have been able to get out of trouble." Zhang Pan personally introduced Hou San.

Liaoxi Weijiazhuang?

Mao Chenglu and everyone felt very unfamiliar, as if they had heard of it.

Su Yougong's mind was spinning fast, and he immediately remembered that he had detained two big ships a while ago, and also detained two boats full of grain, grass and people, so he whispered a reminder in Mao Chenglu's ear.

"Oh, oh, disrespectful, since they are General Zhang's brothers, they are all friends, please take a seat!" Mao Chenglu heard that it was Weijiazhuang in Liaoxi, and guessed that it was an ordinary big family in the township, although he was very polite, but the expression on his face suddenly became cold.

Everyone secretly thought, this Mao Chenglu is indeed a dog's face, and the changes in the expression on his face are really rich, why don't you keep a smile? I heard that people are not officials, so they despise them like this?

Hou San was neither humble nor arrogant, and said without being salty or light: "It's easy to say, General Xie Mao." ”

The meal was not happy, and the generals of Shuangdao were just polite, and they did not have any common language with several generals in Jinzhou City, and they were basically divided into two sides to speak.

Mao Chenglu was not very enthusiastic about looking for Zhang Pan Lin Maochun to drink, Zhang Pan and Lin Maochun didn't care, they looked anti-guest and greeted Hou San warmly.

These people who have just come down from Jinzhou City have not eaten serious food for a long time, and the wine and food in the camp tent of the commander of Shuangdao are very rich, and a few people let go of eating, feasting and eating, and they don't care whether the group of people on Shuangdao is happy or not.

Mao Chenglu felt distressed in his heart, although his conditions here are good, but what year is it now? There are disasters and famines everywhere, and their food can only rely on the supply of Dongjiang Town, and now Jiannu is besieging Dongjiang Town, when will they be able to replenish food and meat next time, I don't know, why do you eat Haisai so nonsense?

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Hou San never took the initiative to mention the matter of returning food, ships and people, because before coming, Zhang Pan took the initiative to take the initiative to help ask for something, and he was waiting for Zhang Pan Lin Maochun to speak.

"General Mao, this time Weijiazhuang helped us retreat from the enemy, and made a great contribution, and they seized their ships, people and food before and returned them to Weijiazhuang, right?" Zhang Pan said.

Mao Chenglu thought for a while and said: "There is nothing for the people to go back, but the food has been distributed, and the ship has also been incorporated into the queue of the sailors of the two islands, and it has been reported to Mao Shuai to know, so it is not good to return." ”

Hou Sanyi frowned, although he expected that there might be twists and turns in the matter, but he secretly thought that Mao Chenglu was too indiscriminate, right? The Dongjiang Army is such a big family business, is this a bone to cut out two taels of meat? Want to take over our ships and food? Now that Weijiazhuang has abundant grain, the two ships of grain will be lost, and the president should not say anything, but the two big treasure ships are a little valuable, especially the good quality, and they are newly built, and the treasure ships that have passed the test of the strong winds and waves in the Korean Strait and the Bohai Sea can run at sea for at least ten years! That's it?

Originally, Hou San also wanted to find an opportunity to propose to settle people in Lushunkou, build villages, and open up wasteland to live, but now it seems impossible, even the ship has to be occupied, how can other things be allowed?

Zhang Pan looked at Hou San and felt that his face was a little unbearable, he patted his chest to guarantee before he came, obviously Mao Chenglu did not put himself in his eyes and did not plan to give himself face.

So Zhang Pan had a cold face and said coldly to Mao Chenglu: "General Mao, your Shuangdao is under my control, right?" Such a trivial matter, what I said didn't work? Weijiazhuang did help our army defend the city this time, and retreated from the enemy! I think that even if Mao Shuai is here today, he will agree to return other people's boats, people, grain and grass! Besides, you don't need to tell Mao Shuai about this, I will repair a book and explain it to Mao Shuai! ”

"Hehe, General Zhang, our Shuangdao is under your control, but do you have to take care of the army's food and army training? After that, there are not enough ships, there is not enough food and grass, and I will ask you General Zhang for it, okay? Hou San sneered: "Since General Zhang wants to personally present to my father, I should be happy, but I need to wait for a letter from my father before I can reply to you." ”

"You!" Zhang Pan stood up angrily, this Mao Chenglu really swept his face, he originally moved Mao Shuai out to press Mao Chenglu, but Mao Chenglu turned the army into a force and used Mao Shuai to press himself! Communication on this sea is inconvenient, especially in Dongjiang Town, where there are frequent wars, and there is a shortage of soldiers, how long does it take to exchange letters once? What's more, Mao Chenglu is in charge of the sea, whether he will send a letter to himself or not is still a question!

"General Mao! We have been fighting hard with Jiannu for more than 60 days, you have never sent troops to rescue, it is Weijiazhuang's brothers who came to the rescue, and now they are just returning their own things, what are you still withholding? Are you used to drinking the blood of soldiers and being roundworms? Lin Maochun also stood up angrily, his words were ugly.

"General Lin, keep your mouth clean! Who is used to drinking the blood of soldiers and being roundworms? You are insulting our Twin Island Mariners! Mao Chenglu also stood up with a glare, his hands on the handle of the knife!

A group of generals from Shuangdao and several accompanying generals brought by Zhang Pan Lin Maochun immediately stood up one after another, and the two sides were tense, and the situation took a sharp turn for the worse.

"I said, what's wrong with you?" Lin Maochun looked down on Mao Chenglu from high to low with contempt, and it was not a problem for one Lin Maochun to beat three or five Mao Chenglu.

Mao Chenglu was looked at by Lin Maochun, although he was not strong in force, his courage was not small! With a click, the knife was unsheathed and cut in half.

When Mao Chenglu's men saw Mao Chenglu's knife unsheathed, they all took the knife out of the sheath and cut it in half.

The same is true of Zhang Pan's subordinates, although this is Mao Chenglu's territory, there are only a dozen of them, but they are not afraid.

Hou San is used to seeing big scenes, but he is not afraid of this kind of fiery atmosphere, but he didn't expect that he had just eaten and drunk, and the two sides turned their faces so quickly, is this still a peer of an army? And if it's stiff, I'm afraid I won't even be able to get people back, right? Hou San was even worried that Mao Chenglu would have the courage to detain Zhang Pan, Lin Maochun and these accompanying generals, as well as the hundred or so people he brought! It can be seen that this Mao Chenglu is not a good stubble.

But others are standing up for their Weijiazhuang, and Hou San is inconvenient to talk at this time, so he can only stand on the side of Zhang Pan and remain silent.

Hou San actually thought about two sets of plans before coming, if Zhang Pan could help him get people, ships, grain and grass back, it would naturally be the best, but if not, find a way to bribe Mao Chenglu, I believe it should not be difficult. The most feared thing is that both sides choke up and do it.

"If you come hard, I will accompany you to the end!" Mao Chenglu said coldly to Zhang Pan and Lin Maochun.

At this time, Mao Chenglu rushed in a team of personal soldiers outside the account, and Mao Chenglu was even more courageous.

"Mao Chenglu, what do you want to do?" Zhang Pan asked angrily.

Lin Maochun even pulled out the knife at once: "Want to fight? Come! Just come up! ”

Mao Chenglu's personal soldiers immediately rushed in and surrounded Zhang Pan, Lin Maochun and others.

Mao Chenglu sneered: "It's not me who stirred up trouble first!" But if you people from Golden State City want to come to my twin islands to spread wilderness, I am not afraid! Today, not only will I not release food and boats, but I don't even want to leave people, no matter how much I do, Lao Tzu will slaughter a bunch of people now! Smuggling grain in the Bohai Sea is a big crime even if you get into trouble with the imperial court! ”

"You dare!" Zhang Panqi went berserk.

Although Hou San was also very angry, he didn't dare to add fuel to the fire, and now he just wanted to quickly get out the more than 100 Coast Guard brothers who were imprisoned by Mao Chenglu with Zhang Hong.

"Do you think I dare!?" After Mao Chenglu finished sneering, he actually sat down to drink again, and the provocation was self-evident.

Zhang Pan trembled angrily, and looked at Hou San helplessly, Hou San understood what the other party meant, and said: "General Mao, if the food and ships can't be returned to us, please release our people, right?" General Zhang, thank you and General Lin, money is something outside of the body, I want to rescue my brothers first. ”

Zhang Pan sighed, glanced at Lin Maochun, and the two of them nodded together, both saying that they couldn't stand Hou San.

Mao Chenglu smiled triumphantly: "If you want me to say, General Zhang, General Lin, you should learn from the people in Liaoxi Township, every villager knows the general knowledge." In the future, don't dance knives and guns at every turn, catch who and fight with whom, everyone is Mao Shuai's subordinates, what's the good if you get stiff? Isn't that great? ”

Zhang Pan, Lin Maochun, Hou San, and a group of people from Jinzhou City, listening to Mao Chenglu's cool words, their eyes were red with anger!

"General Mao, now that the siege of Jinzhou City has been lifted, you should send us grain and grass, right? Our grain and grass were originally supplied by your twin islands, so make up for the last two months, and in addition, withdraw the next two months in advance, no problem, right? Lin Maochun suddenly remembered something.

Zhang Pan also nodded with a stretched brow, "Yes, this is the rule set by Mao Shuai, this is your business!" ”

"Hehe, the last two months have passed, where can I make up for it? As for the grain and grass for these two months, let's talk about it when we have it ready! Mao Chenglu had an expression that a dead pig was not afraid of boiling water, if Zhang Pan Lin Maochun hadn't made such a fuss just now, he would have deducted a little military ration at most, which is what he usually does. But now, he thinks that since they have all fallen out, it is better not to have a quarrel in front of Mao Wenlong, so it is better not to give any food!

"Ahh Zhang Pan was really mad with anger, and slashed down with a knife, cutting off the waist of a desk in front of him, and the dishes on it fell to the ground with a crackle.

Lin Maochun also raised his knife again: "Mao Chenglu, don't deceive people too much!" ”

Mao Chenglu sneered: "How is it?" We don't have any difficulties, you say you want food, you want food, when we are monkeys? Can we turn food out? How can there be food, don't you guys stick to it first? In the end, you are still as fierce as your grandson. ”

A group of people in Jinzhou City were almost laughed at by Mao Chenglu, they hadn't eaten serious food for a few months, this was still when they were fighting, and they couldn't eat a full meal for a few days, when was they not deducted by Mao Chengluke? Just at this room full of good wine and food, you still have the face to complain?

But being scolded by Mao Chenglu repeatedly, a group of people were afraid to make a noise, because no matter how the soldiers of Jinzhou City could fight, they couldn't beat Shuangdao, they only had a few small boats for comings and goings, and there were no big ships for naval warfare.

Zhang Pan pulled Lin Maochun: "Maochun, collect the knife first!" ”

Lin Mao vomited blood angrily, knowing that Zhang Pan wanted to compromise, and said hurriedly: "General! ”

"All the knives are collected!" Zhang Panmian turned purple, and he let out a low cry of humiliation.

The people of Golden State City collected their knives one after another.

Mao Chenglu squinted at Zhang Pan, looking like a dog.

"General Zhang, we were angry just now, and we drank too much wine, don't worry!" Zhang Pan's eyes were red, and he swallowed his anger.

Mao Chenglu smiled and nodded: "General Zhang, that's right, they are all fellow brothers!" Look up and don't look down, don't always be so atmospheric! These two months' grain and grass, these three or five days, I will have people raise and send it to you as soon as possible, wait patiently! As for the grain and grass in the last two months, Jiannu besieged the city, isn't it? If you were able to get through it at that time, not to mention that there is not so much food now, even if there is so much food, you have gone back less than two months ago, haven't you? Could it be that no matter how much you eat today, you can still make up for two months' worth of food? I can't make it back. ”

"Thank you, General Mao, that's what General Mao said." Zhang Pan lowered his head in humiliation, and his eyes bulged out and fell to the ground.

Mao Chenglu smiled slightly: "Okay, okay, come on, remove all the dishes, General Ben is also tired, General Zhang and General Lin are interested, let's drink it again at night, now General Ben wants to go and rest first, it's lazy." ”

"General Mao, please! We don't bother! Zhang Pan saw that the other party was driving people, so he had to take people to go first, otherwise, I was afraid that after a while, he would have to go hungry, "What about this Hou brother?" ”

"Let go! If you have merit, you can help with it. Mao Chenglu said to Su beside him.

Su Yougong nodded hurriedly: "Yes, General." ”

Then he sneered and looked at Zhang Pan, Lin Maochun and the others: "Aren't you going to be okay if you guys are like this earlier?" What kind of big-headed monster do you always want to charge? For no reason, it disturbed the drinking pleasure of my general! ”

"You!" Lin Mao's teeth clenched, and his fists also clenched, and he was about to grab Su Yougong's collar.

Zhang Pan hurriedly stopped him and whispered to Lin Maochun: "Maochun, don't say it!" ”

Lin Maochun snorted heavily.

Su Yougong smiled shamefully, but he didn't say anything sarcastic.

Mao Chenglu laughed, seeing that Zhang Pan, Lin Maochun and the others were completely convinced, they got up and left proudly, and a group of generals from Shuangdao respectfully sent each other off.

Su Yougong asked people to release them, but he didn't go himself.

Zhang Pan, Lin Maochun, Hou San and others were brought in, procrastinating to go through various 'procedures', and waited until it was dark before Zhang Hong was released.

Hou San was dumbfounded when he saw Zhang Hong, although the defenders of Shuangdao did not torture Zhang Hong and a group of coast guard people, and did not abuse him too much, but for more than a month, he couldn't eat a little bit of food for three days, and he was already hungry and couldn't walk normally, or Hou San shouted that Hong Sheng, who was waiting at the beach, took more than a hundred people from the coast guard to go, supported one by one, and helped Zhang Hong's people out.

Hong Sheng and Zhang Hong are fellow villagers, although they can't talk about how good their relationship is, after all, they used to be pirates in Dongying together, and they were recruited by Wei Gongzi together, so their feelings must be much deeper than others.

"Zhang Hong, you!" Hong Sheng choked up after speaking.

"It seems that there is no less suffering, don't say anything else, carry the boat first." Hou San said: "It is not advisable to stay here for a long time, if you don't leave, you are afraid of long nights and dreams." ”

Hong Sheng nodded, Zhang Hong's men and horses are starving like this, they must not be treated as combatants, he has more than 100 people in his hands, there are hundreds of sailors on these two islands, and there are strong sailor camps as defense, it will definitely not be able to fight, no matter how atmospheric, you have to endure it first.

"Brother Hou, you can go by yourself, let's take a small boat and go back." Zhang Pan felt that he had no face to face Hou San.

"Let's send General Zhang and General Lin across the sea, we just have to go back and wait for our brothers who go north to attack the Jiannu supply line, and stop by the way." Hou Sandao.

Hong Sheng also said: "Yes, General Zhang, don't be polite, our ship will send you over, the sea is windy." ”

Seeing that they couldn't refuse, Zhang Pan, Lin Maochun and others were even more ashamed and reluctantly agreed.

Everyone left Shuangdao depressed, and sent Zhang Pan, Lin Maochun and others to the mouth of the Jinzhou City River, and the two sides took their leave.

Hong Sheng asked the fleet to meet the ships waiting for Tan Maniac and Chen Xun's men, and then waited.

Chen Xun's fleet was smooth and fast, at this time the seriously injured Tan Maniac was still in a semi-comatose state, and the more than 30 people in the escort team who escaped after a hard battle had undergone simple treatment in the military army, but there was no danger to their lives, but they were all very weak.

As Chen Xun's fleet approached the coast of Fuzhou, he encountered a long Flying Fish clipper led by Chen Guangfu, who had been sent by Mao Chenglu to Shenyang to meet Nurhachi.

This kind of flying fish clipper is similar to a dragon boat, the speed is very fast, and many people paddle, but it can only drive on the coast, not to the deep sea, which is easy to be swept away by the waves.

Therefore, although the sea is vast, the wooden sailboats of this era can only dock, in fact, the channel is simple and single.

"Battalion commander, look."

Wei Bao's Coast Guard has no other name for the time being, and like the officers and soldiers of the Army Guard and the Escort Force, they are all classified as squad leaders, platoon commanders, company commanders, battalion commanders, and regiment commanders.

Originally, the positions of the navy were generally much higher than those of the army, but Wei Bao was still observing and training the newly established naval officers, especially the foreign Fujian generals.

"See." Chen Xun frowned while observing with a monocular, "Although these people are wearing ordinary people's clothes, they don't seem to be ordinary people, there are only Mao Wenlong's sailors in this area, and they don't have islands here, what are they doing?" ”

"Yes, this island is not controlled by the Ming army, what are they doing here? Seeing how fast they rowed, as if they were in a hurry, as if they were rushing to the north. "Humane.

Chen Xun nodded: "The north is all the territory controlled by Jiannu!" These people can't be in contact with Jiannu, right? Intercept them! ”

Chen Xun gave the order very decisively! Anyway, they also went out to sea as fishermen in Liaoxi, check it out, even if these people have no problems, they won't cause any big trouble! But if the traitors of the Ming army are really caught, it should be useful.

It's all instinct from a good sea commander! Especially after Chen Xun and other pirates became regular soldiers in Weijiazhuang, they received political education for several days, and they had certain political beliefs and political nerves!

Several Coast Guard officers agreed, and then ordered the big treasure ship to come over.

Chen Guangfu and others went against the current, and in order to speed up, they have not stopped since they left Shuangdao.

In the normal competition speed, compared with the Flying Fish Clipper and the Big Treasure Boat, the Flying Fish Clipper can have an advantage in the short distance, but it is a pity that one goes downstream and one goes against the current, one does not spend effort, and the other is exhausted, so the speed is adjusted.

"Big brother, these two big ships seem to be trying to stop us?" Chen Guangfu's men are humane.

Chen Guangfu also found out, shocked and angry, and couldn't figure out who the other party was.

In fact, the sea ships in Weijiazhuang are hung with a big five-pointed star flag in the middle of the black and red colors, which is very easy to identify, but people in this era are not used to seeing the flag, especially at this time it is late at night.

"Who are you?" Chen Guangfu asked loudly.

"We are Han! Who are you? Chen Xun replied personally.

"Han Chinese?" When Chen Guangfu heard this, he was a little relieved, and said arrogantly: "Get out of the way!" We are Mao Shuai's sailors! There's something important to do! If you are ordinary people, if you don't want to cause trouble, get out of the way! ”

"On this big night, there is no island of yours near here, and then it is the territory of Jiannu, what is your important matter?" In the blink of an eye, Chen Xun's boat was already very close to Chen Guangfu's boat, and Chen Xun asked condescendingly.

"Special mother, what do we have to do, it's your turn to take care of it? Who the hell are you? Chen Guangfu had already seen clearly that the other party was wearing strange things, anyway, it was not the clothes of the Ming army, nor the clothes of Jiannu, so he couldn't help but be even more angry: "Prepare to release arrows!" ”

Following Chen Guangfu's order, a group of his brothers lowered their oars and picked up their bows and arrows.

Chen Xun originally just wanted to interrogate and see what the other party was doing, but when he saw that they didn't say a word, he took a bow and arrow, and saw the weakness of the other party's heart, which further confirmed his previous conjecture: "What are you doing so nervous?" It can't be that you are going to secretly build slaves, right? ”

Chen Guangfu and a boatload of people were shocked when they heard this, and they shouted and scolded one after another.

"You don't talk nonsense, I think you are like a spy of Jiannu!" Chen Guangfu said sharply: "If you don't get out of the way, we will release the arrows!" ”

"Since you're not going to Tongjiannu, what are you doing so nervous? I can't say what to do, hum, I can't say that, so I have to ask you to get on the boat and check it! Chen Xun waved his hand as he spoke, and a group of soldiers bent their bows and arrows, condescending to Chen Guangfu's people.

Chen Guangfu was shocked: "You ...... What do you want to do? Do you want to rebel? We are Mao Shuai's people, officers and soldiers! ”

"I don't care who you are, put down your bow and arrows, if not, I'll count to three, and then order someone to release the arrows!" Chen Xun shouted. Thinking that he has already exposed his hiding and turned his face with the other party, it is better to simply find out!

Chen Guangfu secretly complained bitterly, shrunk his feet, and in the insoles of his shoes, there was a letter written by Mao Chenglu to Nurhachi, and the letter was also signed by a group of generals of the defenders of the two islands. If this is obtained by the other party, it will be a big deal!

"One!"

"Two!"

Chen Guangfu was so frightened that he was sweating profusely.

Before he could speak, a group of subordinates obediently put down the bows and arrows in their hands one by one, and there were many more people on the other side than them, knowing that there was no chance to fight back, so it was better to simply surrender.

And since these people are Mao Chenglu and Chen Guangfu's cronies, they are also a group of people who are good at flattery and have no integrity. Where is the bloody fight with people.

Naval battles are often much shorter than land battles, at most two or three encounters will be won or lost, a naval battle will never be fought for two or three months like a land battle, and it is rare to last a whole day, unless it is a large-scale naval battle, in this era, hundreds of ships against hundreds of ships, this situation is rare, and only the naval divisions of the south of the Ming Dynasty and the Dutch, Portuguese, and Spanish ocean-going fleets have this strength.

"Three!" Chen Xun saw that Chen Guangfu's people had put down their bows and arrows, and Chen Guangfu was still holding his knife, so he shouted 'three'.

"Don't shoot arrows! Don't shoot arrows! Chen Guangfu threw away the long knife in his hand in fright.

The knives of naval warfare are all very long, the blade is long, and the hilt is also very long, similar to the Pu knife.

The knife was thrown on the boat, making a cold crisp sound, and Chen Guangfu and the others on the Flying Fish Clipper ship collectively softened.

Chen Xun had people escorted onto the boat, and each person was carefully searched.

"Nope."

"Nope."

Several sailors in charge of the search reported softly to Chen Xun.

Chen Xun looked at Chen Guangfu suspiciously, seeing that Chen Guangfu was very weak, he kept wiping his sweat, and felt that he shouldn't be wrong, "Others don't need to search, search this person carefully for me, inside and out, let him strip naked!" Take off your pants too! ”

"You! Don't go too far! Chen Guangfu wanted to scold, but he didn't dare to make a mistake, and the protest was very weak.

Chen Xun narrowed his eyes, and Chen Guangfu didn't dare to say any more.

Several sailors agreed, and came to pick Chen Guangfu's clothes.

In less than a minute, Chen Guangfu was stripped of his strips, like a white-skinned pig, with two hands protecting key parts, his face was like ashes, and he was extremely embarrassed.

Chen Xun's sailors couldn't help but laugh, they already had a certain amount of military discipline, but Chen Guangfu's subordinates couldn't help it, they chuckled lightly, they had never seen Chen Guangfu's appearance, especially thinking that Chen Guangfu usually pretended to be very 'majestic', compared with this time, it was even more funny.

"There's a discovery!"

A sailor searching Chen Guangfu's shoes found an anomaly in the insole, opened it and saw a cloth letter.

Chen Xun endured the smell and took the letter to read, fortunately this time was training and literacy, and he recognized some words, otherwise, I am afraid that even the literate people on this ship would not be able to find them.

Chen Xun read it from beginning to end, and saw that the letter was addressed to Nurhachi, and there were a lot of signatures, and he guessed that he couldn't be wrong, this is the ironclad evidence that the defenders of the Ming army and Shuangdao collaborated with the enemy!

"What else do you have to say?" Chen Xun shook the letter in his hand and asked Chen Guangfu.

Chen Guangfu couldn't stand still, his heart was like ashes, and he stammered: "Brother, where are you from?" It's negotiable! As long as you keep quiet, I promise you prosperity and wealth! ”

Chen Xun smiled slightly: "You guarantee my glory and wealth?" Hehe. Shut it up! Let's go and meet with Hou Sanhongsheng first! ”

"Yes!" The sailors agreed, tied the Flying Fish Clipper of Chen Guangfu and others to the back of the big treasure boat, and continued to march.

The more Chen Xun looked at the letter in his hand, the happier he became, knowing the value of this thing, and secretly wondering if Hong Sheng had rescued Zhang Hong and others who were imprisoned on Shuangdao, with this thing, it would be very simple.

After Chen Xun questioned Chen Guangfu, he heard Chen Guangfu say that Zhang Hong and the others were still detained.

Chen Guangfu also figured out where Chen Xun came from, and then remembered that it was Weijiazhuang in Liaoxi, which was the same as the flag on the ship that was seized before, and he didn't know what the other party was going to do to him, so he trembled with fear.

"Brother, your people will definitely be able to come out, as long as you release me and return the letter to me, I guarantee that they are okay, and besides, I will also let my general Mao Chenglu reward you with one hundred taels of silver, how about it?" Chen Guangfu said.

"Shut your mouth! What does the Lord look like a man with a hundred taels of silver? Chen Xun sneered.

"Two hundred taels of silver! Moreover, I recommend you to be an official under Mao Shuai! What do you think? Chen Guangfu hurriedly increased.

Chen Xun didn't pay attention to this guy anymore, and went out directly, too lazy to bother.

Chen Xun's men and horses did not rest at night, and arrived in the sea area of Jinzhou City in the early morning of the next day to meet with Hongsheng's headquarters.

Hou San, Hong Sheng, and Zhang Hong, who had rested for one night and had a full meal, had recovered a little, and met Chen Xun.

Everyone was embarrassed when they heard the news that Madman Tan had been hit hard.

"Brother Tan really is!" Hou San sighed: "It's okay to get cheap, seeing that Jiannu is on guard, why do you have to ambush it?" Someone else is waiting for you to ambush, can that still be called an ambush? ”

Everyone sighed repeatedly, but seeing that Madman Tan was still seriously injured and unconscious, they couldn't help but complain too much.

"What now? Otherwise, use this letter to go to the twin islands and exchange ships and food back? Hong Sheng asked.

"Yes, that's what I thought." Chen Xun said.

Hou Sandao: "This letter is very important, with such a big handle, is it a loss to exchange ships and food?" ”

Zhang Hong also said: "Now that we know the situation of Shuangdao and Jinzhou City, it is indeed a loss to exchange such a big handle for such a small thing!" What Childe wants is to gain a firm foothold on the Jinju Peninsula and do business in North Korea! With this thing, it would have been difficult to do, but now there is a glimmer of hope. Anyway, we will all meet, why don't we return to Weijiazhuang first, make a clear president, and let the president decide in person, right? ”

"It's okay, Brother Zhang's words are the safest, I agree." Chen Xun said.

Hou San and Hong Sheng also agreed, so it was decided.

"What about the people you caught?" Chen Xun asked.

"Let's take it back with us!" Zhang Hongdao.

"Okay." Chen Xun couldn't help but say, "If it weren't for Captain Tan suffering a big loss, we would have gained a lot from returning to the Jinzhou Peninsula." ”

When everyone heard this, they all sighed, today should have been a good day to celebrate, thinking that the president did not know about the loss of nearly 500 elite soldiers, it was difficult to open his mouth to the president, and everyone was clouded with a layer of haze in their hearts.

Everyone was not happy, nearly 500 elite soldiers were lost, a lot of supplies, wine bottles, fire, food, and manpower were consumed, but it seemed that no substantial gains were made.

I can only go home with a complicated and depressed mood.

Wei Bao has been very nourishing these days, and he doesn't arrange many things every day.

Because of the fear of cold, I usually practice and meditate indoors for a while. Then I went to brag with Song Yingxing and talk about scientific research.

The rest is to play football, basketball, and run at the training ground of the escort team, and if you are interested, you can go to the Military Industry Administration to engage in research and development, have dinner in the evening, and deal with various official letters from the secretariat.

If it wasn't a special urgent letter, he usually handed it over to Xu Rui and Wang Qiuya to take the idea, and he didn't bother to do it himself, only signed and sealed it himself, which could not be replaced by others.

President Wei is not happy enough to completely let go and put all the power to his own woman to help run it.

"Childe, the output of textile factories and dyeing factories has risen, but there is too much cloth, so can't they all be given to the people for free, right?" Wang Qiuya took advantage of Wei Bao's tiredness from playing football and took the opportunity to talk about some business while resting on the sidelines: "Do you want the textile factory and the dyeing factory to stop work for a while?" ”

Wei Bao wiped his sweat and drank water, then sighed, "Think about this matter, it's just a small factory with about 200 people, and the output is not much!" ”

Wang Qiuya sighed, anyway, she told the president that if the president paid attention to it, her task would be achieved, and she didn't think about what decisions the president would make.

Wei Bao did not return to play on the field, thinking quietly, he felt more and more that his wishful thinking to experiment with the capitalist system in Weijiazhuang seemed a little whimsical.

Should we first push the feudal economy of Weijiazhuang to the peak, so as to promote the development of the capitalist economy?

If the economy does not develop, how can the system be stable?

"Childe, this is a trivial matter, don't think about it." Wang Qiuya saw Wei Bao in deep thought, and interrupted softly: "We only have 20,000 people, food and clothing, these problems are easy to solve." If it's not enough, it's built, and if it's enough, stop and rest. ”

Wei Bao looked at Wang Qiuya, angry and funny, originally thought that Wang Qiuya and himself were together all day long, how could they smoke some political and economic minds, right?

Although I am an ordinary person in modern times, I am not a smart person, just an ordinary person, but the basic concept is still there, you stupid girl is with me every day, do you think that what I am worried about is only the problem of eating, drinking and wearing more than 20,000 people in Weijiazhuang?

Weijiazhuang is my place of experiment, my base, and my foundation, and my vision is to cast on a broader world and the world, okay?

If the isolated environment of Weijiazhuang cannot be promoted, then the capitalist system will be even more difficult to promote outside!

"Did anyone who went to the Golden State Peninsula get a reply?" Wei Bao asked.

"I haven't had it in the past few days, but last time, I sent a good news, saying that Madman Tan is playing well in Fuzhou." Wang Qiuya replied.
