Chapter 114: 'Xiang Shaolong'
"Is it true or fake?"
Facing Zhang Kentang, Zheng Zhilong had a little smile on his face, but he said unabashedly.
Yes?
Looking at Zheng Zhilong in surprise, Zhang Kentang was a little confused.
Does it matter if it's real or fake? Of course that's important. Heyi wants to secretly build a captive, what is important if it doesn't matter?
Just when he was confused, he heard Zheng Zhilong continue, "I don't think it's important. It's the big guy that matters. The important thing is that Heyi Chen Bing is here, so that I am sharp on my back! ”
Zhang Kentang suddenly realized, and finally understood why the Zheng family and the red-haired ghost had a conflict.
Recently, there has been a rumor in the officialdom of Fujian that the Zheng family wants to make their own foundation in the big office. The news came from the capital and the Hong family successively.
This is not a bad thing for Fujian Province.
Being able to clean up such a powerful faction as Zheng Zhilong without using swords is a great blessing for today's Ming Dynasty.
In this way, it is logical that the Zheng clan and Heyi will fight again with Heyi in order to dominate the army.
"Then ......, dare to ask if you are 100% sure of Zongrong?"
At the beginning of the Ming and Dutch wars, Dutch warships rampaged along the coast of Fujian Province, intercepted Chinese merchant ships, and even shelled China's coastal states and counties, attacking the port of Xiamen. Now Zhang Kentang naturally does not want to see his rule suffer because of Zheng's 'private affairs'.
"Are you 100% sure of the security between the military formations? The red-haired naval guns are sharp, and Zhongcheng is also clear. Zheng can only say that the soldiers under his command are not weaker than others. ”
Zheng Zhilong didn't know how many warships the Dutch could squeeze out to rescue the big crews, but the fleet under his subordinates was really not weak, and after eliminating the manpower from the north, there were seven large plywood ships and five improved plywood ships in Anping and Xiamen. Plus a hundred bird ships and blacktail ships after the reorganization of armaments!
This is the main warship after shaving away many small ships, cargo ships, and merchant ships.
The worst bird ship also placed four large and small redcoat cannons and four large furlong cannons.
The number is far less than the thousands of large and small warships that came at the beginning, but the quality of the warships and the quality of the soldiers are much stronger than they were at the beginning.
Although the separation of military and commercial forces caused the paper power of the Zheng Group to fall off a cliff all of a sudden, the essence of the fleet was gathered, and if it clenched its fists, it would be more powerful. Although incidentally, Zheng Zhilong also took the sheep by the hand, weakening the mountains and branches within the Zheng Group to a certain extent.
It must be explained that the combat power of the Zheng Navy's division is stronger.
From Fuzhou to Quanzhou in the south, it was a blink of an eye.
When Zheng Zhilong arrived at Anping Port, the entire wharf was not ordinarily lively. Gongs and drums are noisy, firecrackers are ringing in unison, red flags are displayed, and people are crowded, all of which are necessary.
Others have been gone for more than a year, and they have made a great reputation for the Zheng family in the north, and even in this land of Fujian, Zheng Zhilong is no longer called the king of the earth or the king of the sea of Fujian, but regards him as a famous general of the anti-Qing dynasty and a pillar of the country.
I heard that Zheng Zhilong had returned to Anping, and the officials and gentry of the entire Fujian and Quanzhou were like carps crossing the river, coming to visit in an endless stream.
Zheng Zhilong was not impatient, and he held his temperament and parried to deal with the visitors. The performance is not arrogant or impatient, kind and polite. Many Quanzhou gentry who came to Quanzhou were greatly satisfied.
This Zheng Zhilong has been famous recently, but he can still act like this, they are very satisfied.
Very standard hypocrisy and grievance snake, very standard smiling tiger.
Zheng Zhilong is not in a hurry. This time he returned to Anping, which was to stay here for a while, but he didn't think about immediately mentioning the sailor to face the Dutch.
Now the stage between Zheng and He is Zheng Lian singing - negotiator.
So, he wasn't in a hurry at all.
Now it is the Dutch who should be in a hurry, because the negotiations between the two have not officially collapsed.
The Dutch fleet could only sail to Geranza and sail to the southern tip of Dayuan Island, and it was impossible to move directly against Ba Min.
It couldn't be better.
Zheng Zhilong and the others knew the traces of the Dutch first. It's much better than looking for it in the middle of nowhere.
Now is not the 21st century of the future, how can it be so easy to go up to the vast sea to intercept the enemy? Only by knowing the exact location of the enemy and even the exact strength of the army, just as in the first battle of Luowan, can we be fully prepared to fight.
The Penghu Islands that fell into the hands of Zheng Zhilong are close to the south of the island, and if there is no problem with the sea conditions, the warships can fight back and forth in a day between the two. After Zheng Zhilong and his fleet are pressed to Penghu in the future, this battle will really be much easier.
"Old man......"
At night, the lights were still on in Zhuang's small courtyard, and Zheng Zhilong just applauded fiercely, and he was sweating profusely. The snow-white body was deceived again.
The palm of his hand brushed over the smooth skin, and a dry fire rose in his heart again. Don't look at his physical body is forty, but Neihe is still a young man. He could not afford such a test.
"Miao'er is still young, and it was when she laid the foundation with her master. The old man suddenly dismissed all the masters, which made him how to adapt immediately. Besides, there are so many courses in the school......"
Zhuang is a woman from a family of merchants, but she is not vulgar and illiterate. But for the first time, I saw that in addition to the four books and five classics, the children also had to learn mathematics, history, geography, nature, physical education, art, and music. It's not that she didn't dare to say that Zheng Zhilong didn't say anything, so she wanted to spray angrily at Zheng Zhilong: What are you doing?
But no matter what, the school-age children and grandchildren of the middle and upper class figures of the entire Zheng Group all go to school in the academy, everyone learns the same homework, conducts the same exams, but the scores are high and low, and the low ones have nothing to say.
Zheng Zhilong rubbed the indescribable place fiercely, this Zhuang family is nearly thirty years old, a little older than his previous life, but his appearance is as beautiful as a flower, and his body is rich and attractive. It was a woman who was more favored in the back house before he crossed over, and also gave birth to Zheng Zhilong's fifth son, Zheng Miao.
After the crossing, Zheng Zhilong also learned the same, and he didn't feel a sense of loss at all.
The name of Zheng Zhilong's heir is very stylish, the eldest is called Sen, the second Tagawa Qizaemon will not be mentioned, the third is called Yan, the fourth is called Yao, the fifth is called Xin, and the sixth is called Miao.
"How can you say that they were all dismissed?"
A slap in the face, it feels super good. Zheng Zhilong's little brother was a little disobedient.
Divert your attention from the master of the school. The curriculum is obviously challenging the personality of some contemporary readers, and Zheng Zhilong insists that it is so, and that can only be so. The masters and Xixi in the Zheng family's back house, only those who are disobedient will be driven out of Anping City, and those who are obedient are not all teaching in the academy now.
Zheng Miao's teacher was not expelled, he didn't adapt, everyone didn't adapt, this is not a reason.
"You protect Xiao Wu, Lao Tzu punished him for his good. The young man does not work hard, and the boss is sad. If he doesn't study hard, he will be lazy all day long, and he will suffer in the future. ”
But in fact, Zheng Zhilong doesn't feel anything about those sons now. That kind of father-son affection, he can't pretend to be it.
Among Zheng Zhilong's sons, that is, the eldest Zheng Sen, made him feel good because of the history of his previous life. The others, I don't feel it.
But he has traveled until now, and he has not yet asked a woman to get pregnant.
In other words, he didn't do Yanagishita Megumi in the two years he traveled.
At first, it was more leisurely, and that was to prevent yourself from revealing your stuffing. Later, didn't you slowly let go of it?
And then outside the customs is because it is inconvenient in the army, but what about Qilu?
Zheng Zhilong has counted many times, but he didn't ask anyone to get pregnant, and he wondered if it was because of the crossing, so Xiang Shaolong was gone.
