Let's say that Liu Xia summoned Qin'er to come up, and everyone was surprised.

Didn't you just say that Qin'er had hanged herself, how could she still be arraigned? Could it be—

"Ghosts?"

Legend has it that Liu Xianai is the reincarnation of Emperor Ziwei of the heavens, and the nine secluds of this underworld can also say a few words. Could it be that Liu Xia ordered the underworld to pass on Qin'er's soul?

At this moment, everyone, whether it was the people or the officials, felt the cold wind swishing, and the entire hall was cold and biting.

Of course, this is nothing more than a psychological effect.

In this scene, the most scared person is Naqing Liuren, even if others are afraid, they think that they are nothing, so even if Qin'er's soul comes, they will not look for their business.

But Qing Liuren is different, he knows in his heart that he is the one who forced Qin'er to death.

"Nonsense! Nonsense, Qin'er is dead, how can she still come up. Nonsense! Qing Liuren's spirit is already a little sluggish, and it is not far from the collapse.

In the middle of the conversation, the guards had already brought Qin'er up, and in between, she was dressed in a white plain dress, her black hair carefully coiled around her head, and a few rough hairpins carved from wood were inserted into it. His complexion was as white as jade, but his complexion was as pale as paper. His eyes were bloodshot, and he shook three times when he walked. It was as if the wind could lift it up to the sky.

Weak.

What's even more frightening is that there is an obvious red mark on the neck under Qin'er's white jade chin, which is estimated to be the trace of her hanging just now.

Qin'er's appearance made the people outside take a few steps back in fright. Some of them shouted in fear.

"Impossible! No way! Qing Liuren still looked at Qin'er who walked slowly with some disbelief.

And the Li Wang clan not far from him looked at Qin'er with a surprised face, just now Liu Xia said that Qin'er came up, which only made him frightened, but more than that, he was still happy. Even if Qin'er is now a ghost, what is she afraid of? No matter how you say it, she has a child.

"Jean! Jean, it's really you! ”

Li Wang hurriedly ran over, and grabbed the slightly rough jade hand of the qin, his face full of joy.

"Mother~~" Qin'er hugged the Li Wang's family, her face full of tears.

"Qing Liuren! Do you have anything to say? Liu Xia glared at Naqing Liuren angrily.

At this moment, Qing Liuren was already frightened by the ghost of this Qin'er and was delirious. Anyone who sees a person who he clearly saw dead now appears in front of his eyes again, can still be calm.

"Qin'er, you're not—you're not—" Li Wangshi looked at this Qin'er, she naturally knew that this must be a living person, so she was puzzled in her heart.

Liu Xia has already explained just now that Qin'er is dead, why now-

Qin'er glared coldly at Qing Liuren, who was paralyzed on the ground, and then turned around, and looked at Li Wang's family with a smile on her face: "Mother." Qin'er, Qin'er worries you. So this Qin'er told Li Wang what happened just now.

It turned out that Qin'er knew that she was innocent and had no shame to live, so she took advantage of Qing Liuren to leave the room, so she found a white silk, tied it to the thick wooden sorghum, and committed suicide with medicine.

Coincidentally, when Qin'er just stepped on the stool, put her neck on the white silk, and kicked off the stool, but in a few seconds, the room was suddenly kicked open, and I saw a few soldiers in green camouflage uniforms walking in from the outside, they came in this time with the intention of looking for Qing Liuren, but they looked up and saw that someone was hanging on it, so they hurriedly rescued Qin'er, but because it had been a while, although it was not completely dead, it was already in shock.

The soldiers hurriedly found a few planks in the house, then made a simple stretcher and put the piano on it. As he walked out of the door, he happened to see other soldiers arresting Qing Liuren as well. Naqing Liuren saw the qin lying on the wooden board at a glance, and the eye-catching red mark made him see it clearly. And he also heard the conversation of the soldiers.

One asks: Who is this woman?

A soldier carrying the piano said, "We don't know." When I went to look for this guy just now, I saw someone hanging inside, so I saved him. But looking at it like this, I guess I can't make it. Hey, it's a pity for a beautiful girl. Mother!

After listening to the conversation between the two, Qing Liuren completely believed that Qin'er was dead.

But now she appeared in front of him again.

When Qin'er was carried away, she was sent to Liu Xia's exclusive medical unit, and they all thought that Qin'er would definitely die, but they didn't expect to wake up again.

This is how we have today's scene.

————————————

However, it is said that since Yu Mingjun got the [Zhenyuan], he has stepped up the training of soldiers every day, and has joined forces with some local shipyards to build three wooden sailing ships with a size of 20 zhang. Some artillery was also erected on it. In this way, Yu Mingjun formed a fleet. The main ship is the [Zhenyuan].

"General, I heard that there is another island not far away, and there are a hundred and ten pirates entrenched on it, and they often harass the people of this generation, and I don't know how many people they robbed before we came. As a result, the people now dare not live in the coastal area. Shall we destroy them? ”

The commander of the White Shark Guard, who is now also the captain of the [Zhenyuan] ironclad ship, Bai Menghu said to Yu Mingjun. Bai Menghu was wearing a black standard Yang Weixiao uniform at the moment, his whole body was clean, and the mustache on the top made him even more sophisticated and mature. (The navy's uniform has not changed today, and is still black like the uniforms of other armies.) ）

Bai Menghu is also a person with a good water nature, otherwise he would not be able to climb the position of the commander of the White Shark Guard, the navy is now such a unit, and the importance of its commander can be imagined, and those who are incapable, let alone the commander, even the battalion commander below can't be it.

Yu Mingjun originally had this intention, but because he didn't have a ship, he could only watch those pirates wanton in the sea, but he couldn't do anything. I can only think: if they dare to go ashore, General Ben will definitely let them go around without food.

Now, no matter what, Yu Mingjun can also take four standard warships in his hands, one of which is covered in steel armor, can move by itself, and is equipped with forty or fifty steel cannons, how powerful is this. Coupled with the escort of three wooden warships, who can match it in the Bohai Sea and the Yellow Sea? Of course, the warships of the Western countries have not yet appeared here, but even if they do, they may not be able to defeat the [Zhenyuan]

"Good! This is exactly what General Ben has in mind. Now that our navy has just been built, the soldiers have not yet engaged in actual combat, so today we are looking for a pirate to train and let these rabbit cubs try to try naval warfare. Let's also see how powerful this [Zhenyuan] is in actual combat. But have you inquired about the exact location of the island? And the strength of the pirates entrenched above? "As the saying goes, knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent is invincible. Yu Mingjun was convinced of this, so when he commanded the soldiers in the Sky Eagle Brigade before, or when he was the commander of the Eagle Yang Guard, he always attacked the other party after he understood it clearly.

Bai Menghu thought to himself: Now that the fleet has just been built, the development space of the navy in the future will definitely be very large, and our Greater China not only has the Bohai Sea and the Yellow Sea, but also the East China Sea and the southernmost South China Sea. In the future, there will definitely be a lot of navy, and if I lead the soldiers and horses to win the battle today, my name will definitely be remembered, and I will definitely get promoted and get rich faster and faster. After all, this was the first battle of the Navy, and the general would definitely report the matter of the first battle.

Thinking of it, Bai Menghu was overjoyed in his heart. He was transferred from a regiment of the White Tiger Legion before, and served as the deputy commander at that time, and when he came to this White Shark Guard, Yu Mingjun asked some people to compete, and whoever won was the commander of the White Shark Guard, and fortunately, he won the White Shark Guard, so he became the commander of the White Shark Guard. From the previous Yang Wu School, it was upgraded to the current Yang Wei School, and the official was promoted to two levels.

I only heard him say: "The general can rest assured, these subordinates have already been identified." The island is not far from here, and it is replaced by Hammer Island. It only takes two or three hours to get there. If you follow the speed of the [Zhenyuan], you can reach it in less than two hours. The pirate leader above is a middle-aged man in his thirties who is known as the Mixed Sea Dragon. Called Li Da Hammer, he was originally a blacksmith, but after the Qing army came, he raped and killed his mother-in-law, so he was angry, so he cut down the tartar, and knew that he had caused a big disaster, so he fled overnight, and arrived on the island, with a pair of arms, holding a sledgehammer, and ten thousand people should not be brave. It's kind of a man. He then gathered some people who couldn't survive in these ten miles and eight towns, and combined them to become that group of pirates.

It is not as good as Jiangnan, and there are not many merchant ships going to sea, so there is less oil and water. started to rob the house. But he's also a bottom-line person, who only grabs. Loot property, don't kill people. Moreover, most of the robbers are still those landlords and rich people. He often crisscrosses this sea area, and his water combat ability is not weak. It can be subdued, but this person is also an unruly person, and it will be a little difficult to make him submit. ”

Although Bai Menghu knew that if Li Dazhui surrendered, his natural status would not be low, and he might even catch up with him, but he also knew that only with enough naval talents could their navy continue to expand, and with the capital of expansion, as the commander of the first guard of the navy, he would definitely rise higher and higher. What's more, he is also a person who cherishes talents, as the so-called heroes cherish heroes.

It's true that Lee Sledgehammer is a pirate, but he is also a man who dares to fight the Tartars. For this alone, Bai Menghu would not underestimate him.

What Yu Mingjun wants most now is naval talents, but in a situation where there is almost no navy like China, it is impossible to find naval talents. Even in later generations, it will take a long time to train a qualified admiral. So now, as long as it is a naval talent, Yu Mingjun will try his best to fight for it.

A few days ago, Yu Mingjun sent people to other legions to find people, which made many officers and generals complain about him, but Liu Xia gave Yu Mingjun the right to pick people, even if those generals disagreed, they couldn't do it.

I only heard Yu Mingjun say: "What you said is reasonable." Li Da Hammer has been crisscrossing the sea for many years, and he must have a good strength to survive in the pirate circle. These pirates not only robbed the people, but also liked to eat black. So their experience in naval warfare must be good. This Li Dazhui is not bad in nature, at least he is not like other pirates, he will fight and kill the people when he goes ashore, but he can also let him join our naval force. After you go down, repair a book and send it to Hammer Island, where Li Dazhui is. Let it surrender, if not, the general will lead the fleet to attack. ”

Bai Menghu glanced at Yu Mingjun and said: "General, this Li Da Hammer is unruly, and it is really impossible for him to surrender when he sees a letter!" ”

Yu Mingjun sneered and said: "General Ben doesn't plan to let him surrender like this, if he doesn't surrender, General Ben will drive the fleet over, and take advantage of it to deter the Japanese in other places, so that they don't dare to spread wild in the places controlled by our navy." ”

When Bai Menghu heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he said: "This can not only use force to make Li Dazhui succumb, but also deter other juniors." It really killed two birds with one stone! ”

That night, Bai Menghu wrote a letter of persuasion in the name of Yu Mingjun, which was full of strict explanations of how powerful their North Sea Fleet was and how advanced and powerful the warships were. Let Li Dazhui come and attack quickly. The letter is full of arrogant words. The meaning is to provoke Li Da Hammer, make him refuse to surrender, and then drive over the warship to deter.

Bai Menghu handed the letter to his scouts, who rowed a boat all night and wanted to move forward on Hammer Island.

When the white belly rose in the sky, the two scouts on the boat finally saw the outline of Hammer Island.

Fortunately, this place is only near the sea, and the waves are not big, which makes the boat safe and sound.

Before they had reached the Hammer Island for three kilometers, they saw a fishing boat rowing towards them, and in between them sat four or five pirates armed with sharp knives and spears, one of whom was a one-eyed dragon.

They wore their hair disheveled, and some even cut off their hair outright. Shaved head. Shirtless, although it was in the morning, it was a hot summer day, and it was not too cold. The lower body was wearing a pair of worn-out pants, and the trouser legs were rolled up. Revealing the rough calves covered in leg hair. ** With feet, there are still white grains on it, apparently just under the water, after coming up, the sea water evaporates, leaving behind sea salt.

"Who are you? Hurry up and report your name, otherwise Lao Tzu will cut you down and throw you into the sea to feed the fish! The one-eyed dragon pointed at a scout in his hand, a worn-out knife, and pointed at a scout.

The other three pirates also took up arms and stood on guard.

Because they could see that these two guards were not ordinary people, and they could tell from their uniforms that these two people were certainly not ordinary pirates, let alone ordinary people. Of course, several of them had never seen the military uniforms of the Pingbei Army, otherwise they could see at a glance where they came from.

One of the scouts stood up and set aside his weapon, a bold man, for the two ships were now so close that the one-eyed dragon would have been able to slash him with his broadsword.

However, to be able to be a scout, you must have a good psychological quality, and you must be able to deal with emergencies. You have to be able to speak, and when you encounter unexpected events, you can make the enemy believe you.

I saw the scout arching his hand at the one-eyed dragon with a smile on his face, which was regarded as a greeting from the rivers and lakes. The one-eyed dragon's face was full of pride, but he also returned a salute. After all, walking on the rivers and lakes, it is better to leave a door, and don't do things desperately.

The scout said: "I am the leader of the first squadron of the third squadron of the White Shark Guard Scout Brigade of the North Sea Fleet of the Pingbei Army. Everyone else calls me Water Floating, and my name is Zhang Wei. Today, my family commander asked my brother to send a letter to your great master, and there is no malice. With that, a sealed letter escaped from his bosom.

Although Zhang Wei said it so politely, in fact, it was not in his heart.

"It's really a gangster, a hooligan. I don't know why the commander sent them a letter, if they were allowed to enter our Pingbei Army, I am afraid they would be damaged. “

The one-eyed dragon on the opposite side was stunned when he heard Zhang Wei's words, and asked a bald head next to him, "What is the Pingbei Army?" And what is the North Sea Fleet? ”

The bald head glanced at the one-eyed dragon with fierce contempt, and said in a low voice: "You don't know this, the Pingbei Army is a heavenly soldier and a heavenly general." Do you know King Zheng Liu Xia? The Pingbei Army is his army. A true hero. It seems that the North Sea Fleet came only last year. It was a navy built by King Zheng, but it seems that there were not many warships. ”

After hearing this, the one-eyed dragon hurriedly looked like this, and said: "Brother is polite, it turned out to be the Pingbei Army, no, what fleet is the north-"

"North Sea Fleet"

Zhang Wei interrupted the one-eyed dragon's words and corrected.

"The North Sea Fleet, what kind of letter, show it to me." The one-eyed dragon didn't understand why an officer and soldier sent them a letter to the big boss. "Could it be that this so-called North Sea Fleet wants to give us a gift? Let us rob the people less? I don't know what gifts to give, and when I go back, I have to ask the big boss to ask them for 180 beauties, and I can't cheapen these officers and soldiers. ”

Thinking of this, the one-eyed dragon was even more arrogant, and his eyes were full of words when he looked at the two scouts, boy, I am the uncle. Come and give gifts!

Zhang Wei despised it in his heart, and said: "This letter is for your big boss to see in person, please make it convenient for all the brothers to take us to meet the big boss." With that, the one took out four silver coins.

When the one-eyed dragon saw that he had money, a smile suddenly appeared on his face, and he hurriedly reached out and took the four silver coins and put them in his arms.

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say."

Looking at the appearance of the one-eyed dragon, Zhang Wei was even more contemptuous in his heart, and thought to himself: "Hmph, I'll give you some benefits for the time being, and when our White Shark Guard's warship comes, you will look good." When the time comes, I will spit out all the money you swallowed grandpa. ”
