At the time of training, the Ming Navy had a clear but not on paper rule - when going to sea, you must carry some tattered things from the Tang and Song dynasties with the ship, and if you can't find it, you can bring some things from the Yongle period, and then bury them on the newly discovered land.

If it really can't be proved that this place was once ruled by the Tang and Song dynasties, it will be planted on the head of the Three Treasure Eunuchs, saying that the Three Treasure Eunuchs have come, and this land will be classified as a subject country - if anyone does not believe it, the Ming Dynasty Emperor Shi Chen will prepare enough evidence.

Now when he heard the barbarian opposite, Cartier, who claimed to be the governor of New France, say that it was possible that he had buried it, Zhang Kewang's face couldn't help but turn red, and he said angrily: "Nonsense! The eunuch of the Three Treasures went to the West seven times that year, and he had been here and had seen the remnants of Yin Shang here, and this place must be owned by my Ming Dynasty! ”

Katyre said, "Remnants? Is there any evidence? Of course, the evidence I'm talking about is not the things you buried, but the witnesses, can there be witnesses? ”

Zhang Kewang said: "More than two hundred years have passed, where can I look for it?" It is two hundred years, and this place is still a subject country of my Ming Dynasty, and when the barbarians occupy the land of the Celestial Empire, their crimes should be punished! ”

Although he couldn't understand what Zhang Kewang was saying, Katier could still guess some from Zhang Kewang's somewhat angry look, and immediately raised his hand and ordered his subordinates to start guarding.

As the French soldiers began to be on guard, Zhang Kewang's men also began to be on guard - Zhang Kewang's side was a complete thousand households, nearly ten times more than the barbarians on the other side.

Cartier was also aware of the difference in numbers between the two sides, and said angrily: "If you give up more than two hundred years here, this place will naturally belong to the great France, not you!"

If you want to fight, then let's fight! There are many of you, but there will be more soldiers in great France! ”

It's just because they looked at you in the crowd one more time - for very real reasons, Zhang Kewang and Katier looked at each other unpleasantly, and then they started the film directly.

Possessing the advantage of numbers and equipment, Cartier was quickly tied up and sent to Zhang Kewang.

Looking at Katier, who was still full of dissatisfaction, Zhang Kewang smiled and said, "Now, who should own the land here?" ”

Cartier said angrily: "Naturally, it is the great France! ”

Zhang Kewang said helplessly: "Look, there's no way to continue the conversation - pull it down, cut it." ”

After listening to the interpreter's translation, Katiel suddenly struggled frantically: "No! I'm a nobleman, I'm a gentleman, you can't do this to me! ”

It wasn't until Cartier's head was sent over that Zhang Kewang looked at the translator: "What was this barbarian calling just now?" ”

The translator said: "Just now, this barbarian said that he is a poet and calligrapher, and you can't kill him directly." ”

Zhang Kewang snorted hatefully and said: "Zai Du is slaughtered, where did so many things come from, and a barbarian reader can also be called a poet and a scholar?" ”

After finishing speaking, Zhang Kewang continued: "Pay attention, scatter the scouts, the first thousand households are ready to attack, the left and right thousand households are ready to be on guard, the middle thousand households continue to build camps, and the last thousand households continue to farm!" ”

As Zhang Kewang's order was carried out, a large number of scouts began to be scattered, and began to explore directly towards the surrounding locations, intending to find out if there were any other barbarians.

The left and right thousand households began to put out a series of dead weapons, and began to carry out combat readiness patrols, only the middle thousand households and the latter thousand households continued to farm and repair the camp.

The news brought back by the scout also gave Zhang Kewang a headache.

There are not many barbarians nearby, and there are not many people in a few places occasionally, but farther away, especially in places that are biased towards the south, a large number of barbarians have begun to appear, and even their weapons and equipment will not be similar to those of Daming.

For the weapons of the barbarians, Zhang Kewang still has a little bit of a number in his heart, after all, Katier and his subordinates also used firecrackers before, although they are not as good as Daming's firearms, the gap is not worlds apart.

To put it simply, the integrated guard led by Zhang Kewang has already stabbed the hornet's nest.

Now many barbarians in other places have begun to send people to find Katiel, if these barbarians finally gather in the direction where Zhang Kewang and the others are, and Zhang Kewang and the others can't hold Zhang Xianzhong back, then the matter will be really big.

At this moment, Zhang Kewang didn't even have the mood to farm, and after gathering all the five thousand households together, Zhang Kewang said directly: "What do you think?" It won't be long before these barbarians find here, and there must be no more to say about the rest of the matter? ”

Qian Haidao: "We are a reorganized guard, if we stick here, sooner or later the ammunition will run out, and the barbarians have occupied this place for many years, and it is very likely that they will have their own firearms factory, that is, we will suffer losses in firearms." ”

Zuo Qianhu Lu Bing said: "Judging from the intelligence in front of us, these barbarians also have a large number of artillery in their hands, and the ammunition is estimated to be sufficient, even if we want to defend the city here, we may not be able to consume more energy than them."

Therefore, the lowly position thought that we could take the initiative to attack first, relying on the four thousand houses in our hands, to attack the barbarians first, whether it was destroying their ammunition reserves or disrupting their assembly plans, it would delay for some time. ”

Zhang Kewang nodded and said: "Yes, what we lack most now is time, as long as the next fleet brings enough equipment and soldiers, it will not be difficult to kill these barbarians." ”

Nakachito Ji Yifeng said: "Speaking of the fleet, I'm afraid that those barbarians will also have it?" Even if we didn't show up before, once the barbarians found out about us, I'm afraid they would block our sea retreat.

And the fleet of the marshal will return to Daming and then prepare supplies to return, I am afraid that it will take four or five months at the earliest, can we resist it?

Even if we keep attacking those barbarians or going into the mountains to engage in guerrilla warfare with them, will we still stay here when the fleet of the great commander returns? ”

Ji Yifeng's words made everyone's expressions a little gloomy.

If the city has already been built, and there are a large number of firearms in hand, it will not be a big problem to hold it for a few months.

Even if there is no city, and the barbarians do not have a large number of firearms in their hands, it is estimated that there is no problem if they want to defend it for a few months or even years.

No one thought that there would be so many barbarians here, and the barbarians also had a large number of firearms!

"Kill them!"

Slammed the table, Zhang Kewang said with a gloomy face: "The front, left, right, and middle four thousand households, take the initiative to attack, no matter what, we must buy time for the fleet to come back."

Regardless of whether you take the initiative to attack the barbarians' camp or lure the barbarians somewhere else, you can't let the barbarians find this place anyway.

Half a year, no matter what, we have to withstand half a year, and even if we can't beat these barbarians, we can calmly retreat and pull the East China Sea Fleet and the South China Sea Fleet to come again.

This commander is with the middle thousand households, and the camp here is handed over to the rear thousand households to take care of, if we all die in battle, someone must pass the news to the fleet, do you understand? ”

The eunuch of the prison army, who had not spoken, suddenly spoke: "Write a suicide note, our family will keep it with the Hou Qianhu Office, if you and the others are killed in battle, the suicide note will be and the matter of the pension silver, our family will do it for you." If our family is greedy for a penny, we will be eunuchs for the rest of our lives! ”

……

It took longer than Zhang Kewang and others expected, and seven months had passed since Zhang Xianzhong returned from Sakhalin - winter was almost over!

After carefully checking it, Zhang Xianzhong still felt a little confused.

The large area in front of me is not a camp, except for the vast white snow that has not yet melted, there is no trace of people, how can it be the place where it has landed before?

What about Zhang Kewang? Where the hell is that whole guardhouse?

The guards sent out to find Zhang Kewang and the others did not return until the evening, and there were no other clues except for a small Jingguan built with more than 100 barbarians to prove what had happened here.

Mao Wenlong, who was already dying, took the telescope and looked back and forth a few times before he spoke: "What about that child?" ”

Zhang Xianzhong was dumbfounded.

There is a view of Beijing, which means that there has been a battle here, but Zhang Kewang and others have no shadow, it can be said that there is no life and no death, which is unreasonable.

In desperation, Zhang Xianzhong had no choice but to speak: "At the beginning, it was true that the boat was parked here, and it was indeed the fate of Kewang and others to build a camp here. I don't see them now, I'm afraid something happened? ”

Mao Wenlong said: "This governor knows that you are worried, but the last time you came, you only brought a small fleet, and now that the North Sea Fleet is exhausted, is there anything else to worry about?" Now I can't find a few of them, just send someone to find them.

You have to remember that as a general, you must first stabilize yourself, and then the military spirit can be stabilized. Unstable military morale is the taboo of leading soldiers! ”

Geng Jingzhong and Shang Kexi were both a little envious of Zhang Xianzhong, and Mao Wenlong said this to Zhang Xianzhong now, obviously intending to recommend Zhang Xianzhong to take over the North Sea Fleet in the future.

Zhang Xianzhong was more worried about Zhang Kewang.

After thinking about it, Zhang Xianzhong said: "Marshal, why don't you lead the troops down to look for it?" Since there are no promising children nearby, then expand the scope of the search? ”

Mao Wenlong shook his head and said: "No need, there are already a full number of troops sent out just now, and they haven't found it, so it already means that they are not within this radius of a hundred miles."

Let's wait, wait for three days, and if we hope they are still alive, we will definitely come to us, and if something happens to them, the Governor will disembark with all the guards and rebuild the camp. ”

After sighing, Mao Wenlong continued: "As for you, take the entire fleet back to the sea, and then send a document to the Governor's Office of the Five Armies after loading supplies, asking the military government to send the East China Sea Fleet to support." ”

With a slight sigh, Mao Wenlong's hands holding the telescope trembled a little, and he suddenly said loudly: "Quick, send someone to the shore to answer!" ”

On the shore in the distance, several people were supporting each other, one foot deep and one foot shallow towards the direction of the fleet, although they couldn't see clearly because of the distance, but the tattered clothes on several people still showed the identity of several people - Ming sergeants!

There were six people who were taken to the ship, and five of them had knotted hair and beards, and it is not an exaggeration to describe them as skin and bones, and they looked extremely miserable.

The only one who didn't have a beard, after seeing Mao Wenlong and Zhang Xianzhong, he cried out: "Handsome! It's time for you! ”

After a few people cried for a while, Mao Wenlong said: "Take them down to wash first, and then prepare the wine and food." ”

The eunuch of the prison army pushed away the soldiers who came to help him, untied a small burden from his back, and said while untying the dead knot on the burden: "I'll talk about washing and eating later."

Here are the suicide notes of the 5,600 soldiers of the guard, as well as their identity certificates, the slaves and maids have kept them for the past few months, and they can finally put their minds at ease! ”

Zhang Xianzhong's heart was cold, and he stretched out his hand to the suicide note, but Mao Wenlong opened his hand.

Mao Wenlong said: "The matter of the suicide note, I'll talk about it later, go wash it first, then eat something, say it slowly, don't worry, now that the fleet is here, everything is fine." ”

The slow but firm evidence made the last remaining six people feel a little more at ease, and they stopped crying at the moment, but went to wash up with the soldiers.

After washing, he took care of it, and changed into clean clothes, and the eunuch of the prison army was not polite to Mao Wenlong and others, so he grabbed the steamed bun while sitting at the table, and after taking a bite of it, he squeaked: "Eat!" Eat them all! ”

It was as if it came out of a hungry ghost's nest, and several people didn't care about talking at all, just grabbed the wine and food on the table and stuffed it into their mouths.

It wasn't until he couldn't eat anymore that the eunuch of the prison army slowly exhaled and said, "What does the marshal want to ask?" We'll tell you everything we know. ”

Before Mao Wenlong could speak, Zhang Xianzhong hurriedly said: "What about the others? How did you guys get this way? Could it be that there are more and more powerful barbarians here? ”

The eunuch said, "Others? It's all here, where are the others? At the beginning, General Xiao Zhang took the front, left, right, and middle four thousand households out to take the initiative to intercept the barbarians, and never came back.

As for the remaining one of the Thousand Households, in order to cover the survival of us cowards, we led the barbarians to other places. A few of us hid in a cave not far away, watching them go away and never return.

The rest of us are waiting here, and when we are hungry, we will catch some wild things to eat, and even the rats will be eaten up by us, and when we drink them, we will go to find water to drink, and in winter we will eat snow, and finally we will wait for you. ”

Pointing to the small burden on the table next to him, the eunuch of the prison army continued: "Oh, that is the suicide note of all the soldiers, even our family." ”

Looking at the six people in front of him, Mao Wenlong's eyes couldn't help but be a little sour: "How many barbarians are here?" ”
