Chapter 13 The Changes in Zhoushan

Zhoushan Island, as a key coastal defense place in the Ming Dynasty, is also the location of the Dinghai Zhongwei.

Originally, there was also a garrison.

The person stationed on Zhoushan Island is none other than Huang Binqing.

is a native of Fujian, his father Huang Hao, died in the king's affairs, and he was born in grace. The Imperial Widow has meritorious. Now he has been appointed as a general in Zhoushan. On top of Zhoushan, the power is huge. Even if Wang Zhiren and Zhang Mingzhen go to Zhoushan, they must listen to Huang Binqing.

Even before Wang Zhiren, he was Huang Binqing's boss.

Now everyone can see that the Ming Dynasty is now in turmoil, Nanjing has fallen, Li Zicheng's troops are pointing directly at Shanxi, and the Shanxi soldiers have fled, and no one has resisted at all. I have to let people in the world have a different mind.

And Huang Binqing's mind is also the mind of many people.

Although Huang Binqing will not surrender to thieves, but in Zhoushan, an acre and three points of land, he cannot allow others to be presumptuous, if it were not for Wang Zhiren and Zhang Mingzhen to lead troops to vote. Huang Binqing may not want them to die of illness.

However, today came something that Huang Binqing was very dissatisfied with.

"Boom." Huang Binqing put the heavy tea bowl on the table, and said in a long tone in his tone: "You say, this is what Lord Lu meant?" ”

Zheng Cai smiled slightly and said: "Exactly, my eldest brother will be here in three or five days, and I will ask Lord Huang to make it convenient when the time comes." ”

Zheng Cai is Zheng Zhilong's nephew, and he has been following Zheng Zhilong in business, and he can be called a long-sleeved dancer.

Faced with Lu Zhenfei's temptation, Zheng Zhilong thought about it for a while, and finally made up his mind that he wanted this Zhoushan.

Since he wants Zhoushan, he will treat Zhoushan as his family's foundation to dispose of, and Huang Binqing will be extremely eye-catching. He sent Zheng Cai to Zhoushan, which was said to be a front station, but in fact, it may not mean to test Huang Binqing.

"Zhoushan is narrow and can't accommodate a large army, so please ask General Zheng to find another place." Huang Binqing said coldly.

Zheng Cai was shocked and said, "This is what the imperial court meant? ”

Huang Binqing said: "I will explain to Lord Lu." It's just that Zhoushan can't accommodate Zheng Zongbing. ”

Huang Binqing also regarded Zhoushan as his own industry, and now on Zhoushan, there are Wang Zhiren and Zhang Mingzhen, which has made Huang Binqing feel extremely annoyed, after all, there are a lot of people on both sides, Huang Binqing may not be able to suppress it, and then let Zheng Zhilong come, is this Zhoushan still the Zhoushan of the Huang family?

As for the imperial court.

At this point, the imperial court can't control Zhoushan, even if he Huang Binqing is a little more domineering, what can the imperial court do with him?

"Sending off guests." Huang Binqing said.

Zheng Cailai didn't have time to say anything, and he was kicked out.

After Zheng Cai left, his face did not change, he boarded the boat and entered the sea, and traveled not far south, and came to a small island, but saw a dense number of ships docked in the bay. As soon as Zheng Cai's ship docked, there were people

He greeted him and said, "Master Cai." ”

"Is Uncle there?" Zheng Cai said.

"I'm waiting for Caiye." The servant nodded and said.

Zheng Cai said, "Take me to meet the adults." ”

"Yes."

Zheng Zhilong was not on the island, but on the boat.

This island is not just a desert island in the Zhoushan archipelago, it is not a big island, but there is fresh water on the island, and it can be regarded as a hidden anchorage at sea. Ordinary people don't know, only old thieves know.

As for Zheng Zhilong, he is more accustomed to being on a boat than on an island, and there is nothing interesting on this desert island, so Zheng Zhilong naturally has to rest on the boat.

Zheng Cai saw Zheng Zhilong's ship at a glance.

Zheng Zhilong's ship is a Western plywood ship, about a foot higher than ordinary ships, and must be boarded with rope ladders, and on both sides of the ship, there are cannons, and there are 30 cannons on one side and 60 cannons on both sides.

This is the most powerful warship in Zheng Zhilong's hands, and it is also Zheng Zhilong's ship.

"Brother Cai." A twenty-year-old young man greeted Zheng Cai on the boat.

When Zheng Cai saw it, he said: "Fusong, you are here too, too, as the son of the Zheng family, it is time to see the world at this age." ”

This young man is none other than Zheng Chenggong.

However, he has not yet succeeded in this name. The big name is a mori character, and the other small name is Fumatsu.

At this moment, Zheng Chenggong had just gotten married not long ago, and according to Zheng Zhilong's intentions, he was asked to go to Nanjing Guozijian to study, and the famous teacher Qian Qianyi had already been arranged. It's just that when Zheng Sen was ready and was about to set off, he didn't want to have an unexpected problem.

That is the fall of Nanjing.

The fall of Nanjing disrupted all of Zheng Sen's plans, and Zheng Zhilong also saw that the world was in turmoil, so he did not urge Zheng Sen to have a scholar's reputation, but took it with him and taught him by word and deed. Learn the art of warfare at sea.

In the Ming Dynasty, he was a simple military general, and he was not welcomed. Therefore, it is natural for emerging generals like Zheng Zhilong to move closer to scholars, but Jiangnan fell, and countless famous scholars and doctors died, along with Liu Zongzhou, Huang Daozhou, Chen Zilong, Xia Yunyi, and other great Confucian talents.

made Zheng Zhilong suddenly understand that it was already a troubled time.

Naturally, the direction of Zheng Sen's cultivation has changed.

Zheng Sen smiled at Zheng Cai and said, "Brother Cai, please." Father has been waiting for you for a long time. ”

Zheng Sen and Zheng Cai are actually not close, the age difference between Zheng Cai and Zheng Sen is relatively large, and Zheng Sen grew up in Japan when he was a child, and Zheng Cai takes care of the family business outside all the year round, and the relationship between the two is just a general.

Zheng Sen introduced Zheng Cai into the cabin, Zheng Cai only felt a slight press in front of him, and when he looked again, he saw Zheng Zhilong sitting on the main seat, Zheng Hongkui sitting on the side, and some Zheng Jiayi

The general of the department sat on the side, and Zheng Cai said: "Meet the uncle, meet the fourth uncle, I have already met Huang Binqing." ”

"What is Huang Binqing's attitude?" Zheng Zhilong said.

"He naturally doesn't want his uncle to go to Zhoushan." Zheng Cai said.

"Huh." Zheng Zhilong said: "It's really a few years, if you don't do it, everyone in the world thinks that Zheng Feihuang will only make money in harmony?" ”

"Big brother, after all, we are officials of the imperial court, or I will go to the island once and talk to this yellow ginseng general." Zheng Hongkui said.

Zheng Zhilong glanced at Zheng Hongkui, and Zheng Hongkui suddenly didn't dare to say anything else.

No matter how big an official Zheng Hongkui is, in front of his eldest brother, he is already the same child many years ago.

Zheng Zhilong said: "Ah Cai, how is the situation on the island? ”

Zheng Cai said: "The troops on the island are divided into three parts, namely Huang Binqing's department, Zhang Mingzhen's department, and Wang Zhiren's department, Huang Binqing and Zhang Mingzhen are in-laws, and the people on the island support Huang Binqing, so Huang Binqing can suppress Wang Zhiren." I just think that if the fight really starts, I know who the deer will die. ”

Zheng Zhilong nodded and said: "In other words, Zhang Mingzhen is also our enemy? ”

"Nope." Zheng Cai said: "Although Zhang Mingzhen and Huang Binqing are sons and daughters, Zhang Mingzhen does not have such ambition as Huang Binqing, as long as we have the righteousness of the court, Zhang Mingzhen may not resist." ”

"In that case." Zheng Zhilong said: "What are we waiting for, send troops." ”

Zheng Zhilong gave an order, and all the generals suddenly agreed: "Yes." ”

"Fauson." Zheng Zhilong said.

"The child is here." Zheng Sen said.

Among the many elders, Zheng Sen did not have a seat, but stood behind Zheng Zhilong.

"This time, you lead ten clippers and go to Zhoushan first." Zheng Zhilong said.

"Yes." Zheng Sen took a deep breath and said.

This is Zheng Sen's first battle, Zheng Sen has never been in contact with war before, Zheng Zhilong has always let him study, wanting to test a meritorious name, and change the Zheng family from a military general family to a scholarly family.

At this moment, Zheng Sen inevitably felt a trace of nervousness in his heart.

"Honorable." Zheng Zhilong said.

"The subordinates are here." Shi Lang said. Respect is Shi Lang's word.

Zheng Zhilong said: "You are with Fusong. Although Zheng Zhilong didn't say it explicitly, the implication was naturally to ask Shi Lang, the old man, to take good care of Zheng Sen.

Shi Lang joined the army at the age of seventeen, and now it has been seven or eight years, and he is Zheng Zhilong's more effective general. It is also a trusted general after all.

"The subordinates understand that they will definitely not let the little boy be hurt at all." Shi Lang said.

Zheng Sen frowned slightly when he heard this, and he was a little unhappy in his heart. felt that Shi Lang really underestimated himself, but he couldn't say anything, but his impression of Shi Lang was one point worse.
