Chapter 103: Duckbill Island

Zhang Dou also did not show weakness, he glared at Yuan Chonghuan and said: "Ben will capture the deserters who are afraid of the enemy and avoid the battle, otherwise the more than 200 brothers who died in the Dragon King Temple will not forgive Ben General!" ”

Hearing Zhang Dou's words, Yuan Chonghuan's face softened a little, he also led soldiers under Sun Chengzong, and he also hated deserters who were afraid of the enemy and avoided battle.

But at this time, he must not retreat, otherwise his prestige will be swept away, and no one will be able to listen to him on Immortal Island in the future. So Yuan Chonghuan stubbornly said: "There is no deserter you are looking for here, and General Zhang had better leave earlier!" ”

"Lin Haichuan, a deserter, is determined to win, and anyone who dares to stop is the enemy of the Changxing Army!" Zhang Dou's words landed soundly, and the Changxing Army behind him also took a neat step forward, shouting "Kill!" ”

When Yuan Chonghuan saw Zhang Dou, who was not giving an inch, he also turned his heart sideways, stood in front of Zhang Dou and shouted: "Zhang Dou! If you want to enter and arrest someone, unless you step on Yuan's corpse, then hurry up and leave for this official! ”

For a while, the two sides did not give in, and they raised the cow at the door of the inn. The air was filled with the smell of gunpowder, and the slightest spark would explode and burn everyone present.

Suddenly, a shrill voice sounded outside: "The Holy Decree has arrived!" Changsheng Island County ordered Yuan Chonghuan, and Changsheng Island General Zhang Dou received the order~~!! ”

Hearing that the holy decree had arrived, everyone present was stunned. The imperial power has been deeply ingrained in the hearts of the Ming people, and they all knelt down unconsciously.

In front of the inn, they immediately knelt down, and when they knelt down, they revealed Zhang Dou and Yuan Chonghuan, who were holding the bull inside.

A group of people walked in from the crowd, led by a person dressed as a eunuch. He held the dust in his hand and said as he walked: "Yuan Chonghuan and Zhang Dou have not accepted the order, when will they wait?" The shrill voice alerted the two of the top oxen, and they quickly knelt down to receive the order.

The eunuch took out a long edict and read it out in public. It means that Zhang Dou was rewarded with 10,000 taels of silver to commend Zhang Dou's achievements in achieving the great victory on Changsheng Island and capturing Abatai alive.

In addition, Abatai was accidentally robbed, which made the court very angry. Especially the little emperor Zhu Youxiao, he was ready for the ceremony to sacrifice the prisoners in the Taimiao, but he was told that Abatai had been kidnapped.

This news made Zhu Youxiao furious, and he ordered Jinyiwei and Dongchang to be sure to get Abatai back, otherwise they would take their heads to the tank.

The Donglin Party also took the opportunity to give Zhang Dou a dark spot. They went up one after another, saying that Zhang Dou had not captured Abatai at all, so after sending Abatai away, he sent people to kill all the people on the ship and destroy their bodies.

In this way, Zhu Youxiao kept the excerpts and did not send them, but Zhu Youxiao still trusted Zhang Dou very much. Not for anything else, just because Zhang Dou slaughtered the son and grandson of the old slave.

He must not surrender to Jiannu, although Wei Zhongxian is greedy for money. But he knew that he was a slave of the old Zhu family of the Ming Dynasty, and the better the old Zhu family, the more nourishing his life would be.

If the Ming Dynasty was finished, he would be the first to be unlucky, so he handed over all the silver he had fished from the gentry and wealthy households to the little emperor Zhu Youxiao. At least in the Tianqi Dynasty when Wei Zhongxian was in power, the border army had food and salary, and the victims had silver relief.

So he didn't believe in the nonsense of the Donglin Party, and he also trusted Zhang Dou very much. That's why there was this holy decree, so that Zhang Dou and Yuan Chonghuan worked together to find out the person who rescued Abatai, and to bring Abatai back to Beijing.

After listening to Zhang Dou and Yuan Chonghuan, they kowtowed together to thank them, and then the two of them ignored the other and turned to leave.

A businessman stood in front of Zhang Dou's bookcase and said, "My lord! The little Wang Gang was about to go to Tianjin Wei to continue transporting grain to Changsheng Island after unloading the grain, but when he was still half a day away from Tianjin, he encountered an official ship floating on the sea.

Out of curiosity, the little one leaned in, and found a boatload of dead people. The little one knew in the official document on the ship that this was the official ship escorting Abatai, and the little one didn't dare to delay and took the official ship back to Changsheng Island to ask the lord to send it down! ”

Zhang Dou said: "Very good! Wang Gang, you're doing a good job. This official has a money-making business here, and when he has an eyebrow, he will be the first to hand it over to you to operate. ”

"Thank you, Lord for the reward!" Wang Gang went out with a thousand thanks.

Zhang Dou thought about it carefully and found out the viciousness of the thief, it was no secret that he had a conflict with Jinyiwei on Changsheng Island. And the official ship was killed near Tianjin and floated on the sea.

Fortunately, it was Wang Gang who met the official ship, otherwise he would have been found by other maritime merchants and pulled to Tianjin, and he would not be able to say clearly even if he was covered with his mouth by Jinyiwei's means.

When the time comes, the basin will be buckled to his head, and he will have to turn his face with the court. In that way, Changsheng Island will become a dead place hanging overseas, and without the support of the imperial court, Zhang Dou will have to be defeated no matter how great his ability is.

Since Zhang Dou can't leave the imperial court, he has to find a way to find out Abatai's whereabouts. But where did Abatai go? Who wouldn't be afraid of death to rob Abatai!

Wait a minute! The three words not afraid of death crossed Zhang Dou's mind, and he immediately grasped the crux of the problem, but he couldn't think of anything for a while.

Zhang Dou walked back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back, trying to catch the flash of inspiration. He muttered quietly as he walked: "I'm not afraid of death~ I'm not afraid of death......"

Suddenly, Zhang Dou jumped up and ran to the yard and shouted loudly: "I know! I know!! ”

On the wharf of the Dragon King Temple, more than 1,000 Changxing troops are ready to go. The wharf was full of all kinds of sea ships, they were all waiting for the Changxing army to board the ship in an orderly manner, and the entire wharf could no longer hear a sound except for the occasional collision of weapons.

From a distance, a man ran panting, wearing an official robe, a pair of official boots under his feet, and his face was full of exhaustion.

As soon as he came to the dock, he didn't care about wiping the sweat on his face and shouted, "Where is Zhang Dou?" The officer wants to see him! ”

"The general is very busy, so I don't have time to see you!" That Changxingjun didn't have a good impression of this official at all, and said impatiently.

The man pushed the soldier away, strode to the boat, and walked to the boat with his eyes closed.

The soldier did not dare to be rude to the official, he walked up to the man and said, "My lord! Don't embarrass the villain, in case the general blames the villain, but the villain can't afford to be guilty! ”

"No matter what your business, as long as you find Zhang Dou, Yuan Chonghuan will definitely not embarrass you." Yuan Chonghuan said.

Not long after, Zhang Dou came to this boat and said, "Lord Yuan is not going to investigate the case, what are you doing here to Zhang Dou?" ”

"Zhang Dou, you don't pretend to be confused here, did you find something?" Yuan Chonghuan said angrily.

"That's right! The person who robbed Abatai, Zhang Dou already has some eyebrows. Zhang Dou said.

"You have to take me there, or Lao Tzu won't leave!" Yuan Chonghuan actually played a scoundrel.

Seeing this, Zhang Dou smiled and said, "It's okay to take Lord Yuan there, but Lord Yuan also has something to say!" ”

"Okay! How much silver do you want, just ask," Yuan Chonghuan said proudly.

"Lord Yuan! How hurtful are the sayings like mentioning silver? Hearing Zhang Dou's words, Yuan Chonghuan rolled his eyes.

"As long as Lord Yuan no longer shelters Lin Haichuan, then everything is easy to say!" Hearing Zhang Dou's words, Yuan Chonghuan's face changed.

Lin Haichuan is the first person on Changsheng Island to take refuge in himself, if he is betrayed, then who will do things for himself in the future?

"No! You change the conditions! Yuan Chonghuan thought for a while and refused.

Zhang Dou sneered and said, "Since Lord Yuan doesn't agree, then please get off the boat!" After saying that, he made a gesture of please, and there was no room for bargaining at all.

Just when Yuan Chonghuan was about to get angry, Zhang Dou said to Hu Tieniu beside him: "Please get off the boat!" ”

Hu Tieniu agreed, and walked towards Yuan Chonghuan with a cruel smile.

Yuan Chonghuan panicked now, he was not afraid of Zhang Dou, but he was afraid of people like Hu Tieniu. This kind of person doesn't listen to your explanation at all, people don't understand what you say at all, and no matter how much knowledge you have, it doesn't matter.

Just when Hu Tieniu's hand was about to grab Yuan Chonghuan's chest, Yuan Chonghuan finally shouted: "You won!" Go catch Lin Haichuan now! ”

Zhang Dou's fleet bypassed Jinzhou and sailed straight in the direction of North Korea. Along the way, no matter how Yuan Chonghuan asked, Zhang Dou didn't open his mouth, and Yuan Chonghuan was in a hurry.

Finally, after two days of driving, someone came to report, "General! Half a day to Duckbill Island! ”
