The sunset on the sea is usually a little later than on land, but when there is a sunrise, there is a sunset, and although the day at sea is long, the night is still destined to come. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

As night fell, the lights were bright in the walled city near the anchorage of the Dongjiang fleet, but by this time the city had changed owners.

The 270 people who originally surrendered in the walled city, whether they were pirates entrenched here or maritime merchants passing through here, were all under the supervision of Mao Youde at this time, repairing the walls of the walled city that were destroyed by Mao Youde with a Francophone cannon in the afternoon.

Except, of course, for Lin Chuanfu, the boss of this gang of pirates. Because Lin Chuanfu was kneeling in front of Mao Weizhang at this time.

Of course, Mao Weizhang knew that these pirates were not good, and he also knew that the so-called maritime merchants who passed through here were just other pirate gangs who came here to help sell the stolen goods, or they were just the sellers of the pirates.

At this time, pirates who can use them directly after robbing things are of course the best, and if they can't use them directly, they need to find someone to sell the stolen goods for them.

Later generations had a more figurative name for such people, called "white gloves", but in fact they were just agents, after all, pirates themselves would not take the risk of showing up and going to those big towns where commerce and commerce were prosperous to run shops.

Although Mao Weizhang was a scholar, since the Jiajing Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty had been in turmoil along the coast for nearly a hundred years, and these scholars, who took saving the world as their own responsibility, still knew a little about the symbiotic relationship between the Japanese and the maritime merchants.

So he also hesitated about what to do with Lin Chuanfu's gang. Mao Youde meant, of course, is to kill them all, after all, now that he is in the enemy territory, it is a burden to take these people with him, and Chen Jisheng is noncommittal.

Looking at Lin Chuanfu kneeling in front of him, Mao Weizhang thought for a while and said, "You are what they call Brother Afu?" ”

Lin Chuanfu, who was kneeling on the ground and couldn't bow down, heard this, and immediately kowtowed again and said: "The little name is Ah Fu, the big name is Lin Chuanfu, I really don't dare to be called the big man!" ”

Mao Weizhang nodded and said, "Do you know your current situation?" ”

Lin Chuanfu kowtowed and said: "The little one knows, the little one knows, the little one's life is just a thought of the big man." If the lord lets me live, I can live, let me die, and I have to die. ”

When Mao Weizhang heard this, he also smiled and said, "Yes, you, the leading brother, are very knowledgeable about current affairs. Your life and death are also of any use to you in your own thoughts. If you are useful to the official, you will not die, and if you are useless, it is a waste of food for the official to keep you. ”

Speaking of this, Mao Wei paused and then said, "This official asks you, what is the name of this village and harbor you occupy?" How many people are there on the island today? Can there be a government garrison of the Korean state, but can there be a town like a little bit? ”

Mao Wei asked all his questions in one breath, and Lin Chuanfu also knew that if he couldn't answer or concealed something, his life would be suspended.

I only heard Lin Chuanfu say: "I don't know what the name of this village was, but this harbor, people like us who pass through here call it Tamna Port." ”

After saying this, seeing Mao Wei listening to him expressionlessly, he quickly lowered his head and said: "I once heard people say that this Jeju Island is the largest island in this black water ocean, how can there be five or six thousand people on the island, and if you talk about the population, how can the small estimate be thirty or fifty thousand."

"More than 20 miles south of this Tamna Port, there is the county town of Jeju on Jeju Island, with a radius of eight or nine miles and a population of 10,000 or 20,000.

"The little one used to go to this Jeju City, but if it wasn't for the fact that Commander Li didn't let him do it, with the two thousand defenders in this city, the little one would have joined forces with the brothers to break it."

After saying this, Lin Chuanfu wanted to say more, but when he saw Mao Wei raise his hand, he immediately shut up.

At this time, Mao Weizhang stared at Lin Chuanfu and said, "Is there a port elsewhere on this island, but there are still pirates?" ”

Lin Chuanfu hesitated for a moment, but quickly made up his mind, kowtowed and said: "Report to the lord, this place goes south, over the Chaotian Mountain in the island, and there is a port on the other side of Jeju Island, called Seogwipo, which is much smaller than this harbor.

"Right now, this Seogwipo is in the hands of the Chen Shrimp Brothers. This Chen shrimp boy used to be a subordinate of Commander Li, Commander Li returned to heaven, and he followed Commander Yan to eat, and now Commander Yan is said to have returned to heaven, and the little one heard that he voted for Commander Li's son again. Now sitting on the ground in Seogwipo to collect money, life is prosperous. ”

Hearing this, Mao Youde saw that Mao Weizhang's face was not worried, and immediately scolded Lin Chuanfu: "Don't fucking be long-winded!" Honestly, how many people are there in this Chen Shrimp Boy? How many ships are there? ”

Lin Chuanfu didn't dare to be verbose anymore, and immediately said: "I heard that Chen Xiazi has thousands of brothers and hundreds of sea boats!" ”

Mao Weizhang heard this, and said to Lin Chuanfu: "This official is quite satisfied with what you said. What else do you know? ”

Lin Chuanfu finally breathed a sigh of relief in his heart when he heard this, it seemed that his life had been saved.

He thought for a while, and then said: "The little ones heard that the Jeju Island of the North Koreans was originally the territory of our Ming Dynasty, and the highest mountain on the island had two big characters engraved on the stone, 'Chaotian'.

"It is said that there are some large and small villages in front of and behind this mountain, but the big ones are only a thousand people, and the small ones may be a hundred or ten people. If I, the Ming Dynasty official army and sailor, want to occupy this island, the little ones are willing to serve the big lord and the generals! ”

Mao Weizhang heard this, smiled and said, "What you said is good. This place is indeed the place named by my Chinese ancestors. ”

Speaking of this, Mao Wei Zhang thought thoughtfully, and after a while, he continued: "Pass the order!" From now on, there will be no more Tamna Island and Jeju Island, and this island will restore its old Chinese name and will be called Yingju Island from now on. The big mountain on the island is called Chaotian Mountain. This Tamna Port will be called Yingzhou Ao from now on. Because Haike talks about Yingzhou, that's what he is talking about! ”

After hearing this, Chen Jisheng, Mao Youde, and Bi Denghan, who were accompanying him, inexplicably felt a sense of pride, and bowed down and clenched his fists together and said: "Obey the general's orders!" ”

The old man who couldn't read a few big characters also said: "This Yingzhou is called well!" Let's lead the troops to fight, isn't it just a win! Now that this island has been renamed Yingzhou, we will naturally win! ”

As soon as these words came out, Mao Weizhang, Chen Jisheng, and Bi Denghan all laughed when they heard it. That's it.

Mao Weizhang asked Lin Chuanfu to be taken down, leaving Chen Jisheng, Mao Youde, and Bi Denghan to continue the discussion.

Mao Weizhang said: "Now that this official has taken you to Yingzhou Island, he naturally wants to occupy this territory. On the top, we have opened up territory for the Holy Son of Heaven, and on the other hand, we have also found a fertile soil for the Han people in Liaodong to live and work in peace and contentment. It's just that you have all heard that there are still two forces on this island, and if we don't get rid of them, our generation will always not be able to gain a stable foothold here. As the saying goes, the color of the couch does not allow others to snore. Do you have any thoughts on this? ”

Mao Weizhang's words inexplicably hit Mao Youde's mind, and he was facing his spleen and stomach, only to hear Mao Youde say: "What the adults said is very true!" When our men from Dongjiang Town arrive here, they naturally can't tolerate others to worry about this place anymore!

"Besides, how many years have our Dongjiang Town fought in North Korea, we know the strength of these North Koreans very well, and it is no problem to beat ten of them at a time! As long as the adults give an order, no matter how many Koreans there are on this Yingzhou Island, in my opinion, all of them will be killed! ”

After Mao Youde finished speaking, Chen Jisheng said: "Kill them all, it's not that you can't do it, it's just that we are here, not an expedient measure, but to keep this place forever, to keep this place forever, we must choose a dangerous place, build a city and build a fort." If we kill all the people of the island, who will build us a city, and who will build us houses? In my opinion, it's not too late to lay down Jeju County first. ”

As soon as Chen Jisheng's words fell, Bi Denghan said: "Report to your lordship, listen to what Lin Chuanfu said, the capital of Jeju County is only twenty miles away, and the defenders are only 2,000. Today, our army has suddenly arrived here, and the people of the court will be unprepared, if the lord can trust the lowly duty, the lowly duty is willing to lead a battalion of men and horses, go south overnight, and take this city! Thank your permission! ”

As he spoke, he knelt on the ground and clenched his fists to obey the order. Chen Jisheng and Mao Youde were shocked when they heard this: "Yes, why didn't I think of this?!" ”

The two hurriedly knelt down and asked for an order, asking to go south overnight to capture Jeju County.

When Mao Weizhang heard this, he said colorfully: "What nonsense! The army has worked hard from afar, and today it has just arrived here and needs to recuperate. At the same time, the enemy situation in the county town of the DPRK is unknown, how can he act rashly? Hurry up, please don't allow! ”

When the three of them heard this, they all stood up, and Chen Jisheng said: "I think that what Bi Dusi said is not unreasonable. The use of soldiers is expensive in the speed of God. From the humble point of view, if this is not the case, tonight take advantage of the night, send a sentry to investigate the situation of the county, and the rest of the men and horses stay here to rest, and tomorrow morning, most of them will go south to capture the city. Thank you for your permission. ”

After Chen Jisheng finished speaking, Mao Youde and Bi Denghan both nodded in agreement.

At this time, Mao Weizhang also nodded and said, "What Vice General Chen said is exactly what this official meant. In this case, tonight I will work hard under the command of the guerrillas, personally lead the capable manpower, and set off for the third watch to go to the sentinel.

"Vice General Chen and Bi Dusi will stay in the camp, cook food at five watches tomorrow morning, set off at midnight, and the army will go south to seize this county town."
