Zheng Yiguan stood at the bow of the boat and waited for Mao Chenglu's arrival with a smile, and his younger brother Zheng Zhibao kept complaining: "Big brother! There are too many rules in Changxingjun, but it's good to come out with my eldest brother this time, otherwise I would have to be tired to death! Zhihu is in trouble! ”

They all train with ordinary soldiers every day in the boot camp, which is a rule that cannot be shaken. Anyone who wants to join the Changxing Army is no exception, and Zheng Yiguan didn't ask Zhang Dou to talk about it, and rushed into the new barracks with his two younger brothers.

Zheng Yiguan put his face on the plate and said: "Zhi Leopard! No one in the boot camp is immune, and I will go back to make up for the missing time when this mission is completed! Zheng Zhibao, who was still gloating, suddenly subsided with excitement on his face.

As soon as he wanted to speak, he saw Mao Chenglu walk onto the big plywood boat.

Zheng Yiguan walked up with a smile on his face, arched his hand and said: "Zheng Zhilong has seen General Mao, it is not a loss to be a fierce general of Dongjiang Town, it is really a blessing to see him today!" ”

After Mao Wenlong stepped on the large splint ship, he realized the huge size of this battleship. Just the dense gun windows on the side side are dazzling, and many of the armor soldiers and sailors on the ship are still Japanese, and Mao Chenglu secretly said that he was surprised.

"Shopkeeper Zheng looks like a person who does big business, and I'm afraid these sea ships alone will be rich enough to rival the country!" Mao Chenglu quietly clichéd.

The general laughed, Zheng has always been a small business, and it is inevitable to encounter cockroaches and thieves when walking on the sea. Mere sea vessels are just for self-defense, not really! Zheng Yiguan's words were half-true and half-false, and Mao Chenglu couldn't find fault with it.

"I don't know where the shopkeeper Zheng made his fortune? There is a way to bring Mao with you! Mao Chenglu asked unrelentingly.

Zheng Yiguan still had a smile on his face, and said calmly: "It's ashamed to say it, I have been wandering all over the world and have no fixed place. Recently, I took a look at an island and occupied it, and I plan to live a stable life, otherwise I won't trouble General Mao! ”

Mao Chenglu came to the spirit and finally asked for some useful information. couldn't help but ask: "I don't know which island Shopkeeper Zheng is looking at, Mao will definitely visit in the future!" ”

Zheng Yiguan said: "Then how embarrassing! Jeju Island is too small, how can it accommodate your big Buddha. ”

The muscles on Mao Chenglu's face jumped a few times, and he was stunned for a while before regaining his composure. But there was a storm in his heart, and it had been some time since Jeju Island had been captured by a gang of pirates. The news has spread all over the north, even Mao Wenlong of Phi Dao.

I heard that this group of pirates had several large plywood ships of Xiyi, and they defeated hundreds of Korean naval warships with their strong guns. In the end, North Korea had no choice but to admit the fact that Jeju Island was forcibly occupied.

Now that the pirate leader was right in front of his eyes, how could he not be shocked. The original plan to buy and sell forcibly on Phi Dao was thrown out of the clouds, so with the strength of other people's seas, it depends on whether other people's cannons agree or not, and he must be careful when he goes back, so as not to provoke this group of pirates who kill people without blinking.

After some conversation, Zheng Yiguan took Mao Chenglu to Phi Island the next day. Along the way, Mao Chenglu finally saw the superior seaworthiness of this Xiyi sea ship, and there was no slightest bump in the small wind and waves.

Even if you encounter wind and waves, you still sail against the wind and waves, and there is no intention of slowing down and detouring. In particular, when bypassing Jinzhou, they encountered two Jurchen warships, and one of the two ships was sunk without any chance of escaping, and the remaining one obediently raised the white flag and surrendered.

With such a huge hull still able to gallop across the sea, it's no wonder that this gang of pirates can run rampant in the sea. Mao Chenglu kept Zheng Yiguan and Jeju Island in mind, and when he arrived at Phi Island, he scared the sailors of Phi Island.

Zheng Yiguan's five big ships were in front, and hundreds of sea ships in the rear were behind. With such a large fleet, it was more than enough to destroy the Phi Dao sailors.

When Mao Chenglu reported the results of the meeting with Changsheng Island to his father-in-law Mao Wenlong, Mao Wenlong's face finally showed a smile. With the cannon, there is no need to be afraid of the Jurchen armor soldiers, and when the time comes, you will fight a few beautiful battles, and you will be promoted to the rank of knight in the future.

Li Laogen's land was robbed by Jiannu, and when Jiannu entered Tunzi, he fled into the mountains with his daughter.

It turned out that Li Laogen was right to escape, and those villagers who did not flee and waited to be obedient were beaten into slaves, and women were raped in front of their own men. The child was thrown to death in the ground, and the crying in the village frightened Li Laogen's father and daughter who were hiding in the mountains.

Their father and daughter fled all the way and suffered a lot before they came to Dongjiang Town. When he got here, Li Laogen was dumbfounded, and the whole island was full of Liao people who had fled here.

With so many people, the officers and soldiers can't take care of them at all, and everyone only has a bowl of crystal clear gruel every day to hang a life.

When their parents first arrived, there were many people who had the idea of beating their daughter Li Yulan. If it weren't for Li Laogen's desperate protection, he wouldn't have been able to hold on to it now.

Looking at his daughter, who was just fifteen years old, Li Laogen's tears almost fell. I promised my dead wife that I would take good care of Magnolia. But now Yulan is so hungry that his heart is as uncomfortable as a pinprick.

"Magnolia! I'll go to the docks tomorrow to find a job, and I'll have to get you a fish to make up for it!" Li Laogen said.

Although Magnolia rarely leaves the shack to go out, she knows the danger outside. The landlord and aunt have said that there are already cannibals on the island. People are now crazy with hunger, and they will snatch everything they can eat.

Her father's fishing for herself may have been the source of the disaster, and she said with a strong spirit: "Daddy doesn't have to go to the docks to take risks, and my daughter is not hungry!" ”

"What do you say? See how hungry you are? How can you get it if you don't make up for it! Needless to say, don't go out at home tomorrow, wait for Daddy to come back and stew fish soup to drink! Li Laogen said.

While their parents were talking, a woman ran in. In a hurry to enter the door, one fell unsteadily to the ground.

Ignoring the blood flowing from her head, she said, "Magnolia! Great benevolent people have come to the docks, and they are recruiting people to open up the wasteland. Those who go to sign up will have a piece of cake and a bowl of porridge! ”

Hearing her words, the father and daughter were in good spirits, and this was the best news they had heard in recent years. It's a good thing to recruit people to open up the wasteland, no matter where he goes, as long as he can stay alive, it's better than anything.

Li Laogen was about to go out excitedly, but stopped again. The wasteland must be an adult strong man, what should I do if I leave Magnolia?

He stopped and said, "Sister-in-law Zhang! Or you go! I'm gone, who will take care of Magnolia! ”

Sister-in-law Zhang wiped the blood on her forehead with her hand and said, "Li Laogen, I've heard it all!" As long as there is nothing wrong with the body, men, women and children want it! The more family the better, and it is said that such a person can open up the wasteland with peace of mind! ”

After speaking, her face turned red, and she said again: "Brother Li! My man died early. ”
