Huang Mingdao, who had been sailing in the South China Sea for more than three months, returned safely with his fleet, and since this time the route was all along the coastal waters, he did not encounter any decent pirates at all, and there were not many fighting opportunities.

More than a dozen merchant ships were looted along the way, and there was no resistance at all, and there were no casualties among the Huang soldiers.

Most of these were sea coachmen, and the Dutch built merchant ships that sailed without force and sailed entirely on speed superiority.

Previously, typical European merchant ships were built with platforms that could be used to mount artillery, which effectively prevented pirate attacks. The Dutch were the first to venture out to build a merchant ship that could only transport goods and not be equipped with artillery.

The trade-off for this was that every voyage became a risky gamble of fate, but it had the advantage of low shipbuilding costs, half the price of British ships, and thus, low freight rates for goods.

Even so, the Dutch were not satisfied, and in order to make as much profit as possible, they added a special design to the ships.

Its design is unique, the belly of the cargo ship is large, so the hull is large and round. And the deck is small. This is done because, in Scandinavia, the tax paid by the ship depends on the width of the deck, and the narrower the deck, the less money is paid, so the Dutch man-made ship has a small deck and a large belly, and the more profitable it is.

To a large extent, it was on this boat that the Dutch earned the world-famous title of "Coachman of the Sea".

It's a pity that the speed of these deformed Galen ships can be caught up with the Huang family's main warship, and the Sentinel Horse ship can easily outflank it, although the Sentinel Horse ship has a four-pounder bow cannon, and every time it is bombarded with the mast of the Galen ship, it will cause several soft sails to fall.

The final result was that the Galen ship was getting slower and slower, and the adventurers who ran the single gang wisely chose to surrender, so the Huang family captured a few hundred more Westerners.

Huang Mingdao sold porcelain, Songjiang cloth and other commodities in Fei Fu Port, and shipped back 150,000 stone of rice hastily purchased by Hu Mingshan, the minister of Guangnan State, and paid for the goods in full.

Because the arrival of the Daming fleet at Feifu Port was a few months earlier than the agreed time, Hu Mingshan had no material preparations, and he stated that there must be at least 500,000 stone of rice supplied on the day of the agreement.

Daishan and Lingao have received a large number of equipment and technical personnel to join, and the development momentum will be immediate, and the remaining chief officials have written a work report to the head of the family, asking Huang Mingdao to bring back the head of the Chen family.

After returning to Huangjiawan Island for only seventeen days, Huang Sheng told Chu'er that he would take his subordinates to fight Jiannu.

Isn't the husband at home worried about the system? The court didn't allow him to take away his affection, how could he lead troops?

Chu Er was puzzled and asked, "Husband, you are worried now, although your grade is still there, you can't command the soldiers and horses of the imperial court, how can you take the initiative to attack Jiannu?" ”

"Lady, Ding Wei is just to show filial piety, the husband's parents and the tragic death of the family are all due to Jiannu. Killing those brutes is the best embodiment of filial piety. I didn't bring the imperial court soldiers and horses this time, and all the soldiers who attacked were from the Huang family. ”

"Husband, how many families do we have?"

"There are more than 1,000 ships in our family, and there are more sailors and gunners, plus their calculations, there must be 20,000 or 30,000 horses, so I asked you to find ways to earn more money!"

Chu Er knew that the Huang family had a lot of private soldiers, but she didn't expect that there would be so many at all, and she was a little dizzy. Husband has such strength, what are he going to do? Little Lori was a little nervous, and her little face turned white with fright.

She stammered: "Husband, do you have too many soldiers and horses, what should you do if the court is jealous?" ”

"That's why you can't talk to outsiders! Even your father can't tell you, don't worry, your husband won't cause trouble for the family. ”

Chu Er was born in a noble family, but it is not easy to deceive, she said suspiciously: "Husband, Si people are not guilty of their crimes, you have to be careful!" ”

"If there is really a day when the saint is jealous of the husband, where will you go from here?"

Chu Er didn't even think about it, and immediately said firmly: "The husband is the heaven of the concubine, no matter when and where the concubine is the concubine, she will consider the husband and the queen, and she is not afraid of losing the world." ”

Huang Sheng was greatly relieved, hugged his beloved wife and said: "Don't worry, the saint will live up to me, I will definitely build a slave for him." But if he deviates from morality, even if I bow my head to my ears, the arrogant soldiers under my command will not agree! ”

It was obvious that her husband had a heart of disobedience, and Chu'er began to tremble in Huang Sheng's arms. After a while, he said: "Husband, you and I are husband and wife, no matter what you do, you will listen to you." ”

This is the characteristic of the feudal dynasty, in fact, it is also more in line with human nature, the crime of rebellion should be punished by the nine clans, and the wife bears the brunt, but it is not a report that can be kept out of the matter.

In the feudal dynasty, there was no such thing as a time of moral decay, where wives exposed their husbands and sons and denounced their mothers' rebellion. If another person does this, there is a chance that he will not die well.

Chu Er is already the eldest lady of the Huang family, so she naturally shares the glory and disgrace with Huang Sheng, although she is apprehensive in her heart, she is still extremely happy to know that the Huang family soldiers are strong and strong.

"Chu'er, the Huang family mainly relies on the profits of sea trade to raise troops, support the people, and seek development, most of them are sailors and gunners who run the sea, and there are actually not many family troops who can land and fight, a total of more than 200 hundred, three or four thousand people."

"Husband, don't comfort the concubine, the concubine knows the proportions, you have to be careful!"

"Of course I will be cautious, all the soldiers of Jiannu are no less than 100,000, how can the Huang family fight with them with only a few thousand people, this time I will find them to deploy weak points and sneak attack to go to the sea and run away."

Chu Er specially found Hexiang Qian, who was preparing to follow her husband on the expedition, and asked carefully about the real casualties of the Huang family and horses in the last Ningjin victory, and finally felt a little more relieved.

On 21 April, at the mouth of the lower reaches of the Yalu River, in the meeting compartment of the temporary flagship "Quang Ninh," the officers of the Huang family gathered together, and there were already many real generals here.

Huang Mingli and Huang Mingdao were actually taught by the guerrilla generals of the three grades, and Huang Dongshan, Heihu, Li Gang, Cheng Quangong, Gu Shanhe, and the Han brothers were all subordinate to the command of the Sanpinwei and were actually awarded to the commander of the thousand generals or garrison military attachés.

There are more than 20 officers from the fourth rank to the fifth grade, and there is also a personal captain Liu Guozheng, the nominal guerrilla general in Dongjiang Town. This is just the beginning, and in the future, the Huang family system will emerge in an endless stream.

Huang Dongshan already had the level of a general staff officer, and he carefully analyzed the situation between the enemy and us, and pointed at the sand table with his baton, so as to make clear the plan for this invasion of Korea.

The Huang family has always paid attention to on-the-spot reconnaissance and intelligence gathering, and all deployments are strongly targeted, never taken for granted, and there will be no encounters with large corps.

This time, there is no difficulty in meeting the tactical requirements, and to achieve the strategic goal, it is necessary to see whether the three aspects of Houjin, North Korea, and Dongjiang Town develop in the direction of Bingqi's deduction.

The Jiannu who remained in the territory of Korea were only a thousand and relatively scattered, and they were more than enough to deter the Goryeo, and they would die ugly when they encountered the Huang family.

The key to this battle depends on whether the Yalu River can be blocked, so that Jiannu cannot be reinforced by thousands of troops. If you can do it, you win.

There is no need to consider the people's backs, everyone in Korea admires the Han civilization, because the Ming Dynasty's war of aid to Korea is still fresh in the memory, North Korea's recognition of the Celestial Empire is undoubted, and it is extremely contemptuous of the barbarian slaves.
