After some clouds and rain, Ye Qian'er happily snuggled in Cheng Yue's arms, and said softly: "Childe, or the concubine will also move to Sister Dingniang's courtyard, so as not to let Childe run around every night." ”

Cheng Yue scratched her nose and said with a smile: "What do you think, what about other sisters?" Are they all moving over? I don't want to snub you these days, so I secretly came over at night to steal incense and jade, I can't always do this. But my little Qian'er is getting more and more charming, and I can't do without you more and more because of you. In this way, I'll make a rule in a few days, take turns to sleep in your room, and then I'll find a way to sleep with my good Qian'er, okay? ”

When Ye Qian'er heard this, Cheng Yue didn't have to live in Dingniang's room every day, she hugged Cheng Yue happily and kissed her, and said coquettishly: "The son has to be counted when he speaks, and the concubine wants to wake up with the son." As long as she is held by her son, the concubine is the happiest woman in the world. ”

Cheng Yue patted her ass and said, "You are a fair person." I'll go back first, I'm going to wronged you a little bit in the next few days, and the rules will be settled. Tomorrow will be hard, don't be in a hurry about the mirror, improve the process first, and then launch it after a while. Magnifiers and microscopes need to be hurried, with them scientific research will be greatly promoted, and many of my theories can be confirmed. ”

Ye Qian'er wrote them down one by one, and Cheng Yue kissed her on the mouth again before getting up and returning to Dingniang.

When he got up in the morning, Cheng Yue was about to go to the school to give a lecture after breakfast, when Wang Li, who was stationed outside the city, took Zhang Xiaozhong, Toto, Zhang Gui, Zhang Shijie and two sailors to come together. When I saw Cheng Yue, I would like to see you together.

Cheng Yue saw that there was a water army, and said with a smile: "Are Li Ting and Liu Guojie coming soon?" ”

Zhang Gui said: "It will be two hours away." The naval battalion is ready. Su Liuyi and Zhang Yan opposed the entry of our naval army. But the court did not dare to support them, and the navy of the imperial court was very cooperative, and was willing to obey the orders of the metropolitan governor, but begged the metropolitan governor not to make it public. ”

Cheng Yue nodded and said, "Yes, but you must not be at both ends, there is only one chance." ”

Zhang Shijie said: "Governor Dadu, if I enter the navy to select sergeants, Li Ting and Liu Guojie will definitely be dissatisfied." They had to be ordered by the Governor. ”

Cheng Yue stood up and said, "No, I'll go in person." Come with me. With that, he strode out.

When several people heard this, they immediately followed and headed for the naval camp in Hangzhou Bay.

The Hangzhou Bay Navy Camp is quite far away from Lin'an, more than 100 miles, and there are densely populated places along the way. Cheng Yue waited out of the city, and he didn't dare to gallop all the way, and he arrived in time for almost two hours.

On the water surface of Hangzhou Bay, there are already sails and shadows, swords and guns like forests, and there are cannons on individual ships.

There were already cannons in the Yuan Dynasty, and they were often used in foreign wars in the Yuan Dynasty. But at that time, the artillery-making process was too primitive, and the gunpowder was not good enough. It is not far away and inaccurate, and is generally used for bombardment and siege of dense attacks. Because Cheng Yue had always avoided a hard-to-head battle with the Yuan army, he had never encountered a cannon attack from the Yuan army. But several large ships of the Yuan army had cannons, but Cheng Yue didn't like it at all, so he had to melt it and cast new cannons when the time came.

In front of the palace, there are more than 1,000 warships under the command of Zhang Yan, all of which are inland river boats, with shallow drafts and small boats, and use bows and crossbows as the main weapons.

The general who led the army was called He Zhang, and his father wanted him to follow the text, so he named him He Zhang after the name of He Zhizhang, but in the end he became a military general. He followed Zhang Yan in several battles, and although he did not make great contributions, he was also very brave in battle. This time, the naval camp was occupied by Cheng Yue, Zhang Yan objected, and secretly sent someone to inform him to find a way to refuse Cheng Yue's naval army to enter. But with only 1,000 ships and 6,000 or 7,000 troops, how could he compete with Cheng Yue's 20,000 elite naval army? What's more, Cheng Yue still has nearly 40,000 elite soldiers in Lin'an, and he doesn't even have a place to run. So when Cheng Yue sent someone to contact him, he immediately stated that he would be loyal to Cheng Yue, as long as he didn't say it publicly.

He Zhang was exchanging pleasantries with Li Ting and Liu Guojie, who had just disembarked from the ship, when a sergeant came to report that Governor Cheng had arrived outside the camp.

The three of them were surprised and delighted, and hurriedly all of them hurried out of the camp.

Cheng Yue saw that the door of the barracks was wide open, and Li Ting, Liu Guojie and a military general who had never seen him walked out, knowing that he was He Zhang.

The three of them saluted Cheng Yue in unison, but the military salute was different. Cheng Yue had no choice but to return the gift twice.

Everyone laughed, introduced each other and said hello before entering the camp together.

Cheng Yue is the chief, and although Zhang Shijie's official position is not inferior to him, he still stands honestly at the bottom. Li Ting stepped forward and handed over a report and said: "Governor, we dare not go far to the sea this time, the navy is not in a big problem, and the daily performance of the 10,000 army forces who are not familiar with water is written in the report. ”

Cheng Yue carefully read the report in his hand, this report is very important to him and has important reference value for his future campaign.

After reading the report, Cheng Yue nodded approvingly to Li Ting and Liu Guojie, and said, "Well done." With this report, I have a reference for laying things out. ”

put down the report, and said: "Zhang Shijie, Lord Zhang has been appointed by me as the commander of the Marine Corps, after you enter the camp to rest, Lord Zhang will enter the camp to select sergeants." If there is a shortage in the water army, you can recruit and make up for it yourself. The navy should be converted into a navy, and in the future, it must often go to sea for training, and it cannot stay in the rivers and lakes so unproductively. All the ships of the Navy will have to be replaced, and soon a real sea ship will be launched for sea trials. Remember what I said, 70% of the earth is ocean, and whoever controls the ocean can control the world! ”

The generals' spirits were greatly lifted, and Zhang Shijie was also excited, and replied loudly with other generals: "Yes!" "It can be regarded as admitting that he is Cheng Yue's general.

Liu Guojie said: "Governor, there is one more thing. Previously, the pirate Zhang Xuan said that he would be loyal to the Metropolitan Governor, and he would also send his son Zhang Zheng to the Metropolitan Governor as a hostage. On our trip to sea, we happened to meet the two leaders, Zhang Xuan and Zhu Qing. As a sign of sincerity, they all came with our ship to see the Governor, do you want to see them? ”

Cheng Yue smiled faintly and said, "These two guys, they really don't see rabbits and don't scatter eagles." If I hadn't been in the situation I have today, they wouldn't have died. Well, let them in, and I should meet them too. ”

After a while, two black men with fierce faces and full of wild spirit, and a teenager were brought in. Zhang Xuan and Zhu Qing were taken aback when they saw Cheng Yue. They originally thought that Cheng Yue must be a big man, but they didn't want to be a young and handsome descendant, if they didn't talk about his identity, there would be more like a scholar. But seeing that the fierce generals who were full of heroic and fierce generals all stood down in an orderly manner, knowing that they had met the main master, they didn't dare to hesitate, and they both saluted: "Zhu Qing and Zhang Xuan of the grass people meet the governor." ”

Cheng Yue smiled and said, "No courtesy, you are finally here." ”

Zhang Xuan heard Cheng Yue's words as if he was displeased, and hurriedly said: "The Governor of Dadu, the grass people and others wanted to come to visit the Governor of Dadu for a long time, but they only arrived now because of a few transactions that missed the itinerary." If the Governor wanted to blame, the grass people were willing to be punished. ”

Cheng Yue asked, "Oh? What to buy and sell? ”

Zhang Xuan said: "The governor of the capital sent more than 10,000 people to Ryukyu a few days ago, and these days there are many ships carrying various goods to the Ryukyus, and the navy is limited, so they can't take care of all of them. The little ones knew that this was a big deal for the Metropolitan Governor, and they didn't want people to interfere, so they escorted them on the side. As soon as he returned, he happened to meet the fleet of two military commanders training at sea, and the grass people asked to come to Lin'an to meet together.

Cheng Yue smiled: "Even my fleet dares to use their brains, it's really fatal, who are they?" ”

Zhu Qing hurriedly said: "Most of the Metropolitan Governors Tiger Whiskers, who dares to move?" There were only a few blind thieves who didn't know that it was the Governor's ship and wanted to take the opportunity to find some food, but they were persuaded by us to leave, and the Governor was angry. ”

Cheng Yue glanced at Zhu Qing and said, "If you don't say it's your righteousness, nothing happened anyway, so I won't ask anymore." You guys did a great job this time, I made a note of it. Do you know what I'm looking for you to do? ”

After looking at each other again, Zhang Xuan said: "The grass people heard that the Metropolitan Governor seems to be going to use troops overseas, and we are begging for a living at sea every day, and the Metropolitan Governor may be able to use us." ”

Cheng Yue nodded and said, "That's right, but that's not the main reason. Above all, I want you to conquer the New World for me. The world is big, and I need a lot of people to help me occupy as much land as possible, so that the wealth of the world can be used by my Han people. You are Han, I don't want to kill you, but so that you can make a career, do you understand? ”

Zhu Qing said with some confusion: "Grand Duke, what kind of place is the New World you are talking about?" ”

Cheng Yue said: "It's twenty or thirty thousand miles away from here. ”

The two of them were so frightened that they almost sat on the ground, and immediately begged for mercy: "Governor, it doesn't matter if you let us be cows and horses, don't let us not live." There are still four or five thousand people there, and we have no other ideas, just to live in peace and have something to eat. The Metropolitan Governor is gracious, the Metropolitan Governor is gracious. ”

Cheng Yue smiled: "This is scared? That's all you two have to offer? Do you think I'm going to let you sail away in your little broken boats? No, that's really sending you to death. I will build ships of the sea, and ships of the sea. All kinds of weapons and supplies above are well deserved to you, accurate charts are also given to you, and the customs and customs of various places are also taught to you, you only need to attack and consolidate according to what I say, and you will be the chief and deputy admiral of my ocean-going fleet. There is a lot of gold and countless treasures waiting for you in the New World, and it depends on whether you have the courage to take it. If not, you're of little use to me, just an ordinary army. The so-called wealth and danger are sought, you don't even understand this, right? ”

Zhang Xuan showed a hint of doubt and said boldly: "Most of the governors have these things, and they are elite generals, why do you let us go?" Does the Metropolitan Trust us so much? (To be continued......)
