Chapter 413: 'Prince Brand' Tang Monk Meat

The imperial doctor was soon reported, and then, the entire prince's mansion was full of joy. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info even the guards inside and outside the guards, one by one, there were bright smiles on their faces. For no other reason, the crown princess is pregnant.

Chen Ming's heirs are not abundant and everyone knows that he has only one sister-in-law under his knees, except for not even a daughter. In this era of high infant mortality rates, this is absolutely unsafe.

Although Chen Ming's position in Chen Han is firm and unshakable, the defects in the heirs are also as obvious as Chen Ming's unshakable and stable position.

Especially Chen Huidu, the Han king who is more than forty years old, has a son and a daughter, Chen Ming, the invincible prince who is in the sand, why is this so useless?

Now that Li Xiaomei is pregnant, His Royal Highness Chen Ming, the crown prince, is already ecstatic.

God, he's only twenty years old. In the 21st century, you can't get married at this age. But in this era, Chen Ming is already secretly worried about the shortcomings of his heirs. Although on the surface, he didn't put the slightest pressure on Li Xiaomei and them.

Li Xiaomei was lying on the bed with a stupid expression, holding her abdomen with both hands, her face full of disbelief. ...... I was pregnant, so I was pregnant?

Chen Ming sat down on the edge of the bed, and when Li Xiaomei saw him, the tears in her eyes could no longer be suppressed. God knows how miserable she is about this. How many nights did she even want to push Chen Ming to sleep in the side hospital, and she didn't know how many tears she left when she was alone in bed.

Mama Wang also wiped the tears from her eyes, Li Xiaomei's 'suffering' in this matter can't be hidden from the people around them.

Chen Ming sat on the edge of the bed, holding Li Xiaomei's hand and gently stroking it, his heart was extremely excited and excited, and he didn't know what to say for a while. This kid came too suddenly, too surprised. He patted Li Xiaomei's hand: "Okay." Now it's all right. ”

Li Xiaomei listened to his voice, and her heart couldn't help but feel hot, and her tears fell faster. "Yes, it's okay now, it's really good......" Infertility is a thing, in this era, it is always women who suffer.

Chen Ming hurriedly hugged her and said, "Why are you crying more urgently?" I can't cry anymore. ”

Li Xiaomei shook her head, rested her head on his shoulder, and said, "I'm mentally happy, really happy." I didn't expect this kid to come right now. I thought I would never get pregnant again. "And I was sick during the New Year. Li Xiaomei didn't think that she would get pregnant in a short time. Suddenly, the surprise arrived. She touched her lower abdomen, and suddenly became worried, she had drunk the medicine for ten days in a row, and it would not have an effect on the child?

"Happy, I'm really happy......" If it weren't for the image of herself in front of Chen Ming, she would have wanted to bury her head and cry.

Chen Ming hugged his wife and laughed, also revealing a sense of relief. He probed Li Xiaomei's mediocre lower abdomen with one hand, and now he can't see it at all, the child is less than two months old, and the doctor said that it is only one and a half months. In this way, it is the seed planted in the first ten days of the previous year, and now there is another little life, which is his own heir, the child of himself and Li Xiaomei, the second child.

Outside came the voice of Mama Wang, this Mama Wang is the original neighbor of the Li family, she was on duty in a large family in her early years, her son and daughter-in-law are dead, and she has no relatives, she has received a lot of favors from the Li family on weekdays, and Li Xiucai left fifty taels of silver for Mrs. Wang when she 'slipped away', so that she had the opportunity to give it to Li Xiaomei. The two sides were put on a line, and Mrs. Wang simply entered the house and became Mama Wang. "His Royal Highness the Prince, the Crown Princess, Liu Liangdi from the mansion and a few servants have come to say hello to His Royal Highness."

Chen Ming became the crown prince, and the crown princess is naturally Li Xiaomei's, but the daughters under the crown princess must also have corresponding titles, right? Comprehensive Han, Tang, Song and Ming Dynasty systems, a total of three classes, Liangdi is the first class, the selection of the waiter is the second class, and the talent is the third class.

Liu Bangyun is naturally Liangdi, and the rest of the people waited for Chen Ming to shake his hand, and all of them were servants.

Liu Bangyun and the others outside the door all had a smile on their faces, and those who didn't know would think that Chen Ming's harem was peaceful, and his wife and concubines lived in harmony, otherwise his wife was pregnant, how could the concubines be so happy?

But if you ask Liu Wanyun, she will definitely smack you in the face, "Fool." Of course I'm happy. The crown princess is pregnant, isn't this prince vacant? ”

If no one is pregnant, Chen Ming's attraction only exists in 'pampering'. But no matter how favored you are, you can't surpass the crown princess.

But now that the crown princess is pregnant, when the news spread quickly throughout the backyard, Liu Wanyun and the others opened their mouths wide, and then when they thought about His Royal Highness the 'wise and martial', it was not just a pamper, but a child.

As long as you can give birth to a son and a half daughter, this child will be your support for the rest of your life. For harem women, how long can the king's favor last? Only when you have children can you really rely on. So when he entered the room, when a group of warblers and Yanyan congratulated Li Xiaomei and Chen Ming, Chen Ming suddenly felt that his woman was looking at his eyes ......, it was called a hot one.

He didn't know that he had suddenly evolved from a piece of 'fat meat' to 'Tang monk meat' just now.

"This group of foxes dares to ...... in front of the crown princess"

After Chen Ming left, Mama Wang trembled angrily. Those shameless women, shameless, shameless! dared to seduce His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in front of the crown princess, and the fox smell on his face was full of swagger, and he couldn't wait to pull His Royal Highness the prince into the house immediately. This, this ......, is so shameless.

Li Xiaomei leaned on the pillow, looking indifferent, her most precious thing now is the child in her belly, and as for the child's father, then take a step back.

"Don't say this in the future, it's not good for people to hear it." You'll think she's not tolerant. "If you hook it, you hook it. I already have a body, can I continue to dominate the prince? "It is not only the responsibility of the crown prince, but also the responsibility of her, the crown princess.

People hook up is not a skill, "If you can get pregnant, you can call it really capable!" “

……

The spring breeze in February blows the earth, the spring in the south of the Yangtze River is bright, and everything recovers. The willow silk that gave birth to small buds, poked out its head to welcome the grass of spring, and the new year has arrived.

But on the northern sea, Haiphong is still bitterly cold.

Tian Qing, who sailed north from Wusong Port, was dressed in thick cotton clothes, standing in the stern building and looking at the fleet under his hands, there were 20 large and small warships and 6 transport ships, which contained a newly formed marine battalion.

The order to attack came down very early. However, due to the ice floes in the northern seas, it was postponed until February.

The northeasterly winds have weakened a lot, but they are still far from the southeast monsoon in summer and autumn. Twenty-six ships made their way north, blown by the north-east wind.

Beyond Chengshanjiao, the easternmost protrusion of the Jiaodong Peninsula in Shandong, what was surprising was that they found two slow boats on the surface of the Ninghai Prefecture -- before they reached the waters of Dengzhou Prefecture -- which were patrolled by the Qing army.

In the face of the overwhelmingly superior enemy, they shouldered the heavy responsibility of patrolling and guarding the safety of Shandong's territorial waters, and decisively turned the bow of the ship and fled frantically.

But the speed of the boat was a tragedy. It didn't take long for them to catch up with two small Tong'an Shuttle boats.

At this time, the two rushing ships also found that they could not escape, and they began to desperately return fire with the few small cannons on board, two rushing boats, one medium and one small, one loaded with five guns, and the other loaded with two guns. There were also a few shotgunners who also stood in the side of the ship and fired at the Fu Han warship, regardless of whether they could hit it or not.

Two small Tongan Shuttle ships, loaded with not many cannons, four each. But four cannons, two three-pound guns, two five-pound guns. Even if you don't load the dragon bombs, it will be a piece of cake to sink two ships on the sea. What's more, all they had to do was to stumble on these two ships and wait until their own army came up.

The order to open fire was given, and the four guns fired one after another, three catties and three catties; Five catties, five catties; Four shells whizzed towards the ships of the Qing army at a distance of five or six hundred meters. Due to the strong wind and waves at sea, coupled with the fact that it was the first round of shelling, the accuracy was not very good. All four shells fell into the sea.

The Qing army's counterattack was the same as that of the Fu Han army, and no one on either side hit in the first round. The speed of the ships of both sides continued to approach.

When the bilateral distance was reduced to about 400 meters, the hull of the ship was turned around and the second round of shelling began.

The Qing army did not create a miracle, and their morale was greatly reduced, and now returning fire can only be regarded as 'firing artillery', firing artillery for the sake of opening artillery. There was no thought of sinking or wounding enemy ships at all. And every time the artillery fire of the Fu Han army roared, it was aimed again and again.

Three of the four shells missed, one of which broke the mainsail of the small rushing ship.

There was a window-sized hole in the hard sail. The hot bomb also ignited a little flame, but under the blowing of Haiphong, the flame did not burn into a raging fire, but quickly extinguished.

But with one there will be two. Soon a five-pound iron bullet hit the side of the Qing army's boat, and immediately a hole was broken on the side of the ship.

There was no suspense in this battle. Tian Qing wanted to capture these two Qing warships alive, and the result was that he captured these two warships. The sails were broken, the mast was torn off by the chain bullets, and the Qing army had no choice but to surrender.

The combat effectiveness of Tian Qing's fleet was much, much higher than theirs.

Through interrogation of the prisoners of war, Tian Qing knew that the foothold of the two warships was not in Ninghai Prefecture, but in Yantai.

Yantai? Tian Qing is very unfamiliar with this place name. Shandong's seaports are only Jiaozhou and Dengzhou, and the other is Zhifu Island, where did Yantai come from? Let the captives point out on the map, and sure enough, it is an inconspicuous place. It is said that it is the 31st year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty, in order to prevent the attack of the Japanese invaders, the Ming Dynasty built the Qishan at the northern foot of the Qishan to guard the city of thousands of households at the same time, set up the wolf smoke pier platform in the Beishan, also known as the beacon tower, and the Beishan was changed to Yantai Mountain. Yantai got its name from this.

But to elaborate, Zhifu Island. Tian Qing immediately realized. He said, "That place looks familiar, but it's there." Who knows Yantai in this era, saying that Zhifu Island will not be available soon.

In addition to Jiaozhou and Dengzhou, it should be the third most famous port in Shandong.

In the past, one Shandong Sailor was stationed in Jiaozhou, Qingdao in later generations, and the other was stationed in Dengzhou, with the North Dengzhou receiving the Tianjin Naval Division and the South Jiaozhou receiving the Liangjiang Naval Division.

But where do they dare to do this now?

The warships docked in Jiaozhou Bay were all small clippers, mainly for reconnaissance. The few remaining main warships were stationed in Dengzhou Shuicheng, and later, Beijing considered that the distance was too far, so it ordered the Dengzhou Naval Division to allocate a part of it to be stationed in Yantai.

"Qing, Tartar...... Tartar also arranged a fort in Yantai, and Lu Yong garrisoned two or three thousand people. ”

Kneeling in front of Tian Qing was a thousand generals of the Qing army, who had no dignity as a soldier at the moment, and scolded the Manchus as tartars. All the military information he knew was all he could tell.

"Two or three thousand Lu Yong, fifteen large and small warships, and three forts." Tian Qing shook his head regretfully, there were too few people under him. If there is another marine battalion, he will definitely dare to pay attention to Yantai.

"Let's go eat Hainingzhou. Yantai is a hard bone and does not gnaw. Let's eat fat. "Although according to the prisoners' confessions, there are also two battalions of green battalion garrisons in Haining Prefecture, plus one or two thousand village warriors.

However, Haining Prefecture is not close to the sea, there is no casting fort, and there is a river in the east of Haining Prefecture - Jinshui River, which flows into the sea to the north. The river is wide, no less than fifty zhang, and although the water depth is a little shallower, the convoy composed of small warships and fortune ships is enough to enter.

Tian Qing could organize a team to attack Ninghai Prefecture City.

If Ninghai can be broken, the shock to Shandong will definitely be greater than the gain and loss of an 'inconspicuous' small seaport.

Under Tian Qing's orders, five small warships were the first to enter the Jinshui estuary, followed by six transport ships. Eleven ships rushed to the outside of Ninghaizhou, six transport ships rushed directly to the dock, and five small warships opened fire and bombarded a Qing army camp outside the dock.

The Qing army in Ninghai did not focus on guarding this place at all. The Qing army camp that the commander of the detachment thought was actually just a group of officials and villagers, whose task was not to guard and fight, but to maintain order at the docks, and the total number was only about 100. When it was bombarded by a cannon, it all collapsed.

This time, the first team of the Marine Battalion, which acted as the vanguard, under the leadership of the battalion officer Lu Lun, took only a quarter of an hour to completely control the dock. Then the teams gathered, and the Qing army in the city of Ninghaizhou also received the news, and organized a team to rush to the dock.

Lu Lun only had time to gather the three teams of people, so he went up without showing weakness.

At that time, he and several of his hardcore brothers blew up the ten largest gunboats of the Taihu Water Division of the Qing Army for 2,000 taels of silver. Lu Lun and the others got the silver because they wanted to be incognito and go to other places to be rich. As a result, who knew that the Fu Han army was fighting more and more, and the more it fought, the stronger it became. Lu Lun, who was itching in his heart, led the two brothers who were still willing to fight to defect to the Fuhan Army Sailor, and then walked step by step to the position of the current battalion officer.

The Marine battalion had no heavy firepower, and all they had was eight medium mortars. Now, of course, they have ten cannons on five small warships behind them.

"Boom, boom, boom......"

The Qing troops, who rushed in a hurry, ran headlong into the crossfire of solid shells fired by naval guns and flowering shells fired by mortar guns.

When their top officer was shot dead by the snipers of the Fu Han Army, and when the soldiers of the three teams of the Marine Battalion lined up in three columns, fired a neat row of guns, and pressed towards the Qing army, the thousands of Qing troops and village warriors who had been killed in a hurry dispersed in a hurry.

The walls of Ninghaizhou City are not tall or thick, but there are cannons on the city. However, the artillery of the Fu Han army needed to be carefully unloaded from the warships, except that the fleet in the Jinshui River also needed to be careful of the fireboats that the Qing army had laid down.

There were some soldiers of the green battalion of the Qing army standing at the head of the city of Ninghaizhou, mixed with a large number of Ding Zhuang in disorganized clothes, although they knew that the attacks launched by the Fu Han army on the sea were mostly guerrillas, and there were few land soldiers, which gave them more confidence and courage in the face of the Fu Han army. However, the Qing army's armament here was poor, and the morale was still very low, and the defeat of the right people made them unable to muster up the confidence to win. (To be continued.) )
