"What about the others? Weihaiwei won't be the only one with you, right? ”

There were a lot of people around the wharf, but Xie Hong looked around and found that they were all ordinary people, looking at their clothes and complexions, compared to those military households in Liaodong, they were a little stronger, and there should be no officials in the meantime. 【】

However, this Weihaiwei is also a David Institute, how can there be only one thousand households? Xie Hong was a little puzzled, it couldn't be that the person surnamed Li knew about the enemy family and ran away, right?

"This ......" Zhao Zhong hesitated, and the commander ran away without even seeing the banner of the person who came, which made him feel very embarrassed Wei Haiwei's face, not to mention that it was a famous plague god, who knows if the other party will be angry, and if he will be angry with himself after being angry?

"Huh?" Xie Hong's eyes froze slightly.

Zhao Zhongsheng has thick eyebrows and big eyes, and he has a tiger's back and a bear's waist, which makes people know at a glance that he is an authentic Shandong man, and he is enough to throw out Xie Hong's two streets by looking at the might.

However, when it comes to identity and status, as well as prestige, it is much worse, although Xie Hong doesn't understand the look, but Zhao Zhong feels that those two gazes are like substance, falling on him, as if they have a thousand powers, so that he can't even stand up.

"Lord Qiqi, the commander made Lord Li see your fleet, and mistakenly thought that it was a large-scale attack by the Japanese invaders, so he went to Qingzhou Mansion to report for help......"

Jiang Bin was the first to sneer: "Reporting? According to a certain point of view, he ran away, such a cowardly person can also serve as the commander of the guard, hmph, if there is really a foreign enemy to attack, it will really make people laugh at me Daming no one. ”

Headed by Jiang Bin, the generals under Xie Hong are all arrogant and fierce generals, and they look down on cowardly people the most, not to mention Li Yu's behavior, even described as cowardice, is a bit insufficient, which can be called wonderful.

Everyone burst into laughter and sneered: "Shandong is obviously a place where heroes come out, and I don't know why Weihaiwei is so unbearable, it really ruined Shandong's reputation." ”

Knowing what happened to the Lu brothers back then, under the same hatred of the enemy, the generals had a discounted impression of Weihaiwei, and when they heard the other party doing this, they were even more ridiculed.

Xie Hong also shook his head and was speechless, this Li Tongzhi is indeed a strange person, fierce as a tiger and wolf to his own people, and timid as a mouse to foreign enemies, which can be regarded as a typical example.

If the generals of the coastal guard are all like this, it is no wonder that in the history of later generations, the pirates mixed with some of the Japanese ronin can set off a huge storm, not that the enemy is too strong, but the coastal guard is really unusable.

"Li Yu is not from our Shandong, if it weren't for the shadow of his ancestors, where would it be his turn to be in charge of Weihaiwei?" was ridiculed by everyone, Zhao Zhong's face turned red all of a sudden, Li Yu was indeed embarrassed, but if he denied the blood of Weihai Weiye, then he would not admit it.

Although he was afraid of Xie Hong's prestige and did not dare to refute it loudly, Zhao Zhong still muttered in a low voice, and there was also an unconvinced look on his face.

"Okay, stop laughing." None of the others paid attention to Zhao Zhong, but Xie Hong's observation was so keen, he could see the other party's reaction, and his heart moved slightly. He smiled and waved his hand, and ordered: "After so many days, you should have a good rest, Brother Jiang, you can arrange it." ”

"Whoa." Jiang Bin surrendered his order.

"Zhao Qianhu ......"

"Humble position, please ask Master Hou to command."

"Ben Hou is going to stay in Weihaiwei for a few days, and you have also seen that there are many North Korean sailors under Ben Hou's command, most of whom do not understand Chinese, so when you settle down, you will have to worry a lot about it."

"Master Hou rest assured, he dares not to serve his life."

"Use everything, you just have to record it truthfully, and then you can find the book when you are done."

"This ......" Zhao Zhong was stunned, Xie Hong's previous order was not surprising to him, ships coming from the direction of North Korea would often dock in Dengzhou or Weihai for supplies, and eighty percent of Champion Hou's fleet also came from the same direction, so it was reasonable that they would dock here.

But although he had never seen a big official from the sea, he had seen a lot of officials from Qingzhou Mansion or the governor's yamen. These people are all Shangguan, and the cost of eating, drinking, and lodging is, of course, paid by the health office, and then distributed layer by layer, how can anyone mention it?

The person in front of him was the governor of a province, whose identity was far greater than those he had seen before, and suddenly gave such an order...... Zhao Zhong was at a loss, could it be that this was a new model of asking for bribes?

"What kind of identity does Master Hou have, will he lie to you? Come, Zhao Qianhu, you hurry up and coordinate, whether it is a barracks or a dwelling, there are thousands of people on these ships, and they all have to settle down before dark, so you can't hurry up. Before Zhao Zhong could change his mind, Scarface pulled him over, walking all the way, shouting all the way, and a series of orders were issued.

After this period of training, the Korean naval force has not improved its combat effectiveness, but it has achieved remarkable results in obeying orders. When Zhao Zhong came back to his senses, he was stunned to find that thousands of North Korean sailors had been neatly divided into teams and were on standby.

Of course, Zhao Zhong didn't know that the Korean soldiers were scared by Xie Hong, and then trained under the whip, he just admired it in his heart.

The Korean soldiers I have seen in the past have all followed the envoys, but they are only scattered between advance and retreat, how can they have such a strict posture?

It is rumored in the world that the champion Hou is the reincarnation of a god, and he is capable of what people cannot. It is not an exaggeration to say that the North Koreans can be trained like this.

Zhao Zhong is also a straightforward surname, seeing this, he secretly has the intention of not admitting defeat, he shook his spirits, and also shouted, turning the hundreds of households and small banners below.

The guides, the coordinators of the dwellings, and the cleaning of the barracks were arranged one by one, and although the command was a little chaotic, it was also in order, and with the cooperation of both sides, thousands of people were quickly settled.

"This Zhao Qianhu is also a talent, but he is not reused, with the breadth of my Ming territory, such buried talents are unknown, it is really embarrassing."

This kind of command and dispatch matter, Xie Hong is generally delegated, and does not participate too much, when Jiang Bin and the others are busy, he goes up to Wenchang Pavilion, climbs high to look at the scenery of Weihaiwei, and the busy situation outside is naturally in full view. When he saw that Zhao Zhong commanded and dispatched effectively, he also sighed with emotion.

"That was in the past, but now that the Holy Son of Heaven is in the court, and with the assistance of the Hou Ye, we can wait for the Ming Dynasty." The monkey listened to it clearly, and couldn't help laughing: "Master Hou, weren't you still saying before, you have to hurry up, why do you suddenly have to stay here in Weihaiwei for a few days?" ”

"Well, I have some ideas again, and I still want to wait for that Li Yu to return." Xie Hong replied casually with a thoughtful expression.

He said it lightly, but Lu Xiaosi was taken aback, and hurriedly thanked him: "Master Hou, this little thing about his subordinate brothers is really nothing, and where is it worth Lord Hou to delay the trip for this?" If it weren't for the revisit, those old things would have been forgotten by the subordinates, and they didn't dare to take it, they really didn't dare to take it. ”

Xie Hong turned his head and saw that Lu Xiaosi's face was full of anxiety, sweating on his forehead, obviously under considerable pressure, he smiled dumbly and explained: "Fourth Brother Lu, where do you want to go?" It's not easy to take revenge alone, just issue an edict to take him, just a commander who knows the same thing, how much more wind and waves can be turned? Staying here, mainly for this Weihaiwei. ”

"Weihaiwei?" Hou and Lu were both surprised.

"Yes, this place in Weihaiwei is actually very good......"

The most similar place between Weihaiwei and Jinzhouwei is the geographical location, these two guards are at the tip of the two peninsulas, and they are both deep-water harbors, one south and one north, guarding the Bohai Bay.

In the era when sea power was not valued, both places were forgotten places, but once the sea was opened, Liangwei became a very important strategic location. The Beiyang Naval Division of later generations took Lushun as the main port and Weihai as the auxiliary port. Now, under the construction of Xie Hong, Lushun already has the prototype of a military port, and Weihai should also be arranged here.

The place he had intended was Dengzhou, a thoroughfare where the sea was more frequent and could be used as a trading port. It's just that, unlike Liaodong, he is still out of reach here in Shandong for the time being, and if he wants to control Dengzhou, he has to wait until the Ming Dynasty and the year after tomorrow when the situation is stable before he can gradually advance over.

However, after arriving in Weihaiwei by chance, Xie Hong's thoughts changed.

The strategic location here is more important, and others don't pay much attention to it, just like Jin Zhouwei at the beginning of the year, as long as you clean up that Li Yu, you can make a layout in advance outside of the perception of others.

“…… While quietly building a port, you can also avenge Fourth Brother Lu by the way, which is a way to kill two birds with one stone, two big brothers, don't you say? ”

"I see," the two nodded together, and the monkey asked again: "So, Hou Ye has taken a fancy to that Zhao Zhong?" ”

"Yes, this person's surname is quite straightforward, and he is indeed a good candidate, Brother Hou, you can send someone to inquire when you go back and see how his reputation is among the people." Xie Hong nodded.

"Whoa."

Xie Hong turned to Lu Xiaosi again, and said slightly apologetically: "Fourth Brother Lu, you may have to work hard tomorrow, alas, in this way, you will not be able to take revenge with your own hands, but it is a little regrettable." ”

"Eh, what did you say, Master Hou? It is the duty of subordinates to do things for Hou Ye, where can Hou Ye be like this? Master Hou, please just obey the orders. ”

"I'll ask Brother Hou to assign a few people to you, and then transfer a flywheel battleship, and then you ......" Xie Hong lowered his voice, but Lu Rending's eyes widened more and more, and he was already excited when he got to the back.

He said eagerly: "Master Hou just rest assured that he will send people to the place safely, but can his subordinates also go with him?" ”

Xie Hong smiled: "If you are interested, just go with you, but you have to leave a safe person on the boat to take care of you." ”

"Don't worry, Master Hou." Lu Rending looked overjoyed, and muttered in his mouth: "Beijing, ha, I used to hear people, but I didn't expect that Lu Xiaosi would also have the opportunity to enter Beijing...... Haha, go back and tell the second brother to them, don't you envy them to death? ”

"Cut, you are unproductive, follow the Hou Ye to do things, don't talk about entering Beijing, even if you enter the palace to see the emperor, it is not a difficult matter, I said, don't be too excited, and mess up the errand." The monkey knocked Lu Xiaosi disapprovingly, and sneered at this dirt bun.

"Can you still enter the palace? Can you still see the emperor? The mother grinned...... "Lu Xiaosi's eyes flashed with Venus when he heard it, and after his mouth opened, he never closed it again.
