"I said, young master, why are there only a thousand new uniforms, don't we have a total of 1,800 people?" Monk Chen, who was collecting some armaments and supplies, asked Liang Pengfei, who was standing aside and looking at this batch of newly arrived military supplies, in confusion.

"There are 800 people who can only be counted as patrols, not soldiers, so their uniforms are not the same as those of soldiers, and they may not arrive for a day or two in the evening." Liang Pengfei patiently explained. Because Fukangan told him in his reply to Liang Pengfei that according to the Qing military system, a battalion of soldiers should not exceed 1,000 people at most, but because Liang Pengfei was his own person, in order to take care of him Young Master Liang, he specially told Liang Pengfei a trick.

That is to let Xin'an County recruit those 800 people as patrol officers, however, the cost is naturally paid by the Liang family, naturally, these 800 patrols are placed in the naval battalion, or in the county seat, which is naturally a matter of a word from the governor of Fukangan, in this way, in line with the system, and strengthens the defense strength of the Xin'an naval battalion.

"These officials really have a lot of fucking ideas." Bai Shusheng couldn't help but sigh and said, Wu Liang, the head of the camp next to him, could only roll his eyes vigorously, he still didn't know where this Liang was guarding now, but he was very stable with the backer of the big Buddha of Fukangan.

Moreover, after a colleague in Guangzhou sent a letter to him, he learned that this Liang was a pirate, and he even overthrew a big pirate leader like the Xiyi thief chief Pulsatilla Owen.

Just thinking about the experience of the Great Shimizu Master encountering that Pulsatilla Owen fiasco back then, it was enough to make Wu Liang make up his mind to follow the footsteps of this Liang Garrison and do things honestly. This guy was born as a pirate, and now he is the garrison of the Qing Dynasty, who knows if he annoys this guy, will he kill him and report an enemy attack and die?

Thinking of this fate, Wu Liang felt that his heart was beating hard.

At this moment, Liang Pengfei didn't have the heart to pay attention to the nonsense of this Qianzong, but looked at the soldiers who were practicing on the school field, the 1,000 old, weak, sick and disabled who were originally newly camped, Liang Pengfei picked up two hundred people, plus eight hundred Liang children, finally barely enough to get together a thousand people, as for those who were brushed down, they naturally hung up the name of patrol, stayed in the barracks and did some chores, as well as took care of and repaired warships, and sometimes went to Xin'an County to go shopping and maintain the order, Catch a thief or something, and finally make the best use of it.

"Your grandmother, why is there no war now, if there is, Lao Tzu can also be promoted and make a fortune, otherwise, could it be that Dao has always been a small garrison leading thousands of people to patrol the sea?" Liang Pengfei touched his chin, his mind was full of cranky thoughts, and at this time, that martial arts rushed towards Liang Pengfei from the side of Daying Wharf.

"What's going on?" Liang Pengfei asked with a frown. After taking a few big breaths, Wu Qianjin's eyes fell on Wu Liang, the battalion commander behind Liang Pengfei.

"Mr. Wu Qian, you go and see those little cubs performing, who dares to be lazy, let them run five laps around the school field for me." Liang Pengfei saw Wu Qianjin's strange expression and knew that something must be wrong, so he pushed Wu Liang away.

Wu Liang nodded, and walked straight to the school field, he was not interested in knowing what Liang Pengfei didn't want him to know, after experiencing the ordeal of death, I am afraid that only after experiencing the ordeal of death can I understand that life is so precious, at least Wu Liang thinks so.

"Young Master, Miss Shi is here to find you." Wu Qianjin looked at the figure of Wu Liang leaving, and then leaned into Liang Pengfei's ear and whispered.

"Miss Shi, which one...... What the?! Liang Pengfei suddenly jumped up and stared in disbelief. Where is she? Say! ”

As soon as Liang Pengfei heard that there was a small boat waiting for him, he strode out, but as soon as he walked to the pier, he saw a personal soldier of Shi Xianggu who had seen him fighting side by side on King Crab Island.

But at this time, the soldier dressed as a fisherman was staring at his robe with his eyes fixed, and his expression was not angry but slightly resentful.

Liang Pengfei noticed that he was still wearing the Manchu official robe, and secretly scolded damn it, but Liang Pengfei didn't bother to say much, so he unbuttoned it on the spot, divided it by two, took off the official robe, crumpled it into a ball and threw it to Wu Qianjin behind him, and jumped from the dock to the deck of the fishing boat wearing only a blue coat. "Brother, go, I'll see you young lady."

"Young Master, wait for us." Bai Shusheng and Monk Chen were just about to jump on the boat, but they were stopped by Liang Pengfei. "Okay, I'll just go alone, you can do whatever you want."

"How does this work?" Monk Chen said in a hurry. In the end, Monk Chen left the dock with Liang Pengfei, and Bai Shusheng could only look resentful: "Monk of the dog, if something goes wrong with the young master, see how Lao Tzu cleans you up." ”

"Is your young lady okay?"

"It's not good."

"Thin or fat?"

"Won't you know in a moment?"

"......" Liang Pengfei made the answer of Shi Xianggu's personal soldier angry, and rolled his eyes. However, there was no way, he knew that this pro-soldier must be full of grievances and questions in his heart, but it was really not easy for him to explain the country's righteousness to a pro-soldier about these things, and then make up his mind and then act.

However, the indifference of the soldiers made Liang Pengfei understand that he was afraid that Shi Xianggu also had the same thoughts.

Liang Pengfei stood at the bow of the boat, frowning, should he tell her everything?

In a bay far from the dock of the Xin'an Navy Division, there were two inconspicuous fishing boats moored in it, and on one fishing boat, five fishermen were working hard, but the fishermen's eyes were so vigilant and sharp, looking around from time to time, and occasionally, touching their waists, where there was a short dagger overflowing with cold light, and under the basket of the deck under their feet, there were several loaded firearms.

In another fishing boat, a child was fishing with a fishing rod, but he was scratching his head and ears, but he didn't seem to have the heart to fish. On the deck of the fishing boat behind him, there were three fisherwomen weaving fishing nets, they were flying needles and threads in the hanging fishing nets, and from time to time they whispered a word or two, and the big hats on their heads, covered by green veils underneath, completely concealed their appearances in shadows, and only the hands that were whiter and more delicate than ordinary fishermen showed that they seemed to be a little different from ordinary fisherwomen.

"Miss, isn't this too dangerous?" After dressing up, Bai Hanyu, who was wearing a fisherman's robe, looked at the sea in the distance a little nervously, and from time to time stopped repairing the fishing net in his hand and touched the long knife hidden at his feet.

Next to him, Zhang Xiaotong also looked at Shi Xianggu with a worried face. "Godmother, let's go back."

"It's okay, don't be too nervous, isn't it just to meet that guy, what's the matter, are you still afraid that he will eat me?" The corners of Shi Xianggu's mouth hidden under the green veil were slightly curved, revealing a hint of mockery, and the resoluteness between the corners of her eyes and eyebrows represented her mind at the moment.

"That is, I support my godmother, Uncle Liang will definitely not be a bad person." The little kid who was fishing was none other than Zhang Baozai, and at this moment he also squeezed over, trying to widen his dark eyes and pouting, as if to make some kind of assurance.

－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－

"Miss ......" Bai Hanyu opened her mouth, but after coming into contact with Shi Xianggu's distressing expression, she finally closed her mouth, and after a short while, Shi Xianggu's face turned white, and she quickly rushed to the side of the fishing boat and vomited, Bai Hanyu stroked Shi Xianggu's shoulders and back with a distressed face, and after a while, Shi Xianggu seemed to have eased up, looking at Miss's haggard face, Bai Hanyu couldn't help but pause: "If he dares to move Miss, I will fight with him." ”

"Okay Xiaobai, don't say these stupid things, I came here to wait for him, just to see him, or it's not the Liang Pengfei I know." Shi Xianggu stretched out her hand and tightly held Xiao Bai's slightly cold hand, and her eyes in the shadows were also a little more gentle because of Bai Hanyu's concern.

"Miss, our people are back!" At this time, the pro-soldier pretending to be a fisherman on the fishing boat next to him shouted at this side, Shi Xianggu raised his eyes to the black shadow of the clipper that had just appeared on the sea in the distance, gradually, the clipper got closer and closer, Shi Xianggu finally saw clearly, on the bow of the clipper, there was a tall and straight figure, he was constantly turning back and shouting something, as if urging the boat to go faster, faster...... "It's Uncle Liang, it's him, he's coming, godmother, look, it's Uncle Liang." Zhang Baozai jumped excitedly on the deck, waving his arms desperately, and the immature and excited shouts echoed on the sea.

"He's coming, it's him!" Shi Xianggu muttered to herself, the frost-covered pretty face on her face showed anticipation and excitement, and her hand involuntarily squeezed Xiaobai's hand, with so much force that Bai Hanyu couldn't help but take a light breath, frowning slightly, and when Shi Xianggu noticed her gaffe and let go of her hand apologetically, Bai Hanyu's arm was already surrounded by a circle of finger marks.

Although Shi Xianggu was wearing a hat on her head, a green gauze on her face, and a coarse cloth dress on her body, Liang Pengfei recognized Shi Xianggu at first sight, and his eyes kept falling on her body, as if he could penetrate the barrier between the green yarn and the hat, and fell directly into her heart.

The eyes of the two are entangled together in the distance of space and time, as if the noise of the waves and the voices of the people around them have disappeared without a trace, and between heaven and earth, only they are left.
