Chapter 734: Who Belongs to the Miraculous Merit?

Dayakou, Nanao Island, South Australia General Military Office.

After a few days of sailor drills, Yan Jifang could clearly perceive a certain emotion among the generals below - many people already thought that he was going to use troops against pirates, and some even swore that the primary target was Lin Afeng's gang entrenched in Waiping. Of course, there are also some bold officers below who ran in front of him to find out the truth, and even pretended to say something, the soldiers are very fast, and such a large-scale training of the sailors will only leak the news, and when the real army is launched, those pirates will have long disappeared.

Some people want to compete for merit, some people are already pirates, some people collude with smugglers, and some people are the eyes of wealthy businessmen. Even if he is the chief soldier, it is impossible to distinguish them very clearly, let alone screen them one by one, and then get rid of them all.

So he simply ignored it, and personally went out to supervise the drill every day, making enough noise, and at the same time he sent a few of his most reliable henchmen to stay with Wang Fulin, first, to facilitate the transmission of news, and secondly, he was afraid that this Guangdong governor would be as ghostly as he was in Guangzhou. Fortunately, Wang Fulin except for ordering people to go to Chaozhou Mansion to deliver letters twice, there were no other moths.

Seeing that four or five days have passed, on this day, Yan Jifang finally couldn't help it, and after seeing a vacancy, he changed into civilian clothes, and quietly came to the temporary accommodation he arranged for Wang Fulin with only two entourages. As soon as he entered the courtyard gate, one of the guards he sent here quickly stepped forward and said with a solemn face: "Dashuai, someone just came to see Wang Ye, and he hasn't left yet!" ”

The people who know that Wang Fulin is here are either the people who Wang Fulin stayed in Chaozhou Mansion, or ...... Could it be that there is news from Waiping?

Yan Jifang was originally quite worried. Even though it was only speculation, he immediately lifted his spirits and walked three steps and two steps to the door of the main room. As soon as he wanted to knock on the door, he saw that the door was opened, but it was Wang Fulin who opened the door himself, and bowed to him: "I heard movement outside." I guessed that most of it was Yan Dashuai. This is the son of Zheng Bolugong, the former chief of staff of Hu Meilin, Mr. Zheng Mingxian, who has just arrived from Waiping! ”

When dealing with Wang Fulin before, Wang Fulin sold enough, but this time the other party was so straight to the point, Yan Jifang was a little unaccustomed to it. He used to be Qi Jiguang's general, and of course he was no stranger to Hu Zongxian, and Hu Zongxian was surrounded by a cloud of staff at that time, and Zheng Ruozeng was not as famous as Xu Wei. But it was also quite a famous one, which he had seen several times. Now seeing that the grandson of this old man was asked by Wang Fulin to come forward, he smiled and helped him without waiting for the other party to salute: "It is said that the tiger father has no dog, but I didn't expect that the descendants of Zheng Bolu Gong were so bold that they dared to go deep into the tiger's den and make contributions!" ”

If he hadn't made a contribution, would Wang Fulin be so radiant?

Although civil officials are more expensive than military attaches in these years, Zheng Mingxian did not go well in the scientific field, and he did not try again after failing the township test three times. At this moment, Yan Jifang, as the chief soldier, was so courteous, he felt that he was valued. The hardships and fears of the pirates in the past month or so have been thrown away. However, if he wants to take all the credit on himself, he is not so cheeky, and immediately hurriedly and humbly said: "Yan Dashuai has won the award, I want to say that he is bold." Lu Chang's departure from his brother is the first. followed by Du Xianggong and Miss Xiuzhu sent by Wang Xun, as well as those dead soldiers, I also came up with an idea. ”

He didn't mention it at all, it was Lin Afeng who he took by sneak attack.

"Eh, the work of making a plan. That's just as indispensable! Yan Jifang, with the purpose of saying good things and not asking for money, once again put on a bunch of high hats for Zheng Mingxian, and praised Wang Fulin's strategy with a smile, and then began to ask about the details.

Hearing that Zheng Ming first teamed up with Lu Guangwu, helped Fu Xiong, who only had a few people in one boat, expand his strength, and then went to take refuge with Lin Afeng, although he nodded on his face, he couldn't help but secretly laugh in his heart that those pirates were not in the climate now; Hearing that Xiuzhu claimed to be Lin Daoqian's daughter and arrived with the news that there was a change in Nanao Island, when the pirates were restless and gathered to discuss, Lu Guangwu and Zheng Ming first coerced Fu Xiong to have a calculating intention and a beautiful ambush, he was a little moved, but in his heart he still felt that Erlin had already passed his anger and was not as good as back then; But when he heard that Du Maode gathered the rest of Lin Afeng's troops together after Lin Afeng left, persuaded them to leave Lin Afeng, who had a strong sense of wait-and-see, and completely surrendered, and killed a stubborn pirate leader while talking and laughing, he finally couldn't help but glance sideways at Wang Fulin.

Obviously, he was suddenly transferred to Guangdong to patrol the imperial history, and the fledgling Wang Fulin was able to snare so many various characters under his command! And before it was said to be appeased, but now it has become a net, what Wang Fulin said before, is he still planning to implement it now? If you are someone else, with such a meritorious foundation, it is enough to be promoted, where are you willing to do more!

Although Yan Jifang didn't say it explicitly, Wang Fulin could guess a little bit of the other party's thoughts, so he immediately said: "Now that Lin Daoqian Lin Afeng has been caught, and the rest of the pirates are also willing to join, please also ask Yan Dashuai to immediately send ships and troops to the outer gate to escort people back first." However, it is easy for Erlin to kill or chop, but the placement of other people is a big trouble. Kill them all indiscriminately, which hurts the heavens and the peace. It seems easy to charge the army in Liaodong or Northwest China, but how many people are needed to escort them for thousands of miles? And let them go ashore for the people, but these people are used to wandering on the sea, and it will be a disaster after a long time. So, I stick to my previous view. ”

Knowing that what he was going to talk about next was a serious state affair, Yan Jifang hurriedly waved his hand to stop Wang Fulin, and instructed his own people outside to take care of the door with Wang Fulin's few remaining entourages, and then entered the house. When Wang Fulin and Zheng Ming sat down first, he said, "You still want to place them in Dongfan?" ”

"These rabble were caught off guard by Mr. Zheng and others, and I am afraid that they are also demoralized and need a place to rest. As far as I know, after Lin Daoqian, Lin Afeng and others revealed their whereabouts in Chaozhou Mansion and recruited a group of people, they hid in Penghu and Dongfan for a while. Both of these are overseas islands, although they are the land of our Ming Dynasty, they are vast and sparsely populated, and if they are ignored, they will only become the base camp of the pirates. What's more, I've said it before. With Dongban as a springboard, and then slowly plan to pass through the South Seas, it will be much more convenient. ”

Hearing this, Yan Jifang couldn't help frowning: "But you need to know that the imperial court has always taboo people on land to flee the islands as islanders. ”

"I know, I've been to Liaodong before. Because of the escape of Liaodong households to the island, Zhang Buyuan, the governor of Liaodong, and my uncle Wang Shilang also had a dispute. But Liaodong is different from Fujian and Guangdong. Liaodong is freezing cold, and there are many soldiers and civilians fleeing, if it is not strictly forbidden to flee to the island, Liaodong will have no soldiers. However, Guangdong and Fujian are few lands and many people, and there are many hidden households, and Yan Dashuai also has a number in his heart, and it is precisely because of the lack of life that some people leave their hometowns and cross the sea to Nanyang to make a living. Some simply became pirates. And the most important thing is that it is impossible to send troops to garrison those islands in Liaodong and set up liuguan to manage them, but Dongfan can! ”

"Who would go to that kind of wild and barren land?"

Regarding Yan Jifang's last question, Wang Fulin smiled and said, "How is Du Xianggong?" ”

"Huh?" This time it was Zheng Mingxian who exclaimed. But after thinking about it carefully, he had to admit that this was indeed a very good method - except for the hard flaw that Du Maode only had a reputation for showing off his talents. But I think most of the people who have made a name for themselves are scholars. He would never want to go to such an island, but Dumod could not hide his reputation as a pirate this time. Whether it is returning to the hometown or rewarding officials, it is more difficult to endure. But if you want to be an official in Dongfan, where no one else wants to go, this is absolutely feasible! However, how can Wang Fulin be sure that Du Maode will definitely agree?

Yan Jifang was stunned for a moment, and then finally smiled: "Nephew Wang Xian." You're really at a loss. Okay, I'll go and gather the ships and horses and bring the people back first! It's just that Ling Zhitai is now doing his best to level Yao. Did I tell you about this news, or did you go there yourself? ”

"I'll go in person, but I have to ask Yan Dashuai for this joint signing." Wang Fulin glanced at Zheng Mingxian as he spoke, and said with a smile, "Can Mr. Zheng come with me?" ”

Zheng Ming first remembered the last time he wanted to see Ling Yunyi, the governor of Liangguang, and was dissuaded by Wang Fulin when he dedicated his father's books, but now after a trip, Wang Fulin offered to take him to see Ling Yunyi, and he finally realized that compared with himself at that time, there was something more - after theory became practice, that kind of full confidence! He immediately smiled and said, "I don't dare to ask for it!" ”

And Yan Jifang heard Wang Fulin propose to sign again, thinking that he was just practicing the sailor this time, bluffing, compared to the people who were willing to take risks in front, it can be said that he didn't do anything, and then he thought about how he hated this kind of person who rubbed his credit the most when he was fighting, and he hesitated a little. But at this time, he saw Wang Fulin standing up, and he actually gave him a deep slap. Caught off guard, he quickly jumped up, hugged the other party, and said with a strange face: "If you have something to say, what is the virtuous nephew doing?" ”

"Yan Dashuai, I am encountering a lawsuit in this patrol of the imperial history, and now I should have thought about it behind closed doors in the Guangzhou City Procuratorate, but the golden cicada came to Nanao, if I didn't have your joint endorsement, how could I dare to see Ling Zhitai? As for what you are worried about, I might as well say that you are at least training sailors on the island of Nanao, but I am just sitting here and waiting, and when it comes to doing things, don't I do less than you? In other words, Yan Dashuai should not only think that this joint signature is a struggle for merit, but also think that this is also your responsibility for me. Mr. Zheng, don't you say? ”

Zheng Ming didn't expect Wang Fulin to go around and suddenly turn the topic to himself, he was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "That's right." However, in the past, I heard that when the southeast resisted the Japanese, the generals often struggled for success, but I didn't expect that now Yan Dashuai and Wang Xunji are so high-spirited, which is really admirable. ”

"If you want to talk about merit, you are not afraid of dangers, and you who go deep into the tiger's den are the first merit, followed by Yan Dashuai's treatment, as for me, just hang on to the end." Wang Fulin set the tone with one sentence, and did not give the two time to oppose at all. He smiled and broke free of Yan Jifang's hand holding him, went straight to the desk in front of the window, laid paper and polished ink, only typed the manuscript for a while, and immediately started writing.

Zheng Mingxian and Yan Jifang all knew that since Wang Fulin had promised to go and tell Ling Yunyi in person, then there was no need for a letter, and this was undoubtedly a note to the imperial court. Originally, they could bear not to look at it, but when Wang Fulin raised his head and asked them to come up with a smile to see if there were any changes or deletions, the two of them were not polite, and went up to watch Wang Fulin write from left to right.

When a piece of music sprinkled with more than 1,000 words was completed in one go, the level of reading and writing was limited to Yan Jifang, who could write and understand, only felt that he had everything, and he thought of what he didn't expect, Wang Fulin wrote. And Zheng Mingxian, who has a more solid foundation in history, secretly pondered another question.

Wang Fulin's text is not flashy and very simple, but it says everything in everything. It is said that there are not only the two bigwigs of the military department behind it, but Zhang Juzheng, the first assistant of the dynasty, also seems to be quite concerned about it.

Thinking about it, Zheng Mingxian didn't ask much after all, and after thinking about it again, there was no problem with this note, so Wang Fulin asked Yan Jifang to sign and seal it, and then it was his own, but between the first and last two names, there was a big gap. It seems to be keeping two names instead of one. The three people present knew that if Wang Fulin could convince Ling Yunyi, the governor of Liangguang, on this trip, the first position would be reserved for him. In all fairness, Yan Jifang didn't think that Ling Yunyi, the governor of Liangguang, would refuse to fall a credit from the sky on his head. After all, compared to the previous support for Wang Fulin's changes in Haojing, the political risk this time is much smaller.

As for the third position after Yan Jifang, Wang Fulin also directly pointed out to the two of them, which was reserved for Zhou Congwen, the deputy envoy of Haidao.

Although everything was properly arranged, Wang Fulin still waited until the fleet sent out by Nanao Island returned, and he was already able to see the fleet at the sentry tower and make sure that the flag was correct. There is a road guide issued by Yan Jifang, a dignified South Australian soldier, and Wang Fulin and Zheng Mingxian's group set off from Nanao Island to Zhaoqing Mansion on the way to Zhaoqing Mansion without encountering any obstacles.

However, after arriving in Zhaoqing Mansion, the situation was different. Lingyunyi has begun to steadily use troops against Luo Panshan, Guangdong General Soldier Zhang Yuanxun, Guangxi General Soldier Li Xi led more than 100,000 soldiers and horses under his command to all dispatch, divided into ten sentinels, iron wall encirclement, so out of Zhaoqing Mansion, the road is often encountered sentry posts blocking the road, if it is not for Yan Jifang personally issued the road guide, covered with the official envelope of the seal of the deputy chief soldier of Zhangchao, Wang Fulin may only be able to take out his own patrol press imperial history copper seal to pass.

Rao is like this, when he saw Ling Yunyi, it was already the fourth day that he had entered the territory of Lushui County. Finding that when Ling Yunyi saw him, the self-proclaimed special envoy of the South Australian Army, the expression on his face as if he had seen a ghost, Wang Fulin glanced at a middle-aged man who looked like a staff member on the side, and remembered what he had just mentioned in the personal army briefing, he knew that this was Song Yaowu, the prefect of Huizhou whom Ling Yunyi greatly appreciated and personally promoted after his arrival.

Therefore, after he saluted all the two of them in a serious manner, he said: "Ling Zhitai, fortunately, Lin Daoqian, Lin Afeng and other pirates, a total of eight hundred and four, have been captured and surrendered, and they have been all captured. ”

Song Yaowu looked up and saw that Ling Yunyi was stunned when he faced this deputy commander-in-chief envoy of Zhangchao, and he couldn't figure out the specific situation, but when he heard this, if he didn't understand it, it would be in vain for Ling Yunyi to cultivate.

He had already heard that Ling Yunyi was forced by the pressure of the political secretary, and Luo Panshan was about to use troops, so he didn't have the energy to support Wang Fulin, and planned to wait until the last moment to transfer Wang Fulin over to share a little of Ping Yao's credit, and solve the case by the way, so he sent someone to send a handwritten letter and also brought a message, which meant that Wang Fulin should not care about the constraints of the political secretary, but act cheaply. But a message is a message after all, I didn't expect Wang Fulin to really resist the pressure and run to Chaozhou Mansion, and it was done, this is incredible!

PS: Today, I will make a change, and save the manuscript for a certain training on 23-26 (to be continued.) )

PS: Speaking of code words for eleven years, there are no other occupational diseases, but the eye power has risen sharply! During college, I was only 200 and 275, and when I went to optometry a few days ago, I was already 300 and 338, and my naked eye vision was only 0.16 in both eyes, embarrassing...... I really miss the good eyes of 1.5 when I graduated from elementary school! One night a few days ago, I suddenly woke up in the middle of the night and felt inexplicably dizzy, and it lasted for seven or eight days, for no apparent reason, and it recovered in the past two days, which is really weird. I was embarrassed to think of a few days of training, and I participated in one the year before last, and I had to listen to three lectures a day in the morning and afternoon, each lecture lasted more than two hours+, which was completely supported by reading books on my mobile phone......
