Tang Ming didn't stay at home for long, Ryukyu Island has now entered a state of preparation, and it may be attacked by Zhu Di's army at any time. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info perched next to a big tiger that eats people and doesn't spit out bones, and Tang Ming can't settle down when he says anything. In order to ensure that he could continue to live on Ryukyu Island, he had to at least double the size of his army before Zheng He returned to the Ming Dynasty.

Fortunately, there are still some ships reserved on Jeju Island, and nearly a hundred warships can be sent in another month, although this hundred ships are not worth mentioning for Tang Ming now, but it is better than nothing. The loss of the sharpshooter battalion had already made Gouzi and Li Dazhui discuss recovery, and Tang Ming wanted to more than double his army in a short period of time, which was obviously a difficult challenge.

The territory is already small, the population is even smaller, and the people who can be used are already performing their own duties, and there is really no way to draw people from other places into the army. For this reason, Tang Ming hit the idea of Luzon and the ancient dynasties, and the first target was the closest Luzon country.

Yesterday, Fei Xin had already arranged a fleet for Tang Ming, and after getting on the ship, he specially asked Fei Xin if he had any news about Li Ba and Zhu Yong. Although these two people don't have to worry too much about Tang Ming, with Zhu Yong's old man here, they will definitely not let the two of them have an accident, but they haven't seen the two come back after a few days, and Tang Ming has to start worrying.

Fei Xin also looked puzzled, shook his head and said: "The person sent out to inquire about the news has not come back yet, but the old housekeeper has sent someone to deliver the news, saying that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is very sad now, and your Gaochun Village has now been occupied by Zhu Gaoxi." Most of the servants have migrated because they can't accept his harsh taxes, and they have already reached out to the old butler to ask about the whereabouts of the Hou Ye, hoping to continue to follow you. ”

Tang Ming was still very surprised by this, after all, he was listed as a rebel, but he didn't expect these farmers to be willing to follow him in such a situation. How did he know that these peasants were now completely spoiled by him, or more appropriately, captured by Tang Ming's preferential treatment.

The people who work in his fiefdoms or under him have long been accustomed to such a good life, and who wants to go back to the hard life of the past. It's easy to get rich from thrift, but it's even more difficult to get rich from thrift, so it's not surprising that the servants would leave Zhu Gaoxi, who still uses the system that the Ming Dynasty currently uses.

At the time, Tang Ming didn't think much about it, and asked Fei Xin to contact the people of the maritime trading firm, use their cargo ships to pull people to the open sea, and then transfer them to Ryukyu Island. Fei Xin nodded and agreed, and after sending Tang Ming away, he also started this matter immediately, what Ryukyu Island lacks most now is people, so Tang Ming and they will not refuse.

On the border of Yunnan, Zhu Yong and Li Ba brought hundreds of subordinates who were formed when they were pirates before, and the military power of the 300,000-strong army had already been taken back by Zhu Di. And Zhu Yong left the army before Zhu Di's holy decree arrived, and returned to the territory of the Yue country with Li Ba and his men.

After Zhu Neng saw what happened to Tang Ming, he sent someone to inform Zhu Yong early, as for the reason why they wanted them to leave secretly and not return to Daming, Zhu Neng did not say much for his son. I only told him that Tang Ming was in some trouble here, and they had to take shelter for a while.

Zhu Yong has always been obedient to his father, so he implemented it as soon as he received the news, and the results proved that his decision was right. As soon as they walked behind, a group of officials specially sent by the emperor came, and after taking over the 300,000 army, they hurried to Nanjing with them.

Walking out of the deep mountains and old forests, Zhu Yong and his party could finally take a good rest, and after ordering the camp, the two got together. Li Ba directly took off his clothes and armor and threw it aside, squinted his eyes and said: "What do you mean by your old man, let's stop caring about the 300,000 army, but why don't we go back to Nanjing, and go back to this damn primeval jungle again, tell me what the reason is, otherwise it is very likely that I will not be able to help but beat you." ”

The fear scar on Zhu Yong's face twitched slightly, licked his lips and said, "Just because you still want to beat me, Lao Tzu lets you have one hand, you may not be able to beat me!" ”

Li Ba pursed his lips, his face full of disdain, but now that he has walked the mountain road for nearly a month, he is too lazy to fight with Zhu Yong for any words. sat down in the shade of a shady tree, and said seriously: "Don't bypass the topic for Lao Tzu, let's talk about why, is something wrong with Master Hou?" ”

Seeing that Li Ba's expression was very serious, Zhu Yong also put away his jokes, frowned and said: "I don't know what the specific thing is, but it must be small if it happened so suddenly and urgently, although my old man didn't say what happened, but he has never made a fuss, I think Hou Ye must be in big trouble this time!" ”

Li Ba was stunned, suddenly stood up and picked up his armor and put it on his body, while humming: "Then we are still resting here!" Hurry back and help. ”

Zhu Yong waved his hand and said, "Come on, it's been a month since the incident happened, and you still think it's useless to rush back in a hurry." Now we should get everyone in good spirits and go to Jeju Island to see what is going on before making plans. ”

Li Ba's movements hesitated, took off the clothes and armor he had just put on, collapsed on the grass again, and said lazily: "I finally heard your kid say a human thing, Hou Ye is now a celebrity in front of the emperor, even if something big happens, it will definitely not endanger his life, and if there is not your old man and His Royal Highness the Prince, the sky will not be able to hit our Hou Ye." It's that I, Li Ba, are worrying about it, with the cleverness of our Hou Ye, I think that no one in Daming can lower him now. ”

Zhu Yong very much agreed with Li Ba's remarks just now, their blind trust in Tang Ming had reached a deep-rooted depth, but they didn't know that Tang Ming had walked before the ghost gate, if Tang Ming knew that these two guys saw him like this, he really didn't know whether to be happy or sad.

The two did not stay at the edge of the jungle for long, but went directly to Jimyeong City, and if they wanted to get to Jeju Island from the sea, they now had to rely on the ships of the Yue Kingdom. And their original pirate ships had already been brought back to Jeju Island by Tang Ming, for which Zhu Yong and Li Ba also complained about Tang Ming for a while, saying that this was the family foundation they had built on the sea with great difficulty, but they were confiscated by Tang Ming's fluttering words, and the two of them were disgusted by this.
