Jia Xing, the commander of Ningbo Wei, was depressed when he met Zhang Chu, this Denglai general soldier did not pay attention to the rules at all, and he was bold, and dared to run around with his soldiers without the emperor's will, and he also crossed the border to the territory of Ningbo.

However, before coming to see Zhang Chu, Jia Xing had already observed in the direction of the dock, and the tens of thousands of troops who were landing on the shore dispelled his idea of fighting against Zhang Chu, and the high fighting spirit and sophisticated weapons and equipment displayed by the security army made his guards ashamed.

Just when Jia Xing was worried about how to get along with Zhang Chu, Zhang Chu lifted a big pie to his head and took the initiative to help the guard build a new ship. Due to the need to deal with the rising Houjin and the thieves in Shanxi, Shaanxi and other places, the guards in Zhejiang and other places now receive less and less food and salary from the imperial court, let alone update their weapons and equipment. After the imperial court recruited Zheng Zhilong, he thought that the threat from the sea had disappeared and everything was fine, and the warships of the naval division under the jurisdiction of Ningbo Wei had long been dilapidated. Jia Xing himself never thought that there would be a day when he would build a new ship, and he didn't believe that Zhang Chu would really give him money to build a ship, so he replied: "This shipbuilding needs a lot of money." ”

"Can you take me to see your sailor first, see what is missing, and then calculate how much it will cost." Zhang Chu actually thought that Zheng Zhilong would come back to him for revenge at some point, and he wanted to hurry up and get some people or things in Ningbo.

"Good, good. Here it goes. Jia Xing didn't expect Zhang Chu to really do what he said, maybe this matter will be true.

Zhang Chu got out of the tent and went to the port with Jia Xing, Jia Xing had already sent his own soldiers to call the generals of the sailor division over to greet him, and Zhang Chu was not polite and got on the sailor's warship with them. The generals of the sailors also found a ship in better condition, but it was difficult to hide the old age of the ship and the dishes on the faces of the sailors. This made Jia Xingdu feel gloomy.

"Does this guard have a shipyard?" Zhang Chu looked at the scene of the sailor and shook his head and asked. The generals of the water division didn't know what Zhang Chu was coming from and what he wanted to do, but they all looked at Jia Xing for fear that he would answer wrong.

"There are shipyards, but no new ships have been built for many years, and only some old ships have been repaired, and they are almost abandoned." Jia Xing had no choice but to tell the truth at this time.

"The craftsmen of the shipyard are still there, right?" Zhang Chu is most concerned about those who have many years of skill inheritance.

"The craftsmen are still here, they are all craftsmen, and they can't leave for generations." Jashing replied.

"As long as people are still there, there is a way. Let's go, I'll take you to my ship. Zhang Chu left the warship of the Ningbo Navy Division and took Jia Xing and the generals of the Navy Division to the "Caiyun".

Jia Xing and the generals of the naval division boarded this kind of sail warship for the first time, and were immediately shocked by its huge hull. They were even more amazed by the hundreds of guns on the ship, although they didn't understand why Zhang Chu had loaded so many guns on one boat, but they knew that every gun on it was very expensive, and this Zhang Chu was really rich.

Jia Xing was even more thinking that it was fortunate that he did not have a conflict with this chief soldier, the artillery on this ship was larger than the cannon at the head of the guard, and if Zhang Chu attacked the city, he would not be able to defend it with artillery bombardment.

"What do you think of my ship?" Zhang Chu said with a smug face.

"Yes, my lord's boat is definitely good." Jia Xing and the generals of the water division said sincerely.

"How about building a few of them for you like this?" Zhang Chu smiled and said very easily.

"If that's the case, we don't know how to thank you." The general of the water division hurriedly said.

"You don't have to thank me, you just need to train well and be brave in the face of pirates and enemies invading China's maritime borders." Zhang Chu said solemnly.

Zhang Chu took them around again, and then ordered everyone else to retreat, leaving only Jia Xing in the cabin, and asked about the shipyard and the sailor.

Zhang Chu couldn't help but sigh: "It seems that even though you Ningbo Wei is in a rich place in the south of the Yangtze River, it is also very difficult." ”

"Alas, there is no way, the food and salary given by the imperial court are getting less and less, and the land of the guard has also been encroached upon by the nearby Haoqiang. As a commander, I feel that life is sad, let alone the soldiers below. Jia Xing sighed and said.

"Well, then, how about I take in your soldiers and craftsmen and take care of their salaries?" Zhang Chu asked.

"Receive my soldiers?" Jia Xing was taken aback. How can this general soldier snatch all his soldiers away if he doesn't agree with each other.

"Yes, that's right, I'll tell you the truth, I formed a bond with Zheng Zhilong, the general soldier of Fujian, he led troops to beat me, and I beat him away, and he said that he would come back to retaliate. When the time comes, fight in Ningbo, whether you are on his side or on my side. If you don't intervene, I can give you some silver and leave, or go to Ningbo City to do business and make a fortune, and I can support your soldiers and craftsmen. If you use money to walk around, you might even be promoted. ”

Zhang Chu's words scared Jia Xing to death, how could these two general soldiers form a war in Shandong, and the other in Fujian. They're too bold. Where did they put the emperor in this way? After thinking about it, Jia Xing understood that Zhang Chu was a thief on land, and Zheng Zhilong was a pirate at sea, and these two people did not put the emperor in their eyes at all. Why is he so unlucky, involved in their fight. Zhang Chu even dared to fight Zheng Zhilong, who was a pirate of hundreds of thousands, and won by listening to him. The commander of his small guard post is not his opponent, Zhang Chu was able to discuss with him, and said that he would give him silver, which had already given him enough face. People want to be content, this broken guard station has long been out of oil and water, so it is better to listen to Zhang Chu's words and spend money to move around to become an official elsewhere.

Jia Xing had the idea of leaving, and the rest was easy. Zhang Chu led his soldiers into the Ningbo Guard, accompanied by Jia Xing, and the soldiers of the guard looked at this strange army with straight eyes, envious of their weapons and armor.

The senior officers of the guard were all summoned by Jia Xing to the command envoy's yamen, Jia Xing and Zhang Chu stood at the top and looked at these officers, and before Zhang Chu could speak, Jia Xing ran out under the pretext of uncomfortable neck.

Zhang Chu didn't pay attention to him, but announced to himself that now the security army would take over Ningbo Wei, and the security army would conduct special training for the soldiers in the guard, and then take a boat to the northeast to fight Houjin.

The generals below were dumbfounded all of a sudden, thinking that the war was far away from them, but they didn't expect that Zhang Chu suddenly appeared and said that he would use a boat to drag them to the northeast to die.

Zhang Chu saw the frightened looks of the generals one by one and said: "This is a great opportunity to make contributions to the country, and it is a shortcut to promotion and wealth." Of course, due to the special nature of this mission, we need people who are absolutely loyal and not afraid of death. If you don't want to go or force it, you can stay at home voluntarily during this time, but you can't divulge any information about the operation. The purpose of the operation and the training methods were classified, and it was a capital offense to snoop on anyone to leak secrets. ”

The soldiers faithfully understood why the commander had just run away in the first place. He got the letter, and it was not good for him to stay and not go. He wasn't there, so of course he didn't have to. Most of the generals didn't intend to do this unclear thing, Zhang Chu unceremoniously ordered them to go home, and only came to receive their salaries at the beginning of the month.

Then Zhang Chu announced the reorganization of the Ningbo Guard, and all the remaining personnel were placed under the leadership of the security army.

The soldiers of the guard post who heard the news were uneasy in their hearts, not knowing what fate awaited them. (To be continued.) )
