Looking at the promotion documents on the table, Huang Binqing was pleasantly surprised.

Deputy Commander-in-Chief! Although it is only an official promotion, it has already made Huang Binqing's heart bloom.

Thinking about him Huang Binqing, because his father died in the Japanese Rebellion, he was awarded the title of a thousand households, and it can be said that he was a thousand households as soon as he joined the army. However, the road to promotion was so difficult, and it took more than 20 years to generalize, guerrilla, and general.

Now, Hongguang Tianzi is on the throne, but I don't know how to know his name Huang Binqing, and he was actually promoted to deputy general, and then there is only one level, the general soldier, which is basically the peak of military generals.

The mountains and rivers are broken, the wind and clouds are changing, it is the time for heroes to use force, maybe they will soon become the chief soldier, and even the marquis is possible!

At this moment, the long-term depression was swept away, replaced by a belly full of pride.

What if you can fight? What if there are many warships under his command, it is not a small guerrilla, and he is crushed underneath by himself!

From the official of the Ministry of War who sent the paperwork, Huang Binqing learned that Ren Siqi was not promoted, which made his mood much better all of a sudden. Also, he has been in the army for more than 20 years, how can he be compared with a hairy boy!

"Oooo Huang Binqing was promoted to deputy general, and his subordinates were naturally promoted, and Huang Li had been promoted from general to capital, and he was still in charge of the Zhoushan Water Army.

"General!" Huang Li intervened and saluted Huang Binqing, his face full of worry.

"The coastal defense guerrilla general Ren wantonly sent people to the islands, and set up archers in the name of assisting in the defense of pirates, and basically all the islands have his people."

As Huang Binqing's confidant, Huang Li naturally knew that Ren Siqi was Zhoushan's confidant, and he constantly sent people to inquire about the news of Daishan, and knew a lot about Ren Siqi's measures.

Hearing this, Huang Binqing's brows furrowed suddenly, what does this kid surnamed Ren want to do? Does he want to bring all the islands under his rule and besiege his own Zhoushan Island?

But Huang Binqing couldn't say anything about this, after all, Ren Siqi was a coastal defense guerrilla, and it was his duty to prevent pirates.

"Those damn fishermen are unruly, and the kid surnamed Ren has fought with them again and again, killing many of them, I'm afraid it's not easy to be subdued by him, right?" Huang Binqing said that Huang Binqing couldn't understand the virtues of these fishermen, rude, unruly, rude, but fierce, and had all the essence of Diao Min.

"On the contrary, those islanders are very supportive of General Ren now!" He followed Ren Siqi to suppress bandits in Sijiao Mountain, and knew a lot about the strength of the Daishan Army, and even had a lot of respect for Ren Siqi.

"No way, how could those fishermen be so easily subdued?" Huang Binqing asked in surprise.

"General, it's true, I sent people to Jintang Island two days ago, General Ren stationed 20 people in Jintang, set up a battalion of archers, more than 500 young fishermen on the island, basically joined the archers.

According to the report of the people I dispatched, all the guerrilla generals of coastal defense not only provided them with food during training, but also subsidized one liter of food per person when they joined the archers, and they naturally enthusiastically participated in the training when they heard that they were given food for each of them. ”

"One liter per person, the kid surnamed Ren has sent people on so many islands, and there are 10,000 archers recruited, and you can get 10,000 liters for one training, that's hundreds of loads of grain, where did this surnamed Ren get such food?" Huang Binqing became more and more surprised.

"General Ren owns more than a dozen large ships, and conducts smuggling trade in private, and I heard that he made hundreds of thousands of taels of silver on a trip to Japan last year. That amount of money should be nothing to him.

Moreover, now Daishan Island produces a kind of canned fish, I heard that the market is very good, and it is exported to Hangzhou and Ningbo, which is in short supply, and it is also sold in our Zhoushan City. General Ren can not only trade by sea, but also have a canned food business, and his wealth in Daishan is very wide. ”

Regarding the details of the Daishan Army and Ren Siqi's measures, Huang Li explored very clearly.

Listening to Huang Li's words, Huang Binqing suddenly felt weak and powerless. Compared with Ren Siqi, he felt that he was simply weak. Ren Siqi can earn hundreds of thousands of taels of silver a year, while he can only eat that pitiful empty salary, and the balance is only a few thousand taels of silver in a year.

In these years, there are only soldiers with money, but the food and salary of the imperial court will never be sufficient, and Huang Binqing can only afford to raise less than 1,000 men and 100 soldiers as a general in Zhoushan. And Ren Siqi casually controlled tens of thousands of archers on dozens of islands, compared to it, what kind of taste did he have as a deputy general?

No, I also have to recruit people and conduct military training, I don't have the strength in my hands, what's the use of being a high official position? But money and food are needed for recruitment, where does the money and food come from?

Although Huang Binqing has accumulated tens of thousands of taels of silver over the years, he is reluctant to let him take it out to raise soldiers.

"You say, can we also go to the sea for trade?" I knew that Haimao made money, but Huang Binqing never thought about it. It's not that he doesn't want to make money, but that sea trade is the forbidden territory of those coastal clans, and outsiders are never allowed to get involved.

However, since Ren Siqi can do it, I, Huang Binqing, can naturally do it, but I didn't have the guts before. At this moment, Huang Binqing made up his mind, he also wanted to make money to raise soldiers.

"Of course we can too," Huang Li's eyes lit up, but then dimmed again, "General, but we don't have a big ship now, and we don't know the route, I'm afraid it's not easy to do!" "Not long ago, when the pirates attacked Zhoushan, the Zhoushan naval army was wiped out, all the ships were robbed by the pirates, and later burned down by Ren Siqi.

This, this, what to do! Huang Binqing had the heart to cheer up, but he couldn't come up with the idea of making money.

"General, can we ask General Ren for help? Ask him to help us trade at sea. Huang Li cautiously put forward his own suggestion, because he really didn't want Zhoushan to have trouble with Daishan again.

Let me bow to the surname Ren! Don't even think about it. Huang Binqing blurted out that he was about to say something of refusal, but he couldn't hold back when the words came to his mouth.

yes, what about the kid who doesn't ask for the surname Ren? I don't have a way to make money.

"General, look, do you want Miss to go to Daishan and meet General Ren." Carefully observing Huang Binqing's face, Huang Li put forward his own suggestions.

In Huang Li's eyes, Huang Fengwu was like his sister-in-law, but these days, he saw that the smile on Huang Fengwu's face was getting less and less, which made Huang Li very heartbroken.

Huang Li naturally understood Huang Fengwu's thoughts, in his opinion, Huang Fengwu and Ren Siqi were a match made in heaven, and they couldn't be more compatible. (To be continued.) )
