More than 30 sailing ships sailed on the sea, the blue sailors on the top of the mast recognized the flag and hunted and fluttered, the soldiers of the Wendeng battalion took their own warships, and Chen Xin invested a total of 1,000 headquarters, and he regarded this operation as an amphibious combat exercise.

There are three No. 2 Fu ships in the fleet, each ship has a bureau of soldiers, and a total of four foot boats on both sides, because there are islands in Dongjiang Town along the way to replenish fresh water, so the weight of fresh water they carry is reduced, and it also reflects the importance of Dongjiang Town, if there are no coastal strongholds, there will be less rest for warships and soldiers, and the combat state will be much worse, if it is a large-scale operation, these islands can be used as a place for supplies and soldiers.

After Shen Shikui and others exterminated Liu Xingzhi, they purged the rebellious party on the island while sending elite troops to chase and kill the rebellious soldiers who escaped ashore, and Huanglong did not report the matter to Wendeng Prefecture until April 15.

The Dongjiang soldiers found the Jiannu who received them near Tieshan, only more than 200 people, led by Tong San, not Tong Yangxing, who was the first to report, and after they learned that Liu Xingzhi was dead, they did not entangle with the Dongjiang soldiers and retreated in a hurry.

Sun Yuanhua attached great importance to the turmoil on Phi Dao, which also fell under his jurisdiction, and the Yellow Dragon was personally promoted by him, and any leaks would be counted on his head. He believed that there was still a crisis near Phi Dao, and it was very likely that Houjin would send a large army to attack, so he quickly sent a sailor to the mouth According to the intelligence from Dengzhou, the ships sent by the Dengzhou division were mainly sand boats and bird boats, and there were a small number of No. 2 fortune boats, and the bird boats were equipped with Hongyi cannons in the bow of the boats.

Sun Yuanhua originally did not send troops from the Anliu Wendeng battalion, but Chen Xin hoped to use this opportunity to strengthen his influence on the Dongjiang River, and he got the opportunity after several fights, and Lü Zhi even went out in person and set off with the Wendeng camp to build a slave without a sailor, as long as he did not get off the boat, there would be no danger, it was an opportunity to earn a watch, and he also boarded Chen Xin's flagship, and the soldiers on the ship were all Wendeng battalions, and the safety was more guaranteed. Because Sun Yuanhua didn't want them to go to Phi Island at first, so they delayed for some time, and when they went to sea, it was already May 16, and the Dengzhou Water Camp had already set off, and the only good news was that there was Lu Zhi with him, and he had to get some boats, so he loaded a thousand people from the headquarters.

"Lord Supervisor, the sea is dangerous, the Lord is the heart of the country, all the soldiers have been remembered, and when they arrive at Zhangzi Island, they can stay on the island and wait for me to wait for good news."

Chen Xin patted his ass on the bow of the boat, and looked at Lu Zhi's expression, Lu Zhi's trip to Phi Island was mainly to earn a watch, and perhaps he also wanted to make a fortune.

"General Chen's words are widespread, our family is deeply favored by the emperor, what is the danger of the storm, this time, our family has to see with our own eyes how General Chen's tiger power can make Jiannu fearful." Lu Zhi stood at the bow of the boat and was full of spirits, he was from Hejian Mansion, and the strangest thing about Chen Xin was that he had been in high spirits after he went to sea without seasickness.

The guards were all behind at a distance, Chen Xinda patted for a while, this time Sun Yuanhua didn't go by himself, and he didn't replenish gunpowder and other materials to the Wendeng camp, Chen Xin knew that Sun Yuanhua had begun to be affected by the Beijing Division, so this prison army was even more important, Lu Zhi was flattering all the way until he was on the boat, and Lu Zhi didn't want to be divided into military merits, so he went on the road alone with the Wendeng camp, and did not walk with the Dengzhou Naval Division.

"General Chen, now that the Holy Son of Heaven is in a wide position, those of us who are courtiers must do our best, this time we go to Phi Island, not only to stabilize the shape of the Dongjiang River, but also to investigate the private trade of the Dongjiang River."

Chen Xin listened to Lu Zhi's instructions with a respectful expression, and Lu Zhi did not have the happy appearance in front of Sun Yuanhua at this time, his complexion was calm, and his eyes were bright.

"Since the establishment of the Dongjiang town, smuggling has never stopped, our family came to Phi Island this time, but also to see for themselves what the scene is on this island, Sun said that the people on Phi Island are poor and have little output, there is no smuggling, our family still thinks that seeing is believing.

Chen Xin looked at Lu Zhi a few times, knowing that this person is also a scheming person, he actually wants to participate in the smuggling of Phi Dao, he was blocked by Huang Long and others before, this time it is actually an opportunity for him, so he wants to use a relatively independent Wendeng camp, at present, for Chen Xin, Sun Yuanhua is becoming more and more unreliable, Lu Zhi is undoubtedly an object to rely on, as a close minister of the emperor and a supervisor of Dengzhou, he can give himself a lot of support, so winning Lu Zhi's support in Dengzhou is the strategy set by Chen Xin and Song Wenxian.

Chen Xin said respectfully: "The Lord of the Prison Army, but there is a dispatch, and the subordinates all obey it. ”

Lu Zhi turned his head to look at Chen Xin and said sharply: "Lord Chen is really the backbone of the country, this Phi Dao rebellion, in the opinion of Lord Chen, will Jiannu take the opportunity to come." ”

"Xiaguan thinks that at least eighty percent will come, Dongjiang is lonely for me Daming, but Jiannu is a thorn in the back, although it is weak at the moment, but as long as Dongjiang Town is there, North Korea has always relied on, there are these islands, Denglai may increase troops at any time to strengthen Dongjiang Town, Jiannu will not be able to go all out to look westward, with the talent of the slave chief, must always think about eliminating the threat of Dongjiang Town, now is undoubtedly the best time."

Lu Zhi didn't know how to go into battle to fight, but he had also read a few military books and understood some theories, otherwise he would not have been appointed as the eunuch of the Nine Gates of Admiral when he was in his own right, he smiled and said: "If you really want to come, don't let the soldiers on Phi Island know that we have so many soldiers, then the island is afraid that there are groups of spies, let's not stop more on the road, just replenish the water on Zhangzi Island once." ”

Chen Xin flattered: "My lord is wise, let's give Jiannu a surprise." ”

On 28 May, Phi Dao was in sight, and the Wendeng Battalion Naval Division did not dock directly at the port of Phi Dao, but stopped at Yamato Island in the south, Chen Xin first sent soldiers from two bureaus to land and control the ships on the island, and then the 1,000th headquarters went ashore one after another, and more than 20 warships were on guard around it, and no other ships were allowed to approach.

Then Lu Zhi took a lucky boat to Phi Island, accompanied by his most confidants, to prevent leakage of news, Huang Long, Zhang Zhuo and others were all wholeheartedly received, for fear of offending the prison lord, Chen Xin did not go to the island, but sent the accompanying intelligence bureau personnel, found Zhang Dong and others, and took Zhang Dong to Yamato Island.

"My lord, the situation on Phi Island is more complicated than I first knew." Zhang Dong, who had just boarded the ship, reported to Chen Xin quietly and a little excitedly, and there was also the leader of the trading company who came with him, and Chen Xin had Lu Chuanzong and Liu Pojun who led the troops, Liu Pojun recruited people to serve them tea, and then let Zhang Dong continue to speak.

"There were more than 1,000 rebels that night, more than 800 Zhenyi, and finally 300 people escaped across the sea, and his subordinates learned from Shang Keyi and others that Liu Xingzhi and Huang Taiji's correspondence reached more than 20 seals Between July and August last year, Liu Xingzhi had completed the oath with Huang Taiji, exchanged oath documents with each other, and claimed to be a vassal country."

Chen Xin frowned when he heard this, Liu Xingzhi was able to exchange oaths with Huang Taiji, and the conditions must have been determined after many round-trip negotiations, and Dengzhou actually did not receive any news, which shows how badly Phi Dao was infiltrated by Houjin.

"What conditions did Huang Taiji give him?"

"Huang Taiji gave him extremely generous conditions, and promised to let Liu Xingzhi's subordinates choose a place to live at will, if they are unwilling to go ashore, they can be treated as a vassal country, as long as Houjin provides assistance to the sailors when they send troops. If they are willing to return to Houjin, then the official residence is the original position, the camp remains unchanged, and it belongs to the Huang Taiji and Huang Huang, and will not let Dai Shan take revenge on their brothers, and let them reunite with their relatives, Huang Taiji even sent Liu Xingzhi's wife to Phi Dao. ”

Lu Chuanzong, who was listening, scolded: "This Phi Island is Huang Taiji's huā garden, and even the daughter-in-law has sent it over, what does this Huanglong eat." ”

Zhang Dong said calmly: "Liu Xingzhi is treacherous, when he went to pick up his wife last year, in order to explain why he landed on the shore, he also reported to Dengzhou that he had killed more than 30 Jiannu, and Zhang Zhuo, Liang Jun and others were included in the report. ”

Chen Xin said with a smile: "It can be seen that Liu Xingzhi is also not a general, and when he adds Shangguan's henchmen when he reports the victory, he will have a much greater grasp, and we will learn a little more in the future." ”

Zhang Dong bowed his head and said: "What the two said is that Liu Xingzhi is treacherous, Huang Taiji is even more treacherous, he just returned to Liaodong last year, and sent a letter to Chen Jisheng, persuading Chen Jisheng to surrender, attaching a letter from Liu Xingxian to Liu Xingzhi, and also sent a letter to Li Youliang, Kashima Lin guerrilla, Guangludao guerrilla Mao Youhou and others on Dazhangzi Island, and asked Chen Jisheng to hand it over, so as to separate Chen Jisheng and the generals of the Dongjiang River, and later Liu Xingzhi killed Chen Jisheng in chaos, and Huang Taiji's letter can be said to be an important reason. ”

Lu Chuanzong was a little dumbfounded and said: "Such lame; The discord meter really works. ”

Chen Xin shook his head and smiled: "Crappy is only lame, but it is enough for Chen Jisheng and Liu Xingzhi, who were originally hostile to each other, Liu Xingzuo's brothers designed a shocking plan back then, teasing Huang Taiji in the palm of their hands, and came to Dongjiang Town after all the hardships, and then Huang Taiji used a lame divisive plan, relying on these brothers to make Dongjiang fall apart, it was really providential." ”

Zhang Dong continued: "Liu Xingzhi's rebellion this time should have two plans, the shape shì is good, he will occupy the Dongjiang River and claim the king, treat the Houjin with the courtesy of the country, if the shape is not good, he will take refuge in the Houjin and become the servant of the emperor Taiji." But according to the recent investigation of his subordinates, Liu Xingzhi's original idea was to make profits between Houjin and Daming, and did not want to rebel and drive himself to a dead end. ”

Liu Pojun heard that the small island was a small island, but several forces were fighting so fiercely, Liu Pojun asked: "Is there no power left of the Liu Xingzhi brothers?" ”

"Liu Xingzhi has a total of seven brothers, in addition to Liu Xingzuo is dead, there is still Liu Xingxian captured in the battle of his own si, this time Liu Xingzhi was in chaos, Liu Xingji and the other three did not conspire with him, but cooperated with Huanglong to kill Liu Xingzhi and Zhenyi."

Lu Chuanzong and Liu Pojun both sighed when they heard it, Chen Xin nodded and said to Zhang Dong: "The six relatives don't recognize it, and they are not fuel-efficient lamps, let's talk about the current situation on Phi Dao." ”

"There are two factions left on Phi Island, one is Shen Shikui, the other is Huanglong, there is another person on Huanglong's side, that is, Zhang Shou, a zanhua guerrilla who came to Wendeng last time, this person has a hand in humanities and martial arts, Huanglong listens to him, and he is currently speaking very weightily on the island, and is called 'false guard' by the island soldiers. ”

Chen Xin was deeply impressed by this Catholic who was proficient in Hongyi cannons, and sighed: "It turned out to be him, except for these factions on the island, is there any movement on the Jiannu side?" ”

"There is no more news from Jiannu's side for the time being, but a North Korean official in Phi Dao said that Houjin's Yingordai is in the Xuanchuan area, and he asked North Korea to release the captured Liu Xingzhi deserter."

"Xuanchuan." Chen Xin looked at the map and asked the person from the trading company, "Does the trading company have any Korean speakers?" ，、

The leader of the trading company was very nervous in front of Chen Xin, and stammered: "No, no, but I can find it, find an interpreter, this and this." ”

Zhang Dong helped him and said: "All the generals on the island who have smuggled with Houjin dare not do it in the open, and they have to fake their hands to transit North Korea, so there are interpreters on the island, and North Korea also has officials stationed on the island to take care of matters related to the Dongjiang River." ”

Chen Xin smiled and said, "Then find an interpreter first." ”
