After a few days of busyness, things were a little clueless, and Zhao Lie decided to take office in the jurisdiction as soon as possible. Zhao Haiming did his best to mobilize the resources at hand and give Zhao Lie the greatest support. Zhao Qin's didn't have much reaction this time, after all, it was his son who went to take office, and he was really happy to be appointed to the real job of thousands of households at a young age, but Zhao Qin, who followed Zhao Haiming's rich experience, told Zhao Lie about officialdom matters, and in addition, Wang Yue and Juan'er accompanied him to take care of Zhao Lie's life, this matter was decided, and Zhao Lie had to accept it.

Early this morning, Zhao Lie personally came to Mr. Li's mansion to pick up Li Mingyu on the boat, only to see Mr. Li in civilian clothes come out first, followed by a young lady, not very old, only fourteen or fifteen years old, and two maids followed, the maid's age is about the same age as the young lady, and then a middle-aged housekeeper, four guards, Mrs. Li also came out, after greeting each other, Zhao Lie understood that this was Mr. Li and his youngest daughter Li Lin went out together, Mrs. Li was very worried, and told many parties, and asked Zhao Lie to take care of it. Zhao Lie was full of promises. Mr. Li responded to his wife's chatter with a smile, and it could be seen that the husband and wife were very affectionate.

Came to the dock to board the two sentinel boats, ferried to the place where Fuhai docked, a group of people got on the boat on a soft ladder, Li Lin was not afraid, and got on the boat by himself, and the maid instead fought and fought Keke's before getting on the boat under the tugging of the guards, and then, Zhao Lie and others boarded the ship one after another, and Fuhai anchored and sailed eastward.

After some tossing, it was already the beginning of the ship's departure, and Zhao Lie arranged for Mr. Li's family to live in his cabin, and he went to the lower deck to deal with it for two or three days.

In the afternoon, Zhao Lie led Du Li, Wang Quan, Huang Han and others to introduce the situation of general affairs to Mr. Li.

Arriving at Dashanzi Island, three horns sounded on the Fuhai. When Zhao Lie boarded the dock, Steward Li, Zhang Gusheng, seven captains and the leaders of each ship, as well as many soldiers on the shore, lined up at the dock, including the soldiers on the surrounding boats were also crowded on the side of the boat to wait, seeing Zhao Lie, a group of people stood still, their right hands clenched into fists to cover their chests, "I've seen my lord." ”

"No courtesy." Zhao Lie looked at Zhang Gusheng approvingly, knowing that it was Zhang Gusheng's teaching. The crew is no more free and loose than the military households on land, and if it were not for the triumphant return this time, the reward was issued, and the military heart was collected, the training would not have been so smooth.

"In the next few days, the fleet will set off hunting," Zhao Lie slowly looked at everyone, only to see that everyone showed happy expressions, Zhao Lie also grinned, Mr. Li was very suspicious, he had been walking in the sailor for a long time, when did the soldiers go out to fight so happy, but it was the norm to be happy on the return trip, what is the situation.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the silver taels we brought back last time have become food and clothing in the hands of the victims, so that they can continue to live," Zhao Lie bowed his hand and saluted, "Here, I thank you on behalf of all the victims." ”

Everyone hurriedly returned the salute at a loss, and they didn't dare to do so.

"You deserve it, you have all seen the miserable situation of the Liao people, these tens of thousands of taels of silver bring them hope for life, you are the Buddha of these people." Zhao Lie's calculations were exhausted, he never wanted this fleet to become a real bandit, but an army that knew why it was acting.

The crowd knelt down excitedly on the ground.

"Please get up, please get up." Zhao Lie helped them up one by one, and comforted them with kind words. "Gentlemen, why do I call you gentlemen, because you are not afraid of the wind and waves, stay away from your wife and children to fight for the country, and bravely kill the enemy for the people of the Ming Dynasty, the gentleman of this country, the pillar of the country." I saw a group of people unconsciously straighten their waists, looking at Zhao Lie with blazing eyes, and said pitiful, the soldiers who did fight for the country did not have the slightest status in the Ming Dynasty. Today, some people or bosses call them gentlemen, they are gentlemen, and they are really enthusiastic.

"Gentlemen, North Korea, colluded with Jiannu, and rebelled against the Ming Dynasty. The Wa Kingdom, fighting with my Ming Dynasty in Korea, caused the Ming Dynasty to suffer heavy losses, and was the mortal enemy of the Ming Dynasty. Every time you strike at the enemy, you are fighting for the Ming Dynasty, you are bringing wealth and hope to the people of the Ming Dynasty, and you are bringing death and fear to the enemy. "Zhao Lie has long wanted to give a good training, but the reward has not been lowered, and what you said when the military heart has not returned is nonsense, and the soldiers will not go to their hearts, this time, the fleet is going to set off again, and the reward has been issued, this is the right time." Although, because of some pedantic literati in the DPRK and China, I can't explicitly commend you, I can only make sure that you and your family don't have to worry about the future, everyone, you have been wronged. Zhao Lie gave another deep salute.

The captains and soldiers hurriedly returned the salute, and the scene was panicked.

"However, if you have an accident, enter the Martyrs' Shrine behind you and enjoy the incense forever." Zhao Lie added another fire. "Ladies and gentlemen, we firmly believe that the Ming Dynasty will win."

For a time, the sound of the Ming Dynasty's victory resounded throughout the island.

Mr. Li looked around, his eyes sometimes flickering, sometimes hesitant, and he was silent.

"Captains, prepare your baggage in two days and set off."

"Yes, my lord," all directions responded in unison.

The soldiers excitedly talked about leaving.

Zhao Lie looked at the surrounding atmosphere with satisfaction and nodded.

After settling Mr. Li's family, Zhao Lie brought a group of captains to discuss which ships to go on the expedition, and as a result, the captains quarreled and wanted to go on the expedition, joking, going on the expedition means a silver reward, as a captain, he was embarrassed to return to the ship without earning the opportunity to go on the expedition, of course, no one wanted to give up. In the end, Zhao Lie had no choice but to make a decision, letting the sea dogs and Cangyu, who did not go out last time, go on the expedition, the sea dragon and Canglong stayed behind, the captured No. 2 Fu boat newly named Fusong went on the expedition, and the smaller one was named the sea lion to stay.

In this regard, the issue of personnel for the constantly plundered sea ships was discussed, and Zhao Lie decided to learn from the German army after World War I, with one horse and two horses, otherwise how the German army built up millions of troops and swept across the European continent during World War II. Therefore, a ship can be equipped with two captains, and the first mate system has also been determined, which is to replace the captain in an emergency, which is also a double match, a boatswain is a double match, and the head of each soldier group is a double match, and even the cook is a double match, after all, the cook on the ship and the fire on land, preservation, water storage, etc. are completely different things, and the result is that those who can be matched are double-matched, and the result is that there are dozens of big and small leaders in the fleet, and they are all happy. Since then, Zhao Lie's fleet has become a common practice.

In the end, Zhao Lie formulated Li Hu as the chief general and Zhang Gusheng as the deputy general, so that they could take two warships, and if one had an accident, the other could also command the fleet.

The next day, Zhao Lie sent Huang Han away, and the Sea Dragon got this errand that made the sea lion and Canglong extremely jealous, and went down to Yangzhou, Yangzhou's prosperity and wealth are famous all over the world, and it was an opportunity to visit Yangzhou, which was an eye-opening opportunity for these military households who had never seen the world.

Zhao Lie inspected the construction of the island again and expressed satisfaction with the progress, before the arrival of winter, personnel can enter the house, piers can also be used, and a complete defense system can be formed on the island.

In the evening, the whole island had a dinner party, one was to commend the engineering personnel, and the other was to see off the fleet.

In the middle of the third day, Zhao Lie led all the captains to worship the sea god at the pier, and then stood on the pier and watched the fleet slowly set off. Zhao Lie had been watching the fleet disappear before returning, and now he could only pray for the fleet's good luck. Because the fleet is the foundation of all Zhao Lie's blueprints, there is no substitute. He didn't dare to think that the fleet had made a mistake, although it was difficult for someone in East Asia to eat this fleet in one bite, but the most terrible thing at sea was not the enemy, but God, in this era, there are no satellites to monitor the earth's weather changes, you don't know which cloud is raining what, you can only rely on luck.
