Fang Zheng incarnated as a celebrant eunuch, has always been diligent, deeply trusted by Chongzhen, this time as an envoy to Denglai, accompanied by Xiao Xianzhong, a staff member of the Ministry of War. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

As the celebrities around Chongzhen went to Denglai to issue the decree, Chen Yingyuan and Zhang Guoyuan both welcomed Dengzhou ten miles to greet them, but now they are in the opposition.

After the two sides met, Chen Yingyuan was of course cautious to greet him, but Zhang Guoyuan was also a low-profile courtesy.

Although the two of them had the same status and had their own duties when they were by Banzai's side, but now Fang Zhenghua is by the side of the Son of Heaven, and Zhang Guoyuan is in the opposition, this difference is big, that is to say, Fang Zhenghua can hand over the words by the side of the Son of Heaven, and Zhang Guoyuan is beyond the reach of the whip, so there is a big difference between one dynasty and one field, and in the DPRK, he can deliver a message to the Son of Heaven, of course, he is more favored.

Chen Yingyuan and Zhang Guoyuan brought their party into the governor's mansion to set up a banquet to wash the dust, and at the same time sent people to Shidao to tell Zhao Lie, the protagonist, to come to receive the order.

However, the news from Shidao is that Lord Zhao Lie Zhao has set off for Dongjiang Lushun to inspect the defense, and I am afraid that it will take half a month to return.

This made Chen Yingyuan extremely embarrassed, Fang Zhenghua and Zhang Guoyuan were extremely angry, not to mention anything else, Chen Yingyuan was the governor of Denglai, but Zhao Lie's top boss, but Zhao Lie left the Denglai Governance Office without reporting to Chen Yingyuan.

There are too many contents in this, one is that Chen Yingyuan lost control of the situation, and the other is that Zhao Lie's domineering can be seen.

Chen Yingyuan is just embarrassed, he is now happy to be able to leave his post and return to his hometown, somewhat decent, but no one is willing to take over this hot potato, let alone anything else, Chen Yingyuan still has to stay up in the position of governor of Denglai.

"What kind of inspection Lushun and Dongjiang River, I'm afraid I went to Jeju."

Zhang Guoyuan couldn't help but scold.

Now that Zhao Lie has Jeju and Ezo further north, he has gone crazy in Jingshi, and he doesn't know where it came from, anyway, he has a nose and eyes.

Of course, it is also extremely reasonable, otherwise where did the Zhao family come out of a large amount of silver and a large share of warships, how could they have the strength to go east to conquer the Japanese people, this rumor at least pointed out the source, it turned out that the Zhao family had its own territory overseas.

Of course, this is all rumor, and no one has real evidence, but this no longer needs real evidence, and the mysterious rise of the Zhao family has already been explained.

Now this rumor has spread to Shandong and Denglai, and it is also spreading everywhere among the people.

But the Zhao family was still silent, as if they hadn't heard of it.

Fang Zhenghua's face was also sinking like water, and he felt that this trip was likely to return empty-handed, this Zhao Lie had no fear of the imperial court, so it was impossible for Zhao Lie to send troops to quell the rebellion.

Fang Zhenghua and others waited helplessly in Dengzhou, an angel waited in Denglai for twenty days, and finally waited for the news of Zhao Lie's return to Shidao, it is said that the team returned to Shidao together, and many people were damaged, which made Fang Zhenghua, Chen Yingyuan, and Zhang Guoyuan extremely puzzled, could it be that Zhao Lie suffered a big loss in Lushun.

On the dock of Shidao, Zhao Haiming and his wife, Alexandra, Zhao Meng, Tang Xianwen and others have been waiting for a long time.

The reason why they came to the dock early to greet them was because Zhao Lie informed them that Zhao Lie would not be the last to get off the ship this time, but would disembark the next day.

Therefore, the Zhao family came here early the next morning to greet them, leaving only Zhao Meng's wife, Li Lin and Zhao E to take care of the four leather monkeys at home.

The huge body of the Di Qing leaned against the Shidao Wharf, and Zhao Lie's guards disembarked first, set up a guard formation, and guarded all the places more than a hundred steps down the gangway.

Zhao Lie stepped down the gangway under the entourage of Zhao Da and Yu Dabao.

Zhao Qin and Alexandra smiled and stepped forward, seeing their son and husband return was enough for them.

Zhao Qin took a good look at his son, asked Zhao Feng about the situation again, and knew that Zhao Feng was also safe and sound, so this time he put down all his thoughts and handed over Zhao Lie to Alexandra.

Alexandra stepped forward and hugged Zhao Lie tightly, she knew the difficulty of this trip, after all, she also sailed in the sea in her early years before arriving in Macau, the moodiness of the sea was really unpredictable, and her heart finally settled down when she saw her husband return safely.

Zhao Haiming noticed something, and he saw that Zhao Lie's smile was a little far-fetched.

"Lie'er, what's the matter, this time it's a huge loss." He asked.

Zhao Lie nodded with a wry smile.

In this naval battle of Xiaoliuqiu, thousands of casualties were inflicted, and dozens of warships were damaged, which can be described as the largest battle loss since the formation of the naval division of the Broken Army.

"Thousands of soldiers and soldiers have been killed and wounded, and they are all good at breaking the army and sailors." Zhao Lie looked at the two Galen merchant ships behind them, these two warships were loaded with the clothes of these fallen sailors, as for the corpses, they could only return to the sea, this was the fate of the sailors, and they could only return to their hometowns.

Zhao Haiming, Zhao Meng, Zhao Qin, and Alexandra were speechless for a while, they are not ignorant people, but they can be said to have a general understanding of the combat power of the Broken Army's naval division, and it is unimaginable that so many people have been lost according to the combat strength of the Broken Army.

At this time, a large number of soldiers of the Broken Army poured into the docks, all of them holding a wooden box or a cloth bag in their hands.

Zhao Haiming and Zhao Meng both knew that the wooden boxes were all filled with the clothes of the fallen and broken army sailors, but the wooden boxes were not enough before they were shipped in pockets.

One can imagine how many lives have been lost in the warm ocean of the south.

Zhao Lie also came to the dock with Zhao Da and Yu Dabao, and all the soldiers saluted Zhao Lie neatly.

Zhao Lie returned the salute and walked to the top to stand beside the military formation.

Liu Fugui and the guards hurriedly saluted, and the Jinghai guards where they were were now stationed on Shidao.

The Jinghai Garrison Army, together with more than 3,000 elite garrisons drawn from other garrisons, has become today's Jinghai Garrison soldiers, totaling more than 6,000 people.

Now the commander is Liu Fugui, and Zou Huaien is now Liu Fugui's subordinate Qianzong.

Of course, the soldiers stationed on Shidao were the best candidates to greet the dead, so Liu Fugui received an order, and except for the two thousand troops on duty, the rest of the soldiers arrived here.

In addition to the 2,000 soldiers surrounding the barracks and the docks, the remaining 3,000 or so soldiers came to the docks to meet the fallen brothers.

"Liu Fugui, tell your subordinates that all the brothers who sacrificed their lives for the country have returned home, and I hope that they will respect these brothers, don't make noise or whisper, if anyone dares to violate the ban, they will immediately engage in military law."

Zhao Lie solemnly ordered.

In fact, these ceremonial proclamators who greeted the fallen soldiers of the Broken Army had already preached I don't know how many times.

However, there were too many soldiers killed this time, and there were also a large number of soldiers who came to pick up the soldiers, and Zhao Lie didn't want any of the people who lacked strings to make a fool of themselves on this solemn occasion, so that this solemn ceremony would become tasteful.

"Liu Fugui obeys the order, and the soldiers under his command will definitely welcome the soldiers who sacrificed their lives for the country back to the camp."

Liu Fugui saluted respectfully.

Then several guards were sent out to pass on the total of each thousand and the hundred, and passed the order of the commander.

When the first Galen merchant ship docked on the dock, the three thousand corps formed three large formations in a neat row, and the more than 3,000 soldiers stood respectfully and solemnly.

At the forefront of the military array were Zhao Lie, Yu Fugui and others.

When the Galen merchant ship stopped and the gangway was erected, Zhao Lie was the first to walk onto the merchant ship with a wooden box in his hand, and the deck was already covered with the clothes of the fallen soldiers.

Zhao Lie put the clothes of a captain named Lan San into the wooden box, and then walked off the bow of the boat under the entourage of Zhao Da and Yu Dabao, followed by Yu Fugui and others.

Zhao Lie returned to his original position on the dock and placed the wooden box on the ground, and then stood behind him and waited.

Yu Fugui and the others also returned to Zhao Lie's back with wooden boxes in their hands and stood solemnly.

All the other soldiers boarded the ships in turn, and returned to the docks with the clothes of the fallen soldiers from the merchant ships.

There was no sound from the entire dock and the warship except for the sound of soldiers moving around.

All the soldiers on and off the ship stood with solemnity, and the entire dock and harbor did not look like there were tens of thousands of soldiers at all.

When all the fallen soldiers on the two Galen ships were greeted in their attire, the three large formations of soldiers were restored to order.

"Brothers, Ben is going to take you home." Zhao Liehu shouted with tears in his eyes, and walked towards the camp with the wooden box in his hand first.

No one can understand the heaviness of Zhao Lie's body, because the heavy casualties of the Broken Army still appeared under his military order, and only he understands how much change he has brought to this world and how many people's fates have changed.

Yes, he has rescued hundreds of thousands of refugees and made them live a good life, and these Liao people and Shandong refugees are grateful to him and the Zhao family, and even worship his portrait in almost every house, because they are no longer forced to sell their sons and daughters, and live a rich and decent life.

But Zhao Lie knew in his heart that he also used these refugees to train the first strong army of the Ming Dynasty, and this strong army fought everywhere with his military orders, it can be said that the ten years of the broken army were the ten years of blood-stained robes, and there was hardly much leisure time, and the prestige of this strong army was forged with the blood of the soldiers and the heads of the enemy.

In essence, these soldiers and civilians do not owe him anything, and both sides actually take what they need.

But he can only bury this sentence in his heart, because there is still a big battle waiting for him and the Broken Army, it is a decisive battle that can only be won and not defeated, and he needs this strong army to burst out the most fearless spirit and the strongest combat power for him and Huaxia.

Zhao Lie set off first, and all the soldiers followed Zhao Lie's footsteps and marched neatly towards the barracks.

All the soldiers are surging with reverence for Zhao Lie, is there such a handsome in Daming.

Give full salaries and rewards to the soldiers, help them start a family, give large pensions to the wounded and wounded, visit the wounded, and carry the coffins of the fallen brothers.

There is one in the realm of the Ming Dynasty, is there such a general, is there such a lord?

All the soldiers followed Zhao Lie silently and solemnly, but there was a fire in their hearts, they knew that even if they sacrificed their lives for the country one day in the future, the glory behind them would be taken care of by Lord Zhao, and they would be afraid of a ball.
