Chapter 582: Zheng Yiguan
The night breeze blows the water, and the silver waves shimmer in the moonlight, and you feel the gentle breeze, which makes people feel very comfortable. However, Wang Quan was not in the mood to appreciate it at this time, and stood alone on the boulder, anxiously waiting for something.
"Commander, I'm afraid the fleet won't be back tonight! The brother who had just inquired had returned, and the fleet had stopped five miles away. Looks like I'm not going to come here tonight, I'm afraid I won't be here until tomorrow! Zhao De walked to Wang Quan's side and said respectfully.
Sighing softly, a touch of peace flashed on Wang Quan's face, and he didn't speak for a long time.
"Commander, today some brothers have escaped, and more than a dozen brothers have left!" Zhao De's face was full of anger, more helplessness and loss.
Waving his hand, Wang Quan smiled bitterly: "I have long expected that everyone has their own ambitions, and it may be more important than anything else to survive at this time." ”
"Commander, why don't we go and surrender to the emperor! It's so risky, no one wants to die! Zhao De's face also flashed with a touch of bitterness, and he said with some embarrassment.
Glancing back at Zhao De, Wang Quan sighed deeply and said: "How can things be as simple as you think, our family is in the hands of An Xiangbo, let's go to tell the truth, what should we do with our family?" Tomorrow when things start, don't stay with me, take advantage of the chaos and leave! The family always needs a man to take good care of Yan'er for me, and I will die without regrets! ”
"Commander, go back! The life of the little one is not worth much, you are old and young, you can't have anything! Zhao De was slightly stunned, quickly shook his head, and objected.
"I'm the commander, and I can't go anyone who goes. Otherwise I'm sorry brothers! Remember, when you go back, you will leave this chaotic place with your family! Wang Quan waved his hand and interrupted Zhao De's words.
No one spoke, and both of them fell into a sentimental mood, except for the constant lapping of the river against the rocks. Make a rattling sound.
Five miles away, the Emperor of the Apocalypse was standing on the bow of the ship at this time, directing a group of people to be busy!
"Get the lamp a little bit over here! Look at the fish and jump up! He smiled happily, and a few of the guards on the opposite side ordered: "Take the net, and catch the fish that jumps up!" ”
The Emperor of the Apocalypse remembered hearing that when it was dark he put a lamp on the bow of the boat, and the fish would jump out of the water. I wanted to try it, but I didn't expect it to work. It's a lot easier than fishing. Or you can't experience the fun of fishing, anyway, the Emperor of the Apocalypse thinks it's much more fun than fishing.
"Your Majesty, the slave maid is a good fish, let people stew it for the emperor!" Chen Hong walked over with a smile, holding a net in his hand, in which a big fish was constantly struggling.
The Emperor of the Apocalypse knew well behind Chen Hong, but to what extent, the Emperor of the Apocalypse did not know. But this hand-catching fish is a unique skill. That's not something that ordinary people can do.
Smiled and patted Chen Hong's shoulder, and the Emperor of the Apocalypse said with a smile: "Okay." Not bad! Take all the fish down and make it all stewed! Let everyone on the boat drink some, but don't drink too much, and whoever gets drunk will be thrown into the river to sober up! ”
"Yes, Your Majesty! The slave and maid will go and command! Chen Hong smiled flatteringly and hurriedly ran down.
"Your Majesty. Master Sun is back! Soon Chen Hong went and returned, without the frolic just now, and respectfully saluted the Emperor of the Apocalypse, and said.
The Emperor of the Apocalypse nodded, and the smile on his face was also put away. Turning around, he said, "Let him come to the cabin!" As he spoke, he walked first to the cabin.
After a short time, Sun Chuanting walked in, and saluted the Emperor of the Apocalypse, saying, "The minister Sun Chuanting sees the emperor!" ”
"Alright, sit down! I'm a little hungry, you can accompany me to eat something! There's still fish stewed outside, so it should be nice to wait a minute! The Emperor of the Apocalypse smiled and waved his hand so that Sun Chuanting could sit down and say casually.
Without too much politeness, it was not the first time that Sun Chuanting had dinner with the Emperor of the Apocalypse, knowing that the Emperor of the Apocalypse was not polite, and there were not so many rules. nodded, sat aside, and said, "Your Majesty, everything has been arranged, and the two teams will probably arrive early tomorrow!" ”
Nodding, the Emperor of the Apocalypse smiled and said, "How good is this, why go ashore, it is safest to be on the boat." We can't let these ships be destroyed, it's all good stuff. ”
"Yes, the emperor is wise! The minister has already ordered to go down, and the Beijing camp is 5,000 men and horses, and the soldiers are divided into two routes. Clear up along the two sides of the strait, and once someone plots against the law, correct the law on the spot! Sun Chuanting nodded hurriedly and complimented with admiration.
Last time, Sun Chuanting proposed to let the Emperor of the Apocalypse go ashore, but the Emperor of the Apocalypse did not agree, but proposed another plan. The 5,000 Beijing battalion men and horses who had been following the escort directly divided into two ways and transferred to the front! Originally, the men and horses of the Beijing camp were also protected along the two sides of the strait, but they always followed the sides of the fleet. This time, the Emperor of the Apocalypse dropped them to the front and assumed the responsibility of the vanguard.
"It's good that things are arranged, I still have confidence in the people of Jingying, even if someone really has a bad intention, I believe there will be no big problem." The Emperor of the Apocalypse looked at Sun Chuanting with a smile and said indifferently.
For this, the Emperor of the Apocalypse is definitely not blindly confident, but has confidence in the people of Jingying. You must know that after experiencing judgment and the war with Jiannu, the people of Jingying are the elite of the Ming Dynasty. If he couldn't deal with even a few small nights, the Emperor of the Apocalypse felt that he had raised them in vain.
Sun Chuanting's face on the side was also full of confidence, and he was very clear about the combat effectiveness of his subordinates. Without the slightest worry, Sun Chuanting said with a smile: "The emperor's blessings are naturally beneficial!" ”
Nanjing City, as always, is depressed, in an inconspicuous courtyard in Nancheng, a person is anxiously waiting for something. This is a young man in his twenties, although his face is immature, but his eyes are far more mature than his peers. Although he was anxiously walking back and forth at this time, the whole person still had a calm momentum.
Da-da-da-da! The sound of three knockers striking the door rang out, and it clearly reached the young man's ears. The young man was immediately happy, but he was not careless, and reached out to pick up the short knife on the table. Slowly walking to the door, the young man lowered his voice and said, "Yiguan, it's me!" ”
Hearing the familiar voice outside, the young man seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, but the hand holding the knife tightened a little. Stretching out his hand to open the door, the young man hurriedly looked out, saw that there was only one person, and hurriedly said, "Come in quickly!" ”
The man didn't dare to delay, and walked in in a flash. After looking left and right, and seeing that no one was following, the young man closed the door. Slowly walked back to the table, put the short knife on the table, and the young man quietly looked at the middle-aged man who was drinking water.
"How's it going? Is there any news coming in? Seeing that the middle-aged man had finished drinking, the young man hurriedly asked, and the expression on his face was also very urgent.
"The Dutch occupied Penghu, and they did make a few moves against Yizhou, but they were not big and did not have much impact. The Dutch are also hesitating, Xiamen is a good place, they have been thinking about it for a long time! The middle-aged man took a breath and said with a bit of mockery on his face.
The young man nodded, thought for a moment, and said, "The Dutch are in Penghu, so we are not at ease, and the Dutch are not at ease. Don't be deceived by them, Yizhou is behind Penghu, how can they let us keep an eye on him behind him? You can't be careless, otherwise Yizhou will lose what you say! ”
Glancing at the middle-aged man, the young man asked, "Have you seen your father-in-law?" The Dutch occupy Penghu, and my father-in-law is afraid that his life will be difficult! ”
"Yes! Li Gong has pressed some goods on his hands these days, and he doesn't dare to go to sea easily! The strength is weak, if the Dutch get the news, we are afraid that there will be more luck on our side! The middle-aged man also nodded, and his face was a little worried.
Zheng Yiguan sighed, his expression was a little complicated, and said, "Cheng Yu, is there any news?" ”
"Yes, there seems to be movement in the navy of the imperial court, and I heard that it has arrived in Chongming! I'm afraid that Nanjing will not be peaceful next, have you thought about what to do? Do you want to leave Nanjing first? Cheng Yu looked very worried about Zheng Yiguan, and his face was nervous when he spoke.
Waving his hand, Zheng Yiguan said confidently: "It's okay, we won't be exposed to the outside." However, the matter here in Nanjing has indeed come to an end, and the contact with Fang Shihong has ended. Just leave one messenger, and tomorrow I'll get up and go to my father-in-law!" ”
However, Zheng Yiguan did not have any joy on his face, but said with some concern: "The situation in Nanjing is complicated, and the navy of the imperial court has gone south again, it is really eventful!" I heard that the warships of the imperial court are all the latest warships, and I don't know what the power is, there is too little news! ”
Cheng Yu also nodded, but he waved his hand and said, "The affairs here in Nanjing have been busy with the imperial court for a while, let's just watch the excitement!" As for other things, let's not get too involved in them. We have been in Yizhou for so many years, and the navy of the imperial court has only been formed for a few days? If we really want to fight, we really won't be afraid! ”
"That is not to be said, now the Dutch are eyeing us, and the court is sending a navy at this time. Forget it, I can't understand it with you, when I see my stepfather, I'll talk to him! Zheng Yiguan remembered another person, frowned and said, "What has Xu Xinsu done recently?" Is he still that close to the Dutch? ”
"Xu Gong is the same as before, but he and Li Gong are brothers, I'm afraid it's useless for us to talk." The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment, but then said helplessly. (To be continued......)
