Zhang Ke also came into contact with the poor, such as the slaves who fled from Mongolia at the beginning, who were absolutely poor and had nothing. But when Dad talked about the situation on the side of the Jurchen, it completely refreshed the bottom line of poverty.

The people there had no cloth, only animal skins or fish skins, no iron pots, no rice bowls, and even hunting weapons were made of animal bones and teeth, and more extremely, stones.

There is no doctor there, and whenever I get sick, I invite my shaman grandmother to jump and jump, which is basically life and death!

The most terrible thing is that there may be no people in a radius of 100 miles, and most of the year is covered by wind and snow, and every household must hunt wildly before winter, collect wild fruits, and store materials for the winter. Once they save less, the family is at risk of starvation.

The main reason why Zhang Haichuan can quickly get the recognition of the big guy is that he is proficient in Chinese and Korean, and he can sell worthless animal skins in exchange for valuable living materials.

After listening to his father's introduction, Zhang Ke completely understood that he was facing a wasteland, where the people almost lived a primitive life. No wonder Jiannu will do everything possible to capture the Jurchens, these savages have nothing, they don't even care about death, they just happen to be the most savage warriors.

Jiannu can do it, why can't I do it!

Zhang Ke suddenly made up his mind, and a smug smile appeared on his face again.

"Dad, if I can give those raw girls the living materials they really need, can they obey my orders?"

"This ...... Ke'er, you also know that those people are all savages, they only know fists, and they don't talk about benevolence, righteousness and morality. Just giving something might not work, but I figured out that a bounty would work. ”

"Bounty?" Zhang Ke asked in surprise.

"That's right, just tell them, cut off the head of a Jiannu. can change a pot, kill two Jiannu, and get a bowl, and they promise not to be happy. ”

"It's as simple as that?"

"Hehehe, it's as simple as that!" Zhang Haichuan said with a smile: "Ke'er, the pass is how much money you are willing to pay, after all, it takes thousands of miles to transport it from here, and it costs a lot of ......."

"Money is not an issue!" Zhang Ke smiled heroically: "Dad, I'm afraid you don't know yet." The child has a little ability to turn stones into gold, so he took out a piece of paper casually, printed flowers and plants, and stamped it with a big seal to use it as silver. ”

Zhang Haichuan frowned, and scolded with a smile for a while: "Boy, what kind of bullshit turns stones into gold, it's a silver ticket, right?" ”

"Almost, as long as you can buy the birth of a Jurchen, it's no problem to spend two or three million taels." Zhang Ke has just settled Jiangnan. It is when the wealth is abundant, and spending a few million taels is the same as buying a few catties of meat on the street, which is too easy.

But Zhang Haichuan was almost scared down. The cranial nerves were completely confused by Zhang Ke's torture, and he was speechless and asked Cang Tian, what kind of monster is his son, and where did he get so much money!

……

After the father and son made a plan. It was soon finalized, and winter was less than two months away, once the sea was frozen. We will have to wait until after the beginning of spring next year to take action.

Obviously, Zhang Ke didn't want Huang Taiji to have a good winter, so he immediately ordered Li Zhizao, Yang Tingyun, and Tang Bi to start scheduling.

A total of 200 ships were prepared, and if it were not for the high winds and rough seas at sea, I was afraid that there would be more ships. With the ship came 3,500 soldiers.

Although he plans to be born by the Jurchen to deal with Jiannu, he also has to be quite strong, if he can't suppress the Jurchen, these people will rebel against his master.

These 3,500 people were all veterans who followed Zhang Ke in the southern expedition to the north, and many of them were hardcore henchmen from the area of Daqing Fort.

When they heard that Zhang Haichuan had been missing for 20 years, he came back again, and they simply regarded Zhang Haichuan as an idol. After the dinner, everyone was saying, no wonder Grandpa Guo is so capable, and his father is not bad!

Zhang Ke made a lot of money, he equipped all these people with flintlock pistols, and sent Qiao Gui and Ma Rufeng to follow, and let Du Qing be in charge of military affairs, and then transferred Luo Xiaoyu over. He was originally in charge of Jiannu's intelligence, and this time he happened to support the intelligence network in the north of Jiannu.

It is not enough to mobilize elite soldiers and strong generals, Zhang Ke took out 300,000 stone grains, 100,000 catties of cabbage and potatoes and other shelf-stable vegetables, as well as a large number of military uniforms and warm clothes, in short, enough for these people for half a year.

In addition to these, the remaining 150 ships were all loaded with swords, guns, swords, halberds, pots and pans, cotton woollen fabric, firewood, rice, oil, salt, and in short, there was no shortage of daily necessities. There are also ten boats of the best silk and Shu brocade, which are specially prepared to envelop those tribal elders.

Yiju's mobilization ability is indeed superhuman, and in less than half a month, it was all ready.

"Dead old man, it's only been a few days since he came back and he has to leave, it's all because of Ke'er, what a bad idea!"

Zhang Ke didn't dare to look directly at the old lady's gaze, so he could only lower his head and be scolded obediently. Zhang Haichuan pretended to be proud and smiled: "Madame understands the righteousness, I will go back this time, one is to give the old brother a way out, and the other is to make contributions, you can't watch the two sons rise to the top officials and do great things, I, the father, have become a wreck!" ”

"Hmph, they're just turning the sky upside down, and you're also their father!" Shen gritted his teeth and said, "In this way, I will go with you, I have suffered all the crimes left and right, isn't it just to stay away, there is nothing to be afraid of!" ”

"Don't!"

Zhang Haichuan's face almost turned green, if he took his wife and fought against the king over there, there would be no good fruit to eat. But he couldn't come up with a good idea, so he could only give Zhang Ke a look desperately.

"Mother, my father is going to subdue the birth of Jurchen, and he also has to attack the rear of Jiannu, he must be running back and forth, you are old, but it makes Daddy hang more. It's only a few months, as long as Du Qing and Qiao Gui figure out the situation, I will take my father back, he is the head of our family, and the child is reluctant to let his father suffer! ”

As soon as Zhang Ke said this, Xiaoxue, Hui'er, and Zhang Yunmei all came over to persuade him, which finally made Shen dispel his thoughts.

"Master, this is a knee pad and waist pad, as well as a mink hat and gloves, when it's cold, just wear it, you have frostbite on your feet and hands, don't do it when you're old, nothing is as safe as our family!"

It's still a wife who hurts!

Zhang Haichuan hugged the cloth bag tightly, and tears couldn't stop flowing.

"Okay, I'm leaving, if I don't leave, I won't be able to leave!"

Zhang Haichuan flew on his horse, took Du Qing, Qiao Gui and others, and rushed to Jinzhou with a smoke. Got on the big ship from Jinzhou. Along the Korean Peninsula, the journey to the north began.

Wherever the huge fleet passed, the local officials of the DPRK were so frightened that they were afraid that the Celestial Dynasty would ask the master to ask for the guilt, so they hurriedly prepared enough cattle and sheep wine and syrup, and sent it to the ship to reward the soldiers, and even sent many women.

Zhang Haichuan had to sigh, in the past, when he came to North Korea to do business, he was like a thief, no, he was a thief! Now it is majestic, life and death. It's a wonderful taste.

Passing by Korea is quite ordinary, when the fleet appeared in the Tsushima Strait, the Japanese immediately went crazy, what have they done in the past, they know in their hearts, does the Celestial Empire want them to settle accounts?

All the officials and people in Japan ran to the shrine and kowtowed to pray, even if they bled their heads!

Kamikaze, kamikaze. Come on!

Faced with the huge fleet of the Ming Dynasty, they had no choice but to turn to the gods for help, and there was no other way.

"You don't need to worry, the assassin who assassinated the grandfather of the country is your samurai. Sooner or later, this account will be settled, so just wait! ”

Du Qing's big fist slammed into the side of the ship, "Brothers, shoot!" ”

"Yes!"

The soldiers raised their firearms. A shot was fired towards the coast, and the sound of the fire gun was like a popping bean, and enough was vented. before continuing north. Du Qing didn't know that when this random gun rang out, the Japanese near the beach were so frightened that they ran wildly, and several of them ran and vomited blood and died on the side of the road...... Since then, there has been a proverb left - the Celestial Empire goes on an expedition and scares people to death!

The big guy didn't care about the reaction of the Japanese, bypassed the Tsushima Strait, continued north, and finally arrived at the southern tip of Sakhalin Island before the cold winter came.

Right by the sea, there is a large row of wooden houses, many of which are making salted meat, drying furs, and preparing for the winter.

"Folks, brethren, I'm back!"

The donkey was shouting loudly at the bow of the boat, and the people on the shore had never seen such a large fleet, and they all wanted to escape. But when he saw the flower donkey, he immediately smiled.

Briefly, Zhang Haichuan returned to Sakhalin Island with his soldiers and countless supplies. Their task was to cut down the trees at once, build wooden houses, use them as camps for the soldiers, and store the supplies.

As for the survival of the next few months, everyone did not dare to be sloppy at all, and the people on the island also helped together, and in almost half a month, everything was ready, and the weather became colder and colder, since the first snow fell, the sea surface froze rapidly, and it became thicker and thicker, and finally connected the island and the mainland.

Every cold winter is a ghost gate, the old and weak, women and children, and the weak will freeze and starve to death at any time. But this winter was completely different for the people of Sakhalin. Everyone was singing and laughing, and they no longer had to worry about survival.

Seven days after the sea ice was completely frozen, Zhang Haichuan sent special men to send an invitation to all the surrounding tribes to Sakhalin Island.

Bayan, the leader of the Hohe tribe, was an old friend of Hua Donkey, and as soon as the two of them met, he screamed strangely.

"My friend, what kind of spell did you cast, how did you move down the heavenly fairyland!"

The flower donkey pouted, and said in his heart that it was terrible to be uneducated, this is a fairyland, so what is the place where Lao Tzu lives in Yizhou? He completely forgot that he was also a Zhuge at the beginning!

"Hahaha, Bayan, our big boss has the help of the Ming Dynasty officials, and we have the one you want!" Saying that, the flower donkey led everyone to the front of the camp, and the wooden booth was full of all kinds of silk and silk and jade jewelry. But these people didn't even look at it, they all crowded into the exhibition area of pots and pans, they were too short of daily necessities.

An old man hugged a big iron pot and burst into tears, while Bayan was clutching a stack of delicate rice bowls in a daze. Others are even more drooling and their eyes are not enough.

"Hahaha, guys, do you like it?"

"Of course I like it, say, how many skins do you need?" Bayan gasped and asked, "No matter how much, I'll give it to you!" ”

The donkey patted his chest and laughed loudly: "Old friend, it's a dream to change it just because you break your skin!" ”

"Then you say, how can you change it?"

"It's easy, a Tartar head, calculated by thirty taels of silver, get here, change things casually, and buy whatever you want!" (To be continued......)
