Section 303 Dark incense
What is dark incense?
In the eyes of Confucianism in the Ming Dynasty, this is a brand name. Meaning: a tranquil aroma.
In the eyes of the white crane, this is the spirit of the night, the secret sailor of the white crane.
Hua Mei gave a Ming military salute and knelt on one knee: "Bai Li's Hua Mei received the order and is willing to fight for the Ming Dynasty." ”
When he heard Bai Li's self-proclaimed, several people in the room were a little moved, Huaiyu opened his mouth wide in surprise, stared at Bai Minghe with a displeased face, and said in his heart, brother-in-law, you villain, when did you do it to Hua Mei. Qinghe is very calm, she knows that Bai Minghe has done nothing to Hua Mei, just like a sister, and has a lot of care.
The master of the forbidden army just sighed at the charm of Bai Minghe's personality, and even a woman was willing to fight for it.
I was even more impressed by the courage of the white crane, and asked who would dare to be a woman after the Great Song Dynasty.
He bowed down and said, "Master, the flagship of the new fleet might as well be named Pingyang!" ”
"Pingyang, Princess Pingyang of the Tang Dynasty fought for the Tang Dynasty, was buried as a military general, and entered the genealogy of the Tang Dynasty as a woman. This ship's name, Hua Mei, can't stand it. Qinghe helped Hua Mei speak on the side, she knew that this ship name was not ordinary, and the meaning of accepting this ship name was absolutely extraordinary.
"It's called Pingyang!" Bai Minghe said that if there is really a fixed number in the dark, the name Li Huamei may represent a powerful sailor.
"The herald ordered the Daming Navy Division to recruit female soldiers from the guards, secretly select suitable prisoners, and select suitable slaves. The Fujian Navy Division transferred 1,300 new soft sails to 30 ocean-going warships and 50 logistics ships to 800 materials. 500 new artillery, 10,000 stainless steel knives, muskets, crossbows, and so on. Formed on the same day. ”
"Order!" Li Huamei's whole body trembled with excitement.
She was originally the daughter of a military general, and her grandmother was once named the champion of the Ming Dynasty, and she was a martial arts family, so she was naturally unwilling to be just a maid. She doesn't rely on her looks to please Shira-naa-chan cranes, she will use the knife in her own hand.
"Master, what excuse do you have for the three major sailors?"
"The Secret Army. They don't need to know, I'm going to live the secret. Blocking the trade between Lee's Goryeo and Wado would be of great benefit to our Ming Dynasty. When encountering a small fleet of Daming, it is enough to dodge, and the large fleet naturally has the supervision of the East Factory in the fleet, leaving a secret way to contact them. Don't beat your own people. ”
In fact, the white crane does not have to explain this.
Hua Mei's subordinates are all real female men drawn from various water divisions and guards. They must have a subsidy at home. The Daming Sailor naturally knew that there would be a female sailor, so when they saw an all-female fleet, no matter what this fleet was doing, they would not take the initiative to attack.
"Wait a minute!" Shira-chan Crane motioned for Hua Mei to stay in the restaurant.
Go back to your room. Shira-nae came back with two things.
"This is my gift to you. Put it away. The white crane gave Hua Mei two daggers.
One is a butterfly knife. It is the kind of two-handle flail used in Hong Kong-made TVs in later generations. When put together, the average person can't tell that it's a knife. The white crane shook it a few times in his hand, and it was also a game he learned from later generations of TV. When he was younger, he used to have a stall.
Like this murderous weapon, which has been tempered for thousands of years, it is the first time I have held it in my hand.
Hua Mei liked it very much.
In fact, Shira's guards preferred it, and as an Assassin, he liked this kind of hidden and terrifying small weapons. However, he won't speak, he just needs to report to Wang Cheng, and it won't be long before Bai Minghe will bring them a few carriages.
The other is also a short knife, but it is full of domineering.
Bai Minghe prefers to call this Lambbo knife, a short knife full of murderous spirit, especially the serration on the back of the knife gives people a great pressure, and the middle of the blade is not a groove, but a gap about half a finger wide. Just by imagination, this knife is absolutely fatal to stab people.
"Young Master Xie!" Li Huamei was also taken aback by this weapon.
Da Ming also has all kinds of knives, but this kind of murderous real first one.
Bai Minghe smiled and handed a bamboo tube to his guard: "This is for you, this thing is purely for killing." Once you stab it, the bleeding can't be stopped, you study it. If possible, build it in large quantities. ”
The real killer is given to the guards. In the future, the triangular army thorn!
"When the knife is drawn from a person, it can be said that no one can live." Bai Minghe doesn't need to explain, these guys in Dongchang are all masters of killing, and their lethality can be roughly analyzed just by this shape.
Hua Mei is gone.
It was Qinghe who sent Huamei to the dock, with the warrant of Bai Minghe and the two masters of the East Factory.
What does it take to build a new army? weapons, men, and silver.
Needless to say, since it is a secret army, it is naturally transferred from the three major water divisions. With the warrant of the white crane, if you don't count the transportation time, you can get enough weapons and ships for this new sailor in a few days. Silver, it's not a problem here in the white crane, you only need to say a number.
There are only people, and the white crane doesn't have much bottom in his heart.
But Li Huamei is full of confidence, not to mention the ordinary guards in Guangdong and Fujian, even the daughters of the generals' families who have killed the Japanese and bandits can pick out hundreds of women at will, they are from military families, and they are naturally unwilling to be just a woman who pleases men by her hue and teaches her husband and children.
Confucianism has a great influence among the people, but not necessarily in the military.
Li Huamei left, for Bai Minghe a little bit of a sense of loss, he never really cared about the people around him, and he didn't know what everyone wanted in their hearts?
As far as Daming is concerned, Li Huamei can be regarded as a deviant behavior.
Qinghe went to see off Huamei, and Huaiyu asked Bai Minghe in the house: "Brother-in-law, is it really fun to fight and kill?" ”
"No, it's not that it's fun to fight and kill. It's just that Hua Mei has what she wants, and she doesn't want to be an ornament. Bai Minghe explained to Huaiyu with his own understanding, but Huaiyu still didn't understand, and asked: "Decoration, what is decoration?" ”
"You have been to the palace, many concubines in the palace are furnished, their lives are the same every day, the only thing they look forward to is the call of Banzai to them, and the rest of the things even they don't know what they should need, think about it from another angle, what they think about most every day may be how to spend this day!"
"I don't understand!" Huaiyu may have understood something, but she didn't plan to talk to Bai Minghe about these issues again. Huaiyu is a Ming girl who has been educated by tradition, and her moral standards are like those of a child educated by Confucianism. Bai Minghe's words were already somewhat taboo, so Huaiyu chose to avoid them.
On the dock, Wang Cheng and others were still on the boat.
Not only them, but in fact, the Daming Navy Division also has some fourth- and fifth-grade generals on the ship.
The rank of the fleet of the white crane is relatively high, the captain of the Fu ship is the general of the fourth grade, the captain of the 2000 warship is also the military attache of the sixth grade, and even a few of them are from the fifth grade, and the governor of the fleet is all the official of the fourth grade.
The news that Bai Minghe is going to build a new fleet can not be known to ordinary sailor soldiers, but it cannot be kept out of some generals with special identities and good low positions in the sailor division. In the fleet of white cranes, there are four or five people who are qualified to know this news.
"It's fun to let a bunch of little girls go to war." The older generals all burst out laughing.
"Isn't it a joke? What can they do? A young general asked.
Several older generals and the eunuchs of the prison army, who were not too young, all laughed, they were warriors, not Confucian scholars. Moreover, the eunuchs also have some understanding of the situation in Daming, and since they are prison soldiers, they naturally have a very detailed understanding of the situation in the various guards of Daming.
An elderly prison soldier said: "Lord Bai is doing a good deed, the leader of the Fujian Evil Women's Group is surnamed Lan, the daughter of General Lan Hai, who is nineteen years old but can't get married." The matchmaker who came to the door broke more than a dozen legs alone, not to mention General Lan, even the guards and political envoys had a headache for these women. ”
"I like it!" The young general's eyes immediately narrowed.
The young general was the first to storm Mindanao when he fought the pirates. As a young general of the Marine Corps, he was the supreme leader of the Fleet Marine Corps. Naturally, he is qualified to be here, albeit the youngest and the least qualified.
"Do you like it?" Several of the older generals were curious.
The young general's face turned red at once, and a general who was already in his fifties said at the moment:
"That's right, those little women with broken mouths only know what to introduce, but they don't know that those white-faced little scholars, Lao Tzu can pinch a string to death with one hand. It's just that I don't know what good babies are left and right, anyway, it can only be like this. You kid also have some guts, but the kung fu in your hands can't be bad, and you always have to beat the female doll of the Lan family. ”
Hearing the elder say this, the young general smiled happily.
"I'm afraid I can pick one out of a thousand!" The older overseer also said on the side, but he was not talking about picking marriages, but saying that the newly built fleet of Bai Minghe could be composed of enough good personnel.
From the point of view of the military, they are in favor of the white crane.
The daughters in the family are in the habit of beating and killing, and it is better to let them embroider than to kill them, which is always very boring. In ancient times, Mulan joined the army, and there were female generals of the Yang family. That is, those sour Confucians will say what kind of things like husbands and children, and Guanli is not allowed to go out at home.
This news can't be spread outside, but it can't stop some rumors within the water division.
The generals sent their cronies to entrust some secret letters to the trusted generals. Naturally, there are many personnel who can be placed in the formation of a new fleet, including the expectation that experienced veteran generals will help check when choosing ships and weapons!
