Yan Hong also slapped the table, his eyes were bigger than Mao Haifeng: "Presumptuous!" In front of Ben Qincha, you dare to be so rude? Mao Haifeng, you'd better see the situation clearly, this is full of people up and down, someone wants to kill your father-in-law, and someone wants to protect your father-in-law in order to open the sea. Whoever is your ally and who is your enemy is only when you know it is good to act. If you bite like this, I am afraid that it will not only harm Wang Wufeng's life, but also bring tens of thousands of heroes on the sea and millions of people along the coast! ”

Mao Haifeng saw that Yan Hong's momentum was more arrogant than him, but he shrank down. But he saw a widow beside him shouting: "This official's conscience is greatly broken, and he said that he wanted to help us, but he just wanted to run for his life." We will not spare him! ”

This Japanese man was about forty years old, with big shoulders and a round waist, and a face full of meat, and his name was Nobita Ito. He was originally a ronin of Hakata, and he was born as a samurai, so he has the character Miao. At the beginning, he cooperated with Wang Zhi in Shuangyu, and Wang Zhi was still Xu Dong's treasury at that time, so this Ito was one of the top veterans in Wang Zhi's army.

Yan Hong heard that this Japanese devil was so rude, and slapped the table again: "You widow, what are you yelling about?" Want to run for your life? Joke, the 400,000 White Lotus Sect disciples in Jinan City, 5,000 Mongolian iron horsemen, all eat their own officials, you have a few people here, what is the way? Mao Haifeng, you need to think clearly about everything, this official advocates opening the sea in front of long live, for the sake of the vitality of millions of coastal residents, for the Ming Dynasty and foreign exchanges, and for the people to be rich and the country strong. If you think that with tens of thousands of pirates, you can make the court afraid of you, that's a joke! Although the imperial court is now in ruins of coastal defense, it has strong national strength, millions of elite soldiers, and thousands of heavy artillery. Just because most of them are the people. Go to the sea to make a living. That's why it's used together. My sister-in-law Xu Hai was recruited because of this. If you think you are fierce. If you live up to the virtue of living up to the good life, you will definitely disturb the sea frontier, and the imperial court will do all your best to deal with it, how can Lianger and the others be a thunderous blow! ”

Ito was forced to ask by Yan Hong, and he was also sexual, and with a snort, he pulled out the short knife he carried and shouted: "Wang Zhujun! Hugh wants to talk to this official. We will lead the troops, attack Ningbo first, and then slaughter Jiaxing, so that the dog official knows how powerful our heroes on the sea are! ”

Yan Hong was furious and scolded, "Eight Grid Tooth Road!" "I was stunned. I didn't expect this young Qincha to scold people in Japanese language! Yan Hong shouted again: "Mao Haifeng, I only want you to ask you, do you want Wang Zhi to live or Wang Zhi to die?" ”

Mao Haifeng said: "Then you still need to say? My father-in-law treats me like a mountain, so I naturally want to save his old man from danger! ”

Yan Hong nodded and said, "Very good." I also want to save Wang Zhi's life. But in this world, there are many people who want Wang Zhi to die. Wang Bengu is one. That Li Wenzao of Shaoxing, I think it is also one. Is there no such man among you at sea? But now Wang Zhi is dead or alive, who has the final say? Only the emperor has the final say! The emperor wants Wang Zhi to die, even if you slaughter the coast, you can only make him die even worse. The emperor wants Wang to live straight, and a thousand kings can't help him. You say, long live the old man, do you want Wang Zhi to die, or do you want Wang Zhi to live? ”

When his question was raised, the would-be robbers looked at each other. Wang Cuiqiao hurriedly answered: "Brother, you know the affairs of the court best, just tell us about it." ”

Yan Hong nodded and said: "All the heroes are at sea, and this matter in the DPRK and China is indeed not as familiar as Ben Qincha. In his heart, Long Live actually wants to open up the sea and trade, so that China and foreign countries can communicate with each other, make the Ming country rich and strong, and let the people live and work in peace and contentment. For this reason, Long Live Lord only pardoned my sister-in-law Xu Hai last time. The same is true for the old shipowner this time. If he had the heart of the long-lived master, he would have spared the old shipowner what happened in the past, and he would have to open the sea to make meritorious contributions. It's a pity that there is a group of dog officials, who always deceive the saints, saying that the old shipowner refuses to restrain his subordinates, and sooner or later he will inevitably raise troops and burn them. Now this king Bengu has arrested the old ship owner without authorization, which is against the emperor's original intention, but he wants you people at sea to provoke and attack the coast, so he just happened to say to the emperor, you see, I said earlier that these widows are unwilling to submit. So the emperor was furious, and the old shipowner's life was naturally gone. Mao Haifeng, if you want the old shipowner to die earlier, and you can take over by yourself, then you can make a fuss, Li Wenzao and Wang Bengu are very happy to make such a fuss. ”

Mao Haifeng was silent for a moment and said, "But what should my father-in-law do when he is in prison?" ”

Yan Hong said: "This is exactly what I did when I went to Hangzhou. On the one hand, he tried to rescue the old ship owner directly, and on the other hand, he went to the court, saying that Wang Bengu's grandson had done a lack of morality, and let the emperor punish him. As long as the emperor speaks, the safety of the old shipowner will not be a problem. So, now it's up to you to give me how much time you're willing to give. If you don't make trouble, when my fold goes to the court and the emperor's decree comes down, then everyone will be happy. But if you make trouble in three days and five days, then you can't live it, and our family has to give the old ship owner a beautiful funeral. ”

When Yan Hong said this, he stopped his mouth and watched the actions of those gangsters. Xu Hai hurriedly said: "Haifeng, what Yan Qincha said is true. We're all messing up at sea, but we can't watch the old shipowner being killed by the dog officer. We must always let the emperor know that our loyalty is. ”

When the Japanese man Nobita Ito heard this, he laughed strangely, and when he was about to interject, Mao Haifeng said: "Uncle Ito, stay." Yan Qincha, today I believe your words. I ask you to go to Hangzhou so that I can save my father-in-law. If his old man has any mistakes, hum, let's call the Ming Haijiang miserable, it can still be done. With that, he stood up and led the men to turn and leave.

Yan Hong secretly scolded in his heart, rabbit cub, what kind of hero is he with Lao Tzu. Next time you'll beg me on your knees. But he just smiled and added: "Mao Haifeng, in the opinion of Ben Qincha, those people at sea may not all listen to you." If you can't restrain them, then restrain your own people. In this way, at least in front of the emperor, it can be said that none of Wang Zhi's subordinates rebelled. If I can fight back and annihilate those who are disobedient, then I will be better able to speak to the old shipowner. ”

When Mao Haifeng heard this, he was silent and left directly. After waiting for Mao Haifeng and the others to leave the ship, Xu Haiyi gave a thumbs up: "Qincha, good eloquence, this time, I don't think Mao Haifeng will act rashly." ”

Wang Cuiqiao said with a worried face: "Although Mao Haifeng listened to his brother's words for a while, after returning to Cen Gang, he might be tempted again by those people. Brother, you better go to Hangzhou as soon as possible and rescue the old shipowner. Moreover, although Mao Haifeng is still standing still, Chen Dong and Ye Ma are said to have dispatched their henchmen and started to make trouble in some places. Therefore, the court may not make sense. ”

When Yan Hong heard this, he also felt that it was tricky. But at this point, naturally we can only do our best. After deciding on this matter, Xu Hai talked with Yan Hong about the current situation of the Japanese army's strength and equipment. Xu Hai is the most capable of fighting among the Japanese invaders, and his qualifications to independently pull the banner are earlier than Wang Zhi, the so-called knowing oneself and knowing the other, and not being defeated in a hundred battles. Xu Hai was very familiar with the strength of all walks of life along the southeast coast, including the Ming army, the Japanese and the Westerners, and the information and advice he provided to Yan Hong were extremely valuable.

According to Xu Hai, Chen Dong and Ye Ma are both known as tens of thousands of people, but that includes the elderly, weak, women and children. If this part is subtracted, their actual soldiers do not exceed 5,000. Taken together, these two, together with the more than 5,000 Shin Wa brought by Shingoro from Japan, and some stragglers, there were probably about 20,000 troops, which was the most unreliable factor.

Wang Cao's own direct administration of more than 20,000 soldiers, well-equipped, and a large number of firearms, can be called a formidable enemy. It's just that Wang Cao has no way to use troops, and the 20,000 people under his direct jurisdiction are also divided into many small hills. Therefore, from the current Zhao'an perspective, it is better to worry about whether Wang Wei can control his subordinates, lest they join Chen Dong and Ye Ma and act mischiefly.

In addition, these three families have a common problem, lack of training. Although they are pirates, most of the time, they still make a living by collecting protection money from incoming and outgoing merchant ships, or doing business directly, and their desperate efforts are secondary. These pirates belong to various small groups, and the commanders also lack military literacy, and most of them do not train themselves.

Including the old ship owner Wang Zhi himself, although he also has a hand in fighting with soldiers, he has fought the Ming army several times in Shuangyu, but his large number of men and horses have not been able to carefully organize and train. Although they can use firearms under the guidance of the Franco, they are not proficient, and some of them have developed the courage to rely on firearms and lack the courage to fight in the white-knuckle. The situation of Chen Dong and Ye Ma's troops was even worse, they were not even very good at the manipulation of firearms, and the number of firearms was very limited.

Compared with them, Xu Hai's 6,000 soldiers are real, and he can not only use soldiers, but also train soldiers, and the troops have undergone strict training and dare to fight white-knuckle battles, but he is a reliable reinforcement. He also suggested that Yan Hong, in case of failure to recruit An, if he really wanted to go to war, it was best to put it on the shore and fight hand-to-hand combat. Although the old shipowner's subordinates had a lot of guns, they were of little use when they got closer. It's just that the southeast military guard has been rotten for a long time and is unusable, and the old shipowner's team is rotten, and they are even worse, so don't entrust it with heavy tasks. I heard that Qi Jiguang, nicknamed Qi Laohu, recruited troops in Yiwu, organized and trained a new army, and also practiced a ghost formation. If Yan Hong wants to fight, he must win over the new army, which should be available.

As for those big and small Franc machine people, they mainly play soy sauce. At that time, these Westerners also showed off their might on the sea for a while, and when Shuangyu was entrenched, their troops were even more than Wang Zhi for a time. It's just that after the defeat of Shuangyu and the expansion of Wang Zhi's strength, these people are now in a secondary position in the two oceans. Wang Zhizhao'an didn't dare to mix with this matter at will, for fear that if they didn't pay attention to it, they would die and there would be no scum left. The Francophiles who participated in the Cen Gang meeting this time all supported Wang Cao's principle of not moving. However, if the raiding of the coastal areas by the Japanese pirates goes well, they may also actively participate in the robbery driven by profits.

Shingoro's true widow is also different from the true widow that crisscrossed the southeast back then. At that time, although the number of those true Japanese was small, they were mainly samurai, and their combat power was relatively high. As for the Xingoro Division, although there are also samurai, there are more people from the country, fishermen, etc., and their strength is slightly weaker. In this operation, these real widows were equipped with more than 300 iron cannons, and there were also many people who were proficient in swordsmanship. In addition to the new Yin body Sheliu, which is more popular in the Kyushu generation, there are also a few swordsmen who are descendants of Aizhou Yinliu. The founder of this Aishu Yin Stream, Aizhou Xiangzhai, is said to be the priest of Kyushu Hyuga, and he has some means. His protégé is not to be underestimated. (To be continued......)
