The vigorous and ancient plane trees stretched their branches into the sky, and the sky above the Nansha garrison headquarters was cloudy, filled with the atmosphere of mountain rain coming and wind filling the building. This three-story brick and stone building, the courtyard outside the building has turned autumn colors, and the ground is paved with shiny bluestone slabs and pebbles, and the winding path leads to the secluded place to hide an indescribable mystery.

Zhao Hai followed the guards all the way into the headquarters building, which was surrounded by wide corridors, and the floor was covered with flooded tiles, and there was a crisp sound when walking on it.

"Mr. Lai, please! The Commander has been waiting for you for a long time. The guards led him to the door of a room on the second floor.

"Dudu Du......" After the guard knocked on the door, a deep voice came from the room: "Come in!" ”

The guards opened the door, and Zhaohai saw a majestic man eight feet long smiling at him, and Shu Jinghuai, who was standing next to him, hurriedly stepped forward.

"Brother Zhaohai, welcome to you, this is Commander Jiang, I've been waiting for you here for a long time!" Shu Jinghuai warmly hugged Zhaohai's shoulders and introduced him to Jiang Yuzhen.

Zhaohai hugged his fists and saluted, and he was related.

"Li Zhaohai's ship line Li Zhaohai to see Commander Jiang!"

"Hahaha...... Mr. Li, don't be polite, I have already heard Jinghuai say that you and his classmates are friendly, you don't have to be polite to see you today, there are no outsiders here! ”

Zhao Haizhan trembled and agreed, but in his heart he was galloping, and he wanted to change the purpose of this meeting.

Jiang Yuzhen gave up Zhaohai to his seat very enthusiastically, and withdrew the idlers and others, and there were only three of them in the whole room, talking to each other, but they had their own thoughts.

Jiang Yuzhen smiled and spoke first: "Mr. Li, Staff Officer Shu has already told me about the operation of Li's ship, and you must also know the purpose of your trip. At present, the invading powers are eyeing each other, and the fortunes of the country are in danger, do we citizens have to try our best to share the worries of the country? Jiang Yuzhen was so open and honest that he raised the matter to the national level, and his purpose was to make Li Zhaohai have no way out and was powerless to refute.

When Zhaohai heard this, he understood that the matter was coming, and the time for bloodless soldiers had come. He turned to face Jiang Yuzhen, and said with a straight and respectful face: "Commander Jiang, Zhaohai admires you very much for your heart of fist for the country and benevolence for the people. Brother Jinghuai also informed the pros and cons of the matter, and after that, I also thought about it for a long time, and I was worried that there would be any mistakes, just to be able to take this matter through. ”

Zhaohai sincerely told all the attitudes, thoughts, and difficulties before doing this matter, and finally made up his mind:

"Commander, our Li family has been running the shipping industry for three generations, and in the past hundred years, we have always followed the rules and never dared to go beyond the rules. Now the commander wants to requisition the ship for military use, and I, a son and daughter of China, can do my best to repay the country. But now the Li family is full of women and children, with no one to rely on, and it is difficult to maintain it only by the strength of the next person, and they really have no ability to dare to commit the realm of jackals, tigers and leopards! Please Commander Haihan, have mercy on the hardships of your family and your family! After Zhaohai finished speaking, he fell to the ground on his knees, bowing his head and begging.

This stumped the battle-hardened killing general, and it seemed that Li Zhaohai had made a decision in his heart before he came here. If he is forced to do so, he will be resentful, and he will leave a calamity for the future development of the situation. If he asks for it, where does the prestige of the military department exist, do you want him to bow his head and give in to the common people? As far as Jiang Yuzhen is concerned, he will not be reconciled!

Shu Jinghuai's expression couldn't help but panic, he bent his head and rolled his eyes, trying to come up with a coping strategy in his mind. Jiang Yuzhen paced with his hands in his hands, silent.

He suddenly stood still, pointed at Li Zhaohai, and shouted: "I see that you are simply toasting and not eating and drinking!" Come! With a shout, the guards guarding outside the door broke into the door with a "hula", only to see Jiang Yuzhen with an angry face: "Take down such a traitor who doesn't know what to do and rebels against the country!" ”

As soon as the words fell, Li Zhaohai was tied by the guards and pressed on the spot.

Sure enough, it's faster than turning a book! Seeing the situation, Zhao Hai was even more glad of his inner decision, if he could exchange his life for the safety of the whole family, it would be worth it to die. If you accept their request, if something happens along the way, I am afraid that it will cause disaster to the family.

"Commander!" Shu Jinghuai saw that Jiang Yu was really anxious, so he hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Commander, stop your anger, Zhaohai is a businessman who doesn't understand the rules of officialdom, and he angered the commander." Why don't I talk to him again and ask the commander for permission. ”

Jiang Yuzhen's face was gloomy, and a fierce look flashed in his bright eyes, which was fleeting. He walked into Zhaohai, looked at him with a low brow arrogantly, and saw that Zhaohai was sweating and looked frightened, Jiang Yuzhen sighed, nodded and said, "Okay, you talk." After speaking, Jiang Yuzhen walked away with his head held high, and several guards followed out.

Shu Jinghuai pulled Zhaohai up from the ground, and said: "Zhaohai, I never thought that you would dare to refuse so bluntly, do you know that if you don't give face to the commander like this, you are really a dead end!" ”

Zhao Hai rubbed his knee that was tendered by the guard, and said silently: "During this period of time, my family and I have rotated into the cell several times. Brother Jinghuai, do you know that under the wind of this world, ordinary people have a difficult way to live, do you know? Zhao Hai's eyes were red as he spoke, and his voice was choked.

Shu Jinghuai was embarrassed, after all, he was trying to show his merit in front of the commander, so he made a plan to use the Zhaohai ship to smuggle arms for military supplies, and now he was with Jiang Yuzhen's ambition to conquer the territory and dominate Yuegui.

Shu Jinghuai snorted: "Of course I know, it's just ...... It's just that...... Have you ever thought about it, the world is ups and downs, and good birds must choose trees to perch on! If a person or a family does not have a strong backer, it is like building a building on driftwood, and if the wind blows, the building will surely collapse. ”

The two were talking when there was a knock on the door: "Report!" Someone from outside wanted to see Mr. Lai. ”

Zhaohai looked at Shu Jinghuai in a panic, and Shu Jinghuai rushed to the door and said, "Who wants to see Mr. Li?" ”

"He said his surname was Qin."

"It's Uncle Qin! Jinghuai, there must be something important at home, otherwise he wouldn't have found here. Zhao Hai grabbed Shu Jinghuai's arm and called.

Shu Jinghuai looked at Zhaohai's pleading expression, and said to the door, "Let him in!" ”

"Yes!" The guard replied.

"Thank you, Jinghuai." At this time, Zhaohai's heart was beating non-stop.

After a while, the guards led Qin Bo in, and when he saw Zhaohai, he knelt on the ground with a thud and cried: "Young Master, something happened to the ship, the boat is ...... The boat line is on fire......"

"What! You repeat! Zhaohai couldn't believe it.

"The boat is on fire!" Qin Bo sobbed.

Zhao Hai only felt that after the "buzzing" of his brain, he couldn't hear any sound, he only felt that his eyes were dark, and his body was paralyzed and fainted.

Since Zhaoshen came to Foshan, he wanted to go to the Huwei Martial Arts Pavilion to learn art, but Xia Fengchun, the owner of the Martial Arts Pavilion, was a person who particularly believed in metaphysics. Coincidentally, on the day when Zhaoshen came to the martial arts hall for the first time to learn art, he met Xia Fengchun's concubine who had a difficult birth, and finally ended up with a corpse and two lives. Xia Fengchun listened to Mr. Feng Shui's assertion that "Nanyan brings evil", and heard that Li Zhaoshen, who had just come here, happened to come from Nansha, so he calculated this account on Zhaoshen's head. Xia Fengchun not only drove him out of the martial arts hall, but also spread the word to the martial arts people from all over the world that Li Zhaoshen was a foreign spy who infiltrated Foshan, which once made Zhaoshen have no fixed place to live and was embarrassed.

Later, Zhaoshen met Sunan who went to Sanshui County to take the exam, and decided to apply for the patrol room with him, after passing the interview and written test, the next step was actual combat training, and the two of them both entered the Sanshui County Military Training Camp, and joined the Sanshui County Patrol Room together after graduating with excellent results.

As for the many changes in the Li family, Zhao Hai did not mention it in the letter at all in order to make Zhao Shen feel at ease. Until he was coerced by Shu Jinghuai and others, Zhaohai was worried that Zhaoshen would be persecuted outside, so he arranged for the second brother Zhaonong to leave Nansha overnight to find the third brother Zhaoshen, and told them to be careful of the people in the military department.

Who is Xu Manyun? That's for later. However, the person who Zhao Hai can entrust his brother to at the time of life and death must be the person he believes in.
