On the county seat of Xiangshan County, after receiving the beacon summons, he immediately became nervous.

The gates of the city were closed, and all the people in the city were at home and did not go out, and the streets were under martial law.

If you plan in advance, you won't be in chaos.

Princess Lin'an was not idle, she was the eldest daughter of the founding emperor, and she was also dressed in battle, wearing armor, and under the escort of Zhu Wu, she inspected all the nodes guarding the city.

Seeing the princess inspecting, whether it was the people who defended the city, or the sergeants of the Baihu Institute who assisted in the defense, or the reinforcements of the Guangdong Metropolitan Division, they were all extremely respectful.

On weekdays, the princess basically just stands behind the prefectural commander of the horse. But at the critical moment, with the dignity of his identity, he is also on the front line, how can he not admire?

However, Zhu Jingjing knew very well in his heart that Brother Fan was sniping at Haikou on the coastline with the main force, and basically nothing would happen in the county seat.

After the inspection, she looked south with some worry, and her heart was on Zhang Yifan.

Soon, there was a quick horse newspaper, and after revealing his identity, he put it into the city.

"What?" When Zhu Jingjing heard the announcement, she was shocked, "How can a horse go to the beach!" ”

However, Zhu Wu beside her was more calm, and immediately comforted: "It should be fine, Haikou, the rabble." With Qi Qianhu leading two thousand sergeants, and three thousand people working together, even if tens of thousands of pirates come ashore, it will not be enough to fight. Besides, Qi Qianhu must know the severity, and he won't let the horse take risks easily. It must be certain that he will agree to follow the colt. ”

Zhu Jingjing listened, although he felt that it made sense, but he was still not at ease, so he immediately demanded: "I will repair the book immediately, and immediately send someone to send a letter to Panyu County, as well as Guangzhou Prefecture, so that they can send reinforcements immediately." ”

Zhang Yifan's side had a plan in advance, and after confirming the attack of the Haikou Kou, he would directly send a messenger. However, she didn't feel at ease, and the fact that those people kept making tricks made her feel bottomless. Therefore, she had to urge again.

Zhu Wu listened, although he thought in his heart that it was unnecessary, with the strength of Xiangshan County, he would definitely be able to defeat the invading Haikou. However, since the princess wanted to do this, he had no need to object.

So, the messenger from Xiangshan County immediately galloped and went to ask for help.

The people in the city all stayed at home and prayed, hoping that the gods and Buddhas would appear and bless the county order to lead them to defeat the pirates who were killed by heaven.

For them, they had never experienced this before, and they were really worried.

In fact, Zhu Jingjing also experienced such a thing for the first time, and she was also worried in her heart. patrolling the city, looking calm, but always thinking about her brother Fan in his heart.

Don't you know that there is a fight on the beach? How many people are coming, and can they stop it?

Brother Fan, don't rush forward, hasn't he always been cowardly, he doesn't even dare to go to the execution site to execute prisoners, he will definitely hide behind and press the formation, right?

While she was thinking about it, she suddenly saw a fast horse galloping from the south.

Is it for help? The first time Zhu Jingjing saw it, it was such a thought.

If it's to report victory, it's impossible to be so fast in terms of time, right?

The soldiers and people at the head of the city were also the first to find out that the fast horses were coming. Many of the people who inspected couldn't help but stop, and they all looked at the fast horse, and their faces couldn't help but be a little worried!

However, to their great surprise, when they saw that the fast horse had come closer, they waved their hands and shouted loudly: "Reinforcements have arrived, reinforcements have arrived......"

When someone with sharp ears heard this, he was immediately surprised: "Why do I sound like I'm shouting that reinforcements have arrived?" Reinforcements to the south, so why can't we see it here in our county? ”

Others listened to it, and it was also very strange.

But after a while, the speed of the gallop was very fast, and more and more people heard it, and they couldn't help but say in surprise: "I heard it too, just shouting that reinforcements have arrived, that's right!" ”

Suddenly, an atmosphere of joy began to spread throughout the city. But in this joyful atmosphere, there are also some doubts.

Zhu Jingjing also heard it, and couldn't help but walk to the battlements, watching the fast horse get closer and closer.

The princess was surrounded by a crowd of people, and it was very obvious that the woman was wearing armor.

Of course, the fast horse saw it, so he galloped towards her, and without waiting to enter the city, he raised his face under the city, with full joy, and shouted loudly: "Your Royal Highness Princess, the reinforcements have arrived, it is His Royal Highness King Yan who led the sailors to arrive, and hundreds of warships ......"

Zhu Jingjing was overjoyed when she heard this, and said very excitedly: "It's really the fourth brother who has arrived, haha, the fourth brother has arrived." ”

Zhu Di is closest to her, and now when she needs it most, she is leading the sailor to arrive, and this joy is really incomparable.

In her excitement, she hurriedly turned her head and explained to the people around her: "Brother Fan wrote to my fourth brother early, and now he is finally here." Did you know? I still wrote that letter, hehe, the fourth brother is here! ”

Hearing that the princess was so happy to confirm this matter, the people around could be sure that His Royal Highness King Yan had led hundreds of warships to arrive. In this way, it is not more powerful than the sailors on the side of Guangdong Dusi. What pirates, that's all scum!

The doubts are gone, and all that remains is full of joy.

At the head of Xiangshan County, the tense atmosphere disappeared without a trace, and the atmosphere of joy began to permeate.

There was a team of people who were responsible for spreading the news, and they immediately rang the gong and walked on the streets of the county town to announce the good news.

"Bell Bell Bell ......"

"The reinforcements have arrived, and it is His Royal Highness King Yan who has led a huge sailor to arrive!"

"Bell Bell Bell ......"

"His Royal Highness King Yan's reinforcements have arrived, Xiangshan County is fine!"

“……”

Hearing this, the people who were hiding in their houses were very surprised.

Many of them don't know who His Royal Highness King Yan is? Isn't it amazing? However, they knew one situation, that is, the reinforcements had arrived, and Xiangshan County was safe!

As a result, the people of Xiangshan County walked out of the door one by one, first communicating with their neighbors, and then going to the streets one after another to communicate with more people.

At this time, they knew that the county commander had already contacted His Royal Highness King Yan, and His Royal Highness King Yan led the sailor to come to reinforcements.

After understanding this situation, everyone was smiling and laughing one by one.

The liveliness and festivity of the whole county are more lively and happy than any previous New Year's celebration!

"I said that the horse can't ask for a Guangdong sailor, so I'm not in a hurry at all, it turns out that I have already written to His Royal Highness King Yan!"

"Hmph, we don't have that bird water master at all, His Royal Highness King Yan's water master is a hundred times better than them!"

"What's wrong with Yongjiahou, we have His Royal Highness King Yan in our donkey!"

"I heard that the relationship between the horse and His Royal Highness King Yan is the best, and a mere Yongjiahou dares to bully our horse county order, I really don't know how thick the sky is!"

"Yes, if you want me to say, you have to give Na Yongjiahou a little bit of power!"

“……”

The happy people of Xiangshan County changed from a state of imminent war to a celebratory state, got rid of the worries in their hearts, and released their enthusiasm one by one, thinking of paying tribute to the heroic posture of His Royal Highness King Yan, and for a while, everyone, including Zhu Jingjing, forgot that they had sent a messenger for help before.

Here in Panyu County, the county magistrate was handling official business, and suddenly received a letter asking for help.

Don't say that he promised the order of the county of Luma, as far as it is concerned, Panyu County is next door to Xiangshan County, which is also a relationship between lips and teeth, so he immediately didn't say a word, and immediately summoned the people to prepare to reinforce Xiangshan County.

However, those squires in Panyu County did not have the same idea as him, but began to make things worse, not wanting too many people in Panyu County to reinforce Xiangshan County. It's better that Xiangshan County has been crippled by pirates, and that Pony County order is out.

That's all, the people who could have made up more than 1,000 people were only more than 500 in the end. This is still the result of Daotong's prestige as a county magistrate for so many years.

This bit of people and horses, no matter what, is not enough, Dao Tong asked people to beat the gong, and he personally rode a horse to shout.

"Xiangshan County has been hit by pirates, do you think pirates won't come to our Panyu County?"

"When the order of the county arrives in Xiangshan County, you can eat cheap salt, and you can go to Panyu County to work and make money, and you can grow sugarcane and sell it to Xiangshan County next year. Xiangshan County is good, you can all have benefits, did you forget it so quickly? ”

“……”

The gong was struck in front, and the county commander Daotong personally shouted, and along the way, the people who heard the movement all sounded. Many people, in the end, went out one after another, and finally joined the team of Minzhuang behind the county order.

Not only is the prestige of the county order, but also because Daotong has made it clear that there is a powerful relationship, although there are still timid and afraid of things, but more people have understood the importance of Xiangshan County to them.

If you want to live a good life, you can't let Xiangshan County have trouble.

In the end, Daotong led more than 1,500 people, dressed in various miscellaneous clothes and holding various weapons, to Xiangshan County.

………………

On the Guangzhou side of the government, because of his son's rebellion, Yongjiahou lost face, so he strictly controlled the army, and he was not allowed to order, and all the regular troops belonging to the imperial court were not allowed to be mobilized.

After the messenger came in a hurry, he naturally fed back to Yongjiahou as soon as possible.

When Zhu Liangzu heard this, he immediately sneered: "Hehe! Deserve! ”

Soldiers, no!

Of course, he definitely didn't reply like this, he just promised to come down and said that he would send troops, but he didn't order the troops at all, it was still just one word: drag!

His second son Zhu Yu was by his side, and when he saw his response, he reminded with some worry: "Dad, if there is anything bad about the horse, I am afraid that I will punish you, even if it is the prime minister, I may not be able to protect you!" ”

This Zhu Yu, in the original history, was killed because of his involvement in the Hu Weiyong case, and the Marquis of Yongjia was removed.

At this time, hearing his son's words, Zhu Liangzu immediately sneered: "Those pirates are just a rabble. With that Qi Xiang here, there won't be much of a problem, not to mention, that beast also sent a thousand elites without telling me. No matter how bad it is, those pirates won't be able to take the county seat! ”

Not to mention anything else, when it comes to fighting, Yongjiahou definitely has this vision.

When Zhu Yu heard this, he still said with some worry: "But if Xiangshan County is destroyed by pirates except for the county seat, then the horse will definitely go crazy, and he will also take a belly of resentment out of his father." ”

"Afraid of what?" When Zhu Liangzu heard this, he immediately reprimanded, "He is a concubine, I am a marquis, or I hold an iron coupon, as long as I don't commit rebellion, what can I do?" ”

Speaking of this, he said hatefully: "Give the face shameless things, just play prestige elsewhere, play Lao Tzu's head, just let him have a long memory, Lao Tzu is a marquis, not a cat or a dog!" ”

Hearing this, Zhu Yu remembered that his family had a good relationship with the prime minister, and even if it was in the court, there would definitely be many people to support it, so he didn't persuade him anymore.

As a result, not an hour later, the fast horse messenger from Xiangshan County arrived again.

After Zhu Liangzu found out, he was in a good mood: "Let him be arrogant, how about it, the matter is about to come to Lao Tzu's head, right?" ”

"There is no hair on the mouth, and it is really scared when you fight. What's ......?"

Listening to him vent, Zhu Yu asked, "Dad, then we should send troops?" ”

"What soldiers?" When Zhu Liangzu heard this, he said disapprerovingly, "Why do you want to send troops? ”

"......" Zhu Yu listened, a little dumbfounded, the horses came to beg twice, and they didn't send troops?

Seeing him like this, Zhu Liangzu was in a good mood at this time, so he said to his second son: "Asking for help twice means that the horse is scared." But again, the county seat is not so easy to be defeated. I'll just wait here, wait for the horse to come and beg Lao Tzu bitterly, and take the initiative to give in, and then Lao Tzu will send troops. Otherwise, Lao Tzu will take the cavalry and wait until the county seat is about to be breached! ”

Zhu Yu saw that his father had his own plans, so he didn't persuade him again. Anyway, in his opinion, he must not have his father!

………………

The two of them, father and son, probably never imagined that the horse at this time did not hide in the county town and tremble at all, but sat on the flagship, and was watching the sailor attack the pirate den with Zhu Di, the king of Yan.

It's really a coincidence, Ma Rujiang's side also chose this day, ate and drank spicy food with a group of pirate leaders, and set the principle of sharing the spoils, so he was ready to take a boat to kill Xiangshan County.

As a result, before they even had time to board the ship, countless official warships appeared on the sea.

Moreover, these official warships had already set up their positions, cut off the pirates' escape routes, and besieged them.

This scene made these pirates all stunned.

These imperial warships in front of them are not the Guangdong sailors they are afraid of at all.

Because they know how big the scale of the Guangdong Navy Division is and how strong its combat power is.

But the scale of the naval division in front of him is at least twice that of the Guangdong naval division, and they are all big ships that can fight at sea. You don't have to fight, even fools can see how strong this sailor is in front of you!

On the pirate side, although the scale is also large, it is a temporary union of many pirate forces. Zhu Liangzu said that they were a rabble, which was not wrong at all.

If these pirates go ashore to plunder and deal with ordinary people, even the people of the counties, it will be no problem.

If the difference in numbers is too great, you can even break your wrist with the army of the local guard.

But if they were to face the regular elite of the imperial court, it would not be possible to win by numbers at all.

No, just seeing the imperial court sailors appear on the sea, the various pirate forces didn't discuss with the host Ma Rujiang at all, and the first thing they reacted was to seize the road and flee first.

Their advantage is to rely on mobility to avoid the imperial court officials and soldiers, grab one in the east and one in the west, and then hide in the sea so that the court officials and soldiers cannot find it.

Fighting head-on is definitely the best choice for them.

However, according to Zhou Heizi's news, the sailors led by Zhu Di are the most elite sailors in the Ming Dynasty, and there are veterans like Jinghaihou who are proficient in naval warfare (nothing to do with Lanyu), so if he is prepared to fight unprepared, and if he can be escaped by pirates, Zhu Di is estimated to commit suicide by jumping into the sea.

Not to mention, there are Liu Datou and others among the pirates. As soon as the court officials and soldiers were killed, they immediately set fire to the island, creating chaos and further demoralizing the pirates.

Zhu Di's sailor warships approached, but only a row of artillery was placed, and the pirates' warships raised white flags and surrendered.

Moreover, the pirate's surrender made Zhu Di, who was full of interest and ready to show what he had learned in front of Zhang Yifan, feel bored.

The battle of the blue jade sea is not good, but as soon as the ship docks, it will be alive and well. He took Zhou Heizi and went ashore.

Zhu Di was not interested, so he was on the flagship and asked Zhang Yifan beside him: "You say, if you go back and fight with the regular sailors of the Wa Kingdom, will it be like this?" ”

As soon as he heard this, Zhang Yifan knew that Zhu Di really listened to his proposal to destroy the Japanese kingdom in three steps.

So, he smiled and said, "After all, the Japanese country is an island country, and their sailors are certainly not a little stronger than these pirates. You still have to train your troops well, and when you turn back and prove to your father that you don't need to spend too much manpower and material resources to destroy the Japanese sailors, then your father will probably agree to you to fight the Japanese country! ”

Speaking of this, he paused and added: "By the way, there are also Goryeo sticks, and you will lead the sailors to destroy them when you turn around, then you can go ashore anywhere and threaten any place in Goryeo." When the time comes, see if they are still honest or not! ”

Zhu Di smiled, he should have listened very comfortably, and asked Zhang Yifan: "Goryeo sticks?" ”

"Don't you think the Koryo stick is very smooth?" Zhang Yifan listened and replied casually.

"That's right, the Goryeo stick is really smooth, and the remnant Yuan eyebrows come and go, and they can't kill them!"

“……”

Wu Zhen, Marquis of Jinghai, was beside them, listening to these two princes and concubines talking, and was very shocked in his heart: it was really a hero who came out of a young man, and he didn't dare to think about it, and he could hear that these two had been planning for a long time!

There is hope for the future of Daming!

The pirates were easily exterminated, in fact, they were basically captured, and before evening, the sailor took the captives and returned to Xiangshan County in a mighty manner.

Zhou Heizi hugged his daughter-in-law, and Liu Datou's family, all standing on the deck, looking in the direction of Xiangshan County, their faces were full of expectations for the future.
