Zhixian: "The characteristics of the sand boat are flat head and flat bottom, square bow width, multi-mast and multi-sail, shallow draft, stable driving, suitable for sailing in places with shallow water and many beaches. However, because the bottom of the sand boat is shallow, it cannot resist drift and is not suitable for deep-sea navigation. The sand boat first appeared in the Chongming sand area in the Southern Song Dynasty, so it was named 'Chongming sand boat'. Now the ships I carry are all sand boats. Cargo ships along the coastal areas of the river are also sand ships. ”

Zhu Bai said: "Listen to what you mean, is the sand ship not suitable for being a war ship?" ”

The magistrate replied: "Your Highness doesn't know anything. According to the records in the "History of the Song Dynasty and the Military System", at the beginning of the Jianyan Dynasty, Li Gang invited the two armies of sailors to be placed in the Jiang, Huai, and Hemarshal's Mansions, and its warships had the names of loach, water sentry horses, double chariots, victories, etc., which were all sand boats. ”

Zhu Bai nodded slightly: "Okay, since you know so well, this king is relieved." ”

The people spontaneously went to the sea to retrieve the charred corpses of the pirates, dug a big pit and buried them.

It's not that they can't bear it, it's just that the corpses floating on the sea are too ugly, and it also prevents the fishermen from going out to sea to fish.

And the corpses washed on the shore to rot and stink can also cause a plague.

Without waiting for the county to speak, a large household paid for it, and a stone tablet was customized to stand on the side of the huge tomb, engraved in red lacquer: "On April 15, the tenth year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty, two hundred and forty-seven Japanese robbers were buried here, and those who dare to come will not be spared!" ”

In order to let Lao Zhu support him to buy a boat for the coastal county town to train the navy, Zhu Bai specially wrote a letter to report on the extermination operation.

Lao Zhu was excited when he saw it, and then ordered someone to read this recital upwards as soon as possible.

The mood of the officials is different.

The military attachés were enthusiastic: Burn well, special mother, these gangs are like rats, and they come up from time to time to do something. The navy can't do anything about them, and they can't fight them. I can't catch up.

The civil servants were drenched in cold sweat and frightened.

This Zhu Bai is too terrifying.

More than 200 people were burned to death in a single fire.

This is a living "little Hades".

Lao Zhu and the other eunuchs finished reading, and laughed: "We burned Chen Youliang's boat on Poyang Lake back then, and now our son is burning the Japanese in Ninghai." It's really a son inheriting his father's business, and it's very happy. ”

Liu Bowen was listed: "The king of Xiang is so vicious at a young age, and he will definitely harm the world in the future." ”

Lao Zhu blurted out in a scolding voice: "Fart." ”

It's just that when it was reported that Zhu Biao had completely annihilated their Japanese invaders at the Maoshan Inn, they praised Zhu Biao's bravery.

The same is to exterminate the Japanese invaders, Zhu Bai used the least effort to achieve the best effect, how did he become vicious.

The secretary of the military department couldn't listen to it anymore, and went out to salute Lao Zhu, and then squinted at Liu Bowen: "The soldiers who surrender without a fight are also the good ones." Lord Liu is good at the art of war, and he was also the emperor's adviser, how could he forget this?! Could it be that there are still fewer people who died indirectly at the hands of Lord Liu? ”

Lao Zhu's heart was clear. Liu Bowen deliberately belittled Zhu Bai, but he just saw Zhu Bai's talent and was afraid that he would threaten Zhu Biao.

But you can't be so shameless.

Liu Bowen didn't feel embarrassed at all, and replied calmly: "Because King Xiang is not the emperor's general, he is a vassal king." ”

Lao Zhu sneered: "Our son just wants to be able to fight." We just want Biao'er's younger brothers to help him guard the frontier, and the sea frontier is also counted. My sons are all good at land warfare, and now there is one who can fight water battles, shouldn't I be glad that there is one? ”

Although we know that Zhu Bai used a strategy this time, it is still far from the good water war.

But the more Liu Bowen wants to step on Zhu Bai, the more we want to praise him.

Others bully our son like this, it's just not okay!!

Zhu Biao couldn't listen to it anymore, and came out and said, "Father." The twelve brothers are brave and resourceful, and they will not hurt me, and one soldier and one general will annihilate the Japanese Kou, which is really a blessing for the court and the people of the world. The son implored his father to reward the twelve brothers. ”

The generals and some civil officials also came out and said: "Please ask the emperor to reward the king of Xiang." ”

Everyone understands it too well.

Those who have made meritorious contributions will not be rewarded, and they will be scolded, this is the crooked trend in the court!!

If you don't stop it immediately, who will dare to fight in the future, and who will dare to do practical things?

Liu Bowen knew that he was a little anxious and offended the anger of the public, so he could only say: "It's the ministers who are too worried." ”

Lao Zhu saw that Liu Bowen was soft, and his heart was too happy, and said: "Come and order the coastal state capitals and counties." Fengtian carried the emperor, and the edict said, telling the people, prepare knives, these guys are coming, kill them, and then talk about it. The king of Xiang has merit, and he will be rewarded again when he comes back. Chin this. ”

This is tantamount to agreeing to Zhu Bai's suggestion to train the villagers to defend against the Japanese invaders.

When Zhu Bai came out of Ninghai, the people said goodbye.

Zhang Yu said: "Although His Royal Highness has never made a name for himself, the people still know it in their hearts. ”

Zhu Bai smiled and didn't say anything.

False names don't do anything for him.

However, I am still very happy to be sent off like this.

Being liked and respected is, after all, a good thing.

-----

Coming out of Ninghai, Zhu Bai urged the coastal counties to strengthen coastal defense all the way, and also told the third-level bureaus to assist the counties, not to feel sorry for the money, and to take a long-term view.

It took me a full month to get to Fuzhou.

The Fujian commander went to the city gate to welcome Zhu Bai in, and when Zhu Bai sat down, he first bowed respectfully to Zhu Bai.

Zhu Bai squinted and asked, "You made a big mistake?" If it's a big thing, it's useless to worship this king, this king can't save you. ”

The commander couldn't cry or laugh, and said, "Where is the King of Xiang?" How dare a minister commit a crime? The minister wanted to thank King Xiang for proposing to the emperor to let the son of the military general and meritorious man enter the country to study. Wechen's two sons have been studying in Guozijian since last month. ”

Zhu Bai suddenly realized and nodded slightly: "Oh, that's good." ”

Then Zhu Bai began to ask the political envoy about the official school.

Fuzhou has had a tradition of taking the imperial examination since ancient times.

Lu Zuqian of the Southern Song Dynasty wrote poems to lament Fuzhou's enthusiasm for the imperial examination: "The road meets ten guests and nine young people, half of them are compatriots and old brothers, and they remember the quiet lights of the city bridge, and the sound of reading in the south and north of the lane." ”

Therefore, Fuzhou has done very smoothly in both township and provincial schools.

Political envoy Zuo Bu said: "His Royal Highness's official tooth bureau assisted us in the survey of private houses in Fuzhou City, and also found a good place for running official schools. Thank you, Your Highness. ”

Zhu Bai nodded slightly: "The profits handed over to you by the Guanya Bureau, you can use them on the blade." ”

The left and right political envoys hurriedly saluted: "Your Highness rest assured." ”

Zhu Bai said, "In this case, go and do your business." This king will also work. ”

He went to the first-level official tooth bureau, checked the accounts, and listened to the report of the tooth chief, so he asked the tooth chief: "This king asked you to make a fortune boat, how are you doing?" ”

The tooth chief said, "The villain has built a dock according to the orders of His Highness. I invited a famous local craftsman. Now seven or eight boats, large and small, have been built. ”

Zhu Bai said repeatedly: "Go and see, go and see." ”

In fact, everyone muttered in their hearts.

Now that the emperor has ordered the sea to be banned, what is it to spend so much silver to build ships?
