A harvest battle triggered by the search for people quickly entered the final stage, Zou Run did not dare to delay for too long, he personally presided over the shipyard's "packaging business", and ordered the sea ship to sail back to Dangji Island to move a large army.

It was not easy to swallow the entire shipyard in one gulp, except for the experienced craftsmen, all the tools and fine timber in it could not be left behind, and of course, the shipyard owner's household assets must also be taken away.

Laizhou is not Dengzhou, and there is no way to mobilize the soldiers and horses of the Dengyunzhai headquarters to carry it, so he has to order Dangji Island to leave the necessary defensive forces, and all other people and ships come here.

At noon the next day, Ruan Xiaoqi arrived at the beach with more than 400 sailors and two 800-gauge boats, two medium-sized boats of 400 materials, and two 200-gauge saury boats.

With the addition of this new force, a shipyard was emptied in only half a day, and it quickly returned to the sea after a cart pulling horses and carrying them on their shoulders.

Sixty or seventy skilled craftsmen, hundreds of precious pieces of wood that could be used as keels of ships, and a large quantity of tools and money were harvested, and even the two large ships of eight hundred materials and a small boat that had been built in the dockyard and were waiting for the ship's owner to deliver them were all taken away.

Due to the large number of things, each ship was full of people and supplies, and the new ships of all sizes had to be controlled by men, and the return journey was extremely slow, and some things inevitably went wrong during the process, causing losses of people and property.

To be honest, such a large-scale operation, such a vast fleet, sailing near the sea without sufficient force to escort it, is too risky.

Fortunately, the cold has not disappeared at the moment, and the wind is blowing everywhere, and it is too cold, whether it is the state and county government on land, or the Pinghai and Chenghai armies on the sea, or the swordfish patrol village responsible for catching smuggling salt in the coastal sea, the cat is heating in the house camp for the winter in the cold winter, and Zou Run blocked the entire town with cavalry during the operation, and did not release a person to go out to report the news, which is a dangerous retreat.

It wasn't until Zou Run, who really stepped on the land of Dangji Island and had been hanging on his heart, that he breathed a sigh of relief, and glanced at Ruan Xiaoqi, who was also sweating all the way, and teased and admonished each other:

"Soldiers can only make dangerous moves once, and it is advisable to plan and move later, and it is important to be safe."

"What the owner of the village said is that I am both happy and scared all the way, and my heart is like tying seven or eight buckets, for fear that there will be a fleet of officials somewhere, and I will not hide it from the owner of the village, and most of my clothes are soaked with sweat......

Both of them have a sense of prostration, and the eldest brother doesn't talk about the second brother.

But when I saw the crowded and lively situation on the dock of my island, I couldn't help but smile.

It's really a good opportunity not to be missed, and by taking this risk, the cottage has the ability to build its own warship, and it won't be stuck by the shortage of warships in the short term.

But after this experience, the fleet of Dangji Island will also be completely exposed to the government's field of vision, after all, after staying in Laizhou for so long, both the people on land and the fishermen at sea have seen it with their own eyes.

Next, if you want to make a lot of money like before, I'm afraid that you can't do it, after all, the Northern Song Dynasty has not yet arrived at Jingkang, and there is such a major event in the jurisdiction of the local government, so it is impossible to pretend not to see it. The government's crusade is inevitable, and all that remains is the specific time and scale of the crusade.

Realizing this, in order to make the cottage shipyard build and put into operation as soon as possible, Zou Run ordered to clarify Meng Kang as the twelfth leader of the cottage, and stayed on Dangji Island for more than half a month, insisting on personal guidance every day.

Unconsciously, the time officially came to the second and a half months of the lunar calendar, which is the cloud in He Zhizhang's "Yongliu" in the Tang Dynasty: "I don't know who cut out the thin leaves, the spring breeze in February is like scissors", the cold has slowly faded on Dangji Island, and the temperature and sea breeze are warming.

A round of bright sunshine, Zou Run refused Ruan Xiaowu, Ruan Xiaoqi and Meng Kang's send-off on the dock, these three people were busy all day long, recruitment, training, and shipbuilding were not easy jobs, Zou Run was not a person who paid attention to vulgar etiquette, he asked for two large, two small and four ships alone, and then embarked on the road back to Dengyun Cottage with seven or eight entourages.

It is rumored that officials from Laizhou and Dengzhou have begun to exchange official documents, discussing the matter of conquest and suppression of pirates, and it is estimated that after the two sides have completed the coordination, they will report to the Shuai Si and Xian Si on Jingdong Road for decision.

After learning the news, Zou Run was deeply grateful, thanks to the fact that he did not play the banner of Dengyun Mountain when he was in Laizhou, but acted as a group of pirates, in order to avoid being besieged by the government at sea and on land at the same time.

Recently, as the temperature in the coastal areas has risen, the shadow of government ships has frequently appeared around Dangji Island, and there is no doubt that this is a preliminary glimpse of the enemy's situation. Therefore, Dangji Island has officially entered a state of combat readiness, strictly guarding against the enemy coming from the sea, Zou Run did not dare to return to the mountain as casually as before, but was forced to light four warships to accompany him, just in case.

As the saying goes, there is nothing wrong with being careful, even after making a lot of adequate preparations, Zou Run still ordered a big circle, and after making sure that the "little tail" behind was completely shaken off, the small fleet slowly entered a state of slow sailing along the coastline, looking for islands to anchor.

On the way back to the mountain this time, Zou Run has one more thing to do, and that is to set up a new transfer station.

The reason for this is that the number of people on the island has increased dramatically, and under the vigorous play of Er Ruan, nearly 500 fishermen have been recruited in just half a month, and the rapid increase in personnel means that supplies must be replenished, from food and clothing to needles and threads, all of which need to be transported back and forth from land.

And since there was not much timber on the island, the necessary coal alone would have to take up the load of a large ship.

In this way, the original way of supplying materials must also be changed, and it is not possible to take the shortcut of the previous small fishing village, which will completely expose the village of Dengyun Mountain. After thinking about it, Zou Run decided to find a suitable place on the sea to set up a transfer station, so that it would be safe enough.

Fortunately, the hard work pays off, there are still a lot of large and small islands in the coastal area of the Shandong Peninsula, and it is a little difficult to get an island that can live hundreds of people, but it is really not a big problem to find an island that is simply unloaded and transshipped, and it is not a big problem to dangle in the offshore area for a long time, Zou Run secretly swore while looking for it, and when his own naval army becomes stronger and bigger, and becomes a veritable navy, he must completely uproot the Pinghai and Chenghai armies from the Bohai Sea region and completely erase them, and then this sea area will be his territory. He can go as far as he wants on the boat of Yunshan Mountain, and he will no longer be affected by this nest.

Secretly cheered up in his heart, and saw several islands in a row, and finally Zou Run decisively chose a small island sandwiched between two small islands as a transit station.

After all, it is better to have two small islands outside as a cover, than a lonely island on the sea. After finding the island, Zou Run left two boats, one large and one small, to make preliminary preparations for construction, and he took the other two boats to prepare to find a suitable place to dock.
