Chongwen fell asleep, and in his dream it was still a dark and dreary sea, with no moonlight, no starlight, and a violent storm outside, and the Bloodbird ship was jolting violently. Chongwen and Nonghime ignored it completely, lingering in the cabin, and the fiery passion burned in their bodies. Suddenly, a frightened shout came from outside: "Dakang Sailor is here, the whole ship is on alert, ready to fight, fight with them... ”

Chongwen jumped up, grabbed the knife in one hand and put on his clothes in the other. Nonghime hugged him tightly, the fresh fragrance made him feel refreshed, and the hand holding the knife was weak. Nonghime said sternly in his ear: "Live, no matter how difficult it is, live to change history for me, I like your new era... ”

Chongwen was ruthless, pushed Nohime down on the couch, grabbed the scabbard and rushed out of the cabin. In the midst of the storm, only the drums were heard like thunder, shouting to kill and shake the sky, and there were enemies on all sides, but the enemy ships in the darkness could not be seen.

Suddenly, there was a loud bang, and a cluster of orange fire flashed a hundred paces away from the port side, and the heavy artillery of the enemy ship opened fire. The gunner of the Dakang Water Division hit too accurately, and Chongwen really felt that death roared towards him in the dark.

Ah~ah~ah~

Suddenly opened his eyes and sat up, desperate cries still swirling in his mind, cold sweat oozing out of his back, and he was uncomfortable. In the dark, a small body touched up and hugged his neck, the little girl's body fragrance made people feel warm and comfortable, Hanako's lips attached to his ear, and whispered: "Sea samurai. Dream.. Terrible. ”

Chongwen was stunned for a while, then patted Hanako's back, put her beside her, and said softly: "Hold the lamp, serve the pen and ink, I want to write an important letter." ”

A peaceful night passed, the sun rose, some people left, some people came, like a merchant's book, there will always be in and out.

The people who went went quietly were silent, but the people who came were fanfare, because the people who came were the largest wealthy family in Mulou County in the north and south, the general of the naval army on the east and south coasts of Kishu, and the governor of the Nine Ghost Clan, Nine Ghosts Takashi.

With the loan from Ryuo Island, the strength of the Kumano Navy has increased by more than one notch, not only in the fact that he has more ships and more sailors, but also in every small aspect.

For example, the 20 personal retainers he brought are now also called Ma Huizhong. These guys are dressed in real armor, wearing iron helmets, riding the finest Kiso horses in the country, with black mother's clothes behind them, surrounded by the red horse mark of the Nine Ghosts, and they live like big roosters.

The Nine Ghosts Jialiang accompanied Chongwen to play Go in the main hall, and the retainers reported that the Nine Ghosts Longliang had arrived. As soon as Chongwen stood up, the Nine Ghosts Longliang broke in, and he must ask Chongwen to be in the main seat, insisting on the next salute, and Chongwen can only follow him.

A small sedan chair was carried into the back house, and her own mother-in-law bathed and changed clothes for the 5-year-old girl Ah Chun. The elders of the village and the people of Longwang Island also came to the Jialiang Mansion, and there were a lot of congratulatory gifts, which were piled up in the main hall of the mansion, which was spectacular. The ceremony of recognizing the woman was also very grand, in the main hall of Jialiang Mansion, Chai Demei served as the master of ceremonies and concurrently served as the interpreter.

According to the Chinese ceremony, Ah Chun obediently kowtowed to Chongwen and served tea. Chongwen received Ah Chun's salute, took out a pair of golden locks and hung them around Ah Chun's neck, and said softly: "Ah Chun, from now on, you are the daughter of my Dragon King Island, and I am very happy for my father, but you can't forget the grace of the Nine Ghost Family, can you remember?"

Ah Chun replied respectfully: "Yes!"

This little girl has a delicate face, a pair of black eyes are clear and bright, showing a childish brilliance, partial and well-behaved. The people of Longwang Island also liked it, and they all praised and congratulated them from the bottom of their hearts. Nine Ghost Longliang saw that Ah Chun was loved and would never be discriminated against on Dragon King Island, and his heart was sad and happy.

Chongwen asked Hanako to wait for the pen and ink, pondered for a moment, and wrote two words on a piece of snow-white paper: Yanchun. Then he looked at the little girl and said, "My father gave you a new name: Yanchun, do you know what this means?"

The little girl bowed and said, "Thank you for your father's name, but I don't know what it means." ”

Chongwen said: "Spring, it was born by your biological father, to show that you will not forget your biological parents. Yan is a Kang word, which has the meaning of wisdom and skill, and also has the meaning of beauty and warmth. As a father, I hope you have a beautiful heart and a pair of diligent and thrifty hands, which is the most valuable woman's virtue. ”

Yanchun saluted again and said, "Yanchun has written it down, and I will never forget my father's teachings today." ”

Chongwen nodded and said: "Being a father also has something to do with you, my father's life experience is very rough and dangerous, and I can't tell your family's surname now." But when you grow up and get married, your father will tell you everything about your family, and then you will know the glory of your ancestors, and you will definitely be proud of your surname. ”

Yeonchun said, "Even if she doesn't have a surname, her daughter is proud of her father. ”

Chai Demei's face was surprised to translate, and everyone in the hall was amazed, a 5-year-old girl can say such heroic words, it is really unusual.

Chongwen laughed and said to the Nine Ghosts Longliang: "Brother Longliang, it's really difficult for you to raise such a good daughter, I must be the pearl of my palm." ”

Nine Ghost Longliang bowed down and said, "His Royal Highness Da Chuhai has no way to repay the kindness of the Nine Ghost Family. Pulled Yanchun, gave a few more instructions, and then asked the little girl to sit behind Chongwen and wait, and ordered a banquet to be held in the main hall.

With yesterday's wine, today's banquet is still very cheerful, without madness and heat, but with more warmth and warmth. At this point, Takabun truly believed that the Kumano Naval Army was a force that he could rely on, and that the Kii Suido was actually under the control of Ryuo Island, and in time, it would inevitably completely overwhelm the Hosokawa Naval Army and march into Osaka Bay.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Nine Ghosts Longliang suddenly said: "Your Highness Dachuhai, do you know something?"

Chongwen asked, "What's the matter?"

Nine Ghost Takashi said: "Kayama Shihisa is recruiting troops and horses in Fangjin, gathering a large number of Ariakekai, Omurawan and Higo, Satsuma, and Hyuga pirates, and also taking in a lot of outlaws from Kyushu, planning to take advantage of the northwest wind in winter, hundreds of boats, to Kangdi to loot a lot, in order to survive the spring famine. He sent someone to contact me, and there was a Hosokawa navy on my side, so how dare I leave Kishu, but I didn't agree. ”

Chongwen slapped the bamboo chopsticks on the food table, and said with an unhappy face: "I said that he was a fool in the past, and now I still say that, I really don't know how naïve he is, and he actually had this idea." ”

The Nine Ghosts asked puzzledly, "Could it be that the Huashan family's move is inappropriate?"

Chongwen smiled bitterly: "It's not just inappropriate, he's going to die." ”

Nine Ghost Longliang swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said: "He has gathered 5 or 6 thousand people, as well as a few Daguan ships, all of them are pirates who have accumulated years, not to mention that there will be a catch, and it is always not difficult to retreat." ”

Chongwen sighed and said, "It seems that you are also a fool, you think that you can cross the sea with your keelless ship? The higher and bigger the ship, the higher the center of gravity, and the faster it turns, do you believe that they have that good luck, there are no strong winds and waves on the 2,000-mile sea route?"

Nine Ghost Longliang frowned and said, "We people have never been deep into the open sea, and we don't know the horror of the ocean. His Royal Highness said, I remembered, those ships that sailed to Kangguo... Most of them are purchased from Dakang's ocean-shading boats. From this point of view, isn't Lord Zijiu more than lucky?"

Chongwen sneered: "It's not just that there is more luck than luck, but there is no luck." He now thinks it is a tailwind, but the wind direction at sea is certain, and it is common for him to change five times a day, once he encounters a headwind, I see how he comes back. What's more, even if he arrives in Dakang, he will also give the head of the Dakang sailor, does he think that Dakang is one of those maritime merchants?"

Nine Ghost Longliang said: "Of course, Dakang is the upper kingdom of the Celestial Empire, but there are always times when you don't watch out, and in the past, there were pirates from the Qi Kingdom who came to Dakang to loot and then came back alive." ”

Chongwen laughed loudly, and suddenly burst into laughter, and asked in a deep voice, "What do you think of my bird boat on Dragon King Island?"

Nine Ghost Longliang said with envy: "The big sea ship is a god's warship. ”

Chongwen said coldly: "This ship is the smallest far-sea warship among the Dakang Sailors, and its big ship is like a mountain. Like this kind of bird ship, there are no less than 10,000 guards along the coast of Dakang, and there are thousands of large ships, all of which are equipped with artillery. I can run rampant in the seas of Dongqi with one bird boat, do you really want to face thousands of cannon salvos?

You said that the boat also came back, and maybe it did. But it was a two-ship, and when it came to the coast of Dakang, it took advantage of Dakang's unpreparedness to loot several fishing villages, and escaped the pursuit by luck, and the life was purely picked up.

The city of Dakang is not a city, it is a city around Muzha. Kangcheng is rammed earth bricks, the city is more than 2 zhang high, and the city foundation is 8 zhang. The city wall can run horses, densely packed with cannons, weighing thousands of pounds, and the power is 10 times that of my bird ship cannon.

There is not a single one left of the fool who will be killed as soon as he arrives at the offshore sea, even if a few are lucky enough to land, do you think they can conquer the fortified city of Dakang?"

With a snap, the bamboo chopsticks fell to the ground, and the nine ghosts Longliang was already frightened, and his soul flew out of the sky, and the bamboo chopsticks landed before he knew it. He really couldn't imagine that there was such a powerful kingdom in the world, how could this be good?

After a long time, the Nine Ghosts came back to his senses, and still asked with some puzzlement: "But the Songpu Party plundered Qili in the north and Dakang in the south, and there were more successes and fewer failures, why is this?"

Liu Guan sneered and said: "That's because with the help of the Kang merchants of Hirado, do you think that without Dakang's foreign fleet, the Songpu Party would have been able to reach the Dakang coast? If it weren't for the Kang people's familiarity with every inch of the coast, the Songpu Party would definitely have run into the Dakang cannon and come back alive? You only saw the Songpu Party return with a full load, but you didn't see what kind of allies the people had, did you have them?"

Nine Ghost Longliang's face became more and more pale, and he said softly: "Your Highness Da Chuhai, Zijiu is not disrespectful to the Heavenly Empire. He heard that the shogunate and the Great Kang had joined forces to make it difficult for the Great Expedition to the sea in Sakai Castle. If he wreaks havoc in Dakang, Dakang and the shogunate will have a disagreement, and His Royal Highness Dachuhai will be much more comfortable in the country. ”

Chongwen said lightly: "You don't have to cover it up for him, he must have that mind, and he won't be mixed up like this bird." He is just a lucky person, taking the loan from Longwang Island and wanting to do a big ticket, and he will become a fat man in one bite. But he doesn't have the power, nor the mind, nor the ... Knowledge. ”

Nine Ghost Longliang looked at Chongwen and stumbled and asked, "So... Then His Highness will watch Zijiu die?"
