Li Xiao stood at the top of Guangzhou City, watching the peasants collecting the bodies of the dead. Next to him, Ruan Dacheng hunched over and hunched his neck, accompanying him like a pug. As long as Li Xiao pointed his finger, he would explain with a smile.

I have to say that Ruan Dacheng still has two brushes.

The city of Guangzhou, which was still in a panic in the morning, was once again bustling with people in the afternoon. People outside the city were everywhere watching the excitement, and the crowds looked like they were going to a market. Some smart people had already set up tea stalls and started cooking.

Business.

A standard southern stall, a cart with some stools hanging on it is all you need. You can order some wontons or sell some scones.

I just don’t know if the diners still have an appetite after looking at the corpses scattered on the floor.

Out of disgust for the strong men, the peasants who were summoned used hooks to pick up the bodies, throw them into the dug pits, and then pour kerosene on them and set them on fire.

The fire was not big at first, but when the human oil was refined, the flames became more and more intense. The three-foot-high flames rolled up thick smoke, and the smell of burning pig hair filled the air.

Li Xiao was so disgusted by the smell at the top of the city that he knew with his buttocks what would happen to the snack sellers. Some people have enough brains, but their brains are not reliable.

"In this battle, the Zhuang people lost at least two thousand elite men. The Dongman chieftain must be under much less pressure!"

"Huh! Your kid's good plan leaves more than a thousand elites. It's not too much, but it's definitely not enough. If Dongman wants to eat it, he has to use up his skills. If you want to say that you are a bad guy, then

That's really bad." Chen Fu covered his nose with a handkerchief and spoke in a very nasal voice.

"Shaoguan will be in chaos in the future. If the imperial court seizes the opportunity to send troops, it will definitely be able to take back Shaoguan from the hands of the barbarians. Even if the land passage from Guangdong to the north is opened, we Han merchants will no longer have to be exploited by the barbarians.

.I have to thank Mr. Li for this move.

Ruan, the Han people of Guangdong, is grateful for your kindness. To show the gratitude of the people of Guangdong, Ruan will build a shrine for you next to the government office." Ruan Dacheng had the most sincere smile on his face, as if he was not like this.

It cannot represent his grateful heart.

A living temple! Li Xiao immediately thought of the famous Nine Thousand Years Old man. During those years when he was a demon, his living shrines were all over the land of China. Now Ruan Dacheng wants to build a living shrine for himself. Is this damning thing about praising me or harming me?

We know that when Chongzhen executed Wei Zhongxian, it was a major crime to erect a shrine.

"There is no need for such a thing as a shrine! Now that the governor is dead, the chief envoy has just been worried about you. You are the biggest in Guangzhou, and it is serious to take care of the ground in Guangzhou. Stop doing these frivolous things, and you should be a real person."

Li Xiao stroked the city wall with his hand. He didn't like the smell of burnt pig hair either.

"Master Li is not frivolous at a young age, and he will become a great person in the future. Ruan is willing to attach himself to your tail and swear allegiance to you to the death." Ruan Dacheng arched his body, looking like he was being taught.

"That's serious! I, Li, always only put six words in the envelope. Listen to what he says and watch what he does! Prepare the money. I will leave for the north tomorrow. When I go to the capital, I can't pay for it!"

"The money has been prepared and will be delivered to your Lordship's ship tonight." From the beginning to the end, the smile on Ruan Dacheng's face never stopped.

"Boy, your next step is to...!" Chen Fu was a little surprised as to why Li Xiao was leaving in such a hurry.

"Don't be in a hurry! It's already August, and I'm in a hurry to return to Liaodong. As long as the weather cools down, the ground in Liaodong will be unsafe. Moreover, the Yizhou issue must also be resolved. There are red-haired ghosts nailed to the ground in China.

A castle, that’s nothing.”

"Are you going to Yizhou?"

"There are more than a thousand red-haired ghost soldiers and three warships stationed in Chiyan City. You don't know how powerful the red-haired ghost soldiers are. The weapons in their hands are almost the same as those in the hands of my men.

.

Moreover, their Folan cannons are also famously powerful. There are forty of them on one warship, including the ships and soldiers of the Guangzhou Navy. As long as I leave, they can move sideways in the southeast.

While John has temporarily stabilized them, I must be quick! It is best to block their warships in the harbor and let their warships go, causing endless trouble!"

"You are really a troublemaker. If you come to the southeast once, you will turn the entire southeast coast upside down. The red-haired ghosts have been doing this for many years. The old handsome man can't do anything to them. You messed with them like this.

I'm afraid there will no longer be a place for them to stand in the southeast!

Well done, you will make our descendants of China look good. This time, I will follow you. After this, we will go north together. Do you want to inform Lao Zou, he is the admiral of the Guangdong Navy, and his subordinates are in charge of the Guangdong Navy.

division."

"Forget it, the Guangdong Navy mainly fights with fireships. In the battle in Macau last month, his fireships were almost burned. Besides, his ships are all small boats, and they are too slow to keep up with me.

speed. Now while the red-haired ghosts are still hesitating, they need to kill the three warships parked in the harbor as soon as possible.

Otherwise, when Kui Yi's envoy arrives, the three warships may also go to Java. The fewer foreign warships in the South China Sea, the better. The ships under Zheng Zhilong's hands are really too weak. If we really want to

In a fight with the red-haired ghost's ship, ten ships may not be able to compete with just one."

"Okay! Let's go to Yizhou and have a good time. I have heard about the Chihan City for many years. It is a cancer embedded in the southeast of my Ming Dynasty. The red-haired people are plundering the sea. The base is

In Chikan City, they not only fish and feed the people of Yizhou.

Even the Ming Dynasty navy dared to attack me, and several of my brothers fell into their hands.

In recent years, the imperial court has not allocated money to build large ships, so the navy can only use small boats to run in the coastal waters. The merchants and fishermen who run boats at sea have been bullied by these red-haired ghosts.

The navy of the imperial court still relied on the tactics of relying on gangs to fight, or using fire ships to charge at enemy warships and burn them.

But both of these are useless against the red-haired people. Their artillery is powerful, and you will be beaten to pieces before you can join the ship. As for the fire ship, it is even more of a joke. Their ship is a five-masted ship. Not only does it have five

There is a mainsail and many smaller sails.

Our fire ship is not even half as fast as others. We are being treated like dogs and being walked around on the sea! Alas! This makes me feel panicked.

Now your ship is the only five-masted ship that can restrain the red-haired ghosts. Block them in the harbor and beat them up!" Hearing that Li Xiao was going to attack the red-haired ghosts, Chen Ful was as happy as a confinement boy.

The doll in it. It can be seen that the red-haired ghost has really bullied the people in the southeast these years.

Before they had time to have a celebration banquet, Ruan Dacheng's silver was carried onto the ship. Li Xiao ordered the sails to be set sail, and Nikolai and Nikolaeva were brought on board the ship. From now on, they will still have to help host Chiqian City. After all, whether it is

Be it rubber, corn, tobacco or other things, it all needs to be done by Nikolaeva, a woman who can be called a botanist. What grows underground does not grow, and knowledge is also required here.

On the sparkling sea, John looked at the city of Guangzhou getting further and further away. The day Bobby died, his fate had to be tied to that mysterious oriental man.

This oriental man is so young, so young that he doesn't even have a strong beard on his lips. But this oriental man is also so powerful, so powerful that it's suffocating.

The fleet led by Kui Yi is a force that cannot be underestimated even in the West. Its terrifying combat power defeated Li Xiao during the day. There was a time when John was thinking about how to humiliate this man. Or maybe it was

Face his corpse and express your indignation.

But by midnight, everything changed.

When the Dutch warships caught fire one after another, and when Li Xiao in the encirclement broke out with a powerful fighting force, John, Bobby, and even Kui Yi all collapsed.

Although they almost succeeded, they were still a little short in the end. Macau has now become the world of the Ming Dynasty, and the era when the Dutch and Portuguese could go sideways is over.

Whenever he faced Li Xiao, John would feel a deep sense of powerlessness. This man was so powerful that people had no idea of ​​fighting him. That old guy Cai Shanji was the best example, and he didn't even meet Li Xiao.

He'll be killed as soon as he crosses the path.

Because he went against Li Xiao with just a little money, his brain was definitely kicked by a donkey.

Now is not the time to worry about Cai Shanji, it is better to think about how to express your loyalty to this oriental man. The Netherlands itself cannot go back, and the same is probably true for other Western countries. No one likes a traitor! The rest of his life

In terms of career, I can only follow this oriental man.

Although this is bad news, there is also good news. For now, it seems good to hang out with this oriental man. At least, you can have a chance to be with Nikolaeva.

The ship left the Guangzhou pier and drifted along the Pearl River to the sea. The summer in Guangzhou is very hot, but the midnight sea breeze is very cool.

Li Xiao was sitting on the front deck, and two soldiers brought a huge sea of ​​tea. This was a gift from Zou Weilian to Tokugawa Chihiro, and she was deeply loved by Tokugawa Chihiro.

Watching Tokugawa Chihime perform a tea ceremony is not only pleasing to the eye but also pleasing to the eye. The silk kimono wraps her curvy figure, and the snow-white feather fabric flutters in the wind.

The mountain spring water was burned by the charcoal fire until fish-eye blisters appeared. The boiling water was poured into the pot and poured out quickly to wash the tea.

Green onion-like jade fingers hold the handle, and the mouth of the pot is lifted three times, which is to nod the Phoenix three times.

Sealing the pot, dividing the pot, smelling the aroma, tasting the tea, ordinary tea drinking has been interpreted by this girl to the level of art.

Chen Fu closed his eyes and tasted the tea soup in his mouth for a long time before he was willing to swallow it. "Qianji, the four key points of the tea ceremony of harmony, respect, purity and tranquility, can be regarded as a glimpse. I can take a sip on this sea, which is unprecedented in my life."

regret."

Ignoring the old guy, he drank the tea as if he was gargling his mouth. After making sure that the old guy wasn't taking advantage of his wife, Li Xiao picked up the teacup and drained it in one gulp. He said "suck it" "smack it", drinking tea was just to quench his thirst. Play.

What are those twists and turns for?

"What a waste of natural resources!" Chen Fu said angrily, stood up and left. After all, he was a boat racer, and he walked steadily on the bumpy sea.

"Brother! Take Chikan City, I want to stay here to recuperate." Li Hu saw Chen Fu leaving and came over in a sullen voice. When he finished speaking, he rubbed his nose with his hand.

This bastard has this habit whenever he lies. As long as he rubs his nose after speaking, Li Xiao knows that this guy is playing tricks without having to judge.

"Don't even think about it. Let's go back to Liaodong after taking Chican City. It's August, and the Tatars should be restless. The Shanhaiguan defense line has been greatly reduced. There are only 70,000 people guarding the more than 300-mile defense line. According to Nurhaci's temper,

It's simply not his character not to come and grab a handful.

As long as his claws hurt from being beaten, it’s best to chop them off so that they won’t extend to our Ming Dynasty in the future.”

"Oh! I got it, brother!" Li Hu lowered his head helplessly, as his brothers went into battle as father and son. What's more, Li Hu loved war so much.

"Have you fallen in love with Yangma? I said, Huzi, how old are you? You want this or that. You've fucked so many wives at such a young age, and you've lost all your bones?" Li Xiu sat down next to Li Hu dissatisfied.

Li Hu glanced at Li Xiu, lowered his head and said nothing.

This is a lustful little bastard. The young man thinks that all the beautiful women in the world should be his. It is probably because this boy has too strong male hormone secretion!

"After your injury is healed, you will follow Master Ao to train troops. You have to go through the things that new soldiers have to go through. Otherwise, how will you lead the army in the future, and...! Learn to write, if you can't read a basket of big characters, I'll give it to you.

You can’t even read your letters.” Ao Canghai’s devilish training can definitely consume his excess hormones.

"Brother! I don't want to learn to write. I'm going to train with Mr. Ao. From now on, I'll be by your side. Why do I need to learn to write? Even if I'm not by your side, I can still ask for help."

"Then is it sir who is leading the army, or are you leading the army? If you don't know how to read and don't know what my orders are, it's the same as putting your life in the hands of others.

Second child, I've been watching him these past few days. He knows five big characters every day and copies them ten times. If he can't finish a word, he has to type a blackboard, and his chest is hurt and his butt is not tightened.

Just here on the deck, take off your pants and beat me hard. Don’t you want to lose face? If you can’t learn to write, don’t lose face.”

"Brother...!" Li Hu raised his head, saw Li Xiao's eyes, and immediately lowered his head. This time, the good days were over.

The ship in the dark carried Li Xiao towards Yizhou. With Chen Fu as an old sailor and John as the guide, the ship left the Guangzhou Pier and headed east.

Chikan City is located in Tainan in later generations. The coast here is winding, and there is an inner harbor between the two cities, called Taijiang. There are seven islands connected to the southwest of Taijiang, called Qikunyu. Each island is more than 1 mile apart, and each other is

"Adjacent to the Huanhuan". There is a small island at the end of the North Line across the sea to the north of Kunyu. The sea in between is called Damuan Port (also known as Anping Port). To the north of the end of the North Line is Lu'ermen Port. The castle built by the Dutch is in Taiwan City.
