The fourth order is the formalization of the establishment. In fact, the formalization of the establishment has already been put on the agenda, and preliminary work has been done. So far, there is only one official order left. From the date this order is issued,

, Liu Pei’s servants were officially divided into two parts: the army and the navy, and were attached to the General Staff Headquarters.

However, Liu Pei's overseas troops were completely regularized, while those who stayed in the Daming territory implemented two sets of military systems. In other words, they still refer to themselves according to the military system of the Ming Dynasty, but in fact they have changed. However, those who stayed in the Daming territory have

Thousands of people are all loyal subordinates who have been tested, and they are not worried about leaks. Even if it is leaked, Liu Pei will have something to say. After all, he is his personal servant, not the Ming Dynasty's army.

As Liu Pei issued a series of orders, all his subordinate agencies began to operate slowly, working together more and more closely like a running machine, and went all out to prepare for the next war.

This is also the most helpless thing about Liu Pei! As time goes by, Liu Pei's strength will become stronger and stronger. But as the second fleet becomes larger and larger, it can no longer be hidden! As a fleet,

.In order to ensure combat effectiveness, it is necessary to go to sea for training. And no matter how the increasingly large fleet is hidden, there will eventually be clues on the sea.

There are already maritime legends about strange large plywood boats appearing on the sea. But no one takes this matter seriously. But by the end of this year, the Second Fleet will become a force of nearly 30 warships.

A huge fleet! Such a large fleet cannot be hidden! Therefore, Liu Pei must completely defeat Zheng Zhilong before his strength is completely exposed.

During this period of time, as the war at sea subsided, trade between all parties became more prosperous. Since there were fewer ships on the sea, the number of ships on the sea became even more scarce. But anyone with a discerning eye knows that it is just the calm before the war.

At this time, the autumn harvest under Liu Pei arrived. Liu Pei attached great importance to this autumn harvest! Not only did he disperse his bodyguards and dispatch them to various places to check the situation, he also went to inspect it personally.

During the inspection, he also brought his wife Wang Ya with him. It must be said that Wang Ya was born in a lady and was very capable in doing things.

After Liu Pei and Wang Ya got married, Liu Pei gave his wife one thing to do. That was to care for the orphans from time to time. On the one hand, Liu Pei felt that these children really needed the care of women. On the other hand, he thought

Wang Ya's female identity can effectively affect the emotional world of these children and make them more loyal to themselves.

Facts have proved that Wang Ya did a very good job! He not only brought food and clothing to the children, but also brought motherly care! In two or three months, they were older

The daughter of Wang Ya’s daughter made a request and wanted to be transferred to Wang Ya’s bodyguard. And according to the feedback from the guards, Wang Ya would receive a warm welcome every time she showed up! She was even more popular than Liu Pei to a certain extent!

Liu Pei is like a strict father. He cares about the children, but never dotes on them. He even puts heavy pressure on them in order to let them grow up. Wang Ya's mother image fits the softest place in the hearts of these orphans, so it is quite

Popular! Liu Pei joked with Wang Ya in private: "These kids always like you more than me!"

Liu Pei finally felt relieved after taking Wang Ya to inspect Shandong. This autumn harvest was a success! According to statistics from the accountant, after this autumn harvest, Liu Pei was able to reserve enough food to feed everyone under his rule for a year!

Moreover, the accounting gentlemen optimistically predict that next year's autumn harvest will be better! Because the newly opened land in Ryukyu and Shandong will be productive next year. This makes Liu Pei completely relieved and has the confidence to carry out a larger-scale war.

As time goes by, the smell of gunpowder on the sea becomes stronger and stronger. Liu Pei and Zheng Zhilong have fought many times at sea. Although it has not reached the stage of war, people can already smell the bloody smell in the sea breeze. Everyone is here

Waiting for this final decisive battle to happen. This battle will determine the ownership of this ocean.

On an island in the outer sea, there is a pirate's stockade. The stockade is very dilapidated, and it can be seen that it has experienced a long time. It should be the nest where pirates have been stationed for a long time. In the middle yard, Zheng Zhilong is surrounded by seven or eight people.

We had a meeting while drinking. Most of the people attending the meeting were members of the famous Shiba Zhi in the future. However, Shiba Zhi had not yet been established at this time.

Several people had just finished discussing the maintenance and supply situation of the fleet. Zheng Zhilong put down his chopsticks and said seriously: "Daxuan, have you figured out the approximate number of Red Eyed Snake's fleet?"

The Daxuan in Zheng Zhilong’s mouth refers to Shi Daxuan, who is also a member of the future Eighteen Zhi. He himself is inconspicuous, but he has a powerful son, Shi Lang!

Shi Daxuan said: "We have roughly figured it out! During this period of time, they have been provoking troubles, and we have endured it! But they may not have thought of it. We just want to find out their details through fighting! If they know it, I'm afraid

My intestines are so red!"

Everyone present laughed, and Zheng Zhilong also smiled and said: "Then if there is another war, how many ships can he touch?"

Shi Daxuan said: "Roughly around 30 ships. But I guess these ships are definitely not his entire fleet. He must have back-up plans!"

Hong Xu, who was beside Shi Daxuan, took over the conversation. This Hong Xu was also a good man! He was initially recruited by the Ming Dynasty along with Zheng Zhilong and became a subordinate of Zheng Zhilong, the chief military officer of the Ming Dynasty.

In the second year of Shunzhi (1645), Emperor Longwu Zhu Yujian was promoted to the title of Zhongzhenbo. In the third year of Shunzhi (1646), after Zheng Zhilong surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, he surrendered to Zheng Chenggong and fought against the Qing Dynasty.

In the eleventh year of Shunzhi (1655), Zheng Chenggong undertook the establishment of six officials, with Hong Xu as the household official, and he was transferred to the right army of the navy, the governor of the navy, and the admiral Gan Hui took Zhoushan. In the fifteenth year of Shunzhi (1658)

During Zheng Chenggong's Northern Expedition, Hong Xu served as a military officer and stayed in Jinxia together with Huang Ting and Zheng Tai. In the 17th year of Shunzhi (1660), the Qing army attacked Xiamen, and Zheng Chenggong and Hong Xu defeated the Qing army.

In the 18th year of Shunzhi (1661), Zheng Chenggong led his army to conquer Taiwan, and ordered Hong Xu to assist his son Zheng Jing to stay in Siming. In May of the first year of Kangxi (1662), after Zheng Chenggong passed away, Hong Xu asked Zheng Jing to lead his troops to cross Taiwan to quell the crisis.

After crossing to Taiwan, Hong Xu suggested that Zheng Jing set up troops to garrison Penghu, train troops, and strengthen Taiwan's defense. He also sent merchant ships to Japan and Southeast Asia for trade. In August of the fifth year of Kangxi's reign (1666), Hong Xu was overworked due to excessive worry.

Died from cold illness.

Hong Xu laughed and said: "If it were me, I wouldn't release the entire fleet! I estimate that he has about 40 boats. I have no plans for small boats like the Catalpa. That kind of thing

It's useless for ships to fight."

Zheng Zhilong frowned and said: "Hai Zhi is not useless, choosing a good place is still very useful! In addition, how are his sailors' skills?"

Shi Daxuan said seriously: "It's pretty good! It doesn't sound like a novice! But the accents are all those of northerners. When did northerners become so good? They say that people are good at horses and southerners are good at boats, but these Yankees

The ship commanders are very good! But they are not good at fighting on the sea! They are not as agile as our people!"

Zheng Zhilong said: "Then concentrate on fighting hand-to-hand combat! As long as our people can charge forward, victory will belong to us!"

A big man with thick eyebrows put down the teacup in his hand. This man's name is Gan Hui, he is also the leader of a group of pirates, and he is close to Zheng Zhilong. This man is also a hero! What's even more rare is that this man is highly skilled in martial arts.

He can do both land and water! He also has a very high level of intelligence and has the ability to predict the enemy ahead of him!

Gan Hui was a native of Dongyuan Village in Haicheng County (now part of Longhai City, Fujian Province) in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties. His parents died early and his family was extremely poor. He was a righteous man and a chivalrous person, and he liked to fight against injustice. Therefore, he was persecuted by the clan leader and wandered in the

People in Zhangzhou, Shima, Haicheng and other places do not dare to live in the countryside for a long time.

In 1646 (the second year of Longwu), Zheng Chenggong raised troops in Nan'ao to fight against the Qing Dynasty and recruited troops and horses. Gan Hui threw himself into Zheng's army and became famous for his bravery and good fighting skills. In April of 1648 (the second year of Yongli), Zheng's army attacked
