"Who have you read books and read characters?" Peng Fugui's third son, who was once a gangster at the sea, turned out to be a naked bronze arms, stared at him and asked viciously. His two strong arms, as if they were shaking like snakes, would tremble. Look, if anyone in the group of soldiers who had just recruited, would shout "I am a scholar", he would be strangled to death.

The four soldiers standing in the first row and opposite him shook their heads timidly, took a step back while the person was not paying attention, and quietly wiped the spit on their faces.

Peng Xiaoyang's eyes slowly swept over the nearly 300 newly recruited navy troops. Seeing that no one responded, he said "um" in disappointment and nodded, "It doesn't matter if you don't recognize words, you are... cough cough, I don't know you either. But it doesn't matter. I have never read books and heard the word "shelf in the same boat"? Why do you think my ancestors don't say that they work together, they work together with horses, they work together with deskmates, and they work together with beds, and they have to say that they work together with each other?"

Recruiting recruits from Changle and other places who were accustomed to water can't help but want to laugh, but Xiaoyang's image is too fierce, so they still cooperated and shook their heads.

Peng Xiaoyang waved his hand and said loudly: "Because only on the water can everyone's lives be connected together. The one that connects your lives is the boat. So when fighting on the water, you must remember that it is not the man who fights, but the boat!

You new springboard tender melon bags, I teach you... I teach you, it doesn't matter if the flood comes over. When confronting them, don't be heroes. The helm who should be the helm, the cannon that should be the cannon that should be the cannon, the sail that should be the lifting, the sail that should be the lifting, the sail that should be the lively next to you, it's all your business. Don't be surprised by the bubble. Who dares to thorn when you are on the ground? I pinch whoever dares to thorn or pinch his bud."

Peng Xiaoyang sometimes speaks in a man-made manner, sometimes silly, and speaks very seriously: "Once you get on the boat, you have two things to do, protect our boat! Destroy the other party's boat. Even if their shrimps are ten times more than us, you will only kill you a few crooked people. As long as you sink his boat and save ours, this ticket will not be in vain. Even if the big fish is caught, do you understand?"

After saying that, Peng Xiaoyang secretly glanced at the adults not far away and stopped to watch. The little white face standing in front of the python robe and jade belt must be the big boss behind the second boss. Looking at this look... the second boss is probably going to be upgraded to the boss's wife. Peng Xiaoyang muttered secretly, and when he saw Yang Ling smile, he seemed to be very satisfied with his teaching method, he became more and more show-off.

He took the initiative to teach the new pirates in the past and said viciously, "When there are many enemies, they will fight and play with evil spirits." When he is strong, he will beat the enemy so hard that he can't turn over. Then he began to talk to these new recruits endlessly about how to cooperate with each other once the war begins, the ships, the offensives, the defensives, and the military supplies supply.

At this time, two new warships on the sea were similar to offense and defense. When demonstrating the water leakage on the side of the ship and the sails were fired, the crew members performed their duties, repaired blockages, put out fires, and raised new sails. At the same time, how the fighters responded calmly and continued to look for fighter jets.

Yang Ling, accompanied by Gu Dayong, Bai Chongzan, Min Wenjian, Peng Fugui and a group of senior navy generals, watched the lively scene slowly passing the warm beach.

The sea breeze was gentle, bringing some fishy smell. The military training was on the ground, and there were still many seabirds chirping happily and hovering in the azure sky.

"Here, the navy generals explain the communication methods such as flag language and lantern language, as well as how the fleet is deployed, and how each other supports each other. Over the years, the sea has been abandoned. There are many old and weak soldiers, and even soldiers who are naval soldiers who are not familiar with water warfare. Gong Gong Gu adheres to the sacred intentions. The first thing he did after coming to Jiangnan was to rectify the navy, cut mediocre, recruit new recruits, and train them strictly. Only then did our Jiangnan Navy have today's atmosphere. Many generals and schools are newly promoted, so they need to train again."

Bai Chongzan explained the situation of the Navy Camp, and then took the opportunity to praise Gu Dayong for a few words. Hearing Gu Dayong felt comfortable all over. He couldn't help but show a proud look of joy on his face.

Yang Ling has seen Gu Dayong's "decisive and decisive behavior". In particular, Gu Dayong's current future is closely related to whether the successful opening of the sea trade. The first key to opening of the sea trade is whether there can be a strong navy to ensure the safety of the sea border. How could he not work hard to rectify the navy?

"The camp here is mainly composed of people with experience in naval combat recruited by the naval generals and General Peng Qian, who were recruited by the naval commander and General Peng Qian, explaining examples of naval combat to the official schools of the naval warships similar to the naval chart, how to fight against each other, land on the beach, seize key points, and retreat methods."

Yang Ling nodded. He had not seen Han Wu yet, and couldn't help asking: "Where is Mr. Han Qian now?"

Bai Chongzan turned his head and whispered a few words to a navy general beside him, and then replied: "Sir, Han Qian led three warships and led about 500 trained recruits to the sea to perform martial arts. He will come back in the evening. They are already the sixth batch of performing soldiers.

According to the order issued by the Ministry of War, the Ming Navy should be able to fight at any weather, anywhere, and at any time. Therefore, we now have to send ships to try out exercises in foggy, rainy days and nights. Because the day of the Japanese pirates is approaching and the training tasks of the soldiers are tight, Mr. Han Qian volunteered to lead the ship to sea to perform martial arts again this morning."

He looked up at the sky and smiled and said, "Today's clear sky is clear and calm, which is suitable for cannon drills. These soldiers will go out and go around and will not panic when they are really fighting. As long as they fight a few battles, they will become veterans."

Yang Ling smiled and said, "Yes, what you are learning is theory on paper. You have to try it yourself to truly master what you have learned. The Japanese pirates have now reached the coast of the Ming Dynasty and are expected to start harassing them soon.

This is the first battle after the reorganization of our navy. Lord Bai must be very cautious and must ensure that the first battle is successful. Otherwise, the morale of veterans who have not fought for a long time and new soldiers who have just joined the army will be greatly reduced in the future. A coward, even if he is wearing the strongest ground armor and the sharpest weapon, will only be a deserter on the battlefield."

"Yes, what the Lord said is reasonable. This soldier is the most important thing to bring morale to. Once the morale is dissipated, you can't be wise and powerful. They just want to escape everywhere, and there is no way to fight that battle." Bai Chongzan nodded.

A handsome tent appeared in front of him. Yang Ling stopped and turned his head to look. He saw Cheng Qiyun holding a small golden fan covering her face, and her cheeks were rosy, which was obviously not very suitable for the strong light on the beach.

Cheng Qiyun was not convenient for appearing in red outfits in the military camp. So she wore a dress of men's clothes, like a handsome scholar. She was not far away from Yang Ling, just like an aide, and it was not easy to attract the attention of soldiers from afar.

Seeing this, Yang Ling smiled, and stood up and turned to the generals and said, "The matters of opening the sea and opening the sea in Jiangnan are handled step by step and orderly. I will report to the emperor one by one. However, before opening the sea, I will have to eliminate the Japanese pirates. Before suppressing the pirates, I will strengthen our navy. Otherwise, I will wait for the enemy to come and respond passively, and the sea will be uneasy. I will eventually be confused.

You guys are all wearing armor, are you thirsty? Come on, let's take a break, I will learn about the situation of the robbery on the sea. Haha, Lord Bai has the best quality tea? I am not happy with the nameless tea."

Unexpectedly, he could find out the wonderful things about this question. Bai Chongzan was originally the commander-in-chief of the Northwest and had very strict military commands. He never drank alcohol for the regular military discipline. However, this person was fond of famous tea, and the tea he drank was actually a little more expensive than fine wine.

When Bai Chongzan heard that the imperial envoy was a fellow-in-law who was good tea, he was very happy. He hurriedly said, "Sir, please rest. Speaking of tea... How can you not have famous tea in Jiangnan? Xiaguan is also good tea. Xiaguan now has treasured West Lake Longjing, Haoding stone flowers, Jade Leaf Changchun, Guzhu purple bamboo shoots, Hehuan bright moon, Riding fire, Bird beak, Xiao Sixian... Which kind of thing is adults who like to drink?"

Yang Ling laughed and said, "Mr. Bai is an expert. I can't do it. I can taste good tea. But I can't remember their names. I like to drink... Xiaocheng. What is the kind of tea I like to drink the most?"

Others only heard that Yang Ling was asking the people around him, "I like to drink the tea the most," but Cheng Qiyun understood that he was asking, "What kind of tea Xiaocheng likes to drink the most?"

Her heart was sweet at first, but then she was a little worried about gains and losses: He... did he care about me as a woman, or did he treat me as a subordinate who needs to rely on to use gentle means?

Cheng Qiyun looked at Yang Ling, brushed the fan on the ground, and a shallow dimples appeared on her cheeks and said, "Sir, why not taste... Hehuan Bright Moon." When she talked about Hehuan Bright Moon, she knocked the handle of the fan on Bai Rusuyu's palm twice.

"The new Qi silk is as plain as frost and snow. It is cut into a fan of flowers, and the reunion is like the bright moon. When you enter and exit your sleeves, the breeze is shook; you are often afraid that the autumn festival will come, and the coolness will rob the heat. If you donate it in the box, the kindness will be gone in the end."

Cheng Qiyun's expectations and worries cleverly used the four words "Hehuan Bright Moon" and her vivid movements, and her eyes sent a tentative signal to Yang Ling. Unfortunately... it's a pity that our Yang Daxiu can only "hoe the crops at noon".

I want him to think of the ancient poem of the beauty in the tea name from this implicit reminder, and then to experience the mood of Qiyun from this ancient poem, the complexity of Yangling is ten times more difficult than Xiehai to trade.

He said to the generals without any awareness: "Eunuch Gu, generals, let's go to the account to sing Lord Pinbai's treasures, hahaha, please, please..."

"Mutuo Man! Lian'er is right, this bastard is really made of wood!" Cheng Qiyun looked at him hatefully, pouted and followed him into the tent.

The middle of the tent is a sand table, and the piled land is the defense of the coastal government troops in Zhejiang, the sea island terrain, and several known pirates gathered. However, the Ming military has never paid attention to and carefully explored the terrain and landforms. The map is obviously rough, and all it can show is the approximate situation and some more famous mountains, rivers, island terrain, map land proportions and many subtle places.

The curtains in front and behind the big tent were lifted up. In March and April, as long as the sunlight could not shine in, the sea breeze would blow through the tent, which would be very cool.

After drinking tea for a while, Bai Chongzan whispered a few words to a general. The general stood up and fisted and said, "The imperial envoy, the lower officer, the Hangzhou navy guard Zeng Jianxiong, the inner factory master, and our Zhejiang navy generals have developed some countermeasures to the bandits entrenched on the sea, and the lower officer reports to the imperial envoy."

Yang Ling said happily: "Please speak with Master Zeng."

Zeng Shoujie said: "Sir, we are now preparing to use three methods of inducing surrender, recruiting and encirclement and suppression to separate them. I just heard that I am preparing to join forces with the Japanese Navy, so the encirclement and suppression efforts can be adjusted further, and the results should be achieved."

Jointly encircling and suppressing pirates with the Japanese Kingdom was actually Yang Ling's proposal. However, he wanted the two countries to suppress bandits in their own waters, but now he went further and wanted to use troops together, which was a precedent for international joint counter-terrorism. However, Zeng Shoujie did not know that the court's move came from Yang Ling.

Yang Ling thought for a while and said, "You can tell me the specific situation, let me listen to it. However, this plan to lure surrender must be used unless it is absolutely necessary. One surrender can be successful, but the reputation of the court is shattered and it will be difficult to win the trust of others from now on."

Zeng Jianxiong paused and said, "Yes! Sir, there are currently real Japanese, fake Japanese, Ming pirates, and Xifan pirates. There are few Western pirate ships, and they only move in the southeast corner and rarely get close to Zhejiang and Fujian. They can be ignored."

Yang Ling smiled when he heard this: This negligible Western pirate is the real confidant of China in later generations, except for him. I am afraid that no one will have such an understanding of Western pirates. They are ready to move and have the idea of ​​the Strait of Malacca, but the coastal navy has not yet realized their harm.

He didn't interrupt, but just nodded and said, "Speak on."

Zeng Shoujie continued: "For the Ming pirates, we are mainly planning to recruit people. These people are brave and good at fighting. Once recruiting people, they will be ready-made naval troops. Speaking of Ming pirates, they are originally from the coast, and their fellow villagers live on the coast, so they do not go ashore to plunder or invade fishermen. The main means to profit from the land is to charge maritime fees for smuggling maritime merchants. If they pay the goods according to the amount, they will also escort the smuggling caravan to Nanyang.

The second is to compete with other pirates for profit. The real pirates only come to our Ming Dynasty in March, April and October every year. When they return to Japan at other times, they are vassals in real pirates and fake pirates live on islands. They usually come out to do business of looting merchant ships, and sometimes they are eaten by Ming pirates. There are also those few Western pirates, and they are also the target of the Ming pirates robbing each time they go north.

The main source of income is that the Ming pirates and merchants are both pirates and merchants, and they use their troops to support merchants. They also do smuggling business with the countries in the South China Sea, so that they have to guard against other pirates' attacks on them. Therefore, among the pirates on the sea, the Ming pirates have the strongest combat power, and it is the most difficult to wipe out."

Yang Ling smiled and said, "How strong are you? Are you even stronger than the Ming Navy?"

Zeng Shoubei smiled awkwardly and defended him: "This...is not the case. The main reason is that when they have enough money, they will send it back to their hometown to their relatives in the land that cannot be crossed. Some wealthy pirates will also repair bridges and roads and do some good deeds to win the hearts of the people. Therefore, every time the Ming Navy went to sea, someone would inform them and even provide a place to hide. In addition, they smuggled goods to the countries in the South China Sea, and those small countries were greedy for profit and secretly helped them, which was very difficult to wipe out."

He looked at Peng Fugui and said, "There was originally a thief in Putuo Mountain area nicknamed Shark King, and he was one of the four major bandits in the East China Sea. When he was the most powerful, he did not have to send a ship to sea at all. Whenever a ship passed by, he would raise a flag on the island. The smuggled merchant ships of the South China Sea and the Ming Dynasty would dock for inspection, and then pay the fee according to the amount of goods.

The obtained property is divided into three parts: heaven, earth and man. One part is used to rescue the poor along the coast and one part: hide it and pay for the dead and disabled pirates and their relatives. One part is rewarded for the successful deployment of combat. Therefore, we have been greatly supported by the poor and pirates. We have indeed lost several times."

Mr. Peng is the thief of the East China Sea, and has been recruited by the court. The upper-level officers of the navy know about the news that the matter has not been made public yet. Not only the people do not know it, but even the lower-class officers are not aware of it. Therefore, although the officials present know the details, it is difficult for him to tell Peng Fugui directly.

Yang Ling laughed loudly and said, "Okay, I didn't expect that there would be Robin Hood among the pirates of the Ming Dynasty." He smiled and looked at Peng Fugui, thinking, "It's a pity that this person is not ambitious. If Ye Luo didn't have the idea of ​​returning to his roots, he might be a sea king like Zheng Zhilong."

Peng Fugui was told by Zeng Shoujie that he had occupied Hai as king, and his face turned red. When he heard Yang Ling compare him to Robin Hood, he couldn't help asking: "Sir, who is Robin Hood?"

Yang Ling smiled and said, "That is a very famous thief in the West."

Although Peng Fugui was invincible when he was on the sea, many of the generals and officials present were defeated by his land, but now he is also a local official, and his official position is lower than others. The pirate's origin always makes him feel inferior. Now, when the imperial envoy compared him to a thief, he feels very glorious and his chest is up.

Zeng Shouji hesitated and said, "As for the real Japanese and the fake Japanese who followed them, they were so cruel. We decided to kill them. However, they only took a boat across the sea to rob the Ming Dynasty in spring and autumn every year. Moreover, they had fine works, so they could always avoid our naval patrol fleet, so we rarely fought with them at sea, so the combat power on the water is really unknown.

As for other small pirates, I believe that after Xiehai trades, some of them will turn into pirates into business, and a few pirates will be left. It will be difficult to pose a threat to the merchant fleet."

After listening, Yang Ling closed his eyes and thought for a while, nodded and said, "No, use both suppression and servitude, and be lenient and strict, so that he can differentiate the thieves on the sea. He can achieve the results as soon as possible, and the battlefield changes rapidly. For specific tactics and tactics, soldiers and generals must adapt to the situation.

The sea is a pirate. The sea is a natural shelter. It means that when a hundred warships drive into the sea and drive ten miles, you will not be able to find it. The Japanese pirates are good at hiding, so we have to send out detailed works to understand the details of each pirate and their relationship. In this regard... it becomes a stubborn person, and you will be responsible."

Cheng Qiyun took a step forward, clasped her fists like a man, and responded solemnly: "Yes!"

"Seagouzi occupied the islands in Zhoushan, with more than 30 warships of all sizes and sizes and more than 7,000 people under his command. His strength cannot be underestimated. He entrenched his brother Snow Cat on a farther island. Both warships and soldiers were not under him. They mainly used robbery and kidnapping to make money.

These two people occupy the island and become kings, free and easy. Although they heard that the court was training the navy, they were still unmoved. I sent the landlords to make a test, but these two people had no intention of accepting the court's amnesty."

Peng Fugui finished speaking to Cheng Qiyun. Cheng Qiyun walked in the room with her hands on her back for a while, then walked to the window, looked at the seagulls hovering in the air and said slowly, "No hurry, if you don't fight, you will make these arrogant and arrogant water heroes surrender. It's hard to send people there first, so as not to be anxious to cram the Buddha's feet and arouse these two people's suspicion."

"Yes, I will send someone to notify the beauty immediately and ask him to act according to the plan. Should I let the factory governor know about this?" Peng Fugui thought for a while and asked again.

"No need," Cheng Qiyun's pretty face darkened and she said coldly: "If they have seen the power of the imperial naval commander and are willing to accept the court's envoy, then this step of subduing chess is not enough. If they don't know the truth, they must use some ruthless means.

Lord Yang is too compassionate. As a scholar, sometimes it is inevitable that his mother-in-law and mother will be confused if he opposes it. Is Lord Yang a person who does big things, so it would be better to ask him to get less bloody."

She thought for a while and asked again: "About you four heroes in the East China Sea, people who make a living on the water often say, "The sea dog picks up a cat, and the shark doesn't eat the grass back." How strong is this grass?"

Peng Fugui showed a smile on his face and said, "Bai Xiaocao is timid. He is afraid of wolves and tigers when doing things. However, his power is not small. He is entrenched in Huangwei Island, Diaoyu Island (Diaoyu Island), and Beixiao Island. He has more than 20 warships and nearly 50 merchant ships.

He took over the smuggling business of jewelry, jade and spices from the French countries and the Ming Dynasty in the southeast, and had close contacts with merchants from Ryukyu and Yizhou (Taiwan). He said he was a big thief, but in fact he was more like a sleek businessman.

Because the sea dog and the snow cat often join forces to bully him, he once asked me for help, hoping to form an alliance with me. However, this kid changed his mind and was an unreliable person. I was unwilling to offend the sea dog brothers for such a person, so I refused it all at once. Therefore, there is a saying that 'sharks don't eat back grass'. Now my troops are led by the beauty Wang, so it should be called 'beauty doesn't eat back grass'. Haha..."

"Haha..." Cheng Qiyun's lips curled up and she smiled a little evilly: "A timid and greedy overlord, such a person is tempted by profit and scared by soldiers, and it is not difficult to deal with. Lord Yang seems to be very interested in doing business. This person has so many merchant ships and has close ties with other countries. If he recruits him, he must be very happy. Master, use snacks, and find a way to eat him."

The shark king Peng Fugui responded with a muffled smile. Seeing Cheng Qiyun's orders no longer, he bowed and said, "Second, if there is no other order, I will make some arrangements."

Cheng Qiyun nodded and sent Peng Fugui out. She sat at the table and carefully pondered her plan. Then she raised her eyebrows and stood up happily. The beach was soft and she struggled to walk. She accompanied Yang Ling for most of the day. Her ankles were sore. She felt tired after handling business. She went back to the bed and sat down, took off her boots. In addition to cloth socks, she rubbed her crystal clear and beautiful ankles.

At this time, the door knocked a few times, and Cheng Qiyun thought it was the little maid who served her, and said without raising her head, "Come in, help me bring the water over."

The person entering the door did not speak and brought the basin from the basin rack next to the door.

Cheng Qiyun saw a corner of her clothes, white boots, vermilion red official robe, and a ceratops tail on her robe. She was shocked and hurriedly looked up. She saw Yang Ling bent down and put the water in front of her, and smiled and said, "Why, your feet are sore?"

The feet were thin, the skin was tender, and the ten jade toes were curled up tightly. The thin pink soles of the feet were red and tender. Yang Ling bowed and was very tight from the slender feet. Cheng Qiyun couldn't help but shyly shrank her feet, and waited for Yang Ling to get up and put her feet in the basin. While feeling the considerate care and cool comfort, she asked, "Why are you here?"

Cheng Qiyun pressed her hands against the edge of the bed, and her feet were soaked in clear water, gently tweaking the water surface, making her look extremely gentle. Yang Ling was inconvenient to see more, so he retreated to the table and sat down, looking at Cheng Qiyun and said, "The Japanese pirates came ashore and fled back to the island when they encountered obstacles. If they wanted to attack the island, they should not rely solely on the navy, but the combat power of the coastal garrison was so poor..."

Yang Ling shook his head and said with a serious expression: "I heard the situation introduced by Zeng Shoujie today. I think using the enemy to control the enemy is a way. After all, they know the truth. The Ming Navy said that it had just been established. Even if the combat power is very strong, whether it is water or land combat, it is never as simple as relying on the combat power of the army. Besides... If the war is protracted and the court cannot afford so much money, I am afraid that the policy of opening the sea to lift the ban will be repeated again."

He took a breath, narrowed his eyes and said, "Qiyun, think about it, if there are ten thousand pirates now, we have to train at least ten thousand soldiers with the same combat power to deal with it. This is only one-on-one, and there are military pay, weapons and training time. How much does it take? How much is the casualties and cost to fight a war? There is no guarantee of victory.

What if we recruit these 10,000 pirates? It means that while we have 10,000 naval troops, the opponent has reduced 10,000 naval troops, becoming a two-to-zero ratio, and there is almost no need to spend time in training. Whether in terms of military spending, the cost of battle, and the determination of victory or defeat, this is a huge profit, so the navy is stepping up preparations for war, where... I hope to win over all the pirates of the Ming Dynasty as much as possible."

Cheng Qi blinked her eyes and smiled, "I know the benefits of recruiting the land, but it's not as clear as the adults. Haha, the adults' statement is like a carefully calculated businessman. The beauty of Putuo Mountain has already accepted the imperial envoy for the imperial envoy. Is the adults' envoy? As for the other three most powerful pirates, the man is intensifying contact with others. I hope they can save us trouble."

Yang Ling felt relieved after hearing this, and smiled and said, "Okay, let me know the specific measures and means when you have a look. I am not as good as the commander of the navy war. Mr. Peng, I will not interfere with the details. A layman will become an expert. I will understand the reason, lure them for profit, scare them for power, and use the means of instigating the rebellion and recruitment. You are far better than me, and I will not interfere with you, so you will be the leader."
To be continued...
