North Zhili, Dagokou.
There were dozens of ships docked sparsely in the port, which looked very desolate.
A few decades ago, this was the largest port along the entire North Zhili coast.
Due to its geographical location, Dagukou is very close to Tianjin Wei, and merchant ships from the south often choose to dock here.
However, during the Chongzhen period, there were successive wars, which led to a sharp decrease in the number of merchants doing sea trade.
Even those who continue to engage in maritime trade mostly go to the West and Southeast Asia, and rarely go to the north.
When the Qing army entered the customs and took over Beizhili, the situation further deteriorated.
Dagu, Beitang, Xinqiao Haikou, Leting, Changli Almost all major coastal towns in North Zhili no longer have any commercial ships docking.
Businessmen are obviously more willing to do some tricks in the south.
Early that morning, Feng Laoqi walked outside the fort as usual, untied his belt, took out the thing and poured water on it.
Not to mention, the urine bubble became full after holding it in all night.
Once the gate is opened and the water is released, it gushes out like a turbulent river.
Feng Laoqi took a long breath.
It feels so fucking good.
After peeing, Feng Laoqi shook the thing again, drained all the urine, and then fastened his belt again.
After yawning and stretching, Feng Laoqi walked back.
Hey, as soon as I entered the fort, I saw Chen Houxi approaching with a charming smile.
"Boss Feng, breakfast is ready for you.
The hot water is also boiled.
Wash your face quickly."
Feng Laoqi gave a noncommittal hum and lazily walked to the only chair in the entire fort and sat down.
Immediately, two soldiers came forward to rub his shoulders and back.
One is fat and the other is thin.
The fat one is called Liu Tiedan, and the thin one is called Sun Toad.
The fort they were in was called Tieshitun.
There are only five people in the entire Tieshi Dun, including Feng Laoqi.
Feng Laoqi is the armor commander of this fort.
The dog went out to fetch water on Tuesday.
Now besides Feng Laoqi, there are only Liu Tiedan, Sun Toad and Chen Houhou in Tieshi Dun.
"Boss Feng, it's not that we're complaining.
The military pay hasn't been paid for two or three months, right?
If this continues, we're really going to have to live on the same side of the wind.
See if you can talk to me and ask for the military pay to be paid earlier.
Send it down."
Sun Toad asked tentatively while beating Feng Laoqi's back.
His eyes were rolling, giving people a very shrewd look.
"Fuck your mother's fart, you dare not dare me to do this.
Lianhua Dun and Dacheng Dun didn't say anything, so why should I take the lead?
When the time comes, I will be embarrassed, and you, Sun Toad, won't even give a fart."
Let it go, hide aside and watch the joke.”
Sun Toad quickly waved his hand and said: "Oh, look at what you said, Boss Feng.
I want to respond to the situation, but my level is not high enough.
You have to come forward, Boss Feng, for this kind of thing."
"Stop hating me, don't we know what you are thinking?"
Feng Laoqi glared at Sun Toad fiercely, then turned his head and closed his eyes.

"Military pay, military pay, even if you take military pay, what can you do?
You can't even see a living person except us within ten miles of this damn place.
Where can you spend the money?
I'm not telling you.
You are not young anymore.
Collect those flowers."
Think about it, save some money to find a wife in the future.
It would be better for you to use it to visit the brothels in the city after you get the military salary, and you are not afraid of dying on the belly of a woman."
After Feng Laoqi finished scolding him, he smacked his mouth, swallowed his mouth, spit, and said: "If you beat it harder, haven't you eaten?"
Sun Toad said aggrievedly: "We also want a wife, but who cares about me?
If a good man doesn't serve as a soldier, I'm afraid I'll have to live alone in this life.
Instead of taking the money to the coffin, it's better to spend it all." happy."
Seeing that Sun Toad still dared to talk back, Feng Laoqi suddenly opened his eyes and cursed like a storm: "You must have taken the wrong medicine.
Which of those girls treats you sincerely and isn't looking at you?"
There are three melons and two dates, and I want to squeeze you dry.
If you don’t have the money, go back there and see if any bitch looks up at you."
"Boss Feng, it would have been fine before.
We can still be regarded as individuals after all.
But since the Qing army entered the pass, we were assigned to the Green Camp.
We are really worse than pigs and dogs.
We get the least military pay, and we can use it for armor and weapons."
We are the worst, but we have the hardest job.
Don’t say that bitch looks down on us, we all look down on ourselves.”
Sun Toad spread his hands, looking like he was cutting meat.
Feng Laoqi was so angry that he tapped Sun Toad with one hand and snorted without saying anything more.
The atmosphere in the Dunbao was a little awkward for a while.
Liu Tiedan and Chen Houhou didn't know whether they should step forward to persuade them.
This kind of scene will happen every three to five times, and they have long been used to it.
In this inhospitable castle, the five of them depended on each other, and some quarrels were nothing at all.
They could just live for a few days.
At this moment, they suddenly heard a shout coming from outside the Dunbao.
Several people instinctively turned their heads to look, only to see Tuesday Dog running all the way.
"Damn it, is this kid rushing to be reincarnated?
He's running so fast."
Feng Laoqi was in a bad mood and didn't like anything.
He stood up with a slap on his thigh, almost ejecting Liu Tiedan who was beating his back behind him.
He walked quickly to the crenel and cursed: "What are you calling?
Are you going to mourn?"
"Boss Feng, open the fort gate quickly, there is something important."
Feng Laoqi thought to himself, "What the hell do you have to do?"
He winked at Chen Houhou and said, "Why the hell are you standing there in a daze to open the fort gate?"
Chen Houhou responded quickly and trotted forward to open the door.
After a while, the door of the fort was opened, and the Tuesday dog walked in quickly.
When he met Feng Laoqi, he said breathlessly: "Boss Feng, we are about to turn our fortunes."
Feng Laoqi sighed and said: "Stop talking about these vain things.

If you can't tell me that you are ugly today, I will skin you."
Tuesday Dog tried hard to calm down and gasped: "That's right, I met a dozen pirates when I went to fetch water.
Their boat was parked at Liaoshi Bay."
"What are the pirates doing here at Dagukou?"
Feng Laoqi raised his eyebrows and found it very difficult to understand.
There are no merchant ships passing by the coast of Beizhili these days, and the pirates can't rob anything here.
As for robbing coastal fishermen, it is even more impossible.
The Qing government had just issued a sea ban not long ago, and all fishermen along the coast had to move away.
Except for the court's navy, they were not allowed to go into the sea.
In this case, even if the pirates went ashore to plunder, they would not be able to get any oil or water.
Could it be that these pirates are out of their minds and want to attack the garrison army?
"Boss Feng, please let me finish.
I wanted to find out what they were going to do, so I got closer to eavesdrop.
Guess what, these pirates were originally active in Denglai, Shandong, and they went north this time.
They came to Dagukou to get in touch with the imperial court.
They wanted to act as spies for the imperial court and monitor every move of the Ming army in Shandong
