Lu Hanqiang took Xu Jie and said goodbye to Sun Chengzong, originally wanting to rush to Beizhen for his own trip, but halfway through, Lu Hanqiang suddenly changed his mind.
Since he knew that Zu Dashou's smuggling channel was to avoid his entire western Liaoning, and directly through the sea, then in order to force Zu Dashou to agree to his conditions, he had to strangle the sea and land together, and strangle the sea route, he did not have a navy, this is a difficult problem, thinking about it, he suddenly thought that he did not have a navy, but he had it in the hands of one person, that is, his business partner, Sun Yuanhua, the governor of Denglai in Shandong.
The reason why Sun Yuanhua is his business partner is because he is still ordering red-coated cannons from him, and he has earned enough silver, solved part of his military expenses, and alleviated the governor's financial difficulties.
Sun Yuanhua's official position is the governor of Denglai, and the governor of Denglai is one of the three governors of the Ming court, and the area under his control is too large, among which Sun Yuanhua now controls one of the only two navies left in the Ming Dynasty, that is, the Shandong Navy, and this Shandong Navy is huge.
At the time of the previous governor Yuan Keli, he built ships and recruited sailors for the navy, at its peak, its scale had reached 40,000 people, the reason why the Ming Dynasty was so financially constrained, still spared no effort to build this navy, its purpose was to prevent the Houjin landing in Shandong to attack Tianjin and attack Beijing, its role can be described as significant.
And now, Sun Yuanhua has replaced Yuan Keli. is more concerned about the navy, although in the first two years, the financial constraints of the imperial court have been so tight that there is no appropriation, and the scale of the navy has not been expanded, not only has it not expanded, but it has shrunk a lot relatively speaking, but Sun Yuanhua has found a way to strengthen the army, for example, Sun Yuanhua himself is an expert in casting artillery.
With his scientific research team, he directly built the most advanced warship cannon at that time, and with Sun Yuanhua's efforts, Shandong's naval army already had no less than 20 gunboats, and such gunboats were also the most advanced in the world at that time.
But Sun Yuanhua's ending was also sad, when Kong Youde's troops went east to besiege Dengzhou, Dengzhou was in an emergency, and Sun Yuanhua, who was defending here, still believed that he could appease Kong Youde and neglected to take precautions.
Kong Youde took the opportunity to let more than 300 of his subordinates surrender, infiltrated Dengzhou City, conspired with Geng Zhongming and others in the city, and took advantage of the night when people were asleep, attacked inside and outside, occupied Dengzhou City, and captured Sun Yuanhua and Ming garrison Song Guanglan, sub-patrol Wang Mei and other officials.
The general soldier Zhang Dake held on to Shuicheng for several days, and finally because he was outnumbered, Shuicheng fell, and Zhang Keda committed suicide in Taipinglou after killing his wife and concubine.
Sun Yuanhua soon fled back to Tianjin, where he was executed by the Ming government and Yu Dacheng was deposed.
But now the situation is different, because he replaced the Guanning Iron Cavalry, therefore, Guanning Wu Xiang, who was transferred to Shandong two years later to participate in the counterinsurgency, advanced to this year, especially he also prepared a sea ship for him, and directly killed Shandong at sea, so Sun Yuanhua got rid of his fate of being killed, and began to continue to sit in the position of the governor of Denglai peacefully, and the general soldier of Denglai who was in charge of the sailor did not kill his wife and committed suicide, so calculated, Lu Hanqiang is the great benefactor of these two people, of course, These two people don't know that Lu Hanqiang saved himself in this history, and Lei Feng may be this kind of resistance.
For whether he can move Sun Yuanhua to contribute to himself, patrol the coastal area of western Liaoning to fight smuggling, and directly confront Zu Dashou, Lu Hanqiang expressed confidence, first, in terms of Sun Yuanhua's character, he is a patriotic person, there is no doubt about this, although later his subordinates produced a lot of traitors, became the cradle of traitors, but this has nothing to do with Sun Yuanhua, but it is related to the environment of the entire Ming Dynasty, in the history of the previous life, the Ming Dynasty court building has collapsed, and there are many people who have no way to do things at both ends, but now it is not true, Because the strong Huang Taiji in history has been beaten by himself, and he is helpless to be blocked in front of his house this time, so the future traitors still did not consider surrendering.
The topic is a bit far away.
The second point, Lu Hanqiang believes that what can convince Sun Yuanhua is that he is pinching Sun Yuanhua's pigtail, what is this pigtail, that is, the Hongyi cannon purchased from him, as long as he buys fifty red-clothed cannons, Sun Yuanhua can earn more than 200,000 taels of silver on his body, so this time he decided not to go empty-handed, and is ready to continue to buy fifty red-clothed cannons as his own meeting gift, and this is also what he urgently needs.
The first fifty cannons were dragged by themselves and installed on the Daling River fortress, and the other fifty cannons that were about to be delivered, Lu Hanqiang was ready to install him in Montenegro, if he said that he would take Panshan next spring, there would also be a need for red-coated cannons to defend the city, so it would be absolutely invincible to go with Sun Yuanhua to negotiate terms with an arms order, you look at it in history, when a country sells arms to another country, it is not all accompanied by political conditions, so okay, this time I will also use the arms contract to talk to you about politics, not to mention that this evidence is still justified.
The reason why Lu Hanqiang decided to go to Shandong to find Sun Yuanhua and not take the land route is that the horseback riding is too bumpy, and the most important thing is that the war between Wu Sangui and Kong Youde is still going on, the soldiers are in chaos, there are no little fat men and Gao Xu around him, and his life is worrying, and now Lu Hanqiang has seriously cherished his life, of course, according to the high-sounding saying, he cherishes his life for the country.
Especially now with a Xu Jie, this small fan, not only can not protect himself, but he has to protect him, just himself and Xu Jie, these two brushes, in this troubled world, I don't know how to die, I don't know how to die Another one is that he has not been to Huludao Port for a long time, and his own special economic zone has been inspected, Lu Hanqiang is very worried about the construction of Hulu Island, and he is afraid that the construction of Hulu Island will go astray, because in the future, his own logistics supplies and sources of money and food will all depend on Hulu Island, and there can be no mistakes here.
So Lu Hanqiang decided to take Xu Jie to Hulu Island, and then after inspecting the situation of Huludao, he took a southbound sea boat to cross the sea directly to Dengzhou in Shandong, and went ashore in Dengzhou.
When Lu Hanqiang rushed to Hulu Island with Xu Jie, the official in charge of the management of Huludao Port rushed to the port as soon as possible to greet his top boss Lu Hanqiang.
Lu Hanqiang looked at the port director who was still sweating profusely in the cold wind, and said with a smile, "What makes you so busy, can it be said that Huludao Port is on fire?"
