Lu Hanqiang narrowed his eyes, his vigilance against Wu Sangui must not be said to anyone, because no one believes it when he says it, but this vigilance must be maintained at all times, although in the history of the previous life, many outstanding generals of the Ming Dynasty surrendered to the Manchu Qing, but in fact, first of all, this Ming Dynasty did completely disappoint them, and they could no longer see the prospect of maintenance, but this is not a reason, those traitors in the previous history, in their hearts, in fact, what is most lacking is not loyalty to the Ming Dynasty, It's loyalty to one's own parental group.
For example, now to be standing behind himself and becoming the head town of Shanhaiguan Shi Kefa, no matter what his evaluation ability in history is, but he has done what those contemporary elites have not done, what Shi Kefa did, finally broke away from the loyalty to this court, and sublimated into loyalty to this parent state, loyalty to his mother, therefore, in the eyes of all people in later generations, they have forgotten his mediocrity, forgotten all his mistakes, and only remembered his contribution and loyalty to this mother family.
But Lu Hanqiang couldn't say these words to Zhou Chujun, so he could only turn his head and stare at Zhou Chujun and said: "You remember, a person's loyalty is definitely not said in the mouth, shown in the face, often a person's loyalty will fall apart in the face of the greater good, I will tell you the truth, in this world, in addition to trusting your brothers, I am very suspicious of anyone's loyalty, and only in this way can I take you further." ” Zhou Chujun was moved by Lu Hanqiang's heartfelt trust, and at the same time, he wanted to persuade Lu Hanqiang to misunderstand Wu Sangui again, but at this time, there was another big boat, slowly approaching the command flagship, and on the big boat, a big flag was fluttering high, and Zhang Dake, the chief officer of the Denglai Naval Division, arrived.
Now Zhang Dahe can be described as high-spirited and full of ambition.
Originally, as the chief officer of the Denglai Naval Division, there were no more than 100 ships and less than 10,000 soldiers, if it weren't for Sun Yuanhua to raise funds everywhere, this Daming Naval Division, which guarded tens of thousands of miles of coastline and took into account the defense of North Korea and Houjin, would have existed in name only.
But hope always appears in the most desperate time, just when Zhang Dake was desperate, Lu Hanqiang stretched out his most powerful hand, funded him one million taels of silver at one time, and sent the most powerful general to form a marine corps, so that he could expand the entire naval division warship to more than 300 within half a year, and expand his men to 20,000, although those warships were made of new wood and could not withstand too much wind and waves, but with Lu Hanqiang's words, he was full of confidence.
At that time, Lu Hanqiang told him: "As long as your sailors go to sea and carry out external attacks and looting, even if these warships are one-time consumables, then you still have enough money to recreate such consumables, and the scale will be larger, under such a virtuous circle, what are you afraid of Especially the chief officer, I now make a formal promise to you, this time you take my marines to attack Niuzhuang, and half of all the captures will go to your Shandong Navy, Niuzhuang, that is the salt capital of the entire Northeast, that is the money bag of the Manchu Dynasty, There are countless wealthy businessmen there, all of them are rich and rival countries, if you go to rob them, you will definitely be robbed of your softness.
In case you don't capture it, I solemnly promise you once again that the one million taels of silver I lent you will be written off, and at the same time, I will lend you another one million to build a more powerful fleet of sailors until you are all over the world. ” Zhang Dake thinks that Lu Hanqiang's statement is right, follow the robbers, and have meat to eat at any time, this is his understanding, you don't see, those nine-sided border troops who couldn't eat before, now they don't want a tael of silver from the court, and as a result, they are rich and well-equipped every day, and they are looking around with knives all day long, looking for objects that can be looted, in this world, what is more and faster than robbing the most money With Lu Hanqiang's promise, Zhang Dake already thinks that he has absolute strength to cross the world, so whether it is out of the national war, or out of his own wealth, as well as the powerful sailor who is haunted by his dreams every day, this time Zhang Dake went all out to follow Lu Hanqiang's instructions, and went out to raid Houjin's money bag Niu Zhuang.
The whole fleet was moving forward, and at this time he received a small boat express that Lu Hanqiang, the governor of Liaodong in the Ming Dynasty, actually risked the sea and boarded the flagship of Zhou Chujun's Marine Corps in a small boat, which had to make Zhang Dake shocked.
Zhang Dake was shocked not because he was afraid that Lu Hanqiang would snatch his power, because he knew that Lu Hanqiang was the wisest person, and he would never replace himself as a naval warfare expert with naval warfare techniques that he didn't understand at all, but he was really worried that his God of Wealth would make a mistake, in case Lu Hanqiang had three long and two short, then his powerful naval dream would be wiped out with Lu Hanqiang, which he didn't want to see, so he immediately took the middle position of the entire fleet. directly drove his handsome ship to Zhou Chujun's warship, and came to meet Lu Hanqiang for the first time.
The old navy is the old navy, this point is not acceptable, Lu Hanqiang looked at the rough sea, between the two big ships just built a narrow springboard, and then the neat Ming general armor Zhang Dake, just walked over directly as if he was walking on the ground, and on the trembling springboard, he looked at himself with a happy expression, such a miraculous skill simply made Lu Hanqiang ashamed of himself, compared with him, he stood on this big ship, and his face was pale and impetuous.
"I don't know that the Inspector personally came to the fleet to guide, the lower officer is really out of reach, and please forgive the sin," Zhang Dake, who was far away, kept accusing him, his demeanor was respectful, and his expression was sincere, which had nothing to do with civil and military affairs, this had nothing to do with official rank, this had nothing to do with age, and it was about who could bring who the opportunity to realize his dreams.
Lu Hanqiang immediately took the old general's hand affectionately, and explained with a smile: "I just came to see the excitement, this countryman, I can't change the problem of watching the excitement, but don't affect General Zhang's command of the fleet." ” "With the Inspector in charge, my heart is more confident, how to influence it" Zhang Dake laughed heartily, really rejuvenated and childlike, and then looked at the dark and dreary sea, with a frightened expression on his face: "If you want to say that you are indeed too bold, you dare to catch up with the fleet in a small boat, in case there are three long and two short, then it is not your personal safety problem, but the loss of the entire Fuliao Army and the entire Ming Dynasty, and the last general will also ask the Inspector not to do such a risky thing in the future." ” Lu Hanqiang touched his nose in embarrassment: "In fact, at the beginning, I saw that the fleet was not far away, so I dared to run over, who knew that this Wangshan ran a dead horse, and the same is true of this sea, speaking of conscience, I am afraid now." ” t1706231537:
