readx At around nine o'clock in the morning of the next day, Zhao Lie got up as usual and practiced martial arts with everyone in the schoolyard.
In these troubled times, Zhao Lie did not dare to relax for a moment.
This skill is the foundation of a life and a life, and it must not be wasted for a moment.
When Zhao Lie was finally concentrating on his archery skills, Zhao Haiming came to the school grounds and watched silently as his son's arrows hit the target.
He smiled with relief, told Huang Han beside him, and returned quietly.
After Zhao Lie changed his clothes, he followed Zhao Haiming's instructions and came to the study room.
He saw Zhao Haiming and Li Mingyu chatting and laughing happily with a cup of fragrant tea.
Zhao Lie went in and greeted everyone one by one.
After sitting down, Zhao Haiming gave a brief gesture and Mr.
Li introduced him in his gentle voice.
Wu Zhiwang was quite kind and allocated 5,000 shi of food, 30,000 taels of silver, and some cloth to support him.
However, there will be no assistance for the victims in the future.
Denglai will support several islands along the coast of Liaodong.
One hundred thousand soldiers and civilians were helpless, and they were really powerless.
Afterwards, Zhao Haiming and Li Mingyu contacted the government offices at all levels, and got four thousand stones of grain and more than twenty thousand silver.
The rest was lost.
This is what it was supposed to be.
Governor Denglai, who had wiped out the big business, did not intervene, which was considered the best result.
"Father, please bring me craftsmen who make guns, cannons, and ships."
Zhao Lie was most concerned about this kind of manpower.
"Lie'er, my father asked for more than ten gunsmith families.
There are only five cannon-making families, and they can only make large and small flanges.
As for the shipbuilding craftsman families, there is really a shortage, there are only two families, and there are a few apprentices.
"Zhao Haiming has also tried his best.
He has been very busy these days.
Even his commander has personally gone into battle.
You can imagine how busy he is.
"Father, Mr.
Li has worked so hard," Zhao Lie is not the first brother.
He is well aware of the unspoken rules of the Ming Dynasty's officialdom.
Liao's salary is directly related to the life and death of the Ming Dynasty.
Why don't you just drift away?
Greedy interest groups are just accounting.
Compared with this time, there are many benefits.
I don’t think about the future once the Ming Dynasty is no longer around, it will only be easier for Li Zicheng and the Manchu Qing Dynasty in the end.
In the future, the nobles of the Ming Dynasty will have their homes confiscated and beheaded, which is also retribution.
"Lie'er, when will you go to sea?"
Zhao Haiming was most concerned about Zhao Lie's maiden voyage.
This was a ship-to-ship battle, but there was no other way.
Zhao Lie would not listen to anyone's advice and must go to sea in person.
"Father, my son plans to go on an expedition the day after tomorrow.
I believe he will be victorious."
Zhao Lie knew his father's worries well, so he acted confidently.
Zhao Haiming stopped talking, sighed, and drank tea without saying a word.
"Father, my child needs an island offshore as a base to store baggage and station ships.

It's best if it doesn't freeze all year round."
With Zhao Lie's current familiarity with the Yellow Sea, he could only turn to Zhao Haiming for help.
Zhao Haiming pondered for a moment.
This location is north and east of Denglai.
There are frequent naval patrols, which is very inconvenient.
"More than thirty or forty miles southeast of Jinghaiwei, there are three islands, Dashanzi Island, Ershanzi Island, Sanshanzi Island, and Hong Kong The deep water is wide and can accommodate lucky ships, which is the defense line of our Weihai Navy.
Only nearby fishing boats gather to shelter from the wind, and the Weihai Navy berths occupy it.
In the future, the fishing boats can be driven to Sanshanzi Island to avoid the wind."
Zhao Haiming took a sip of tea.
"In addition, Jinghaiwei's Shidao Bay is wide and deep, suitable for building ports and ships.
It and Weihaiwei are under the same jurisdiction of Wendeng Camp.
The land on the seaside is barren.
I don't think Jinghaiwei can make it difficult for us."
Zhao Lie noted down two locations and decided to investigate on the spot himself.
In the next few days, the fleet prepared enough luggage, soldiers and armor, and medical kits.
At the beginning of August 29th, the fifth year of Tianqi, it was cloudy and light windy.
Fuhai, Hailong, Seal, Seal, Canglong, Cangyun and Cangyu raised sail and set off.
Zhao Haiming and Zhao Qin did not Zhao Haiming came to the dock to see him off because of his commanding status, while Zhao Qin couldn't bear to see Zhao Lie going into danger.
Zhao Meng led Zhao Feng and Zhao E to the dock to see them off.
The two children were in tears again.
No matter how young they were, they knew the risks of the sea.
They were afraid that the second brother would not be able to come back.
There was no departure ceremony, and the trip was kept strictly confidential.
The officers and soldiers were not allowed to tell their families where they were going, and almost no one came to say goodbye.
After exchanging good words with Zhao Meng and comforting Zhao Feng and Zhao E, Zhao Lie boarded the Fuhai.
Fuhai finally weighed anchor.
Zhao Lie stood on the deck and waved goodbye to his brother and sister.
The deepest impression left on Zhao Lie was that it was deserted.
At the dock, a few lonely figures, accompanied by a few relatives, Zhao Lie embarked on an unknown voyage.
Two days later, Zhao Lie first arrived at Shidao Bay.
After a brief survey, he determined that Shidao is a rare natural harbor.
It faces the sea to the east, has deep water and a wide bay, making it suitable for setting up a port.
The flat and vast terrain is more suitable.
Build a shipyard.
This is a God-given location to build a shipyard.
Zhao Lie was relieved.
It started off smoothly.
Three days later, Zhao Lie happily boarded Dashanzi Island.
After exploring Ershanzi Island, Sanshanzi Island, and Dashanzi Island, and confirming that this island was indeed a natural harbor, Zhao Lie was in a good mood.
His base was finally It was confirmed that Zhao Lie led people around the island.
The island was long from east to west, narrow from north to south, slightly gentle in the northern half, and steep in the south.
There were suitable ports in both the north and south.
Finally, after discussing with the captains, Zhao Lie decided that the northern part was flat.
Set up ports everywhere.
After everything was completed, Zhao Lie ordered the Sea Dog and Cang Yu to return to Weihai to ask for help from Zhao Haiming.

Five hundred Liao people were transported from Weihai and materials were used to build ports, trestles, houses, and guard forts on the island. .
Zhao Lie estimated that after several projects were completed, there would not be much flat land left on the island.
After the two ships returned, Zhao Lie stayed on the island for a day.
At the beginning of the next day, the fleet sailed straight to the southeast.
Zhao Lie looked at the disappearing island, looked at his small fleet of five ships, and thought about Zheng Zhilong. , Liu Xiang, Li Kuiqi and others often have a fleet of hundreds of ships, and they can only sigh that there is a long way to go.
Since its founding in the early 15th century, the Ryukyu Kingdom has relied on it to communicate between Northeast Asia and Southeast Asia.
It relied on the central empire of the Ming Dynasty to actively develop foreign trade.
It was a God-given opportunity.
The Ming Dynasty and Japan were at odds with each other, and much of the trade between the two countries was transited through the Ryukyu Kingdom.
The Ryukyu people benefited greatly from this.
The huge profits generated by the Ryukyu people every year from the transit trade attracted coveted hungry wolves.
The Ryukyu country was small and weak, like a child holding a treasure.
In 1609, the lord of Satsuma Domain in Kyushu, Shimazu Iehisa, sent Hisaka Kawasaki as the general general, more than 100 warships, samurai and 3,000 ashigaru to invade Ryukyu, defeated Ryukyu Kingdom's poor army, and plundered King Shoning of the Ryukyus and members of the royal family went to Satsuma, and the treasury's century-old savings were plundered by Satsuma.
It also enriched the treasury that had been empty due to the failure of the Shimazu and Tokugawa clans in their struggle for the shogunate, and restored the power of southern Japan in one fell swoop.
Satsuma used the tip of a knife to force King Shoning to sign, recognizing Satsuma's actual control over Ryukyu, and Satsuma's monopoly on Ryukyu's foreign trade taxes.
It also has the right to garrison troops, cede the northern Amami Islands and Satsuma, etc.
At this point, King Shangning has to return.
However, after returning to the country, the domestic political affairs were controlled by the pro-Japanese faction, and the king no longer had real power.
The Satsuma clan secretly monitored the Ryukyu Islands.
The Japanese are really obsessed with items from generation to generation, and the Twenty-One Articles of later generations are still in existence today, and Satsuma's excuse for invading Ryukyu is still as bad as searching for missing persons.
For example, Ryukyu owes Japan the cost of conquering the imperial court.
Japan's imperial conquest has nothing to do with Ryukyu.
As for the excuse of the Ryukyu Navy to attack the ships of Ming Dynasty merchants heading to Japan, it is even more jaw-dropping.
Ryukyu still has to rely on the trade tax between the Ming Dynasty and Japan to survive, okay?
Well, how can you ruin your own job?
If there really is no lower limit, others would be beyond the reach of the Japanese.
Of course, when Zhao Lie went to Ryukyu, he didn't know many of these stories.
Zhao Lie had never studied history in detail in his previous life.
Zhao Lie only roughly knew that Japan was gradually controlling Ryukyu at this time, not to mention that he didn't care about many of them.
He would just rob them.
Zhao Lie was fighting against the typhoon.
It had been a peaceful journey, and the fleet had approached the northwest of Ryukyu.
At this time, a cyclone came over.
Although it did not reach the level of a hurricane, the small boat of several hundred tons was bumping in the wind and waves.
Zhao Lie was seasick for the first time in his life, and he vomited to the point of vomiting.
Huang Han, Yu Dabao and others were also the same.
However, the experienced sailors still walked methodically through the wind and waves in a zigzag route.
Fortunately, the storm was not too big.
One day later, the wind and waves in the East China Sea calmed down, and the fleet moved smoothly to the southeast.
Not long after, it finally arrived at the route from Japan to Ryukyu Island in the east of Ie Island.
