At night, Alexandra's mood was not very stable.
The reason was that she had just become pregnant and Zhao Lie was about to travel far away and fight against the most vicious Jiu slaves.
She was extremely frightened.
Zhao Lie also tried to comfort Alexandra, but he felt helpless.
The Ming Dynasty was coming to chaos, and he was still struggling to survive.
After struggling for several years, he was just getting started, and he had no capital to relax.
Zhao Lie decided to spend the next few days with Alexandra.
After breakfast the next day, he went for a walk with Alexandra and talked more.
Alexandra was in a good mood and her face was full of happiness. , the already fair skin flushed, even more beautiful.
However, good times did not last long.
At early noon on the second day, the Chishan government office sent a horse to report to Shidao.
Zhang Ke and General Zhang issued an urgent order to gather troops in Dengzhou.
Zhao Lie looked at the Denglaidu Commander's warrant in front of him at the Shidao Official Office and sneered silently.
He handed the warrant to Zhao Meng.
Zhao Meng was furious when he saw it.
If a small thousand households sent more than a thousand troops, they must have all the soldiers and armor, otherwise they would be punished by military law.
What a dog warrant, Yang Jingtang was just avenging his private revenge.
He completely ignored the national crisis and only cared about his own interests.
He was dressed like a beast.
"Brother, why do you have to fight with this despicable villain?
Sooner or later, I will make him look good."
Zhao Lie listed Yang Jingtang as one of the people who must be eliminated.
Sooner or later, he will have his head removed.
Zhao Haiming received an order from Dusi a few days ago to renovate the ships of Weihai Navy.
He arrived in Dengzhou five days later and transported the Denglai army north to Tianjin Weiqinwang.
Commander Zhao, who had experienced battles for a long time, was also extremely surprised.
What his second son Zhao Lie said came true.
Jiannu indeed took a detour to Duoyan and attacked Ji Town, approaching the capital.
The capital was in danger.
Zhao Haiming retreated from the others and thought about it indoors.
He found that over the past few years, there were almost no omissions in what Zhao Lie said.
Every step of the Ming Dynasty's situation was based on the estimation of the second son.
The wealth was exhausted, Liaodong was ruined, and the civil strife in Shanxi and Shaanxi continued. , established slaves and invaded the capital.
Only the civil unrest was not as serious as Zhao Lie feared.
He couldn't help but sigh that his sons have grown up and can now stand on their own and have unique vision.
Thinking long term, from today on, he should let go completely.
Zhao Lie is the head of the family.
Zhao Haiming came out of the room and immediately ordered the generals to gather.
The army was ordered to be reorganized within three days and set sail for Dengzhou.
As for Zhao Lie's expedition, he had already prepared for it.
At this time, all the Weihai navy knew that Mr.
Zhao had spent countless money in the past few months and established more than 2,000 servants to station at Shidao, where his second son was stationed, for training.
Zhao Haiming's excuse was that the slave establishment was strong and there were unrest in the Dongjiang River.
The Denglai Navy could send troops to Dongjiang and Liaodong at any time.
For its own plan and the Navy's plan, it had to have infantry combat power.

He must not repeat the mistake of his younger brother, who was defeated and died in Liaodong.
Zhao Haiming made these plans to enhance the combat power of Zhao Lie's troops and protect Zhao Lie.
What can others say?
It is common practice for military generals to raise servants.
As long as you can afford it, you can raise thousands of them.
If you have money, just do whatever you want.
Look at how powerful Li Chengliang was when he had nearly 10,000 servants.
The imperial court was also pinching its nose.
Admitted.
What's more, Commander Zhao's younger brother died in the battle in Liaodong, wasn't it because the navy went ashore to escort the baggage and was defeated because of its lack of combat power?
Now Zhao Haiming is spending money to save his life and no one else can say anything.
On November 12, while Zhao Lie was reorganizing his army to prepare for war, he communicated with Chang Runing, commander of Bingjing Haiwei, and left Qianhu's soldiers to plan a direct sea route to Dengzhou.
Master Wan Wangchang agreed.
Of course Chang Runing agreed.
As long as he can't see Zhao Lie at the moment, everything will be easy.
The further away from this plague god, the better.
He has no intention of getting involved in the grudges between Yang Jingtang and the Zhao family.
Just go ahead and fight.
He couldn't afford to offend anyone.
On November 13, the second year of Chongzhen, the Lu army captured 3,000 infantry troops, 1,000 cavalry troops, and 300 artillery troops, nearly 4,000 horses, 50 mules and carriages, food, armor, gunpowder, etc.
The baggage began to board the ship.
The baggage, horses, mules and carriages were the first to board the ship, which delayed the most time.
At the beginning of the second day, the troops boarded the ship.
Two hours later, everyone boarded the ship.
Lunch was eaten on the ship.
After lunch, The fleet sets sail.
Zhao Lie stood on the bow of the Wei Qing and watched Zhao Meng, Li Mingyu, Xu Hong, Tang Xianwen, Alexandra and others on the dock getting further and further away, but Zhao Lie could still clearly think of Alexandra.
Tears in my eyes and I can't bear it in my heart.
He stood on the deck and looked at the more than 20 merchant fleets and the eight escorting warships that were forming in the outer sea.
He steeled his heart and traveled a hundred and a half miles.
Now is not the time for children to love each other, and they have to stay in the Ming Dynasty.
It’s hard to move forward in troubled times.
Zhao Lie didn't know that deep in the dock, a pair of tearful eyes were watching him get on the boat and leave.
Dull horns and waving flags directed the ships in formation to the northeast.
At early noon three days later, the fleet arrived at Weihaihaihai, and Zhao Lie entered Weihaihai Village by clipper boat.
Zhao Haiming was already ready to go, just waiting for the arrival of Zhao Lie's fleet.
At the dock, Zhao Qin and Zhao E came to see her off.
When she learned that Alexandra was pregnant, Zhao Qin was overjoyed.
She was about to have grandchildren. .
However, when she thought of Zhao Lie's expedition to the capital, she and Zhao E were immediately worried.
Zhao Haiming and Zhao Feng were transporting troops and equipment without any big risks, but Zhao Lie led his troops ashore to join the battle.
The soldiers were fierce and the battle was urgent.
Of course, they were worried.
One by one, they were worried.
Tell Zhao Da and Yu Dabao to protect Zhao Lie.

Zhao Qin came back and told Zhao Lie not to be reckless and to put his own safety first in everything.
Until Zhao Haiming couldn't bear to interrupt, Zhao Qin finally said that she and Zhao E would go to Shidao to accompany Alexandra not long ago.
The woman was pregnant and her husband was on an expedition.
It was a lonely time, so she shouldn't be depressed and hurt the fetus.
Zhao Lie was stunned by these words.
Since you are always worried about the fetus, what about the two of us?
Zhao Haiming set out to worship the sea at the pier.
The Weihai Navy's more than ten Dafu ships, more than thirty Haicangniaosha, and more than fifty Cangshan ships sailed out of the water village and headed for the open sea.
When they came to the outer sea to join Galen's fleet, the soldiers of the Weihai Navy looked at the dozens of giant Xiyi ships in front of them in astonishment.
Only a dozen Dafu ships of the Weihai Navy could still compete with Galen's fleet.
Comparing the smallest ships, the others were all too small, especially the ten 800-ton warships that stood like hills, which made Zhao Haiming, Huang Tieshan, Yu Fugui and other bowmen stunned.
Huang Han, Yu Dabao and others rarely went home.
Even when they did, they kept silent about the affairs of the Polu Army.
This was strictly forbidden by Zhao Lie.
They also had no way of knowing the huge strength of Zhao Lie and their children.
It was finally visible today.
A spot.
Zhao Lie asked Zhao Haiming and his escort to board the Huo Qubing and use it as his flagship.
The comfort of the Galen ship was not comparable to that of the Fu ship.
Zhang Keda, the main town of Denglai, has welcomed Dengzhou guards one after another these days.
The soldiers in Weihai Guard, Chengshan Guard and other guards, except for the Dengzhou Guards, are still visible.
At least the personnel are relatively neat, and there is no need to think about armor.
The weapons are quite complete.
The soldiers in other guard posts are old and young, their weapons are many rusty, and they have no morale at all.
They should be counted.
It is not unreasonable to say that the guard station is in hardship, but it is unreasonable to say that a guard station only has a thousand soldiers and cannot gather all the strong soldiers.
He must be afraid of fighting against Jiannu and using the old and the weak to make up for it.
Zhang Ke was so angry that he immediately reprimanded the commanders of Jinshan Guard and Chengshan Guard.
The two also cried and told that many of the soldiers fled when they heard that they had come out to build slaves.
Now it is not easy to get enough of these soldiers.
Zhang Keda really has no power to deal with them.
You must know that they are also third-grade officials.
The emperor did not give him the Shangfang Sword.
He, a warrior, has no way to imitate Yuan Chenghuan, a civil servant, who can kill as a warning to monkeys.
If he does this, just wait for the Yushitai to intervene in him, and the emperor will not be able to protect him.
At noon on this day, the Jinghai guards arrived in Dengzhou.
Zhang Keda learned that Zhao Lie would come to Dengzhou by sea.
Zhang Keda secretly sighed that after all, he was in the yamen and relied on his father.
In Chang Ru Accompanied by Ning, Zhang Keda inspected Jinghaiwei's soldiers.
He found that the soldiers of Jinghai Guard were second only to the soldiers of Dengzhou Guard and Laizhou Guard, which was more than enough.
Zhang Keda also agreed, even if it reaches Jinghaiwei's appearance, some guards have gone too far.
Yang Jingtang and Chang Runing are now strangers.
The meeting was just a greeting, which made many people extremely puzzled.
They were very familiar with each other earlier, but why are they so cold now.
Yang Jingtang is happy to hear Zhao Lie's request for fatherhood this time.

It would be best if you are arrogant and domineering and make Zhang Keda angry.
In this way, Zhang Keda will definitely let you charge forward on the battlefield.
Yang Jingtang thought viciously.
At the end of the day, reports came from the dock.
Weihai Navy Commander Zhao Haiming led the Weihai Navy to Shuicheng, and Wang Qian went to greet him.
The two are old friends, and their relationship is relatively harmonious, except of course when there is a critical moment under Lushun City, when everyone takes care of themselves.
However, today, a tall young general appeared next to Zhao Haiming.
"Master Zhao is finally here.
I am so excited to see him."
Wang Qian said with a smile.
"Your Excellency, you are joking," Zhao Haiming said with a smile, and then with a straight face, he cupped his hands and said, "I am leading the troops of the Weihai Navy here to obey your military orders."
"Act according to Master Zhang's orders," Wang Qian said with a wry smile, "We and the navy are all adopted by stepmothers."
Wang Qian also showed his true feelings when facing his old subordinates.
In the past few years, the navy has been suffering greatly and its wealth has dried up.
The first person to suffer from the reduction in pay and wages is the Navy.
Now that the Ming Dynasty's infantry and cavalry cannot even take care of it, the Navy is even more at risk.
The two commanders also had sympathy for each other.
If it weren't for the fact that the Navy still had some ways to make money, they would have been unable to support themselves.
"Lie'er, I've met Mr.
Wang."
Zhao Haiming looked at Zhao Lie.
"Nephew Zhao Lie, please come to see Mr.
Wang."
Zhao Lie knelt down and bowed to the ground.
"Please get up."
Wang Qian stepped forward to help Zhao Lie up.
"We haven't seen you for several years.
My nephew is so handsome.
Old Zhao, you have a successor."
Wang Qian was not being polite.
The young-looking boy from a few years ago was gone.
In front of him was a tall general with a smile and full of confidence.
"Your Excellency, you are too praised.
The dog is shapeless.
It is used to running wild and cannot be restrained.
I am deeply afraid that it will cause big trouble."
Zhao Haiming said modestly.
He also laid some ambush for some of Zhao Lie's actions.
"Master Wang, father, you two will have a rest first.
The child will go to the General Military Mansion to meet the Lord of the General Town and give orders."
Zhao Lie said.
Of course they let it go.
On the way to the General Military Mansion, Zhao Lie saw the Denglai soldiers and other officers and soldiers from the guard station marching towards Shuicheng.
On the way, Zhao Lie also paid a visit to Chang Runing.
Chang Runing greeted him warmly and his attitude was extremely good.

When Zhao Lie rushed to the main town house to pay his respects, Zhang Keda immediately summoned him.
"Where are the soldiers?"
Zhang Keda asked solemnly without being polite.
"Don't worry, sir, our troops are all in the warships outside Shuicheng."
Zhao Lie knelt down.
"Are they as strong as the former?"
Zhang Keda looked at Zhao Lie intently.
He believed that Zhao Lie understood what he meant.
Don't just use the old and the weak to suit the occasion.
This has been going on for more than two days.
"Lord, our troops are as strong as before."
Zhao Lie reported back.
"Very good, Zhao Lie, this town did not misjudge you, please step back."
Zhang Keda finally smiled.
Zhao Lie said goodbye and rushed back to Shuicheng. s: Thank you for the reward from Dishi Tianmo Monthly Pass.
