Zhao Lie didn't know about the tragedy in the south of the city.
That morning, when he arrived at the dock, he ordered his men to serve Shenghua.
Shenghua was about fifty, short in stature, and always smiled at everyone.
"Commander Zhao, Mr.
Zhao, this ship of yours is the largest ship I have ever seen.
It must have cost a lot of money to buy it."
Sheng Hua looked up at the huge hull of the Li Ji and said.
Both of them are now third-grade military generals.
Although Shenghua can be regarded as a Shangguan, he is not too big.
"Mr.
Shanda, this ship is my wife's dowry.
I don't have so much money and food.
This ship costs 80,000 taels of silver."
Zhao Lie shook his head, looking like he couldn't afford it.
It's a push of six, two, and five.
As long as it's a Galen ship, it will push to the Portuguese.
There is no way such so-called superiors should be allowed to find excuses to get angry.
"Master Xiao Zhao, I know your father very well.
Please don't lie to me.
Your Zhao family has spent all its wealth to recruit three thousand soldiers.
Who knows about Denglai?"
Sheng Hua said with a smile.
"What Mr.
Shanda said is true.
In order to prevent my uncle's defeat in Liaodong from happening again, my father dissipated all his family wealth.
My wife also provided some money and recruited some warriors.
This led to the great victory in Zhuozhou. ."
Zhao Lie had a grimace on his face.
"The Battle of Zhuozhou was also a battle.
There are only less than 2,000 soldiers left.
Our Zhao family has no money to recruit again.
If there is another national war, our Zhao family will be powerless."
Zhao Lie said that he had no money or food to support his family, which means clearly.
Sirs and other officials in the imperial court should not be so wary.
Zhao Lie has already planned to send the two thousand presidents to Jeju to make up for their losses, reduce the Zhao family's prowess, and hide their strength and bide their time.
This time the limelight is not small.
"Well, as a Denglai general, I might go out to fight for my life one day."
Sheng Hua also felt deeply that Denglai generals are difficult to be.
It is extremely dangerous to go to war to establish slaves.
Defeat and death are the consequences.
Ordinary things.
"Shangda people, this ship is huge, and it travels quickly and smoothly.
It only takes two or three days to get here, which is much faster than the land route.
Shanda people, please come on board."
Zhao Lie said with cupped hands.

"Okay, okay, I will also see how fast Xiyi's ships are this time."
Sheng Hua responded with a smile on his face.
Just like Zhao Lie said.
The Li Ji drove smoothly and quickly, arriving at Jinghaiwei City in less than three days, which made Sheng Hua marvel.
A group of more than two hundred people landed in batches in small boats.
The simple trestle southwest of Jinghai Acropolis could not accommodate the big ship Li Ji.
A group of people were waiting at the pier to see the remaining generals of Jinghai Guard who had been waiting for them.
"Mr.
Shanda and Mr.
Zhao have been working hard all the way, and my subordinates are waiting to welcome you two adults into the city."
Yiwei commander Tongzhi Wu Hai, commanding Qianshi Huo Gushan, commanding Qianshi Wang Dong, and the governor Tang Liang all smiled.
He came forward with greetings.
After everyone exchanged greetings, they entered the official office of the Acropolis together.
"I am accompanying Mr.
Zhao Lie to take up the post of Jinghaiwei this time.
It fully demonstrates the praise of the imperial court and the capital for Mr.
Zhao's defeat of the slaves in Zhuozhou and the beheading of thousands of people."
At this time, Mr.
Shenghua Sheng no longer smiled at all.
The appearance, plastic surgery, sitting upright, showing the true character of Shangguan.
"My lords and Lord Zhao Lie are former colleagues, and we hope to work together to run errands for the imperial court in the future."
Sheng Hua handed over his hand.
"The lower official will definitely assist Mr.
Zhao in handling the military affairs of the city."
Wu Hai said respectfully, his posture was very low, and he did not have the majesty of the previous superior officials at all.
Other generals also agreed, and the scene was extremely harmonious for a while.
Zhao Lie also responded with a smile.
He knew in his heart that such an old official would not show any clues on his face.
As for the one who was unhappy in his heart.
Whether there are any minor moves will have to be seen in the future.
"Since Mr.
Chang went out with the army, the position of command has been vacant, and many general affairs cannot be handled.
Now that Mr.
Zhao is here, we have a backbone."
Wu Hai's fat face was full of smiles and his expression was humble.
At this time, the friendship was over, and everyone relaxed and chatted for a few words.
"Master Wu is the old boss of the Japanese general in the past, and he has always taken good care of me.
I will have a lot of help in the future.
I hope Master Wu will not refuse."
Wu Hai is so knowledgeable and has been happy to cooperate with Zhao Lie in the past.
Of course the relationship needs to be maintained.
Wu Hai immediately smiled even brighter.
"Subordinates dare not try their best."
Everyone else was envious of him.
Fatty Wu was indeed a roly-poly.

Look, he showed no hesitation in giving compliments to a former subordinate who was now in his early twenties.
The soft words were delivered so quickly and the posture was so low, as if he had been Zhao Lie's subordinate earlier.
Now this old boy turned around and became Zhao Lie's direct descendant again.
Not everyone can achieve this level of skill.
Huo Gushan couldn't do it.
He echoed a few words, but he really couldn't give in.
He had no choice but to be a person who wanted to save face and suffered.
This was also the reason why it was difficult to get promoted for many years.
Although he was also familiar with Zhao Lie, when Zhao Lie took office at Zuo Qianhu He was the one who accompanied her, but he really couldn't do it, it was embarrassing.
"Sir Huo, when I first entered Jinghaiwei, I was accompanied by Mr.
Huo.
I have always been thinking about him.
This is a good thing."
Zhao Lie asked with a smile.
"Thank you for your concern, Mr.
Zhao.
I admire Mr.
Zhao very much for this great victory in the capital.
I, Jinghaiwei, have also become famous in the capital.
Jane is in the heart of the emperor.
I would like to congratulate Mr.
Zhao."
Zhao Lie said.
If Huo Gushan didn't know how to do it, he would never be in this position today.
For a moment, congratulations were heard everywhere.
This was not considered a compliment.
No matter how Zhao Lie relied on his father to set up special attacks, after all, he had personally experienced the battle formation and killed the enemy chief.
This was the glory of a military commander.
How many dandies dared to fight with him?
Those who build slaves and fight are judged by superiors and superiors.
Zhao Lie responded with a smile one by one.
Immediately, there was great harmony in the official hall.
In the evening, everyone held a banquet in the restaurant to welcome Zhao Lie and wash away the dust.
Everyone left happily.
Early on the next morning, Zhao Lie asked Li Ji to take Shenghua back to Dengzhou, and he led everyone to the dock to say goodbye.
Next, Zhao Lie, together with Wu Hai and others, began to take inventory of Jinghaiwei's warehouses, farming, and army preparation.
After three days of calculation and counting, Xu Hong's commander finally presented Jinghaiwei's family background to Zhao Lie.
Zhao Lie took a quick look and found that Jinghaiwei was extremely poor now.
There was not a single piece of iron armor in the warehouse, not even ten pieces of cotton armor, only a dozen broken fire blunderbuss, only a dozen old and weak mules and horses, more than twenty cattle, and four hundred gunpowder.
Yu Jin, four tiger crouching cannons, one of which is cracked, more than 400 spears, more than a hundred of which are rotten, iron shields are all gone, more than a hundred waist knives, less than 30 of them are usable, and less than 200 of the war coats are usable. .
More than two hundred stones of rice, flour and miscellaneous grains, and more than two thousand seven hundred and sixty taels of silver.
This is the entire family fortune.
The reason why it is so miserable is because Jinghaiwei entered the capital and wiped out almost all the soldiers and armor.
These are life-saving items.
You can't be too careful when fighting Jiannu.

Chang Runing It has to be done for self-preservation.
Therefore, Jinghaiwei's warehouse is basically exhausted.
This is due to the inconvenience of marching, otherwise there will be no Tiger Crouching Cannon left.
Although this thing has a short range, it is a killing weapon after all.
It does not move at all, so it survives.
Li Mingyu and Xu Hong were also amused when they saw Zhao Lie's bitter face.
Mr.
Zhao had always been very protective of money and food, so of course he was not happy to face such a poor family.
"Sir, it is understandable that Jinghaiwei is in such a difficult situation now.
This is the case for all the military warehouses of King Qin of Jing."
Li Mingyu said with a smile.
"I know of course that this embarrassment is unexpected.
As for these things, many of them were captured by Jian slaves.
Our Ming army has always been the transportation brigade of Jian slaves.
If we don't have swords or armor, we can ask Ming Dynasty for them."
Zhao Lie mocked.
Huang Han, Xu Hong and others laughed.
They really looked down upon the pitiful combat power of the Ming army, especially Yu Dabao's cackle of laughter which was extremely harsh.
Li Mingyu was speechless and helpless as he lowered his head to sip the tea.
Among the people here, he was the only one who still missed the Ming Dynasty.
A large area of land was lost to Jiannu, what else could he say, it was shameless.
"Okay, let's talk about how to build Jinghaiwei into a paradise like Zuo Qianhusuo."
Zhao Lie said.
"Sir, the most important thing now is to determine whether our army should focus on Jinghaiwei or Shidao."
Huang Han said.
Zhao Lie knew what he meant.
If Jinghai Guard was given priority, then more money would be spent on renovating the inside and outside of the acropolis.
It should be noted that although the Jinghai Acropolis had been renovated, it was only the city wall.
There were also barracks, warehouses, and government offices inside the acropolis.
They are all dilapidated.
In addition, there is the issue of the relocation of Shidao soldiers.
The remaining two thousand soldiers are still stationed in two places, and the strength of the Polu army has been dispersed.
"Shidao is still the main force.
Jinghai Acropolis only needs five hundred generals.
In addition, there are 300 guards.
Shidao has 1,500 troops, and Chishan's 500 troops are enough."
Zhao Lie is quite confident in his family's fighting power.
As long as the Jiannu army does not come, the Polu army can cope with it, but is it possible that the Jiannu army can come from across the sea?
Zhao Lie welcomed them to do this, but he was afraid that Huang Taiji was not so stupid.
"Furthermore, as long as we start to equalize the land along the road from Zuo Qianhusuo, we will soon have two to three thousand troops ready, so the defense of the acropolis will not be a problem.
Shidao is the foundation of us and we can never ignore it. , Such envious Shangguan colleagues were salivating as they stared at Shi Dao.
"Zhao Lie knew very well about the greed of Ming officials.
There was another burst of laughter in the room.
They had seen the officials of the Ming Dynasty robbing them openly and covertly, as evidenced by Yang Jingtang and his like.
"Xu Hong, plan out the expenses for equalizing land for each thousand households in Jinghaiwei, preparing troops, food and wages, etc.

These must be transferred from Jeju, so make preparations early."
Zhao Lie also had a headache, and he also needed money.
One hundred thousand dozen At the end of the day, it must be insufficient.
Let’s allocate it in batches.
Xu Hong agreed with a bang.
Li Mingyu watched on the sidelines.
This was his first time entering the decision-making circle of Zhao Lie.
In the past, he had dealt with official matters.
This time he saw that these young people could discuss anything with Zhao Lie, but Once the decision is made, it must be implemented immediately.
It is indeed refined and fast, which is different from the process in the officialdom of the Ming Dynasty
