On their way to Shidao's camp, Liu Fugui and Zou Huai'en met several cavalrymen who were preparing for the army.
They rushed back from various places to inform various villages about Shidao's troops.
When I returned to the camp, I saw Lan Mingshan, fully clothed, talking with several President Qian, Zhen Fu and others.
Mr.
Wang Qian was unhappy because he was told to stay at Shidao camp and protect Shidao's safety.
What kind of job was this?
"Old Wang, President Han Qian and the adults' guards are all on the expedition this time.
You must know that Shidao Camp is the foundation for adults, and your responsibilities are important."
Lan Mingshan patted his shoulder and consoled him.
"Mr.
Lan, you see, we are all preparing the army.
Why can Liu Fugui go out into battle, but why can't I?"
Lao Wang frowned in dissatisfaction, feeling very resentful.
"Haha, Lao Wang, I can't blame anyone else for this.
Although you are also my old subordinate, it's a pity that we didn't get a tough fight.
Liu Fugui has fought against Jiannu in Tieshan and Zhuozhou.
Master Huang Han named him to go into battle. " Lan Mingshan clicked his lips and said to himself, it's not good for you to compare yourself with anyone.
If you find Liu Fugui, you can compare with this one, so you should accept it.
After hearing this, Lao Wang could only accept his fate.
It was really incomparable.
Liu Fugui had fought hard with both hands and feet.
"Everyone, this is the first time our army has fought against Jiannu.
If you wait until Haosheng takes control of the army, you will definitely win a complete victory.
You must know that our Polu army has fought against Jiannu several times and has never been defeated.
I can't lose face even if I prepare the army," Lan Mingshan said loudly to the crowd.
"As ordered."
Everyone saluted, all very excited.
"Okay, go back and rectify your subordinates, and go out into battle tomorrow at midnight."
Lan Mingshan ordered.
Everyone suddenly accepted the order.
At the beginning of the second day, when it was just dawn, two thousand generals of the army, two thousand generals of soldiers, and the artillery team began to board the ship.
Wang Haizhou's cavalry commanders Qian Qian and Han Jianqian boarded the ship first.
Because they had many horses and the artillery team was slow, they boarded the ship first, and the rest of the team behind them could take care of themselves.
Six merchant ships including Hongzehu and Chaohu.
The giant ship Taishan and Huashan and more than ten Denglai Navy ships entered the port for loading, plus more than ten warships, Just these ships cover most of the bay.
Zhao Haiming, Zhao Qinshi, Alexandra, Li Lin, Zhao Meng, Zhao E and others all went to the port to say goodbye.
Although Zhao Lie has repeatedly said that this is mainly a naval battle, there is not much risk.
But as the family members of the old navy master, we all know that God is the biggest risk, so a farewell is a must.
Zhao Haiming looked at the huge fleet that covered the bay and the thousands of soldiers and soldiers who were boarding the ship.
He couldn't help feeling that the Zhao family was lucky, and he also lamented that his family was getting old.
Zhao Qin and Zhao Lie told themselves to take care of themselves.
He also told Yu Dabao and Zhao Da to pay attention to Zhao Lie's safety.
No matter how much a mother says it is too little for her children to go out.
Alexandra had a conversation with Zhao Lie on the side, and of course she told him to pay attention to safety and not to be aggressive.
She knew that her husband was bold and had gone to battle more than once.

It was the first time for Li Lin to see off Zhao Lie as a member of this family.
Of course, due to her awkward status, she could only say goodbye with her eyes.
Near noon, all the soldiers boarded the ship.
"Lie'er.
Just finish your lunch before setting off.
It won't be too late."
Zhao Qin looked at the sky and said.
"Mother, thousands of people in the entire fleet are eating on the ship.
How dare I, the commander-in-chief, not get on the ship."
Zhao Lie said with a smile.
"Yes, the leader of an army should share the joys and sorrows with the soldiers.
Otherwise, who can work with you in war?
Don't listen to your mother's words."
Zhao Haiming said happily.
Zhao Qin came back and rolled her eyes.
Zhao Lie boarded the Li Ji, which was the last to dock.
Han Jian, Lan Mingshan and others were also on this ship, and there were some matters to discuss on the way.
The entire fleet assembled in the open sea and then headed east.
Four days later.
The Li Ji slowly approached the Dengzhou Pier Pier.
Due to its huge body, only the deepest section in the middle was suitable for it to dock.
Sun Yuanhua, You Shiwei, Kong Youde, Geng Zhongming, Zhang Tao, Tang Qian, Yang Jingtang, Li Youde, Wang Qian and other civil and military personnel were all present, forming a huge lineup.
This was also because the clipper ship had informed You Shiwei of its itinerary the day before.
Zhao Lie's troops will arrive today, load up the money, food and soldiers and set off immediately.
When the huge body of the Li Ji approached the dock, Sun Yuanhua took a few steps forward with his hands behind his hands.
He looked at the huge warship carefully.
He was not a civil servant like the other Ming Dynasty officials who only studied Eight-Part Composition.
He was influenced by Portuguese missionaries in his hometown and converted to Catholicism.
And he funded the construction of a church in his hometown for believers to worship.
He also read through some books brought by missionaries and had some knowledge of European architecture, customs and customs.
He also saw actual examples of Galenic ships.
But what he saw was the Galen Merchant Ship.
He had also seen this kind of ship, but only in books.
This was a real warship, and he could not mistake it.
He counted the gun windows on one side.
He knew that there were as many guns as there were gun windows.
After checking, he was surprised to find that there were twenty-five gun windows, so the total number of gun windows on both sides was fifty.
This means that this huge ship has fifty cannons.
He had heard from Portuguese missionaries that there were only a dozen giant ships with fifty cannons in the Far East.
And here he saw a ship.
He heard that Zhao Lie married a Portuguese woman.
He heard that this woman had a wealthy family and owned the Galen fleet.
He just thought there was a small fleet of three or two ships.
He didn't expect it to be such a large fleet.
Look at the two behemoths docked in the open sea.

And this battleship is even more invincible.
He knows the power of the giant cannon, otherwise he would not have spent one hundred thousand taels of silver to hire the Portuguese to cast the cannon in Dengzhou.
It's a pity that such powerful generals who are capable of fighting are at odds with the emperor and cannot be put to their full use.
It's a pity.
Zhao Lie stood on the deck and was shocked when he saw the luxurious lineup on the pier.
He expected that You Shilu might come, but he did not expect that Sun Yuanhua would also come to see him off.
As soon as the ship stopped, the sailors climbed onto the ramp, and Zhao Lie led Han Jian, Lan Mingshan, Wang Haizhou and other men to trot onto the dock in a hurry.
"How can my subordinates be so virtuous as to allow the governor and the general town to wait?
Please forgive me for my sins."
Zhao Lie, Zhao Da, Yu Dabao, Han Jian, Lan Mingshan, Wang Haizhou and others knelt down and worshiped on the ground.
"Sir Zhao, please wake up.
You and thousands of other soldiers will go out to Dongjiang for our country and fight bloody battles with Jiannu.
It is my duty to see you off."
Sun Yuanhua gave him a virtual support.
Zhao Lie and others stood up one after another.
You Shilu looked at Zhao Lie's subordinates.
He found that these people looked like Zhao Lie.
They were all wearing silver-white Portuguese armor.
They were stout and powerful.
In particular, there was a giant man who was half a head taller than Zhao Lie. , looking around angrily, it seems that he is not an easy person to get along with.
Well, he has the energy to fear nothing, no wonder he has strong fighting power.
"Zhao Lie, I would like to ask you how many of your troops are going to Pi Island."
You Shilu asked the truth.
"Lord Bing, Zhao Lie's two thousand servants and two thousand military households, a total of four thousand people, went to assist Pidao.
The troops under his command are fully equipped and not a single person has escaped."
Zhao Lie cupped his hands and said.
"Sir, if you need to check, Zhao Lie will have the troops disembark immediately."
"No need, you immediately send people to the official warehouse to load money and grain.
I'm afraid you don't know that the slave-building army has arrived in Xuanchuan.
This news has only been ten days.
Huang Long, the commander-in-chief of Pi Island, has sent several emergency documents."
You Shilu shook his head, there was really no time now, otherwise he really wanted to see how brave Zhao Lie's troops were.
Zhao Lie immediately arranged for Lan Mingshan to lead a hundred guardsmen there.
When the hundred-man guard disembarked, You Shilu looked at it with a good eye, because these hundred people had strong bodies, sharp eyes, and were protected by iron armor.
They had waist knives, short blunderbuss, iron shields, and long spears.
At first glance, he looks like a man who has been through battles for a long time, not just a showman with a shiny face.
Especially the fearlessness in his eyes, which can only be seen by soldiers who have experienced bloody battles.
"Zhao Lie, I have a lot of knowledge about the customs and customs of the Portuguese, and I have always been curious about their ships.
Can you let me board the ship for a look?"
Sun Yuanhua looked at Zhao Lie.
"Well, I also want to board the ship and have a look."
You Shilu, who came from a family of military generals in the northwest, also looked at this huge ship curiously.
Zhao Lie, of course, had no way of stopping the two top civil and military officials from Denglai who wanted to board the ship for a visit, but forget it for others, such as Kong Youde and Yang Jingtang who had been watching with cold eyes.
"Sir, the boat is small and messy.
The two adults and the guards can get on it, but I'm afraid there won't be much room for the others."

Zhao Lie looked at the people behind him and said.
"Haha, Zhao Lie, you are still too young."
Sun Yuanhua shook his head.
After all, he was still a young man who didn't know how to be the same as the world.
This was probably the reason why he could not be reused for his great achievements.
You Shilu was speechless at all.
He didn't even bother to say a word to these bastards.
Zhao Lie's words were loud and Kong Youde and others also heard it.
They just sneered.
Yang Jingtang, Kong Youde and others really had no interest in sea ships, and they did not want to see Zhao Lie's bad face.
Wang Qian, Li Youde and others also knew that this was not directed at them at all.
Accompanied by Zhao Lie, Sun Yuanhua and You Shilu boarded the Li Ji.
Everything on the deck surprised them, including the sprit, mainmast, mainsail, topsail, observation deck, and even the rope ladder.
When they arrived at the gun deck, they couldn't help but be amazed when they saw more than a hundred gunners on standby on the entire deck and fifty huge cannons on the deck.
"What kind of cannon is this?"
Sun Yuanhua was really obsessed with muskets and artillery.
When he saw the Tiago cannon, he knew he had discovered a new artillery.
"This is a shotgun.
It can hold a large bag of shotgun.
It is extremely lethal to sailors on enemy ships."
Zhao Lie lied.
Tiago Pao's secret Zhao Lie must be kept no matter what.
"It's a pity that these are wrought iron."
Sun Yuanhua was indeed led astray.
In land battles, he mainly used solid bullets.
After all, the range of the shotgun was too short.
After one shot, the enemy was in front of him before he could reload, so it was of no use. .
The barrel of this gun is extremely short, and it can be seen that its range is extremely short.
Lao Sun was greedy when he saw the thirty-six-pound long-barreled cannon.
Well, the largest cannon in Dengzhou was only a twelve-pound cannon.
There were six of these huge cannons on this ship. s: Thanks to Xiuyin588 for the reward, and thanks to friends who rewarded, subscribed and recommended.
