Drums and trumpets sounded on the pier, and a large group of Polu soldiers lined up neatly and waited.
Two miles away from the pier, the police cordon of the Polu Army soldiers was heard, and many people were looking towards the pier.
Zhou Yuan was also hiding among them.
His appearance was no different from the other people.
He seemed to be very excited and curious, full of expectations for the victory of the Polu army.
Today is the day when the Polu army returned victoriously from aiding Korea to fight against the slaves.
A few days ago, news came that the Polu army had saved Hanyang and defeated Jiannu.
Shidao had already been celebrating for a day.
On that day, Shidao was full of laughter and laughter.
Firecrackers went off.
The Shidao government office also distributed wedding money to the people, which amounted to less than ten cents in a paper bag.
But have you ever seen the Ming Dynasty government office distributing wedding money to the people?
This was enough to make the people feel happy.
Zhou Yuan looked towards the bay.
The entire bay was filled with the Western Yi warships of the Polu army.
The tall ships and their towering mainmasts covered the sea.
The fleet is too huge.
Where did Zhao Lie come from such strength?
As for what Zhao Lie claimed to the outside world was the strength of his wife's mother's family, now Zhou Yuan doesn't believe it.
No matter how much the couple supports each other, Zhao Lie is also an outsider, okay?
So many ships support you in Zhao Lie's battle.
Can the Portuguese do this?
Zhou Yuan watched as one ship after another approached the dock, and a large number of Polu troops poured out of the ship.
They were far away, but they could still see their joy.
Observing from here, Zhou Yuan could see that the losses of the Polu army must be slight, otherwise the soldiers would not be so happy, which is absolutely impossible.
Zhou Yuan is a veteran in the army.
He knew this at a glance, but this confused him.
He knew the combat power of the Qing army's cavalry.
The Polu army had good combat power, but he wanted to repel the Qing army's attack with only a small loss.
It's a fantasy, it's a mystery.
After thousands of Polu soldiers and 6,000 troops disembarked and returned to the Polu camp, Zhao Lie's Li Ji slowly docked at the dock.
Zhao Haiming, Zhao Qinshi, Alexandra, Zhao Meng and others had been waiting for a long time.
When they saw the Li Ji docking, their spirits were lifted.
Zhao Lie was about to disembark.
Zhao Lie disembarked from the warship together with Hong Yihan, the new Korean envoy Li Cao, Banshu.
Hong Yihan was also a die-hard pro-Ming faction in North Korea.
Now he was appointed as the new envoy in accordance with Zhao Lie's request to vigorously promote pro-Ming faction officials.
Li Cao Yanshu, and the original Li Cao Yanshu Jin Sangxian was promoted to Zuo Yizheng.
Hong Yihan's first task after taking office was to go to the Ming Dynasty as an envoy to express his gratitude to the Ming Dynasty for sending troops to assist.
Even if he knew that Zhao Lie had sent troops first and then reported it, he still had to express this, otherwise it would be North Korea's lack of etiquette.
At the same time, this was also to repair the relationship with Ming Dynasty.
After all, since Ding Mao's chaos, although the two countries continued to communicate, they were all conducted in private.
After all, North Korea had already signed a peace agreement with Jiannu, and Jiannu could not be given a reason to get angry.
Not to mention the cordiality of the family meeting, Zhao Lie introduced Zhao Haiming and Hong Yihan.
When Hong Yihan learned that this was Zhao Lie, the father of Commander-in-Chief Zhao, a former Denglai Navy veteran, he hurriedly came forward to pay homage.

Hong Yihan's gratitude to Zhao Lie was needless to mention.
If Zhao Lie hadn't led the army To aid North Korea, he estimated that North Korea had only one way to surrender.
He knows very well what kind of person the king is.
The bloody spirit of his youth has faded and he has been tortured by the chaos at home and abroad.
Now Li Zhu has become a suspicious and mediocre king.
Hong Yihan estimated that after North Korea's surrender, there would no longer be a place for the pro-Ming faction in the court.
The pro-Ming faction, including him, would have to withdraw from the people and lose their ability to influence national affairs.
Therefore, Zhao Lie's aid to North Korea reversed the war situation, and at the same time, it also allowed North Korea to avoid the ferocious barbarians who bent their knees and drank blood, so that North Korea, which regarded itself as an orthodox little China, would not be disgraced and ashamed.
But he, Hong Yihan, didn’t know at all that in the original history, after North Korea was forced to surrender, he and two other pro-Ming faction officials were killed by Jiannu Suona.
Even Kim Sang-heon, a famous pro-Ming faction minister in North Korea, also The pro-Ming faction in North Korea was almost completely wiped out when they were asked by the Jiannu to put them under house arrest in Shengjing.
Zhao Lie was actually life-saving to him and other pro-Ming ministers.
Of course, Zhao Lie didn't know it either.
He knew nothing about this history.
There is no need to mention the pride in Zhao Haiming's heart.
Each and every thing Zhao Lie did made Old Zhao feel a little elated.
Aiding the DPRK to quell the Japanese and repeatedly defeating the slaves, this was simply the trend of becoming the most powerful general since the Ming Dynasty.
Even Old Zhao had vaguely sensed Zhao Lie's thoughts, and a throne faintly moved towards the Zhao family.
While Zhao Haiming was greeting Hong Yihan, Zhao Lie paid homage to Zhao Qin and hugged Alexandra.
Li Lin stayed at home to take care of his three children.
There were many people at the pier today and the waiting time was long.
Zhao Qin did not let Li Lin bring little Zhao Cunli to the pier, so the task of taking care of Zhao Cunren, Zhao Cunzhi and Zhao Yan was It fell on Li Lin and Wang.
When the Zhao family's horse team passed the official road of the pier, the crowds on both sides of the official road let out huge cheers.
"Denglai Military God, Denglai Military God."
Suddenly someone shouted such a chant.
At first, a few people shouted sparsely, and then as other people started shouting along with the chant, the shouts became more and more loud.
The louder and louder they become.
Of course, the person who took the lead in shouting was specially arranged, and the content of the shout was not controversial.
Zhou Yuan stood in the crowd and listened to the deafening shouts of the Denglai War God.
Among perhaps the most fanatical people in the Ming Dynasty, his blood became hot as he watched the Zhao family's cavalry passing by.
This is the fanatical group atmosphere, this is the special Zhao family base camp in Shidao, this is seeing and hearing Zhao Lie's achievements with his own eyes, this is his personal experience in the battle with the Jiannu cavalry, and he knows it deeply.
Zhao Lie's achievements were not easy to come by.
The Zhao family's cavalry had passed by, but Zhou Yuan still looked at the place opposite where the Zhao family's cavalry had just passed by, and he couldn't help but shed tears.
"Dad, look at this uncle, he's crying.
Look."
A little girl's immature shout called Zhou Yuan back from his daze.
He looked up and saw a little girl on the arm of a man in his twenties dressed as a store clerk pointing at him.
Zhou Yuan's old face turned red, while the young man smiled apologetically, and hurriedly hugged the child and walked away.
He guessed that Zhou Yuan was just like some of the excited people just now.
This is the habit of Ming people.
Seeing this situation, he was afraid that the other party would think He was laughing and hurried away with the child.
Zhou Yuan wiped away his tears.
He was not as energetic as when he came, but staggered back.
When there was no one around, he roared, Zhao Lie, you bastard, why the hell did you come so late.
This was what he said in his heart.
He was not willing to surrender and become a slave, but he stayed in the rear of Liaodong.

Unless he didn't want the lives of his family members, he had no choice but to surrender.
He hated it.
Of course, Zhao Lie didn't hear the inner thoughts of a slave, Xizuo.
He was now reunited with his family, and he was letting his body and mind relax a bit.
In the past two years, he has been very busy traveling here and there, and he cherishes the time he spends with his family doubly.
But the happy time was destined to be short-lived.
Ten days later, the Li Ji boarded by Zhao Lie and Hong Yihan headed north towards Denglai Water City under the escort of two Tang-class battleships and six patrol ships.
Although there was no order to send troops, at least they had to report to the governor of Denglai and the Denglai garrison when they came back.
This was to give the court a step down, and also to the Ming Dynasty officialdom, so that both sides could have a step down.
Otherwise, the crime of raising troops without an imperial edict is not a small one.
Although Zhao Lie could not care less, Zhao Lie believed that if he broke up with the imperial court at this time, the peasant army of Jiannu and Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong would be most happy, but it would be extremely disadvantageous to the Polu army.
When the fleet was slowly heading north, Zhang Guoyuan was sitting opposite Lu Ping in the back hall of Denglai Town Guards House.
"You have also seen the emperor's will.
The emperor's intention is very clear, that is to use all means to get rid of Zhao Lie, do you know?"
Zhang Guoyuan whispered, his narrow eyes staring at Lu Ping opposite.
Lu Ping's heart was still in turmoil at this time.
He had not fully digested the news.
It shouldn't be.
Yes, it was a big sin for Zhao Lie to send troops to North Korea without an order, but the facts proved that Zhao Lie was right to do so.
Otherwise, Hanyang, the capital of North Korea, would be besieged.
North Korea must surrender to the slaves.
Not only will the Ming Dynasty lose face, but the eastern barrier will be gone.
North Korea will even send troops to accompany the slaves to conquer the Ming Dynasty.
However, as soon as the Denglai army led by Zhao Lie arrived in Hanyang, North Korea, he immediately defeated the Jiannu army and defended the capital of North Korea, preventing the Ming Dynasty from losing this vassal state, and made great contributions to the Ming Dynasty.
Although Zhao Lie had different ambitions, he was fighting fiercely with Jiannu in Dongjiang and North Korea at this time.
To kill Zhao Lie at this time was not to express the anger of relatives and enemies.
This was a stupid move.
But can you tell me, Long Live Lord, that as long as the emperor issues an imperial edict, there is basically no possibility of this matter turning around, that is, Zhao Lie must die.
"Sir Zhang, in the past two years, Zhao Lie and Jiannu have fought successively in Lushun, Dongjiang, and Korea.
It can be said that they have killed one thousand enemies and suffered eight hundred losses.
At this time..."
When Lu Ping said this, he looked at Zhang Guoyuan.
The meaning behind his words was obvious.
The timing was not right.
"Well," Zhang Guoyuan looked at Lu Ping with sharp eyes, "Lu Ping, don't forget your official status, don't forget that you are a noble empress of the Ming Dynasty, and don't forget that it was our family that dropped you here."
Lu Ping opened his mouth but did not make a sound.
He bowed and saluted, "I respectfully obey the emperor's orders."
He heard his voice crack and hoarse.
After returning to his residence, Lu Ping sent everyone away.
He sat in the dim candlelight and thought for a long time.
If Zhao Lie is killed, the Polu army may collapse, Dongjiang and Lushun will also collapse, and even Zhao Lie's military leaders will engage in civil war, and Denglai will once again usher in turmoil.
If anyone dares to violate Long Live Lord's will without killing him, not only will his own life be in danger, but the survival of the family will also be in question.
Lu Ping fell asleep in a daze
