Chapter 171
Liujiagang!
Zhu Hao walked from here when he first went to sea, and Zhu Hao has not gone to the sea since returning from the Yin Kingdom. Today Zhu Hao came to Liujiagang again, but unlike the previous times, this time Zhu Hao went to sea in the name of the imperial court and carried a large number of troops.
At this moment, there are already many warships densely arranged on the sea, and none other than the Great Treasure Ship of Daming is conspicuous. From the beginning, there were only a few dozen big treasure ships, and after the continuous construction in the past few days, the scale of the Daming Great Treasure Ship has reached hundreds, and the scale of a thousand ships is not far away.
Therefore, when these big treasure ships are appearing in the sea, they give people a feeling of being very imposing and making people very spiritual.
"Dad, is this the Hongwu, my Daming's first big treasure ship, named after the year name of the imperial grandfather?"
Zhu Leyao's little girl's gaze fell on the Hongwu at this moment, and a pair of eyes looked directly at a giant ship in the sea. She had heard about the great treasure ship of Daming for a long time, after all, it was designed and built by her father himself, and he also used it to destroy the Yin Kingdom, and he had heard of those deeds.
However, it was the first time she had seen this Daming treasure ship, so he was still very excited when he saw this ship at the moment.
"Yes, this is my Daming's big treasure ship, and the first one headed by my Daming is named after the year name of your imperial grandfather, which is the Hongwu."
Zhu Hao nodded with a smile when he heard this, and replied.
This time he went to sea to capture Chen Zuyi, and Zhu "630" Hazel still brought his wife and children. It was not that Zhu Hao specifically wanted to bring them, but they strongly requested it. At the beginning, it was time for Xu Miaoyun to go with him, saying that he was helping Zhu Hao manage the logistics.
Zhu Hao did not refuse, after all, Xu Miaoyun did not go out with him once or twice, except for the last time he went to the southern Yunnan land to rescue Lan Yu, he didn't take her with him, and he almost brought her every time. Therefore, Xu Miaoyun wanted to follow, and Zhu Hao agreed.
Originally, Zhu Leyao was going to send his grandfather Xu Da to where to let Xu Da help take care of it. But who knew that this girl knew that Zhu Hao and Xu Miaoyun were going to sea, so she had to quarrel and want to go together.
Zhu Hao is a daughter slave, there is no way to get rid of this girl, she can only bring a piece.
In the end, Zhu Xunshuo was left, and when Zhu Xunshuo saw off Zhu Hao and them, his little expression was obviously a pitiful abandoned look, and it was obvious that he felt that he must be an accident.
But even if Zhu Hao was willing to take him, Zhu Yuanzhang would not agree. Now Zhu Xunshuo not only has to follow Song Lian and others to learn various Confucian classics and learning, but also needs to follow Zhu Biao and Zhu Yuanzhang to deal with imperial affairs, after all, he is now the crown prince, so the pressure is naturally greater.
"Great, I'm going to sit on this Hongwu, I haven't sat on this Hongwu yet."
When Zhu Leyao heard this, his gaze fell on the Hongwu, and then said excitedly.
"Eh, you're wrong about that, you've actually been on this boat."
Hearing Zhu Leyao's words, Zhu Hao suddenly smiled and said.
"Ah, Father, when have I ever sat down?"
Zhu Leyao stared at a pair of beautiful eyes, then looked at Zhu Hao and asked, why didn't she remember that she had been on this boat.
"Silly child, when in the mother's belly."
Xu Miaoyun smiled, rubbed Zhu Leyao's head and said to her.
Hearing this, Zhu Leyao was stunned.
"Cluck, that's count..."
She giggled, obviously feeling that Zhu Hao's words were too unreliable.
"Little county lord, go, Uncle Lan will take you up."
Lan Yu looked at Zhu Leyao and then said. This time, he naturally went with Zhu Hao. Blue Jade is now Zhu Hazel's number one follower, and he is loyal to Zhu Hauna. Now it is Lanyu who is already a county duke, but there is a county duke above the county duke.
So of course, it is impossible for Lan Yu to stop his pace, he has to make more military merits, thinking about his relationship with Zhu Hao's family, and when Zhu Xunshuo comes to the throne in the future, he will be able to seal a king with a different surname after his death like his brother-in-law, in this way, Lan Yu is enough.
Therefore, holding Zhu Hao's thigh is Lan Yu's only thought and thought. He was very glad that he was originally chosen by Zhu Hao, so many years later, in fact, Lan Yu has also understood, when Zhu Hao was still young, he found his own trouble in order to temper himself, and now that so many years have passed, he naturally only has gratitude to Zhu Hao.
At the same time, following Zhu Hao to the sea are Liao Yongzhong and Liao Quan father and son, these two are now also Zhu Hao's irons. Liao Quan was named a marquis after returning from a trip to southern Yunnan last time, and a Shuanghou could spoil Liao Yongzhong to the United States. Now in Yingtianfu, how many old brothers are envious when they see him.
However, Liao Yongzhong naturally could not be satisfied with this, in his opinion, a double marquis is nothing, his goal is a double gong. Mix a duke yourself, and your son mix another duke, that is only bullish.
Therefore, when Zhu Hao wanted to go to sea, Liao Yongzhong took the initiative to come to the door and begged his grandfather to tell his grandmother to let Zhu Hao bring their father and son.
For this, Zhu Hao did not refuse, after all, Liao Yongzhong's ability to fight water is one of the best in the entire Daming, so he is naturally willing to follow Zhu Hao.
This time, following Zhu Hao to the sea was his brother-in-law Xu Zuhui. Xu Da is the first martial general of Daming, so of course, the children of the Xu family also have to follow the path of martial generals. Now Xu Zuhui is an adult, so Xu Da asked him to follow Zhu Hao to experience it.
I think that it was Zhu Hao who followed Xu Da to experience at the beginning, but now it is Zhu Hao who took the children of the Xu family out to practice, which has to be said to be a reincarnation.
This time, there were actually quite a few children of the noble family, not only Xu Zuhui. After a few times, those nobles of Ying Tianfu obviously saw the benefits of Zhu Hao. Following Zhu Hao, that is to be able to earn military merits, so I heard that Zhu Hao is going to sea to ping Chen Zuyi this time, and these nobles are trying to entrust their nephews and the like into Zhu Hao's army.
Most of these nobles were friendly with Zhu Hao, after all, they all sponsored Zhu Hao when they fought against the Yin Kingdom. Although it was not given for nothing, it was also considered a friendship, and they licked their faces one by one.
For this situation, Zhu Hao is very generous, and he doesn't want any gifts from the other party, and he won't refuse. Because in Zhu Hao's opinion, this is not a bad thing, after all, these people must become the mainstay of Daming in the future.
Therefore, instead of these people being safe and useless and waiting for the shade to obtain official positions, appearing to be idle and inactive, and not contributing to the imperial court, it is better to go into his own hands, he will give a good experience and experience, and in the future, it can be regarded as a reserve of some talents for his son.
Therefore, Zhu Hazel took these people in. There is only one demand, that is, let each family sign a life and death certificate, that is, these people themselves will die and will not give any preferential treatment, and if they are killed or injured, they can not care about their own business. (Read violent novels, just go to Feilu Fiction Network!) ）
And all the nobles of the family agreed without much hesitation, and most of them were people who followed Zhu Yuanzhang to inquire. They have crossed the sea in the sea of sword mountains and fire, of course, they also want their nephews to exercise well, and they also understand that there is no reason for the undead to go out to fight, and naturally they will not refuse.
"Go!"
After everything was prepared, Zhu Hao did not hesitate much, and directly waved his big hand to indicate departure.
For a time, the counting ships on the sea headed towards Qiongzhou.
Zhu Hao's first stop is Qiongzhou, Qiongzhou, the end of the world, and the southernmost part of the Daming territory.
Daming does not actually have a lot of strength for the development of Qiongzhou, the total population of Qiongzhou is only two or three hundred thousand people, which is the poorest and most backward state capital in Daming, this time Chen Zuyi directly killed fifty or sixty thousand people when he arrived in Qiongzhou, which is almost one-fifth of the population of Qiongzhou to Qiongzhou can be said to be a huge blow.
At the same time, Qiongzhou is also an important place for exiled prisoners, and you can imagine what kind of place this Qiongzhou is.
Of course, Zhu Hao went to Qiongzhou to appease the people there, and then inquire about Chen Zuyi's whereabouts. After all, Qiongzhou is now leaderless, even the prefect has been killed, and now it is quite chaotic. Therefore, Zhu Hao must also go to Qiongzhou to pacify the people of Qiongzhou first....
More than half a month later, in the waters of Qiongzhou, a huge fleet appeared on the sea. When many fishermen in the sea saw this fleet, they were first startled, and thought that the pirates had made a comeback, but when they looked closely, they became excited, and the flags of the Ming army were planted on the boats, and it was obvious that these people in front of them were the army of the Ming Dynasty. This made these people excited and excited.
You must know that Qiongzhou has suffered such serious injuries this time, which can be said to have a far-reaching impact on the people. The prefects were all killed, which shows how terrible this is.
So they are now like frightened birds, the so-called once bitten by snakes for ten years afraid of the well rope, their current mentality is like this, when they see some strange ships, they think that pirates are coming, and they already have psychological shadows.
They desperately needed a dose of strength to regain their confidence, so the moment they saw Daming's army appear, everyone lit up hope.
"It was the navy of Daming who came, the army of the imperial court came, and the army of the imperial court came to decide for us."
"Woo-woo, the imperial court did not abandon us, the imperial court did not abandon us, woo-woo is too good, great."
"The imperial court did not give us up, they came to help us."
..................
One by one, the fishermen wept with joy, and then knelt on the boat and kowtowed in the direction of the Daming fleet.
"Father, why are they kowtowing to us?"
Zhu Leyao stood at the bow of the boat, watching the people on the fishing boats in the distance kowtowing here, and couldn't help but wonder.
"They are not kowtowing to us, they are kowtowing to the military flag of Daming, they know that the army of the imperial court is coming, and their safety is guaranteed, so they kowtow."
Zhu Hao hugged Zhu Leyao and said, a trace of sadness flashed in his eyes. This was what they should have done, but it seemed to be something to help them, which was very guilty for Zhu Hao. After all, to say that this matter had a lot to do with himself, if it weren't for the fact that he killed Xiang Xiaotian, Chen Zuyi would not have taken revenge. Therefore, in terms of causation, you still need to pay the main responsibility.
"Chen Zuyi, don't let me catch you, otherwise..."
Zhu Hao's eyes were full of coldness, his eyes were gloomy, and his expression was even more cold, it was obvious that Chen Zuyi Zhu Hao was full of anger, he wanted to make this island leader pay a terrible price.
"Why hasn't Blue Jade come back yet?"
After another voyage, according to the charts, they were all about to arrive at Qiongzhou Port at 2.7. Before Lan Yu first drove the boat to Qiongzhou Port to report the news, after all, Zhu Hao's large fleet appeared, if he rashly appeared in Qiongzhou Port, it would inevitably cause panic and chaos, so Zhu Hao asked Lan Yu to contact Qiongzhou Port first, but the time has passed so long, this Blue Jade has not returned, which makes Zhu Hao wonder, I don't know what happened, why it happened.
Just when Zhu Hao was puzzled, Blue Jade's ship appeared.
Soon, Lan Yu's ship approached Zhu Hao's Hongwu, and then Lan Yu and the others came out of the ship, and then boarded Zhu Hao's Hongwu.
"Xiaguan Danzhou Zhizhou, Zhang Wenwen to meet His Royal Highness King Wei, to meet Princess Wei, to meet the Lord of Yongle County..."
As soon as he boarded the boat, Zhu Hao's eyes noticed several people who came with Lan Yu, all of them wearing the official uniforms of Ming Dynasty officials, took a few steps and made a step, quickly came to Zhu Hao, and then knelt down in unison and saluted Zhu Hao.
When Zhu Hao heard this, his eyes looked at the other party.
Qiongzhou Prefecture has a total of three prefectures, Danzhou, Yazhou and Wanzhou. Danzhou is the administrative center and the largest state capital in Qiongzhou. Now the prefect of Qiongzhou Mansion has been killed by Chen Zuyi, and in this way, the biggest prefect of Qiongzhou Mansion in Danzhou today is undoubtedly Danzhou Zhizhou in front of him.
"Get up!"
Zhu Hao looked at these people and signaled them to get up, but he didn't expect that Lan Yu actually found this Zhizhou, which couldn't help but surprise Zhu Hao.
"Why are you guys here, we have all entered the port, waiting in the port, why come over in person."
