The accompanying official registered the number, and later patted the registration form on his chest with a smile, and said with a smile: "It has exceeded 20,000."

"A rare victory." He Baihu said with a smile: "During the Northern Expedition, it is not bad to have our news to boost morale in the north. I think our kings will not be kings in the future, but should be the kings."

"It's best." A guard said, "Otherwise, the two governments and the officials would be too stingy."

A low laughter came from all around. Xu Zixian killed Dasan in the capital. Because of his similar bloodlines, he was rumored to be the candidate of the crown prince. As a result, he was deeply jealous of the emperor. After that, he was forcibly suppressed by the emperor for a long time. Otherwise, with Xu Zixian's successive great achievements, especially the great trouble of the Qishan thief, the confidant of Fujian Road, even though he was given a real official household, everyone knew that if he changed to an ordinary royal family, the marquis of the kingdom, he would directly be awarded to the Duke.

"Nan'an Public?"

"It shouldn't be." An expert said: "The marquis of this dynasty usually have two characters. When the Duke was first given, he was usually given the Duke of a small country. When his seniority grew and his prestige grew, he changed to the Duke of a big country. For example, King Zhao first gave him the Duke of a Duke of Ju, later he was awarded Duke of a Duke of Chu, and finally named King Zheng, and then changed to King Zhao."

"How many times do the imperial envoys have to run away?"

"There is no need for red tape. I don't think the emperor wants to pay more attention to this matter. In addition, our lords have made enough contributions, so they probably directly granted it to the Duke of the Great Power."

"There are both Qi, Chu, Wei and Han now. I don't know which major country's official account will be."

"Anyway, it's US."

Li Guozhu walked by the beach with a long siege, paying attention to the shadows under his feet from time to time to prevent pirates from raiding. The search work is not completely risk-free. In recent days, more than 20 people of Minzhuang and the government troops have been raided by pirates. Fortunately, only a few people were slightly injured.

The pirates avoided the darkness and did not provide food and water. In addition, the physical energy consumed after the war was not replenished, so they were scared to death. Therefore, the seemingly fierce movements of the pounce were actually extremely weak, and they were mostly trying to die quickly. Don’t care too much, just be careful.

Li Guozhu shook his head and suddenly smiled.

He didn't care about the court, the emperor, the two palaces, and any pacification envoys, and he didn't care.

What he cared about was that Nan'an Hou was cured and continued to be on the Dongfan Island.

Whether it is a lord, a lord, or a lord, or other names, as long as the lord is on the island, you don’t need to be afraid of anything, just follow the guidance to do things.

On the island, he already had a place to live. The two gatehouses were filled with farm tools, and the smell of fresh soil remained. There were three wing rooms, three main rooms, rooms with grain and grain, and stoves. Li Guozhu and his wife were living with two children. They had a comfortable living. They had a place to shelter from the wind and rain. The furniture was freshly made. In less than half a year, there was also the fragrance of fresh wood.

Looking back on the years of being a refugee, the day is in danger. When it rains in winter, the whole family is wet. Li Guozhu hugged his wife and children and cried loudly in the rain.

Li Guozhu didn't want to experience such a life again, so when the pirates attacked, he held a polished old wand and prepared for the battle in front of the long base with his own bow and arrow.

He was determined not to take a step back. If he died, the marquis's mansion would be over, and his wife and children would probably not be able to survive. This dirty world would be better than dying.

If Li Guozhu dies and the Marquis's Mansion is still there, this will be even better. The family will receive pensions and someone will take care of his wife and children until his son grows up and establishes a family. Li Guozhu has nothing to worry about.

Most Minzhuang who were preparing for war at Changzuo had the same idea, so when the pirates raided, the Minzhuang array did not fluctuate at all, and they easily blocked the pirates who were trying to escape through Changzuo and went to the inner realm.

At that time, Minzhuang suffered some casualties and was not serious. Some injured were successively arrested in the past two days, and no one died in battle.

Everyone was very happy, and even Li Guozhu never had such a happy time in his life.

I was very happy when I got married, but when I thought about starting a family to support my wife and children from now on, I always felt a little heavy when I was happy.

Of course he was happy when he gave birth to a son, but the burden of life was gradually overwhelming. Li Guozhu couldn't breathe.

Then there was endless suffering, the escape when the pirates attacked, displaced, went to the Nan'an Marquis' Mansion to take on work and settle down the Dongfan, and from then on, he lived a wealthy life that he never dared to think about.

At this time, Li Guozhu was of course extremely happy, but this kind of happiness was like a dream, and there was always a little unreal feeling.

Because everything comes too fast and is all gifted by others.

After defeating the pirates, Li Guozhu went to Jingguan to see it. Twenty thousand heads were piled up by the sea. This was a landscape that ordinary people could unimaginate. That kind of horror might make a big man scare his pants.

But Li Guozhu was not afraid at all. Not only was he not afraid, but he watched Jingguan for a long time and finally laughed happily.

The government troops stationed beside him thought the man was frightened and wanted to come and support him. Li Guozhu waved his hand and left, but he couldn't help laughing.

While laughing, Li Guozhu also stepped on the ground hard and felt the solidity of the earth.

At this moment, he realized something, and then a sense of pleasure seemed to hit his heart from his waist. His whole body trembled, trembled, and then tears burst out from his eyes.

At that moment, Li Guozhu understood that all this was fought for by himself and worked hard. He followed the craftsmen to burn bricks and build a house, and he opened the foundation of the settlement and the donkey.

Horses and mules pull stones together to flatten the land.

He kept cutting shrubs with his knife, cutting off all the weeds and vines, and then set fire to the settlements to the outer farmland. Then he started burning wastelands outside when it was light dawn every morning, cultivated land, and built canals. He went home until it was dark every day.

Very hard and worth it.

Even so, there is still a sense of illusion that Li Guozhu can never feel at ease. When he defeated the big pirates and saw the mountain-like head, Li Guozhu was truly happy. There seemed to be a big stone in his heart. He knew that everything was not false, everything was so real.

If there are still people who don’t believe in everything that happened in the Dongfan and don’t trust everything around them, then it’s simple, just ask him to go to Jingguan to take a look.

This is the real reality, bloody truth. If someone dares to come and take away everything that everyone has now, Li Guozhu will ask him to go and see Jingguan to see if he can bear such a price.

And Li Guozhu dared and did not hesitate.

After midnight, people get a quarter of an hour to rest. Many people sit on the gentle slope by the sea to rest. The night is very beautiful, the moonlight is bright and the stars are bright. The sea breeze blows at night, making people feel quite cool and comfortable.

Many people's robes were wet with sweat, and the sea breeze blew over, which reduced the heat on their bodies a lot.

Many people began to talk about collecting beans and cotton. The matter in front of them was probably going to be busy for a day or two. Next, it was probably the cavalry battalion, the guards, and some of the government troops continued to be responsible for the search for the remaining pirates.

Most of the people who were strong and civilians, except for a few who were transferred to the central part to build ports and docks and roads, most of them had to start harvesting in the farmland.

Collect beans first. After collecting beans, they may take a break for three or five days. At the same time, expose the beans to the sun and then start harvesting cotton.

There were many people talking about it, and some wanted to have more rice, because of the climate of Dongfan, rice can be ripe at least twice a year, and if it goes well, it may not be ripe three a year.

The person who settled the accounts was about to finish the saliva.

Of course, the requirements and standards for ripening three times a year are too high. Fujian Road has long introduced rice seeds from Chameng Kingdom. This kind of rice is called Chameng rice. Legend has it that some people ripening three times a year, but in fact they are planted for two seasons a year and harvested twice.

Even if it only has two seasons, it is still an unimaginable harvest.

The goal of Nan'an Marquis Mansion is to open up more wastelands in the short term, even Li Guozhu knows that the longer-term goal is of course to occupy more territory, large islands in the south, one of the largest plains in the world, and a wider land in the north.

The land is so big. When you occupy a large enough territory to guide the diversion of the people and keep the per capita land at a level of at least a few dozen acres, as the industry becomes more developed and absorbs more people, it will ultimately be a win-win situation.

Of course, this may take a long time. At least in the eyes of Li Guozhu and others, what they are now considering is to plant beans or rice, or expanding cotton fields to obtain higher returns.

For ordinary people, this is a headache and happy hope.

“There is a fire.”

Li Guozhu kept squinting his eyes and sitting cross-legged on the ground. At this moment, he suddenly stood up. He first glanced at the sea with suspicious eyes, and then shouted with all his strength: "There is movement at the sea, there is fire, and the fire boat is colliding with the enemy ship!"

"Yes, I saw it too!"

"Is it the navy?"

"Did the court send a navy?"

"Impossible, absolutely impossible." He Baihu looked at the sea, then turned to everyone and said, "The last navy of the imperial court is in our hands. In the port of Penghu, the king told them not to fight. We have also heard about Fuzhou. Those big men did not consider coming to help our Dongfan. The defense plan they arranged did not include the Dongfan at all. Before the pirates came, martial law was strictly imposed everywhere in Quanzhou. The imperial guards were deployed to various military prefectures. No master thought of sending ships to our Dongfan. Even if they sent an imperial guard to a military commander of an army, hundreds of lucky boats and fishing boats would come out? But no one cared about us. This is not my deceiving everyone. The fact is that, after fighting this war, everyone knew it when someone returned to Fuzhou."

Everyone knew that He Baihu was talking about the facts. There was no need to spread rumors about this matter. Fuzhou did not have the kind of leading person who was brave and prestige enough to block the situation.

In such a complicated situation in Fuzhou, which big shot would risk sending ordinary merchant ships and fishing boats to the Dongfan to help with the war with an army that was not enough?

"Whose ship would it be?"

"There is no other possibility." He Baihu said decisively: "This is our own navy warship, they are here to kill!"

...

The fire on the sea was dotted first, like the reflection of the starlight melted into the sea, and then the fire was made, and then the sound of killing also started.

Xu Zixian, Qin Dongyang, Ge brothers and other generals were awakened. Everyone met above the port. Under the moonlight, someone had originally illuminated it with a torch, but was extinguished by Xu Zixian, so that it was easier to observe the situation on the sea.

It was like someone opened a magic box and magic appeared.

The entire sea surface was originally calm, with only the reflection of the stars and the moonlight. After the movement and the shouts of killing, the entire sea surface seemed to have a light suddenly turned on. No, it was brighter and brighter than the lights.

Countless small boats were ignited instantly. Perhaps in the dark, these small boats had already dived to the side of the pirate ship. Then the first ship was discovered. The pirates let out a scream and shouted at the killing, but the distance was too close.

The boat caught fire and hit the side of the hull of a large ship. It was soaked in tung oil and filled with firewood, and even some gunpowder was sprinkled with gunpowder, and it was no worse than explosives. When the fire was a little fire, the whole fire became a huge, burning, terrifying torch.

Xu Zixian and others saw that after several small boats caught fire like an explosion, the people on the boat at close range caught fire instantly before they could dodge, and their whole body burned like a torch. They quickly struggled to jump into the sea, but after being burned by the fire, it was difficult for people to escape from the sea, and they probably drowned directly in the sea.

This is a very heroic, extremely spectacular and extremely tragic scene.

The people on the arson ship were burned not only in one or two, but in dozens or hundreds of cases. When they saw firemen jumping down from the ship, almost all the people on the shore were stunned and even burst into tears.

Such an attack is quite effective. Many firemen also fixed the iron chain of the claws on the pirate ship before jumping into the sea. In this way, the fire ships will be absorbed. After the fire is approached by a large wooden ship, even if there is sea water on the side of the ship, it is useless. The sea ships are made of completely dry wood. Undried wood ships cannot last long. When the Zheng family navy was at the end of the journey, it was mainly after the Qing Dynasty's sea ban colluded with the Dutch. The Zheng navy used semi-dry wood to build ships. The ships were of inferior quality and were easily damaged or sunk.

Of course, pirate ships are not the kind of inferior ships, they are very dry, and they also need to be painted regularly to ensure dryness. After the fire-driven ship approaches, these large ships also burn in less than a few minutes.

More human-shaped torches appeared. After the big ship was burned, many pirates were caught off guard and were engulfed by the fire.

Many people let out horrific screams, then struggled to jump off the boat, and then fell into the sea with a bang.

A pirate took advantage of the fire to attack the boat with the trench on the boat. The trench made a banging sound. Most of the stones fell into the sea water, stirring up water columns, and a small number of stones hit the boat that had already caught fire. With a fluffy, the entire boat and the fire-induced objects were blown up, and fireworks were burning everywhere, which seemed to have ignited the entire sea surface.

Xu Zixian held his breath and silenced his hands holding the barrier knife around his waist tightly until his joints turned white.

At this moment, a simple analysis can be seen that the attacker in front of him must be the Nan'an Navy from Penghu, and there is no second possibility.

Fuzhou and Zhejiang, these are the two closest routes, with not many garrisons. Jiangling has many garrisons, but they are too far apart and several garrisons. Even if they want to send troops, the court will have to allow them.

Fujian Road can send troops directly to provide assistance, but with the information Xu Zixian obtained and the understanding of Lin Douyao and King Zhao, if the Dongfan was conquered, Lin Douyao would be a little depressed, but at most it would be depressed for a few days, and then he would find a way to compete with King Zhao for the legacy of the Dongfan.

King Zhao was afraid that he would beat drums and sing a big show at home for a few days.

Even if King Zhao was not too hard to do anything due to his identity, he was his cousin after all, and he was a cousin who fought for power and profit and could not say anything about killing people for this, but the cousin could not fight against him. The cousin died at the hands of an outside enemy. The cousin jumped up excitedly at home. It was a bit embarrassing to say that when this was heard, it was a bit embarrassing that King Zhao would not be too happy, but Xu Ziwei and Xu Ziwen and others were really going crazy.

Xu Zixian showed a contemptuous smile on his face. These people had no ability except for internal struggle. To be honest, even internal struggles were not an opponent. Now Xu Zixian was thinking about consolidating the foundation and the real foundation, so he retreated for the time being. Now the foundation is solid, and when the day of the civil strife in Fujian Road, then, let these short-sighted rats see what the arrival of a king is.

In front of you, the sea was full of fireworks, extremely dazzling and gorgeous. The wonders in front of you were the most magnificent sonata played by the soldiers with loyalty, life, pain and blood. Only these loyal and brave soldiers would take the risk to take a gamble without military orders, and it was quite obvious that they succeeded.

A large number of warships caught fire, and they were often painted and oil-washed. They were originally giant ships made of dry wood, and were extremely fragile in the face of fire attacks. As long as the fire lights were together, they were basically helpless.

Although there is water all around, and endless sea water is at your feet, how to use it? The flame tongue first licked the side of the boat and then burned it to the deck. At that time, the people on the deck felt that the fire was not big, but if they didn't jump into the sea to escape at this time, they would basically lose the chance of escaping.

After the flames licked on the deck, they would burn all the decks with sails and ropes in the shortest time. At this time, the entire ship became a huge torch. Many people only thought of escaping from the sea to escape, but it was too late. So in the eyes of Xu Zixian and others, a large number of pirates ran out of the most prosperous place of the fire, and their bodies were in flames, becoming a moving fireman. They screamed and ran to the side of the ship with the same strong fire, jumped down suddenly. Nine out of ten would die in the sea water because they had suffered severe burns and were confused. They were instantly unconscious and drowned when the sea water was stimulated.
