The guards were not fools. Who would not understand what Liu Guoxuan meant after his words? Everyone was still happy. When Liu Guoxuan whispered to the emperor and rewarded him, he felt that the seal and letter of appointment in his hand were a bit hot.

Logically speaking, they were also the garrison of the Jinxia Navy, and even if they were promoted and rewarded, it was the matter of King Yanping. Now that the court issued a letter of appointment to them, most of the people here already know some things.

Someone asked carefully: "General Liu, you just said that the court enfeoffed us as a thousand households in the Eastern Navy Camp. How dare you ask if this Eastern Navy Camp is a battalion? You have never heard of it before."

Seeing that they were suspicious, Liu Guoxuan glanced at the outside of the camp, and thought that the Jinyiwei and his confidants had surrounded the camp, so he simply showed up with these guards. He was still going to be promoted or rich, and they could decide for themselves.

"I am not telling secret words. King Yanping and the generals in the army have been invited by the emperor to enjoy the peace and prosperity. I will not ask about military affairs again. From then on, the Jinxia Navy was officially renamed the Dongyang Navy Camp and inspected the Dongyang Affairs. Today, the general has received the emperor's grace and orders to be the commander of the Dongyang Navy Camp. Everyone has been good brothers who have been born and died together. Whether you stay here to serve as a thousand households or walk out of this camp and don't ask about military affairs from now on, I will not force you to make a decision. But I am saying ugly things ahead. The Jinxia Navy was originally the fleet of my Ming Dynasty, not the private property of King Yanping. If anyone dares to talk about the crowd, I will never give up."

Silence, terrible silence, the candlelight in the camp swayed and shone on every pale face of the guard, and the seals and commissions held in their hands were already covered in sweat.

To be honest, most of the garrisons were promoted by generals. Although they were unqualified officials, those officials who promoted them were kind to them. There is no doubt about this. In addition, this Jinxia Navy was built by Zheng Zhilong, the grandfather of Yanping, when he was a pirate in the East. Although he was later recruited by the court and became a navy within the Ming Dynasty, most people did not have much attachment to the court, and their morale was still towards Yanping.

Zhu Jun is a very happy person. He only has one way to govern people. He sets two ways for you, one is to follow me. I will immediately get promoted and make money. If you don’t go to the road, then there is another way. Even if you don’t die, you will have to take off your skin. This is called the use of kindness and power. This is used against the Western Priest Ams, and this is also the same against Liu Guoxuan. Now, the garrison must also make a choice.

"Everyone, we are all Han people. The hearts of Han people in the world are towards the Ming court. The reason why we join the army is that we have no way to survive. We have to make a future for ourselves. Secondly, the Tartars attacked our hometown, slaughtered our brothers and sisters, and made it difficult for us to get back. This bloody hatred is the man who is a man. Seeing the garrison hesitant, Liu Guoxuan spoke in a slander and said in a puzzled voice: "As long as you follow the emperor, I, Liu Guoxuan, can guarantee your future. In the future, when Liu splits the land and becomes a marquis, it will be the time for all brothers to make achievements. Following the King of Yanping is to kill the Tartars. Isn't following the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty killing the Tartars? Liu went to the city today to meet the saints. He already knew that my emperor was a lord of a generation, and his civil and military skills were even rare in a century. Liu could work hard for him, even if he died, it would be worth it."

"Some of you still want to be loyal to King Yanping. I just ask you? Which of you is not a veteran who crawled out of the pile of dead people? Which one has not shed blood for King Yanping and was hit by a knife. But why are you just a level 5-level garrison officer, while those scholars who only lose their books and a few old men from the Zheng family are majestic and guerrilla?"

"After all, King Yanping looked down on us. What are we? We are just a dog of the Zheng family. Just talk about Liu. When King Yanping Zheng successfully besieged Zhangzhou, if Liu hadn't fought his life, he wouldn't convince Zhang Shiyao to surrender. Can the weak army of King Yanping capture Zhangzhou? But what did Liu get? After King Yanping's years, when did I, Liu, retreat in the battlefield? Which time did I, Liu, retreat in a fearless way? But why did he surrender to those generals who had never fought to kill a man and were under guerrilla war?"

Liu Guoxuan clenched his fists and beat the table. He amplified the volume: "Isn't King Yanping looking down on us martial artists and humble people. But the emperor looks down on us. The emperor not only ordered me to be the commander of the navy camp, but also gave you a letter of appointment for a thousand-household land. Everyone gave Liu a letter of approval. They were all mankind and there was nothing hesitant."

"General Liu. I, Li Defu, followed the emperor and followed you." Li Defu made his debut by strutting the letter of appointment in his hand.

"I'm the only one. Who wouldn't you kill the Tartars? King Yanping must obey the orders of the Ming Emperor. Otherwise, he would be plotting against rebellion and causing chaos." Another guard stood up.

"General Liu treats our brothers well on weekdays. Brothers trust you. Why do you say that brothers are following you? Bastards keeping a land? General Liu says this. Brothers are trying hard in front of you. It may not be necessary that King Yanping will be granted an official title. But as soon as we landed on the shore, the emperor gave our descendants a strong job. No one is fool. Good or bad always distinguishes the land."

More people stood up. In the end, all the guards turned against each other. The four words "Big Heads" were not as knowledgeable as the literati and the officials. The four words "seeking profit and avoiding harm" were deeply engraved into their bones. They came out to fight and bleed, and took their own lives. They were not promoted or made money for the land. Now they have the iron rice bowl of the Thousand Houses. What else can you say? Even if you are unwilling to betray the King of Yanping for the past for yourself. But what if you include your descendants?

What's more, the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty was also the nominal boss of King Yanping. He was also the unique leader of the Han people. What is the difference between serving him and serving King Yanping?

The guards figured it out and smiled relaxed on their faces. Now they are also upright officers, which makes them much prouder. With this status, they feel at ease. Just like temporary workers in their previous lives, if you don’t think of a way to turn yourself into a regular basis, you may not even sleep well, and you may be able to drive you one day.

"Okay, let's not talk much. Tomorrow the Ministry of War will send new clothes and armor, as well as food and supplies. Everyone will go back to rest early. Japan will take you to distribute clothes and food and salary. Everyone should rest for a few days and practice well. I heard that the emperor will also allocate a few new warships for our Dongyang Navy Camp. Brothers, work hard, one day, we will enjoy a day of peace and prosperity." Liu Guoxuan was overjoyed. The garrison officer was a bridge between senior officers and ordinary soldiers. As long as these people were willing to work with him, the Dongyang Navy Camp would be stable.
