Like Wang Zhi, Li Baldou was the first Japanese pirates to enter the sea. He, Deng Liao and Yao Da, occupied the island together. At first, he borrowed the power of Franji people to build a port on Shuangyu and set up a market. Later, he simply turned Shuangyu into the largest pirate port in East Asia.

Eighty-quarters of the silk and porcelain produced in Zhejiang and Fujian flow into Shuangyu, forming commercial routes from Japan, Shuangyu and Malacca. The transaction amount of maritime pirates from various countries at Shuangyu Port in a single day reached 100,000 taels of silver.

This is what Long Junxiong heard from the rumors about Japanese pirates. No one knows whether all the exaggeration is involved.

But what is certain is that Li Baldou is sitting in Shuangyu to collect rent and handed over Shuangyu Port to Fanyi. They set up schools, churches and hospitals on the island, and they collected taxes and commissions from everyone else, making Shuangyu Port extremely prosperous in a short period of time.

The smuggling port at the gate of the Ming Dynasty would inevitably not last long. At the order of the Governor of Fujian, 380 warships and 6,000 troops rushed into Shuangyu, winning a complete victory, blocking stones and destroying the port.

Li Baldou was also captured and killed by the official army during that war.

It was miserable to think about it. It was considered a person who had done a great job. He died before he even saw his unborn son.

Chen Mu thought about it later that twenty years later, his son guarded eight small broken boats in Haojingao, dreaming of conquering the sea, and was also considered as the son of a pirate family who inherited his father's business.

This time Fu Yuan was sent to Haojing and did not dare to delay it. He rushed back in just five days and told Chen Mu about the situation he saw.

"Fifty-seven people, including men and women, old and young. There are nineteen survivors in Japan, North Korea, Franji, and Malacca, and the rest are all Ming people." Fu Yuan still remembered the fact that Chen Mu was displeased with the failure to do a few days ago. He smiled and respectfully presented the map of Haojing's car, saying: "Although the elderly are weak, sick and disabled, even the women know how to learn bird guns. They are very powerful in Haojing. Haojing's beggars and Lifu Group leader listen to him."

"This picture was drawn by Li Dan for someone to find. Qianhu, you can see it, it's so exquisite!"

As the saying goes, there are good things to do, and there are good things to do, so you have to be the leader of the people’s industry.

Although they may not be highly respected, they have a high reputation in the industry and have different social status in groups in various industries.

Needless to say, the tuft heads in Zhejiang Silk Making must be local tycoons, and the tuft heads of the beggar Haojing must beg for food, so their status is naturally very different.

"So, they are still capable." Chen Mu casually opened the map, looked at the familiar and unfamiliar composition on it, and smiled, "They are pictures obtained by the foreigners, which are quite exquisite."

The beauty mirror is not big, but it is not small. Although I don’t know how the Japanese pirates got this map, the composition is fine enough to roughly draw the height of the island, but also bring several groups of people to the activity area.

Franji people built a large-scale construction in the south of Haojing, and to the north was the territory of the Ming Dynasty's maritime merchants and pirates. It was directly opposite the east of Guangzhou Prefecture, where the officials guarding the Australian government and the people of Haojing lived.

A small island, two ports.

This is not only the commercial prosperity of Haojingao, but also shows that the Ming Dynasty's dominance over this land has dropped to a minimum.

He clearly saw this land in front of him, but he didn't even have the soldiers to guard him on the island.

The more I look at it, the more annoying it!

"Don't worry about Hao Jingao for now. What did they think? You have seen that Li Dan." Chen Mu took Fu Yuan out of the main hall of Qianhu Yamen, and across the two courtyard walls, he could still hear the sound of the family soldiers firing guns under Qi Zhengyan's leadership, "Can they use it for me?"

"This is all determined by a thousand households, how dare you make a decision on a low-ranking position?"

Fu Yuan smiled and said, "But their situation is not good, and their words are full of concerns about the troubles of the foreigners. They have no food, and the entire Haojingao has no food. Once the imperial court is stuck, the Franjets will not eat long after they have food on the ship. The Japanese pirates stationed on the sea cannot do it, and Haojing will be in chaos."

"You have brought back useful news! Go and call the family soldiers, and the Dusi transferred the warships to Qianhushou. "

The lack of food in Haojingao is good news. Although Fu Yuanyi thought of it when Chen Mu said that, it is still easy to be ignored in normal times. It is just that big land that feeds tens of thousands of local people and tens of thousands of local people. Once the court bans food and grass, it will be out of food in less than three months.

"I have been worried recently. I may feel relieved when I go to see the warships throttled by the court."

The reason for Chen Mu's bad mood is very simple. Now his subordinates urgently need a flag army to support the scene. They originally wanted Shao Tingda to train the hundreds of official lieutenants in the ward station, and even he chose two small flags from the official lieutenants to be the main lieutenants.

If you can't choose, Xiangshan Institute is different from Qingyuanwei. It's not that closed. The strong and powerful person swam south at night. It's also much more comfortable to be a pirate than a flag army. Therefore, what are left are the elderly, weak, sick and disabled, which is only one aspect.

In terms of subjective conditions, they did not have the innate qualities to become elite soldiers, and the objective environment did not allow Chen Mu to let them train.

After two days of training, a gunman who left a small flag to Shi Qi and took the gun to fire. The remaining 120 people followed Lou Qi to connect to Xiangshan County to dig out the road to Jiudu, the first room outside Huangliangdu, and set up a hut in the forest.

Xie Ming, who is both a teacher and a steward of the accounting office, made a calculation for Mr. Chen, who hired him. The efficiency of nearly 400 troops was extremely poor because of the mixed land of the army and wasteland. If he wanted to plant 12,000 acres of land around the Qingming Festival, he would have slept next to the tunnel at night.

The army had no spare time to build a hut. County Magistrate Zhou Xing was busy selecting people who could not live on in Xiangshan County, and prisoners were used as flag soldiers.

When Zhou Xinggou Haojun comes, they must have a place to live, otherwise they will be very uncomfortable if they run away for three days.

Besides, there are many other problems. The garrison lacks enough weapons, and the swords, spears, fire guns are only enough to arm a hundred people. The arsenal is so clean that mice are reluctant to stay for too long. There are so many troubles.

Xiangshan Wei is not far from the ferry where the boats can be stopped. The closer it is to the ferry, the greater the expectations for what the warship sent by the imperial court will be.

In the past few days, he has looked into the river from the arrow tower at Qianhushu. From the suburbs of Guangcheng, the sea of ​​the Taxation Department has various Mingyi East-West Shipbuildings, all kinds of large and small, traveling around every day. Now he will also get his own ships and warships.

As he approached the ferry, Chen Mu, who was riding on his horse, looked into the river, and five fast boats were parked at the ferry.

His eyes became dark, and five flat-bottomed and flat-headed boats docked side by side in shallow water entered his eyes. Baili Xiaozhan, who was less than six feet long and nine feet wide, stopped there safely on the boat.

The old-fashioned small sails and large oars cannot be installed even with short range guns like the Franchise. If you want to take a boat, you will have to take two points.

If this is the case alone, Chen Mu would not feel sad - the five Clippers were clearly docked on the sea farther away from the sea, the ten-foot-long ship gunboat belonging to the wild!

What he wants is that big guy, not this kind of gadget!

"Chen Qianhu, please get on the boat!" The battalion soldiers on the boat could not see the deep disappointment in Chen Mu's eyes, and he clasped his fists and shouted: "It is not easy for the big ship to come in, Chen Shoujie is waiting for you in the Maritime Bureau!"

And a big ship?

Chen Mu quickly stepped forward with expectations.
