Eating too much is not a good thing. There are no stomach-enhancing and digestive tablets in this era. After a hot pot at noon, Qian Yuan still had a full stomach without eating at night. In the end, he could only squeeze some hawthorn juice to digest the food.

Now there is nothing else in Suiyuan, but as long as Qian Yuan feels any discomfort, Lu will come over and talk endlessly.

After dealing with my aunt, seeing that Xu Wei, who still lives in Suiyuan, had turned off the lights, Qian Yuan nodded to Yang Wen. After a while, Zhou Ze appeared in the study.

The day after Hu Ruzhen and Liu Xian led their troops to Tongxiang, Qian Yuan brought twenty guards to Beijing, and most of the remaining guards remained in Tongxiang, and Zhou Ze returned to Taizhou through Jinhua.

In terms of trust, Qian Yuan trusted the most in the guard team Yang Wen and Zhang San, followed by Zhou Ze, but he didn't believe in Wang Yi, but this person was Zeng Xian's old subordinate, and he was determined to avenge Zeng Xianxue's injustice.

"Okay, sit down." Qian Yuan pointed to the stool that was arranged, "How about Taizhou?"

"All peace is there. General Qi and Prefect Tan defeated the Japanese pirates from both sides. There are about two thousand Japanese pirates who invaded Taizhou, and more than half of them were killed. The rest fled into the sea. General Qi took a boat to sea and defeated the Japanese pirates again more than ten miles from Xiangshan."

Zhou Ze held the teacup handed by Yang Wen, "The little one went to Sanmen Town first. Several brothers rescued by General Qi were recuperating there. Then he brought a brother to the sea to guide him. Because General Qi had just swept the nearby waters, the sea was very empty and there was no other ships. He arrived at the island in the evening of the day."

"Qi Yuanjing has a good choice in naval battles and land battles..." Qian Yuan recalled the map. If Hu Ruzhen could transfer Qi Jiguang to the vicinity of Dinghai, Ningbo, it would be deterrent to Zhoushan on the one hand, and on the other hand, it would not have to bypass Tiantai and Tianmen Mountains, and directly approach Xiangshan Port to assist Taizhou.

In fact, Shanghai was not very suitable for doing maritime trade in the Ming Dynasty. The two most suitable places in Zhejiang and Susong areas are: Hangzhou and Ningbo. The former is because it is located at the southern end of the north and south canals, with extremely convenient transportation, and the latter is because of Zhoushan. This mainly depends on the trust of the maritime merchants in the government and the deterrence of the Japanese pirates.

Pulling back the thoughts, Qian Yuannunu’s chin, “Continue.”

"I took three brothers to hide on the island for ten days..." Zhou Ze licked his lips, "and then... Zhou Ji went to the island."

Zhou Ji was Zhou Ze's younger brother. Both of them were tenants of the Qian family. Zhou Ze was the first to return to Songjiang after the Battle of Jiading and pulled his younger brother Zhou Ji into the guard team.

A few months ago, Zhou Ji was given to Tan Wei by Qian Yuan. If he were alive, maybe Tan Wei could live...

"With Tongxiang City, Zhou Ji is here too." Zhou Ze swallowed, "It was him who took the lead in pulling Boss Tan to escape first..."

Qian Yuan lowered his eyes silently. He saw these in the telescope that day, and even clearly saw Zhou Ji whipping on Tan Wei's horse thighs.

"Xu Hai stayed near Zaolin to gather the remaining soldiers, and then went north to Wuzhen, and Boss Tan was slapped..." Zhou Ze looked at Qian Yuan's face. He didn't know Tan Wei's identity, but he was sure that Tan Wei was an important piece of Qian Yuan's nail to the Japanese pirates.

Qian Yuan closed his eyes and said.

"It's not dead, it's not dead." Zhou Ze first spitted out words to make Qian Yuan feel at ease, and then said: "Three fingers were chopped off with his left hand and thirty whips... After leaving the sea, he returned to his nest. Zhou Ji said that Boss Tan and the three hundred Japanese pirates left under him were demoted to hard labor."

With a long exhalation, Qian Yuan rubbed his temple hard. It would be fine if he didn't die, and it would be fine if he didn't die... In the past few years, he has been used to life and death, killing many Japanese pirates with his hands, and even forced himself to ignore human lives in several wars, but he couldn't bear to hear the news of Tan Wei being killed.

The solemn atmosphere in the study room became a little lighter, and Qian Yuan asked: "In other words, Boss Tan has no worries about his life?"

"Yes." Zhou Ze's face looked a little strange, and hesitated for a while and added: "Zhou Ji said... it is said that someone is talking for him."

Qian Yuan had no expression on his face, and Yang Wen next to him glanced at him. He was an insider. Qian Yuan had two stealing doors in Chongde, and he and Zhang San followed him.

"Drink some water." Qian Yuan personally picked up the teapot and added some hot water to Zhou Ze. "I have worked hard all the way."

"It's all right." Zhou Ze took a sip of water to warm up his body and continued, "Zhou Ji, that boy, asked me to bring back the news. This time, Xu Hai took nearly 3,000 young men to sea, and his strength increased greatly. He invaded the coastal areas again in the future. Boss Tan could not find out the news."

Qian Yuan nodded and thought in his mind that the Zhejiang general and deputy general were both imprisoned for crimes. Where will the newly arrived Yu Dayou, Qi Jiguang... Hu Ruzhen arrange them?

Passive defense is always not a long-term solution, but the strength of the official army cannot go out to sea to attack Huanglong. At present, there are only Dong Bangzheng, Yu Dayou and Qi Jiguang who have warships under their command, which is far from comparable to Japanese pirates. Qi Jiguang's victory this time was mainly because his opponents were too weak, and they were all scattered soldiers and brave men.

Maybe he can lure the enemy... Qian Yuan's mind changed rapidly and had a rough plan in his mind.

However, this plan still needs to be well crafted. Qian Yuan did not think about it for now and asked again: "Have you given all the things that the Governor's Office promised?"

"I gave it all." Zhou Ze smiled and said, "This time it was quite satisfying. Not only our guards, Songjiang soldiers, Yiwu soldiers, Wolf soldiers and Jiaxing soldiers all received a large number of weapons to supplement them. When they passed by Hangzhou in Shangjing, it turned out that Zhang Siwei's house had already hung a plaque in the food garden."

"Are all the pensions given?"

"The other teams are not very clear, but our guard team has received pensions. In addition, the young grandma has promised fertile land, which is also the routine of the guard team."

"Where are the craftsmen?"

Zhou Ze uttered, "The Governor's Office allocated a group of craftsmen... but in name it was allocated to Taizhou Prefecture..."

Qian Yuan's face suddenly turned black, so Tan Lun wanted to intercept the fool again!

Zhou Ze quickly changed the topic, "By the way, half a month ago, General Qi went out to sea to pursue him. A small group of Japanese pirates landed from Jiaohu and rushed all the way to Linhai. Fortunately, the soldiers guarding the city were working hard, but many were injured. The young lady took her maids, servants and many female members of the guard team to get injured for the soldiers..."

“How effective?”

Qian Yuan asked this question, Zhou Ze and Yang Wen both looked a little strange. The female relatives of wealthy families came forward to cover the soldiers. Master, don’t care about your wife’s reputation but the effect?

"It's not bad. I stayed in Linhai for two days and heard that many soldiers had to amputate their legs, but they hugged them in the end, which was inconvenient at most." Zhou Ze praised: "Some people in Linhai County have called the young grandmother Guanyin descending to earth."

Qian Yuan smiled. Xiaoqi might be able to find the meaning of existence in this era. Although he watched movies in his previous life, he was a doctor after all.

But Qian Yuan laughed a little early...

Linhai County, Tan Lun, who finally had a few days off, looked helplessly at her cousin who was still complaining. To be fair, Tan Lun was very grateful to Xiaoqi. Not only was she amazing poetry, but she also had a compassionate heart.

But the problem is that Tan couldn't stand it. His son was not here, and his daughter-in-law ran out to cover the injured men and even started to do it himself... Once Tan couldn't help but run to look at it. Xiaoqi was applying medicine to a soldier whose thigh was exposed.

It is normal to be in later generations, but in this era... Tan was so angry that he fainted. After waking up, he cursed Xiaoqi and claimed that he wanted his son to divorce his wife.
