The two of them did not carry any weapons, and Liu Yi stored their weapons at the dock. Zheng Zhilong believed in Liu Yi. After all, judging from the previous incidents, Liu Yi was a person who did what he said. Although he was young, he had a promise.

The two of them came to the north gate of Wuhu County. They were about to enter the city, but they heard a shout, "Please dismount! Accept the inspection!" The two of them looked around and found that an officer guarding the gate was pointing at them. The officer trotted over and looked at him, looking at the dressing, which should be a small flag officer. It turned out that the officer was Li Fu. The city gate was changed today, and Li Fu's small flag was sent to guard the entrance of the north gate.

The Qingyi Army's main barracks and militias jointly assume the responsibility of defending the city, and the three counties of Taiping Prefecture are the same. However, Liu Yi has discussed with Zhou Zhihan to expand the scale of the militias. Since he had a stable source of money, Liu Yi is more confident in the expansion of the militias. Liu Yi's second step is to compile three militias of 1,200 people according to the county. In the future, the military camp will be directly used as a field army, while the internal guard forces are militias, responsible for defending the city. In addition, he also suggested that the martial arts field of the Hui merchants' children be used to make fewer people

Children in the year entered training and set up Boy Scouts as reserve troops. After the shipyard was built and produced, they would also use it to train a Yangtze River Navy. This is all things to be done in the future. As his official position grows bigger and bigger, he also needs to expand his team. At present, his team is full of military generals and technical personnel. There are few civil officials like Feng Chengshi, and he also needs some stewards and logistics talents. But where to find it now? Liu Yi has been worried.

Back at the north gate, Li Fu jogged to Zheng Zhilong's horse, clasped his fists and bowed lightly, saying, "Please dismount and cooperate with the inspection." Zheng Zhilong and Feng Chengshi were shocked by this small action at the same time. Looking at the Ming Dynasty, which officers and soldiers could do this. They did not wear official uniforms, but the dress of a civilian, the officer spoke so politely. Judging from the situation in front of him, not only did he, the old farmers, women, children, etc. entering the city, all kinds of people were required to be inspected, and the soldiers were clasped and saluted, and they were polite. If they were placed elsewhere, they would probably have hit the whip that had hit the head and face long ago.

This is a civilized army, a mighty army, which has the feeling of an ancient dignified army. Zheng Zhilong and Feng Chengshi dismounted as they said, and immediately came over to check them around them and checked them left and right, and checked whether there were any prohibited items on the horses. Finally, the two soldiers asked the two to spread their hands flat. They put on gloves and searched from top to bottom, but did not find any prohibited items. What's more humane is that Liu Yi also recruited some healthy women at the gate of each city.

The person was responsible for inspecting women. Zheng Zhilong saw some soldiers elsewhere taking advantage of the inspection to take advantage of the women. Unexpectedly, the settings here were so humane. After the soldiers checked, they retreated. Li Fu was about to let go, but suddenly he seemed to think of something. He pulled out the pistol on his waist and pointed at the two of them. As soon as he saw the commander like this, the soldiers of the entire small flag immediately raised their guns and aimed at the two of them. Zheng Zhilong was stunned for a moment. What was going on?

It turned out that it was because of Li Fu's carefulness. Although there was no problem with Zheng Zhilong and Feng Chengshi's clothing, the horses under their crotch were war horses. The Qingyi Army's war horses were easy to recognize. Such strong and graceful war horses can rarely be seen in the south. Judging from the age of these two people and the exquisite equestrian skills of the vanguard, they did not look like ordinary soldiers, and they had a murderous aura of no anger. They should be people who had been on the battlefield. However, from veterans to officers, Li Fu could remember their faces. He had never seen such a person, so where did the war horses under his crotch come from? This aroused Li Fu's alertness.

A dozen black guns pointed at Zheng Zhilong with a 26-style black hole. Li Fu asked: "The horse under your crotch should only be available in this area. This is a military horse. Good horses like the southern part are rare. Unless they are a noble person, they don't look like you, please explain your identity, otherwise you may be in big trouble today."

Zheng Zhilong dressed up like this but didn't want to expose himself. Firstly, because he helped Liu Yi do these things and couldn't let others know, and he needed to do some disguise. In addition, he didn't want to expose himself even more on Liu Yi's territory. After all, the two were enemies and now they were not friends. It was just a cooperative relationship. Moreover, many people died in the war in the Southeast War. There were probably many people who hated him, so Zheng Zhilong just wanted to go to the city to visit his family in a low-key manner, but he didn't expect to get involved in such a thing.

But now these soldiers surrounded him, and the crowd entering the city stopped to look here. The general flag on the city gate tower saw the strangeness below and was ready to come down to see the situation. What should I do? Zheng Zhilong was a little anxious. Feng Chengshi, who was on the side, quickly took out a ticket of 100 taels from his arms and handed it over with both hands: "This general, we have just come from Zhongxuzhou Wharf. This war horse is the war horse of the Qingyi Army. It was lent to me by the general of the wharf. We have contact with the Huishang General and are suppliers of the Huishang General, so we can borrow the war horse of the Qingyi Army. This is not a respect, so we will take it to the brothers for tea."

One hundred taels are equivalent to the income of ordinary soldiers of the Ming Dynasty in the past ten years. If you only look at military pay, it will be the income of an ordinary soldier for four or five years. If you were in other places, the soldiers would have smiled and opened up the two of them into the city. However, the Qingyi army is a army of faith and the salary is also very good. As the level increases, the salary also doubles. For example, as a small banner, Li Fu's basic salary reaches fifty taels every year, and the rewards for combat and good training results are not included. The key is that the fair and just upgrade system of the Qingyi army gives the soldiers a motivation to improve, so the 100 taels vote is not very attractive to Li Fu. Moreover, after the war, Li Fu's entire spiritual level has been improved. He is no longer the soldier who attracts enemy artillery fire under the city and is no longer the trembling soldier with his legs. He is now a small flag official, a commander, and he is responsible for the brothers in a small flag, and he is even more strict with himself.

Li Fu pushed away the silver notes handed over by Feng Chengshi. Zheng Zhilong and Feng Chengshi's eyes flashed with surprise. Zheng Zhilong and Feng Chengshi suddenly understood. No wonder Qingyi Army is so capable, and no wonder they dare to use human flesh to block the cannons. This is an army of faith. Unfortunately, their belief is not money. If they want to dismantle these soldiers through bribery, this road may not work.

Zheng Zhilong had no choice but to see the commotion on the top of the city. If more people came here, it would be difficult to deal with it. In desperation, he had to take out the waist card from his arms and hand it over. Li Fu saw the Mingjun waist card and realized that this might be the Ming army, and it was an iron waist card that proved that this person was not low. He inserted his hand gun back to the gun sconceal and took the waist card. The soldiers behind him saw that the small flag officer put away the gun sconceal, lowered the gun sconceal, and no longer pointed directly at them.

Li Fu also knew a little word, at least he knew the three words Zheng Zhilong. He just glanced at him and immediately felt like he had a fixed body. He pinched the waist card tightly, his finger joints were a little white. He suddenly pulled out his pistol and pointed at them again. The soldiers saw him as if he was facing a great enemy. The muzzle that had just dropped was raised again to Zheng Zhilong. At that moment, Li Fu really wanted to pull the trigger. The person in front of him was Zheng Zhilong. It was because of this person that their Qingyi Army had killed and injured so many brothers. As long as he pulled the trigger now, the brothers' revenge would be avenged, but now he became an official army and a guerrilla general. What should I do?

Li Fu's hands were trembling. He was very hesitant and didn't know what to do. The general flag on the upper floor fell. He saw the situation at the city gate from afar and walked over to this side. It happened that the general Wu Dongming, who patrolled the city today. He led some cavalry to patrol the county town. When he passed by the north gate, he saw a lot of people surrounded here. Several soldiers shouted: "Everyone let me give in, General Wu is here."

Hearing the shouts, Li Fu came back to his senses and moved his finger away. Wu Dongming rode his horse over, and the crowd separated, and the soldiers raised their guns and saluted: "See sir!" Wu Dongming did not pay attention to the crowd on both sides, but came to Li Fu. He was about to ask questions, but suddenly his eyes widened because he saw a familiar face. Zheng Zhilong also saw him. The cavalry general who was fighting on Xiamen Street that day, both of them blurted out at the same time: "It's you!"

The soldiers looked at each other. Mr. Wu knew this man? Li Fu was also stunned for a moment. Unexpectedly, Mr. Wu and Zheng Zhilong had met. Wu Dongming certainly knew about the cooperation between Qingyi Army and Zheng Zhilong, and also knew that Zheng Zhilong was now a coastal defense guerrilla. Although they were enemies in the past, they were all officers and soldiers now. Wu Dongming is now the general manager of the army, and the pattern is naturally very different from before. He calmly said to Li Fu: "Let him enter the city." After that, he clasped his fists and saluted Zheng Zhilong. Although Zheng Zhilong said that he was his superior in military terms, he could not worship him in public because of their subtle relationship, so he could only hold his fists on the horse. Zheng Zhilong also understood in his heart that he and Feng Chengshi returned to his tribute at the same time. Li Fu returned the waist card to Zheng Zhilong, and the soldiers put down their guns and returned to their posts. The crowd saw that there was nothing fun to watch and they dispersed.

Zheng Zhilong turned over and walked past the two of them, saying, "Thank you two!" Li Fu just looked at him and did not answer. Wu Dongming said, "I know where you are going, I will take you there."

Zheng Zhilong understood what he meant, "Thank you!" He whipped the horse whip and followed Wu Dongming into the city with Feng Chengshi. Li Fu looked at Wu Dongming and wanted to speak again. Wu Dongming just said lightly: "Continue on duty!"
