Chapter 266 No pants

In the early days of the Age of Discovery, it was indeed worthy of being a life-threatening life. Even in the Western world, except for pirates and fanatics who spread the gospel, ordinary people are not willing to go out easily.

The government can only drive some thieves, fraudsters, pagans, and in short, social garbage overseas. Just like the United States and Australia were originally shelters for people and places for exile for criminals. Just like the Far East of Russia, of course, there were also places such as Lingnan in ancient China as exiles.

If Gu Zhenhua wants to recruit Dashun Army peacefully and smoothly, he has to give some people a way out. In this way, he can be at ease and pave the way for overseas development. It is to deploy the flag in advance!

"Madam, I have a connection with the Ryukyu royal family. The northern part of the Ryukyu Kingdom was occupied by Japanese pirates. They were unable to expel the bandits, so they thought of letting the Ming Dynasty take action. But you know the current situation, and you can't take care of it at all."

"So the Duke of the State wants my sister to go overseas!" Gao Yigong couldn't help but say, "What can their orphans and widows do?"

"Of course it's not an orphan and widowed mother. Liu Fangliang and Hao Yaoqi also went out. In addition, they can also select a group of loyal and brave soldiers to go out to sea together!"

"That's not the case." Li Guo said: "Not mentioning the risks at sea, even if you really go overseas, can you deal with the Japanese pirates with this little force? Think about how much effort Qi Jiguang and the others spent to defeat the Japanese pirates and let a group of defeated soldiers go out. Wouldn't it be a stone with eggs?"

Gu Zhenhua smiled and waved his hand: "General Li, of course I will not ignore it. You see An**'s arms, I can give it a gun, a person. Help train the army and fight against Japanese pirates little by little. If one day I can occupy a piece of Japanese land, you will be king and dominate there and domineering, I will not even care about it!"

Gao Guiying asked: "Duke Ji, are you saying true? How many weapons can you give us?"

"For the time being, there are only two hundred muskets. This is provided for free. You can find a way to make money. Then buy it from An**. Don't worry, you need to have money. Weapons will continue to flow. And if you have a base, I can also allocate some craftsmen!"

"Hmph, Duke Ji is such a good plan. This is to let us go out and be pirates. OK. I agree!"

When Li Guo and the others saw Gao Guiying nodding, they all showed worries on their faces.

"Auntie, this is probably inappropriate?"

"There is nothing wrong." Gao Guiying said proudly: "After being an emperor, his seed is half the emperor's life. He cannot be unknown all his life. I will take Hu'er out and try it out. If I can really be an overseas emperor, it will be a blessing. Don't persuade me."

Gao Yigong frowned: "Sister, why don't I go out with you!"

"I'll go too!" Li Guo also said.

Gao Guiying smiled and waved her hand: "There are small fusses overseas, and the land of China is the place for your real men to use. Besides, if you all leave, who can help me contact An**? If Duke Ji doesn't admit his promise, who should I go to!"

Li Guo and Gao Yigong had nothing to say. After some discussion, Gao Guiying took the children, Liu Fangliang and Hao Yaoqi to go out to sea. At the same time, they selected the most loyal 500 people among the prisoners as the troops that started their own business. Li Guo and Gao Yigong surrendered to An** and assisted Gu Zhenhua in maintaining order in Shaanxi.

"Duke Ji, let me go out to sea too. I know astronomy and geography, and I have unparalleled strategies. I will protect the queen and the little master and fight together!" Niu Jinxing said wailingly.

Before Gu Zhenhua could speak, Gao Guiying suddenly kicked Niu Jinxing on the chin, kicking him out.

"A man surnamed Niu, you can deceive the dirty things you do yourself, but you can't hide them from me. If it weren't for you, could Li Yan die? You can't escape the death of Luo Hu."

Gao Yigong also said: "That's right, this time you encouraged Liu Fangliang and the others to join the Tartars. As far as I know, when you were in northern Shaanxi, you had already hooked up with the Tartars and betrayed the King of Chuang. You are a traitor like you, so wait for the five cars to split!"

Even if Gao Guiying didn't say it, Gu Zhenhua wouldn't let Niu Jinxing go. After all, Hongmao hated him to the core and wanted to keep it to vent his anger for Hongmao.

Li Zicheng died, and the blame was also put on Liu Zhong. Although the Dashun Army was still dissatisfied, at least there was an explanation, especially Gao Guiying took his little master to sea and saved his life. The big guy also comforted him a lot. After all, those who have rebelled have been able to protect their wives and children, which is considered as God's favor.

As for Li Guo and Gao Yigong, they also became members of An**. Their mission is to rectify all Dashun Army. The Dashun Army in Shaanxi is also an elite force. After a long battle, the total number is nearly 80,000.

However, the indicators given by Gu Zhenhua were no more than 10,000 people, and Li Guo was still a little dissatisfied and thought that more could be selected. But An** sent a battalion of soldiers, who was led by Wu Huanju, and started a competition with the Dashun Army.

The Dashun Army sent five thousand people, but in the end, whether it was the skills of individual soldiers or the battle formation, the Dashun Army was not enough. In the end, the 5,000 people were chased by 500 people and ran around the world, completely losing face.

Li Guo and Gao Yigong's face flushed with shame, but they also felt An**'s strength, so they honestly selected everyone according to the requirements, and would use any unqualified ones.

"Dude, Li Guo and Gao Yigong are quite capable." Wu Kaijie reported with a smile: "In five days, they have selected more than 2,000 soldiers, and the rest have all been discharged from the army and returned to the fields. We have transferred a lot of military farm officials from Henan and grouped them. We just waited for spring to arrive to sow cultivated land. With a good harvest, these people will settle down!"

Wu Kaijie was very happy to say it, but Gu Zhenhua frowned, obviously not so optimistic.

"This is the information I just received, take a look!"

Gu Zhenhua delivered a document to Wu Kaijie. Wu Kaijie hurriedly took it over and looked at it with a look of ten lines.

"Will this be so serious?"

"I guess it will be even more serious than this. Shaanxi suffered a much more serious military disaster than Henan. Moreover, Shaanxi has always been a poor province, has a weak foundation, and is tough in the people. In addition, the Dashun Army has been working hard for the back and forth, it is not easy to recover!"

Gu Zhenhua smiled bitterly and said, "According to what is written above, there are sixteen major tyrants around Xi'an. They were originally landlords, but in the chaos, they recruited big players, trained their own troops, and built fortresses. Most of them could control tens of thousands of people, and the few were three or five thousand, just like a group of local emperors!"

Wu Kaijie also frowned and couldn't help but say, "Dude, it's really troublesome to say that. The landlords and powerful people who can survive in troubled times can be said to have no good things. Do you think you have directly mobilized the army and wiped out them all?"

Gu Zhenhua said: "It is inevitable to clean them up, but we have to calculate the cost. After all, the people in Shaanxi are in a difficult situation and sparsely populated areas. Moreover, there are Tartars eyeing them in the north, and Zhang Xianzhong's Western Army in the south, so it might be a big burden. An** is now weak and I don't know whether she can carry it up!"

While talking, Kang Dali came over to report and said that Chen Qianfu was coming, and Gu Zhenhua hurried out to greet him in person.

As soon as they met, Chen Qianfu looked sad and sighed.

"Mr., the situation is probably really bad. There are hunger everywhere along the way, deserted villages everywhere, and some people are controlled by powerful people. After passing several county towns, all the local officials and gentry reached out to ask for food. It is hard for a skilled woman to cook without rice, so I am helpless!"

Wu Kaijie couldn't help but say, "Mr. Chen, haven't we got so much food from Jiangnan? Isn't it enough?"

"The people in Henan are also hungry and they will be harvested for three months. If you don't receive any green and yellow food, this is the most difficult time."

Gu Zhenhua frowned and said, "Mr. Chen, don't complain here. Please accompany me to the countryside to see how the people are doing?"

Chen Qianfu hurriedly agreed, and Gu Zhenhua and dozens of people left Xi'an and walked all the way south. After they were more than ten miles away from the city, they could hardly see people.

Walking to a wasteland, Chen Qianfu jumped off his war horse and used his hands to pick the hard land. He couldn't help but sigh: "Dude, this land has not been plowed for at least three years, and the soil has been done. Even if it starts plowing this year, the harvest will not be good!"

Gu Zhenhua frowned, and a stone was pressed into his heart. After walking for a while, a village finally appeared in front of him, located in the valley, with more than a dozen smoke columns.

"Go and go and have a look."

"Dude, don't go there first, so as not to scare them away. I'll go to the front station first!" Wu Kaijie rushed over, and soon he came with a middle-aged man.

As soon as he saw Gu Zhenhua, the man hurriedly knelt on the ground.

"Master Cao Min kowtowed."

Bang bang bang bang, my head touched the ground.

"Dude, this is Lao Sun. If you have anything to say, please ask him."

Gu Zhenhua jumped off the war horse with a smile, helped Lao Sun up, and said with a smile: "You lead the way, I'll go to your house to sit!"

Lao Sun looked embarrassed, but he didn't dare to refuse, so he could only walk ahead.

"The countryside is simple, I laugh when I see you, I laugh when I see you!"

They came all the way to the front of two broken thatched houses. Gu Zhenhua was tall and almost had to waist to get in.

Not to mention the darkness in the room, there is still a stench, which smells so bad.

As a bodyguard, Kang Dali had already entered the house and looked around.

"What is under the quilt, why are you moving around?"

Lao Sun hurriedly said, "June, that's the villain's wife and children, nothing else!"

"Are you sick?"

"Not sick!"

Gu Zhenhua smiled and said, "Since you are not sick, don't hide, I will ask them what you want."
