Chapter five hundred and forty-eight reprimand
"That day, Bei Zhi led a fleet of nine sixth-class warships and three fifth-class warships to patrol near Nagasaki. When he encountered three unarmed merchant ships, the three merchant ships immediately turned around and fled. Before he could think about it, Bei Zhi ordered the fleet to chase after him. After less than two quarters of an hour of pursuit, Bei Zhi found that many enemy ships began to appear around him. At that time, Bei Zhi knew that he had been fooled. Originally, Bei Zhi ordered a breakthrough on the spot. If there were no other accidents, the Zheng family's warships could not catch up with us at all. But an accident occurred in the middle, which led to losses on the way to retreat."
When talking about this, Liu Xiang's breathing became rapid due to a long time of speaking, because she was a little exhausted.
The ward was very quiet. Yang Feng sat quietly beside the bed, listening to Liu Xiang telling the story of being ambushed that day. Although Yang Feng had heard Lu Guangbiao tell the general story, it was not as real and vivid as the person involved told it personally.
Hearing this, Yang Feng picked up the teapot from the edge of the bed, poured a cup of boiled water and handed it to him, then said in a deep voice, "What happened at that time?"
Liu Xiang took the water cup, took a sip, took a rest, and then said, "Bizhi met the Dutch on the way to retreat."
"Dutch?" The hand holding the teapot paused in the air for a while before asking, "Can you be sure?"
Liu Xiangbei bit his lips until he bit his fine tooth marks and then said: "It's certain that although these Dutch people replaced the flag with the Zheng family, their appearance of warships and the way of fighting were not forgotten even if they died. The injuries behind Bei Zhi were injured by them."
Although Liu Xiang's voice was very calm, Yang Feng could feel the hatred contained in her words. In this sneak attack, in addition to Liu Xiang's injury, three warships in the second fleet led by her were severely damaged, and dozens of sailors were killed and injured. How could she forget such hatred?
Yang Feng suddenly laughed: "Haha... Dutch... I am a little busy these days and I don't have time to pay attention to them. It seems that they disliked their lives being too comfortable."
"Marty, after Beizhi's injury is healed, please allow Beizhi to lead the Second Fleet to avenge the dead brothers!" Liu Xiang suddenly struggled and sat up, with a pair of beautiful eyes looking directly at Yang Feng and begging: "Beizhi cannot let those brothers die in vain."
"Deputy Admiral Liu, lie down quickly!"
Seeing that Liu Xiang actually sat up, Yang Feng was startled and held her shoulder in a hurry and said in a reproachful tone: "What are you doing? I finally escaped from the gates of hell. What should I do if you move randomly? If you break your wounds open again?"
Liu Xiang looked up at Yang Feng and said in a firm tone: "Mr. Marquis, you can agree to Bei Zhi's request first!"
Looking at the stubborn expression on Liu Xiang's pale pretty face, Yang Feng looked helpless: "Deputy Admiral Liu, it's not that I will not agree to you, but that you may have to work for a while until you recover from your injury before you have the chance to avenge those brothers who died in battle."
"What else is more important than revenge." Liu Xiang frowned, "The brothers who died in battle are still waiting for Bei Yi to avenge them. Bei Yi is really unwilling to wait for a moment."
Looking at the hatred in Liu Xiang's eyes, Yang Feng said lightly: "Deputy Admiral Liu, do you think that with the strength of our Fujian Navy, we can fight the Zheng family and the Dutch in a decisive battle?"
"I……"
Liu Xiang was a little mute at once. She was always reluctant and had to admit that it was difficult for the Fujian Navy to protect herself today, let alone the decisive battle with the Zheng family and the Dutch at the same time. The Fujian Navy had too few warships, and there were less than fifty warships in total. How to compete with the Zheng family and the Dutch?
"Don't you take revenge from brothers?" Liu Xiang murmured, and a line of crystal tears flowed down her pale and delicate face.
"Of course we have to avenge, but we have to wait for a while." Yang Feng said as he took out a handkerchief from his pocket and handed it to Liu Xiang. "Now our strength is still a little weak. After the New Year, we will have twenty-six new fifth-level warships launched. In addition to the ten third-level warships that just arrived today, we don't have to worry even if we encounter Zheng Zhilong's full-length camp."
After the New Year, a batch of new warships were launched on each ship. Liu Xiang naturally knew about this, but this was the first time she had heard of the ten warships that just arrived today.
As soon as she heard another new warship arrive, Liu Xiang's originally pale face suddenly turned red, and her eyes also showed a hot look. She ignored the handkerchief handed over by Yang Feng. She grabbed his wrist from somewhere and said anxiously: "Marty, what did you say... the new warship is still from level 3? Are you cheating on Beiyi?"
Since forming the Fujian Navy, Yang Feng has also brought modern classification of sail warships here, so Liu Xiang naturally knew very well what the third-level warship meant.
You should know that in the division, only warships with tonnage of more than 1,200 tons, 64 to 80 artillery pieces, and 490 to 720 members can be called third-class warships. These warships can only stay on the drawings at present, and there is no capacity to build on shipbuildings in various parts of Fujian for the time being, but now Yang Feng actually said that there were suddenly ten third-class warships. This news is like a sound of thunder and explosions in the sky for Liu Xiang, who regards warships as life.
Liu Xiang said tremblingly: "Hou...Hou, are you talking about it true? It's not just a way to make Bei Zhi happy, right?"
Seeing Liu Xiang's excited look, Yang Feng couldn't help but feel a little amused and said casually: "What are you lying to you for doing? Could it be that with these warships, can you be willing to promise yourself?"
After saying that, Yang Feng realized that in modern times, it might be a very common saying, and in this era of men and women's defense, it might be a very serious blasphemy language, and he quickly explained.
"Why... Deputy Admiral Liu, this marquis is just a joke, don't take it seriously."
Liu Xiang also blushed, and a hint of blush appeared on her pale face. She lowered her head and said for a while before muttering in a low voice: "If there were really these warships, it would be impossible to promise her body."
"Well……"
Yang Feng shook his head helplessly. He felt that this woman was hopeless. She probably had the best destination in her life to be a warship.
But after being embarrassed, Liu Xiang asked: "Mr. Marquis, you haven't told Bei Zhi yet whether those ten warships are real!"
Yang Feng glared at Liu Xiang angrily: "Of course it's true. Do you think this Hou is bored and comes to cheat you out of your mind?"
"Then...then..." Liu Xiang stammered: "Then can you let Bei Yi look at these new warships?"
"Don't even think about it." Yang Feng wanted to give her a thunderous thunder. This was so hurt that he couldn't even sit steadily. The woman was still thinking about the warship. He gritted his teeth and said, "Before your injury is not healed, you must not take a step out of the medical camp. This is a military order!"
"Oh..." Seeing Yang Feng's faintly black face, Liu Xiang naturally knew that now was not the time to challenge his boss's authority, so she could only respond softly.
Looking at Liu Xiang's aggrieved look, Yang Feng was both angry and funny. Seeing that she knew how to do her good, she thought she was doing what she had done to her. Those who didn't know thought she was doing to her.
After giving Liu Xiang a few more words, Yang Feng got up and left. Before leaving, he called Zhang Bailing to remind her that she would never allow her to leave the medical camp until Liu Xiang's injury was completely recovered, otherwise he would only ask her. With Yang Feng's advice, she would not have to step out of the medical camp until Liu Xiang's injury was intact.
The time passed in a hurry, and the calendar of this time and space also reached the eighth year of the Apocalypse, which was January 1628 AD.
Yang Feng, who spent the Spring Festival with Yan Danchen and Xu Ziqing in modern society, returned to the time and space of the Ming Dynasty, because at this time, Hai Lanzhu, Zhezhe and Da Yuer, also came to Xiamen from Tianjin Port on a sea boat.
When the three girls got off the sea boat, they saw Yang Feng standing on the dock and looking at them with a smile.
Seeing Yang Feng who had not met for more than half a year, Hai Lanzhu was the first to rush over and pounce on her husband's arms.
Holding her warm and soft body in her arms and smelling the fragrance of the faint fragrance in her nose, Yang Feng felt a sigh in his heart that this famous beauty in history actually became his wife, and this is the most wonderful thing in the world.
But now is not the time to enjoy the gentleness. Yang Feng patted Hai Lanzhu's shoulders and said softly: "Okay, get up first, it's so bad that others can see!"
"I don't..." Hai Lanzhu twisted her body, "You are my man. What's wrong with me hugging you after not seeing you for so long?"
"But there are many people watching behind me. They are all officials of my Ming Dynasty."
"What...and many officials are watching?"
Hai Lanzhu looked behind Yang Feng through the gap. No, not far away, a large group of officials were staring at them in amazement. Even if Hai Lanzhu was bold, she couldn't help but startle. She almost stood up from her husband's arms, her pretty face blushed like a big red cloth.
At this time, less than fifty meters behind Yang Feng, Xia Dayan, Tu Hongliang, Lu Guangbiao, and Liu Xiang, who had just come out of the medical camp, were also stunned. At this time, the Han people valued the difference between men and women. People with conditions had to teach girls to read books such as "Female Commandments", "Inner Training", "Female Analects of Confucius", "Female Fan Jielu", etc., and paid attention to men and women not being able to get along. This is the first time they have seen men and women openly hugging each other in broad daylight. Even if the other party is a couple, it is too rude, right?
Not only the men were stunned, but even Liu Xiang, who was a woman, blushed.
