Chapter 170 Seeking to Live (2)

After a while, they left the camp with Wu Wenwen, and the two went directly to Yin Zhirong, another chief officer of the Guangzhou Navy. After explaining their purpose of coming, and with Wu Wenwen's support, Yin Zhirong hesitated, but still chose to go with Chen

Kai cooperates.

"Leading an army alone, replenishing ships, treating everyone equally in terms of soldiers and weapons. In addition, there will be profits from sea trade. Prefect Chen must not deceive us."

With the Zheng family's wealth, what Chen Kai can give, even Du Yong and the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi can't give, let alone this governor is a thing that will soon be lost by even the governor's office. But compared to Wu Wenwen, Yin Zhirong clearly negotiated

, but still couldn't forget to add a few words, as if Chen Kai would forget if he didn't say these words.

"Don't worry, I, Chen Kai, have always been kind to my partners."

This statement is really unconvincing. Think about it, Huang Menglin believed Chen Kai's lies when he was in charge of the car. As a result, one lost his head and the other was driven back to his hometown in Fujian. Next, Chen Kai and Zheng Cai did business.

As a result, Zheng Chenggong took out Zheng Cai's lair and even spared Zheng Lian's life. Now that I think about it, it seems that Zheng Hongkui was the one who was left behind, so he was still willing to give his precious daughter to this big bad wolf.

Otherwise, Wu Wenwen and Yin Zhirong estimated that Zheng Hongkui might also fall into Chen Kai's scheme.

"Perhaps, Magistrate Chen let his future father-in-law go because he fell in love with Duke Dingguo's daughter."

With these thoughts in their minds, Wu Wenwen and Yin Zhirong looked at each other and clearly saw that the other party had the same thoughts. However, they did not dare to say anything in front of Chen Kai, for fear of upsetting Chen Kai.

, when the time comes, they will also be included in the scheme.

"Well, Magistrate Chen, our brothers may have some misunderstandings with Uncle Yan Ping and Marshal Shi."

This is something Wu Wenwen had not thought of just now, and it is very important. Once Yin Zhirong mentioned it, Wu Wenwen's attention immediately turned around, and his eyes were fixed on Chen Kai. However, after hearing this, Chen Kai

His face immediately darkened, and then he uttered words of frost: "Don't worry about those bastards from the Shi family."

There was no word of killing, but the murderous intention was clearly displayed in front of the two of them. They couldn't help but swallow, and the two looked at each other, recalling Shi Lang's temperament when he was under Li Chengdong's command, and guessed that

Chen Kai was offended so much that he simply bowed his hands to Chen Kai and said, "The two of us will definitely take Magistrate Chen's lead as his guide."

"Very good, let's start from now on."

The deployment was launched, and the Guangzhou Navy began to mobilize according to Chen Kai's orders. The ships slowly sailed out of the dock under the command of Wu Wenwen and Yin Zhirong, and went down the Pearl River to Changzhou Island downstream of Guangzhou, where they made a temporary docking

, waiting for fate.

The mission they received was to cruise around the mouth of the Dongjiang River to guard against Qing warships. They were relatively free to not participate in rescue operations. What was more, Chen Kai simply couldn't trust them. When their ships left the port, Lin Cha mobilized

A large number of naval personnel began to take control of the more than a thousand large and small merchant ships and fishing boats at the south dock of Guangzhou City, and all of them were changed to the flag of the Zheng Group.

These Guangzhou local ships, large and small, are the real trump card in Chen Kai’s original plan!

The south wall of the old city of Guangzhou was originally guarded by the Guangzhou Zuowei. Hereditary commander Zhang Qixian and hereditary commander Yu Fengqi were Chen Kai's accomplices. They assigned Guide, Zhengnan, Wenming, and Xiaonan to the old city.

Once the four city gates were closed, not only Shang Kexi and Geng Jimao, but also Du Yonghe, Zhang Yue, and Li Jianjie could only be kept in the dark about the movements of the docks and navy.

Everything began to enter the final preparation stage. On the city wall, Chen Kai watched the large and small ships being reorganized according to size, and nodded to Zhang Qixian beside him.

The latter nodded in response and quickly sent a few close servants to ride out of Guide Gate. After a long time, Guide Gate and Xiaonan Gate were opened, and the Guangzhou Fourth Guards' subordinates entered in an orderly manner under the command of the guards officers.

Nancheng, and rushed towards the south dock of the city at the same speed.

"Organize the guardsmen to board the ship. This is what I have promised them."

After all, the garrison is a military unit. It is just walking around the city, not marching or fighting. Under the leadership of the officers of the small flags and the general flag, there is always an order, and the marching speed is not slow. But these are

Among the people, there were many who kept looking back, but no one left the group and returned to the old city.

Both father and son are in the army, and the father leaves his son to go; brothers are in the army, and the older brother leaves his younger brother to go; and the only son in the family leaves without heirs. After such a round of screening, the four guards of Guangzhou, the original more than 5,000 people, are now also

There were only three thousand people left, divided into four guards. But these people were all dead soldiers. They not only wanted to prove the names of their ancestors who had guarded this place, but also to enable them to leave.

The families fight in this dead place.

"They will remember this hatred, and sooner or later they will come back to avenge their father and brother!"

Chen Kai watched all this in silence. Soon, a new report came from the south city wall, saying that people in the streets and alleys opposite the city gate had begun to rush towards the city gate in an organized manner. Zhang Qixian and Yu Fengqi

The second general asked Chen Kai if he would open the door to let people pass.

"Open the door. Nancheng covers a small area and has few people. It's not a waste of time."

The family members of the guards passed by Nancheng. Although they were in good order, they also alarmed the people of Nancheng who were organizing. The family members of the guards entered the dock first and began to slowly board the docked Ming army ships.

"Marquis Lin, send these military households directly to Hong Kong Island."

"Please rest assured, Chen Canjun, I will deliver them safely and prevent the blood of the four guards of Guangzhou from being shed in vain."

The Zheng Group's true naval fleet and ship types can basically be divided into eight types: large ships, water stern ships, plow ships, sand ships, bird-tail ships, black-tail ships, gun ships and quick sentry ships.

.

Among them, the big boats and water rafts are the largest, generally 5.3 meters wide, 21 to 24 meters high, with a draft of about 4 meters. The hulls are wrapped with iron leaves, equipped with artillery, and can carry 500 soldiers; plow boats and sand boats are slightly smaller.

Small, with a draft of about 2.6 meters, it can accommodate one hundred soldiers. These four kinds of ships are equipped with long-range artillery and have strong endurance and attack power. The last four kinds of ships are very small, and most of them can only accommodate five

Sixty soldiers are generally used for offshore operations. Among them, the quick sentry is the smallest, but also the most mobile, and is mostly used for communication and reconnaissance.

The hundreds of ships under Lin Cha's command are no different from other naval forces. They all have these eight types of ships. Among them, there are three watercrafts, which serve as Lin Cha's flagship and the ships of his two lieutenants, and the remaining

Most of them were plow boats and sand boats, which could better carry out the mission, but there were also many small boats, especially quick whistles. When Chen Kai persuaded Yin Zhirong, several boats quickly sailed out on the Pearl River.

, heading towards the Mazu Temple in Nansha - where the fleets of Zhou Rui and Hong Xu were waiting for news about Chen Kai.

The military dependents of the Guards Boarded Lin Cha's ships one after another. The twenty to thirty thousand military dependents not only filled up Lin Cha's fleet, but also some large Fuzhou and Guangzhou ships on the south pier of Guangzhou.

They occupy.

The guard soldiers in the middle and late Ming Dynasty have always been criticized, but they are always better organized than ordinary people. Gradually, the people in the south of the city finally began to organize themselves out of the few buildings south of the new city.

At the city gate, the boarding work was completely completed.
