Chapter 25 Expedition

"This time we finally managed to get through the danger. Next time we need to take care of unexpected situations like this."

I talked with Zheng Chenggong for a long time, and by the time he left the Tiger Festival Hall, he was already three months old. After washing up, I lay on the bed, recalling the events of the past month and a half, but I couldn't help but sigh.

The certificate of investment was handed in, but this time it was indeed a bit risky. He had calculated it at the Tiger Festival Hall that day and left a very small margin. If there was any mistake, or his business management problems The experience was wrong, and this time it was doomed. However, if you want to take real power when you are new here, you have to take some risks. Fortunately, Zheng Chenggong is about to send troops this time, and it is the first time he has sent troops. The level of attention from the top to the bottom is extraordinary. Otherwise, it would not be so easy to get through such a dangerous situation.

"Fortunately, I passed the test. Next, I have to work harder."

The task was completed and he felt relaxed. Chen Kai slept very soundly that night, sleeping until dawn without even a dream. However, he did not expect that this would be the last time he lived in this side room. One night.

"Chen Canjun, these four people are sent by the master of the house to serve you in your daily life. In addition, the master of the house has arranged another courtyard for you."

The four servants, one male servant and one maid, are a couple, and the other two are a boy and a maid, who are all responsible for Chen Kai's daily life. The male and female servants are rough servants. At first glance, they look like They are all honest people; the servant is smart and can be used as a follower; the maid, on the other hand, looks a bit like Xiaojiabiyu at a closer look. She can serve personally and can probably be used to warm the bed, but she is also thoughtful in her thinking.

"Young man has met the master."

"Get up."

The private servants who joined the Chen family were of a higher standard than the public servants who were responsible for sweeping before, and they were more reliable to use.

Zheng Chenggong arranged another place to live, so Chen Kai had to ask them to bring their own things. He packed up the clothes Chen Kai put in the cabinet and the books and papers on the desk. He took the broken straw sandal and followed the housekeeper Zheng San to the general manager. Walk to another courtyard of the town house.

"The head of the family has said that this courtyard is not worthy of Chen Canjun's talents, but the current national situation is difficult, so we have to make do with it for the time being. I hope Chen Canjun doesn't mind."

"Having a roof to cover one's head is considered a luxury. If one doesn't have fine clothes and fine food, why should one not fight against the enemy?"

The courtyard is not small, at least it is larger than the one he lived in before. Being big is one thing, with carved galleries, painted buildings, flowers and grass, and a unique scenery. But more importantly, although the previous small courtyard is no longer He lived with someone else, but only that side room temporarily belonged to him. But now, the whole yard belongs to him, which is very different.

"It's a pity that the property rights don't belong to me. It would be great if my name was written on the house book."

After seeing the layout of the small courtyard, Chen Kai couldn't help but think about it. Although the house is for temporary residence, if you think about it carefully, the property rights of this general town house belong to the Ming Empire. For the successive deputy commanders of the Nan'ao Army and Zheng Chenggong For a general to be summoned, isn't it the same as a temporary stay?

Thinking of this, Chen Kai immediately regained his balance. After accepting two pieces of silk and satin, several sets of clothes and a reward of twenty taels of silver, Zheng San left and left. Chen Kai took a look at the reward and asked the maid to pack it away. And he walked around the main room and study room.

In fact, from the first time he arrived at the small courtyard, he could already get a glimpse of it. The furnishings, decoration, layout, and furniture in the house were antique, very exquisite and luxurious, and it was more than one level better than the side house he had lived in for more than a month before.

, even the bookshelves in the study room are already full of books, including many Confucian classics, and many books that Chen Kai mentioned to Zheng Chenggong yesterday. There are so many books that Chen Kai may not have been able to read before Zheng Chenggong returned to his teacher.

Finished.

This is class. The difference in treatment is indeed not as obvious as the grade, but it is still clearly displayed in front of Chen Kai.

"Except for the main room and study room, you can discuss on your own how to allocate and use the other rooms in the courtyard."

"You little man, please obey."

"Pack up the things I brought here. In addition, this straw sandal is a token of my benefactor. Don't lose it." After instructing these new servants, Chen Kai took it with him.

The little boy like a little tail rushes to the weapons workshop to go on duty as always.

The army will set off for an expedition the day after tomorrow, and some weapons may be sent for repair. Chen Kai is also ready to prepare. It is just for follow-up production, and expansion and expansion are inevitable. Chen Kai has already made arrangements with Zheng Chenggong, but he still has

It is necessary to wait until the army is dispatched before preparations can begin.

Compared with a month and a half ago, there were more wives of Wang Fugui and three other supervisors in the weapons workshop, but there were two missing couples, You Er and his wife. You Er had already been beheaded in public, and his head was always hanging on the gate of Nan'ao City, but

At this time, he was put down. After being burned, he was put together with the ashes and brought back to his hometown in Fujian by You Hong's mother and son who were about to board the sea trade ship.

After a month of hard labor, Hong Xu paid a fine and now sent the mother and son back to their hometown. However, Hong Xu has not seen the family since the incident. He has already made his attitude clear, and is only paying for this

The affection of distant relatives.

Boarding the ship, holding the urn jar and You Er's memorial tablet, mother and son depended on each other and were about to walk to the cabin. Just looking back, the port was in order, Nan'ao City remained majestic, and there was smoke and dust in the direction of the weapons workshop.

He rose into the sky, but he couldn't help but feel a little resentful.

"Son, remember, it's the guy named Chen Kai who ruined our family!"

………………

It is the 18th day of the sixth lunar month in the third year of Longwu, the year of Dinghai, the month of Yisi, and the day of Wuyin. Today is the day when the army goes out for battle. Zheng Chenggong paid homage to Emperor Longwu's tablet and beat drums to gather the generals in the Tiger Festival Hall.

, the stars gathered together, and the cold light of the armor was even more dazzling.

"The army is about to set off. Now, assign the task of commanding the troops."

Zheng Chenggong shouted loudly, and the generals couldn't help but sit up straight. Even Chen Kai, who was sitting at the bottom, felt the majesty of the military. Even though he knew that this expedition had nothing to do with him, he held his breath.

Breathe and listen to Zheng Chenggong's general orders.

"The chief of the town is Hong Zheng, the loyal uncle Chen Hui."

"The end is here!"

When he first arrived, Chen Kai, led by Zheng Chenggong, went to the Left and Right Pioneer Town for inspection. He had met Hong Zheng in the main town hall and greeted him politely, but Chen Hui, on the other hand, had not paid attention to him so far, but he left him alone

In the past, the relationship between the two parties was probably like this for the time being.

One was wearing iron armor and the other was wearing a python robe. The two generals stood up in response, their armor leaves rustling. After a loud response, Zheng Chenggong issued an order to them.

"You two, lead the left and Pioneer Town on the right."

"The general will obey his orders."

"Zhong Kuangbo Zhang Jin, the general commander of Yang Cai."

"The end is here!"

"You two, marry Ding Zhen."

"The general will obey his orders."

Qinding Town is the most elite unit under Zheng Chenggong. A town is commanded by two military generals, one in charge and the other in command. Chen Kai is sitting in the tail seat closest to the gate, and one of the people sitting in the front seats is the same as Chen Kai.

The general wearing a splendid python robe and a general sitting not far in front of him stood up and loudly responded to Zheng Chenggong's order.

"The main town is Guotai, the main town is Yukuan."

"The end is here!"

"You two, lead the left and protect the town on the right."

"The general will obey his orders."

"Zhongding Bolin Xishan."

"The end will be here."

"You lead Louchuan Town and escort the army northward."

Zhongding Bolin Xishan, this person is a naval general under Zheng Zhilong. He participated in the Liaoluo Bay naval battle that year and performed well. In fact, it is not just Lin Xishan, Zhongyong who is sitting in the front at the moment

Hou Chenbao, as well as Yongsheng Bo Zheng Cai, who sent the invitation this time, all participated in the great sea battle that determined the fate of maritime trade along the southeast coast of China. However, now the Zheng Group has fallen apart and belongs to different forces.

middle.

"The general will obey his orders."

"Ke Chenshu, Yang Chao, Du Hui."

"The end is here!"

"Ke Chenshu, Yang Chao is joining the army, and Du Hui is the general assistant to assist me in commanding the army."

Chen Kai heard Ke Chenmei mention that this was not the first time that Ke Chenshu served as Zheng Chenggong's military counselor. When Zheng Chenggong was ordered to supervise the imperial camp and take charge of the defense of the northern Fujian pass, Ke Chenshu was already under his command. But this time, it was

It was probably the last time he joined the army as a soldier.

"The general will obey his orders."

"Gentlemen, our goal in this battle is to cooperate with Yong Shengbo to seize Haicheng County, and we must do our best."

"The last general will obey the orders of the country!"

After assigning the task of dispatching troops, Zheng Chenggong said to Chen Bao and Hong Xu who were sitting at the top: "Nana'ao is the fundamental place of our army. When the army goes out, Zhongyong Hou is responsible for defending the place and training new soldiers. Zhong Zhenbo is responsible for presiding over it.

In general affairs, we should work together to ensure that the local area is not lost."

"The general will obey his orders."

The two received the order, and the interior and exterior arrangements were completed. Zheng Chenggong glanced at Chen Kai, who was sitting at the door of the meeting hall, and wanted to give some instructions, but after a second thought, he gave up the idea. Then he stood up and shouted loudly.
Chapter completed!
