Chapter 1291 · Deliberately humiliating Taisun
For several days, Xiao Heng was in a hurry to discuss the next coastal defense arrangement with the local officials and revenge against the Japanese pirates.
On the ninth day, another Japanese pirate invaded Taizhou, killing more than 600 people.
This is a blatant humiliation to the imperial court and imperial envoys!
They probably knew that Xiao Heng had come to Zhejiang, so they were so unscrupulous in order to provoke him!
Xiao Heng has never been so angry before, but it is a pity that the Japanese pirates come out day and night, and the situation here is different from Yunnan. Yunnan is a mountainous area, but it is a coastal area. Regularly, they can easily get rid of Da Zhou’s officers and soldiers.
The whole of Zhejiang was panicked for a while, and even life was affected by the troubles of these Japanese pirates.
The fishermen are even more afraid to go out to sea. The sea has been very chaotic recently. If you are not careful, you may lose your life.
Pang Qingping was busy putting out fires everywhere, and he was in a daze.
Sun Yongning had good news to bring over – Qi Tianyou also came to Hangzhou. He was returning to the governor’s mansion at this time. He found a group of Japanese pirates at the station and wiped them all out. Three hundred people defeated more than a thousand Japanese pirates. And no damage yet.
There is finally exciting news. Xiao Heng also wanted to learn about the sea, so he hurried to the Governor’s Mansion.
At the same time, Su Rong finally came back from Ningbo.
As soon as he came back, he went straight to Su Yao’s annex, fearing that Su Yao would be worried, he came to ensure his safety.
Su Yao was finally relieved. She had been worried before, but now that she saw Su Rong well, she was relieved: “I thought you didn’t receive my letter, thank God, you finally came back.”
She felt that Su Rong had changed a lot recently. She hadn’t seen each other for a while. The decadence that Su Rong had experienced after being designed by Mr. Wang disappeared. He has become a lot sharper now, and he blurted out the swearing words in the army. He has been scolding the group of Japanese pirates and pirates, especially when Shen Hai is mentioned, he is even more swearing.
She sighed and asked softly, “Brother, are you still worrying about your sister-in-law?”
Su Rong was stunned, and only then did he realize what Su Yao was worried about. He was a little ridiculous, and shook his head very determinedly: “No, really not. Yay, you haven’t been to the seaside, I don’t know if the fishermen have been there. How hard it is to live, I don’t know how many of our people are treated as cattle and horses by those beasts. They have no humanity. The people who were kidnapped were made to kneel on the ground and crawl away. Some babies, they disliked getting in the way and directly stabbed them with knives. die”
He was indignant, and his emotions became very excited for a while. After a pause, he realized that what he said was too radical, and he was afraid that it would scare Su Yao, so he was silent for a moment and continued: “I just started When I was there, I just thought that I couldn’t continue to be bored in the capital, otherwise, people would be abolished, but after I came, I couldn’t care about the love of those children. I don’t know if you can I don’t understand what I mean, but there are many, many people who can’t even save their lives. Their homes may be invaded by pirates or Japanese pirates all the time, but they are still trying to live. I am a general, and my battlefield is here! ”
He’s not the kind of person who gets stuck with feelings.
Su invites a little shocked, but at the same time she feels a sense of pride, yes, her brother has always been such a person, self-improvement, never bowing his head.
He has broken his leg for more than ten years, was dismissed from his relatives, humiliated and looked down upon by everyone, but he still insists on his own way. He has always been a strong man.
She couldn’t help laughing: “Yes, I worry too much, eldest brother is not the kind of person who is bound by the love of children.”
Since Wang Banyan and Su Rong can see it, maybe there is really no fate between them, and they can only go here in this life.
She stopped talking about this, and instead asked Su Rong: “Is the recruitment going well?”
“It’s all bullshit.” Su Rong couldn’t help but have a headache: “This is something that can’t be helped. They did this before, just to deal with the court. Every time they go to the Japanese pirates, they turn around and run away. I have already Tried ordering severe punishment, but with little success. Now it seems that there is only one way to go, and that is to select a new batch of soldiers, who should be younger, so that, or give some time, there are still But it’s not something that can be accomplished overnight.”
He sighed.
The two chatted for a while, and unconsciously, the sky was already showing fish belly white, and Su Yao felt a little distressed for him: “Big brother hasn’t slept all night, so running back and forth, let’s go and rest for a while, and other things will be discussed later.”
Su Rong shook his head: “I’ll wait for His Highness to come back and see how it goes.”
He was very worried about the local people and wanted to know what the above was saying now.
Waited until the sun climbed up the roof before Xiao Heng finally came back. He obviously didn’t sleep all night. Seeing Su Rong was there, he nodded at Su Rong: “Big brother here?”
Su invited up and saw that he didn’t look as angry as the day before, and asked, “Is Qi Tianyou any good idea?”
In recent days, both Sun Yongning and Xiao Heng have been talking about this general, and Su Yao was also impressed by this person, always feeling that he should have a way to deal with those **** Japanese pirates.
Xiao Heng finally showed a smile on his face, and said with a sigh: “He is a brave and resourceful person, very smart, and the situation at sea is also judged extremely accurately. The soldiers he led have never been in Japanese pirates. It is extremely rare to suffer a loss from below, which shows that he is really talented.”
With this person, I can finally relieve a little pressure. Before, everyone was exhausted by these Japanese pirates.
Su Rong also nodded: “If you say this Qi Tianyou, I have heard of him, he is a capable man, and I heard that he is very military-minded, and those who follow him are willing to charge with him, and it is unprecedented for us here. “His Royal Highness, since he’s here, I don’t know what he thinks of the Japanese plague and our soldiers?”
Speaking of this matter, Xiao Heng also had a smile on his face, he slowly let out a breath, took a cup of tea handed over by Su Ying, and said in a relaxed tone: “He will be here soon, We’ll know when we hear it together.”
After he finished speaking, he asked Su Rong: “You went to chase the Japanese pirates in person, how do you feel?”
“I’ve never fought a naval battle.” Su Rong was a little weak: “It feels completely different from when I was in Yunnan. I caught up with them, and they were separated by a reef, so I couldn’t catch up, so I could only watch them run away.”
