I am the king of the dead

Chapter 923 The Daming Navy is Suppressing Bandits

Tang Xing couldn't bear it and said: "Li Chengwu, whose real name is Li Da, is 42 years old and his ancestral home is Meizhou. His father Li Laoqi went from Dianbai Port to Jiugang in the third year of Yongle and defected to Liang Daoming. These foundations, after the death of Li Laoqi, the family property was inherited by Li Chengwu, Li Chengwu is a capable person, and managed this Li family to the second largest in Old Port."

"He also has a younger brother, Li Chengwen, who is 24 years old. He has had soft feet since he was a child and couldn't stand up. Li Chengwu has been taking care of his younger brother for so many years. However, Li Chengwu always pushes his younger brother to show up at weddings and funerals. , never broke once."

"And this younger brother is suave and suave, and he wrote a good poem, which is rare in this old port."

Li Chengwu's older brother is like a father. Not long after Li Chengwen was born, he suffered from a stroke in children, that is, soft foot plague. He couldn't stand up when he was young. It is even more difficult.

Observing the three words of filial piety is easier said than done. Before Tang Xing became a relative of the emperor, he had always been a villain in the market. He had seen too many brothers who had quarreled with each other for three melons and two dates, and even fought violently.

"It's a pity to kill." Liu Yongcheng also said with some embarrassment. Li Chengwu needs to be smart, knowledgeable, and friendly. This kind of person can really make things happen.

Tang Xing hesitated for a moment and said: "This Li Chengwu cares about this younger brother very much. If this younger brother is sent to Tianjin Wei, Li Chengwu can use it. If Li Chengwu refuses, then he is unwilling to be used by Daming, so he should kill him."

Liu Yongcheng agreed with Tang Xing's opinion and said: "Look at Li Chengwu's own choice. Our family will truthfully report this matter to the Holy Majesty. If His Majesty blames the crime, you and I are both guilty."

Politics has always been a ruthless thing. Tang Xing is not the free and unrestrained Tang Xing at this moment, but Commander Tang, who is commanded by all the members of the Ming Dynasty. As the commander-in-chief of the official ships sailing south, he makes decisions based on the interests of Daming , not personal appreciation, Liu Yongcheng agrees.

Tang Xing and Liu Yongcheng admired Li Chengwu very much. The greatest respect for a person is not to kill the other party when they are their own or even an enemy, so as to avoid future troubles.

After Li Chengwu heard that Chen Shouyan had gone to the barracks to surrender, he pushed his younger brother to the Daming barracks in the afternoon.

Li Chengwen was indeed taken care of very well, he had a good appearance, a modest gentleman, he sat on the swivel chair, and said to Li Chengwu in a low voice: "Brother, I have heard the businessmen and merchants talking about it for more than ten years, and the emperor of Ming Dynasty is not the rumor On the contrary, no matter it is the King of Ryukyu, King Annan, or the Khan of Tatar, they live very well in Tianjin Wei and have not been criticized at all. When I get there, there will be no shortage of people take care of."

Angels are noble people, you can't wait for the angels to speak, you have to take the initiative yourself, so that everyone can save face.

Li Chengwu said with a painful expression: "Chengwen, brother, I'm sorry, my father left in a hurry, I was too busy, I didn't take good care of you, and made you sick, now, I want to send you to Daming, brother is useless. "

Li Chengwu felt very guilty about his younger brother. He always thought that his younger brother suffered from a stroke because he didn't take good care of him when he was young.

On the contrary, Li Chengwen comforted his elder brother and said: "Daming is a good place. You have been to Daming three times, and I have never been there. Every time you go and come back, you always tell me how Daming is. I have long wanted to see it." , Daming is the kingdom of heaven, brother sent me to Daming to enjoy the blessings, why is brother useless?"

"I hope it is as you said." Li Chengwu held the hand of the swivel chair, obviously exerting a little force.

But Li Chengwen said with a smile: "Everything is fate, and I can't help it at all. Brother, I have seen it all. Why do you keep embarrassing yourself? I can't stand up. I am still the second son of the Li family, and my life is more than ordinary. The family is much better, if it is placed in an ordinary family, it would have been abandoned long ago."

"It's here." Li Chengwen signaled Li Chengwu to stop the swivel chair, and then said in a low voice, "I'm not in Old Port. When you're working, brother, remember that we are from Ming Dynasty."

"As long as you remember this, our Li family will be invincible. No one can do anything to our Li family. As long as the Ming Dynasty lasts, our Li family will be able to prosper for as long. Daming is our Li family's biggest backer."

"This time the Ming Dynasty went to the West again, which is different from the Sanbao eunuch who went to the West during the Yongle period. This time, once the opening to the sea is opened, there is no possibility of stopping."

Li Chengwu asked suspiciously: "Why?"

Li Congwen said distressedly: "I'm not in Daming, so I don't know the inside story. From what I know, Daming's southward voyage to the West was the result of many compromises. This time, how many merchant ships went south with the official ships. During the Yongle Xuande period, there were merchants. The ship accompanied? The emperor gave up some benefits, but also exchanged some benefits. This is the result after the battle, and the result is recognized by everyone."

"If you want to stop doing Western affairs, it will involve too many interests. As far as our little old port is concerned, most carnivores don't like change. Change is variable, and variable is uncertainty. If it does not change, it will not be possible for generations to come. Maintaining the status quo is what most meat eaters want to see, and it is in the best interest of us meat eaters.”

"If you send my soft-footed plague to ordinary people, you will die of illness within a month or so. Once you get used to the extravagant life, you will no longer be able to suffer. This is the reason why it is easy to go from frugality to luxury, but difficult to go from luxury to frugality." .”

"It's the same with Daming, the sea trade is very profitable, he is used to delicacies from mountains and seas, and let Daming eat bran inside and out. Daming is not a sick cat, he is used to eating meat, and he would not be happy to let him drink soup."

After hearing this, Li Chengwu kept nodding his head and said, "I've made a note of Wen's thoughtfulness, we are from Daming."

The head of the Li family is indeed Li Chengwu, but Li Chengwen is Li Chengwu's military advisor. Over the years, it was Li Chengwen who advised Li Chengwu behind his back, including Tou Ming, which was the best solution Li Chengwen analyzed for Li Chengwu.

And Li Chengwen's suggestion to Li Chengwu is that in the future, as long as you think that you are a member of the Ming Dynasty, and make decisions based on this, you can ensure that everything will be safe.

Li Chengwen stood up with the support of his two family members, and was carried into the Chinese military tent. Compared with Li Chengwen's suave appearance, he looked extraordinarily embarrassed when he was carried away like this.

"Grassmen Li Chengwu and Li Chengwen pay homage to the Great Angel, Your Majesty, long live, long live, long live." Li Chengwu knelt on the ground, prostrating three times and five times, while Li Chengwen bowed on the ground. He couldn't stand up, let alone kneel, so he seemed Even more embarrassed.

"Your Majesty's decree, no courtesy." Liu Yongcheng announced the decree in frustration, and then sat down with Tang Xing. Although His Majesty was not there, this etiquette would not be unscrupulous just because the Emperor Tiangao was far away and no one was looking after him.

Li Chengwu didn't get up, but knelt on the ground and continued: "My stupid brother admires the culture and education of Daming, and the grassroots dare to ask the angel to show mercy and send my stupid brother to study in Daming."

Liu Yongcheng and Tang Xing glanced at each other, the two brothers Li Chengwu are very good!
At least one star and a half stronger than that Chen Shouyan.

"Commander, go and carry the swivel chair in, it's cold on the ground, get up quickly." Tang Xing's smile hasn't stopped since the two brothers entered the camp of the Chinese army. When Li Chengwu spoke, Tang Xing's The smile is stronger.

After Li Laoqi's death, the Li family became more and more prosperous. The two brothers of the Li family were not stupid. Li Chengwu saved a lot of trouble by opening his mouth, and made a good start for the old port that was about to usher in the rule of Ming Dynasty.

Everything is difficult at the beginning, but this is a good start, and everyone is happy.

Tang Xing said with a smile to Li Chengwu who got up: "Your brother is an outstanding talent. I heard that his talent and learning are also well-known in this old port. The Li family is so many heroes, it really deserves its reputation."

Li Chengwu hurriedly bowed his head and said: "Wen Wu is the first and Wu is the second. In Jiugang and Nanyang, the grassroots dare to say that there is no one who is better than my brother in terms of talent and learning."

"Thanks to the angel's praise, the grassroots are terrified." Li Chengwen hurriedly thanked Tang Xing for his compliment.

The military depends on talent, and reading also requires talent. Obviously Li Chengwen is very talented in reading.

Li Chengwu's attitude was very humble, but his words were full of pride. It was a foregone conclusion for Li Congwen to go to Ming Dynasty, so the more talented Li Congwen was, the more Ming would value him, and life would be much easier.

Tang Xing was very surprised. This question and answer revealed a lot of details. As the saying goes, when adults talk, children don't interrupt. He didn't feel any dissatisfaction, and he didn't feel that there was anything wrong. He felt that it was a matter of course. It can be seen that the relationship between Li Chengwen and Li Chengwu is an equal relationship.

Liu Yongcheng, Tang Xing were talking to others, which little Huangmen dared to interrupt indiscriminately?
The information collected at night is not very complete for this younger brother. It is naturally difficult to find out such delicate matters as whether Li has any brothers.

Tang Xing said with a smile: "Oh? I am full of literati and scholars in Ming Dynasty. This is said in Nanyang, but it can never be said in Ming Dynasty. This scholar is the most difficult thing to deal with."

"Daming is a place where culture and education flourished, that's why I went to study." Seeing that his brother was silent, Li Chengwen had no choice but to reply.

Li Chengwu was a little nervous. The artillery roared a few days ago. After he came to the camp and saw the nobleman, he was a little restless, and his butt was only half a stool.

The younger brother who is neither humble nor overbearing, the elder brother who is a little nervous and slow to react, Tang Xing and Liu Yongcheng are two smart people, but they can see a little bit tricky. The role played by Li Congwen in the Li family is obviously very important.

Then Tang Xing and Liu Yongcheng had an in-depth exchange of views with the two brothers on the matter of re-establishing the Old Port Proclamation Department, and the unresolved Proclamation Department has finally confirmed the candidate.

When Liu Yongcheng and Tang Xing set off from the Shipping Department of Songjiang City, they brought a large number of blank edicts with seals. This was also the custom when Zheng He sailed to the West during the Yongle period. It was decided by the command of the admiral, the minister and Fandu, even if there is a pigeon road, it is still inconvenient to communicate.

The emperor is in the capital, and he doesn't know the details. Ge Lu can't understand it in a few words, and it is taboo for the emperor to make decisions without knowing the situation. Shaobao will also be of great importance in admonishing the emperor.

For example, Zhao Gou, Song Gaozong, ten years in Shaoxing, Song Gaozong did not understand the frontline battle situation, and within a day, twelve gold medals were sent to the frontline, so that Yue Fei's class could return to the court. Kaifeng Mansion had to retreat. Zhao Gou knew that the front line was winning the battle, and immediately regretted it. He ordered Yue Fei to continue to attack, but the opportunity was fleeting, and the Song Army had already retreated.

And Li Chengwu received the canonized imperial edict, and was appointed as the acting town of the Xuanwei Department of Jiugang, and all the tokens such as the printed ribbon fire plaque, etc., had to wait for the Ming court to hear the news and the emperor Zhu to approve before sending them to Jiugang. At that time, Li Chengwu Only then will he become a real consolation envoy from Daizhen.

After Li Chengwu took office as Daizhen, he became even busier.

When Li Chengwu first took office, he was very busy. Li Chengwen, who hadn't left for Ming Dynasty, had been helping his brother with official duties.

Li Chengwen picked up a book and said: "The stalls at the port of Songsang Port, the Han people's stalls in the back move forward, and the ones in the front don't move. The Ming army is coming, and people are panicked. There are rumors that this stall will be changed and given over to Liu Tian and those merchants, I don’t think it’s necessary.”

"Compared to their identities as abandoned overseas, we old Hong Kong Han people can be regarded as more than half of Ming people, which is better than their half of Ming people."

"Yeah." Li Chengwu thought for a while, and said with a smile: "That's true, we are the old Hong Kong Propaganda Department of the Ming Dynasty, and they are just expatriates. What is the Ming army busy with? The two angels didn't lecture, which made me feel confused. It’s down, and I don’t know if it’s right or wrong.”

Li Chengwen said with a complex expression: "The Daming Navy is suppressing bandits."

"The two angels are quite dissatisfied with the fact that there are pirates all over the old port and even the Straits of Malacca. My old port propaganda department has only yamen servants and no soldiers. Even if I want to suppress the bandits, it is also powerless. The two angels led the soldiers to suppress the bandits. Put down the pirates."

"According to Tang Guozhang's words, this bandit is right in front of our eyes, and it will be uncomfortable if we don't suppress it."

Li Chengwu frowned slightly and said: "Then, do we need to pay for the expenses for the military trip? How much will it cost? Let's prepare in advance."

Li Chengwen said uncertainly, "I don't know. The two angels didn't say anything. May I ask?"

Li Chengwen sent someone to inquire about the expenses of helping the army, but the answer he got was an angel's reprimand. The angel emphasized: The Daming Navy is suppressing bandits on the border of Daming!The Department of Propaganda and Consolation of the Old Port, pay taxes and taxes on time.

When the Ming army came, there would be a clear sky. This was originally the content of Li Chengwu's script. At first, Li Chengwu thought that everyone tacitly fooled the people. It's just a play.

Brothers Li Chengwu and Li Chengwen never expected that Daming is coming for real!

This blue sky, Daming really wants to do it!

The pirates who have been entrenched in the Strait of Malacca for more than 20 years have once again ushered in their natural enemy - the Daming Navy.

Clearing the needle path is the imperial order of Liu Yongcheng and Tang Xing, and suppressing bandits is the most important thing in clearing the needle path.

This means that Li Chengwu and Li Chengwen have been overseas for a long time, and they don't understand the style of the Ming army. In these major events during the Jingtai period, the Ming army more or less wanted to suppress bandits, which is an extremely important military operation for political victory.

It is a great irony that the land of Shandong, which is full of thieves, is the place where Yan Shenggong and the Kong family of Qufu are located.
