Chapter 230 Chapter 230 Boarding the Ship
On the wide field in front of the Tianjin Wei Wharf, Yang Sichang, the Minister of the Ministry of War, dressed in a red official robe, white face and long beard, was marching for the officers and soldiers who were about to board the ship under the order of Zhu Youjian; two thousand Shandong officers and soldiers lined up Several neat phalanxes stood upright, Wu Qun and several Qian Zongs knelt on the ground and waited for the minister of the Ministry of War to speak.
"This official is ordered to go to Taiwan for you! This trip to the south, the enemy you will encounter will come from thousands of miles away and invade our Huangming land! He wants to use Taiwan Island as his home , The wolf ambition to further covet our Huangming land is clearly revealed! Now that the Holy Majesty has sent thousands of warriors to conquer this Tiaoliang, you must all fight bravely to be the first, so as not to let their horses be returned! To comfort the Holy Majesty's far-sighted heart! Let's drink! "
Following Yang Sichang's majestic and resonant voice, several military servants walked quickly carrying trays lined with red cloth, and on each tray was a large pottery bowl filled with half a bowl of rice wine.
Wu Qun, who was kneeling to the north, and several Qian Zongs picked up the wine bowls from the tray one after another, Gu Dudu drank it all and threw the wine bowls on the ground. After a few crisp sounds, the wine bowls shattered all over the floor.
This move contains the meaning that it is better to destroy the jade than to destroy it. This is what the officials of the Ministry of War specially told Wu Qun and others in advance.
"Humbleness will surely live up to the holy prestige! I would rather give up this useless body to destroy the red barbarians! In order to show the prestige of my emperor!"
Wu Qun kowtowed heavily to the north and then raised his head and shouted loudly.
This is also because the officials of the Ministry of War are afraid that these rough men will say "what the fuck, Hongyi, I will kill you!" and other rude words, which will make the polite Yang Sichang unhappy, so they specially teach Wu Qun how to respond .
"Get up! Board the ship!"
Yang Sichang nodded slightly in satisfaction and gave the order.
"Respectfully send this soldier back!"
After Wu Qun and the others got up, they cupped their fists and bowed in salute. Yang Sichang turned around and walked towards the carriage not far away with official steps.Except for a few low-level officials of the Ministry of War who were in charge of coordinating, other officials and entourages who had followed Yang Sichang left one after another. Wu Qun and others did not get up straight until Yang Sichang's carriage started.
Several large ships of [-] materials were docked by the pier, and the long gangway had already been set up. The firearms, weapons, cotton armor, and [-] horses of the officers and soldiers were all loaded on board yesterday. Can.
"Every two teams below one thousand, take one boat! Board the boat!"
Wu Qun ordered loudly, several Qian Zongs returned to their own teams and began to direct the soldiers to line up in front of the pedals.
There were more than [-] large ships transported by the Zheng family this time, each of which could carry more than [-] people; but considering the need to provide enough space for the officers and soldiers, the officials of the Ministry of War specially arranged more than ten ships to transport As for the officers and soldiers, the officials of the Ministry of War did not care whether the remaining dozen or so ships could accommodate the thousands of Shanxi civilians who came later.
Whether it's the sea that can't be seen at a glance, or the huge ship tens of feet long and more than ten feet high, for all Shandong officers and soldiers, they are both shocked and fearful of the unknown.
The sailors of Zheng's fleet stood on both sides of the steps on the pier to prevent anyone from falling into the sea.
Huge-backed Shandong men timidly stepped on the two-foot-wide pedals, and then moved towards the ship step by step in fear; the pedals trembled slightly with the shaking of the ship, and the soldiers who were moving on them looked nervous , the body shrank involuntarily.
"Don't look at your feet! Look up! Look forward! Tread lightly!"
An official of the Ministry of War saw that the soldiers boarded the ship too slowly, and he couldn't help shouting loudly as he was eager to return to Beijing.
For those who step on the pedals to board the boat for the first time, the slower they walk, the easier it is to feel flustered and frightened.
Because the Ministry of War wanted to arrange matters related to this expedition, it sent personnel to contact the Zheng family's fleet a few days in advance. The remaining officials had boarded and disembarked many times, so they already had experience.
From Chenshi to noon, after three hours passed, all [-] officers and soldiers boarded the ship. Several officials from the Ministry of War were relieved to see the sailors put away the pedals. They turned around and talked and laughed. Leave the pier and return to the capital.
Wu Qun rested his hands on the side of the boat, looking out at the boundless sea, with Chen Dashuan and Sun Rengui standing beside him, one on the left and one on the right.
"General, the drought in Shaanxi and Henan is as severe as ours in Shandong, but there is so much water here. Why don't you think the imperial court can build aqueducts to divert the sea water to water the land?"
With the heaving and shaking of the ship, Chen Dashuan, who was lying on the side of the ship, looked at the vast and boundless sea and sighed.
"You bastard! Sea water is salty water, and watering the ground can kill the crops! Damn it! I usually tell you to read and read, but you don't listen to me! You don't even know that sea water is salty! Don't talk to me from now on!" I know! I can't afford to lose that person!"
Wu Qun felt annoyed in his chest and abdomen, and cursed angrily.
Chen Dashuan was brave in battle, and he was honest and obedient, but he was very tired of reading and writing.
Zhu Youjian once ordered the whole army to launch an literacy campaign at an appropriate time. Huang Degong hired a few old boys from Shan County with a lot of money to come to the army to teach the generals above the general to read every three days. He went to study in Huang Degong's big tent, but this Chen Dashuan, after participating in a study, used various excuses to avoid class every time, Huang Degong beat him with ten army sticks in a fit of anger.
But this guy is still stubborn, saying that he will feel dizzy and frightened as soon as he sees the words. It may be a taboo, fearing that there will be retribution after learning the words, etc. In desperation, Huang Degong can only let him go .
"Hey! That's a pity! So much water can't irrigate the ground! Don't you think so, grandson?"
Chen Dashuan said with a shameless smile.
Before Sun Rengui could reply, Wu Qun stretched his neck, opened his mouth, and sprayed the food he had just eaten into the sea water.
Wu Shenjiang got seasick.
"General! What's wrong with you! Where's the doctor? Come quickly! Old Sun! Hurry up and carry the general in!"
Following Chen Dashuan's yelling, Sun Rengui hurriedly carried Wu Qun into the cabin together with him, but before the two could do anything, Wu Qun vomited again, and his body became limp.
Scenes similar to Wu Qunshicai's were repeated one after another on more than a dozen ships. Most of the two thousand soldiers were seasick, and filth was vomited everywhere.The sailors of Zheng's fleet frowned, muttering Hokkien dialect that others didn't understand, while using pumps to pump water from the sea to wash the deck and other places.
Chen Dashuan was one of the few people who didn't get seasick, and under Wu Qun's weak advice, he was running around on the boat to check the situation of the soldiers.
After seeing the sailors using a pump to pump water, this guy immediately found a new gadget, grabbed a pair of pumps from a sailor, and started playing, laughing happily while pumping water. People are dumbfounded.
Returning to Jiangdong Commoner's question, the Dutch occupied Taiwan to provide a foothold for trade with Nanyang and Japan. Leaving aside the territorial issue, the Netherlands and Ming have conflicts of interest, and it doesn't matter whether it is right or wrong.
