Brocade clothing as the country

Chapter 815
The big pole that Sun Dahai said is a slang word, it usually refers to the gang of thieves on the road, and the big pole on the sea in the private port near Jinzhou, which naturally refers to pirates.

Most of the merchants gathered in Tianjin Wei came from the sea. Wang Tong was deeply wary of pirates from the beginning. Later, Wang Tong's own sea power was gradually established, and Tianjin Wei's sea area gradually became safer. Later, another major force in the sea, Sha Dacheng, also came to Tianjin Wei, making the sea security more and more stable.

However, all of this was managed by Wang Tong. Wang Tong's presence is as stable as Mount Tai. Without Wang Tong, it is a mass of loose sand, and Tianjin Wei is just a big piece of fat. The wolves and tigers on the sea want to eat it.

Wang Tong went to Guihua City to fight to the death with the Ida tribe, and the news was cut off. So many people in the court thought Wang Tong was defeated, not to mention the merchants and other people on the Tianjin Wei side. Although they have confidence, they are unavoidable. There are also those who want to take risks and take a chance, coveting is inevitable.

Tianjin Wei has its own warships, and it also has eyes and ears on the sea. In the inner sea surrounded by Beizhili, Shandong and Liaozhen, it is difficult to hide any troubles.

Moreover, the size of the fleet of the forces that dare to attack Tianjin Wei is not something that can be hidden just because they are hidden.

A fleet of this size is traveling on the sea, and the approximate time can be estimated. Wang Tong said with a smile:

"In Tianjinwei, Shandong, Liaozhen, and Korea, I am afraid that there is no such large-scale fleet. It should be that when the news is cut off, the news will be sent to the north, and the team will gather in the south, and then go north. Knowing that the official returned triumphantly and the army returned to the capital, I gave up helplessly."

Sun Dahai shook his head and said:
"Calculating the time, they started planning around the first month of the month, and they didn't think that if the Lord's side is triumphant, wouldn't it be a waste of time for them to go this far."

"With the prosperity and prosperity of Tianjin Wei, it's worth the gamble. Do you think they ran for nothing? Seeing that things don't work out, they go to the Japanese to sell goods, and then sell them in Tianjin Wei. It's more or less profitable, and it's more likely that they are already Take the goods to the north, grab them if you can, and sell them if you can't."

Wang Tong said with a smile, but Sun Dahai's expression was quite solemn. After all, Zhang Shiqiang led his people to Guihua City, and Cai Nan was also reporting to the capital. Right now, Wang Tong's department is in charge of the overall situation in Tianjin Wei. It is a disaster to have such a danger.

"My lord, aren't the people with such power at sea just Shen Wang and Sha Dacheng? Shen Wang lives here in Tianjin Wei, and Sha Dacheng's son is still serving in the Lord's army. How could they?"

"Shen Wang's living in Tianjin has nothing to do with him sending a letter. Sha Dacheng is not a son. The news is cut off. He just treats his son as dead."

Wang Tong said something casually, then said with a smile:

"It may not be these two people. There are many forces in the sea. The two of them are just heroes. We have so many businessmen in Tianjin Wei over the years. The wealth here is famous all over the world. There must be many people who are tempted. You too Don't worry, even without the help of Sha Dacheng and the others, the water power in our hands is enough to keep Tianjin Wei safe."

Hearing what Wang Tong said, Sun Dahai sat down with a smile, but Wang Tong also wondered, is there any force in the sea who dares to attack Tianjin Wei?There are almost thousands of pirates who died in Tianjin Wei. This deterrence should be enough. Who could it be?

After finishing this business, Sun Dahai also sat down and asked with a smile:

"To tell you the truth, my lord, I am here this time to ask about your lord's marriage. People in Tianjin Wei are very concerned about it. I want to ask if there is anything I can do to help?"

"What can I do for you to help me get married?"

When asked by Wang Tong, everyone laughed, Sun Dahai also laughed for a while, and said:
"My lord's marriage is a major event in Tianjin Wei. As soon as supplies are used, maids and servants, everyone has discussed this. If you want to prepare for your lord perfectly, it must be the best.

"Your Majesty once said that he would worry about my marriage, and he is asking someone to inquire in the palace. We will wait for the reply from over there."

***************
Wang Tong chatted easily with Sun Dahai and the others. In another part of the mansion, Wang Tong's personal guards were also practicing chatting there.

They all fought bloody battles on the grasslands. After returning to the capital, the peace and leisure that they didn't feel much at ordinary times seemed extremely valuable, but after all, they were young people, and these feelings were quickly forgotten, but They all have a common understanding, that is, although exercising the body and exercising martial arts is boring, it is the capital of survival on the battlefield. Among Wang Tong's cadres, there are many children from the rich family of the general family, and they have been arrogant since childhood. , Many people feel that their skills are not bad, and many boring exercises are unnecessary.

After returning from the battlefield, even though Wang Tong gave them a holiday, each of them practiced diligently and did not dare to have the slightest ambiguity.

Han Gang already had the identity of a hundred households, and it was basically decided to make meritorious service this time to be a vice-thousand household. In addition, his younger sister was going to marry Wang Tong, so even though he came late, he was vaguely the leader of the crowd.

In addition to these identities, Han Gang's combat skills are also proficient. Compared with a group of teenagers who have never been on the battlefield, Han Gang has fought against the Tartars with real knives and guns on the border of Ji Town. The battlefield naturally made him different from others, and also made others admire him.

At this time, all the guards were fiddling with swords. After returning to the capital, Tan Dahu and Tan Erhu's father, Tan Jiang, stayed in Guihua City. Li Xiaobiao's family was in the countryside, and Qi Wu was sent to Guangdong on the way. Needless to say, after returning to Beijing, firstly the younger siblings were overjoyed, then the chief supervisor Han Taiping was also in tears, and he was too worried about his own grandchildren going to the battlefield, so he was relieved after seeing it.

For Bao Erxiao's side, Wang Tong also gave him a vacation, and asked him to go to Tianjin Wei to meet his father and brother. Needless to say, he was emotional, but the situation in Sha Dongning was different. Sha Dacheng's business is booming now. He didn't stay on land for a few days at all, and took a boat to and from Tianjinwei and Liaozhen all day long.

After receiving Sha Dongning's report that the past was safe, he sent people to deliver gifts, and then went to do business on his own. After hearing this, Wang Tong also expressed a few words of emotion.

After all, he is a native of the sea, he is used to seeing life and death, and knowing that his child has returned safely, he is not so affectionate. The things Sha Dacheng sent here are nothing more than dried seafood, and there are also mountain treasures from the northeast. After arriving, he gave Wang Tong a large portion as usual, and shared the rest with his friends, happily.

After all, Sha Dacheng is a father, so he doesn't do much to get close, but he has to do a lot. Knowing that his son's identity is different from other people, he often sends things over for Sha Dongning to share with his companions. , but delivered something again today.

Compared with the food, Wang Tong's personal guards are more interested in the things delivered today.

"This Japanese sword is really well made!"

Han Gang took out one and waved it in his hand. As a warrior, he naturally understood the quality of this weapon. Sha Dongning said:
"Don't touch those two. I'm going to give them to the big brother Han. Maybe you don't know that the Japanese sword is also a big item in maritime trade. The people on the sea and the rich on land in Fujian, Zhejiang and Guangdong all pay attention to using this."

Tan Erhu shook the Japanese sword in his hand, held it up and slashed forward, and said with a smile:

"My father taught me how to use the Japanese sword, but in our army, this Japanese sword is really not very useful. It is fine for private fighting, but it is probably useless on the battlefield."

"Second Brother Tan can understand that even on the Japanese side, the spears are the first to fight in the army. This Japanese sword is only for daily self-defense."

Sha Dongning opened his mouth to answer, Tan Dahu was not very interested in the Japanese sword, he took a look at the two swords, one long and one short, then inserted them back and put them down, and asked with a smile on the side:

"I heard from my father and several uncles that the Japanese like to brag. They often boast about nothing, but they boast a lot. If it adds up to less than a thousand people, it is called a big war. If more than ten people are beheaded, it is called a great victory. What kind of city and fortress? It's the same as the stronghold in our country side."

Everyone laughed, and Sha Dongning also laughed, but he added:

"When my younger brother was in Hirado, I knew something about it. It was almost like this 50 years ago, but it has been different in the past ten years. The princes of the Wa Kingdom attacked and annexed each other. Now there are only a dozen of the largest princes in the Wa Kingdom. Fights involving tens of thousands of people are also common, and sometimes over 10 people."

The courtyard was a bit quiet for a while, the Japanese pirates harmed the southeast, but the soldiers and civilians of the Ming Dynasty always believed that there were few Japanese pirates, and they could be judged by a little preparation by the Ming Dynasty. The things that Qi Jiguang and Yu Dayou did proved this point, what Tan Dahu said There are also many rumors in China.

Sha Dongning grew up in the country of Wa, and what he said was what he saw and heard. Everyone has followed Wang Tong for a long time, and they understand the general trend of the world, and they also have the awareness to fight for the Ming Dynasty. They think a lot. Now that there is such a change, everyone has heard about the ferocity of the Japanese pirates. If they are allowed to unite, it will definitely be a disaster.

"I remember hearing the Japanese teacher at home say that first having a hero like Oda Nobunaga and then having a hero like Toyotomi Hideyoshi is also a blessing from God to the Japanese country."

Li Xiaobiao and Sha Dongning once fought and suffered a loss, but the relationship between the two is good. Li Xiaobiao is not very interested in this Japanese sword, so he asked in a low voice:

"Dongning, is there any dried venison left? It's so delicious."

"You know what to eat, you kid. There are still those in Liao Town. The kind you want to eat is not very easy to buy recently. The Jurchens are fighting hard, and many of the goods over there can't come."
