Horse on the World

Chapter 668

The seaport of Taiwan Island is already crowded with people, countless residents of Taiwan Island gather here, but they are no longer fighting with their opponents, but are divided into two groups. The easy-to-carry gold and silver were soft and soft, and they embarked on a journey to find their roots, while the other group came to send them off to their former monarch, Zhou Ruizong.

Although the last emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty did not bring many benefits to the people of Taiwan Island, at the last moment, he had the courage to abandon his throne in order to save the lives of hundreds of thousands of residents of Taiwan Island. , is enough to make these people grateful and remember him for a lifetime.

On the road leading to the harbor, the people spontaneously used loess to pad the road, and stood respectfully on both sides of the road, watching the monarch who had faded away from the king's clothes and was only wearing ordinary clothes walking slowly. On the left and on the right are two senior officials in Dingzhou, one civil and one military, Yan Nanfei and Deng Peng.Behind them were Wei Gang and other senior officials from Taiwan who had to follow Zhou Ruizong to Dingzhou.Soldiers of the Dingzhou Marine Corps, dressed in bright armor and holding swords and spears, stand on both sides.On the surface of the sea, the thousand-material battleship of Qiyuan, which was going to carry Zhou Ruizong to the distant sea, was covered with red and colorful colors. Above, the sailors stood neatly on both sides of the ship's side.

The Dingzhou navy gave Zhou Ruizong a very high courtesy.This is not only the respect of the generals of the Dingzhou navy for an emperor who has the courage to abandon the throne to protect his people, it also implies other meanings.Hundreds of years ago, the orthodox emperor of the mainland surrendered to Li Qing. The political meaning contained in it is self-evident. When the news spreads on the mainland, it is believed to cause a political earthquake on the mainland again.Giving Zhou Ruizong extremely high etiquette also lifted Li Qing to a higher position.

Yan Nanfei is full of ambition, this time his contribution is a certainty, but I'm afraid Li Qing didn't expect that he gave Yan Nanfei full authority to handle the affairs of Taiwan Island, but Yan Nanfei took advantage of this, and without his knowledge, , and found him a wife.No matter how furious Li Qing might be in private, the agreement signed by Yan Nanfei as his plenipotentiary representative and the other party undoubtedly has legal significance.This made Li Qing just swallow his teeth. If he vetoed the contents of this agreement, the adherents of the Great Zhou Dynasty might doubt the validity of other contents, which would cause unnecessary suspicion and turmoil.

It was precisely because of this that Yan Nanfei took a fancy to this, so he confidently decided to find another mistress for Dingzhou.

Boarding the battleship, Zhou Ruizong looked back and saw that all the aborigines on Taiwan Island knelt down and sent their monarch off this land.With tears in his eyes, Zhou Ruizong slowly knelt down on the bow of the boat: "Forgive the ancestors and the ancestors, and the unfilial descendants did not keep the Da Zhou's orthodoxy. However, I can set foot on the land of the mainland again in my lifetime and see the Qin family with my own eyes. Destruction is enough to comfort the spirits of our ancestors in heaven."

Zhou Ruizong respectfully knelt down three times and kowtowed nine times, bidding farewell to the land where he was born and raised him. After standing up, he walked towards the cabin without looking back. From today on, Zhou Ruizong no longer exists, and only Zhou Shouxin exists in the world It's gone.

The military flags were unfurled on Taiwan Island, and the horns were sounded on the warships stretching for more than ten miles at the same time. After the three horns, the drums sounded, and the farewell music was also played on the land. Amidst the music, the warships lifted anchor , slowly sailing towards the Qiyuan in the distance.

The Qiyuan anchored off the next day, and the naval ships that accompanied Deng Peng also returned together. Counting from the day they arrived, it has been exactly ten days to today.

"I don't know what's going on in Weizhou now!" Zheng Zhiyuan said, looking at the Qiyuan that was gradually disappearing from his field of vision.It is very simple to start a war. Any small reason can trigger a protracted war, and sometimes even no reason is needed, but it is not an easy task to end the war.

"It's likely that the battle between Dingzhou and the South will end in the negotiation between Dingzhou and the South!" Zhong Jing said calmly. "Neither side has the will to really fight."

"Lv Fengchun has suffered such a sad loss, I'm afraid he won't let it go!" Zheng Zhiqiang said on the side.

Tang Hu sneered: "He is a dog in the water now, and even the shelter is given by others. King Ning doesn't want to fight anymore. He doesn't even have the qualifications to be a death squad. What can he do? If he wants to cause trouble, hehe, Tian Feng will be happy Can't sleep, just cuddling grass and beating rabbits!"

What he said made everyone laugh.Zheng Zhiyuan waved his hand and said: "Okay, okay, the generals are worried about things on the mainland, so we don't want to eat salted eggs here and be calm. Our place is also a mess. Next, we have to do something specific." Arrangements have been made. Let's go back to the cabin and discuss in detail."

After returning to the cabin to sit down, Zheng Zhiyuan glanced at the crowd and said: "Taiwan Island has now clearly become the base of our expeditionary force, so we must leave manpower here. One is to build the seaport here. The harbor here is too small to hold our warships, and the defense here is too poor. This is a very head-scratching thing. Not only does it require manpower, but also a lot of money. The money left by Commander Deng is not much. We have to find it ourselves. Therefore, our expeditionary force cannot stay here for a long time, and must set out as soon as possible. Then, I would like to ask, who wants to stay here and manage Taiwan Island?"

Everyone lowered their heads, almost none of the generals were willing to stay behind, and Wei Zhihua, who had just entered the ranks of the expeditionary army, looked curiously at this group of generals who were enemies not long ago. He knew that, No one will keep him.

Zheng Zhiyuan was also in a difficult situation. He had many people who could fight, but he really didn't have the manpower to do these things. His eyes swept over everyone's faces, and he couldn't make up his mind for a while.

After hesitating for a while, Zheng Zhiyuan saw Tang Hu casually biting his nails, grinding his teeth from time to time, his eyes suddenly lit up, "General Tang Hu!"

ah!Tang Hu raised his head, "Old Zheng, what's the matter?"

"I think you will stay on Taiwan Island to preside over the affairs here?" Zheng Zhiyuan said with a smile.

"What did you say?" Tang Hu stared at Zheng Zhiyuan with one eye, looking at him in surprise.

Zheng Zhiyuan coughed dryly twice, "I say it's up to you, Lord Tiger, to stay and preside over the affairs here!"

Tang Hu stared blankly at Zheng Zhiyuan for a long while. After seeing Zheng Zhiyuan's heart a little hairy, Tang Hu suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed loudly. Everyone was a little puzzled by the laugh. Tang Hu stood up, stepped on the stool with one foot, He smiled and pointed at Zheng Zhiyuan and said, "Old Zheng, Lao Zheng, do you really dare to think that I am the material for this? You really dare to keep me here, hahaha, after half a year, your expedition When Jun rushed back to resupply, he found a mess here, wow haha, you are going to stare, when the time comes, I am afraid the commander will not blame me, he will only scold you for being ignorant , playing the piano indiscriminately!" Tang Hu laughed wildly. "Well, when the time comes, you, General Fuyuan, are about to surrender, hahaha!"

Wei Zhihua didn't quite understand Tang Hu's special status in the Dingzhou Army. Seeing that Tang Hu didn't respect the general at all, he couldn't help but feel very strange. Why is such an army with no distinction between upper and lower ranks so powerful? ?His head turned back and forth across their faces like a rattle.

Zheng Zhiyuan grinned and was not angry at all, thinking that of course I know what kind of guy you are, but who told you to have a thoughtful, wise and powerful wife?With you, the god of death, in charge here, and Zhong Jing making the overall plan and being responsible for the implementation, how can this island go into chaos!
"General Tiger, don't be ignorant of good people! I'm doing this for your own good!" Zheng Zhiyuan smiled narrowly, but at first glance, he looked like a ghost.

"I can't see it!" Tang Hu shook his head fiercely, "You clearly know that I just want to fight, and there are not even any bandits on this island. You want me to suffer to death!"

"You have to bear with it!" Zheng Zhiyuan said: "General Hu, you have to think about it clearly. General Zhong Jing is a healthy person now. We will go here, not to mention anything else, just because of the turbulent sea. It’s not fun for a person with a body, and besides, General Zhong Jing’s body is quite weak now, if something goes wrong, don’t you regret it?”

"Bah, bah, bah!" Tang Hu said angrily, "I can't spit out ivory from a dog's mouth!"

"So, General Tiger, you will accompany General Zhong here to raise your health. After half a year and October, after the cub is born, you, the tiger, will come out of the mountain again. Wouldn't it be the best of both worlds? In our battle, is it a battle?" Can you finish playing in a year and a half?" Zheng Zhiyuan laughed, and it was obvious that Tang Hu was already hesitant.

Tang Hu turned his head, looked at Zhong Jing, who was beside him with a red face, and muttered a few words in a low voice, to the effect that you were not pregnant sooner or later, but you are pregnant at this time, you really don't know how to choose the time!

Zhong Jing's answer was to poke lightly under the table with his hand, but he didn't know that he hit Tang Hu's numb tendon, and Tang Hu immediately fell half short, hissing cold air from his mouth.

Although Tang Hu wanted to go to war, when he thought that Zhong Jing was pregnant with his little tiger, he became wilted again. No matter what happened, the sea was indeed very windy and rough. When he first got on the boat, he vomited In a daze, my strong man looks like this, the little tiger is more fragile in her mother's womb, after thinking for a long time, he finally dared not take the risk, so he had to swallow his breath.

Seeing that Tang Hu was silent any more, Zheng Zhiyuan cupped his fists at Zhong Jing, "General Zhong, thank you!" Although Zhong Jing's status is rather embarrassing now, Li Qing did not order to deprive Zhong Jing of his military post. He is still the general of Dingzhou, and now Zheng Zhiyuan is short of manpower, so he doesn't care about so many.

Zhong Jing smiled, Zheng Zhiyuan couldn't hide his thoughts from her, nodded and said: "Don't worry, General Zheng, after half a year, I will give you a naval base no worse than Changsheng Island."
