Silver Overlord Chapter 423: I am a red scarf
The waves of the sea are rolling, and the dry and cold northwest wind blowing from the land makes the winter sea violent. The blue water of the past turned dark at this time. The endless waves are unpredictable. 'S power, throwing everything up on the sea and pressing it ...
Amidst the turbulent waves, a fleet of twelve warships is on the sea, lined up in two rows, against the wind, and stubbornly using the zigzag trend is moving towards the landing site. On November 9, this fleet completed its last cruise this winter and was on its way back to Yinggang.
In this fleet, the giant ship that led the way was the flagship black dragon ship of the Southeastern Navy of the Han Dynasty. It was nearly three stories high, with a 20-foot-long hull and a bow. The sharp position of the dragon's head with iron collision angles makes this black giant ship sailing at sea full of awe-inspiring majesty.
In the southeast waters of the Han Empire, as soon as this giant ship appeared, pirates of all sizes would have to sniff the wind across a hundred miles, and they would never dare to twist their beards, because everyone knows this black dragon Who is the owner of the ship, as long as this giant ship appears, then the person who trembles the hearts of countless pirates in the southeast of the Han Dynasty must be on this giant ship, that person, among all the pirates in this endless sea , There is a nickname-Black Dragon King!
The Black Dragon King is Zheng Huaian!
At this moment, Zheng Huaian stood on the bow of the Black Dragon Ship, carrying his hands, looking at the outline of the vast sea and the already existing coastline in front of him, a blood-red cloak flying fiercely behind him.
Zheng Huaian's white temples are not white, not tall and burly, but a little fat after middle-aged man's blessing. If it weren't for his undaunted momentum and sharp eyes like an eagle, At first glance, such a person is more like a shopkeeper of a restaurant and an inn than an admiral of a high-ranking southeastern naval master of the Han Dynasty.
The giant ship rides through the wind and waves, and there are some bumps. Zheng Huaian, who is standing on the bow of the ship, is as if he has roots under his feet and is motionless.
Looking at the gradually clear bay on the distant sea level, Zheng Huaian with a worried face sighed quietly.
"Adult, it's been more than two months. Is there no news from the military department ..." A forty-year-old sailor officer with a heroic face somehow came quietly behind Zheng Huai'an and heard Zheng Huai'an With that helpless sigh, the sailor officer asked.
"This time is the same as last time ..." Zheng Huaian did not turn his head, said calmly, with a trace of helplessness in his tone.
After hearing Zheng Huai’an ’s answer, the young sailor officer immediately showed indignation on his face, “When will the masters of the Ministry of Warfare understand that this vast sea is not the extravagant land of the Han Empire, in this sea Thousands of islands, spices, pearls, gold and silver, all kinds of wealth and treasures are inexhaustible. There are hundreds of thousands of overseas countries, countless, large and small. If my lord does not deal with thousands of islands in the South China Sea early, strengthen me Southeast naval forces, the future of this maritime event will surely change from profit to damage for the Han Empire. A few months ago, the Che Ni Nation was destroyed. I heard people say that those Haiyis who destroyed the Che Ni Nation were unprecedented. Seeing the family, red hair and green eyes, happy black robe, bloodthirsty and killing greed, these Haiyi fleets were heard to be brought to the Cha Ni country by the storm. Warm hospitality and brought them to Wangdu, but I did n’t expect that within a few days, more than 20,000 people in the Wangdi of the entire Che Ni Kingdom were killed by those Haiyis. After they were robbed, they were burned. According to witnesses, those Haiyis The ship used jib sails. The hull model has never been seen before. It is very flexible and not small in size at sea. There are dozens of them, which can never be made by ordinary pirates and small countries. I am afraid ... … "
The young sailor officer stopped talking, but even if he did n’t say anything later, Zheng Huaian could understand that it ’s not necessarily a good thing for a wolf to eat enough meat, because in the future, this wolf will It is possible to recruit a group of wolves.
"I can't decide what happened in the Imperial City!" Zheng Huaian turned his head, looking at the young sailor officer, and said simply, "This time, go back and you will pass on the news. , As long as those who can provide the news and whereabouts of the red hair Haiyi, I have a reward, all the navy, can capture those red hair Haiyi ships, all officers and soldiers will be upgraded to three levels, 12,000 silver rewards, all pirates , No matter who it is, as long as the red-haired Haiyi ship is brought in, I will give him the island where the car mud king is located ... "
"Yes!"
Zheng Huaian looked at the gloomy sky to the north of the direction of the fleet, and sighed secretly in his heart. The imperial court did not pay attention to the sailors. This led to the flooding of pirates and bandits. Thousand islands in the South China Sea guarded the gateway to the southeast coast of the Han Empire. Strategic locations, more abundant resources, and countless treasures, but these are not in the eyes of the court lords. For those in the court, the master only needs to guard the coast of the Han Empire. Pirates are making waves. In the last ten years, there have been more and more pirates on the southeast coast of the empire. Several pirates have joined together. There has been some climate, but in the southeast navy, there has been no new ship added for ten years ...
The destruction of Che Niguo is a loud alarm bell. The sea is endless. It is too big. No one knows what is on the other side of the sea. Unknown, often accompanied by awe ...
......
Two hours later, before dark, the fleet finally returned to the prosperous Haizhou port. Zheng Huaian had just got off the ship, and a servant quickly came to him, whispering in his ear. Sentence, Zheng Huaian slightly stunned, then commanded, "Then take them to the side hall of the Admiral's Mansion, I will see them there!"
After two quarters of an hour, Zheng Huaian, a servant of wind and dust, was in the side hall of the Admiral's House of the Navy, and met two guests who claimed to be from Huizhou.
The two guests were in their fifties and one in their thirties, and they were capable people at a glance, especially those in their fifties, but when they were seen from afar, Zheng Huaian felt the man ’s Cultivation, has advanced to the realm of martial arts.
"Huizhou Guangsheng Dart Board Zhou Yuanlong and Chen Zhiwu, the dart master, have met the Admiral!"
The two men entered the partial hall. The dart head named Zhou Yuanlong stared at Zheng Huaian carefully for a few moments. After confirming Zheng Huaian's identity, they gave Zheng Huaian a gift together.
"Huizhou is not far from Haizhou's thousands of mountains and rivers. The road is not near. I don't know what happened when Zhou Dutou traveled to Haizhou to see me?" After asking the two to sit down, Zheng Huaian asked quietly.
“It ’s like this. We received a dart from Guangsheng Dart Board more than a month ago. The employer entrusted us to send a thing to the admiral in person before the 15th of this month!” Zhou Dantou said. He had taken a thing from his arms and placed it on the table next to him. A servant next to Zheng Huai'an walked over and took that thing and put it in front of Zheng Huai'an.
Zheng Huaian glanced at that thing. It was a brass metal cylinder. The whole cylinder was covered with a layer of wax, and there were several flower stamps on the wax. This kind of thing is more common in the military. When transmitting urgent and important military information, this method is often used. Of course, in the private sector, if you want to deliver some important letters, some people will do the same. The metal cylinder can ensure that the letters to be delivered are in the process of delivery. The layer of wax that seals the cylinder and the flower stamp on the wax can ensure that the letters in the cylinder will not be opened by others on the road, because if it is opened, the flower stamp will be broken. It can be seen at a glance.
The sealing wax and flower stamp on the outside of this metal cylinder are very complete, so no one should open it on the road.
Zheng Huaian did n’t open the cylinder immediately, but asked, “I do n’t know who asked you to send me this thing!”
"The person holding the darts did not leave a name. He only said that he was an old friend of Lord Admiral. As long as Lord Admiral read the letter inside, who is he by nature?"
"Oh!" Zheng Huaian is even more curious. He thought for a while, he seems to have no relatives and friends in Huizhou, "I don't know what that person looks like?"
"The man was dark, in his twenties, with two moustache, ordinary face, and accent with a little tone from Dijing's side!"
"Oh, that person can let Zhou Dartou send this thing personally, how much dart silver did he sell?"
"According to the regulations, we generally do not disclose the price of employers’ darts, but since it ’s an admiral ’s question, I ’ll tell you the truth. This thing is sent, there must not be a little mistake on the road, this price is escorted to such a thing, we naturally will not refuse the dart board! "
Zheng Huaian raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard that a person had sent him a letter for twenty-two thousand silver.
"Okay, I know, there are two laborers, the two are working hard all the time, please go down and have a rest!"
"The dart has been delivered, then we will leave!" Zhou Dartou stood up and arched his hand at Zheng Huaian.
Zheng Huaian glanced at the attendant next to him, and then the attendant gave away the dart head and the dart master of Guangsheng Dart Bureau.
After looking at the metal cylinder for a moment, Zheng Huaian pondered for a while, and he was sent a pair of deerskin gloves. After putting on the deerskin gloves, he broke the sealing wax and flower stamp outside the cylinder. , Open the cylinder carefully.
The cylinder is indeed a letterhead ...
The letterhead is headless and tailless, with only a series of dates and events on it —
—— November 16, 13 of the Han Dynasty, the original Han Dynasty rite of worship, Gong Zicheng died in Kuizhou, His Majesty gave the posthumous title "Wu Xin" ......
Just seeing the first line of the letter, Zheng Huaian's eyes burst into a gleam, because seven days later, it was November 16th, but there is still ...
—— November 18, 2013, the Han Empire, Suyang County, Xuzhou earthquake, the north tower of Suyang City collapsed during the earthquake, 100,000 people were affected in Suyang County, more than 3,000 houses were collapsed, and the court set aside silver One hundred thousand two disaster relief.
—— On the evening of November 26, 2013, Yuanping, Han Dynasty, Qinshui County, Haizhou had comets passing by, and the comet fragments fell to the southeast of Qinshui County. The fire went out in the snow three days later.
—— On December 4, 13 of the Han Dynasty, the coup d’ état of Yushan, the southern state of the Han Empire, the king of Yushan was killed, and the prince of Yushan fled to Annan County. >
—— December 9, 2013, the Han Dynasty, the white lotus religion was in Rengzhou ...
Looking at what happened on this letterhead and talking about what will happen in the future of the Han Empire, Zheng Huaian was at a loss for a while, and then he felt a little ridiculous and grotesque, because he could n’t really understand why anyone would take it. Twenty-two thousand silver was used to make such a joke for myself. At that time, I looked at it. When I saw the back, the words on the letterhead made Zheng Huaian stunned ...
—— In the 14th year of the Yuan Dynasty of the Han Dynasty, in February 14th, the “Empty Rates Case” broke out in the Southeastern Navy of the Han Dynasty. Prime Minister Lin Qingtian ordered a thorough investigation and the rise of the prison. Bribery, his son-in-law and his son colluded with pirates, Zheng Huaian's family was confiscated, 47 people from his family were imprisoned, and more than 30 other naval officers were involved.
—— In March 14 of the Great Han Empire, due to a fire in the cell, more than 30 generals of Zheng Huaian and the southeastern navy were burned to death in Qingjiang Prison, no fluke ...
—— In April 14 of the Han Dynasty, the former Vice Admiral Zeng Jiuming was appointed by Lin Qingtian as the new Admiral of the Southeast Navy, and the former Southeast Admiral ’s House was sentenced to Li Zhaofeng ’s promotion to the county guard of Xuanping County, Haizhou. ......
Seeing the last, unconsciously, Zheng Huaian's hands shivered slightly.
Zheng Huai'an felt cold on his back, and there was a cold sweat on his back when a gust of wind blew into the hall.
There is only one sentence in the last place on the letterhead.
—— Do n’t ask who I am, please call me a red scarf!
At this moment, Zheng Huai'an's ear sounded a close servant's voice.
"Adult ~ IndoMTL.com ~ Sentencing Master Li to see outside the hall ..."
Zheng Huai'an calmed his mind, received the letterhead on his hand, then took off his deerskin gloves, put it in the drawer under the table, took a deep breath, and then told the attendant, "Let Master Li come in Right ... "
A few seconds later, a handsome-looking man walked in with a few rolls, and smiled at the sight of Zheng Huaian, "I heard that the adult is here, and I came here, these documents, I still need the signature of an adult ... "
Zheng Huaian also smiled, with a relaxed look, "Zhaofeng, you do n’t want me to rest. As soon as I come back, you will bring such a bunch of documents, please let me put it first, I will slowly read ! "
"Adult as a naval admiral, naturally takes care of everything!" The man smiled and put a bunch of rolls in front of Zheng Huaian, and then seemed to inadvertently ask, "Yes, I heard that there were two A dartsman wants to see an adult, and I do n’t know where I can help ... "
Zheng Huaian's eyes flicked and waved his hand casually, saying lightly, "It's nothing. It's just that a friend I met had a little embarrassment in practice, so it was inconvenient for me to come over, so the Tossing Bureau gave me Bring a letter to ask for advice, and have an appointment to meet ... "
