Early the next morning, Lu Sheng, Lu Jian, Feng Jian and Gaiying, left the Tizheng Division with Lu Jian, stepped onto a fast horse, and whipped it away.

Qihai County is located on the Yellow Sea coast. The Yellow Sea coastline stretches southward and connects to Shanghai. This long coastline is where the border of China is located. Dayu's territory reaches here in the east.

The white clouds in the sky are full of saltiness in the breeze that faces you. The closer you are to the seaside, the more saltiness the land is. It is difficult to grow rice here, even if the wheat yield is not high.

Although Tongnan Prefecture and Shanghai Prefecture are both Linhai Prefecture, the development of the two is very different. The Yellow Sea is a shallow, and every time the tide rises and falls, the coastline can be pushed outward for more than ten miles.

This natural disadvantage makes it impossible for Tongnan Prefecture to become a large port at all. Without large ports, trade will naturally not be able to circulate. Therefore, even if Tongnan Prefecture is geographically close to Shanghai Prefecture, it is destined to be unable to take the route of Shanghai Prefecture.

The arable land is not fertile enough and the terrain is not superior enough, but Tongnan Prefecture has a continuous coast with rich seafood resources. Therefore, going out to sea to fish has become the main source of income for the people near the coastline.

However, since the Japanese pirates invaded the territory, no one of the people has gone into the sea for half a year. They cannot go into the sea, and they cannot support the whole family with barren land alone.

Therefore, the people's complaints became increasingly louder, and many villages came to the prefecture to ask the court to order the pirates to pacify the east coast as soon as possible.

They don’t understand the national plan of the court, and they don’t understand the whole body even more. The people only care whether they have clothes on their bodies and whether they can eat enough.

As long as you can survive, the people will not make trouble, but once the people can’t survive, the trouble will be like wildfire.

The fundamental solution to the Japanese pirates invaded the territory is to garrison troops in the coastal defense. It is precisely because of this that Qiantang is so concerned about the military discipline of the coastal defense army. After discovering the problem, he immediately wrote to the court to request rectification of military discipline.

Dayu was in peace for a hundred years, and there were no major wars outside the country. The problem of the naval defense force was definitely not an exception. However, military reforms could not be implemented overnight, and there were too many benefits that were violated.

The East China Sea Coast Defense Forces camp is located in the eastern suburbs of Qihai County. It can be guarded by Gushou Lusi Fishing Port in the south and Gushou to the near-shore fish town in the north.

As a military camp, its guards should be tight, especially under the premise that Japanese pirates often invade the territory, the coastal defense force should always enter a state of war readiness.

However, Lu Sheng and others were dressed in plain clothes and came outside the military camp in a swagger. Along the way, there were no levels, no siege, no one stepped forward to stop them, and no one came to ask questions.

It was so smooth that I came to the outside of the military camp as if I had entered a deserted state. I could also see weeds growing on the playground of the military camp, and rabbits were running happily in the grass.

"Is this a military camp?" After watching for a long time, Feng Jian couldn't help but complain.

He was born in Feiling Guard and could not imagine that the place where weeds were growing in front of him and that he could not see many living people at midnight was actually a military camp? If he changed to Feiling Guard's military camp, non-commissioned officers above the squad leader would probably have to be dealt with by military law.

"This can no longer be considered a military camp..." Lu Sheng had expected it in his heart, but he did not expect that the reality was worse than he thought, "Even the bandit nest is worse than he thought."

"Get up, get up... fuck..." A shout rang out.

"When did you go out for a fuck? I called me to get up so early?"

"Hu Zi, when did you come back last night? Why don't I know you're back?"

"Fuck it, it's only two days to go out for one hundred years. What are you fucking complaining about? Hurry up! We are still regular soldiers at least! Recently, Japanese pirates invaded the country, and the superiors were staring at it. Everyone took the laziness and restrained them. What if the court really wants to rectify military discipline, how many of you have enough brains to cut off?"

"Hahaha... Commander, just scare us. We have a marquis covering us. Who dares to touch us?"

"That's it! The one named Qiantang... didn't he die of illness? He also rectified the military discipline... The Marquis did not deal with him, so God took him away."

"Shut up! Don't talk nonsense, the Marquis said that our military discipline must be changed. Otherwise, even if Qiantang dies, Li Tang and Zhang Tang will come to cause trouble for us. So, starting today, the two exercises will be changed to three times per ten.

Hurry up, stand up and get the guys firmly. What are you doing with a reed pole? Where is your spear?"

"I don't know, I'm still there yesterday, I don't know which bastard left. It's okay, for training, you can use the reed poles as much as possible!"

Standing in the distance, looking at the loose formation in the playground, the group of four suddenly felt that their three views were under a strong impact.

Is this a military?

"Sir, I want to cut people!" Feng Jian trembled all over. The scene in front of him was an insult to the soldiers. Not to mention Feiling Guard, even the Shanghai Navy dared not ignore military laws and regulations so much, right?

"I really want to kill these wine bags. No wonder the Japanese pirates dare to invade the territory many times. If I want to change me, even if I am a pirate bandit, I will dare to go ashore and burn and kill him."

"A glimpse into the whole leopard, and it is urgent to rectify military discipline. Let's go and take a look around."

Although it is true that you see it, it is still necessary to obtain more comprehensive information from others.

Lu Sheng visited the nearby people. Unexpectedly, the group of soldiers who had already become rotten and rarely bully the people. Sometimes when they liked the people's things, they would still pay for them.

Their military discipline was loose, which was so angry in Lu Sheng's opinion that the people did not understand these, and they did not understand what military discipline was. So in the reputation of the people, the coastal defense force was actually pretty good.

After walking for more than a day, Lu Sheng and his friends came to a small town. This town is really small, with only two streets horizontally and vertically, each street is only about one mile. The distance from the previous life is two streets that cross only a few hundred meters.

A vegetable market and some small shops form the town.

There were jingling sounds one after another. In this small town, the shops that were located the most were not grocery stores or restaurants, but blacksmith shops.

Lu Sheng and his friends sat down in front of a noodle stall, and to his left was a blacksmith shop.

The noodle shop owner called Lu Sheng and others to sit down. At this moment, a bailiff with a helmet in his hand walked over and came to the door of the blacksmith shop beside him. Before he could step into the threshold, he shouted at the top of his voice.

"Iron Hammer Li, have my iron spear been built?"

"Chen Dongzi? OK OK! The room is too small, I'll take it out for you."

A sound came from the blacksmith shop, and an old man walked out of the blacksmith shop with a nine-foot-long spear, "You try it, can you still be able to do it?"

Chen Dongzi took the spear and danced whistling in an instant. The wind was like lightning, and the spear was built with pure iron, and it weighed at least fifty kilograms. It could dance with a shrill whistle, but Chen Dongzi really had two brushes.

But as soon as this praise rose, Lu Sheng felt something was wrong. As a martial arts practitioner, his eyesight was not easy. Chen Dongzi in front of him had never practiced internal skills at all, and the muscles on his arms were also loose.

If it is really a few dozen kilograms of iron spear, and it is difficult to even pick up such physical fitness, how can it be so full of vigor?

Perhaps seeing the eyes of Lu Sheng and others, Chen Dongzi danced beautifully. With a brush, the spear was beautifully held behind her.

"It's not bad, very good. How much does it cost?"

"Two taels!"

"Okay, I'll give it to you!" Chen Dongzi threw a piece of silver for the Tie Hammer Li, then twisted and slapped to sit down on the table next to Lu Sheng. The Tie Spear casually put it on the table, "Give me a bowl of beef noodles, add more meat, no coriander."

"Okay, sit down first!" A response came from the noodle stall.

Suddenly, Gai Ying's hand flew past like lightning, and the spear beside him had fallen into Gai Ying's hand. The moment he got it, Gai Ying's face changed.

"Hey! What are you doing, kid? You deserve a beating?" Chen Dongzi scolded angrily.

Gai Ying pursed her lips and put the iron spear back to its original place, "Empty, at most five or six kilograms."

As soon as Feng Jian finished speaking, his face suddenly turned dark again, "Are you a big show?"

"Hey! Do I look like a big show? Look, is this outfit a fake for big show?" Chen Dongzi seemed very proud of his identity, as if showing off his brand-name clothes.

"But your spear is a fake. Can such a spear be used to kill the enemy? Even the silver-like wax spear tip is better than you. Now that the Japanese pirates are invading the territory, the coastal defense force has the responsibility to defend the territory and defend the enemy, but you are holding the hollow weapon to defend the enemy? Is it a good thing?" Feng Jian tried hard to suppress his efforts and said in a stable voice.

"You... are officials?"

"Do you think it's like?" Lu Sheng asked with a smile.

"It's not like it, it's like a scholar. Hey hey..." Chen Dongzi pulled Lu Sheng's stool and sat down, "You scholars know how to read the books of sages, and then they criticized the government.

This is not good, that is not right. But do you know what is right and what is wrong? Just say that the Japanese pirates are invading the territory, we have the responsibility to defend the territory. This is right, it is reasonable. But when did we not drive the Japanese pirates into the sea? To be honest, my brothers are really all fakes that are not useful."

"How did you say this kind of thing with confidence?" Lu Sheng stared at Chen Dongzi in surprise, feeling that this soldier was so proud of being ashamed?

"Hahaha... You scholar's words are interesting!" Chen Dongzi patted Lu Sheng on the shoulder, "Is this a great truth to be a soldier to eat food?"

Lu Sheng frowned slightly and nodded silently, "Food is the most important thing for the people, and those who serve in the army are also humans."

"But do you know that our coastal defense force has not paid any military pay for five years. We have not received a piece of copper in the court in five years, and have not received a ounce of grain. We do not pay money or grain, but we have to work hard for the court. Why?"

"Defending the country is the mission of soldiers. Even if the court does not have military pay, you still have the responsibility of soldiers. Are you vendors? You are soldiers! Behind you are the people, parents and fellow villagers, are you allowed to bully and plunder? Are you like you?" Feng Jian finally couldn't help it and stood up with a slap on the table.

Chen Dongzi was stunned by the fear and took two steps back vigilantly. After a long time of being stunned, he slowly picked up the spear on the ground, "What's the matter with me?"

As he said that, he turned around and left with an iron spear.

"Oh, Jun Ye, your face..."

"I won't eat anymore!" As he said that, he shook and walked away towards the barracks.
