Chapter 237 Domineering (Part 2)
"He really shaved his head and became a monk?"
"Yes, the national surname."
"I understand. Since he is willing to shave his head and become a monk, let him become a monk. That guy has a temper that can't bear loneliness. I don't believe that he can really make the ancient Buddha of the Lantern Buddha live and end his life."
An order was issued for Shi Lang to recruit troops to form Zhongquan Town, but Shi Lang did not come back. After hearing the report, Zheng Chenggong was not in a hurry and put Shi Lang's matter aside.
Last year, Chen Kai rescued a large number of people from Guangzhou. These people poured into the Ming army-occupied areas in Chaozhou and Zhangzhou. According to Chen Kai, the areas must not be divided. Therefore, during this period, Zheng Chenggong recruited soldiers from them.
The first is to arrange corvee labor. Ye Yiyun of Chaozhou also creatively proposed the idea of asking people in Chaozhou who were unwilling to do corvee labor to pay and provide grain to hire Guangzhou people to do corvee labor for them.
However, there were suddenly so many people, but the area of arable land and grain production did not increase. These people also had to eat, so they could only keep consuming the stored grain. Fortunately, Chen Kai held the Zhongzuo Suo, and the inventory was not as big as in history.
That was all a gain, but Chen Kai's reward for defending the city and Hong Xu's subsequent relief effort still consumed a large amount of food reserves, which increased the pressure on the Ming army to store food.
Recently, Zheng Chenggong is thinking about where to get another batch of food. After all, only when his family has a solid foundation can he feel stable. Details have been spread out, and historical intelligence is being analyzed. Zheng Chenggong is more inclined to Yongning Acropolis and Chongwu Qianhu.
In the city, there are a lot of grain and grass reserves in these two places, which are very fat and worth taking a bite. What is needed now is to understand the surrounding situation and be prepared for any danger.
Putting aside these, the new regulations on maritime trade, the newly formulated military laws and regulations, and the training of new tactics, there were too many serious things to do. Zheng Chenggong was too lazy to deal with Shi Lang's bad temper. In fact, it was not that he couldn't relax, but Chen Cheng
Kai stayed at home in Nan'ao, studying every day to nourish himself. Otherwise, he would not even go to the Ordnance Bureau to teach his disciples Chen Yonghua, Ke Ping and Hong Lei, let alone come back to help him.
Already.
"Are there still those rumors lately?"
"Also, there are not many anymore. They are only passed down by the children of the Zheng family. In addition, there are no new jokes anymore. They are all the same ones. Most people are probably tired of them."
"Well, rumors stop with the wise. It's a pity that he turned out to be surprisingly stubborn this time."
"Guo Xing, I think we might as well let Jingcheng give it a try. In Chaozhou, in Guangzhou, and this time at the Zhongzuo Institute, what he insists on doing every time is not something that seems to have little chance of winning at first glance. The result is not
Should we let him break out? Maybe there will be an unexpected harvest this time."
Zheng Chenggong knew Hong Xu's temperament best. Among the generals under Zheng Zhilong's command, this man was actually not very outstanding in terms of martial prowess, military command, military training, land warfare, naval warfare, and business thinking.
However, his ability in doing things is outstanding. It seems that Chen Bao even gave Hong Xu a nickname that he must win every bet.
Thinking about it carefully, it seems that as Hong Xu said, there is nothing that Chen Kai can't do. In fact, it is not that Chen Kai's ability is exaggerated to the extent, but more that Chen Kai can always do it.
This is the case when a relatively special method is used to carve out a new path in a desperate situation.
"I will consider this matter carefully."
Thinking about it, it is just after taking care of business. Zheng Chenggong has been very busy recently, which can't be helped. On the contrary, Shi Lang, who was tonsured as a monk, has been very free recently, especially after completing his tonsure, changing his monk's robes, and reciting for a few days.
According to the scriptures, after knocking on wooden fish for a few days, I discovered that Zheng Chenggong seemed to have not picked up the trouble with him. He had no regrets in his heart, and his life was even more difficult to pass.
"Commander, this chicken is roasted. Do you want to try it?"
"Try something. I just finished eating one. Is there anything good to taste? Go, go, go, let me show you if you, a bastard, have regressed."
Sitting on the edge of the pillar in the courtyard of the monastery, he had his own soldiers and servants waiting on him. They were all free-spirited soldiers, and their fast food had faded away. Shi Lang didn't really want to become a monk, and he didn't bother to taboo.
These are the things that people with flesh cannot avoid drinking. Regarding this, the monks and even the abbot did not dare to say anything, so they had no choice but to let them ruin this pure place of Buddhism.
"Okay, Marshal, just take a look."
As he said that, the soldier walked to the center of the yard, drew out his sword, saluted Shi Lang, and started dancing. Before a moment, he seemed to feel that practicing martial arts dryly by himself was a bit boring, Shi Lang waved his hand, and another
The soldiers accepted the promise and left to fight with the previous captor.
"Whoever wins, this chicken will be rewarded!"
The interest was up, and the restlessness in my heart was temporarily relieved a lot. However, before the winner here was decided, a belated servant hurried over, but he lowered his head and looked guilty.
I mistakenly saw the head teacher's appearance as a primary school student.
"You mean, you have a dispute with Huang Ting's men?"
"As far as I'm concerned, master, I'm incompetent."
"Damn it, Huang Ting, that bastard, just didn't like this guy, so he just showed up at his door."
Shi Lang didn't drink the wine, but he was struggling here, eager to get up and down, while Huang Ting was practicing the Youxiang Town in full swing. It is said that Zheng Chenggong also planned to expand the size of Youxiang Town to the fourth battalion.
With more than two thousand soldiers and horses, isn't that the same as his Zuo Pioneer Town?
It can't be said that his enemy is particularly jealous when he meets him. It's just that because of his temperament, he doesn't look down on others, especially others who have a better life than him. What's more, he already has a grudge against Huang Ting. This time
As soon as he heard that Huang Ting's people were arguing with his servants, his anger went straight to Tianling Gai.
"Now that we have all the people, we must give Huang Ting a good show this time!"
Just do it, Shi Lang immediately ordered all his soldiers and servants, and left the temple in a hurry. In this pure Buddhist place, you can have some peace and quiet, but not long after, Huang Ting's Youxian Town camp was
It became a big deal.
"Damn it, you're a rip-off, you dare to touch me, you're going to hit me, I'll hit you to death!"
With a group of soldiers and servants, he came to the camp and asked to see Huang Ting. Huang Ting knew that Shi Lang had been upset recently, so he didn't dare to stand up to him, so he invited him into the camp with good talk, but he didn't say a few words.
, Shi Lang's temper got up, and he changed from asking for explanations to swearing. He scolded smoothly, and further turned into a smasher. He took the lead and handed over Huang Ting's case full of documents.
Overturned.
After having known each other for many years, Huang Ting had always accepted Shi Lang's support, and Shi Xian still had the support to suppress Zuozhen, so he did not dare to stop him, for fear that the situation would escalate, so he hurriedly hid his face and walked away, not daring to stop him in the slightest.
After a long time, the news of smashing and smashing in the tent had ended. Shi Lang and his party left the Youxiang Town camp in a domineering manner. However, this strange news soon spread throughout Youxianfeng Town and even the entire Houpu Camp.
