In the winter of the second year of Yongli, clouds were covered with clouds, and a long-storm was about to come.

Shi Lang stood on the head of Chengxiang County and looked at the coalition forces gradually retreating in the distance. Without reminding, he also guessed that it was Zheng Chenggong who led his troops to help. Because it was not only those Chaozhou local gangsters who retreated, but even Hao Shangjiu's troops were reluctant to go west along Meixi.

From Changning County to today, after half a month of fighting and half a month of trapped beasts, this Fujian army lost too many soldiers on the way back to their hometown. Among them, there are Shi Lang's cousin Shi Zhaolian and Shi Zhaoxu. They chased and chased each other without mentioning it. During the past half month of siege, the coalition forces also rushed to the city several times, and they suffered many casualties.

From more than 5,000 people at the time of departure to only more than 4,000 people left, which seems not many, but for a lonely army, every casualty cannot be supplemented.

"Hao Shangjiu, wait. I will settle the accounts with you sooner or later!"

After looking into the distance for a long time, resentment accumulated in my chest, until the fiery red in the south became more dazzling. Under the urging of Huang Ting, Hong Xishan, Su Mao and others, Shi Lang got off the city and followed everyone out of the city to welcome him.

"Zun Hou, Hua Ming, I haven't seen each other for many years, and my style remains the same."

In the Longwu Dynasty, Shi Lang and Huang Ting were general officers, while Hong Xishan was just a deputy general. Even after surrendering to the Qing Dynasty, Hong Xishan was still a deputy general without any change. In contrast, Shi Lang was nominally under the jurisdiction of Zheng Chenggong, and he had already known Zheng Chenggong for a long time with Shi Fu's relationship. Huang Ting was also familiar with Zheng Chenggong. Once Zheng Chenggong met the two, he would greet him enthusiastically. Huang Ting was fine with this, but Shi Lang hesitated for a moment before he fell to the ground with everyone.

"The sin will have seen the surname of the country."

"All the brothers of all sins are their own brothers. Get up quickly, get up quickly, let's go into the city to talk."

As he said that, Zheng Chenggong helped them up one by one, and then he pulled the two of them into the city with a bold pride, not minding that the Chengxiang County was still under control of these Fujian troops. Is there any danger therein?

Zheng Chenggong stepped into the city with great strides, and Shi Lang, Huang Ting and others followed him like a troupe. The surrounding Fujian soldiers looked at the Ming army commander with a python robe and jade belt and walked in without hesitation, and stood there in amazement. It was not until a moment later that they woke them up.

"It's the master of the country, it's the master of the country!"

"The Master Guo is here, it is the Master Guo who is here to save us. The Master Guo has not forgotten us old brothers."

“…”

The soldiers who recognized Zheng Chenggong fell to the ground and spread out in constant exclamations at the speed of contagion.

"Soldiers, you read that right. I am Zhu Chenggong. I will take you home here!"

I went home and entered Guangdong with Li Chengdong the next year. I have been wandering in a foreign land and being bullied, especially when I was just rescued, the lethality of this word to them can be imagined.

Exclaimed and bowed, and in a flash they turned into tears. Looking back on the blood and tears over the past two years, such a child without a mother's love, they never thought of living even a day. When that was the case, it seemed that even God was infected, and the heavy rain came in an instant, pouring on these soldiers, but it could not destroy the hot hope and desire they had just rekindled.

In the heavy rain, Zheng Chenggong did not need his personal soldiers to hold umbrellas, and loudly sootheed the soldiers' emotions, asking them to return to the military camp to repair and wait for their departure to Chaozhou Prefecture. Cheers resounded throughout the city, and even Huang Ting, Hong Xishan, Su Mao and other generals all showed excitement. Only Shi Lang looked at everything in front of him with a complicated expression, silent.

After the heavy rain, after a short rest, Zheng Chenggong personally set off with these Fujian troops entering Guangdong and set off on a boat to return to Chaozhou Fucheng. He went downstream. After a few days, the army arrived at the Fucheng one after another. The military camp and all facilities were ready, and the food and grass were already prepared. The army disembarked at the Jinshang Ferry outside Shangshuimen, and was assigned to various barracks to rest under the guidance of the officers from Chaozhou City Guardian Association.

The lower-level officers and soldiers were placed, while Zheng Chenggong led a group of generals into the city's headquarters and held a banquet to welcome them.

On the city gate tower of Guangji Gate, Chen Kai looked at all this silently, watching the army being placed in three military camps far apart, watching Zheng Chenggong bringing the generals into the city, and watching the army's few leftover baggage being carried off the ship by the civilians, but a smile could not help but turn a smile on his lips.

The welcoming banquet was held at the established time. As Zheng Chenggong's chief planner, Chen Kai would come to the banquet even if he was still on "breaking".

When the guest and the host sat down, Zheng Chenggong was in the main seat, with the left on both sides as the highest and the right on both sides. On the left, what Zheng Chenggong did was to follow his old subordinates for many years, while on the right were the deputy sects who came to accompany Shi Lang, Huang Ting, Hong Xishan, Su Mao and others, as well as Shi Xian who came to accompany him.

Without further ado, the Shi brothers were seated in one place. Huang Ting was the general officer, and he was the four generals, generals and guerrillas behind him. On the left, the leader was the chief of the Ding Town, Zhong, Kuang Bo, Zhang Jin. The Count's identity was already outstanding here. He sat above the chief, and then there were military generals such as Hong Zheng, Ke Chenshu, Lin Yi, Guo Tai, Du Hui, Chen Bin, and two civil servants, Ye Yiyun and Chen Kai.

The Zheng Group itself is a maritime business group, a pirate group and a military group. The status of civil servants is lower. Moreover, Chen Kai and Ye Yiyun are both only in the fourth and fifth ranks of official ranks, and according to etiquette, they cannot be compared with those high-ranking generals who are often second and third ranks.

Shi Lang looked at it and most of the people on the other side were familiar. For example, Zhang Jin was Zheng Zhilong's old subordinates, Hong Zheng, Ke Chenshu, Lin Yi and Guo Tai, who had also seen Zheng Chenggong's side at the beginning, and this time he rescued them with Zheng Chenggong in the early stage. Even Du Hui had an impression. But apart from that, he was all a little disgusted, at least he had no impression.

"I'll introduce you to you that this hero is a powerful general in our army, named Chen Bin, and now he is the general town of Houjin Town."

"Looking for a long time."

Chen Bin is a native of Chaozhou. Before following Zheng Chenggong, he was just a rural villager. He was nothing more than the name of martial arts and bravery in Chaozhou. His martial arts and bravery were also a temporary choice. Zheng Chenggong was promoted to win over Chaozhou people for his use. Now he is also the dispatch of a general officer.

This long-term reverence is nothing more than being polite. No matter what others say, Shi Lang doesn't think he will feel that he will long-term reverence for an unknown person.

After introducing Chen Bin, Zheng Chenggong introduced Ye Yiyun to them. The latter also gained a lot of reverence for a long time, and then he said nothing more. However, when it came to Chen Kai, who was the lowest-level banquet, the group of people on the opposite side suddenly changed color.

"This is my recruitment of the general to join the army and manage military weapons affairs. Chen Kai and Chen Jingcheng, the general of Zhangzhou Prefecture."

"You are Chen Zhanjun, who has been wise in Chaozhou. He has long been famous and well-known."

This compliment is far from others. However, when Chen Kai bowed his hand and returned the gift, he saw nothing more than Huang Ting, Hong Xishan, Su Mao and others. Even if he pretended, he could feel it. However, Shi Lang, the top leader, glanced at the corner of his mouth, even if it disappeared without a trace in that moment, he was captured by Chen Kai.

"When I was in Chengxiang, I heard from someone that Chen Zongjun was extremely wise and brave. If he had the chance, he would also be interested in asking for advice."
