Zhu Youcheng did not meet Yuan Chonghuan because their ship sailed on the sea for twenty days and arrived at Juehua Island on December 28, the fifth year of Tianqi.`````

The alert on Juehua Island was very good. Although he knew that Jiannu had no ships and the Ming Dynasty flag was hung on the Fu boat, the scout of Juehua Island still rowed a small sampan to check it out.

I heard that the Jinyiwei Pacification envoy came to Juehua Island, and the generals on the island lined up in an orderly manner to welcome the emperor's personal army at the port. Although the generals were more or less dissatisfied with the domineering Jinyiwei, no one dared to say it on the surface, and they all pretended to be respectful.

The first person to come off the lucky boat was Zhu Youcheng. He was wearing the golden armor of the Jinyiwei. Although there was no sunshine in the sky, the armor was still shining brightly, making everyone's eyes shine.

Wang Xifu looked at Zhu Youcheng in surprise. He didn't expect that the slander was so young. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He was really different from his fate. He had been living for half his life before he became the commander of the capital. The slander in front of him seemed to be just a half-year-old boy, but he was already a fourth-rank slander.

In the late Ming Dynasty, the official positions in Liaodong were in chaos. Anyway, the day was in danger. If you had a grade, you would change the name of a good official position and carved it on the tombstone to glorify your ancestors. The commander of the Duke was the second rank, but the commander of the Juehua Island had four battalions, with less than 10,000 people, and only the fourth rank.

With envy and jealousy, Wang Xifu welcomed Zhu Youcheng into the yamen of the commander-in-chief.

Wang Xifu left, but the soldiers of the Jinyiwei continued to come down from the Fu boat, so the other soldiers on the island could only stay and welcome them on both sides.

Wu Tianmeng knew that he had a bad temper and was prone to offend people, so he stood aside very low-key and blocked himself with Feng Yu's unscrupulous body. Even so, he was still targeted.

He pulled Feng Yu aside with one hand. Wu Tianmeng found that there was a pair of leather boots in front of him. Then someone asked sarcastically: "General Wu, can you always be good?"

Wu Tianmeng raised his head and stared at Qianhu, the Jinyiwei in front of him. He suddenly reached out and lifted his helmet and grabbed his ear. The scene was a big uproar, and everyone secretly praised him. He thought to himself that Wu Tianmeng was really a fierce man, and he actually dared to pull Shangguan of the Jinyiwei. The generals from Juehua Island came forward to persuade him. What was strange was that the soldiers of the Jinyiwei did not help when they saw the leader being attacked, but just watched with interest.

Seeing someone persuading him, Wu Tian shouted fiercely: "I don't have to choose time when I teach my son a lesson. Gou Ping, can you do it? How dare you speak like this when you see my dad?"

Wu Huping grinned and said, "Oh, Dad, be gentle. His ears were pulled off. I am a thousand households now, and I have thousands of people under my command. Let me save some face."

Wu Tianmeng snorted heavily and let go of his hand. The military officers present realized that the young general was Wu Tianmeng's son. The two were joking and they would smile with heart.

Wu Huping turned around and temporarily handed over the matter of leading the troops to the deputy Qianhu. Then he negotiated with Wu Tianmeng to name the name: "Dad, Lord Zhu has changed my name to Wu Huping. You nodded on the spot. Why did you call me my original nickname in front of public?"

"I regret it, okay..."

The two of them hadn't seen each other for a long time, so they started chatting on the side of the road. The generals from Juehua Island came to congratulate Wu Tianmeng on giving birth to a good son. Wu Tianmeng was humble, but he felt happy.

When the last Jinyiwei got off the boat, Wu Huping said to his father: "I have military orders. I can't delay any more. If you have something to do, wait until I have settled the soldiers."

At the same time, in the yamen of the commander-in-chief, Zhu Youcheng was asking about the situation on Wang Xifu Island. When he heard that there were 250,000 stones of grain on the island, he was silent. Then he heard that all the ships on the island were sealed by the ice. He was so depressed that he wanted to hit the wall with his head.

Seeing that he was in a bad mood, Wang Xifu comforted him, "Don't worry, sir, Jiannu can't beat him. We are afraid of the cold. Are Jiannu not afraid of the cold? We have cotton jackets, but they are still trembling with coldness. Jiannu is wearing fur jackets, so isn't it even colder?"

Zhu Youcheng glanced at him coldly and said, "Jiannu is a fishing and hunting nation. Since Grandpa Chengzu lent them Liaodong for temporary residence, they have lived among the white mountains and black waters for many years. They don't do it for a day and can't eat for a day, so they still have to fish and hunt in the cold winter. Do you think they will be afraid of the cold? Also, in order to prevent our muskets, most of their soldiers wear cotton armor, leather jackets inside and cotton armor outside. Will it be cold? Don't ask me why they have cotton armor worn, they are all stolen from us, and there are blood of our soldiers who cannot be washed off. By the way, the Ministry of War conducted a detailed investigation and found out that since November, Jiannu has begun to gather troops. Who should you attack? You can think about it yourself."

"Jiannu is not afraid when he comes. Juehua Island is in the west and Ningyuan City is in the east. If you attack from east to west, Jiannu will be destroyed."

Zhu Youcheng's eyes widened and stared at Wang Xifu: "Are you a pig? Jiannu came out in full swing this time, with troops ranging from 60,000 to 120,000. Ningyuan Jiajuehua Island's total strength is less than 30,000, and he is still attacking from both sides? Besides, you don't know the Ming Dynasty's field ability. When Jiannu came, Ningyuan must have closed the door and thanked the guests, and helped you attack Jiannu. You dreamed."

Wang Xifu looked pale and murmured: "Mr. Yuan has left 400 personal soldiers, so he will not leave his personal soldiers alone."

"I would like to remind you that Lord Yuan is a civil servant, and there is no such thing as a personal soldier."

Wang Xifu was awakened by Zhu Youcheng, and knelt on the ground with a "thump" and begged: "Mr. Zhu, help me."

Zhu Youcheng sighed and said, "There are 250,000 stones of grain, which will definitely not be able to be saved. If Jiannu attacks, we will burn it. The emperor has given me an imperial edict to make me cheaper. You don't have to worry about the Ministry of War to pursue the matter. I am fully responsible for this matter. But all the personnel must retreat and cannot be sent to Jiannu. Lord Wang, you mobilize the military and civilians to evacuate them all. Tianjin is relatively close, and you will get there first. If there is my token, there will be sure to accept it. Retreat the people first, then withdraw the troops. I brought 25 great blessing ships, each blessing ship can take 300 to 400 people, and 7,500 to 10,000 people can be evacuated at one time. Don't worry about food on the road, open the warehouse and let them use it at will. However, the blessing ship

It can only be used once, because it takes about twenty days to and from Tianjin Port. On January 20th, Jiannu will definitely come. So, the lucky ship comes to Juehua Island again and has no time to pick you up. It is here to pick you up, the Jinyiwei. As for your soldiers, it will be transported by ships frozen on Juehua Island. Starting tonight, all soldiers will be cancelled and all their strength will be digging. Don’t worry about too many people loading. The boat cannot move. As long as you sit on the boat and 500 steps off the shore, Jiannu will have no choice. There is no food on the island, and it will take ten days and half a month to waste Jiannu away. You just said that there are more than two thousand frozen boats, and even if they are all small fishing boats, each can hold four or five people. So as long as you move now, there will be no bleeding on Juehua Island."

As he said that, he took out a token and shook it in front of Wang Xixun. Wang Xixun was a military general with sharp eyes. At this moment, he saw the words engraved on the token: "Admiral Dongjishi Factory Wei". This sign is the token of the 999-year-old Eunuch Wei. With this token, you can go anywhere in the world. What's more, it's a small Tianjin.

Wang Xifu was overjoyed and said, "Mr. Zhu, I will immediately call the soldiers and civilians of the island to convey the orders."

Zhu Youcheng also followed him out, but he did not go to testify for Wang Xifu, but commanded the soldiers of the Jinyi Guard to camp. The housing on the island was tense, and Wang Xifu could free Zhu Youcheng for a three-entry house, but it was impossible to give up a room for every soldier.

Wu Huping found a flat ground. Five Thousand Jinyiwei could be stationed here. Zhu Youcheng looked at it. The place was good, but it was too close to the frozen sea. Looking through a telescope, you could also see the tall Ningyuan City opposite the coast. This was probably the road to Jiannu invasion of Juehua Island.

Zhu Youcheng said to Chen Guoqi: "Before the tenth day of the first lunar month, two scattered lords will be sent every day. Once in the morning and evening. After the tenth day of the first lunar month, three scattered lords will be sent every day, increasing once at noon. For every ten people, the reconnaissance range will be 100 miles. If possible, capture the enemy scattered lords and try to catch them alive."

Chen Guoqi nodded. Zhu Youcheng pointed at Bing and said to the six thousand households and said, "This should be the passage for Jiannu invasion. You build a wall of chest-high height here. Although we may not necessarily encounter Jiannu, it is always good to prepare early."

Ke Qingqing thought carefully and asked, "Mr. Punishment envoy, what kind of wall should he use? This time we came to Liaodong, we did not bring cement here."

“Bricks, wood and water.”

"Can water glue the bricks together?" Ke Qingqing, Jiang Ting, Feng Dingbang, and Xu Ning asked in confusion, while Wu Huping and Chen Guoqi seemed to have thought of something and nodded and smiled.

Zhu Youcheng explained: "Don't forget that it is a winter when water turns into ice. Build bricks and pour them on water. After a night, you can become a solid ice wall. The sea can be frozen, let alone a narrow wall? By the way, you need to leave a shooting hole."

Zhu Youcheng sighed and said, "I originally wanted to use my grain pocket to build a wall here directly, but once the grain is frozen, it cannot be burned. Instead, it was given to Jiannu. This ice surface is very wide, more than ten miles long, so I was afraid that I would not use tens of thousands of stones of grain and grass. We must not do such a stupid thing."

Xu Ning asked, "Sir, where do bricks and wood come from?"

"The residents on Juehua Island are about to evacuate. We will be a demolition team, go one by one, demolish one by one, and never leave any nails."

The six thousand households did not understand Zhu Youcheng's cold jokes, and he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.

Jiang Ting asked with some concern: "Sir, what if the sun comes out, the ice and snow melt, and the ice wall collapses?"

"It's OK to fall. If the ice wall falls, the frozen sea surface will definitely melt. Even if it has not thawed, there will be only a thin layer of ice shell left on the surface. Jiannu will step on it..."

The six Qianhu and Zhu Youcheng both laughed in dismay.

After laughing for a while, Zhu Youcheng added: "But we have to be prepared to build the wall wider and water more. It is best to pour it at night. The temperature is low at night and freeze it as soon as it is poured."

After assigning the mission, Zhu Youcheng was about to see how the mobilization was going on with Wang Xifu, when he saw a young general coming towards him angrily. (To be continued, please search Piaotianwen, the novel is better and faster!
