Chapter 622: I caught the boat, and I caught the person, and returned with a full load

Qi Hainian, who was unconscious, was soon awakened.

This Tianjin Navy general hopes that he will never see Zhang Zhun's harmless face after he "wakes up". However, he is very regretful, he still sees it. Because Zhang Zhun has not left yet. Zhang Zhun seemed to be preparing to stay in Dagukou, and he actually leisurely visited around the port.

If it were the Dagukou port in the past, it would have been dirty and foul. But isn’t this the New Year? No matter how in combat power the Tianjin Navy is, there is still the power to clean it. It just so happened that before the Chinese New Year, Qi Hainian ordered the Tianjin Navy to clean it up. Therefore, the Dagukou wharf now looks very neat, so it is no wonder that Zhang Zhun has such leisure and elegance.

However, in Qi Hainian's opinion, Zhang Zhun's behavior was completely torture himself! You have successfully towed all the warships of the Tianjin Navy and renovated. Are you not satisfied and still want to renovate the Dagukou port? With that ability, you'd better renovate the capital. Thinking of this, Qi Hainian couldn't help but say, "Governor, how long are you... going to stay here?"

Zhang Zhun looked at him squintly and said lightly: "I'm waiting for someone."

Qi Hainian was full of questions, but he wanted to speak but stopped.

Waiting for someone?

Who are you waiting for?

In Dagukou, and even Tianjin Wei, who is worth waiting for? Judging from your appearance, even if Emperor Chongzhen comes, I am afraid you will not buy it!

The person Zhang Zhun is waiting for is actually Wu Sangui.

Wu Sangui was stationed in Tianjin Wei. The distance from Dagukou to Tianjin is very short, and Wu Sangui will soon know what happened in Dagukou. If Wu Sangui sends troops, he can only kill from Tianjin Wei to Dagukou in just one hour. Yes, only one hour.

Zhang Zhun looked at the sky. It was Wei Shi. If Wu Sangui sent troops, Shen Shi would definitely have arrived. If he had not seen Wu Sangui yet, it would mean that he would definitely not have come. Zhang Zhun never doubted Wu Sangui's military qualities. This guy is definitely a good fighter and will not delay his work.

The Tianjin Guard, where Wu Sangui is stationed, is very important. If the court is really planning any major conspiracy, it will definitely remind Wu Sangui to act on the camera. As long as he is based on Wu Sangui's actions, he can tell whether the court is really planning a conspiracy to deal with him.

Seeing that Zhang Zhun was reluctant to leave, Qi Hainian couldn't help but say again: "Sir, you..."

Zhang Zhun said coldly: "I've said everything, I'm waiting for someone."

Qi Hainian felt that his head was covered with bags, and he didn't know where to start. After losing the Tianjin Navy, he began to feel a little scared. With Emperor Chongzhen's personality, if he didn't like his subordinates, it might be the result of the fall of the head. If he lost the Tianjin Navy, what other way could he have? The world is so big that he no longer has his place to stay. There was no way, Qi Hainian had to say bitterly: "Sir, can you take me away too?"

Zhang Zhun looked at him squintly and said indifferently: "What? Do you want to renovate it too?"

Qi Hainian said helplessly: "Governor, my ship has been renovated on your side. Do I want to go over and take a look?"

Zhang Zhun looked at Qi Hainian again and said indifferently: "Are you sure you really want to go and have a look?"

Qi Hainian made up his mind and said firmly: "I'm sure."

Zhang Zhun looked around and said slowly: "Who else is willing to go and see it except you?"

Qi Hainian breathed a sigh of relief and said hurriedly: "I'll go and ask. I believe there are many people who are willing to go with me."

Zhang Zhun nodded and said thoughtfully: "Since that's the case, go and ask, go and go back quickly."

Qi Hainian hurriedly agreed to go.

Zhang Zhun subconsciously touched his nose.

It seems that I have gained a lot when I went out on the first day of the New Year. Not only did I confiscate all the warships of the Tianjin Navy, I also caught some useful talents. It seems that the Hu Ben Army does not need mediocre talents like Qi Hainian. However, among the lower-level officers and soldiers of the Tianjin Navy, there may not be no useful people. It seems that Huang Shijun, Wang Chenglin, Ling Sishou and others also came out of the Tianjin Navy?

As more sword-tooth ships were launched, the Hu Ben Navy needed more professional sailors. If we could get some useful talents from the Tianjin Navy, it would be very beneficial to the rapid development of the Hu Ben Navy. Seriously speaking, the foundation of the Ming Navy is still stronger than that of the Hu Ben Navy. It is only because of poor command, internal corruption, and the court did not have enough military expenditure, which would be corrupt to such a level.

People are still like that, and things are still like that, but changing places and management modes may show completely different combat power. Zhang Zhun has enough confidence that if ordinary Tianjin naval officers and soldiers join the Hu Ben Navy, he has the ability to bring out the potential of these people, and they will no longer be as confused as before and are in trouble.

Soon, Qi Hainian came back. He brought back a message that surprised Zhang Zhun - there were three or four hundred people in the Tianjin Navy who were willing to go to Shandong. I have to say that such numbers were completely beyond Zhang Zhun's expectations. He originally estimated that there were only a few dozen people. However, after thinking about it carefully, Zhang Zhun understood.

The treatment of Tianjin Navy was indeed not very good. In the army sequence of the Ming Dynasty, the Navy was always a vassal and never had an independent position. The court often set up a navy when it was needed, and disbanded the navy when it was not needed. For this reason, compared with the infantry, the treatment of the navy in all aspects was much worse.

For example, the navy was at a disadvantage in the distribution of military fields. Many naval soldiers' fields were allocated to islands. For example, the former East China Sea Zhongsou was a naval guard station, and most of the fields of officers and soldiers were on the Yuzhou Mountain. Compared with the inland fields, the fields on these pirates were of course not so fertile. The harvest of fields of the same area was at least 30%.

What's more, by the end of the Ming Dynasty, most military households had no land of their own and could only rely on meager money and food to live. The navy and infantry were different, and they were relatively professional. This was destined that the navy would not be temporarily recruited when the battle broke out. The recruited personnel must have been in service for a long time. You can't expect a person who has no foundation to become a qualified sailor in one or two years. Even Zhang Zhun could not do such training skills.

Therefore, in the navy, most of the officers and soldiers are actually military households of the navy garrison. For them, the most needed thing is two points. The first point is to obtain their own fields, be able to farm freely, and pay reasonable taxes. The second point is to abolish the hereditary identity of military households. These two points are just available to the Hu Ben Army. Therefore, it is not surprising that they are ready to surrender to the Hu Ben Army.

As for some officers of the Tianjin Navy, they would rather surrender to the Hu Ben Army because they were entirely for their personal future. For example, Qi Hainian accumulated more than 100,000 taels of property, which is actually not safe. If he angered any senior official, his family might be confiscated and exterminated. The Ming Navy's navy has never had any status, and there are too many parents-in-law who can bully their parents-in-law. Back then, Chen Lin, the admiral of the Ming Navy, was just the title of deputy general. Now, all the warships of the Tianjin Navy were stolen by Zhang Zhun. If the court pursued them, they would definitely be in trouble.

Therefore, although Zhang Zhun had dealt with the Tianjin Navy and was considered an enemy of the Tianjin Navy, Qi Hainian still felt that Zhang Zhun's territory was safer. At least, even if the Tartars came, he was not afraid. Taking tens of thousands of taels of silver to Zhang Zhun's territory and doing some small business is also a good way out. Even if he didn't do anything, it would have been a long time.

According to the information secretly revealed by Chen Yaoyang, there is no need to manage things up and down on Zhang Zhun's territory, and no need to go through the back door to do things. Every penny of money belongs to you. As long as you abide by the law, no one dares to make excuses to blackmail your money. This feeling is indeed very good.

"You're going, you're just an ordinary person."

Zhang Zhun said clearly.

"I don't want to go to sea anymore."

Qi Hainian said honestly.

Since Qi Hainian had such thoughts, Zhang Zhun did not resist. He asked Gao Yu to gather all the relevant surrenders, reiterated the various laws of the Hu Ben Army, and confirmed again whether they were really willing to go to Shandong. As a result, he received a positive answer. So Zhang Zhun stopped asking and ordered them to board the ship and prepare to go to Shandong.

As a result, this trouble was already Shen Shi. Wu Sangui had not arrived yet. Zhang Zhun's face slowly became gloomy. It seemed that the court was indeed brewing a big conspiracy and was preparing to give himself a blow when he was the most careless. In order to relax his vigilance, the court would definitely make concessions in many places. In that case, should he obtain more benefits from the court?

"Sir, are we going to spend the night here?

Li Jicheng came up to ask for instructions.

"No! The order is sent back!"

Zhang Zhun said sternly.

Li Jicheng conveyed the order in confusion.

The Dabai Fleet and all the Tianjin Navy warships all raised their sails and rushed south quickly under the north wind. Because it was a good wind, the ship was very fast. In just one hour, Zhang Zhun and the Dabai Fleet returned to the port of Liujiabao.

As for other ships carrying Tianjin Navy officers and soldiers, they went to the front of Wang Xuzhai, where people would naturally be able to pick them up and arrange them. From then on, they were ordinary people in the area controlled by Zhang Zhun. Whether they could join the Hu Ben Army Navy depends on whether they could pass the relevant test. Zhang Zhun would definitely not want anyone who did not meet the requirements.

Mo Yu was waiting for Zhang Zhun at the port. As soon as he met, he came up excitedly and reported, "Governor, the court has come, it is Qiao Yunsheng, the Minister of Justice. He said there are very confidential things to tell you."
