Chapter 388 Deterrence, Helplessness, Cannon Barrel

Qiansuo City was built in the Hongwu period, and across the river is the Haimen Guard.

A row of large and small boats leaned against the river, and the boatmen looked at the carriage behind them and couldn't help but click their tongues secretly.

"There are so many carriages with so few people."

Amid these discussions, Fang Xing had reached the other side.

"The last general, Zhang Jin, pays homage to uncle!"

A general of medium build was already waiting on the shore, and when he saw Fang Xing landed, he immediately knelt down on one knee.

Fang Xing looked at the small town ahead, "Get up."

Zhang Jin got up, and said in a loud voice: "Uncle, there is no preparation in the city. The next official will send people to cut wood and build a camp immediately. Please forgive me, Uncle."

Fang Xing looked around, and only a few hills near and far had forests, so he nodded and said, "That's fine, but I won't be here for too long, so keep it simple, don't bother."

This time it came suddenly, and Fang Xing didn't expect to be stationed at Haimenwei at the time, so it was inevitable that he was in a hurry.

As for environmental protection, when time is short, what do you use without wood?

Burning bricks was more troublesome, so Fang Xing could only watch those people go up the mountain.

"Uncle, this is Dongshan."

Zhang Jin pointed to the hill not far away and said: "This place is condescending, not only can you monitor the enemy, but the local literati also like to climb the mountain for fun."

Fang Xing looked at it, nodded and said: "There are indeed some things to enjoy, but the most important thing right now is to eliminate the Japanese plague, let's talk about the situation."

When they arrived at the commander's office, Fang Xing took the first place without hesitation.

"Uncle, since May of this year, we have warned many times along the coast of Taizhou Prefecture, and there have been 19 invasions, large or small."

Zhang Jin looked at Fang Xing with some anxiety. Seeing that Fang Xing didn't show any anger, he continued, "I also think it's different. I just chased the enemy many times, but I didn't meet him once. I'm guilty of the crime!"

The commanders and colleagues below all lowered their heads, for fear that Fang Xing would take the blame and directly question him.

The Wu Xun of the Ming Dynasty was in charge of the army, and it was no problem to take down these military officers. Afterwards, it was just an official letter to the Ministry of War and the Governor's Office of the Five Armies, asking them how to deal with it.

Fang Xing frowned and said, "Those bare-bottomed dwarfs run so fast?"

When the people below heard this, no one showed any surprise.

In fact, Fang Xing has never seen Japanese pirates before, but only learned about the appearance of these bastards from the mouth of Xiao Dao.

Zhang Jin said dejectedly: "My Taizhou Mansion is by the sea, and there are too many places to land along the coast, so it's impossible to guard against, Uncle!"

Zhang Jin's subordinates all looked ashamed, while Fang Xing remained expressionless, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Knock knock knock!"

Fang Xing tapped the table with his fingers, and said slowly: "Although you waited for nothing, seeing that you are still ashamed, I think there is still hope!"

Hearing this, Zhang Jin's face turned red, but he didn't dare to refute.

"Since you are still saved, I will let you wait for a while and see what happens!"

Fang Xing's words were both a blow and a life-saving straw.

After Fang woke up, Zhang Jin wiped off the sweat on his forehead, and said in fear: "Fortunately, it's Xing Hebo!"

If the subordinates didn't understand something, they asked: "Sir, we are just making mistakes, so why should we be so nervous?"

Zhang Jin glared at him, and said in a low voice: "If someone with a deep thought comes here today, he doesn't need to do anything, and he can still smile at us. But do you know, if this is the case, I will even take off my clothes tonight." I have the thought of fleeing with clothes."

Seeing that the man still didn't understand, Zhang Jin scolded: "As long as Jia Xing and Bo need us in normal times, they will give us face. When the Japanese suppression is over, no matter the victory or defeat, you and I will be in their hands You sheep, do you understand? Just take us to blame and ask for credit!"

Seeing that everyone was a little scared, Zhang Jin sighed: "So the higher the seat, the more trembling you will be. It's like facing an abyss! Fortunately, Xing Hebo doesn't think he's going to punish us, so he cheers up. If anyone makes a mistake, I will send him off personally. Go see Xing Hebo!"

Here I am warning my subordinates,

Fang Xing was already making preparations.

In the warehouse, Fang Xing found the National Guard station.

After checking the guns and ammunition, Fang Xing pried open a few boxes, looked at the large cannon barrel binoculars with brackets inside, and couldn't help sighing: "This is a magic weapon!"

But it still had to be dealt with, Fang Xing began to tear the labels, and even took out a file to file off the labels.

After coming out, Fang Xing called Fang Wu, explained how to use it in a somewhat unfamiliar manner, and then said: "Be careful with this thing, except when it's in use, it must be put in a box, understand?"

Fang Wu experimented a few times under Fang Xing's guidance, and his jaw almost fell off.

"My lord, is this... the method of the gods?"

Fang Xing scolded: "I usually tell you to study well in class. Didn't I teach you the principle of the telescope?"

Fang Wu scratched his head and said, "But master, this one looks so big, it's frightening to death."

"roll!"

Fang Xing shouted.

When Fang Wu left with the cannon barrel, Fang Xing was also worried.

Madan's! Even the servants who have been taught by him for a long time are shocked by these things. If ordinary people see it, they will have to kneel down and call the gods!

"Uncle, please come and see me."

"Come in."

Fang Xing greeted, and then realized that he had occupied the commander's territory.

However, Fang Xing remained calm, if he took the initiative to give up his place, it would not be a corporal, but a distinction between superiors and inferiors, and others would think he was weak and deceitful.

"Uncle, there is no one around you to serve you. A few rich people in the city sent a few... Take a look and stay if it suits you?"

As soon as he said that, six young women came in from outside the door, all of them were about fourteen or fifteen years old, and there was even one whose face was so immature that Fang Xing couldn't help frowning.

"Fang did not come here to enjoy himself."

Fang Xing said lightly, the bodies of those girls trembled immediately, which made him feel a deep sense of powerlessness.

"Bolu!"

"Uncle."

Huang Zhong came out from behind, and was a little dazed when he saw this scene.

Fang Xing pondered for a while and said, "Bolu, ask Lao Qi for some gifts, and then personally bring someone to send these young ladies home, and say that Fang Xing accepts them as a good intention, but there are military laws in the army, so Fang Xing As a leader, it is not good to take the lead in violation."

"So be it."

Fang Xing nodded, and Huang Zhong took the girls to find Xin Laoqi.

Zhang Jin felt that he had flattered the horse's hoof, so he couldn't help resigning embarrassingly.

When Huang Zhong came back again, he asked puzzledly: "Uncle, these are all temptations and flattery from the locals! If you accept it, it will be of great help to the suppression of the Japanese."

Fang Xing said lightly: "Are these girls mostly concubines?"

Huang Zhong nodded, and Fang Xing sighed: "These are all bargaining chips. If I'm lustful, it's okay to talk about it, but I still have a wife and a concubine at home. I never thought about it, so don't hurt others."

"Then the gift you just ordered..."

Fang Xing explained: "One is to shorten the relationship between the two parties, and the other is to prevent those girls from being blindsided and reprimanded when they go home!"
