Better to live forever [Rebirth]

Yu Deng said that there was a pirate sentry ship hiding in the fog, and several people couldn't help breaking out in a cold sweat.

They shuttled through the house for nearly an hour, and every moment of this time may become the moment when their warship fell. You must know that if they fight in the fog, even if it is not one-to-many, they have no chance of winning. Unexpectedly It turns out that they have become the fish that slipped through the net.

Zhu Dingbei thought it was true.

The pirates' stronghold is so close to Nanhai County, so they must have something to rely on.The dense fog is a natural barrier, he wondered how they could get through it without wind and waves, it turned out that it was Yu Deng who led the way.

When Yu Deng was exploring the way before, he swam with the fish in the water mist belt and knew the enemy's arrangement in the water mist.In his opinion, those fishing nets with holes in them are not threats at all, and there is no need to mention them to others.

Qian Hui was so angry that his face was turning green, but he had no choice but to borrow his siren to bring the letter back, listing the time of Shui Wu's experience and the layout of the local sentry, and then let him Yu Deng must teach the Krakens, otherwise, without his guidance, the rear army of Dong Minghe and others would not be a meal for the pirates?

After Zhu Dingbei saw the defense of the pirates in the mist, he knew that their purpose was more: expulsion.It's not an attack, so there is no other way at the moment, and when Qian Hui arranged it, he didn't talk too much.

After all, Qian Hui is the leader of this vanguard army, regardless of whether he is Qian Hui's master in private, he can't interfere too much with this.

When the clairvoyance could vaguely see the hundreds of warships, they stopped marching.

Under the eyes of thousands of miles, they can see clearly that those warships are connected together. This draft capacity can handle even a sea storm. No wonder they dare to choose their base near the reefs.

The soldiers who went into the water to investigate came back and informed the approximate range of the reef group, which was just outside the range of the army's long-range attack crossbow.They can't attack from a distance, and they can't go forward with the natural barrier of reefs, and they can only wait and see when facing each other.

"It is impossible that there is no breakthrough, otherwise, how did they cross the reef group to the opposite side?"

Qian Hui frowned, if it wasn't for the inconvenience of his status as a general, he would also like to go to the sea to investigate in person.

Yu Deng avoided Qian Hui's gaze, "Don't go, there is a vortex."

They grew up in the water since they were young, and the vortex is as terrifying as the storm. Both he and the sea monster will be mercilessly sucked into the vortex, and they will never return.

Qian Hui glared at him angrily.

This is why Yu Deng is still no longer formally organized into the army. Just not being ordered by a general is enough for him to die several times, but Dong Ming and the others are not the kind of people who are so strong that they can't tell right from wrong.Judging from Yu Deng's childhood upbringing, they are very self-aware, they will not do what they can't do, and they will be outspoken. However, they finally returned to the coast, and they have no sense of belonging and mission to the Dajing Navy. Will not die for them.

Zhu Dingbei understood that it was more difficult for Qian Hui to communicate with Yu Deng than Dong Minghe, a scout who could not communicate with the general and had no one to replace him, he really didn't know what to say.

He pulled Yu Deng over and asked a few questions carefully, and after confirming them one by one, he said: "Then there are still a few places where you can avoid the vortex. Only here can you pass the warship?"

Yu Deng nodded and shook his head again, "Here, there are heavy guards, and the sea water is the same."

To make Yu Deng so fearful, one can imagine how strict their arrangements are here.Zhu Dingbei glanced at Qian Hui, the latter already had his own strategy, responded with a look, and let Yu Deng rest for half a day, and then took the boat to find out the pirates' defense.

Since it is the only checkpoint, the pirates will of course be heavily guarded. At the same time, the people patrolling must be unavoidable. These are what they need to understand as forwards.

The vanguard of the navy is very different from the vanguard on land. It is not enough to charge into battle. At the same time, they must master the climate and terrain of the sea and the opponent's force.

After Yu Deng and others came back, they drew out the defense plan, tentatively decided not to move, pulled the boat back to hide the warship near the mist, and asked Yu Deng to go back to meet the rear army.

After Yu Deng left, Zhu Dingbei sighed and said: "You have to treat him better, he will work hard and bear no complaints, regardless of military rank and meritorious service, he will not receive an extra military salary."

In the early stage of the war, Yu Deng and his friends were so busy, it was not easy.

Qian Hui rubbed his nose and said, "Who made him unable to teach disciples? People in their clan saw us hiding away one by one."

The life of the Yu Deng tribe after they landed is not much different from that of overseas. They don't have much contact with outsiders, and they don't want to contact the Pingzhou army who fought against them.Only Yu Deng was an exception, and for some reason, he got along well with Huang Yu. I don't know how many people in the army established relationships with him, and no matter how many tricks they used, it was useless.

Seeing Zhu Dingbei looking at him disapprovingly, Qian Hui said in a low voice, "You can't rely on only one person to march and fight. Even without Yu Deng, we still have to win this battle."

Yu Deng's role is very important, but they can't rely too much on shortcuts, Qian Hui and others are very clear about this.

Zhu Dingbei patted him on the shoulder and didn't say much.

At noon of the second day, Zhu Dingbei urged Ning Heng to go to the misty water to see the school of fish, but Ning Heng refused to say anything, and forced him to go fishing on the warship.Zhu Dingbei scolded him for being boring, but he knew Ning Heng's non-negotiable attitude, and he didn't force or obey.Uncle Ning made soup with the sea fish they caught, and roasted some more. It was very funny to see Master Zhu's temper coming and going quickly.

Zhu Dingbei didn't have the opportunity to go to sea in his previous life. His grandfather was stationed in the East China Sea for reinforcements. He had heard many stories about his elders. He also yearned for naval battles, so he felt that everything was new and eager to try.But after all, he is not a real impulsive and curious young man. If he mentions it casually to adjust his boring life, he will naturally not be serious.

It was also rare for Qian Hui to have the opportunity to be alone with him, leaving aside Lord Changxin, just like the two of them used to do in Zhenbeihou's residence, exchanging each other's attainments in military strategy.While Zhu Dingbei praised Qian Huijinyi, Qian Hui was also secretly surprised and admired Zhu Dingbei's military knowledge that Zhu Dingbei no longer reserved for him.

The two chatted for half a day, and Ning Heng personally invited Zhu Dingbei to have dinner. After eating, he took him to eat on the deck and then returned to the cabin. up.

After receiving the news from Ning Heng, Zhu Dingbei showed surprise.Unexpectedly, Ningheng could still get a letter from the Ning family here, and he couldn't help but understand the pervasive intelligence work of the Ning family.

After reading it, Zhu Dingbei hooked his lips with a smile that was not a smile, and said: "This year, the two empresses are really unlucky to compete with each other. The emperor must have forgotten to wait for these two nobles when praying for heaven these few years. "

Ning Heng glanced at him, not wanting to hear him joke about God and sacrifices.

Zhu Dingbei raised his eyebrows and ignored him, but pondered over the new news.

The barbarian army in Ningzhou retreated steadily under the suppression of the old general Ye Shenren, and the military strength of Panyue and Shan Kingdom gradually calmed down, and the situation in Ningzhou was about to stabilize.But at this time, when Zhen Youxiang was worshiping the dead in the main house of Ruan Zhoumu, he discovered by coincidence that there were hundreds of boxes of bad silver hidden under the ancestral hall of the Ruan Mansion. The year and stamp number of the silver are connected back and forth.

Before Zhen Youxiang could deal with it, Ruan Qifeng was found killing himself in the mansion.

Such an obvious suicide in fear of guilt makes people wonder whether it was done deliberately by someone with a heart.But no matter what, with Ruan Qifeng's death and the heavy damage the Ruan family suffered before, the Ruan family in Ningzhou will no longer live up to their previous glory.And they were involved in the case of bad money that Emperor Zhenyuan most tabooed. Even if they were plotted against, the emperor's trust in the Ruan family was gone.

Correspondingly, in the harem, Concubine Shu and the eldest prince under her knees also suffered.Originally, Concubine Ruan Shu's "illness" did not recover because of the family's humiliation. Now, the death of her greatest honor-biological father, Ningzhou State Shepherd Ruan Qifeng has hit her hard, and she is no longer ill.

Prior to this, the battle between the First Prince and the Fourth Prince for the position of the Crown Prince was getting tighter.Now that the eldest prince's family is in decline, it stands to reason that the fourth prince should be prosperous, but the strange thing is that with the efforts of the Ningzhou government, the Huang family in Liangzhou also has frequent accidents.

At first, because of the trade of women and children in the Liangzhou border people's trade, there was a lot of trouble, and the daughter of the Muhuang family in Liangzhou Prefecture was also killed.

While the Huang family made every effort to clean up the mutual market, they also took care of their son-in-law's house.

The deceased Huang's daughter was despised by her husband's family for uncleanness and refused to bury her in the ancestral grave. Her daughter was also unbearable to be slandered by outsiders, so she committed suicide in a fit of anger.Since then, the Huang family and the Wang family have become enemies, and the Wang family is still not good enough in front of the Huang family, a big family in Liangzhou.

After the Huang family expelled them from Jincheng where the State Shepherd's Mansion is located, they did not kill them all. Who would have expected that the Wang family would go back and come back, and even teamed up with the group of desperadoes in the mutual market to sneak into the State Shepherd's Mansion to kill and rob them.What's more, they insulted all the female relatives to death, even the old lady of the Huang family, who had passed her [-]th birthday, stripped off her clothes and hung them on the beam.

Before the group left, they also threw the naked bodies of the wife of the Huang family and the daughter of the daughter outside the door. Countless witnesses caused an uproar.

When the news reached Luo Jing, Concubine Huang vomited blood on the spot, almost unable to breathe.Emperor Zhenyuan was also furious, he scolded the guard of Jincheng, and issued an order to exterminate the mutual market, not letting any one go.The one who died was the Huang family—Uncle Guo, a powerful and powerful person in Dajing, who slapped the emperor in the face.

Zhu Dingbei suppressed the anger in his heart, and said coldly: "Aheng, we must go back as soon as possible."
