Mingzhu has really done a big thing. Li Yue has always indulged her and given her a lot of authority. Over the years, she has trained about 1000 female soldiers, and almost invested all her own money in it. Even Li Yue and Yang Yao wanted to subsidize her.No matter what era it is, raising soldiers, especially an elite soldier, is really costly.If you want to maintain high-intensity training, you need a lot of high-nutrient food intake, which is not lacking in Quanzhou.Not to mention Quanzhou, today’s Datang, on the whole, is not short of food. The meat from the sea has provided a good source of protein for the people. In Minyue, even the laborers who have been trafficked , the inside of the bowl is also a little meaty every day, even if it's just leftovers.As for the thousand female soldiers raised by Mingzhu, they consume a lot of food, eggs, vegetables, and all kinds of fish every day, and they still have a certain amount of military pay every month. Otherwise, girls of this age , in the textile workshop, you can easily earn one or two pennies, and you don’t need to struggle like in the army. Moreover, after joining the army, if you get tanned and thicker, it will affect you when you get married in the future. After retiring, I am afraid that my hands will become rough if I go to learn some weaving again.

Therefore, like these female soldiers, the lowest level also has a military salary of three pennies a month, and after they retire, they will also be arranged to be small officials in the yamen or the village. If they are so capable, they can even become the king of Fujian. Only in this way can female officials under the system have a certain degree of attractiveness.When Li Yue made this decision despite all the arguments, many people felt that Li Yue was too spoiled for her daughter, and paid so much for her daughter's thoughts.

In short, over the years, Mingzhu has had a thousand female soldiers in his hands, and they are all fully equipped. These female soldiers have undergone relatively strict training. They use spears for close combat and spears for long-distance. Carry some easily damaged spare parts, which can be replaced at any time after failure.When fighting at sea, he can skillfully control the trebuchet and bed crossbow on the ship, and he is also wearing leather armor made of tanned whale skin. If he is fighting underwater, he also has a special water support.In short, over the past few years, Mingzhu spent thousands of guan per capita on these female soldiers. It can be said that all the wealth of a middle-class family has been invested.If it wasn't for Mingzhu being Li Yue's daughter, no matter what, she would not be able to afford the money.

Mingzhu was also considered to have a keen mind. After she was silent for a few days, she then used the excuse that she wanted to take the female soldiers out for training, and then took the men under her sail to set sail, expressing that she would definitely make a career out of it.

When Yang Yao heard about this, she almost fainted: "What did you say? Mingzhu left a letter and ran away?"

Li Yue also had a headache. In her previous life, a girl of her age had to report to the police if she ran away from home. Although Mingzhu brought 1000 people out, but with the changing situation at sea, who knows what will happen?Thinking of Mingzhu encountering a typhoon or other things, Li Yue wished to kill someone!Mingzhu had gone out to sea a few times before, but they all went out with a large army. The only thing that could comfort Li Yue was that Mingzhu and those under her had learned how to navigate at sea. In addition, Mingzhu also watched I used to draw a rough map based on my memory, combined with the Minyue fleet and the businessmen from overseas over the years, but I don’t know which direction Mingzhu took the people.

"Mingzhu probably won't go north. After all, there are too many fleets going north. She will meet them within a short distance. As for going to Ryukyu, it's impossible. That's a trap for herself. So, I'm afraid she will go directly to Nanyang. Go!" Li Yue frowned, although he said he was encouraging Ming Zhu to go out and do it alone in the future, but that is a matter of the future, she is still a girl who doesn't know the heights of the world, if anything happens, then she really It's too late to regret.

After roughly guessing Mingzhu's whereabouts, Li Yue immediately asked people to get ready, divided several directions, and asked them to find Mingzhu and his party.

"Don't worry, Ayao, what Mingzhu takes away is a big ship, which is very safe, and there are enough supplies on board. Even if there is a storm, there will be no major problems. There is no big storm on the sea this season. , there will be no problem!" After Li Yue gave her instructions, she had to appease Yang Yao, and Li Xi, who was in a hurry because Ming Zhu was not around, this kid liked to be Ming Zhu's follower when he was a child, although he is no longer like that now, I still miss this sister very much, I only regret that I didn't follow, and now I can't stop thinking about it.

Li Yue was calm on the face, but panicked in her heart. Although there are three children now, no matter which child is his heart, Mingzhu is his eldest daughter. She has been the only one in the family for several years. Li Yue has always treated her with respect. I love her very much. Although her previous education is to hope that she can be independent and self-reliant, but she shouldn't be independent and self-reliant at this age. This makes Li Yue feel a little unbearable for a while, but he is the head of the family. He was in a state of confusion, and the whole family was really panicking. Therefore, even though he hadn't received any news, Li Yue was still very calm. He should eat and drink. In fact, he was very anxious No, I lost a lot of weight in just half a month.

Fortunately, it didn't take long before news came. A fleet sent out sent back the news through carrier pigeons. They found traces left by Mingzhu and the others on a small island. That island was actually an ordinary coral island. Mingzhu and the others probably felt bored after sailing at sea for a long time, so they stayed on the coral island for a while.On the island, the fleet saw the earthen pots they left behind, which were originally used to hold canned fruit, and there were traces of fire.

Anyway, looking at the traces they left on the island, one can tell that their life is actually not bad, with sufficient supplies, and a little leisurely life.Li Yue breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly brought the good news to Yang Yao and Li Xi. Yang Yao was also very anxious these days, which made the ignorant Hutou also anxious. He became a small saboteur and made the house fly every day.As for Li Xi, this kid almost sneaked onto the boat going south before, but was found and carried off. Li Yue, who had never hit a child before, was so angry that he grabbed a feather duster and whipped Li Xi's butt a few times. It only made him howl like ghosts and wolves.The loss of one child is enough trouble, and running away with another child is because the parents are not upset enough, right?

"It's fine, it's fine, when I get her back, I'll beat her up!" Yang Yao first breathed a sigh of relief, then her anger also came up, and after thinking about it again, she blamed Li Yue On: "It's all your fault, you actually allowed her to train by herself back then, you just broke her heart, otherwise, how could this happen!"

Li Yue smiled wryly, and said: "Ayao, I admit, I thought about letting her go out on her own, after all, she has seen the vastness of this world since she was a child, how can I have the heart to let her be like an ordinary woman, trapped in the inner house in the future, How can a lifetime go by like this? So, I hope she can choose the life she wants, but who would have thought that she would start to toss about it now?"

Yang Yao suddenly fell silent. Not all women are as lucky as her. In fact, even if the vast majority of women have received a good education, after they get married, they can only be husband and wife, and they will never be the same as they were when they were young girls. scene.It is said that the princesses of the Tang Dynasty are so tough, but if you really want to count the number of those princesses, there are still a few princesses who really live a relatively wanton life. Too many differences.

Yang Yao thought that the daughter who was blooming wantonly at home would have to be honest and have children after she got married. At most, she would be able to live a relaxed life in the first few years of marriage, and then she would be like an ordinary lady. All the days in the house were like that, and suddenly fell silent.At her age, she has seen a lot of things. Although she is a bright pearl, her future husband will have a certain status no matter what. This is a shame. After all, for them, a man is the master of the family and has to bear the responsibility of supporting the family. If he can't even do this, then the man's face will be lost.Fortunately, there are more opportunities in Minyue now. People with a little money can always buy some properties, so that the women in the family do not need to sell their labor. In other words, they only need to look at the account books at home and check the accounts. Worrying too much about making a living.

Of course, no matter whether it is the lower class or the middle and upper classes, women seem to have a certain status, but they have never been able to do whatever they want and truly control their own destiny. Even Li Yue, who focuses on improving women's rights, cannot really treat women here. All households are treated equally, and it is impossible for female households to be truly equal to male household heads in all aspects.

From elementary school, Mingzhu learned the same knowledge as a man, and even learned more and more extensively. How could it be possible to turn a small eagle that has seen the vast sky into a domesticated bird?

Thinking of this, Yang Yao couldn't help but sighed, and muttered: "How can she get married with such a temperament!"

Li Yue said disapprovingly: "What are you afraid of, the worst thing is to recruit a son-in-law at home!"

Not long after, there was another news that Mingzhu would really do something big. She arrived at a big island in Nanyang, and Li Yue didn't know where it was in later generations, so she directly fought with the local aborigines. He forced those natives to flee in embarrassment, and directly erected a stone tablet on that island, indicating that the surname here will be Li from now on!

Naturally, those natives would not be happy for her to just occupy the place like this. In other words, they targeted this group of female soldiers. No matter in the relatively primitive tribal era or in the future, women are very precious resources. These indigenous tribes Inside, the leader and some warriors occupy most of the female resources, and most of the rest can only play bachelors.At the same time, compared with those black and thin tribal women, although Mingzhu and her group are also darker because of military training, compared with other official women who seldom go out, compared with these tribal women Compared with women, they still have a lot of white clothes, and they are well-nourished and well-developed. In this era, they also belong to the type that is more feminine. In other words, in the mainstream aesthetics of this era, they are typically strong and fertile Maybe the middle and upper class look down on such women, but the middle and lower classes are very welcome to such women.After seeing it, the men of these tribes were naturally envious, so they harassed them a few times, but unfortunately, they all failed, and they lost a lot.

Among other things, Mingzhu's army has always been trained according to relatively strict training methods, and there are certain precedents for sentry warnings. Although these natives are not troubled by night blindness because of their eating habits, they still , Their concealment and siege methods, which are still at the level of primitive tribe hunting, are very clumsy for these female soldiers. If they are not familiar with the terrain, they can run fast in the mountains and forests, and they don't know how much they will lose!

Even so, after a few times, these natives no longer dared to continue to play tricks on this group of strange women, and even retreated a lot into the forest to prevent being caught.

Mingzhu was thinking about finding someone to investigate the situation in the forest, so that she could wipe out all the natives, and the people sent by Li Yue caught up.

"Princess, the area of ​​this big island is larger than Yizhou Island. What the princess met before was just one of the natives. Even if they are solved, there are more. If the princess really wants to conquer Here, it can't be solved in a short time. The king and queen have been worried about the princess. Even if the princess has a heart, she should first obtain the consent of the king and queen!" The leader of the team is called Lu Ran, who was born in Shanyue, but he This tribe belonged to the very early Sinicization. Not long after Li Yue arrived in Quanzhou, their whole tribe went down the mountain. Lu Ran first went out to hunt whales, and then was selected to become a member of the Minyue Navy. When he was transferred to Ryukyu, he was the middle and upper-level general in the navy.

Lu Ran did not expect that Princess Mingzhu, who in the eyes of many people used to be a messy spender, would actually make a career. If this is just a relatively small island, then Mingzhu's operation like this is really a big deal. It won't take long to win it. After all, these natives only use wooden sticks and ordinary stone tools, and they haven't lit up the skill points for metal smelting. As long as they advance steadily according to tactics, these natives will have nowhere to escape.

But the problem is that this is a very large island, not only a tribe, but also a large area of ​​mountains and forests, and the geographical situation here is not clear to everyone, so there are not enough people in Mingzhu, so we still have to come from Minyue Even Ryukyu sent a group of people here to educate the aborigines and develop resources at the same time. After decades, the surname was changed here!
