The sun never sets in the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 404
Master Huang left arrogantly, riding on a war elephant and waving goodbye to Xialiao City, never taking away a cloud, but definitely taking away carts of gold and beauties.

Riding war elephants is absolutely safe and secure, because there are two Han descendants who will serve the elephants, and they volunteered to be elephant slaves for Master Huang.

When the Ming army came, there were more than 1 people, and when they returned, the number of troops was doubled. Rao, the speed was much faster, because the route was already familiar, and there were many more large animals and labor.

Those women climbing mountains and wading are no worse than Heihu and the others, and even stronger than the majestic Mongolians on horseback.

Since deciding to bring these women home, the private soldiers of Huang's family stopped treating them as enemies, let them eat the same food and sleep in the same tent, and gave each of them several sets of clothes.

The private soldiers of the Huang family took the initiative to lead a few women and teach them the language and the simplest Chinese characters.

Women in this country have even less status. They have to serve men all day long. They are one of the hardest-working women.

They met the amiable private soldiers of the Huang family, and gained respect, and their conflicts in food and clothing gradually disappeared.

The Huang family has strict discipline, and will not do such beastly things as insulting women, and Huang Sheng doesn't care what happens when the hot-blooded youth takes a few women to study.

I hope your love is harmless, as long as it is not dereliction of duty when on duty, but the soldiers all know that enough is enough, because they are afraid that the stain of indiscretion will be left from now on, which will affect their promotion in the future.

The head of the family often gives lectures, asking everyone to have patience and to be able to control their desires. He has repeatedly emphasized that people who can't even manage their own subordinates can hardly manage thousands of troops.

Along the way, more than a dozen war elephants became the means of transportation for the officers to take turns rushing to ride, and everyone felt fresh.

Heihu rode the war elephant a few times and was deeply moved. He said loudly to Huang Sheng: "My lord, if two musketeers of our army hid in the rattan baskets on the back of the elephant and shot, they would be invincible against the Jiannu cavalry. Slaves riding war horses can’t reach the warriors in the rattan basket, and war elephants will actively attack Jiannu war horses with ivory.”

Huang Sheng laughed loudly and said, "Heihu is right. If Jiannu hit Yunnan and Guangxi, we will do it to them."

Heihu was not stupid, he immediately understood what the Patriarch meant, and blushed with embarrassment.

Huang Dongshan said with a smile: "Hit Yunnan and Guangxi? Jiannu has this ability? Our Huang family will flatten Liaodong in a few years. How can we let Jiannu continue to dance."

Heihu laughed and said: "I'm just making an idea. Don't I know that Jiannu's strength will soon be inferior to that of our Huang family."

Huang Dongshan was in a good mood for a while, and sang loudly: "Da Ming, Da Ming, how many heroes and heroes have come to admire you..."

Soon the whole army was singing, and the heroic singing "Great Ming" echoed in the valley.

The [-] Guangnan soldiers and the [-] laborers served the Ming army with all their heart and soul when they returned home. When camping at night, they all competed to wash their feet and serve the Ming army soldiers with a humble look on their faces.

Mr. Huang Sheng, who had received too many benefits, did not treat these people badly. On the spot, everyone rewarded Wenyin Er and two people, and let the Han people of Lancang Kingdom send them to them one by one.

Two taels of silver can buy more than five shi of rice in Guangnan Kingdom, which can support a family for more than half a year. The [-] Guangnan soldiers and civilians kowtowed one by one, and then they became more motivated and the service was more thoughtful.

Seeing that the Guangnan people who often bully them are so awed by the army of the motherland, the Han descendants of the Lancang country feel the strength of the motherland. They are proud of each of them, and they also imitate the Ming army to keep their waists straight.

The army returned to Feifu. Since there were thousands of large animals to be transshipped, Huang's army set up camp near the port of Feifu. Huang Mingdao first took the "Liaodong" with some warships and cargo ships for a trip. Lingao was only [-] meters away from Feifu. In Yu Haili, four or five days is enough to go back and forth.

Lingao has an endless demand for large livestock in large-scale farming and building factories, and of course we can't give up the ones we get.

Hu Mingshan and Ruan Fukang accompanied the lord to visit Huang Sheng's flagship. The lord of Guangnan carefully prepared the tribute items again, and the tone of the letter of credence was more humble. At Huang Sheng's request, they never mentioned the matter of taking down Liaocheng by troops.

Because Ruan Fuyuan learned that this time it was completely private work done by Daming Master Huang without telling the court.The Lancang Kingdom was once a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty that paid tribute every year, and the Ming Dynasty would never admit that it had attacked Xialiao City.

Ruan Fuyuan saw that a single official of the Ming Dynasty had the terrifying power to point out the country, so what about the entire Ming Dynasty?

He no longer dared to imagine how powerful Daming should be, so he swore to show his loyalty in front of Huang Sheng, saying that he would be loyal to Daming from generation to generation.

Huang Sheng had a good talk with the Guangnan ruler, so he was left to attend the dinner, and exchanged cups with the officials of the Guangnan Kingdom.

Huang Sheng didn't think that any vassal state would be loyal at all. Whether they would submit or not depended on how strong Ming was. As long as Daming was strong enough, they couldn't help but refuse to submit.

The vast Deming fleet returned north after being warmly welcomed by the people of Guangnan and Western merchants. The ship was loaded with most of the wealth that was looted from a wealthy city, worth more than 50 taels of gold, including more than [-] taels of spot gold.

After a day and a half of sailing, the fleet arrived at the completed Lingao Port.

This time, the Ma San Musketeer Bai Zong who stayed behind in Lingao will be brought back, and only some officers will be left to enrich the grassroots forces.

Lingao has now trained a chief musketeer, a chief cavalry, and cold weapon infantry.

Grass-roots officers and civil officers have been added to Lingao several times in a row. There are now more than [-] village braves in training there.

Zhou Dazhuang, a musketeer officer who was born as a boy tracker, took over Ma San's position as the commander of the inspection department's soldiers. Huang Sheng didn't care that the military attache of the Ming inspection department was only a ninth-rank military officer, and gave Zhou Dazhuang Huang Jiazheng soldiers a sixth-rank military officer treatment.

Huang Sheng gave Ge Chengjie a mission to acquire, breed and train hounds in large numbers. This task is not difficult. In this era, almost all hunters bring hounds to hunt. It is not complicated to spend money and food to buy good hounds to breed.

Cats three dogs four means that cats can give birth to kittens in three months, and dogs only need four months. A litter of three, four, seven or eight is very likely, so their reproduction speed is amazing.

Huang Sheng needs a large number of hounds to prepare for the restoration of Cochin. With Hainan Island as a springboard, he will get quite convenient logistical support for attacking from the sea, which is much more convenient than trekking from the Shiwanda Mountains in Guangxi.

The long and narrow land of Dai Viet is their shortcoming, while the unrivaled navy of the Huang family is a huge advantage.Use your own strengths to attack the other's weaknesses, and it will not be too long before the restoration of Tujiaozhi.

The Huang family needed a good place where they could grow three crops a year to raise the people, so they had no choice but to feel sorry for the country of Dayue.

Because of the lessons learned from the past, Da Ming just couldn't stand the monkey-like army of the Dayue Kingdom jumping around and fighting guerrillas. The consumption was too much and the loss was not worth the loss, so he finally gave up on Annan.

The Huang family had to pull nets and fill pits one by one to get this place. Those who dared to come out to fight guerrillas would be wiped out immediately, and they would hide in underground caves, and use hounds to search out the cave entrances and fill them directly, so that they could never come out again, just like the US military. It is the same as destroying the Japanese army hiding in the underground fortifications in Okinawa.

In order to ensure that Hainan Island, which has been successfully infiltrated, will eventually become one of the Huang family's bases, a strong intelligence network must be established.
