Tang Bohu Marries Qiuxiang

Chapter 20 The Lonely City by the Sea ([-])

When they came to a military camp under the city, many soldiers gathered here to rest, Tian San said loudly: "Everyone should be more energetic, our new General Banner has arrived!"

"I've seen adults."

"See your lord."

"I've seen adults."

……

Looking sadly at a group of demoralized soldiers, Tang Bohu said to Tian San: "Take all these people outside and I want to speak."

"Yes! My lord!" Tian San said loudly.

Standing outside the barracks, Tang Bohu looked at soldiers wearing bowler caps slowly gathering in front of him. These soldiers were in low spirits, they didn't stand upright, and their clothes were disheveled. How could these people use them to fight.

"Tian San, come here!" Tang Bohu waved and said, "How did these people become like this?"

"It's always been like this!" Tian San scratched the back of his head and said, "We've always been like this."

Looking at Tian San, Tang Bohu continued, "Don't pant and pretend to be confused with me. I've seen that the grain and grass in Chengli are sufficient, and the housing is not bad! But why are all these guys so virtuous?"

Tian San said with a smile: "My lord, in fact, we have nothing to lack, but everyone has nowhere to go and can't cheer up."

Hearing Tian San's words, Tang Bohu also understood, "Is there no money?"

"Master Mingjian!" Tian San then said: "Our salary has not been seen for three months, brothers really..."

"Where did our salary go?" Tang Bohu asked in a low voice.

Tian San also lowered his voice and said: "Your Excellency, I don't know. This is an isolated city with no reinforcements behind the sea. There are Japanese pirates in all directions. I dare not send this salary, but it says our battlefield here. The salary can’t come in, so when we withdraw the salary, it will be in our hands!”

"But you said that there is a war here, and our life is day by day! The money is gone before we get it, so brothers have nothing to worry about, at least some money to settle down, so don't worry."

Touching his nose vigorously, Tang Bohu said in a low voice, "Don't panic, it's not a big problem."

"My lord!" Tian San continued, "This is a big problem."

"I'll figure out how to deal with the money!" Tang Bohu said in a low voice.

"That's a good relationship!" Hearing Yinzi Tiansan said with a smile: "My lord, why don't you... talk to the big guy?"

Tang Bohu took a step forward and said to everyone: "Everyone, I know what you are thinking. If I stay in this rotten place for one more day, I will feel exhausted. How can I leave? Can I go back in a fair and honest way?" , there is only one way, and that is to beat those Japanese pirates back!"

"Everyone was raised by their mothers and fathers, and no one wants to waste their lives in vain! You are fighting in the front day after day, asking for money but not money, and reinforcements without reinforcements! What you eat is cold steamed buns, and the wild vegetables you drink are bland. Tang, if I were you, I wouldn't want to fight this kind of battle."

Said that Jin Yiwei standing in front of Tang Bohu nodded and commented one after another, looking at the atmosphere Tang Bohu knew in his heart that the heat was almost ready.

Then he said: "The Japanese pirates took advantage of our Ming Dynasty's sea ban, and plundered our Daming sea area, robbing our women in the Central Plains, robbing our Central Plains food, and robbing our Central Plains people's money! They are the only ones to rob." Us? No reason!"

"My lord!" Tian San came up and said, "I heard that these pirates robbed a boat a few days ago. It is said that they secretly went overseas to do business. When the boat came back, it was intercepted by the pirates. It is said that there were 8000 taels of silver! Now the boat is still on the seashore."

Tang Bohu nodded knowingly to Tian San and said: "Brothers, the 8000 taels of vain is right in front of you, do you want it or not!"

"Think!" Hundreds of Jin Yiwei wearing round hats echoed loudly.

"Okay!" Tang Bohu went on to say: "As long as you snatch the money, I, Tang Bohu, don't take any money, it's all brothers' money!"

"Thank you sir!"

"Thank you sir!"

"Swear allegiance to the Lord!"

……

Hundreds of people were flattering, and they almost wanted to worship Tang Bohu as their reborn parents.

"Come with me!" Tang Bohu took Tian San away, and came to his camp to let Tian San.

"This beach really sounds like a boat carrying 8000 taels of silver?"

Tian San continued: "That day, a group of people escaped from the sea. They are Jiangnan people who went to sea to do business. It was not easy for the officials to learn the whereabouts of this young man from their mouths."

"How is that group now?" Tang Bohu asked further.

Tian San: "These people have been taken down by the government because they went out to sea to do business without permission and violated the laws of Ming Dynasty!"

"Does anyone else know about this besides you?" Tang Bohu continued to ask, "They only told you?"

Tian San went on to say: "Many people must know about this matter, but because of the rampant Japanese pirates here and the surveillance of our Jin Yiwei, they dare not take it back by hand, but the officials will go there every night to check, and the boat is still there. It docked at that place, but there are a large number of Japanese pirates gathered there, and we may not be able to take it with this little manpower."

Jin Yiwei is also a good springboard to gain power, power is a very important thing in this era!The experience of these days made him understand the power of power. King Ning could kill himself if he disagreed with him, and the Jiangnan officialdom could seal his imperial examination path.

Asking Tian San to leave, Tang Bohu smoked on his own.

"What are you thinking about?" Qiuxiang walked into Tang Bohu's room and asked softly.

After receiving the tea from Qiuxiang, Tang Bohu continued, "If one day I become a notorious evil official, will you still follow me?"

Sitting in front of Tang Bohu, Qiu Xiang dressed in Jinyiwei's clothes and said in men's clothing: "I know you are a good person, and you also want to be a good person. To become a Jinyiwei, you are forced to take this road! How bitter is your heart? I can see clearly that power is just a means for you to live, and the real way to live in your heart is the Peach Blossom Island."

"Thank you, Qiuxiang!" Tang Bohu smoked a cigarette, and the smoke covered his expression, "Chen Guang gave me a chance, but it was a narrow escape! If I survive, I will have the confidence to stand in Jinyiwei !Of course I will die if I fail."

"Don't say that." Qiuxiang looked at Tang Bohu distressedly, "You have no retreat now! From the moment Washington came out with you, I have no retreat either!"

"In order to be able to marry you, and to live a better life, I will make those who manipulate my life look good!" Tang Bohu stubbed out the cigarette in his hand and said again: "I, Tang Bohu, have made up my mind on this road of no return."
