    More than 300,000 people who fled from various places gathered outside the city of Fuzhou. Among them, there were many wealthy households who came later and had no way to enter the city and had to live outside the city.  In this way, they also feel more at ease staying here.

    ? Fujian is really poor and poor. If the land is barren, even if the weather is good, you can barely fill your stomach. If you want to live a good life, the only way is to go to sea.  However, after the Ming court banned the sea, even larger fishing boats were not allowed to enter the sea.

    Except for some scholars who have studied and dreamed of getting ahead through the imperial examinations, ordinary people had no choice but to take risks in maritime business, running around Southeast Asia, Luzon, Ryukyu, and Japan, but this violated the laws of the court.  The number of bandits gradually increased.

    The Japanese pirates sweeping across the border of Fujian is already scary, and these local bandits took advantage of the paralysis of the government to loot and kidnap people everywhere, scaring these wealthy gentry and businessmen into panic all day long, and now they can only sleep peacefully by fleeing to the city of Fuzhou.

    I don't want the Chief Minister of Fujian not to allow them to enter the city, but the tax collectors are so diligent that they send some tax collectors out of the city every day to collect "wartime tax" from them, but they don't see his soldiers winning a battle, and the people secretly curse  .

    At this time, the city of Fuzhou is still peaceful, with green willows lined up and cicadas singing low.  Although the jurisdiction is not stable, Japanese pirates are rampant, thieves and robbers are rampant, and the people are displaced, it is miserable, but this street where high-ranking officials and gentry gather is still full of singing and dancing.

    The rich and powerful who came and went in chariots, horses or sedan chairs still shuttled through the streets and alleys. Lazy soldiers with big guns circled the chief ministerĄŻs office.  The melodious low singing and the sound of silk and bamboo came from inside.

    Ruan Dawen sat behind a short table, holding a wine cup inlaid with fine porcelain and gold, sipping wine contentedly, while six girls with beautiful figures and gorgeous clothes were dancing in the hall amidst the sound of singing and dancing.

    The patrol envoy Zhai Qingshan was attracted by their graceful dancing postures, he watched for a long time before he came to his senses, quickly raised his wine glass to Ruan Dawen, and said with a smile: "Master Ruan, please."

    "Hehe, Lord Zhai, Lord Zhou, and Lord Wang, come and have a drink together." Ruan Dawen also happily raised his glass and persuaded them to drink.  Ruan Dawen was in his early forties, with a slender figure, a face like a crown jade, and three beards under his chin, his appearance was handsome and elegant.

    Beside him, a beautiful woman leaned on his shoulder and whispered something. Ruan Dawen drank half of the wine in a sip, and spit it out with a "poof", throwing himself up and down with joy.

    He twisted the woman's buttocks covered by the light and silky blouse, and said with a smile: "Go, go, the master still wants to have a drink with a few adults."

    The beautiful woman giggled, stood up and bowed to Zhai Qingshan and the others, and quietly retreated.  Ruan Dawen waved his hand, and the six singers stopped singing and dancing immediately, and walked backwards out of the hall with their sleeves swished.

    Ruan Dawen said: "My lords, our Fuzhou city has escaped from this catastrophe, but the Japanese are always causing chaos in our Fujian border. As the highest military and political officials in Fujian, you and I have to explain to Governor Yang, and we will never arrive.  Did they leave after grabbing enough? Master Zhou has a clever plan?"

    Zhou Hong is the admiral of the Fujian Navy and the leader of the Three Guards Army. The Fujian military regards him as the chief, but this person is terrified of the Japanese pirates.  Confronting the Japanese pirates, Ruan Dawen's ingenious plan of "send a boat and money to buy stability" came from this Zhou Lang.

    Seeing Ruan Dawen asked about this matter, Zhou Hong frowned, and said slowly: "My lord, the Japanese pirates have shown signs of moving to Guangdong and Guangxi, and they have been struggling to gain a foothold from north to south. With the six warships we sent, they have  It means to go to Yizhou or Mancijia to gain a foothold, I believe I will leave here soon."

    Ruan Dawen didn't know anything about military affairs, so he felt relieved after hearing this, and sighed: "That's good, the six warships that just left the factory, including the guns, were given to the Japanese. The official document I sent to the Governor's Office said that our army suffered heavy casualties  , the six warships were all destroyed, but our army fought fiercely with the Japanese pirates and vowed not to retreat. Every inch of land will be contested, and the Japanese pirates will also suffer heavy losses. If the Japanese pirates do not leave, the battle reports will continue to be sent to Suzhou, and it will be revealed."

    Zhou Hong originally knew that the Japanese pirates were really targeting Yizhou and Mancijia, intending to find a stable territory, but after hearing Ruan Dawen's solemnity, he was not at ease.

    Zhou Hongqiang said with a smile: "Don't worry, my lord. I don't think they have anything to snatch from the poor mountains and rivers in Fujian. They can't stand in the north. It is inevitable to continue south".

    Just as he said this, a voice shouted from outside the hall: "Report! My lord, Ruan San'er is back!"

    Zhou Hong lived immediatelyYang Ling nodded, reined in his horse and looked in the direction Wang He was pointing at, secretly said: "Don't think so much, how can there be so much reason to say? I'm going to Fuzhou to kill people now, but if I don't kill people, it will be the world's intolerance.  Who can explain it clearly?"
