- After hearing the news from Li Xiang, the people of Amami Island who were in grief finally regained a little energy and no longer looked so miserable.
Of course, even if this is the case, everyone is still very sad.
The death of a loved one is something that no one can feel comfortable with.
But no matter what, what Li Xiang said can be considered a good thing.
Finally, under Li Xiang¡¯s arrangement, everyone left the dock and returned home. After tidying up a little, they boarded the imperial warship.
Although it is impossible to recover from the pain of losing their loved ones, they see hope that they can live a better life.
Two hundred acres of fertile farmland.
Such a large amount of land is not a small amount.
In the Ming Dynasty, he could definitely be regarded as an out-and-out small landowner.
Although they all have some money on hand, they can buy as much land or even more if they want to.
But the problem is that their status means that if they want to live a normal life in the Ming Dynasty, they will have to be exploited.
In the end, God knows how much money they have left.
Even, this is not the scariest thing.
What scares and worries them the most is that those guys who eat people without spitting out their bones use blunt knives to torture them and bleed them bit by bit.
Especially Zheng Zhilong has now taken refuge in the imperial court.
When this guy twists his mouth, they will have no way to survive.
So, it¡¯s not that they don¡¯t want to go back to the Ming Dynasty, but the situation forces them to not go back.
But when you get to America, you don¡¯t have to worry about this problem.
After they left, they were given two hundred acres of land for free.
The requirement is just to let them live their duties and be good citizens with property.
For the people of Amami Island who are tired of the pirate life, they simply want to live such a life.
With 200 acres of land, who would live a pirate life without today or tomorrow?
When the land is secured, they will be able to live a leisurely life as landlords.
What's more, I heard that black Kunlun slaves can be purchased in the Song Empire. These black guys are strong and good at work.
When the time comes, they won¡¯t even have to work in the fields themselves, they will just force these Kunlun slaves to do it.
"It seems like why they do this as pirates, isn't it to live a stable life?"
Therefore, everyone is full of expectations for going to America.
In a very short period of time, everyone on Amami Island was cleared.
In fact, they didn¡¯t have anything too valuable to take away on the island. Everyone basically took cash and banknotes stored at the Nagasaki Bank. As for the simple furniture and other things on the island, who would bring those things.
¡°And Boss Li also said that the relatives of the brothers who died in this naval battle will also receive a large amount of settlement allowance. This money was paid by Li Xiang himself, which was enough for them to live a stable life in the Song Empire after they went to the Song Empire in America.
¡°This man, after he gained hope, his whole spirit became different.
Although everyone has not completely recovered from the loss of their relatives and companions, many people began to talk to each other in low voices during the voyage to Nagasaki.
Most of the content of their conversation was about the Song Empire in America.
Yes, they are full of hope and longing for the Song Empire. But after all, they are not really familiar with everything there, so it is normal to feel a little uneasy.
Fortunately, Mrs. Wang and Liu Dashen had previously told about the Americas, so everyone would not be hesitant and afraid of the Americas.
Amami Island has now become deserted and has become a deserted island.
This is only temporary. The geographical advantage of Amami Island is still here, so Li Xiang will definitely set up a naval base here in the future, but Li Xiang has not yet considered what will happen after that time.
It was already midnight when Li Xiang took the survivors to Nagasaki.
After a period of time, the people on the Amami Islands on the ship were all affected by fatigue.
So, when midnight came, they all fell asleep.
There are many wounded among them, and they have been properly accommodated.
This is also due to the fact that the Song Empire has many special medicines. Otherwise, according to the medical level of this era, at least 80% of the wounded in naval battles would not survive.
Li Xiang was not idle at this time. He patrolled back and forth on the warship where he was, and went to check on the wounded from time to time.
When he saw the Song Empire¡¯s naval medical staff skillfully treating the wounded, he felt relieved.
When the people of Amami Island first boarded the Imperial battleship, they were all shocked by the size of the Imperial battleship and the number of artillery.
They had no idea that the empire's warships could actually carry so many artillery pieces, and the muzzles of these artillery pieces were quite small.
I don¡¯t know how the Song Empire managed to make its warships so strong.
Just seeing the warships of the Song Empire made the people on Amami Island suddenly have many fantasies about the Song Empire.
Their reaction was actually no different from Li Xiang¡¯s a few days ago.
At that time, after Li Xiang saw the warships of the Song Empire in Nagasaki Port, his reaction was similar to that of these brothers.
A kerosene lamp was lit on the warship, covered with a cover and hung on the pole of the warship, among other places.
So even though we were sailing on the sea at midnight, it was not dark at all on the ship.
Li Xiang came to the deck wearing a thick leather cloak and looked up at the starry sky.
"Uncle, everything has been settled now. There should be nothing wrong with us following the Song Empire from now on." As Li Xiang's nephew, Yang Biao was inseparable. "Although the imperial warships did not fight for too long in today's naval battle, the power they displayed already impressed me."
Li Xiang withdrew his gaze and nodded slowly.
"Yes, hearing is false and seeing is believing. Today I have thoroughly experienced the power of the Song Empire's warships." Li Xiang also fully agreed with what his nephew said. He was on the warship at that time and experienced firsthand the scene of imperial warships ramming and firing volleys of artillery at the enemy.
Those enemy ships hit by artillery were basically destroyed after one round of shelling.
Such power cannot be achieved even by the Southern Barbarians he knows.
"My uncle will be the naval admiral of Kyushu in the future. There will definitely be many warships like this. Aren't those ships all ours by then? Then we won't have to worry about Zheng Zhilong."
Yang Biao whispered to Li Xiang.
Yes, as long as there are a hundred such warships, he can roam the eastern coast.
At that time, Zheng Zhilong will be nothing.
"Biaozi, uncle told you something tonight that you must remember, otherwise you will endanger yourself if you make a mistake, and it will also implicate me."
When she noticed that her nephew was a little distracted at this time, Li Xiang felt that she should talk to him properly.
Because Li Xiang heard something from his nephew's words, it seemed that he felt that those imperial warships would belong to him in the future.
This idea is very wrong.
If he doesn¡¯t change Yang Biao¡¯s concept and give him a good reminder.
¡°I don¡¯t know when in the future, Yang Biao will make a big mistake.
You know, they are not free pirates now.
Now they have taken refuge in the Song Empire, that is, they have taken refuge in the Crown Prince.
To put it nicely, I found a supporter to make my life more comfortable, and the pressure was transferred to the crown prince, letting him carry it.
But if you want to put it in a bad tone, it means that they have already made others a dog.
This person should consider certain things no matter where he is, and he should be very clear about what he should do.
Li Xiang, who has been used to big winds and waves and has a lot of experience, is very clear about her positioning.
However, it is obvious that Yang Biao does not seem to have such an awareness yet.
This is very dangerous for him.
And if you don¡¯t pay attention, it is very likely to break out in the future, and you will suffer as well.
Li Xiang is old and he just wants to live a stable life.
He doesn¡¯t want to continue living that exciting life.
At his age, it is actually normal to have such thoughts.
But Yang Biao is young.
He has ambition and drive, which are originally good things.
If you don¡¯t have ambition and drive as a pirate, you will end up being the meat in someone else¡¯s bowl sooner or later.
The problem is, they are no longer pirates.
Therefore, ambition must be put away and turned into self-motivation.
It ¡¯s only a bit of convergence. Otherwise, it will easily offend people.
"Uncle, if you have anything to say, just say it."
When Yang Biao saw his uncle's serious face, he also put away his playful smile and became serious.
"Biaozi, I am your biological uncle. Your mother died early. After entrusting you to me, I must ensure your safety."
Li Xiang looked at Yang Biao and said seriously with an extremely solemn tone and attitude.
"What I want to say to you is that from today on, you have to put away your banditry. Now we are no longer pirates, but the generals of the Kyushu Navy of the Song Empire. And we all obey the crown prince. He is the leader of the army and obeys his orders."
"You may not think that I am the naval admiral of Kyushu, but to put it mildly, I am someone else's dog. And it is our job to be dogs, so we must recognize this reality."
Li Xiang¡¯s words were a bit unpleasant to hear.
So Yang Biao wants to refute.
However, Yang Biao just opened his mouth and before he spoke, he was interrupted by Li Xiang raising his hand.
"Don't refute me, just think about it carefully later." Li Xiang's expression was very serious. When Yang Biao saw his uncle like this, he swallowed back what he wanted to say.
"His Highness has said that ships will be transferred from America to supplement the strength of the Kyushu Navy, but you must also recognize the reality that those warships are not our personal ones, but the ships of the Song Empire's imperial court in America. So you must Stop saying what you just said, you must remember this."
Yes, how could the empire¡¯s warships be their private ones?
Therefore, what Yang Biao said just now can easily make people think wrongly.
????????????????????????????????????????????????? If someone with intentions uses this as a quarrel, it will cause big trouble.
As a veteran of the Jianghu world, Li Xiang knows the importance of this sentence.
"You have to recognize your identity and status, and think twice before you speak or do anything in the future. You must remember that the trouble caused by your actions is not just yours alone, it will also affect those around you. There are many people, relatives, friends and brothers."
These are all good words that Li Xiang said, and they can be said to be well-intentioned.
However, as for whether Yang Biao can listen, only God knows.
Fortunately, Li Xiang knew his nephew well, and he knew that Yang Biao was not the kind of person who would not listen to advice.
This is also one of Yang Biao¡¯s biggest advantages.
And the most important meaning of what Li Xiang said to Yang Biao today is that he wants his nephew to understand the current situation and position himself in the future to do things and speak.
In this way, a lot of trouble can be avoided.
Being as smart as Yang Biao, after listening to what his uncle said, he filtered these words in his mind. Immediately, he woke up.
¡°Isn¡¯t that right? What I just said was very taboo.
They are no longer pirates.
¡° Moreover, my uncle¡¯s fleet will also be disbanded in the future. Those old brothers who are willing to join the navy will join and they will be given a position based on their abilities.
If you don¡¯t want to join, then go to America and become a landlord in the Song Empire.
As for the future navy, it is impossible for my uncle to be as arrogant as he is now and have the final say in everything.
Their identity will be the Song Empire¡¯s naval generals stationed in Kyushu, and they will no longer be free pirates.
???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????beating me,???????????????????????????????????????????????.
Since they have embarked on this path, they will no longer be able to think like pirates when thinking about problems in the future.
? ? ? ? ? ?Otherwise, it will cause trouble.
After thinking about this, Yang Biao suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.
"Thank you uncle for the advice, I understand. I will know what to do in the future, and I will also correct my mentality and position so that I will not cause trouble to everyone, especially you."
"Do you really understand?"
Li Xiang asked seriously again.
Yang Biao nodded solemnly: "I really understand. Now IWe are all naval generals of the Song Dynasty, and we are paid people. The navy belongs to the court, not to us. When we speak and do things, we have to think on the side of the court instead of thinking about ourselves"
Li Xiang nodded with satisfaction while listening to what her nephew Yang Biao said.
It seems that he really understands.
Li Xiang felt relieved.
Immediately, Li Xiang felt that after arriving in Nagasaki, he needed to give a good speech to all the old brothers who wanted to join the Navy. His nephew Yang Biao had such an idea, didn't others?
You have to explain yourself clearly, otherwise it will make it difficult for everyone else in the future.
Li Xiang made a decision in her heart (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!) - Didn't finish reading?
