    It didn't take long for Feng Jian and others to receive news that officers and soldiers from three warships were transferred to the water city wall to assist in the defense.  Zhuang Yingchang laughed and said: "There is a difference between having money and not having money. Niu Liang and the other three are notoriously picky, so they are always ostracized. Now it is the others' turn to be ostracized. The three of them can finally feel proud and proud!" Cheng Yousheng joked!  He said: "Before you met the commander, you and Zhang Wentai were just as stingy as before. Now compared with these former colleagues, you finally feel different!" Feng Jian scolded Cheng Yousheng and said: "Lao Zhuang, Lao Zhang  Now he is the commander-in-chief of our prefecture's flood camp, so naturally he cannot compare with outsiders." Cheng Yousheng grinned a few times, and Zhuang Yingchang rubbed his chin and laughed a few times, not caring at all.  "If this continues, when Kong Youde's rebels really capture Dengzhou City, the Haiphong Dao King will definitely order all naval officers and soldiers to go to the city wall to assist in the defense!" Zhuang Yingchang said with enthusiasm.  He has now completely put himself on Feng Jian¡¯s side to see the problem, and the change in mentality determines his attitude towards doing things.  Feng Jian nodded and said: "This is inevitable. Kong Youde's rebel troops captured Dengzhou City. It would be strange that the coastal defense master did not order the navy officers and soldiers to help defend the city wall!" Zhang Wentai said: "The commander offered to buy Niu Liang and other three at a price.  The three of them cooperated very well with the artillery and ammunition on board the warship. They have transferred all the ammunition on board to the ten ships of our prefecture flood camp. The only weapons left on the warship are gunpowder and lead, waist knives, iron forks and other hand-to-hand weapons. " Zhuang Ying.  Chang Dao: "Not only that, breaking the ice will definitely lead to a counterattack from the Navy officers and soldiers. The three generals proposed to send the artillerymen on their warships to each Navy warship. If they encounter attacks from the Navy officers and soldiers, they can respond in time.  Assist the officers and soldiers of the state flood camp to fire back. "Cheng Yousheng said: "It seems that the money is not in vain. These three people are not bad, but their officers and soldiers may not be as good as them." Zhuang Yingchang and Zhang Wentai.  He glanced at it and said with a smile: "Cheng Zi, you don't understand. Our navy always has its own strategy to appease the officers and soldiers under its command. Since they dare to propose this strategy, they must be well-informed. Besides, the gunners they sent were scattered to various locations.  "This warship will definitely not cause any unexpected consequences." Feng Jian mused: "You can let the three commanders secretly dispatch the artillerymen of the warship to the artillery station of Zhouxun Camp, and distribute the manpower first so that they can get familiar with each other.  "Let's avoid being in a hurry when taking action." Zhuang Yingchang hurriedly bowed and said: "I will go and convey it now." Feng Jian said: "The people in the navy camp are very messy, so be careful when talking and doing things."  Accident." Zhuang Yingchang bowed and left.  On the ninth day of the first lunar month of the fifth year of Chongzhen, at the foothills of Fushan Mountain and close to the beach, the military port wharf under construction in Huluyan was officially completed. A 100-foot-long breakwater extended from the shore into the sea to block the invasion of the military port wharf by waves.  The sea water in this era is very clear. When the sea is calm, standing on the breakwater can clearly see the fish, shrimp and crabs on the seabed.  There is a water city built on the shore. The water city wall is tall and towering. The entire water city was built according to the conditions of the beach there.  It is rectangular, long from east to west and wide from north to south. The water city has a circumference of three miles and ninety steps, and the city wall is three feet high.  One foot thick, the city wall is entirely made of Fushan rocks and has three gates in the east, west and north.  The south of Shuicheng faces the sea.  The entire south side of Shuicheng is open, so there is no south gate in Shuicheng.  Ships enter the military port.  Driving directly into the breakwater, there are numerous berths along Nags Head.  The road on the dock shore is completely paved with Fushan rocks, which is very convenient for the transportation of goods.  Walking along the stone-paved road into Shuicheng, there are two east-west and north-south streets built in the city as usual. There are only rows of buildings built near South Street in the city. These buildings are mainly barracks for naval officers and soldiers.  At this time, this water city named Fushan Military Port by Feng Jian has been taken over by the Zhenshan Battalion logistics force.  There are currently five thousand soldiers in the Zhenshan Camp logistics force, most of whom are young men who have failed to be selected for the Zhenshan Camp from various villages. If they follow formal training, this will also be an elite division.  According to Feng Jian's instructions, the main responsibilities of the logistics force during wartime are to maintain weapons and armor, transport grain and grass, feed and care for war horses and other logistics support tasks for the regular army of Zhenshan Camp. In peacetime, they are responsible for the construction of some important facilities of Zhenshan Camp and guarding Zhenshan Camp.  important military installation.  In the words of later generations, the logistics troops are also responsible for the responsibilities of engineers. Half of the construction tasks of the Fushan Military Port were completed by the logistics troops.  This logistics force also has food and salary benefits, which are only half of those of Zhenshan Camp soldiers. The logistics troops build various facilities and can receive certain food and salary rewards after completion. Therefore, the logistics troops are very active in building Zhenshan Camp facilities.  The chief officer of this army is Huang Fuchun, who is good at logistical support.?Feng Jian was appointed as the battalion officer of the logistics force. The logistics force also set up a supervisor. Recommended by Zheng Qing, the chief supervisor of the Zhenshan Battalion, Feng Jian agreed that Hu Dake, the former second commander of Daqingfeng, would serve as the supervisor of the logistics force.  In short, as the reserve force of Zhenshan Battalion, all military regulations and systems of the logistics force are modeled on those of the regular army of Zhenshan Battalion.  On the walls of the east, west, and north gates of Fushan Military Port, logistics soldiers stood upright on duty. There were no villages within ten miles of the east, west, and north gates, and there was only a simple road leading in and out of the three gates.  Dirt road.  The establishment of Fushan Military Port has been approved and registered by Aoshan Guard Commander Li Kuiwei, so it will not attract the attention of the government. In recent days, many businesses and ordinary people have requested to move into Shuicheng, but of course they were rejected.  Hundreds of ships that are about to be evacuated from the Dengzhou Navy will be stationed at Fushan Military Port. In order to keep it secret as much as possible, Fushan Military Port will not admit outsiders to stay now.  On the day the construction of the Fushan Military Port was completed, Huang Fuchun immediately ordered a thousand headquarters of the Zhenshan Battalion Logistics Force to enter the garrison and block all those who attempted to enter the Fushan Military Port.  The small businessmen and ordinary people who were blocked gathered outside the Fushan Military Port City. Many people began to set up stalls to trade with each other in exchange for their own income, and they seemed to want to live here forever.  The harsh sea breeze was like a knife cutting people's faces. At this time, there were several figures standing on the dock of the military port, looking at the sea in the distance.  Huang Fuchun said to Xu Yannian beside him: "Mr. Xu Qian, the weather is so cold. If Dengzhou Water City freezes, how will all the ships leave?" Xu Yannian, Huang Fuchun, Jiao Keli and others are the core figures of Zhenshan Camp.  They knew Feng Jian's plan to hijack the ship, but they didn't know the current situation in Dengzhou Shuicheng, so they were naturally worried about the commander and others.  Xu Yanchang, who had a strong body, let out a long sigh and exhaled a breath of hot breath, feeling very anxious inside.  According to intelligence, after the Dengzhou defenders were defeated and returned to the city, they began to confront the rebels. The situation may change at any time. According to the commander, the Kong Youde rebels were likely to collude with the rebels in Dengzhou City. In these two  Within a day, the inside and outside should cooperate to capture Dengzhou City.  "If the ships in Shuicheng are frozen, wouldn't it mean that even the Pingduzhou Flood Camp's own ships cannot sail away? What should the commander and the more than 3,000 soldiers under his command do?  Xu Yannian couldn't answer Huang Fuchun, and said to Jiao Keli, who was also looking at the sea next to him: "Have you ever heard of any news?" Jiao Keli nodded and said helplessly: "Dengzhou City has been snowing intermittently in recent days.  Next, the outside of the city has been surrounded by Kong Youde's rebels. The four gates of Dengzhou City are tightly closed, and spies are not allowed to detect the situation in the water city at night. Based on previous years' experience, it is a foregone conclusion that Dengzhou Water City will freeze. " Huang Fuchun was very anxious: "God is really there.  I don¡¯t know what the commander has to do to deal with it. "Xu Yannian said with a serious face: "Our Zhenshan Battalion must be prepared. If the commander is trapped in Shuicheng, Dengzhou, all the soldiers of our Zhenshan Battalion will kill Deng immediately.  Commander of the Zhou Shuicheng rescue team, Mr. Jiao Qian, you must keep the carrier pigeons flowing smoothly and don¡¯t miss anything!¡± Jiao Keli said: ¡°We have never lost contact with Dengzhou City¡¯s Ye Bushou!¡± Huang Fuchun is quite straightforward.  He said anxiously: "Since we know that the commander is trapped, we should immediately summon Zhao Shougang and Zhou Lu'er to discuss the matter of sending troops from the Zhenshan Battalion to rescue the commander." Jiao Keli touched his chin and beard and said: "If things are impossible, the commander will definitely do it.  I will not risk the safety of three thousand soldiers. I, the commander, will definitely have a solution. We might as well wait patiently. Speaking of taking ten thousand steps back, even if the commander is really trapped in Dengzhou Shuicheng, with the three thousand men under his command,  Soldiers, plus the nearly five thousand officers and soldiers of the Dengzhou Navy, it is not a problem to hold Shuicheng for four or five days. These four or five days will be enough for the Zhenshan Battalion to arrive and rescue the commander and his soldiers. " Huang Fuchun is still a little anxious.  "Then once the two sides fight, what should we do if the navy officers and soldiers in Dengzhou Shuicheng escape without fighting, or directly surrender to Kong Youde's rebels?" Jiao Keli didn't want to say more casually, so he stroked his beard and said with a smile: "You still don't believe it.  Commander? With him here, Kong Youde's rebels can't hope to break through Shuicheng in a short time. The situation in Dengzhou City is delicate at any time, and Dengzhou City may fall into the hands of the rebels at any time. It's better for us to do what the commander said! "  Xu Yannian thought back on Jiao Keli's words and felt that every word made sense. He and Huang Fuchun were unfounded worries. What kind of person the commander was, how could he fight an uncertain battle?  Huang Fuchun sighed: "Among us, there are more Lao Jingjiazi. According to what you said, it feels like it is really the case. We'd better act in accordance with the commander's previous instructions." On the ninth day of the first lunar month of the fifth year of Chongzhen, at this time  It was already time to turn on the lights, and there were seven or eight people in Fengjian's cabin in Shuicheng, Dengzhou, making the cabin small and crowded.  Cheng Yousheng glanced at Niu Liang, Zhan Yuan, and Lan ZhengThere were three of them. He had just returned from the north gate of Shuicheng. He looked quite excited: "Commander, the water gate wall and water gate winch are completely in the hands of the brothers from the guard camp. I have ordered my brothers to break open the iron gate.  The ice is so strong that all warships can leave at any time." Feng Jian pointed in the direction of Dengzhou City and said: "Now we will see when Kong Youde and Li Jiucheng take action to capture Dengzhou City, and when the rebels will capture Dengzhou City.  When to start taking action?¡±  (To be continued)
