The Hailing Pier in Fuzhou began martial law here two days ago. All merchant ships received orders to leave the port and park on the sea about ten miles away from the port. The Hailing people are no longer surprised by this, because whenever the huge fleet of the Dingzhou Navy returned, Hailing would do such a move.

However, this time the noise was a bit loud, and the level of alert increased significantly. After many Hailing people saw their parents, Xu Yunfeng, also appeared in Hailing and inspected the defense measures of Hailing Port overnight, everyone finally understood something. The one who could make Fuzhou move so vigorously must not be someone else, but the general must be coming to Hailing Port.

Then there was a rumor coming, and the Hailing people suddenly realized that it was the army that was covering the retreating retreat in Shenzhou. They heard that the battle was extremely fierce, and tens of thousands of troops survived, and in the end only a few thousand people survived. The general came here to welcome these heroes home.

Hailing people also wanted to see these warriors. Although the port was under martial law and could not enter, it did not prevent them from crossing the sea and showing their magical powers. Therefore, the slightly higher restaurants around Hailing Port became excellent viewing places, and prices immediately soared, and it was still difficult to find a ticket.

At this time, the minds of the merchants appeared. The merchant ships anchored outside the port keenly discovered this business opportunity and immediately hung up signs. One person could go to their ships for ten taels of silver. Although it was a bit vague to see the dock on their ships, the Dingzhou Navy had to pass by them when entering the port, and on their ships, they could get closer to these heroes who returned home.

In one day, countless small boats shuttled back and forth from the coast of Fuzhou, transporting the crowds onto the merchant ships. The owners of the merchant ships smiled so hard that they couldn't close their mouths. This was a complete surprise. They were all big ships going to sea, usually big ships of three thousand materials, and wealthy merchants also built 5,000 merchant ships. Although some of the goods on the ships had not had time to unload, they squeezed them. There was no problem with hundreds of people. Anyway, they didn't sail, and they just parked there, and there would be no danger. But they got thousands of taels of white silver. This was completely pure profit. The conscientious merchant ship owner would still boil some boiling water and provide a little snack. If they encountered a bad person, I'm sorry, bring these things to your own!

The weather is not good today, and it started drizzling in the morning. When it was almost noon, it became heavier. It was early spring when the rain drizzled on your body, soaking your clothes and your clothes were close to your flesh. Not to mention how uncomfortable it was, many people were even cold and their lips were blue.

But these still couldn't stop the enthusiasm of these people. They squeezed to the side of the side and looked at the sea level, causing the boat owners to be anxious and the boat was tilted to one side. Maybe there was a possibility of overturning, so they could only be anxious and commanded the sailors to move the cargo to the other side to maintain the balance of the boat.

"Here, here!" Someone suddenly shouted in surprise. Then, the calm sea suddenly boiled, and all the people on the merchant ship cheered loudly. At the sea level, several white sails suddenly appeared. As they sailed closer, they could clearly see the flag flying by the Dingzhou navy.

Amid the cheers of the people, a giant figure appeared in everyone's sight. It was the largest warship among the Dingzhou Navy. The Qiyuan ship of the 10,000-material giant was built and launched. From the Qiyuan ship to the water, every time they returned, the Hailing people had seen his huge figure many times, but when they saw him again, everyone still felt a sense of oppression. Compared with him, the three thousand-material naval ships looked like toys.

"Master General, Deng Peng and the others are here!" Xu Yunfeng walked to Li Qing and reported.

Although it was raining, Li Qing and Dingzhou officials who were standing on the dock did not have any rain gear. Instead, they let the spring rain pour over their heads and faces. Their bodies and rain flowed down Li Qing's face one by one. Li Qing was solemn and nodded, "Let's start!"

Xu Yunfeng turned around and waved his hand hard. On the dock, hundreds of large horns were blowing together. Amid the trumpet, a large ox-faced bulging drums slowly began to beat. Every time the drumstick fell, it was as if it was hit hard on everyone's hearts. The drum sound was monotonous and slow, but it made people feel like a mountain of pressure.

A heavy breath spread over the dock.

The Izumo took the lead, and the hull filled with colorful flags slowly sailed past the sea. Soldiers in brand new sailor uniforms stood with swords and distributed on both sides of the ship's side.

Behind the Izumo, four three thousand warships sailed by in rows in sequence. Whenever a warship passed by, a tremendous cheer broke out from the merchant ship.

The Qiyuan Ship slowly sailed. After seeing the shape of the ships in front and the mighty power of the sailors, everyone had greater expectations for the giant ship. Everyone stretched their necks and watched them slowly slid over to the Qiyuan Ship.

What disappointed everyone was that on the huge bottom deck of Qiyuan, there were no sailors in full dress or bright colorful flags, but what was fluttering were broken flags. Some were torn into strips of cloth and flying in the air. Although some were still intact, the flags were covered with holes, and the vast number of flags and flag poles were covered with purple-black marks.

"That's blood!" someone shouted softly. The booing on the sea gradually became smaller, and gradually, silent.

On the deck, the queue of broken flags was not neat. Some only had two or three soldiers standing behind the flags, and some dozens of them were mostly about a hundred soldiers. The most neat one was standing at the end, and the flying flag indicated that they were the White Horse Camp.

In the entire port, except for the sound of horns and drums, there is no other sound. Once and then, the monotonous drum sounds seem so heavy in the rain.

Qiyuan slowly approached the dock, and a huge springboard was built up. Li Qing and everyone's eyes immediately raised, looking at the end of the springboard.

A stretcher appeared in everyone's vision. Everyone's pupils contracted and their eyes moved with their pace. It was Chen Zeyue. He sat on the stretcher and tried hard to make his upper body more upright. Behind him, Tang Hu, Tie Bao, and Liu Yuan lined up, stepped down the springboard, and walked towards Li Qing and others.

Li Qing's lips couldn't help but tremble slightly.

"Ji Mingze teaches Chen Zeyue, the general of the camp, to report to the general!" On the stretcher, Chen Zeyue stroked his right hand and solemnly saluted Li Qing for the military salute of Dingzhou.

Li Qing sniffed his feet and stood up, returning a greeting to Chen Zeyue. Then he took a step, reached out and held Chen Zeyue's hands, "General Chen, you have suffered!" At the same time, behind Li Qing, all the Dingzhou officials, military officers, saluted military officers, while civil servants bowed with fists.

Chen Zeyue smiled and said, "I will never regret it even if I die." Li Qing held his hand and shook it hard a few times. He looked back at Xu Yunfeng, and Xu Yunfeng nodded in understanding. With a wave of his hand, a wheelchair that had been prepared by the original craftsman's camp master, Ren Ruqing, now the Minister of Works of Dingzhou, was pushed up and placed onto Li Qing's side.

Li Qing walked to Chen Zeyue's side, reached out and, in Chen Zeyue's shock, picked him up and gently placed him in a wheelchair.

"Masterman!" Chen Zeyue burst into tears.

Seeing Li Qing turn around, Tang Hu strode forward and grinned, "Master, Hu Zi is back!"

Li Qing pounded his breastplate hard, then hugged him, "I'm back home, okay!"

"Master!" Tiebao saluted with a military salute, and Li Qing patted his shoulder, "Okay, good, mature."

"Liu Yuan, the general of the White Horse Camp, has met the Grand Marshal!" Liu Yuan was also very excited at this time. This was the first time he had seen this legend of the Great Chu, the lord Li Qing of Dingzhou.

"General Liu Yuan, very good. This time, my beloved generals survived. It is entirely up to General Liu's great contribution. General Liu broke his family and destroyed his clan to serve my Dingzhou. Dingzhou will not let you down!"

"I am willing to go through fire and water for the general, and I will die!" Liu Yuan's mood at this time was simply indescribable. He knew that he had finally made it through and his previous efforts would soon receive huge rewards.

Several generals had seen Li Qing and retreated to one side. At this time, a flag appeared on the springboard. After this flag, there were only four soldiers holding the flag. One of them was walking in the front, three people stood side by side, and one in the middle was holding a stack of paper in his hand.

"The first 500 officers and soldiers of the left wing of the Dingzhou Private Guard Camp, report to the Grand Commander!" The soldiers holding the banner said loudly, and the soldiers holding the stack of paper immediately took a step forward, holding the things in their hands high above the top with both hands. Li Qing took them with both hands. The names of the 500 officers and soldiers of the left wing of the Dingzhou Private Guard Camp were recorded. Now, there are only these four people who can come back.

Another flag came stepping forward, "Five hundred officers and soldiers from the first right wing of Dingzhou's personal guard camp reported to the commander."

"The five hundred officers and soldiers from the first post of the Central Wing of Dingzhou's personal guard camp report to the commander!"

The broken flags were raised high by soldiers and walked up to the port with great strides towards Li Qing.

A soft whimper came from the crowd, and slowly, the sound became louder and louder.

Li Qingsu stood in the rain, unable to tell whether it was rain or tears on his face. He solemnly returned the salute to the soldiers one by one, and then took the heavy list in their hands.

For two full hours, all the soldiers on the Qiyuan number finally walked off the ship, and the broken flags seemed so eye-catching among the brightly flying flags at the port.

"Fuhan's flag!" Li Qing ordered in a deep voice.

The drums suddenly started to hit in a hurry. After dozens of times, they suddenly stopped and the horn sounded at the same time. At the same time, all the flags on the ships in the port and ships were flattened at almost the same time.

In the port, an official dressed in dress was held on a temporary high platform. He was the official in charge of the Heroes Hall in Dingzhou.

"Soul, come back!" he shouted loudly.

"Soul, come back!" A huge shout sounded from the port.

"Soul, come back!" A huge shout sounded from the warship.
