Chapter 1375

"General, do you want to come and get a little more?" At this time, a voice came from the side, and as soon as the Seed Master Dao turned his head, he saw the red and black face of Ma Kui, the commander of the Jiaodong Navy, and at this moment he was striding over, holding a small copper kettle inside, and handed it to the Seed Master Dao.

The seed master raised his hand to take it, pulled out the cork and sniffed lightly, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, raised his neck and took a sip. "What a strong wine, isn't this a burning knife?"

"Ha, I know that your Northwest Frontier Army really knows this kind of good thing, yes, it is to burn knives. You Northwest men are really like this, but I didn't expect that hundreds of men in the whole ordinary would all survive hard. ”

Ma Kui smiled and nodded, turned his head, and looked at the elite of the Northwest Frontier Army who were sitting or leaning on the deck in a circle, sitting or leaning, and chatting on the deck, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

"What can I do if I don't boil? But then again, thank you sailors, oh no, it's the gadgets provided by the navy, and they really work. ”

"These things are actually from Wanhong Trading Company, whether it is the sobering oil or the ginger powder pills, they can effectively alleviate the sequelae caused by seasickness."

While the two were standing on the bow of the ship chatting, the sentry above the mainmast suddenly blew a bamboo whistle, and the news came that from the northern sea, a clipper was speeding towards this side.

It didn't take long for the master to see a three-sail clipper ship from the sea, which was actively approaching this way, and the red, yellow and blue colored flags were raised on the mast.

The clipper passed by these warships of the Great Song Jiaodong Navy, and the merchant ship's merchants greeted the sailors on the ship very warmly, and then continued to sail away.

"This is the merchant ship of my Great Song Wanhong Trading Company, this ship runs this line all the year round, and it is specially designed to deal with the towns on the Liaodong Peninsula."

"Our merchant ships of the Song Kingdom freely enter and leave the Liaodong Peninsula, don't the Liao people care?" Hearing Ma Kui's words, Seed Master Dao couldn't help but ask with some doubts.

"Those Liao people have long been rotten, those Liao soldiers, as long as you give money, they won't care about anything. Every time the merchant ship of the Wanhong Trading Company arrived at them, they would pay a good tribute to the local guards, as long as the money was sufficient, let alone trafficking goods, even if it was human trafficking, they would not care. ”

"Last time, a capital in Ningzhou, because of debts, actually found the shopkeeper of Ningzhou City of Wanhong Trading Company, and wanted to buy a few sets of iron armor that he stole from the arsenal. At that time, the little shopkeeper was taken aback. ”

"In the end, the shopkeeper had no choice but to pay off the debt for him, but in this way, the guy regarded the little shopkeeper as a good brother who talked about everything, but the most unexpected thing for this Liao army was that the little shopkeeper was a ...... from the Imperial City Division" When Ma Kui said the last sentence, his voice was so low that only the fold could be heard.

Zhi Keshi was stunned for a long time, and then shook his head with a wry smile. "It seems that Northern Liao is really rotten, and even such important armaments as armor dare to sell them......"

Even Ma Kui knew that there were people from the Imperial City Division on the Liaodong Peninsula, and it seemed that the court was already determined to win the Liaodong Peninsula. He couldn't help but feel a little more confident that he would lead the elite of the Northwest Frontier Army under his command to enter the Liaodong Peninsula and defend the Liaodong Peninsula.

After five days of floating on the sea, Zhi Keshi waited for the group to return to Dengzhou Port, and at this time, the number of ships in Dengzhou Port was almost twice as many as when they first came.

But it was Na Wanbin, the big shopkeeper of Wanhong Trading Company, who led most of the ships of Wanhong Trading Company to Dengzhou Port.

The trading company ships led by him are naturally not here to play, but will carry cement, grain, and various military supplies here, and when the time comes, they will act together with the Jiaodong Navy of the Great Song Dynasty to transport these materials to the Liaodong Peninsula in time.

In order to plant the master Dao in the shortest possible time, he can gain a firm foothold on the Liaodong Peninsula.

#####

Nearly ten days passed, and Dengzhou Wharf once again ushered in a fast boat from the Liaodong Peninsula, and soon, the people on the fast boat were taken to Ma Kui and Chongshi Dao and other Song army generals.

"General Ma, the little one is a person from the Imperial City Division, and he was ordered to come and deliver the news to the general." The man, dressed as a businessman, came to Ma Kui, saluted respectfully, and then reported.

"Just yesterday, Di Gubao led 10,000 horses and horses to appear near Kaizhou, an important town in the east of Liaoyang Prefecture, and now, Suzhou, Fuzhou, Ningzhou and Zhenhai Prefecture on the Liaodong Peninsula have sent reinforcements to Kaizhou to support."

"Now the Suzhou City Guard Xiao Ke has taken away 500 soldiers and horses, and the defenders of Suzhou City are only 500, and there are only 50 old soldiers left in Suzhou Pass."

"So little?" When a battalion commander of the Northwest Frontier Army next to him heard this number, he couldn't help grinning and his face was full of surprise. "Our North Shaanxi Road, even if it is the smallest fortress, there must be three or five hundred defenders, a state city, and there are only so many people?"

"This is natural, the population of Northern Liao in Liaodong is not much, even if it is Liaoyang Prefecture, the Taoist Prefecture of Tokyo, the population is only more than 50,000.

As for the so-called Suzhou, Ningzhou and Fuzhou, in addition to the fact that Suzhou City is surrounded by a nearly high earthen wall, the so-called Ningzhou and Fuzhou are just villages and towns with a population of one or two thousand in the Great Song Dynasty. Ma Kui sighed helplessly.

"It's a pity, Your Majesty has confessed, my Great Song Dynasty must not take the initiative to send troops to invade and occupy the cities of Liaodong, and it must be captured by the female direct tribes, and then transferred to the hands of my Great Song Dynasty. Otherwise, relying on our Jiaodong Navy, sending three or five warships to take these so-called state cities is just a snap of a finger. ”

The planter nodded as he stroked his delicate long beard. "I think it's to avoid a direct conflict with Northern Liao, at least, my Great Song can't let Northern Liao catch this excuse."

"In this way, that old boy is really ready to do it, and there is not much time left for me to prepare."

"That's right, come here, immediately send an order, let all the warships that are still maneuvering at sea return, and send someone to inform Wanhong Trading Company, and invite Wan Shopkeeper to come over and discuss important matters."

Next, the entire Dengzhou port began to become busy and noisy, and the workers and vehicles carrying various materials to and from the wharf were endless.

Whenever a sea vessel is fully loaded, it lifts its sails and leaves the dock for another ......

It took two full days of busyness to fill all the sea ships of Wanhong Trading Company. Five ships of 5,000 materials, all loaded with bags of cement.

"This kind of 5,000-material sea ship, one can carry 600,000 catties of cement, and here it carries a total of 3 million catties of cement, in addition, we also load 30,000 stone of grain, as well as nearly a million rounds of crossbow arrows, as well as all kinds of large and small strong crossbow ......" Wan Bin stood proudly on the dock and introduced to the seed master beside him.
