Chapter 26: The Iron Fist of Justice
"Brother, these ships have your share. These Baekje people, really...... Alas......"
Zhang De's face was sad and heartbroken. What an ignorant Baekje person, how could they rob the boat that everyone had gathered together to give to Du Go?
Although the ship was loaded with some sugar, some silk, some pottery, some furniture......
"Tens of thousands, gone?"
Du Wei blinked, and the whole person was not good. His father is King Du Tian, these Ma Han ****, actually dare to rob their own boat?! It's incredible!
"It's not worth a lot of money, brother, don't take it to heart. Another day, the younger brother will prepare a boat for the elder brother, and the total will not be missing. β
Du Wei, who was still confused, suddenly jumped up, and the other person was thin, wearing a nail leaf and swaying with a rattle. He doesn't like to wear a stainless steel milk cover, and he can't play with the horse lance, so what he wears on his body is leaf armor. However, it is also the handiwork of the supervisor, and the son of King Du wants to be gilded, how can it be a big road goods.
"That's my moneyβ"
Du Wei yelled at Zhang De.
"Uh......"
I didn't expect Du Gou's mood to be so excited, Lao Zhang was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Brother, now that the boat has been robbed, there is really nothing you can do." In the vast sea, it is not easy to find those Baekje pirates. Moreover, it will take time for the thieves to be cleared out in Denglai. If you miss your brother's military affairs, how can your younger brother bear it? β
"! You don't have to say it! Bold Ma Han ****! How dare you rob my ship! Grab my goods! Rob me for my money! They're killing themselvesβ"
Du Gongzi hung up a six-grade errand, and there was a part-time job to appease, in short. It's all easy to say.
The so-called moisturizing things silently, in fact, is also difficult to say. Du Gou took over the sea viewing building. Don't you come to listen to the waves all day long? Besides, as a brand new landlord. Du Wei's requirements are not high, and the quality of life has improved slightly, what is this? There are some thieves who want to disrupt the rhythm of his life!
"The water village of Da Xie Island must be repaired!"
With your words, that's fine.
"It's just that the county treasury of Penglai County is overstretched, and it's really not easy. But! Since the elder brother intends to pacify the Kou, the younger brother naturally pours out his money to help, and this is the water village camp tent on Da Xie Island. It's wrapped around the little brother. β
Da Xie Island is a forward base, a transit station on Turtle Island, and Wuhu Island is used for supplies, easily crossing the Bohai Strait, cool.
Of course, Baekje is not a Mahan person, and Lao Zhang did not bother to point out Du Go's mistakes. Hybrid products like Baekje are innumerable in the interracial of the indigenous Katong Hu lineage. What Buyeongs, what Samsang, what cautious people. What the Tatars, what the Murwes, in short, the whole peninsula began to break away from the tribal union character. It was a hundred years ago.
Even now, when the "Dongfeng" fleet went to Silla to buy Silla maids, they often encountered tribal chieftains in Silla. No doubt. Although Silla has begun to imitate the Central Plains in the system, there are still traces of a large number of clans and tribes in the body.
"it. Don't thank you for your kindness, I won't treat you badly as a brother! β
Du Wei patted Zhang De's shoulder vigorously. I was very moved.
Then Du Wei went back to prepare to apply for an official document to attack, and there could be no mistakes in the procedure.
Seeing that Du Gongzi was so energetic, Qu Tuquan, who was addicted to being a timber warehouse administrator, found Zhang De with a smile: "Da Lang, good skills." β
"What is the ability of human beings?"
Zhang De smiled, "Among the Zaifu, only Du Gong is thrifty and diligent, and his family style is quite strict. Brother Berji is an upright gentleman, and Chang'an and Luoyang are all well-known. Now it's just a little spirit, a little romance. β
"Hehe, it's still good to 'moisturize things silently'."
"It's not good that the people of Baekje are always making such trouble. Once and for all, on this sea, how can such a small country be constrained. β
"Brother Du is upright, he doesn't like to take away people's beauty, but he doesn't like people to take his favor. This Baekje pirate was really blind, and he intercepted his ship in Chengsan. That's really a good ship, and there is a lot of glass. β
Qu Tuquan copied his hand, which was a pity.
"Business, there are in and out."
Zhang De smiled, then remembered something, and asked, "Second brother, did you send the timber last month to Zhanghe?" β
"I went, but I used it a little fast. Somehow, Wang Taishi made an armillary sphere and laid a wooden board to make a huge ring. It's about twenty zhang, and the armillary sphere ......"
What the heck?! Armillary sphere?! Watching the sky is not something anyone can do! If this is known to the royal family, this is simply ...... Oh, it seems to be fine. Wang Xiaotong still has a temporary position, and the armillary sphere seems to be useless...... But it's still not good, just in case, you must not let him casually observe the sky during the day, and even more so at night.
Zhang De taught people to use a sextant, taught people to find the North Star through the Big Dipper and then set it accurately, and taught people to recognize the coordinates on the latitude and longitude, all of which had great political risks.
If you are not careful, the whole family will die.
Therefore, those old helmsmen, Zhang De did not hesitate to cultivate at a high price, and they were enveloped in Furong City. At least the wives and children are in Furong City, and there are other housewives outside, and the birth of children is also arranged by China Resources, and the money that should be taken will definitely not be less.
As long as these old helmsmen don't sell him, everything is easy to say. But as long as Zhang De finds that there are signs of selling him, he will kill his whole family and leave no trouble.
"Wang Taishi is really powerful, the eight-ox crossbow on the ship is enough to put on the city wall. Awesome, really awesome. β
Qu Tuquan was still praising it, but at this time, Zhang De was pondering that after the merchant ships in Baekje were killed by him, basically the two routes in the north and south of the Yellow Sea were controlled by him alone. The ships of the Silla people are not enough to see at all, and as for the Japanese ships, they floated to the Tang Dynasty purely to see God's blessing.
"Second brother, you do me a favor."
"Why do you say this, but if you ask for something, you should do everything."
"Help me find a group of good players." After a pause, Zhang De said again, "There is a shortage of manpower in Baekje. β
Qu Tuquan was stunned: "Skilled people with bows and horses, I know a lot." At night, a certain person wrote a letter to Luoyang and asked Nuo Haobo's subordinates to come and help, these people ...... Trust. β
The Tuyuhun people have not yet accepted their fate, but Zhang De believes that they are about to accept their fate. It's just that the Tuyuhun people are skilled in bows and horses, but it is estimated that there are not many people who can get on the boat without dizziness...... But it's not that they are to do things at sea, they have to go ashore.
The Baekje pirates are all supported by the Buyeo royal family, and the boats, people, and money are all members of the Baekje royal family. Whether it's a business or a robbery, there's definitely a lot of profit.
In the last month alone, two or three thousand taels of gold were traded from the Black Tooth Country. Although the purity is not as good as that of the Tang Dynasty, gold is gold, hard currency.
Another example is robbery, Baekje pirates robbed a Japanese ship, most likely they could grab a lot of pearl tortoiseshell coral, and then sell it to Tang Dynasty merchant ships. No matter how low the price of the Tang people is, a boatload of pearl tortoiseshell coral, one or two hundred thousand yuan, basically needs two boats of silk to offset it.
And a boatload of silk is enough for the lord of Baekje to reward the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, and he can also add a few beautiful clothes to the harem.
Of course, the people of Baekje prefer Kaiyuan Tongbao, because with Kaiyuan Tongbao, they can buy anything, and they don't need to specialize in pearl tortoiseshell. It's a pity that the Kaiyuan Tongbao Tang Dynasty itself is lacking, from the Zhou Dynasty to the Tang Dynasty, there has been a shortage of money, and it has never been surpassed, which is also a pity.
"But it, armor ......"
"Do you want to die quickly?"
Zhang De glanced at him.
Qu Tuquan laughed dryly, and then said: "The people of Baekje are weak, but there are still tens of thousands of victories. Brother Berki leveled the Baekje pirates this time, fearing that they would covet the Black Tooth Country. β
The Black Tooth country is a small country, and there is basically no combat effectiveness. Another one, there are many tribal clans around the Black Tooth Country, and the composition is also very complex, and uniting them is simply adding a burden and pig teammates.
Zhang De wants to recruit a qualified marine, there is no hope at present, he can only say that he wins by relying on the elite, and if the bow and crossbow are used well, it is the elite.
"What about a small country, even if the whole country?"
In a country of Baekje's size, Zhang De didn't pay attention to it at all, a land of states, a rabble. If he is really provoked, the three fleets will besiege it together, and the conscienceless cannon will bombard, and the Baekje King City will be able to be defeated in one day. It's just that this income is a bit of a loss, not to mention a hammer deal, it's not easy to make some gunpowder now.
And the cost of a sharp-bottomed boat, just floating on the water for a day, is not something anyone can afford. It was not possible to besiege Baekje with three fleets, and after winning the battle, they still lost money.
To deal with such a small country, of course, the imperial court wants to annex it, but for a crony capitalist like Zhang De, of course, a small country should be like a beautiful girl exuding a youthful atmosphere, keeping it and enjoying it slowly...... (To be continued.) )
