Chapter 338: Enemy at Sea
Donglai County in Qingzhou was originally Luo Gan's original territory. Therefore www.biquge.info under its vigorous development, it is quite stable and prosperous.
There are no bandits, and the people live and work in peace and contentment, although all the people in Donglai County can be happy and happy, but there will not be a situation where a large number of people will starve to death. Compared to other counties, it is a very good county. In particular, commerce flourished, as fishing and salt flourished because of the proximity to the sea. This salt industry was monopolized by the government from the time of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, but it added a lot of wealth to the government.
The Taishou of Donglai County is Tai Shi Ci, this Tai Shi Ci is originally from Donglai County, and he can be regarded as returning to his hometown. Therefore, although there was no war in Donglai County, Tai Shici did not complain. Every day, he either deals with government affairs or leads troops out of the city to hunt, and of course he does not forget to train soldiers.
On this day, when the sea was a little calmer, the fishermen of Donglai County went out to sea to fish, and one of them was slightly demented and was often teased.
"Yang Chenghao, you kid is willing to go out to fish, and you are not at home to hold your wife?" A dark-skinned and obscene man pushed the seven-foot man in front of him.
"Hehe~ How can I have money to buy something for her if I don't come out to fish, hehe~" The man named Yang Chenghao scratched his head and said with a smile, with a strong love in his eyes.
"Haha~"
"Let's go, go to sea quickly, take advantage of the calm waves, the sea god blesses, go to sea quickly!" One of the leading fishermen scolded.
Then the fishing boats went out to sea to fish, and today the wind and waves were calm, but there were also many fish goods, and everyone was very happy.
"Look, what's that?" The dark-skinned man shouted, and everyone looked at him curiously. It turned out that a dark shadow appeared on the sea in the distance, and soon it was seen that it was a large ship.
It's a big battleship.
"It's a warship! Come on! Row, row! When the fishermen were still surprised and curious, Yang Chenghao had rowed his fishing boat desperately to the shore.
"Well, we'll row quickly, too." Only then did the others react and hurriedly began to row desperately.
Soon those warships also found these fishing boats, and rushed over, and the fishermen's boats were directly overturned by the building boats. The soldiers on the warship grinned and fished up the fishermen, and let them lead the way to the shore.
Among those people, only Yang Chenghao escaped with his life, rushed to the shore first, and then immediately rushed home to take his wife who was still very confused, and rushed to the Taishou Mansion of Donglai County.
This Yang Chenghao was Xu Huang's deputy, and he also captured Kong Rong when he followed Xu Huang to attack the drama county. But later, when he followed Xu Huang to attack Le'an County, he fell into the river on the bridge and was washed away by the river.
After that, Yang Chenghao's experience was more legendary, and he was washed into the sea by the river that day, but he was not drowned. What's even more legendary is that when he was about to starve to death on the sea, he was rescued by a fisherwoman. Then there is a story of a beautiful woman saving a hero, Yang Chenghao was choked because he fell into the water, and as a result, he was a little in the water, and he only remembered that his name was Yang Chenghao. Later, he married this fisherman's daughter and lived peacefully in Donglai County.
Now that he was frightened by the warship, he actually regained his memory and immediately went to report to Donglai Taishou.
However, how could the guards guarding the door easily let a fisherman go in to see them Tai Shou, Yang Chenghao wasted his tongue and it was useless, just when Tai Shi Ci came back from the barracks.
"General Taishi, General Taishi, I am General Xu Huang's adjutant general, I have an urgent military situation to report." Yang Chenghao saw Tai Shici and shouted excitedly.
The fisherwoman who followed Yang Chenghao all the way kept holding his hand behind and looked around timidly.
Tai Shici heard someone call him, and when he took a closer look, he really followed Xu Huang and attacked Yang Chenghao of Le Anguo together, and he thought he was dead at the time.
There was no time to greet him, so Yang Chenghao told Tai Shici the news that he had seen a warship attacking when he went out to sea to fish. Tai Shi Ci was shocked, this warship came from the sea, it must have bad intentions, and it was impossible to come to fish anyway.
Tai Shi Ci immediately ordered to gather troops and horses to prepare for battle, and at the same time quickly sent scouts to inspect the coastal areas to listen to the situation so that he could deal with it next. As for Yang Chenghao, he naturally settled his wife and came under the command of Tai Shici.
By the time Tai Shi Ci had assembled his soldiers and horses, the building ship on the sea had also landed on Penglai Island, and then based on Penglai Island, he headed for Zhihuang County, Donglai County. When this army landed on the shore, it was discovered by the nearby people, and then Tai Shici's scouts also heard the news.
Originally, Tai Shici thought it was just some pirates or the like, or some remnants of the Yellow Turban, but if it was these people, he would naturally immediately send troops to kill them.
However, the scout heard that this is an army of tens of thousands, and it is estimated that there are more than 12,000 people, which is twice as many as Taishi Ci's army. And it's not a pirate, this army is under the banner of Liaodong, and the word Gongsun is written on the banner.
This army was already approaching when Yang Chenghao found out, and later had a full meal on Penglai Island, but now it is here to besiege the county seat.
Because Tai Shi Ci didn't know the strength of the opponent for the time being, he didn't dare to attack rashly, so he closed the city gate and defended.
The Gongsun army of the surrounding city was headed by a general who was seven feet six inches long, with a sallow face, holding a spear, and said arrogantly to the city: "I am Liu Yi under the command of Liaodong Marquis and Pingzhou Mu, and my lord has named me the history of Yingzhou Thorn, supervising the counties of Donglai in Qingzhou." You quickly sacrifice the city, you can avoid death, otherwise you will attack the city, and the chickens and dogs will not be left! ”
It turned out that this army was under the command of Gongsun Du, who occupied the Liaodong Peninsula.
There are 11 counties in this Youzhou, including Dai County, Shanggu County, Zhuo County, Guangyang County, Yuyang County, Youbeiping County, Liaoxi County, Liaodong Subordinate State, Liaodong County, Xuansu County, and Lelang County.
Gongsun Zhan served as the Taishou of Youbeiping, and his and Liu Yu's forces were mainly in the west of Youzhou, and in the east of Liaodong County on the Liaodong Peninsula, which was Gongsun Du's territory.
At the beginning, Xu Rong recommended Gongsun Du to Dong Zhuo as the Taishou of Liaodong, and later Gongsun Du took advantage of the weakness of the Han Dynasty and the chaos of the princes. He proclaimed himself the Marquis of Liaodong and the Mu of Pingzhou, occupying Liaodong County, Xuansu County, and Lelang County, and was regarded as the overlord of Liaodong Region.
Of course, Gongsun Du is just standing on his own in Liaodong County, and he doesn't dare to fight with Gongsun Zhan, but if he wants to expand, there are only two directions.
One is to compete with Goguryeo for territory, before Goguryeo invaded Liaodong County, and after Gongsun Du arrived, he bullied Goguryeo in turn. The other direction is to attack Donglai County in Qingzhou by sea.
Gongsun Zhan's ambition was bursting, and he sealed Yanzhou, Jizhou, and Qingzhou Assassin History, while sending troops to compete with Yuan Shao for Jizhou, and on the other hand, he sent Tian Kai to lead troops from Pingyuan County to Qingzhou for Qingzhou Assassin History. On the other hand, he sent people to Liaodong County to invite Gongsun Du to jointly send troops to Qingzhou.
So Gongsun Du sent his subordinate Liu Yi as the main general and deputy general Yang Yi to lead more than 12,000 Liaodong soldiers to set off from the Liaodong Peninsula in later generations by ship. After passing through the Bohai Strait, along the archipelago between the Liaodong Peninsula and the Shandong Peninsula to Donglai County, the nearest target city is Zhihuang County of Donglai County.
Tai Shi Ci held a spear in his hand and said disdainfully: "What are you that dare to hit the attention of my Donglai County, this Qingzhou is my father-in-law Qingzhou Mu." If you know each other, you will go where you come from, don't mistake yourself, otherwise you will know that I am too powerful! ”
