Chapter 100: The Fleet Returns
Baqi is a wonderful chess piece for Yanbei, who controls the military and political power of the three counties in Youdong. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
The situation in Youzhou is complicated, and Liaodong is directly bordered by two Dongyi powers, and it is not easy to gain a foothold in this land.
Geographically speaking, the real place of great prosperity is Guanzhong. There is a fertile field Xiongguan in the pass, the folk wind is fierce, the north is based on the south of the river by the high mountains, relying on the natural danger is enough to defend, if you are brave enough to look at the world, it is the situation that you can attack and retreat.
Youzhou is different, Youzhou has a mournful flute sound and the most chilling cold wind, the fierce and martial Yan Dynasty legacy mixed with strong wine and horses, so that the people who have lived in this land for generations have been born with Ren Xia and brave in their blood.
But the towering and majestic Gaima Mountain blocks the wind and snow, and also blocks the idea of Han people to open up the territory; The vast East China Sea isolates the enemy from the south, but it also cuts off Youzhou's pioneering spirit.
The best climate and land for cultivation in the Northeast of the world are in the hands of Hermes-Epitek, and they have developed it to the extreme.
No matter how strong and strong Yanbei's soldiers and horses were, they still couldn't climb over the snow-covered mountains, the waves of the East China Sea, and the old enemies of the Han people on the grasslands in the north...... It is impossible to erect a city on the grassland that belongs to the Han people.
Yanbei knew all this, knew it, but he didn't want to accept it, let alone accept it.
In the face of Dongyi and Northern Hu, Liaodong is a frontier county, and if Hu Han is a little careless, it is the border war of Chen Bing that is about to break out; But for the chaotic Central Plains, Liaodong is his foundation, but whenever there is the slightest thought in his heart that he wants to go south to fight the Central Plains, Dongyi is the tiger that is still sleeping soundly on the side of the couch, and he has to guard against it.
Now that the power of Yanbei is gradually becoming a threat to Dongyi, Buyeo needs him to balance Goguryeo, and Goguryeo hopes to cut off the threat of the Han Dynasty when facing the Buyeo State in the north, but it is restrained by the war. Once Yanbei's troops and horses proliferated or showed their coveting of the vast land east of the Gaima Mountains, who could guarantee that the two kingdoms would not put aside their feuds for the time being and attack him?
Read Chinese books, study Chinese studies, and write Chinese ...... The so-called vertical and horizontal shut-offs are not only Han people!
In this situation, Baqi, who was helpless in the country, became the most critical chess piece in Yanbei's plot against Goguryeo.
He is going to train this Goguryeo heir well, and let his cronies become his henchmen, and help him ascend to the Goguryeo throne in the near future...... Of course, Goguryeo, which fell into the hands of Bachi, would not have been as powerful as it is now.
Maybe when the time comes, the soldiers will be able to make Yanbei recover the hometown of Xuansu County of the Han Dynasty.
……
Wen County, Liaodong Water Village.
It has been more than two years since Sun Qing accepted Wen County and set up a water village along the coast to practice water pawns. Now the change of Wenxian Water Village makes Yanbei, who drives all the way, proud.
From Xiangping to Wenxian County, Wenxian County to the coastal water village, hundreds of miles can accommodate four horses parallel to the road, which is refreshing. Nearly 10,000 craftsmen's families have formed rural settlements on the coast outside Wenxian County, and the houses and courtyards on both sides of the cobblestone road are open to traffic.
Now is a good time to dry the boats, and the idle boatmen return to the shore in small boats to load the harvest of fishing, and the family laughs and drags the fresh fish in the nets, and returns home with the setting sunset, where they slaughter the fish into miso or salted fish and shrimp soup in the courtyard.
Farther away, the endless salt pans shimmer in the afterglow, and the horsemen carry large pieces of salt bricks to the city twenty miles away in the evening. There, there will be officials in charge of salt and iron in the county and merchants in Liaodong County who will be responsible for reselling them to various places in exchange for huge profits.
Along the north and south of the coast two huge camps, several huge fighting ships and dozens of walkers stopped at the ferry, three or three of the sailors in twos and bare in the village, now there are not many sailors still in Wenxian County, only a few hundred people remain, it seems a little lonely. In contrast, the shipwrights on the side were much more vigorous, with hundreds of huge logs and planks to be used as keels laid on the beach covered with dark lacquer, and boatsmiths carved the outboard planks that were needed before the sun went down, and heavy canvases were stacked under the straight and sturdy masts.
In time, these fragmented planks and keels will be integrated into a vast fleet that will fly the Yan's sails and dominate the East China Sea.
At a distance of only a few hundred steps from the coast, a fighting ship was moored safely, and the huge hull of nearly ten zhang hung five-colored silk, which was extremely luxurious. This is a new ship that the ship division only launched into the sea in mid-August, with a length of eight zhang and nine feet, a width of more than three zhang, and can carry more than 100 boatmen and soldiers.
Although it is not the largest warship in Wen County, it is also one of them.
At night, the water village is still brightly lit, the boatmen along the shore are holding the boats one after another towards the sea, the four ships carrying the war drums make a rumbling drum, Yan Bei and Fu Zhu boarded the water village lookout, looking at the coast under the night from a distance like a galaxy, one by one with a little fire in the dark night to the darkness exhausted.
Outside the water village, the families of the soldiers in the countryside heard that the fleet that sailed to the Central Plains would return today, and they knelt down on the side of the road to pray to the heavens for the Liaodong sailors who went out on the expedition, praying that they could return home safely tonight.
Yes, Tian Yu is coming back, and more than twenty warships are back carrying the secret room of the palace that Yanbei emphasized!
This is the reason why Yanbei stands on the watchtower in the dark and feels the sea breeze at night.
The air brought the saltiness of the waves, Yan Bei wrinkled his nose but only smelled the sweetness of joy.
"My lord, what kind of material is it for the fleet to transport, so that you can't even care about Tie Wu Xin's forging blade?"
It's okay not to ask, as soon as he opened his mouth to ask, Yan Bei couldn't hold back his solemn expression, uncontrollably showed joy, raised his hand and smiled: "Think about it, and think bigger!" ”
Frustrated Zhu frowned, let him think hard and meditate, he really couldn't think of what Yanbei had loaded on the fleet, specially dispatched the warship to the Central Plains, and then personally greeted Tian Yu in Shuizhai...... is the great hero of Liaodong County, and he does not have this kind of treatment. However, it was impossible for Tian Yu to make military achievements in the Central Plains, and the Japanese fleet had just arrived in the Central Plains for a few days and immediately turned back, and even sent back letters indicating that the strong bows and crossbows on the ship had not been fired.
The only possibility, that is, the loading of vital supplies.
But Fu Zhu couldn't think of anything in Luoyang, which was burned to ashes, what could be worth Yanbei's worries?
"You can't figure it out!" Yan Bei smiled extremely happily, there were only two people on the upstairs, he didn't have to worry about the wall, Zhengse looked at Fu Zhu and lowered his voice and said, "I found the secret passage of the palace arsenal...... I moved the palace chamber back. ”
"This!"
Fu Zhu stared at Yanbei in disbelief with wide eyes, unable to breathe, and was stunned for a few breaths before hesitating: "Palace, secret room? ”
"Well, what's in there, you think about it. Confucius sent to Luoyang, Emperor Gao's snake sword, Wang Mang's head, the map of the world, and ......" Yan Bei stared into the distance, looking at the rolling waves in the night, his eyes involuntarily became deep, and said softly: "Inherit the jade seal of the country." ”
Frustrated was just like the reaction of Yan Bei and the others when they walked into the secret room of the palace, and they were so shocked that they couldn't speak.
What did the lord get back? All are priceless!
"If it's just these things, a wooden box would suffice, but it's more than that." Yan Bei shook his head slowly, feeling indescribable anxiety in his heart, as if he couldn't personally watch the soldiers carry those treasures from the warship, he couldn't settle his heart, "Books are lonely and simple, Dongyuan secret weapons, Nangong treasures, Lingtai Guantian Stone, and the forty-six inscriptions of the Xiping Stone Sutra at the gate of Taixue...... It's all on board. ”
Frustration was really shocked, how bold Yanbei is, not to mention the books, the secret weapons of the East Garden are all imperial tomb utensils, and it is needless to say what the significance of the Xiping Stone Scripture at the gate of Taixue is. In addition to these, the map of the world, the snake sword of Gaozu, and even the jade seal of the country!
"However......" Although he was shocked by Yan Bei to bring back these treasures from the ruins of Luoyang, he could understand it, after all, there are few people in the world who can resist this temptation, not to mention that such as the map of the world, it is much more useful to put it in Yan Bei's hands than to be used by others, but his face is still a little shocked and asked: "What is the use of the lord taking Wang Mang's head and drifting across the sea?" ”
Yes, what is the use of Wang Mang's head that has been put on for more than a hundred years!
Frustrated with the feeling that Yanbei should have been confused by the heavy treasure at that time, he was afraid that his eyes would be confused, and he only thought that it was a treasure and put it back in one go, but the blackened city bricks in Luoyang were not brought back.
"Wang Mang's head is the most useful for a certain person." Yan Bei's face showed an extremely complicated expression, "Stay by your side and be alert." ”
The commotion from the harbor interrupted their conversation, but they both knew that this brief conversation was not over. They need to pick out the right time to talk about the fate and stay of these Han treasures.
On the vast sea, a little spark of light is revealed at the end of the eye, the sound of war drums is from far and near, more than 20 warships ride the wind and waves, and the red sails are as heavy as a mystery in the night, slowly approaching the water village.
That's his majestic fleet!
"Gonghe, let's go pick up the national envoy!"
Tian Yu is an upstart in the three counties of Youdong, although he has no military merits or political achievements, and he is only an ordinary middle-level officer under Yanbei in charge of Shuizhai, and his status is still inferior to that of all the captains and lieutenants. However, he relied on his sword to stab Gongsun Du to quell a disaster in Liaodong, and in a very short period of time, he gained a reputation that others could not match...... The people of the Yan Dynasty were the most brave and chivalrous, and his actions made him quickly become a hot figure in Youdong.
Nowadays, it is one of the three counties.
Tian Yu's age is a few years younger than Yanbei, and he has just left the year of crowning, and in the blink of an eye, he has become the Taishou of the ruling party!
"The subordinates have fulfilled their mission, and the fleet has all returned!" Tian Yu had just gotten off the boat and saw Yanbei surrounded by people on the shore, although he was not flattered but also surprised, he hurriedly bowed and said: "How dare General Lao drive!" ”
"Guorang, please get up quickly, Yan is not just here to pick you up. The country has made meritorious efforts to control the water village and remove Gongsun...... Look over there. Yan Bei pointed to the direction of the warship moored on the sea with colorful silks, and said with Tian Yu's arm: "I can't see clearly at night, there is an eight-foot and nine-foot fighting ship parked there, from now on, it is yours!" ”
