The gathered people gradually dispersed, and the people of Yutai Village in the prison walked out of the prison one by one. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Seeing Yue Yun, an old woman suddenly knelt on the ground and said to Yang Chengye: "Master Assassin Shi, this matter of selling illicit salt has nothing to do with Yue Yun, I instructed him to do it, the people in the village are all old, young people join the army, and those who go out to sea to fish are killed, and we who are old and immortal can't farm at all, and we all rely on selling illicit salt to exchange for some food to eat." ”
"Mother, what are you doing, Your Highness has forgiven our sins." Yue Yun was a little embarrassed.
"What!" The old woman looked at the three people outside the door, two of whom he didn't know, while Yang Chengye had a wry smile on his face.
Seeing the old woman looking at him, Yang Chengye smiled bitterly and said, "Yue Yun is right, this is His Royal Highness the King of Qi, if you want to thank His Royal Highness." ”
The old woman turned to Xiao Ming excitedly and was about to kowtow.
At this time, Xiao Ming helped the old woman up and said: "You don't have to do this big gift, your life can't go on, this is the fault of this king, and this time I came to Dengzhou to solve this problem." ”
When the old woman heard this, she became even more excited, "What Your Highness said is true?" ”
Xiao Ming nodded.
At this time, Pang Yukun said: "Your Highness, this is not the place to speak, let's go back to the palace, the complexity of Dengzhou is no worse than that of Cangzhou." ”
Yang Chengye came back to his senses and said, "Your Highness, what Pang Changshi said is right, there are often pirates in this Dengzhou City, let's go back and talk about it." ”
Letting the other villagers go back first, Xiao Ming took Yue Yun and the old woman to the mansion.
The group sat down again, and Xiao Ming asked, "You are all from Dengzhou, now tell this king about the situation in the sea near Dengzhou." ”
"I'll tell you." Yue Yun said diligently, not only was he pardoned for his crimes, but he also wanted to join the army, he was excited, and he wanted to show it, "When my grandfather was fishing at sea, the Japanese in this area were not so rampant, but when it came to the grass people's father's generation, there were more Japanese in the nearby waters. ”
"Your Highness, according to the time, it is almost the same, and the killing of the envoy of the Great Yu Kingdom to Goryeo happened more than twenty years ago." Pang Yukun said.
Xiao Ming nodded and asked, "What are these widows?" What about the boats? ”
"These widows are wearing clogs, their hair stands up, their foreheads are bare, and their clothes are different from those of the Great Yu Kingdom." Yue Yun said.
Xiao Ming took a pen and paper and drew the appearance of the kimono and said, "Is this what it looks like?" ”
"That's right, it's this kind of clothes." Yue Yun pointed and said, "As for their boat, we all call it the Anzhai boat, this kind of boat seems to have built a house and put it on. ”
"Ataka ship?"
Xiao Ming knew this name, and in the information of the science and technology library, there was a record of this house ship, and the appearance was the same as what Yue Yun said.
After Yue Yun finished speaking, Yang Chengye said: "Your Highness, in addition to killing people and stealing goods at sea, these Japanese robbers often go ashore to plunder, and our Dengzhou has also found traces of Japanese robbers several times, but the number is not large, but it is said that there are many Japanese robbers in the rich south. ”
"It's all because Dengzhou is poor, otherwise how would these wouldn't let Dengzhou go." Yue Yun gritted his teeth and said.
Then, the three of them wanted Xiao Ming to say something about the sea, and Xiao Ming also asked some fishermen about the types of fish they caught, because of the limitation of fishing levels, fishermen can only catch some small fish, such as offshore marine fish such as mentai fish, and abalone, but because abalone needs to be caught by diving, the yield is very small.
In modern times, this Dengzhou generation is rich in abalone, because of the difficulty of transportation and storage, this abalone is absolutely a luxury, and because of this, this fisherman can make a living by fishing.
However, with the increase in the number of Japanese boats in the coastal waters, fishermen rarely venture out into the sea to catch abalone.
Now Xiao Ming is facing a lot of predicaments, everything is in ruins, and now the pressure of the northern barbarians makes it impossible not to devote too much energy to the construction of the navy, so the purpose of the Galen ship is to carry out ocean trade to obtain potatoes and other crops, that is, to expel the Japanese in the coastal sea.
Moreover, the ten-year army and the hundred-year navy are not just a joke, Yue Yun and these people still dare not go too far from the land when they sail on the sea.
In fact, why are there so many Japanese ships here? The answer is obvious, because these pirates also travel along the coastline.
Detached from the coastline, they are likely to sail into the open sea and never come back.
Therefore, when letting the fleet go on an ocean voyage, Xiao Ming had to teach these people how to discern the direction at sea, and this is a very deep knowledge.
After a brief understanding of the situation in Dengzhou and the sea, Xiao Ming said to Yue Yun: "You are more familiar with this fishing village in Dengzhou than Fang Thorn History, so you should cooperate with Fang Thorn Shi to recruit crews." ”
"Yes, Your Highness, this is a question, but what if they don't want to? After all, they were frightened by the pirates. Yue Yun said.
Xiao Ming smiled faintly: "It's okay to do this, this king will not force you to join this king's navy, but you can take them to Qingzhou with this king, if they see the battleship and leave, this king will let them go, what do you say?" ”
"Well, that's fine." Yue Yun said excitedly.
Speaking of this matter of recruiting seafarers, Xiao Ming remembered the pothos, and he said to the pothos behind him: "By the way, pothos, which village are you from?" ”
When he looked back, he saw the pothos looking like she was about to cry.
Hearing this, Lu Luo said: "Your Highness, I am from Yutai Village, auntie, do you remember me?" I'm Meng Haiqiu. ”
Only then did the old woman return to China and look at the pothos and say, "What did you say? ”
Luluo came to the old woman this time and said, "Auntie, I am Meng Haiqiu, Meng Kuo's daughter. ”
Hearing this, Yue Yun looked incredulous and said, "Are you Qiu'er?" ”
Luluo nodded and said, "Brother Yun, am I Qiu'er?" ”
The old woman gradually became excited, and she said, "Are you really Qiu'er?" ”
Luluo nodded again, and she said, "It's me, auntie, Brother Yun, what about my brother?" ”
"Dead!" At the mention of this, Yue Yun's face suddenly became gloomy.
The old woman looked at the pothos and seemed to see what the pothos looked like when she was a child, and he said angrily to Yue Yun: "Don't talk nonsense, Qiu'er, your brother ...... him"
Speaking of which, she seemed a little overwhelmed.
Yue Yun said angrily: "It's better to die, your brother has become the leader of the Japanese Bandits, an ungrateful bastard, you have the right to treat him as dead." ”
