Thank you FWTBDCZ for a monthly pass!

Thank you for a monthly ticket voted by the handsome think/disfigured son!

On the fourth day, the Wei army suddenly took action, more than 50,000 Wei troops appeared under the Shenting Ridge, including 10,000 of the most elite Xuanjia iron cavalry, the Chinese army commander flag is still Cao Cao's imperial flag, the Liu army defenders on the Shenting Ridge became nervous, and at the same time a fast horse galloped towards Qu'a City.

Just when the tension was raging under the Shenting Ridge, a huge fleet was heading down the river, and Cao Cao's figure appeared on the largest of the largest warships, shouldn't he be under the Shenting Ridge?

"Your Majesty, you're going to enter the sea in a while, so you'd better go back!" Gan Ning came to Cao Cao's side and asked.

"Xingba, you used to be a water bandit, you should be no stranger to the sea, right?" Cao Cao asked.

I don't want Gan Ning to shake his head, "The last general is only active in inland rivers and lakes, and he doesn't know much about the sea!" ”

Cao Cao couldn't help but show a look of disappointment, Gan Ning would obviously be wrong, and hugged his fists and said, "Your Majesty doesn't have to worry!" Although the last general did not know much about the sea, many of the soldiers in the fleet came from fishermen on the seaside, and they knew the weather and hydrology of the sea very well! ”

"Oh! Is there one on this boat? Cao Cao asked.

Gan Ning replied: "Lao Yu, who is in charge of piloting, is an old fisherman with many years of sailing experience!" ”

Cao Cao's eyes lit up, "Call him to me, I have something to ask him!" ”

"No." Gan Ning promised and went down immediately.

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid it's not for the war in front of you, right?" Guo Jia asked thoughtfully.

At this time, the fleet has entered the sea, and what is presented in front of you is an awe-inspiring world of water without borders.

Cao Cao nodded. "I can't hide anything from Feng Xiao!"

Cao Cao pointed to Shui Tian and asked, "Fengxiao, can you imagine." When seafaring technology developed, whoever controlled the sea was in charge of fate. Own and someone else's? ”

At this time, Cao Cao had a kind of domineering king who held the Qiankun in his hands to dominate the ups and downs, but Guo Jia shook his head a little blankly, obviously, Guo Jia, who had the distinctive characteristics of the mainland empire, still didn't understand Cao Cao's words, after all, since ancient times, only by controlling the world can he dominate his fate, and the so-called world is the huge Kyushu continent, not the ocean!

Not to mention in Guo Jia's opinion. What is in the sea, except for countless fish and shrimp, there seems to be nothing, and the huge Kyushu is a rich resource, gold that is rare to see in later generations, but at this time it is still equivalent to a rotten street, at least as long as the emperor is willing, he can reward others with hundreds of thousands of gold.

In such a situation, who would pay attention to the ocean. It's like a person with a net worth of hundreds of billions no longer cares about assets that seem to be only millions.

This may be the reason why it is almost impossible to transform a huge continental country into a maritime state. After all, everything you need can be found on the mainland, so why risk going to the endless ocean full of dangers.

Cao Cao didn't say much when he saw this. just smiled confidently: "I believe that Feng Xiao will understand soon!" ”

Gan Ning led a sturdy middle-aged soldier to Cao Cao, and this middle-aged soldier was the old Yu in Gan Ning's mouth. Gan Ning shouted at Lao Yu in a low voice: "When you see Your Majesty, don't you kneel down?" ”

Lao Yu came back to his senses. The courtyard hurriedly knelt down and bowed: "Little, the villain greets Your Majesty, long live Your Majesty!" ”

"Alright, alright! No need to be polite! Saying that, Cao Cao smiled and helped Lao Yu up, and Lao Yu couldn't help but feel flattered.

Cao Cao walked to the side of the ship, motioned for Lao Yu to come to his side and asked, "I heard your general say that you have been at sea for decades before joining the army?" ”

Lao Yu nodded with some emotion, hugged his fists and said: "Back to Your Majesty, in fact, the villain also worked as a fisherman before, and after the chaos in the world, he and a group of brothers started a business at sea with no capital!" ”

Cao Cao couldn't help frowning, and asked indifferently, "Presumably you all have a lot of lives on your hands, right?" ”

Lao Yu couldn't help but feel a cold and biting cold wind coming towards him, his heart sank, and he quickly knelt down and said: "Your Majesty clearly sees that villains have never killed innocents indiscriminately!" ”

The murderous aura on Cao Cao's body immediately dissipated, helped Lao Yu up, patted him on the shoulder, and said with some emotion: "In troubled times, everyone can't help themselves, and I also understand your hardships!" ”

Lao Yu couldn't help but be a little moved, and hugged his fists and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your innocence!" ”

"Well, let's not talk about these things anymore! I asked Xingba to call you here to ask you about the sea! Cao Cao said.

Lao Yu hurriedly clenched his fists and stood up.

"What's the furthest you've been?" Cao Cao asked.

"The Southern Islands, and Fuso!" Lao Yu replied.

Cao Cao couldn't help but look at him, "Have you ever been to Fusang?" Fuso is it in the depths of the sea to the east? ”

Lao Yu couldn't help but be stunned, "How did Your Majesty know!" ”

The reason why Lao Yu has this question is because the Chinese in this era do not attach importance to the sea at all, and regard the fishermen who live on the sea as untouchables, so what many fishermen and sea bandits know, many learned people in the Central Plains do not know at all, and Guo Jia beside Cao Cao at this moment has a blank expression.

Cao Cao laughed, "I learned about it from some merchants! ”

Old Yu was stunned.

Cao Cao asked, "What is the situation of this Fusang now?" ”

Lao Yu said a little excitedly: "Your Majesty can be regarded as asking the right person?" When the villain and a group of brothers were water bandits, they often went there to activities! ”

After a pause, he continued: "Fuso is actually the name we give him, Fuso is composed of three large islands, there are more than thirty small countries, they have a common alliance leader, it seems to be called Himiko, and the capital is in Yamadai. ”

"When you were a pirate, did you fight against him?" Cao Cao asked again.

Lao Yu nodded, frowning slightly, "The villains have fought with him more than once!" Although they can't fight, they are very brave! ”

Cao Cao was not surprised by what Lao Yu said, and Xu Chu on the side said unconvinced: "I don't believe that the barbarians on the desert island can be so powerful!" ”

Although Lao Yu did not agree with Xu Chu's words, he did not dare to refute it, and stood with his hands down.

Cao Cao glanced at Xu Chu and said with a smile: "Zhongkang, what you said is wrong!" ”

"On this day, well, the three big islands of Fuso are very big! It is probably equivalent to the area of the three states of Bingzhou, Jizhou, and Chongzhou, and it may be a little larger! ”

Hearing this, except for Lao Yu, everyone couldn't help but show a look of surprise.

They didn't know about Fusang, after all, as early as the time of Emperor Guangwu, there were people from Fusang who came to the court to ask Emperor Guangwu for canonization, but they really didn't expect that a barbarian country that didn't know where it was in a remote corner would have such a big land, almost about the same or even a little bigger than the original Sanhan.
