Chapter 1045: The Sentry of the Japanese People

The news brought by the carrier pigeon was very general and not detailed, and the details were not introduced, but the fall of Wei Du made Han Mo feel extremely excited in his heart.

There is no doubt that the fall of the Wei capital marked the decline of the huge Western Wei Empire, and the general trend of the world was a step forward in the trend of long-term integration.

It's just that the time when Wei Du fell was much earlier than Han Mo estimated.

Han Mo has assessed the strength of the Wei people, although they have blocked the supply of supplies to the Wei State everywhere, but there is a large amount of grain and grass stored in the Wei capital, and although Xue Poye is not a famous general, he has a huge army of 100,000 people under his hands after all, and the Wei people have built several fortifications, and it is not easy to forcibly conquer them.

When Han Mo was on the front line, he formulated a strategy of attrition, and he believed that such a strategy would definitely be the most in the interests of the Yan State, which would not only reduce the casualties of the Yan army, but also drag down the Wei State and even the Qing people.

He knew that Han Xuanlingbi would not easily change such a strategic deployment.

If everything goes according to his own strategy, then it is impossible for Wei Du to be broken at this time, according to Han Mo's conservative estimate, even if Wei Du can't support the surrender of Kaicheng, it can only be two months later, because at that time, there may be a serious shortage of logistics hoarding within Wei Du, which will lead to low morale and even civil strife in Yan State.

The news on the note clearly pointed out that the Wei capital was broken, not because of the coalition forces, but because there was internal turmoil in the Wei capital, and even the cannibalistic emperor of Wei hanged himself in the Qilin Pavilion.

The reputation of the Qilin Pavilion has long been heard of by Han Mo, and even everyone in the world has heard of it.

It was the golden attic that Emperor Wei spent a lot of money to build, just like the treasure pavilion built by Emperor Qing, it was used to collect treasures, but the treasures in the Qilin Pavilion were much more precious than the treasure pavilion.

This Emperor Wei died in the Qilin Pavilion that he regarded as his life, looking full of rare treasures, I don't know what kind of mood he was in before he died.

……

Civil strife?

Han Mo's mind quickly thought of Zhu Xiaoyan, who accompanied the imperial historian Jiang Siyuan into Kyoto City to negotiate, although there was no other news, but Han Mo felt very strongly that Wei Du was captured so quickly, and Zhu Xiaoyan must have played an extremely important role in it.

According to the normal situation, it is impossible for Wei to have a civil strife so soon, since it has already happened earlier, then it can only be caused by sudden factors.

And this sudden factor, there is a good chance that Zhu Xiaoyan is the best.

After all, Zhu Xiaoyan is the descendant of the former prime minister of the Wei State, although the Yan clan is ruined, but the old ministers of the Yan Dynasty are counted, there must be a remnant of the remnants in the Yan Kingdom, when everyone is in danger under the city, Zhu Xiaoyan is very likely to secretly envelop the remnants of the Yan clan in Kyoto City, otherwise with Zhu Xiaoyan's person, if he is really not a little sure, he will never do anything like a moth to the fire, if Zhu Xiaoyan is really the kind of person who is willful, there is no need to endure for many years.

Han Mo didn't know exactly how Zhu Xiaoyan operated, but if the fall of Weidu was really planned by Zhu Xiaoyan, then Han Mo felt very relieved in his heart.

At least he didn't look at the wrong person at the beginning, and Zhu Xiaoyan's credit allowed Yan Guo to reduce the loss of national strength, and even avoided greater casualties, thinking that Yan Guo's iron cavalry had stepped into the gate of the capital of Wei State, Han Mo really regretted that he couldn't appear there.

Anyway, this news came, which boosted the morale of the fleet, and everyone was laughing and laughing, and Han Mo and Guan Shaohe even personally put down the big fishing and fished in the East China Sea, a few times, but they caught a lot of strange sea fish, those colorful and extremely beautiful fish, Han Mo let people get a fish tank and put it in Aunt Xiao Qianbi's room, so that they could see their vision, as for those edible big fish, Han Mo made the cook make a hundred fish feast, braised and steamed, and everyone feasted.

Over the next few days, the south wind rose, the sails were raised, and the speed of the fleet suddenly increased.

After going to sea for nearly 20 days, the road from the Nanyang Islands is getting closer and closer, and the vigilance of the fleet has begun to be further stricter, in addition to arranging two crew members on the watchtower at the same time to check the surrounding movements with binoculars, there are patrols on the ship day and night, especially at night, the number of patrols has doubled, and the forty royal guards who followed Han Mo to the sea are also divided into two shifts, always on guard.

On this day and night, the bright moon is in the sky, the waves on the sea are rolling, the bright moon is projected on the sea, the waves are sparkling, it is beautiful, and the sound of the waves rises and falls.

Han Mo stood on the platform, his hands behind his back, his long hair was blown by the sea breeze and floated, under the moonlight, he was extremely chic.

It's just that Han Mo's heart is quite complicated at this time, and along the way, it is also very smooth, but this is only a very small journey in his life, will his road in the future be so smooth?

Wei was captured, so what kind of strategy will the Yan Dynasty adopt next? Especially Han Xuandao, what kind of arrangements will he make?

Han Mo knows very well that the court of Yan seems to be quite calm for the time being, it is nothing more than because of the stalemate of the war ahead, and now that the outcome of the war has become clear, what kind of situation will there be in Yanjing City?

He brought his wife and children out, just to understand that there must be a big storm in Yan Kingdom, and he must think about the safety of his family, and it is indeed a good place to take a break from it.

But his parents are still in Beijing, and it is impossible for him to take his parents away from under Han Xuandao's nose without leaking a trace, and Han Xuandao will definitely control Han Xuanchang and his wife firmly in his hands in order to contain him.

Han Mo already knows a lot about his temperament with Han Xuandao, this uncle is extremely forbearing, and he is quiet on weekdays, but if he really wants to make a move, he must be fierce and ruthless.

Since he suppressed himself, he was wary of himself, although he didn't kill himself for a while, but Han Mo had to think of Han Cang, who was very contradictory to himself.

Han Cang's eyes were already full of murderous intent, if he was taken power by Han Xuandao, then as Han Xuandao's eldest son, Han Cang would definitely become more powerful, how would Han Cang deal with himself at that time? If he was suppressed by Han Xuandao and had no strength, wouldn't he be at the mercy of the eldest brother who had murderous intent at will?

Of course, Han Mo didn't want that to happen.

He closed his eyes and felt the gentle sea breeze, and while he was pondering, he suddenly heard a voice from the watchtower: "My lord, there is a ship coming from the east!" ”

Han Mo was on the platform at this time, with a telescope next to him, picked up the telescope, looked east, and under the moonlight, he saw two black shadows in the distance, which seemed to be leaning over this side.

"My lord, there is a signal from the front, and they have also seen the incoming ship." The crew said again.

"Raise the flag, all the ships lower their sails, and let the men move instead." Han Mo looked at the two ships coming from the flank, it was by no means a mirage, but there were indeed two ships approaching this side, but at this time the distance was still too far away to see the sign on the other party's flag.

The ship's siren sounded quickly, and the sailors who had heard it in their sleep immediately rolled over from their couches, and in a matter of moments the deck and the ship's side were already manned.

Guan Shaohe and Captain Liang had also quickly ascended to the platform, and they both raised their binoculars and looked in the direction of the wing, and they both saw the sea ships coming this way.

"My lord, the Immortal has called a flag and asked your lord how to deal with it?" The crew said.

"Don't be in a hurry, wait a minute!" Han Mo said calmly.

After a while, the crew said: "My lord, the Immortal sent a message, and the ship is the sentry ship of the Japanese bandits, with a golden gourd chess piece on it, and it is the flag of the Japanese bandits!" ”

"Sure enough, it's a widow." Captain Liang said excitedly: "Fifth Young Master, there are only two boats, let's go up and beat them." ”

Han Mo shook his head and said: "That's the sentry of the Japanese people, they know that our caravan has at least seven ships, but they only send two ships to investigate, which means that these two ships are extremely fast, and it is expected that the merchant ships will not be able to catch up." ”

Captain Liang hurriedly said: "Fifth Young Master, the speed of our three warships will never be weaker than theirs!" ”

Han Mo patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "This is natural. Then he stretched out his hand to the east and said, "We are now going to the south, and they are on the eastern flank, and if we want to catch up with them, we must turn the course...... The most important thing is that now it is a southerly wind, and when it catches up with the east, the sails can no longer work, and can only be chased by manpower, and it may not be able to have an absolute advantage in speed. Moreover, their ships are very small, and although their combat power is far from ours, they must be very agile in their operations, and they must be much faster than we are...... If you chase them at night, you might be slipped away! ”

Guan Shaohe clapped his hands and said, "The fifth young master is really thoughtful. Since this is a bandit spy, we can't let him slip away to report the news...... After defeating them, the main force of the bandits became uninformed, and we had a good chance of catching them off guard. ”

At this moment, he heard the seafarer on the watchtower say: "My lord, Miss Du has sent a signal, asking if she can use the strategy of fishing and open her pockets to let the bandits' sea boats get into your pockets?" ”

Han Mo smiled: "Yue'er is really old-fashioned, yes, this strategy is exactly what I want." He said in a deep voice: "Pass my order, the Immortal led three merchant ships to move forward five to ten nautical miles and stopped, get ready, and send three more merchant ships to turn westward, leaving one merchant ship to take a detour from the south to copy the back route of the Japanese ships...... The Black Pearl also quickly made a big detour, blocking the retreat of the enemy ship with the merchant ship, and the Giant Shark and the ship did not have to turn around, but made the bilge sailors go back five nautical miles, and made sure that the Japanese ship could not be discovered by them before entering the pocket, and when they entered the mouth, they saw the ship's rocket rise into the air, and they surrounded it from all sides, trapping the Japanese ship inside! ”
