Chapter 818

Tengnuo mountain is located in the west of Liuzhou city. The scenery in the south of the Yangtze River lies in seeing mountains everywhere, and there is water when there is a mountain. From a distance, it is freehand landscape one by one, and from a close point of view, it is meticulous detail one by one. Placed far away, there is the beauty of looking far away, and placed near, there is the beauty of looking close.

Or because of this beautiful land and water, many literary giants were born in Jiangnan. Of course, there are also politicians who influence the world. However, no matter in the former dynasty or in the contemporary era, there have been no handsome talents in the south of the Yangtze River who can truly remain famous in history.

Looking at the history of nearly a thousand years, there are a large number of famous generals in the Northern Dynasty, and there is also a rare general who can win every battle in several dynasties in the south of the Yangtze River. This may be related to the less war in the south of the Yangtze River. In the north of the Yangtze River, there are many foreign wars, so there are constantly the rise of talents in the army. Since Chen Guo, Jiangnan has only fought with Zheng Guo, and there are no foreign enemies. In the same period, the state of Zheng not only often fought with the state of Chen, but also fought with the grassland people in the west, the barbarians in the north and the Chu people in the East.

It's hard to make a real handsome man without war.

After the founding of the Sui Dynasty, there was no war in Jiangnan, or the Yang family intended to do it. After the founding of the people's Republic of China, the Sui Dynasty continued to expand its territory, but Jiangnan was always peaceful. They drove the barbarians into the barren mountains to the north, fought openly and secretly with Mengyuan to the west, swallowed up more than half of the eastern Chu to the East, and fought with the he people after destroying the merchants in the southwest.

Jiangnan has not smelled the smell of gunsmoke for 200 years.

Now, war and war have finally spread here. The moment the gunfire on tengnuo mountain ignited, it was like a spark falling on a famous painting handed down, burning a hole.

The hole is small, but if a gust of wind blows, the whole painting may be burned.

TU was very satisfied with the hole. He really felt the power of the firearm. He was in a particularly good mood. The elite team of more than 10000 people in Muli looked so weak in front of 20 guns. In the two hundred years since the founding of the Sui Dynasty, the most frightening arrow array for foreign enemies was like a basket of eggs in front of the artillery. A stone smashed most of them.

He began to fantasize that he didn't need too much. If there were 100 guns, it would be enough to clean up the Iron Army, which was known as the invincible in the world. Even though the defenses of those armored troops are unparalleled, it is because of this heavy armor that it is difficult for them to dodge when facing artillery.

Tu seemed to have seen the scene when he stepped on the flag of the armored army.

The reason why he would rather risk being punished by the master behind Tonggu academy than avoid the armored army is that he is waiting for these firearms. He knew why Tonggu academy wanted to cultivate himself, which was nothing more than a stone blocking Yang Jian. If it's blocked, everyone will be happy. If you can't stop it, Tonggu academy will not be sad because of its own death.

But Tu could not regard himself as a stone. Even a stone should be a boulder high enough to be higher than the sky.

Before he felt that he was not ready to fight Yang Jian, no one could force him to go to the battlefield in advance. He knew that his cultivation was strong enough to fight one-on-one with Yang Jian. But this is not what he wants. What he wants is to completely defeat Yang Jian. That includes defeating the armored army. Victory cannot be discounted. To win, we must win completely.

Muli's men and horses were used to test the power of the artillery, and Tu also had a little more confidence.

"Scar face"

He glanced at his newly promoted confidant: "you said the caravan was attacked when it left Muping? How much did it lose?"

The person named Scarface is a Scarface. The name Scarface is not his real name. But Tu liked to call him Scarface, so he didn't have his original name. He had a scar on his face, starting from his left temple to his right temple, across his forehead.

The wound is a little strange. According to the truth, unless the wound is deliberately cut by someone, it is difficult to have such a wound on the battlefield. But the wound was not cut by someone, nor was it cut on the battlefield, but he drew it with a dagger.

"Back to the Lord, about 150 muskets and two cannons were lost. The attackers appeared at night. They should have watched our team when they were in Muping city. They were very accurate. They fled after killing, but we didn't take our things away. Obviously, there were not many people. My subordinates heard that it was late when they took people there. The team died and the muskets were smashed, The artillery was also destroyed. "

"Do you have a clue?"

Tu asked.

"My subordinates suspect that it will not be done by any big force. If Yang Shunhui's people or Mufu's people won't destroy those things, they all have enough people to carry them away. So my subordinates infer that it should be a coincidence. There are many robbers outside Muping city who rob passing caravans for a living. If my subordinates' speculation is correct, they should meet us in the city Our people looked at the goods of the merchants of the eastern Chu Dynasty and thought it was profitable, so they attacked our camp. "

Tu nodded: "you don't have to worry about anything."

"My subordinates have handled it well. Those guns and artillery have sunk into the bottom of a small lake, and the scene has been cleaned up. It looks like it's just killing and robbing goods. This kind of thing is not uncommon, and it should not arouse the suspicion of Yang Shunhui or Mu Fu."

"Well"

Tu nodded: "Go ahead. It's time to talk to the rich families in the city and ask them to hand over half of their possessions to buy their lives. If they don't want to, they can take all of them directly. You can take the money directly and go to Mouping to continue trading with foreigners. I want 100 guns and 20000 muskets. If the money is not enough, I'll order the team to expand around and kill several counties A lot. "

"Here"

The scar face hung his head and said, "however, it's hard for the Ross to take out such a big tree."

"That is to do business with the people of the opru empire. As long as you give enough money, there will always be people who are not afraid of death."

"Subordinates understand."

"And"

Tu thought for a moment and said, "it's the Mid Autumn Festival in a few days. Please invite Zheng Qiu, general of Shuishi Normal University, to Liuzhou city for a banquet. This man..."

He paused and turned to look at the man standing on the other side: "sirang, on the night of the Mid Autumn Festival, take your people to Dahong river. The sailors never listen to my orders. In the future, if you want to develop, you can't do without the sailors, but I don't want a disobedient Navy. Send those people to hell on the night of the Mid Autumn Festival. There is a bright moon in hell..."

The young man named Shiro smiled coldly: "don't worry, Lord. I'll send them all the way."

……

……

The waterways in the south of the Yangtze River are crisscrossed, and the Dahong river has a wide waterway. A river like this in the North must be much more famous than in the south of the Yangtze River. But in the south of the Yangtze River, the water flow like the Dahong river is too common. Before the great Sui Dynasty destroyed Chen, it began to build the Yangtze River Navy. It took ten years, and finally built an unparalleled fleet in the world. It is precisely because of this fleet that the Sui army can break into Jiangnan.

Before that, the naval forces in Jiangnan were always proud. In their view, the Yangtze River was a natural danger and treasure given to them by heaven, but in the eyes of the enemy, the Yangtze River was only a natural danger. When the north and the South stood side by side, Zheng could not invade Jiangnan because the naval forces were not as good as Chen. Chen could not invade Jiangbei because they could not defeat Zheng's infantry on land.

The great Sui Dynasty changed this situation. The establishment of the Yangtze River Navy symbolized the beginning of a new generation.

On the day of crossing the river, the Yangtze River Navy frightened Chen Guoshui's Navy as soon as it appeared. Chen Guoren really couldn't imagine how the Sui people suddenly had such a huge fleet. Hundreds of giant ships, thousands of Huanglong ships, and countless centipede express ships almost filled the Yangtze River waterway.

That war, the great Sui water division left a great reputation.

Later, after the pacification of the south of the Yangtze River, although the scale of the Yangtze River navy was slightly reduced and the warships damaged in the war were abandoned and not repaired, it still has suffocating combat effectiveness. After the war, the Yangtze River Navy still has 160 Pang ships, thousands of Huanglong ships, 500 Baiya ships, and of course, the flagship specially built for the emperor of the great Sui Dynasty Tenglong giant ship.

Such a powerful force is enough to deter Jiangnan.

After the rebellion in the northwest, Emperor Tianyou Yang Yi transferred Chang Jiang Shui division to the north. Later, Wang Yiqu, the general of Chang Jiang Shui division, rebelled and left about one-third of the fleet. The other one-third was in the hands of Luo Tu, while Fang Xie and the imperial court accounted for the other one-third. However, in terms of combat power, Wang Yiqu's fleet was the strongest. 70% of the best equipped and strongest white tooth ships were in the north In the hands of Wang Yiqu.

At present, Luo Tu's navy has 36 big boats, 270 yellow dragons, 90 white teeth, and the Tenglong warship that the emperor of the Sui Dynasty only boarded once after it was completed. Zheng Qiu, the general of the Navy, was the commander of the Tenglong warship. Wang Yiqu didn't dare to take the ship when he went north, otherwise his rebellious heart was too obvious.

Now, the ship is in Rotu's hands.

Because of the ship, Rotu always thought it was a providence.

The Tenglong warship is more than 200 meters long. Such a huge wooden warship is the only one since ancient times. The warship has four floors and the ship building is built like a palace. Because it is too large, the ship can only walk on a wide river, and the water is a little shallow.

At that time, in order to build the Tenglong warship, the best craftsmen of the Sui Dynasty were gathered, and it took six years to build it. At that time, those who participated in the construction of the Tenglong warship firmly believed that even if the ship went to sea, it was also the overlord of the majestic sea.

Now, this ship is the flagship of the Rotu fleet.

Zheng Qiu has been the commander of the Tenglong warship since 17 years ago, but he has never seen the emperor. Tianyou emperor Yang Yi is the most reluctant to travel in the history of the Sui Dynasty, and he has never seen his warship, which symbolizes his imperial identity. If he has seen this large ship, he will be proud.

Only a country like the great Sui Dynasty could create such a behemoth.

Zheng Qiu stood in the bow of the boat, staring at the bright moon reflected on the water. The navy has been here for more than a month, and he has deliberately avoided luotu. Zheng Qiu has never had a good impression of the young man.

"General... A guest is visiting."

Just when he was in a daze, the personal Colonel didn't come and said in his ear.

"Who?"

"General Muli!"

Hearing the name, Zheng Qiu's face suddenly changed: "he's not dead?"

The private captain said, "not only him, but also another man followed. It doesn't look like Muli's men. It seems that Muli respects him very much."

"Please"

Zheng Qiu hesitated and decided to meet Muli. He always felt that if he drove this man away today, he would miss something important. I don't know why he denied his first decision. He had heard that Muli arrived, and his first reaction was to take this man and send him to luotu army. The second reaction is to drive this person away. The third reaction is... This person must meet.
