Chapter 742

"General Ye."

Yue Yun and ye Qingyun on the wharf of haigucheng gave each other a military salute.

Looking at the soldiers coming up from the merchant ship, Yue Yun breathed heavily. He said, "general ye, the barbarian army is expected to arrive in the afternoon. It depends on the general whether the ancient city of the sea can be guarded."

"General Yue is at ease. The emperor has an order that Ben will do his best to keep the ancient city of Hai." Ye Qingyun said.

Hearing the speech, Yue Yun's face relaxed.

Then he looked at the merchants looking around on the dock and asked, "what do these people do?"

Without waiting for ye Qingyun to say that, Liang Dahai added, "these are the slave captors from Qingzhou. They all want to take advantage of this opportunity to catch some slaves back in Korea."

He put forward the plan to capture slaves. His original intention was to let Liang Dahai come to Korea to take part in the capture of slaves, but now this situation obviously surprised him.

Seeing Yue Yun's confusion, Liang Dahai tells Yue Yun about Xiao Ming's opening up of private slavery, which is clear to Yue Yun.

"It's a pity that the price of a young slave in Qingzhou is at least 30 liang of silver. If only the slave boat catches 100 people at a time, the profit will be 3000 Liang." Yue Yun pondered and said.

Liang Dahai nodded, "even so, the supply can't meet the demand. Now Qingzhou is not just a place where merchants and nobles keep slaves. It's said that the rich people also start to keep slaves to cultivate their land. Maybe it's for this reason that the emperor will allow private slaves this time."

At this time, ye Qingyun looked at the slave captors. They were all wearing armor and carrying shining weapons, just like a small army.

Slavery is a dangerous job, so many businessmen will hire some ferocious people to do it, and they only need to provide ships and weapons.

While talking about slaves, the group walked to Haigu city.

In the city, Yue Yun introduced to Ye Qingyun the ancient city of Hai and the current situation of Koryo.

"It's Bei Shan again. He's haunted. It's a pity that he didn't kill him in Jizhou." Ye Qingyun said with regret.

"No, this Bei Shan hates the state of Dayu the most. Now he can do anything for revenge." Yue Yun said, "there is a man named Li Chengzai in the ancient city of the sea. He told us that the reason for the truce between the barbarians and the Japanese was that Bei Shan asked for the Japanese's fire rope gun craft."

"Li Cheng is there? Is that Korean man who defected to you?" Ye Qingyun asked. Before he came, he also read a lot of information.

Yue Yun nodded, "yes, it's him. His father has an important position in Liujing city. What he said should be true."

"The secret guard didn't know anything about such an important thing. It seems that the secret guard can't do something." Ye Qingyun shook his head with a bitter smile.

"It would be terrible if they knew everything." Yue Yun can see clearly.

Ye Qingyun chuckled and said, "even if the barbarians have firecrackers, they have never met before in the battlefield. King Yan, King Zhao and King Liang all have a group of firecrackers, but they have not been beaten by our firecrackers. Moreover, this time we came to the ancient city of Haihe, we also brought some heavy muskets just made by the military workshop."

Yue Yun showed his interest. Now both the army and navy are very sensitive to new equipment. After all, the war advantage brought by weapons makes them bigger and stronger.

"Let me see what this heavy musket is," he said in a quick voice

Ye Qingyun is like a naughty boy eager to show off. He takes Yue Yun to the outside, and then calls a soldier to let him transfer the heavy musket.

Soon two soldiers came running towards them, one carrying a huge flint gun, the other carrying a wooden box.

They stopped in front of Yue Yun. At this time, ye Qingyun said to Yue Yun, "this is the heavy muskets. For the sake of this war, the Emperor himself allocated 100 such heavy muskets from the military workshop."

Yue Yun's eyes were dull. In his eyes, what he was facing was an enlarged flint gun. However, in addition to the big one, the heavy smoothbore gun was different in that it had a support in the middle.

The heavy-duty muskets can be rotated up and down, left and right through this support, so that the heavy-duty muskets can strike in any direction.

"How powerful is this?" Yue Yun sighed.

"It's more powerful than muskets. It's very good against cavalry and infantry. It's enough to cause a lot of casualties to the enemy by erecting this thing at the city walls and gates." Ye Qingyun said confidently.

As they were saying this, a scout came to report to Yue Yun and said, "general, the barbarian vanguards have arrived at haigucheng. They are waiting for the follow-up troops to arrive."

Smell speech, Yue Yun and ye Qingyun look at each other, look a little more dignified.

At this time, ye Qingyun said to Yue Yun, "General Yue, it's up to us to guard the city. This time, we were going to let Bei Shan stay here."

After that, ye Qingyun doesn't turn back. He takes his soldiers to the north gate and goes up to the city wall. He takes out his telescope to see the environment around the ancient city of Yanhai, and his heart is suddenly relaxed.The ancient city of the sea is close to the sea on one side, and the mountains on the East and west sides are overlapping. The barbarians want to conquer the ancient city of the sea only by a frontal attack.

Finding this characteristic of Haigu City, he decisively deployed soldiers and weapons on the north wall, and also transported heavy muskets and field guns to the wall.

When ye Qingyun was ready, the barbarian army arrived at the ancient city of Hai one after another, and the continuous barbarian army became a long black dragon on the earth.

In the evening, all the barbarian troops seemed to arrive. At this time, ye Qingyun also completed the preparations for the war, waiting for the barbarians to attack the city.

"This time the barbarians brought in a lot of guns. It seems that they are going to open the gate in our way."

With the color of dusk, Yue Yun saw the cannons in the barbarian army. There were 100 cannons, which made him feel a layer of pressure.

For the artillery, the gate was basically empty. As soon as the gate was broken, the barbarians would drive the slave soldiers into the city and defeat them with the advantage of number.

So after hesitation, he said to Yue Yun, "now let Li Cheng look for some sand in a bag and pile it up at the gate of the city. As for how to pile it up, I will send someone to tell him in person."

Yue Yun's face was heavy. Yue Yun's face made him understand that the battle was not so easy. He nodded and went down the city wall to find Li Chengzai himself.

He is much better than Yue Yun on the sea, but he still has to listen to the veteran who has experienced many battles. Now he only hopes to defend the ancient city of the sea.
