Chapter 818 The Third Reaction

Tengnuo Mountain is located in the west of Liuzhou City. The scenery in Jiangnan is that mountains are everywhere, and there are water. From a distance, there are freehand landscapes, and from a close distance, there are fine brushwork and detailed descriptions. In the distance, there is the beauty of seeing far away, and in the near distance, there is the beauty of seeing close distance.

Or because of this beautiful land, many literary masters were born in Jiangnan. Of course, there are also politicians who influence the world. However, no matter in the previous dynasty or the contemporary, Jiangnan has ever produced any handsome talent who can truly leave a name in history.

Looking at the nearly thousand years of history, famous generals emerged in the Northern Dynasties, and the reincarnation of several generations of imperial courts in Jiangnan was rare to see a general who won every battle. This may be related to the frequent battles in Jiangnan. The places north of the Yangtze River have repeatedly fought foreign wars, so talents in the army have continued to rise. Since the Chen Kingdom, Jiangnan has only fought with Zheng Kingdom and had no foreign enemies. At the same time, Zheng Kingdom not only often fought with Chen Kingdom, but also continued to fight with the grassland people in the west, the barbarians in the north, and the Chu people in the east.

Without war, it is difficult to produce a real handsome talent.

Since the founding of the Great Sui Kingdom, there was no war in Jiangnan singing and dancing, or the Yang family had intentionally done it. After the founding of the Kingdom, the Great Sui Kingdom continued to expand its territory, but Jiangnan had been peaceful. He drove the barbarians to the north into the barren mountains, fought with the Mongolian and Yuan in the west, and swallowed up most of the Eastern Chu in the east. After the destruction of Shang in the southwest, he repeatedly went to war with the He people.

It has been two hundred years since the south of Jiangnan.

Now, the war and war finally spread here. The moment the artillery fire on Tenno Mountain was ignited, it was like a little spark falling on a famous painting that had passed down from generation to generation, burning a hole.

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

Tu was very satisfied with the cave. He was in a particularly good mood when he truly felt the power of the firearm. Mu Li's elite team of more than 10,000 people seemed so weak in front of twenty artillery guns. The arrow formation that had made foreign enemies scared the most in the 200 years since the founding of the Great Sui Kingdom was like a basket of eggs in front of the artillery guns. A stone was thrown into it and smashed most of them.

He began to fantasize that there was no need for too many. If there were a hundred artillery pieces, it would be enough to clean the iron armored army, which was known as the invincible one. Even though the defense of those iron armored troops was unparalleled, it was precisely because of the bulky iron armor that they could hardly dodge when facing the artillery pieces.

Tu seemed to have seen the scene where he stepped on the battle flag of the Iron Armored Army under his feet.

The reason why he would rather be punished by the master behind Tonggu Academy than avoid the Iron Armored Army was waiting for these firearms. He knew why Tonggu Academy wanted to cultivate himself, it was nothing more than blocking a stone from Yang Jian. If it was blocked, everyone would be happy. If it could not be blocked, Tonggu Academy would not be sad because of its own death.

But Tu cannot regard himself as a stone. Even if it is a stone, it must be a huge rock that is taller than the sky.

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

The power of the cannon was tested with Muli's troops, and the Tu also gained more confidence.

"Scarface"

He glanced at his newly promoted confidant: "You said the caravan was attacked when he left Mouping? How much did he lose?"

The person named Scarface is a Scarface. The name Scarface is not actually his real name. But Tu likes to call him Scarface, so he lost his original name. There is a scar on his face, starting from the left temple to the right temple, and running across his forehead.

This injury is a bit weird. According to the principle, unless it is a wound that is deliberately cut, it is difficult to have such injuries on the battlefield. However, this injury is not cut by someone, nor is it cut by someone on the battlefield, but it is cut by him with a dagger.

"Go back to the prince, he lost about one hundred and fifty muskets and two cannons. The attackers appeared at night. They probably stared at our team when they were in Mouping City. They started very accurately and ran away after killing people. However, we didn't take away our things. Obviously, there were not many people. It was too late to take them over after hearing this. The team was dead, the muskets were smashed, and the cannons were destroyed."

"Do you have a clue?"

Slaughter.

"I suspect that it was not the major forces that did it. If it was from Yang Shunhui or from Mu Mansion, they would not destroy those things. They had enough people to transport the things away. So it should be a coincidence. There were many robbers outside the city of Muping, who made a living by robbing passing caravans. If the subordinates had good speculation, they should have seen our people in the city looking at the purchase of Dongchu merchants' goods, thinking it was profitable, so they attacked the camp."

Tu nodded: "You don't have to worry about anything like this."

"The subordinates have already dealt with it. The muskets and cannons have sank into the bottom of a small lake, and the scene has been cleaned up. It seems that they are just killing people and robbing goods. This kind of thing is not uncommon and should not arouse suspicion from Yang Shunhui or Mu Mansion."

"Um"

Tu nodded: "Go, it's time to talk to the rich households in the city, and let each household hand over half of their property to buy their lives. If you don't want to, take them all away. You can take the money you get directly in charge of Mouping and continue trading with foreigners. I want one hundred cannons and twenty thousand muskets. If the money is not enough, I will order the team to expand around, and it will be much better for Tu several counties."

"Here"

Scarface lowered his head and said, "However, the Ross is afraid it will be difficult for such a big tree."

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

"I understand."

"besides"

Tu thought for a while and said, "Mid-Autumn Festival will be in a few days. Please invite the Navy General Zheng Qiu to come to Liuzhou City for a banquet. This person..."

He paused for a moment and turned to look at the person standing on the other side: "Silang, on Mid-Autumn Festival night, take your people to Dahong River. The people of the Navy have never listened to my orders. If you want to develop in the future, you cannot live without the Navy. But I don't want a disobedient navy. Send those people to hell on Mid-Autumn Festival night, there is also a bright moon in hell..."

The young man named Silang smiled coldly: "Don't worry, prince, I will send them all the way."

...

...

The waterways in the south of the Yangtze River are interspersed and the waterways of the Dahong River are very wide. In the north, such a big river must be much larger than in the south of the Yangtze River, but in the south of the Yangtze River, the water flows like the Dahong River are too ordinary. Before the Great Sui Dynasty destroyed the Chen Dynasty, it began to build the Yangtze River Navy. After ten years, it finally built an unparalleled fleet. It was precisely because of this fleet that the Sui army could attack Jiangnan with unstoppable momentum.

Before this, the naval army in Jiangnan was in awe. In their eyes, the Yangtze River was the natural danger and treasure given to them by God, and in the eyes of the enemy, the Yangtze River only had the word "natural danger". When the north and south were united, Zheng State could not attack Jiangnan because the naval army was not as good as Chen State. The Chen State could not attack Jiangbei because they could not defeat Zheng State's infantry on land.

The Great Sui Dynasty changed this situation, and 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 the Chen Navy as soon as it appeared. The Chen people really couldn't imagine how the Sui people suddenly had such a huge fleet, hundreds of giant ships, thousands of large Yellow Dragon ships, and countless centipede and fast ships, almost blocked the Yangtze River waterways.

In that battle, the Sui Navy left a great reputation.

Later, after the pacification of Jiangnan, although the size of the Yangtze River Navy was slightly removed and the warships damaged in the war were abandoned and repaired, it still had suffocating combat power. After the war, the Yangtze River Navy still had 160 giant ships, thousands of large yellow dragon ships, 500 large white-toothed ships, and of course, the flagship specially built for the Emperor of the Sui Dynasty...the Tenglong ship.

Such powerful power is enough to shock the south of the Yangtze River.

After the rebellion in the northwest, Emperor Tianyou Yang Yi transferred the Yangtze River Navy to the north. Later, the Yangtze River Navy General Wang Yiqu rebelled, leaving about one-third of the fleet. The other third was in the hands of Luo Tu, while Fang Jie and the court accounted for another third. However, in terms of combat power, the fleet in Wang Yiqu's hands was the most powerful. Seventy percent of the white-fanged ships with the best and most powerful equipment were in the hands of Wang Yiqu.

Now Luo Tu's navy has thirty-six large ships, 270 yellow dragons, 90 white teeth, and the Tenglong warship that the Emperor of the Sui Dynasty only boarded once after its completion. Navy General Zheng Qiu was the commander of the Tenglong warship. When Wang Yiqu headed north, he did not dare to take this ship, otherwise the rebellion would have been too obvious.

Now, the ship fell into Luo Tu's hands.

Because of this ship, Luo Tu always felt that this was a kind of will.

The Tenglong battleship is more than 200 meters long. Such a huge wooden warship is the only one from ancient times to the present. The warship has four floors and the ship tower is built like a palace. Because it is too big, the ship can only walk on a wide river channel, and the water is a little shallow and cannot pass through.

At that time, in order to build this Tenglong warship, the best craftsmen from the Sui Dynasty were gathered together, and it took six years to complete the construction. Those who participated in the construction of the Tenglong ship at that time believed that even if the ship went out to sea and ocean, it was a sensational overlord on the sea.

Now, this ship is the flagship of the Luotu Fleet.

Zheng Qiu has been the commander general of the Tenglong ship seventeen years ago, but he has never seen the emperor. Emperor Tianyou Yang Yi is the least favorite to travel in the history of the Sui Dynasty, and he has never seen his warship symbolizing the identity of an emperor. If he had seen this big ship, he would be proud.

Only countries like the Great Sui Dynasty can create such a behemoth.

Zheng Qiu stood at the bow of the boat, staring at the bright moon reflected on the water. The navy had been staying here for more than a month, and he had been deliberately avoiding Luo Tu. Zheng Qiu had never had any good impression of that young man.

"The general...a visitor."

Just as he was in a daze, the personal lieutenant could not come and said in his ear.

"who?"

"General Mu Li!"

Hearing this name, Zheng Qiu's face suddenly changed: "He is not dead?"

The personal captain said, "It's not just him, but another person follows him. He doesn't look like Mu Li's subordinates. He makes every move, and it seems that Mu Li respects him very much."

"please"
