Chapter 18 My own war

Yuan Da is worthy of being a master in the officialdom. After hearing Yun Ye's words, he shook his robes, sat back, waved to the office clerks and staff who came in, and immediately retreated like a tide, surpassing Yun Ye and cupping their hands.

He said: "It makes Marquis Yun laugh. I don't want to hear about a giant bandit harming the people. What I did just now was a bit rude. I hope Marquis Yun will not blame you."

"Where, where, Lord Yuanfu cares about the people and is a true lover of the people. How can Yun Ye be surprised? That man is now in our army. If he wants to survive, he must fight bravely and make contributions.

Mr. Fu will never have to worry about him again."

Yuan Dake responded with a smile, stroked his beard and said to Yun Ye: "It's just a pity that the subordinate failed to fulfill his duties as a local official in the matter of arresting Ren Xiong."

People say that local officials are naughty, and Yun Ye has seen it. This guy actually wants to get a share of the credit for catching thieves and bandits. It's obvious that if Yun Ye doesn't agree, there will be problems with the placement of those Dingkou.

"I am a bandit captured on the ground in Dengzhou. How could I lack the cooperation of the Dengzhou government office? However, I think this is a trivial matter and not worth reporting. Since the government official is interested, please give me a stroke of your pen.

I will report to you on behalf of my lord, and I will be the one who will be named you when the time comes."

Yuan Dake's fat face was wrinkled into chrysanthemums with joy. Yun Ye didn't care, but he did. It was his duty to appease and stabilize the place. In this way, his own resume in the Qing Dynasty Department would be more beautiful.

, cupped his hands and promised with his mouth full:

"Don't worry Marquis Yun. Our laws in the Tang Dynasty have always been merciful. Since the chief culprit has been brought to justice, it is appropriate to let the rest of Cong escape and give them a way to survive. I will order people to clear the land for them. This land of Dengzhou,

Now there are more fishermen than farmers. There is still some vacant land. Just give them a measure of wealth. Ever since Mr. Hou taught the fishermen how to make salted fish and fish for seaweed, the fishermen on the seaside have an extra livelihood. Compared with

It's much better to eat from the land. This is a good thing that benefits all people. The official is about to report this matter. Please ask Marquis Yun not to blame the official for taking the decision without authorization." Faced with the behavior of the people carrying the sedan chair.

Yun Ye and Yuan Dake could only look at each other and laugh.

After leaving the government office in a happy mood, Yun Ye ran all the way back to the camp. After sitting down in the handsome tent, he saw Lai Chuanfeng leading the old man in.

"Reporting back to the commander, Mr. Liu has finished testing the incendiary bombs. He is very satisfied with the effect of the incendiary bombs." Yun Ye nodded and asked Lai Chuanfeng to go down. He walked from behind the desk to the old man, smiling and waiting for the old man to praise him.

"The old man Liu Fang has met Marquis Yun. Marquis Yun is indeed a young hero with a thoughtful mind. With that incendiary bomb, Dahei Mountain will definitely become a sea of ​​fire, and Beisha City will be destroyed without attack. The old man admires it. I admire it. I am convinced that I lost.

."

The old man Liu Fang also smiled and bowed his hands to Yun Ye, accepting defeat.

Yun Ye swallowed his saliva and asked with difficulty: "May I ask, are you Liu Fang and Liu Yunshan who marched thousands of miles to defeat Linyi and stabilize Lingnan?"

The old man chuckled and said: "It's me. Isn't it strange to see me? It is rumored that I died in the army due to foot disease after conquering Linyi. Don't you doubt it now that you see me?"

"You must have Master Li's letters with you. I am more confident in him than in myself. He said that you are Liu Fang and Liu Yunshan, so you must be the Duke of Lu in the former Sui Dynasty. How dare I be disrespectful."

After all, the identity still needs to be confirmed. Liu Fang took out a letter from his arms and handed it over. Yun Ye didn't show any pretense. He opened it and read it from beginning to end. He paid attention to the secret code that Li Gang usually didn't use when writing letters.

It is indeed Li Gang's personal letter.

"Mr. Liu, you have done such a terrible job to this boy." Looking at Liu Fang Yunye still couldn't help but let out a sigh.

"Why is this? I'm afraid it's the first time I meet you today. Why did Marquis Yun say this?" Liu Fang couldn't figure out why Yun Ye said this.

"You led the army to wreak havoc in Lingnan for half a year, and then returned with a full load. Less than forty years after you conquered Linyi, the younger generation also led the army to Annan. You had already looted all the good things forty years ago.

, the younger generation was knocking bones and sucking out the marrow to find treasures in Annan, but few of them caught their eye. The natives said that you had taken away their savings for hundreds of years, and even if I killed them, I couldn't get out the treasures.

This junior almost left in vain and almost couldn't explain to the officials in the court. At that time, I even wanted to dig out the landmark bronze pillar that Ma Yuan had nailed there. This junior is in such a miserable state, why can't I just complain?"

Liu Fang leaned back and forth with laughter, pointed at Yun Ye and said: "You boy, do you think I don't know what happened in Annan? The money you brought back almost filled Chang'an's treasury, not to mention the rice and grain to relieve the disaster in Hebei. Now

It has become a geomantic treasure land for the Tang Dynasty to replenish its surplus grain, aren’t you satisfied?”

"Mr. Liu, why don't we wait until things here are settled and we go on an expedition to Chenla? I heard from the merchants who came back from the voyage that it is very rich there. One vote is equivalent to a year's tax of our Tang Dynasty. What do you think?"

"Marquis Yun, please tell me why you led the troops deep into Annan. The soldiers did not suffer from weak feet and returned home safely. Why? You must know that I had a narrow escape back then. Of the 30,000 soldiers, 45 out of 10 died.

for various diseases.”

Yun Ye did not say anything, but pulled out a scroll from the book, spread it out on the case, pointed at the map and said to Liu Fang: "Mr. Liu, if you want to make a fortune in these places, you must avoid the rainy season and you must evacuate before July."

Go out of Annan, otherwise the continuous heavy rain will not only hurt the feet, but also the folds of the lower body. The skin will be ulcerated when it is often exposed to moisture. Moreover, that time is also the most terrifying time for leeches, snakes and insects. You are in August

It is not surprising at all that when we marched and fought in the moon, epidemics were rampant.

When I went to Annan, the soldiers spent most of the time by boat and walked very little. I also prepared enough medicinal materials. The soldiers fought quickly and collected loot quickly, so it was fine for us to go to Annan. "

Liu Fang looked at the map and sighed, patted the table and said: "Your Majesty would rather build dragon boats than build a few more warships, otherwise why would this happen?"

These words made Yun Ye very scared. He knew that his Majesty was referring to Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty, not Li Er. Now Yun Ye was a little worried that this old guy would incite him to rebel? He heard about it when he arrived in Dengzhou.

The rebellion in Shu has been put down, but the heads of the Li people were pickled with lime and they brought back one or two hundred carts.

Yun Ye did not hope that one day his head would be pickled with lime and put in a box to show to Li Er. In the early years of the Tang Dynasty, no matter how powerful you were, as long as you were a rebel, you would not be able to escape this fate.

"Okay, I won't talk anymore. The affairs of the former Sui Dynasty have been settled. If I hadn't been quick to seize the opportunity, maybe the bones would have been buried in Jingguan by the Liao River and I would have brought the remains of my old friends home.

, it can be considered that I have done my best for the former Sui Dynasty, let’s not worry about that, let’s think about how to kill the Korean fleet in Samsanpo.”

"Okay, okay, look, this is the topographic map sent by my caravan. Look, what else do you need? Look, this is the composition of the Korean fleet at Samsanpo. Good guy, it's a total of five hundred searches.

The warship, although a bit small..."

Ren Xiong took Lai Chuanfeng and other fifty men, disguised as merchants, and went to Beisha City with spices unique to the Tang Dynasty. As for Shan Ying, Wu Shi, and Gou Zi, they had long gone without knowing where they were.

In the army, the three of them are free men, and no one can or will control them.

Yun Ye goes to see the ice conditions at the seaside every day. Small boats can sail back and forth between Goryeo and Tang Dynasty on the edge of the sea ice, but it is impossible for those heavy warships to dock.

Early this morning, Yun Ye rode Wangcai and galloped towards the seaside, followed closely by his personal guards. Yesterday, some large pieces of ice began to break away from the ice bed. I don't know what will happen today.

The ice on the seaside freezes quickly and disappears quickly. When Yun Ye came to the seaside, the sea was already covered with ice floes, colliding with each other, and gradually drifting towards the sea driven by the waves.

"The sea is open. A group of crazy children are running barefoot on the already soft beach, constantly calling for news of the open sea. Next to the upside-down fishing boats on the beach, there are all busy fishermen.

The man took some flexible bark and twine to fill the gaps in the bottom of the boat. The beach exuded a strong smell of tung oil.

The women were busy weaving and mending the nets, and the shuttles in their hands kept shuttling back and forth. Everyone's face was filled with joy. Some early-arriving seagulls had already appeared on the sea, in the gaps between the ice floes.

While looking for fish and shrimps, there is still a bit of cold sea breeze blowing on the body. Soon, the hands and feet will become cold, but it still cannot conceal the joy of the fishermen to open the sea.

Yun Ye saw many people dressed as businessmen holding some white paper for the fishermen to press their fingerprints. After pressing their fingerprints, they would put more or less copper coins in the hands of the smiling fishermen. This is

It was agreed that when the fishermen catch the seafood, they should sell it to them as soon as possible.

Yun Ye, who was dressed in armor, looked so out of place among these happy crowds that everyone stayed away from him, as if getting close to him would bring bad luck.

It's true. These are some good people, some kind-hearted people. Only the horizontal knife on their waist wants to drink blood. Tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, the most terrifying murder weapon of the Tang Dynasty will be docked. The ship's side is as high as the city wall.

Sails as high as white clouds will soon fill this sea area.

When ferocious beasts come out of their traps, there are few who will not eat people. Yun Ye is secretly glad that he was born in an extremely powerful period. If this is the darkest period in this land, he doesn't know how he will survive it.

"Commander, there is an official document from the Ministry of War, please return to the camp to deal with it." A messenger ran over on a fast horse.

Yun Ye turned back and looked at the sea again. As soon as the sea opens, the war will begin. However, this is his own battle and has nothing to do with Datang, because all the people participating in the war are just pirates.

ps: The second section was delivered. I didn’t expect to take a nap and sleep until dark. Fortunately, I arrived in time.
