The sea breeze blew gently, and the third child swayed slowly on the mast, still talking calmly:
"In any case, Tamna Island is the undisputed territory of the Yuan Dynasty. After the Yuan Dynasty, this dynasty naturally inherited the sovereignty here. This is something that the King of Goryeo also recognized to this dynasty."
"Oh, the King of Korea also admitted it to me?" Lao Si's eyes lit up.
"That's right, although they have always wanted to take Tamluo back while we were not paying attention. But they also knew very well that this must be done with the consent of this dynasty. In the fifth year of Hongwu, Goryeo submitted the "Tamluo Plan Report" to the emperor, to the effect
He requested that Tamluo be handed over to Goryeo for custody, so that the survivors of the Yuan Dynasty on the island would belong to Goryeo, and he promised to continue to pay tribute to this dynasty in accordance with the management model of horse herding in the Yuan Dynasty." Zhu Chensheng said:
"So, there is no doubt that Tamluo belongs to our Ming Dynasty."
"Then the emperor agreed?" Lao Si asked.
"The emperor neither agreed to hand it over to Korea, nor did he agree to them sending troops. He only asked them to order Muhu on the island to offer horses." The third son said solemnly: "The Korean people are very dishonest, so they used the excuse that Muhu refused to surrender to the island.
The Ming Dynasty sacrificed horses and mobilized all the troops to capture Tamna. This happened in the winter of the year before last."
"So, they are attacking my Ming Dynasty territory without consent?" Lao Si and others were shocked.
"Logically, that's it! Do you understand now? It's them who should be feeling guilty!" The third child said with a shaky smile:
"The court of this country is full of lies and is good at deceiving. For example, they said in the "Tamna Plan", 'The people of Tamra are the people of Goryeo. Since the founding of the country, they have set up the state for pastoral purposes.' This is a big lie.
"Not to mention the distance, let's just say that Tamluo Island has been under the direct jurisdiction of the Yuan Dynasty since the Yuan Dynasty. The emperor of the Yuan Dynasty established the Tamluo Military and Civilian General Administration Office, Horse Ranch, Taipu Temple, Xuanhuiyuan, Zhongzhengyuan, and Senior Government on the island.
Are these yamen in the hospital all fake? But they only talk about the beginning, not the end. This is taken out of context!"
"In addition to raising horses, Tamluo Island was also a place where criminals were exiled in the Yuan Dynasty. Emperor Yuan Shun was exiled here before he came to the throne. Later, when the country was about to be destroyed, he also ordered people to build a palace on the island in preparation for his escape.
Tamluo, however, failed to make the trip because it was defeated too quickly. Therefore, there are not many Koreans on the island, and most of them are Mongolians, Semu and Han people from the Yuan Dynasty. How can there be a "Tamluo Island", that is,
Are you from Korea?'"
"They also said, 'Although the island is small,' when I looked at it today, not only was it not small, it was actually huge! Isn't this just bullying us, none of whom have been here before, and trying to get away with it?!"
"That's right." The fourth child nodded and said with a sullen face: "If the emperor didn't know what was going on and thought this was just a small island with a big nose, he really gave Tamna Island to them. I'm afraid the damn Koreans wouldn't do it either.
They would be grateful, but instead they would be complacent and feel that we are so stupid and easy to deceive.”
"The information provided by Director Hong is very important." Cai Bin and Lin Mi finally couldn't help but show their heads on the deck. The latter said: "It seems that our attitude towards them needs to be changed."
"That's right..." The former also nodded, and then pretended to have just seen the third child, pretending to be surprised and said: "Who hung Master Hong up? What a nonsense! Put him down quickly!"
"Calm down Cai Qianhu, I'm going up there myself." Lao San was still there and said, "This way you won't get seasick, and you can see far."
"Oh, that's it, why don't you continue?" Cai Qianhu asked tentatively.
"Put me down quickly!" The third child suddenly became anxious. "I need to pee!"

Anyone who has read the previous book knows that Tamna is actually an important navigation mark on the way to transport grain. When grain ships heading north see it, they know it is time to turn.
Therefore, the fleet parted ways at this time, with the grain transport team turning northwest and sailing to the Shandong Peninsula; while the two sealing ships sailed to Tamna Port in the north of Tamna Island.
Although Tamna Island is quite big, there are very few that can be used as ports. Tamna Port is the one with the best conditions, and because it is close to the mainland of Goryeo, it is convenient to obtain supplies. Therefore, the military and civilian general office of the Yuan Dynasty was located here.
at.
Half a day later, Tamna Port arrived.
The sudden appearance of two giant ships quickly caused a commotion inside and outside the port.
On the fishing boat, the fishermen who were casting their nets for fishing saw the sudden appearance of the huge ship that covered the sky. They were so frightened that they even dropped their nets and rowed back to escape.
The port soon became chaotic. Officers drove the short Korean soldiers, half of them set up defenses on the shore, and the other half got on the ship and went to sea to meet the enemy.
Goryeo's warships did not use sails and used oars as power. The two ends were raised high, but the middle deck was very low, like a crescent moon. It looked very frustrated, but it was really not slow when rowing.
In the blink of an eye, more than a dozen crescent boats came up to meet them.
When we got closer, the gap between the hulls of the two sides was clearly reflected. Although they were both called boats, the two boats were like elephants that broke into the herd of sheep. They were so different in size.
On the boat, the fourth child asked in confusion: "We are flying the dragon flag, can't they understand?"
"I'm just pretending not to understand." Lao Liu sneered: "Xiao Xiba is always like this. He comes up to make you suffer a loss, and then pretends to flood the Dragon King Temple to make you angry. If you get angry, they will still
Say you have no national character."
"That's easy, let's strike first to gain the upper hand." Lao Si laughed ferociously and glanced at the tool man Cai Qianhu.
"Fire!" Cai Qianhu immediately ordered unceremoniously, and the four cast-iron cannons installed on the bows of the two boats roared and fired four stone bullets!
Even though the shot didn't hit a single shot, it still caused a high splash of water, which looked amazing.
Moreover, the cannon had such an excellent deterrent effect that the Korean warships no longer dared to approach, and watched helplessly as the two sealing ships sailed into Tamna Port.
~~
Because they did not know the hydrological conditions in the harbor, the two boats did not dare to dock rashly, so they anchored in the center of the harbor.
More than a dozen Goryeo warships stood guard at a distance. After more than half an hour, a small boat sailed over with a white flag.
The Korean officers on the ship waved the white flag desperately and shouted "Abba, Abba".
"He said that he came to negotiate in the name of Pu Wanhu." Lin Mi knew Korean, so he acted as the interpreter himself.
"Let him come up." Cai Bin nodded.
After the boat got close, Feng Zhou lowered a long net. The Korean officer on the boat grabbed the rope of the net and climbed up with difficulty.
"Is this a Korean? Why do you look like a Mongolian army?" After the Korean officer came up, the Yulin soldiers looked at him and frowned. "Why do you look so much like a Tatar?"
"Let's do it." Lin Mi said calmly: "Korea was originally a province of the Yuan Dynasty, so the military uniforms were naturally made in the Yuan Dynasty."
After saying that, he started talking to the Goryeo officer Assi Assi. As he was talking, Lin Mi suddenly changed his color. Even though everyone couldn't understand, they knew that he must be swearing.
