"Brother (King Yan!)" Guan Shan and others got off the ship. When they saw Yang Peng, they all looked very excited. Yang Peng smiled and patted Guan Shan on the shoulder, then walked forward and looked at the goods being unloaded from the cargo ship.
, laughed and said: "Okay! It's a great harvest!" Everyone laughed, and Wang Rong said: "We made some statistics on the way, and the value of gold and silver alone is about three million taels of silver. In addition, there are a lot of
The total value of gold and silverware, porcelain, cloth, silk, grain, salt, etc. cannot be calculated at the moment!"
Yang Peng smiled and nodded, "Thank you for your hard work, officers and soldiers of the navy! All officers and soldiers will be rewarded with five taels of silver, and the leader will be rewarded with an additional twenty taels of silver!" All the commanders were overjoyed and thanked them one after another. When the reward order was issued to the entire navy, a
There were thunderous cheers on the dock of time.
At night, cheerful music played in Yang Peng's room, which lasted until late at night before gradually stopping. The night outside was deep, the moon appeared and disappeared behind the clouds, and the green phoenix blew the trees and made a rustling sound.
The sound of beating time came rhythmically, occasionally mixed with a few dog barks.
Yang Peng was lying on the bed, holding a beauty with messy hair and flushed face in his arms. It was none other than Wang Rong, the commander of the navy. Wang Rong gently bit Yang Peng's chest and said angrily.
"How disgusting! It takes such a long time to be intimate once!" Yang Peng stroked Wang Rong's back and said with a smile, "Why don't we just live in the left-behind residence." Yang Peng wrinkled his nose and snorted, "
You don't want it! You have five wives now, and I don't know how many more you will have in the future. I don't want to get involved!" Then he said with a teasing smile: "If your wives fight in the future, it will be very serious.
It’s so lively!”
When Yang Peng heard this, he subconsciously imagined such a scene in his mind and couldn't help but feel ashamed, "It shouldn't happen!" Wang Rong chuckled. Then she squeezed into Yang Peng's arms and closed her eyes, "
Don't move, I'm going to fall asleep." Yang Peng shook her quickly and said, "Sleep slowly, I have something else I want to ask you!"
Wang Rong opened her eyes and raised her head, her bright eyes flashing in the silent night, particularly charming. Yang Peng couldn't help but kissed her lips, "After listening to your report,
I have been thinking about Juehua Island. I am thinking about whether I can occupy Juehua Island?"
Yang Peng asked in confusion: "Why does the elder brother want to occupy an island so far away?"
Yang Peng's fingers gently slid on Wang Rong's skin, and he said with a smile: "Don't you think the location of that island is very important? If it is occupied by us, it will not only restrict the trade between the Khitan people, the Japanese and the Koreans, but also
Being able to threaten the hinterland of the Khitan Kingdom at any time is like a sharp dagger pointed at the Khitan people's buttocks!"
Wang Rong chuckled, rolled her eyes at Yang Peng, lightly hit Yang Peng's chest with her palm, and said angrily: "Just like what you did to me just now!" Yang Peng's heart skipped a beat, and he laughed, "Absolutely.
Almost!" After a pause, "What do you think?" Wang Rong blushed and smiled infatuatedly: "It's good, I feel very comfortable!" Yang Peng was stunned for a moment, and then laughed so hard that he couldn't breathe, "What do you mean?
Where has it gone? I mean the capture of Juehua Island!"
Only then did Yang Peng realize that he had misunderstood. He was embarrassed and annoyed. He punched Yang Peng hard and said angrily: "Just do whatever you want. I don't have any objections anyway." Yang Peng asked: "You are from the navy?"
From a personal perspective, are there any problems?"
Wang Rong thought for a while, "Although the Liao navy still has many more warships than us, we have gunboats and can definitely defeat them! There should be no problem!"
Yang Peng showed a thoughtful look. When he thought about it and was about to rest, he found that the beautiful woman in his arms had already fallen asleep. Yang Peng couldn't help but smile tenderly, kissed her forehead gently, and hugged her
I also closed my eyes...
In the early morning mist, a fast horse galloped into Yanjing City from the east. It rushed all the way to the left-behind residence. The rapid sound of horse hooves woke up the people who had slept soundly all night, breaking the tranquility of the morning. As he galloped, he shouted loudly
: "Good news! Good news from Yingzhou!..."
Zhao Lihua, who was sitting in front of the dressing table in a daze when she heard the commotion on the street outside, couldn't help but frowned and asked loudly: "What's so noisy outside?" A personal maid ran in excitedly, "Princess, Princess
, the prince-in-law won the battle at the front!"
Zhao Lihua shouted angrily: "What prince-in-law?" The palace maid huffed and murmured: "King Yan, isn't King Yan the princess's prince-in-law?" Zhao Lihua snorted and said angrily: "You are not allowed to call me prince-in-law in the future.
My name is King Yan." The palace maid responded, feeling very strange, but she didn't dare to ask.
"Did you just talk about a great victory? Did he win another battle?" The palace maid nodded excitedly, "Just now a messenger came with news that Prince Consort, um, King Yan commanded the navy in Yingzhou to defeat the Liao navy.
Nowadays, the Liao naval forces don’t even dare to come out of the turtle stronghold!”
Zhao Lihua couldn't help but lamented: "The imperial court is constantly defeated by the Khitans, so why does King Yan win so many times?" The palace maid shook her head and said she didn't know. Zhao Lihua was silent for a moment, frowned and asked, "Is King Yan coming back?"
The palace maid shook her head, "This slave doesn't know." Zhao Lihua was a little upset, "Okay, I want to take a rest, please step back." The palace maid responded and retreated.
Zhao Lihua couldn't help but take out the jade pendant given to her by Ni Chengmou, gently caressed it with her slender fingers, and was stunned. Suddenly there were footsteps at the door. Zhao Lihua's thoughts returned to reality, she frowned and shouted angrily: "
Who asked you to come in?" The palace maid hurriedly stopped, looking hesitant. Zhao Lihua turned around and asked angrily: "What's the matter?" The palace maid quickly said: "Mother Princess Pang is here!"
Zhao Lihua was stunned, "Pang Taifei? Is she the former Miss Pang Taishi's family, the concubine of His Majesty Taizong?" The palace maid nodded. Zhao Lihua was very happy and walked out of the door quickly. She walked quickly to the front hall and saw that she was as mature and beautiful as before.
Concubine Pang quickly stepped forward to help her up, and said with a smile: "You and my nephew, why bother?"
Such a gift!" Zhao Lihua couldn't help but feel a warm feeling in her heart, and quickly asked Mrs. Pang to sit down. The two sat down across a small coffee table.
The palace maid brought two bowls of tea and withdrew. Concubine Pang asked with concern: "Is Lihua still getting used to living here?" Zhao Lihua sighed leisurely and nodded, "Are you okay?"
Seeing that Zhao Lihua was in a bad mood, Princess Pang asked puzzledly: "Lihua seems unhappy?" Zhao Lihua couldn't help but said quietly: "I got married according to the decree and gave up my true love. From now on, we will never see each other anywhere in the world. This love can only remain in memories.
Yes!" Concubine Pang's heart moved, and she pointedly said: "Lihua, it's enough for us women to follow a man who can protect ourselves in this life! How about true love? When the sky is overturned and the building is about to collapse, he still wants to preserve it.
I abandon you!"
Zhao Lihua shook her head firmly and murmured: "Ni Lang can't!" Then she realized that she had said the wrong thing and looked at Concubine Pang uneasily. Concubine Pang smiled and said: "Lihua, don't worry about anything! I am your relative.
"You don't have to be taboo about anything in front of me!" Zhao Lihua was deeply moved.
The two exchanged many heart-warming words. When it was almost noon, Mrs. Pang was ready to leave. Zhao Lihua wanted to stay with Mrs. Pang for lunch, but Mrs. Pang declined politely. Zhao Lihua sent Mrs. Pang out of the gate and said goodbye.
Sitting on the carriage, Princess Pang murmured with a smile: "It seems that my good niece has a lover outside! How should I take advantage of this?"
At this time, in the backyard of Liushou Mansion, Zhao Jinxi asked Yelu Hanyu with some uncertainty: "Princess Yelu, do you think we should go see Princess Lihua?"
Yelu Hanyu immediately raised her eyebrows, "Why should we go to see her? She is a princess, and am I not a princess too? Besides, we were the first to come in. Logically speaking, she should be the one to see us!"
Zhao Jinxi felt that what Yelu Hanyu said made sense, so he put the matter down. He raised his head and looked into the distance, with a look of longing on his face, "I wonder how big brother is doing now?" Yelu Hanyu heard her mention Yang Peng,
She was immediately full of resentment, "We ran away on the first day after the wedding, how could we be so unlucky!" The maid chuckled, "It sounds like the eldest brother is running away from the wedding!" Yelu Hanyu also laughed, "Humph.
!Although that’s not the case, doing this is no different from running away from marriage! I think we have to punish him well when he comes back! "
The maid laughed and joked: "I'm afraid that if you talk too much now, he will take down you in a few or two times!" Yelu Hanyu raised his eyebrows, "No way! When he comes back, I will...
..." An evil smile appeared on Yelu Hanyu's face.
Ah! Yang Peng, who was talking to the generals, suddenly sneezed. Yang Peng rubbed his nose and muttered: "Who is talking bad about me behind my back?" He shook his head with a smile and told the matter.
Putting it behind his mind, he glanced at everyone and asked, "Do you understand everything I said?" "I understand!" everyone said in unison.
"Very good! Start preparing now and start taking action tomorrow!" Everyone clasped their fists in agreement and ran down, except Liu Zhiliang who did not leave. Yang Peng asked with a smile, "Is there anything else Zhiliang has to do?" Liu Zhiliang frowned and clasped his fists, "Brother,
This assault on Juehua Island should be led by my younger brother!" Yang Peng said with a smile: "I know you are a little worried about me! There is nothing to worry about! The plan is very thorough and nothing will happen! Just stay here.
Please guard Yuguan for me!" Yang Peng had no choice but to clasp his fists and agree.
The navy officers and soldiers who had just rested for two days were preparing to go to sea again. At the same time, the 10,000 infantry troops were also making preparations before going to sea. At this time, Han Derang, the newly appointed governor of the Bohai Sea in Liao Dynasty, had arrived.
Zhou. "I pay my respects to the imperial aunt!" Han Derang paid homage to Ye Qi Guanyin.
Ye Qi Guanyin handed the seal of the Governor of the Bohai Sea into the hands of Han Derang. Handerang was very excited when he saw the seal in his hand. Ye Qi Guanyin said: "I have a few things I must tell you!" Han Derang said quickly: "Please give me your instructions.
." Ye Qi Guanyin said: "I can't talk about giving orders, but I hope you can remember it closely. First of all, do not let the navy take the initiative to go to sea to fight. Our navy has suffered too many losses and cannot afford any more losses.
, if the entire naval force is annihilated, then the entire Bohai Sea will become Yan Yun’s world, which will put unimaginable pressure on us along the Bohai Sea!"
"Yes." Seeing Handerang's absent-minded look, Ye Qi Guanyin immediately frowned and asked, "Are you trying to deal with me?" Handerang's heart trembled, and he quickly knelt down and said, "How dare I deal with the emperor's aunt! The emperor's aunt!
If so, I have already written it down!"
Ye Qian Guanyin's expression softened, "I hope you will do what you say. Second point, all coastal cities must be careful not to give Yan Yun's army any opportunity to take advantage of. You should be especially careful on Juehua Island! Stay away from there.
The coast is in an important position. If something goes wrong, the consequences will be endless and difficult to recover!" "Yes! I will remember the emperor's teachings!"
"Get up." Handerang stood up. Ye Qi Guanyin glanced at Handerang, "If you remember these two points I mentioned, there won't be any big problems, and I can rest assured!" "Emperor
Don't worry, Auntie!" Ye Qi Guanyin nodded, "Okay. It's time for me to leave." Handerang bowed quickly: "Farewell to the Imperial Aunt!" "No need!" Then he led several generals towards the big tent.
Walking out, Handerang quickly sent Wanyan Qingfeng out of the tent.
Ye Qi Guanyin and others mounted their horses, turned to Han De and said: "I'll leave the matter here to you! You must be careful! Don't take it lightly just because our army is far more numerous than the enemy's. On this battlefield, the army
There is actually no advantage in having more!”
"Yes, I have written it down!" Ye Qi Guanyin glanced at the western sky, sighed with some regret, and then urged his horse to gallop away from the camp, followed closely by the generals and his own troops. Ye Qi Guanyin and the others came out.
He turned around and returned to the tent. Immediately, the gathering drum sounded. Hearing the sound of the drum, the generals of the land and sea armies rushed to the tent to pay homage to Handerang, the new governor of the Bohai Sea.
After the two sides met, Han Derang raised his voice and asked: "Where is the Navy Commander?" Xiao Tianzuo quickly came out and responded: "The general is here!" Han Derang glanced at Xiao Tianci, snorted coldly, and asked: "Where are you?"
As the commander-in-chief of the Navy, you have been defeated again and again, and yet you still have the dignity to stand in this big tent! Don't you know what shame is?"
Xiao Tianzuo suddenly heard such an accusation and was shocked and at a loss. Han Derang said loudly: "A defeated general like you cannot improve the morale of the army unless he kills him!" Xiao Tianzuo was shocked. Han Derang shouted loudly.
"Come here!" Several soldiers came in immediately. Handerang pointed at Xiao Tianzuo and said: "Drag this guy who insults the military power and kill him!" All the generals understood at this time that Han Derang was going to kill him.
Will establish great power!
Several soldiers stepped forward and grabbed Xiao Tianci and dragged him outside. Xiao Tianzuo struggled and shouted: "The Governor is very generous, the Governor is very generous!"
Han Derang raised his voice and said: "Slow down!" Several soldiers immediately escorted Xiao Tianzuo back. Han Derang walked in front of Xiao Tianci and said, "What else do you have to say?" Xiao Tianzuo swallowed his saliva, "The Commander-in-Chief, the Last General
, Although the general was defeated miserably, it was not the general’s responsibility, it was all due to the princess’s command error! Otherwise, the general’s navy would not have fallen into the trap of Yan Yun’s army!” Xiao Tianzuo did anything to save his life.
Regardless, all the responsibility was placed on Ye Qi Guanyin.
Han Derang looked like he believed it, but Xiao Tianzuo quickly said: "Please spare the life of the commander-in-chief, and the commander-in-chief will be punished and make meritorious service to repay the commander-in-chief!" "Oh? Are you sure you can defeat the Yanyun navy?" Xiao Tian
Zuo saw that Handerang's attitude relaxed, and in order to save his life, he vowed: "The defeat of the navy before was actually not a crime of war! Now the navy under the general's command is still twice as powerful as the Yanyun navy, and it can definitely defeat the Yanyun navy.
, as long as the Commander-in-Chief gives me a chance and time!"
Han Derang thought for a moment, "Okay! I will give you this opportunity to lead the navy to fight immediately and make meritorious service!" Xiao Tianzuo was overjoyed and kowtowed quickly. After the accounts were dismissed, Xiao Tianzuo returned to the navy camp. His son Xiao Bang and
Feng Lin Xiaozuo immediately came up to him. Seeing Xiao Tianzuo looking depressed, they were all surprised. Xiao Bang quickly asked: "Why does father look so worried?"
Xiao Tianzuo walked up to the commander's seat and sat down, and cursed angrily: "That Han Derang, as soon as he came here, he actually wanted to kill me to establish his authority!" Everyone was shocked, and Feng Lin hurriedly asked.
"Then how did the governor get away?" Xiao Tianzuo sighed, "I put all the responsibility on the princess, and I promised him that I could defeat Yanyun Shuijun and get rid of the crime, so I was able to get away!
"Everyone was stunned, and Xiao Zuo hurriedly asked: "The governor is not really planning to go to war, is he?"
Xiao Tianzuo sighed, "I have issued a military order, and now the arrow is on the string and I have to fire it!" Xiao Bang said in a panic: "What should we do? The Yanyun navy has cannons, how can we defeat them?" Xiao Bang
Tianzuo thought: "That's not necessarily true! Our warships are twice as many as Yanyun's army. If we attack with all our strength, we may be able to win!"
Xiao Zuo smiled bitterly and said: "This is like hitting your head against a wall!" Xiao Tianzuo said helplessly: "Now there is no other way but to fight to the death!" Then his eyes condensed, "I have made up my mind, immediately
Send someone to declare war to the Yanyun Army and fight to the death with the Yanyun Army!"
The Yanyun Navy was preparing to leave for Juehua Island, but suddenly received a letter of challenge from the Khitan Army to fight to the death with the Yanyun Navy in the sea off Runzhou. The Yanyun Navy suddenly received such a letter of challenge, and felt very
Unexpected. "Could this be a trap?" Guan He said. Guan Shan frowned and said, "It's hard to say, there is no reason for Xiao Tianzuo to take the initiative to fight with us!" Wang Rong snorted, "I don't think there is any need to think too much! Mang Mangmang
On the sea, without any shelter, what tricks can be played?"
Yang Peng nodded and said: "Wang Rong is right. Xiao Tianzuo may have some last resort difficulties, so he had to take the initiative to fight our army! I mean to agree to their challenge!" Everyone nodded. Guan Shan said:
"King Yan, should we detach a fleet to follow the fleet in order to deal with unpredictable emergencies?" Yang Peng thought and nodded, "That's okay." He glanced at everyone and asked.
"Do you have any other opinions?" Everyone looked at each other and shook their heads. "Well, send someone to reply to Xiao Tianzuo immediately!"
Soon after, a reply from Yan Yun was delivered to Xiao Tianzuo. After reading the reply, Xiao Tianzuo frowned and said, "Yan Yun's army has accepted our challenge!" Several people around him couldn't help but become nervous, Xiao Tianzuo
Zuo Qing couldn't help but said: "I really don't know what the outcome of this battle will be!"
Xiao Tianzuo threw the letter of war on the desk, frowned and said: "There is no turning back when you shoot! I just hope God will bless you! Our warships are twice as many as Yanyun's army, and we may be able to defeat them!"
Two days later, warships from both sides gathered on the sea outside Runzhou, and the battle was about to break out. Xiao Tianzuo stood on the platform of the flagship, looking at the Yanyun warship in the distance, but did not see the cannon, and he couldn't help feeling nervous.
It faded a lot. He couldn't help but think in his heart: Maybe the previous guess was not true, Yan Yunjun did not carry the cannon onto the warship. Thinking of this, Xiao Tianzuo seemed to see the dawn of victory.
Xiao Bang quickly stepped onto the platform, clasped his fist towards Xiao Tianzuo and said: "Father, General Feng, and General Xiao are all ready." Xiao Tianzuo looked at the left and right wings, hesitated for a moment, and said decisively: "Send the order, the whole army attacks.
!" The navy of the Liao Kingdom moved. Hundreds of large and small warships formed a huge phalanx and pressed towards the Yanyun Army. The war drums of the Yanyun Army sounded. To Xiao Tianci and others' expectations, the Yanyun Army
The ships did not come head-on, but turned sideways and faced them with their hulls. Xiao Tianzuo frowned and muttered: "What the hell are they doing? Facing our attack like this is asking for death!"
Soon he knew the answer. He saw rows of small doors opening on the side of the Yanyun warship, and then he saw the barrel of the cannon sticking out. Xiao Tianzuo was shocked. At this moment, only
I saw the opponent's warships spitting out countless fireworks. Immediately afterwards, water columns shot into the sky in my own fleet, and many warships had broken walls and masts. Several soldiers on a warship were running on the deck, and a stone bullet roared towards them.
, and immediately beat the soldiers to pieces with bloody flesh flying everywhere, and then penetrated the entire cabin in one fell swoop.
After a round of bombardment, the Khitan navy suffered heavy losses and was already in some confusion. However, Xiao Tianzuo strictly ordered the troops to continue charging! He also tried his best! The Khitan fleet advanced against the fierce fire, and saw that warships were constantly under fire.
It was blasted to pieces and then either lost power or sank into the water.
Finally, the desperate advance of the Khitan army paid off. They had approached less than two arrows away from the Yanyun fleet, and were already within the firing range of crossbows and small stone cannons. Under the fierce roars of the Khitan army generals,
, I saw countless huge guns, arrows and stones flying into the sky and roaring towards the Yanyun army fleet.
It fell into the middle of Yanyun's fleet, causing countless splashes. Stones, spears and arrows fell on Yanyun's warship, and the sails were immediately broken and pierced. One warship was particularly seriously damaged, and a large amount of seawater poured in. In an instant,
Then he flipped it over completely.
What happened after all? Let’s look at the breakdown next time.
