Chapter 362 Water Battle Hengjiang Hundred Boats Sitting Yuanhou in Haishan Building
During the attack on Lianghuai, Zhou Bao, the governor of the Navy, greatly supported Yang Xingmi.
Li Yunze warned him at that time that he would only go out at noon in the future, because sooner or later he would have to deal with him.
Now, it's time for Li Yunze to fulfill his promise.
After defeating the Wuning army and relieving his worries, Li Yunze turned around and headed straight for Yangzhou City along the Grand Canal.
The troops were ready to cross the river to attack Zhen Haijun.
Zhou Bao on the other side got scared and sent an envoy with many gifts to ask for surrender, saying that from now on Li Jiedu would follow the lead of the horse and follow the lead of the saddle to imitate the work of the dog and horse.
If it were another hero who conquered the world, he would have accepted it even if he couldn't help it.
It's almost enough to accept the wealth and beauty, then ask for protons, and demand that taxes be paid on time.
If the whole world is so peaceful, it will basically mean the creation of a new dynasty.
But Li Yunze didn't think so, and the vassal town separated by one side must not be left behind.
There is no need to say much about the process, he is already familiar with it.
Not only were all the existing IOUs burned, but the government would not recognize any more IOUs in the future.
As for the serial boat siege, it was true that iron chains were used to surround the fishing boat. However, the soldiers who joined the gang to fight could not even find the deck entrance of the fishing boat, and were quickly shot and killed by the sergeants on the boat.
At this time, Jiangnan was far from being the most tax-rich place in the world in later generations. Even after many years of development, it was still far inferior to the north.
"It's too late." Zhou Bao, who was full of confidence before, raised his hand bitterly and pointed to the opposite side of the large iron ship that rushed out from behind the wooden ship array and cut through the waves straight to Zhenhai Navy. "Their speed is too fast and they have no sails."
Without a paddle, I can run much faster than me.
Now the number has skyrocketed, and there is no need to fight.
"I believe in Taoism."
However, the fire cannot destroy the iron ship, and as long as the power of the fishing boat is still there, it can easily get rid of the arson boat.
Unless Zhou Bao and Yang Xingmi are the sons of the rain master He Bo, who can call the wind and rain to set off hundreds of feet of waves and knock all Li Yunze's fleet to the bottom of the river. Otherwise, a wooden sailboat versus an iron power boat is not a match at all.
fighting.
Over there, Zhou Bao was furious, and together with Yang Xingmi, who had defected to him, they brought a fleet of troops and horses to Zhenjiang, facing Li Yunze on the other side of the river across the river.
Even the big and sturdy Wuya ship cannot withstand the fierce blow of the fishing boat battleship sailing at high speed.
The most terrible thing is that Li Yunze once again emphasized that no matter who owns the land, as long as it is an acre, he must pay taxes.
Searches after the war found no trace of Yang Xingmi and Zhou Bao, and most people believed that they had successfully escaped to the shore.
He quickly put away the telescope, turned around and sat down on the horse, and began to play with his small red stove to warm the wine.
The so-called temple property is not confiscated, but each monk can be allocated twenty acres of Yongye land to cultivate and support himself based on his head count.
The large iron ship that appeared in front of them was not one, but more than ten!
A table of dishes was prepared for the guests, but more than a dozen tables of guests came.
The Zhenhai navy put up a tenacious resistance, and their arson boat even once approached a fishing boat operated by a novice.
He was very proficient in naval warfare, but he had never thought that there would be ships made of iron in the world. Why would such a heavy iron ship not sink?
This is not the most terrible thing. The most terrible thing is that such a heavy iron ship is not only extremely strong, but also can run as fast as flying.
"The big five-ya boat sounds domineering and majestic. Unfortunately, it doesn't work in practice. It really doesn't work. The length-to-width ratio is inappropriate, and the side of the ship is too high. It can still be used for wandering around in rivers, and when it's out in the sea, you can take pictures if there's a little wind and waves."
turn."
Under the interests, there is only the competition between Chi Guoguo, and there is nothing else to say.
It doesn't matter if you are a monk, a Taoist priest, a nun, a witch, or whatever.
From the moment the battle begins, the outcome has been determined.
When Yang Xingmi heard this, his expression became sad.
The thick and big bow hit the corner and penetrated hard into the hull.
But during subsequent attacks and receptions in various places in Jiangnan, there was still no news from them.
Another common topic is that private IOUs are not recognized or allowed.
The small boat was directly smashed into pieces, and the big ship was also smashed into two pieces.
"Zhou Jiedu." Yang Xingmi hurriedly persuaded Zhou Bao on the Wuya ship, "The bandits are strong, so it's better to retreat for the time being."
Rejecting the monks' pleadings and threats, Li Yunze, who was never afraid of the Buddha, finished the fish feast, gave the monks an ultimatum, turned around and returned to the city.
The only thing that can be done at this time is to jump off the ship quickly.
To crack down on the powerful, divide the land, arrange for sergeants to retire, etc., Li Yunze only needs to capture the boss.
So he accepted the wealth and beauty, then drove away the envoy, and asked him to go back and tell Zhou Bao that he would leave his whole body for the sake of the wealth and beauty.
Three fishing boats successfully collided with Zhou Bao and Yang Xingmi's flagship. The other two fishing boats got stuck together because of the unskilled helmsmen.
"The way of heaven is easy to reincarnate, and Jiedu is afraid that he will go to Abi Hell."
This large-scale water battle ended quickly, but the result was one-sided.
However, Zhou Bao and Yang Xingmi had no time to rejoice in their opponents' self-destruction of the Great Wall. Their ship was knocked out of three huge holes, and the raging river water poured violently into them.
As the navy ships were rammed and sunk one after another, the remaining fleet could not withstand the huge pressure and surrendered one after another.
When the whole of Jiangnan fell under the control of the Xuanwu Army, neither Yang Xingmi nor Zhou Bao appeared.
If you want to borrow money, you can only go to a government-run bank.
It was also because there were fewer people that it was much easier for Li Yunze to stabilize the place.
"Hell belongs to the king of hell."
Because neither the living nor the dead can be seen, they can only be classified as missing in the end.
After all efforts failed, it was only natural that Zhen Haijun, whose morale collapsed, chose to surrender.
The harsh metal twisting sound when you rub it together is really mind-numbing.
The idea must be good and the preparations are sufficient.
This time he stayed at the residence of Zhou Bao, the Jiedushi envoy.
"It's up to you. Either sit down and eat together, or go to the Yamen now to register your property. Don't make any more noise. The sun is so bright today, and your bald head is too dazzling."
"Isn't Jiedu afraid of Buddha's blame?"
It is difficult to water the fields in the north, but it is very easy here in the south of the Yangtze River.
If they weren't worried about the mythical beast falling from the sky, it would have been completely settled long ago. Why would we talk nonsense to them?
Those who could still move on the boat desperately tore off their clothes and armor, and then jumped into the river like dumplings.
That's right, Li Yunze's repertoire every time he goes to Jiangnan is to attack the temples hard.
Like today, a large group of monks came to beg for mercy and talk about Buddhism and so on. They were quite amiable. There were several assassinations, and one of them was a beauty sent by the local powerful on the couch. Ahem.
Not only was the food not enough, the angry guests would overturn the table.
Beside him, there were dozens or hundreds of bald monks sitting or standing.
Li Yunze has always been indifferent to Buddhism, which is not unrelated to the scum of Buddhism.
The desperate Zhenhai navy wanted to escape, but by taking advantage of the wind and turning around, the fishing boat battle fleet over there had already rushed directly into the ship array.
You can't do it without taking off your armor. The armor is heavy and will drag you to the bottom of the water.
Regardless of the number of fields or population, the land south of the Yangtze River is not comparable to that of the north.
For example, hairy crabs, swordfish and other expensive luxuries of later generations were eaten by the common people in this era as they wanted.
In the distance, in the fleet of the Xuanwu Army, Li Yunze, who was holding a telescope, saw the big five-toothed ship with the handsome flag flying and sinking into the river, and he shook his head repeatedly.
As long as they can seize the big iron ship, the waterways in the world will be free for them to run amok.
Not only are they huge in size, but they also contain precious fish such as swordfish that are rarely seen by ordinary people in future generations, let alone eat them.
And with the promotion of the Sanshe Method, more and more students are assigned to work after graduation, and Li Yunze no longer has to go and do everything by himself.
He hired a chef from the city and lit a fire by the river to prepare a whole fish feast. Li Yunze enjoyed the whole fish feast while watching the river view.
But when they boarded the battleship and left the port in person to start a battle with the Xuanwu Army's navy on the river, they were dumbfounded.
There is nothing much to say in this case, let alone any measures to control the damage.
In order to deal with Li Yunze's big iron ship, they specially prepared more than a hundred arson boats, and also modified more than ten large five-tooth ships, which were connected with iron ropes and prepared to surround the big iron ship for a boarding battle, relying on their numerical advantage.
Capture the big iron ship.
"Return to the control of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva."
Just talk about the results, and all the monks who have not given the ultimatum will return to secular life. If there is a second time, the temple will be demolished and the people will be arrested.
Clothes soaked in water also add weight and cause resistance, which is very detrimental to survival after falling into the water.
As soon as he entered the gate of the mansion, Li Yunze paused.
The real and complete rise of Jiangnan had to wait until after Jingkang, especially during the Ming Dynasty, before it became the richest place in the world.
I’ve seen it too many times, so I’m very impatient.
As the so-called land of plenty, streams and lakes are everywhere as far as the eye can see, and most of the fertile land is paddy fields.
The five-toothed ship where Zhou Bao and Yang Xingmi were on attracted the most attention because of its high-flying flag. Five fishing boats came to collide with them from all directions.
With his free time, Li Yunze also had the time and mood to visit Jiangnan before it was fully developed.
There is no doubt that these measures have touched the interests of many people.
He pointed at the servants who were kneeling on the ground to greet him, frowned and asked, "What do you mean?"
In this world, as long as you receive his land, you will have to pay taxes to him.
Li Yunze took matters into his own hands and caught several nets on the river.
There's no way you can run away."
Naturally, all the original servants have been driven away. In theory, there should only be sergeants here, and at most some beauties.
But what greeted Li Yunze at this time was a team of Kunlun slaves!
Logistics officer Zhou Dabao hurriedly stepped forward and explained, "Jiedu, these Kunlun slaves are sent by foreign caravans in the city. We, the high officials of the Tang Dynasty, all like to keep some Kunlun slaves."
"Get out!"
With a sullen face, Li Yunze kicked him over, "What I don't want to see the most are the Kunlun slaves and Angsa bandits! You bastard, you dare to lead me in front of me, tell those foreign caravans to get out immediately, and take their Kunlun slaves with them."
