The fishy sea breeze stirred up layers of waves and rushed to the shore, leaving white waves all over the ground.
A 500-ton fishing boat with a blue background and white paint was cutting through the thorns on the rippling sea.
Li Yunze, holding a Nikon Ye Ye, stood on the deck and pointed in front of his finger, "The fish is right in front, speed up and catch up!"
The engine roared, and the fishing boat gradually caught up with a large group of whales ahead.
Hundreds of years later, there are almost no traces of whales in this sea area.
Now, here they are a scourge.
Not only has it affected fishing harvests, there have been incidents of collisions with fishing boats in the past.
"Step aside!"
Entering the shooting range, Li Yunze stepped forward and pushed away the eunuch guarding the harpoon.
After some calculations and aiming, I felt that I could hit the harpoon directly.
There was a sound of ‘bang’.
The harpoon pulled on the rope flew a hundred or ten meters and was accurately inserted into the back of a huge whale.
At this distance, and considering the size of the whale, it doesn't really matter whether you aim or not.
The whale was in pain and immediately began to swim faster.
But the barbed fork has locked it firmly, and all the struggles are meaningless.
After a fierce struggle and chase, the large whale, estimated to be at least several dozen tons, was dragged all the way back to the shore pier.
At this time, Tianjin Wei was no longer the small seaside fishing port it had been before. After this period of vigorous construction, it was already thriving and beginning to take shape.
A cable pulley tower has been installed on the huge stone pier, and it took a lot of effort to finally pull the whale to the shore.
Hundreds of fishermen swarmed up, cut off the head and tail, and dug out the belly.
In just a short time, the mountain-like whale had been dismantled into countless small pieces.
Follow the cart and transport the pieces of whale meat to the processing factory not far away.
Li Yunze got off the boat and looked up at the time: "How was the harvest today?"
Wang Chengen, who was too sick to get on the boat, hurriedly stepped forward to report, "Long live, the fleet has caught eight kun fish today."
These days whales are not called whales, they are called big fish.
When the big fish dies, the king's big fish dies.
Then there is the fish called Kun. There is a fish in the North Ming Dynasty, and its name is Kun.
Whatever they call whales, they are all imported.
"That's enough." Li Yunze took off his waterproof clothes and "Make four portions and invite the whole army to eat together at dinner time. All the civilians, soldiers and civilians inside and outside the port will eat together."
The Beijing camp has about 80,000 troops, and there are no civilians. The chores are done by the auxiliary barracks and the cannon fodder battalion.
Including Li Yunze's entourage, the garrison of Tianjin Guards, the sailors and boatmen on the ships, local fishermen and other people, there are almost 100,000 people.
Calculated based on the amount of two kilograms of meat per person, that is two hundred thousand kilograms and one hundred tons.
If there are four whales, even if you cut off the heads and tails and dig out the belly, they will definitely weigh more than one hundred tons, so they can be eaten.
"Long live."
Wang Chengen, who was slightly hesitant, stepped forward despite the smell of the sea breeze that made him dizzy. "As the old saying goes, when the big fish dies, the king dies."
"You know a lot."
Washing his hands with water to wash away the strong smell of seafood, Li Yunze greeted many civil and military officials who were waiting for him. "Didn't Huang Taiji claim to be Tianconghan? He could be considered a prince. We caught so many big fish today, and we all ate them together, just to die."
Damn that Huang Taiji."
Having said this, he looked around at everyone, "Everyone is open to me to eat. Everyone has to eat. The more you eat, the faster Huang Taiji will die! Take the remaining fish and meat with you and send them all the way to Liaodi."
Everyone, let’s kill that traitor!”
There was a burst of laughter all around, and many soldiers shouted, 'Kill him to death! Kill him to death!'
This matter is not taboo, because the "Book of Rites" contains: "The death of the emperor is called 'collapse', and the death of the princes is called 'die'."
Since the matter has nothing to do with the emperor, there is naturally no taboo.
As for those knighted nobles who are dying, who cares about them now?
There is no doubt that in Li Yunze's opinion, this is feudal superstition, but people in this era believe in this, and it can really boost morale.
The more people eat the big fish, the sooner Tian Conghan will die, which means we are sure to win, and we are sure to win the battle, and our morale will of course improve.
Most uneducated people in this world really think this way.
Although the brand new Beijing camp has strict training and well-equipped equipment.
But in fact, except for a few battles to suppress bandits, he had no experience on the battlefield at all, and his mentality was completely different from those of the soldiers and horses of the Hou Jin Dynasty who had been fighting for years.
Li Yunze can obtain large quantities of advanced equipment, but no matter how advanced the equipment is, its users are also human beings.
Even the mechanized troops imported from Yishui will be defeated miserably at the feet of the Slipper Army when their morale is low.
'Brand new firearm, only seen on the ground once.'
In one sentence, it is clarified that talents are the key factor in determining war.
The reason why Li Yunze took a detour to Tianjin Guard first was to try every means to improve his morale.
For example, in some novels, if you have advanced equipment and recruit a group of new soldiers, you can directly go to the battlefield and kill everyone, etc., then it is really deceiving.
At night, the brazier filled with whale oil was smoldering and roaring in the sea breeze.
Nearly 100,000 soldiers and civilians were sitting in various places, laughing and eating.
To be honest, whale meat doesn't taste very good, even with a lot of spices and seasonings added to it.
But for people in this era, being able to eat meat with an open belly is already a great deal, so what else is needed for a bicycle?
When everyone was satisfied after having had enough wine and food, Li Yunze, who had changed into regular clothes, walked onto the temporary wooden platform.
In front of him is a microphone, and the sound system has already been prepared.
"There were ghosts in the Xia and Shang Dynasty, and Rongdi in the Zhou Dynasty. The strong Han Dynasties in the pre-Qin Dynasty were the Huns, and the Tang Dynasty faced the Turks. The two Song Dynasties were the worst, with the Khitans first and then the Jurchens, and finally they were destroyed by the Mengwu. By the time we arrived in the Ming Dynasty, we were threatened
The hundreds of millions of people in the world have become Tartars!"
Li Yunze stood with his hands behind his back and looked around, "You must have heard how tragic the two Song Dynasties were when they died at the hands of foreigners."
"Now the Tartars are rising, plundering the Ming Dynasty and defeating the king's army repeatedly. This scene is so similar to the rise of the Jurchen Mengwu!"
Wen Tiren, who was accompanying him, subconsciously wanted to get up and dissuade him. How could he say such words that seemed to have the ambition of an enemy?
Li Yunze glanced over and his butt immediately returned to the seat.
"My sons, do you know what will happen if you let the Tartars get bigger?" Li Yunze's tone became more and more fierce. "They only want slaves, not common people! They will kill all the men, rob all X people, and occupy your fields and homes.
Let your descendants keep rat tails and become slaves!"
"The land of China is sinking, and the blood is flowing everywhere. The Han family's clothes and thousands of years of inheritance will be destroyed in one day!"
He took a deep breath and said, "My sons, what you eat, use and wear are all the blood and sweat of the people of the Ming Dynasty. This conquest of the Tartars is a battle for the destiny of the Ming Dynasty. You must not slack off."
"I hereby swear an oath that I will never return to the court until the Tartars are destroyed!"
His gaze indicated that the generals who had been arranged before immediately stood up, raised their arms and shouted, "Swear to destroy the Tartars! Oath to destroy the Tartars!"
With the generals taking the lead, the soldiers who were a little dizzy after eating and drinking shouted "Swear to destroy the Tartars~~~"
The roar of 100,000 people shook the whole country!
When the high emotions gradually calmed down, Li Yunze threw out the sweet dates.
"On the Tartar side, it is said that there are twenty-four prospects from Qiding to Beile. My reward also corresponds to these twenty-four prospects."
"Whoever kills the Tartar bannermen in this battle will be rewarded with a hundred taels of silver, and will be given a hundred acres of land in Liao. Whoever kills Huang Taiji will be granted the title of King of Liao, and will be given a coupon! Hereditary will not replace him!"
"I make this promise as the Emperor. If I violate it, I will be struck by thunder from heaven!"
There were stars in the night sky, there were no clouds and there was no thunder.
There is no doubt that Li Yunze has spent a lot of money.
The most common flag men all start with a hundred taels of silver. If they really win, the reward alone will bankrupt the Ming Dynasty's finances.
But in terms of effect, it directly ignited the passion of the scene.
Countless people were gearing up with red eyes, eager to fight to the death with the Tartars right away.
Here in Ming Dynasty, it is really difficult to get ahead.
Even if they are scholars, there are so many scholars in the world, how many will eventually be able to become Jinshi in high school, let alone sergeants and soldiers like them in the army.
Now, the opportunity to reach the sky in one step and change the fate of the family's descendants is right in front of us. Of course, we must fight hard to grab it.
Looking at the many soldiers who were restless as if a volcano was about to erupt, Li Yunze nodded with satisfaction.
He knew very well that the great principles were indeed useful, but not as great as imagined.
The only thing that can truly impress the morale of the troops and make them fight to the death is the tangible and tangible benefits.
The saying, "A brave man must be rewarded" has never gone out of style.
Even if Li Yunze throws money at him, he will still knock the Tartars down.
Compared with the devastating losses caused by the rise of the Tartars, this expenditure is not worth mentioning.
There is no doubt that the morale of the soldiers in the Beijing camp has been boosted to its peak. Even the most timid people are screaming and wanting to fight the Tartars at this time.
Early the next morning, the army broke out of camp and headed straight for Shanhaiguan.
Thousands of miles away, at the foot of the Xing'an Mountains, the fat Huang Taiji looked at the information in his hand about the Ming Emperor's personal expedition, narrowed his eyes and smiled, "The Ming Dynasty gave birth to a great emperor."
"Father." The burly Hauge laughed sarcastically. "Since we fought against my grandfather, our Dajin expedition was not a personal one. What's the big deal?"
Huang Taiji sneered, "You know nothing."
There was nothing they could do about the fact that every battle here in Houjin was fought in person. For them, every battle was almost a matter of life and death, so how could they not fight in person.
The size of Ming Dynasty is there, there is no need for the emperor to take action.
But once the emperor takes action, it means a real fight to the death, with no room for change.
After many years, the Ming Dynasty actually gave birth to another emperor, and it was only after he had just succeeded to the throne.
Thinking of this, Huang Taiji's eyes became more and more sinister.
He had just defeated Lin Dan Khan and conquered many Mongolian tribes under pressure.
The original plan was to coerce these tribes to go south together, bypass the Ningjin Iron Turtle and rush into the hinterland of the Ming Dynasty, plunder food and population to alleviate the crisis, enhance their own prestige, and further control the Mongolian tribes.
He didn't tell anyone about this plan, but now he was interrupted by Li Yunze when he was about to execute it.
For Huang Taiji, Li Yunze's personal expedition was like a punch in the waist.
It hurts and is uncomfortable.
The plan to take a detour south was forced to die, and they had to fight a decisive battle with the Ming army amid internal instability.
If all this is not a coincidence, but intentional, then the emperor of the Ming Dynasty is undoubtedly a great person.
"Hauge." After pondering for a moment, Huang Taiji made a decision, "Summon all the Baylor ministers and Taiji nobles from all ministries to come and discuss matters!"
