The sun in the sky broke through the fog, and at first glance, there was a touch of light. The white light of the fish belly became more and more dazzling. It was sprinkled on the sparkling sea. The red day finally revealed the outline.
The world is suddenly clear. On the sea, countless ships have been derived to the sea level. This dense ship is covered with sails. The sails are clear on the sails.
On the Dingyuan, the sailor was governed by Li Feng first and looked at the land in front of the farm.
Thousands of pounds.
The wide deck is enough to run, and Li Feng first sat on the deck. There was a priest chair under the buttocks, all around the military officers and banners, and let go of the long tube.
Is it time? "
"Back to the capital, it has arrived at the time."
Li Fengxian smiled coldly: "It seems that the Fran machine people don't plan to descend." His hands were put on his knees. The bronze skin tone was expressionless, and he could not see any anger, and then said: "I am
When the order of King Chu eliminates the Nanyang pirates, since these Francisters are unwilling to fall, they can only move strong. Let's prepare for offense. "
With a order, the flag soldiers immediately started to act, sending a fantasy to the nearby ships, and other ships who received the banner of Qiyu issued instructions to a farther ship.
The floating ships began to act. The hustle and bustle of the sea, all the semi -descending sails opened. The helmsman of the helm began to control the direction of the ship, and the artillery player was ready.
The boat ship for charge has been lifted and put in the sea at any time.
The sailors shouted the title barely. At the same time, a ship began to move slowly, and the first 70 guns were lined up.
Drive, the front side cut the water, and waved waves. A behemoth cast a huge reflection on the sea. It was like a sea beast with a head of nodes and slowly moved towards the target.
All the guns were ready. When the port entered the range, they first faced the ship to face the port, and then the gate artillery extended out the hull.
Li Feng didn't move first. After an hour, the sky was already large. The news of the whistle in front of him had news. The Foran machine soldiers at the port were also making corresponding fighting preparations. Obviously ... they planned to resist stubbornly.
Li Fengxian's patience finally disappeared completely at this moment, and the command finally issued -offensive!
"Woohoo ..."
The sound of the horns came out, covering the sound of the big waves to hit the beach and the hull, and then, the artillery finally made a roar.
More than 70 artillery boats have surrounded the prominent part of the bay. There, Francisie set up a firewood, but this kind of turret can cope with pirates. It is too bad to deal with this huge fleet.
It is obviously not used for a long time. It was a cannon tube forging more than ten years ago.
The Frangle soldiers shrank in the turret at this time and held their breath. In the eyes of the blue, they saw a huge figure on the sea, so that most people's faces were ugly.
After the horn was blown, the sound of cannons was heard, countless artillery spit out fiery snakes, and the protruding fort was immediately covered by the rain of cannons.
At the same time, the ships in the formation lowered the flat-bottomed assault boats for landing on the beach one after another into the water. The assault boats were densely packed with soldiers carrying muskets and bayonets. Each assault boat carried twenty-one people.
, with the team as a unit, the team officer held the sword in front, and the rest of the people rowed the oars and approached the beach.
The densely packed assault boats cover the sky and the earth, like hens laying eggs, and there are as many as a thousand. But for the Francois, their biggest threat at the moment is the gunboats that are four to five feet high above the water.
, after a round of bombing, they tried to
Counterattack, but they found that the range of many old-fashioned artillery was not enough at all. Some of the artillery replaced this year could barely cover it, but this was a drop in the bucket. Even if it hit occasionally, it would not be fatal to this huge ship.
harm.
The fort was already in a mess, with scattered corpses and pits and black smoke everywhere.
Li Fengxian, who was sitting on the deck watching the battle, paid attention to the battle situation. When countless assault boats approached the beach, he put down his telescope and said listlessly: "The battle situation has been decided, and the victory or defeat has been decided. These Francons are really
They are vulnerable, that is, they are stronger than the pirates who have been entrenched on Longwei Island in previous years. When they broke into their fortress, they informed me and I went to rest."
He stood up and stretched. After three minutes on stage and ten years of hard work off stage, even though the naval commander was just sitting here, in order to successfully capture this port, he and some staff military attachés had already studied
After a night of tactics to ensure that the port could be captured with minimal casualties, he was now extremely tired and had no interest in watching the battle anymore.
"Commander, what should we do with those Francois?"
Someone couldn't help but ask.
Li Fengxian was silent for a moment, and then said: "Your Highness has issued an edict before. If they are willing to surrender, then our country, Chu, will have its grievances and its debtors. We will only punish the culprits and not hurt the innocent. But they stubbornly resisted, so there is no need to be polite."
."
Li Fengxian paused: "Except for women and children, you don't have to be polite."
"As ordered... Lianzhou.
The conflict has obviously intensified, and almost all the vassal kings and envoys have secretly linked up. When things have reached this point, they have no way out. At this time, the conflicts between various countries and the Chu State are even far greater than the internal conflicts between each country.
.
Led by Li Hui, various countries began to negotiate. They decided to take several measures. The first was to appeal to the Ming Dynasty to complain about their grievances. The second was to unite and give the new King of Chu a disdain.
Three days later, the King of Chu will hold a banquet in the palace to reward the envoys from various countries. After everyone discusses it, they have already made an idea.
It was already August, and the weather was getting hotter and hotter. Nanyang people didn't think anything of it. They had long been accustomed to this hot weather, but they felt a little acclimated to Liu Chengfeng who came from the capital. He had been acclimated to it these days.
I contracted a minor infection and was not feeling well, so I didn’t attend the meeting with Uijeongbu in the morning.
However, Liu Chengfeng was always paying attention to the news from the outer dynasty. In the past few days, even the feudal kings had suddenly ceased their activities. Of course Liu Chengfeng knew that this was the last peace. He was lying comfortably in the harem.
I am recuperating my body and preparing for this banquet.
After this banquet, a new pattern will be born in the entire Nanyang. This pattern will have a great impact on Chu State and all countries in Nanyang.
Although he was on the couch, Li Dongdong occasionally came to chat with Liu Chengfeng to discuss some details. Li Dongdong seemed a little worried. Now Lianzhou's development has reached a bottleneck. Whether Chu State can break through this bottleneck depends on this.
It's a banquet.
How can it be so easy to make people submit? What Chu needs is the lifeblood of all countries, will others give it away easily?
Liu Chengfeng actually didn't have enough confidence in himself. When he was lying on the hospital bed, he would sometimes suddenly think of some ideas, and then immediately order people to send out secret edicts to make preparations. No matter what, he would try his best to make preparations.
We have done our best. Whether we can succeed or not depends on this banquet.
August 19th.
A banquet was held in the palace. At this time, the gates of Zhennan Palace in Chu State were wide open. There were many ordinary palaces of vassal kings, such as Gyeongbokgung Palace in North Korea and Changshou Palace in Annan. However, the name of the palace in Chu State was Zhennan Palace.
The intention of these two words was very obvious, but it made many vassals feel uncomfortable after hearing it.
It's just that the Chu country is rich, although it has a small land, it is not a good thing. There is also the huge Ming Dynasty. Although the countries are dissatisfied, they dare not show it on their faces.
In the early morning, the officials had already entered the palace. They first met Liu Chengfeng. Liu Chengfeng roused himself and asked some questions about government affairs in the silver palace, and then invited envoys and vassal kings from various countries to enter the palace.
In the silver palace, dining tables have been set up. The food and wine have not yet been served, but there are many fresh fruits and vegetables. The vassal kings from various countries are sitting on the table, and the other envoys and officials from Chu State are sitting down.
First of all, Liu Chengfeng naturally stood high on the silver table and did not come down.
At the beginning, the atmosphere was quite friendly. Annan Wang Lihui also gave Liu Chengfeng a lot of face today and bowed to Liu Chengfeng. Liu Chengfeng was the vassal king, and he was also the vassal king. They all went through the Jin Dynasty.
Li Hui should not have saluted Liu Chengfeng during the canonization ceremony. His salute showed his attitude that Annan was willing to be subordinate to the Chu State and to follow the Chu State's lead.
This was a very kind move, but although Liu Chengfeng was smiling, there was a hint of coldness in his deep eyes.
In his view, Li Hui's subtext was that Annan could take a step back, that is, to be placed below the Chu State, but the Chu State should not have any other evil thoughts. This was Annan's final bottom line.
Liu Chengfeng is very good at doing business, so he has a bit of a businessman's temperament. He doesn't care about the glory of face. What he really cares about is real benefits. Without real benefits, even if others respect him as the emperor.
What's the point?
But now that the banquet has just begun, Liu Chengfeng is not in a hurry. He knows in his heart that the fun has just begun, and sooner or later these vassal kings and envoys will lose their patience...
