"Wang Pengju went to Jieting to build ships?" Guan Cheng straightened up in surprise and left the soft, warm bed covered with furs. He felt a chill behind him.
"How could it be Jie Ting?"
He was puzzled, put down the glass of wine, and shook his head. Guan Cheng suspected that he had drunk too much wine and was a little dizzy. He cursed and ordered: "Go, get me a basin of water, you idiot! Don't heat it up.
Yes, it’s so cool! I need to think carefully about what Wang Pengju is doing..."
"Okay, boss." The minion responded and turned around to leave, but was stopped by Guan Cheng again.
Guan Cheng thought for a while and then added: "Bring me another map. Don't draw it yourself, but make it the one snatched from the county government office. At least you can still distinguish the mountains and rivers clearly."
After he left, when he was going in and out, a gust of cold wind blew in from the outside, blowing away the heat in the room. Guan Cheng shuddered, and his groggy mind became a little clearer: "Evil door, really evil door, this New Year's Eve
Yes, if you don't just stay at home, why do you really want to build a ship and use force? You don't even have a way to survive? Why go to Jieting to build a ship?"
After thinking about it for a long time, he couldn't figure out the reason until the minions came back with the basin. When he saw the strong man holding the map following behind the minions, his eyes lit up.
"Third brother, you came just in time. Please help me check out the details. What on earth is Wang Pengju up to?" As he spoke, Guan Cheng washed his face with the hands of the gangster.
"Yes." The strong man responded in a low voice. He watched Guan Cheng scratch his face a few times and then wiped his face. His eyes showed a trace of clarity before he said in a low voice: "Master..."
Guan Cheng scratched his neck and shouted at the top of his lungs: "Third brother, I've said it many times, we are brothers, and we haven't even released the fifth server yet! Why are you so polite? Besides, even if there is no such relationship,
,you also
He is a hero who is famous in Qingzhou. In the past two years, when the name of Beihai Guanhai was mentioned, the children in Qingzhou did not dare to cry at night. Aren't you going to kill me? Call me Xiaowu, otherwise I will be the fifth brother. My own brothers are not
For outsiders!”
"A person in distress cannot be said to be brave..." Guan Hai's face lost its former ferocity, and there was a wry smile that was totally out of proportion to his fierce face.
"Hey, how many of those who hang out on the green forest road have smooth sailing? Back then, Emperor Gaozu was chased and beaten by the King of Chu. He lost and lost, and didn't he have the 400-year history of the Han Dynasty?"
Guan Cheng waved his hand carelessly and made a nondescript analogy. Seeing that his persuasion had no effect, he was self-aware, so he laughed twice and passed the topic.
"I'm not like you, Third Brother. I haven't read a book and can't speak, but the principles in this world are always the same. It doesn't matter if you have bad luck once or twice. You have learned a lesson and just be careful next time. Third Brother, you
Please help me read the details to see what Wang Pengju is doing? Going to Jieting to build a ship? What do I think? Why do I feel something is wrong?"
While talking, he took the map, spread it out on the table, pointed and explained: "Look, Jie Ting is here..."
Jieting is a small county town in the south of Donglai County, located at the northwest corner of Jiaozhou Bay in later generations. Jiaozhou Bay was not called Jiaozhou Bay in this era, but the terrain was similar to that in later generations.
This bay is deep inland, narrow at the mouth and wide at the inside. The bay is calm and calm all year round. It is a natural harbor and is also very good as a dock.
"This place is a good place, but after he finished building the ship here, he had to go in a long circle to get here..." Guan Cheng drew a circle along the Shandong Peninsula on the map.
Jiaozhou Bay is at the southern end of the peninsula, while the Liaodong Navy and Guan Cheng are both at the northern end of the peninsula. After Wang Yu's ship is built, he still has to go around in a circle, which can be regarded as a laborious expedition.
"The way is either a remote area or our territory. Look at it like this, we might have to fight with those people from Liaodong on the way. We can sit back and relax! Third brother, what do you think?"
Guan Hai was not familiar with navigation-related knowledge. After listening to Guan Cheng's explanation, he finally understood what the other party was wondering about. He mused: "I think it's not that simple. At the beginning, those people in Zhang Rao didn't think that millions of troops were there.
Do you have a chance to win? The result is... maybe he has built a boat and transported it through the river, catching us by surprise."
"I have also considered this matter." Guan Cheng nodded, shook his head, and looked around the map in distress: "But look, except for the Dagu River, there are no rivers in the surrounding area! Could it be that he
Not only can it fly into the sky, but can it also move mountains and seas?"
After floating on the sea for so long, he was quite familiar with the hydrology of Donglai and even Qingzhou. To be on the safe side, he specially brought a map over, but after studying it for a long time, he just couldn't figure it out.
Although he didn't understand navigation, Guan Hai also knew what this brother who was not a relative was worried about.
In fact, he and Guan Cheng are fellow villagers with the same surname. If you insist on saying so, they can indeed be related to each other, but before they became bandits, the two families had never moved together.
Of course, this isn't really a problem, it's just a way to win over.
After Guan Hai left the Yellow Turban Army, he originally planned to go to Langya to join Zang Ba, but halfway there, he got the news of Wang Yu's victory in the Battle of Mount Tai. He was originally frightened, but this time he was even more frightened.
At that time, the Taishan thieves originally wanted to take advantage of the situation, but when they realized something was wrong, they withdrew again. They were obviously timid. Guan Hai thought that if he had rushed to this moment and stupidly sent it to his door, Zang Ba would definitely send it back as a gift.
Mount Tai.
After the Taishan War, most of the bandits escaped from Qingzhou and the Taishan territory. Only a few who were not afraid of death or loved their families slipped back. As a result, they were either killed by Tai Shici's team, or were killed by the combination of pavilion chiefs and militiamen from various places.
Cleaned up.
In desperation, he had no choice but to return to his hometown in Donglai and seek refuge with Guan Cheng.
Guan Cheng was not very skilled in martial arts, but his cunning was far superior to Guan Hai. When Zhang Rao raised the flag, he also invited him, but he declined the offer without even thinking about it.
Guan Cheng thought very clearly that he only had a few thousand men under him, and Zhang Rao had hundreds of thousands. If they joined in, they wouldn't even be able to fight off the water. Besides, he and his minions were very capable at sea and ashore.
It's hard to join in the fun and look at people's faces. It's better to be a local emperor at sea.
His intelligence lies in his self-awareness.
After discovering that Taishi Ci's troops were approaching, Guan Cheng did not hesitate to abandon several nests near the mainland, moved all his belongings to Heishan, Big and Small Changshan Islands and other offshore islands, and also looted all the ships along the coast.
.
In Donglai at the moment, it is difficult to find a complete sampan. No matter how strong the Qingzhou army is, it is impossible for them to fly across the sea. If they can avoid this period of time, and wait until Qingzhou's defense is relaxed, Guan Cheng can go back arrogantly.
.
However, Wang Yu sent someone to the Liaodong Navy, and then assumed the current posture.
Is it really shipbuilding?
Or... he has reached an agreement with Liaodong to attack the east and attack the west together to suppress the bandits?
Guan Cheng was unsure. Guan Hai was not much better than the cheap brothers. After thinking for a long time, he finally could only make a reasonable suggestion: "How about sending someone to go and find out what Liu Yi says?"
"It's no use."
Guan Chengshan said: "Although Liu Yi is not famous, he is also a scholar. It is said that he is also a disciple of Zheng Xuan. He is cunning. I have many brothers, but they all only know how to row an oar, sail a sail, and chop people with a knife.
It's useless to deal with a hundred ghost scholars. If he really wants to sell us, it would be better not to send someone. If he does, he might even help count the money after he is sold."
Turning to look at Guan Hai, Guan Chengxiao asked, "Third brother, is there anything we can't talk about between us brothers? Let's talk about whatever comes to mind?"
After hesitating for a moment, Guan Hai gritted his teeth and said, "I think, anyway, the situation in Qingzhou has been decided, so we might as well surrender."
"Surrender?" Guan Cheng jumped up and stared at Guan Hai with a look of disbelief in his eyes, "Third brother, you ran all the way from Mount Tai to Langya, and then ran back to Donglai from Langya.
Just to surrender?"
The reason why Guan Cheng took the opponent in and tried his best to win over him was because he took a fancy to the opponent's martial arts. In the battle of Zhuxu that day, Guan Hai killed the general and captured the gate. He was unparalleled in majesty. It is not an exaggeration to say that he became famous in Qingzhou, but it was just luck.
No, I bumped into Wang Yu not long after.
Guan Cheng's martial arts skills were average, but his ambition was not small. He had always wanted to recruit a strong general, so Guan Hai was sent to his door, and he naturally became a favorite in his eyes.
Therefore, even though he looked at the other party with no energy, he still treated him with courtesy. As a result, he found out today that the problem was not that the other party was in a low mood, but that he even had no fighting spirit.
Because he was so surprised, his tongue was wide open, "Tell it yourself, can you make sense?"
"I was just not sure whether Wang Pengju would kill someone before." After talking about this, Guan Hai had nothing to hide, so he simply said it all at once, "There are always people outside trying to compare him to Huangfu.
Songbi, over the years, my hands have been stained with blood. Who knows if he will..."
"What about now?" Guan Cheng glared at Guan Hai sideways, holding back a stomach full of evil fire that made his lungs hurt.
Guan Cheng's eyes were not kind, but Guan Hai just pretended not to see it, "Zhang Rao's people ran away. Some were entrenched in Jibei Kingdom, and some ran further. Wang Pengju did not pursue them, and even spared Xu.
He even asked him to guard Juping! Fifth brother, you have to know that Juping is the gateway to Taishan County. If Xu He is restless and leads those in Jibei..."
Guan Cheng lowered his face and said coldly: "Okay, third brother, don't say anything anymore. If you are afraid of death, I will let someone arrange a boat to take you ashore. Everyone has his own ambitions, and I can't force it.
, right? If you still miss my friendship these days, don’t mention these words again, otherwise... hum."
"When I was in trouble, I asked my fifth brother to take you in. Naturally, I won't abandon you at this time."
Guan Hai didn't have many plans, but he still saw the situation in front of him very clearly. After staying on the island for so long, leaving just as soon as he wanted? How could it be that easy! If he really got on the boat, being buried in the belly of a fish would be the only outcome.
"However, you have to think clearly. Wang Pengju is really unpredictable. What if he..."
"As long as he is still a human being, I am not afraid of him!" Guan Chengda was impatient and said fiercely:
"I don't believe that he can build a large fleet in two or three months. Sailors are easy to find, but is it so easy to build big ships? As for the small ships, he just planned a sneak attack, and there is nothing terrible about that.
Just be more prepared, okay? You see, in less than half a year, he won’t be as majestic as he is now. By then, it’s still unclear who will be in charge of Qingzhou, hahahaha!” (To be continued. If you like this film
