"Is that an island or a very long coastline, like the Song Dynasty?" Liang Chuan suddenly asked a very unhelpful question.
Xia Dehai responded in confusion: "It seems to be an island!"
Liang Chuan sighed and said, "That's not Yizhou. Yizhou is so big that you can't even see the whole thing!"
Su Wei said: "Have you been to Yizhou?"
"I've never been there, but I've read in books that many ancient people have been there."
When Xia Dehai saw that Liang Chuan was silent, he continued: "The island is also very big and has a very good port. We took advantage of the night to observe it for a long time. It is a pirate stronghold!"
"How far is this island from our Song Dynasty?"
"It's very far. It takes nearly two days for an ordinary sea-going ship!"
Everyone was surprised that it was so far away. If you didn’t have professional experience at sea, you might not be able to find it. Even if you found it, it would be outside the power of the Song Dynasty!
Who would set up their nest in a place like this, no one but pirates!
Why did you get into trouble with these people again!
Su Wei was most worried because he knew the threat these pirates posed to their port!
These people put the knife directly on their necks. Is the next step going to be to attack Qingyuan Port?
Su Wei glanced at Liang Chuan and began to talk: "According to ancient books, Yizhou first appeared in the second year of Huanglong in the Eastern Wu Dynasty. In that year, Sun Quan sent Wei Wen and Zhuge Zhi to Yizhou with the purpose of recruiting people to enrich Jiangdong!"
Everyone listened, they only knew the name of this place, and everyone was confused as to what this place was for!
"These two generals went, but they didn't bring back a single person, and they stayed in Yizhou for a year! Sun Quan became violent and murderous in his later years, and killed these two people for disobeying the imperial edict!"
"Since then, Yizhou has been blank in the history books! Some people say that the reason why Sun Quan killed these two people was because they met Xu Fu again!"
Xu Fu!
"I know!" Yang Baxian said: "He is a god, the one sent by the First Emperor to find the elixir!"
Elixir!
Everyone suddenly became jealous. This thing is so famous that even the First Emperor couldn't get it. There are fairy mountains overseas, and you can't live forever!
Xu Fu took countless boys and girls with him, and it is said that he found the elixir of life and became immortals! This has become a legend among the people!
"Are the people on this island gods?"
Yang Baxian has stopped fighting and killing in recent years, and his courage has become weaker!
Su Wei said: "Bullshit gods! Xu Fu said that when they arrived in Japan, do you know why the Japanese were so young? It was because the boys and girls in the past had nothing to eat and were not tall. This is not the case in Yizhou!"
"Mr. Su, you read a lot of books, don't lie to me!"
Su Wei glanced at Yang Baxian and was too lazy to talk to him!
"You guys went to the island?" Su Wei asked Xia Dehai.
"How can it be possible? There are so many people up there, how can we sailors dare to attack the city and plunder the territory! No, I know the owner..."
Xia Dehai glanced at Liang Chuan and saw that Liang Chuan was not dissatisfied, then said: "My boss must like this kind of place! I will come back to report it right away!"
Liang Chuan patted Xia Dehai and said, "You did this beautifully! I'm very satisfied!"
"My boss has given me a reward!"
Who doesn't know Liang Chuan's temper? Now he is only interested in money. He likes small places like Liu'ao Island. Isn't this Yizhou boss greedy?
Liang Chuan said: "Immediately go to Liu'ao Island and invite me the little Celestial Master Linghu! Also! Bring me all the truth on the island!"

truth?
Everyone was stunned for a moment, and Su Wei said: "It's the artillery!"
"Bring all the ammunition here, I'm going to Yizhou to test the artillery!"
Everyone was so excited. It had been quiet for a long time, so they had something to do!
"Chongguang, please send people to Qingyuan and Taocheng. Call me all the main cadres of the Tianxiong Army. I want them to bring all their equipment and be on standby at the port within three days!"
Yelu Chongguang was so excited. In the past, we fought in dangerous areas like the northwest. There was no way around it, and all kinds of supplies were not available. But now it is different. If you need people and money, you still have to fight at your doorstep. How exciting it is!
"As you command!"
"Xia Dehai, prepare the ship, we will set off in the evening!"
Xia Dehai was startled: "My boss, we don't have much ammunition on the ship. We used them all in the naval battle. Now I'm afraid..."
"Instead of going to fight, let's take advantage of the darkness to find out the enemy's situation at night!"
Xia Dehai breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, his boss was not crazy!
That night, three ships sailed out of Qingyuan Port. Under the cover of night, their sails were full of wind and they headed towards the East China Sea. At this time, sea-going ships mostly took advantage of the east wind and rarely sailed against the wind, which required excellent navigation skills.
Liang Chuan's ship has five masts, and when combined, it is extremely fast. It only took one day to reach the outer sea. The next night was the Yinmao hour, when the sky was dark and people were tired.
This is a pretty big island.
So, this is not Yizhou!
Although there is a sentry tower on the island, people here are drunk and dreaming every day. After a long time, there are no enemies to invade, and the warning is in vain!
How could the sentinels on guard know that there were three ships quietly observing in the depths of the ocean at night?
Liang Chuan stood at the bow of the ship with a telescope! The sea breeze at the turn of spring and summer brings a touch of coolness.
"Have you found out clearly? How many people are there on the island, how many sentries are there, and how many ships are in the port?"
Xia Dehai was sweating profusely and lowered his head, not knowing how to answer correctly.
Where did he go to investigate, in case alerting the snake would not be a major matter for the boss?
Liang Chuan said very considerately: "Fortunately, you didn't take action first. It seems that there are quite a lot of people on the island. This island is large and in a good location, so we must take it!"
The ship folded its canvas and followed the waves as it swam around the island.
After getting closer to the sea for a while, Liang Chuan discovered that this was not an island, but three huge islands surrounded by a bay in the middle!
This is the Penghu Islands!
Liang Chuan was extremely excited. Penghu is ahead, can Yizhou be far behind?
The Penghu Islands are the front line of Yizhou. Even the old Chiang Kai-shek used them as the first battle zone. This is enough to see the importance of this place!
Liang Chuan's current methods and techniques are not enough to ensure that the ocean is safe from danger.
No force in the world has this ability, so the Pacific Ocean behind Yizhou is still out of reach for Liang Chuan.
But to the west of Yizhou, there is the Yizhou Strait! Liang Chuan is going to take it into his pocket here!
To put it bluntly, why did the Song Dynasty have so much money? Maritime trade accounted for more than half!
And this trade road, this maritime trade road, was the lifeblood of the Song Dynasty!
Don't look at these three small islands that are strangling it. The Song Dynasty and several dynasties further north all have to go back to the fields to farm and hunt in the mountains!
There is another super superior place in Penghu Islands!
There were huge waves in the middle of the strait, but Liangchuan could clearly see it through a telescope, and the waves were calm in the middle of the islands.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Several sea-going ships were parked steadily in the port!
There is a natural harbor here too!
Liang Chuan's biggest worry is that Qingyuan Port is under the control of the imperial court. On that day when powerful people in the imperial court take a fancy to his port, or if the imperial government's policy changes and bans trade and seclusion, then the port will be surrendered?
Take the Penghu Islands and march to Yizhou next! At that time, the entire strait will be under his control. If he offends Zhao Zhen one day, he no longer has to be afraid. He can just hide in Yizhou!
These days, the Song Dynasty's infantry is invincible, and the Khitan Xixia's cavalry is unparalleled, but no one has a navy. If this untraveled road has been taken by itself, can it shake up the world!
Liang Chuan looked at the sea area and said to Xia Dehai: "Find some brothers who are good at water and have good and reliable skills!"
"Don't worry, my boss, these people under me are all top-notch heroes. Whatever you want to do, my boss just gives the order!"
"I went back to organize the troops, but I wasn't that fast for a while. Your task in the past few days is to closely monitor the movements of this island to see how many people and boats they have, and when they will move. It's best if you can let the brothers sneak to the shore and secretly Observe and bring out the distribution map of the island!"
“Where is the distribution map?”
Xia Dehai was a little nervous. He was not as good as Yelu Chongguang in spying on information!
"We don't need their distribution map. They may not have a distribution map. Just let the brothers observe and know the location!"
At that time, this will be the coordinates of the artillery truth launch!
Liang Chuan doesn't need to fight these pirates head-to-head, he just needs to bomb them indiscriminately!
"Lao Wei, what do you think is the right way to fight these people?"
Su Wei observed for a day and also used Liang Chuan's telescope to observe for a long time.
"I'm afraid these people won't be entrenched here for a day or two anymore!"
“The island has all the facilities, it seems it has been ingrained for a long time!”
"Xia Dehai!"
"Mr. Su!"
"My boss just gave you a good order. If you know yourself and your enemy, you will be victorious in any battle. As long as you keep a good watch these days, don't take the initiative to fight. If the enemy makes any moves, use your tongues to find out the enemy's background!"
"Yes, Mr. Su!"
Of the three ships, Xia Dehai moved the ship to stay and continue to monitor. Liang Chuan and Su Wei quickly returned to Qingyuan Port to arrange the next task.
"Why does my boss like this island so much? Tell me carefully. The old man only knows that Yizhou is also in a chaotic state and there are savages in the mountains. It was not that Wei Wen didn't want to bring the population back to Soochow, but the savages on the island were fierce. , just can’t succeed!”
"Old Wei, you don't understand. Yizhou has been an inseparable part of China since ancient times. Do you know that the two pieces of land on the seabed are connected? It was just that the land and sea changed and they sank into the sea!"
"For many years, our Chinese orthodoxy has exercised jurisdiction over this island, and reunification is imperative! Any forces that want to get involved in this island and are rebellious, if I, Liangchuan, don't expel them today, someone else will come to regain this land!"
Liang Chuan suddenly felt as if he had a sacred mission on his shoulders!
The last person to complete this mission was named Zheng, also known as Guo Xingye! Now I have to fulfill this sacred mission!
Thousands of years from now, will there be someone who writes down a few words about themselves so that their journey to this world will not be in vain?
