Now that we have come to the East China Sea, we have to do business. Han Bairen was sent to ask the merchant ships to go to Goguryeo to fight Baekje together and resist the Yingdao warships.
This is true in name, but in fact Han Bairen's purpose is to help Han You clear all obstacles in the East China Sea.
After understanding the situation, Han Bairen turned to look at the map hanging on the tent and scratched the stubble on his chin.
"The chaos in the three realms lies with the boat master. If you want to calm down the three realms, you must first get rid of Yu Yunyao."
"Dad is right, there are three aristocratic families in the East China Sea, each one is more rampant than the other, and they rely on Yu Yunyao, the captain of the boat master."
Han You stepped forward and pointed to the location of the Marine Commander's Camp, which is also the general camp: "Unlike other camps, there are five battalions in the Three-Dao Marine Corps Camp. Each battalion has a full strength of 8,000 people. In fact, the number should be What’s more, if you want to go to the camp, you must pass by Black Sand City, which is built on the coast, and behind the city is the camp.”
"Heisha City is also controlled by Yu Yunyao?"
"Not only Heisha City, but also Jian City, which is only more than three miles away from Heisha City. The two cities have a combined garrison of nearly 30,000 people. Counting the auxiliary soldiers and young men, there is a large camp in each of the two cities. Listen to Yu Yun There are about one hundred thousand people in Yao, which means that Yu Yunyao is king and hegemon in the East China Sea under the protection of one hundred thousand people, and these one hundred thousand people all rely on Yu Yunyao for their livelihood."
"It's difficult, it's as difficult as climbing to the sky."
It was Tie Chen who spoke: "The two cities and one battalion have been managed by Yu Yunyao like an iron barrel. If we take the land route, we need to pass through the second city. If we attack the second city by force, we will defend the city and fight, even with gunpowder. The city can be conquered in three seconds. After the city is broken, Yu Yunyao will see that the situation is over and he will escape to the sea. The warships and the navy will be taken away by him."
"It seems that a forceful attack is not advisable." Han Bairen shook his head: "How many warships are there in the camp? Can we go straight to Huanglong by sea and land?"
"That's not possible. Most of the navy's warships are just decorations. Only the more than fifty warships in the navy's camp are the most sophisticated. Among them, there are twelve large ships and twenty fast boats. If Yu Yunyao really takes them away in one breath, , the Three East China Sea Roads have really become a place where Japanese thieves can come and go freely."
This is what Han You has been having a headache for.
Let alone capturing Yu Yunyao alive, it would be difficult to kill him.
To put it bluntly, this commander-in-chief of the Zhou Dynasty was no different from becoming a self-proclaimed king. Unlike most of the members of Lanshan Academy, he was not the dog of the Japanese thieves. It can only be said that he and the Japanese thieves were using each other.
If Yu Yunyao wants to continue to be his Xiaoyao King of the East China Sea, then he must reflect his value, that is, sit in the East China Sea and prevent the Yingdao shipmen from making large-scale attacks.
If Yingdao wants to train troops, burn, kill, plunder, and lay out the East China Sea in the three lanes of the East China Sea, it needs Yu Yunyao to turn a blind eye.
As for Yu Yunyao, he needed the imperial court to give him this title, the title of Commander-in-Chief of the Navy. Only with this title on his head would the Japanese thieves try their best to win over him.
Whether it is said that this old coffin has both sides, or that he can judge the situation, in short, the imperial court needs him to control Yingdao, and Yingdao also needs him to open the door for convenience.
So if we attack the two cities of Heisha and Jiancheng by force, it is not impossible to fight, let alone the two cities. Even if the Three East China Sea Road rebels against the imperial court, we can fight. But what is the meaning after fighting?
First of all, Yu Yunyao couldn't be killed or caught.
As long as the imperial army broke through the two cities of Heisha and Jiancheng, Yu Yunyao would have boarded the ship and ran away. The old coffin did not run away by himself, but ran away with countless navy generals and troops, driving a warship run.
This time he ran away, and the Zhou Dynasty really had no naval warfare ability at all. The Japanese thieves could come and leave whenever they wanted, unless the imperial court mobilized hundreds of thousands of troops to guard the entire coastline on the beach.
Now let alone the Korean father and son who came with the imperial army, even if they didn't come, Yu Yunyao never left the boat master's camp, and at most he went to Heisha City and Jian City.
It is useless to cut off food or supply lines. Two cities and one camp do not need land at all. There is no rush. We can go by sea and land. People have boats. There is no rush to pull them from other places. Once there is a fight, or if there is any news, the Japanese thieves will be happy to see the supplies. Send it over so that the Great Zhou Dynasty can continue to consume blood internally.
"that whoever…"
Han Bairen was not as gloomy as others, he seemed to be thinking about other things.
Wang Shan asked: "Use warships to cut off Yu Yunyao's retreat?"
The friends looked at each other. There were only four warships that could fight now, and they had just been captured. It was unthinkable that four warships would cut off the retreat of dozens of other warships.
Wang Shan explained: "There are more than ten sea ships in the camp here. Although they cannot go to sea to fight, they can travel by loading kerosene barrels and gunpowder."
Tie Chen's eyes lit up: "Brother, do you mean to use these broken ships to destroy both the enemy and the stone, attack the city on land, and block Yu Yunyao's retreat at sea with the broken ships?"
"No."
Han Bairen shook his head and said: "This is not even a damn good idea. Warships are already scarce, and they will be burned and exploded. Both sides will suffer losses. Even if Yu Yunyao is stopped, that old dog will lose many warships." "
"What do you mean, General?"
"I want the boat, I want Yu Yunyao's head, I want it, Heisha City, Jian City, I want them all, I want them all."
Everyone: "..."
My friends wanted to laugh, but they didn’t dare.
It would be difficult to stop Yu Yunyao and kill him, as difficult as climbing to the sky. As a result, Lao Han not only wanted to kill him, but also wanted to keep the warship, and he didn't want to suffer any losses. Isn't this just a fantasy?
"father."
Han You was the only one who dared to complain, and said with a wry smile: "I know you care about the warship, but this request is a bit too unrealistic."
"You'er has misunderstood. My father is not being realistic. He doesn't want the warship to be lost. He is afraid that if the Japanese invade again, how can they fight back without the warship?"
"Weren't the Japanese warships blocked by Goguryeo?"
"Goguryeo?"
Han Bairen looked at Han You and said seriously: "Remember what dad said, you can't rely on the sky, you can't rely on the ground, and you can't rely on people, let alone people. Don't think that Goguryeo is a good bird. It's better to rely on yourself than to rely on anyone."
There was a slight cough from the corner, and a slightly embarrassed Gao Minglin reminded: "Commander, the envoy is here."
"Well, I've seen you handsome."
Han Bairen didn't even look back, he looked at the map again, continued to ponder, and continued to scratch his beard.
Gao Minglin walked out: "Commander, how about the little envoy..."
Han Bairen interrupted: "No need."
Gao Minglin couldn't help but smile: "The envoy hasn't finished speaking yet."
"I know what your plan is. You want me to borrow troops from Dazhou, lend you Goguryeo soldiers, lend you Goguryeo warships, and ask your Goguryeo warships to come across the sea to help us stop Yu Yunyao. A way out, right?”
Gao Minglin's expression changed slightly, and he was full of admiration: "Yes, that's what the envoy meant. Your country and I, Goguryeo, are as close as brothers. Since we have formed an alliance, then..."
"I told you there's no need for it."
"But the little envoy has good intentions."
"Do you mean well?"
Han Bairen turned his head, gritted his teeth and said with a smile: "Do you think that I don't know what your plans are? When your Goguryeo navy arrives, you will say that it is to stop you. I wish you could sink all the warships under Yu Yunyao's command so that I can There are no ships available in Dazhou. I have no warships in Dazhou, but you Goguryeo have them. At that time, you Goguryeo will be your grandfather, and I, Dazhou, will be your grandson. I will rely on you to guard the warships of the Japanese pirates. I ask you to go to Ying. The island landing operation depends on you, I ask you for everything related to the sea, I beg you, I beg you, if the war situation becomes urgent, Goguryeo may ask for the secret recipe of gunpowder."
After finishing the sentence, Gao Ming's face was as earth-colored.
"I want to be a master in front of me."
Han Bairen's face was full of contempt: "It's your mother's spring and autumn dream."
The friends were all shocked. They were shocked that Han Bairen had not only guessed what Gao Minglin was going to say, but also what Gao Minglin had planned. Looking at Gao Minglin's face, they knew that what Old Han said was absolutely correct.
