Chapter 900: The light west forces the light east
In addition to the treasure cave, Mai Ke, Peter, and Meng Baxi saw those Jonah fish, each carrying a ton of silver, down the waterfall of the rapids, and going upstream!
I don't know how they did it, but with a hundred and eighty tons of self-weight and a ton of silver, they jumped up and swooped to the top of the waterfall.
The movement is light, like a cloud swallow drilling into the sky!
Mai Ke and Peter were relaxed and happy, and Meng Baxi was dumbfounded, again!
Little Jonah had greeted Mai Ke and brought the three of them up again, but Mai Ke and Peter were a little embarrassed at this time.
They are already heavy enough, so how can they be burdened again?
As for Meng Baxi's opinion, don't worry about it, it is estimated that he is still in a coma.
Little Jonah was polite, and seeing that they didn't need to help themselves, he also turned his head and "swished" back to the top of the waterfall.
Mai Ke and Peter reached out and grabbed one of Meng Baxi's arms, and shouted, "Let's go too!"
Then there was a whoosh, and it went straight to the top of the waterfall.
They all stopped, and the old man was still shouting, "Let me go, what are you going to do? Don't pull me if you want to die!"
But he shouted, but he didn't dare to open his eyes, until he reached the top of the waterfall, put him down, and closed his eyes and shouted there.
It turned out that the old man was a little afraid of heights, although he didn't get sick.
Peter couldn't help but laugh, slapped him in the face, woke him up, and complained, "When you arrive, don't cry wolf!
Seeing that Lao Meng was so embarrassed that he couldn't cry or laugh, Mai Ke couldn't help laughing!
Looking for him on the back of the bear's waist, Mai Ke slapped Peter a few times and said: "You kid can't use words, don't use them blindly! Only the juniors embarrass the elders, where there are more counterparts." The elders have embarrassed the juniors, and why don't you apologize to your uncle soon?"
"Ah? Wrong again? Your Chinese is too complicated! How can you say a sentence and divide the generations? Forget it, I'll apologize!"
As soon as the episode passed, a boat that was about to send the silver back to their hometown sailed over.
All the money was loaded onto the boat, and ten boats returned the same way, and the money was given to the villagers of the old house of the boat gang, and the other ten boats met the poor villagers with the army. Relief is given.
Mai Ke This is just the beginning, he is not worried about spending this little bit of silver, not to mention the businesses of the Ning family in various places, corrupt officials, local tyrants and inferior gentry, etc., can also provide financial resources for the poor.
Mai Ke went to the station of the Black Dragon Pond Fortress again and appointed Meng Baxi as the new commander of the fortress.
In fact, the people here are very familiar with Meng Baxi, because the team here is all from the original boat gang.
Peter, of course, came, too, and Madame was to give birth here, and the two of them hurried to have a good time.
Mai Ke finished arranging things and came out. Shout, "Peter!
However, Peter was not called out by Mai Ke, and Mai Ke was called in by Peter instead.
It turned out that the best house here was given to Ruofei, and the house was very large, but there were two problems.
One is that there is no sunlight and it is dark, and the other is that it feels very cold.
Peter, a man with a big grin, felt that both of these defects would have a very negative effect on the pregnant woman.
Therefore, he called Mai Ke in. See if there's a way to improve.
Mai Ke came in and took a look, and agreed with Peter. If there is no major improvement, and the problem is still there, then don't stay here.
Mai Ke looked around and felt that he could still work hard, because the surrounding scenery was still good, and the materials used for the entire building were solid rocks. It can withstand all kinds of construction.
So, Mai Ke used gold elements to make a large hole in the roof, so that the heavenly officials outside could shine in, and made transparent flakes with earth elements to seal the hole. Light can still come in, but rain, sand, and tiny creatures are all kept out.
Then, Mai Ke separated the large space inside to create an independent living room.
In each room, Mai Ke has set up a temperature control function to keep the temperature in my room constant, and the temperature in each room is different, and the problem between the two rooms is two degrees.
That is, from the first room to the tenth room, the temperature drop is twenty degrees, Celsius.
In this way, Meng Ruofei could choose his favorite space temperature, and there was no longer any fear of being cold.
Seeing that Mai Ke solved this almost unsolvable problem by dividing five by two, Peter, Meng Ruofei, and Meng Baxi were shocked together!
Is there anything else this guy can't do?
Peter solved his worries, said goodbye to his wife and father-in-law, and went away without worry.
From this Black Dragon Pond Fortress down, there is no decent natural barrier, so a large group of people poured out of the Black Dragon Pond Fortress and pressed towards the land of Guangdong with a momentum of thousands of miles!
This pressure is very talkative.
Because the relationship between the two lights has always been from East Asia to West Light.
In particular, the history of the last two or three hundred years is a special testament to this trend.
Guangdong represents openness, while Guangxi's west represents closure; because Guangdong has convenient sea routes, the influence of the great powers has always affected all levels of Guangdong; while Guangxi, which has penetrated deep into the interior and has been protected at various levels, has thus been isolated from the more advanced things of the great powers.
Guangdong is a political and military place, therefore, the military force is also relatively strong, and Guangxi is not only remote, but also often have troubles caused by the people, so Guangdong often sends troops to trace the river and attack Guangxi, these military actions, clean up the people, is also Guangdong force to suppress Guangxi.
Even if the Governor of Liangguang not long ago led his troops to attack Guangxi, and confronted the Heavenly Army in Juezhou and other places, it was Guangdong who overwhelmed Guangxi.
Since Gwangju, the capital of Gwangdong, has long been one of the ports of opening up to the outside world, new ideas, new technologies, new weapons, and new cultures have come one after another, and Gwangdong has become a rising force, constantly developing westward, up the river, and spreading to Gwangseo.
And Guangxi is conservative and can only be passive and defensive, and the situation is getting worse day by day.
However, now the whole Qiankun has reversed, Guangxi has turned from defense to offense, and it has entered Guangdong on a large scale and overwhelmed Guangdong.
All Guangxi people are high-spirited and proud!
The memory of them being oppressed by the Guangdong people is unforgettable.
Now the river channel of the river is flat and wide, and there are still two teams of Jonah fish on both sides, marching in unison, and the middle part is a troop carrier, and now ten treasure ships have been added, and on both sides are the captains of the navy warships.
Behind the formation is now the naval forces of the Celestial Army.
Mai Ke. Peter and Paul were on command ships, and the strategy developed by the three of them was to quickly pass the Guò River River, then to Guò Gwangju, to the Zhu River, and finally to the sea route, and then to the sea route, through the East China Sea, to the Yellow Sea, and from there to the Yellow River. Huai River.
Due to the fact that the Yellow River has been seized into the Yellow River many times in history, the estuaries of the two rivers are very close to each other.
And for the same reason, in the lower reaches of two rivers, there are often cases where two rivers cross each other.
This is also one of the reasons why Mai Ke considered the two together when formulating the strategic plan for the decisive battle between the two rivers.
Therefore, for the cities along the way, the basic strategy is to watch their actions!
If they dare to stop the Heavenly Army, then you are welcome and resolutely destroy it!
If they honestly guard themselves, then the Celestial Army will open the net and let them go.
The most welcome thing for the Celestial Army was that they would raise the city and surrender, so that the Celestial Army would take over the city, connect it with the base area in Guangxi, and officially incorporate it into the administrative system of the Celestial Kingdom, including the military protection system.
The army marched eastward, and none of the four county-level cities it passed through at the beginning dared to trouble the Heavenly Army, including Fengkai County, Yunan County, Chunqing County, and Yun'an County. Among them, Fengkai County was the happiest, and simply surrendered to the Heavenly Army, becoming the first county-level city in the history of Guangdong to surrender to Guangxi.
Mai Ke and others also simply put Fengkai County under the jurisdiction of our state government, and Sven was still in Wuzhou, and he personally came over to arrange various affairs.
By the time the Heavenly Army moved to the next coastal city, all the affairs of Fengkai County had been arranged.
The main thing was the addition of a regiment of the Celestial Army, and in this period, special protection was given to the prefectural orders of the affairs of this time.
After four counties, in front of it is Zhaozhou, the first prefecture-level city in Guangdong!
This place is no stranger to Mai Ke, because he has fought fiercely with the third uncle of Mrs. Ning Ningrui's second grandfather's family here!
That guy is the biggest obstacle for Serenity to take over the patriarch.
His name is Jianingling, and he is the third son of Jingrui's second grandfather, and Jingrui also calls him the third uncle.
In order to compete for the inheritance of the head of the family, he used all the means to force Jingrui into the Black Dragon Pond and destroy the corpse.
He was later captured by Mai Kesheng and is still imprisoned in the prison system of Heaven.
For this kind of person who endures cannibalism for personal gain, Mai Ke hates it deeply, and he will never be soft when punished.
This place in Zhaozhou originally also had the power to wear goofs, but later after the Black Dragon Pond Fortress was built, the Qing army's naval division attacked it many times, except for two deliberate put it in, almost none of the attacks were successful.
As a result, these sailors of the Qing army took their anger out on the boat gang stationed in Zhaozhou.
Because there is no solid defensive system here, after the Qing army encircled and suppressed it many times, in order to preserve its strength, it withdrew into the Black Dragon Pond fortress.
Now, the sailor stationed here is the Manchu general Peng Yulin, since the last time he accompanied the governor of Liangguang to participate in the purge failure, quite a lot of trouble, and set up a new sailor, from Gwangju, although did not try to break through the fortress again, but outside the fortress, built a defensive line, to prevent the Celestial Army from the Black Dragon Pond fortress, down the river to the east, to capture Gwangju.
He always believed that the Qing army, which had failed in several purge attempts, was the greatest threat to Manchu rule.
Therefore, every day, he was building the barrage iron locks on the section of the Xijiang River in front of Zhaozhou, the fortifications on both sides of the river, and more importantly, the purchase and construction of new division warships and new weapons.
Therefore, the strength in Gwangdong and Gwangju also spared no effort to support him.
In his opinion, the defense of the Zhaozhou River section can be called impregnable, and it will be difficult for the Heavenly Army to break through!.
