The lead bullets flying out of the scorching barrel were not round.

And it's like smoking after a cold, and when you cough, you spit out a big sticky sputum that is black from the smoke.

Half-melted large sticky sputum-like buckshot stuck on the Cossack's face like a cake.

Before the smoke cleared, the tribesmen on both sides of the ice castle had already rushed out under the leadership of the two sentinels.

Du Feng relied on his intuition and felt that he had shot and killed, but he didn't feel much.

It's a bit disgusting, but it's more due to the smell of blood.

The heavy smell of blood was a little sweet and a little stinky, and this strange smell mixed together was like a brush tickling in my throat.

Saliva continued to grow under his tongue, trying to suppress the urge to spit out.

I grabbed a handful of snow and stuffed it into my mouth, barely dispelling the sweet smell in my mouth.

He didn't move for half a day, until someone ran over to him and told him that the battle was over.

Several Cossacks ran into the woods, and the hunters of the Horde were chasing.

A few were captured, and the rest of the wounded, out of kindness and compassion, were mended.

Otherwise, on such a cold day, the bleeding sticks to the ice, and you can't move and freeze to death, which is quite pitiful, so it's better to cut your head quickly.

Those veterans who followed Liu Yu may have never fought such a comfortable battle in their lives. Originally, I just thought that Liu Yu was a good official, worthy of love but less awe, but after this battle, there was more than a dozen catties of awe at once, about the same as a head.

There was nothing to say during the battle, and the salvo within ten meters directly knocked the Rakshasa people apart. All that's left is to chase and flee.

Du Feng soon ran over from a distance, and replied proudly: "Lord Hui, fortunately, I am not dishonored." The artillery of the Rakshasa has been taken by us. My lord is clever, and those Rakshasas are exactly what my lord expected. ”

Liu Yu looked at Du Feng's dress and said curiously: "What are you doing with so many jackets?" When A? ”

"Uh......"

Du Feng was really embarrassed to say that he was dressed like this, because he was frightened by the stupid dogs whose owners were killed and didn't know revenge, so he smiled and covered up the past.

The three cannons were also carried over by him, Liu Yu kicked twice, and shook his head slightly.

The caliber is too small, and there is no field gun mount, it is estimated that it is a leather gun eliminated by Sweden?

Du Feng thought about Liu Yu's previous complaint about "playing chess in a stinky chess basket", Du Feng didn't understand a little, and asked: "My lord, the Rakshasa people also use light artillery. In this way, the Rakshasa people also play chess with the stinky chess basket too much? ”

Liu Yu snorted and said with a wry smile: "Where are the elites of the five battalions of the Rakshasa here, but they are just some soldiers from the open side." The Rakshasas are in the west, and it is not the stinky chess basket that plays chess together. ”

"My lord said that the experience of fighting with the southwestern Tusi is not only not enough, but harmful. But my lord, the patients of the national dynasty, one is the northwest, the second is the southwest Tusi, and the third is the Rakshasa country. The rest, such as North Korea, are all filial sons. According to adults, the Rakshasa people play chess with masters in the west, and it won't stink too much. But the problem is that the dynasty is here, and there are no chess players to play against. Have you ever heard of dragon slaying? Even if you learn the dragon slaying technique, if you don't have a dragon to use, isn't it for nothing? ”

Liu Yu sighed: "That's what I said." There are no dragons to slaughter for the time being, but there are evil dragons that have grown up and will fly over sooner or later. Now that there is no dragon, it is estimated that it is difficult for the DPRK and China to have the heart to learn; When the dragon flies, where is it too late to learn? This is where all my worries lie. ”

Du Feng saw that Liu Yu was worried, and he also had a little admiration in his heart.

After thinking about it, Fan Zhongyan could say that "if you are high in the temple, you are worried", that person is the prime minister. This Lord Liu can say the same, his father is Guogong, and I am just a white body now, why do you want to do so much?

The ministers of the DPRK and the Central Committee said a lot: The rise and fall of the world is the responsibility of the husband, and the shouting is loud, but I have lived in the Acropolis of Handoli for more than ten years, and I have never seen a minister's son take the initiative to come to such a place.

Du Feng has not grown up yet, and he always has the unique rebellion of young people. I have personally experienced the fact that those sled dogs were "ruined by the golden jade", and I always feel that Liu Yu is also alarmist?

The Xiyi people can't be like those sled dogs, right?

It looks like a wolf, but in fact it can't bite people at all?

Liu Yu saw that Du Feng lowered his head and didn't know what he was thinking there, thinking that Du Feng was still entangled in meritorious service, so he said, "Okay, you go down first." I've written it down for you. ”

"Master Xie."

After saluting, he retreated, and Liu Yu did not look at the corpses of the battlefield, but came to the vicinity of those tribesmen.

After this battle, in the eyes of these tribesmen, the Celestial Empire was like a god.

In their opinion, the "evil ghost" who could not be parried at all died in an instant.

Those legends of the year have really come true. When I looked at Liu Yu again, it was like watching the gods descend to earth, trembling one by one.

Liu Yu had the intention to let a few of these people go back with him, so he said: "You are the tributes of the Heavenly Dynasty. It's just that it has been difficult to pay tribute since the year of Xuande. If you follow me to the Celestial Empire and pay tribute to the Son of Heaven, you will naturally have the protection of the Son of Heaven in the future, and you will not be afraid of those evil ghosts. I don't know what you have here, but since it's a tribute, it's enough to show your heart. ”

He didn't know how that translator was translated, and according to the Celestial Empire system, the tributary was a loss to the Celestial Empire.

But...... Cloth, silk, porcelain, these things, without them, can be reproduced.

And the land, it is no longer possible to reproduce.

The tributary system lasts to the end, and it can be integrated into the Westphalian system in another form. Even in the case of the Treaty of Shimonoseki, the first article was neither a loss of money nor Taiwan, but a recognition of Korea as an independent state from the tributary system.

From the point of view of land and legal theory, it is worth losing a little silk in a year.

Anyway, these people may not be able to see the Son of Heaven, but if they go to the Songhua River to defend the envoy and hand over the tribute, and the emperor will give a little bit, these people will be very happy.

The elders of the tribe remember the legends of ancient times, which are nothing more than walrus tusks and mink skins, and there are many of them in the tribe. It is really worth exchanging this little thing for the protection of the Son of Heaven.

After a little discussion, it was decided that two young men from each tribe would follow Liu Yu with tribute.

Liu Yu asked again which other tribes were around, and selected a few from the tribes who knew the way.

At dinnertime, all the Rakshasas were either dead or captured, and there was nowhere to escape in this weather. These tribesmen can't fight in formation, but they have a great ability to trace and capture and escape.

After inquiring clearly, it became clear that these people had a winter camp in the north. This time it was thought that the slaughtering tribe could get furs, so the Cossacks came, and there were only a few women left in the winter camp.

The gunners were not from this batch of Cossacks, but from Okhotsk. You don't need to participate in hand-to-hand combat, and you can share the money just by being responsible for operating the gun.

After asking clearly, Liu Yu was also relieved. Every year more Cossacks die in such places, no more, no less, and most of these Cossacks act spontaneously and do not arouse official alarm. At least not this year.

After counting, a total of sixteen prisoners were captured. A few Cossacks, the rest were naturalized Buragular.

Du Feng whispered: "My lord, you can die." It's also difficult and dangerous for us to go back. Then they had to divide the men and the food. ”

Liu Yu nodded and shook his head.

This is the same thing he thinks as Du Feng, it is really troublesome to bring it back. But as for getting killed...... Sometimes, the mortal is also useful.

After boiling the ink, he took out the paper and wrote dozens of pieces of paper, with a sentence on it: The local area is protected by China, and China is tributed.

"In this way, Du Feng, you take people to serve the winter camp that the Rakshasa people said. Along the way, I searched the tribes everywhere, and it was estimated that they had the heart to resist the rakshasas, but they didn't have the guts. Take the captives around a few times, and let the tribesmen here blow it for us. ”

"Those who are willing to submit to the tributary give them the paper and tell them that they don't have to pay the rakshasas in the future. Let them go out with two more people, with walrus tusks or some other mess, and follow me back. ”

"After taking the captives around, the tribes that are willing to pay tribute, then leave some souvenirs on these 'evil ghosts'. Whether it's fingers or ears, see how many tribes there are. Try to get a little blood on every tribe that is willing to pay tribute. ”

"If you have something, come to Songhua River to find the minister of the Son of Heaven. I guess the news will spread all over the world in a few years, and the people here will be dissatisfied, and the people further north will probably be dissatisfied. Let them make trouble, anyway, we have a lot of resources, not a few pieces of money from the tribe, the Rakshasa people are ruthless, we will be soft. Bury the thorn first, and we'll have the final say in the future. ”

Du Feng was ordered to do it, and Liu Yu continued to lead people to draw maps along the coastline.

A few men were sent to Sakhalin Island from the strait dozens of miles wide to take advantage of the freezing winter, smashed the Orthodox cross on it, and inserted a log that made a declaration.

Those who remained in the tribal camp collected some of the shells that the tribe had eaten and burned some lime. The sacks of human heads were brined with lime and salt, and waited to go back and exchange for money.

I tossed and turned until the end of February of the following year, and everything that needed to be done was almost done.

Du Feng destroyed the winter camp of the Rakshasa people, and went to several tribes along the way, and the parts on those Rakshasa people also became the bone weapons of various tribes.

Along with the surrounding areas, a total of more than forty tribes received the paper.

Two people from one tribe, and on the thirteenth day of March, Liu Yu and the people of those tribes sacrificed to the sky in Yongning Temple, and swore an oath that they would not betray.

After the sacrifice, there were more than 100 people in the team, and they returned with Liu Yu.

Along the way, some tribes were constantly gathered, and they all sent people to follow Liu Yu, taking advantage of the good winter, and finally returned to the camp where they had left people to garrison in April when the snow began to melt.

The people brought by Jiao Lao Butu have not returned, and the people in the camp are the same as the people led by Liu Yu, and they are no longer much different from the wild people.

The beard was unkempt, his face was covered with oil, and the black putty covered his fur jacket and hat. Looking forward to the stars and the moon, I finally looked forward to the day when I went home, even though I was reduced to such a state, but I was still thunderous.

They all thought that as long as Jiao Lao Butu returned, they could go back.

However, Liu Yu did not think so.

The reason why he chose to camp here, and why he had to return by June, was for the sake of one man, Vitas Bering.

Or rather, for the map of Siberia and the Heilongjiang River basin in Bering's hands.

Since there are ships in Stepanovsk, Bering will definitely go down the Heilongjiang River. The Japanese he brought with him made Liu Yu judge that Bering was preparing to enter the sea from Heilongjiang and look for a route to Japan.

From the stories of the tribes around Sakhalin, we know that the Japanese did come here before.

In fact, in the eighth year of Chongzhen, the Matsumae clan sent Sato Yoshimo Saemon to come.

If the Xuande period had not been reduced and the tributary system had continued, it was likely that a trade route of furs, tributaries, silk rewards, and Japanese miscellaneous goods would have developed.

But because after Xuande, even if the slave Gandusi was pulled, when the Japanese came here in the seventh year of Chongzhen, they found that there was really nothing to trade, so they didn't stop. These tribes have also lost the opportunity to communicate with the outside world, until now.

Theoretically, it is certainly possible to go to Japan here, and after Sakhalin Island is Hokkaido.

When he was talking and laughing with Hannibal at Rakshasa Castle before, Liu Yu cared about Bering and Chuanbingwei, and it could be deduced from the side knocks that Bering would definitely go to sea.

I chose this place because Heilongjiang left a lot of sandbars and islands in the middle of the river, making the river relatively narrow.

If you can't outwit it, it is also advantageous to rely on the strong attack on Shazhou Island.

In any case, it is necessary to grab that ship, seize Bering, coercion, inducement, or coercion.

There are pictures to take pictures, but there are no pictures to draw.
