Chapter 102: Father and Son Talk

Is she going to ask for my name and address?

Li Luo smiled.

Of course, since the other party entrusted him to take Ji Jiuniang to the time, he also had the intention of taking Ji Jiuniang back, and it was normal to ask him for his name.

In ancient times, the relationship between robbers and officials and soldiers was definitely not as simple as black and white, life and death, and it was normal for them to be unclear about each other.

"This official Li Luo is the training envoy of the Jianghua regiment!" Li Luo said loudly, and directly removed the word "deputy".

Team training envoy?

Shi Yan was stunned for a moment. He originally thought that Li Luo was a regular Yuan army sailor, and his military position was at least a deputy Qianhu, but he didn't expect that he was a regimental training envoy!

The regimental training envoy is not big, not even a military attachΓ©, not even a sailor, which pirate is suppressed?

Suddenly, Shi Yan regretted it a little.

The girl was also anxious, and put a horn to her mouth and shouted: "Oh, you are not a sailor!" How do you deceive people! ”

Li Luo laughed: "When did this official say that he was a water master!" What are you lying to do? ”

Yan Falcon, Yan Tong and the others burst into laughter together. The pirate girl's face turned red with anger.

Shi Yan snorted and said loudly: "Master Li! Coral is young and ignorant, and he has no words, please Haihan! He turned his head to the girl and deliberately said loudly: "Stupid words! Who said you have to be a sailor to eradicate pirates? I believe that Master Li will be able to exterminate the pirates! ”

Li Luo and the others, including the pirates, all looked strange when they heard Shi Yan's words.

Li Luo couldn't help but think: "Damn, you are a pirate leader yourself, the left one exterminates the pirates, and the right one exterminates the pirates, is it really good?" ”

The girl named Coral snorted coldly, looking very unconvinced. Han Gong is extremely vicious, known as Haitu, how can he be so easy to deal with? With this young and gentle group training, I'm afraid it won't work.

Shi Yan was afraid that she would make disrespectful remarks again and anger the officials and soldiers, so he hurriedly shouted: "Lord Li! Is it possible to sail downwind? ”

Li Luo said: "The stone boat owner, please!" Then he ordered: "Turn the rudder and open the distance!" ”

King Shi Hai breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the ships of the official army pulling away.

Hang!

He had no doubt that if the petty official was not satisfied, he would definitely order the stone cannon to be fired.

Once the fight starts, most of the ships on his side will be destroyed and people will die. As a former "big ship owner", he still has this judgment.

In the words of his daughter Sango, it is that the father is getting less and less courageous.

…………

Li Luo couldn't help but laugh when he saw the pirate ship in the distance.

Is this a windfall?

That Han Gong, who claimed to be the owner of the island, gathered thousands of people, plundered the people, and opened mines to smelt iron...... Really do a good thing.

Such a person is not in a hurry to brush up on his own experience?

At this time, Yan Duo, who was seriously seasick, also went to the deck, and when he saw the letter, his pale face immediately looked a lot better.

"Wu'er, this Han Gong mistakenly killed Meng Yuanqin and fell into the prestige of Kublai Khan, and the Yuan court is bound to open a good reward. Kill this person, at least two levels in a row! Yan Duo laughed.

Li Luo is now the eighth grade, and he can achieve the seventh grade by upgrading two levels in a row.

If you make this feat, and then spend money to do it, it will be easy to rise straight from the sixth grade!

Then by June next year, we will have a greater grasp of four or five products. With enough military positions, he will not only be able to train more soldiers, but also have the qualifications to command tens of thousands of remnants of the army after the hurricane.

Only with a certain military rank can he win the role of a chess player in the war of the Yuan army's conquest of Japan, and use this golden opportunity to complete the most crucial jump and obtain the greatest benefits.

What's the point of hiding on a treasure island and being the king?

The difficulty is too low, and he is blind.

Therefore, promotion is Li Luo's most urgent matter at present, and it is also something that cannot be solved by money alone. If he is not promoted, he will not be able to expand the army justifiably.

But if you want to kill Han Gong and dye him red, it is not easy.

Li Luo said to Yan Duo: "Father-in-law, Han Gong has thousands of outlaws, and we only have a few hundred soldiers and horses in Goryeo. Recruits can only be sent out after two or three months of training. ”

Yan Duo smiled: "You don't have to wait that long. Don't you still want to emigrate? There are still thousands of Jurchen refugees in Goryeo today, many of whom were the last people who followed me against the Yuan eight years ago, and they can be regarded as veterans who fought hard battles with the Yuan army. ”

This time I went to Haidong, and although the hundreds of strong people recruited from the Jurchen immigrants did not undergo the strict training of the Xiangyong style, they were all proficient in fighting, and they were the veterans that Yan Duo said.

Eight years ago, Yan Duo took advantage of the decisive battle between Meng Yuan and the Great Song Dynasty in Xiangyang and the main force to the south, and raised troops in Shandong for the last time in the name of "acting for the king and marshal of the capital". Tens of thousands of rebels fought all the way to Hebei, held out for nearly two years, and finally suffered a crushing defeat because of lack of food and grass.

Since then, the old and decrepit Wan Yan Duo has completely extinguished the idea of raising troops again.

Li Luo asked, "Father-in-law, how many of them are still strong veterans today?" ”

Yan Duo thought for a while and replied: "There are still the remaining Jurchen refugees in Goryeo, veterans between twenty-five and forty-five, and it is estimated that there are still five or six hundred. Coupled with the younger, hot-blooded sons, there is no problem in making up 800 soldiers. ”

Eight hundred!

Li Luo was overjoyed in his heart, plus these eight hundred soldiers, the strength was enough.

"Father-in-law sees clearly! Eight hundred people can be used when recruited, but it saves a lot of effort! Li Luo said happily.

Han Gong, Han Gong, you must open a mine for me to make iron, live well, and don't let the Yuan army be wiped out.

You want me to exterminate it, give me the opportunity to eliminate harm for the people and serve the court!

You're going to wait for me.

When Li Luo thought of this, he suddenly felt a little ridiculous.

Yan Duo stood up on the bow of the boat, pointed to the northwest direction, and said in a heroic voice: "Wu'er, there are still tens of thousands of Jurchen homeless people in that Liaodi, all of whom are from their father's old department, and most of them are still listening to their father's orders. If you have enough food and weapons, you can at least gather 5,000 elite soldiers! ”

What he said was that there was enough food and weapons, not enough money and food, and there was a difference.

For those who raised troops, the most important thing was food and ordnance, not money. When there is a war, most of your money will not be able to buy food, and no one will dare to sell your food, or there will be nowhere to buy food.

"Rest assured, father-in-law, we will have enough food. Haidong Island is the granary of the future! The five thousand Jurchen elite soldiers that my father-in-law said, it won't take long for me to be able to afford them! Li Luo said, he coveted the five thousand elite soldiers.

Of course, Li Luo understands the truth of food. Therefore, no matter how much windfall he has, he will open up wasteland to grow grain.

In ancient times, if you had to choose the only hard currency, it could only be grain.

In terms of money alone, if he sold the skins and precious stones on the ship, plus the tens of thousands of taels of silver, he would have raised an army of 10,000.

But he couldn't afford it, because he didn't have that much food.

You say buy food?

Buying grain in large quantities for a long time is purely looking for death, and there is no need to explain.

Only when we produce enough food can we really afford to feed an army. Money alone doesn't count.

Yan Duo nodded: "For my father, I believe you can do it." Overseas tuntian is a big priority, and it must be smooth. Not only do you have to find ways to immigrate more, but you also have to buy more cattle and mares. ”

Li Luo said: "Mare? The stepfather thinks he wants to raise horses on the island? ”

Yan Duo said: "If you want to think about things, you have to have at least thousands of cavalry. Nowadays, the Mongols are very close to military horses, and it is difficult to buy them. It is better to buy the mare slowly and transport it to Haidong. ”

Li Luo nodded: "My father-in-law is extremely worried. In the east of the sea, there is an extremely narrow meadow land, more than 200 miles from north to south, several miles from east to west, the water and grass are abundant, and thousands of horses can be raised. ”

Yan Duo said: "You don't know much about buying a mare, think of a way for your father." ”

Li Luo smiled: "Then it's hard for my father." ”
