The pirates, in turn, suffered even more losses.

The reason for this is that the bow carts used by the vanguards, the arrows are specially processed to pierce the wooden hull of the ship, and the use of speed and the ballista has always maintained a combat advantage in the pursuit of two hours.

The Goryeo pirates had already given up the pursuit when the ship was lost, and they turned around and were about to retreat, but the vanguard ships took advantage of their speed advantage to intercept them to death.

In two hours, they sank a third of the hundreds of small ships of the pirates, causing more casualties and directly making the pirate group ineffective.

Then the vanguard ships quickly approached the shore and intercepted the large ships and small boats accordingly, especially for large ships, using multiple small boat hooks to drag them far from the shore and cut off the enemy's rear route.

The battle was over here, and the vanguard did not stay and returned directly from the sea to Youzhou with the ships.

Yang Xuangan's soldiers and horses were faced with twice as many enemies as him, and they were powerless to resist, and finally led his cronies to choose to flee, and most of the soldiers who followed him and the Goryeo pirates were killed and wounded, and more than half of them chose to surrender.

Laihu'er won the first battle, and his reputation recovered a lot.

It was already a few days later when the battle report was delivered to Jiangling, and Emperor Yang of Sui was very happy to hear the destruction of the pirates, and almost blurted out that he wanted a reward to protect his son.

The ministers reminded in time that nothing ridiculous happened, in fact, these ministers underestimated Emperor Yang of Sui too much, how could such a grudgeful person reward the generals who betrayed him.

Originally, I wanted to find an opportunity to transfer Hu'er out or install some cronies to empty the other party's rights, but the ministers said that the opportunity would be lost.

"Did Yang Xuan catch it?" Emperor Yang of Sui asked.

The old man immediately said: "We are investigating, we haven't found anyone." ”

"How could Yang Xuangan not find it, is it difficult to grow his wings and fly?" Emperor Yang of Sui was very dissatisfied with his husband's answer, and the emperor's temper didn't matter who you were.

The old man seems to have been used to losing his temper with the emperor for a long time, if he doesn't have this eyesight, he is the father-in-law next to the emperor, and he may not be able to get to this point and become the inner servant of His Majesty's side.

"Your Majesty is angry, after all, Yang Xuangan has taken refuge in some forces and has been preserved, as long as he spends a little more time, he will definitely be able to find it."

When the old man said this, it was a promise to stop in the ears of Emperor Yang of Sui.

Emperor Yang of Sui trusted his father-in-law very much and did not make trouble unreasonably.

"Prepare to go back to Luoyang." Emperor Yang of Sui said.

The news that Emperor Yang of Sui was preparing to return to Luoyang once again spread out, the people were extremely depressed, and the merchants in the cloth felt even more desperate.

So before Emperor Yang of Sui was ready to leave Jiangling, Jiangling's cloth industry was greatly impacted, the emperor liked to pay attention to pomp and circumstance, and the people and money were very disgusted in the eyes of the people, but this kind of thing can not be said nonsense, at most it is to complain in his heart.

The Xiao family, Xiao Miao's heart is responsible, he has already received the news that Emperor Yang of Sui is leaving the generals, but he is not at ease and is afraid that there will be some mistakes again.

After Zhang Zhongjian received the news, he rushed to Xiao's house as soon as possible to discuss things with him.

"You said that Your Majesty should really not be held back here by things this time, right?" Xiao Mo asked.

"Probably nothing else." Zhang Zhongjian couldn't get an idea, what the emperor was going to do, how did he know when something would happen, he could only hope in his heart that there would be no problems.

Just when Emperor Yang of Sui was about to leave again, the problem really arose again.

The reason is that the Goryeo pirates were captured by Laihu'er and captured 20,000 people, and they originally wanted to bring all of them to justice, but the pirate generals who took the lead after the interrogation in the court confessed that they were not real pirates at all but Goryeo sailors.

Cooperation with Yang Xuangan is just to take what they need, and it belongs to the relationship of interests, and the interest in the situation is different, from the pirate invasion to the invasion of the Goryeo Kingdom.

Lai Hu'er knew that the impact of this matter was too great, so when Emperor Yang of Sui had just left the gate of Jiangling City, the fold passed by the fast horse was handed over.

After Emperor Yang of Sui saw it, he immediately asked people to return, and he was not allowed to travel far away from Jiangling City three times, and the people were tossed a lot, and many old people in Jiangling City were very dissatisfied, so the pressure on the officials of Jiangling City became very great.

Respect for the old and love for the young was valued in ancient times.

Especially the attitude towards the elderly, even the emperor has to be polite, this is the relationship between people and thoughts in this era, even if Emperor Yang of Sui has a bad temper in the face of the elders, his attitude must be restrained.

The old man here is not just a simple elder, he is talking about the elders who have read books, and each of them may represent a prestige.

Emperor Yang of Sui doesn't care about this kind of trivial matter at all, what is there the courtiers will settle for him, the cost of three trips is very large, resulting in the existing gold and silver have been consumed by most of the gold, if you toss a few times, I am afraid that the food and salary of the cavalry guards will not be settled.

The reason for Emperor Yang of Sui's return this time was that Goryeo sent an envoy to Jiangling to negotiate, and he had the attitude of becoming a vassal state of Sui.

Emperor Yang of Sui was the emperor after all, and he still attached great importance to his reputation in the future, so he simply didn't leave and waited for the arrival of the Goryeo envoy in Jiangling.

The news spread quickly, and several people who were plotting in the Xiao family got the news through Li Mi, and now they are worried about this matter, they never thought that there would be a coincidence every time.

"The first batch of grain has arrived, and although the current situation is not conducive to development, it is just the right time to reserve grain, and it is not urgent to do big things." Li Mi said lightly.

Xiao Mo and Zhang Zhongjian don't know, they know the current situation very well, and they can only wait for the secret development to continue, and it is better to be slower than to fail when things are exposed.

"Master Xiao, don't you think the Goryeo Mission is an opportunity for us?" Li Mi said suddenly.

Xiao Mo was curious: "What do you want to do?" ”

Li Mi looked at Xiao Mi and thought in his heart, he was usually very smart, how could he have no idea when it was critical, and when he saw that the other party really didn't think of it, he explained: "Think about it, if the Goryeo State and the Sui State sign a contract, wouldn't there be no war to fight, and then the emperor only needs to be careful to guard against the Turks, in that case, how can there be a chance to develop, don't you know that Goryeo is a bottomless pit, as long as it involves war, it will be defeated." ”

Xiao Mo immediately realized that this was really the case, Goryeo occupied a favorable position, and millions of soldiers and horses could not help it, if the emperor launched another war against Goryeo.
