Chapter 897: Kyushu
Liu Zheng was originally unwilling to take Lu Qiling to Kyushu Island.
After all, this time to Kyushu Island, although the danger is not particularly great, but no matter what, you also need to fight Yan Baihu, and there must be danger.
These female soldiers under Lu Qiling have only been recruited for a long time, and they don't have much combat experience, so if they are directly allowed to go to the battlefield, it will be a little too harsh.
The casualties may be very large, and it seems somewhat irrational to let them go to the battlefield without much experience.
However, when I thought that this trip to Kyushu Island was an expedition after all, if there was no female companion by his side, Liu Zheng would be more or less bored.
So Liu Zheng plans to take the concubines of his harem, and the number of people does not need to be large, just bring a Mi Zhen with him. And Mi Zhen usually gets closer to Lu Qiling.
If Liu Zheng wants to bring Mi Zhen, then simply bring Lu Qiling's female generals over.
As Lu Qiling said, what the female generals lack is actual combat, and the strength of these natives on Kyushu Island should be weaker in comparison, and it can be used as soldiers and horses to train these female soldiers.
In this way, after Lu Qiling begged twice, Liu Zheng still agreed.
This is also considering that Mi Zhen is a woman and it is inconvenient to live, and it may be better to have the company of Lu Qiling and these girl groups.
A few days later.
The pier of Jianye City.
Zhou Tai and Zu Lang's sailors lined up in turn.
Jiang Qin had already taken the lead with 3,000 soldiers and horses to act as the vanguard, and at the same time transported grain and grass to pave the way for Liu Zheng in advance.
The rest of the army is full of 30,000 troops, nearly 100 ships are stationed, and it only takes Liu Zheng's order to send 30,000 troops directly to Kyushu Island.
This is the main force of Liu Zheng to set foot on Kyushu Island.
The civil and military officials sent Liu Zheng off on the dock, but Liu Zheng did not bring Lu Bu and others this time. However, Jinyiwei still has to be brought.
After all, Jin Yiwei is some of the people he relies on the most.
The auxiliary ministers present saluted one by one, Liu Zheng explained a few words, and after letting them handle the next government affairs, they took Lu Qiling, Mi Zhen and others to board the ship.
The ship slowly departed from Yangzhou and headed directly for the island of Kyushu.
Although the voyage at sea, Zhou Tai and others have been back and forth several times, and they are not strangers to Kyushu Island. However, it still takes a few days to sail by boat.
End of September.
The ships of Liu Zheng and others appeared on a small island outside Kyushu.
A stretch of sandy beach, washed by the sea, crashing against the shore, and the sound of a thin stream of water is heard.
With the not too hot sunshine at the end of September, the sea breeze is blowing, but it is really a little pleasant.
Liu Zheng, accompanied by Mi Zhen, walked down from the dragon boat.
Here, Jiang Qin and the others had already deployed a camp in advance, and Liu Zheng didn't need to bother much, he just needed to go over and rest directly.
Although Liu Zheng had already known about the existence of Kyushu Island, Liu Zheng did not know much about the specific situation on Kyushu Island.
At the same time, because of the intricacies of the forces on Kyushu Island, Liu Zheng did not want to directly and rashly land on Kyushu Island.
After all, Yan Baihu has been developing on Kyushu Island for several years, and he still has more power than Liu Zheng on the island.
Liu Zheng, who has always been cautious, naturally decided to let his navy temporarily station on a small island outside Kyushu Island first.
It's not too big, but it's not too big, a larger island made up of a bunch of smaller islands, and it's home to some of its own indigenous people.
It is not counted from Kyushu Island, Liu Zheng's target, in fact, it is only half a day's journey, but this is a small island after all, and the residents of Kyushu Island rarely come here, so a relatively independent situation has been formed.
Liu Zheng let Jiang Qin arrive here in advance, and after occupying a small island, he used this small island as a temporary camp, first, to continue to control the island, and secondly, to invade Kyushu for him, as a transit station, a base area.
If the war on Kyushu Island is unclear and no progress is made, he will be able to return to this island for a while.
It's better than directly setting the headquarters on Kyushu Island and being directly defeated by Kyushu Island.
Liu Zheng came to this small island, and after letting people explore the situation on this small island, Liu Zheng began to take a small boat to Kyushu Island to inquire about the news on Kyushu Island.
"Husband, the scenery on this island is not bad, this time we should have come here for an autumn tour."
Mi Zhen snuggled up to Liu Zheng's side.
Looking at the scenery on this island, there are few people here after all, although there are some natives, but these natives are still relatively primitive, there are not many signs of civilization, and the clothes they wear are simple animal skins and some rough linen.
There are a lot of birds on the island and the scenery is pleasant.
"This is a small day...... The place where the natives of Kyushu Island live who have lived a good life have not suffered much damage, and there are few wars on the island, so it is normal for the scenery to be beautiful, but in comparison, there are more places with beautiful scenery in my Han Dynasty, at least for my husband, I once arrived at a place called Peach Blossom Valley. ”
"Where is the scenery really pleasant, if I can, I really want to stay in that paradise for the rest of my life, away from strife, with you."
Of course, Liu Zheng's words are just talking, a manly man, born in heaven and earth, should make immortal achievements, and escaping from the world is not a hero.
Even if Liu Zheng really wants to go into hiding, it will be after the world is unified and the people live and work in peace and contentment.
Liu Zheng originally wanted to arrest two local natives and come over for questioning.
However, after catching one, he found that he couldn't understand what they said at all, and he was at a loss when he asked them questions, so Liu Zheng gave up this plan.
Only let his people go to Kyushu Island to find out about Yan Baihu's situation first, and then Liu Zheng will make plans.
After a few days of calm on the island, the spies and brocade guards who had been sent out finally gathered some information.
Liu Zheng finally understood some of the details of the situation on Kyushu Island.
Kyushu Island, although it is known as Kyushu.
But in fact, the territory is really not big, it is equivalent to half a state of Dahan.
If you want to talk about larger states, such as Yangzhou and Yizhou, I am afraid that there is not even a third.
But on the island of Kyushu, there are three forces.
The indigenous country of Yamatai, the Great Qin in the north, and later Yan Baihu.
