Chapter 525: The East China Sea Islands
Entering the account and meeting with the generals of the Shepherd Wolf, there are not many words, although there is respect in the demeanor, but there is no sense of humility, much stronger than the generals of the early sun. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
"General Yu, this rash transmission of the letter is indeed a bit hasty, and I hope General Yu will not be surprised."
"The prince is serious, the end of the war in Chuyang Prefecture has already heard of it, but I don't know the truth of the Liukou, the last general will not dare to act rashly, and the sailors under his command have already stationed troops to cross the thousands of sails, but the last general is worried that after the troops are dispatched, Cang'er Prefecture will be taken advantage of by the Liukou, and he missed the fighter in vain, so please ask the prince to surrender."
Shi Wei secretly exhaled, and Yu Zi pushed the cause and effect completely in a few words, which is by no means easy.
"What is General Yu's crime, the DPRK has never issued a decree, it is the duty of the general to stick to Cang'er, and now he can help with all his might, Li Cheng wants to thank General Yu." Li Luo stood up and saluted.
Yu Ziluo hurriedly replied and said, "The prince has tormented the last general." ”
"Only if you know yourself and know the other side can you plan to do it, can you know the origin of this crime?"
Xiong Pingzhang and Cui Ding looked at each other and opened their mouths.
Xiong Pingzhang looked at Yu Ziluo as if asking for help, and Yu Ziluo said in a deep voice: "Lord Wang, when the Liukou raised troops to make a rebellion, the last general has sent scouts in the army to investigate, and the Liukou who entered the Eastern Mansion this time should be a country outside the territory. ”
"Oh," Li Luo listened attentively, there were not many wars between the foreign sea countries and Dagan, although the islands in the East China Sea were recorded, they were chaotic, and it was rare for someone to know to explain, Cheng Yan asked, "Please advise General Yu." ”
"There are more than 1,000 islands outside Dongfu, and there are still not many islands in Fuzhou to the east, but there are more islands in Dongyanzhou, and there are countless islands all the way over Jingyang Prefecture, which are densely populated.
In his early years, the last general had the intention to count the overseas islands and draw nautical charts, but only later did he realize that this was just wishful thinking on the part of the last general. Yu Zi sighed slightly.
"So much?" Helian Chengxian asked in surprise.
"It's just a lot more, Jingyang Prefecture goes south, the islands don't know how many, even if it's a big thief across the sea, I don't know where the end is, it is rumored to be the land of immortals.
Putting these aside for the time being, there are 73 larger islands and countless smaller islands across the sea from Dongfu.
Among them, three are the most vast, one island will not be smaller than Cang'er Prefecture, the East China Sea forces take these three islands as the center, Huadou is one of them, and the remaining two islands, one is Xixing, and the other is called Fucong, each of which governs a small number of smaller islands.
Most of the other islands are self-reliant, and unlike Dagan, the Western Regions, and Northern Xinjiang, the islands on the sea are far apart, and the nearest ones are hundreds of miles away, and it is difficult for a country to control the islands like Dagan.
Even the islands under the jurisdiction of these three larger island nations are mostly self-governing and nominally included in a single country, but in fact they are just paying taxes and seeking refuge, and further afield, they are beyond the reach of the whip.
It is because of this that although the islands of the sea are rarely formed, but there are all kinds of covenants, and the last general will not be able to sort them out, most of these islands are allied by far and near, one island is in trouble, and the rest of the islands will raise troops to help, and the people on the islands still swear an oath, and they are still above Dagan. ”
"So, overseas can be called a forest of princes?" Shi Wei asked solemnly.
"Even so, except for the three kingdoms mentioned by General Fang Cai, the rest of the islands have ten alliances, which means that there are thirteen princes."
"Isn't this an endless battle?" Helian Chengxian sighed.
"No, the sea seems to be chaotic, but there is one place that the last general can't understand."
"I want to hear about it." Helian Chengxian asked hurriedly.
Yu Zi smiled slightly, and said: "Da Gan established the country and took charge of the Five Mansions, what does General Helian think it is by?" ”
"This is naturally based on military strength and legislation."
"What General Helian said is that all the states of Dagan must act according to the rules established by the imperial court, and the same is true at sea.
However, the rules of the sea are not set by one country or one alliance, but are self-contained general rules, and people overseas must act in accordance with them.
It's just that even the islanders don't know where these rules came from, and it seems that these rules have been in place since the islands were created.
If someone does not follow the rules and does not ask for reasons, the rest of the islands will raise troops to attack them, and the national strength will be wiped out, and the country will be wiped out, even if the power is far superior to others, they will not dare to violate these rules. ”
Everyone in the tent looked at each other, and for a moment they couldn't understand why this was the case.
Li Luo continued in a deep voice: "In this way, the overseas islands are all acting with these rules first, and military strength secondary? ”
"Exactly, the maritime merchants of the Eastern Mansion and the maritime merchants of the Southern Mansion must abide by these rules, if there is the slightest blasphemy, death or life, these are not secret things, and the merchants who have been adrift on the sea for a long time know it."
Li Luo nodded and said, "I have also heard about it, I don't know what about the three islands and ten alliances in the East China Sea?" ”
"The last general is also hearsay, and he has never been to the East China Sea Island in person."
Li Luo sighed, glanced at Yu Zi, and Yu Zi coughed slightly.
continued: "Let's talk about the three islands first, the most powerful military among Huadou, Xixing, and Fucong is not the Huadou who committed the border this time, but Xixing, who is in charge of the 17 islands in the East China Sea.
Huadou is the second, ruling eleven islands, Fucong is the last, there are only seven islands, and the rest of the islands are surrounded by these three islands, but they are all further east.
Among the islands in the East China Sea, it should be Xixing in the middle, Huadou is the closest to Dongfu, and Fucong is the farthest.
These three islands behaved differently, the people of Huadou were fierce, they liked to kill and rob, and they were notorious in the East China Sea, and the maritime merchants were the most reluctant to deal with Huadou, but they occupied the terrain and had considerable financial resources.
Xixing has to be gentle and fair, if the sky is beautiful, the maritime merchants of Dagan are willing to go to Xixing.
Fucong is quite mysterious among the islands, and rarely has contacts with the southeast and southeast of Dagan, I am afraid that in addition to the people on the island, most of the others do not know the depth. ”
"If the people of Huadou are all tigers, wolves, jackals and leopards, then wouldn't my Dagan's business trip be robbed and killed by them if they can't reach Xixing?"
Yu Zi smiled slightly: "General Helian has never been to the sea, there are rules on the sea, if the maritime merchant says where to go, he can collect some money, but he must not hurt people's lives."
And the money and goods cannot be taken more than half, if the wreckless behavior, even if the maritime merchants do not say anything, Xi Xun will have to seek justice for these maritime merchants. ”
The generals were surprised, it turned out that there was such a rule, which was indeed unheard of.
"What if the Hood is wiped out and no trace is left?" Shi Wei asked with a frown.
Yu Zi smiled slightly: "This kind of thing is already a taboo, unless there is an impermeable wall in the world."
Otherwise, no matter how big or small the maritime merchant is, even if there is only one merchant ship, once the news spreads, it will inevitably cause public anger.
If Xixing ignores it, I am afraid that the islands under its jurisdiction will fall apart, and the islands under Huadou are not necessarily all tigers and wolves, and there are also kind and loyal people. (To be continued.) )
