Chapter 385: How to Fight?

Li Ke raised his neck and drank all the wine in the cup, and the generals also drank the first glass of wine with their necks up, and said nothing, everything was in the wine.

Next, Li Ke led the generals to eat meat and drink wine, and dispersed happily.

In the Tang Dynasty, the city of Guangzhou was in the area of today's Panyu, the broad Pearl River flowed through the north of the city of Guangzhou, and then turned around in the northeast of the city of Guangzhou, and half enclosed the city of Guangzhou.

The Pearl River flows more than 30 miles southeast after passing through the city of Guangzhou, and then enters Guangzhou Bay, the west of Guangzhou Bay is Zhongshan, now Zhongshan City, and the east of Guangzhou Bay is Bao'an, and now it is Bao'an District, Shenzhen.

The Ministry of Bao'an was set up as Bao'an County in the late Tang Dynasty, until the reform and opening up of New China to establish the Shenzhen Special Economic Zone, and Bao'an County was changed to Bao'an District of Shenzhen.

When Li Ke's fleet came, these two departments were still just two small fishing villages, and the Bao'an department near the South China Sea was relatively large, and there was a market on the seaside, where people who went to the South China Sea to fish could exchange some things they needed when they returned.

Li Ke ordered the fleet to anchor near Bao'an and stop the fleet off the coast of Bao'an, and ordered his deputy general Zhang Shujin to take out some goods to exchange here.

Find a local person to lead the way to Guangzhou by land to send a letter to Feng An, and at the same time personally sail north along Guangzhou Bay with six large ships and five thousand iron horsemen, and personally go to Guangzhou to collect grain.

------------------------

The Feng brothers made preparations in advance, and as soon as Datang's fleet stopped at Guangzhou Bay, someone hurried back to report the news.

At this time, Feng Zhiyu was hiding on Guanlong Island at the mouth of the Pearl River with the chiefs of the five major tribes in Lingnan.

Guanlong Island is only more than 20 miles away from the city of Guangzhou, just the mouth of the Pearl River, although it is late autumn now, but the Pearl River is still very turbulent, the ship from the relatively calm Guangzhou Bay into the turbulent river road retrograde, will inevitably make the helmsman encounter great difficulties.

So Feng Zhiyu prepared to ambush the Tang fleet here.

On the lush Guanlong Island, under the shade of mountains and rocks and trees, there are shacks built with local materials, and there are more than 30,000 young and strong people in the shacks, including Jiling, Bin'an, Nanshan, Longyuan and Geliang.

A sunny hillside is overgrown with lychee trees, and the dense branches of the lychee trees block the sunlight on the hillside, so the soil and rocks on the hillside look wet all year round.

Behind a large stone under the lychee tree was several thick sheepskins, Feng Zhiyu and a few brute leader elders with broken hair and tattoos sat on the sheepskins, drinking while waiting for Li Ke's boat to arrive.

As everyone was talking, a barefoot man led a black, thin, and thin young man to come up, bypassing the boulder and kneeling down in front of Feng Zhiyu.

Feng Zhiyu saw that the barefoot man's face tightened, and he hurriedly asked, "Ah Fang, but there is news before?"

The barefoot man is Feng Zhiyu's confidant, staying by the river and waiting for news ahead.

Everyone else looked at the barefoot man and the black, skinny young man.

When the barefoot man asked, he raised his hand and pointed to the young man next to him and said, "Back to the fourth son, Ah Shui, who was sent to Bao'anji, is back." ”

"Ah Shui?" Feng Zhiyu looked at Ah Shui and asked, "What did you see on the Bao'an Collection?" ”

"Back to the fourth son, the villain saw a lot of Tang troops on the Bao'an set, and then ran to the beach and saw many, many big ships, and there were many, many Tang troops on the big boats, and many Tang troops got off the boats ......."

"What else?"

Feng Zhiyu listened to Ah Shui's repeated words about Boat Da and Tang Junduo, and he was impatient and interrupted him angrily.

"Ahh Ah Shui was taken aback, and hurriedly continued: "Back to the fourth son, when the villain saw the Tang army coming, he first took a small boat to report the news......

When Feng Zhiyu heard this, Huo Ran got up, looked at Ah Shui with a blue face, and said, "You found out about these things and came back?"

"I, I, I ......"

Ah Shui was so frightened that he didn't dare to speak.

Feng Zhiyu disdained to ignore Ah Shui again, and directly turned his head and looked at Ah Fang coldly.

"Fourth son, he is just the first to report that there are people behind him, he will definitely be able to figure out the situation of the Tang Army and report it again."

"Humph!"

Feng Zhiyu flicked his sleeves when he heard this, and then ignored him.

Ah Fang got up cautiously, but when he was about to leave, he saw that Ah Shui was still kneeling there and did not move, so he carefully kicked him with his foot to make him get up and leave.

"Back to the fourth prince, when the villain came back, he saw several big ships of the Tang Army coming here on the water......"

Before Feng Zhiyu could react, he heard Long Gubiao, the chief of Longyuan, ask, "Have you seen clearly that it is the big ship of the Tang Army?"

Several other people also stepped forward when they heard this, and looked at Ah Shui nervously, they had been hearing that the Tang Dynasty ship was very big, a lot, and there were many Tang troops, and they were all a little stressed in their hearts.

"The villain can see clearly, it is definitely the big ship of the Tang Army, except for the big ship of the Tang Army, the villain has never seen such a big ship......"

"Why are there only a few big ships? Where are the other ships?" Chief Gora asked, confused.

"Now it's time to figure out, who's on this boat? Can we grab it?" Chief Longyuan turned back to the crowd.

When the other three chiefs heard this, they all looked at Feng Zhiyu, and the so-called criterion for whether they could grab it was whether Feng Zhidai was on the ship or not.

Feng Zhiyu looked at a few people and knew what they were thinking, and said with an indifferent smile: "Since we have sent them to the door, of course we have to laugh at them, first rob these two Tang boats, and then lead the troops to Bao'an to wipe out the remaining ships." ”

Jiling, Bin Xun and Nanshan hurriedly said: "Everything depends on the fourth son." ”

"We will also follow the orders of the fourth prince." The two chiefs, Longyuan and Geliang, also expressed their position.

"Hahahaha......"

Feng Zhiyu laughed when he saw that everything was under control, and looked at several fangren chieftains with a slight cold face: "Do you know that the things in these two boats should be rewarded by the Tang Dynasty to our Feng family." ”

The chief of the Jiling Department was a half-hundred-year-old man, and he took a few steps forward and said with a smile: "What the fourth prince said is very true, and after we got these two boats, we will naturally not move at all, and we will return them to the fourth prince when the matter is over." ”

When the others saw this, they were all happy, and they hurriedly guaranteed the tickets: "These two goods should naturally belong to the fourth son." ”

Seeing this, Feng Zhiyu became more and more complacent, and laughed and said: "Don't worry, you can wait for the robbery of these ships, and Datang still needs me to quell the rebellion, and I will send weapons and rewards at that time." ”

"Hahaha, Datang actually wants to collect grain from Lingnan, and this time let them know how good we are."

"Don't even think about taking a grain of rice!"

"If we get the big ships and ordnance of the Tang Dynasty, we will use these big ships and ordnance to go around Annan."

Everyone laughed when they heard this, as if they had already obtained Datang's fleet.

……

……

The waves were rolling in Guangzhou Bay, and Li Ke stood on the boat and used a monocular to look at the green mountains and rocks on both sides of the strait.

I sighed in my heart, according to the time, Chang'an City is about to enter winter, but it is still warm as spring, which makes people feel a little incredible.

Li Ke was watching Feng Zhidai, who was dressed in armor, slowly walk out of the cabin, first looking into the distance, and then came behind Li Ke and bowed.

"See His Royal Highness King Wu."

Li Ke turned around and handed the telescope to Yu Biao, the chamberlain, stretched out his hand to help Feng Zhidai and said with a smile: "The general doesn't have to be polite. ”

Feng Zhidai straightened up and looked ahead, and said in a somewhat excited voice: "I have arrived at the mouth of the Pearl River, and I will be in Guangzhou City in another twenty or thirty miles!" ”

"How many years has General Feng not returned?" Li Ke asked when he heard this.

Feng Zhidai showed an emotional look on his face when he heard this, looked into the distance and took a deep breath.

After a while, he said leisurely: "When he was twelve years old, he accompanied his father to the east to Goguryeo, and then his father came back and stayed in Yangzhou to protect Emperor Yang of Sui.

In Yangzhou for more than a year, Emperor Yang of Sui was killed, Yangzhou was in chaos, and the ministers were in Yangzhou in a precarious situation, so they had to lead 200 families to flee thousands of miles back to Guangzhou.

After living here for a few years, he went north to Chang'an to serve His Majesty, and more than ten years have passed in a blink of an eye, and the ministers have passed the year of not being confused......"

Feng Zhidai's voice gradually lowered as he spoke.

Li Ke also had mixed feelings in his heart when he listened, and he didn't know when he would be able to return to Chang'an.

It's just that as soon as I saw the surging river, mixed with the sea, and turned into a magnificent tide, my chest suddenly became proud, and I said loudly to the turbulent Pearl River estuary: "A good man is born between heaven and earth, he should crisscross the seas, and he doesn't have to feel so much." ”

When Feng Zhidai heard this, Li Ke saluted again: "The prince has a broad mind, not to mention that his father has not been in good health in the past two years, and his younger brothers have not been able to ......."

Hearing this, Li Ke turned around and helped Feng Zhidai and said: "General Feng doesn't have to worry, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will explain when he comes, and let the general stay in Guangzhou to govern, because he is worried that the general will be away for many years, and the people in Guangzhou will not be able to use it, and he specially ordered some children of the family to stay and help you!" ”

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has such an order?" Feng Zhidai excitedly grabbed Li Ke's hand and asked.

Feng Zhidai had been in Chang'an for many years, and knew that Li Shimin and the imperial court had long made up their minds to send people to take over Guangzhou as soon as Feng Ang died, and would never allow the Feng family to sit in Guangzhou for generations.

Therefore, they all knew that Feng Ang was old and sick, but he never let Feng Zhidai come back to replace him.

Seeing this, Li Ke smiled and said: "Don't worry, this is really His Royal Highness the Prince's order, you must know that there are these big ships in His Royal Highness the Prince, and he is not afraid of getting out of control in Guangzhou." ”

Feng Zhidai was stunned at first when he heard this, and then understood that Li Chengqian had great ambitions, and wanted to establish a feudal state at sea and send warships to collect taxes everywhere, how could he look at the small city of Guangzhou?

Thinking of this, I can only be ashamed.

In fact, Li Ke and Feng Zhidai didn't know, Li Chengqian knew that Feng Ang didn't have a few days to live, and Feng Zhidai couldn't live for a few years, and now let Feng Zhidai govern Guangzhou, and his colleagues sent the children of the family to assist him, just for the convenience of subsequent immigration to Guangdong.

As soon as Feng Ang died, the Feng family was defeated in Guangzhou, and the Han officials sent by the imperial court could not effectively govern Lingnan, resulting in an unfavorable situation in which Lingnan was actually handed over to the local barbarian chieftain to govern.

Feng Zhidai was in a good mood when he learned of Li Chengqian's order, and stood at the bow of the ship and constantly introduced the scenery on both sides of the strait to Li Ke.

Li Ke listened to Feng Zhidai's introduction and looked around with a telescope.

"In front of the prince is Guanlong Island at the mouth of the Pearl River, and after Guanlong Island, you will enter the Pearl River."

"Guanlong Island?"

Hearing this, Li Ke hurriedly held a telescope and looked at Guanlong Island.

……

Feng Zhiyu and the others on Guanlong Island also saw Li Ke's big boat, looking at the two big boats thirty or forty zhang long and fifteen or sixteen zhang wide, the people on the island opened their mouths in shock and couldn't speak.

"This! How can this be fought?"
