As soon as this incident was completed, Ma Yuan, Feng Mi and other staff members who served in the water division were all greatly encouraged.

"Since the Han Dynasty, there has never been a bloody sword, and the merit of building a hundred generations of generations!"

Ma Yuan sent away the king of Champong, and when he met Feng Mi at the dock, he couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart, and whispered to him: "You and I are going to go to the history books!" ”

Feng Mi was full of wonder, and after negotiating the matter of the mutual market, he immediately came to look for Ma Yuan and asked him what was going on. Just as Feng Mi was drinking himself, a notebook was spread out on the desk, and the ink marks were particularly fresh. Ma Yuan said that this matter will be in the history books in the future, no matter how the historian writes, it would be a pity if there is no evidence from people who have experienced it, so he wrote like a spring, and after sending it back to the cabin, he took notes on the return of Wang Shi to occupy the city.

During the Xining period, Song Guofa's army of more than 100,000 troops conquered Annan, but the loss of troops only ended hastily without getting an inch of land.

The city was still south of Annam, and the South China Sea Navy Division had obtained the right to open ports, build forts, and garrison troops to protect the merchants. Even Feng Mi, the person who handled it, didn't expect that this matter would be done lightly. Ma Yuan was also greatly moved when he heard this, the sailors on the ship were simply and those who envied the Champa detachment that could dock at the port and no longer have to risk sailing away to eat, and the civilian officials and staff could better understand the great influence of the garrison in Champa.

The expansion of territory on the sea, isolated port castles, in fact, laid a large net covering the entire southwest sea.

Although there were not many soldiers and horses stationed in each place, they were backed by the sea and could get backup from the sea at any time, and the local princes did not dare to act rashly. This step-by-step method can spread the power of the sailor in the entire rare sea area in a very short period of time.

Zhao Xingde made the port cloth "Da Fei", called the sailor fleet "Bird Flock", and privately called these ports Bird's Nest.

When Ma Yuan, Feng Mi and other aides first learned about this plan, almost no one thought it was feasible. Some people even privately speculated that Zhao Xingde was under the pressure of Xia Guo's rapid advance, and he was worried that the lone army would go deeper, so he had to make this almost impossible plan to ensure the back of the sailor. The ease with which clinker could get its first stronghold in Champa was a great deal of joy.

This is just the first step to encompass this 10,000-mile sea frontier, and I am excited to think about it in the future.

"On this grand event, it should be a big white!" The two of them were excited, and they couldn't help but push the cup and change the lamp.

Coming and going, from excitement to slightly drunk, followed by drunkenness, still speaking drunk words loudly.

“...... Hunting in autumn and winter, reading in spring and summer, after the death of the figure, the tomb road is inscribed "the tomb of Cao Hou, the general of the Han Dynasty and the west", and his life wish is ......"

Feng Mi's back was facing the sky, holding a wine glass in one hand and patting the case with the other, his voice seemed to be intermittent, with a sense of pathos and fierceness.

Before he could finish speaking, he had already fallen headlong on the desk, and fell asleep at his desk.

"Brother Feng, Brother Feng?!" Ma Yuan chanted an ancient poem, didn't hear the applause, looked down and looked again, this person had dreamed of Zhou Gong.

"Sitting at home, drunk and dreaming of death?! Wine and wealth, all twilight, twilight! ”

"Listen, the man is going to die on the frontier and be buried with a horse leather shroud!"

Ma Yuan couldn't help but be a little dissatisfied, and sang loudly: "How can you be evil in bed in the hands of your daughter?!" He raised his eyes and looked around, and actually had a feeling of independence from the world, and after being full of pride, the wine surged, only to feel that the world was spinning, and he fell down and got drunk.

............

"At the beginning, 3,000 people guarded the Nanshan Fort in the lonely city, and 100,000 Liao thieves could not break through, and 1,000 defenders of Zhanchenggang were enough."

In the White Tiger Hall, Liu Zhijian unfolded the topographic map, and compared the pattern of the corner fort to be built one by one, and reported it in a deep voice.

"There were some errors in the original map, but after the on-site survey in the past two days, the errors have been preliminarily corrected, and they do not affect the construction of the corner fort. About half a year later, the castle will have the strength to defend itself. The food stored in the city is enough for 10,000 people to last half a year. ”

After the fleet arrived in Zhancheng, Feng Mi and other Kwantung civil officials "negotiated" with the small court of Zhancheng about the stationing of the detachment, while Liu Zhijian, Gao Su and other generals who were familiar with defending the city were responsible for the selection and construction of the military city and port. Zhan Castle is a corner fort built in the style of Nanshan Castle, although the defenders are only 1,000 people, but more than 30 iron barrel cannons are placed. Zhao Xingde built the city at a location selected according to the map brought back by the Jinguan Mansion, and the construction pattern was designed as early as Yangzhou. The Jinguan Mansion is so meticulous that even Liu Zhijian is secretly frightened, and the secret road to Kanto is not unmanned. According to the field survey and correction again, the construction pattern can be used with slight modifications.

"Although the defenders are only 1,500 people," Zhao Xingde muttered, "counting the family members and the fleeing people, there is not much food for 10,000 people." ”

"The waterways here are open, and if you don't have food or water for too long, you can evacuate temporarily."

Si Nan and Shi Heng, a university scholar, pointed to the charts off the port and explained.

The newly built Champa Castle is not a short distance away from the Champa Royal Castle, which is backed by the inland and faces the sea, taking advantage of the water and land, while the Champan Castle is similar to the Nanshan Castle built on a rocky hill deep into the ocean and surrounded by water on three sides. Although there is no spring water on the stone mountain, the rain is extremely abundant in the city all year round, as long as the water storage tank is dug well, there is no risk of water shortage, if it is easy to defend and difficult to attack, it is still on the Nanshan City. Although this land route was easily blocked by the occupation army, as far as the military city itself was concerned, it was surrounded by the sea on three sides, which was easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the back road was also unimpeded. With the strength of the detachment fleet, the foreign enemy completely blocked the Song convoy from the sea.

"Good." Zhao Xingde smiled and nodded, "In the past few days, the three of you have worked hard. ”

At the time of Yangzhou and Guangzhou, the shogunate of the South China Sea Navy was preparing to build garrisons in various important places in the southwest sea.

Even so, the fact that the three of them were able to complete the construction of the castle and the affairs of the armies in just two days when the sailors stayed in the city was indeed an amazing achievement. Shi Heng's hydrological attainments are extremely high, Liu Zhijian and Gao Su are both subordinates who have followed Zhao Xingde for many years, and they are really easy to use. Because of the survey and construction of the city, the three of them have not even entered the royal city since the sailor anchored and occupied the city. However, if it weren't for the three of them, if anyone else would do it, Zhao Xingde would not be so relieved.

"Scholar Shi, what do you think of this part of the Southwest Sea? Is it still a place where people live and work in peace and contentment? ”

Zhao Xingde's question, Liu Zhijian and Gao Su's eyes both looked at Shi Heng, although he was the head of the Sailor's Sinan, he also had the status of a university scholar, so he was regarded as a guest secretary of the Southwest Navy Division. Everyone in the Xia Kingdom is literate, and the respect for teachers is not inferior to that of Kanto, and the bachelor's mansion is in charge of the education of the world. Therefore, Zhao Xingde looked at Shi Heng differently, and Liu Zhijian, Gao Su and other officers also took it for granted. This time, Shi Heng followed the South China Sea Sailor on the expedition, and at the same time shouldered the task of watching the sky and collecting products from all over the country in the Southwest Sea. After the voyage was completed, Shi Heng was likely to return to the Chang'an Bachelor's Mansion. Therefore, Zhao Xingde also treated Shi Heng with a politeness, if it was not a formal occasion for the military conference, he would be called "Shi Daxue".

"Why is it not a place to live in peace, the rice is ripe three or four times a year, and the barbarians are scattered and weakened, it is simply a godsend."

"If you don't take it, you will be blamed for it."

Shi Heng wandered on the sea all the year round, and he was a sergeant who was not inferior to Mobei, and he spent his life surveying sea routes and finding new land. Zhao Xingde asked him about this matter, and he naturally didn't twist and pinch, and said bluntly: "The general has inherited the important task of opening up the southwest sea frontier, and he should have already achieved success." The king of Champa promised us to build a city and garrison troops here, but it was not a moment of confusion, let alone a fluke. However, it was a fluke that the combined forces of Shu and Dali were able to destroy Annan in a quick battle. If it weren't for the fact that the Annan Imperial Court relied on itself to dominate one side, it actually raised a decisive battle with the Shu army, so that it was a complete defeat, and the war in Annan would not know how long it would be delayed. Therefore, the city is thousands of miles away from Shu or the nearest city of the Song Kingdom, if you send troops from the land to conscript, not to mention the victory or defeat, the cost of a single grain and grass transfer, the king of Annan only has a procrastination trick, and can drag Dali and Shu to make peace. ”

"The words of the scholar are good." Liu Zhijian nodded.

Because of this, the king of Annam and the king of Champa have always been dissatisfied with the kingdom of the Central Plains, and they will come to worship if they give benefits, and if they don't give benefits, they may have to send troops to invade. Why is the king of Champa so easy to talk this time? To put it bluntly, it's just a change of hosts and guests. The grain and grass carried by a large sea ship are enough to supply hundreds of people for half a year, and ninety percent of the grain and grass are saved without the cost of cattle and horses. If the king of Zhancheng disobeys the general's will, the sailor warship can come today, and he can also come tomorrow, he occupies the city by the sea, only day and night defense, only the loss of the share, but there is no enough to match the sailor, knowing that we aim to cover the entire southwest sea, this net will inevitably be tightened in the future, but the fish in the net can only jump a few times. ”

Shi Heng wanted to persuade the Protectorate to contribute money and efforts to the survey of the sea frontier, so he was naturally prepared, and he had heard and witnessed it in the Southwest Sea Division, and he usually discussed military strategy with the officers of the Navy Division from time to time, which was even more straightforward. After he finished speaking, Gao Su and Liu Zhijian both agreed.

"A scholar is a scholar," Liu Zhijian said with a smile, "I don't know, I think you're a marching horse!" ”

"Scholar Shi," Gao Su also smiled, "just come to our Southwest Sea Division." ”

Shi Heng's personality is straightforward, and after listening to the praise of the two, he didn't say anything casually, but lowered his head and laughed.

"Exactly." Zhao Xingde also smiled and agreed. He looked at Gao Su and Liu Zhijian, and said casually: "You also think about it, since the Southwest Sea is a place to live and work in peace and contentment, it is better to simply take over your family members, there are thousands of miles of sea territory, and there are countless islands, and you are needed to take root to spread the branches. ”
