On the second day, it was bright, and Yu Zhilong finally woke up drunk on the Hu bed. Yesterday he was happy for a while, drank a few more glasses, and couldn't help feeling dizzy, while he was still somewhat awake, and then asked Kong Yingdai to drink more with the local merchants and gentry under his seat, and then retreated into the back room to rest under the careful support of several beautiful maids.

In the past few days, Yu Zhilong has been busy with military layout, and then deployed military and political affairs, although he has not experienced the fighting, but he is mentally quite tired. After successfully getting to the city, I finally relaxed and took a big nap.

After Yu Zhilong washed and ate, Lao Jing came in and told him about all the affairs of last night and this morning, and asked for instructions.

Since the defeat of the Yuan army, the city and outside the city are basically calm, most of the captives have been screened, those who refuse to surrender or are full of evil deeds have been enforced by the law, and the original pseudo-Yuan cool officials in the city have also been detained. As for the registration and inspection of military merits, the measurement of acres of land, and the approval of land grades, Meng Chang will carry out them one by one today.

A few days ago, a military report came from Linqu that Ji Xiancheng planned to cross the river with a large army, completely defeated the Hedong Yuan army, and prepared to attack Weizhou. Although Yu Zhilong agreed to this plan, he was a little worried. After all, Yidu City is a big city in the center of Shandong, where the Yuan army's heavy corps gathered, Ye Xian, Meng Qing, Gu Kai, Jiang Bin, Yu Bo, etc. are all brave and resourceful people, and they will never let the Jing'an army take Weizhou lightly; Besides, although the Yidu Yuan army was badly injured, the roots are still there, so it is better to be careful.

Ming Shijie reported that the regular Yuan army in Yidu City was worth more than 10,000 people, and the remaining nearly 20,000 were local rebels, with uneven combat strength and low morale. Although we have made great efforts to rectify the situation, we have limited improvement in the short term. It's just that there are a few enemy troops that are not low in strength, such as Jia Daozhen's division of the Yuan army, Meng Qing's division of the righteous army, etc.

In order to smoothly ensure Ji Xiancheng's attack, Zhao Shi quickly led Pan Biao to lead the army back to Linqu again after stabilizing Juxian, this time Pan Biao's men and horses were full of 5,000 people! Enough to garrison the city.

It was with this unexpected reinforcement that Ji Xiancheng and Mingxiong's confidence increased greatly, and it was originally a plan to attack the enemy to get food, but under the repeated planning of the two, they also set a supplementary plan to encircle Wei and save Zhao.

That is, once the action of crossing the river to get grain was discovered by Yidu, he simply set up an ambush halfway to encircle and annihilate the Yuan army that reinforced Weizhou. At the same time, Linqu County deliberately showed the enemy weakness and lured the enemy to attack, but in fact, Pan Biao's troops had already been in full battle, and when the time came, it would inevitably give the Yuan army a big surprise.

The two of them were also extremely eager to take revenge on Linqu first, and once they found that Linqu's defense was weak, they would never let go of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Even in order to appease the anger of the slaves against the continuous ineffectiveness of the Yidu Yuan army, and give yourself an advanced step, the most likely is to take the opportunity to seize the city.

Ji Xiancheng also praised Pang Biao in his letter to Yu Zhilong, not weak Huang Er, Wu Side, Mingxiong and others. If you build it carefully, you can be a fierce general in the army. After Yu Zhilong read it, he couldn't help but laugh when he remembered that this person had thick eyebrows and big eyes, broad shoulders and a round waist, and gave himself a few colors when they met for the first time.

Although Yu Zhilong was surprised by Ji Xiancheng's plan change, he was greatly moved, and if it could really succeed, it would inevitably reverse the current weak situation of the Jing'an Army on Yidu Road.

Yu Zhilong convened his subordinates to discuss the advantages and disadvantages of this new idea, and although everyone received mixed reviews, they were mostly encouraged by this idea. Now that the sunshine has been obtained, the Jing'an army has another place to stand, and has captured a lot; Moreover, this eastward journey, the new queen has more than 10,000 soldiers, the soldiers are powerful, and the generals are full of confidence, and they are all looking forward to making new contributions!

The tens of thousands of troops in Yidu City have gradually become like pheasants and dogs in the eyes of the generals at this time, and when they will be served depends on everyone's mood. Although Yu Zhilong smiled and emphasized that there are still a lot of hard stubble in the Yuan army that can fight, but under the big victory, most of the generals disagreed, and only Kong Ying was worried among several scribes, but Meng Chang and Jin Yandao: They were also defeated repeatedly, the morale of the army was sluggish, and there was no reason to face it head-on, if he could take advantage of it, he would not let it go easily!

Although everyone is optimistic about Ji Xiancheng's idea, Yu Zhilong still made preparations in advance.

Before the siege of Rizhao, he ordered a partial general to lead an army to die down and silently march westward, originally with the goal of reinforcing Linqu, but now he simply ordered it to change his route, and hurriedly ran to Weizhou, responding to Ji Xiancheng, showing a trend of east-west attack.

Yu Zhilong made up his mind, immediately wrote a letter, he blew dry the paper and ink, and after carefully examining the content again, he personally put it into the cover, handed it over to the military secretary office to print the fire paint, and immediately sent it to Linqu as soon as possible.

This time, Linqu came with the military envoy, as well as a letter from Xie Lin.

Yu Zhilong took a look, but Xie Lin thought that the Jing'an Army had already occupied several counties and had hundreds of thousands of people, and it was no longer appropriate for Yu Zhilong to use the title of General Fei, after all, since Zhao Shi and below, Ji Xiancheng, Wan Jinhai, Xia Houen and other generals are numerous, if they get military merits again, it is difficult to have the name of promotion in the title, and in the long run, I am afraid that they will lose the enterprising heart of the generals, so please Yu Zhilong to establish the title of marshal!

Be handsome, not king!

Yu Zhilong's heart moved, and looking down, Xie Lin pointed out that at this time, Jing'an's military strength was not caught, and the so-called Muxiu would be destroyed by Lin Feng; Zhang Shicheng's precedent is still alive, and Yu Zhilong should not commit it again.

At this time, Xie Lin specially came to persuade him, afraid that he had his own careful thoughts.

Yu Zhilong put down the letter and thought slightly. Since ancient times, those who have persuaded progress, once successful, will naturally have the merit of following the dragon. High-ranking officials are generous, and the family has been blessed for several generations, needless to say. Since Xie Lin is bent on attaching himself to himself, he naturally hopes that Yu Zhilong will rise to the top, and he will rise to the top, but he still vaguely advises Yu Zhilong to forget Zhang Shicheng's precedent.

To say that the measurement of this Yuan court is also quite large. Zhang Shicheng, such a big rebellion, the Yuan Court can't be strangled, and there is no intention to completely exterminate him, as long as you are willing to submit, you can be given a name for the time being. Zhang Shicheng can actually retain the benefits of listening to the tune and not listening to the announcement.

But once you claim to be the king and hegemon, that is, to announce to the world that you will not be compatible with the Yuan court's signboard, even the most stupid court will not tolerate it! Zhang Shicheng couldn't accept it when he saw it, so he naturally found the destruction of the soldiers who got rid of the country.

After Yu Zhilong relieved himself of the difficulty of Linqu, several soldiers and horses came out together, and now he has several counties in the east and south. If there is no accident, Jiaozhou, Banyang Road and other Yuan court jurisdictions are very likely to occupy within a few months. At that time, the Jing'an army will have a vast land spanning hundreds of miles and millions of people, and once the secession is successful, it will definitely have the tendency to become dominant.

Those who have lived in officialdom for a long time and have not fallen are either perverts or human spirits.

It is even more rare to be able to have such a sober understanding when the storm meets!

At the end of the letter, Xie Lin said: Linqu and other places are suffering from a shortage of salt, and the Jing'an army has sunshine, so it is best to continue to maintain the operation of the salt works and completely control the military in order to extract military funds. Including iron-making, tool-making, mining, etc., they should immediately imitate the previous dynasty and quickly prepare for the establishment of exclusive yamen special management.

Yu Zhilong praised the festival, Chengxing picked up a wolf on the case, drafted a military order, promoted Zhao Shi and Ji Xiancheng as commanders, and Wan Jinhai and Xia Houen as deputy commanders.

Just as it was about to be sent, I felt that it was not the best moment, and I would talk about it after the war on this side was settled.

However, the Linqu war was important, and Yu Zhilong still wrote another letter, ordering the military envoy to reply to Ji Xiancheng and tell him to be careful if he did great things!

As soon as the military envoy went out, his subordinates stationed in the port reported that several large ships suddenly appeared outside the port, patrolling and not being able to see the type of ordinary civilian and commercial ships. Because he didn't know the other party's intentions, his subordinates hurriedly ordered the headquarters to block the dock.

"Prepare your horses, go to the port!" Yu Zhilong was shocked in his heart, and immediately commanded through the armor. Outside the house, Lao Jing loudly agreed, and ordered the guards to prepare to accompany him.

At this time, on the coast of the East China Sea, the waves are choppy. Huge waves poured in from the sky, slapping viciously against the craggy reefs on the shore, splashing countless white flowers. The snow-white foam splashed and retreated to the rough sea, where it regrouped in the next wave.

The cold sea breeze came from the vast sky, and Yu Zhilong still felt a cold chill even though he was covered with a layer of cashmere in his fine iron armor.

A sturdy standard-bearer clasped the smooth flagpole with his forearm in both hands, leaned forward to resist the oncoming sea breeze, and followed closely behind Yu Zhilong.

When the horse came to the beach, Yu Zhilong raised his head and took a few deep breaths. The rich smell of the sea soaked into his heart and spleen, and made him refreshed. It was the first time in this life that he felt the smell and demeanor of the sea, and when he saw the vastness of the ocean, he inevitably felt an inexplicable excitement.

He still has some fragments of memories of the turbulent seas in his previous life, and in the face of this magnificent sea and sky, he can barely hold himself up, but most of the officers and soldiers of the Jing'an Army who have never seen this scene are all shocked and breathless.

The heavens and the earth are vast, and people are as small as ants!

"What a big lake!" One of the guards took a deep breath and couldn't help but sigh. caused everyone nearby to laugh: I have never seen the earthy buns in the world!

Yu Zhilong smiled slightly. If you don't climb the mountain, you don't know the distance of the sky, you don't know the sea, you don't know the depth of the water. This son is like a frog at the bottom of a well, when he first ascends the well platform and sees the vast world outside, anyone will be shocked inexplicably.

At this time, the sun rises in the east, the fiery red morning sun gradually turns incandescent, and the sea and sky are glowing with a bright red, flashing in the waves. The red morning glow is holding a round of red sun. Looking to the north, there are a few sails, and the building ship Weihe is a few big ships of unknown origin that Yu Shichang announced.

Yu Zhilong rode his horse onto a high stone by the sea, sat on the horse, and watched the magnificent and beautiful sunrise. After a long time, he looked around and sighed: "Gentlemen, when Emperor Wu of Wei was in the east of Jieshi to view the sea, he once made a heroic sentence, and today he saw the sea and sky, and the sun rose. This heaven and earth are so big that they are endless. Life is only a few decades, we should do heroic deeds and make immortal contributions; He points out the country every day and exalts the words, which can be described as a happy thing! ”

He remembered that he had fought in Linqu, Yishui, Rizhao and other places in the past year, and he didn't know how many times he had gone through life and death to get today's situation.

He said that he couldn't help but jump on his horse and whip his whip, and he sped down the reef and on the beach. Hundreds of elite horsemen followed. In the surging waves, Yu Zhilong's laughter and clear eight words came.

"The sun rises in the east, only I am undefeated!"

"Your Excellency, won't we go ashore and temper the blades of our warriors?" A tall, burly man deferentially inquired behind a leader.

"No need! This time, I'm just a passerby, and the benefits we deserve are already in hand, so there's no need to take advantage of others! The leader had been looking out over the bow railing, carefully observing the sudden appearance of the cavalry on the beach in the distance.

"But do you need to inform the other side when you go back like this?" The big man didn't seem to give up.

"Takeda-kun, the life of a samurai must be in his own hands. The Great Yuan Dynasty is already old, and his glorious era is coming to an end. Now that I've seen their reality and reality, there's no need to deal with these idiots too much! For the sake of the future of the Kamakura family, our immediate goal is still Goryeo, which is too far away from us. ”

Although there are not many cavalry troops, they have a fierce spirit that is not afraid of death, and the line report said that the Jing'an Army seems to have fought a lot of tough battles in the past six months, and the limelight is building, which should not be underestimated. If the battle hurts the precious life of the samurai, no amount of money can make up for the loss. Wouldn't it be better to let them eat the dog first, and then the fisherman will make a profit? ”

The leader looked back and saw that the big man was unwilling, and said with a smile: "This time, the fat sheep of Yidu Road are generous, but they won a wave of business trips for them, and they actually sent hundreds of thousands of dollars at one time!" As for the 1,000 pieces of silk that came with it, it was even more valuable. It's a worthwhile trip! ”

Dahan flattered: "It's all Your Excellency's clever plan, the surnamed Lin thought that he secretly changed the sea route to Wendeng, but the gods and ghosts didn't know, who knew that Your Excellency had already seen his trick to hide from the world!" ”

The leader said proudly: "The Dayuan people are deceitful at this time, like a plate of loose sand, and Goryeo is gradually sharing fire and water with him, this is a good time for us to make a name for ourselves and gain prestige overseas!" Takeda-kun, come on! ”

"Hayi, I will never disappoint your expectations!"

"Order, return!"

Yu Zhilong saw the big sea ship in the distance hoisting its sails and gradually moving away, and he was a little suspicious. The sails of those big ships were tall, the head and tail were sharp, the buildings on the ships were at least three or four floors, and there were some hanging windows on the sides of the hulls, which looked by no means good.
