Chapter 15 Lairen

The army first set off towards Muling Pass, and if there was no political agreement, then it would be a private war between Yingdu, Song, Lu, Zhao and Qin. Once Fangcheng is tightened, the divisions of Yingdu, Song, and Lu will immediately withdraw to Fangcheng, and the army of Zhao Wei under Sima Shang will also withdraw from Chu with the Chu army, and it is likely that the aid of Qi will be abandoned halfway.

As a military advisor, Mu Chong judged this, he did not know that Wei Yu had persuaded Zhao Zheng to agree to destroy Qi, but he knew that as the Chu army took Hanzhong, the Qin army's access to attack the Chu state became extremely limited. Occupying the State of Qi and attacking Chu from Muling Pass to the south is also a path. And the state of Chu, which has insufficient troops, will be exhausted on the thousands of miles long border, and even if it is defended by the pass, it will have to share the troops, making the already insufficient troops even weaker.

He was so sure that Tian Leave was no longer as perfunctory as it had been a few days ago, and he let the doctors of Yi make noise. He hurriedly waved at Mu Chong and said, "Please follow me to see the king." ”

A few years ago, the Chu army pulled out Linzi, the Qi State changed the law, the Yan Dynasty became the Zheng Dynasty, and the Qi King Tian Jian handed over most of the power, but he was still the king of the Qi State. The State of Qi is in danger, and he must ask Tian Jian to reverse the direction of the State of Qi.

In Linzi, the Minister of State Tian took the military advisor Mu Chong to meet Qi Wang Tianjian; Handan, Pingyuan Jun Zhao Ying summoned his cronies to the secret room to discuss the evacuation of Handan; Da Liang, seeing that Zhao Qi was married to the princess Yu King of Chu, Wei Zeng, the king of Wei, asked his youngest daughter if she was sleeping last time, so it was good to send a matchmaker to Chu to say goodbye; Yingdu, the queen mother spent 37,000 gold to buy the treasure of the Hu people has become known all over the city, and the road drum outside the road gate was broken by Wei Di, a former countryman from Gongxian County, with a group of people......

There was a lot of disturbance on the mainland, but the seas outside the continent were calm. After leaving Zhufang Harbor, the fleet led by Hongqi soon entered the Bohai Sea by riding the last southerly wind. After arriving at the top of the Bohai Sea along the warm current of Taiwan, the fleet turned its bow and relied on the push of the coastal current to meet the boat division led by Fu Wuzhu, Fu Shao, and Gong Shi at Zhongyi Port, and went directly south to Zhifu.

The state of Chu opened up to Zhuyue the construction of the Shao Si life, resulting in the shipbuilding technology of Zhuyue within a few years to advance by leaps and bounds, Huiji's Su Kai, Ou Yue's Su Shao, Minyue's Su Wuzhu, Luo Yue's Fu Shan, Nanwu's Gongshi, these seaside Baiyue states have built their own Shao Si life level sea boats, the ambitious ones are like Wu Zhu, and let the craftsmen enlarge the Shao Si life, creating a Shao Si life that is almost as big as the gluttonous class.

Six Chaos-class gunboats, one large, two small and three young masters, followed by a long series of large-wing warships, sailing mightily in the Bohai Sea. On the flagship Chaos, the boarding of the ship, Wu Zhu, Fu Shao, and Gongshi were looking at the latest gunboat under their feet.

The deck is neat, the bronze is shiny, and the boatmen and sailors are extraordinary, and their manners are measured. Even if Zhu Yue learned the most similar Huiji to Chu Guo, the Da Yue could not be compared with the Chaos in terms of appearance and regulations. As for the combat power, the thorn crossbow equipped by the young division is almost a child's toy compared to the twenty-four thirty-two-pound cannons on the Chaos. However, before the Chaos salvo, the power was only in everyone's imagination.

"With such a huge cannon, what kind of boat in the world can withstand this cannon?" On the artillery deck, Su Wuzhu looked at the thick cannon body of the cannon and not only gestured, but also shook his head again and again.

As the king of Minyue, of course, Wu Wuzhu had seen the test firing of artillery, and he also knew that the power of the cannon was directly related to the size of the cannon body, but he did not know the difference between the inner diameter and the outer diameter of the artillery. In fact, the caliber of the 32-pound cannon was only 31 millimeters more than that of the 15-kilogram gun, but the outer diameter was more than 100 millimeters more.

"The Chaos gunboats are not fighting against boats, but against cities." Red didn't elaborate on the power of the 32-pound cannon, he only mentioned the targets of the Chaos-class gunboats: ports and cities.

Thinking that the destination of the fleet was Zhifu Port in Qi Country, several people laughed. The two countries of Yue and Qi were mortal enemies before, but Qi is a big country in the Central Plains, and even if Yue is the strongest, it cannot annex Qi.

"Zhifu Port is easy to attack, but Natian is widowed...... Qi Zhiliang will also. "When going north to the mouth of the Yellow River in April, all the Yue war boats passed through Zhifu, and nothing else left an impression on everyone's hearts, but Tian Widow, the general of the Qi people's boat division, remembered deeply.

"There are only more than 100 ships in Zhifu Port, so what can I do?" Hong Mo had read the information about Zhifu, and the war boats of the Qi State were old-fashioned war boats, and although there were few war boats on his side, he should not be afraid of the widows.

"What if the fisherman doesn't want to go with me?" Gong Shisi asked, this is also a question.

"The fisherman's business is done by his confidant, and it has nothing to do with us." Hongqi said the order of the Great Sima Mansion, thinking of the grievances between Yue Qi, he explained uneasily: "Chu Qi is an ally after all, and the Qi people are not Qin people, just take the boat, and don't kill too much." ”

The Chu Yue Zhou division fought together, and the general of the naval battle was the red and not any of them. When he said this, the three of them nodded their heads and couldn't help but feel a little disappointed in their hearts - it seemed that they couldn't plunder in Zhifu Harbor.

The fleet was driven south by the coastal current to Zhifu, although it deliberately stayed away from the coast of Qi to avoid being discovered by the Qi people, but eight sea boats and more than 70 large-wing warships were still discovered by the Qi people near the mouth of Jishui Sea. Zhuyue's large-winged warboats were originally blocking the ferry along the Yellow River, but now they suddenly appeared on the coast of Qi, which immediately caused a wave of confusion among the Qi people. In Linzi, the Chu envoy Qu Guang, who had been lobbying all day long, was immediately summoned to the Zhengchao.

"Dare to ask the Chu envoy, what do you want to do when the war boat of Chu State goes south and south?" The courtiers were separated on both sides, leaving a passage in front of the palace gate, from which the refractive light came, facing Qi Xiangtian under the gaze of the Yi doctor.

"The state of Chu has no malicious intent." Refractive tract. "It's just that I want to lead more than 1,000 Chu fishing boats in Zhifu Port to leave the port."

"Rude!" Before Tian Xuan could speak, Tian Xuan jumped out. "The fishing boat is the thing of my Qi country, when did it become the fishing boat of the Chu country?"

"Exactly. The fishing boat is the thing of my Qi country...... "The purpose of the fishing boat leaving the port is very clear to everyone.

"Doctor Qu, does the Chu State want to forcibly seize the fishing boat of our Qi State...... "It is the big wing war boat that is heading south, and this is the posture of going to war.

"I have already said that the Chu people are no longer good, and if they take my fishing boat today, they will take my city one day......"

The courtiers in the court were greatly dissatisfied. After Tian He confessed frankly, the next day Tian Jian, the king of Qi of the dynasty, bluntly said that he was willing to send Zhou Ji to Handan to transport the Zhao people, but when the court decided, the Yi doctors who agreed to send Zhou Ji were still less than two-thirds. Matters involving Zhao are almost equivalent to starting a war against Qin, and the decision to start a war must meet two-thirds of the simple number, otherwise it will not be passed.

Tian Jian was also very helpless about this result, because the power of Qi was no longer in him, and in the Zhengchao, and now the Zhengchao Yi doctor was unwilling to send Zhou Ji to Handan to transport people, and he had nothing to do.
