"The Japanese kingdom sent 30,000 troops to land on Iki Island, the Silla kingdom has occupied Tsushima Island, Fujiwara Nakamaro is ordering all localities to order the kingdom of Ritsu and the big and small lords to send troops to assemble in Karatsu, and the warships of the Japanese kingdom can be seen cruising ...... 60 miles away from the Goho Islands."

Zhen Qian was in a bad mood, precisely because the Silla Kingdom and the Wa Kingdom were fighting at this time.

It is said that the Silla Kingdom and the Japanese Kingdom are pinched, and Zhen Qianle sees that he is right, but the place and time of the pinching between these two countries are wrong. Tsushima! And Iki Island! One is more than 200 miles away from the Wufeng Islands, and the other is less than 130 miles, such a short distance is not an exaggeration, isn't this a little ghost fighting and the people suffering?

Zhen Qian was silent, the Silla State obviously had a plan to send troops at this time, and the timing was too good, at the time of the civil strife in the Japanese, if no one reported the news, Zhen Qian would not believe it.

It was not the first day of war between Silla and Wa, and the target would not be Zhen Qian.

But if the two countries are red-eyed and hit the edge of the Wufeng Islands carelessly, what will Zhen Qian do? Run! Of course it can't be, fight? Do you have such strength now?

This is a war at the national level, can it be a small Wufeng Islands?

Zhen Qian was depressed!

"Hurry up and investigate the history of the war between Silla and Wa over the years, the more detailed the better!"

Although Zhen Qian knew that there was constant friction between the Silla Kingdom and the Japanese State, with a small fight every three or five years and a major fight every ten years, and that the Japanese State had the upper hand every time, the problem was that Zhen Qian did not know how far the war between the two countries would develop.

If the Japanese defeated Silla this time, or if the Silla governor drove straight into the main island of the Japanese country, this would be a good result, and I am afraid that the two countries will start a tug-of-war around Tsushima Island and Iki Island, and the war will easily spread to the Gobong Islands at that time.

Could it be that at that time, Zhen Qian jumped out and shouted, the Wufeng Islands have nothing to do with the Wa Kingdom, don't you want to involve the Wufeng Islands in the war?

War is not a child's play, whether it is the Silla Kingdom or the Wa Kingdom, when it is found that there is another force at the door of their own home, they will definitely destroy it first.

Bitter!

Now Zhen Qian regrets a little that he chose the first overseas foothold in the Wufeng Islands, and his strength is insufficient!

"Tianxing, how is the training of the new barracks now?"

Now that Zhen Jiu has gone to Bohai and has not returned, Wang Tianxing is in charge of the affairs of the new military camp, Zhen Qian naturally knows what the situation of the new military camp is, but he still wants to hear what Wang Tianxing has to say.

"Ugh!"

Wang Tianxing is a little stuck, the new military camp is different from the ordinary military camp, it is a bit like the nature of the military academy and the recruit training camp in later generations. Usually the new recruits are trained in the boot camp for more than three months, and then they are organized into different branches according to the results of the training, the lowest class is the spearmen, followed by the shield bearers, because of the lack of horses on the island, so there are no cavalry arms for the time being.

If the soldiers with excellent grades will continue to stay in the recruit camp and begin the training of generals, the youngest will be a junior officer in the ranks.

Wang Tianxing hated boring training and study all day, this was the case in the wolf's den, and it was still the case in the Wufeng Islands, and he didn't care about his position as the temporary manager of the new barracks, so he didn't care: "There are still more than 2,400 recruits in the new barracks, and 1,500 of them are recruits who just joined the army two months ago, so they should have some combat strength!" ”

Zhen Qian raised his foot and wanted to kick Wang Tianxing, thinking that his bones were really not as hard as his, so he gave up stupidly.

"Get out!"

Wang Tianxing wanted to run, and as soon as he turned around, he heard Zhen Qian behind him: "Come back!" I ask you, how is the fort built? ”

"One will let so-and-so go, and the other will let so-and-so come back, whether to roll or come back ......."

"Turret!"

Wang Tianxing hesitated and said, "That...... This, I don't know, Zhen San is responsible for this matter, why are you asking me! ”

Zhen Qian really wanted to kick this guy to death, Zhen San was in charge, but the progress of the fort construction was excellent, as a general in charge of the defense of the North Main Island, shouldn't he ask about it, at least if he had time, he should go and see it!

The mud doesn't make it up to the wall!

Wang Tianxing is a heartless and heartless man.

The importance of the Five Peaks Islands far exceeds that of the other islands, mainly because of the geographical location, regardless of the economy, products, and size of the islands.

The Wufeng Islands not only held the southward exit of the Wa Kingdom, but also served as the only way for the Wa Kingdom and the Tang Dynasty to pass through the sea route, and could even become a transit point for trade between the Silla Kingdom and the Balhae Kingdom, which was of great significance to Zhen Qian, who was well aware of the maritime civilization.

Because of this, Zhen Qian has always regarded the Wa State as an imaginary enemy, and even the Silla State is a potential opponent.

Such an important island, how dare Zhen Qian take it lightly, although Zhen Qian has no ability to expand now, he can't help but consider how to protect himself. Since the first thing to do is to do a good job of defense, the fort will bear the brunt of Zhen Qian's highest priority defensive force, and when Zhen San will make the defensive artillery that day, he can also sit back and relax.

Now Zhen San has been able to cast a pound of small artillery on a small scale, and this kind of cannon naturally cannot become a defensive artillery, but when fighting infantry, the deterrent power is still good.

As for the three-pounder artillery, Zhen San has cast a few of them during this time, which is not very good, nor how bad, but it is easy to explode after putting dozens of cannons, without it! There are bubbles inside, the barrel is heated unevenly, and the stress transmission is not smooth, resulting in cracks, and it will naturally explode after a long time.

Zhen Qian got up, put on a cloak and said, "Go!" Come with me to the fort and have a look? ”

"Why me?" Wang Tianxing was a little reluctant.

"Do you want to go, if you don't go, don't come within a hundred steps of my room next time......"

"Go! Of course I'm going! Wang Tianxing immediately put on a smiling face that made people want to beat him up, and at this moment he turned into Zhen Qian's most loyal and fearless bodyguard, standing behind Zhen Qian, his hand on the hilt of the knife, a pair of eyes wide, looking around, ready to intercept suspicious people outside Zhen Qian at any time.

Zhen Qian was speechless, this guy should be in estrus, in the name of protecting Zhen Qian, wandering around the parliament building all day long, hooking up with beautiful waitresses from time to time, this is no secret, should I castrate him.

The group came to the foot of the main peak of the port on the north main island, and met Zhen San, who was commanding civilian work, and saw more than a dozen migrant workers taking turns carrying a cannon to the mountain, and immediately puzzled: "Zhen San, what is this doing?" ”

"Master!"

Zhen San saw Zhen Qian walking down from the carriage, took a few steps hurriedly, and said with irrepressible joy on his face: "The three-pound artillery experiment has been successful, and now we are preparing to test the performance of the artillery in all aspects. ”
