Goguryeo. Li Wending's command tent.

"We have to go on the offensive as soon as possible, because the constant attrition will make it difficult for us to maintain our finances. Population, we have to get a large population to sustain our mineral exploitation. Li Wending said.

"It's just that, at the moment, the ships we have collected are only small fishing boats, and they are not yet able to carry out large-scale landings. If there is resistance, I am afraid that it could be very bad. The worst thing is that our logistical supply needs to be done by these ships. Hawke said.

"I'm clear about that, but we have to have an adequate workforce. Otherwise, we won't be able to launch a bigger attack, which will have a big impact on us. Li Wending said firmly.

"Whatever that is. Immediately let them attack, no matter how many ships there are, one can also attack. Li Wending said resolutely. Hawke wanted to say something, but he couldn't figure out what Goguryeo needed, if it was to open mines, they could do it themselves, why they needed to get a large number of people from the south.

Goguryeo, 2nd Infantry Division, 7th Regiment, 2nd Battalion.

"The order has come down. We had to board the ship and go south. Captain Li Dao said to Sergeant Li Mu.

"Hmm. That's fine, but it's not a way to go on like this. Li Mu said.

"It's just that I'm worried about it, will those soldiers be able to withstand such a battle? And then there are the boats, some of which they haven't adapted to yet. Li Mu said.

"Don't worry too much, we're just walking along the coastline, it's still relatively safe, and there's no way to get used to it. Orders have been given from above, and this is the result of the refusal of our superiors to carry out the orders, and if it were not for this result, we would definitely have launched an attack. Li Dao said.

"That's how it is. Prepare our soldiers as much as possible, such a war will come sooner or later. Li Dao said.

"Yes, sir." Li Mu nodded and said. For such a war, many soldiers are still at a loss, they don't know what kind of use it is to spend so much money and equip them to go to the south to fight those southerners, and many soldiers still don't know why they are fighting. In the face of such a dazed war, the combat enthusiasm of the Goguryeo soldiers was not very high.

Dhara. The sacked city of Dhara became depressed. A large number of Dharas were sold into slavery, and women became the playthings of the pirates.

"Hurry up. Hurry up. One of the pirates excitedly waved his musket and shouted. I saw a full-body* dhara lewd man covering his organs and looking at the pirate.

"Fuck, what a cover. Come on. If there is a woman, go up. Hurry up. Don't let Lao Tzu come forward and cut your bird. The pirate scolded fiercely, and the pirates around him laughed loudly.

"Hurry up." The pirate shouted excitedly. And on the ground, a Dhara woman was lying motionless on the ground, her whole body* and she looked like she had been insulted many times. Women don't have much strength left. And the pirates let the Dhara men who were willing to take refuge with them play with such women, and most importantly, such a scene was in front of the large number of Dhara prisoner of war camps, and thousands of Dhara men watched angrily. But their expressions were extremely complicated, some excited, some angry, and some overwhelmed, and they had no idea what they were up against.

"That's right. That's it, you fucking use a little bit of energy, on a woman, just as much as you want, how much strength. Hurry up. The pirates shouted excitedly.

And in the high part of the prisoner of war camp, there were many heads hanging from it, some of them the heads of the pirates, but some of them were the work of the Dharas who had taken refuge, and they did so in order to win them over.

"We've gained a lot this time, sir." The first mate said to Li Man with a smile.

"A lot of that's right. Let our people, repair this place, let's finally come here, in the future we will build a base here, with such a base, we can go deep inland. If you see more cities, you can take them. Li Man said excitedly.

"Sir, it's just here that we need a large number of soldiers to be stationed. A lot of people don't want to do something like that. The first mate said.

"If you don't want to do it, they're willing to rob it." Li Man said.

"Sir, you should consider their feelings, after all, we are all willing to do rich business when we come out, and many brothers are unwilling to do such a hard life." The first mate said.

"Hmm. This is also a problem, everyone is willing to get rich, and the defense is boring, and you can't get rich yet, too. Li Man said.

"Are there any of those Dharas who are willing to join us in the fight?" At this time, Li Man suddenly thought of something. So he asked.

"Yes, sir, but the language is not very fluent, and we don't know if they are sincere or not, but we still have a way, for example, let them play with women, or kill someone, so that they will have to do it if they don't want to. At the very least, they did it in front of those Dharas, and if they didn't do it, those Dharas would have to listen to us. The first mate said to the captain.

"It's a good job, in this case, even if they surrender, nothing good will come of it." Li Man said. Pirates have pirate thoughts, and they still don't believe in the Dharas who have taken refuge in them, after all, gaining the trust of pirates is a very troublesome thing. For those Dharas, they can only gain their most basic trust by following what the pirates do, and that's it, they still can't live like humans.

"Next, let these people, and our people go deep into the interior to see what kind of city there is, and launch it, let them kill more people and rob more, and you will know. We don't have to do it ourselves. Let them do it themselves. "Li Man arranged.

"Yes, sir, I see. But I don't think we're going to be a little slow to grab one after another. "The first mate suggested.

"Slow, slow is good, slow to scrape clean. How good this Dhara city is, it must be scraped in a hurry, so that the brothers don't make trouble. Collect your heart, grab more things, and sell things for money in disguise. Otherwise, you don't know what to do with it. Li Man waved his hand and said. With the capture of the first base. Li Man began to plan his next move.
