Of course, it is impossible for Captain Guo Beyu and Squadron Leader Zhang Depei to sell their naval warships to the king of Srivijaya...... No matter how high the price he will give!

The ship had become a part of their lives. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

However, the ways and reasons for their refusal can still be recognized by the other party.

After Captain Guo Beyu finished explaining the reason for his refusal, he added seriously: "Even if I give it to you right now...... You have no one to wield it, and you don't know how to use those weapons, unlike your convoys. ”

Squadron Leader Zhang Depei then added: "Artillery is very different from firearms...... It's powerful, but it's also dangerous! ”

These are all facts...... The two young soldiers did not treat each other as brainless natives.

The king of Srivijaya had originally intended to buy the fleet entirely, and he was confident that there would be enough spices in his warehouse...... But he can also understand the other party's refusal, and it is now the time of war on the island of Liuqiu.

Although he was thousands of miles away from the Great Song Dynasty, he had also heard of the war between Liuqiu and the Tatar bandit group...... Although he had not yet come into contact with the Tatars, he had heard the terrible legends of those people.

He, like normal people, had absolutely no affection for the Tatar bandit group.

Whether it is a Huihui merchant from the west, or a Great Song merchant or a liuqiu merchant from the east, there is no one who can praise that bandit group!

So, he understood that this fleet was not something he could buy, and perhaps the Liuqiu people needed them more.

A few warships that retreated to them also seemed unlikely...... It is true that the sailors in their country do not manipulate.

King Sriwijaya whispered to his ministers and generals.

The generals in his hands were also canonized by the Great Song government...... I even have a seal.

As early as more than 100 years ago, on July 3 of the second year of Yuanfeng of Song Shenzong, the king of the Three Buddhas Kingdom sent envoys Qun Tuo Bi Luo and Tuo Pan Yali to the Great Song Dynasty to pay tribute to various spices, and Song Shenzong gave back 1,500 taels of silver at that time, and named Qun Tuo Bi Luo as the general of Ning Yuan, and Tuo Pan Yali as the general of Bao Shun Lang.

Later, the so-called title of General Ning Yuan was inherited in the Srivijaya Kingdom and became the title of the highest-ranking military general in China.

The current General Ning Yuan expressed his opinion to his king...... What those who beg for the navy say is true!

Captain Guo Beyu and Squadron Leader Zhang Depei remembered what their Zhang Island Lord had done to the Ryukyu Kingdom, so they made a suggestion that they should organize a team of 500 sailors and follow them back to Liuqiu Island, learn to operate Liuqiu warships, and at least bring back the warships purchased on Liuqiu Island in the future.

General Ning Yuan of the Srivijaya Kingdom asked happily, "Is it like you trained the King's Guard?" ”

What he meant was not only to train them, but also to provide them with a full set of weapons.

Captain Guo Beyu and Squadron Leader Zhang Depei pondered for a moment, those weapons on land can be said to be extremely simple, but the weapons on the sea are more complicated, I don't know what their island owner's attitude will be.

The two just said a few words tactfully, meaning that everything should be decided by the island master Zhang.

The king of the Sriwijaya Kingdom said indifferently: "You can sell the navy to the Bo Ni warships and weapons, and you must be able to sell them to our country------ our country is much stronger than the Bo Ni country!" ”

Well, Captain Guo Beyu and Captain Zhang Depei were speechless, in the Austronesian Islands, the Sriwijaya Kingdom is indeed "strong", ------ level of war between them, in the eyes of the Liuqiu Navy, it is actually like a group fight, and they even row the canoe of the two of them are also considered warships, so their level of naval warfare can be seen.

It is not surprising that the king of the Sriwijaya Kingdom can know about the sale of warships from Liuqiu Island to Boni, although the two countries are sandwiched between the Javanese country, they have very close contacts, so they will know each other's affairs.

The king of the Sriwijaya kingdom promised: "I will sell you another piece of land, which must be far more than where you are in the country of Boni!" ”

Captain Guo Beyu and Captain Zhang Depei looked at each other and smiled.

The land issue has never been the main issue in this time and space, and now their land area in the Sriwijaya Kingdom is large enough that it has reached the limit of construction and development.

At that time, many of the Great Song merchants and all the Liuqiu merchants had built their trading stations and shops to the south of the Liuqiu Naval Base, which had become a new commercial street that attracted countless people to buy or exchange products.

Of course, the Sriwijaya kingdom also received a huge amount of tax revenue from it.

Although the construction of the naval base of the Liuqiu Navy in the Sriwijaya Kingdom was a little later than that of the Boni Kingdom and the scale was smaller, it was still under construction.

The king of the Sriwijaya Kingdom had already received accurate information from the Bo Ni Kingdom, and begged for the navy's base there, and made the Bo Ni Kingdom collect two percent more commercial taxes out of thin air!

These two percent of the tax revenue should not be underestimated, and their warships came out of that expense------ and in connection with the situation of their own country, they would bring security and prosperity wherever they went.

Their naval base is nothing short of a little cornucopia!

The king of the Sriwijaya Kingdom has already discussed with the ministers, they can give more land than the Boni Kingdom, anyway, the Liuqiu Navy will pay for it, and it will also build there, and even bring more taxes to the country, why not!

Therefore, they are smart to sell more land to the Liuqiu Naval Base------ anyway, that place is basically a dense jungle, let them build it!

Captain Guo Beyu smiled bitterly at the time and said, "We lack the necessary labor------

Originally, even if their tools for reclamation and construction were advanced, a lot of work still had to be done by manpower, and they didn't have enough manpower for construction now, so they couldn't do anything about it if they sold them land.

Squadron Leader Zhang Depei added that their navy's funds are not so sufficient------

The king of the Sriwijaya Kingdom waved his hand indifferently, the so-called land sale was nothing more than a symbolic "sale", and he was not in a hurry to collect money------ and he also had new suggestions about labor.

"There is a lot of labor in Java------ so we can catch them and do the work!" he said. ”

Captain Guo Beyu and Squadron Leader Zhang Depei suddenly understood that they still had the idea of letting the Liuqiu Navy participate in the war between them!

The king of the Sriwijaya Kingdom smiled and said, "You don't kill pirates when you catch them, but let them work, although they are given rations, but they get a lot of money------ although the labor of the Java region is not as strong as the labor of my Sriwijaya Kingdom, but it is better than nothing, right?" How can the two of them work more than one person in our country? ”

In fact, in the eyes of the Liuqiu Navy, there is not much difference between the two countries in terms of race, they are both dark-skinned and small, and almost all of them are a head shorter than the Liuqiu and the Great Song people.

But they did not interrupt the "self-confidence" of the king of the Sriwijaya Kingdom, and allowed him to say that he wanted to use the sword of the Liuqiu Navy to deal with the Java state. (To be continued.) )
