Chapter 98: Immortal Island
Lu Chuanzong's worries did not happen after all, at this time, Jiannu's strength had not yet reached its peak, and he only wanted to occupy the outside world, and he had no delusions about the Huahua world of the Ming Dynasty. Therefore, Jiannu does not have a naval army, it is all a group of landlubbers, and there is no way to take Yang Renyu's troops who sleep peacefully on the island.
But Yang Renyu didn't want to attack Jiannu yet, unless there were Han fugitives who could be retracted, and his slave soldiers had only undergone preliminary strength training and military training training, and they did not have combat effectiveness at all.
Before leaving, Yang Wenli told him to find a suitable island to station, train soldiers, and then send troops to attack Jiannu when the time was ripe.
Therefore, what Yang Renyu wants to do most now is to find an island to set up camp, of course, it is not completely unnecessary, because they still have to go ashore to grab Jiannu's war horses, but this requires the right timing.
After resting on Sanshan Island for three days in a row, so that the soldiers' spirit was restored, Yang Renyu ordered the fleet to pull anchor and set sail.
Or go far south along the coast, because Yang Wenli told him that the coastal islands on the east coast of the Liaodong Peninsula are the territory of Dongjiang Town, and he doesn't want to be an enemy of the official army now, so looking for a suitable island in Liaodong Bay is the only choice.
From the narrow south of Jinzhou, it is deserted, so there is no fort for Jiannu, Jiannu has completely given up here, yes, there are only so many people in Jiannu in total, and even Jinfu covers the three states are not satisfied, and it is natural that this place is abandoned.
Although there is a large amount of land, Yang Renyu does not dare to camp on land, and now they are still very weak, and it is really unwise to fight head-on with Jiannu, and at most they can only fight guerrillas.
Along the way, there was also a happy event, the twenty-two wounded sailors were all healed, and none of them died.
This is mainly due to the local penicillin made by Yang Wenli, the anti-inflammatory effect is so good that it is perverted, the ancients have not received penicillin treatment at all, and the bacteria have no resistance. Another point is that they have adapted to life at sea, so it does not affect their health. On the contrary, there were more than a dozen healthy slave soldiers, who could not adapt to the long sea drift, and died of illness.
In short, it was a miracle that even the wounded sailors themselves could not believe that they were still alive. It is also a great encouragement to others, and it is equivalent to everyone having a second or even a third life. This is the advantage of the reborn, and it is also the capital of Yang Wenli's struggle to dominate the world.
When the sailors are healed, they can take over the soldiers who are temporary sailors, so that Yang Yi Tengwu will become pure combatants, and their duty will become to guard the fleet, of course, when the conditions are ripe, they will also have to go ashore to participate in the battle.
Walk to the southern tip of the peninsula, as the coastline begins to sail westward, you can see the mouth of Lushun in the distance, since last June Lushun was broken by Mang Gurtai with 6,000 armor soldiers, after destroying the city, Denglai Governor Wu Zhiwang immediately ordered Zhang Pan to lead the troops to occupy, now this is the only land fortress in Dongjiang Town.
There was a navy at Lushunkou, stationed on Shuangdao not far from the shore, so when Yang Renyu's fleet appeared, a navy immediately drove up to meet him.
It was a small boat, and it was estimated that the Dongjiang sailors also knew that it could not be Jiannu, thinking that it was a merchant ship from Dengzhou, but they were just here for interrogation.
"Who are you waiting for? Why? The boat rowed near, and an officer dressed as a lieutenant on board asked aloud.
"We are righteous people in the south, because we do not build slaves and murderers, so we voluntarily come to Liaodong to kill prisoners, and now we just want to find an uninhabited island to station, and then go ashore to find an opportunity to kill the captives on another day." Lu Chuanzong replied to the officers and soldiers at the behest of Yang Renyu.
At that time, it was the height of summer, and there was no one wearing armor, and there were people in the cabin to escape the heat, and the officers and soldiers had never explored the truth and reality, but only ordinary hundreds of righteous people, so they did not take it to heart, so they replied: "You are loyal and righteous, and you can serve the country with sincerity, and you can admire it, and you can go to Liaodong Bay with large and small islands, and you can find an island to live on at will. ”
"This is a serious discussion, dare not agree." Lu Chuanzong raised his hand in response.
At present, the own side does not have the ability to face the battle head-on, and it still needs to practice martial arts hard and train soldiers, so it is not appropriate to grudge with officers and soldiers.
Then the officer asked, "Who are the leaders of the righteous men?" Please also tell me that it is good to return to the official. ”
As mentioned above, Yang Renyu led the crowd to Liao, just to play the banner and serve as a benchmark for the Han people in Liaodong, not to cover up, so Yang Renyu replied generously: "A certain Yang Renyu, a person from Qizhou, Huguang, has been practicing martial arts since childhood, and now I see Jianyu wreaking havoc in Liaodong.
A certain person from the mountains and wilderness, he doesn't like to associate with the government, and he doesn't want to be an enemy of the government. ”
Yang Renyu's words are orders, since there are heralds to the stern helm room to give orders, a few ships to avoid the double islands, the officers and soldiers did not care, although it is two giant boats, but only a few hundred soldiers, in Liaodong, the place of the four wars, there is no wind and waves, maybe one day it will disappear, so he just reported to the officials, and reported the situation truthfully, without saying a word.
When it came to Zhang Pan's desk, he didn't care, even if hundreds of people were brave, it would be difficult to succeed, so he put the matter on hold.
Zhang Pan was originally a general of Mao Wenlong, but he was transferred here by Wu Zhiwang, the governor of Denglai, so he is now two bosses, a little tied, but he is finally free of worries, but it is difficult to make achievements, and he is separated by a hundred and ten miles from Jiannu, and he ends up in an invincible and undefeated situation.
The reason why the Ming army was able to occupy Lushun was not because of the natural danger and the fact that Jiannu could not conquer it, but because Lushun was a water city, built by water, only to defend against land, it was difficult to prevent water, and Jiannu had no water army, so he did not dare to defeat Zhang Panhou and garrisoned in this city, but destroyed the city and left.
After being told by the officers and soldiers, and having Yang Wenli's face-to-face friendship, Yang Renyu only commanded the fleet to go straight to Liaodong Bay. I saw that there were many large and small islands along the way, some of which were far from the land, and there were officers and soldiers stationed, such as Pig Island and Mayang Island, and some of the islands were too small and had no fresh water resources, so they were nameless desert islands and were not suitable for garrisons.
When officers and soldiers came forward to inquire about other islands where officers and soldiers were stationed, Lu Chuanzong exaggerated the words of the officers and soldiers of Lushun Shuangdao, only saying that the Lushun guards had given them permission to find an island to live on.
The garrisons on these islands, which only assisted in the defense of Lushun, or garrisoned or generalized, were all subject to Zhang Pan's control, and they did not dare to disobey Shangguan's orders, so they let Yang Renyu's fleet continue to go north.
During this period, they encountered several once inhabited islands, namely Chahe Island and Zhongdao, all of which were too close to the mainland, and Jiannu had stationed heavy troops at Nanxunkou, and the residents of the islands had already been evacuated by officers and soldiers.
In the end, on a vast island, Yang Renyu was finally selected as the place to garrison, in fact, it was Changsheng Island, although the area was vast, with a radius of 100 miles and more than 1,000 acres of land, but also because it was too close to the shore, the islanders fled to Denglai by boat as early as when the old slave occupied Liaodong.
None of these islands were garrisoned by officers and soldiers, and they may have existed before, but when it froze in winter, the captives could come by stepping on the ice, and they could not defend it, so they had to retreat.
