The winter wind and waves in the South China Sea are not very strong, and there is the shelter of Zhuyazhou, and the coast of Jiaozhou is very suitable for boating. The three fleets of Gan Ning, Zhou Tai, and Zheng Chenggong headed west along the coast of Hepu County.

They had come with three other fleets, but had lost their way in some of the islands. They were not very clear about the topography of Jiaozhou, so they temporarily rested on a relatively large island, and then sent several sea fish ships to reconnoitre. After searching for a few days, I finally figured out this archipelago and drew a rough chart.

Only then did Gan Ning and the others come out of the archipelago and look for an estuary along the coast. When they arrived at the estuary, Gan Ning was separated from the other two.

Not far from entering the sea, Gan Ning put Wang Xiong on the shore. Wang Xiong took the army ashore and immediately set up camp. I've been jolting on the sea for more than half a month, and it's a little uncomfortable. He and the navy found a good port and built a camp together, and then Ganning began to sail back to deliver supplies. While Wang Xiong was repairing, he sent people to investigate.

Zhang Yi collected the map of Jiaozhou, but it was rough, and Wang Xiong didn't know where he was. But a day later, they knew their specific location, they were in the southeast of Quyang County in Jiaozhi County, Quyang was only forty or fifty miles away from Longbian, that is to say, they were not far from the governance of Jiaozhou, Jiaozhi County, as long as they took here, they could disintegrate the power of the Shi family.

However, Wang Xiong and they were also discovered, they are only twenty or thirty miles away from Quyang, Jiaozhi County is the most populous county in Jiaozhou, tens of millions of military operations, and it is difficult to provoke people's attention. When Wang Xiong discovered Quyang, Quyang also discovered them, Shigan, the fourth son of Shixie, who was guarding here. Shixie's sons still have some talents, although they are the emperors of the soil, but they don't have many children.

Shigan also sent an envoy to Shixie, and Shixie immediately sent reinforcements. Fortunately, most of the soldiers of the dragon weave were taken away by Shi Hui, and Shi Xie could only defend.

Quyang was tightly defended, and Wang Xiong had no intention of attacking. He doesn't have much supplies, so let's wait for Gan Ning to come back! Gan Ning returned to Xuwen County, not to Shanghai City. After Li Jun returned, he explained the situation to Gu Yong, who immediately organized merchant ships to help transport supplies to Xu Wen, and after copying the navigation charts, they were distributed to merchant ships so that they could know the route.

Wang Xiong's side stopped, and Zhou Tai and Zheng Chenggong continued to move forward. When they reached the estuary of the second relatively large river, the two fleets stopped, and Zheng Chenggong led them south along the coastline to escort He Qi and Lu Fan. And Zhou Tai built a water village to help the two block the north. He Qi and Lü Fan began to go south, and after more than 20 miles, they finally came to the first county seat, Wugong County.

Wugong County is the northernmost county of Jiuzhen County, and it is still a small county. All right! Jiuzhen County and Rinan County do not have big counties, even their governing places Xupu County and Xijuan County are not big counties, and the population is too small to build a large county at all. There weren't many defenders in either county, but they were still harassed by a lot of barbarians. These barbarians are not Wuling Barbarians or Nanban, but local natives here.

But these people, like other barbarians, are peeking at the land of Jiaozhou, and many places in Jiuzhen County and Rinan County have been occupied by these barbarians. It's too far away from the Central Plains Dynasty, and the Central Plains Dynasty doesn't take them seriously, and even officials don't bother to appoint them, because it's too far away and no one wants to come.

Because of China's agricultural civilization, people prefer a comfortable life to leave their hometowns. This is the greatness and flaw of the agrarian civilization, and it is said that it is great because the agrarian civilization will know how to stop in moderation, and if it is too far away, it will not go back and pay attention. To say that the defect is too peaceful, and after entering the global era, it will definitely suffer.

He Qi and Lu Fan have rich experience in fighting Shanyue in Huiji, and they know exactly when to suppress and when to appease. went south to capture Wugong County, and the two immediately went south again to conquer Jufeng and Xupu. These places have been conquered by the barbarians, and Shi Xie doesn't care about them.

He Qi stayed in Xupu and assigned some soldiers to Lü Fan, and asked Lü Fan to go south to help him capture the other county towns of Jiuzhen County. He Qi assisted Yan Lan in re-establishing the government system of Jiuzhen County and re-establishing the defense system centered on Xu Pu.

Lü Fan led He Qi's soldiers south, attacking Wubian and Xianhuan all the way. The population of Jiuzhen County is not very large, only more than 50,000 households, more than 200,000 people. But as long as there is a population, it is good to have a population, and it is good to develop.

Lu Fan did not stop in Jiuzhen County, but directly entered Rinan County. However, there are more than 100 miles from Xianhuan to Bijing County in Rinan County, and there are no roads, so Lu Fan directly lit a fire from Xianhuan to the sea and sought Zheng Chenggong's help. Zheng Chenggong has always been in the offshore position according to the fire given by Lu Fan to escort Lu Fan. Seeing Lu Fan summoning him, he immediately led his troops over, picked up Lu Fan and continued to the south.

Around Bijing County, Zheng Chenggong found a suitable place to put Lu Fan down.

Lü Fan sent scouts to find the location of Bijing County, and then directly conquered it. Take Bijing County and continue to attack Zhuwu and Xijuan in the south. After taking the Western Scroll, Lü Fan and Dai Yuan stayed in the Western Scroll, began to form a county government, and sent a partial division to attack Lu Rong.

After taking Lu Rong, all of Ninan County returned to the rule of the Han Dynasty. Jiuzhen and Ninan are both in a semi-independent state, which has a certain relationship with the inaction of the Central Plains Dynasty and the fact that Shixie and others don't want to care. The most important thing is related to the gradual strengthening of the barbarians near Jiuzhen and Rinan, and in the south of Rinan, there is a Linyi State, which was established decades ago. This Linyi country was born from Xianglin County in Ninan, and this country was founded by the barbarian occupation here, constantly eroding the territory of Ninan County.

The Cham people are the indigenous people of Southeast Asia, and their dark skin may have something to do with living in the tropics. Not all the Zhan people rebelled, and there were still many Zhan people in Jiuzhen County and Rinan County who kept to themselves.

Lin Yi Guo is indeed a threat to Ninan County. Zheng Chenggong's navy established a port and a water village in Lurong to assist Lurong in defending against a possible attack on Linyi, and after waiting for the two counties to settle down, he was on a crusade against Linyi. Lin Yi Kingdom may be very powerful for Rinan County, but for Zhang Yi, it is a small country that can be destroyed at will, but he doesn't have the time to deal with it now.
