Chapter 544: Step by step
Starting from New Taipei City, Yan Ming took Penglai Port directly.
Penglai Port is full of many people, and I went to Fuso.
However, this army of levies attracted the onlookers of the Han masses.
What's even more interesting is that the faces of the people who came to see off their relatives and friends did not have the sadness of sending relatives and friends on the expedition in the past, but more exhortations, and there were smiles on their faces.
Unconsciously, it seems to have become a guarantee to go on an expedition with Yan Ming and Yan Houye.
Yan Ming didn't know that he had inadvertently become a god-of-war existence of the Great Han.
The title of this god of war is not quite the same as Wei Qing's.
Wei Qing fought many tough battles, and he was killed in blood and fire.
And Yan Ming, the title of the god of war, is more accumulated from many expeditions with small battle losses or even zero battle losses.
Many of the soldiers who also returned from the expedition with Yan Ming would preach that Yan Ming used things like muskets to kill and injure enemy soldiers from a long distance. Delight in discussing.
It is this kind of relish that has made Yan Ming's name as the god of war.
In fact, Yan Ming is a pseudo-god of war.
He never commanded a larger campaign alone.
This time, it was craftsmen and people who were good at farming.
Such a strange army, apparently, is not going to war. This makes people look forward to it even more, and makes people reverie about the deployment of Yan Ming, the little marquis.
These farmers, even craftsmen, were young people.
Most of the hot ones selected by Yan Ming are unmarried. Both men and women.
He wants to give the Fuso people something more unique.
The craftsmen and farmers who stayed in Penglai Harbor for three days finally waited for Yan Ming's ship.
A huge transport ship, as well as two escort ships.
And in Penglai Port, there are still a few ships, although they are wooden, but they were also requisitioned by Yan Ming.
"Craftsmen, stand in line here and sign up." After Yan Ming's ship docked, a clerk immediately came over to register the craftsman.
This is the action that Yan Ming let do.
Some of these craftsmen could build houses, while others could build city walls. There are even some that Yan Ming specially asked Lao Xu for, which can burn green bricks and lime cement.
Such talents must be selected individually.
There were 2,000 people, but there were fewer men and more women.
Women, as long as they know how to farm and weave.
They are all young people, so it's very lively together.
After Yan Ming announced his rules to everyone three times, he asked the people assembled in Penglai Port to start boarding the warship.
After the last person boarded the warship, Yan Ming bowed deeply in the direction of Chang'an and said loudly: "Please rest assured, Your Majesty, the minister will definitely pacify Fusang." ”
The cannon sounded, and the ship let out a whining whistle and gradually sailed away from Penglai Port.
These farmers and craftsmen, who were good at farming, left the mainland and went to Fuso.
The relatives who saw off the shore were a little sad when they saw the warship far away.
Yan Ming stood at the bow of the boat, looking at the vast sea, and the petrels soaring on the sea, and couldn't help but smile: "Haiyan, you have a snack." ”
Hearing Yan Ming's ridiculous voice, no one knew what this young Hou Ye was proud of.
The ship would have been able to reach Fuso very quickly.
But this time, there were two big wooden boats that carried people.
Therefore, Yan Ming and the others sailed for a day and a half before arriving at the port of Fusang.
Yan Ming didn't know the name of that place. I remember the location at that time.
Han Yan didn't know what this port was called, so she directly renamed the port - Donglai Port.
In the distance, Han Yan's army saw Yan Ming's transport ship and fleet on the shore.
"Reinforcements are coming." Han Yan said loudly.
This port is the beachhead occupied by Han Yan and them.
If they attack inside, Han Yan and they can't bear it. After all, there are only a limited number of people.
Seeing Yan Ming arrive with reinforcements, everyone showed a look of hope.
Yan Ming's ship slowly approached Donglai Port, and he was the first to approach the shore in a small boat.
Han Yan saw Yan Ming's figure from afar, shaking his hands proudly on the shore, smiling, and Yan Ming wanted to beat him.
"Yanhou, aren't you here too." Han Yan smiled proudly.
Yan Ming glanced at him angrily and said, "Isn't this reluctant to throw you here." ”
The two exchanged a few words, and then walked inside hand in hand.
"I'm bringing non-combatants this time, you're in charge of security, and we're in charge of expansion." Yan Ming said.
Han Yan was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Forget it." My army of thousands can only occupy such a small port. Once you go out, you will be ambushed by the Fuso people. ”
"Ambush? How much was the battle loss? Yan Ming said.
Han Yan was silent for a moment and said, "The battle damage is not big, but these Fusang people are very troublesome. We don't have many troops, and the places we occupy will be quickly taken back. If there were many people, they would have advanced hundreds of miles long ago. ”
Yan Ming looked at Donglai Port and said with a smile: "Didn't you say that after you went ashore, you have been controlled in this Donglai Port." ”
Han Yan didn't hide it, patted her thigh and said, "You're really right, I've been trapped in this Donglai port." But this beachhead is very well guarded. ”
Yan Ming nodded. He believed that Han Yan could guard this place very closely.
After all, their army was armed with flintlock pistols, military crossbows and swallow knives. There are even several fire and thunder projectors.
These things are not difficult to guard in the face of the Fuso masses who are almost primitive people.
"That's enough. We're playing little by little. Yan Ming said.
Han Yan was stunned for a moment and said, "Little devil? ”
Yan Ming blinked and said, "The name of the Fusang people, just know it." ”
The two men spoke, walking forward.
The port was originally a humble Fuso settlement.
Although there are walls, they are all earthen walls.
On the basis of the earthen city wall, Han Yan built a series of towers with wooden shelves, which were used to install fire and thunder trebuchets.
Seeing these situations, Yan Ming felt a little familiar.
Back then, when he fought against the Huns in the clouds, he used this method, and now Han Yan uses it again.
"Familiar." Han Yan said.
Yan Ming nodded and said, "You did this, you must have guessed what I was going to do, right?" ”
Han Yan looked at the craftsmen and cultivators who were disembarking, both men and women, and said, "You also want to build a cement city wall to stabilize the defense line like Cloud City?" ”
Yan Ming nodded and said, "This Donglai City is similar to the operation of Cloud City. But in the future, we must fight steadily, and in just a few years, we will be able to eat away this island country. And it doesn't consume the resources of the Han Dynasty. ”
Han Yan looked at Yan Ming like a pervert: "You are ......"
"Fight for war!" Yan Ming said.
His plan is to take the camp step by step and feed the war with war.
