Outside the plug, the sky is blue.

Daxianbei City is like a majestic pass for thousands of years, located in the vast prairie.

This is the first city city built by the Chenhe Chamber of Commerce, and its width is 25 square kilometers.

What is the concept, the concept is, the length and width are five kilometers each. Such a long city wall was built in a year, which shows how much manpower and material resources this city has spent.

But it's a pity that at this moment, there is only one building in this city, which is the county seat of Daxianbei City.

Su Da, Jian Xian, and Gan Ning stood on the top of the five-story city, and as far as the eye could see, except for the traces left by the construction of sewers, there was nothing, and the grassland was still a grassland.

"Two generals, thank you for the support of the legion for the construction of the Great Xianbei City for a long time, now that the Great Xianbei City has been completed, it is only necessary to carry out the internal construction according to the plan."

Jian Yan said: "What did Governor Su say, this is what the prince explained, how can he not do it." Besides, there was no delay in the military cantonment, the wheat harvest was good, and we are now self-sufficient in the rations of the army, and it is not a delay in time. ”

Gan Ning also said: "To be honest, if you want me to lead the troops to fight, I am not ambiguous at all, I am really a little stunned to command this construction, you have to invite us to drink as many meals, you can do it yourself, haha!" ”

"Please drink this little thing, but two generals, I'm afraid you don't have time to drink. The two of you should not have heard of the news that just arrived today, the boats of the member units of our Chenhe Chamber of Commerce have been attacked by several pirates in the past few days. I don't know where the water pirates came from, it is very likely that the Liaoshui transportation has increased recently, and the pirates along the coast smelled the fishy smell and dared to fight the idea of the Chenhe caravan. When Su Da said this, it was unbelievable.

With the strength of the Chenhe Chamber of Commerce on the water, even Cao Cao's court did not dare to say that it could block half a point on the water.

"The two generals listened to me, these water thieves didn't directly rob my Chenhe Chamber of Commerce caravan, after all, Gongzi specially instructed that the Chenhe caravan must assemble and act, and there are dozens or hundreds of boats in one dispatch, and there are too many guards, and the other party doesn't dare to do anything. But our member units of the Chenhe Chamber of Commerce have been looted seven or eight times recently, and it is said that some members have retreated. ”

Jian Yan said: "This shouldn't have anything to do with us, we now have 50,000 cavalry, and we are used to fighting immediately, if we really get on the ship to suppress pirates, I really don't know if we can get used to it." ”

"Commander Jian, just give me Gan Ning, as long as you give me an order, give me a few ships, and promise to exterminate all the pirates and pirates."

"Yo, I forgot, Xingba is a Jinfan thief, no, it's a water thief, it's that uh-huh."

"Oh, Commander Jian, our brother, what is it, I am from a thief's background, so what, our Chenhe Chamber of Commerce has long been not paying attention to these. Besides, Childe's background is not necessarily better than me! ”

"Two generals, there is no order from the childe's side yet, you two should wait first. What I want to say now is that now that my Chenhe Chamber of Commerce is cooperating with the China Eastern Airlines Commercial Bank, there is a large batch of pickled mutton recently, which is to be sent to Donglai City. ”

"This is no problem, General Gan, this matter will be handed over to you, give you 5,000 soldiers, and go with the goods."

The three of them chatted, and saw Cen Hang, the person in charge of the China Eastern Airlines Chamber of Commerce, from a distance, who brought more than a dozen escorts over, and after greetings, they arranged for the transportation of goods.

At this moment, Yang Xi was in Xiapi, and he also received the news, and the news he received was not as simple as a pirate.

The feedback from merchants from all over the country flew into the Chenhe City County Citizen Center like snowflakes, and after Sangou sorted it out, it was passed on to Yang Xi.

In addition to Jiaozhou, Jingzhou, Yizhou, Liangzhou, Liaodong and all areas controlled by Cao Cao began to set up checkpoints to collect tariffs from the Chenhe Chamber of Commerce and its members.

The amount of tariff levied is 1 tax of 10 taxes, which is quite terrifying, even if agriculture is heavy and business is suppressed, ordinary commodities are only 30 taxes and 1, and only salt and iron are only 10 taxes and 1.

Ten taxes are a concept, and ten percent of the turnover is taxed.

"This should be Cao Cao's ghost, and others should not have this energy at present."

"It is estimated that this water thief was also made by Cao Cao."

The issue of paying tariffs was an obstacle set by Cao Cao, but obviously Cao Cao did not dare to turn his face directly, so Yang Xi pretended not to know, and paid taxes when he paid taxes. Nowadays, the dependence of various places on the products of the Chenhe Chamber of Commerce has reached a certain level, and if they want to ban circulation, it is impossible, and they can only collect tariffs to suppress it.

However, this water piracy cannot be tolerated, this is a problem that undermines the commercial order, and it must be directly cracked down.

So Yang Xi ordered Wei Gua to solve the problem.

At the same time, Yang Xi directly sent a team of ten giant ships to the north and allocated it to the Qingzhou Theater, which was directly under the command of the commander of the theater.

On the third day of August, it rained heavily in the northern part of the Bay of Bengal and the wind was raging.

It's not that Pang Tong has never seen such weather, but this time it was particularly large, and more than a hundred giant ships seemed to be crumbling, and the wave height was definitely two meters.

Fortunately, the load of the battleship was not much, originally a ship could carry 3,000 soldiers and horses, but now there are only more than 1,000 people, and the draft of the battleship is shallow, and it can withstand the wind and waves.

The storm raged for three hours, but fortunately the shipbuilding technology is now more and more stable, and there are no problems with these ships. A day later, Pang Tong commanded the fleet to the mouth of the Ganges.

"General Pang, the dock is in a bay about twenty miles ahead of here, but the other side has a battery, after our detection, there are not a few batteries guarded by the other side, at least 500 cannons, if you attack at this time, it may become a confrontational situation, and there is a possibility of losing ships."

Huya had already found out the details of this place, so he naturally wanted to remind Pang Tong.

"How many defenders are there?" Pang Tong considered landing from elsewhere, attacking from the ground.

"There are not many defenders, according to the latest detection news of the Huya team, it should be around 30,000. But this Amir Empire has a powder gun, which is extremely powerful, with an effective range of 100 to 150 meters, even if it is 300 meters, it can hurt people and is a scattered bullet. Our crossbows, although not much different from them in range, have a lower degree of aiming at this distance. ”

"Shotshots? Isn't that an attack in pieces? ”

"Yes, it is useless to deal with this kind of firearm, 30,000 launchers, and 100,000 people can also be used."

Pang Tong was thoughtful, he had never seen the appearance of this thing, but Yang Xi had explained it to himself, and he could imagine it a little. What he didn't expect was that the other party turned out to be 30,000 soldiers in a small dock.

Pang Tong didn't know that at this moment, Amir couldn't have imagined that Yang Xi would send 200,000 troops for a small dock.

It can be seen how determined Yang Xi is to strangle Amir's navy in the cradle.

Yang Xi did not seek to completely destroy the Amir navy, but at least to hold him for a year or two, until Yang Xi consolidated his rule and defense in Southeast Asia.
