The wind and the torrential rain raged all night, and by the time everything had calmed down, it was already the morning of the next day.

Qin Ze didn't sleep all night, but he wasn't too sleepy, and the whole person was still in an indescribable excitement. Retrieve the lieutenant general from the cabin and ask him to count the damage caused by the storm.

And Qin Ze went to the deck with impermanence, and the vast sea was calm again, and there was no trace of waves on the endless sea.

There was a mess on the deck, although Qin Ze knew about this storm before, but there was no way to fix all the goods. The three wooden boxes that were tied up with ropes broke the cowhide ropes, and then they didn't know where they were carried by the wind and waves.

There was also a wooden crate that had been shattered by the impact, and the various dry rations contained in it were also sprinkled all over the deck. A half-man-sized squid struggled weakly on the deck, but it could never go back, and it was probably brought up by the wind and waves.

These are not too serious, and it is nothing to lose some dry food, and it is a big deal to replenish some when you go to the Wa Kingdom. What Qin Ze is really worried about is the loss of the sea boat, yesterday's wind and waves were too strong, and the entire sea ship kept hitting the rocks, although it was not broken, but the three sails were broken.

This was a big problem, and Qin Ze had to order everyone to get off the ship first, and then slowly repair this sail.

Being able to get off the boat is a great joy for these people, and these people's obsession with Penglai Immortal Island has far exceeded Qin Ze's expectations.

Fortunately, this small island is only a hundred zhang in size, and it can be seen through at a glance, otherwise they may not be able to deify what it will become.

Because of the storm, the island is full of fish washed up by the wind and waves, so Qin Ze can also take a sip of fish soup.

Fish soup is really delicious, but if you drink too much, it will make people bored. Especially for a Guannei disciple like Cheng Huailiang, fish is not a good thing.

But now all he can eat is fish, and the canned food that Qin Ze prepared for him has almost eaten. And they didn't dare to eat the food provided by the Japanese state, so it also caused the current situation that the whole army drank fish soup.

In fact, it stands to reason that he will not fall into such a situation, but it is because he underestimated the king of the mountain back brother too much. Three months ago, a mysterious force sneaked up on their sea ship, if it weren't for Cheng Huailiang's timely response, I'm afraid it might really be possible to catch the other party's way.

Cheng Huailiang didn't think that the big brother Wang would turn his face, but he didn't expect him to turn over so quickly. He does have gunpowder in his hand, but he is afraid that rash action will arouse the anger of the people, in case the eldest brother of Shanbei wants to break the net with himself, it will not be easy to deal with, after all, they only have about 400 people when they are full.

Now Cheng Huailiang is waiting for an opportunity, waiting until winter comes, and then taking the imperial city together.

There are now four sea ships from Datang parked in the waters of the Wa Kingdom, in addition to Cheng Huailiang and Xue Rengui, there are two follow-up sea ships. These two sea ships are now parked a hundred miles away, waiting for Cheng Huailiang's order.

If he just took the imperial city, Cheng Huailiang would definitely not hesitate so much. But the problem is how to retreat after taking the imperial city, this is an alien battlefield, if the people of the Japanese country really don't want to die, no matter how much gunpowder he has, he may have nothing to do.

That's why he decided to wait, the Wa State itself has experienced a civil strife, and the treasury has long been "accidentally" blown up by Cheng Huailiang and others, so as long as the winter comes, the Wa State itself will not be able to support the soldiers' military rations.

It's a dumb method, but it's also an extremely useful one. It's just a question of how they're going to survive this time.

"I really miss my brother Qin, if he is here, he will definitely make us delicious." Cheng Huailiang was holding a sea fish in his hand and was swallowing it without a mouthful.

Xue Rengui on the side also had a sad face, he had really eaten fish for several months in a row, which had already made him lose his last patience.

"The scouts who went to the Imperial City to inquire have returned, and they are not very comfortable, we can at least eat canned food once a day, and they can't even eat sea fish. It won't be long before the back of the mountain has reached the point of exhaustion. ”

Xue Rengui also viciously bit the sea fish in his hand as he spoke.

Cheng Huailiang also let out a long sigh when he heard Xue Rengui say this: "At the beginning, I said that I could take the Japanese Kingdom in one year, but now I am trapped here, I am really ashamed of Your Majesty." ”

"After all, the Wa Kingdom is too far away from the Tang Dynasty, and it is not easy to send troops. However, if it is only said that it is not difficult to take the Wa Kingdom, the difficulty lies in how to defend the Wa Kingdom. ”

The hundred-legged insect is dead but not stiff, it is talking about the current Wa Kingdom, and the whole country has been in chaos, but the eldest brother of Shanbei is still sitting firmly in the imperial city.

Now that he has completely torn his face with Cheng Huailiang, there is no need for the big brother king of Shanbei to make up lies to deceive Cheng Huailiang. Now his biggest problem is how to deal with this crisis, it is a fact that the Japanese state cannot defeat the Tang army now, but if the Tang army wants to directly occupy the Japanese state, it is impossible.

The Japanese country is full of people, and the eldest brother Wang Tai minds using their bodies to guard his imperial power, and no one can snatch this right that he has won with great difficulty.

"Your Majesty, there have been several turmoil in the imperial city now, and if the surplus grain is requisitioned again, I am afraid that the people will mutini sooner or later."

Jiuye Shu held a pamphlet and handed it to the big brother king of the mountain. This records the situation of the treasury in the imperial city now, and at that time they thought that the Tang army had blown up the treasury unintentionally, but now that they think about it, they are afraid that it is not that simple.

There are less than thirty percent of the soldiers in the imperial city, but now they can't even get the salaries of these thirty percent soldiers. The imperial city still has to rely on them to defend against the Tang army, so naturally they can't be starved.

But it is not always possible to requisition food from the people's homes, after all, it is winter soon, and if the people hand over the winter rations, then how will they themselves survive the long winter.

The eldest brother of the mountain, the king, took the pamphlet and looked at it, and then threw it to the ground, and roared angrily: "Tell them that if they don't take out the food, then the entire Wa kingdom will be destroyed together." Since they didn't want to feed the soldiers, they let them attack the Tang army's sea ships. ”

Jiuye Shu's brows were also unconsciously wrinkled together when he heard this, and such words came out of the mouth of the eldest brother king on the back of the mountain, which was so unkind. And if you really tell the people to hear these words, I am afraid that this imperial city will be another bloody storm.

Cheng Huailiang is wasting time, and the big brother Wang is also wasting time. He was sure that Cheng Huailiang would not attack rashly, but he didn't expect Qin Ze to appear here like this.

After four months of sailing, Qin Ze finally came to this sea area, and at the same time directly took over the control here.

Qin Ze couldn't understand why Cheng Huailiang and the others would still be unable to move forward even though they had gunpowder in their hands. The Tang Dynasty never intended to subdue the Wa Kingdom, and the Tang Dynasty had only one goal from beginning to end, that is, to capture the Wa Kingdom.

They all seem to be the same, but they represent two different means. Therefore, on the first day that Qin Ze took over control here, he directly pressed into the Wa Kingdom with five sea ships.

Faced with the sudden addition of three sea ships, the big brother king of the mountain back was also taken aback at first. I thought it was the reinforcements from Datang who arrived, but in the end, after finding out that there were only these people, I waved my hand and sent my own sea boat out to block it as before.

Compared with the sea ships of the Wa Kingdom and the sea ships of the Tang Dynasty, it is simply the difference between cloud and mud. Not to mention anything else, in terms of material alone, the sea ships of the Japanese Kingdom are vulnerable.

Qin Ze looked at the large sea ships in front of him, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously showed a hint of sneer.

What is to convince people with virtue and what soldiers are not bloodless, is of no use to these people. It's easy to conquer the Wa Kingdom, as long as you make them feel fear in their hearts.

"All of you are commanded, that you shall sink all the ships in front of you within one hour." Qin Ze gave an order, and the guns on the five sea ships also began to reload one by one.

"Boom~Boom~"

One after another, the shells flew towards the sea ships in front of them like meteors, and in front of these shells, these sea ships of the Japanese Kingdom were like paper paste, but whenever they were hit, they directly became torn apart.

I'm afraid that the big brother king of Shanbei didn't expect that the Tang army would be so resolute this time, in the past, the Tang army would basically stop after a few shots, but today......

When they realized that the artillery had no intention of stopping, the ships immediately began to scatter and flee.

Only this time they didn't have to escape.

"All the ships obey the order and give me a pursuit." Qin Ze gave another order, and the army chased after him again.

The roar of each shell represents the fall of a ship that has begun to fight back when it finds itself unable to retreat. It's just that their bows and arrows can't hurt half of the Datang sea ship at all, even if they crash into it like crazy, in the end, they can only be torn apart by themselves.

In desperation, the Japanese soldiers began to choose to attack the Tang Sea ship with their bodies, but unfortunately, even if they rushed to the deck, they couldn't find where the entrance was, and in the end they could only be killed by the Tang army one by one......

I thought it would take an hour, but I didn't expect that I still thought too strongly about the Japanese country. All the ships of the Wa Kingdom have been turned into broken wooden planks, and now the entire water surface is full of Wa soldiers floating everywhere.

They thought that the Tang army would stop, but soon they found that the hot air balloon was slowly rising.

As long as they found the Japanese soldiers on the water, the Tang army would not hesitate to shoot with crossbow arrows, even if someone sank into the water, it was useless, as long as they showed up, they were waiting for only one death.

The sea began to turn blood red, and at this time, the big brother king of the mountain back finally couldn't sit still. Standing on the shore, he shouted at Qin Ze and the others.

There is no need for a translator, Qin Ze also knows what this guy is calling, but it doesn't matter at all.

Qin Ze patted the soldier who was controlling the artillery on the side, and then pointed to the eldest brother on the back of the mountain and said, "Did you see that?" Give me a shot. ”
