Chapter 155: The Ambition to Conquer the Four Seas
Deng Long said with a smile: "It's not a difficult thing, you all know that the Great Song Dynasty has been in Chengping for more than a hundred years, and the ratio of men and women is out of balance, and many adult men can't marry their daughters-in-law." You go to the country of the Japanese slaves, where there is just a war, you might as well bring back some girls, so as to solve the urgent needs of the men of the Great Song Dynasty, wouldn't this be the best of both worlds! ”
These landlords glanced at each other and laughed: "It turned out to be this matter, rest assured that the owner of the village, we will do our best to bring back enough widows to ensure that the owner of the village is satisfied!" ”
Deng Long smiled in his heart, this matter had been planned a long time ago, and it was better to bring it up at this time, and the situation of Liangshan's singles could also be alleviated.
Next, everyone discussed the matter of merchant ships, and Deng Long proposed that Liangshan should build merchant ships, and in return, they would give up another cent of profits and a large number of widows.
In the end, Deng Long had to warn: "You know what we do, so some things are still good according to the rules, if you are too jumpy, Liang Shan will not manage it, understand?" ”
The landlord Lao Cai naturally agreed in a hurry, to put it bluntly, Liangshan is a mountain bandit, a group of disciplined mountain bandits, provoke others, kill you, and it is as simple as stepping on a caterpillar.
After all the landlords and old wealth went down, Li Jun stepped forward to see Deng Long.
Deng Long looked at Li Jun, who was much darker, and said with emotion: "The sea is weird and changeable, thank you for your hard work!" ”
Li Jun's nose was sour, it had only been more than a month or two, and hundreds of people had been killed and wounded, and he would have to float on the sea in the future, and he didn't know how many brothers would have to be killed and injured before he could conquer the sea.
Deng Long appeased Li Jun a few times, they are all smart people, Li Jun put away his sadness, and said: "This month is a thorough understanding of the situation at sea, pirates have killed thousands, there are Koreans, Great Song people, and there are many Japanese slaves, and the combat effectiveness of the sailors has also increased by more than one level, and a lot of money and property have been seized, all of which have been handed over to Mr. Jia Liang to run Dengzhou affairs."
Most of the captives have already been surrendered, and we have 5,000 men in total, and I am afraid that I will not be able to control any more, so those pirates who do not obey the discipline have been sent to the bottom of the sea to feed the fish.
At present, there are three loach ships, and more than 300 other large and small warships, and we are the masters of this sea area, and no pirate can match it. What are we going to do next, please ask my brother for instructions! ”
When Li Jun said his words, he was quite proud, whether it was the thousands of pirates he had exterminated, or the captured warship materials, Wu Yong had made it much easier for Wu to use in Dengzhou. Liangshan Shuishi is regarded as Liangshan's foreign force, the first group with output!
Deng Long nodded secretly, Li Jun is a man who conquered a country overseas, and it is a simple matter to deal with these unorganized pirates.
After praising Li Jun again, Deng Long said: "This sea area is not big, and there are relatively few countries. In addition, Goryeo's land trade routes were cut off by the Jurchens, and they could only take the sea route, so there were relatively few pirates here.
But our goal is not only this sea, but all the seas to the south, and we must set foot in it and control it. Now we are just a pre-war warm-up, and in the future, whether on land or on the sea, a big war will come to us.
So we've just started our journey, and there's still a long way to go. But once our goal is achieved, the four seas are another Liangshan water, let us gallop! ”
Li Jun's blood was boiled by Deng Long's words, and he said in a trembling voice: "Which step we want to go, please show my brother!" ”
Deng Long flicked his wide sleeves, took out a big flag embroidered by Hou Jian, and said passionately: "When all the ships on the sea are planted with black skull flags, when all the ships on the sea see this golden skull king flag of Liangshan and are willing to bow down, when there are no more pirates on the sea, it is the moment for us to celebrate with the crown!" ”
Li Jun, the second boy, and the second Ruan brothers immediately knelt on the ground, and said loudly with flushed faces: "No! ”
Deng Long picked up the five people, walked to the chair by himself, and said loudly: "To reach this point, the pirates must be cleaned up, and no one can be spared!" But wherever our Liangshan Master walked, it was the territory of Liangshan, and if he didn't accept it, he would sink it all, so he didn't need to think too much! ”
After saying these inspiring words, Deng Long kept silent.
Talking about money and money, it is natural that the dog-headed military division should appear, and Deng Long can't open this mouth in front of his brothers.
Wu walked down with a smile and said, "We have worked hard to eliminate pirates at sea, so naturally we can't do it in vain. Those merchant ships of the Great Song Dynasty did not have to collect money when they went out, but they had to hand over thirty percent of the goods or the equivalent of gold and silver when they returned.
Merchant ships outside the Great Song Dynasty, whether they went out or returned, as long as they encountered, half of the goods had to be handed over, which was not negotiable. And you have to form a caravan in a few days, you must protect the interests of your caravan as much as possible, and you can't let them suffer! ”
Li Jun smiled and said: "Don't worry, we still know this, our own caravan, how can we not let other people's families bully!" ”
Deng Long saw that Wu Yong finished talking about these dark things, and said with a smile: "Now that the sea area in the east has been cleared, it is a waste for these five thousand men and horses to stay, after you repair for a few days, plan to go south!" Opening up the trade road as soon as possible will help the cottage a lot!
Tong Wei and Ruan Xiaoer will stay in Dengzhou for a while, and I will make other arrangements, and when I finish this matter, I will join you in the south! ”
The five of them got up to receive the order, Deng Long asked them to go to the banquet in the evening, everyone gathered, and he and Wu Yong still had something to discuss, you go down and rest for a while.
After Li Jun left with the Four King Kongs, Deng Long asked, "What's the situation on Shamen Island, how are you investigating in the past few days?" ”
Wu Yong smiled calmly: "Everything has not changed, the island is still in charge of the soldiers, and the prisoners are in a precarious situation." Is my brother really going to take in these prisoners? ”
Deng Long sneered: "Not to mention what crimes these prisoners have committed before, just the years that they have been locked up on Salmon Island, their mentality will inevitably be extremely distorted. Therefore, it is absolutely not necessary to ask them to set foot on the land, and as for what they want them to do, let's all get together in the evening! ”
Wu Yong nodded and talked about other things in Dengzhou. This discussion lasted for half a day, and it was not until the time of the lamp that the two stopped and rushed to the banquet.
All the heroic wine brought from Liangshan was taken out and entertained to Li Jun and the five people, and the meat was naturally served continuously, and these few fierce generals floating on the sea were eaten heartily.
The dishes have five flavors, and the wine has passed three rounds. Deng Long stopped his chopsticks and said, "We have captured a few generals in Dulonggang, and I want to put them on Shamen Island to subdue the prisoners on those islands and collect them for my own use." Then they were sent to the Japanese slave kingdom and muddied the waters so that they could prepare for the future.
Tong Wei and Ruan Xiaoer are responsible for taking care of these people, and when the prisoners of Dulonggang deal with the prisoners of Shamen Island, I will send one person to come in a few days, and the two of you will escort them to the Japanese slave country and put them on the island, so that they can not return to the territory of the Great Song Dynasty. Remember, this matter must not be leaked for half a point! When you fall, you will do what Wu Yong said, and you must not make decisions privately! ”
Ruan Xiaoer and Tong Wei solemnly promised that they would complete the task, and then sat down.
After finishing the business, everyone began to really drink, Deng Long laughed and punched everyone, the atmosphere was lively and warm. (To be continued.) )
