When Zhao Ji responded to Renduo Lingding, the others reacted and hurriedly said in unison: "I have confidence, and I will definitely teach Jiaozhi a heavy lesson!" ”

After an hour's work, the men and horses who went out to board the ship were completed, the horns of the wharf of Huangpu Port sounded in unison, and several horns and cannons sounded at the same time. This is a new ritual that Tong Wenjiang and the others came up with, and it really adds a lot to the army's expedition! Those who saw off the ship stood on the pier and waved goodbye to the fleet frequently, secretly wishing the expeditionary force a victory!

A large fleet of hundreds of boats followed a particularly large and sturdy Shenzhou, slowly lifted anchor, and left the wharf of Huangpu Port, where the people gathered on the wharf were still shouting for them to see them off.

For this expeditionary force, this was the first time that it had fought a foreign war by sea. Although the size of the army is not comparable to that of the army on land, they know that the expeditionary force is the main force in this war. Maybe the water thieves and sailors have been in a tug of war and fought a lot of battles before. But those are not national wars, but this time they are going to really deal with a country, and it is impossible to say that there is no feeling of excitement and apprehension in my heart.

For the common people, the Great Song Dynasty has not taken the initiative to fight abroad for hundreds of years. This time, for the sake of 500 ordinary merchants, the official family actually led the army to recruit in person, since ancient times, there has never been an emperor who really values the people so much, and the people are praying that the official family can win and return to the court!

If Zhao Ji personally won a great victory, then he could further consolidate the emperor's prestige and deter all possible opponents of the change. For this southern expedition, Zhao Ji spent a huge amount of money of 15 million yuan to arm this expeditionary force to the teeth. Two hundred warships, nearly 1,000 large and small cargo ships, and a fleet of ships sailed out of the mouth of the Huangpu River. Then the collective, under the leadership of the dragon boat flagship, turned the rudder to the south and sailed away.

"Holy! Our army marched south, why are there so many cargo ships with us? Li Chang never understood the meaning of Zhao Ji's slogan, and asked strangely as he looked at the cargo ships of the merchants who followed behind.

"Li Qing's family is the governor of this expeditionary force, such a thing should be asked by me! Hahaha! Zhao Ji smiled and patted Li Chang's arm.

"Governor Li, the main purpose of our expedition is to open up the Maritime Silk Road. As soon as the Silk Road is passed, won't you have to do business? Xiao Yiyuan said with a smile.

"Who do you do business with? Where there is a lot of chaos, can you do business? Li Chang said suspiciously.

"Of course, it's doing business with the expeditionary force. When the time comes, there will be too many robberies, and the number of our army will be small, so I am afraid that we will not be able to guard it, so we will sell it to those merchants. Hey. Bai Bo sneered.

"Hahaha." Everyone around laughed together, it was still cool like this, since it was not to annex him, you can't just teach them a lesson and come back, of course, you have to rob them of Jiaozhi first!

"Humph! You water thieves. The thief's heart does not change. Li Chang scolded angrily.

"Governor Li, if you don't rob it, it's a dereliction of duty." Xiao Yiyuan joked with a grin.

"When the time comes, we will all make a lot of money, Governor Li should not be red." White Wave then quipped.

"You, you. Hum! Weichen was unwell and went back to the cabin to rest first. Li Chang didn't know what to say, his face turned purple and blue, and then he said to Zhao Ji.

"Hmm. Governor Lee rests and goes. Zhao Ji held back a laugh and waved his hand.

After Li Chang left, Zhao Ji continued to smile and said, "Don't look at Governor Li as a literati, but he knows how to use tricks. If you don't recuperate, you may not be able to snatch you when the time comes. ”

"Hahaha." Everyone burst into laughter.

The fleet went all the way south along the coastline, the sea breeze was blowing, and the Songzi golden dragon flag on the mast was hunting.

"Father, look, the official family is on the march again!" On a fishing boat, a teenage boy shouted to his father as he watched intently at the expeditionary force's huge fleet.

"Yes. Listening to the storyteller of the Goulan, because the official family pacified the pirates in the East China Sea last time, we can go out to sea to fish with peace of mind. But the border people of Guangnan Road are often plundered by Jiaozhi, and the officials should go to beat them! A strong fisherman didn't care about fishing, stood up and looked at the expeditionary force's fleet and said.

"Not really. Mr. Wei said that the official family is to open up the maritime Silk Road. Our family was allowed to go to sea to fish because the government decreed that the coast should be fully opened to guide fishermen to go out to sea. Isn't this new ship of our family given by the government? The little boy disagreed with the strong man's words.

"You kid, this boat is not for nothing, you have to pay it back in installments. Let's go fishing. The strong man plans to fish hard and pay back the boat within two years.

"If only I could be in that big boat." The little boy looked at the huge dragon boat where Zhao Ji was and said.

"If you want to get on that big boat, you have to study hard and get into college." The strong man encouraged.

"I have to go to university." The little boy wisted.

"Certainly? If you want to get into university, you should stay at home and study hard. It's okay, why do you have to learn how to fish with you? You are not allowed to come tomorrow. The strong man scolded.

"Mr. said that just reading will only become a nerd, and to learn real knowledge, you have to understand it in life. The school has two days off in October, and the homework that Mr. gave us was fishing. The little boy said unconvinced.

The fleet sailed for half a month, and after two stops in Quanzhou and Guangzhou, it finally arrived at Qiongzhou (Haikou) in Lingnan. The expeditionary force will train here for another month to get used to the climate of the miasma.

The Qiongzhou Zhizhou Ten Thousand Soldiers led the civil and military officials and the people of all ethnic groups in Qiongzhou to welcome the arrival of the expeditionary force. Haikou Hong Kong is crowded with people, and no emperor has ever been to Lingnan Qiongzhou, which can almost be called a wild land.

The population of Qiongzhou is very small, and the immigration activities of developing Huguang have not yet extended to Qiongzhou, and most of the people in Qiongzhou are Li people, and for the Great Song Dynasty, this place is still a place of exile. The Emperor came to the Land of Exile, but he could not have imagined it.

In order to gain the support of the Li people, Zhao Ji got off the ship and announced in public that he would exempt Qiongzhou Island from paying taxes for one year. The emperor's favor made the people of Qiongzhou rejoice, and under the cheers of the people, Zhao Ji led the fire cavalry into Qiongzhou City, and the sailors were stationed in the newly built military port east of Haikou Port.

The fire cavalry was stationed in the garrison of the joint defense army of Qiongzhou City, and Zhao Ji still lived in the barracks. Wan Bing, the governor of Qiongzhou, led officials of all sizes and patriarchs of various ethnic groups to come to the audience to report on their work. Zhao Ji's style made them like it very much, if in the past, the emperor wanted to come to Qiongzhou, then they would be miserable. First of all, you have to offer treasures, and then you have to build a palace for the emperor. But Zhao Ji didn't use anything, and exempted them from paying taxes for a year.

"Knock on the Holy One, long live, long live, long live!" After entering the imperial tent, the officials of Qiongzhou knelt on the ground.

"Flat. How's everything I've done? Where have the armies of the other countries arrived? Zhao Ji didn't say anything, and eagerly wanted to know how the battle in Jiaozhi was going now.

"Shengshang, Wechen recruited a total of 200 of the best doctors of various clans, plus 600 doctors and 10 imperial doctors sent by the political affairs hall to form a medical battalion. After three months of training as military doctors, they are now able to deal with trauma and some common ailments. The doctors and soldiers communicated with each other and ran in, and several new drugs were configured to deal with the miasma. It is believed that it will be able to ensure that the officers and men of the expeditionary force will not be plagued by epidemics. Qiongzhou Zhizhou Wan Bing stated.

"Is there enough herbs?" Zhao Ji then asked. Although the expeditionary force brought enough herbs and medical supplies, they were all medicines such as gold sore medicine, and they may not be needed to deal with the diseases unique to this area.

"A large number of medicinal herbs have been stockpiled, and the finished medicines have also been stockpiled, which is enough for this expedition." Wan Bing hurriedly said. Wan Bing had already inquired about the temperament of this official family, and he didn't dare to slack off.

"Hmm. Very good. After the victory of this war, I will be rewarded for my deeds. You will definitely be credited with it. Zhao Ji praised.

"The political hall sent Guo Kui to command 50,000 troops, stationed in Guangyuan Prefecture, and confronted the Jiaozhi Gaoping army across the river. Duan Lianyi, the king of Dali, sent Yang Yizhen, a general, to command 100,000 troops to capture Zebian Mansion, and Jiaozhi retreated to the mountain pass as early as possible. Suni, the king of Zhenla, personally commanded 50,000 troops to attack Anzhou, and in order to deal with Zhenla, Jiaozhi allowed Niu Roar Man (Tai people) to establish a state. Niu roared to build Siam, and Jiaozhi joined forces with 60,000 troops, and a fierce battle broke out on the slope of the river on the east bank of the Lanjiang River in Anzhou, and Zhenla was defeated. With the support of Jiaozhi, the Siamese tribe marched south to Zhenla, defeating Zhenla six times in a month, and won the northeastern territory of Zhenla, and the troops reached the Nantong River. Li Rizun, the king of Jiaozhi State, was critically ill, and the crown prince Li Qiande succeeded to the throne, and the Empress Dowager Yang listened to the government, and sent the general Li Changjie to command 50,000 troops, and continued to attack the city in the south. The general of Champa established himself as king and declared himself a vassal to Jiaozhi. Tang Kang, the commander of the Qiongzhou Navy, took out a map and pointed to various locations on the map.

Zhao Ji looked at the map and was silent for a long time. didn't expect Jiaozhi to break the crisis of multi-front combat so quickly, and Zhao Ji's heart couldn't help but feel heavy. Dali has captured Zebian Province, but the Jiaozhi army has not been damaged, and the Zaozai Mountain Pass is the only passage in the Changshan Mountains that can connect Zebian and Jiaozhi. Jiaozhi retreated here, and no matter how much Dali's army was, I am afraid it would not be able to be used. Moreover, Dali's strategic goal has been achieved, and Dali's people may not attack again.

Zhenla was beaten by a small tribe and couldn't raise his head, I'm afraid that the Chenla Angkor regime has reached the extreme, and it is estimated that it is impossible to rely on them to fight back. This went all the way again.

The king of Champa was killed, and it is estimated that he was also a puppet supported by Jiaozhi. The way to Champa was also defeated. This went all the way again.

Now there are only two people left, the Great Song Dynasty, Lu and Hai. And Guo Kui's group is just to attract Jiaozhi's army, and they will not risk attacking Jiaozhi. After all, Cochin has the danger of mountains and rivers, and the terrain is advantageous.

"Holy Lord, are we the only ones left?" Bai Bolang said in surprise.

"What? White-eyed wolf scared? Zhao Ji teased.

"I'm dead, people are dead, and what are I afraid of. I'm afraid that I won't be able to complete the task assigned by the saint even if I die. Bai Wave shouted bluntly in a loud voice.

"Big brother, don't talk nonsense. In this battle, the Great Song Dynasty never thought about relying on other small barbarian countries to help. It's just a matter of letting them attract a little bit of cross-toe troops. As long as my Song Tianbing is here, Jiaozhi will be a clown who jumps off the beam. Xiao Yiyuan stepped on Bai Wa's feet, and after warning softly, he said some words full of pride loudly to cheer Zhao Ji up.

He Xiao Yiyuan is the pacification envoy and commander of this expeditionary force. This war was an important opportunity for him to make a name for himself and make a name for himself. finally got the favor of the official family and became a pacification envoy, but he didn't want the official family to retreat halfway.

"It seems that Xiao Qing's family is very confident! You are the appeaser, and you have full command of this war. Although it is said that I am a family member, I am just beating soy sauce. In this situation, how do Xiao Qingjia think the deployment should be adjusted? Zhao Ji saw Xiao Yiyuan's very confident appearance, and his heavy heart relaxed a lot.
