Taiwan County.

At this moment, Taiwan County is the same as before.

The last time Jiang Qin was captured, there were only three cities in Taiwan County, but now it has increased to six. The territory has also expanded a lot.

Almost all the cultivable plains in northern Taiwan are included. The farthest city in the south is also close to the foot of the central mountain range.

At the same time, the army has officially increased to 20,000 people, and since the army reached this number, the Iraqis no longer ordered to expand the army, and Taiwan's army will be controlled at about 20,000 in the future.

Of these 20,000 people, 5,000 were professional foot soldiers, responsible for defending the city, and the remaining 15,000 were naval troops, which were occasionally used as foot soldiers.

At this moment, the largest city in Taiwan County, Taiwan City Taishou Mansion.

In the study, Yi was reading the battle report.

This is a war report from the south, and with the advance of the army, the resistance of the Yi people in the south is getting stronger and stronger. Recently, there have been many large-scale wars.

The losses ahead, as well as the gains, also kept coming. The war in the south reminded the Iraqi of Jiang Qin.

Jiang Qin was born in Jiangdong and often sent troops to attack the Shanyue people, and had great experience in exterminating the Yi people in the deep mountains. In this second-class war, a lot of effort was made.

Jiang Qin sounded, and Yi Ji couldn't help but smile slightly.

The general eventually gave in, and after several months of stubbornness, joined the Taiwan Commandery.

At present, he is a lieutenant, commanding 3,000 soldiers, and is stationed in a city closest to the deep mountains in the south. Engage in a protracted war with the Yi people.

It is precisely because of the addition of this wise general that Taiwan County can now maintain its advantage and reduce its losses to a minimum.

As a result, Fang Dao also freed up his hands to train the navy, hoping to continue to improve the combat effectiveness of the navy.

After reading the war report from the south, Yi Zhi stood up.

Although it is already winter, the Yi still has a small habit of taking a nap.

Just as Yi was about to go to take a nap, a guard hurriedly walked in. Holding a roll of bamboo slips in his hand.

"Lord Gunshou, there's news from Jiangdong." As he spoke, the guard handed the bamboo slip in his hand to Yi Zhi.

"Oh?" Yi Yi's heart was shocked, and his sleepiness disappeared. Koto, good things are coming.

Quickly took the bamboo slip, Yi Yuan glanced at it, and the smile on his face became more and more vigorous. That's a good thing.

A long time ago, the Iraqi had already sent people to plant spies in Jiangdong. Because I know that sooner or later, Sun Quan will get involved in the waterway.

After waiting for so long, the opportunity finally came.

A hundred sea vessels? What a big pen, what's in it? Cloth? Gold? Coins? Iraq's heart was full of anticipation.

"Someone, pass the news to Fang Dao, and give the order to go on the expedition." Yi ordered.

"No." The guard replied and quickly walked out.

North of Taizhou City, at the ferry.

This ferry port was originally a small ferry, and it was also a ferry port for military and civilian use. Now it has developed into a large ferry crossing.

On the left, about 150 seagoing ships are moored, and the barracks are also stationed nearby. On the right, there is a way for fishermen to come and go.

The Han people are very adaptable, and Taiwan's aquaculture industry has developed rapidly in a matter of months. Now it has become one of the most important industries in Taiwan.

Some fishermen sail far away to catch big fish in remote places, while others are in the offshore waters.

It was noon, and there were few fishermen on the ferry.

Suddenly, a trumpet sounded from the direction of the camp. A moment later, the roar of war drums rang out.

"Another war?" Several people near the ferry looked at each other, and they all saw worry in each other's eyes.

Recently, the Yi people have been active and often fight. Quite a few people died. The people are already very familiar with the clarion call of war.

The army was quickly assembled, but it was different from what the people had imagined. Instead of exterminating the Yi tribe in the south, he took a boat in the north.

Soon got on the sea boat, and Yang Fan set sail.

About 150 ships sailed.

On the deck of one of the seagoing ships with the handsome flag of the word "Fang". Fang Dao was dressed in armor and looked up to the north.

There was a faint excitement in his eyes, sacking Jiangdong.

Fang Dao didn't have a good impression of Jiangdong, when he followed Gan Ning, he watched Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin show off their might on the Yangtze River, but they could only be shrunken turtles in Xiakou.

A disbelief in my heart has long been buried.

And this time to sack Jiangdong, Fang Dao is naturally full of energy.

With 150 warships, we must intercept these 100 seagoing ships.

One hundred and fifty sea vessels, including Liu Feng's original 55 sea vessels, could not be exposed, so they entered Taiwan's navy, and the rest were sea vessels built in Taiwan one after another.

You have one hundred and fifty ships, and the enemy has one hundred.

It seems that the strength is equal, and it is a little difficult to annihilate them all, but Fang Dao is very confident in his heart, because this is their home field and the sea.

A few days later, the north is about 1,000 kilometers away from Taiwan.

Hundreds of sea ships are piled up on a sea area, and the scene is spectacular. Some of the ships were intact, but some of them were charred and blackened, and the canvas had burned out.

Just half a day ago, Fang Dao, who had sailed for several days, discovered the traces of the Jiangdong sea ship and directly ordered it to be outflanked.

First, he ordered the archers to gas rockets, which burned the canvas of the Koto merchant ships, causing the Koto merchant ships to slow down, and then the boarding battle began.

Koto was a merchant ship this time, with about fifty sailors on each ship, no archers, and no soldiers. Under the leadership of Fang Dao, there was little resistance.

A whole hundred large ships were intercepted.

It took less than two hours. The hope in the hearts of Jiangdong monarchs and ministers, a hundred sea ships were captured by Fang Dao.

At this moment, Fang Dao was standing on the deck of one of the Jiangdong merchant ships, looking very excited.

Of these 100 large ships, 50 were empty. It may be that Sun Quan thought of transporting the largest number of war horses afterwards.

And the remaining fifty ships, the wealth is great.

Cloth, most commonly cloth. Then came the copper coins, a whole hundreds of millions of copper coins. Finally, there are two ships of Wu Dao.

Taiwan is still developing, and although its territory is expanding rapidly, the conditions in all aspects are not very good. In other words, very poor.

Cloth is the most lacking.

The second is copper money, which cannot be said to be lacking, but because there is no copper money in Taiwan at all, and the people trade in exchange for goods.

Now there are hundreds of millions of copper coins entering, which can greatly improve business.

The last Wu knife is also a sharp weapon. Taiwan's weapons are also very scarce, and they are just in use. In addition, the sailors on these 100 large ships, there are 5,000 people in total, and they are in the prime of life between the ages of 20 and 40, which is not a small strength.

Together, it's wealth, a lot of money. After Taiwan eats it, it can make up for its finances.

Fang Dao was naturally happy, but what pleased Fang Dao the most was that he let Sun Quan come to lose all his money once.

"Someone, send someone to Taiwan first, report to the county guard, and ask the county guard to prepare the warehouse. In addition, another group of people were sent to Jiangxia to report the good news to the lord. Finally, all the ships will be held in Taiwan. Fang Dao gave an order to the deputy general.

"No." The adjutant general answered the order and immediately went down to carry out the order.

……………… After getting the news of Jiangdong's departure to sea, Liu Feng waited for the news of Taiwan's return almost every day, and how much benefit he had gained from it.

Barely leave the house. It's just that today, Liu Feng has to go out.

Jiangxia, pasture outside Xiling City.

Liu Feng and Zhao Yun stood side by side, and both of them were dressed very normally. It's just that the face and eyes are not ordinary.

Because at this moment there were ten elephants standing in front of them.

At this moment, there are countless scarecrows erected in the huge pasture, and the last place of the scarecrow has more than ten big drums, and the big drums make an earth-shattering roar under the beating of the drummer.

And the ten elephants were slowly advancing under the control of the animal trainer with an earth-shattering roar.

Elephants look big, but they should be fast. But at the moment, these elephants are unusually clumsy, not only walking slowly, but sometimes slowly retreating.

Because of fear, fear of the drums.

But overall, at least moving forward.

Liu Feng and Zhao Yun were not calm because of this.

The elephant is a big reminder, there are almost no natural predators, and even a human sword may not be able to hurt the elephant. Therefore, it is not the sword that restricts the elephant from going to war.

It's the drums of war. The earth-shattering sound of the war drums is the biggest hidden danger.

And now watch the elephants march among the many scarecrows, roaring drums. Zhao Yun and Liu Feng can be said to have seen the hope of elephants entering the battlefield.

The two armies confronted each other, and twenty elephants stood at the forefront, how majestic and domineering. In addition to the momentum, it also means that Jiangxia has another weapon to win.

Whether it was Liu Feng, who was whimsical and proposed this method of warfare, or Zhao Yun, who was working hard for Liu Feng's idea, they were very excited.

"Hahahaha, it's just February and March, Zilong has trained these elephants in a good way, it's really unexpected, unexpected." Liu Feng laughed and said.

The voice was full of comfort. What is this, this is an elephant soldier.

"Hehe, it's thanks to Shishi. Although this group of elephants has not been on the battlefield, they are really well trained. It's easy to control. Zhao Yun said with a smile.

For two or three months, Zhao Yun was in Jiangxia while enjoying the breath of war horses, recruiting soldiers, and occasionally helping Liu Feng train elephant soldiers.

It's been a fulfilling life.

Compared with the life when he was in Xinye, he was conscientious and conscientious, and he was afraid that he would be disgusted by Liu Bei if he was careless.

Zhao Yun gradually integrated into Jiangxia, a force that was still steaming.

And cherish the current environment.
