After putting Yin Keer, a son of the Sinhalese royal family, on the throne, Yang Yi immediately asked Yin Kel to mobilize 10,000 troops and accompany him on his northern expedition to the country.

There are not many people in Sinhala who oppose this, because over the past hundred years, the Sinhalese country has invaded Sinhala many times, the military of the Sinhalese country is strong, and the Sinhalese have been defeated many times, with heavy casualties, and the enmity between the two countries can be described as deep as the sea.

If they can "unite" the powerful Yang family army to defeat the Zhulin Kingdom and destroy this great enemy, Sinhala will not be able to ask for it.

Of course, Inkel had no choice but to order troops, unless he didn't want the throne anymore.

A fleet of more than 10,000 troops and nearly 200 large and small ships set out from Gaolangbu Port and slaughtered the capital city of Thanjavur.

Zhu Yuan country, because of the different transliteration, is also called Zhu Luo country, Tang Dynasty monk Xuanzang in the "Tang Dynasty Western Regions Chronicles" called Zhu Liye country. The capital city of Thanjavur is located in the heart of the Cauveri Delta on the southern coast of India.

Since the collapse of the Gupta Dynasty, India has been in a state of division for five or six hundred years, with many small kingdoms, dotted all over the place, including one or twenty kingdoms such as Pallava, Shalouqi, Qu Zheluo-Brottihara, Zhaohan, and Zhuran;

If you count the independent tribes, it is difficult to count for a while, and in the original history, it was not until the arrival of the Mongol army and the emergence of the Mughal dynasty that India reappeared unified.

Among the many kingdoms of all sizes, South India has flourished since the accession of Rajandroja I to the throne of Rajendra I a hundred years ago, and has entered its heyday after Rajendra I ascended the throne, becoming the most powerful state on the Indian continent.

Its power continued to expand northward. After defeating the kingdom of Pala in the Bengal region, he occupied the lower Ganges region for a time.

In order to snatch commercial shipping routes in the Indian Ocean. He even crossed the Indian Ocean and conquered the Malay Peninsula in Srivijaya and Kalimantan.

From Rajendra I to the present Prolari I. Sixty years have passed since the reign of three kings, and although it has slowly declined, it is still the most powerful kingdom in mainland India.

It is about a two-day voyage from Sinhala's Gaolang to Thanjavur, the capital of the Zhulin Kingdom, which is very close.

The Tamil Kingdom to the north of the island had long been a vassal state of the Sultan State, and as soon as the fleet entered the waters of the Tamil State, there were warships of the Tamil Kingdom that tried to intercept it. As a result, after seeing the giant of the Yang family's fleet on the sea, he didn't fire a single arrow and fled in a hurry.

This time, Yang Yi was not in a hurry, he was going to give Zhu Yuan enough time, let him gather all the warships that could be used, and fight a naval battle with himself, so as to annihilate the sea power of Zhu Yuan Country at one time, so as not to make waves again after he returned to China in the future.

On the flagship deck. Yang Yi and Le Tao, Shi Ran and other generals began to discuss the battle plan.

Shi Ran said: "My lord, if Prolori I does not fight with us at sea, but adopts harassing tactics, I am afraid that it will be a little inappropriate for us to slow down the ship." The general thought that it would be better to take a quick approach. ”

Le Tao pinched his chin and thought for a moment and said: "This possibility does exist, but it is not large, Thanjavur City is located in the lower reaches of the Gaoweri River. It was very close to the coastline, and if Providery I gave up naval warfare. Our warships will be able to strike his capital along the Cauverry River, and Prolari must know this very well. ”

Meng Yunshan said, "I agree with General Le's opinion. Judging from the information we have, Prolari I is a stubborn man, and we have made it clear that it is unlikely that Prolari will adopt evasive tactics until he has experienced defeat. ”

Le Tao knocked on the location of Thanjavur on the map and said: "If Prolori I really avoids fighting, our fleet will stop at the mouth of the Cauveri River, and then the infantry will land and attack the city of Tamjavure." I don't believe it, and Glolari I doesn't even want the capital. ”

Shi Ran said: "If you land and fight, the Zhu Yuan country will domesticate more than 40,000 war elephants, and the number of troops will be more than 100,000, which should not be underestimated. ”

"Forty thousand war elephants." Yang Yi laughed when he heard this, "I hope that Prolari I will send all 40,000 war elephants at one time, hahaha, you don't have to think so much, just kill them." ”

Seeing that Yang Yi said easily, Le Tao and the others' expressions also relaxed, noting that the country has more than 100,000 troops, but due to continuous external expansion in the past hundred years, it has become hostile with surrounding countries, and more than 100,000 troops have to be stationed at the border, and the most people who can stay in the capital area are tens of thousands of horses.

In addition, the capital city and the Sriwijaya have a common weakness, the capital is close to the sea, and there is a river that leads directly to the city.

Napoleon said that the axiom was only within the range of the cannon. Let's drive the gunboats to the city and bombard, but we can't win, that's just unreasonable.

After a day of sailing, the fleet entered the Manar Sea, that is, the north of Shiran Island, and could see a large mangrove forest on the seashore from a distance, the scenery was very beautiful, and the Qing Niang people saw the trees growing in the sea for the first time, and they couldn't help but be surprised.

"Brother Yang, how do these trees grow in the sea? It's weird. Qing Niang ran to pull Yang Yi to the side of the boat, pointed to the mangrove forest on the shore and asked.

"Qing Niang, the world is full of wonders, so I'm going to take you out to have a look." Yang Yi looked indifferent.

"Aren't ordinary trees dying if they are soaked in water for a long time? Brother Yang, tell me why these trees can grow in the sea. Qing Niang's pair of crescent moons fluttered, looking at him with blank eyes. Adella and Zhao Qian were almost the same, waiting for his answer.

"You want to know?" Yang Yi glanced at them with a smile, and then tapped his cheek with his hand.

"Don't think! Do you say it or not? Qing Niang immediately made a vicious appearance and began to threaten with force. It's just that she, a picturesque person, no matter how much she pretends to be fierce, makes people feel more cute.

But someone was very intimidated, rolled his eyes, and suddenly fainted, and his body fell crookedly towards Adella, Adella didn't dare to let him really fall, so he had to hold it, a pair of crisp breasts against his back, soft.

Qing Niang didn't follow, and she twisted when she went up.

I endure. I endure, I endure. Yang Yi finally held back, but he didn't open his eyes. Anyway, Qing Niang can't really destroy the "flower" with a hot hand.

"Hmph, Brother Yang is the most scoundrel." Qing Niang couldn't, so she had to quickly tap her watery cherry lips on his cheek. Yang Yi closed his eyes and coughed lightly twice, and soon his cheek was tapped by two dragonflies.

Well, this is about the same, he "woke up" satisfied, and saw that the three girls had a faint blush on their faces, like peach blossoms, and saw him coming. Qing Niang began to put on a "fierce" appearance again.

"Well, this kind of mangrove is salt-loving, and it only grows in the intertidal zone, which refers to the seaside tidal flats that are submerged by the sea at high tide and exposed at low tide. Mangrove forests have many characteristics, and its roots are divided into respiratory roots and pillar roots. Respiratory roots are those tree roots that grow upwards and are exposed to the water at high tide and help the woods with gas exchange, so they are not afraid of flooding."

"Wait. Brother Yang, do you want to breathe in the woods? ”

"Of course, both animals and plants need to breathe. There is also a special place about this mangrove forest. Its seeds can sprout into small saplings in the fruit of the tree, and then break away from the mother plant and fall into the silt to grow. This is something that no other tree on land can do;

Mangrove trees are usually short. However, the semi-mangrove forests that accompany the edge are very tall, such as hibiscus and silver-leaved trees. These trees are also salt-tolerant and hard-wooded, making them good materials for shipbuilding and furniture. ”

"Brother Yang, wait, people have to write it down." After Qing Niang finished speaking, she lifted the quilt skirt and ran back to the cabin.

"Qing Niang, don't worry, that's all I know, it's gone."

"Remember that too, so that you don't forget it later." Qing Niang's fluttering figure quickly disappeared into the cabin, only the sound was curling, and the princess of Qin State also entered the cabin to see Qing Niang writing a book.

Only Adela can't go, someone is still in her arms.

Yang Yi straightened up, hugged her with his backhand, and took pity on her, in the accustomed sea breeze, her intoxicating body fragrance was filled, and her fluttering skirt was like a light cloud.

Adella was tired of being in his arms and asked softly, "Master, there are so many beauties in the Sinhalese palace, haven't you taken a fancy to one?" ”

Yang Yi pinched her chin and said slowly: "Once the sea was difficult to turn into water, except for Wushan, it is not a cloud." ”

"Hee-hee"

"Adella, you have also learned badly, and you dare to ridicule me, master."

"No, although the people here are a little darker, there are indeed beauties in the palace."

There is indeed no shortage of beauties in India, but

"Dare you say no?" Yang Yi's palm around her small waist slid down, and the stiff and fragrant buttocks suddenly fell into his hand, which was warm and fragrant, soft and elastic for a while.

"Master, don't"

"Anything else?"

"Don't be here" Adella's voice was as thin as a mosquito, her cheeks were as red as drunk, and the intoxicating body fragrance on her body became more and more intense.

"Hahaha"

The next morning, before the mist had completely cleared, the fleet had entered the Pauk Strait between the southern cape of India and the island of Shilan, when it saw a dense crowd of warships appearing ahead, sails looming in the confused white fog.

On the side of the Yang family's fleet, Huang Feng, the star officer on duty, immediately issued an order to prepare for battle, and the rumbling drums suddenly resounded in the sky, and the sailors on each ship shouted loudly and hurriedly ran to their combat posts, and the scene looked a little chaotic.

Yang Yi and Le Ran almost rushed into the flag-like command room at the same time.

"What's the matter, didn't you send a Sinhalese boat to explore the way ahead? How could it not be possible to detect the enemy's fleet in advance? Yang Yi asked.

"My lord, the fog is thicker, and I don't know that the boat exploring the way ahead will be surrounded by the enemy."

Yang Yi didn't say anything more, and immediately began to command the fleet to list the battle formation.

The naval division of the country is not bad, the time and place are all occupied by them, and the fog is inexhaustible for a while, which is naturally more beneficial to the enemy army with small ships and strong mobility, and this Baoke Strait is also an excellent ambush location
