"The King...... cough cough cough ...... Bohai's temptation of the Chu navy is enough, and after that, the fleets of the major families should be guided even more, cough cough...... In addition, the shipyards of the skillful craftsman battalion should also increase their investment, not only to support each family, but also to increase the control of the maritime power of each family, and they must not be allowed to raise and build ships on their own. Guo Jia instructed Cao Cao.

"Fengxiao, you rest first, there won't be any large-scale battles for the time being, and when you really want to fight Han Chu, you will have to contribute." Cao Cao hurriedly pushed Guo Jia back.

Originally, Guo Jia was sick, Cao Cao came to see him today, how did he know that as soon as Guo Jia saw Cao Cao, he talked about business again.

"The king can rest assured, this old problem of the minister is like this every year...... Just get through it, it's not a big deal. Guo Jia said with a pale face.

In the history without the White Rabbit effect, Guo Jia died this year - on the way back after Cao Cao's northern expedition against Wuhuan, Guo Jia, as Cao Wei's most important adviser, died of illness.

However, now not only did Cao Cao not take the initiative to fight Wuhuan in the north, but the slave hunting teams of the major wealthy families turned Wuhuan upside down, and ...... The separation of the Han court and Cao Cao's luck brought a lot of trouble to Cao Wei, but it also made Guo Jia no longer have to bear the pressure of "luck grafting".

Even if Guo Jia used the "general trend" to Baitu before, from seven aspects, it is easier to guide the Baitu forces to have disadvantages, while Cao Cao's side is more likely to have advantages, which also greatly overdraws the lifespan, but in general, after the two are offset, Guo Jia's current health is better than that of the same period in history.

Although he doesn't look good now because he is sick, it doesn't look like he's going to die this year......

As soon as he saw Cao Cao and made a suggestion, Guo Jia even seemed to have good energy - a month ago, in mid-May, the navy of the Chu State was sunk a main ship!

Wei Guoming expressed regret on his face, but he was very excited behind his back.

This is the first time in the Bohai Sea chaos in the past two years that the main ship of the Chu Navy has been reduced.

The results of this battle are the Chen, Xun, and Zhong families...... The five Haikou supported by the three families, the entrance and exit of the Bohai Sea and the East China Sea, that is, the middle of the Donglai and the fried seafood peninsula, "ambushed" a wave of Ling Tong!

There was naturally nowhere to hide on the sea, but when Ling Tong found out that the fleet was surrounded, it was too late.

Initially, the 1,700 navy led by Ling Tong pursued a large sea pirate supported by the Zhong clan, only to fall under siege by four other sea pirate fleets......

As a fleet supported by the top families, several pirates are not only well-equipped with ships, but have also figured out tactics similar to battle lines - although they use the inconvenient "modified white bus" as a means of long-range attack, but the principle is the same.

In contrast, the "new" main ships of the Chu navy are dominated by giant crossbows in the long-range aspect.

In the end, the combined fleet of the Haikou Navy, under the tactics of being surrounded by wolves, achieved the result of sinking one main ship and four frigates of the Chu Navy, and capturing three frigates.

Ling Tong had no choice but to lead the army to break through all the way and retreat to the vicinity of Donglai East Port.

Although he encountered the North Sea Fleet on the way and was faintly hostile to the Chu Navy, after Lü Meng saw the flag clearly, he immediately sent troops to lead him, and did not break out into a direct conflict with the North Sea Fleet.

The same is the main ship, there are no less than 30 Haikou main ships sunk in the Bohai Sea, and one-third of them are the Yellow Dragon warships improved by the Wei State "plagiarism".

The pain in the flesh is also more painful for the major wealthy families of the Wei State, and even the Wei State has changed the "subsidy" to the fleets of each family from cutting leeks at high prices.

At the beginning, Wei still made money selling ships, but now it ...... I already had to lose a little to trade with each other.

For example, the Huanglong ship, as a new type of main ship, even if it is a first-class family, if it is not very "trenched" economically and has a lot of liquidity, it will hurt if you want to buy it, and even use the land as collateral.

The other warships of all classes are also very expensive......

However, the "meddling" of the Chu navy in the Bohai Sea caused the Haikou's income to drop significantly, and it was even better to directly organize "plate armor mercenaries" to go to the north to do things.

In order to maintain its influence at sea, Wei not only lowered prices all the way, but has even begun to subsidize and provide loans to maintain the influence of "Wei people" on the Bohai Sea.

It seems that Wei has lost some, but in fact, a large amount of income from these Haikou fleets eventually flowed into Wei, indirectly enhancing national strength.

What Guo Jia said is exactly what happened - in addition to strengthening his control over the Bohai Sea and obtaining considerable benefits, it is also because...... If we continue to lower the profit margin of each family supporting the Haikou at a high price, I am afraid that someone will soon start to boldly relaunch the plan of "privately built warships".

This grand strategy of launching the wealthy families in the north and turning into a pack of wolves was originally conceived by Guo Jia and Cao Cao, but today, Guo Jia has to admit that he can see the drawbacks more and more......

Moral deficit is one thing, or rather...... Is it the essence?

Even if there is the idea of "respecting the king and destroying the people" as a moral basis for plundering foreign races, but because this fig leaf is too reluctant, this matter has also suffered a lot of criticism among the major families of the Wei State, and some families have even split because of this.

On the other hand, it is probably because of this kind of moral play that many families ...... In particular, the newly emerging wealthy families began to become more and more difficult to control.

Guo Jia never thought that there would be such crazy people who dared to bet on family inheritance, and this madness was still spreading, and more and more wealthy families began to dare to bet on family inheritance for higher returns.

Therefore, Guo Jia also began to remind Cao Cao that he must pay attention to this aspect of control!

……

After Ling Tong's battle report was sent to Jinling, Bai Tu was in the court and focused on discussing the matter.

Although a main ship was sunk in this battle, in terms of losses, in fact, the Chu navy was not injured at all.

It's just that the pirates have been beating them before, and now they have been surrounded and sunk a main ship all of a sudden, although it is the result of fewer enemies and more enemies, but it also makes people feel that the situation in the Bohai Sea has entered the next corner.

In the court, the Chu State even ordered the navy to be more "cautious" in the Bohai Sea because of this "cowardly" decision, and to a certain extent, it made concessions in the control of the Bohai Sea and even the fried seafood peninsula, which also made the pirates even more happy, and even had more "ideas" about the Chu navy......

Of course, in order to get by on face, Chu State will naturally not simply admit it, but at the same time make further sanctions against the "culprit"!

As the "culprit", Liu Zhang paid a lot of price to calm the "anger" of the Chu State......
