Chapter 56: The General
No matter what kind of situation the king of Xuzhou made the decision, the voluntary surrender of a state king was a great thing for the Han emperor. Therefore, the Emperor of the Han Dynasty agreed to the request of the King of Xuzhou to surrender to the prince and named him the Surabaya County of the Xuzhou Thorn History Department of the Duke of Surabaya.
It's just that Yuzhou and Xuzhou do not border, and there is Liangguo County in Yanzhou in the middle, so the Han Emperor sent envoys to Yanzhou, asking the king of Yanzhou to cede Liangguo County to Xuzhou's Assassin History Department. The tone was tough, and there was a great intention that the king of Yanzhou would immediately send troops to attack if he did not agree.
The king of Yanzhou asked for help from his allies, but the Youzhou army was still out of reach of the whip outside the Shanhai Pass, but the "king of Qingzhou" thought that it was not appropriate to start a war with the imperial forest army at this time: "We have just fought with Xuzhou, and our troops have suffered serious damage. And the Sizhou army advanced all the way, and the occupation of Yuzhou did not suffer much loss, but absorbed the Yuzhou army, it is the time when the soldiers are strong, we should not provoke the emperor at this time, don't you see that the Yangzhou army has withdrawn from Linhuai County? Now that the emperor owns the land of Sanzhou, we can only have the strength to resist the Imperial Forest Army by receiving the Youzhou Army into the customs as soon as possible. Anyway, the Chu County of Xuzhou, which Yanzhou has already occupied, and the small Liang County is not suitable for defense, so it will be ceded to Xuzhou first, and then he will make other plans later. ”
After listening to the persuasion of the "King of Qingzhou", the king of Yanzhou weighed the pros and cons and finally ceded Liangguo County to the Han Emperor, so ★ the three states were connected and returned to the direct jurisdiction of the central government.
At this time, no one wanted to be the first bird to be targeted by the Han Emperor, Youzhou was afraid of forcing Jizhou to call the Han Emperor to take advantage of the fisherman, so he ordered the army to leave Shanhaiguan and withdraw outside the pass; The relieved Jizhou incorporated the troops supported by Yuzhou while holding the Shanhaiguan Pass and sending heavy troops to guard the north bank of the Yellow River.
At this time, Xuzhou was already directly under the Han Emperor, and the Xuzhou Assassin had also taken office, and the Yangzhou army immediately retreated to Guangling to stabilize its enclave north of the Yangtze River. The Qingzhou Army is also satisfied with the harvest of Langya County, and it is an unexpected joy that it does not have to face Yangzhou directly.
The Han Emperor was too busy digesting and annexing the two states to continue the war. As a result, after the short and violent conflict caused by Qingzhou in the north of the Han Dynasty, the power structure underwent unexpected changes.
Qingzhou and Yangzhou cannot be separated by land, and there is no need for fighting on the sea. The warships of both sides began to retreat, each returning to its own port. Yangzhou was busy running the port of Guangling, and Qingzhou needed to rebuild the Langya fleet.
In the Qingzhou Palace, Gangzi was summoned by Wei Yu again.
Last time on the Penglai, Wei Yu gave Gangzi a wink and was thrown on the wall by him, making her lose face. Seeing Gangzi's serious face this time, he obviously had a lot of resentment in his heart.
lost the east corner, harvested the mulberry elm, did not escape under the seduction of Wei Yu, and how could there be a touching words to attract the kiss of the sister. It's okay for a beautiful boss to be ambiguous, and it's okay to be yy. Gangzi didn't dare to do anything wrong. The more I went deeper into Wei Yu's circle, the more I felt that Wei Yu's background was deep. From a Donglai Navy lieutenant general to a person who really controls the entire Qingzhou, he has become one of the thirteen powerful figures in the Han Dynasty, but Wei Yu, who has this right, is willing to give up the right he got and be the "eagle dog" of the imperial court.
Everything is for the unification of the Han Dynasty, this spirit is indeed noble and commendable, but Gangzi thinks that when he stands in the position of Wei Yu, he must firmly hold this acre and three points of land and kill it will not be fingered.
Wei Yu is a saint? A rose with a stinger is about the same. Unless this girl first takes off her clothes to show her purest side to her brother, her brother can reluctantly arrange a position for her as a second lady in her brother's harem in a responsible manner, otherwise she will seduce her with beauty. Brother has to hold it, and he can't lift these pants when he takes them off.
Goodbye to Wei Yu today, Gangzi has a cowhide face, and Wei Yu's judge-like face should not be seen. He saluted and said with a smile: "Good morning, my lord, I am in such a hurry to call the lowly position, is it time to add an official to the knighthood, this official rank has been promoted so quickly recently." It's really a bit uncomfortable to be humble. ”
Wei Yu sat there calmly and said coldly: "Since you are idle and promoted quickly, I will not promote you this time." ”
Sure enough, women can't be provoked, and revenge comes so quickly. But is my brother a person who is taken advantage of casually?
"I'll take credit for that to my lord for the time being. In addition, there is a great joy to report to the adults. ”
"What's the happy event? Listen, if you don't please me with your happy event, don't blame me for curing you. Wei Yu stared at Gangzi, his eyes revealing the pleasure of imminent revenge
Gangzi smiled brightly: "My lord, the hard-sail three-masted battleship has been successfully built, and now it has been named Qingzhou fourth-class battleship, and it can be built in large quantities just by waiting for the supply of firecrackers from Jihuo Island." I don't know if the adults will be satisfied with this news, but if they are not satisfied, they will go back and sell the warship into a merchant ship. ”
"Don't!" Wei Yu, who was waiting for Gangzi to finish speaking, excused himself from being dissatisfied with finding some trouble for him, immediately stood up excitedly after hearing that the hard-sail three-masted battleship had been successfully built, "You said that the hard-sail three-masted battleship was really built?" ”
"Of course, after the Penglai ship was parted, it is estimated that the adults were thinking about the law and wanted to find trouble with their humble duties, and they did not build a hard-sailed three-masted battleship, where did they dare to come to this Qingzhou Palace."
"Hahaha......" Wei Yu changed his serious smile and said, "You kid, you are bold on the surface, you are obsessed, but in fact, you are like a monkey, maybe one day you will be out of my hand, if it weren't for the fact that there are no decent talents under my hands, I really don't dare to use you." Give, this is General Pingtao's promotion book, the big seal has long been stamped, I came to you today to discuss the issue of Langya Port, are you interested in being transferred to the commander of the Langya fleet? ”
Langya County has a flat terrain, many rivers and convenient transportation, if you use Langya Port to develop trade, although the economic income is not as good as Donglai and Guangling, it is much better than Jimo. For people who like to make money, Admiral Langya is a fat shortage, Gangzi likes money, but he is not blindfolded by gold coins.
To the south of Langya is Guangling Port, which now belongs to Yangzhou. In the past, when the Langya fleet was still there, Gangzi was worried about Jimo, but if he was transferred to Langya as the admiral this time, he would be able to play hide and seek with the Yangzhou Navy all day long.
What's more, not to mention the economy, in terms of water ripple conditions, Jimo Port is much better than Langya Port, and the deep-water port can allow larger warships to dock, and if the water depth of Langya Port does not expand the dock to the sea, it is estimated that docking British third-class warships will be a problem. Gangzi's goal was a giant treasure ship, and only the port of Jimo was suitable as a base for such a warship.
Gangzi told Wei Yu what he thought, and Wei Yu, who was paranoid and fanatical about the battleship, nodded in agreement with Gangzi's statement. Under the auspices of Gangzi, Jimo Shipyard has formed a complete hard sail design and construction system, and it is indeed not easy to relocate. But she really doesn't have anyone at hand who is qualified to be the admiral of the Langya fleet, and playing fleet confrontation with the Yangzhou Navy is not something ordinary people can do.
However, the Guangling fleet is being rebuilt rapidly, and the reconstruction of the Langya fleet is also urgent. So Wei Yu finally made up his mind and said to Gangzi: "I appoint you as the commander of the Qingzhou Yellow Sea Fleet, the commander-in-chief of the Jimo fleet and the Langya fleet, the Jimo fleet still relies on Jimo Port to raise its own funds, and all the expenses of the Langya fleet are provided by the Qingzhou Palace." ”
According to Wei Yu's meaning, the status quo of Jimo Port remains unchanged, and the Jimo fleet is nominally the army of Qingzhou, but in fact it is Gangzi's private army. And Langya Port, Wei Yu didn't dare to do this, the personnel and finances of the Langya fleet were under the responsibility of the Qingzhou Palace, this fleet belonged to Qingzhou, Gangzi did not have the ownership of this fleet, but had the right to command.
With an extra naval fleet in his hand, he doesn't need to pay his own salary, and this kind of good thing has just been hurriedly agreed. Although the Langya fleet will be taken back by the Qingzhou Royal Mansion at any time, in line with the principle of being a monk for a day and hitting the clock for a day, this fleet will definitely be the vanguard and vanguard in the naval battle in the future.
The command of the Langya fleet was determined, and then the formation of the fleet was formed.
Three-masted battleships, Wei Yu is inclined to the Qingzhou fourth-class battleship that has just been designed, but there are not enough firecracks, so he can only continue to use soft-sail three-masted battleships. The current Donglai Navy has expanded the number of three-masted warships to fifteen, and there is no need for the Donglai Fleet on the Bohai Sea to leave too many main fleets, so Wei Yu transferred five three-masted warships to the Langya Fleet, and repeatedly told Gangzi that these five three-masted warships could not leave the Yellow Sea under any circumstances.
All that's left are brig-class battleships, sloop-class battleships, and a large number of auxiliary vessels.
"In the battle with the Langya ship, the Dahan V-class battleship performed very well, and I decided to order 100 Dahan V-class warships, 200 high-speed dhows and other auxiliary ......ships for the Langya fleet."
This time it was a big business, Wei Yu ordered nearly 500 ships of various types for the Langya fleet at one time, and they were slaughtered by Gangzi. It's just that I don't know if Qingzhou's finances can support the reconstruction of the Langya fleet, but behind Wei Yu is the Han Emperor, Sizhou has eaten two states, it is the time for a big money, who will he slaughter?
It's just that there are 100 Dahan 5-class warships in the order...... Gangzi said in embarrassment: "My lord knows that the fifth-level battleship of the Great Han needs my group of elves to deal with the ribs, but in the last few days, I have to take them back to their hometown for a period of time and recruit more elves to come." 100 Han fifth-level warships can't be rushed out in a short time, do you think 100 Qingzhou fifth-level battleships can? When I bring back more elves, we'll trade them in. ”
Wei Yu asked, "You want to leave?" ”
"Yes! I have to go to the elven homeland, where there is no teleportation or communication, so the adults will not be able to find me. There are some things that I have to ask for help from adults, and it will take a little time for the stability of the fire island, I believe that when I come back next time, I can produce a large number of firecrackers, and the location of the fire island is secret, I am not too worried; I'm worried about Albatross Island, and in the days to come, the Pacific Ocean will definitely not be at peace, and many people will pay attention to Albatross Island, and I hope that you will be able to form a fleet to deter those who try to do wrong. (To be continued.) )
