After a busy night, by dawn the next day, the warships on the Jeju New Port Pier were once again preparing to set sail for the expedition.

However, this time Wang Ze only prepared to set off with all the cavalry and the blue wolf battalion that was good at jungle warfare, and the rest of the team still stayed on Jeju Island to prevent the dogs of Baekje and Silla, which had suffered heavy losses before, from jumping off the wall to retaliate.

"General Xu, this time the safety of Jeju Island is entrusted to you!" Wang Ze, who was dressed in military uniforms on the dock, hugged his fist at Xu Ning and the others who came to see him off, and then said, "We are just one step ahead, maybe I will see you in Changzhou after a while!" ”

Hearing Wang Ze's satisfaction with himself, Xu Ning's eyes lit up, and he immediately hugged his fists and saluted back: "Although the little marquis can rest assured, the people here on Jeju Island are fierce, and the soldiers are all brave warriors, if the people of Baekje and Silla dare to attack, they will definitely have no return!" ”

"Generals, please protect the safety of the little marquis, there will be a period later!" Immediately, Xu Ning saluted Ji Xiang, Zhu Bofu, Cheng Hu, Li Niangzi, Xu Ti and others behind Wang Ze.

After Li Hongyu Li Niangzi entered the cavalry team, she was a subordinate of Ji Xiang, and her current military rank is cavalry captain, and this time she also went to Pingmachuan with the army; And Xu Ti once again handed over the coastal defense of Jeju Island to Du Sheng, and also returned to the battle sequence under Sun Xing.

At this time, there were civil officials such as Fan Wenzhong on the port, and even He Bo came to see Wang Ze off, and it was quite reluctant to see everyone apart one by one again.

At this time, Yang Ku, who had been on the boat to arrange things before, also stepped off the boat and said to He Bo, Fan Wenzhong, Xu Ning and others: "Rest assured, next time we meet, we will not be far away, I think everyone can go to Changzhou after a while!" Immediately, Yang Ku said to Wang Ze again, "Little Hou Ye, let's almost leave, there are a lot of winds and waves during this time, that is, these days are better!" ”

Seeing this, everyone no longer delayed Wang Ze's trip, and waved goodbye!

"Oh, it's a pity that the fifth uncle is now newly married, and he can't follow us to General Bingchang, haha, let's accumulate some more military exploits in Pingmachuan at that time, so that we can compare him!" Zhu Bofu patted Cheng Hu's shoulder and squeezed his eyebrows on the side.

Cheng Hu said in a humble voice: "I think if Da Lang told the fifth uncle in person, he would definitely go to war with him!" Although the fifth uncle has a kind face, he has never let go since he killed someone! ”

Zhu Bofu also suddenly remembered that when they confronted the Japanese people on the front line in Changzhou in the past, the ruthlessness that Yan Xiaowu showed was simply slaughtering the village and destroying the households, whether it was the Japanese army or the Japanese people, as long as there was a little hostility, it would sweep the past.

In those years, the White Wolf Battalion was besieged by Su and I Yongde several times, but they were all dyed with Yan Xiaowu's light, and the level of hatred value was high!

Here Zhu Bofu and Cheng Hu were next to each other at the back of the crowd, and after the others walked along the gangplank to the boat, they also began to walk up, and suddenly heard someone shouting behind them.

Cheng Hu immediately said meaningfully: "It shouldn't be that the fifth uncle chased after me!" ”

As soon as Zhu Bofu turned around, he immediately spoke: "Cheng Erlang, you crow's mouth, sure enough, the fifth uncle chased after you, but why did he chase after you when you said that this big wedding was happy!" Doesn't Da Lang always call this the first of the four great joys? ”

At this time, Wang Ze also saw that Yan Xiaowu was chasing after him on a horse in the distance, and he came to the dock after a short time, and even the new clothes on his body were still on, so he had to get off the boat again to appease Yan Xiaowu.

"Little Hou Ye, now that the Ezo people are provoking trouble, how can this be less of me!" Although he came on horseback, Yan Xiaowu was still a little out of breath.

"In this case, Captain Yan obeys the order, I order you not to leave Jeju Island for half a step this year, and you must let your daughter-in-law conceive a child during the New Year!" Wang Ze ordered with a glance, which immediately made Yan Xiaowu dumbfounded.

When he heard Wang Ze's serious order, he thought that Wang Ze was willing to let him follow, but who knew that he had given himself such an order.

In this way, Yan Xiaowu must have been a little reluctant, and in the end, the sheep withered and came to persuade him, and Yan Xiaowu said to Wang Ze with tears: "Although I can't go with the little marquis this time, I still ask the little marquis to transfer me to set off as soon as possible!" ”

Everyone tossed again, and then said goodbye to the crowd of people who saw them off and sailed away.

Everyone on the warship didn't have a good rest last night, so they all went back to their respective cabins to rest, Wang Ze felt that the cabin was too stuffy, so he stood on the deck facing the wind, and the sheep in plain Confucian clothes beside him stood aside, also looking at the scenery in the distance.

"Mr. Yang, now that the war in Weishui is unlikely to break out again, I want my father and mother to come here in the East China Sea together, and the family can be reunited, what do you think?" Looking at Jeju Island and the seagulls flying in the sky, Wang Ze suddenly asked the sheep to wither.

Who knew that when he heard Wang Ze's question, Yang Ku glanced at Wang Ze with strange eyes, but he didn't reply.

After not getting an answer from Yang Ku for a long time, Wang Ze turned his head and saw Yang Ku standing far away, a big distance away from him, so Wang Ze immediately walked in front of Yang Ku and asked again.

Looking at the sailors coming and going on the deck, Yang Ku saw that he really couldn't escape, so he simply pulled Wang Ze back to his cabin, and after carefully closing the hatch, he asked Wang Ze in a low voice: "I don't know who offered this plan to the little marquis?" ”

Wang Ze felt that Yang Ku asked strangely, and immediately said calmly: "But no one has offered me advice, I just feel that my parents have been absent for a long time and miss me very much, and now although the strength of the land of Sanqi has been greatly damaged, but the Qi country is not able to forge ahead after all, so I want to bring them over and have a family reunion!" ”

Hearing Wang Ze's reply, Yang Ku secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and then replied: "I still think that someone has a plan to the little marquis in private, and it's okay if no one offers a plan, if someone privately offers this plan to the little marquis, it must be a strange disaster in his heart, and he can be killed!" ”

Wang Ze said with a smile: "Mr. is often worried, and now there is really no one to offer me advice, I don't know what worries Mr. has just now, might as well talk about it?" ”

"After all, this matter is extremely important, and it must be guarded against," Yang withered and had the interest of pointing out the country, "Little Marquis, do you know why Jun Hou has been staying in the land of Sanqi and not coming to the East China Sea?" Even General Cheng Er and Leader Zhu San stayed there all the time and didn't come to the East China Sea? ”

Hearing Yang Ku's rhetorical question, Wang Ze was even more strange: "Isn't this because the land of Sanqi is the foundation of our rapid rise after all?" If it weren't for the fact that we swept through the land of Sanqi and seized so many resources, the islands in the East China Sea would not have developed in just a few years! ”

"The little marquis only knows one and doesn't know the other!" Yang Ku smiled bitterly and shook his head and said, "Things are not so simple, today the old man will go out and talk to the little marquis, just out of my mouth into your ears, don't let others know!" ”

Seeing the solemnity of Yang Ku's face, Wang Ze also realized that things might not be as simple as he thought, so he also nodded solemnly: "Since this is the case, I will keep it secret for Mr., and ask Mr. for more advice!" ”

Knowing that I had always kept my promises, Yang Ku said with confidence: "At the beginning, Jeju Island occupied by the little marquis was just a small land, and it was never valued by everyone in the land of Sanqi, even if it was the king, he just felt that the little marquis could earn a place for everyone to retreat, so he supported the little marquis!" ”

"But later, starting from the night attack on Qizhou by the little marquis, the monarch waited from east to west, and the little marquis sent a large army from west to east, and the two sides attacked, quickly swept the land of Sanqi, and captured the seventy-two cities of Qidi, which has the appearance of becoming a country of its own! At this time, many people in the army also began to have ambitions, and they looked down on Jeju Island in the East China Sea! "Qiandu Chinese Network

Saying that, Yang Ku glanced at Wang Ze and said: "To say something that the little marquis doesn't like to hear, Jeju Island at this time can't even be self-sufficient in food, it is simply a barren land, plus the cottage quickly occupied the rich Sanqi land at that time, it is normal for them to look down on it, so the little marquis, you can have time to build Jeju Island step by step according to your own wishes, and you don't have to worry about people with higher prestige coming to divide power!" ”

Yang Ku paused and took a breath and said: "But now it is different from the past, the little marquis not only gained a firm foothold in the East China Sea, but also completely destroyed the East China Sea powerhouse Wa Guo, with 100,000 people under his command, more than one million people, and a strong naval army to guard the sea area, this is a sign of a strong country!" ”

"On the other hand, the current Sanqi, since the defeat of Jeju and Jibei County, and the defeat of Qizhou, the army has lost more than 200,000 people, although the territory occupied by the current is also a relatively large territory east of Weishui, but in the land of Sanqi it is all barren land, and there is a large army of Qi army stationed in Qingzhou in the west, and it cannot be expanded again!"

Speaking of this, Yang Ku said in a low voice: "In this way, under the advantages of one and the other, the islands in the East China Sea will inevitably become a fragrant bait, and during this time, people have begun to notice the situation here of the little marquis!" ”

Wang Ze was a little confused by the unified analysis of Yang Ku, and when he heard that Yang Ku stopped talking at the critical moment, he immediately hurriedly asked: "In this way, what will happen?" ”

Seeing that Wang Ze was still asking himself, Yang Wei was a little distressed, and he had said this, why didn't the little marquis understand what was going on?

However, looking at Wang Ze's expectant and trusting eyes, Yang Ku thought for a long time and then continued: "In this way, someone will come to the East China Sea by agitating the monarch, so that when the time comes, the troops and people on the islands of the East China Sea who do you want to listen to?" ”

At this time, Wang Ze still hadn't thought too much, he didn't care: "It's not the same as when I was in Sanqi, I have to listen to both me and my father!" ”

Yang Ku's face said solemnly: "Little Hou Ye, this time is not as good as at the beginning, although everyone also listened to you in the land of Sanqi, but the most important thing is to listen to Jun Hou, and Xiao Hou Ye is on the islands of the East China Sea most of the time, so being together for a short period of time will not have any effect, and there will not be too much command confusion, but if Jun Hou comes to the islands of the East China Sea, it will be different!" ”

Wang Ze was puzzled: "What's the difference?" My father and I are both family, and there is no gap between us, so what can be wrong? Even if my father is willing to give up my rights to my father, what's wrong, Mr. Yang, please be careful! ”

Since the words have come to this point, Yang Ku simply said: "Little Marquis, since ancient times, there are no two days in the sky, and there are no two lords of the people, if the monarch also comes here, it will inevitably lead to chaos in the government decrees here in the East China Sea, and a large number of more senior generals have come here and occupy many important positions, these people are either the elders of the little marquis, or their relatives, why should the little marquis let them listen to you all at that time?" ”

Seeing that Wang Ze was silent for a long time, Yang Ku also said slowly: "Therefore, thinking about it, Jun Hou must also know the current situation, so he is reluctant to come to the East China Sea, I think it must be Liu Xin and Liu Tingshi who explained this matter to him, so what I said below is only for some people, but not for Jun Hou, the little marquis can still go back to visit Jun Hou and his wife every year!" ”

At this time, Wang Ze understood why he had told Wang Yong and Gongxi Wenqi several times before that it would be good to let them come to the East China Sea and reunite the family, but not only Wang Yong refused him, but even his mother, who had always missed him, did not agree to the proposal to come to the East China Sea.

At first, I thought that they were reluctant to build a business in Sanqi, but now I realized that my parents were holding back their thoughts about themselves, so that they could have enough time to control all parts of the East China Sea, so they didn't come to see themselves.

If Wang Yong had promised to come to the East China Sea before, it is estimated that the military and political power in the East China Sea would now be controlled by the civil and military generals who came from the land of Sanqi.

Except for a few people who are more familiar with him, most of the others have no feelings, and the territory of the East China Sea is now under his command, if it is occupied by those who have returned from Sanqi, a serious conflict will inevitably break out between the two sides.

Wang Ze is very sure of this point, so that as the spokesperson of the generals of the East China Sea, he will inevitably have conflicts with those officials and generals who came from Sanqi, and in the long run, he will inevitably threaten his position.

You must know that now Wang Yong has three sons, and if he dies suddenly one day, it will only make his father Wang Yong sad for a while.

During the Ming Dynasty, emperors often died unexpectedly, but most of them died in the hands of those civil officials, and some people have always been unscrupulous for the sake of power, so during this time, Wang Ze also began to pay attention to his own safety, but that was only to prevent some external threats.

Regarding the sinister nature of people's hearts, although Wang Ze has always been not hesitant to speculate on the greatest malice, but for his family, relatives and friends, Wang Ze has never thought about it like this.

"In this way, the strategy against the Japanese state will be further accelerated," Wang Ze muttered, "We must eliminate these Japanese forces in the southern part of Changzhou Island within at least two years, and settle all the state and county officials!" ”

Seeing that Wang Ze finally began to pay attention to these things, Yang Ku also smiled and said: "Don't panic, little marquis, now that Jun Hou has thought of this problem for little marquis, little marquis only needs to implement it step by step according to our original plan!" ”

Saying that, Yang withered shook his feather fan and said: "Now that the Japanese people on Xiadu Island have been cleaned up, and there are more than 100,000 people on the island, you can set up prefectures and counties to carry out civil affairs!" In addition, the newly occupied area from Choshu to Yamato River can be cleared this winter, and a county can be established here, so that at least two civil officials who can serve as county guards can be established! ”

Wang Ze shook his head and said: "I'm afraid it's more than that, in addition to these two places, there are already forty or fifty thousand people on Whale Island in the north, and there are nearly 30,000 people on Sakhalin Island and Jiangkou in the north, plus a total of 50,000 slaves, although these places have not yet reached the standard of establishing counties, but by next year, a large number of people will move there, and we will also set up counties in these places first, which will also require a large number of state and county officials!" ”

Speaking of this, Wang Ze smiled at Yang Ku and said, "As for Mr. Yang, your East China Sea Stay-behind Mansion, I have already thought about where to place it!" ”

Yang Ku had been working together with several county guards before, and he had not decided where the specific location was, and then he heard Wang Ze say that he had arranged his stay in the mansion, and he was immediately curious and didn't know where Wang Ze was going to arrange himself.

"I wonder what Mr. Yang thinks of this place?" Wang Ze looked at Yang Ku with a smile on his face, looking like he was not afraid that you would not go.

Speaking of which, there are tens of thousands of young militiamen in Pingmachuan (Kanto Plain) who have now set up camp here, and have successively established hundreds of tunbao, and when they move their families in the future, then there will be at least one or two hundred thousand people here, and there are vast plains here, which is naturally a suitable place for building a big city.

Yang Ku thought for a while and smiled: "This is indeed a good place, not only is there a large number of plains around, there is abundant food, but also in the middle of Whale Island, Sakhalin Island and Qinjin, Xiadu, Ryukyu and other places, it is a lot more convenient to travel between the north and the south, even if there is a Central Plains naval army to come to conquer them in the future!" ”

Wang Ze placed the withered East China Sea Garrison Mansion in the Kwantung Plain in later generations to increase the raid on the northern region of the Wa Kingdom, and the Left-behind Mansion is also the highest authority in the East China Sea region at present.

Seeing that Yang Ku understood what he meant, Wang Ze smiled and said: "If I want to speed up the occupation of the Japanese country, I must deal with the Ezo people while cleaning up the Japanese people, and we can't let them become our stumbling blocks. ”

"Little Marquis, the cost of relocating the people at this time is much higher, and we are now in conflict with the Ezo people, I am afraid that it will cause a large number of casualties! Why don't we wait for us to gradually clean up some tribes, and then gradually relocate the people! "I'm still a little worried.

Wang Ze shook his head and said: "This time I am not relocating those ordinary people who have only come for a short time, I am migrating some herdsmen who can ride horses to graze, the large area of land from Pingma River to the north is mostly low hills, and there are also a large number of broken Pingchuan, then these places will be used as grazing grounds, and with our cavalry, you can easily cut the Ezo people into pieces!" ”

Wang Ze remembered that there was a plain near Sendai in the northern part of the Wa Kingdom in later generations, and there was also a plain near Sado Island on the west coast.

As long as the advantage of cavalry is used to divide the Ezo people first, then the militia under his command alone can slowly and gradually clean up these natives.

Although Wang Ze attaches more importance to the Ezo people, he will definitely not look up to it too much, after all, it is a race that even the Japanese people can't deal with, and a race that is about to be eliminated can set off what kind of storm can it set off!
