Chapter 579: Dongyi Cherry Blossoms Attack
Leng Zhuo just laughed at Wei Zhilan's words, although Leng Zhuo has never discharged the women in the family and tried to treat them fairly, but obviously, Leng Zhuo doesn't care, these women are quite concerned, but on this issue, Leng Zhuo doesn't want to get entangled in it, if they have to be arranged, let them go to the row, as long as they don't make too much trouble.
And marrying Nangong Yuhu, Leng Zhuo also thought about it, and he had this plan to go to Yangzhou, but whether to take action or not, Leng Zhuo really didn't make up his mind, after all, although he and Nangong Yuhu have a skin-to-skin relationship, but marrying Nangong Yuhu is not what he said he would marry, Nangong family may not be as good as Wei Guogong, but in Yangzhou's one-third of an acre of land, he is a soil emperor.
However, Wei Zhilan said it so clearly, which can be regarded as dispelling Leng Zhuo's concerns, on the Leng family's side, he is most worried, right?
Uh, why did you think of it so well: "Don't talk about this, let's go to grandpa's for dinner, I'm back, I haven't gone to grandpa's side to say hello"
Yangzhou, south of the estuary of the Tianhe River, is one of the prefectures of Yangzhou, Suzhou Mansion, this Suzhou Mansion is second only to Yangzhou City in Yangzhou, and Suzhou Mansion is under the jurisdiction of five counties, north of Tianhe, east of the East China Sea, west of Jingyue Lake, this piece of land, is the rich county in Suzhou Prefecture, Haizhou County.
Haizhou County is near the river and the sea, and the territory is also the river longitudinal and horizontal, and it is located in Yangzhou, the richest state in the empire's Kyushu, with countless special resources, and the wealth of Haizhou lies in the sea, and the sea trade also makes Haizhou County the leader of the five counties in Suzhou.
In addition to the inland jurisdiction of Haizhou County, there are several large archipelagos in the place of more than 100 nautical miles at the mouth of the Tianhe River, and above the Penglai Islands, the largest archipelago, there are two large islands, that is, the son Penglai Island, the narrowest place between the two islands, the distance is only 200 meters, looking at each other from afar, like two shells on a mussel.
The wide water area between the two islands, the widest part is seven or eight nautical miles, and the water depth is more than ten zhang deep.
And on this son Penglai Island, there is a naval division of the empire, Haizhou Naval Division, this Haizhou Naval Division is second only to the Yunzhou Naval Division controlled by the Yunzhou Oriental Family in terms of scale, in terms of function, the Haizhou Naval Division guards the sea off Yangzhou, conquest of pirates, and guarding the waterway, and the task cannot be said to be heavy.
Since the civil strife in the empire, the sailors stationed on the Penglai Islands have also been transferred one after another to join the Qingzhou battlefield, and now there are less than three of the five major water battalions under the jurisdiction of the entire Haizhou Sailors.
More than 200 nautical miles away from the northeast of Penglai Islands, it is the volcanic archipelago under the jurisdiction of Penglai County, this archipelago is formed by volcanic eruption, there are only three islands that live on people, the inhabitants of the island all rely on fishing and hunting, pearl diving for a living, in addition, on this archipelago, there is also a small water village, it is the patrol water camp of the Haizhou Naval Division, there are more than 200 soldiers and horses stationed in the permanent army, and there are more than 10 large and small warships, which is regarded as a sentinel battle in the sea.
On July 25, the civil strife in the empire was still a mess, but on the sea, a group of uninvited guests came.
A bright moon hung high above the sea, and there was no sound except for the sound of the waves crashing against the side of the ship, and the sea seemed to be calm that night, and the whole sea was like a huge mirror, shining with sparkling waves.
"Master, we have reached the sea off the volcanic archipelago" Among the many sea ships, the largest one is probably a flat-bottomed sea ship with seven masts and thirteen sails, from the appearance, this sea ship has a wide belly and a smooth bottom, like a large sea turtle.
The hull is wide, the internal space is naturally spacious, among the three floors of the ship, the top floor, there is a huge fan screen in the upper position, in front of the screen, there are a few low, soft couch cushions, and in the lower position, divided into four rows of kneeling samurai sitting on the ground in a row, in the middle of the road, kneeling a samurai in battle armor, is waiting for the command of the head of the family.
On both sides of the ship, a few lanterns that were not bright emitted a hazy light, but more of them were the cold moonlight.
"Gentlemen, since I succeeded to the throne, I have pursued the strategy of long-distance friendship and close attack, successively swallowing itakura, Shimono, Zhucheng, turtle, half, nine cities and six places, my Sakura family is growing stronger and stronger, with 3,000 samurai, more than 10,000 ninjas, and 100,000 soldiers with armor, which can be regarded as a strong soldier and a strong horse."
In the dim candlelight, the somewhat feminine voice was a little more excited, and continued: "However, although my Sakura family is growing stronger and stronger, but on this island, it is difficult to have room for development, in the north, the Tokugawa family is also strong and strong, and the strength is not inferior to me, in the northeast, although the strength of the Shinchen family is slightly inferior, but if you want to swallow it, it is difficult to do it, and the Matsushita family in the east is even more behemoth, dominating Guanzhong, southeast, and south, although there are many big names, but now they are hugging together, thinking that the 200,000 coalition army will prevent me from Sakura and Panasonic."
"I want to unify the island, but my Sakura family is not strong enough, and relying on its own accumulation, even if it is working hard, right?
In Dongyi, the hierarchy is far stricter than that of the empire, so the one above speaks, and the samurai below only obey, and no one dares to breathe.
"The ninjas of our Sakura family have brought back a big news, the powerful empire in our west is now in the midst of civil strife, and this chaos will last for a long time, and now the sailors guarding the east coast have also been drawn to join in the battle to quell the civil strife, and the rest of the sailors, but our people echo, as long as we can sweep the sailors on Penglai Island in one fell swoop, occupy this archipelago, and use this as a foundation, to plunder the huge Tianlong Empire's richest Yangzhou, just need to capture three or five cities, and the looting income is equivalent to ten years, or even twenty years of income from my Sakura family”
Speaking of this, Sakura Mingzhi was obviously a little excited: "As long as we loot more, the strength of my Sakura family will be stronger, and then, in just two or three years to digest, my Sakura family will have the strength to sweep away the island, end the centuries-old division of our clan, and I, Sakura Mingzhi, will become the new emperor of my clan."
"The head of the family is ambitious, and we must do our best to ......"
"Get up, not far ahead is the volcanic archipelago, and it is also our first battle to plunder the Heavenly Dragon Empire, Sakurai, Sakuragi, you two lead the ninja of the headquarters to attack, be sure to be quiet, right? Solve all the people on the island quietly, don't let the news leak out"
"Yes, Master"
The number of ships docked on the east side of a human island, and from the boat, hundreds of people jumped into the water, the moonlight was like water, the light was rippling, but after a long time, the sea was still as calm as promised, except for the waves, there was no longer a trace of ripples, as if all the people who had jumped into the sea before had disappeared.
The second largest island in the volcanic archipelago is also the location of Haizhou Shuishi Water Village, which is surrounded by a jungle around the middle volcano, and the only river on the island flows from the extinct volcanic lake, and the water village is built next to this river.
The water village protrudes from the sea, and on the wooden plank road on the sea, there are also several guard towers, with the light from the highest lighthouse on the island, you can detect any wind and grass nearby, and several sentinels in charge of night patrol are playing big ha, one by one, vigorously, vigorously, and vigorously walking along the plank road.
Since the last great turmoil in the interior of the empire, it is now a hundred years of Chengping, so the local military equipment is slack, as soon as there is civil strife, it spreads greatly, and the empire's maritime frontier is longer than the army's Chengping, almost after the establishment of the empire, after the eastward expedition to Dongyi, so that Dongyi fell into division, the empire's thousands of miles of sea frontier seems to have been spent in peace except for some pirates.
And like the sailors stationed at the anchorage, the pirates walked around, and the long-term peace made the imperial sailors more and more unvalued, and the degree of armament slack was still more than that of the army, and there were few wars between the top and bottom of the sailors, and the top and bottom were even more senior, and the internal management was stiff, like the sailors on the volcanic islands, in addition to taking a low salary, most of the time they went out to fish like fishermen.
With such lax defense, it was almost like stripping off and waiting for someone to pounce.
In the moment, when the soldiers on the night patrol did not come back to their senses, they grabbed their heads with both hands, and broke their necks with a click, and then they were quickly dragged aside, and their clothes were stripped off, and in a few moments, several night patrol soldiers walked along the trestle again.
The soldiers guarding the gate of the water village were also easily solved, and the water gate was also creaked open, and through the moonlight, under the sea, a figure swam into the water village like a turtle and pounced on the dock.
Along the way, it can be said that it was extremely smooth, several sentries on the dock were also completely unresponsive to be *out, several ninjas directly infiltrated the other party's camp, entered the lighthouse, the lighthouse was on duty five soldiers, three fell asleep, two were also up and down eyelids fighting, and when these ninjas came up, they also didn't even shout, they were solved, the lighthouse was captured, and immediately came a signal of three bright and three dark, and the ninjas hidden under the sea suddenly jumped out of the water, divided into small groups, and went straight to the camp of the water village.
The killing lasted only half an hour, and more than 100 people in the camp died in their beds without even making a sound.
"Send the news back, leave twenty people, and the rest will follow me to Okaiyama Island" Seeing that it was going so well, Sakurai discussed with Sakuragi and made a decision, there is a town on Okaiyama Island, and seizing it is just right to rest, and maybe catch a lot of girls who warm the bed.
