Chapter 272: A Land of Lies

The sea breeze was blowing, and the third child shook slowly on the mast, still talking calmly:

"In any case, Tamna Island was the undisputed territory of the Yuan Dynasty. And after the Yuan dynasty of this dynasty, he naturally inherited the sovereignty here, which is something that the king of Goryeo also recognized to this dynasty. ”

"Oh, the king of Goryeo also admitted to this dynasty?" The fourth child's eyes lit up.

"That's right, although they have been trying to take Tamna back while we are not looking. But they also knew very well that this had to be agreed upon by the dynasty. In the fifth year of Hongwu, Goryeo submitted the "Tamna Calculation Table" to the emperor, to the effect that "Tamna should be handed over to Goryeo for management, so that the remnants of the Yuan Dynasty on the island would belong to Goryeo, and promised to still pay tribute to the dynasty according to the management model of the Yuan Dynasty's horse herding." Zhu Shen said:

"So, Tamna is our master, there is no doubt about that."

"Then the emperor agreed?" The fourth asked.

"The emperor neither agreed to hand it over to Goryeo as its trustee, nor did he agree to them to send troops, but only let them order the herds on the island to sacrifice horses." The third said in a deep voice: "The Goryeo people are very dishonest, so they used the excuse that Muhu refused to sacrifice horses to the Ming Dynasty, and raised the whole country's troops to capture Tamna, which was the winter of the previous year. ”

"So, they attacked my Ming territory without consent?" The fourth and the others were shocked.

"Logically, that's it! Got it now, right? They should be the ones who should be weak-hearted! The third staggered and laughed:

"The court of this country is full of lies and is good at deception. For example, in the "Tamna Schedule", they said, "The island of Tamna, that is, the people of Goryeo, have made the state their pastor since the founding of the country." It's a big lie.

"Don't talk about it, just say that since the Yuan Dynasty, this Tamna Island has been under the direct jurisdiction of the Yuan Court. Is it true that the emperor of the Yuan Dynasty set up the Tamna Military and Civilian Administration, the Horse Ranch, the Taifu Temple, the Xuanhui Yuan, the Central Political Yuan, and the Information Administration Yuan on the island? But they only say the beginning, not the later, this is taken out of context! ”

"In addition to raising horses, Tamna Island was also a place where criminals were exiled by the Yuan Dynasty. Before Emperor Yuan Shun ascended the throne, he was exiled here. Later, when the country was about to be destroyed, he also ordered people to build a palace on the island and prepare to flee to Tamna, but because he was defeated too quickly, he could not make the trip. So there are not many Koreans on the island at all, and most of them are Mongols, Semu and Han Chinese from the Yuan Dynasty. And where did 'Tamna no Island, that is, the people of Goryeo?' ’”

"What else do they say, 'Although the island is cloudy', when I look at it today, it is not only not a dragon, but a big boundless! Isn't this bullying us that no one has ever been here and wants to get by?! ”

"That's right." The fourth child nodded, and said with a gloomy face: "If the emperor doesn't know what's going on, he thinks that this is a small island with a big nose, and he really gave them Tamna Island." I'm afraid that this damn Korean will not be grateful, but will only be complacent, thinking that we are so stupid and deceitful. ”

"The information provided by Master Hong is very important." Cai Bin and Lin Mi couldn't help but show their heads on the deck, and the latter said, "It seems that our attitude towards them has to be changed." ”

"Not bad......" The former also nodded, and then pretended to see the third child, and pretended to be surprised: "Who hung Master Hong's book up, it's really nonsense!" Put him down! ”

"Cai Qianhu is a little safe, it's the official himself who wants to go up." The third child was still there, and the donkey didn't fall down and said: "This way you won't get seasick, and you can see far." ”

"Oh, that's it, why don't you continue?" Cai Qianhu asked tentatively.

"Put me down!" The third child was anxious. "Lao Tzu is urgent!"

~~

Those who have read the previous book know that Tamna is actually an important navigation beacon on the way to the sea of grain. When the grain ships heading north saw it, they knew it was time to turn.

So the fleet parted ways at this time, and the grain convoy turned northwest and sailed to the Shandong Peninsula; The two boats headed for Tamna Harbour in the north of Tamna Island.

Don't look at the boss of Tamna Island, but there are very few that can be used as a port, Tamna Port is one of the best conditions, and because of its proximity to Goryeo mainland, it is convenient to obtain supplies, so the military and civilian governor's office of the Yuan Dynasty in the past is located here.

Half a day later, Tamna Port arrived.

The sudden appearance of two huge ships soon caused a commotion inside and outside the harbor.

On the fishing boat, the fisherman, who was casting a net to catch fish, saw the sudden appearance of the huge ship that covered the sky and the sun, and was so frightened that he didn't even want the net, and rowed the boat and fled back.

The harbor soon became chaotic, with officers driving away diminutive Goryeo soldiers, half on shore and half on ships to meet the enemy.

The Goryeo warships were powered by oars without sails, with their ends raised high and their middle decks low, like a crescent moon. It looks frustrating, but it's really not slow.

In the blink of an eye, more than a dozen crescent boats came up.

When it got closer, the gap between the hulls of the two sides was vividly reflected. Although they are both called boats, the two sealed boats are like elephants that break into the flock, and the difference in size is too great.

On the sealed boat, the fourth child was puzzled and asked: "We are hanging the dragon flag, can't they understand it?" ”

"Just pretend you don't understand." The sixth sneered: "Xiao Xiba has always been like this, come up and let you suffer a loss, and then pretend to be a big water to wash the Dragon King Temple, so that you can't get angry." If you get angry, they say you don't have national dignity. ”

"That's simple, let's start first." The fourth child laughed and glanced at the tool man Cai Qianhu.

"Fire!" Cai Qianhu immediately gave an unceremonious order, and the four cast-iron cannons installed on the bows of the two sealed ships roared and fired four stone bullets!

Although it didn't hit a single shot, it made a high splash and it was amazing to watch.

Moreover, the deterrent effect of this cannon was so good that the Goryeo warships no longer dared to approach, and watched as the two sealed ships sailed into Tamna Harbor.

~~

Because they did not know the hydrological situation in the port, the two sealed boats did not dare to rush to the shore, so they anchored in the middle of the port.

More than a dozen Goryeo warships stood by from afar, and after more than half an hour, a small boat sailed over with a white flag.

The Goryeo officers on the ship waved the white flag desperately, and Abba Abba shouted.

"He said that he came to negotiate in the name of Pu Wanhu." Lin Mi knew Goryeo, so he personally acted as an interpreter.

"Let him come up." Cai Bin nodded.

When the boat was close, Feng Zhou lowered a long net, and the Goryeo officer on the boat grabbed the rope and climbed up with difficulty.

"Is this a Korean, how can you dress up with the Mongol army?" When the Goryeo officer came up, the Yulin soldiers frowned at his appearance. "Why do you look so much like a tartar?"

"It's skewered." Lin Mi said lightly: "Goryeo was originally a province of the Yuan Dynasty, and the military uniform was naturally the Yuan system. ”

After speaking, he began to talk and talk with the Goryeo officer Asiasi, and Lin Mi changed color, although everyone couldn't understand it, they also knew that he must have scolded his mother.
