Xiao Ming's passenger ship also belongs to the sails and steam-powered ships, but because in winter, the northwest wind is stronger, so the sails are basically retracted, because it is a perennial route between Weihai and Hangzhou, so the coal is loaded very much, and it can travel between the two places completely using steam power.

The Jiaolong was moored not far away, and there was no longer smoke in the chimney, Xiao Ming found the boat boss to ask about the situation of the Jiaolong on the other side, and the Jiaolong had already sent a small boat at this time, and what was the ship boss of the passenger ship negotiating? Xiao Ming took a closer look and found that this person was the deputy captain on the Jiaolong, and the captain of his warship was the captain to distinguish his powers.
The man immediately saluted when he saw Xiao Ming, Jiaolong was Xiao Ming's ship, and the officers on the ship naturally knew Xiao Ming, Xiao Ming replied and asked, "What's the matter with Jiaolong?" ”
"Master Yu, Jiaolong is currently in a coal emergency, and coal is being raised!" The man replied.
"Why is this happening? : Xiao Ming's eyebrows furrowed together, before the sea ship goes to sea, it is a regulation that must be followed to check the coal burning, especially for warships, but Jiaolong would have such a low-level mistake, it is almost unforgivable, and as the captain of the ship, he will be severely punished.
If there is a shortage of coal, Xiao Ming stipulates that he should try his best to ensure the coal burning of ships going to sea, even if it is to stop a few warships, and he has piled up a lot of coal on the dock of Yokohama Port.
"Yu Taishi knows that there was a fire in the Yokohama coal yard, burning 150,000 tons of coal, all the coal yards in Fuso, the miners rioted, and the fleet is currently in short supply of coal.
"When did this happen?" Xiao Ming's heart shook when he heard the shock, but his face was still silent.
"Just five days ago!"
"Why don't you apply the flying kite to pass the book and ask for coal at the nearest Lushun base?" Xiao Ming asked.
"The Kite Transit Station has been destroyed! The resistance of the Japanese people is very fierce, and Port Arthur has to experience the frozen sea, so they can only go to the Weihai base! The man replied respectfully.
"Tell me what's going on, guys!" Xiao Ming only knew at this time that when he was away, such a big thing happened in Japan, and it seemed that the entire Japanese Tiger Guard Army had experienced an unimaginable change five or six days ago.
It turned out that during the period of Xiao Ming's return to China, all the actions of the entire Japan were carried out in an orderly manner under the command of Yang Qizhong and others, but just a few days ago, Yang Qizhong received a secret report that the leader of the Kwantung Gen Clan Samurai Clan, Minamoto Yorito, actually organized a surprise attack and robbed Emperor Shirakawa who was trapped in the Kyoto Imperial Palace!
At the same time, there was a riot among prisoners of war working in every field in various parts of Japan, and the production of the coal plant suddenly came to a standstill, and Yang Qizhong immediately sent people to suppress it, but the signs here were not resolved, and suddenly a fire broke out in the Yokohama coal yard, which burned more than 100,000 tons of coal.
Constantly like this, Minamoto Yoritomo actually rode a Japanese warship to lead a large group of men and horses to challenge, and after being repulsed, he actually adopted a harassment strategy, making the large warships of the Song army run in vain, making the already tense coal burning even more nervous, and the whole of Japan set off a wave of resistance everywhere! The kite transit station was also destroyed!
In desperation, Yang Qizhong had to send the relatively small ship "Jiaolong" to the Weihai base to ask for coal! Then it was possible to maintain the patrol needs of the warships, and in response to the resistance in various parts of Japan, Yang Qizhong did not immediately send troops to suppress it, but added to the blockade, and throughout the winter, the rebellion gradually subsided.
Of course, this kind of thing will recur after the spring, and Hokkaido, where Xiao Ming once carried out a very solid movement to liberate the untouchables in Japan, has not even had a rebellion, and there has been no large-scale liberation movement on Honshu Island, so these people seem to have found some spiritual support after hearing that Emperor Shirakawa has fled, and they will naturally set off a riot after being bewitched and tempted!
This is not far from the Weihai base, Xiao Ming decided to rush to Japan immediately after Weihai replenished the coal, Jiaolong received half a ship of coal from the passenger ship, started the steam engine, sailed to the Weihai base, after arriving at the Weihai base, the next day Xiao Ming ordered to take a cargo ship of coal to the Japanese ......!
Xiao Ming was in a hurry, not taking into account the people and things around him, and when he calmed down, he found that An Daoquan next to him looked at him with a wry smile, and then he patted his head, and suddenly remembered that he had been pulling An Daoquan all along, and he should have let him take a train to Xuzhou in Weihai!
"I'm sorry! Brother An, why did I keep pulling you and didn't let you go? Xiao Ming hurriedly apologized to An Daoquan.
"Forget it!" An Daoquan waved his hand and said: "I also want to see the customs of Fusang Country, this time I should follow you on a tour of the mountains and rivers, but you have to be responsible for this cost?" ”
"Of course, that's of course, let Brother An follow me for a trip, how can you care about the cost! Ha ha......! ”
An Daoquan: "......! ”
The warship is moving fast on the sea, this time Xiao Ming still takes some craftsmen to go, it is necessary to repair the flying kite transfer station, there is no timely communication facilities, and the transmission of information between the huge and complex bases established by Xiao Ming at the moment is very important, which is related to the interests of all parties.
Originally, he was very strange, why didn't Yang Qizhong and Wu Song go to the nearby major ports on the Goryeo Peninsula to fill coal? When he crossed the Tsushima Strait and docked at the port of Busan, he found that there were a large number of Jurchens gathered outside the major ports of Goryeo, and they had all been driven out of the mountains.
In connection with Xiao Ming's Great Migration Plan, all of these people would be arranged to go to Hokkaido, but because the fighting did not last long, and the cargo ships to the port of Sapporo had to stop operating due to the shortage of coal, coupled with the unusually cold winter this year, in order to ensure the heating of these immigrants, all the coal accumulated in the port became the fuel for these people's heating.
It seems that the situation is far beyond Xiao Ming's original estimate! It's the beginning of spring, and if you don't transfer the immigrants to Hokkaido immediately, it won't be long before there will be a food shortage, and it will be even more troublesome at that time.
In fact, there are coal mines in the territory of Goryeo, but the coal production is not high, and many larger coal mines have not yet been discovered and mined, and in winter, the mining of various minerals will stop, because the mining technology at that time was backward, and winter is the season of frequent accidents, so large-scale mining will not be carried out until March of the following year.
Goryeo's domestic grain reserves were basically empty, and the recent immigrants in Goryeo were basically from Liaodong, and they had been guaranteed not to pay grain within three years, so it was impossible for Xiao Ming to collect grain locally, and now he could only count on support from Weihai and Lushun.
It seems that the source of the rebellion in this sensitive period is very smart, Xiao Ming if he does not resume the local coal mine production in Japan as soon as possible, then he will face greater difficulties, and now Japan is not safe, immigrants will also be psychologically afraid of the occurrence of war, and when the spring planting time is in the source of the chaos, Xiao Ming's immigration plan will be greatly delayed.
After Xiao Ming rushed to Yokohama without stopping, he immediately rushed to Kyoto, and on the way he saw the whole depression of Japan, and before he was about to adopt a policy of annexation of Japan, the hope in the hearts of the people of the island nation must be divided and disintegrated first, and it may be said that the current situation cannot but be said to be a good phenomenon.
If after the merger into the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, the aborigines rose up again, it was very annoying, so the great migration plan had to be pushed forward, he arrived in Kyoto immediately found Wu Song and Yang Qi and others, and listened to their reports, the original source Lai Chao in the first time after learning of the death of Ping Qingsheng connected the large landowners and nobles in the Kansai region, and promoted a general out of the first time.
This man named Shinji Ishihara was originally a retainer of Genji, but he was sent to Taira Kiyomori's side as an undercover agent a long time ago, and he achieved some military exploits, why did he be promoted? That's because this person has a large number of ninjas in his hands, and he also has a good network among the Kansai samurai because of the relationship with Taira Kiyomori.
It was also this Ishihara Shinji who received the raid on the palace to rescue the Emperor Shirakawa, and it was this Ishihara Shinji who took in the fog hidden Raizo and assassinated Xiao Ming, so Xiao Ming wanted to deal a severe blow to this person and resolutely eliminate the Minamoto Yoritomo group that was currently entrenched in Nagano and Niigata.
But this matter is obviously not urgent, judging from the current situation, the Minamoto Yorichao group is in the dark, and Xiao Ming is in the light, so this balance must be broken, and Xiao Ming's "liberation movement" in the Hokkaido region is very effective, and the Hanlu who is stationed there is still supported by the local liberated untouchables.
A series of orders were issued from Xiao Ming, mobilizing the coal stored in the Lushun base to be transported to Japan by cargo ship as soon as possible to solve the problem of coal shortage here, and at the same time ordering Han Lingshou in the northern mining area to severely suppress the prisoners who dared to make trouble, and then he and Wu Song, Yang Qi and others scattered around Heiankyo in Kyoto, Japan, and started a vigorous liberation movement!
Due to the fact that there are many powerful people in the entire Japanese society except for the imperial family, many people's local forces are basically intertwined, although they adopt a non-cooperative attitude towards Xiao Ming's Great Song occupation army, they will not take the initiative to provoke the Song army, which also represents the attitude of many Japanese middle and lower classes.
However, the untouchable class, which occupies the vast majority of the Japanese population, does not see it this way, and when the power of the Great Song Army has not yet extended its tentacles to these cities, villages and towns, most of them adopt a wait-and-see attitude, or rather a lively mentality, "It seems that the life of the rich man is not easy either!" ”
The campaign may have been a long-lasting process over time, but the results were seen in a short period of time, and after the execution of several evil nobles and large landowners, and even the fat monks of the monasteries, the untouchables who divided the property finally showed happy expressions, and once this policy was implemented, the news spread at an astonishing speed.
Further down, not only did the untouchables take the initiative to start a campaign to fight local tyrants and divide the land, but they even took the initiative to provide all kinds of information to the Great Song Army, who had hoarded tens of thousands of catties of rice at home and were ready to hoard Juqi and sell it at a high price, who had participated in the last riot, and who was a hidden agent of Genji, whose family members had joined Ishihara Shinji's army, and so on.
At the end of February, Xiao Ming received news that Minamoto Yoritomo had sent Shinji Ishihara to raid the Song army's grain warehouses there from Otsu and other places, while the other group was traveling on hundreds of fishing boats from the east to the Yokosuka base in the port of Yokohama, targeting the newly established coal dock there.
Xiao Ming patted his thigh and said, "Waiting for them, where are you running this time?" ”
