On the sea facing the wind, centipede boats ride the wind and waves.

All of these were newly built in Lutai this year, but they were not big in size. They only had twenty or thirty rows of oars on both sides, and were not mainly used for military purposes. This was used as a trawler to catch fishing.

Fisheries are very important.

When new crops cannot be introduced for the time being, and traditional crops do not have chemical fertilizers and pesticides, and the output cannot be achieved by real breakthroughs, fishery is the most important food supplement. Even if the canned food is too high-end, after all, spices are very expensive at this time, but relying on cheap sea salt, the transportation distance of sea fish can still be extended to the inland to the maximum extent...

Processing on the boat to remove the internal organs of the fish head, stuff salt directly into the stomach, and then boil the high-temperature concentrated salt on the shore and stuff it into the clay pot to seal it.

This is enough to let Yanshan City eat Shanghai fish.

The taste may be almost the same.

Not to mention that there is an ice age along the Bohai Sea coast, and even the fishermen in Dagukou lack fresh water. They have the habit of digging sea ice to pile up in winter and then drinking sea ice melting water after melting in spring and summer. Although it is not fresh water, it is indeed barely possible to drink it. This will also store a large amount of ice in winter to increase the transportation distance of fresh fish. For those sea fish that are caught immediately remove the internal organs. If there is sea ice to keep fresh, it will be possible for rich people in Yanshan City to eat the chilled sea fish directly.

If all fishing villages along the Bohai Sea coast develop such a system, then the entire Yanshan Prefecture can be benefited by sea fish.

As for the fishery resources here...

This era is a time to consider a lot of fishery resources!

Seals and whales are everywhere along the Liaodong Bay coast to this day...

"Millions of pounds of meat!"

Wang Yue, who was basking in the sun on the deck, looked at the group of whales leaping out of the sea next to him and sighed.

On both sides of the deck in front of him, the oars were rowing long oars rhythmically with the sound of drums. Although it was against the wind at this time, the centipede ship under his feet was still moving forward at a speed of no less than five knots on the sea. It was such a long distance paddling, which was a huge test for the oars. Fortunately, they all had a heavy reward, and they would receive a heavy reward if they sent the army to Liaodong, so they were still energetic, and they could still ensure the ability to sail continuously when rowing shifts...

Unfortunately, there are no slaves.

If there were enough slaves and then locked on the oar with iron chains, it would be perfect.

So in the future, this slave trade is imminent, and this is the perfect power device.

On the deck between these paddlers, the soldiers who participated in the expedition were sitting honestly, and people couldn't stand the bumps at the sea and vomited wildly at the wooden barrels they had distributed.

These are actually cavalry.

Of course, they don't have a single war horse now.

This needs to be seized from the enemy after logging in.

Everyone is fully armed, all of which are the latest Wang Yue style plate armor, breastplates, iron arm hands, similar leg guards, and basin collars. They are all carburized wrought iron, which is actually considered low carbon steel.

Forged iron and extruded impurities and carburized.

The result of this will definitely meet the steel standard.

This new armor was made by the unscrupulous merchants in Kaifeng Commune. They were all capable of making money, blast furnace iron smelting, pig iron frying, and hydraulic forging hammers. Wang Yue provided some help, but the carburization of the iron was all made by them themselves.

The price is indeed very high.

But it is precisely because of the high prices that those unscrupulous merchants flock to it.

Based on their current competitive speed, it is estimated that this kind of armor will no longer be a high-end product in a few years.

However, the prices of high-quality iron ore are now beginning to soar.

"This thing can be eaten?"

Ma Kuo said in surprise.

"Go back to the general, this thing is very unpalatable. The young man thought it was fresh before, so he led his brothers to stab a small one with a spear. As a result, the meat was old and fishy and difficult to swallow. However, it was oily and full of fat. The small man cut off all the fatty oil and boiled it. He got several barrels of oil and couldn't eat it, but he could use it to light the lamp. It is said that some dead people rushed to the shore before, and it was also like this to boil oil and light the lamp."

The captain serving next to him said with a smile.

"It's also meat that is unpalatable. You dislike it's oily and fishy. You know that those poor people want to taste meat but cannot get it!"

Wang Yue said.

"What the Grand Marshal taught me is."

The captain said quickly.

"But this lamp oil is really good, so you can get more in the future!"

Wang Yue said.

So in this way, his claws stretched towards the cute whale again.

On the sea on both sides, the happy whales knew nothing and kept jumping among the waves and even spewing sea water upwards. Many soldiers who were originally vomiting were attracted by this spectacular scene and forgot about their vomiting. At this moment, the sailors on the top of the mast sounded the trumpet, and Wang Yue and Ma Kuo immediately stood up and looked into the distance. The green of the land appeared between the sea and the sky...

"Suzhou, Tieshan."

Ma Kuo said.

"It's very fast, it's not dark yet!"

Wang Yue said.

Indeed, they set sail from Daoyu Village before dawn today, and it has been less than twelve hours since they sailed on the sea!

"This kind of ship is naturally fast. Last time I just crossed the sea, I walked for more than ten days."

Ma Kuo said.

"You have swam over two hundred miles of sea for more than ten days?"

Wang Yue said in surprise.

This time is still very exaggerated.

Although he rowed across the Bohai Strait in less than twelve hours, it was only 100 kilometers in the end. The paddle boats usually maintained a cruise of six or seven knots. After all, the engines that burned slaves were actually not weak, but even sailing boats would not sail for more than ten days! It was only 100 kilometers. As long as there was no wind and waves, they would definitely be able to row over for two days. Those who rowed the small sampan across the Pacific Ocean could last fifty nautical miles a day!

"The several missions were all early winter or early spring, and they were all against the wind. They did not come directly from Dengzhou. They could not come directly from the wind. They needed to go to Goryeo in Dengzhou, then turn into the sea current and then head northwest, passing through Xiao Xieduji, Modao, Pi Island, and Suzhou Pass, and waiting for wind supplies along the way, it was no longer too late for more than ten days."

Ma Kuo said.

The name Pidou is still very sudden.

At this time, the Song Dynasty had a good relationship with Goryeo. The great painters had sent envoys to Goryeo before, but they did not go here, but went north in Mingzhou. In addition, the envoy of Goryeo once reminded the Song Dynasty to be alert to the Jurchens and not to believe too much in the alliance. The Jurchens would inevitably tear up the alliance and invade the south. Although this is something that can be thought of as long as they are not stupid, as the neighboring country that has already surrendered to the Jurchens, it is still interesting to remind the Song Dynasty that they could risk being beaten by the Jurchens like this.

"Suzhou, they can name them."

Wang Yue said with interest as he looked at the coast getting closer and closer,

Suzhou, Liao Kingdom, is actually Jinzhou.

"This name was not named by the Liao people. Its originated from the South Summer in Goguryeo. Later, the Liao people placed the Bohai people in this area, borrowed this name and changed it to Laisu County, so it was called Suzhou. Most of this area was the Bohai Sea. After the Liao destroyed the Bohai Sea, the people of the people were dispersed and moved to various places. However, the Han people captured from the south were set up with the entire area. This was the case.

However, this move also made it cheaper for the Jurchens. The Jurchens, who originally lived in the north in the ice and snow, went south and occupied almost the vast majority of the Bohai Sea old places. Even the mountains and forests in Liaodong were already home to the Jurchens.

The Liao Kingdom also enjoyed its success.

In this way, the Jurchens, Bohai and Han ethnic groups intertwined, and the three ethnic groups restricted each other.

The Khitan and the Xi people were nomadic or farming in western Liaoning. Some nobles moved to prefectures and counties to serve as officials. No matter which clan wants to rebel, it is difficult for the other two clans to participate. Then the Khitan and the Xi people can quickly arrive to suppress, but in general, the Liao Kingdom relies more on the Han people."

Ma Kuo said.

"In other words, the Bohai Sea is everywhere on this shore?"

Wang Yue said.

In fact, Bohai and Jurchen are indeed of the same origin.

They are all mars, but one is Sumo and the other is Hei Shui. However, the Liao Kingdom called the Hei Shui Shui. Because the Sumo and the Sumo were established and were seriously sinicized, they were all called Bohai. Therefore, Aguda and his soldiers called out the Jurchens and Bohai brothers. Although he killed his brothers very fiercely, the Jurchens did form an alliance with the Bohai upper class.

The early system of Aguda was designed by Yang Pu, a native of Bohai, who helped design, and the latter was a Jinshi from the Liao Kingdom, and the powerful people in Tiezhou, that is, Yingkou.

As for the Bohai Sea lower layer...

These days, the lower class is not considered human, and leeks are the same for the ruling class. Are not both wide-leaf leeks or narrow-leaf leeks?

"When I came last time, there were already Jurchens stationed. Several states here were originally affiliated with the Southern Jurchen Tanghe Xiangwensi. There were Jurchens in the mountains and forests next to them. During the first sea alliance, Gao Yaoshi and others saw that there were many Jurchen soldiers on the shore, so they did not dare to land and returned."

Ma Kuo said.

"This news is still very gratifying."

Wang Yue said with satisfaction.

However, the remaining landing process was not disturbed. Although there were a small number of residents on the shore, after seeing the warships covered with the sea, they immediately fled to the mountains and forests. Local officials also rode horses to report the news north. However, Wang Yue's landing of the 5,000 Expeditionary Force was not subject to any resistance. When night fell, he had already set up a bonfire on the beach on the shore, and the centipede ship responsible for transporting them had already set up a trawl net and dragged out countless sea fish on the sea.

The rest were those soldiers who had been on the boat for a day and were almost vomiting out their bitter galls.

“What’s this place called?”

Wang Yue sat by the bonfire and said while gnawing on the grilled fish.

"This place should be called Lionkou. There are no people here. The Jurchens will not care that we will land here. The Suzhou Pass north is the real pass. There are sea water on both sides of Suzhou Pass, and there is a very narrow land in the middle. The Jurchens will wait for us with cavalry there."

Ma Kuo said.

"The name Lionkou is not good. We can say that our trip is going smoothly, so we can change our name to Lushun. Here we will change our name to Lushunkou."

Wang Yue looked at the sides and said.
Chapter completed!
