Beitangkou.

"This Song Dynasty is not useless!"

Wang Yue looked at two giant divine boats on the sea not far away with interest.

This thing is indeed a bit beyond imagination.

Although we know that the Song Dynasty shipbuilding technology was basically the first in this era, it was still surprising that such a huge sea ship was not the largest. In fact, the real largest one was not the sea ship but the inland river ship. That is, those inland river vehicles and ships, this thing cannot be used at sea because of its poor resistance to wind and waves, but it is very useful on the inland lakes and Yangtze River, so they can be built as large as possible.

There is no need to care about dripping for a flatbed.

But the most important thing about ocean-going sailing is its ability to resist wind and waves, so you can only use sailboats, but you can use galleys near the sea.

But ocean-going can only sail.

This must be limited by the current sail efficiency.

Because the draught is too deep, these two ships cannot enter the Lutai Port inside, so they can only be anchored on the sea temporarily and float. In fact, they cannot even enter the Dangyu Village in Dengzhou. The bay in Penglai is not the same level as Zhoushan. In the future, there is no use here. Ruan Xiaoqi made it purely to perform his merits. This thing is too big and is not practical at all in the Bohai Bay. The shallow sea of ​​Bohai Sea is actually less than two or three hundred tons. It is best not to have more than one meter of water. Such a ship can be parked at any port along the coast. A giant ship like this thousand-ton is useless except for its majesty.

But it's a pity to dismantle it.

So next time, Ruan Xiaoqi had to drag them to Lushunkou, where there was enough water depth to allow them to be parked.

But because I can't enter Daoyu Village, it is impossible to rely on them to transport them.

Just as decoration.

"When you go back to the king, you have to open a thousand materials for those who run abroad like this. In addition to these two 10,000 Shenzhou, the remaining six are all passenger ships with 2,000 passenger ships. The most used by the people is 5,000 sea ships. Previously, the largest 12,000 materials were built on the Yangtze River."

A civil servant in red robe beside him said with a smile on his face and bowed his head.

This is Lu Yundi, the Minister of Rites.

He was not a great painter, but his official position in the court was the Minister of Rites, but he never returned to the capital after returning from his last mission to Goryeo. It was because of the north-south confrontation and the south of the Yangtze River. This time, the great painter still asked him to go on missions. There were several officials who were also on missions together last time. They set sail from Mingzhou and inserted into the Taiwan warm current eastward, and the rest were pushed by the warm current to the southwest of Jiuzhou Island to turn to Goryeo. When he returned, he took the coastal waters near Goryeo and continued to take the warm current to the north. There was a circulation in the area of ​​Pi Island that could go south to Chengshantou, and then followed the coastline to continue southward.

It just happened to avoid the Bohai Bay and Dengzhou-Lushun routes, which were mainly patrolled by the Changsheng Army Navy.

Then they went to Tangdao to replenish supplies.

But unexpectedly, he happened to run into Ruan Xiaoqi, who attacked Tang Island, and became a prisoner.

But Zhao Gou ran away.

When Ruan Xiaoqi captured two ships in Shenzhou and returned to Tangdao Bay, Zhao Gou had already climbed the north shore under the protection of the remaining navy and fled to Banqiao. Ruan Xiaoqi could only burn down the remaining ships in the bay, and withdrew back to the sea with the prisoners and returned to Dengzhou. He relied on his subordinates that he had sailboats without waiting for the wind or taking the ocean currents, and directly dragged the two ships with centipede boats. It took half a month to finally drag it here.

"Are you really going to Goryeo?"

Wang Yue said.

"Master, if the young man doesn't go to the mission to Goryeo, why should he take this trip in the wind and waves? Last time, the young man came back from the mission to encounter a storm, and almost got into the fish's belly."

Lu Yundi said with a pure face.

"Are you from Nanjing?"

Wang Yue said.

Lu Yundi's face changed instantly...

"Even if you stayed in Jiangnan before, the court did not hold you accountable, or even dismissed your official position. But don't think I don't know what you are doing in Jiangnan. For those who follow the Supreme Emperor, the official family will not show mercy. Those who are in the south are fine, after all, they are not yet able to reach them, but you who are in Nanjing should not be ignorant."

Wang Yue said gloomyly.

Lu Yundi's legs became weak and he knelt down.

"The king is kind, the young man is actually sent to the Goryeo."

He said crying.

"Immediately send an order to Yang Zaixing, arrest all his nine tribes, confiscate all the industries, kill the men, and distribute the women to the brothers."

Wang Yue said to the guard beside him.

The latter saluted and turned around, and then the unlucky Lu Yundi cried and hugged him.

"Big King, the little one tells the truth."

He looked at Wang Yue howled.

"Then tell me the truth."

Wang Yue said.

"The youngest actually went to contact the Jurchens, but to cover up their eyes, he told the outside world that he had sent the Jurchens to attack Goryeo and occupied Pyongyang, Goryeo, so he sent the youngest to go north to contact the Jurchens in the name of being sent to Goryeo. Previously, Cai You and Qin Hui encouraged the emperor to use troops to suppress the enemy, and wanted to use money to buy the Jurchens and go south to drive south. When the king had no time to look south, he suddenly attacked Kaifeng to control the official family.

Force the king to negotiate again.

Of course, if the Jurchens can defeat the king, the Supreme Emperor can continue to go north and attack the Jurchens from north to south and destroy the king."

Lu Yundi said crying.

"Ah, that's the truth."

Wang Yue said with satisfaction.

He guessed that was the same, otherwise the great painter would have been idle and would not have sent envoys to Goryeo for the second time after just over a year, especially when the Jurchens attacked Goryeo and had already captured almost half of Goryeo.

If you are contacting the Jurchens, it would be very reasonable.

It is normal to cover up people's eyes and ears.

Zhao Huan just captured the Jurchen capital and captured the Jurchen emperor alive, and no longer recognized the Jin Kingdom. However, he went to find the Jurchens to collude. This was a crime of treason in any case. Even the Supreme Emperor was no longer the emperor. He was also a crime. Only Zhao Huan could decide to the outside world as the emperor, but when he went to collude with the Jurchens, he was treason.

The Supreme Emperor's treason is also treason.

So I simply told the public that I had sent Goryeo. Anyway, it was normal for the Song Dynasty to send a mission to Goryeo.

But actually went to find the Jurchens.

"Did the Jurchens agree?"

Wang Yue said.

“Agree.

How could you not agree to such a good thing?

It was just that they suspected that they were not sincere and would not really go south to attack, just to coax some food from the Supreme Emperor. The Jurchens are now extremely short of food. They attacked Goryeo this time to grab grain. Although they robbed a lot, Goryeo was not originally rich. Not much food they snatched was transported to Linhuang in addition to supply combat.

Therefore, Oli did not want the Supreme Emperor to send them one million stones of food first.

After they fought Goryeo, they went back south."

Lu Yundi said.

In fact, he didn't know that at this time, Olibu had already captured Kaijing, and Goryeo had another civil strife. Wang Kai bribed Li Ziqian's in-laws. Tuo Junjing, who burned the palace last time, captured Li Ziqian on the way to their Nanjing, Seoul. Later, Wang Kai fled to Seoul and arrested Tuo Junjing and exiled. Now Wang Kai has truly taken power and has begun to seek peace from the Jurchens, in exchange for the withdrawal of Olibu's troops.

I don't know how the results are.

However, unless Wang Yue can send troops to rescue Goryeo at this time, Wang Kai's surrender is inevitable. After all, the Jurchens want them to surrender and pay tribute.

They had never supravaged the Jurchens before.

"Do you think the Supreme Emperor will agree?"

Wang Yue said.

Ruan Xiaoqi just captured two Shenzhou, but the other six passenger ships fled, and Lu Yundi was just a regular man. There were several peer officials on the six passenger ships, and they would definitely convey this condition to the great painter.

"This should be done. It's just one million stone of food. It's not worth mentioning to the Supreme Emperor, which means it's a little difficult to transport it. But when I was young, Oli had already attacked Kaijing. It's estimated that Kaijing had been captured at this time. It's a road to transport from Jiangnan to the south. One million stones is just a few more trips. Besides, it's not that he really gave him one million stones, but he just transported more than one hundred thousand stones to show his sincerity."

Lu Yundi said carefully.

Of course I agreed!

The fool doesn't agree!

How have the Supreme Emperor been bullied over the years? But Wang Yue is getting stronger and stronger, and the Supreme Emperor is getting less confident. Especially after this traitor plays the card of playing the local tyrants to divide the land, the Supreme Emperor and the Dukes of Jiangnan are scared to sleep and eat.

They all understand people, and they all know the consequences of Wang Yue playing like this in Jiangnan.

This has already occurred rebellion!

Another person who fought against the local tyrants and divided the land and led the army to Jiangnan. It can be said that all the troublemakers would fall into madness. In this case, they would have to kill him no matter what. And the only person they could count on at this time was the Jurchens. Although the Jurchens were bullied by him very badly, the facts proved that Wang Yue did not dare to fight against the Jurchens in the field. It can be said that the Jurchens are now the saviors in the eyes of the gentry in Jiangnan. Since this is the case, of course they have to unite, it is just one million stones of food.

The gentry in Jiangnan is not short of this. With the current price of Jiangnan, the commercial tax on any road can be solved by just one road, because the rated 6 million stone of rice shipped per year has been suspended, and the price of Jiangnan grain is continuing to fall.

At present, Pingjiang Prefecture has reached 300 people per stone.

One million stones are only a few hundred thousand coins, while Jiangnan East Road has a commercial tax of nearly 600,000 yuan per year.

It's just a drizzle!

"Borrow troops to suppress the enemy!"

Wang Yue sighed.

The great painter has finally come to this point!

This is really...

"The Supreme Emperor is exterminated from the people!"

He said.
