Chapter 203 The Savior



“There is thunder on the island!”

"Will they be attacked?"

"What should we do? Should we pull the anchor away from this Incheon Port?"

"Look! There are many ships, one, two, three, and only dozens of ships with only 50,000 stones. This must be the Song Dynasty naval army. We will quickly pull the anchor away from this Incheon Port, and don't be blocked by the Song Dynasty naval army in the port!"

"Quick! Pull the anchor!"

"There are people in the water, and the Song army wants to dig a ship!"

"Boom boom boom boom boom boom..."

"Boom boom boom boom boom boom..."

"Boom boom boom boom boom boom..."

Mu Lao Crow, the underwater Dragon King Cannon and the underwater thunder developed by Liu Huiniang (install one or several ropes on the mine and let them float across the water. When the enemy ship sails, hanging these ropes will pull and trigger a fuse, causing an explosion, and destroying the enemy ship.), Liangshan Navy took out all their inventory and started the first battle of this naval battle.

Because I didn't expect that the naval battle would be fought (the Goryeo naval army had almost no precedent for naval battles before), nor did I expect that the enemies invaded Danluo County would have so many ships, nor did I expect that the enemies invaded Danluo County would have so many advanced weapons that they had never thought of, so that the large and small ships of Goryeo were closely together. This would make it much easier for the Goryeo army camping on the sea. In fact, it means similar to the iron chain boats, but I don't know whether it was because the conditions were not allowed or because Wu Yanchong had heard of the story of the fire-burning boats. In short, the Goryeo army did not connect the boats with iron rings, but just built some springboards between the boats.

But even so, the gathered Goryeo boat was tragic.

After the explosion, hundreds of ships showed signs of sinking one after another.

Many Korean watermen who were blinded by the bomb jumped into the ship to escape.

Some of these Goryeo water soldiers were drowned, some were bombed, and only a small part of them swam to Jeju Island and were captured by Liangshan soldiers and civilians shortly afterwards.

Many calm-minded Goryeo watermen organized a shipwreck to strand Jeju Island, which could not avoid being captured but could save the lives of a ship.

However, although the navy took out all the advanced weapons and many excellent Liangshan water soldiers even sacrificed their lives to bomb ships, many Goryeo ships escaped from Incheon Port.

There was no way. This time, Goryeo dispatched 32 large sea ships with a load of 50,000 stones, nearly 300 large ships with a load of 10,000 stones, and five or six hundred small and medium-sized boats with a load of less than 5,000 stones. The scale is really too large.

Faced with this situation, no one has any other way, they can only fight a real naval battle, that is, a pursuit battle.

The process will not be described in detail.

The ships in Liangshan are generally fast and often, and they are equipped with forward weapons such as conscience cannons, crossbows, catapults, etc., and they are mentally calculating and unintentional. As a result, most ships were intercepted by the Liangshan naval army as soon as they drove out of Incheon Port. Occasionally, several Goryeo ships escaped, and were intercepted or sunk by the three-masted sea ships that were moored to Liangshan.

In short, this largest naval battle so far was a complete victory in the waters of Liangshan and annihilated the Goryeo Navy.

...

It's dawn.

The battle between the two sides invested nearly 80,000 (if the people of Liangshan were included, more than 150,000) was decided. Although there was still fierce fighting in some areas, it no longer affected the overall situation. At the latest, the Goryeo soldiers who were still resisting would be wiped out.

As for searching for trivial matters such as those Goryeo soldiers and generals scattered on the island while they were in trouble, Wang Lun and others would handle it, so Li Yan would not have to worry about these trivial matters.

The overall situation has been decided, and all the leaders gathered together to report the results of the battle with Li Yan.

The first person to report was Lu Zhishen, "Brother, our troops wiped out the Goryeo Army in Lishui, killed 148 people, and captured 4882 people, one of which was Wu Yanchong, the deputy marshal in this battle."

Li Yan clashed with Pei Xuan and said: "Go to verify it later, and then reward it according to the merits."

Pei Xuanying said: "Yes, brother."

Li Jun then reported: "Brother, we wiped out the Goryeo Navy, killed 535 people, captured 2342 people, and the rest of the navy either drowned in the sea and could not find the body, or fled into the island with the infantry stationed on the dock. We seized a total of 29 large sea boats with a load of 50,000 stones, 233 large ships with a load of 10,000 stones, and 4677 small and medium-sized boats with a load of less than 5,000 stones. Most of these ships need to be repaired, and half can be used directly."

Li Yan said to Pei Xuan again: "Check it out later, and then reward it according to the merits."

Pei Xuan replied again: "Okay, brother."

Zhu Wudao: "Brother, the results of the battles in our place are a bit chaotic. This year has not been fully counted. By the time my younger brother left, more than 22,000 people were captured, including more than 7,200 infantrymen and more than 5,100 horses. The rest were all civilians composed of slaves. Another horse was caught, of which only 1,212 were available, and the rest could only be used for merging or eating."

Although he felt a little sorry for those good horses, Li Yan did not regret blowing up the people and horses.

Li Yan asked: "What about those slave brothers from Goryeo? Have you ever arranged for them to have a meal?"

Zhu Wudao: "It's arranged. According to what my brother said, all the soldiers and generals of Gaoli were hungry and only provided good wine and meat to my servants and brothers. But... I was a little puzzled. Why did my brother do this?"

Li Yan said: "Gory's slaves and brothers have no personal freedom, can buy, sell, donate and inherit. Private slaves do not even have household registration, but are attached to the owner's household registration. They generally only have names and no surnames. Goryeo strictly restricts the transformation of low-class people into good people, thinking that if the low-class people are allowed to transform into good people, they may enter the official career through imperial examinations and other channels, occupy important positions, and commit chaos. Therefore, slaves not only cannot take the imperial examinations, they cannot be an official, but even in principle

A slave can only marry a slave. Although there are actually cases of good and low-class marriage, it is mostly a case of good men marrying a maid. There are few cases of opposite cases, and no matter what the situation is, their children are regarded as low-class people. The "Gory History and Criminal Law" says, "The law of a small country is not a low-class person for its eighth generation household registration, and then they can be divined; if they are low-class people, they are low-class people, and if they are low-class people, they are low-class people.' That is to say, one of the parents is a slave, and the children must also be slaves."

Qiao Daoqing flattered Li Yan and said, "Brother is so knowledgeable."

Li Yan said: "It's not that I'm erudite, but that I'm willing to learn. These are what brothers Li Jishen told me."

When Li Jishen heard Li Yan talking about his name, he immediately smiled.

Li Yan nodded at Li Jishen and said, "I didn't want to attack the capital of Goryeo because it was unrealistic and the possibility of success was very low. But after the brothers Li Jishen talked about the tragic experiences of Goryeo's slaves and brothers, I think we who practice the law for heaven have the obligation to rescue Goryeo's slaves and brothers who are in dire straits and let them have all the power that normal people should enjoy..."

Wang Lun, Sun Jing, Zhu Wu, Qiao Daoqing and others were all extremely smart. When they heard Li Yan's words, their eyes lit up and they said to each other: "This matter will be accomplished!"

Originally, the Liangshan army attacked Goryeo as an aggressive war and would face the resistance of all Goryeo. However, if Li Yan's slogan was released, the aggressive war would become a war of liberation. Li Yan's identity immediately changed, from an invader to a great savior. At that time, all slaves would regard Li Yan as hope and savior, and then follow Li Yan wholeheartedly in order to change the fate of them and their descendants. It is said that the ratio of slaves and servants in Goryeo to good men is one to three, which means that one quarter of Goryeo will stand firmly on their side, and the number will be far greater than that of those nobles. With them, how can this battle be defeated?

Everyone was overwhelmed by Li Yan!

PS: Kaven.

Actually, I didn’t have Kawen, and I had a big wonderful war plot in my mind, but the responses in these chapters are really average, and it’s not OK to subscribe. I reflected on myself. Maybe everyone doesn’t like the war I designed, so I will speed up and pass it quickly, and think about some better plots. In short, try to present some interesting things to everyone.
Chapter completed!
