Outlaws of the Marsh

Chapter 101 But if there is resistance, shoot and kill
...

A sunny morning.

Li Yan opened his eyes and found that there was only Chen Liqing in his arms, and Li Shishi was no longer there.

Gently pulled her arm out from under Chen Liqing's head, got out of bed, put on her clothes, and left her room.

Coming to the bow, Li Shishi really blows the sea breeze here.

Li Yan came behind Li Shishi, put a piece of Li Shishi's clothes that he took out casually on Li Shishi, and said: "The sea breeze in the morning is cool, if it blows for a long time, it will leave sick people."

Li Shishi lay back and leaned into Li Yan's arms, and said softly: "Mmm~"

Li Yan hugged Li Shishi in his arms, put his chin on Li Shishi's shoulder, and asked, "Do you regret coming out with me?"

Sailing a long distance at sea is a very boring thing.

At first, when I first saw the sea, I might be able to feel a little emotion for the endless sea. Gradually, there were almost no other colors around me except the blue of sea water and sky, and the white of white clouds and waves. At that time, anyone will feel boring!

In addition to being boring, there is also danger. Just like two days ago, Li Yan and the others encountered a storm. Not only the boat was almost capsized, but the group almost lost their way. Fortunately, Li Yan was wearing a mechanical nautical watch, and finally saved the day.

Li Shishi shook his head and said: "No, if I don't come out with the officials, I'm afraid I will never know how vast the sea is."

indeed so!

Standing on the seashore, people can't feel how vast the ocean is. Only in the middle of the sea can people feel that no matter how big a ship is, it looks so small, so small that it is so vulnerable.

Li Shishi said again: "The officials are really warriors, dare to conquer this vast sea!"

This is also one of the reasons why Li Shishi is so attractive, she always praises men for satisfying their vanity.

Li Yan smiled. Just as he was about to speak, he heard someone shouting from the observation deck: "Island, what a big island!"

Hearing this, Li Yan immediately let go of Li Shishi's hand, then raised his wrist and silently calculated, "Here we are."

Li Yan covered the watch again with his sleeve, and then shouted: "Sign the flag to inform the leaders of the other three ships to come over!"

There is no semaphore in this era, and all communication between ships depends on shouting.

For Li Yan, an old navy, this was too inconvenient, so he "invented" the semaphore, which was actually a complete copy of our army's semaphore.

Not long after, the other three boats approached Li Yan's boat one by one, and then everyone gathered on Li Yan's boat through the springboard, and then they entered the conference room with Li Yan.

As soon as everyone sat down, Li Yan cut to the chase and said, "We should have found the mythical island."

After hearing Li Yan's words, everyone including Sun Jing, Qiu Qian, and Kong Hou all showed excitement!
When everyone calmed down a bit, Li Yancai said again: "There may be residents on this island, and there may be troops." Afraid to discourage everyone's enthusiasm, Li Yan said again: "However, whether it is residents or troops, the number should be Not too much, after all, this is just a slightly larger island, and if this island is really indestructible, it is impossible for the Nine Heavens Profound Lady to guide us to find it."

Hearing Li Yan say that there may be residents and troops on the island, the excitement of Wang Lun and others gradually faded.

However, after hearing from Li Yan that there would not be too many residents and troops on this island, and they were talking about Nine Heavens Xuannv, Wang Lun and the others made up their minds again.

Shan Shiqi said: "It doesn't matter whether there are people or not, if you dare to stop us, just kill it!"

Wang Lun asked, "Brother, what is our attitude towards the islanders and the army?"

Li Yan had already thought about this.

Li Yan is not going to be like the British colonizing the Americas, and his mind is full of making quick money to seize more raw material production areas and markets for commodity dumping.

Li Yan is ready to completely occupy this land and obtain the land and people.

In this way, Li Yan will inevitably have to face the resistance of the local aborigines, establish an administration, send troops, build cities and public service systems, immigrate, develop the local economy, etc... In short, there are many things, and in a short period of time Not only can't get benefits from here, but also have to continue to subsidize it.

But even so, Li Yan still chose to occupy this place.

Based on this, Li Yanhan said: "But if there is resistance, it doesn't matter if they are killed. If they don't resist, they are also ordinary people under my Liang Shanbo rule."

Upon hearing the course of action set by Li Yan, Wang Lun and others sang in unison: "No!"

Seeing that Li Yan was so decisive and measured, Qiu secretly said: "This man is a great man, if the imperial court can't recruit him, he should exterminate him as soon as possible... It's a pity that I'm trapped here, and I can't write a letter to the imperial court..."

Sun Jing quietly drank the tea in front of him without saying a word, but the occasional flashes of light in his eyes showed that he was not as calm as he wanted to appear.

Li Yan issued an order: "For this campaign, the horse army of Brother Shan Shiqi and Brother Shi Bao will be the main force. Brother Deng Fei will lead your men from the two capitals to follow behind the horse army. Master Lu will lead the remaining infantry from the two capitals. Coordinate with me, Goro, divide your battalion into three capitals, each drive a boat along the island to find the boats and collect them, remember, don’t let a single boat leave the island!"

Shan Shiqi, Shi Bao, Deng Fei, Lu Zhishen, and Ruan Xiaoqi stood up together and sang: "No!"

Li Yan stopped talking nonsense and said directly: "Let's get ready."

……

Wangshan ran the dead horse.

Although the lookouts saw Jeju Island early through the telescope "developed" by Li Yan, Liu Huiniang, and Tang Long's craftsmen, the four large ships with an average speed of [-] knots sailed at full speed for more than an hour before arriving at Jeju Island .

Li Yan clearly remembered that the Jeju Passenger Terminal was on the east side of Jeju Island.

A place like a pier cannot be built anywhere, it requires a specific geographical environment.

Therefore, even after eight or nine hundred years, Li Yan bet that the wharf of Jeju Island should be on the east side of Jeju Island.

Therefore, Li Yan ordered to land from the east coast of Jeju Island.

There was still a distance from Jeju Island, and everyone saw a crown-like mountain.

This is the famous Seongsan Sunrise Peak on Jeju Island.

Of course, only Li Yan associated it with a crown. What Wang Lun and others, who had never seen a crown, saw was a mountain near the sea, which was composed of large and small volcanic rocks. The small volcanic stones were ground into black sand and stones, and the unique seaside scenery made them amazed, and they began to believe that this was the mythical island bestowed on them by the Nine Heavens Xuannv!

The boat moved a little further, and everyone saw a crude port with two hundred material boats and more than a dozen fishing boats parked in the port.

Seeing this, everyone's hearts tightened!
There are both ports and fishing boats, so there must be people. This is not an uninhabited island, and war is inevitable.
