Great Warriors of Sui and Tang Dynasties

Chapter 1282 Picking Peaches

Anxiously waiting.

Dazhanhaikou outside Lion City finally arrived with a fleet.

Huang Zhong is wearing a bright armor and a phoenix-winged hood on his head. He holds a horizontal knife on his waist with his hand on his waist. On the other side of his waist hangs a double sword, a strong bow and a pot of feathered arrows.

Five big treasure ships lead the way, followed by dozens of smaller merchant ships.

The treasure ship in front is obviously an armed merchant ship of the South China Sea Fleet. Their ships are equipped with magic machine guns and lathe crossbows.Not to mention, each ship carried [-] elite guard soldiers.

This is the treasure of the South China Sea Fleet, and five of them were sent directly, which shows that this time is really unusual.

Huang Zhong came to reinforce Lion City under the order of Niu Chaoen, the escort of the South China Sea Fleet.

Li Shimin wanted to lead the pirates to attack Lion City. This matter was reported to Niu Chaoen, the escort of the South China Sea Fleet, and Niu Chaoen acquiesced.But Niu Chaoen didn't plan to intervene directly, but no one thought that Li Shimin was just taking the opportunity to snatch it, and he might not even succeed.

But who would have expected that Li Shimin not only succeeded, but also captured the king alive.

Not to mention, Li Shimin actually stayed in the Lion City as if he didn't want to leave.

Now Li Shimin has openly called the name of Daqin Linyi County in Lion City, and recruited troops, setting up three regiments with 6000 troops.

Niu Chaoen could no longer pretend to be invisible.

In fact, even Lingnan appeasement envoy Li Jing had already directly interrogated Niu Chaoen. After all, Li Shimin's team had always been affiliated with their South China Sea Fleet.

Li Shimin obtained the private plunder license from Niu Chaoen before, allowing him to plunder Linyi Chenla in the area of ​​Linyi Funan Kunlun Sea.

However, the fundamental reason why Niu Chaoen directly sent a thousand elite guards and five big treasure ships was that Jin Yiwei informed them of an important piece of information.

After Li Shimin captured the Lion City, he got 10,000+ catties of gold and countless money and food. The money in the entire Lion City can be worth as much as 3000 to [-] million.

Even Niu Chaoen, who was the escort of the South China Sea Fleet, couldn't help being shocked by such a large amount of money.

After confirming the news, he immediately mobilized five large treasure ships and sent a thousand fleet guards southward.

From Nanhai Port to Lion City, it took twelve days by sea to arrive.

Huang Zhong stood on the bow deck, very proud.

As a former school lieutenant of the Beiya Forbidden Army, even though he quit the Forbidden Army and transferred to the Royal South Sea Fleet, his treatment is better than before.

In the past, he was a commander in charge of a battalion of 500 people, but now he is the deputy capital commander in charge of 1000 people.

The mission Niu Chaoen gave him was very clear. When he arrived in Lion City, he had to transport back the 10,000+ jin of gold in the city.

Although their South China Sea Fleet now has hundreds of big ships and more and more routes, the annual profit is only a few million. How can this Lion City have so much gold and silver? Pass.

Pressing the handle of the knife, he was complacent for a moment.

The Lingnan appeasement envoy is very concerned about Li Shimin's victory over the Lion City, but what he is concerned about is not the gold in the city, but the fact that both Rinan County and Sunset County are at war with Lin Yiguo, and the scale of the war is also increasing.

At this time, Li Shimin broke the capital of Linyi and captured the king of Linyi alive. Li Jing thought it was a great thing.If the situation here is good, Li Jing feels that he can take advantage of the situation and set up Linyi County. Even if he only guards one city, he can mobilize and contain many Linyi troops.

Then the situation in the north will be greatly changed.

The reason why the north is reluctant to end the war is because although the war is constantly escalating, the Qin army has only invested in two counties and has not achieved too many practical victories. Pain, of course, it is impossible to stop fighting easily.

Otherwise, Linyi people will only think that Qin people are easy to bully, and will definitely make a comeback next time.

In Li Jing's plan, there is naturally no plan to destroy Lin Yiguo now.

But this time in the war with Lin Yi, he must gain the upper hand, and even beat Lin Yi.Therefore, for Lion City, his plan is to contain and blackmail Linyi, and finally make Linyi unable to take care of the head and tail. After another decent victory on the northern front, he can force Linyi to call for peace.

Maybe the Lion City will be handed back to Lin Yi in the end, but now this is a bargaining chip.

Li Jing awarded Huang Zhong the post of inspector and prefect of Linyi County. As for Li Shimin, Li Jing considered that he was the magistrate of Xianglin County in Linyi County, considering that he was originally the magistrate of Nantang County.Xianglin County is naturally Linyi County, which is also the city of Fuguo. In fact, Xianglin County is also Linyi County City, which is also in Lion City.

The merchant ships following the treasure ship were all businessmen from Nanhai Port and Jiaozhi Port. They heard that Li Shimin broke the Lion City, the capital of Linyi, and they didn't know that there were great business opportunities here.

So they all rushed over, trying to find a leak.

After breaking the city, the army had too many things in their hands, all kinds of gold and silver jewellery, even silk brocade forging, and all kinds of spices, etc. Of course, the army held these things to no avail, they could not eat or drink, In the end it will always be exchanged for money.

Merchants are most willing to do this kind of business, even if the front line will be a little dangerous, but the profits will be huge.

Not to mention, after breaking the city, there will be many slaves, which is another big deal.

Whoever can arrive at the first time can make first-hand profits.

They came all the way, worried that Li Shimin and the others would not be able to keep out of the Lion City, and they would lose a huge opportunity at that time. How many business opportunities are there in a capital city? Even if it is a random official's house, there are countless opportunities Things can be bought and sold.

From far away, there is a boat coming to welcome Dazhanhaikou.

Knowing that the South China Sea Fleet finally sent someone, Li Shimin came to greet him in person.

The treasure ship with the black skull flag stopped in front of the South Sea Fleet under the Shark Flag.

Li Shimin changed boats to Huang Zhong's ship, and boarded the treasure ship Shark.

When the two met, Huang Zhong was not polite, and directly took out two orders from Li Jing and Niu Chaoen.

"Lingnan appeasement envoy Li Tiance ordered that we inspect the prefect of Linyi County immediately, and transfer Li Shimin, the magistrate of Nantang County, to be the magistrate of Xianglin County."

Li Shimin bowed his head to accept the order, with mixed feelings in his heart, in the end, the prefect of Linyi still didn't let himself be the prefect, even if he was a prefect of the school inspection.Fortunately, he didn't transfer himself to leave, and still awarded Xianglin county magistrate.

Niu Chaoen's order to Li Shimin was very straightforward.

"Niu Gong ordered you to hand over the eighteen gold medals and eighteen gold medals from Linyi's palace to someone, and send them back to Nanhai immediately. Niu Gong will transfer them to Luoyang to present the saints. Of course, you have made great achievements in this matter, and you will also play along with them." Tomorrow's son."

Regarding the gold, Li Shimin clearly expected that it would not belong to him, so he was not dissatisfied at the moment.

"Huang Gong, the Lion City has already prepared a welcome banquet. The old soldiers, generals, merchants and people in the city have been waiting for a long time. Please invite Huang Gong into the city!"

Huang Zhong stretched out his hand and patted Li Shimin's arm, "From now on, we will guard the same city together, and you and I don't need to see each other like this. I'll call you good brother, and you can call me brother."
