The heavens start from saving Daming

When the two Huaihe Rivers were attacked, Zhou Bao, the governor of the Zhenhai Navy, had greatly sponsored Yang Xingmi.

Li Yunze had warned him at that time that he could only go out at noon in the future, because sooner or later he would be dealt with.

Now, it's time for Li Yunze to fulfill his promise.

After defeating Wu Ning's army and relieved his worries, Li Yunze turned around and went straight to Yangzhou City along the Grand Canal.

The soldiers are ready to cross the river to attack Zhenhai.

Zhou Bao on the other side was discouraged, and sent envoys to bring many gifts to beg for surrender, saying that in the future, Li Jiedu must be the only one to follow, and he will do the work of a dog and a horse.

For another hero who conquered the world, he would admit it if he couldn't say it.

Accepting wealth and beauties, asking for protons, and asking for taxes to be paid on time is almost the same.

If the whole world is so peaceful, it is basically a new dynasty.

But Li Yunze didn't think so, the feudal towns of one side of the separatist regime must not be left behind.

So he accepted the treasure and the beauty, and then drove away the envoy, telling him to go back and tell Zhou Bao that for the sake of the treasure and the beauty, he would be left with a dead body.

Over there, Zhou Bao was furious, and together with Yang Xingmi who defected to him, he brought a fleet of soldiers and horses to Zhenjiang, facing Li Yunze on the other side across the river.

In order to deal with Li Yunze's big iron boat, they specially prepared more than a hundred arson boats, and remodeled more than a dozen five-toothed big boats. Capture the big iron ship.

As long as they can seize the big iron boat, the waterways in the world will be left to run amok.

The idea must be good, and the preparation is sufficient.

But when they personally boarded the warship and left the port to start a battle with the Xuanwu Army's navy on the river, they were dumbfounded.

The big iron ship that appeared in front of them was not one, but more than ten ships!
Dishes for a table of guests were prepared, but there were more than a dozen tables of guests.

Not only is the food not enough to eat, but the angry guests will also overturn the table.

"Zhou Jiedu." On the five-toothed ship, Yang Xingmi hurriedly persuaded Zhou Bao, "The thieves are powerful, it's better to retreat for now."

"It's too late." Zhou Bao, who was full of confidence before, raised his finger bitterly and pointed at the opposite side, rushing out from behind the wooden boat array, cutting through the waves and going straight to the big iron boat coming from the Zhenhai navy, and said, "Their speed is too fast, and they have no sails. Without oars, it can run much faster than me.

Can't run away at all. "

When Yang Xingmi heard the words, he also looked sad.

He is very proficient in naval warfare, but he has never thought that there are iron ships in the world. Why can't such a heavy iron ship sink?
This is not the most terrible thing, the most terrible thing is that such a heavy iron ship is not only extremely strong, but also galloping like flying.

Now the number has skyrocketed, and there is no need to fight at all.

The desperate Zhenhai sailors wanted to escape, but when they took advantage of the wind to turn around, the fishing boat battle fleet over there rushed directly into the formation.

The thick and large bow bumped into the corner, piercing fiercely into the hull.

The small boat was smashed directly, and the big boat was also smashed into two pieces.

Even a big and strong five-toothed ship cannot withstand the fierce blow of a fishing boat and battleship sailing at high speed.

Zhou Bao and Yang Xingmi's five-toothed ship attracted the most attention because of its high-flying flag, and there were five fishing boats coming to them in all directions.

Three fishing boats successfully crashed into the flagships of Zhou Bao and Yang Xingmi, and the other two fishing boats collided by themselves because of their unskilled helmsmen.

The harsh metal twisting sound when rubbing together is really tingling.

But Zhou Bao and Yang Xingmi had no time to be happy that their opponents self-destructed the Great Wall. Their ship was knocked out of three huge holes, and the raging river water poured violently into it.

In this case, there is nothing to say, and it is even more impossible to have any damage control measures.

The only thing that can be done at this time is to jump ship quickly.

Those who could still move on the boat all tore off their armor desperately, and then jumped into the river like dumplings.

You can't do without taking off your armor. The armor is heavy and will drag you down to the bottom of the water.

The weight of the clothes also increases when the clothes are wet, and the additional resistance is caused, which is very unfavorable for survival in the water.

In the Xuanwu Army navy fleet in the distance, Li Yunze, holding a binoculars in his hand, shook his head again and again when he saw the big five-toothed ship with the handsome flag fluttering and sinking into the river.

"The big five-toothed boat sounds domineering, but it looks majestic. It's a pity that it can't be used in practice, it really can't. The aspect ratio is not suitable, and the ship's side is too high. You can barely mess around in the river, and you can take pictures when you go out to sea with a little wind and waves. turn."

He quickly put away the binoculars, turned back and sat down on the Maza, and began to play with his small red stove to warm the wine.

From the moment the battle started, the outcome was already predetermined.

Unless Zhou Bao and Yang Xingmi are the sons of the rain master He Bo, who can call the wind and rain and set off huge waves of hundreds of feet, and smash Li Yunze's fleet into the bottom of the river.Otherwise, a wooden sailing ship fighting an iron braked power ship would not be considered a battle at all.

As one after another Zhenjun ships were hit and sunk, the remaining fleet could not bear the tremendous pressure and surrendered one after another.

This large-scale, but one-sided battle on the water soon ended.

The Zhenhai Navy put up a tenacious resistance, and their arsonist boat even got close to a fishing boat operated by a novice.

However, the fire can't destroy the iron boat, and the fishing boat can easily get rid of the arsonist boat as long as the power is still there.

As for the siege by serial boats, the fishing boat was indeed besieged with iron chains, but the soldiers who jumped to fight couldn't even find the entrance to the deck of the fishing boat, and the sergeants on board shot and killed them soon.

After all efforts failed, it was only natural that Zhen Haijun, whose morale collapsed, chose to surrender.

Searches after the war failed to find traces of Yang Xingmi and Zhou Bao, and most people believed that they had successfully escaped to the shore.

But when they attacked and received various places in the south of the Yangtze River, they never got any news from them.

When the entire south of the Yangtze River fell under the control of the Xuanwu Army, neither Yang Xingmi nor Zhou Bao appeared.

Because no one is alive, no one is dead, no corpse is seen, in the end, they can only be classified into the ranks of missing people.

At this time, Jiangnan is far from being the tax-heavy land of later generations. Even after years of development, it is still far inferior to the north.

Regardless of the number of fields or population, the land in the south of the Yangtze River is not enough to compare with the north.

The real and complete rise of the land in the south of the Yangtze River still had to wait until after Jingkang, especially in the Ming Dynasty, before it became the wealthiest place in the world.

It is also because there are fewer people, so it is much easier for Li Yunze to stabilize the place.

And with the advancement of the Sanshe Law, more and more students are assigned to work after graduation, and there is no need for Li Yunze to go and do everything by himself.

To crack down on the powerful, divide the fields, arrange for the retirement of sergeants, etc., Li Yunze only needs to catch the boss.

Li Yunze, who is free, also has the time and mood to play in Jiangnan before it was fully developed.

As the so-called land of fish and rice, there are streams and lakes everywhere, and the fertile land is almost all paddy fields.

It is difficult to irrigate the fields in the north, but it is very easy here in the south of the Yangtze River.

Li Yunze personally caught a few nets on the big river.

Not only is it huge, but there are also rare fish such as saury that ordinary people in later generations will hardly see, let alone eat.

Like hairy crabs, saury and other expensive luxury goods in later generations, people in this era can eat whatever they want.

A chef was hired from the city, and they lit a fire by the river and made a table full of fish feast. Li Yunze enjoyed the whole fish feast watching the river view.

Beside him, there are dozens or hundreds of bald monks sitting or standing.

That's right, every time Li Yunze went to the south of the Yangtze River, there would be a repertoire, hitting the temple hard.

Needless to say about the process, he is already familiar with the road.

Just talk about the result, all the monks who did not have a degree will return to vulgarity, and if there is a second time, they will directly tear down the temple and arrest people.

The so-called temple property is not recognized as being confiscated, but each monk can be divided into [-] acres of Yongye land according to the head to cultivate and support himself.

The most terrible thing is that Li Yunze once again emphasized that no matter who owns it, as long as it is an acre of land, it has to pay taxes.

In this world, as long as you take his land, you have to pay him taxes.

It doesn't matter whether it's a monk or a Taoist priest, or a nun, a witch, or something.

Then there is the cliche topic, folk IOUs are not recognized or allowed.

Not only are all existing IOUs burned, but the government will not recognize any future ones.

If you want to borrow money, you can only go to the bank opened by the government.

Undoubtedly, these moves touched the interests of many people.

Under the interests, there is only the competition between Chiguoguo and nothing else to talk about.

A large group of monks like today came to intercede and talk about the Dharma, and they were considered amiable. The assassination happened several times, and one of them was a beauty sent by a local tyrant on the couch. Cough cough.

"Is Jiedu not afraid of the Buddha's blame?"

"I believe in family."

"The way of heaven favors reincarnation, Jiedu is afraid that he will enter the hell of Avici."

"Hell belongs to Hades."

"Return to Earth Store Bodhisattva."

"You can do whatever you want. Either sit down and eat together, or go to the Yamen to register the property right now. Don't make any more noise, the sun is so bright today, and your bald head is too dazzling."

Li Yunze has always been indifferent to Buddhism, and this has something to do with the scum of Buddhism.

Because I have seen too much, I am very impatient.

If it weren't for some worries about the divine beast falling from the sky, it would have been completely leveled off, so why would I talk nonsense to them.

Rejecting the entreaties and threats of the monks, Li Yunze, who had never been afraid of the Buddha, ate all the fish feast, gave the monks an ultimatum, turned around and returned to the city.

This time he stayed at the residence of Zhou Bao's Jiedushi.

As soon as he entered the gate of the mansion, Li Yunze stopped in his tracks.

Stretching out his fingers and pointing at the servants kneeling on the ground to greet him, he frowned and asked, "What do you mean?"

Naturally, all the original servants were driven away. In theory, there should only be sergeants here, at most some beauties.

But at this time, a group of Kunlun slaves greeted Li Yunze!

The logistics officer Zhou Dabao hurried forward and explained, "Jiedu, these Kunlun slaves were sent by foreign caravans in the city. We all like to keep some Kunlun slaves."

"Fuck off!"

The sullen Li Yunze kicked over, "I don't want to see Kunlun slaves and Ansa robbers the most! You bastard, dare to lure me in front of me, let those foreign caravans leave immediately, and bring their Kunlun slaves with you!" Get out!"
