Ji Tang

Chapter 792

Woo~~!

Dark clouds are pressing down, storm is coming, and the deep and deep sound of the horn resounds throughout the harbor!

Flags are flying, thousands of sails are competing, like white clouds rolling.

The soldiers were dressed in bright colors and their voices were loud.Solemn yet low-pitched, like a volcano about to erupt, with that attitude of being ready to shock the world, even ordinary people who don't understand military formations can feel that these are the elites in the world!

Ji Song stood at the port, and in front of him was a huge ship, three feet high, fifteen feet long, and seven feet wide, standing in front of him.

Next to him were various generals of the Tang Navy, headed by Su Lie and Liu Rengui respectively.Today is the day for their departure. Su Lie will take a boat to the north and land in Liaodong as the first battle to conquer Goguryeo.

Liu Rengui will, under the leadership of Ji Song, sweep this sea area.All unknown ships were sunk regardless of the reason.

"General Manager, the general is leaving."

Su Lie came to Ji Song and bowed.

Ji Song turned around, stepped forward to straighten his clothes and armor, and patted the dust on them.He warned: "Remember what I said, think twice before doing anything. You are a general now, not a reckless man charging into battle. Remember your responsibilities, and don't let me down!"

Su Lie's face turned red. He could feel the sincere teachings from the Marquis, and he could understand the Marquis's ardent hope.

"Don't worry, Chief Manager, this trip will be fully rewarded. Lie, I'll be waiting for you at the foot of Liaodong City!"

After saying that, he boarded the ship without hesitation, came to the deck, bowed to Ji Song, who was still looking at him, and loudly said: "Let's go!"

"Sail!"

"set sail!"

The horn sounds again, just more urgent and loud!

"General Manager, the general will also go first."

Liu Rengui also spoke out.

"Go! Send them to the place and start sweeping the sea area immediately. I will arrive soon."

"I have received a secret report that Yeon Gaesumun already knows about our expedition. If nothing happens, Shicheng will be a hard stone to chew this time. Tell Su Lie that if Shicheng cannot be taken within three days, he will immediately go south. , where to give it to me!"

"Your mission is to sweep the sea area, meet Su Lie at any time and supply food and grass. After taking Jili City, join Su Lie, and then go all the way north until you meet with His Majesty at the foot of Liaodong City."

"Remember, you guys, don't be merciful. With me standing in front of you, just kill the enemy. Do whatever is convenient, whatever is convenient. Anyway, it's all strategies, plots, and conspiracies that are beneficial to our army. Just let your hands and feet go. You don't need to think about other things, and you shouldn't think about them. The only thing you have to think about is how to win the battle, and win the battle big."

Ji Song looked at the ship that was about to disappear from sight and said with a gloomy expression.

"Little general, take orders!"

Liu Rengui took a deep look at Ji Song and left without looking back.

He knew that after the Marquis said these words, he would definitely be impeached by the courtiers in the future.No matter what the purpose is, it is certainly good for the Tang soldiers to win by any means necessary.But for some it is intolerable.

He could imagine what difficulties the Marquis would face when he returned to Chang'an!
"Master Hou, why are you doing this?"

Yao Chang frowned, he really couldn't figure out why the Marquis did this?Don’t you know that this will cause a backlash from most courtiers?

"Yes, Lord Marquis, now those people want to stare at you twelve hours a day, just waiting for you to make a mistake. By doing this, aren't you giving others a hand? Are you trying to tie yourself up?"

Liu Zhan was also a little confused. Although he and Yao Chang were already high-ranking officials in the Tang Dynasty, their horizons still hadn't caught up.

"You don't need to persuade me, I have already made up my mind on this matter!"

Ji Song had no intention of listening to their persuasion. There was no need to say some things. Everyone would understand by then. "Let's go, I will take you to see what a real maritime overlord looks like. Those ships just now were just toys."

After Ji Song finished speaking, he walked towards a small boat. Yao Chang and Liu Zhan looked at each other and followed them on the small boat.

The man operating the boat was a soldier. Without saying a word, he led Ji Song and others slowly towards the depths of the sea.Liu Zhan and Yao Chang were a little confused, where were they going?
"Lord Hou."

"Shut up now, we'll find out when we get there."

An hour later, they came to a small island.But what surprised Yao and Chang was that the ship did not go to the island, but sailed around the island towards the back.

When they passed an island reef, they were stunned for a moment, then pointed ahead and were stunned!

Ji Song ignored them. It wasn't until they came to him that everyone realized that they were just talking about a big witch and a small witch.

This is a behemoth with a total weight of six thousand stones. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a giant beast on the sea.

Only after they boarded the giant ship did Liu Zhan and his wife regain their composure.

"Master Marquis, what on earth is going on? Why is there such a giant ship here?"

As the head of Dengzhou Shipping Department, Liu Zhan knows this sea area better than him.But now such a big ship appears under our noses. How is this possible?

"Master Hou, you are finally here!"

Liu Laoer appeared in front of everyone. He glanced at Liu Zhan and Yao Chang and said to Ji Song.

"Liu Laoer? Why are you here?"

Yao Chang almost pulled out his beard. Didn't he return to Chang'an?How come it appears here?And this giant ship.

"Looking at what you said, I have legs. Of course I walked here on my own. Could it be that I flew here?"

Liu Laoer rolled his eyes and said angrily.

"No, where did this ship come from? Also, how did you not get discovered by me here?"

Liu Zhan was confused at this time. He didn't know until now that such a big ship appeared in his territory?

Seeing the traces of life on the shore, you know that their arrival will not be short, even much earlier than the fleet from Nanyang.

"What's so hard about this? See that port?"

Liu Laoer proudly pointed to a coastal cliff.

Liu Zhan was stunned for a moment, but he soon discovered the problem.Because when he stood in Liu Laoer's position and looked over there, he realized that there was a whole other world just a few steps away.

This is a passage that is close to Yabi and is surrounded by dangerous walls on three sides.Moreover, the outermost cliff turned a corner. Unless you carefully inspected it, you would not have noticed that it was actually a deep-water port.

Ji Song also said with emotion: "This ship was built later. Now apart from the people who built the ship, only everyone here knows about it. Even His Majesty doesn't know about it."

When he realized something was wrong, he kept an eye on it.After the ships were built, some people were withdrawn. After all the construction was completed, everyone retreated to Datang.

But just after all the emperor's people left, half of the shipbuilders who had withdrawn earlier came back.

Ji Lu followed the emperor's people openly, and then Liu Laoer went there again. There were ready-made materials and shipbuilding craftsmen who were already familiar with the craft.

There is also a half-finished keel, which was discarded due to a mistake in the original design of the ship.But in the end it was used on this ship, and it took two years to build this unprecedented giant ship.

It's a lot bigger than the largest ship in the port just now.
