After the establishment of the Eastern Han Dynasty, he worshiped the great Sima and the Marquis of Guangping, led his troops to wipe out the separatist forces such as Liu Yong, Dong Xian, Gongsun Shu, and Lu Fang, and attacked the Xiongnu.

In the 20th year of Jianwu's reign, he died of illness and was given the posthumous title of Zhonghou. His funeral was followed the example of General Huo Guang's funeral.

Everyone may not know Liu Rengui. He was the prime minister and famous general of the Tang Dynasty, and the successor of Emperor Zhang of Han Dynasty Liu Jin.

In history, the Japanese general Mao Yezhizi and others led 7000 people to attack Silla. Liu Rengui, who was in his 60s, led the navy along with Du Shuang and Fu Yulong to march along Xiongjin and Baijiang River to join the army.Liu Rengui met the Japanese army at the mouth of Baijiang River. The Tang army won all the battles and burned [-] Japanese warships. For a time, "smoke and flames rose to the sky and the sea water was red", and the Japanese army was defeated.Fu Yufeng escaped and the sword he was wearing was seized.Baekje princes Buyeo Chungseung and Buyeo Chungzhi led their troops and envoys from the Japanese and Tamra kingdoms to surrender.

He commanded the Tang army to defeat the invading Japanese army four times in a row in the Baijiangkou naval battle, almost annihilating all the enemies.He fought so hard that Japan did not dare to use troops against China for more than 800 years. He was the first famous naval war general to fight for his own life.

After the naval battle at Baijiangkou began, there wasn't much to say.

The reason for this was that in the eyes of the Tang Dynasty at that time, Japan was not considered a major enemy at all.

For the Tang Dynasty at that time, Japan was no more than a powerful tribe and there was no need to pay attention to it at all.

Therefore, in Chinese history books, there are very few records of this battle, and Chinese historians did not think it was a major event at all.

It can be said that Liu Rengui was another famous general with ten philosophical qualities. He led an army for the first time in his 60s, but he showed extremely high military talents. Anyway, in the end, the two sides fought for nearly two days, and the Tang army won a great victory.

The "Old Book of Tang" records this in only 25 words: Encountered Japanese soldiers at the mouth of the Baijiang River, won all battles, and burned four hundred of their boats. The sky was scorching with smoke and the sea was red.

Although there are very few records, from these 25 words, we can feel how tragic this battle was.

Of course, this kind of tragedy was only for the Japanese army.

In any case, after this battle, the Japanese army was so frightened by Liu Rengui that they withdrew into the country and never dared to intervene in the war on the Korean Peninsula again.

And Emperor Tenchi also understood how terrifying the Tang Dynasty was, and how Japan could never defeat it.

History proves that some things still have to be solved with fists.Some people still have to be beaten to the ground before they can be truly afraid.In the thousands of years since then, Japan has not dared to covet the Central Plains again.

It was not until the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty that Japan's Toyotomi Hideyoshi unified Japan, and then he dared to enter the court again and compete with the Ming army again.As a result, that time, the ambitious Toyotomi Hideyoshi was beaten back again by a partial division of the Ming army.

From then on, Liu Rengui's career was smooth sailing, and he lived to be over 80 years old. In the last few years of his life, he was obviously a very popular minister.Even Wu Zetian admired and respected Liu Rengui very much. She once wrote to Liu Rengui, comparing him to Xiao He.

Today's Youzhou Navy and Tianjin Port have begun to take shape, especially the Tianjin Port. The port was built under Liu Hua's personal instructions. It is linked to Youzhou City on the top and the counties of Hebei on the bottom. Cao Shen also understands the importance of transportation here.

The most important thing is to build a navy. In the future, whether to attack Goguryeo or Japan, the navy is indispensable. Liu Hua needs to prepare early.

After Cao Shen handed over this task to Liu Rengui, Liu Rengui was not as disappointed as Cao Shen. The newly built navy was well trained and could catch a large amount of fish, which replenished Youzhou's food. After Liu Rengui guaranteed that for up to three years, the navy would be able to Out for battle.

"Zhengze, the land of Tianjin, is located in the lower reaches of the Haihe River Basin, bordering the Bohai Sea in the east, Yanshan Mountain in the north, and Youzhou City in the west. Its role is not only to connect the north and south of Youzhou. Internally it connects the canal, and externally it connects the Bohai Sea. In other words This is the only place in the north that can communicate with the inside and outside." Cao Shen smiled and said, "My lord attaches great importance to this place, and Zheng Ze has done a good job."

"That's my responsibility!" Liu Rengui said respectfully with his hands clasped in his hands, "As the master of the bus agency, after five thousand laborers worked, the port facing the sea has been built, and it is already a veritable town."

"Is it possible to go to Liaodong by sea and land?" Cao Shen asked the purpose, hoping to quickly go to the front line by sea and land.

"The navy is still not strong enough to fight, but there is still no problem with transporting troops." Liu Rengui said.

"Luo Yi and Zhou Bo, I can rest assured that you will stay in Youzhou, so I'll leave it to you." Cao Shen said to Luo Yi and Zhou Bo again.

"No!" Luo Yi and Zhou Bo looked at each other helplessly. Their former main army had been passed down to their sons. After all, the strength of the new army they were training was still a bit inferior.

Cao Shen personally led the army, and Lu Ze, Xia Houying, and Wu Han selected the elite from the Tuntian camp to form an army, and came to the Tianjin port built by Liu Rengui.

With the arrival of the officers from the Tuntian Battalion, the entire Tianjin town finally began to function like a small village.

Because Liu Hua and Xun Xi gave Liu Rengui the guide to build the port in Tianjin, the salt field now accounts for most of the labor force in Tianjin Port, and basically every household is related to the salt field.

So it's not so much a small town as it is a large salt farm.

But now with the arrival of Cao Shen, various grassroots administrators have been brought in, and they have begun to fill in the various facilities of Tianjin Port in an orderly manner, greatly accelerating the development of Tianjin Port.

A variety of jobs and occupations, such as many shops, schools, hospitals, etc., have also begun to appear at Tianjin Port, making Tianjin develop normally like a city.

As long as you climb the city wall to see the planning of the entire city, you will find that the entire city is based on the big city as a template and is divided into five areas, but each area is sparse.

The city construction area is obviously aimed at counties with 10 people.

At this time, Liu Rengui was preparing for Cao Shen to go to sea.
