Became a feudal lord in the late Northern Song Dynasty

Chapter 236 The man-eating monster lands in the east

An icy wind blew slowly from the sea, and the sunlight reflected on the horizon had a metallic sheen, making people feel no warmth. Only the fleet flying friendly flags around them could give the soldiers on board some comfort.

The cabin was kept as clean as possible, but vomit and fainted people could still be seen everywhere. The Han army had always been proud of its good logistics, but now even bringing ten times more military doctors could not stop this situation.

Most of the soldiers in the Han army have adapted to life on horseback since childhood, but if they were allowed to stay in a bumpy cabin for a day, all kinds of problems that were impossible to have would immediately appear. The days of drifting on the sea made them feel uncomfortable. People feel hopeless.

Fortunately, after boarding the ship, the leading officers on each ship read out the order of the King of Han, so that everyone knew clearly the goal of this battle, and there was a royal scorpion hanging above the big ship in the center of the fleet, which meant that the King of Han was there. In this fleet, the spirit of the army is always high.

"Actually, I don't understand why I continue to fight."

Kang Gongbi sat on the deck with a pale face, and the desolate sea breeze made him take a breath.

"The people of Yan have been following the King of Han since he started his career. They fight on foot like iron and on horseback like wind. However, this navy cannot be trained overnight. In the past, Cao Cao directly lost the foundation of unifying the world in the battle of Chibi. The north Human beings are not resistant to fighting on water. If we cross the ocean, will our soldiers be able to fight again?"

"This little sea water is not enough to make the Han soldiers feel dejected."

When Kang Gongbi heard this, he couldn't say anything except a bitter smile.

Yeluyu raised his head when he heard this and said perfunctorily: "They say I'm sick and can't welcome guests."

Food and slaves from Goryeo are being continuously transported back to the Jin Kingdom to maintain the rule of the Jurchen dignitaries.

The ice and snow failed to kill them, and the Liao army failed to defeat them, but the life of extravagance and extravagance was gradually getting into their bones. The dividends brought by the war allowed all the Jurchens to live a good life. However, with the defeat of the war, Many negative effects begin to appear early.

"Report to the master, Meng'an from the Nine Camps of the distant chariot has sent people to present gifts."

When they raised an army in their hometown, they were unstoppable.

Previously, Wan Yanchang led his army to pacify this area. Under his leadership, the Jin army continued to suppress the rebellion here with brutal methods. The number of Khitans and Xi people who dared to resist with swords became fewer and fewer, but they still continue to do so.

Each ship generally transmits simple command messages through flag orders. If more detailed command messages are required, they are usually transmitted through small boats, which is inconvenient.

It is not impossible to sail from Yandi to Goryeo, but you do need to replenish a lot of supplies along the way. Moreover, the journey is long and the sea is thousands of miles away. Even if there is a favorable wind, it will take more than a month to sail. If there is even the slightest bump in the wind and waves, the personnel and the ship will be greatly damaged. .

To the east of Zhongjing Road is the area where rebellions of the Jin Kingdom occurred frequently. The majority of the local people are Khitan and Xi tribes, and there are many mountains and rivers. When the Jin people went south to destroy the Liao Dynasty, the local people tried their best to stop the Jin army, and were massacred again and again.

There is no hope for the days at sea. People count the sunrise and sunset, and pray to reach their destination as soon as possible while smelling vomit.

After the flag order was issued, the fleet, which had been floating on the sea for a long time, began to fill up its sails and turned neatly.

The Jin people are not without ships at sea. Although they are also weak, as long as they set up some obstacles along the way and let the navy drag the Han fleet at sea for a period of time, lack of food and disease will make the Han army self-defeating. Therefore, Basically, the Jin court was not worried that the Han army would suddenly appear in Goryeo.

From August to September, the Han army has been floating on the sea for more than half a month. In a few days, it will be the ninth day of September. In the Central Plains, it is called the Double Ninth Festival. In the Jin Kingdom, it is called the Double Ninth Festival. The custom is not to insert all over the country. Instead of drinking rice wine with Cornus officinalis, they hunted in autumn to worship heaven, and even the emperor had to participate in person.

"Here."

The housekeeper left, but Yelu Yujian had no intention of reading anymore. He stared blankly at the desk next to him. After pausing for a while, he suddenly realized that he was in a daze. He rubbed his face and let out a long sigh.

The people sent by Jiu Meng'an can be absent today, but they will be hunting in a few days. Yelu Yujian doesn't like this kind of group gathering scene because his identity is very embarrassing. When the Jin people went south, he served as the leader. Wanyanchang massacred the Liao soldiers and Xi people tribe in Zhongjing Road, and Yelu Yujian was among them to lead the way. Therefore, the officials and soldiers from the latter's background hated him extremely.

The wealthy and powerful people simply looked down on him.

Yelu Yujian opened the dark drawer of the desk and took out a letter that he had read several times. His eyes hesitated. He wanted to find a reason to feel at ease, so he read the contents of the letter again.

After a long time, the butler's voice called him back to reality again.

"Master, someone from the government is here, asking if the master has prepared Chongjiu's gift."

"I'm ready."

Yelu Yujian calmed down and said slowly: "Tell the person who came, it will be done by then."

The Jin people were preparing to celebrate the festival happily in their homeland of Liao Kingdom. Yeluyu saw clearly that he had contributed to this. He could use many reasons to explain it to himself, but when he sat alone, he could not help but think of some things in his heart. People and things that cannot be avoided.

Some people had faced this kind of torture like him, so when Yan Di just raised the anti-Jin banner, they abandoned their official positions in the Jin Kingdom, fled to Yan Di under the pursuit of the Jin army, and worked under the tent of the King of Han.

Yelu Yujian put down the letter and stood up expressionlessly.

A few days later, there was no one behind the desk.

Jinzhou is the easternmost state on Zhongjing Road, adjacent to the Bohai Sea.

Its location itself is quite important, but when the Jin people invaded, they killed a lot of people. The local Xi and Khitan people rebelled continuously, so that there were only one or two cities in Jinzhou, and abandoned villages and fields could often be seen in the wild.

The land was fertilized with flesh and blood, but only weeds grew wildly among the rugged bones.

The sound of Jurchen horse hooves sounded in the wild, and several Jurchen young men were excitedly chasing their prey - deer, rabbits, or anything that moved, including several escaped slaves.

They stumbled and ran through the withered grass, their bodies constantly getting scars scratched by the grass.

The arrow finally shot directly over, and it was very accurate. It passed through the forehead from the back of the head. The arrow was glowing with blood and metal luster at the same time. When the entourage of the Jurchen dignitaries came on horseback, what they saw was This scene.

There are not many Jurchens, not to mention the years of war. Most of the elite troops are placed in the west and south. Most of the local defenders were originally surrendered troops, including Khitans, Xi people, and Han people.

The dead bodies on the ground were bundled with several rabbits.

Among these Jurchens, there was Meng An, who was regarded as a high-ranking official in Jinzhou. Originally, the accompanying soldiers and horses should have adapted to this scene, but at this time, several of the cavalrymen suddenly drew their sabers, and the horses neighed. Then they rushed straight towards the Meng An.

After a while, there were several corpses on the ground, and two of the cavalrymen who suddenly burst out were missing. The remaining soldiers who were frightened around them shouted: "We are all soldiers of the old Liao Dynasty. We saw this How can I endure it any longer when my elders in my hometown are being ravaged by a golden dog?

The King of Han's army will arrive soon. Come with us to attack Jinzhou to welcome the King of Han! "
