Reborn Wu Dalang

Above the sea, the wind and waves are raging.

Yang Shi stood at the bow of the boat, letting the sea water splash on his body, his expression didn't change at all.

He is over 60 years old, but his body is extremely tough.Facing the sea, he only has endless heroic feelings, but not the slightest panic.

"Lord Huyan, Liangshan's Double Whip Hu Yanzhuo is also your clansman, but that's it?" Yang Shi said.

"Not bad!" A 30-year-old youth stood beside him and nodded.

This person is called Hu Yanqing, and he was the commander of the Ping Navy in the late Northern Song Dynasty.He is proficient in languages ​​of various countries. In history, he once went out to Jurchen with Ma Zhi and discussed with Jurchen to destroy Liao together.This person is often mentioned in the romance novels of later generations, and he is highly praised.He is also a descendant of Hu Yanzan, the famous founder of the Song Dynasty, and his seniority is extremely high. Although he is younger than Huyan Zhuo, his seniority is two generations higher than Huyan Zhuo.

"After coming back from Koryo this time, if Wu Dong is still unwilling to submit to the imperial court, you can go to Hedong and persuade Hu Yanzhuo and Hu Yanting's father and son to abandon the dark and turn to the bright, are you willing?" Yang Shi said.

"Of course I am willing!" Hu Yanting nodded.

Yang Shi took a deep breath, and a smile appeared on his face.Although the situation in the world is a bit difficult now, and Wu Dong, the rebel, has grown bigger, it is not without a solution.He felt that as long as the imperial court worked hard, it would be extremely easy to wipe out the rebels.

"Jiangnan and Sichuan are rich places in the world, and they are all under the control of the imperial court! It's just that Jiangnan has just experienced the disaster of Fangla, and it will take time to recover. The grain production of these two places far exceeds that of the north, and The biggest problem in Liangshan today is food! They are militaristic, even though they have conquered a large area of ​​territory, but without food, they will collapse on their own in a short time, and the people in the north will inevitably rise up, and then it will be their end." Yang Shi added laughed.

Until now, almost all the officials from top to bottom of the imperial court believed that Liangshan had a food problem. As long as the smuggling of food was controlled, it would not be difficult to deal with Liangshan.

"The bandit is a bandit after all. It is wishful thinking to want to win the world! As a citizen of the Song Dynasty, he has no loyalty. Wu Dong deserves death, and everyone in Liangshan deserves death! Mr. That’s right, if we have to go to Goryeo to convince Wudong, in my opinion, we should send troops to wipe out these rebels directly.” Hu Yanting said.

"The rebels also have a lot of troops. If we send troops to wipe them out, the world will suffer another disaster. This is definitely not what I want to see." Yang Shi shook his head.

"Mister's benevolence and righteousness, I admire you!" Hu Yanqing said.

The boat the two of them were on was provided by the Dengzhou Navy. At this moment, when they heard the conversation between the two, the sailors and boatmen next to them showed disdainful expressions on their faces.Liangshan conquered Dengzhou before conquering Koryo, and Ruan Xiaowu was in charge of the Dengzhou Navy and Dengzhou Customs. On the surface, they were officers and soldiers of the imperial court, but in fact they were all subordinates of the Liangshan Navy.

The boat set off in the morning, and had just traveled for less than an hour, when suddenly countless large boats appeared in the distance!Yang Shi and Hu Yanqing were originally admiring the scenery at the bow of the boat, but their expressions changed drastically at this moment.

"What's going on here? Why are there so many big ships on the opposite side?" Hu Yanqing hurriedly called the navy generals on board and asked.

"Those should be warships of the Liangshan Navy." The general said flatly.

"Quick, get out of here!" Hu Yanting gave an order.

"Lord Huyan, you don't know. The warships of the Liangshan Navy are extremely fast. It is impossible for us to escape now. I think it's better to stay here." The general said again.

"Confused! Hurry back!" Hu Yanqing shouted.

"Okay, I'll give it a try." The general pouted.

But even though the general said so, in fact the ship didn't move at all. When Hu Yanqing was anxious to call the general over again, Liang Shan's naval warships had already surrounded the ship.

There are hundreds of big ships in total, and every big ship is full of soldiers, and all the soldiers hold strong bows in their hands!The leading large ship was more than 40 feet long and more than ten feet wide. Yang Shi and Hu Yanqing had never seen such a large ship before, and they were stunned for a while.

"There is such a big ship in this world?" Hu Yanting exclaimed after a long time.

What they were on was already the largest ship in the Dengzhou Navy, but compared with this ship, it was like a baby standing in front of an adult.

Soon more than ten wooden boards were erected from the opposite boat, and the two boats were connected.

Countless soldiers rushed over from the opposite side, and the soldiers on this side did not stop them, but looked at those people with a smile.After a while, a general came from the opposite side, and the soldiers saluted when they saw this general.He was only in his 20s, with a hearty smile on his face, and when he arrived on the big ship, he immediately cupped his hands and said, "Mr. Yang Shi, General Huyan, has known his name for a long time."

Yang Shi's self-cultivation is very good, even in this dangerous moment, his expression is still calm, and he only listened to him: "Who is your Excellency?"

The young general smiled and said, "This is Ruan Xiaoqi, commander of the Liangshan Navy's First Army, you two must have never heard of my name?"

Yang Shi and Hu Yanqing were taken aback, they had never heard of Ruan Xiaoqi's name.Over the years, Liangshan's power has become stronger and bigger, and the area it occupies has also become bigger and bigger. However, only Wu Dong, Lin Chong, Hua Rong, Yue Fei, Han Shizhong, etc. are famous in Liangshan, and the court knows very little about the rest of the generals.However, both of them knew that under the governor of Liangshan, the largest was the head of the army, and below the head of the army was the leader of the army.This person is only in his 20s, but he is already the leader of an army, and his status seems to be very important.

"It turned out to be General Ruan. I don't know what advice I can give." Yang Shi said.

"Our chief governor heard that the two are going to Korea, so he specially ordered me to meet them." Ruan Xiaoqi smiled.

In fact, Yang Shi and Hu Yanqing had just left Bianliang, and the Liangshan intelligence department got the news.When the two came to Dengzhou, the relevant information had been sent to Korea, and Wu Dong had also given instructions.Ruan Xiaoqi's navy was in the Jizhou area, so Wu Dong sent them to fetch the two.

"The news is so fast!" Yang Shi frowned. He thought his actions were top secret, but he didn't expect that Liang Shan already knew.

"The two of you, please come aboard our boat." Ruan Xiaoqi laughed again.

"No need! I'm a courtier of the Great Song Dynasty, so I'll just be on the boat of the Dengzhou Navy." Yang Shi shook his head.

"To be honest, the emperor of the Liao Kingdom is on our ship. He heard that the two are here, and he also wants to meet the two." Ruan Xiaoqi said again.

"What? The emperor of the Liao Kingdom?" The two of them stayed there for a while. Although they knew that Liangshan defeated the Liao Kingdom, they did not expect that the emperor of the Liao Kingdom was actually on the sea.After a while, Yang Shi nodded, no longer refusing.After the two of them arrived on the boat, they felt more obvious about the size of the boat.Standing on this big boat, the boats next to it are all smaller.Huge, vast, magnificent, all words are not enough to describe this ship.

"Good boat!" Yang Shi couldn't help admiring.

"This ship was developed by more than ten shipyards in Koryo for several years. In order to develop this treasure ship, almost all the well-known shipbuilders in the south of the Yangtze River were invited to Koryo. There are only ten ships in the entire Liangshan. See you today Only one of them arrived. This ship is 44 feet long and [-] feet wide. It can house [-] officers and soldiers, and there are cannons on it. It is invincible above the sea." Ruan Xiaoqi said with a smile.

Originally, such a treasure ship only appeared in the early Ming Dynasty. Zheng He sailed to the West in a treasure ship of this size. Now in Koryo, Liangshan has developed such a huge treasure ship.

Yang Shi frowned, he didn't know what artillery was.But this ship is so huge, and there are so many soldiers on it, I am afraid that the navy of Song Dynasty will not be able to resist such a treasure ship.However, although he was worried, he didn't take it too seriously. Wars in the Central Plains have always been dominated by land warfare. No matter how big Liangshan's ships are, no matter how strong the navy is, the threat to Song Dynasty is extremely limited.In his heart, the ship was finally classified as a gimmick.

When he came to the door of the cabin, Yang Shi tidied up his clothes first.In any case, the people sitting inside are all the kings of the Liao Kingdom, who used to sit on an equal footing with the emperors of the Song Dynasty. Even if he has stepped down now, he must maintain a certain degree of respect.

The cabin is extremely spacious and the interior is extremely bright. If they were not on the sea, they would have thought they were in the hall of a wealthy family.There were several people sitting in the cabin, one of them was Liao Emperor Yelu Yanxi, and the rest were Xiao Fengxian, Xiao Sixian, Li Chuwen, Xiao Qian and others.These people's complexions are not very good, after all, they are subjugated monarchs and ministers, how can they feel better.

"Yang Shi of the Song Dynasty met His Majesty the Emperor of Liao Kingdom!" Although Yang Shi did not bow down, he bowed and saluted.

"He is no longer His Majesty the Emperor. Just two days ago, the governor sent a decree, and this person has been renamed the King of Liao." Ruan Xiaoqi reminded from the side.

"How can you dare to make His Majesty the Emperor of Liao the King of Liao?" Yang Shi turned his head and asked.

"What can you do? We destroyed the Liao Kingdom and captured them, not to mention being reduced to the Liao King, even if they were killed directly, it's nothing." Ruan Xiaoqi said a little funny.

At the beginning, Zhu Wu had a lot of respect for these monarchs and ministers of the Liao Kingdom, but Ruan Xiaoqi was born as a fisherman and had a free and easy temper on weekdays, so he didn't have the slightest respect for these monarchs and ministers of the Liao Kingdom.Now that he said such words, the monarchs and ministers of the Liao Kingdom could only sigh secretly, and no one dared to open their mouths to refute.

"The Liao Kingdom was destroyed, it was God's will, not your Liangshan ability! Don't worry, your Majesty, after I go to Koryo, I will definitely persuade Wu Dong to surrender to the Song Dynasty. As for you, you can also go to Bianliang in the future. Your Majesty has arrived in Bianliang Afterwards, I, Song Dynasty, will still treat you like a king." Yang Shi said again.

"Persuade Wu Dong to return to Song Dynasty?" Yelu Yanxi and others stayed there after hearing this, they couldn't believe it.Now Liangshan has occupied the sixteen prefectures of Hedong, Liaodong, and Yanyun, and most of the whole north is under Liangshan's control. Liangshan's army is far stronger than Song Dynasty. How can Liangshan surrender to Song Dynasty now?Could it be that the governor of Liangshan wanted to be a slave by nature?Or is he a lunatic, a fool?Even if he is willing to surrender to the Song Dynasty, I am afraid that his generals will never agree?

After all, Liao people are Liao people. Although they lost their country, they are by no means as pedantic as Yang Shi.In the hearts of Yelu Yanxi and others, conquering the world depends on the sword, not the mouth.

Yang Shi is a well-known Confucian in the world, they had heard of it in Liao Kingdom before, but after hearing Yang Shi's words now, they underestimated him a lot.But soon Yang Shi started chatting with these people. He talked eloquently, Confucian classic sentences kept protruding from his mouth, and he expressed his views on many world affairs from time to time. Yelu Yanxi and others beside him He also admired him extremely, thinking that this person is really not in vain, maybe this person can really convince Wu Dong.And Ruan Xiaoqi was dizzy when he heard it. Although he had learned some characters over the years, how could he understand the long speeches of great Confucians?

The speed of the treasure ship was extremely fast. In just two days, the treasure ship arrived at the wharf of Incheon Port, and finally stopped at this moment.
