Steel Dynasty - Chapter 723

[Chapter 722 Everything is ready]

Yue Yun’s eyes wandered over the map in front of him.

This is a map covering Dengzhou and Korea. At this time, many symbols have been marked on the map, and there are also two attack routes on it.

During the Chinese New Year, he had been planning to send troops to Goryeo. The memorial and approval Xiao Ming gave him was actually very simple, asking him to do what the navy should do, which is to control the sea.

As long as they control the sea area between Dengzhou and Goryeo, and Goryeo and Japan, Dayu will be in an invincible position.

Because Japan had to rely on ships to reach Dayu, Korea also needed ships to reach Dengzhou. Therefore, as long as they gained control of the sea, they could manipulate Japan and Korea at will instead of being threatened by them.

Therefore, he has been waiting for information from Wang Xuan during this period. He needs to know where the Goryeo and Japanese naval forces are stationed.

In this operation, he gathered forty-eight of all the warships in the Great Chongqing Kingdom. A fleet of this size was enough to eliminate the navies of the two countries once and for all.

He was deep in thought when suddenly a voice sounded outside the door, “General Yue Yun.”

Hearing this voice, Yue Yun was overjoyed. He immediately opened the door and saw Wang Xuan standing outside the door.

“Commander Wang, I just thought of you and you came here. What a coincidence.” Yue Yun said in surprise, and he extended his hand as he said this.

Wang Xuan came all the way on horseback, still out of breath. When he saw Yue Yun’s outstretched hand, he smiled bitterly and said: “General Yue, why don’t you invite me to have some tea before we talk about this Korean thing?”

Yue Yun was happy in his heart, and he He personally made tea for Wang Xuan and brought it to Wang Xuan, “Now that we have the tea, it’s time to talk about the Koryo incident.”

Wang Xuan took a sip of tea, moistened his throat, and said, “The location of the Koryo Navy has been found. , In the port of Haigu City, the Goryeo Navy suffered heavy losses in the naval battle with Japan, and now there are only one hundred and twenty warships left. “

While talking, Wang Xuan took out the map of Haigu City. This is what he sent. The person was carefully drawn.

Yue Yun felt as if he had found a treasure, and he said happily: “Great, now we can finally do it, otherwise the soldiers would not be able to wait.”

“It’s not just you, the emperor can’t wait too. Many workshops have been built in Qingzhou this winter. , this spring workshop will produce goods. If the treaty ports between Goryeo and Japan cannot be opened, these goods will not be sold. “

Yue Yun nodded, he knew very well that Western merchants only purchase porcelain from Dayu .

, raw silk, tea and other items, but not interested in things like cloth.

So they could only sell these things to Goryeo and Japan.

“Is there no news about the navy of Japan?” Yue Yun asked again.

At this time, Wang Xuan frowned, “The Japanese country is much more cunning than Goryeo. They divided their navy into several different places, and there are many pirates in the Japanese country. They can become the Japanese navy at any time and want to destroy the Japanese country in one fell swoop.” The navy is difficult, so it is better to control the sea area between Goryeo and Japan and force Japan to submit. “

This is indeed troublesome and will cost them more troubles, but the top priority now is to solve the robbery of Goryeo.” Yue Yun. His eyes were stern.

Wang Xuan said what should be said and was given what should be given. He only provided information and did not care how Yue Yun dealt with Gao Li. He said: “It is not easy to come to Dengzhou. I heard that the seafood in Dengzhou is good. Yue Yun General, do you want to treat us?”

Yue Yun came to his senses. It was already noon, and it was time to eat. He said to Wang Xuan, “Of course, this Dengzhou seafood is delicious. I will take you to taste it. “

He is not afraid of anyone in the official circles of Dayu, but he is afraid of the secret guards. This is not only because the secret guards have provided them with a lot of information, but he also doubts that these secret guards are even spying on them generals.

Wang Xuan laughed. He couldn’t stop eating seafood since the last time. He couldn’t miss it this time because he was on business.

The two left the naval station and headed for Dengzhou City. Now it has become a pure military port. Other fishing boats cannot go here.

Following Yue Yun, Wang Xuan first arrived at Dengzhou City. In the city, he saw yellow-haired and red-haired businessmen from time to time. These businessmen were not from Dayu, but from the Netherlands, Portugal, Spain, France, and even the United Kingdom.

Although some of these countries were unfriendly to Chongqing, Xiao Ming did not prohibit people from doing business with these countries.

After all, it is a very common thing for the government to be cold and the economy to be hot. Everyone has to eat while fighting, but some things with strategic value are blocked.

After passing through Dengzhou City, the two went out from the east gate and arrived at another dock in Dengzhou, which is now the commercial port of Dengzhou.

At this time, many residences had been built here, and businessmen were coming in and out of these residences.

Although Wang Xuan learned from the newspaper that Dengzhou has developed rapidly in the past two years, he was still surprised when he saw it with his own eyes.

In addition to the merchant ships of foreign merchants, large fishing boats from Dengzhou were also docked at the pier. At a glance, the entire pier was filled with thousands of ships.

“Here we are, the seafood here is all freshly caught from the sea.” Yue Yun said to Wang Xuan.

Wang Xuan looked at the pier. Some fishermen were carrying seafood from the boat to the ground, and some fishermen were selling seafood directly on the pier.

In front of these fishermen, many businessmen-looking people were bargaining, and boxes of seafood were being transported away.

“It’s really breathtaking.” Wang Xuan said with emotion, “This Dengzhou city has never been so prosperous before.”

Yue Yun said with a smile: “The emperor is wise and has designated Dengzhou as a treaty port. Within three years, Dengzhou will be The state has changed drastically. I’m afraid that in another two years, the prosperity of Dengzhou City will not be inferior to that of Qingzhou.

“I didn’t believe it before, but now I do.” Wang Xuan shook his head because of gathering intelligence and establishing secrets. Wei branch, he needs to travel around the country of Chongqing.

In the past two years, he has obviously felt that the six states are getting richer and richer day by day. He used to think that many of the decrees implemented by Xiao Ming were ridiculous, but now he feels that all these decrees have their own mysteries.

With a smile on his lips, he stopped thinking about it and simply ate and drank happily with Yue Yun. After they had enjoyed enough, they returned to the Naval Station.

At this time, Liu Chen also returned from Heiyan Village. When he saw Yue Yun, he immediately stepped forward and said, “General, the Japanese country has attacked Heiyan Village. If this continues, the people will only suffer more casualties.”

Yue Yun pointed at Wang Xuan and said; “Secret Guard” The people are already here, and they have provided the location of the Koryo Navy. You must assemble the fleet today and destroy the Koryo Navy in three days. At the same time, let the marines prepare. If Goryeo refuses to accept it, we will give the King of Koryo a look. “

Liu Chen was overjoyed when he heard this. They have suffered so much this winter, and now they are finally going to take action.
