The Zhou fleet, which was expeditioning the east of the floating sea, did not take the traditional coastal route to Tanluo, but instead crossed the Black Water Ocean with advanced navigation techniques, intercepted the bend and reached Tanluo, and then launched an unexpected surprise attack according to the scheduled plan.

The Baekje Navy stationed in Tanluo was caught off guard by the Zhou fleet, but the subsequent landing battle put the Zhou army in a quagmire.

The Baekje army, which assisted in the defense of Tanluo, had already built stone walls on the mudflats. The Zhou army's several beach grabs ended in failure. After several consecutive battles, the Zhou army was unable to land. They were trapped on the sea boat and parked near the Danluo Sea.

At this moment, a typhoon hit, dark clouds were covered with strong winds, and the sky and the earth changed color.

The heavy rainstorm as dense as a line enveloped the sea and sky. On the seaside on the banks of Danluo Island, in the stormy waves, the Zhou fleet, which had reached the expedition, was broken, and sea ships were torn apart by huge waves, and a large number of people and materials on the ship sank to the bottom of the sea.

Tens of thousands of expeditionary troops were over.

In the storm, the soldiers of the Baekje army on the shore witnessed the destruction of the Zhou fleet with their own eyes. They rushed out of the fortifications regardless of everything, cheered in the heavy rain, thanking the gods for dropping the "divine wind" and sweeping away the strong enemy.

A "sacred wind" blows away the Zhou Dynasty's expeditionary army. When the news came, the Maritime Warehouse Department and King Wen of Bi were pointed out by thousands of people. Faced with the fierce discussions, they could only resign and return to Chang'an to work in vain. From then on...

Yuwen Wen stopped writing, kneaded the script he had just drafted into a ball, threw it into the trash can on the side of the desk, and looked at the heavy rain outside the window, and then fell into deep thought after a moment.

The weather at the beach changes at any time. A few days ago, when the army set out to fight, it was still sunny and clear, but now it is strong wind and heavy rain, which is obvious that a typhoon is coming.

Yuwen Wen was in Langya Port, Jiaozhou at this time. According to previous "surveying and mapping", the latitudes of Langya Port and Danluo Island are similar, and the latitudes of Langya Port are somewhat northerly. In other words, the typhoon hits the Jiaozhou area and will also have an impact on Danluo Island in the east and southerly directions.

Yuwen Wen, who was on the shore, felt the power of the typhoon in a safe room and felt a little uneasy because if the fleet he sent could not land on Danluo Island in time, it would probably be blown away by a "kamikaze" (typhoon) just like the Mongolian Yuan army that attacked Japan.

So, what is the situation in Danlu now?

Without radio communication, Yuwen Wen could not know what the truth was in Danluo Island far east, and the royal palace did not have time to cultivate carrier pigeons in Xiao Huang, so his fleet could not use the flying pigeons to deliver messages to him.

Therefore, Yuwen Wen could only rely on guessing that if according to the combat plan formulated before the war, as long as he did not encounter any force majeure such as sea monsters or storms while sailing across the sea, the war on Danluo Island should have been settled at this time.

Even if the regime on Danluo Island was precautioned, even if it was precautionary, it would be impossible to resist the Zhou army that used gunpowder weapons to thunder and catapults. The quick victory of "destroying this morning food" was obviously bound to happen.

Even if the other party has assisted the defense, even if the other party builds stone walls or wooden fences on the mudflats in advance, it cannot withstand the "gunpowder assault wave" that lands in the Zhou army.

The more Baekje troops assisting in defense, the more they die, and the more they will not give up in the future, making the Zhou army stationed in Tanluo unpredictable.

As he thought about it, Yuwen Wen's mood gradually improved. Since he learned that the fleet returning to the flight was attacked near Danluo Island, losing five ships and more than 100,000 taels of silver, he has really "out of trouble".

Of course, you have to be beaten back when you are slapped in the face, but you have to be beaten accurately and hit the master behind the scenes in the face.

Who is the mastermind behind the scenes? Yuwen Wen has no direct evidence, but there is indirect evidence.

In recent years, he arranged a fleet to go to Japan to do business many times. The fleet was followed by unidentified ships on the coast of Hakata, Japan many times. Taking into account multiple factors, Yuwen Wen judged that the people who followed him before and now intercepted his fleet may not be simple.

It has exceeded the level of seeking wealth and has the intention of blocking the East-West route. If there is a behind-the-scenes envoy behind it, it can be confirmed that it is Baekje.

Baekje and Japan have had a very unusual relationship for a century and can be regarded as a "loving couple". As the "third party", Zhou Guo, now intervenes in this "happy marriage", will inevitably lead to dissatisfaction from one of them, Baekje.

Baekje has a great influence on Japan. Many of the new Japanese aristocrats who were formerly the Fulai family and had close ties with Baekje. Baekje has been constantly exporting Buddhism, such as "advanced religion" to Japan and accepting "study abroad monks" from Japan, so the relationship between the two countries has become increasingly close.

A happy marriage that was as good as a mix of oil in honey, but now it is intervened by Zhou Guo halfway, so it would be strange if Baekje doesn't get angry.

Yuwen Wen brought a sandalwood Buddha statue before and asked Zhang Yu to send it to Japan, which aroused strong response from the other party and worshipped it as a magical tool. How could Baekje get such a big gift from Yuwen Wen?

It's like a miserable husband. He saw the domineering president sending his wife a huge diamond, a mansion, a luxury car, and a candlelight dinner for the two. What should I do if I'm short of money and empty-handed?

Don't be timid, stab with a knife.

If Yuwen Wen was that husband, he would have made such a choice, so he intended to be Yuwen Yun, who was involved in Yuchi Chifan, died.

Now that Baekje has become a miserable husband, the other party will definitely make a similar choice. If he can't play on the surface, he will "violently break the deadlock". Yu Wen Wen empathizes with this, and while sympathizing, he decides to "violently break the deadlock."

Otherwise, if you don’t understand your thoughts, you won’t be able to sleep well.

Therefore, the Maritime Bureau issued a "Langya Bang" in the famous port of Langyan Port, a famous port in ancient times, recruited desperate people to follow the official army to expedition on the sea. After a long time of struggle, it was very disturbing. It was just to deliberately let the detailed works of the pirates in the port area spread the news to Baekje.

Give Baekje time to prepare, send troops to assist in the defense of Danluo, and dispatched water and land to wait for the rabbit on Danluo Island, and then he took it all in a slap.

The Danluo Kingdom on Danluo Island is across the strait from Baekje in the north. Now it is the other country of vassal state, so Baekje of course has to be covered. Danluo Island is the Jeju Island in later generations. Such a key land at sea, once Yuwen Wen has the opportunity and excuses, he will naturally have to make an idea.

Now that there is an excuse, it is still a legitimate excuse, so if you can deal with Baekje and let the other party know each other, it would be a good thing to kill two birds with one stone.

But what if good things turn into bad things and the Zhou fleet expedition to Tanluo is destroyed by the "Kamikaze"?

Yuwen Wen is ready for this. If he is so unlucky, he will send envoys to Baekje and Danluo to express his attitude:

Misunderstandings, these are all misunderstandings. Don’t make too much guesses, so as not to hurt the harmony.

Then immediately organize a second expeditionary force to take revenge.

He got up and walked to the window, quietly watching the heavy rain outside the window, and after a moment he touched his moustache and smiled slightly.

For the Maritime Bureau, there is no island in the East China Sea that the expeditionary army cannot take down. If there is one, then another one will come.
