Chapter ninety-one.
Pyongyang Prefecture is a little too late to stay.
There was no way, there were too many things to grab. The mules and cows brought by the army were filled with money every day. The Li Dynasty gentry in the city were still in and out every day, and they were as thick as Mao Jue, and they couldn't stand it anymore.
In addition, Sun Yuanhua, the Shandong soldiers and more than 10,000 Huaibei soldiers came to help, which made him find out that it was not good. On May 20, put on the things, and Mao Wenlong marched towards Xiongjin Port while the reluctant Li Dynasty gentry farewell.
The trophy mule cannot be pulled back, so it can only be loaded with a ship. Fortunately, there are many ships in Dongjiang Town.
This place is small enough, and he dared not resist the Dongjiang army at all. Mao Wenlong didn't even call him and occupied it. The city guard didn't even dare to let go.
However, Mao Jue found some treasures in this small place.
There are no artificial beaches these days. There are either stones or rotten wood on the beach. The sea breeze is fierce, and the people's robes are shaking violently. However, just next to the harbor, large wood like mountains is piled up there. Although several large pits on the mudflats have accumulated, Mao Jue can still recognize these things at a glance after working in the landscape shipyard.
Make a pond!
It was obvious that when the Gaoli people nearby were not robbed, why was his general interested in these big pits? Wen Meng, who accompanied him, couldn't help but yawn secretly. Suyi's big watery eyes looked around curiously as she watched Mao Jue knock on the big woods.
He was very excited to fiddle with it for a while, and Mao Jue waved his hand backwards.
"Get two nearby people to come, I will ask them if you have something to do!"
"Yes! Mr. Jiang!"
Wishing to leave for a while, Wen Meng sneaked to the nearby fishing village. In a short while, three old Goryeo fishermen wearing short clothes and still sand on their arms were carried by him. It was really not easy to live in this era. Their big cakes were wrinkled like the Loess Plateau. Before Wen Meng could speak, her legs were soft and she knelt on the ground. She spoke Korean for a while, and Mao Jue's forehead was leaping.
Fortunately, this is the Li Korean, known as Little China. The most important thing is that he can speak Chinese. Wen Meng went to the city and brought Mao Jue a scholar back.
Unlike the Erwuzi like the upper Jinlian, this guy dared not to have sex with Mao Jue. Although he didn't kneel down, his waist was bent like an earthworm. He first translated Mao Jue's question to the two old fishermen, and then nodded before they could answer.
"General of the Shangguo, you don't need to ask them. Just know that this is the shipyard where our General Li Shunchen and General Li prepared for war during the Japanese turtle pirates back then. It was built here."
"Li Sun-sen, no wonder!"
This big wood is all ship-made. Although it is not well maintained and exposed to wind and sun, it has been treated with anti-corrosion and has been dry for at least ten years. It has been picked and selected, and most of it can still be used. Mao Jue's eyes were really shining, and he reached out and pressed the wood, and then turned his head.
"Are there any shipmakers who will build warships nearby?"
"Returning to the general of Shangguo, there should be no more. Our dynasty admires the Celestial Empire and is also closed to the country. If we don't use warships, the craftsmen will be disbanded. Now we can only build some small fishing boats."
"But the young ancestor was once an officer of Xiong Jinjiang. He kept the drawings of the turtle boat in his home. If the general refuses to abandon him, the young man is willing to offer it to the general!"
Turtle boat? Mao Jue is really not interested. Although this thing defeated Hideyoshi Toyotomi back then, it was suitable for walking near the sea. It would not work if it was a little farther away. Now he really needs a boat. Not to mention Qian Zeng, the manager who brought goods to Jiangnan, just fishing in the ocean requires a lot of big boats.
However, the turtle boat is useless, and this person is still useful. After all, his ancestors were also craftsmen, so they knew it a little. The scholar obviously wanted to seek rewards, but he didn't want Mao Jue to wave his hand lightly.
"Starting today, you are the masterpiece of this general! I will let Fatty Su of our army fight with you later. In the past few days, you will restore the shipyard to me!"
Almost crying, the scholar hurriedly knelt on the ground and kowtowed pitifully.
"God of General! Xiaosheng's family still has the old mother, wife, daughter and young son who need to support him! I hope Xiaosheng will be in the provincial examination this year! I really can't get out of here, so I'm asking the general of the Celestial Dynasty to give up his hands!"
"Oh? Do you still have family?"
His eyes were twitching, and then Mao Jue turned his head with a plain expression again: "Old Wen has raided his house together. If the military orders of the general are not completed, the whole family will be scattered! It is also considered his filial piety."
Scholar: “…………”
This unexpected discovery made Mao Jue very excited. He walked around the ruins of Xiongjin Shipyard and then walked lazily towards the small town. While walking, he still remembered how he could dominate this piece of tyrant. It really didn't work. He dragged the wood back and started construction of ships in Tieshan.
As for the drawings, foreign girls have been to Spain, which is an old colonial empire. She should know a little, right? The drawings she had seen before had to be searched and slashed. The boat is so important.
He was so stunning that he did not realize something was wrong until he entered the yard on the second floor of the city guard mansion that Mao Jue discovered something was wrong. Today's guards seemed to be particularly energetic, with their waists straight and a lot more.
At the entrance of the main hall, Mao Youde happened to come out. When he saw Mao Jue, he immediately pulled his sleeve in happily and said while walking.
"Shis Mao also sent someone to find the young general! There is someone from Li Chao who has meat to cut!"
"Oh? Who came?"
"Give the government and financial support to the government!"
…………
But a big man came. The Li Dynasty did not have a high concentration of power like the Ming Dynasty. Sometimes these gentry families had a greater say than the Li Dynasty. They led the political discussions, and they were the clique leader in power. The struggle of the Dongjiang army in Nanhai Road and Ping'an North Road finally made this old guy unable to sit still. He actually came to Xiongjin in person.
However, this old guy came to provoke a military force to punish him. As soon as Mao Jue entered the door, he heard the stiff Beidiyan roaring in anger.
"Governor Mao! Our dynasty relies on the Celestial Empire and pays tribute every year, and it continues every year. Now, Jiannu is burning, killing and plundering in the territory of the country, and the Celestial Empire is watching! Are the generals not afraid of the emperor of the Shangguo? "
Although he was angry, this old guy really had no tricks to deal with Mao Wenlong, so he sued the parents again. His face was as deep as water. Before Mao Wenlong could say anything, Mao Youde suddenly started shouting excitedly at the door.
"Shishuai! The young general has arrived!"
This time he poked the hornet's nest and turned around to see Mao Jue come in. The old guy's face turned like his official uniform, blue and purple, and extremely furious, running to Mao Jue at a speed that was not consistent with his age, reached out and grabbed his collar.
"A general who is a useless person, our dynasty will entrust Tieshan Yizhou to your concubine's son. How can you guard the border? Let the savages of Jianzhou poison our dynasty, and the land is barren! Useless food! I must study your book with the emperor of Shangguo!"
It was obvious that he was scolding Sang and scolding Mao Jue. The old guy also lit Mao Wenlong, but the one he was most afraid of was this one and suddenly pushed the old guy away. Mao Jue sorted out his collar and hummed slowly.
"Old discussions on politics! You can eat randomly, but you can't talk randomly. When will Tieshan and Yizhou become the defense zones of our town!"
"In the early years, your father entered my Li Dynasty and was in chaos in Dingmao. Ruzhen swears to defend the northern border with the country! As a result, the Tatars invaded every year. Every year, our dynasty had more than 100,000 stones of rice. Did they feed the dogs?"
He was so angry that this old man was speechless. Mao Wenlong's cheeks were so angry that he bulged. But at this time, Mao Jue was even more calm than him, an old politician, with a surprised look and spread his hands in shock.
"Old discussing politics, your nephew doesn't say that!"
"Brother Jin was so arrogant at the beginning. He claimed that the army of the Kingdom could fight ten with one and no one could use our town to help guard the city. So I moved the defense line away and handed over all the land account books and defenses in Yizhou to him. Didn't he tell you?"
It seems that Jinlian really didn't dare to say that the old guy was proud of his chest.
"Jinlian is a civil servant, what evidence do you have? Slander our ministers!"
This time, he was too lazy to argue with him. Mao Jue took out a document from his arms and handed it to the old fox who was over 50 years old. He reached out and opened it with disdain. At first glance, the old guy almost vomited blood.
A political taboo is said to be OK, but don’t put it in the pen. The Jinlian was really blinded. In the name of the two dynasties, it was clearly written that the return of the Tieshan Mountain in Yizhou was returned to the Li Dynasty. There was no need for Dongjiang to support one soldier. With this thing in hand, all the wars would have to be carried by Jinlian and Li Chao himself.
However, he is worthy of being an old politician and has a thick-skinned face. Mao Jue didn't pay attention. Jin Zidian actually reached out to tear up the official letter, opened his mouth, swallowed the broken paper scraps into his stomach. Seeing that Mao Jue had no time to stop him, he was humming there.
"Oh! Old Disciplinary, what are you doing?"
Before the old guy could show a proud look, Mao Jue was too young, and his next sentence almost vomited blood from this big man below the Li family, who was more than ten thousand people than the Li family.
"This is a copy! Mr., the original copy has been reported to the court! Why are you... going to do it?"
"Little beast, I..."
The cerebral thrombosis was almost out of breath, and he staggered in confusion. The old guy finally drooped his head listlessly like a frosted eggplant.
"Jiannu walked around Huangzhou and was heading straight to Gyeonggi Province. Our dynasty needs reinforcements from the Celestial Empire!"
This is how he finally admitted his fault. After waiting for Mao Wenlong to set up the conditions and watched the fun for a long time, the old guy was so thick-skinned that he wanted to hit him twice. He stood up with a warm heart and clasped his fists.
"Old discussing politics, Mao, as a general of the court, naturally took it as his mission to protect the people and the vassal state. However, I am in trouble in Dongjiang! If the food is not enough, my clothes are not covered, and your Majesty is not enough to be hungry soldiers! He is really determined to kill the thief and is powerless to turn the world back!"
On the other side, Mao Jue was very naive and blinked his eyes stupidly.
