Chapter 160: A big hole was dug

Deng Yufu looked awkward and quietly pulled Zhao Xing aside, whispering the reason: "The judgment is signed, this word...can't be used randomly...this word..."

Deng Yufu looked around, fearing that people would hear him and drag Zhao Xing to the leeward, and quietly explained the origin of the word "owner": According to historical records, Liu Piao, the eldest princess of Tao in the Western Han Dynasty, who was the Grand Master Dou, raised a little boy Dong Yan as a face-to-face. This incident reached the ears of Emperor Wu of Han Liu Che. Once, the princess said she was sick and did not pay tribute. Emperor Wu of Han was happy and went to the princess's mansion to visit her in person. After entering the door, Emperor Wu of Han asked Liu Piao straight to the point: "I would like to visit the owner."

”

When Master Dou heard this, he was extremely frightened and ashamed, but he did not dare to hide it. So he hurriedly knelt on the ground and kowtowed to apologize, and shyly asked someone to call Dong Yan out to see him. Because Emperor Wu of Han also had a hobby of being a beautiful man, he not only did not blame Dong Yan, but also rewarded Dong Yan with some things, which was very meaningless. During the meal, Emperor Wu of Han did not call Dong Yan the name, but kept calling him "the master", so that "Dong Jun is favored by everyone in the world."

The word "prostitute" also had the meaning of "beautiful" before the Western Han Dynasty. Huo Qubing served as "prostitute Yao's lieutenant". The "prostitute Yao" here means brave and easy-going appearance, and also refers to a handsome man. After this incident, the meaning of the word "prostitute" changed. It is closely linked to "prostitute" and becomes "prostitute". The original meaning is "Liu Piao's male trick", and later "prostitute" became a verb - who is prostitute, and the prostitute is the owner!

Zhao Xing was ashamed: It turns out that the word "owner" has had the same meaning from ancient times to the present, and is used to ravage. In ancient times, "prostitution" was the body of "owner", and later "traitor" was his will.

It seems that this word cannot be said in Japanese, and cannot be associated with the word "weiming". If you have to say it in Japanese, the official is "weiming", and I am "owner" - this word should be more glass and glass, and it is the kind of glass that prefers SM.

What could Zhao Xing say at this time, especially when he brought a descendant of "Yuan Yingming" on the ship, how could he explain it clearly?

His eyes rolled, and Zhao Xing decided to take what he said just now as if he hadn't heard. He blew his clothes on his body with a serious expression, walked to Brother Jiawen solemnly, and said, "So good... From now on, let the Liao people be the 'owners' of this sea area. We should prostitute prostitutes, and we should ravage - it can be ravaged."

Deng Yufu, who was born in the Song Dynasty, applauded: "Yes! The master should be the one who should be the one who should be the one who should be the one who should be the one who should be the one who should be the one who should be the one who should be the one who should be the one who should be the one who should be the one who should be the one who should be the one who should be the one who should be the one who should be the one who should be the one who should be the one who should be the one who should be the one who should be the one who should be the one who should be the one who should be the one who should be the one who should be the one who should be the one who should be the one who should be the one who should be the one who should be the one who should be the one who should be the one who should be the one who should be the one who should be the one who should be the one who should be the one who should be the one who should be the one who should be the one who should be the one who should be the one who should be the one who should be the one who should be

Zhao Xing took a breath: "What I just said is right. In the future, the Liao people will be the 'owners' in this area. They will pay taxes to me on time, and all rights and interests are represented by me... Wherever my eyes reach, all ships - even if they are wooden boards, will be taxed on me. I have the right to withhold any floating objects that dare to steal my Song Dynasty taxes."

Jia Wen Qingchen smiled, and he spoke for the first time: "Sir, there are many fish that jump out of the water on the sea. They are floating on the sea, breathing free air and basking in the free sun. Do you want them to tax them too?"

Zhao Xing improperly said: "...It's better not to let me see it. If I find it, I will order them to learn my tax laws. Otherwise, I will use fishing nets to make them understand the rules."

Zhao Xing was not talking nonsense. When he proudly announced this sentence, the sailors on several ships had already shot arrows at the fish that emerged from the sea, and some small boats began to fish in the net, causing a fish song and a net-pull call to sound on the sea.

Zhao Xing showed a very arrogant attitude at this time. The reason he said made Deng Yufu frown, but as Zhao Xing's aide, he was not easy to persuade him. However, the people of the Central Plains did not understand this truth, but the two Jurchens could understand it. Because they were powerful politics and they understood this very well, they only looked at Zhao Xing with their eyes squinted for a while, and ignored the actions of the fishing boats.

They are waiting, and when Zhao Xing shows the equal strength of that declaration, they will immediately praise Zhao Xing's greatness and correctness...

After a while, the sailor on the mast shouted loudly: "A few Liao ships were found on the west side, and they were heading towards us."

After hearing this, the two Jurchens showed a "joking" expression. Zhao Xing also showed the ecstasy of "finally starting". He made a gesture and muttered: "The fast horse plan has begun."

Brother Wen didn't hear this sentence, and Deng Yufu didn't pay attention to it at all. He felt a mess in his heart, just thinking about making a difference when crossing the line this time. Zhao Xing roared angrily: "Boys, you've done serious business, all of them are alert."

With the shouts, a series of colorful flags rose to the top of the mast. Several fishing boats cut off the fishing nets, raised the sails, and began to adjust the direction of the boat. Some of the other useful boats were panicking and closed the nets, and some felt relieved when they saw Zhao Xing approaching and continued to fish leisurely.

The ship coming from the opposite side was getting bigger and bigger, and the naked eye could clearly see the boat's appearance. Zhao Xing looked very seriously. After a while, he leisurely put down his telescope and said, "Look, the people riding horses have grown up. They are not swimming in the bathtub, but they actually run into the sea."

The main warship that Zhao Xing led this time belonged to his private fleet, which was just named the use of the Mizhou regiment training. He was not worried about the lack of government orders when commanding such a fleet. Therefore, although Zhang Yong was nervous and Deng Yufu was compelled to calm down, Zhao Xing was very leisurely.

He turned his face and chatted with Jiawen brothers leisurely: "Brother Jiawen, I once saw a household registration booklet in Liao Kingdom, which said that there are 4,000 households in Jinzhou, right?"

The driver of the Jurchens later evolved into the Han army flag among the Eight Banners. When the Jurchens invaded the Central Plains, this group of Han slaves worked the most to massacre the Han people, thus becoming the "banner slaves" of the Jurchens. In the eyes of the Han people in the Central Plains, Zhao Xing asked them.

According to the Khitans' household registration at that time, there were about 4,000 Han slaves in Jinzhou, each household was calculated based on seven people, and there were about 28,000 people in total.

Wen Qingchen avoided Zhao Xing's question, and pointed to the boat and said, "General, this is a ship from the Liao Kingdom. Didn't you say you want to check taxes? I'm looking forward to you checking their ship."

Zhao Xing grinned: "Do you think this matter is difficult? Well, I will show you today and let these shepherds see how the sea battle is fought - no one is allowed to help, but I will see my official."

With Zhao Xing's order, his fleet split into two halves. Another giant boat with a size similar to his boat, took a medium-sized ship and a small boat heading to the left front, while the remaining shuttle-shaped boat heading to the right front of the incoming boat alone... In the eyes of brothers Jiawen, the fast boat heading alone towards the other side's tail was more arrogant than brave.

The ship coming from the opposite side had fully revealed its body, and there were seven ships in total. When they saw Zhao Xing's ship in this area, they all fell down their sails.

Seeing the movements on the ship opposite, Deng Yufu's body was shaking, but he asked strongly: "Sir, they are falling sails and preparing to fight. Why are our ships full of sails?"

Zhao Xing pointed to the opposite side: "They are hard sailboats with fixed goals; while I am soft sailboats with wind in the sails... Nothing is important. Today I will let you see a battle between two eras - no, it cannot be said to be a battle, a one-sided massacre."

The Liao ship opposite had already formed in a staggered formation. Relying on inertia and wind, the currents slowly rushed towards Zhao Xing. Zhao Xing's hull rushed towards the fleet alone, and he cut towards the center of the fleet. At this time, the captain had jumped off the podium, Zhao Xing took the helm himself, and the crew members were also quickly carrying three-bow bed crossbows to the deck.

Zhao Xing's fleet raised Zhang Yong's flag, but Zhang Yong was seasick again at this time. He was under the deck of several flower arms and entered the cabin to rest. Although Deng Yufu panicked, he saw that Zhao Xing's hull was obviously higher than the Liao ship coming from the opposite side, and the crew seemed orderly. He endured it and finally stood firmly beside Zhao Xing, holding a sword that was unsheathed in his hand. Although he was trembling all over, his feet stood firmly.

Brother Jia Wen did not go down either. They asked the crew for two waist knives, holding two shields in their hands, standing next to the rudder wheel, pretending to protect Zhao Xing while carefully observing Zhao Xing's actions.

The captain who walked off the podium paid attention to the coming ship. When the two ships approached the distance of the archery, the captain ordered: "Peak, prepare."

There was a roar on the deck, and continuous commands and responses came from the bilge. At this time, Zhao Xing tilted the steering wheel and the huge sailboat was filled with wind. The entire boat tilted over. On the cross-mast, several sailors quickly moved their bodies along the rope ladder left and right, adding reverse force distance to the mast to maintain the balance of the ship.

The ship slowly recovered its balance. At this time, the ship had maintained a level with the Liao ship opposite. The Liao ship opposite shouted: "Who is coming? Why don't you hang the flag and quickly get a name and name. We will avoid our family from accidentally hurting you."

The other party spoke Chinese, and the navy of the Liao Kingdom was all "head troops", that is, captured Han slaves. They slaughtered the Han people and spared no effort. Because they most needed to express their position through their cruelty towards their compatriots.

Zhao Xing came forward alone, which was a style of inspection, not a layout of battle. The warship opposite asked politely, but Zhao Xing's answer on the ship was unkind and righteous at all. The captain opened his voice and shouted: "Mizhou navy went to sea for inspection, whisper, can I take my Mizhou ship to the ship? Do you pay taxes according to the rules? Do you have a private cargo? The ship is coming and listen to the truth, and immediately drop your sails and stop your oars, waiting for us to check."

I guess at this time, the fleet opposite was about to vomit blood when he heard it, and his loud voice responded without hesitation: "Bold, this is my Liao Dynasty's boundary. It's not the turn of the Mizhou navy to check it. Are you bullying me and not knowing the ship? When will the Mizhou navy use the soft sails' "big food ship" as a warship? You obviously have a big food ship, how are you pretending to be a 'rice porridge naval army'? Boy, did you rob the Tongshang vassal ship and come to my Great Liao Dynasty? My Liao Dynasty's Nanjing Daoyingzhou navy is here..."

Zhao Xing was not patient enough. Before the other party could finish talking, Zhao Xing had already waved his hand. At this time, the ship had already cut into the limelight and was waving its head into the gap in the center of the Liao fleet. Zhao Xing's answer was only two words: "Fire the gun!"

While the ship opposite was puzzled, Zhao Xing's captain repeated the order. As his words came to the ground, the sound of shocking explosions sounded from the bow to the stern of Zhao Xing's ship. The three-bow crossbow on the deck also poured out all the gunpowder arrows on the bow string to the ship opposite.

Zhao Xing's ship was moving, and the other's ship was moving, so Zhao Xing's action of cutting into the other's ship's seam was not a vertical direction, but a diagonal cutting route. This diagonal cutting method could just turn one side of the ship towards the Liao fleet. When Zhao Xing's guns here sounded from the bow to the stern, the smoke from gunpowder had already enveloped the entire hull, and Zhao Xing's ship happened to pass through the center of the Liao fleet.

The captain stood on the boat and ordered loudly: "Change the position, prepare on the starboard side!"

The sailors on the deck were dragging the three-bow crossbow from the port to the starboard side, and there was also a sound of wheels rolling under the deck. After Zhao Xing pierced the Liao fleet, the gun team fired on the starboard side with the captain's order, and Zhao Xing's ship was inserted into the next crack of the Liao fleet.

What does it mean to shoot the left and right? Zhao Xing performed a full martial arts campaign with shoot the left and right. His ship was interspersed back and forth in the gaps between the Liao fleet, and every time he turned the firepower gathered on the side facing the Liao fleet. When he hit the center of the Liao fleet to the stern, the other side's ship had been completely cut off by him and drew a circle.

At this time, the fast boat that was rushing towards the tail of the Liao fleet also joined in the fun. He circled in circles in front of the bow ship of the Liao fleet, from port to starboard, completely silenced. When the shuttle-shaped fast boat finished his work, the rest of the armed ships of the Zhaoxing fleet came over with great momentum. The captain here shouted arrogantly: "Slose the sails, stop the oars, pay taxes, and be inspected."

The next battle was one-sided. Zhao Xing leaned on the ship, countless zippers hooked onto the other side of the ship, waiting to tie the incoming ship, many explosives were thrown onto the other side of the ship, and countless sailors climbed the rope and ran to the opposite ship like spiders. After a while, the three surviving warships were captured. The boarders waved the flag of victory here.

The battle was over, Zhao Xing walked off the helm wheel platform, Deng Yufu's face was filled with a relaxed smile, while the Jiawen brothers were pale. They held the pillar next to the helm wheel, as if they could not move their legs.

Zhang Yong's seasickness seemed to be cured with the news of victory. He stood majestic in armor on the cabin, enjoying the cheers of the sailors on the opposite boat, and waved to the opposite boat with great majesty.

Zhao Xing was very strange. The book said that the explosion was shocking and would scare many people to howl. Many soldiers even thought that the demons had arrived and were so scared that they pee their pants. How could Zhang Yong, Deng Yufu... and the arms of the flowers smelled the smoke of gunpowder. Not only did they not look panicked, but they were a little eager to try. Zhang Yong even ran to the crossbow of the three-bow bed and took off a gunpowder arrow that had not been fired for careful consideration.

"The noise just now was a little louder," Zhao Xing explained to Deng Yufu with a wry smile.

Deng Yufu smiled and immediately took over Zhao Xing's topic: "I didn't expect that the 'medicine puppet' would have such great power."

I understand, it turns out that the Song people were the ancestors who played with gunpowder. They light firecrackers during the New Year and listen to the movements. This kind of firecracker is called "Power-Fried Puppet". I am used to hearing the explosion of the firecrackers. They feel that when the sound of this kind of roar comes, the atmosphere of the New Year will be there, so...

Who would say that the Song people were scared by gunpowder and incontinence? I beat him and couldn't take care of himself.

After Zhang Yong looked at the gunpowder arrow, he was full of confusion: "Li Ren, why do I think this gunpowder arrow is different from the military standards... By the way, the Ministry of War, which I don't remember, has equipped us with gunpowder arrows and these three bows and crossbows. Where did you get these?"

Zhao Xing quickly jumped to Zhang Yong, covered his big mouth, and whispered: "Don't yell... Well, these are all my personal collections, and they are not worthy of being told by outsiders."

I don’t know if Zhao Xing’s hand was covered too tightly or if Zhang Yong was dissatisfied with Zhao Xing’s excuse, he rolled his eyes in Zhao Xing’s hand, and in the end he only had the only eyeliner left.

Deng Yufu still had a sense of politics, but he knew that it was difficult to make a big noise in front of several Jin people, so he grabbed Zhao Xing and found a place without anyone and asked quietly: "Li Ren, it's amazing. Why do you even collect such weapons and privately store weapons, which is a serious crime of extermination."

"Why is it that I have hidden it privately - you are wrong, these are all Mizhou utility navy. Remember, the ones using these weapons are Mizhou utility... Wait, when they are back, I have to quickly reconcile the accounts."

Reconciliation? Deng Yufu began to carry out the aide task in wonder. He took out paper and pen and looked depressedly at the sailors who rushed onto the enemy ship to report the results of the battle.

"Sir, two ships have been completely destroyed and cannot be used anymore; there are two ships, with a big hole on the side of the ship that cannot be repaired; three ships have captured them, one ship needs to re-mast the mast, and the other two are barely intact.

The total results are as follows: Our army captured three warships, two were intact, and one was damaged by 30%. A total of 123 enemy soldiers were captured, and the rest of the people who rushed to the sea were still salvaged, and it was estimated that six or seven people could be recovered.

The results of the inspection in the cabin are as follows: the food in the cabin is not worth mentioning, the weapons and armor are not worth mentioning, and the gold and silver obtained are not worth mentioning. The results are as above, and the report is completed."

Zhao Xing turned to the captain, and the captain replied: "This battle consumed a total of 250 gunpowder arrows, each worth 100 jin; a total of four rounds of gunpowder, each round of twelve guns, each worth 50 jin. More than jin, a total of gunpowder and combat equipment were consumed, worth 27,400 jin.

In addition, a total of 182 soldiers participated in the war, each of whom was rewarded with 100 guan during the war, totaling 18,200 guan.

Above: a total of 45,600 stalemates.”

Zhao Xing turned to the officer who reported the spoils, and he replied without blinking: "Sir, three intact warships can be sold for one thousand guan, and the remaining warships can be sold for six hundred guan. Each captive can be sold for one hundred guan, and the total income is less than 15,000 guan."

The words Zhao Xing continued to say made Zhang Yong, Deng Yufu and the two Jurchens fall together, but Zhao Xing blushed and touched his chin without beating, and said thoughtfully: "In other words, I lost 30,000 yuan in this battle."

Zhang Yong originally wanted to ask what the weapon that had the huge flames and thick smoke freed from Zhao Xing's cabin was, which was different from all the Song army weapons he remembered. However, when he saw Zhao Xing saying this, he was frightened and quickly persuaded: "Li Ren, it is already wrong for us to enter the waters of the Liao Kingdom. If we secretly provoke border attacks, we can't afford this serious crime."

At this time, the captured Liao army officer was escorting on the ship. After hearing this, he quickly agreed: "That's right, you can let me go quickly. We have something to discuss, otherwise..."

Zhao Xing interrupted the other party: "Let you go, how do you explain the disappearance of all the warships?"

As soon as Zhang Yong said this, he also understood and shouted loudly: "You can't let it go!"

The captured Liao army officer realized that he had said the wrong thing. He pale and argued with a strong face: "You take me back, how can you explain to your boss? Wait until our Liao country comes forward to ask for it, hum..."

Zhao Xing asked slowly: "Did you say you are the Yingzhou navy?"

"Of course, my Yingzhou navy has warships..."

"How many army are there?" Zhao Xing cut off the other party's words.

The officer replied quickly: "There are more than 30,000 horse and infantry troops."

"This bone is not easy to chew, although its meat is also very fat." Zhao Xing touched his chin, and he was mysterious.

Zhang Yong had already woken up, and he grabbed Zhao Xing's sleeve and stopped him repeatedly: "Li Ren, you are crazy, why are you... I want to go to Yingzhou to meet the King of the South Courtyard."

Brother Wen Meng suddenly interrupted: "I know the truth and reality of Yingzhou. It is the vertebral field that trades with my Jurchen tribe, and I often go in and out."

Zhao Xing shook Zhang Yi's hand dissatisfiedly: "Guan Jun, don't yell. I lost 30,000 yuan, someone will have to compensate me... Brother Meng, please continue, don't pay attention to him."

"I know that the King of the South Court is now in Xijin Prefecture, and he will not stay in Yingzhou. The sea breeze is strong, the land is barren, the water is bitter, and it cannot produce grain at all, so there are not many troops in Yingzhou. I also know that there are not many naval troops left in Yingzhou. These seven ships should be all the ships that can be moved in Yingzhou. The remaining ships are broken boats, so Lord Zhao will not take them seriously.

Yingzhou Wharf freezes in winter, and many ships are frozen every year. The Yingzhou navy lacks financial resources. Every year, just repairing the broken ships is no longer enough, so how can I get the money to buy new ships? Therefore, these seven warships should be all the warships of the Yingzhou navy.

The total number of Yingzhou cavalry and infantry troops he mentioned was also wrong. The Liao army mainly stocked heavy troops on the front line of Liubeishui River (the northern tributary of the Yellow River) and reserved troops in Jizhou. In addition, Yuguan in the north may have some troops, but the soldiers guarding the gate cannot be moved lightly. If there are police in the four counties, they will only want to ask for help nearby. However, in the past thirty years of the Tanyuan Alliance, the Liao army has long been old and weak on the front line, let alone Yingzhou. The Liao army has set up 42 military states, and there is no Yingzhou, so Yingzhou has only more than a thousand military and horses at most, and the cavalry is at most more than a hundred!”

Yingzhou is today's Changli, Hebei. Yuguan is today's Shanhaiguan.

Brother Wen Meng talked happily. It seemed that the Jurchens were very concerned about the movements of the Khitan, which reminded Zhao Xing of a record recorded in historical books: It is said that when the Jin people went south, Taoist institutions in various places were guides of the Jin people, and when the Mongolians went south, the Taoists repeated this work again. It was verified that Qiu Chuji of Changchun sect went to see Genghis Khan, and presented the map of the Southern Song Dynasty to the other party.
