Chapter 1793

A few days later, at the mouth of the famous Qinglong River in the state of Qi, large ships flying the flag of the state of Qi docked at the wharf of Qinglong port. There were battleships with a displacement of two or three thousand tons and hundreds of guns, as well as various transport fleets.

The vast fleet of naval ships floating on the sea like a forest of ships at the wharf, and a large number of elite gathered down.

Such a battle, as long as it is not a fool, we all know that the state of Qi will make great moves.

Among the crowds of people watching from afar, there are rich CHILDES dressed in luxury, dock workers dressed in simple clothes, and many scholars with long shirts and long swords.

Everyone is confused.

"This is the North Sea fleet? It seems that the North Sea fleet is outside. What are you doing gathering at Qinglong wharf this time?"

"Is it to attack pirates?"

"Fart bandits, where are there pirates in the waters around Daqi? No matter how stupid pirates are, they won't operate in Daqi."

"Definitely not killing pirates. Don't you know that an army is coming to Qinglong city?"

…………

For the vast Penglai Island, the Qinglong river across the whole island from south to north is a mother river, which breeds a large number of plains for human habitation and survival.

And Qinglong City, the entrance to the sea in the north? It is also the largest city in the whole kingdom, except Linzi, the king capital. It is the most important transit place in the vast ocean.

Almost 90% of the fleet of ships from big merchants to Datang are recuperating and transiting in Qinglong port.

On weekdays, the defense capability of Qinglong port is not poor. Fort after fort is definitely not a decoration. There will also be an official fleet of the state of Qi stationed, but it is often only the water division of Qinglong River, far from the huge ocean fleet of the North Sea fleet,

Suddenly, there are so many ships here, as well as many transport ships

In addition, who mentioned that the army was coming to Qinglong city?

Suddenly, his mind turned quickly, and he was shocked and said, "does the state of Qi want to use troops against foreign countries? Hiss..."

To fight pirates, there is absolutely no need for such exaggerated battles, let alone the cooperation of the army. Only when it is said that it is the use of troops against foreign countries, such a large force is needed.

To whom? The nearest ocean country is Ren, Wei and Zhou. They often mix with the ocean. Who doesn't know that Ren, Wei and Zhou are unworthy of carrying shoes because of their military strength?

The state of Qi has never launched a war with foreign countries, but it is still afraid of the two empires of Shang and Tang.

Among the crowd, there were people who were born in the Three Kingdoms of Wei and Zhou and stayed in Qinglong city to recuperate on the way of navigation and trade.

A rich merchant turned green. "Damn it, does Qi really want to use troops abroad? It shouldn't be China's state of Zhou. It shouldn't be. We state of Zhou is a vassal state of big merchants. Qi dare not eat and support."

Although the life of the people in the state of Zhou is very hard and difficult, even the profits earned by the powerful gentry in the state of Zhou will be divided by the big people in the two neighboring provinces, as long as you have a backer and find the right way, the family life can be very moist.

Once there is a war, it will be different.

The merchant was convinced that if Qi used troops against Zhou, he could easily swallow the state of Zhou without wasting any effort, and those people would usher in a happy prosperous era, but they, local tyrants and evil gentry, could not continue to ride on those people.

He is not blind. He knows and sees the people who take the initiative to flee from the state of Zhou every year.

On Zhou laiqi's sea route, various supply islands set up many checkpoints to prevent people from fleeing. It also has the power of the family behind him.

But those checkpoints can stop the people, against the army of the state of Qi? Don't be funny. I'm afraid the Qi fleet will arrive in a few days, and the servants and soldiers on the checkpoint islands will either disperse in a crowd or surrender on their own initiative.

Seriously, how reliable are the servants of their families to count on the Zhou Navy? Which of those navies is not exploited and bullied by layers of generals

With the scream of a marine merchant, a marine merchant who was born in the state of Wei exclaimed, "fart Zhou, if you want to attack Zhou, you don't gather in Qinglong city. Starting here, it's closest to the state of Wei. Damn, damn... How dare they, how dare they? Aren't they afraid of the power of the Tang Dynasty?"

There is no doubt that Qinglong port is in the northernmost part of Penglai Island. From here, you can go to Weiguo and Datang.

If the troops are transferred to Ren and Zhou, they will gather in the east or south of Penglai Island, although in the East. In the south, there is no such prosperous and huge city harbor as Qinglong city and Qinglong port, but the second grade always exists.

With the scream of Weiguo merchants, Zhou Guohai merchants suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and completely relaxed. Isn't it? If we deal with Zhou, how can we gather here? Relieved, the merchant burst out laughing, "ha ha, afraid of Tang Tianwei? Don't be funny, your suzerain country is almost broken now... Where is our suzerain country strong?"

Datang's own back garden is full of chaos and tossing. Even the state of Yue, which is far inferior to the state of Qi, can invade year after year. In this way, we can't do it with the power of Datang.

If Datang is so weak and badly played, where is the Imperial Majesty.

Business is business. Although he is also a capitalist and a member of businessmen, he is jealous of the expansion and rise of the capital power of the Tang Dynasty and how huge various privileges he enjoys.

But at this moment, he was just deeply glad that the big business behind their Zhou state did not collapse and was still a very powerful empire and Navy... The navy of the big business could definitely pull out one, which was not much weaker than the fleet of Daqi.

After all, big business is a big empire with tens of millions of people.

No matter how bad or weak the state of Zhou is, regardless of the monk's face and the Buddha's face, if Qi wants to start against Zhou, he must take into account the face of big businessmen. On the contrary, the private fleet of groups of capital tycoons will not be weak. At least it will be much stronger than Ren Wei's navy, and may even be stronger than the navy of Datang.

Because the Datang army system is about to be ruined by all kinds of big hands.

But it's really hard to say whether all of them can carry the Qi army.

There is hope to mobilize the strength of the whole country, but can it be mobilized? The most positive will only be Jingzhou's great power, which has the interests of defending the country.

After these words, some maritime businessmen in Renguo nearby are also relaxed. It's not just to deal with them

On the contrary, all kinds of lower class people gathered here, such as the dock workers of the state of Qi, such as the Weiguo people who are only the lower class sailors in various caravans, are excited one by one, like taking medicine.

"I, Daqi, are going to attack the state of Wei? Great, ha ha ~"

"Is Qi finally going to attack us to defend the country? Great, God bless everything!"

…………

Qi dock workers will be delighted by the war. In addition to their pride as Qi people, they also have vital interests. After all, how many materials will run back and forth when the national war is started? They can earn more.

The patriotic sailors shouted wildly? When Daqi attacked the state of Wei, it was simply to liberate their parents and relatives.

If there were not all kinds of threats and intimidation, all the bottom sailors would want to fully integrate into this prosperous kingdom almost the moment they set foot on the land of Qi.

In the final analysis, everyone knows that both Shang and Tang Dynasties and all kingdoms are one ancestor and one ethnic group. It doesn't feel like being invaded at all.
