Chapter 195

But there is a saying that the tree wants to be quiet, and the wind is not enough.

Kong Youde wants to be a shrinking turtle when they take advantage of it. Where is there such a cheap thing?

Zheng zining is planning a strike against Lushunkou opposite.

Liu Bu said: "it seems that this is not the time. Even if we can sweep the fleet stationed at Lushunkou, we can't take the opportunity to occupy Jinshan guard, because our army has not been trained and our strength is insufficient“

Zheng zining said, "why should we occupy Jinshan guard? We just need to control Lushunkou. If we destroy the fleet of Lushunkou, they will have no ability to cross the sea to attack us, and then they can get married safely. I'm most afraid that when we get married, it will be troublesome to build slaves to join in the fun."

Liu Bu said, "when friends come, there is good wine, when Zhou wolf comes, there is a gun?"

In the fourth year of Hongwu, the remnant yuan forces were still rampant in Eastern Liaoning. Zhu Yuanzhang appointed Ma Yun and Ye Wang as the commander of the capital of Liaoning. He led 100000 troops from Penglai (Dengzhou) in Shandong Province to cross the sea to land at SHIZIKOU. Because the voyage was smooth, Zhu changed SHIZIKOU to Lvshunkou.

After the Ming army landed, they built a North City with wooden fences in Lushun to temporarily garrison troops and store grain. Then, after reaching Jinzhou, they continued to go north and control the south of Liaoyang to the whole East of Liaoning.

Due to the destruction of the war in Liaodong, the economic foundation in the early Ming Dynasty was weak, and it was difficult to build a large-scale garrison. In order to solve the military supplies, a large number of military grain had to be imported by sea from Shandong and even Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Fujian. Later, the military grain in Liaodong was basically self-sufficient, so the large-scale maritime military grain activities stopped. However, cotton cloth, winter clothes, military pay and small amount of military grain were still landed at Lushunkou and transported to the garrisons everywhere.

Lvshunkou is jinzhouwei (later Dalian) Under the jurisdiction of emperor Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang, there were four guards in southern Liaoning and four guards in western Liaoning. The four guards in southern Liaoning were Jin, Fu, Hai and Gai. The first guard was in Jinzhou. The Ming dynasty built a brick city based on the Liaojin Earth City, which is the prototype of the current Jinzhou City. The brick city wall has a circumference of about 3km and a height of 10m. It is already a large city in the whole southern Liaoning.

At that time, jinzhouwei led 5600 people and governed six thousand households. In the ruling area of Dusi in Eastern Liaoning, jinzhouwei had the largest area of land reclamation, which promoted the development of agriculture and handicraft industry. By next year, jinzhouwei will have a total resident population of about 60000, with an average of 7800 people in each village.

After the rise of JianNu, the war flared up again, and Jinzhou Wei became one of the focus of competition between the two sides. JianNu had a great potential and swept through Liao Town, but after capturing the city, Jinzhou Wei was abandoned.

Because they had no navy, they would be attacked by the Ming army at any time, so they were not sure to guard it well, so they simply abandoned it.

However, after Kong Youde defected here, they brought some sailors, which is the possibility for them to guard this Jinzhou guard, because they have a navy, they can garrison the Jinzhou guard, use the navy to go south and directly attack Denglai area.

So JianNu they rebuilt the deserted jinzhouwei and stationed troops here, ready to loot the Denglai area at any time.

Just as they were just ready to go south, they saw the huge fleet of Zheng's family coming from the south, let them see the difference between the Navy and the Navy, and scared them into hiding in Lushun mouth.

Although they were frightened and shrank in Lushun's mouth, Zheng zining regarded them as a thorn in the eye, because this was the only navy of JianNu and the only force they could cross the sea to attack them.

In theory, it is impossible for JianNu to attack their Liu family. They must bypass the capital area, Hebei area, or bypass Shanxi to arrive here. They are all important towns of the Ming Dynasty. Even the capital is in one area. They can't hit Denglai area.

However, they directly garrison troops from Jinzhou Wei, start from Lushunkou, go south with the wind and water, and arrive in a day or two, so they can attack Denglai area.

In the past, the Ming army had a navy, but JianNu didn't. The Ming army always pressed JianNu to fight. It constantly transported food and troops to Eastern Liaoning through Denglai area, which made them a thorn in the eye, but there was nothing they could do.

They JianNu have the most powerful cavalry and heavy armored infantry, but their cavalry and infantry can't go to sea to fight? So they can only sigh.

And they were so oppressed that even if they could successfully attack Jinzhou Wei, they had no confidence to defend it and directly let it give up.

However, a Wuqiao mutiny has completely changed the pattern of both sides. After the Wuqiao mutiny, the military forces in Denglai area have been swept away, and the civilian forces have also been greatly hit, which has not been restored yet.

Even worse, they stationed a Navy here, but with the mutiny, the Navy also participated in the rebellion. Now they are either defeated or fled across the sea to take refuge in JianNu and become JianNu's navy.

JianNu has a navy. It's a flying thing.

After this huge blow, his Navy in Denglai area is equivalent to no more. There are only some small boats left. Even they are embarrassed to be called Navy. Although they urgently transferred some ships from all parts of the south of the Yangtze River, the other side of these ships is willing to transfer them. Think about it and you will know what it is. There are no crooked melons, cracked dates, rags and rags at all France has become an army, so now a new situation has formed in the Bohai Sea area, that is, the navy force to build slaves is the largest.

Therefore, they have always planned to loot the rich Shandong Peninsula through the Bohai Sea, and even invade Shandong, cut off the canal and encircle the back road of the capital of the Ming Dynasty. This is to become a fine trend.

These things stopped on paper and on the plan. JianNu beat the world by his heavy armored infantry and his cavalry. They were not sure about the things on the sea, and they didn't dare to listen to Kong Youde. They directly entered Dengzhou by boat from here. After capturing Dengzhou, they took Jiaodong Peninsula, cut off the canal of Daming, and let Daming collapse.

JianNu they are most worried about one thing, that is, when they go to sea with all their strength, what should they do in case of wind and waves at sea?

You should know that Kublai Khan of the Mongolian Empire sent 100000 troops to Japan. The storms encountered at sea ended in the destruction of the whole army. They did not build slaves on the scale of 100000 people.

Even if there is no wind and waves, the Bohai Bay is calm, but what if it is intercepted by the navy of the Ming army when sailing on the sea? They have the strongest cavalry and infantry, but these soldiers have no ability to fight back at sea. They will only send their heads for nothing. Therefore, they are not familiar with the place, and they dare not do anything.

For these reasons, even though Kong Youde, Shang Kexi and Geng Jingzhong repeatedly lobbied to attack the plan south, Huang Taiji, the leader of JianNu, was afraid to agree. He was afraid of stepping on the air and falling head and blood.

Although Huang Taiji, the leader of JianNu, did not dare to agree to Kong Youde's plan to attack them across the sea, there is nothing wrong. That is, a relatively powerful maritime force in the Bohai Sea area is their Lushunkou Navy. It can be said that they can go south to attack Denglai area or Tianjin Wei area at any time, which poses a great threat to them.

However, the current situation is that the hemp pole is afraid of beating the wolf at both ends. Daming has no navy defense for the time being. He is afraid that the other side will attack at any time. However, JianNu and they have no experience in commanding the Navy. They are afraid that they can't play and dare not fight, which forms a temporary power void. However, they know that sooner or later, one party will regain control of the situation here.

Liu Bu took advantage of the power vacuum on the sea and the power vacuum on the land to rise. At the same time, they took over the power here, even the one on the sea.

Although Zheng zining has always adhered to Liu Bu, like a silly woman in love, she has secretly transferred the fleet she commanded and stationed in Jiaozhou Bay.

Since this is Zheng zining's future home and her territory, she naturally has to protect herself from the threat of JianNu.

With the expansion of the Liu family's influence, Liu Yuanqiao took over Laizhou and became the governor of Laizhou. With their increasing control over Laizhou, which was basically their Liu family's territory, Zheng zining ordered her fleet to go north and took over Laizhou Bay. As a result, the military mutiny of Wuqiao ended. The sea power vacuum formed in Denglai area was filled again, The only thing that fills the power vacuum here is not the famous Navy in Dengzhou, but the navy fleet of the Liu family.

Of course, they are the Zheng family's private fleet, but after they entered here, they hung their name under the Liu family's name and became the Liu family's private fleet.

Zheng zining is the commander in charge of this fleet. Although she is tired of being around Liu Bu, in fact, she has always controlled these fleets through her men. She has everything under her control, whether the other party is stationed in Jiaozhou Bay or Laizhou Bay.

So when she finished the deployment, she began to plan a strike. She won the Lushun Port opposite. Even if she couldn't win the Lushun Port, she had to destroy the JianNu Navy.

Because he found that this was the only water force in the region that could threaten their power. If they were destroyed, they would be the strongest in the region.

Liu Bu has some concerns about this risky military action. He is worried that even if they can destroy each other's navy, they can't expand the war results and take the opportunity to occupy jinzhouwei.

But Zheng zining said disapprovingly, "it's just a small-scale battle. We have dozens of large ships to face each other's small sampans. It's basically an armed parade. What do you have to worry about? Only by killing them can we get married at ease. I don't want JianNu to come and join the fun when we get married."
