Tokyo Imperial City has learned about what happened in the distant East Island.
On the north side of Jinxiang Hall, the maple leaves on both sides have turned yellow, and the scattered fallen leaves on the brick floor rustled and slid by the wind, but the road looks cleaner.
The majestic and magnificent Jinxiang Hall complex stands in this quiet palace.Guo Shao walked off the car and suddenly sighed when he looked at it.
How many people have died in foreign lands for all this?Zhang Yin was just one of countless officials and had only met Guo Shao for several times, but when Guo Shao heard that he was killed on East Island, he felt extremely unhappy.
The reason why he was upset and things became even more difficult.
Guo Shao walked up the steps, put away his chaotic mood, and went straight to the Political Consultative Hall.The ministers have arrived first.
My emperor will live forever...
After a simple etiquette, Wang Pu quickly mentioned the matter on the East Island. Although the officials of our dynasty did not discuss with the Japanese lord, the two countries have always been harmonious. The officials who allowed our dynasty to build a fort were also formally appointed officials of the Japanese dynasty. Their dynasty had different attitudes from the court, and they had nothing to do with our dynasty's fault. They were internal affairs and could not be punished by the officials of our dynasty.
Therefore, this matter was caused by the violent acts of the Japanese monarch and ministers, and the court should be given an explanation...
As soon as he finished speaking, Shi Yanchao said: "So much, we are dizzy when we say so much."I think it’s not so complicated. If you can beat it, you can fight back. What’s wrong?
Everyone was stunned. Fortunately, they got used to Shi Yanchao's style, so they were not surprised.
At this time, Han Channel: General Shi, it is not a question of whether he can beat him or not, it is not reachable.The Mulan ship has not been built yet. The current light boat ships and requisitioned merchant ships are all small boats and have limited capacity. I heard that the East China Sea is getting more frequent in the season, and the relationship between the two countries has deteriorated sharply, making supply inconvenient.The Jiaolong Army is gradually feeling difficult to ensure the military supplies of hundreds of people and is currently unable to conquer Japan.
Wei Inpu said: What the Korean government said is extremely true.However, I think that I finally gained a foothold near Ishimi Yinshan and could not give up.This is related to the face of the country, and all previous efforts will also affect morale.
He clasped his fists and said to the upper hand: I think we should strive to negotiate with the Ping'anjing court while holding our foothold and waiting for the Eastern Expedition to be more appropriate.
Guo Shao immediately decided happily: Then he followed the report from Deputy Envoy Wei.
The power structure of the Daxu court was obviously very different from that of the Japanese Heian Kyo.
In the centralized system, the entire country's army is only loyal to the emperor and receives military salaries from the royal family; civil servants and the whole country take loyalty and filial piety as their basic moral theory.
The emperor had the highest decision-making power, and both legal etiquette and actual power were supreme.
……
At this time, the East China Sea was not as quiet as Tokyo, and the weather was very bad!
The three Jiaolong Army light boats successfully passed through the north bank of Danluo Island in the early stage and headed to Tsushima Island, but encountered huge storms.
call!Wow... The huge waves on the sea are surging.
Commander Wang, the fleet commander, felt that he had completely lost control of other ships and ships.
He and more than twenty other people could only hold on to the wood in the cabin, and could not do anything. If he let go, he would probably be hit and killed.
They could do nothing except lower all the sails before. In the face of God's wrath, everyone could only beg for good luck and could not control their own destiny.
The hull shook violently, with a very large amplitude. Fortunately, the ship was well built, otherwise it would have been apart!
Ah… Suddenly everyone shouted in fear.
Because it felt like the hull was flying!
A huge wave lifted the boat up, and in a moment, people felt lighter under their feet, as if they had jumped on a cliff, and the hull fell down with the waves!
boom!Wang Zhihui's heart trembled, and a huge fear surged in his heart. If the hull was broken at this time, everyone would have to be buried at the bottom of the sea. How could there be any way to repair it?
Then with a rustling sound, a stream of sea water knocked off the wooden board from the entrance of the deck and poured into the first cabin, pouring it on the front of Commander Wang.
After feeling suffocating, he hurriedly shook the water on his head, exhaled, opened his eyes and looked around, and white faces appeared in front of him.
I saw a soldier lying on the wet wooden board, his face full of blood.
Look at him and stop the bleeding!Commander Wang shouted.
Get order!
Commander Wang shouted again: Check everywhere for damage!
The storm continued, and everyone was worried, frightened and exhausted.I don’t know how long it took, and everyone didn’t know where they drifted, and the wind and waves gradually became smaller.
Commander Wang immediately took people to check the cabin again and boarded the deck.
Report, the cabin did not break!A general walked on the deck to report.Then more people climbed up.Everyone looked up and saw that the sun had emitted golden light from the dark clouds.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, but before they could cheer, people had found floating boards and sails used by Xu Jun on the sea.The other two boats were gone and everyone was silent.
General Wang, what should we do now?the general asked.
Commander Wang immediately ordered: Gufan, search for living nearby.Use the compass to defend the direction.
Get order!The general clasped his fists and said.
Commander Wang observed the sky for a while and ordered: Go to the bottom of the ship to check, bring the gunpowder up to dry.
The ship carries more than 20 people, mainly transporting a copper cannon, a comb, gunpowder, food, shells and other supplies, which are military supplies transported to Shijian Fort.
Commander Wang looked at it and saw a small island on the starboard side and a continuous land on the horizon.
Use a compass to identify the direction, and the land direction is east; the coastline that is so long within the line of sight is definitely not Tsushima Island.
Everyone took out the sea chart and thought for a while, guessing that the land east was the coast of Japan.
Commander Wang planned to search the sea for three days, approach the coast, find the locals to find out the location, and then find the direction along the coast to go to Ishimiku.
But after searching for two days, no one on the sea or the living person was found... I'm afraid the other two ships have been destroyed.The remaining twenty people were in a bad mood, but were also glad that they survived the disaster.
Commander Wang gradually settled down from the chaos, opened the booklet, and recorded the date and general direction of the wind and waves.
Early the next morning, he decided to give up searching and search for a way to the dock; however, several people believed that Ishimiko should go north along the coast.
At this moment, the door of the command cabin suddenly pounded twice. Commander Wang held the brush tip in his hand and said without replying: Turn the door up!
A ten general on duty opened the wooden door and clasped his fists and said: General Wang, a large number of ships were found on the sea, so you'd better go to the deck to take a look.
When Commander Wang heard this, he hurriedly threw the brush on the table, strode out of the cabin, holding the railing and looking out of the sky.
Sure enough, I saw a large area of sails floating on the sea, all of which were small boats, but there were so many, at least a dozen or twenty!
Japanese Navy?The official frowned and pondered.
Commander Wang suddenly felt alert when he thought of the murder of the Shijian Fort officials.He calmed down, turned his head and looked at the red tassel tied to the mast, and said: It's very unfavorable, the northwest wind.
The official nodded and said: It’s really unlucky!
The northwest wind was very unfavorable to Xu's army at this time because they wanted to leave the navy from the Japanese coast and could not sail to the shore, but could only go west... against the wind.
Commander Wang decisively ordered: Turn around and follow the coast to the south!
Bang bang!As soon as the gong sounded, everyone started to work hard.
The light boat turned the bow and immediately sailed at full speed. The water truck below gradually turned around, and the sailors stared at the water wheel in the cabin under the deck.
Unexpectedly, an hour later, the fleet was discovered again in front of the south.Xu Guoshi was surrounded by north and south, and they had no choice but to turn around again and head against the wind.
The Japanese ship chased after him until the afternoon.
The wind direction did not change much throughout the day. Everyone sailed against the wind, and the fleet behind them gradually approached the two arrows!
Commander Wang stood on the deck and watched for a long time. No matter how he ran, the distance was gradually shortening.He immediately shouted: Pass the order, prepare for war!
Although he was the commander, he now only had more than twenty people and one team of men under his command, and no one was in command.The situation is that there are many enemies and we are few, but the Japanese ship chased after most of the day, and the hostility is very obvious and there is nothing we can do.
The sound of gongs sounded again, and the sailors who were pedaling the waterwheel in the cabin gave up their work. The soldiers were busy putting on their armor and preparing weapons.
Commander Wang turned his head and looked at the fleet behind him for the last time, walked into the cabin, opened a cage fixed to the wooden board with a rope, and gurgled... He called out a dove and grabbed one from it.
Two were prepared in a row and released from the door.
Commander Wang looked up at the pigeons, hoping that they could fly across the sea and reach the Xuguo stronghold on Danluo Island... These pigeons were raised on Danluo Island, only three months old, and after the storm a few days ago.
Commander Wang watched for a moment, then entered the house again, asking his personal soldiers to help him put on his armor.Then he took the barrier knife and hung it around his waist. He picked up the bow and arrow in one hand and put his helmet on his head with the other, and strode out of the cabin.
On the deck, a group of soldiers were wearing strong and holding sharp edges, gradually forming formations. They found Commander Wang standing on top and looked up one after another.
The personal followers had already inserted a square dragon flag on the boat building and drifted in the wind.
Commander Wang said: We soldiers are unwilling to accept the humiliation of being imprisoned, so we can only fight!
While listening to him, everyone looked at dozens of ships floating in the east.
Commander Wang exhaled: I will let the carrier pigeon go back, and the official will know that we are fighting for the country in the East China Sea!God’s great waves cannot destroy us, we will definitely defeat the enemy!
Drink... The troops gathered their morale and shouted loudly.
Commander Wang shouted: Daxun, the imperial guards fought with one soldier to repay the emperor's kindness!
kill!Kill... More than twenty people shouted, and their momentum was quite powerful!
On the north side of Jinxiang Hall, the maple leaves on both sides have turned yellow, and the scattered fallen leaves on the brick floor rustled and slid by the wind, but the road looks cleaner.
The majestic and magnificent Jinxiang Hall complex stands in this quiet palace.Guo Shao walked off the car and suddenly sighed when he looked at it.
