231 The rise of a strong country


The spring breeze swept across the sea, blowing sparklingly.

The sky was as blue as the sea.

Raising your eyes and looking into the distance, the sea water is the same color as the sky, and you can't tell where the sky is and where the sea is The fleet went down the river from Jinling, and it took only one day and one night to get out of the Yangtze River and enter the vast sea.

Led by the huge Zheng He's treasure ship, more than 70 warships of various sizes turned their bows and sailed north.

Although the blue sea stretches as far as the eye can see, such a large fleet of ships walking on the surface of the sea is also spectacular, attracting many seagulls to follow the flotilla from time to time to chirp and hover over the fleet.

Counting his fingers, he has been driving on the sea for ten days, and it is estimated that he will be able to reach the shore of Jiaozhou in one or two days.

He didn't know what the situation was in Beihai, so Liu Wei kept urging the boatmen to speed up the ship and strive to land as soon as possible to relieve the siege of Beihai.

In this age of technological backwardness, sailing at sea is not an easy task.

The direction is mainly determined by observing the sun and the North Star, and the route is very vague.

If you don't have an experienced commander in your fleet, it's easy to get lost at sea.

But Zheng Chenggong's existence made Liu Wei full of confidence, whether it was because he was born with a talent for sea navigation, or because the system implanted memories in his mind; Anyway, Zheng Chenggong's familiarity with the sea made more than 10,000 soldiers and more than 2,000 boatmen in the whole army all admire the five-body land.

The fleet traveled all the way from Jinling and sailed more than 2,000 miles on the sea, and Zheng Chenggong's accurate judgment of natural phenomena such as ocean currents, reefs, wind, and tides was praised by everyone.

The journey was smooth, and even trivial accidents never happened, which made Liu Wei firmly believe that taking Zheng Chenggong north was really a wise decision.

It's the end of March, and the spring breeze blowing in the face brings warmth to the heart, making people feel refreshed.

Liu Wei was dressed in a military uniform, wearing a golden cloak embroidered with the pattern of a flying dragon in the sky, standing on the bow of the treasure ship.

Letting the sea breeze blow by, he was surrounded by Zheng Chenggong, Zhao Kuangyin, Lu Wenlong, Wenyang, Weijiang and other civil and military elites, like the stars and the moon, full of spirit and ambition.

The fleet had gone some way forward, and suddenly an island came into view.

What started out as a small blurry black dot grew in size as the fleet sailed its way through the waves, slowly turning into a behemoth on the sea.

"Haha, that's right, this is Tian Heng Island, which is the place where Tian Heng, the puppet king of Qi, took refuge at sea, after crossing this island, and then walking more than a hundred miles by sea, you can arrive at the shore of Jiaodong safe and sound."

Zheng Chenggong stood beside Liu Wei, looking at Tian Hengdao who was getting closer and closer, and couldn't help but smile on his face.

I am satisfied with my performance with the Son of Heaven this time, and I believe that the Son of Heaven will definitely pay more attention to himself from now on.

Today, there are no residents on Tayoko Island, but there are still traces of abandoned buildings.

The vegetation on the island is dense and green, and the reef is towering, like a ghostly axe, and the momentum is extraordinary.

There is only one place on the entire island that can accommodate a ship to dock, and as long as troops are sent to defend it, it is definitely an easy to defend and difficult to attack sea hazards.

Looking at Cui Wei's precipitous Tianheng Island, Liu Wei suddenly became poetic.

Back then, when Cao Apu went to Liaodong and passed by the sea, he wrote a masterpiece that will be famous through the ages.

And now, he has been adrift on the vast sea for more than ten days, and what he has seen and heard is much more spectacular than Mengde "This kind of scenery is simply born for Ah Gui's view of the sea, and if you don't steal at this time, you will wait for when" Liu Wei groaned a little in his heart, and then made up his mind to steal poetry.

If you want to become the emperor of the ages, "get on the horse and write poems", it is far from enough to rely on a Yan song of Cao Pi, and you must continue to move the poems and songs in history to this era in a steady stream, so that you can carry it forward, so as to live up to your identity as a traverser "Ladies and gentlemen, this scenery is so spectacular, I can't help but be very excited, and I decided to write a poem, you are interested in listening to it."

Liu Wei put his hands behind his back, let the sea breeze blow the golden cloak and hunt, and asked heroically.

"Your Majesty's Wen Tao Wuluo, an unprecedented Yan song recited from the north and south of the river, making people high-five, to be able to hear Your Majesty make poems, it is our honor, Weichen and others are willing to listen to it" Zhao Kuangyin took the lead in patting the sycophants, and the other generals and colonels were not lacking in hearts, so it was strange who dared to say a word and not be thrown into the sea to feed the fish Dozens of civil and military entourages followed Zhao Kuangyin to echo: "The ministers are listening, and I would like to hear Your Majesty's divine work."

I think that Cao Zijian became a poem in seven steps, and became synonymous with talent, as famous as Pan An, and will be famous for future generations.

Liu Wei knew that he couldn't do this kind of thing, but he could do it in seven steps.

At that moment, he put his hands behind his back, pretended to walk six or seven steps back and forth on the bow of the boat, and then began to recite aloud.

"The east is adjacent to Tianheng to view the sea.

The water is surging, and the mountains and islands are sturging.

The trees are overgrown and the grass is abundant.

The spring breeze is sluggish, and the waves are surging.

The trip of the sun and the moon, if out of it.

The stars are splendid, if out of it.

Fortunately, even ya, the song is a song. ” "Your Majesty's Wen Tao Wu Strategy, such a masterpiece is unprecedented, and the momentum is like a rainbow, although the Qin Emperor and the Han Dynasty are not as good as it."

This poem is written magnificently, not to mention that it came from the mouth of the emperor.

The civil and military ministers standing behind Liu Wei suddenly didn't know what to do, and they all bowed down and applauded.

Under the chorus of civil and military officials, Liu Wei was even more excited, and decided to take advantage of the victory to pursue and write another poem.

Chinese culture has a long history, and there are thousands of poems and songs describing the sea, and it is rare to encounter such a spectacular scenery on the sea today Liu Wei waved his hand and signaled the civil and military entourage behind him to be calm and restless: "When I saw this Tianheng Island, I thought of the scene of following the first emperor to Mount Tai in the past, Mount Tai is majestic, the sea is vast, and the scenery between heaven and earth is so spectacular, I decided to write another poem."

Since Qin Shi Huang opened the prelude to the enshrinement of Mount Tai, the emperors of the Han Dynasty have also imitated many times, and Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty has been there several times.

At this moment, Liu Wei is talking nonsense, and others can't distinguish between truth and falsehood, so they can only listen to it "There is no Qilu to bow down, and the sea is like a cup; On the peak, I don't believe that the mountains are open.

The sun hugs Fusang and leaps, and the sky crosses the stones; After you look at the beginning of Qin, there is still the Han Emperor Terrace. ” Liu Wei walked a few steps back and forth on the huge deck of the treasure ship, and once again wrote an impassioned poem.

From the generals to the soldiers, all of them applauded and praised each other.

In this era, being able to read a few words is a cultural person in the eyes of others, let alone writing such majestic poems.

Many generals didn't know what the poem recited by the Son of Heaven described, but they just saw that everyone else around them was high-fived and applauded, and they all followed suit.

The flotilla continued on its way, leaving Tayokoshima behind in a short time.

When Zheng Chenggong looked east, he accidentally found a small boat floating on the sea, which was initially heading west, and suddenly turned around and accelerated eastward to escape.

"This civilian ship is so strange, isn't it Yuan Jun's spies, send the ship to arrest it and ask for an understanding," Zheng Chenggong pressed his sword and suggested to the Son of Heaven.

Along the way, the mighty fleet also encountered many civilian ships.

But they knew that this was an army boat, and they should not embarrass ordinary fishermen, so they continued to move forward without hurrying.

It was the first time that he had encountered the situation of turning around and escaping, so Zheng Chenggong couldn't help but be careless "Well, I also saw this boat, and its whereabouts are indeed suspicious, so Zheng Qing personally led someone to chase the boat back."

Liu Wei looked in the direction pointed by Zheng Chenggong, and sure enough, he found this suspicious ship.

Immediately ordered Zheng Chenggong to personally lead the team to arrest him.

After receiving an order from the Son of Heaven, Zheng Chenggong jumped off the treasure ship and quickly chased west with three ships.

After half a day's effort, the suspicious fishing boat was escorted and caught up with the main force of the fleet from behind.

When the ship approached the treasure ship, Zheng Chenggong jumped ashore and ordered loudly: "Escort all the men, women, and children on this ship to the treasure ship, and let Your Majesty personally interrogate them."

The ship and the treasure ship sailed side by side at the same time, and it didn't take much effort for all the people on the fishing boat to be driven to the big ship.

I saw that these people were dressed strangely, and they were very different from Middle-earth.

About forty people, men and women, old and young, spoke the strange language of "babbling".

One by one, their faces were full of horror, and they gestured vigorously with their hands, trying to explain something, but they couldn't communicate with each other, and they talked for a long time, but it was in vain.

A few hundred nautical miles to the east is the Korean Peninsula, and Liu Wei suddenly realized that these people were probably sticks from Goguryeo, so he sent an order: "Spread my order, ask if there is a soldier in the fleet who knows a little Goguryeo and order him to come to the ship to translate a few sentences for me, and there will be a heavy reward."

After some tossing, a man who knew a little Goguryeo language was found from among the 2,000 boatmen.

First, he boarded the treasure ship to pay homage to the Son of Heaven, then went to communicate with the captives for a while, and then returned to report to the emperor.

"Your Majesty, these people claim to be from the Silla Kingdom in the east, and they took refuge in the west to escape the war, and they are not scouts.

According to their own claims, the monarch of Longcheng died of illness last year, and the crown prince Li Yuan ascended the throne.

At the beginning of spring this year, Li Yuan sent his eldest son Li Shimin, his second son Li Yuanba, and his minister Li Ji to lead tens of thousands of soldiers of Longcheng State to attack south, and along the way, they were like bamboos, and they had already occupied half of Silla. ” "Li Shimin, Li Yuanba, Li Ji," Liu Wei suddenly felt a little smec, "Tut, the father and son of the Li family are not willing to be lonely, is this going to compete with me to see who is faster to unify?"
