Chapter 1124: The Huge Ship


The great victory in the northern steppes had little to do with Gan Ning, who was sailing on the sea.

Under Gan Ning's order, the fleet was ready to find a place to dock, replenish some drinking water, and exchange some food with Lin Yi by the way.

Rely on the mountains to eat the mountains, rely on the water to eat the water On a huge beach in Linyi, two gangs of people are fighting each other to occupy a large enough territory and water.

Only when there is land can they have the right to go out to sea to fish, and exchanging fish for various living necessities is the daily life of these two groups.

In order to compete for the fishing grounds, the two gangs have been fighting for a long time On the flagship, Gan Ning saw the situation on the beach through the telescope, and he didn't understand why these people were making a big fuss on the beach No matter what the situation is ahead, Gan Ning is not afraid, he is here to find fresh water, who does not open his eyes, he will not be polite.

The dragon battleship approached, and the two gangs fighting on the beach also spotted it The huge ship approached, and the men and horses of both sides of the battle stopped, and knelt respectfully on the beach In their minds, the only one who can ride such a huge ship is the god of the sea "Everything" Gan Ning was very puzzled, how could those people who fought well suddenly bow down to them. couldn't figure it out, Gan Ning didn't want to think about it, and ordered the battleship to continue to move forward, and then the small boat, the marines landed first to investigate the situation Seeing the rows of brightly dressed troops disembarking on huge ships, the ragged Linyi people on the beach became more religious.

In their opinion, it was their actions that angered the god of the sea, and the god sent an army ashore to punish them "General Qiyu, these people speak, the soldiers can't understand it, and they can't ask useful information."

Gan Ning came to the land, and a soldier came to report.

"Go find it yourself, if anyone can speak the language of the Central Plains, let him come to me," Gan Ning commanded.

After resting for a while, the soldiers of the Marine Corps really found an old man who could speak the original dialect.

According to the old man himself, he was a person from Eastern Wu, and when Shu attacked Eastern Wu, they fled with their family all the way, and finally fled here.

Gan Ning explained his intention to the old man and asked the old man to help him find fresh water.

When the old man learned that Dongwu had been destroyed and that the Central Plains had now returned to unification, his eyes were filled with tears.

When the war is over, it's time for them to go back, after all, the fallen leaves have to return to their roots With the help of the old man and his clansmen, the Jiaolong fleet quickly replenished the drinking water, and casually exchanged a lot of fish and fish with the natives of Linyi.

It is worth mentioning that the old man and his people have risen in prestige because they can communicate with the sea god's army.

The people of both forces expressed their willingness to befriend them The servants of the sea god are very polite to them, where do they dare to be arrogant From the old man's mouth, I learned that the country of Linyi was not strong, and the overall strength was not as good as a county in Dongwu before.

No matter from which point of view, it is impossible to hijack the merchant ships of Shu, and you must know that the merchant ships of Shu also have a certain protective ability.

Not all cats and dogs can be bullied.

Moreover, Linyi is relatively close to the coast of Shu, and generally there will be no ships from Shu to dock here In fact, if it weren't for Gan Ning to carry out Wu Hao's order, he would not have landed in Linyi To the west of Linyi was a relatively powerful country called Funan, and if merchant ships were hijacked, it was probably there.

With the goal in mind, Gan Ning immediately ordered the fleet to set off Watching the giant ship go away, the people of Linyi knelt down and said goodbye again, and the excitement and piety in their eyes could not be faked.

"Funan, your country is relatively large on the map, if they hijack the merchant ships of Shu, you will need to come forward."

In the war room of the cabin, Gan Ning pointed to the Funan country on the chart and said to the envoy.

He hoped that this envoy would be tougher in the face of the Funan people and not embarrass His Majesty "Metropolitan Governor, don't worry, if Lin Xuan dislikes you, he will voluntarily present his head" The messenger's name was Lin Xuan, and he was a student of the Central Academy who was recommended to serve in the Ministry of Rites after completing his studies.

"Lin Xuan, right, you are a scholar, you know more than the governor of Pontus, you can be appointed as an envoy, you must be good-mouthed, you will go back to the governor of Pontus and personally ask for credit for you."

Gan Ning slapped his big hand and almost slapped Lin Xuan on the board "Scholars are just a little weaker" Gan Ning was not ashamed of his rude movements at all, but blamed Lin Xuan for not exercising.

Although there are not many things to do in the Ministry of Rites, there are no big things, and there are still a lot of small things.

To end the war in this world, Shu needs to reformulate many etiquettes.

During the chaos of the princes, the collapse of etiquette was not just talk.

Funanguo, in the western part of Linyi, is a country on the peninsula of present-day Southeast Asia.

The development is also okay, because it is close to the ocean, the shipping is relatively developed, and it has relatively close ties with Kushan, Persia and other countries.

Of course, the rise of Shu and Funan also know, especially the silk, tea, porcelain and other exquisite items from Shu that make Funan people greedy They wanted to do so by cutting off Shu's trade routes on the sea, which would be of great benefit to Funan The items of Shu, in the body poison, Guishan, Persia and even further away, some Guo Jia are very popular, and some novelty items in these countries are also very popular than Shu.

If Funan can be a transit point for goods from the East and the West, the benefits are unimaginable The Shu State is very strong, and the Funan people also know that the Anxi Empire was subdued by the Shu State, and they have also heard about it.

However, the self-confidence of the Funan people is that they think that they are at sea, and Shu is not their opponent After all, a country's land power is so strong, and the energy and money spent on sea power are limited.

Sea power is not like land power, as long as weapons and armor are sufficient Navy, he wants powerful warships as the foundation, Funan has always attached importance to the development of maritime power, and learned from the mouth of the Kushan merchants that the Shu State set up a capital in the Western Regions, and the military focus is on the west.

That's why they had the temptation to hijack the merchant ships of Shu “““””” ““““”””” “““””” Navy, he wants powerful warships as the foundation, Funan has always attached importance to the development of maritime power, and learned from the mouth of the Kushan merchants that the Shu State set up a capital in the Western Regions, and the military focus is on the west.
