Finest Servant

Lin Wanrong was overjoyed and hurried up to the watchtower.

At the end of the sea and sky, a small black spot loomed faintly. Although it was vague and far away, the outline of the land could already be distinguished. Judging from the direction and distance, it should be Goryeo without a doubt.

He was in a good mood, and jumped down from the watchtower holding the eldest lady's jade hand. He said excitedly, "Brother Shi, the Gwangju Mansion of Korea is ahead. Tell the brothers to work harder, we will land tonight!"

When the news came out, the sailors were shocked, they adjusted their sails, and paddled their oars fast.

Gradually, the land became clearer and clearer, with mountains, rivers, forests and trees slowly coming into view. Dozens of simple loggers are busy fishing on the sea.

"It's finally here!" The eldest lady laughed and clapped her hands. Before they finished speaking, they heard a loud bang from the sea in the distance. A few hundred feet away in front of them, a column of water rose into the sky, leaping half a foot high.

Shi Changsheng has rich experience in naval battles, his face changed immediately when he heard the sound, he stood in front of Lin Wanrong, waved the small flag in his hand, and shouted: "Every battalion is ready, listen to my orders, and prepare to fire—"

These naval officers and soldiers were personally selected by Xu Zhiqing. They are equipped with the best fast boats and artillery from Dahua. The artillery was aimed at the Koryo waters ahead.

Lin Wanrong's face was as black as ink, and the joy of approaching landing had already been swept away.

The Koreans dared to fire at the Dahua Navy! The two armies were far apart, and the cannon shot was more of a test, but it was also a naked provocation.

"Brother Shi, load it!" He shouted coldly.

"Load!" Shi Changsheng ordered the flag to wave swiftly, and thousands of soldiers moved neatly and swiftly. In the blink of an eye, the iron bombs and gunpowder were loaded, and the torch was blazing in his hand, waiting for the commander's order. It is necessary to fire all the guns.

The rushing waves collided with the ship's side, and the crystal water drops shot out like a goddess scattering flowers. The sea level was deadly silent, and no one dared to speak.

No one thought that the trip to Goryeo, which was supposed to be relaxing and enjoyable, would start with the roar of thousands of guns. Xiao Yuruo leaned close to him, tightly grasping his hand, and refused to let go for a moment.

"Wait, please wait—"

In the midst of the confrontation, a sea boat suddenly approached from far away on the sea. The bow of the ship is in the shape of a turtle, and bursts of yellow smoke are blown out from the mouth of the turtle. It seems to be diffused over the sea like fog.

This turtle captain is about ten feet long,

The width is three feet square, and the wooden sides are covered with iron armor, which is much smaller than the warships of the Shandong Navy. There are ten sculls on the left and right sides of the ship, the sails are hung high, and the iron armor is full of dense knife nets and conical iron picks.

Standing on the bow was a Korean general in his forties. With a long face and extremely thick eyebrows, he is shouting with his hands around his mouth, and his Chinese is very blunt.

"It's the Turtle Ship of the Koreans!" Shi Changsheng has a lot of knowledge, and hurriedly whispered in Lin Wanrong's ear: "This is an invention of the Koreans. They put iron armor on the wooden warships. It has certain resistance and It is light and fast. The knife net and awl drill hung on the iron armor can break through the enemy's wooden boat. It is extremely sharp. The yellow smoke from the tortoise's mouth is also poisonous, which can make people dizzy and even comatose. In this anti-Japanese war, this The first time the turtle boat was put into use, it achieved brilliant results.”

What a turtle boat! Looking at the thick yellow smoke from the bow of the ship. Lin Wanrong sneered: "Brother Shi, connect the water dragon!"

During the conversation. The turtle boat is getting closer. The distance from the Missing was only five or six zhang, and the Korean general on the bow said proudly: "Are you the Dahua Navy?"

The warships of the Shandong Navy are covered with golden Dilong flags. That is the most distinctive symbol of status. This Korean man opened his eyes and asked the truth, which is extremely rude.

Shi Changsheng jumped up and was about to answer, but Lin Wanrong stopped him with a wave. He smiled slightly, and said unhurriedly: "It's the Dahua Navy! This general, what's your name?"

"I am Li Shunchen, the envoy of the Jeolla Left-do Navy of the Koryo Kingdom," the Koryo general shouted loudly, "You are the Dahua navy division, but you trespassed on our Koryo border, what is your intention?"

"Great Hua Haijun trespassed on the border of Korea?" Lin Wanrong repeated in a gloomy voice, and suddenly laughed loudly: "What a trespasser! General Li Shunchen, do you dare to be responsible for every word you have said?"

"This—" Li Shunchen's face changed gradually, as if he had thought of something, he hurriedly changed his words: "Dahua and Gaoli are originally one, but you broke into my sea without saying a word—"

"What does it mean to keep silent?" Lin Wanrong's cheeks turned cold suddenly: "According to the agreement signed by the King of Koryo and Dahua, the two places will become one, and the Koryo garrison will be taken over by our loyal and brave army. To whom? According to the law, Koryo should only retain the Bureau of Capture and Pirates, the Imprisonment Office and other departments to maintain public order and control the criminal law, and all other soldiers and soldiers should be withdrawn. , Show off your power, block our Dahua Navy from entering, and take the lead in firing at our army! General Li, you are very brave!"

His tone was gloomy, he sneered again and again, and Li Shunchen was overwhelmed by the series of questions. General Goryeo blushed and said loudly, "This is an unequal treaty. Why should Dahua take care of the affairs of our Goryeo people? It's too much!"

"What an inequality!" He looked up to the sky and laughed, his voice pierced through gold and gravel, across the boundless sea, buzzing in Li Shunchen's ears.

"What are you laughing at?" Li Shunchen asked.

Lin Wanrong's voice trembled coldly: "Finally, you, General Li, still know the word fairness. You are very good. If you want to ask me for fairness, then please give me fairness first!!"

"What's fair to you?" the Korean asked puzzled.

"What's fair?!" Lin Wanrong slapped the table angrily: "At the critical moment when our border is in emergency and the country is in danger, the people of Dahua put their own safety at risk. Tens of thousands of lives are buried here. They are not related to you, but the blood and bones are still there. Have you ever given them justice? When you were frightened and afraid of subjugation and asked me, Dahuadi, for help, Why don't you come and talk to me about fairness? Now that things have changed, you are enjoying the fruits of victory won by the soldiers of the loyal army with their blood and lives, while shouting that I want fairness-it's become a habit to get something for nothing, and you really treat me as a Dahua Volunteer site?! Fair? Are you qualified to mention these two words to me?!"

He scolded his head and covered his face, and General Li's face turned red and white. Cheeks trembled, but I didn't know how to tell.

Master Lin became more and more angry as he spoke, looking at the turtle boat that was constantly emitting smoke. He waved his hand angrily: "What are you spraying?"

what? Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles? Brother Shi, water dragon! "

When Shi Changsheng listened to him lecture the Koreans, forget about the comfort in his heart, he laughed loudly when he heard the sound, and went into battle with the water dragon himself, aiming at the turtle boat and sweeping it fiercely.

The thick yellow smoke from the tortoise's mouth may seem scary, but it is actually burning sulfur and flame nitrate, which dissolve when it meets water. The turtle boat suddenly died down, losing all anger.

However, Shi Changsheng was unreasonable, holding down the water dragon and sweeping indiscriminately, the Koreans on the boat couldn't dodge, and were drenched by him immediately.

"What are you doing—" Li Shunchen stomped his feet and jumped away, angrily said.

Shi Changsheng sneered and said, "General Li dared to shoot at our Dahua Marine Division. If I ask you to take a bath, what is that?"

Looking at Lin Wanrong's cold face, Li Shunchen was at a loss for words, and hurriedly said: "I was too far away to see clearly, so I missed the shot!"

Dahua's warship moved extremely slowly, and the dragon flag hanging on the mast was the most conspicuous symbol. How can you not see clearly? Even if you can't see clearly, according to the practice of sailing at sea, you have to ask first. How can you fire rashly without saying a word? This General Li made it clear that he was deliberately demonstrating.

"Misfire?" Lin Wanrong said lightly: "Okay, brother Shi, let's shoot once too. With so many shells and gunpowder on board, it's too heavy! Order to go down, everyone to fight together. Aim accurately and fire!" "

"What?!" General Gao Li was dumbfounded. There are dozens of ships in this Dahua Navy, and each ship has dozens of cannons. There are also two doors. If you want to fight together, it will be a thousand guns. It's not much worse than a sea battle. Such a big event comes out of this mouth, but it's like playing, I don't know where he comes from.

Shi Changsheng was overjoyed and ordered the flag to be lifted. The entire Dahua Marine Division was solemn for an instant, and the dark muzzle glowed with a deep gloomy light, silently aiming at the sea.

"Shoot!" The commander of the navy shouted and knocked down the flag.

"Boom——" the deafening sound of the cannon seemed to be a sudden thunder in the clear sky, and the entire fleet trembled. Li Shunchen's turtle boat was lifted up by the waves.

A boundless column of water rises from the sea level hundreds of feet away, like a tower suddenly pulled up, rushing straight to a height of two feet.

Dahua's artillery has been transformed by the skillful hands of craftsmen, and has also absorbed the strengths of the West. How can the accuracy and power be compared with that of Korea? With all the gunfire, the entire sea and sky buzzed, the land in the distance trembled, and the sea level instantly created a wave of monstrous waves, rushing in all directions.

The rumbling sound of the guns naturally alarmed the garrison on Gwangju Island, and a group of people galloped towards the sea from a distance. The golden dragon flag was flying high, with a big word "Lin" written in the middle of the flag.

"Shuai Lin, look quickly, he is a brother of the Zhongyongjun!" Shi Changsheng said loudly.

The mist gradually dissipated, and the officers and soldiers of the loyal and brave army on the shore were stunned for a moment when they saw the huge fleet, and then they jumped up excitedly, waving the flags in their hands desperately, and shouted in unison: "Marshal Lin, Marshal Lin— —”

The firing of thousands of guns is related to the overall situation of Korea, and it is not ordinary people who dare to do it. Looking at the person in front of him with a calm expression, he has done something that others dare not to do with his hands and feet. He is clean and neat, and he seems to have not taken it seriously. How is his identity unusual?

Li Shunchen's heart trembled, and he hurriedly raised his head to look at him: "Excuse me, is your Excellency—"

Seeing the face that seemed to be smiling but not smiling, a flash of lightning suddenly flashed in his mind, his body trembled suddenly, and he said in a trembling voice: "You, you are Lin San—"

I didn't expect that I was also a celebrity in Korea! Lin Wanrong laughed loudly: "General Li, you have really good eyesight!"

Li Shunchen's face was pale, and he couldn't say a word for a long time. The name of a person, the shadow of a tree, and the power of Lin San, he has only personally experienced it today. No wonder even the Turkic people who are born with a strong nature are turned pale by hearing it. Losing in the hands of such a person will never be wronged!

The Missing ship slowly approached the shore, and the soldiers of the loyal and brave army stationed in Koryo swarmed to surround the bow of the ship, and their excited calls shook the sky.

Lin Wanrong felt a little ashamed. Although he was named the commander of the Loyalty Army, it was the first time he met these soldiers. Seeing the respectful and almost worshipful eyes of the soldiers, he felt ashamed for a rare time.

The place where they landed is called Mokpo Port, which belongs to Gwangju Prefecture, and was also one of the important places for the Japanese to seize the beach in the past. In that battle, Goryeo lost 60% of its 80,000 strong men, and they were no longer able to fight anymore, so the whole military affairs were taken over by the Zhongyong Army.

Gwangju is located at the southernmost tip of Koryo, and it is still several days away from Kyoto, Seoul. Hearing that Marshal Dahualin came to Koryo in person, Jeolla Province Observation Envoy and Gwangju Dadu Protectorate Fuyin two local top officials hurried over to welcome him.

After traveling by sea for several days, I finally landed today. After the dinner, I held Yuruo's hand and strolled along the seashore, feeling indescribably happy.

Looking at the sky-high sea, the eldest lady smiled and rolled her eyes at him: "It was the first time I crossed the ocean, but you fired a cannon into it. Go back and tell Qiaoqiao and the others, you must make them laugh."

"What's so funny? If they know you've tasted all the Korean delicacies here, they must be very envious!" Lin Wanrong said hilariously.

Speaking of Korean food, the eldest lady smiled helplessly, and the two of them knew each other.

Wandering under the silent moonlight, I suddenly saw a figure flickering in the distance, hiding and hiding, as if he didn't want him to see it.

"General Li Shunchen, what are you doing hiding?" he called out with a smile.

Li Shunchen walked out from the shadows and said awkwardly, "Marshal Lin, please forgive me! I was ordered by Jeolla Dao Observation Envoy to protect your safety, but unexpectedly I alarmed you!"

This is funny, sending a general who has a problem with me to protect me? He shook his head helplessly.

This time, he wrongly blamed Jeolla Dao's Observation Envoy. Li Shunchen was the most outstanding general in Goryeo. What's more, after this war, the talents of Goryeo were withered, and he was the only one who could fight.

"General Li, what I said at that time was right for the matter and not for the person." He patted Li Shunchen's shoulder and said unhurriedly: "I hope you understand that there is no free lunch in the world, and you must pay for what you get! Yes This is true for Korea, and it is also true for Dahua!"

Li Shunchen sighed helplessly, not knowing what it was like.

"Okay, let's not talk about these disappointing things! General Li, I want to fight someone with you, a strange man who is famous in Korea!"
