Lord of the House
Vol 8 Chapter 22: assassin
(There was a problem with the network at home yesterday, so I could only choose to log in to the website, get up early, and upload it in the cafe; mobile is cheaper, but it is really not as stable as telecommunications, so frustrating!)
Kugajima Chi Zhou sent someone over, and Lin Fu asked Yamashita Jinggo to leave first, and asked Chi Zhou's messenger to come in.
"Yan Baishan, Kuga Island, pays a visit to the envoy of the system!" Yan Baishan, the envoy of Chi Zhou, led him into the cabin, and immediately knelt down and kowtowed, honoring the official title of Lin Fu.
Lin Fu looked at Yan Baishan, a fifty-year-old, with a frosty white beard under his chin, a black and thin face, and small eyes, as if crowded. His appearance is unremarkable, even if he has changed into a plain blue robe, he looks more like an old fisherman who has been sunbathing at sea for many years, but this man is Chi Zhou's most reliant counselor. A dozen or so are important figures in the pirate force of Kuga Island.
Compared with the Saga clan who sent Yamashita Keigo to come here, Kugajima Chihou, who is only a water away from Fukue Island, did not dare to send a small character casually even if he wanted to perfunctory Huaidong Military Commander.
Lin Fu took office as the envoy of the Huaidong system in less than half a year.
From Jin'an or Mingzhou, or from Chongzhou, the route to Kyushu Island has not really been interrupted. What is the situation in the Central Plains? Not only do the feudal kingdoms on Kyushu Island and Honshu Island have a general understanding, but also the larger pirate forces around them are constantly watching over there.
Yan Baishan walked into the cabin and greeted the small people to meet the officials, which surprised Lin Fu a little.
Lin Fuwei was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Mr. Yan is very polite. If you have something to do here, please sit down and talk..." Let the attendant bring an embroidered scorpion in front of the case and ask Yan Baishan to sit and talk.
"Shen Heming is entrenched in Fujiang Island and has committed many crimes, and all the commoners on the five islands have suffered from it. The five islands have the intention to remove them, but the people are weak and dare not act rashly. A major harm, the people are hanging upside down. The people recommended the younger one to express their gratitude to the adults, and the second is to prepare some small gifts to reward the master and condolences for the hard work of the adults..." Yan Baishan said.
The pirates entrenched on Kuga Island were all good people, Li Shu, and Lin Fu snapped his eyeballs and ate them.
Bounded by the narrow strait between Kuga Island and Fukue Island, the south is often called the South Five Islands, and the north is called the North Five Islands. Including Fukue Island, the pirates in the northern five islands mainly made a living by looting the sea and extorting business travelers.
Unlike the northern five islands, which are all rugged and mountainous, the southern five islands have a slightly gentler terrain. After Chi Zhou occupied Kuga Island, people were allowed to farm on the island, but they were still pirates.
Compared with other pirates, Chi Zhou was clever in that he only used Kyushu Island as a dumping ground for looted goods, and rarely did any cases nearby, so he was able to stand in this sea area for more than ten years without being expelled.
In any case, Chi Zhou sent Yan Baishan to express his goodwill, and Lin Fu would not turn him away at this time, saying, "Mr. Yan is serious..."
"I am waiting for the common people, crossing the ocean, and living on this isolated island. I have no food and clothing, and I have been invaded by strong thieves. I have always longed for the protection of the imperial court," Yan Baishan said emotionally, " Today, the imperial envoy led Master Wang to come across the sea. It is like seeing parents and relatives, like raining, and I am happy. I can't express it in words. I hope you don't blame the small joy and say the wrong thing..."
"How could that be?" Lin Fu smiled and said, "It is said that the speaker is innocent, and he said something happy, how could he be wrong?"
"Your Excellency suppressed Shen Heming, but to prevent Fujiang Island from being occupied by other strong thieves, and then harming Haidong, Xiaobai dared to ask your Lord to keep an elite guard of Wang Shi so that more than 10,000 Li Shu on the five islands could always be under the protection of the imperial court. !" Yan Baishan said.
Lin Fu glanced at Yan Baishan and knew that he was using the pretense of plea to test the fundamental purpose of the Huaidong Army's cross-sea eastward expedition.
"I do have this idea," Lin Fu said, "but I don't know if Master Wang is staying here, whether the people of Wudao are really welcome or fake..."
Staring at Lin Fu's sharp eyes, Yan Baishan's heart jumped.
Just as Yamashita Jinggo came to visit Fukue Island on behalf of the Saga clan, before Yan Baishan came over, he thought that Huaidong Military Commander was unlikely to be interested in this island.
Lin Fu didn't hide it, and directly stated his intention to garrison the army. Yan Baishan's prepared remarks were useless for a while, and he kept saying: "How can it be a fake welcome, how can it be a fake welcome? Huanxi It's too late, it's too late to be happy..."
Lin Fu and Yan Baishan perfunctory for a moment, then left the gift of the army he carried and let him go back to Kuga Island.
************
"The Saga clan may endure that Fukue Island will send hundreds of soldiers to Huaidong, and if Chi Zhou leads his troops to surrender, it will be a big move," Song Jia said, "Chi Zhou's forces are stronger than Shen Heming, but to tolerate Shen Heming occupying Fujiang Island, I think he mainly does not want to arouse the alertness of the Fusang people!"
The five main islands of the Goto Islands are very close to each other, almost like a Dokdo, like the strait between Fukue Island and Kuga Island, and the South Exit is only more than 400 steps away.
The entire Goto Archipelago is about the same size as Xisha Island, and it is only more than 20 miles away from the nearest point on the north coast of Kyushu Island.
In the history that Lin Fu knew, Meng Yuan had crossed the sea twice to conquer Japan and Japan, but they were all defeated. If the Mongolian Yuan occupied the Goto Islands in advance and used the Goto Islands as the advance base, the history of its eastward expedition to Japan/Japan would likely be rewritten.
Not to mention the Saga family, other vassal states of Kyushu Island, and even the vassal states of Honshu cannot tolerate the entire Goto Islands falling into the hands of Huaidong Military Commander.
This is far beyond the scope of garrison protection of trade routes.
When Yan Baishan came over, it was revealed in his words that Chi Zhou was willing to accept recruiting.
Whether Chi Zhou wanted to use the name of Zhao'an to separate the realities of the Five Islands, or he wanted to use Zhao'an to perfunctory here, it was a headache.
"In the end, the situation here will become clear after the battle with the Koreans has been decided!" Lin Fu said, "Neither the Saga clan nor Chi Zhou are idiots, including Shen Heming, I'm afraid they are not at all. I thought I would draw troops to fight Fukue Island before the battle of Danluo Island!"
"..." Song Jia smiled sweetly and said, "When you defeat the Koreans on Danluo Island, Shen Heming still doesn't want to flee? If Shen Heming escaped early, Chi Zhou would send someone to occupy Fujiang Island first. With you, you have no name to directly occupy Fujiang Island!"
"Shen Heming won't count this." Lin Fu smiled.
Song Jia smiled and said, "If you have Shen Heming, you will settle accounts, and you won't be bribed by the Koreans to hit Jeju..."
Lin Fu smiled proudly, and now Lin Jingzhong came in from outside.
The third group of ships from Chongzhou to Danluo Island has docked. Chongzhou has a letter to report the economic state, and Lin Jingzhong brings in a large stack of ponds and Di newspapers.
All the slips were color-coded to show their priorities; Song Jia knelt on the soft couch and cut out Bazhu's urgent letter with a paper cutter. The first letter was not good news, Song Jia handed it to Lin Fu with a solemn expression.
On the day of the Lantern Festival, there were heavy snowfalls in Chongzhou, Hecheng and other places. At noon, a large tide, which is rare in winter, broke out and invaded the coastal areas of Hecheng, Gaocheng, Jianling and Yandu, causing a catastrophe.
Due to the location above the tidal waterline for defending the seawall, and there are few storms in winter, everyone is not well prepared for winter high tides, and there are two construction sections north of Hecheng who suffered extremely heavy losses. More than 200 people drowned in the labor camp alone, and the number of people who drowned in salt households and farmers was even more.
"We must build the seawall!" Lin Fu sighed. Hecheng is relatively higher in terrain, while the coastal areas of Gaocheng, Jianling, and Yandu are lower in terrain. The Hailing Mansion, the Huai'an Mansion, and the Lianghuai Salt and Iron Envoys were in charge of the matter. He didn't need to ask, but no one would feel bad for such a loss.
Seeing that Lin Fu didn't mean to annotate the letter, Song Jia took the letter and archived it for collection, thinking to himself: Counting the great tide in the summer of the ninth year of Chongguan, the two major disasters in Huaidong in three years, the losses were extremely heavy. If the sea wall cannot be built, Huaidong is really not a good place to take root.
Most of the prisoners of war in Fujiang Island were transported to Danluo Island by boat, and a small number of them stayed behind to supervise the restoration and reinforcement of Fujiang Village. It is anchored in the harbor between the islands.
Lin Fu and Song Jia were on the Jinhai ship, and it was late at night after the official letters accumulated for nearly half a month had been disposed of.
Just as Song Jia was about to leave and return to the cabin to rest, she heard someone shouting from the deck, "Someone is digging a boat underwater!"
The thin part of the Jinhai ship is also five or six inches thick. Not to mention, the bottom of the ship is reinforced, and it is also densely covered with copper nails to prevent moths. The whole ship is divided into sixteen watertight cabins.
Even if he let it go and gave him twenty or thirty people to dive underwater, he might not be able to sink the Jinhai for a long time.
In addition to its own **** force, Jinhai also has two Jiyun-class warships and four squat warships stationed around, dedicated to escorting. At this moment, two Meng Chong warships approached first, took long poles and hooks, and stretched them out to catch the water ghosts who were digging their ships under the sea. Suddenly someone shouted: "In front, in front!" The water ghost was found in the front, and many guards on the deck ran to the front.
Song Jia was about to go outside the cabin to see what happened, but Lin Bie grabbed her and said, "You sit here!" He grabbed the saber under the desk, straightened his body, and listened to the movement outside the cabin. Zhou Pu walked in with four squires and guarded Lin Fu closely. Lin Fu asked them to pay attention to the movements outside.
Immediately after, there were two muffled sounds of "puff" from the back side. If you don't listen carefully, it's easy to ignore the past!
Zhou Pu pulled out his saber, and a shadow slammed into the back window and slashed him in the middle. Song Jia splattered blood on her face, startled, Lin Bie put out the light and pulled Song Jia to retreat to the corner, leaving room for Zhou Pu to play. Two more assassins broke in, but they didn't expect the lights in the cabin to go out at this time. It was not their turn to identify the master of the assassination. Zhou Pu and the two guards slaughtered them. The four guards also came in to support...
Divert the attention of most of the guards on the boat through the water ghosts that chisel the boat under water~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Create an opportunity for assassination. It's not very clever, but it has some uses. It's a pity that the timing was so short, and the three assassins who dived aboard did not have the opportunity to seize the opportunity.
The three assassins were quickly killed, and the water ghost, who was digging the boat underwater to attract attention, was also killed and caught two alive.
The two water ghosts were dragged in, trembling all over, thinking that they were not afraid, but were frozen and covered in water.
Lin Bie looked at the two short water ghosts wearing leather backs and asked, "Who sent you here?"
The monarchs of the Japan/Hen feudal lords confront each other, the big one is no more than a dozen counties, and the small one is no more than a few townships. There is no so-called strategic depth of each faction, and it is often a battle that determines life and death, victory or defeat. Compared with the desperate battle on the battlefield, the victory of assassination is easier. Assassinations often occur between Japan and the vassal states, but Lin Fie did not expect that it would be his turn.
Li Ji, the prince of Danluo, and Ma Pohou arranged for people to search for assassins who might still be hiding.
Assassins all have the consciousness of being dead men, these two water ghosts obviously won't let go/confess just because Lin Fu said a word, Lin Fu saw Ge Cunxin and Lin Jingzhong coming in, and said: "You go to find Li Ji and Ma Pohou, before dawn. Complete preparations to attack Matsuura!"
"Ah!" Ge Cunxin was stunned and said in surprise, "The assassin may not have been sent by the Saga family!"
"Who knows," Lin Fu said with a cold smile, "Since the Saga family is the closest, let the Saga family be responsible for this!" He waved and let the two water ghosts be dragged down, without seeing the two water ghosts facing each other. What was the reaction to his order!
Song Jia knew that Lin Bie just needed an excuse to attack the Saga family directly! My QT room is open! More vulgar official QT room number [9167] Click to enter
