Chapter 2377: It is imperative to cut the Guizi scroll

  Chapter 2377 Guizi Juan is cut first and then played, it is imperative

   "Then how many people are going to trade in Ezo now?" Feng Ziying really didn't know that Xue Biao's fleet also often traveled to Ezo and Nanyang, and his impression was still from last year.

"There have been more since last year. The buckskin bear skins in Ezo are of good quality and large quantity, and the dried fish is also large in quantity and cheap, and they are also willing to trade with us in China, so gradually there are more. Japan There seems to be a Matsumae family over there claiming that they have obtained the entrusted trading rights of the Japanese shogunate. They have trading points and settlements on the Ezo side. We are not allowed to trade directly with the Ezo people and require us to go through them, but we I ignored them, and they didn't dare to forcibly obstruct them."

  Xue Biao's introduction aroused Feng Ziying's interest but also his vigilance.

  He thought that the Japanese shogunate should not have set foot in Ezo, but he did not expect that the Matsumae family had already begun to infiltrate Ezo, which disrupted his plan a bit.

  I am still thinking about waiting until the domestic affairs are dealt with before officially launching the colonization of the Ezo land. Now it seems that I am still a little careless. Fortunately, Xue Biao and their sea trade fleet have begun to intervene in the Ezo trade, so that's good.

   Seeing Feng Ziying groaning silently, Xue Biao didn't know what he said was wrong, and felt a little uneasy.

   Fortunately, Feng Ziying reacted quickly and waved his hand.

"You have done a good job. Don't pay attention to the Japanese. Ezo is the territory of Dazhou. Japan has no right to intervene. Otherwise, you can only use the cannons of the Denglai Navy to speak. The Matsumae family can be regarded as a Japanese who came to Ezo. Traders, next time you go to Ezo, you can clearly inform the people of the Matsumae family that Ezo is under the jurisdiction of Dongjiang Town, including Kuwu, they can come to trade, and you are also welcome to come directly to our Dazhou trade, not limited to Ezo, Liaodong, Jeju Island, and Denglai can all be used, but one thing must be clear, Ezo is the territory of the Great Zhou, and no one or any force can covet it."

   Xue Biao finally understood and nodded again and again.

"We should continue to strongly encourage the trade in the Ainu. In addition, we should also encourage our people to go to the Ainu to build trade points and settlements. We can sell ironware, fishing boats, and fishing nets to the Ainu people. At the same time, we can consider teaching the Ainu people Our language and writing, especially from childhood, are taught, . . . "

   Xue Biao didn’t understand for a while why Feng Ziying suddenly became so interested in Yezi again, and also sent someone to teach language and reading and writing, which is a bit too exaggerated.

  But he didn't dare to question, he could only nod.

   I just don’t know how much effort it will take to find someone who is willing to go to Ezo to teach speaking and writing. I don’t know how high the price will be, and they will definitely not work for too long.

"Okay, I'm going to break the topic for the time being. I'll talk about the matter of Ezodi in the future. Let me talk about the things I told you first, the preparation of the fleet. The specific time may be one month later. I will then Notify you about ten days in advance." Feng Ziying said in a deep voice: "About 150 ships are needed, enough to transport about 40,000 to 60,000 people,..."

   Xue Biao was terrified when he heard it. This must not be transported to Liaodong. If it is transported to Liaodong, it doesn’t need to be so mysterious, and Liaodong doesn’t need such a big force. Where else can it be?

   Didn’t it mean that the imperial court had reached an agreement with Nanjing?

   Knowing what Xue Biao guessed, Feng Ziying did not explain: "This matter is absolutely confidential, unless I officially notify you, when asked outside, you said that you are transporting pioneers to Dongfan,..."

Xue Biao nodded again and again, not daring to ask any more questions. This brother-in-law has always been so wise that he was almost a monster, and he was decisive in killing and attacking. In the battle of Liaodong, he planned a strategy, took charge of the central army, and defeated the Jianzhou Jurchen. I am terrified.

  Now whether it is the Liaodong Army or the Jizhen Army, the reputation and prestige of Xiao Feng is no less than that of his father. In the Denglai Navy, the name of Xiao Feng is the only one.

  Xue Biao didn't know that Feng Ziying's reputation was even more prominent among the armies in central Beijing. From the Beijing camp to the Shangsanqin Army, and then to the Wucheng Bingma Division, everyone thought that Little Governor Feng was the God of the Great Zhou Army.

   After sending Xue Biao away, Feng Ziying saw Shen Yourong.

   There is nothing to hide about Shen Yourong, and Shen Yourong is also full of praise for this plan.

"It should be so. The court should have dealt with such a **** like Chen Jixian categorically long ago. Isn't it unreasonable to let him sit on the throne? Those who come out of the Beijing camp really think that they can be kings and overlords, and occupy Yangzhou and think that it is really him. land."

  Shen Yourong is also hot-tempered, old and spicy.

"The strength of Huaiyang Town is less than 70,000, of which there are about 30,000 to less than 40,000 from the Fifth Army Battalion. Later, 20,000 were added in Xuzhou, and some were recruited in Yangzhou. At present , there are about 5,000 people stationed in Suqian, about 10,000 people in Qingjiangpu, not many in Shanyang City, about 3,000 people, the main force is still in Yangzhou, about 10,000 people in Gaoyou Prefecture, and 5,000 people in Baoying , the rest are basically stationed here in Jiangdu. At first he wanted to garrison Yizheng, but he was warned by Nanjing, so he gave up. A hard-nosed wimp can be intimidated by Nanjing.”

  Shen Yourong was extremely disdainful towards Chen Jixian, but judging from his words, he had also done some understanding of Huaiyang Town, and it seemed that he had already planned to do something about Huaiyang Town.

   But think about it, who is the Denglai Navy established to fight? Now the activities of Japanese pirates are gradually fading away. They have basically disappeared north of the Yangtze River Estuary, and rarely seen in the south of the Yangtze River Estuary. Moreover, there are still Fujian naval forces there, so after all the calculations, the only way to deal with these Nanjing puppet dynasties is to deal with them. .

  But there was no movement from the court, and Shen Yourong was a little desperate. Now, he finally got some good news.

  Don't say it's a plan by the Ministry of War, even if it's a hint from the Ministry of War, Shen Yourong is ready to do a big job. When it comes to fighting on the water, Shen Yourong really hasn't been afraid of anyone.

"It's not just Yangzhou. Yangzhou is not the focus of the navy's raid, but Jinling is." Feng Ziying reminded, "We want to take Jinling City before Prince Tengdong enters Jinling. As for Yangzhou, that is the second goal. .”

"If Wang Ziteng really dares to go down the Jiujiang River, that would be great. I hope to teach him a good lesson on the Yangtze River, but to be honest, Wang Ziteng's old Denglai army is also a descendant of Qilu. It's a pity that the battle was lost on the Yangtze River, the old Denglai army can still fight, it's much stronger than the Huaiyang army." Shen Yourong said truthfully, "It would be the best if we can recruit."

Feng Ziying didn't answer this question. No one can guess what Wang Ziteng is thinking now. Although he also passed the message to the Jia family, it's hard to say whether it will reach Wang Ziteng's ears. Whether Wang Ziteng will listen or not .

  Feng Ziying discussed with Shen Yourong about the use of the Fujian Navy, and Shen Yourong also agreed to keep the Fujian Navy a secret for the time being, and announce the order at the last moment, so as to maximize surprise.

  As for Xindenglai Town, Ji Town, and Liaodong Army going south, Shen Yourong is much more familiar with it than Feng Ziying.

   This is the first time that such a large-scale transport of troops from the north to the south has been carried out. The last time it was only from Dagu and Yuguan to Liaodong.

Fortunately, this route has already been traveled by these ships too much, and the route cannot be more familiar to Shen Yourong, how to avoid bad weather, how to drive near the shore, how to match the ships, and where to choose to land, Shen Yourong is very familiar with it. It only needs the full cooperation of the fleet organized by Xue Biao.

  With an old navy general like Shen Yourong around, he is at ease, and everything is left to him. Feng Ziying only needs to talk about goals and make requests, and Shen Yourong will naturally arrange all the plans properly.

   Come and go, Shen Yourong only stayed in Tianjin Wei for half a day, and then left delicately.

  The same goes for Xue Biao. He returned to Yuguan first, and then went to Denglai. He began to mobilize ships calmly, and if necessary, he also mobilized some ships from Ningbo to go north.

  Feng Ziying didn't worry about these things either, he didn't doubt the employment, and he didn't need to use the suspects. The last time he transported troops to Liaodong, Xue Biao had already proved Xue Biao's ability.

   After finishing official business, it is natural to go to private affairs.

   They have all come to Tianjin Wei, and they will have to stay at least two days to inspect the military affairs of Tianjin Wei, which is natural and reasonable.

Turning over from Busia Mara, seeing Busia Mara getting up naked, she went straight to get a cloth towel to wipe her body. She has a healthy and plump body that she never tires of. Her **** and buttocks are tall and straight, full and firm , the whole body is filled with a moving luster.

  Busia Mara is still not used to outsiders cleaning up her body, especially after getting married with her lover, she prefers this kind of world with only two people.

   Towels and hot water were prepared long ago, and I wiped myself clean first, then came over, cleaned Feng Ziying, and went back to lie down next to Feng Ziying.

"I'm the fertile period you said, you don't care about it, you might have to get pregnant again." Busia Mara sighed, "I'm tired of carrying these two, I don't want to have another baby gone."

"That's up to you, who made your land so fertile, you can reap the harvest, and it's a bumper harvest." Feng Ziying put her hand on Busia Mara's chest, and said with a smile: "Others are envious. Well, you still hate it."

   "It is enough for me to have sons and daughters, and I am very satisfied." Busia Mara shook her head, "And I am not young anymore."

  Busia Mara is already thirty. In this era, she is already considered an advanced maternal age. Of course, in later generations, it is not considered so. There are many cases of old clams giving birth to pearls.

"Thirty is the golden time for childbirth. You don't have to worry too much about it, just let nature take its course. If you really want to, just give birth. You can't raise it. There are many people in my house who are looking forward to it." Feng Ziying relented road.

   "Since I want to give birth, I will definitely raise it myself." Busia Mara curled her lips, "If you really have the energy, take Zena first and let her give birth to you."
