Traveling through the Legend of the Condor Heroes: I, Yang Kang, Have Nine Yang

Chapter 267 Coastal Base

After the meeting was held, Yang Kang briefly explained Yang Miaozhen's letter.

At this time, the situation in Shandong was extremely complicated, basically the four forces of Song, Jin, Mongolia and Ming fought against each other.

Several cities in the west of Shandong are occupied by the Kingdom of Jin. After all, the core cities of the Kingdom of Jin, such as Bianjing, are further west, so there is no way to back down.

On the other hand, the northern and eastern parts of Shandong are sporadically represented by several Mongolian forces that surrendered in the Central Plains, and do not directly border Mongolian land; however, once the Kingdom of Jin attacks them aggressively, Mongolia will suddenly attack them in the north. Apply pressure to contain the Jin army.

Moreover, Zhongdu has been occupied. To the east of Taihang Mountain, the North China Plain is flat. The Jin army can only resist along the Yellow River and Taihang Mountain. Often go south to support.

As for the Song people in the south, they were much more cowardly. Basically, they were all from the Red Coat Army centered towards the Southern Song.

As for the influence of Yang Miaozhen and Peng Yibin, there are only a few cities such as Yizhou and Mizhou left, and they can be regarded as the weakest among the few forces.

But all that will change later.

Yang Kang didn't discuss too much this time, and in his opinion, there is no need for too much discussion.

It has been two months since he rushed back before, and there are to congregants in the headquarters that can be used for combat, which is not a small force.

However, if you want to directly support Yang Miaozhen and others, it is obviously unrealistic. After all, they are located in Jiaxing, located in the Southern Song Dynasty, and 3 to people moved on a large scale. How could it not attract the attention of the Southern Song Dynasty court?

What's more, many of them live in Jiaxing as workers, and they still have the important task of developing the Mingjiao industry.

Therefore, Yang Kang decided to only use the troops from the Four Sects of Heaven, Earth, Wind and Thunder and the Five Elements Banner.

Among them, there are about people in the Five Elements Banner. Under the leadership of their respective banner owners, they were broken up into pieces on land and rushed to Yizhou, which can greatly reduce the probability of being discovered.

On the other hand, Yang Kang himself took the fighters from the Four Gates of Heaven, Earth, Wind and Thunder, and rushed from the sea to the Shandong area by boat, and the target was not Mizhou and Yizhou, but Ninghai Prefecture.

The modern name of this place is Weihai, and it is a city in the easternmost part of the Shandong Peninsula, surrounded by the sea on three sides, so there is no worries.

The reason why Yang Kang chose this place is also very simple, he wants to start his great cause of conquest from here.

At this time, Mingjiao had dozens of large ships, each of which could hold two or three hundred people. Yang Kang carried forty ships with four thousand people and a group of food and grass for loading his own four gates of heaven, earth, wind and thunder, and the rest Ships will be used to explore Yizhou Island.

Yang Kang will take away a lot of people on this trip, so he can't ignore his own internal affairs. Zhong Qizhi is already familiar with this aspect, and the luckiest thing is that he has a good helper like Huang Rong, who can check all aspects of Yang Kang, so that Mingjiao can continue Continue to develop according to the direction given by Yang Kang, so as not to lose the direction.

At the same time, with Huang Rong's presence, I don't worry that someone will secretly destroy the Mingjiao headquarters. After all, Huang Yaoshi also returned to Jiaxing a few days ago. Or to help deal with Mingjiao things.

At the same time, he himself is also admiring and curious about the many weird but real advanced technologies proposed by Yang Kang, and he feels more and more that he and this son-in-law are really like-minded!

After sailing for more than half a month, on the vast sea, the gray-blue sea, connected with the gray-blue sky, set off with light floating clouds and dark-colored peaks, hangs like a faint ink painting on the horizon.

Yang Kang was really sailing on the sea at this time, and only then did he experience the difficulty of sailing at sea, which is far more difficult than sailing in inland rivers.

The control of the direction, the impact of the storm, the impact of the waves, the stability of the channel, the damage of the ship, the health of the sailors, the sufficient supply of salt, the sufficient supply of the ship, the maintenance of the ship, the repair and maintenance of the channel, etc., every day This work is handled by extremely difficult and difficult people.

He brought Lu Guanying with him on this trip - the only general among his men who has rich experience in water warfare (fighting with the Taihu bandits for many years and finally became the leader of the Taihu bandits) at this time also seemed a bit unattractive.

Fortunately, the maritime trade in the Southern Song Dynasty was relatively developed. He also hired several maritime merchants during his trip. With their help in guiding the waterway, Yang Kang also went smoothly.

But such days are finally coming to an end. After more than half a month of sailing, Yang Kang's fleet is already very close to the destination, and the land, port and sailing merchant ships are right in front of them.

The people on land were also very surprised by Yang Kang's sudden arrival of such a large-scale fleet, and they all speculated about Yang Kang's origin, which naturally included the port envoys in this place.

However, as the ships anchored, people saw the weapons in the hands of the people on board, and they all exclaimed and turned around and fled.

Yang Kang didn't care about this, and directly ordered Jiang Sheng to take the least number of Lei Zimen's subordinates to capture the wharf envoy here. As for the other three sects, they went directly to Wendeng County in Ninghai Prefecture.

This Ninghai Prefecture is still under the jurisdiction of Jin officials for the time being, but in fact it has long been abandoned by Jin people, but because it is too remote, neither Li Quan, Yang Miaozhen, nor Peng Yibin can take care of it, so it is still ruled by Jin officials for the time being. He also comfortably worked as a local emperor for several years.

And with the arrival of thousands of people like Yang Kang, Ninghai Prefecture suddenly fell into chaos. People in the government hid one after another. There is no courage to stand up and stop this army.

Yang Kang didn't bother to talk nonsense about this, and directly ordered the people from the Four Sects of Heaven, Earth, Fenglei to forcibly capture Yemouping County, Ninghai Prefecture. Two counties were taken by Mingjiao, and even the surrounding counties and towns were also taken by Mingjiao.

The local officials quickly surrendered, and Yang Kang did not stop quickly. He is now a surprise attack, so the victory is extremely easy, but the future will definitely increase his own difficulty, so it is best to go all out and take the surrounding Laizhou together. .

The only regret is that Yang Kang's troops are only , the force is too small, and it is difficult to occupy and manage.

Fortunately, Yang Kang is under the banner of Mingjiao. Although Mingjiao is above the rivers and lakes, although the people's livelihood is not good, it still has a bit of a foundation among the common people. has survived and even flourished.

As a result, many Mingjiao believers among the poor people spontaneously stood up to help Yang Kang incorporate the local government, and at the same time, they were also responsible for managing the affairs here.

Yang Kang only needs to send a few assistants who are good at management among his subordinates, and he will go all the way to attack Laizhou.

This time Mingjiao won an extremely easy victory here, which also boosted the confidence of Mingjiao believers. They felt that Mingjiao no longer had to be afraid of the Kingdom of Jin as before, and suddenly became active.

Under Yang Kang's instruction, he began to recruit new believers to expand Mingjiao's sphere of influence.
