Splendid peasant girl busy farming

Chapter 9516

Qinghe River.

On the river, wherever Han Feiyu looked, the number of sails increased little by little. As time passed, they seemed to jump from the river, and under the sunshine, they looked extraordinarily alive.

At this time, the scenery in the distance can already be seen clearly.

There were dozens of warships, the big warships were about the size of Han Feiyu's Feiyu, and they were also similar to Fuchuan.

It's just that there is more than one cannon placed on the ship.

The front one is the flagship, which not only has the largest specification, but also has the largest number of cannons on it.

There are more than a dozen men dressed as sailors standing at the bow of the boat.

As the navy got closer and closer to them, Luo Fengtang and Han Feiyu had already seen clearly the people standing on the flagship deck ahead.

The leading sergeant was wearing formal navy uniform.

After all, the navy is different from the soldiers on land.

The navy's counterattack is mainly based on ships. Except for boarding battles, sailors generally do not need to engage in melee combat.

Therefore, the costumes of the navy cannot be the same as that of the soldiers on land, they are armors that tightly protect the whole body.

Luo Fengtang has excellent eyesight, and it is difficult to forget people he has met.

And the commander of the navy in front is Lu Zhanlong.

Lu Zhanlong wore a short sword on his waist, and a leather case hung on the other side of his belt, inside which was the latest type of firecracker.

Now his sharpest weapon is no longer the dagger he carries with him.

It's the firecrackers specially assigned by the Ministry of War to these generals with positions.

This kind of firecracker is weaker than that in the hands of ordinary soldiers, but the advantage is that the firecracker has high precision and can quickly hit the target in a hurry.

Han Feiyu raised his hand, and afterward, the nearby gangsters started waving flags.

In water communication, because of the distance, generally speaking, the sound is basically difficult to hear, so semaphore is generally used.

Only by waving the flag can the two sides see clearly what the other side means.

The fog on the river is very thin, but even if you can see the face of the person on the other side clearly, you still need to check the semaphore.

Afterwards, the flagship passed by the Flying Fish without stopping, and two warships in the navy broke away from the team and followed the Flying Fish's sides.

Luo Fengtang can also understand the latest semaphore.

"Lu Zhanlong still has combat missions, and there is still banditry in this Qingli River?"

Luo Fengtang understood the semaphore, but was shocked.

"Of course there are. The Qingli River goes all the way to the southeast and front of Bozhou, and there are hundreds of waterways connecting it. The water bandits hiding in it dare not confront the Daqi navy. They have already been broken into parts and used They are all small boats, come and go quickly." Han Feiyu said slowly.

"Why are there still water bandits?"

What Luo Fengtang wanted to know was this. As for how the water bandits behaved, based on his understanding of the military, guerrilla warfare was an inevitable choice for the water bandits.

But he doesn't think there will be water bandits these days.

It might have been possible five years ago, but how is it possible now?

Could it be that the emperor's policies in the past five years have all been useless?

"What else can we do? The people are in dire straits."

Han Feiyu sighed, and gave Luo Fengtang the worst answer.

"How can the people live in poverty? Didn't the imperial court reduce or exempt taxes? I think the people in the capital have a much better life..." Luo Fengtang frowned.

"The capital is the capital, and Yizhou is Yizhou. The two places are different."

"The people in the capital are now benefiting from the prosperity of the sea, and they should have a better life. Even so, there are still people who are poor and even reduced to beggars, let alone Yizhou."

"The powerful gentry here in Yizhou don't care how the people live, they only care about their own well-being. This is one of the reasons why the Yang family in Bozhou is gradually growing."

Han Feiyu explained the truth.

Before that, Luo Fengtang also knew that the lands in this world were annexed, the tyrants became bigger, and the people were in poverty. After all, he was born in the countryside, but these years he was either in the capital or in the army, and he didn't even have much time to go to his hometown. There is still very little understanding of the county's hardships.

Water thieves could not appear out of thin air. Those who wanted to be water thieves knowing that the imperial court had a powerful navy were basically forced to the point of nowhere and had to desperately find a way out.

"It seems that the matter in Yizhou is not easy to handle..."

At this point, Luo Fengtang has already seen that the affairs of Yizhou can no longer be settled overnight, and it is not just a military issue.

But if you want to destroy the Yang family, the first major thing is to handle the Yizhou affairs well, and you must train a new army.

With a lot of concerns, the fleet arrived outside Tianmen Pass after a few days.

Tianmenguan is located in the middle reaches of the Qingli River, with cliffs on both sides that are cut like knives. Some ancient poems are engraved on the cliffs, which are all inscribed by celebrities. Among them, the most conspicuous ones are the three "Tianmenguan". Big letters.

"It is said that the fish here can turn into a dragon when they cross the Tianmen Pass."

Looking at the dangerous terrain ahead, Luo Fengtang talked about a rumor he had heard.

The rumors are absurd and true, but since the common people have passed them on, they also have their own reasons.

"People always hope that there will be a step to the sky, but everything in the world is made by people, and every step depends on man's effort. It is a fantasy to reach the sky in one step, and it cannot be realized."

"I'm referring to ordinary people. Those who are born to be nobles are not included here."

No matter how much Han Feiyu felt dissatisfied, the glaring facts were in front of her. There is no absolute fairness in this world.

From the moment anyone is born into this world, it is already unfair.

"It's no wonder the people, people always have good ideas, and you and I are actually people too."

Luo Fengtang always doesn't think that he is a nobleman. He was born in the countryside and made a living as a hunter when he was young. He has experienced too much hardship. The people at the bottom understand what they think.

"Master Hou, regarding the matter of Yizhou, Goro asked me to cooperate with Master Hou, what can I do?"

Han Feiyu asked.

This is a business matter, she has already handed over to the chamber of commerce, and temporarily handed over the first and last, during this time, she cooperates with Luo Fengtang to prevent him from being available.

"Don't worry, play it by ear first, and wait until I understand the personnel affairs in Yizhou."

Luo Fengtang said.

"The governor of Yizhou is Wan Yiren, and the military town is mainly presided over by General Huwei Yang Huchen. There are a few more prominent figures, but they are not as good as these two."

Han Feiyu said.

"Since the people here in Yizhou are already in dire straits, these two people seem to have some problems. When I get to Yizhou, I will continue to observe these two people."

Luo Fengtang said.

"Master Hou is here, they have already got the news."

Han Feiyu said.

"Will come to pick me up."

Luo Fengtang turned his gaze forward.
