Chapter 1118 Hualiu Concert Begins

"My lord, the fleet that sailed to Korea has returned!"

Standing in front of the Jiugang Water Village, Wang Yida, who was staring into the distance thinking about his thoughts, was pulled back by his subordinate's report.

"Really? Let them come here!" Wang Yida was overjoyed.

Although Chen Zuyi's base is in Jiugang, he has more than a hundred warships under his name, and has more than ten thousand subordinates. His strength is enough to torture the navies of the surrounding small countries to death, and his activities range from Japan in the north to Japan in the south Domination of Southeast Asia, westward to India and other places, are all within his sphere of influence.

More than a year ago, Wang Yida sent a team of his confidants all the way northward, leading more than 20 warships, and plundered caravans and ships from Fusang, Goryeo and other places.

At that time, the Li Dynasty of North Korea had just established a state. As a country that would not be conquered by the Ming Dynasty, North Korea was one of the most loyal vassals of the Ming Dynasty.

Because of the mountains and rough roads in North Korea, envoys from North Korea and Ming Dynasty often passed through Penglai Port.

The straight-line distance between the two places is only a few hundred kilometers, and it only takes two or three days to go back and forth.

So for a long time, the diplomatic missions of the two places have had frequent exchanges and exchanges, sometimes as many as several times a month.

But during this period of time, more than a dozen pirate warships came and went to plunder near the Bohai Sea, not only the merchant ships suffered, but even the envoys were miserable.

Let's fight, these pirates are guys who can face up to regular sailors. They are even equipped with artillery, so they can't beat them even if they want to.

Run away, Korea's shipbuilding technology is backward, the speed of the ship is slow, and the boat is small. Even in recent years, I have learned a lot of Ming's shipbuilding technology, but it is still backward, and I can't escape.

There were several rounds of envoys in a row, and none of them escaped to report, and they were all caught in one pot.

There are often various tributes and commodities on these ships, and the plundering several times has yielded a lot.

However, such frequent looting also alarmed the navy of the Ming Dynasty and dispatched a navy to suppress the bandits. The pirates kept Wang Yida's advice in mind and did not conflict with the navy of the Ming Dynasty. They started guerrilla tactics and looted some ships. Afterwards, this swaggered back to Nanyang.

After coming and going, it has been a year. Twenty warships went there, and only a dozen or so ships came back.

But the result is also gratifying. All kinds of looted goods have filled the warehouse.

It has to be said that "Chen Zuyi", the king of pirates, has been able to successfully dominate Nanyang for so many years. Naturally, it has a reason. He released his subordinates for more than a year. If it was someone else, I am afraid that he would have established himself as king , but his subordinates not only came back, but also completed the task well.

His subordinates are pirates with dreams and beliefs. Their dream is to build a maritime empire, and they will not rebel for a little property. They dream of becoming the "General Zhenhai" one day "of.

Wang Yida came to the cabin of a ship. After opening the cabin door, he saw the gold and silver treasures inside. One point is a reward for everyone's hard work this year."

What he wants is not these gold and silver vulgar objects.

For this era, these gold and silver treasures are the easiest to cash out, but in later generations there is not much added value.

When he got to another cabin and saw the things inside, Wang Yida was overjoyed.

Inside, there are some documents and personal items, as well as some books, utensils and so on.

When I opened these documents and saw that there were some letters of credence inside, I was even happier.

These things are of great historical value!
However, these things have historical value, but it is still impossible to sell them at sky-high prices.

If you really want to sell it for a sky-high price, you have to have something more valuable.

What's worth it?
"Did you catch those people?"

"Catch it, catch it!"

After a while, the pirates kicked and drove dozens of ragged and smelly captives to Wang Yida. Looking at Wang Yida, they trembled.

These days, they have been forced to work as coolies and boatmen on the boat, living a life that is worse than humans and animals. Now that they have finally arrived on the shore, what they fear most is that they will be useless and be killed.

Most of these people were envoys from Goryeo to Daming, and there were a few high-ranking officials among them. It's just that the gloomy life these days has made them lose their vigor and stand there like chickens.

Wang Yida stood at the door, staring at the cabin, and asked, "Can anyone read and write?"

Almost everyone raised their hands.

Those who can become envoys are not ordinary people after all.

"Hmm..." Wang Yida nodded in satisfaction, "Is there anyone who has read the classics and history collections?"

Many others raised their hands.

"Good, good!" Wang Yida was even more satisfied.

"Are there craftsmen?"

Someone raised their hand.

"Has anyone seen the current King of Joseon?"

Several others raised their hands.

Wang Yida almost laughed out loud.

Well, these people can accomplish great things!
In 1397 AD, the last dynasty of the Korean peninsula, the "Lee Dynasty", had just been established, and the Korean Taejo had just ascended the throne. This period of history for North Korea is estimated to have similar significance to the unification of the Qin Dynasty in China.

It is a pity that the wars in the past dynasties of Korea continued, and all kinds of history were not preserved very well. Li Chenggui, who was the great ancestor of Joseon, did not even preserve a real "Yujin" (the enshrined portrait). The only Yujin, It was repainted hundreds of years later.

With these literati and craftsmen, history is a real little girl who can be dressed up.

What kind of history should be concocted?What kind of history is most important to Koreans and would make them pay for it?

Wang Yida pinched his chin, lost in thought.

On the back seat of the car, Wang Yida slowly opened his eyes.

The car had already passed the port and drove directly into the "Sea Dragon Palace". Wang Yida found Wang Guanshan, who was in charge of the ship, and said something to him in a low voice. Wang Guanshan raised his eyebrows: "Really?"

"Anything can happen in 600 years, but if I can't find it here, I'll just go back and prepare a sunken ship." Wang Yida said.

"I'll send someone to investigate first." Wang Guanshan made a prompt decision.

Without Gu Xiaobai, it would not be so easy to salvage sunken ships at the bottom of the sea, but Sea Dragon Palace is still the best salvage ship in the world, bar none.

That night, countless spectators flocked to the "Sea Dragon Palace". At 7:[-] p.m., the Sea Dragon Palace officially left the port and headed for the dark sea.

The first sea dragon palace Hualiu concert officially begins!
