Johime Three Kingdoms

Chapter 288 Heading North to Liaodong

Chapter 288 Heading North to Liaodong
After hearing what Gan Ning meant from the translator, the Star Lord of Tamluo Kingdom was obviously also thinking about whether the three Han people would threaten him in the future.

Now there is a unified kingdom in the southwest of the Koryo Peninsula - Baekje, also known as "South Buyeo".

The Buyeo people are a nation that originated in the Northeast. At this time, the Buyeo Kingdom was established between Goguryeo and Xianbei. At the same time, some Buyeo people went south to the Goryeo Peninsula and established a ruling class. Most of the civilians were the Mahans of the Three Koreas. The country of Baekje.

King Fuyu, who was relatively close to Gongsun Du, was the king of Nanfuyu.

In the eyes of the Star Lord, the Han people who never talk to them are obviously safer than the Sanhan people, especially the Baekje people, who are often in contact with them!

Therefore, with Gan Ning's equal emphasis on kindness and power, the Star Lord promised to lease the port and some surrounding land to the Han Army for a period of 1000 years. The Han Army would pay a certain amount of food every year - roughly equivalent to the food of 2000 people for a year. Gan Ning didn't bat an eye at such a petty asking price.

Gan Ning also left one-third of his soldiers and the slaves exchanged locally to further build "Baigong Port". Even if he did not bring the slaves back to the Han Dynasty, he still took the initiative to exchange the slaves for ten-year indentures. , and promised that their children, as well as current children under the age of 12, can live in Baigong Port as civilians in the future...

Afterwards, he led the main fleet and continued sailing northward under the guidance of the Hu people and Koreans in the state, aiming for Liaodong!
Gan Ning originally hoped to land directly in Liaodong County at Dajin, but the guide was more familiar with the route to Andongjin, which was to land in Lelang County.

The former is Lushunkou in Dalian in later generations, next to the famous "Ganjingzi District", and on the map it is on the "chicken's chin", while the latter is Dandong's Donggang, located at the mouth of the Yalu River, "the chicken's chin" s position.

Nowadays, the Zhouhu people mainly have contact with the Koreans. Naturally, they are more familiar with landing in the southern part of the Koryo Peninsula. In addition, they occasionally go to Lelang, which is the northern part of the Koryo Peninsula. As for Liaodong, they rarely go there.

Since they had a familiar road, Gan Ning did not stick to the original destination. Although there were Fuyu people wandering around Lelang County, they still respected the Gongsun family in name. What's more... even if he landed in the southern part of the Koryo Peninsula, Gan Ning Ning Ye was confident that he could fight his way through.

When Bai Tu received the letter from Zhouhu, Gan Ning had already arrived in Andongjin and met with the county officials of Lelang.

At this time, the nominal governor of Lelang was Liang Mao, but in fact Liang Mao was detained by Gongsun Du on his way to the post. At this time, the people who were half-recruited were Gongsun Du's staff. The Han counties in Lelang were also under the control of Gongsun. Down.

It is said that he is Gongsundu of Liaodong, but in fact he is the local overlord of the entire northeastern Youzhou, and the Han forces in the four Han counties of the Korean Peninsula are also under his influence.

Gan Ning informed the Lelang County officials that he would go to Dajin to represent the General's Mansion. After meeting with Gongsun Du, he would return to the sea route - from Andongjin to Dajin, just sail along the coastline.

The fleet also carries a large amount of cargo, which would be too costly to travel overland.

Regardless of whether the other party could notify Gongsun Du before he did, or whether the giant ship sailing along the coast would cause panic, Gan Ning arrived at Dajin in a swaggering way.

When Gan Ning landed in Tajin, Gongsun Du had already heard the news and was on his way from Xiangping City to Tajin.

Gan Ning came here to open up the trade line, and Gongsun Du was in Liaodong and could also contain Hebei. In any case, the General's Office had no reason to start a war with him. The reason why he even traded soldiers with him was not only mutual benefit, but also There are supportive factors involved.

Moreover, the Liaodong Army, the Yizhou Donghao Tribe, the Zhouhudanluo Kingdom, and the Three Hannan Fuyu are two different concepts.

The Liaodong Army is not only a real Han people, but also has been fighting against foreigners and northern princes for a long time. Although its military discipline and logistics are poor, its elite and fierce level is definitely weaker than the army of any princes!

It was almost the Chinese New Year, and even if the soldiers of the Ganning fleet prepared thick clothes, they were still shivering from the cold in Liaodong, and their combat effectiveness was only three out of ten...

Even Ji Zao soldiers' functions are affected by temperature. The Ji Zao soldiers trained in the south are very cold resistant.

If a conflict really breaks out, Gan Ning and his tens of thousands of men will probably have no choice but to escape and return to Huzhou to make plans - on land, the fleet soldiers are by no means a match for the Liaodong Army, but if they are on the sea On the other hand, the remaining [-]% combat power can also be directed to fight wherever.

In order not to increase the other party's tension, Gan Ning obeyed the announcement from the Dajin officials and stationed himself at the port to wait for Gongsun Du.

After a few days, Gongsun Du arrived in Tajin, met Gan Ning warmly, and threw a big banquet for this.

Gongsun Du and his generals and staff were also shocked when they saw Gan Ning - after all, in the twelfth lunar month in Liaodong, when it was freezing and freezing, Gan Ning was still wearing a red robe, with the skirt of his upper body slightly open, and he could vaguely see the white and tender hair. Chest, still barefoot when indoors...

"People from the bitter cold land of Liaodong can't help but sigh when they see the appearance of Governor Gan." Gongsun Du cupped his hands and said.

Even people like Gongsun Du who had adapted to the weather in Liaodong were wearing leather jackets at this time, as if they were in two seasons with Gan Ning, and... the leather jacket with a single and dark tone, and Gan Ning's bright Shu embroidery Jiangdong brocade, even more There are two styles of painting.

Gan Ning's personal soldiers, the "Jinfan Guards", also wore this kind of gorgeous and exaggerated clothes. Therefore, in the mind of Gongsun Du, who had never been to Jiangdong, probably the entire general's palace was painted in this style!
"Gongsun, the prefect, guarded the border, resisted Goguryeo in the east and resisted Xianbei in the north. The general often praised brother Gongsun and Ning." Although Gan Ning was a dog-faced person, he was good at bragging to each other.

Gongsun Du also understood Gan Ning's hint and knew that the southern general wanted to make peace with him, but at the same time... it also had a condescending tone.

However, he became even more enthusiastic about Gan Ning.

At this time, Gongsun Du's life was not easy. In the previous battle at Yijing, he originally wanted to unite Gongsun Zan and Zhang Yan to combat Yuan Shao's arrogance and ensure that there was still room for them, the separatist princes, to survive in the north.

Unexpectedly, Gongsun Zan was destroyed in the first battle, and Zhang Yan and Gongsun Du were also seriously injured. The former retreated into the mountains and did not dare to come out, while the latter could only rely on the climate and terrain of Liaodong to defend.

Although Yuan Shao's main focus now is on the front line of the Yellow River, competing with Cao Cao in the Central Plains, Yuan Shao's second son Yuan Xi, who led tens of thousands of troops in Youzhou, suppressed Gongsun Du to death. Even though Gongsun Du was angry, he could only You can take advantage of Buyeo people and Samhan people.

And he was worried all day long that after Yuan Shao defeated Cao Cao, he would look back and kill him...

Originally, before Gan Ning came, Gongsun Du didn't have the imagination to recruit Bai Tu, who was far to the south and separated from him in the hinterland of Hebei and the Central Plains.

But now that he saw Gan Ning's fleet, Gongsun Du suddenly became interested.

Even if the other party wanted to overpower him, Gongsun Du didn't mind - after all, Bai Tu was different from Yuan Shao. He was thousands of miles away from him, so what if he was overpowered?It's only in name that he keeps a low profile and is a small boy. He is still the local overlord of Liaodong...

During the dinner, Gongsun Du took the initiative to mention Yuan Shao's incident, and Gan Ning also echoed: "Yuan's thieves rebelled against the Han people, and he dared to call himself a general of the Han Dynasty. My lord has been angry with him for a long time! It's a pity that we are far away from each other, and we only teach the children of the Yuan family to be rampant." !”

Gongsun Du wanted to say, "I think you are more arrogant," but on the surface he still said, "My Gongsun Du's death is not a pity, but... I feel sad every time I think of being captured by Yuan thieves in Liaodong and unable to fulfill my duty to defend the land." .”

"Prefect Gongsun, don't worry. Although my lord is thousands of miles away from the Yuan thieves and it is inconvenient to use troops directly, but... he sent me to bring food, grass and military supplies to help the general defend the territory. At the same time... I can also trade some horses with the prefect for future wars. When Yuan Shao confronts each other, it is necessary to form cavalry."
