Power and Empire Chapter 3062: The burning prairie fire (23)
"What a big ship!"
The huge imperial transport ship slowly stopped under the dumbfounded gaze on the Imperial Wharf. The nobles of the Yelu family who were waiting on the wharf were all horrified expressions with their mouths open at this time.
This is an imperial transport ship of the Fury Sea class. Not only the decks on both sides have been reinforced, the hull is more than 20 meters high. Although the Teijing Wharf was once a waterway hub, it is only an inland river. It’s just a transit. For real sea ships, it’s still too narrow and too narrow. Therefore, the imperial transport ships can only choose to stop on the waterway outside the pier, but even so, it is no different for the entire Imperial Capital. There was an earthquake-like sensation, and there was already a sound of exclamation from the dock. Countless people with their necks held up, looking stupidly at the behemoth on the river in the distance. For the first time, the people on the grassland who were impacted by the ocean culture felt that they were Even the wind on the river seems to be squeezed by the huge hull.
"My God, it is too big!"
"Who said no? No wonder Mongol was negligently attacked by the Empire and my Yelu family back and forth, and even the Hanshui could not stop it. The Empire has such a huge ship, a small Hanshui is nothing, let alone As far as we can’t see clearly, I’m afraid we wouldn’t have thought that there are still such huge ships in this world. It’s not an exaggeration to say that the Hanshui Skygrass is a phantom in front of such a huge ship."
Central Bialand has always been a blind spot for marine culture. Even in the most prosperous period of Central Bialand, it would avoid the unpredictable ocean. It’s not that the people of Central Bialand are timid, but because they are only around. The land still needs to invest a lot of manpower and material resources to conquer. Who would have the idea of hitting the vast sea, not to mention that the exploration of the sea area itself is a matter of decades, hundreds of years of accumulation, and it will be considered a gain. It’s not that it’s too long to be forced to develop the ocean. With that time and energy, it’s more cost-effective to cultivate more farmland on land and naturalize more mountain people in the south.
"This is the Great Ship Angry Sea!"
On the dock, an old man in a prairie purple robe was squinting, with a gleam of light flashing. It was Yelv Patriarch Yelu Hongtai. This time the empire gave the Yelv family a gift list for the founding of the country. The first one is this warship that embodies the highest technology of shipbuilding in the empire, the raging sea, especially when I see this huge hull that is like a giant beast in the river. The deck has turned up on both sides, revealing a row of dozens of black doors. Yeluhongtai's mouth is almost crooked with the thunder god’s muzzle. No matter how big a ship is, at most it will transport more, but with these imperial Thors, this huge ship Rage Sea is a real military weapon.
This huge ship is really sturdy, not only the sides of the ship’s deck are reinforced with iron rivets, but the cabin is also tall like a five-story castle tower, just like a pavilion on the sea, even if you see Yelu Hongtai, who has a much larger world, also has an urge to climb high and far away. If it can be climbed, it must be magnificent and magnificent. Only such a huge ship can represent the ambition of my Yelu family!
Yelü Hongtai’s excited old face was a little red, and the Empire’s description of this raging sea flashed in his mind. This is the crystallization of the highest technology among the Empire’s sea ships. It took the Empire two months to build. The maximum load can be loaded with 500 full-armored warriors and one hundred armored horses at one time. That is the strength of a squadron, plus the specially reinforced female deck wall, which can even withstand the bombardment of ordinary slings. The height above the river bank can make the skilled grassland shooters condescend and take advantage. In order to prevent the enemy's rocket from burning through, the deck has been specially treated, even the rocket is difficult to ignite on a large scale.
And on both sides of the ship, there are twelve Thors on each side, with a bombing range of more than 300 meters. This is the point that makes Yelu Hongtai feel the blood swelling. There are twelve doors on each side, so the ship is full of twenty. Four Thors,
As long as a ship like this is in the raging sea, you can stop tens of thousands of troops at a critical moment, and the Thunder God will shoot down and everything will be burned. What a prestige and prestige is this, the magic of the empire in the Battle of Hanshui. , Has spread throughout China and Biya, with Song fleets rushing thousands of miles into the southwest, and now the empire is using huge ships as bridges to strangle Mongolia’s 100,000 troops in one fell swoop,
What the empire sent was not a huge ship, but the foundation of the Yelu family’s navy.
Yelü Hongtai’s eyes are all red. Everyone thinks that the raging sea sent by the empire is more of a decoration on the facade. After all, in the vast land of Central and Biya, the army is fighting in all directions and the river. It has never been a mainstream battlefield, and how much impact can a huge ship bring, but in the eyes of strategists like Yelv Hongtai, this raging sea is no less than giving wings to Yelv’s family. There is Han River in the north of Emperor Beijing. , There is a big river in the south, which seems to be a natural barrier to protect the emperor, but it is tantamount to trapping the emperor himself inside, but with this huge ship, the sea is different. The Yelujia completely relies on this huge ship as the core to develop water warships. Team,
As long as there is a navy army, the Yelü family can cross the Han River north and the Dahe River in the south, as long as time is taken, they can change from a strategic defensive to a strategic offensive!
While most of the nobles of the Yelv family went to the dock to see the imperial gift, the fat man was also mixed in the ranks of hundreds of imperial cavalry and slowly passed through the gate of the imperial capital in front of him, and the empty street in front of him The shop closed tightly, and a fiasco after a stormy storm. It’s no wonder that tens of millions of slaves in Central and Bahia were released. The Imperial Capital area, which had a population of tens of millions, was immediately beaten back to its prototype, under the rule of the Yelu family. In the imperial capital area, there are only about 300,000 people from the grasslands, mainly the Yelv family and more than a dozen vassal tribes. Now without these Zhongbian slaves, the size of the imperial capital even shows the weakness of the grassland population. For the Yelu family themselves, they didn’t look at it that way. On the prairie, there are many areas where no people can be seen for hundreds of miles. The emperor in front of them is only regarded as a huge fixed camp by the prairie people. /
The imperial emperor came to the capital, and it was only a secret that a few people knew at Yelv’s house. Yelvhongtai, who came back from the dock, quickly appeared in front of the fat man. Early summer came, and the breath of summer brought the capital’s abundant water vapor. The sky was densely covered with black clouds, and it started to rain. For the prairie people of the emperor at this time, the sudden rain on the battlefield could not conceal the warm and boiling emotions in the city.
After tomorrow’s ceremony for the founding of the nation, the Yelu family will no longer call the Yelu family, but the Yelu royal court. For thousands of years, apart from the Yelu royal court, there has not been any grassland hero. Not to mention, at tomorrow's ceremony, the number of powers participating in the ceremony is rare, indicating that the number of grassland tribes who support the Yelv Family’s royal court is even more amazing.
In the past, it has been rare for the royal court to have nearly a hundred tribes, but this time the Yelv family established the royal court, not only the more than 30 tribes originally belonging to the Yelv family have come, but also more than 20 from the northwest. There are more than 80 tribes of all tribes, the eastern and western courts of the empire. It can be said that except for the northern court, almost all the grasslands have sent observers. The total number has reached more than 130 tribal forces. The Royal Court Ceremony is unique in the history of the grassland. With such a foundation, who would dare to say that the Yelv Family’s Royal Court was not in compliance with the rules. On the contrary, the Northern Court was frustrated by the confrontation between the people in the cold area. , One-third of the northern grassland has been occupied by people from the cold regions, which shows the magnificent atmosphere of the Yelv Family’s royal court.
At the same time, in the south of the big river, tens of millions of Chinese and Bianlian people are returning south, dozens of pontoon bridges are built on the big river, densely crowded here, looking at it, almost invisible to the end , If you raise your eyes to high altitude, you can see the scope of this sea of people, even a large river with a width of one hundred meters, looks so small in front of such a mighty sea of people to the south,
Countless emergency reports have also spread to the south of the big river in the past few days.
Some areas are close to large rivers, and they already feel pressured. So many people have swarmed in, and these areas have been clogged up, and this is not the most important thing, the most important thing is so much. People don’t know the reason for the consumption of food. After crossing the big river, many people in Central and Biyadh are unwilling to continue to the south, because they don’t know where the wind is saying that the south is extremely for them. It’s unwelcome, and even some areas have closed roads. The villages along the way also drove them in like a plague. Instead, it is better to stop in this area of the critical river and wait for the central court to send people to resettle it more securely
For the sudden large numbers of people from Central and Biyadh who came from the north of the river, the entire central court has long been messed up into a pot of porridge. For those who knew the truth, they hated the Yelu family’s actions at this moment. It's itchy, it's really crazy. The Yelv family drove all so many Chinese and Bianya people to the south at once. Where is the release, it is necessary to let these people die, and it is the most troublesome for the ministers of the Central Court. This is here, knowing that so many people must die before they can be resettled. The question is, who will bear this kind of black pot? The assistance reports from all over Linhe have long been piled up like snow flakes, but the court is still uncertain about whom to send.
"The large river channel area was immediately closed, and the influx of people on such a large scale might cause the Yelv family to make a big move."
Long Po, as the prime minister of the empire, directly and simply issued orders from the military. In order to counterattack the imperial capital, China and Biyah originally stationed more than 200,000 troops in the Dahe Dao area and placed them in two camps on the left and the right. At that time, all the martial law was enforced, and additional manpower was sent to guard. The defense of the camp will be doubled. Facing the slaves of Central and Bahia coming from the north, a line was drawn directly from the camp a few miles away. The entire army was heavily guarded, and the fortresses were all guarded. It was like the atmosphere of the coming war, and all kinds of materials were hoarded in the camp. In fact, in the so-called martial law war, those who are returning to the south are really defended against. Since Long Po began planning to counterattack the Imperial Capital, it has transferred three-quarters of the supplies and rations of the Central and Bianya area to the front line of the river, even if it is. The army of more than 200,000 is enough for more than half a year. Therefore, in the report of requesting assistance from various places along the river to the central court, some people proposed to transfer food to the military, but they were directly deprived of official posts by Long Po.
In fact, everyone knows that at this time, there is only the army that can come up with so much food for relief, but if you want to use the army’s food, it is tantamount to moving the roots of the dragon, and the dragon can be in the middle. Biya Chaotang covered the sky with one hand, because Long Po had the army in his hands. At this time, Zhong Biya Chaotang didn’t know how big the tide of returning from the south was. He just thought it might be a few hundred thousand. With such a large number, as long as the military is willing to let go, it can still be done. As for the threat of Yelujia in the north, although the situation was reversed in the First Battle of Hanshui River, it would take at least three to restore to its heyday in a short period of time. After five years of recuperation, it won’t be too late to respond.
Under tremendous pressure, Long Po finally chose to succumb. After all, some people have begun to call him Long Po for self-interest and he was unsuccessful, causing hundreds of thousands of people from Biyanan to die of thirst and starve to death, and even others. It was revealed that the Dragon family used millions of refugees from China and Biya as a shield in the Battle of Dragon Stone Fort~IndoMTL.com~ Even the Dragon family can’t sit still
"Send orders to all the troops along the river, and give food!"
Long Po's order has just been issued, and the ministers of the Central and Biyarian Court were secretly relieved. In any case, the impact was finally overwhelmed, but soon, the Central and Biadian Court received a message. Shocked and stunned, at the ceremony for the founding of the Yelv family, His Majesty the Emperor of China and Bahia personally congratulated him. In order to show his sincerity in friendship with China and Bahia, the head of the Yelu family, Yelu Hongtai, ordered the release of all the slaves controlled by the Yelv family. . . . . What is going on here? The ministers looked at a loss. Although the emperor knew about the peace talks with Yelu's family in the Imperial Capital, he was tacitly aware. After all, the grassland people slaughtered too many Zhongbian people, and Long Po, the prime minister of the court, did not officially admit it. The emperor is still alive
But now, the emperor appeared grandiosely at the ceremony of the Yelv family’s founding of the country, and the Yelv family’s statement of putting back all the slaves immediately made the court go crazy, all the slaves in China, what is that concept? , It's over, there's going to be a big mess! Everyone is thinking of recovering the capital, dreaming of rescuing the oppressed people from China and Biya, but only when the real thing is about to find out, this is simply a huge pit,
Thousands of people who returned to the south happened during the period of May and June. Even if they emptied all the food in the treasury, it would be a drop in the bucket. Even if they took out all the food for the troops stationed along the river, they could Even if you hold it for half a month, God has opened your eyes. What should I do after half a month? These people either starved to death, or rioted, or turned the entire South into a mess
This meadow in the southern part of Central Biyah just had some savings, how can it withstand such a huge fire! And what made the ministers in the court most embarrassed is that even if they knew that the fire would start a prairie fire, they did not dare to have the slightest obstruction, because this was released by the Yelu family for the emperor.
