No matter how many people there are, it won't make a difference.
And Liangshan,
From this Dengzhou water fortress
They acquired more than twenty thousand-stone seagoing vessels in one fell swoop.
On this East China Sea,
It instantly became the most powerful force.
With the protection of these naval warships
After Liangshan,
Then one could easily cross the sea to Korea and Japan.
However, by leveraging the two money-making tools of white sugar and refined salt...
Liangshan will obviously have another major source of wealth!
Besides ocean-going vessels
In the water village
Liangshan also found over 100,000 strings of cash.
These must be Dang Hailong and his group.
After selling the coarse salt from Liangshan at a discount,
The money gained.
The coarse salt from these salt villages
If it were sold by Liangshan...
The money received in the end
Obviously, that's not all.
but,
With the replenishment of government and naval vessels,
In general,
This time, Zhao Yuan led his army to attack the Dengzhou water fortress.
They made a huge profit.
after all,
Money can be earned anywhere.
But this thousand-stone sea vessel,
It's not something you can just get easily.
"Second Brother Ruan, Fifth Brother Ruan, Seventh Brother,"
Zhao Yuan looked at the three Ruan brothers.
"The three of you discussed it,"
"Leave two men to guard this Dengzhou water fortress,"
"The remaining one then led the naval fleet of riverboats,"
"The money found in the village,"
"More than a thousand soldiers were sent back to Liangshan."
"Brother, I'll stay!"
"I'll stay!"
"It's better if I stay!"
.....
The three Ruan brothers immediately vied to stay in the water fortress.
after all,
For those of them who are skilled in swimming,
Now that we have seen the vastness of the sea...
Naturally, they wouldn't want to return to the cramped Jiangchuan area.
"I'm the eldest brother, it's my turn to stay!"
Ruan Xiaoer shouted loudly,
"Then I'm still the second brother,"
Ruan Xiaowu laughed,
"Since two people are to stay, I should be included."
"I..."
Ruan Xiaoqi glared angrily at her two older brothers.
Then his eyes darted around,
He looked at Zhao Yuan.
"Brother, we are three brothers,"
"Only my second brother got married and had children."
"Besides, there's my mother to support on Liangshan Mountain,"
"Why don't we let Second Brother go back?"
"Let me and Fifth Brother stay here in this water village."
"you....."
Ruan Xiaoer glared.
But for a time,
There's really no way to refute it.
In this day and age,
Whether it is the government or the people,
They all value filial piety the most.
As the eldest son, Ruan Xiaoer...
It's inconvenient to abandon my mother on Liangshan Mountain.
"I'll stay if I want to."
Ruan Xiaoer said helplessly,
"But Xiaoqi, you also need to get used to sailing at sea as soon as possible,"
"Don't get seasick again, or you'll ruin Brother Zhao's plans."
"Second brother, don't worry,"
Ruan Xiaoqi laughed,
"With our swimming skills, we can stay at sea for two or three days,"
"I've almost adapted."
"Okay, in that case,"
Zhao Yuan looked at the three Ruan brothers.
He announced loudly,
"It will be handled by Brother Ruan Wu and Brother Ruan Qi,"
"Lead their naval troops to stay and garrison this water fortress."
"If Brother Ruan still has his navy, then he will return to Liangshan."
After announcing the appointments of the three Ruan brothers,
Zhao Yuan then gave instructions to Ruan Xiaowu and Ruan Xiaoqi.
"There are many differences between sailing at sea and sailing on a river."
"During this night raid, our Liangshan forces captured nearly a thousand Dengzhou naval soldiers,"
“I’ll leave three hundred of these people for you,”
"You must disperse them and assign them to various naval units,"
"Let them properly teach them the skills of sea navigation."
"Yes!"
Ruan Xiaowu and Ruan Xiaoqi bowed in agreement.
immediately,
Ruan Xiaoqi asked again, somewhat greedily.
“Brother, those soldiers of the Dengzhou navy,”
"Isn't there over a thousand? Why only leave us three hundred?"
"Let's leave some more behind."
"The combined naval forces under your two command number only slightly over a thousand,"
Zhao Yuan said irritably,
"If we hand over all these prisoners of war from the Dengzhou navy to you,"
"Can you control this...?"
Chapter 980 Spare Me!
Ruan Xiaoqi gave a dry laugh.
Then I remembered,
Those were just prisoners of war from the government troops.
They're not brothers from a mountain stronghold.
More is not necessarily better.
"Alright, that's settled then!"
Zhao Yuan clapped his hands.
"Oh, right, brother,"
Ruan Xiaowu asked,
"Xiao Qi and I will stay behind at the water fortress,"
What about Yanzhai?
"Should we still let Tianliang manage it?"
"Tian Liang will follow me to Liangshan,"
Zhao Yuan said slowly,
Regarding the fall of Yanzhai
Both Li Feng and Tian Liang made serious mistakes.
Although now,
