The Three Kingdoms of Navigation

Chapter 32 You take advantage of me

"What's going on?!" With a loud shout, Sun Shangxiang appeared in the rest cabin, stood with a knife, and was not angry and arrogant. The female pawn, who was originally very aggressive, suddenly restrained a little. The female soldiers who were getting up quickly stood in two rows along the aisle regardless of whether their clothes were neat or not. At the same time, they bowed to Sun Shangxiang and shouted in unison, "See you, General!" The voice is neat and loud, and it has its own power.

In contrast, the angry Yan Feiyan and others seemed very abrupt and stood there at a loss.

"That's all." Sun Shangxiang waved her hand and strode forward. She looked at Yan Feiyan unhappily. Then she turned her head to the female pawn and frowned: "Gaia, bully the newcomer again?"

"General Hui, I didn't bully them. It was because they spoke rudely to the king."

Yan Feiyan looked at the pawn curiously and found that she really looked different from the Han people. She turned out to be a Hu girl.

"Is there such a thing?" Sun Shangxiang lowered his face and turned his eyes to Bai Yu. The anger was already very obvious. Bai Yu hesitated for a moment and said in a low voice, "General Hui, Yan Feiyan and others are new here. They don't know the rules of the camp. There is something offensive in their words, not..."

"Okay, needless to say." Sun Shangxiang waved his hand, interrupted Bai Yu's explanation, and stared at Gaia: "Go back and get dressed. I'm ready for morning exercise."

"Oh." Gaia nodded obediently, glanced at Yan Feiyan, and turned back to her cabin. The other female soldiers were similar to Gaia, and their eyes were a little disdainful when they looked at Yan Feiyan. They rudely passed by Yan Feiyan and others, and they were full of anger.

"Come with me." Sun Shangxiang turned around and left. Bai Yu glanced at Yan Feiyan, sighed, and motioned Yan Feiyan and the others to go up together. Fortunately, they didn't take off their clothes and sleep. They didn't wash their faces and looked a little tired. On the flying Lu, Sun Shangxiang took the Sun Shao's order brought by Yan Feiyan yesterday and said to Bai Wei, "You take them to see the king. My flying tiger camp is too small to accommodate such a big person."

"General..."

"Huh?" Sun Shangxiang snorted coldly, and Bai Yu immediately stopped the topic and nodded helplessly: "Well, I'll take them there."

"Let's go." Sun Shangxiang didn't look at Yan Feiyan. He waved his hand and drove them out directly.

In frustration, Bai Yu took Yan Feiyan and others on a small boat and went straight to Sun Shao's boat. Along the way, Yan Feiyan, who was still angry, said nothing. Bai Yu looked at it and was both angry and distressed: "Lord of the village, this is a military camp, not a white tiger village. Since you chose the fifth general and the flying tiger camp, why don't you follow the military order?"

"We don't know that you have to wear so little clothes in the Flying Tiger Camp." Mu Zhiqiu pouted and said.

"Are you dressed neatly in the water?" Bai Yu smiled and said, "At that time, we didn't just go to the sea in small clothes. I heard that some people were in their teens and still went into the water naked."

"Simi's sister Bai--" Mu Zhiqiu pushed Bai Qian with embarrassment. Although Baihu Village is different from the Yi people, it is more or less exposed to the Yi wind. What's more, the Yan family is not a famous family. When it is hot in summer, Yan Feiyan often goes to the sea with the close female guards to relieve the summer heat. Of course, she doesn't wear too much, but it's all hiding from people, especially men, like Flying Tiger Camp. They really can't accept the training to dress so little under the encirclement of many men.

"At this point, I won't say more. Let's see where the king can arrange for you to go." Bai Yu thought for a second and said, "Uncle Lei's injury hasn't healed yet?"

"It will take some time." Yan Feiyan said sullenly. She is thinking about this question now. The Flying Tiger Camp will not accept her. Where can she go? It doesn't seem appropriate to follow Sun Shao. Even if she always returns to the stockade for Leizi, she will have to wait for Leizi to recover. Lei Zi was so seriously injured last time that he could not recover in two or three months.

Bai Yu sighed and couldn't think of a good way. Sun Shao's boat was not far away from Sun Shangxiang's boat. It arrived soon. Bai Yu went up to inform him that it was not long, and he leaned out of the boat to greet Yan Feiyan and others. On the board of the boat, Sun Shaojing was naked and wiping his sweat. Several equally sweaty warriors stood aside, talking and laughing at each other.

"Why, were you kicked out?" Sun Shao put on a summer coat, tied his robe, and looked at Yan Feiyan's red and swollen eyes. He was immediately shocked: "Oh, hey, who bullied you? Are your eyes swollen like this?

Sun Shao didn't say it was okay. Yan Feiyan was even more angry, but when she saw the warriors who had just smiled and looked at them, she immediately sank. She was a little timid. Sun Shao's subordinates seemed to be quite arrogant. Those women were not allowed to say that Sun Shao was wrong. These people were Sun Shao's. Guard, I'm afraid I can't listen to her explanation.

Seeing that Yan Feiyan looked at the guard next to him warily, Sun Shao couldn't help but be a little surprised. After thinking about it, he waved his hand to let them retreat. As he walked in, he asked, "Have you eaten yet?" If you don't eat, let's have breakfast together. If you have anything, let's talk about it while eating.

Bai Yu was overjoyed and quickly pulled Yan Feiyan, who was motionless. Yan Feiyan knew that this was a good time. Although she was reluctant, she still buzzed, "Thank you, Your Highness."

"Ha ha, go and wash up." Sun Shao's voice came from the inside: "What's wrong with the people who don't know it?"

Yan Feiyan suddenly blushed early in the morning. This appearance was indeed easy to cause misunderstanding, but Sun Shao said it, which was obviously a little teasing. She quickly followed Bai Yu to wash up, and then returned to Sun Shao's boat. Sun Shao listened to Bai Yu's story. It was not too surprising. He smiled and said, "You will go to the Flying Tiger Camp as soon as you come. I thought you knew it for a long time. Now it seems that you are also confused."

"So... what should I do now?" Yan Feiyan had no idea.

"You can't go to the Flying Tiger Camp for the time being." While eating breakfast, Sun Shao said, "There happens to be something for you to do. Let's put off the matter of entering the camp."

"What's the matter?"

"The leaders of several tribes have come. I'm going to arrange someone to take them to Baihuzhai for a visit and let them see how I treat my subjects. It's also a good thing to attract them to fight. Is that okay? You can go back to the stockade to clean up first, and don't be too pretentious. Just show the actual situation as it is.

Yan Feiyan breathed a sigh of relief. There was no reason. She quickly nodded and said yes. Sun Shao said to Bai Yu again, "Although they only stayed overnight in the Flying Tiger Camp, they are also predestined with the Flying Tiger Camp. Let's give those sets of armor to them. Anyway, I don't have anything suitable for them here. Just go back and tell the fifth general."

"Won." Bai Yu quickly agreed.

"In addition, you are familiar with the situation of Baihuzhai, and you are responsible for the contact between them."

"Oh." Bai was overjoyed and agreed again.

"If you have any other opinions, you can put them together. If I can promise you, I will answer you first. If I can't promise you, you can make other plans as soon as possible." Sun Shao smiled and said, "After this meal, you can go back to Baihuzhai. Baihuzhai is the flag of me to subdue the Yi people. You can't smear my face."

Yan Feiyan had an idea and put down the bamboo chopsticks: "Since the king is in grace, Feiyan does have something to invite. I hope the king is in grace."

"Tay it." Sun Shao said easily, "But don't try to repudiate."

"Uh..." Yan Feiyan was just going to bargain with Sun Shao. Unexpectedly, she was blocked by Sun Shao before she opened her mouth. She was stunned for a moment and didn't know what to say. Normally, Sun Shao now needs Baihuzhai to attract Yi people. He has to give her some benefits. How can he say that? As soon as her face sank, she wanted to show Sun Shao a little color and put a little pressure on him to let him know that Baihuzhai was not the dough he kneaded: "Your Majesty, do you want the leaders of the tribe to see a Baihuzhai that has worked hard for a year but can't guarantee food and clothing?"

Sun Shao took a look at the serious Yan Feiyan and couldn't help laughing: "Two thousand hectares of land, nearly a thousand ploughing cattle and iron ploughs, as long as you are not lazy, there is always no problem with food and clothing, right? Your Baihuzhai can't even count as thousands of children. I'll count you as 300 households. Each family has three cows and 600 mu of land. If you can't solve the problem of food and clothing, Yanzhai owner, do you still have any reason to exist in Baihuzhai?

Sun Shao was well-founded, and Yan Feiyan was speechless. She found that Sun Shao was really talented in doing business. The situation of Baihuzhai was clear in his heart, and there was nothing to hide at all. However, she was still a little unconvinced: "Nevertheless, those cows and plows are all for money. The king asks for a long price. Even if we work hard for a year, we can only pay back the king's credit. If God doesn't help us, won't we not even be able to eat?"

"Don't say that. If you think cattle and ploughs are expensive, I can give you no credit." Sun Shao didn't think so: "You know, I don't have to worry about things that can't be sold. Let me say this to you. I not only want to set up a city here in Jingua Mountain, but also in other places. I want to attract more Yi people to settle in the city. A large area of fields are waiting to be reclaimed. These cattle are so hot that they don't have to worry about selling them at all. Even if there are two thousand more, I can sell them at a higher price. He sighed and said with some regret, "It seems that I gave too much at the beginning and did bad things with good intentions. Well, you return the extra to me at the original price. I will be unlucky for more than half a month, and I will give it away for nothing."

Yan Feiyan is speechless. If these cows are returned, how can she reclaim those lands? You should know that with these cattle ploughs, she can reclaim 2,000 mu of land in half a month, and these 2,000 mu of land is only 1% of the land Sun Shao gave her. She is going to take advantage of the farmland planted by rice in this season to use these cattle ploughs to continue to reclaim the land. It will take three or five years to open half of the two thousand hectares of land. In this way, the strength of Baihuzhai can have a leapfrog development. With these cattle ploughs, the speed will be greatly reduced, which is definitely not cost-effective.

"Yan patriarch, I like win-win, but it doesn't mean I'm stupid." Sun Shao lowered his face and said, "You took advantage of me and laughed at me for being stupid. Isn't it a little unnatural?"

Yan Feiyan rolled her eyes. Why did this sound so awkward? Who took advantage of you!

The two of them were not of the same order of magnitude in bargaining at all. Although Yan Feiyan tried her best to resist, under Sun Shao's counterattack, she was defeated in a few rounds. She didn't get any bargain and went back to prepare honestly. Sun Shao said, if you think this is not good, I can transfer the conditions of Baihuzhai to others. I believe they will be very happy. As for how you survive in Baihuzhai, it's not my business. Think about it before you make a decision. After thinking about it, Yan Feiyan was still reluctant to give up such a good opportunity and had to respond.

Sun Shao did not kill them all. In addition to Yan Feiyan and several others who got a set of armor weapons, he also gave several sets of men's armor. Anyway, he also wanted Baihuzhai to dress more brightly, so that those barbarians were greedy. Later, Bai Yu reminded Yan Feiyan that there is pressure to pay off the arrears at one time this year. You can ask to pay it back in several years, so that the burden will be much lighter. Sun Shao answered, but asked to pay an interest of 10 percent every year, which made Yan Feiyan very angry and scolded Sun Shao in his stomach.

Sun Shao said shamelessly that I only charge you 10 percent of the interest, which is much cheaper than lending.

Yan Feiyan bowed his head and returned to Baihu Village. Mu's father and others were very surprised. After listening to Mu Zhiqiu's words, Mu's father was very calm and comforted Yan Feiyan that although King Yue was a little shrewd, these conditions were not harsh, and he was also very generous to Baihuzhai. If he were an Yi tribe, he would definitely not get it. Such a large piece of land, and then there is no guarantee to credit you so many cows and iron ploughs.

After a few days, slowly, the Yi people came to visit Baihu Village under the leadership of the Guan Dynasty and others. Most of them were small tribes nearby, and some also received invitations from the Black Bank and Wa'an. However, the tribes between the Yi people were free. They could participate in this kind of war or not participate, and they were not good on the Black Bank. Forced, of course, whether to find an excuse to kill you and cut off your head after winning, that is also their freedom. These small tribes were uncertain, so they secretly ran to Sun Shao to wink, bring some mountain goods as gifts, and then see what benefits Sun Shao could give, whether he had strength, and whether he was an opponent of the Black Bank, so as to decide whether to follow Sun Shao to kill the Black Bank or follow the Black Bank to kill Sun Shao.

I visited the Baihu Village and saw the busy but hopeful faces in the village. I looked at the rice fields that had just been planted, looked at the greener day by day, looked at the large areas of land to be reclaimed, and then returned to Jingua Mountain to enjoy the enthusiasm and rich goods of the Vietnamese merchants. The Yi people were jealous. One by one, the mind moves. Then, Sun Shaoyan invited them to give a little gift to each of them. The last appearance was Gu Tan. He explained to the Yi people the three-six-class mode of Yue, and told them that you can now be attached to become the people of Yue, or you can temporarily not belong to the tribe that maintains their reading ability, only as a dependency of Yue, and can even Go with the Black Bank and become the enemy of our Yue, but you should think clearly that the people of Yue and its vassals enjoy different benefits, and the enemies of Yue have only one way, that is, death.

Some Yi people are moved, and some do not think so, especially some of them are relatively strong. They don't care about the strength shown by the kings and ministers of Yue. They think it is more appropriate to wait for Hei'an and others to teach the kings and ministers of Yue. Sun Shao did not force them and politely sent them away. For those Yi people who were willing to return, they stayed for further consultation and chose to settle in the vicinity according to their tribe, size and will.

Although there were not many Yi people who were willing to submit to Sun Shao, the news of the Yi people's contact with Sun Shao soon reached the ears of Hei'an and Wa'an. Wa'an and Hei'an felt a serious surname. They didn't know how many tribes were ready to turn to Sun Shao, but they knew that it was fatal to people's hearts. Who knew how many of the tribes that promised to fight against Sun Shao were stepping on two boats?

"I can't wait. I must hit the momentum of this bullshit king, otherwise people's hearts will be scattered."

Black Bank blinked his triangular eyes, and the scar on his face from time to time. Wa'an said it easily and hit Sun Shao, but Sun Shao has more than 10,000 troops. Are these tribes opponents? After this battle, even if it is won, the loss will be very amazing.

"I think it's better to fight the White Tiger Village." Hei'an rejected Wa'an's suggestion and said his plan: "The White Tiger Village is specially made by the King of Yue for the leaders. Killing the White Tiger Village is equivalent to stepping on the face of the King of Yue. Moreover, the strength of the White Tiger Village is limited, and it is convenient to fight. If we go to Jingua Mountain, we don't have much chance of success." The four lips of Black Bank **: "No one has attacked the city."

Wa'an's eyebrows trembled and his anger surged. He heard cowardice from Black Bank's suggestion, and Black Bank was scared by more than 10,000 people by Sun Shao.

"Jicong Mountain is not too far from Jingua Mountain. What if the King of Yue reinforces?"

"Reinforcement? Isn't it much easier for him to fight when he is out of the city? Black Bank sneered.

Waan suddenly realized. Although Jilong Mountain and Jingu Mountain are not too far away, there are mountains and forests in the middle, and fighting in the mountains and forests is their strengths. Although King Yue has many warships, can his warships enter the mountain? Obviously not.

"This is a good way." Waan smiled and patted Black Bank on the shoulder hard: "If you want to talk about ghost ideas, you are still a talkative man."

"Hahaha..." Black Bank didn't think so and laughed loudly.

Baihuzhai, Lei Ke rushed into the big house. Yan Feiyan and Bai Yu, who were chatting next door, heard the footsteps stepping on his thigh board and hurried out. As soon as they saw the breathless Lei Ke, Yan Feiyan knew that Wa'an must have come back.

"Wa...An, Waan, and Black...Black Bank." Lei Ke ran with sweat on his face, and his anger was uneven. He pointed to the dark mountain forest outside: "A lot... a lot of people."

Lei Zi, the deputy patriarch who came when he heard the sound, looked at his son's embarrassment and roared unhappily: "What's the panic? Isn't it just a few barbarians? What's there to be afraid of? Take a breath and say slowly, what's going on?

As soon as Lei Ke saw me, he suddenly became short and took a few breaths. Then he said, "Black Bank and Wa'an are rushing to the White Tiger Village with a lot of people. At most, they can surround the White Tiger Village in one day."

"How many people are there?" Lei Zi was also a little nervous when he heard it.

"I don't know." Lei Ke shook his head: "It's a large area of darkness, and the back is still in the woods. We don't know how many there are. Anyway, there are people from Hei'an and Wa'an, and several large tribes nearby have also seen several. It is estimated that there are no ten thousand and eight thousand, maybe more.

"So many people?" Lei Zi dares not take it lightly. Now there are more than 500 people who can fight in Baihu Village, and there are only 800 women. In the face of the fierce Yi people, there must be more bad luck. Seeing that he is about to live a good life, he encounters such a disaster, which is really unpleasant.

"Don't worry, Baihuzhai is a citizen of the King of Yue. He won't sit idly by." Bai Yu comforted Yan Feiyan and said, "The most urgent thing at present is to report what the Yi people have committed to the king immediately and ask him to arrange someone to support him."

Father Mu, who rushed to the news, agrees with Bai Yu's view like Lei Zi. The power of Baihuzhai alone cannot be preserved. Now that he has surrendered to Sun Shao, of course, Sun Shao has to bear the responsibility of protection. There was no better way for Yan Feiyan. Now he asked Bai Yu to rush back to Jingua Mountain immediately to report the emergency to Sun Shao.

Sun Shao has got the news, but he is not in a hurry to send troops. He said to Lei Zi, who rushed to Jingua Mountain with Bai Yu, "Although the Yi people are fierce, their strength is limited. Baihu Village is not what they used to be. Can they easily attack? You can rest assured that I won't sit idly by.

Baihuzhai has been damaged a lot after the last war, so it has been overhauized. The defensive ability has indeed been strengthened a lot, but if it is only guarded by the manpower of Baihuzhai, it is too little less.

"I'll ask Flying Tiger Camp to help you." Sun Shao smiled.

Lei Zi shook his head repeatedly. There are only 500 people in the Flying Tiger Camp, and they are all women. How useful can they be? Sun Shao was a little dishonest. At the beginning, it was agreed that Baihuzhai would submit to him, and he would ensure the safety of Baihuzhai. Now that the Yiren came, he was perfunctory. He was about to defend himself, but Sun Shao didn't say much and directly asked people to invite Sun Shangxiang. As soon as Sun Shangxiang heard that there was a war to fight, his eyes immediately brighten up. Without saying a word, he immediately summoned people and horses to set out. As they rushed to Baihuzhai, there were nearly a hundred heavy carriages. The carriage was tight and looked heavy, but they could not see what was inside.

As soon as Yan Feiyan saw Sun Shangxiang, she immediately lowered her face. She seemed to be to Lei Zi, but in fact, she said to Sun Shangxiang, "Is His Royal Highness Yue going to abandon us? Can such a little person keep Baihuzhai safe?

Sun Shangxiang sneered: "Yan Feiyan, if you don't have confidence, you can hide all the people in the white tiger village. I don't need your help. My flying tiger camp alone can keep your stockade safe. However, the ugly words are ahead. If you don't participate in the war, don't share the trophy at that time."

"And!" Yan Feiyan was angry at the Flying Tiger Camp at the beginning. She didn't want to fight side by side with the Flying Tiger Camp at all. She had no confidence in the Flying Tiger Camp. Although she is also a woman and her martial arts skills are also good, she does not think that women can really be warriors. Flying Tiger Camp is strong among women, but in the face of fierce barbarians, they have no power to fight back at all.

"I'm going to find King Yue. He keeps his promise."

"It's okay to go. Let's wait until all my Flying Tiger Camps fall." Sun Shangxiang smiled proudly. Come on, open the carriage."
