14. Gongfu according to Wando

"Danluohu!" On the Qinglong who was leading the way, Zhang Baogao saw black shadows flashing in the grass on the shore, and then a spear and arrow flew over his head. He couldn't help but shout angrily, half-kneeled, held the Divine Thunder Gun on his knee with his elbow, and pinched the snake's head.

The muzzle shook and fireworks, screaming in the grass, a short "Danluohu" covered her stomach, as if she was bowing to Zhang Baogao, and she was loaded into the water. The body quickly floated up and was knocked away by the Qinglong hull.

Danluohu is named after living on Danluo Island, which is now Jeju Island.

They were not Sillas or Japanese, but islanders with independent customs and ethnic groups. In fact, Danluo Island was an independent kingdom during the Tang Dynasty. They had contacts with Sillas and Japan. The reason why they were called "Danluohu" was because their customs were closer to the Xianbei and Wuhuan. They would herd horses on the island, but they would also make ships voyages and trade. They were short, wore fur on the upper body, and were completely naked on the lower body.

The pirates of Silla often colluded with Danluo and ravaged this sea area, plundering the people of Silla to the Tang land as slaves.

Because Zhang Xi's fleet was large and the use of Si Nanxing made the ship formation possible (the Japanese ships of Tang separated from each other as they walked), the pirates did not dare to act rashly.

But now, Zhang Xi's fleet takes the initiative to find trouble for the pirates.

The Baishuimen on the Qinglong skillfully fucked the muskets and kept shooting thunderous sounds, killing the ambushed Danluhu one by one. The surface of the pu quickly filled the body of Danluhu, and the rest of the Hu people began to run towards the cave deep in the island like frightened birds.

It's like a hunt.

Then Zhang Baogao jumped down, stood on the shore, replaced the Divine Thunder Gun, pulled out the Su Tie Knife he was wearing, and the rest of Baishuilang followed him closely, holding the man cards and the palladium in front, and the one in the back held the sword tightly, climbed the land on the island, and then began to set fire to the cave where Danluohu was entrenched.

When Zhang Xi commanded other sea boats to dock, Monk Konghai saw that the entire Wandao was burning.

Some Baishuilang puts out the goods wet with water on the beach and exposed them to the sun;

Some walked around with their cut Danluohu's head.

Finally, in the sunset, Zhang Baogao built a tower with the stones he picked up on the high ground in the middle of the island, and then placed a Lotus Sutra respectfully and kowtowed to it. Then he stood up and turned around, saying with confidence to Zhang Xi, Monk Konghai and Yang Xi who were coming:

"There are more than ten large and small islands near Wandao. Today, I, Zhang Baogao, took this place as the starting point to clear out the pirates and Danluohu, rescue the people on each island, hoping to get the favor of the Duke of Wei. After that, the sea ships departed from Yangzhou stopped at Wandao for supplies. In less than two years, I, Zhang Baogao, could build a city here."

"Are you going to separate from us?" Kooka asked.

Zhang Baogao nodded, then laughed heartily: "At Nambazu moment, I revealed my ambition, which is to start from this Wandao and conquer the oceans on all sides!"

"How do you say to Silla?" Zhang Xi asked.

Zhang Baogao was confident, "I would tell Guan Shou that the Tang ships traveled to Silla and Japan, and needed a place to release goods and supplies, so they rented them to Wandao."

"Well, when your strength becomes stronger and you have Duke Wei as your support, even if you directly negotiate with the King of Silla, it will be no problem." Zhang Xi said.

It seems that this time, Zhang Baogao decided not to leave Wandao.

Two hundred Baishuilang from Fujian and eastern Zhejiang volunteered to fight side by side with him, and Zhang Xi also left three sea swan ships and fifty divine thunder guns for him, and promised to stay for a month, the ship would be carried with gunpowder, rice and cloth.

When the other ships left Wandao, Konghai saw Zhang Baogao setting fire to the weeds on the island and digging trenches and wells. The rest of Baishuilang were cutting down wood, as if he was building a camp. They really wanted to take root in this island.

Loneliness, fatigue, and surviving in the cracks of forces from various countries, and cope with the endless harassment of pirates and Danluo Hu. "Will he feel lonely?" Kooka murmured.

"For him, as long as there is a sea and a ship, he will never be lonely." Zhang Xi replied to Kōkai with his waist.

The fleet returned to Yangzhou, and soon spring was blooming and the new year came.

At Wanli Bridge, Shu Capital, Wei Gao rode a black Nanzhao horse. Amid the shouts of the crowd, he followed the singing and dancing team of "Nanzhao Fengsheng Music" (originally called Fengtianle, but Wei Gao said that this name violated the taboo and changed it to Fengsheng Music), and two thousand elite soldiers of the Fengyi army marched towards the peak of Lutouzhu.

General Zhang Fen led a team of troops and joined Wei Gao halfway.

"Zhang Fen, do you think you can see peace in the world when you go to Chang'an City this time?"

"The last general follows Wei Ling and has also followed Duke Gao Wei. He knows that as long as Wei Ling and Duke Wei are there, Zhang Fen will eventually see the world and return peace!"

"Well, this is the way to achieve eternal peace for the world." Wei Gao was very excited.

In Lingnan, the Lingqu project has been completed. Not only has the water flow recovered and cleared the Guishui and Xiangshui, but the high dams on both sides are made of fish-scale stones. Du You specially rode four large ships decorated with colorful silk, and the ship was full of prostitutes singing and dancing with strong makeup. Du You himself sat at the bow of the first ship, living in it. Both sides of the straits were cheering people of all ethnic groups and soldiers of the dig. "Each person has half a piece of color, and everyone has a share."

Outside Yangzhou City, Gao Yue led five hundred people to hit the man who was killed, riding a white snowy white, passing through the newly planted mulberry fields. It was the first month of the lunar month, and the silkworms were still far from bathing. However, the weaving households in Yangzhou had already started to transport new mud and paint the silkworm rooms in groups of three or two between the mulberry fields and silkworm rooms, and it was necessary to prevent wind and dust, that is, there were no flies or mice on the top; there were also weaving households repairing silkworm foil and silkworm nets. On the dam road in the distance, there were men carrying poplar trees one after another, preparing to make more mulberry machines (stools that cushions were used when picking mulberry), silkworm mallets and silkworm rafters, and there was a busy and lively atmosphere everywhere.

"It's lively in the first month. I'm about to wait until the silkworms come out like ants. At that time, every household has to keep their doors and stay in the silkworm room to concentrate on raising silkworms. The whole Sangjinfang is afraid that it will be a quiet scene again." After Gao Yue, Han Yu, the secretary of the Huaihai Branch Office, pointed at the horse whip.

"Han Ming Mansion, Han Ming Mansion!" At this moment, on the thatched roof of a silkworm chamber, several gangsters were working there. Among them, they were sharp-eyed and shouted when they saw Han Yu on the horse's back.

Isn’t it Wang Chengfu?

"Brother-in-law." Han Yu bowed immediately and bowed a little.

"Where can you go?" Wang Chengfu asked.
