Disguised as a merchant selling medicinal herbs
All the way south.
They just set off.
There are also fast boats going out to sea from Liangshan.
Go and inform the water village located on the coast of Dengzhou.
Two days later,
Ruan Xiao Wu and Ruan Xiao Qi led ten ships of 1,000 shi each, along with two thousand naval soldiers.
Heading south along the coast,
To reach the Song Dynasty, one must take the Liangzhe Road.
The ultimate destination is Minnesota.
Although they had been training in the water village for more than two months,
During this time,
They also occasionally go out to sea to sail.
Finally, the two Ruan brothers, who had grown up in the river, were able to...
I'm gradually getting used to sailing at sea!
"Damn, sailing at sea is definitely more comfortable than on rivers,"
Ruan Xiaoqi stood at the bow of the boat.
Looking around at the boundless sea,
I felt a sense of comfort in my heart.
"yes,"
Ruan Xiaowu nodded.
“We used to swim in the lake,”
"They thought the whole world was only this big,"
"Once we reached Dengzhou, we went out to sea,"
"Only now do I realize that there is such a vast world!"
"I heard that Brother Zhao is going to Jiangnan this time,"
Ruan Xiaoqi laughed,
"We need to replenish our Liangshan navy with more warships."
"That should be for sure,"
Ruan Xiaowu also said,
"Our Liangshan naval fleet originally didn't have many warships,"
"With this Dengzhou water fortress,"
"Another half of the warships were sent to Dengzhou."
"It is indeed time to replenish the warships."
Fifth Brother,
Ruan Xiaoqi suddenly moved closer to Ruan Xiaowu.
He said with a mysterious expression,
“I heard from the original Dengzhou soldiers in the water fortress that…”
“If you go out to sea from our water village and head north, you will reach the territory of the Liao people.”
"If you go east, you can go to Goryeo."
"After Korea, there's Japan..."
"What, are you itching to try it?"
"Ruan Xiaowu said jokingly."
"Um,"
Ruan Xiaoqi nodded.
"I didn't think much of it before,"
"But now that we've gotten used to running at sea,"
"On the contrary, I want to go and see the world."
"Fifth Brother, do you think Brother Zhao will agree?"
"If you ask me, definitely,"
Ruan Xiaowu laughed,
"If Brother Zhao didn't have ambitions to roam the world,"
"After capturing this Dengzhou water fortress,"
"Just burn it all."
"But he insisted on leaving the village behind,"
"They even made the two of us train the naval forces day and night,"
"Isn't that goal hope?"
"Can the two of us train a Liangshan navy capable of sailing the seas in the future?"
"As long as Brother Zhao agrees, that's fine."
Ruan Xiaoqi couldn't help but dream about it.
"I wonder what the Liao, Goryeo and Japan across the sea are like?"
What else could it be like?
Ruan Xiaowu sneered.
"In the end, we all have one head, two hands, and two legs!"
"But I remember hearing Brother Zhao say before,"
Ruan Xiaoqi asked in confusion,
"Those Japanese are short and ugly, they don't even look human."
"Perhaps Japan is a bit special?"
Ruan Xiaowu guessed,
"Alright, don't worry about this."
"Until we can train a navy capable of sailing far and wide,"
"Don't even mention Brother Zhao, I wouldn't let you do anything reckless."
"Fifth Brother, don't worry,"
Ruan Xiaoqi laughed heartily.
"I'm not stupid, I naturally understand the difficulties of going to sea and sailing far away."
"When I get back this time, I will put even more effort into training these soldiers,"
"It might be too late next year,"
"But I must go out to sea the year after next to see the scenery of the open ocean."
.....
the other side,
Zhao Yuan, along with a group of leaders and personal guards,
There are also those disguised as caravans.
After more than a month of traveling,
They had already arrived in Zhejiang and Jiangsu.
this day,
The people were walking on the road,
In the distance, a vast mountain range stretched out before them.
Above the mountainside, clouds and mist swirled in layers.
The mountain was covered with trees.
Although it had already turned completely yellow by then,
But it seems that,
It also has its own unique beauty...
Chapter 1178 Siming Mountain
"Brother, I've already asked,"
Zhang Shun came over and said.
"This place is called Siming Mountain, and the locals like to call it Little Lushan."
This time, Zhao Yuan went south.
Besides Ruan Xiao'er, the other leaders accompanying them were...
The rest are not from Shandong.
They don't have a heavy Shandong accent when they speak.
The reason for doing this is
This was to avoid revealing their identities.
Accompanying him were a group of Shandong guards.
Jiao Ting had also warned them.
Let them be alright.
Don't do it in front of outsiders.
Speak freely.
The group walked along the mountain path.
It took us almost half a day to walk around.
The mountains blocking the way suddenly disappeared.
When the view suddenly opened up, everything became clear.
Vast terraced fields came into view.
Although the weather had already turned to autumn at this time
But the south is clearly much warmer than the north.
In that field
They are still planted with rice seedlings.
I don't know what it is.
"Brother, be careful when you get here,"
Zhang Shun whispered to Zhao Yuan.
