Turbulent Times Chapter 1031: Baeknyeongdo and Daimido

"My lord, Bailing Island is here!" Du Haiwa stood at the bow of the boat and shouted happily.

Based on Du Haiwa's precise navigation, it took Wang Junlin and his party three days to finally arrive at the first island given to him by Yuan Taizuo.

From a distance, Wang Junlin also saw several boats waiting to greet him off the island, and he knew that it was Yuan Taizuo's number one general, Jin Yibei, and his party, waiting to hand over the island to him.

When Jin Yibei looked at the oncoming tall ships that were comparable to their domestic palaces, he couldn't help but gasped. He dared to swear that he had never seen such a big ship.

If Jin Yibei's own boat looks like a dolphin, then the big boats painted black look like whales!

Especially the middle and front building ship, which is tens of feet long. From Jin Yibei's point of view, this was nothing short of a miracle.

Wang Junlin and his party's hundred ships are like a mountain, pressing towards Jin Yibei! The sails have been retracted, but the sailing speed has not slowed down much. The most important thing is that Jin Yibei can't see the wooden oars. Such a large warship can never achieve such a fast speed by relying on the previous inertia.

Such a large ship collided head-on at such a fast speed, the sharp ramming horn seemed to kill them, and dozens of large crossbows and weapons he had never seen on the building were aimed at them from afar. , let Jin Yibei's heart skip a beat!

"The villain Jin Yibei pays homage to Sui Qin An Gong!" All the boats suddenly started to slow down sharply, and when they were more than 30 steps away from them, they just stopped, and there was still a little fear hidden on Jin Yibei's face. Standing in the bow of the boat, he bowed to Wang Junlin in salute.

Besides, Du Haiwa reported to Wang Junlin in a low voice: "Beizhi has just measured the latitude of this island, and it is almost the same as the latitude given by Sir Siren. This island is indeed Bailing Island, there is no mistake."

Wang Junlin nodded to Du Haiwa, and then said to Jin Yibei: "General Jin, I kept you waiting. Are there people from Koguryo on this island?"

Jin Yibei didn't dare to be negligent, and immediately replied: "This island was originally the place where our Goguryeo sent offenders. There was a prison city, and now the people inside have been transferred away by our prime minister."

"Very good, lead the way." Wang Junlin glanced at Bailing Island and said loudly.

"The villain obeys." Jin Yibei bowed to Wang Junlin again, and then directed his boats to lead the way, heading for the harbor on the other side of the island.

Wang Junlin ordered 2,000 sailors to follow his warship, and the other 2,000 sailors waited for their names.

After observing the harbor carefully, Du Haiwa reported to Wang Junlinhui: "My lord, the hydrology around this island is extremely complex, with large tide drop and many hidden reefs. If there is no ship familiar with the sea conditions here to lead the way, it is easy to hit the hidden reefs. , and apart from this port, it is difficult for ships with a weight of more than 1,000 shi to approach.”

"Yes, you are very accurate." Wang Junlin nodded. Based on his experience in leading troops for many years, this island is indeed a natural danger that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, but if there is no strong enough navy Controlling the power of the sea, the natural danger will also become a smooth road. After all, the big ships can't get close, and there are small boats, and even these distances can be swam over in the end.

Led by Jin Yibei's ship, Wang Junlin and his party of fifty warships carefully circumvented the reef and went to the other side of the island. The harbor is here, and it is not far from the harbor. It is the so-called prison city.

Seeing the simple and low "city", Wang Junlin couldn't help laughing: "This is also a city, not even a castle!"

It turns out that the so-called city that Jin Yibei mentioned was about the same size as a small township in the Sui Dynasty. Can break open!

Later on, under the leadership of Captain Guo Yi named Liu Yidong, two thousand sailors disembarked one by one, took control of the prison city, and occupied the island.

After Liu Yidong arranged the sentry post and the necessary precautions, and ordered the people below to start unloading the supplies brought in from the ship, he took two captains and ran to Wang Junlin to report: "My lord, there is no one on the island. The problem is already under our control."

This Liu Yidong was originally a regiment leader among the navy officers and soldiers who was taken to Snake Island. Lieutenant, he will take control of Bailing Island for Wang Junlin.

Wang Junlin nodded and said: "The Goguryeo people will never be willing to give us these two islands, and Yuan Taizuo is not an easy person, maybe there will be something invisible on this island Arrangement. So, after we leave, you must arrange for people to search the whole island carefully, and send out sentry posts at twelve hours a day, and be vigilant at all times. Don't be polite to any invading enemies, fight first and then talk."

Liu Yidong looked serious, and said respectfully: "Don't worry, my lord, even if the three of you in humble positions risk their lives, they will definitely protect this island for you."

Wang Junlin was very satisfied with Liu Yidong's attitude, and continued to instruct: "If there is any urgent matter, I will send the letter with a white-bellied sea eagle. As for building a city wall on this island, you will follow the previous plan and do as much as possible." Speed ​​up, it's better to get local materials, if you need something, I will arrange a business group of our own to deliver it as soon as possible."

Liu Yidong and two lieutenants took orders to go, and Wang Junlin led another two thousand sailors to leave Bailing Island and head for Dami Island.

Dami Island is more than a hundred miles away from Bailing Island, and at the speed of Wang Junlin and his party's big boat, they arrived in an hour.

At that time, Wang Junlin chose Dami Island, and found out through the charts drawn by Nie Xiaoyu that the two islands were horns of each other. If you are on an island, you have to consider the garrison on another island, otherwise it will easily lead to a state of being attacked from both sides.

In spite of the fact that Dami Island is only more than a hundred miles away from Dabaekryung Island, the latter is a foreign prison island of Goguryeo, but this Dami Island is a pirate island. In order to save his son, Yuan Taizuo found As an excuse, he sent the Goguryeo navy to wipe out a group of pirates on the island, and controlled them privately, and handed them over to Wang Junlin until today.

After taking control of Da Mi Island, Wang Junlin handed over Yuan Gai Suwen, who was locked at the bottom of his big ship, to Jin Yibei.

Yuan Gai Suwen, the most powerful powerful minister in Goguryeo history, has been imprisoned by Wang Junlin for a full year and a half.
