Chapter 469 Losing the Four Islands

Hearing this, Masayoshi Miyamoto was very helpless.

Just as he was thinking about what to do, another soldier hurried in from outside, knelt in front of Emperor Yunze, and shouted in panic: "Your Majesty is not good, the four northern islands have been violently attacked by Liang Guo's warships, and there are already two islands. I missed it, and it was taken over by Liang Guo!"

As soon as these words came out, Emperor Yunze's face suddenly turned pale.

Masayoshi Miyamoto opened his eyes wide, bit his lower lip slightly, and said, "Sure enough, Liang Guo's purpose is to seize the four northern islands. Go and check to see if the Liang army around Kyushu Island has retreated!"

The little soldier ran out and came back to report after a while: "The front line reported that Liang Guo's warship suddenly turned around and went straight to the four northern islands."

Hearing this, Emperor Yunze fainted.

The four northern islands can no longer be kept!

……

Li Shilang led Li Jun and others to occupy the East Island and West Island, and then turned the gun positions on the island to aim at the South Island and North Island.

They now have an absolute advantage, and the warships led by Wu Tian have also been boarded.

Now there are 20 Liang troops in the four northern islands, while there are only [-] defenders left in the South Island and North Island, and there are only a hundred red cannons.

This kind of firepower has no way to stop Liang Guo's attack.

Under the cover of artillery, Liang Jun forcibly landed on the South Island and North Island, and after a night of fighting, both islands were captured.

So far, all the four northern islands have been captured by Liang Guo.

These four islands are not far from the core area of ​​the Wa Kingdom, and they can be reached in an hour from here.

In addition, these four islands are not far from Liao Ning City. If they occupy here and echo with Liao Ning City, they can block the Tsarist Kingdom from sending troops to the sea at any time.

Wu Tian was very satisfied, patted Li Shilang on the shoulder and said: "Li Aiqing, you have made a great contribution this time, not only gave me a bad breath, but also let me take such a precious place, so that I can monitor the Czarist Kingdom and the Wa Kingdom on the spot .It’s just that although we have seized this place now, how to protect it is still a problem. I wonder if you have any good strategies?”

Li Shilang said: "To protect the islands, the most important thing is artillery, warships and support. We can establish permanent military deployments on these four islands, set up howitzers, red cannons, and in addition, we need to set up a new battleship team here. , patrol here at any time. Also, that is where to build an observation tower in Liao Ning City. If the Wa Kingdom or other countries try to seize the four northern islands, the four northern islands will set off smoke in the morning and raise fire at night. In this way, the observation tower in Liao Ning City can You can see that the navy stationed in Koryo at that time went north to support the four northern islands. In this way, we can protect the four northern islands under the control of Liang Guo."

Hearing this, Wu Tian nodded in satisfaction, and said with a smile: "Li Aiqing, you are not only an expert in water warfare, but also an expert in guarding islands. Just follow your plan. It's just these four islands, whoever we send Is it better to stay here and guard?"

Li Shilang smiled and said: "The east island is guarded by Zhang Shun, the west island is guarded by Li Jun, the south island is guarded by Ruan Xiaoer and Ruan Xiaowu, and the north island is guarded by Ruan Xiaoqi. The four of them are familiar with water, and They all followed the minister to participate in the training of new warships, and now they are all on their own. There are [-] troops stationed on each island. In addition to stationing the islands, these [-] troops also need to develop agriculture and fisheries. Your Majesty can transplant super rice to these four islands In fact, this will save the trouble of transporting food. At the same time, the development of fishery can not only increase the income of the islands, reduce Liang’s finances, but also open up maritime trade routes to Southeast Asia.”

Wu Tian was very satisfied, and gave orders to Li Jun and the others on the spot.

Soon the four northern islands resumed their previous living conditions, and the remaining residents on the islands surrendered to Liang Guo and became Liang Guo's citizens.

Seeing that the four northern islands had returned to normal, Wu Tian set off to leave.

Before leaving, he deliberately found all the generals stationed on the island, and repeatedly told him: "These four northern islands are really important to us. You must be careful when stationing here, and you must not be careless. If there is anything Things must be done according to Li Shilang's orders."

"Yes!"

The generals stationed on the island all bowed their hands to Wu Tian and shouted.

Only then did Wu Tian and Li Shilang board the battleship and return to Liang Guo.

The battleship went south and went straight to the Koryo region.

When Gongsun Sheng learned that Wutian was coming, he quickly led the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs in the Koryo region to meet Wutian.

"The minister, Gongsun Sheng, has seen His Majesty."

Gongsun Sheng knelt down and was stopped by Wu Tian.

"Brother Gongsun, I have a series of tasks for you this time."

Wu Tian told Gongsun Sheng the matter of occupying the four northern islands and Li Shilang's suggestion, and said at the end: "In addition to guarding the Koryo area, you also have one more thing to do, and that is to provide supplies for the patrolling sea battleship team, and When necessary, lead the army to support the four northern islands with the battleship team in the sea."

Gongsun Sheng nodded, cupped his hands towards Wutian and said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will definitely not disappoint you, Your Majesty."

Only then did Wu Tian nod in satisfaction, and returned to Liangcheng from the Koryo region.

The holy maiden Wutian returned to Liangcheng. When she heard that Wutian was back, she hurried out of the city to greet her.

"Your Majesty's triumphant return is the honor of our Kingdom of Liang, and the honor of the people of the Kingdom of Liang. From then on, anyone who dares to disrespect our Kingdom of Liang and try to challenge our Kingdom of Liang will be punished by the Wa Kingdom!"

The saint said excitedly.

Wu Tian held the hand of the saint, and said with a smile: "This time, it's Li Shilang's scheme, otherwise I wouldn't be able to come back so soon."

The saint walked towards Li Shilang and saluted him.

Li Shilang hurriedly dodged, cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, I dare not accept your etiquette."

The saint smiled, and said, "You are welcome, Governor Li. I just want to thank you for speaking out for my children, and also for the people of Liang Kingdom."

Li Shilang said: "It is my duty to serve the Liang Kingdom, and I dare not take credit for it. It's just that although we have won the Wa Kingdom now, if we want to maintain this advantage, we must quickly establish a second coastal battle fleet."

These words reminded Wu Tian.

Wu Tian looked around, but Tang Long was not there.

"Where is Brother Tang Long?"

Hu Sanniang went up to a thousand at this time, cupped her hands towards Wutian and said, "Your Majesty, Brother Tang Long went to the Northwest a few days ago, saying that he was looking for important iron ore."

Wu Tian frowned slightly, and said: "Then he went alone, or what?"

Hu Sanniang said: "I saw that he went with a team of people, I guess he should come back these days."

Wu Tian nodded and entered Liangcheng.

More than ten days passed in a blink of an eye, Wu Tian waited in the palace but Tang Long didn't come back, he was very upset.

Since Wa lost the four northern islands, it has been secretly strengthening the manufacture of warships, preparing to take back the lost islands.

And they also spent a lot of money to invite Englishmen to help, and the progress was very fast.

This made Wu Tian even more worried. If the four northern islands that were finally occupied were taken back so easily, wouldn't it be a waste of time?

Just as he was thinking, Dai Zong came in.

His injuries have healed, and it is a pity that he did not follow Wu Tian to conquer the Wa Kingdom.
