    Although there are tides every day, there is something evil about Luermen.  High tides don't happen every day in this place, so Yunhao waited helplessly outside Luermen.  It was extremely quiet inside Luermen, and occasionally two boats poked their heads out.  As soon as he saw the shadow of the two giant ships, he immediately retreated.

    The bright moon was hanging high in the sky, and the swells were beating against the side of the Zhenhai.  The tide is coming, a big one.  The swell was more than a foot high, and the broken waves could even splash onto the deck.  This was an astronomical tide. The old fisherman who was on the boat said that he had never seen such a tide in his whole life.

    The billowing black smoke and the roar of machinery were deafening along with the sound of the tide, and the huge hull of the Zhenhai began to move forward.  Behind him, followed the equally huge Dinghai.  The two warships, like two giant beasts from the wild, rushed into the rocky Luermen along the majestic tide.

    Yunhao¡¯s heart was in his throat, he was going to experience a big battle today.  Perhaps, only the battle in Shuofang City can be compared with it.  After risking their lives to survive, their four thousand soldiers faced 30,000 extremely vicious pirates.

    Having prepared for the worst, Yunhao even prepared a barrel of gunpowder and placed it beside him.  The tens of thousands of innocent souls in Quanzhou City kept Yunhao awake at night. As soon as he closed his eyes, he seemed to be able to see the scenes of pirates committing violence.  Rows of heads, naked female corpses.  The child whose stomach was broken open, the old man who was burned to cokes!  The evil deeds committed by pirates are simply too numerous to describe.

    Even though he had made all the plans, Yunhao was still shocked by the scene when he rushed into Luermen.  There were only a dozen small boats swaying with the waves in the harbor, and there seemed to be many people on the shore.  But there was no campfire!  Yunhao hesitated for a long time before letting Cheng Chumo take the marines onto the boat to check it out.

    Cheng Chumo was extremely nervous. There were only a hundred people in the three small boats.  There are tens of thousands of pirates on the opposite side, when approaching the pirate ship.  The match lit the Molotov cocktail and threw it hard.  After a while, the raging fire engulfed the ships.  Surprisingly, there was no one on board.

    By the light of the fire and moonlight, the boat cautiously rushed to the beach.  The scene above made Cheng Chumo's eyes widen.

    "Run away?" Yunhao never imagined that this would be the result.  He was trapped in Luermen for ten days, but Zhang Zhongjian had escaped under the cover of night ten days ago.

    "They escaped! The boats we saw all came back after we broke them up. When they came back, Zhang Zhongjian had already run away." Cheng Chumo replied with difficulty.

    The scene in front of me has only been seen in concentration camps in movies.  There were emaciated people and stinking corpses everywhere.  Every corpse was covered with flies, and swarms of flies would rise into the sky when people approached.  The sound was like a bomber taking off.

    Tens of thousands of people were captured by Zhang Zhongjian from Quanzhou just to build this water stronghold.  Months of sleepless work had drained all their energy.  Because of the hot weather, both men and women were topless, with only a piece of cloth covering their crotches.  You can clearly see their exposed ribs and unhealed wounds.  Some people's wounds were inflamed, with round maggots crawling on them.  Hell on earth is nothing but this!

    What a Zhang Zhongjian, he ran away and left behind tens of thousands of people to hold him back.  I really want to leave these tens of thousands of people and chase Zhang Zhongjian, but I can't do it!  The physical condition of these is very poor, and the weather in the south is hot.  Once a plague occurs, it is difficult to say how many people will survive in the end.

    "Don't give them so much food. If they are hungry for so long, they will die if they eat too much. Put the pot up and make porridge! Put more water and less rice, and get more pickles." Yunhao angrily kicked Yuchi who was distributing the food.  Bao Lin kicked her. This tough guy had just stuffed a pie into a little girl's face.  After being hungry for so long, I will definitely die from eating this big cake.

    The dog is working hard to make porridge. Uncle said that if it can support a person to death, it can support a person to death.  A lot of water was added to the rice porridge, and I stirred it with a stick.  Although the porridge is thin, it needs to be fragrant.  The Yun family never does things carelessly.

    A coconut shell was stretched out in front of Gouzi. Behind the bamboo pole-like arms was a childish face, as dirty as a little cat.  His hair was as messy as a chicken coop.  The dog even saw some unknown little creatures crawling around in the hair.  Everyone in the Yun family likes to be clean, so the dog didn't feel the slightest discomfort when looking at this dirty guy.  He personally scooped a spoonful of rice porridge and poured it into the coconut shell. The arrogant Zhang Zhongjian didn't even leave an earthenware bowl for them.  When they eat, they use coconut shells.

    "Thank you!" He said it in southern Fujian, but the dog could barely understand it.  He smiled and said nothing, and casually broke off a small piece of pancake and gave it to the child.  The people Zhang Zhongjian attracted were all young and strong, and such young children were really unusual.

    &nThis is the first time I come to Guangzhou, whether it is in my past life or this life.  The tall blue brick city wall stands on the bank of the Pearl River, and it is so impressive that Yun Hao has only experienced it in Chang'an and Luoyang.  The land in the Pearl River Delta is fertile and very suitable for farming.  As early as the Qin and Han Dynasties, Guangzhou became a part of China.  There are two crops of rice here, so Guangzhou people don¡¯t have to worry about hunger.  The rise of maritime trade made Guangzhou rich.

    During the wars at the end of the Sui Dynasty, this place did not suffer from the military disasters in the north.  Guangzhou under Feng Ang's rule even surpassed Chang'an in terms of prosperity.

    But looking at the population, we can see that after ten years of recuperation, Luoyang still cannot recover from the war.  There are only a few residential buildings outside the city wall, and there is no scene like Guangzhou.  There are also densely packed residential buildings outside the city wall, as if it is another city.  There are many masts in the port, and people on the pier are rubbing shoulders with each other.  The porters worked hard to carry the goods off the ship, while on the other side they were carrying goods to the ship.

    ¡° Unloading and loading ships at the same time shows how busy Guangzhou¡¯s shipping industry is.  Feng An, this bitch, kept talking about making a fortune, and even told Li Er that Guangzhou's taxes could not make ends meet.  He actually had the nerve to ask Li Er for help. If Li Er saw the scene in front of him, he would probably be furious.

    From the moment Zhenyuan Hao swayed his huge body into the Pearl River Estuary, there were flying horses running towards Guangzhou City.  Feng An came out curiously to take a look. He heard Tan Ma say a few days ago that the imperial court sent two huge ships.  There is no sail and black smoke is emitting, but the speed is as fast as a galloping horse.  Feng Ang believed that Tan Ma was crazy and ordered him to be dragged down and beaten to death with a casual order.  Now it seems that the scout died unjustly.

    "But Feng An didn't want to correct himself. He just died as a scout."  When did the Feng family have such a bad habit of apologizing?

    Standing on a small boat was a seventh-rank official wearing a green robe who looked like a mantis. Who knew what he was shouting?  Damn Cantonese sounded like another damn language to Yunhao.  The boat is very small, just an ordinary fishing boat.  When the Zhenhai passed by, it carefully avoided the fishing boats.  However, the Pearl River is only so wide, and the boat was still engulfed by the waves set off by the Zhenhai.

    The seventh-grade officer kept flopping in the water, still shouting.  Yunhao felt that he seemed to be shouting for help!

    Can't stop eating on the dock, at this time, the stranded jokes.

    Wang Zhe was brought ashore by boat, and Yunhao clearly saw Feng An on the dock through the telescope.  Yunhao couldn't do anything to let himself board the boat to visit him.

    Mrs. Xian¡¯s noble bloodline has deteriorated and she has turned into a profit-seeking villain with no shame.  It had been more than three months since Quanzhou City fell, but Feng Ang was able to stand still and watch Zhang Zhongjian slaughter wantonly in Quanzhou City.  Quanzhou is not very close to Guangzhou, but you should be able to crawl there in three months!  Looking at Feng Ang now, he has no intention of going to Quanzhou at all.  He actually had the nerve to be on the dock, waving to himself with a smile.

    Yunhao¡¯s behavior is very rude and can be said to be contempt for Feng Ang.  But Feng Ang immediately agreed to Wang Zhe's invitation on behalf of Yunhao, because he really wanted to see what this huge ship was.  You can sail so fast without sails!

    The Duke of Yue has a great reputation, but he really can't find a ship that can compete with the Zhenhai.  In fact, looking at Datang, only Dinghai can compare with Zhenhai.

    Feng Ang found the largest ship in Guangzhou, and then sailed toward the Zhenhai in a majestic manner.  But when they got aboard the Zhenhai, Feng Ang was a little discouraged.  Because the largest ship in Guangzhou has a deck that is seven or eight feet shorter than the Zhenhai.  The dignified Duke of Yue has to climb a rope ladder to go up.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
