Chapter 179
By the time the water line dissipated, Bian Bufu's limbs were covered in blood.
Lying on the deck, his eyes were ashen and lifeless.
Mrs. Dongming Shan Meixian looked at this scene and felt happy. The great rapist who had been hated for nearly twenty years finally got his retribution!
"Bian Bufu's cultivation has been abolished. You will be the ones to deal with him next!" Yue Zhuoqun thought for a while and said.
"Thank you, General Yue!" Shan Meixian was delighted and ordered her men to take Bian Bufu into the cabin for custody, then bowed and saluted:
"Please come into the cabin, General Yue, and let Meixian prepare some wine to express my gratitude."
Yue Zhuoqun smiled and nodded: "Okay."
...
Inside the cabin, fine wine and delicacies were quickly prepared. Shan Meixian and Shan Wanjing, mother and daughter, changed their clothes and attended the event in their best attire.
Shang Gong also came out to accompany them.
As they toasted and exchanged cups, everyone was in high spirits and their relationship became closer.
"Thanks to General Yue for helping us today, otherwise our Dongming Sect would be bullied by the evil thieves over there again." After three rounds of drinking, Shan Meixian's cheeks flushed, and her tone was full of gratitude: "How could General Yue, as the leader of an army, appear alone at the mouth of the Yangtze River?"
"Excuse me, three of you. This trip is for the Dongming Sect?"
Shan Wanjing was very smart and immediately understood what he meant. A gleam of light flashed in her eyes: "General Yue wants to buy weapons from our Dongming Sect?"
Wagan occupied Xingyang and stabilized its position. Next, it must recruit troops and horses, and weapons have become the top priority.
"Wanjing is really smart, she understands it at once!" Yue Zhuoqun nodded to her in appreciation.
Shan Wanjing's mouth curled up, feeling quite proud.
As the little princess of the Dongming Sect, she has been in contact with various forces in the past two years, managing the business of the sect in an orderly manner, and is quite arrogant.
She had seen many talented people in the world, but only a few caught her eye. The only one she looked up to was Li Shimin.
If it was another man praising her, she would not be moved at all, and she might even think that he was trying to curry favor with her.
But Yue Zhuoqun was different, with a respected status. Since he appeared on the stage, he had shown his peerless martial arts, and his demeanor was even more compelling, overshadowing Li Shimin.
It was natural that she was very happy to receive the praise from Yue Zhuoqun.
"If Wan Jing's guess is correct, the next step for Wagang is to attack Xingluo Cang in Gong County. By then, there will be enough food and grass, and only weapons and horses will be left, so this is not difficult to guess."
"But you still missed one thing. In addition to purchasing weapons, I will also ask you to build some warships!"
As soon as this was said, even Shan Meixian and Shang Gong could not help but exclaim: "General Yue is really strategically advanced and has arranged naval equipment early. This alone is much better than Du Fuwei and Dou Jiande."
Wagang occupies the Grand Canal and the Yellow River, and Du Fuwei's power covers the Yangtze River and the Grand Canal. Training the navy will be of great help to expand power in the future.
Yue Zhuoqun started planning early, but Du Fuwei still focused on one city and one place, and even the Jianghuai Army under his command did not have strict military discipline.
"Building ships is something that our Dongming Sect is good at. We have hundreds of ships under supervision. Although not as large as the Piaoxiang, they are enough for inland water battles. As many as General Yue needs, we can trade directly without rebuilding."
With the friendship of solving the problem of Bian Bufu, she did not hesitate to trade with Yue Zhuoqun and nodded readily.
"Not enough, I not only want inland river ships, but also sea warships that can gallop on the sea."
"Sea warships?" The three people were shocked and their eyes widened.
I thought Yue Zhuoqun would take one step and see two steps, but I didn't expect that he would take one step and see the next five or six steps.
As expected of a military leader, this layout is too advanced!
Shan Wanjing smiled bitterly: "General Yue, you don't know that the sea is very rough and far more dangerous than rivers. There has never been a large-scale sea battle before, and no one knows how to build a sea warship.
Our Piaoxiang can overcome the waves, but it is okay for a short time. If we set sail to fight, I'm afraid it will not meet the requirements."
"Don't worry about this. I have the blueprints for building sea ships here. You can build them according to them." Yue Zhuoqun smiled and took out a stack of blueprints from his arms.
The blueprints were drawn on the construction drawings of Zheng He's treasure ship, and he also added a lot of shipbuilding ideas from later generations. They were prepared early on the way to find the Dongming Sect.
Shan Wanjing took it and looked through it with doubt.
To be honest, I didn't have much hope in my heart.
Shipbuilding and martial arts are two completely different subjects. Yue Zhuoqun's martial arts are strong, but it doesn't mean he knows how to build ships, let alone sea warships.
However, the moment her eyes fell on the blueprint, her mind was attracted, her red lips opened wide, and she exclaimed:
"What a sophisticated shipbuilding technology!"
The shipbuilding technology of the Dongming School is already the best in the world.
The craftsmanship on paper is many years ahead of the Dongming School.
Not to mention learning all of it, absorbing one tenth of it for their own use can greatly improve their shipbuilding level.
After half a quarter of an hour, Shan Wanjing and the other two finally looked away from the blueprint with difficulty, and said excitedly: "This blueprint can be called a treasure book of shipbuilding. How outstanding a person must have been to come up with it! May I ask, General Yue, who drew this picture?"
"It's me!" Yue Zhuoqun said without blushing.
"This... General Yue's ability is outstanding, which is really admirable." The three looked at Yue Zhuoqun with respect and gratitude, and a layer of admiration.
Lu Miaozi, the world's number one craftsman, can be called the world's number one all-rounder, proficient in martial arts, medicine, military tactics, astronomy, machinery, construction, etc.
In their opinion, Yue Zhuoqun's martial arts, military tactics, and construction are no worse than Lu Miaozi.
No, it is very likely that he has surpassed him!
"These drawings are extremely valuable, so you're just giving them to us?"
"Since I've chosen to cooperate with you, I should have nothing to hold back. Of course, I also have a request, that the ships you build cannot be sold to other forces." Yue Zhuoqun said, he didn't want his things to be used to aid the enemy.
"Of course!"
Shan Wanjing admired Yue Zhuoqun in her heart, and her impression of Yue Zhuoqun was raised to the extreme. She smiled and said, "Since General Yue is trustworthy, we can't just show our appreciation. In this way, we will provide the warships built by the Dongming Sect to Wagang for free in the future, and the weapons will be sold at the original price."
It seems that the Dongming Sect is doing a loss-making business, but as long as the craftsmanship in the atlas is slightly improved on ordinary ships, it can still make a lot of money.
And this shipbuilding technology, after they learn it, can be passed down.
"Then let's make an agreement like this!" Yue Zhuoqun smiled, picked up the wine glass, and made a cooperation agreement.
After the banquet, he stayed on the Piaoxiang for a few days to discuss the details of the cooperation.
Five days later, Shan Meixian ordered the Piaoxiang to dock at a pier and disembarked to see Yue Zhuoqun off.
"By the way, a reminder. Your weapons trading account book is a hidden danger. Sooner or later, it will be noticed by various forces. It is best to keep it properly."
