Farmer Fubo is open for business

Chapter 233 Jurchen Invasion

There were burning houses, crazy soldiers, and people covered in blood and dying in those scenes.

A child of several years old was lying on the ground, his head held in a woman's arms, but her small body was pinned to the ground by a spear.

Chang'an was shocked and his mind quickly returned to his senses.

At this time, the large fishing boats began to return, leaving behind several burning boats and twenty or thirty corpses.

Chang'an seemed to see several big fish under the sea, heading towards the corpses.

Lu Jingzhou played with Zhao Yuan's firearm along the way, but did not ask where it came from.

After returning to the town, Chang An and others never went out to sea with fishing boats. They only occasionally went to pry some barnacles and oysters with Hai Mei.

Sometimes I also fish out some kelp and seaweed, and the soup tastes very good.

Returning to Yuyang County from the bay, Lu Jingzhou received a report that the Jurchens in Jianzhou had begun to rebel, and they captured several guard posts in succession and took the guard city as their own.

There are also firearms manufacturing workshops in some guard cities. Once used by Jurchens, the consequences will be disastrous.

So Lu Jingzhou immediately drew up a memorial and asked the post office to travel thousands of miles to the capital.

When the emperor received the memorial, he was immediately furious and immediately asked the Northern Xinjiang general to mobilize troops to encircle and suppress Jianzhou Jurchens.

But the northern border is vast. Once the imperial army arrives, the Jurchen tribes will hide in the woods. There is nothing they can do.

The emperor was so angry that he sent a letter to the King of Korea, asking him to send troops to reinforce the encirclement and suppression.

The newly enthroned King of Korea ignored it at first, but after being angrily reprimanded by the emperor, he had no choice but to send 10,000 people to deal with it.

But before leaving, the King of Goryeo warned the general leading the team to preserve his strength and not have to sacrifice his life for the Zhou Dynasty.

However, after many twists and turns, the Koreans turned to the Jurchen Khan and became the Jurchens' help.

In this way, in just half a year, the Jurchen tribe gathered a team of 100,000 people, divided into nine groups, and relying on sneak attacks and quick battles, they first occupied Fushun, and then successively captured Shenyang and Liaoyang.

Since then, the entire Liaodong line has been lost, with only Guangning still standing strong.

As long as Guangning falls, the Jurchens will attack Shanhaiguan directly.

Commander Tao Yuan's hair turned gray with anxiety. He knew that his more than 10,000 people could not defeat more than 100,000 enemy invaders. He wanted to send his wife and children back to the pass, but he couldn't do it.

Because there is no guarantee that he will meet Jurchens on the road, which will harm his wife, children and family.

At this moment, Chang'an also learned about some things in Northern Xinjiang in Yuyang County, and hurriedly asked Song Sanshun: "Uncle, how many firearms have we made?"

"Fifty." Song Sanshun said, "It's just that the fire bombs are more troublesome to make, otherwise we could make more."

Those bullets were very dangerous to make and would explode if you were not careful. Song Sanshun asked the craftsmen to be extra careful to avoid accidental injuries.

Chang'an: "I want to give fifty firearms and fire bombs to dad. The war there is tight. If we can't hold the guardhouse, our whole family will probably have to sit together."

Song Sanshun frowned: "Since there is a war outside the customs, how can you, a girl, go back alone? How about I go and deliver it, and you can just stay at home and take care of the workshop."

"No!" Changan refused.

If my uncle had an accident on the road, how should I explain it to my aunt and cousins?

Song Sanshun glared: "Why not? Song Erxiao is my eldest brother. He is in trouble now. As his biological brother, how can I let you, a little girl, get involved in danger?"

Chang'an still insisted: "I must go."

Song Sanshun was very angry when he saw that his little niece was stubborn, slammed the door and left.

He went to see his brother-in-law Wu Zhonglou and asked him about the war in Northern Xinjiang.

Wu Zhonglou was the county magistrate and had access to the imperial court's newspapers, so he knew a little about northern Xinjiang.

"Lu Jingzhou went to Shanhaiguan recently. It is estimated that the Jurchens are about to attack there. Brother-in-law, if you go in now, what if you meet those people?"

Wu Zhonglou disapproved of his brother-in-law going outside the pass at this time. The Jurchen cavalry was wandering around like ghosts. Once they encountered a caravan or pedestrians, no one could escape.

"I want to send a batch of weapons to my brother. His life and fortune are at stake, so I have to go."

After saying this, Song Sanshun said goodbye and left. He went home to explain some things to his wife, and then started preparing the things to enter the customs.

Before dawn the next day, while his little niece didn't get up, he quietly went out and led a group of people to Shanhaiguan.

After dawn, he suddenly saw a slender masked young man in the team.

Song Sanshun was furious and said angrily: "Why are you in the team too?"

It was Chang An who was dressing up as a young man. She blinked and said, "I don't trust you to leave alone."

Song Sanshun was speechless.

He glanced at the team he organized and finally sighed: "Let's go and get on the carriage. We must go faster."

"Okay." Chang'an didn't argue with his uncle and got into the carriage honestly.

The carriage contained grain, grass and water, and she could only rest in the hay pile.

There were more than twenty people in the team and three carriages. Song Sanshun hired fifteen bodyguards to escort them, and the rest were his own servants.

In addition, he carried double the number of horses, making it easier to replace them on the way.

The convoy traveled quickly, but fortunately did not encounter any Jurchens. Ten days later, it finally arrived in front of the Beishan Guards Station.

There were many soldiers at the gate of the guard city, checking people entering the city one by one.

Because the Jurchen was very cunning, he often attacked the city by surprise.

When Chang'an was found, Shiwu was stunned: "Miss Chang'an? Why are you back?"

Chang'an smiled: "I'm here to send you new weapons."

"What new weapon?" The young soldier was puzzled.

Chang'an: "You will know when the time comes. Let us enter the city quickly."

"Oh." The young soldier scratched his head and moved his horse away.

The motorcade filed in and finally stopped at the gate of the official office.

"Dad! I'm back!" Chang'an jumped off the carriage and ran into the government office with a chicken coop on his head.

As soon as he entered the office room, he saw his father and several people sitting together and talking.

The man sitting next to Dad looks like Lu Jingzhou.

Well, there is another Zhao Yuan.

Changan was shocked: "Why are you here too?"

She originally thought that Zhao Yuan was taken to Shanhaiguan by Lu Jingzhou, but she didn't expect that they were all here.

"Chang'an? Why are you back?" Song Erxiao frowned and stood up from his seat.

Chang'an ignored the strange looks from everyone, ran forward and grabbed his father and said, "Come out quickly and take a look at the firearms I brought you."

"What kind of firearm?" Song Erxiao was pulled out by his daughter.

Lu Jingzhou raised his eyebrows when he heard this. He remembered the handy firearms in the hands of Zhao Yuan and Song Sanshun, so he stood up and followed them out.

Sure enough, Changan brought fifty black firearms and more than twenty boxes of ammunition.

"This is made based on the firecracker in your hand. I have tried them all and nothing has failed."

Chang'an explained to his father: "We have these firearms. We can form a firearms team. Once the Jurchens invade, let them have a taste of the new firearms!"

Song Erxiao picked up a handful and looked at it, and was immediately pleasantly surprised: "This is so good! I will call the guards here now!" (End of Chapter)
