Chapter 500
In Xiapi City, Xuzhou, Cheng Pu and Han Dang led their team northward.
They bypassed Jingzhou and headed north from Yangzhou. As soon as they entered Xuzhou, they were surrounded by a group of soldiers.
After some explanation, they learned that Xuzhou had been taken by Tang Hai.
Such a discovery made the two look at each other in bewilderment.
Xuzhou was so far away from Tang Hai, how could it be captured so quickly?
How long did it take for the anti-Dong Zhuo coalition to collapse?
Tang Hai was too fast.
Seeing that the soldiers obviously had Xuzhou local accents, Cheng Pu and Han Dang were filled with emotion.
Tang Hai could really change people's appearance.
He could turn ordinary people into soldiers with the highest combat power in the shortest time.
Look at the expressions on the faces of these soldiers in front of them. If the two of them had any unusual movements with their soldiers.
There was no doubt that these Xuzhou soldiers would fight them to the death.
Magical Tang Hai.
The two of them were filled with emotion.
The team, led by the soldiers of Xuzhou, headed towards Xiapi.
Jia Xu heard the news and went out to greet them. After seeing the two outside the city, he asked them some questions.
Only then did he learn that Sun Jian was killed by Liu Biao's subordinates.
"Don't worry." Jia Xu comforted the two.
"Our lord will definitely avenge Sun Taishou."
"We will definitely not let the thieves get away with it!"
The firm voice of Jia Xu made Cheng Pu and Han Dang feel a little better.
After a little thought, Jia Xu said, "So, let the Changsha soldiers you lead settle down in Xuzhou first."
"I will take you two back to Tanghai by sea quickly and report this to the lord."
Cheng Pu and Han Dang looked at each other and knelt down immediately, "Thank you, Lord Xuzhou Mu!"
"No, no, no!" Jia Xu leaned over to help the two.
"I'm not the governor of Xuzhou."
"I'm just temporarily managing Xuzhou for my lord."
"Let's go now."
Jia Xu gave a brief explanation and took the two men to Xuzhou Wharf.
Along the way, the three were speechless.
But Jia Xu's mind was full of thoughts.
...
Tanghai City.
Liu Yu issued an order.
The people who came to Tanghai from Yangzhou to work, mainly men, returned to Yangzhou one after another, and with the support of Tanghai, they built their hometown in Yangzhou.
The return tide started after Liu Yu issued various orders.
The officials of the Tanghai government took the craftsmen and various materials and followed the people of Yangzhou back by boat.
The people of Yangzhou were very excited.
Although they lived very well in Tanghai, better than ever before.
But every Han Chinese has the word hometown in their hearts.
They miss their homeland all the time.
The Tanghai government was able to go to Yangzhou with them to build their hometown, which made the people of Yangzhou jump with joy.
The moment they got on the boat, all the people of Yangzhou looked at the vast sea, wishing they could grow two wings on their backs and fly back to Yangzhou quickly.
One after another, huge ships set off and headed for Yangzhou.
…
"My lord, are you looking for me?" Cao Hong entered the hall of the official temple and saluted respectfully.
"Zi Lian, sit down." Liu Yu, who was sitting on the main seat, greeted him.
"Two tasks."
He raised two fingers and said concisely.
Cao Hong's face straightened and he listened attentively.
"First, find someone." Liu Yu handed over a piece of paper.
Cao Hong looked down and saw a row of names written on it.
Gan Ning, Zhou Tai, Xu Sheng, Jiang Qin, Chen Wu.
Behind each name, there is a detailed introduction.
Including the place of origin and the place where they may have been active recently, it is very detailed.
Cao Hong was full of doubts. How did the Lord know these people?
Logically, if the Anbu had found out about these people's reputation, shouldn't they have found them long ago?
Just invite them to Tanghai directly.
Even if they have to be tied up, they can be brought here.
But now he needs to go and find them, and the activity location is still in a rough range.
Did the Lord know all this?
Cao Hong's face changed.
"Second." Liu Yu's voice sounded, pulling Cao Hong back from his thoughts.
"Activate the hidden forces of the Shangbu in Bingzhou."
"While promoting Tanghai, send some civilians over to infiltrate from all sides."
"Make adequate preparations for our subsequent Bingzhou attack."
"Yes!" Cao Hong answered loudly.
Being able to accomplish such a thing can be regarded as his help in the battle of Tanghai.
Although he is not good at martial arts and cannot go to the battlefield.
But he has contributed at least.
When drinking with those military generals in the future, there will still be something to brag about.
Otherwise, I will be scolded by those damn guys.
Especially that dark-faced old Zhang.
Bring two equally dark-facedBrother, you are too talkative.
The key is that you dare not talk back.
This is the most uncomfortable thing.
Zhang Fei is reasonable, and there are only a few people in Tanghai who are not afraid.
He is not one of them.
Under Liu Yu's order, Cao Hong quickly entered into the new work.
All departments were mobilized, and Tanghai City was running rapidly.
…
In the hall of the official temple, Liu Yu called Zhuge Liang, Huang Yueying and Zhou Yu.
"Lord!"
The three have grown up a lot.
The immaturity of the boys and girls gradually faded, and they became more stable.
"How is the development of gunpowder going?" Liu Yu asked.
Zhuge Liang spoke first: "There has been some progress, but it still does not meet the requirements of the lord."
"It has enough sound but not enough power."
"It is difficult to achieve much lethality."
"Also, gunpowder is very susceptible to moisture and is not easy to preserve."
"It is not easy to store and carry when traveling and fighting."
Liu Yu comforted: "Don't rush this."
"It takes time and energy to develop things."
"Take your time."
"Just because it is not powerful now does not mean it will not be powerful in the future."
"You should read and study the books given to you in depth."
"Try to develop more powerful gunpowder weapons."
"Yes!" The three people in the hall responded, and they were determined to make some achievements.
"Lord." Huang Yueying took the initiative to speak.
"The canned food you asked us to develop has been manufactured."
"Oh?" Liu Yu has been very busy recently and has forgotten that there is such a thing.
"Carrots and various vegetables, after being processed and sealed in pottery jars, can be stored for a very long time."
"In addition, various equipment for navigation is also being developed."
"Many projects have already been completed."
Liu Yu nodded and praised: "Not bad."
"Thank you for your hard work."
"Your R&D department should be the first to make great contributions to Tanghai's long voyage."
The three were very happy.
The praise from Liu Yu made them more excited than any reward.
Zhou Yu stood up, bowed and took the initiative to say: "My lord."
"I have a request."
After Liu Yu nodded to continue, Zhou Yu said: "It would be nice if Huang Yueying led the newly graduated students of the official school to the R&D department."
"I hope to devote all my energy to the navy."
"Contribute to Tanghai's navigation business."
"I will explore the long sea journey."
"I beg my lord to agree."
