On the pier, the north wind roared like a knife or a sword, and the pain caused by scratching the face. Snowflakes flew straight into the eyes, making people unable to open their eyes.

Li Jun stood on the shore wearing an imperial robe and Wen Tianxiang, watching the ships coming in and out, flowing endlessly. Wen Tianxiang said excitedly: "Your Majesty, this pier was repaired by Boyan. He built this pier to transport supplies, but he didn't expect it to be cheaper. When Boyan was defeated, a batch of supplies came ashore and all of them were seized for us. In addition to weapons and winter clothes, there were also a lot of jerky meat and milk wine."

Liu Hezi was harassed by Boyan's rear road, and it was difficult to replenish supplies. After adopting the siege strategy, such a simple dock was built in Hangzhou Bay to transport supplies. In the battle of Jiaoshan, Zhang Shijie was defeated and lost most of the navy. The Yuan Dynasty navy established its advantage. If it was replenished from the water, it would be safer. Boyan's hundreds of thousands of troops were not short of the cost.

Of course, Liu Hezi was a good general and would not be indifferent. He organized many guerrillas to specifically reconnaissance and destroy Yuan army ships, and the results were good, killing many Yuan army ships. However, the Yuan Dynasty navy was too powerful after all, and it could not be stopped by his guerrillas, and it did not affect the supply of Boyan's army.

Since Boyan retreated, this place naturally became the spoils of the Song army. Wen Tianxiang brought people to the dock that day and was surprised to find that the supplies here were piled up like mountains, and the weapons were covered with armor were numerous, and there were also many Mongolian foods such as jerky meat, horse milk wine. On that day, the rescue battle in Lin'an was attacked in front and back, and it was a surprise attack, which was completely beyond Boyan's expectations. The supplies here were not too late to be processed and were not destroyed. Boyan's efforts made the Song army free of charge.

More importantly, Boyan built such a simple wharf and was just used. When the fleets in Guangzhou and Fuzhou arrived, they unloaded the goods here, which just solved the problem of not having a wharf. If there was no such wharf, the goods could only be found to be unloaded at any place and then transported back, which would be much more troublesome.

"Jelly meat, how much is horse milk wine?" Li Jun asked looking at the busy ship.

Wen Tianxiang said excitedly: "A lot, like a mountain, enough for our army to eat for half a month. The emperor, I think it can be distributed to the soldiers and let them taste the spoils they seized. This is the best reward for the soldiers."

"That's natural." Li Jun agreed with Wen Tianxiang's idea very much, thought for a while and then said, "However, you can only give them part of it, not all of it."

Lin'an is short of everything now, and not only has weapons, but also food is extremely short. The only thing that is not lacking is difficulties. If it is sent on, it can solve the urgent problem. Li Jun disagreed. Wen Tianxiang couldn't figure it out and asked strangely: "Master, why is this?"

Li Jun looked at Wen Tianxiang and said, "Lu Shan, what effect would it be if we distributed these foods to the common people?" A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. Wen Tianxiang looked a little like a wolf grandmother, and couldn't understand it. He was thinking about what effect could it have, and he was just used to fill his stomach. He said, "The emperor has other secrets, so please tell me."

"It's not a mystery, but I just have an idea." Li Jun smiled and said modestly, "I thought, if I distributed some of these foods to every household, it would be the spoils of the Lin'an victory. Do you think the people would be happy?"

Wen Tianxiang patted his forehead lightly, screaming with excitement, and said, "Your Majesty, this plan is amazing, and it is indescribable."

After more than 40 years of war in Mongolia and Song dynasties, there was no decent victory. It was almost impossible to seize Mongolia's spoils, and such a large seizure was unique. If jerky and horse milk wine were sent to the people during the Spring Festival and they were asked to taste it in person, the uplifting of the morale of the people was much better than the 10000 propaganda articles written by a hundred literary saints. Facts are better than words. If the people tasted the jerky and horse milk wine in person, can they not believe this? Will they still believe that the Mongols are extremely powerful and invincible? Can they still not be confident?

Looking at the excited Wen Tianxiang, Li Jun took the opportunity to hand him an errand and said, "You will be responsible for this matter and post it as soon as possible. As long as the time is enough and the situation is acceptable, it will be distributed in the Song Dynasty, so that the people can have a happy Spring Festival."

Lin'an beat the Great Victory Staff and wiped out hundreds of thousands of enemies. This was a huge joy. The news spread, and the people beat the gongs and set off firecrackers to celebrate, and then added icing on the cake to Li Jun. They were even more happy and joyful.

Wen Tianxiang had no choice but to accept the order happily: "Don't worry, my elders, I will handle it as soon as possible. We will let the people eat the meat of the Tartars and drink the milk of the Tartars during the Spring Festival. Emperor, what kind of reaction do you think the people will react?" Thinking of such a clever idea, it will definitely inspire the enthusiasm of the people, Wen Tianxiang, the saint of literary world, didn't know what words to express it.

"What else can you do? Of course, the family gathered on the table to raise a glass to drink together, picked up a piece of jerky meat, and said to eat the meat of the Tartars." Li Jun imagined the situation where the people were eating meat in their hearts, and said, "Chen Yizhong, Lu Xiufu and the others did a good job. Not only did they send troops, they also transported so many supplies to us. They unloaded them for five days, but they didn't even have a fraction of them."

"The emperor said it." Wen Tianxiang agreed with Li Jun's opinion very much and said, "This Chen Yizhong is really impressive." He held back his words and said nothing.

When Li Jun first arrived in this world, Wen Tianxiang and Chen Yizhong were in power and were incompatible. Wen Tianxiang advocated the war of resistance, while Chen Yizhong advocated moving the capital to the Gou'an, and the two fought hard. Unexpectedly, Li Jun sent Chen Yizhong to the rear of Guangzhou's business strategy. He became a completely different person and did a great job. Not only did he train an army, but he also collected so many supplies. He was completely different from the Chen Yizhong who was determined to escape. Thinking of these, Wen Tianxiang naturally felt a lot of emotion.

This is a famous saying: "A tiger leads a flock of sheep to defeat a group of wolves, and a sheep leads a flock of tigers to defeat a group of wolves." The problem of the Song Dynasty was not with the ministers, but with the emperor, not with the incompetence of the ministers. On the contrary, the Song Dynasty was full of talents, but without being valued. It was the emperor's incompetence that caused a peaceful situation. Li Jun came to this world, selected talents and appointed talents, and advocated the war of resistance. Chen Yizhong was invisibly influenced by him and became a different person without realizing it.

Li Jun understood Wen Tianxiang's feelings very well and said, "There are too many supplies and we cannot be dismantled here. Although Boyan retreated, the Mongolian navy still has an overwhelming advantage. Once they get the news, they will inevitably come in full swing. Our navy is no match for others at all. It is almost impossible to protect so many ships."

"The emperor said, I think so too." Wen Tianxiang agreed with Li Jun's opinion and said, "I have transferred all the warships and set up Hui Hui cannons on the shore. If the Tartars dare to come, he will not be able to get it."

Li Jun did not agree with Wen Tianxiang's conclusion and said, "Lu Shan, have you ever thought about it? What would happen if the Mongols did not enter the range of Huihui cannons but attacked our fleet from a distance? Our navy could not compare with others at all."

Wen Tianxiang said helplessly: "Your Majesty, I have thought about this, but we don't have a navy army, so there is nothing we can do. I am incompetent, so I ask the emperor to punish me."

"It cannot be blamed on you, but the facts forced me to do this." Li Jun comforted him and said, "I have thought about establishing a Ningbo port near the Zhoushan Islands. I sent Chen Yizhong and others to Lingnan to think about this idea. I have always wanted to repair it, but because Lin'an was surrounded and had no chance to repair it. Now I can implement this plan.

"With Ningbo Port, Lingnan's materials can not only be transported to Lin'an without any obstacles, but also have an additional sea outlet in the south of the Yangtze River. The local specialty products from Jiangnan can be shipped overseas and then transported overseas for overseas trade."

Wen Tianxiang patted his forehead and suddenly realized, saying, "Your Majesty, I really forgot such an important thing. Your Majesty is now cold and cold, which is not conducive to building a city."

"You have too many things, so how can you care about these things?" Li Jun comforted him, sighed softly, and said, "Lu Shan is right. However, it is a critical period, and you can't care about so many things. You have to practice even if you can. If you can, you still have to practice. If you don't practice, I dare to assert that soon, the Mongolian navy will appear. By then, we will not be able to fight back and provide a safe haven for ships. The consequences will be unimaginable."

After looking at the anxious Wen Tianxiang, Li Jun continued: "It's different with the Zhoushan Islands. There are many islands there. We can deploy Huihuans on it, then transport the cast iron bombs over, and simply transport ten artillery pieces over. The firepower system is deployed on the islands on the shore. As long as he dares to come, he will definitely be told to come or not."

Speaking of Zhoushan Islands, friends are familiar with them. The Chinese army often holds exercises there. Shi Lang, a famous general in the Qing Dynasty, once trained troops in Zhoushan and finally recovered Taiwan. The Chinese army still loves the Zhoushan Islands for a reason. There are many islands and reefs here, which is very similar to the imaginary enemy, so it is best to conduct exercises.

Of course, Li Jun did not want to conduct exercises, but wanted to use the scattered islands and reefs to deploy firepower systems, which could provide better protection for ships entering the port. Friends can think that the very one-sided protection measures such as only using the Hui gun to fire cast iron bombs on the shore and the convenience provided by the islands and reefs to cooperate with the attack on the shore are incomparable to the security level.

There are many islands in the Zhoushan Islands, and each of them has sufficient firepower, which is purely a huge firepower platform. If the Mongolian navy comes to attack, the ships can be well protected as long as they hide in the archipelago.

"What the Emperor said is very true." Wen Tianxiang agreed with Li Jun's idea, pondered for a while, and said sadly: "Although it can provide a larger space for protection, if the Tartars bypass the Zhoushan Islands and instead attack ships outside the protection range, our losses will be very large."

Li Jun secretly praised Wen Tianxiang for being upright when he saw things, and said, "Lu Shan's concerns are not unreasonable. We can send more patrols, strengthen water patrols, and do a good job of early warning. We can notify ships to enter the port in advance for a temporary escape." He sighed and said, "Under the current situation, we can only do this."

In Wen Tianxiang's mind, Li Jun was a very thoughtful person and rarely sighed. His sigh was helpless, and he sighed, saying, "Master, if the Tartars blocked our seaways without attacking, our ships could not move forward and retreat, and the consequences would be great."

"Isn't this the submarine wolf pack tactics implemented by German Navy Marshal Denitz during World War II?" Li Jun was shocked, his eyes rolled a few times, slapped his forehead, and said, "What Lu Shan said is a reminder. Let's go and find Huang Yongshan, and he has another chore." He was very excited and Wen Tianxiang was screaming for Huang Yongshan who was so busy that he was dizzy.

During World War II, Germany's surface ships were far from the opponent of Britain, the number one naval power. When vigorously developing submarines, Denitz developed the "wolf pack tactics" and almost suffocated the British. Li Jun reminded Wen Tianxiang that he immediately thought that if the Mongolian naval army really adopted the suffocation tactics, they would not have almost suffocated and died like Britain back then and would have suffered losses that they should not have suffered. He immediately thought of an idea. This idea is of epoch-making significance in naval history. From then on, naval warfare turned a whole new page.

Construction of Ningbo was an urgent task. Wen Tianxiang immediately mobilized people to start building against the wind and snow. First, he built several simple docks in a safe place to facilitate ships to enter and exit the imperial guards. At the same time, Hui Hui cannons were deployed on the coast and on the island, and a strict firepower network was established. The simple dock of the Yuan army was too unsafe and would no longer be used after it was put into use in Ningbo Port.

Chen Yizhong and Lu Xiufu made great efforts and brought countless supplies. Looking at the piles of materials like mountains, Li Jun felt dizzy. At the beginning, he sent Chen Yizhong and Lu Xiufu to manage the strategy behind the back because he considered that once Lin'an was not guaranteed, there would be a stable strategy behind the back when the implementation of the strategy retreated. Unexpectedly, the two of them had great achievements. Not only did they send reinforcements to relieve Lin'an's danger, but they also transported so much materials. The rewards Li Jun received in this move were so rich that he could not believe it.

"I am Fang Mao, please see the emperor." Fang Mao gave Li Jun a great gift. Li Jun hurriedly helped him up with his hands and said, "Forgive, no. These common etiquettes are really annoying." Li Jun was not lying. When he came to this world, no one would have to kowtow a hundred or eighty heads to him. In the hearts of a modern person, Li Jun, there would be no reason to kowtow whenever he met, which made him unable to stand it.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Fang Mao stood up with Li Jun's support.

Li Jun carefully looked at the man who had tanned the overseas sun and said, "Thank you so much. You are also very hard to engage in overseas trade. The overseas sun poison has tanned your skin."

Sanfoqi is now in Malaysia. It is located near the Nansha Islands in China's territorial waters. It is a tropical area and has high temperatures all year round. Fang Mao and others go to trade here, and the most unlucky thing is the yellow skin of the Chinese.

"The emperor's words are so heavy." Fang Mao said hurriedly: "Although the sun overseas is a little poisonous, I can still bear it. This little bit of pain is much easier than the soldiers in Lin'an who sacrifice their lives and shed their blood."

Li Jun smiled and said, "You Fang Mao, you are really good at speaking."

"Your Majesty, I'm telling the truth. No matter how poisonous the sun is, it's not as much as the scimitar of the Tartars. I'm really not a big deal to suffer." Fang Mao was busy confessing.

Li Jun praised Fang Mao's response very much and said, "In fact, what is really poisoned is not the Mongol scimitar, but the heart of the people. It is the heart of the slave who only wants to escape and does not want to resist the war. People's hearts are united and Mount Tai moves. As long as our ministers and people of the Song Dynasty work together, there is no need to worry about invincible defeat of the Tartars."

As soon as Li Jun finished speaking, Fang Mao hurriedly kowtowed to Li Jun and said, "With the emperor's wise leadership, the Song Dynasty will definitely have a bright future."

"Okay, let's not talk about this." Li Jun helped Fang Mao up and said, "Tell me about your overseas affairs, so that I can listen." Li Jun thought Fang Mao had seen it with his own eyes. This was the first-hand material and an excellent opportunity to compare ancient and modern times. He, a historian, was naturally very interested.

Fang Maoli said in his thoughts: "Your Majesty, the overseas style is very different from that of China. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would not believe that there would be such a big difference."

"That's of course." Li Jun agreed in his heart, listening quietly to Fang Mao telling his overseas adventure story.

Fang Mao told his story very excitedly, and he was talking all over his mouth. Li Jun looked at his cheerful look and wanted to laugh, thinking: "I have been to Malaysia for many times. These ancient people are really, and they are very excited. If he did what he did, China's Shenzhou spacecraft entered space, we wouldn't have burst blood vessels with excitement."

Fang Mao finally finished speaking, Li Jun handed him a cup of tea. He was happy and didn't expect to give him a thank you. He took it and drank it cleanly. He moistened his throat, which was dry without saliva, and said: "Emperor, when I turned around, I brought back a strange thing. Lord Su said that the Prime Minister asked the Prime Minister to find a jade craftsman to carve it before tribute to the emperor. Before I could deal with it in Guangzhou, I went north again and forgot about this matter. I thought, there are skilled craftsmen in Guangzhou and Lin'an. The emperor would do it as long as he issued an imperial edict. I could find a few jade craftsmen to carve it out. Otherwise, I would take it back to Guangzhou again."

He was a little bit clever enough in this matter, but Li Jun liked his straightforwardness and said, "What kind of treasure is it, let me see." What he thought to himself was: "Maybe it is really an amazing treasure, it has a high archaeological value." Unconsciously, the scholar's idea arose.

Li Jun was very interested, and Fang Mao became even more energetic. He excitedly spread the red silk, revealing the amber block, and said, "Your Majesty, it's this treasure."

When Li Jun saw this thing at first sight, he was very knowledgeable and opened his mouth. He was so surprised that he almost fell to the ground. Li Jun was surprised not because this was really a rare treasure, but because it was raw rubber. Fang Mao and the others didn't know the goods and actually regarded it as a treasure. Fortunately, Su Dingfang thought it out and actually asked a jade worker to carve it for Li Jun. (Note: Regarding the color of raw rubber, I have checked a lot of information but didn't find it. Finally, I found a useful sentence in the national standard for raw rubber testing, saying that the standard board for color comparison is amber, so I set it to amber. I don't know if it is right. If someone knows, please say it. The raw rubber here is raw rubber cut from the rubber tree, and it has not been processed.)

Seeing Li Jun's surprised look, Fang Mao really thought that he had obtained the treasure and surprised Li Jun, saying, "Your Majesty, this thing is unique in our Song Dynasty. It is everywhere in the Three Buddhas, and there are so many that no one wants it." Since it is a gift of treasures, of course, the fewer the better. He was so happy that he said it all.

Li Jun shook his head gently, sobered up his mind and said, "What did you say? You said that raw rubber is in the Three Buddhas? So much so that no one wants it?" Li Jun was a little embarrassed about this.

Rubber was first produced in North America, introduced to Europe in the 16th and 17th century, and then moved to Southeast Asia. Now Malaysia and Thailand are the two largest rubber producers. In the Song Dynasty, there was no rubber in Malaysia at all, so it is normal for Li Jun to not believe that there was raw rubber. (Note: This book has adjusted the rubber history for the sake of plot needs.)

Although Fang Mao did not understand why Li Jun was interested in this question, he answered truthfully: "Back to the emperor, in the Three Buddhas, there are so many treasures that can be used as a bed. If Su Dingfang hadn't said that this treasure was not in the Song Dynasty, if it were well carved, it could be sold as an ornament and make money from it. I really don't want to bring it."

"This Su Dingfang has a lot of business acumen. I think of the silver. However, this is a good thing, just solved my problem. Huang Yongshan is too busy to do anything for him. Shen Bi is suffering again, and he has to deal with the production of rubber." Li Jun smiled secretly in his heart and said, "Raw rubber is indeed a good thing, but it is not used as decorations. This is a very important raw material. With this thing, we can create a lot of good things, and the court will become stronger."

Fang Mao never expected this to be the ending and said, "Your Majesty, is it really useful?" Logically speaking, Fang Mao would not speak like this, which was really unexpected. The expected treasure suddenly became an important industrial raw material, and he couldn't be surprised.

"Of course." Li Jun nodded and said, "If you go there next time, you will buy this thing when you return, and buy as much as you can. If you don't ship it back, you will sign an agreement with them and buy them all." He did not forget to remind Fang Mao to cut the price and said, "Of course, the price should be lower."

Fang Mao never expected that Li Jun would have such a face as a prodigal businessman. He smiled in his heart and said, "Prince, please don't worry, I will do it."

"Okay. Time doesn't wait for anyone, you can hurry back to Guangzhou immediately." Li Jun ordered to see off the guests.

Fang Mao said, "I will leave."

Li Jun thought for a while and said, "If the equipment is only manufactured in Lin'an, if you don't have enough time, go find Huang Yongshan when you go back and take a group of steam engines and machine tools, as well as experienced people who can drive steam engines and machine tools. Keep a part of Fuzhou, and the rest will be left in Guangzhou." Li Jun planned to manufacture equipment in Fuzhou and Guangzhou.

"Abide by the order." Fang Mao led the order.

"The Spring Festival will be in a few days, and Boyan is still recovering from his injuries. If I don't give him some gifts, I'm sorry for An Cha." Li Jun smiled and said, "It's not easy for him to come from Mobei to Jiangnan. He climbed up the hill and fell lightly. If he didn't greet him, he must complain that An Cha was not worthy of his feelings." Li Jun has a sense of humor. He obviously used cannons to blow Boyan seriously, but it turned into a fall. He could think of it.

Although Li Jun was talking about laughter and banquets, Wen Tianxiang, Gao Da, Liao Shenggong, Zhao Liangchun, Huang Han, Zhao Qian and others seemed to have a bit of a wolf grandmother. I don’t know what Li Jun was thinking about. Needless to say, he must have thought of a way to deal with Boyan. It seems that Boyan is feeling better again, and he can’t help but laugh secretly.

Wen Tianxiang held back his laughter and said, "What the emperor said is very reasonable. Although the Tartars are unkind, we must not be unrighteous. During the Spring Festival, we must always do the friendship of the landlord and give him some gifts. Emperor, I think he can give him a good prescription for healing." He was mocking Boyan for being injured.

"It's not enough to just give gifts. It's better to find a place to talk to him. I'll tell you, my Anda is an amazing hero, so I'll talk about the hero with him?" Li Jun looked at Wen Tianxiang and the others and said with a smile: "You guys, will he come?"

This question is difficult to answer. Wen Tianxiang and the others know that Boyan is extremely courageous, so maybe he will really come to Lin'an and Li Jun to talk about heroes by cooking wine. It is reasonable to say that he doesn't come. After all, this is Lin'an and the capital of the Song Dynasty. If he comes, he will go deep into the tiger's den, which is too dangerous.

Wen Tianxiang and the others looked at me, and I looked at you, but they didn’t know how to answer Li Jun’s strange questions.

Liao Shenggong thought for a while and said, "It's good, I'm afraid Boyan won't dare to come. The Tartars are unkind, the killing is too heavy, and the public is too angry. Even if we don't make things difficult for him, once the people find out that he has come to Lin'an, they will definitely besiege him. If he loses control, he will be compensated. No matter how brave he is, he will not dare to take such a dangerous risk."
