Chapter 65
Chen Fujia is a slender, confident man.

What impressed Liu Ke the most was the pair of black and white eyes, and the nobility that was evident all the time.

I have a slight impression that he was born in the Chen family of Yingchuan, and he is also one of the important ministers of the family. Like Xiao Yuanchang, he is Yang Zhong's disciple, but this one is closer to Yang Zhong.

【Name: Chen Fujia (Sergeant Sergeant)】

【Age: 29】

[Command: 41 Force: 78 Wisdom: 92 Governance: 79]

[Characteristics: Famous family, prestige, eloquence]

His ability is quite good, his intelligence is even higher than Xiao Yuanchang and Yue Shaoqian, his force and administration are not bad, and he is a talent of a state.

"Looking at his characteristics, he should still be an eloquent talent. There is a shortage of such talents in the imperial court."

"There are indeed many talents in the family, but I don't know if there was any monarchy that grew because of the loyalty of these people before."

"If you don't have the same heart with the imperial court, you won't be able to use it if you have the ability."

Today's big Han is weak, and it is inevitable to unite vertically and horizontally. If Chen Fujia is dedicated to serving the big Han, he will be a useful envoy.

You must know that Donghu is not only a neighboring country of the Han Dynasty, but the Northern Army, Western Army, and Eastern Army of Donghu are all still on the border!

"What happened to Chen Qing's family?"

First touch Chen Fujia's bottom.

Chen Fujia clasped his hands and said:

"Your Majesty, my great Han army is all based in Qiongzhou, while the Eastern Hu Nan Army retreated to Gaozhou and blocked the land route. Now they are facing each other, and they are quite anxious."

"I have a plan to offer, which can bypass Donghu, open up trade routes, and enrich Qiongzhou's supplies."

Liu Ke was serious about his words and smiles, and asked people to serve tea to relieve his fatigue: "Let's listen to it."

Chen Fujia said seriously:

"Myanmar, Jiaozhi, Siam, and Yizhou are our great Han states, rich in resources and people, and have not experienced war."

"Although Qiongzhou is a large grain-producing state, there is a real shortage of iron ore, gold and silver. If His Majesty sends people to restore the old relationship with the four countries and open the sea to do business, we will be able to exchange what we need."

Chen Fujia's thinking was very clear.

Although Qiongzhou and Gaozhou are connected by land, with the strength of the Eastern Hunan Army, it is completely possible to block the dry road and block the big man in Qiongzhou.

If the big man wants to live in a corner, naturally there is no problem.

But if you want to do something, you have to find a way to break through from the sea.

Although Donghu's navy is very bad, there is no such thing as Dahan's side, so it is necessary to find foreign aid and allies.

Liu Ke nodded in agreement. Chen Fujia was right. In terms of resources, Qiongzhou lacked minerals to make enough weapons and armor.

So even if the entire Qiongzhou was recovered, he would only dare to let Lian Han expand his army by [-].

Otherwise, you can't let the recruits go to the battlefield to swing the eight punches, right?

In fact, Liu Ke also considered overtaking on curves.

Qiongzhou has a lot of wood resources, and most of them are hardwoods. They directly produced some disposable earth cannons like elm cannons.

Even though this thing is a one-off and will not be used a few times, it can also play a role in fighting Taiyuan, let alone dealing with Donghu people who have never seen artillery.

But Liu Ke didn't know how to operate it specifically, and if a tree trunk was used as the gun body, it had to be stabilized with iron sheets and iron wires, and iron was still needed.

In contrast, Southeast Asia, although I don’t know how the resources of this overhead world are distributed, but the geographical location is here, so I can’t be poor.

And because of the governance of Meng Huo and Shi Xie, Myanmar and Jiaozhi have been developed for hundreds of years, and they have accumulated huge wealth.

Seeing the emperor's thoughtful expression, Chen Fujia knew that his advice was successful, and continued:
"In addition, the geographical location of Yizhou is extremely important. It faces Minzhou across the sea. If we can attract the help of Yizhou, it may make the maritime affairs more stable and add a strategy that can threaten the coastline of Donghu. To rush."

"Furthermore, after the king of Wu opened up Yizhou, he set up a shipyard, and the two building ships "Feiyun" and "Gaihai" were built here."

"It has been in operation for hundreds of years, and there are many ships in Yizhou. Even if you can't buy large ships, you can try to set up a navy if you buy a large number of boats. The sky is high and the sea is wide, and you can go there."

"Yizhou is the territory of the Han Dynasty, so it cannot be called a country."

Liu Ke speaks clearly, with obvious accent:
"I have sent people to Yizhou to inquire about the crime, and ordered the leader to demote himself to be the governor of Yizhou, the great Han Dynasty. Naturally, there are ships."

"Your Majesty is wise! You have known the importance of Yizhou for a long time!"

Chen Fujia felt a bit chilly, and quickly bowed down:
"The minister's family is quite rich, and some of them are engaged in maritime trade. I would like to donate five merchant ships to open up maritime affairs for the great man!"

"Oh?"

Delivery ship?
Judging from Liu Ke's experience, as long as the boat can be sailed, it is fine.

Go to the private sector to get some large fishing boats, barely enough to go to sea.

He thought so before, but there is no reason not to have a serious ship delivered to his door?
Liu Ke changed his face in an instant, became a little enthusiastic, and even handed the tea he had just taken a sip to Chen Fujia:

"Are there only five merchant ships in Aiqing's family?"

Chen Fujia shuddered unexpectedly, looking at the emperor's eager eyes, thinking of the rivers of blood flowing all over the street a few days ago, he simply said truthfully:
"There are eight merchant ships in the family, but there are three more, to maintain business"

Liu Ke waved his hand: "I still think it's broken!"

"Since it can be opened, I will send it together. The three extra ships will be borrowed from me."

Before Chen Fujia could answer, Liu Ke pondered and felt something was wrong.

The Chen family of Yingchuan, where Chen Fujia was born, is not a wealthy family close to the coast, and has been involved in maritime trade, but not too much.

But there are only eight merchant ships, even if they are all large ships, they can only carry more than 100 tons of cargo. Compared with the reputation of the Yingchuan Chen family, it is still a little less.

"Chen Fujia, do you really not have many boats in your family?"

Chen Fujia smiled wryly:
"The minister's family does not focus on maritime trade. Although there are some merchant ships, they are not many. They were intercepted by pirates last time, and there are indeed only eight ships left."

"Good! Good! Good!"

As soon as Liu Ke made the case, his anger rose from his heart.

There are pirates who dare to snatch his ship?Isn't this the shrimp soldiers and crab generals robbing the Dragon Lord? !
"Where are these pirates entrenched?"

Chen Fujia didn't know why, but felt sorry for the merchant ship lost in vain at home:

"Just between the sea route between Qiongzhou and Yizhou, although the Puliuru Department of Donghu has large ships and warships, it does not have much jurisdiction over maritime affairs, so pirates are particularly rampant along the coast."

It's bad, then he asked Hua Chengyu to go to Yizhou to inquire about the crime before, wouldn't it be a gift?
Liu Ke clenched his fist with his right hand, and hammered on the table extremely forcefully:
"What a pirate!"

"Since I have recovered Qiongzhou, the coast of Qiongzhou will naturally be under my jurisdiction."

"There are pirates making trouble in the place under my jurisdiction, and I will definitely wipe them out!"

Chen Fujia was a little dumbfounded.

If you do sea trade, you do sea trade. How did you become a bandit?
Pirates must be suppressed at any time, and it is impossible not to suppress them.

But it's not so easy to suppress, otherwise the General Liuru Department wouldn't sit idly by, after all, it would lose the hearts of the people if it was so laissez-faire.

Moreover, pirates generally have a sense of propriety. When blocking ships and robbing, they also ask for some tolls, paying attention to a steady stream of water.

A while ago, the Chen's caravan was robbed of its ship and lost its goods. It was also because the leader of the caravan at that time lost his mind for some reason and refused to give money.

"Your Majesty does not know that this group of pirates is extremely difficult to deal with. Their leader is highly skilled in martial arts, and there seems to be some power behind them."

"Now that Qiongzhou is newly settled, and there are no naval generals in the court, it is not appropriate to resort to military warfare. If His Majesty wants to wipe out pirates and clear the sea routes, more investigation is needed and a long-term plan will be considered."

"You can also contact Yizhou Guoyizhou to raise some warships suitable for water warfare, and then attack from the north and the south."

Liu Ke just shook his head and said:

"There are no navy generals, but there is a sea emperor."

Chen Fujia even suspected that he had auditory hallucinations.

He admitted that the emperor was good at fighting, he defeated Zhang Huaiyang in a row with a lot of tricks, and won three counties in three days, which is really strong.

But fighting at sea is not the same thing as fighting on land.

Moreover, the soldiers of the Han Dynasty have almost no experience in water warfare.

The only naval division, as early as 15 years ago, followed the old Shunping Hou who failed to cross the river, and his entire army was wiped out.

Liu Ke sighed, showing a forced smile:

"Aiqing, you can ask your relatives and friends again, and ask if there are any ships in their clan, just lend them to me."

"If I want their boat, of course I have to open a peaceful road for them."

He Kun will soon cut off a wave of aristocratic families, but he can't keep cutting like this, he has to give some benefits appropriately, and draw a cake.

Unlike Flammulina velutipes, leeks can realize perpetual motion. After a wave of cutting, you have to give it some time to grow.

Maritime trade is a good sweetener. Anyway, it is difficult for the people to organize a large-scale sea trade. Let the aristocratic families taste some sweetness first, and open up sea charts to contribute to Dahan's future sea trade.

Chen Fujia understood that the emperor was using soldiers and horses to exchange ships with aristocratic families.

The aristocratic family does not have the ability to exterminate pirates. Although the forbidden army of the big man is not a navy, it is still a regular army with complete armor and excellent equipment.

And after staying in the south for a long time, you have to understand some water properties more or less.

If you really have the determination to exterminate the pirates, you may succeed, but the loss will definitely be not small.

But that has little to do with him.

The absence of pirates is a good thing for the aristocratic family. The Han army suffered heavy losses, and that is the court's business.

Moreover, the imperial court was able to suppress aristocratic families, and Jia Wuji was able to seize his family and behead him. Isn't it all because of soldiers?
Losing some soldiers and horses will actually make life better for the aristocratic family.

Chen Fujia suddenly thought of Yang Zhong's reminder to him before, and quickly threw away some thoughts that he shouldn't have, but sincerely advised:

"Water warfare does not mean that the one with the most boats wins, please think twice, Your Majesty!"

Liu Ke was a little surprised. According to the thoughts of those important officials of the aristocratic family, after thinking about the stakes, he directly agreed with both hands and feet.

This Chen Fujia is really good, he can put aside the interests of the family, consider for the court, and then persuade him.

But Liu Ke is definitely going to go to sea: "It's okay, Ai Qing just go and raise ships for me, the imperial court will not take their ships for nothing."

Seeing this, Chen Fujia had no choice but to say:
"Since Your Majesty intends to exterminate the pirates, I will make the decision and donate the other three merchant ships in the family to the imperial court. After returning home, I will tell my relatives and friends that I must form an invincible navy for the big man!"

Liu Ke just nodded lightly.

Do you really think he wants to rely on the family's merchant ships to form a navy?
Without sails and ships, the enemy built them for us.

When you see your favorite boat at sea, grab it.

First grab the pirates, then grab Yizhou, there is nothing to grab after the grab, the ship has just been upgraded a wave, and the experience in water warfare has been accumulated enough, so grab Donghu directly.
