Within a hundred miles of the coast, it was simply abandoned.
Not only Chu State, but also neighboring states such as Liang, Nanzheng, and Jin Country to the north, which also bordered the sea, suffered from the ravages of sea pirates like Chu State.
However, because they were situated in the north, far from the Southsea, the pirates from the Southsea could not reach that far, and hence there were fewer coastal raiding troubles.
Jin Country and Xu State, though, faced more severe bandit problems from the pirates.
It was because not only did they have pirates coming from the Southsea, but also raiders driven by the storms of the East Sea began to migrate toward the Nine Provinces.
At present, these people had landed in areas like Yuzhou and Liangzhou, frequently harassing the coastal frontiers of Jin and Xu, causing them great trouble.
Even the warfare in Yuzhou was thus greatly affected.
