Mr. Cui looked at the cold-faced Chu Feng and was so frightened that he hurriedly whispered: "Prince-in-law, please don't get me wrong. When we arrived in the capital to ask for help, we absolutely hoped that His Majesty the Emperor would send a large army to help us quell the chaos. We didn't even think of trying to persuade us to make peace. And although the imperial edict just now said that the prince-in-law should be allowed to mediate, it did not say that the prince-in-law should not be allowed to lead troops. As far as I know, several city lords in the Daliang Kingdom all have private armies."
Listening to Master Cui's words, Chu Feng's eyes instantly lit up.
Yes, as a city lord, I have a private army. No wonder there are very few city lords in Daliang. The reason is that the city lords have private armies, which are difficult to manage. It seems that Li Er treats me quite well. The lord of Fengjiang City is much better than the governors of other cities!
However, most of our city lords are close to foreign races, so it is easy for sudden wars to break out. It is also easy to become cannon fodder in the war between the two countries! In short, it’s just blessings and misfortunes that depend on each other.
Now it seems that Li Er asked me to go to Goryeo as an envoy. Although he did not give me a large army, it does not mean that I will not be allowed to lead my own troops!
He simply took the current guards and went to Goryeo to train troops. Hehe, it is said that Goryeo produces beauties, with fair skin and long legs!
Thinking of this, Chu Feng's mood instantly improved a lot.
At this time, he thought about the 150,000 troops currently stationed in Fengjiang, but under the hands of his godfather Xue Rengui, it meant that his Fengjiang should be very stable.
Could it be that Li Er arranged this intentionally, that he had expected that I would lead troops out and ask my godfather to look after my house? If you are like this, old guy Li Er’s information is too well-informed!
Mr. Cui next to him saw Chu Feng's face changing back and forth, and did not dare to disturb him. He just watched quietly, feeling very uneasy. Because just now, he saw with his own eyes that the father-in-law who delivered the edict ran away in such embarrassment!
"Haha, since your majesty has passed down the decree, then I, the city lord, will go to your country. If that prince of yours disobeys, I, the city lord, will teach him the principles of life."
Chu Feng said with a chuckle.
He didn't even care about how many troops the prince who wanted to rebel had. In Chu Feng's heart, he looked down on the current Gao Libing at all.
Because Goryeo was even poorer than Daliang, the soldiers did not even have decent steel armor, most of them had only leather armor, and there were very few thin iron armors.
Of course, these were all the news he got last night. Chu Feng also knew that Mr. Cui’s brand new official robe was very thin and there were patches on his shirt and pants.
"Master Chu, it is really a great joy to be able to go to our Goryeo to quell the chaos. The king will definitely welcome the angel in person. However, Master Chu, have you thought about the marching route? It is a long way from Daliang to Goryeo. The army not only takes a long time to march, but also consumes military supplies. But if you can take a big boat and go down the river, you can reach Goryeo in a very short time. It can also catch the arrogant and violent King Taiping by surprise. "
Master Cui said quickly, actually reminding Chu Feng that taking the waterway from Fengjiang City is faster and more effective.
"By boat or by water?"
Chu Feng was a little hesitant. He really had never developed a naval force, and he didn't even have a big ship in his hands.
Of course, the barbarian tribe's navy is very developed, with many large ships, and their navigation skills are top-notch.
After all, barbarians have lived on the island since childhood. Surrounded by sea.
However, most of his troops can swim. After all, they all grew up by the river. But I don’t have a boat!
It seemed that the only option was to seek help from his father-in-law, the Barbarian King, and set off for Goryeo on a barbarian legion's warship. It's just that if this happens, a lot of secrets will be exposed, but I can't control that much now.
"Okay, I will try my best to take a boat to Goryeo. You can go down first. I have some things to arrange."
Chu Feng said, and asked Master Cui to take the Korean envoys to rest.
At this time, the third princess of Goryeo guessed the news and hurried over with her maid Xiaohong. Unfortunately, she only met Chu Feng who wanted to go out. Just then, he hurriedly lifted up his long skirt, blocking Chu Feng's way, and said softly: "Master Chu, I heard that the imperial edict has arrived."
"Yes, let me go to Korea to mediate with you so that King Taiping will not cause trouble with your father."
Chu Feng said casually.
"Don't you bring an army with you? If you just rely on words, that vicious uncle will never compromise. He will even kill Mr. Chu." The third princess quickly reminded Chu Feng that after all, Chu Feng and her were on the same front now. The comrades on the battlefield must not fall prematurely.
"Haha, don't worry. I have private soldiers. When the time comes, bring them over. If you say you can't reconcile, try to persuade him. By the way, my brothers are still settling accounts, so I have some things to say before you go back. , tell your father, if I deal with King Taiping, I will bring back all the spoils. Of course, you don’t have to pay a penny for sending troops this time. There is no need to send any beautiful women."
Chu Feng looked at the delicate little face of the third princess and said softly. He also reached out to lift the smooth chin of the third princess and looked at it carefully.
The third princess of Goryeo blushed with embarrassment, and did not dare to look at Chu Feng with cold and arrogant eyes. She still lowered her face obediently, letting her fair and slender neck be fully displayed. He said in an extremely low voice: "Everyone will obey Mr. Chu's arrangements. Please send troops as soon as possible, Mr. Chu."
"Haha, I still don't know the name of the third princess. It can be regarded as a dereliction of duty and impoliteness on my part."
Chu Feng was very satisfied with the transformation of the three princesses today. They were no longer as arrogant as they were yesterday. Mainly because of the delicious food from last night to this morning. Although it is really delicious, it is too shocking. It really means that people are poor and have short ambitions.
The maid's meal this morning consisted of salted duck eggs and braised eggs, along with white flour steamed buns and golden and warm millet porridge. It was much better than the breakfast she had in the Goryeo Palace. Especially there is no limit, so be careful.
"My name is Wang Ying, and I am not married yet..."
The third princess said, blushing, why did she talk about marriage. He is a consort, is it possible that he can still marry a Korean princess like himself?
"Haha, I'm not married yet, which is great. However, I still have some things to arrange now. Let's ask Lady Yu to take you to Fengjiang City for a stroll. Buy some nice dresses and jewelry. After all, you are a princess. It can’t be too plain.”
Chu Feng said and glanced at Bai Yuniang beside him.
Bai Yuniang hurried forward, looked at the third princess of Korea and said softly: "Your Highness, the third princess, I will take you shopping."
As a result, when Chu Feng went to the military camp to visit his godfather Xue Rengui in person, Bai Yuniang took the third princess of Korea and her maid Xiaohong to the streets of Fengjiang City.
The development in the past two years has made Fengjiang City really change at a rapid pace, especially when businessmen from many places came to do business, which really drove the economic development of Fengjiang City. The cement business alone has given Fengjiang City many more permanent stevedores!
The people are not afraid of hardship, they are just afraid of having no work to do. Moreover, the wages set by Chu Feng for stevedores are really not low.
The rouge, gouache, and exquisite fabrics dazzled the three princesses of Korea. They felt from the heart that Fengjiang City was far more prosperous than their own capital city!
Especially Bai Yuniang's generosity when she paid for her made her even more shocked by Chu Feng's financial resources.
