"Is there any news from Japan?"
Zhao Jun had just finished his morning exercise, sat down and took a sip of tea before asking casually.
Wang Huaien handed over a towel to his prince to wipe his sweat and replied: "In early August, Li Dingguo and the others successfully arrived in Kagoshima and established a firm foothold there to establish a forward position.
At the same time, the other four kingdoms' coalition forces on Rikoku Island also launched an attack on Kagoshima at the same time.
The coalition forces of Oe Domain and Ueda Domain fought a battle with the coalition forces of the Four Domains in Satsuma Domain.
Since Oe Clan and Ueda Clan have received our help, the rate of wearing armor in the army is as high as 70%, so even though the number of people is much smaller than that of the opponent, they are still on par with the opponent.
However, due to the numerical disadvantage, in the subsequent battles due to the decreasing number of soldiers, they gradually fell into a disadvantage.
Just when the Dajiang and Uedian vassals were about to fail, Li Dingguo and the others appeared on the scene. The five hundred heavy cavalry directly destroyed the four-nation coalition and killed everyone. The remaining few hundred people fled back to their vassals.
The Oe Clan and Ueda Clan also suffered heavy losses, so they did not pursue them. The entire Rikoku Island has now fallen into calm again.
All six vassals on the island were silently licking their wounds.
After helping the Ojiang family and the Ueda family defeat the invaders, Li Dingguo and the others put forward the condition of doubling the place for them to stay.
Perhaps because they were afraid of the threat of heavy cavalry, both families agreed honestly.
Now the trading company has specially allocated nearly ten of the newly purchased ships and is working hard to transport supplies to Kagoshima.
The military seems to be preparing to use Kagoshima as the second logistics base after landing. "
Wiping the sweat off his face, Zhao Jun smiled and said casually:
"I'm afraid it's not just that. After seeing the combat effectiveness of the heavy cavalry this time, the military may plan to walk on two legs. While preparing to continue to attack Nagasaki Port, it is also preparing to attack Nagasaki from land ashore at Kagoshima.
With the cooperation of these two factors, the difficulty of taking Nagasaki has been greatly reduced. After all, our Yunzhou County is only powerful with the army. Most of the navy's ships are still merchant ships, which are still incomparable with the Japanese warships. .
If the army can capture Nagasaki Port and control the opponent's seaport, it will be equivalent to destroying their navy in this area. "
"Your Majesty is wise! General Ding and others should think so." Wang Huai'en complimented.
Zhao Jun smiled and then said: "Okay, let them handle this matter. To fight a small country like Japan, as long as the logistics can keep up and there is a landing place, we can fight them with the strength of our Yunzhou Army." It’s so simple.”
Then Zhao Jun asked: "How is this year's autumn harvest?"
Wang Huaien immediately reported the situation sent by the county governor's office yesterday.
"Your Majesty, although the weather this year is a little better than in previous years, the weather is limited.
The local side of Yunzhou County may have one-fifth more production than last year, but the production on the Shendu side is still very stable this year.
Counties are now stepping up grain harvesting, and it is expected that all autumn grain grains will be returned to warehouses in mid-September. "
Zhao Jun nodded: "Very good, everything is developing smoothly, everything is good.
You tell Jiang He and ask them to pay special attention to the situation on the Tatar grassland. Due to the death of the old Chanyu this year, the Huns' control over the grassland has declined.
The Great Yuezhi may be interested in the Tatars. The Tatars were crippled by us in the first battle. If the Great Yueshi really fought, they would be directly exposed.
Let him think of a way to stabilize the situation on both sides as much as possible. The weakness of the Tatar side cannot be exposed for a period of time.
The Xiongnu can accept a weak Tatar, but the stabilized Xiongnu will never accept a weak Tatar who belongs to me, the prince of the Song Dynasty. "
"My servant understands what the prince means and will tell Governor Jiang as soon as possible."
Wang Huaien responded respectfully.
Zhao Jun nodded and was about to get up to eat when he saw Wang Huai'en showing a hesitant expression.
Curious in his heart, he immediately posted: "Wang Banban, do you have anything else to do?"
Wang Huaien hesitated for a moment, and finally took out a letter from his pocket and handed it to Zhao Jun: "Your Majesty, there is news from the palace that your Majesty may..."
Zhao Jun asked while opening the envelope: "What could it be?" ""
"Maybe come to Yunzhou County!"
"What!"
Zhao Jun, who was opening the envelope, paused, raised his head and looked at Wang Huaien in disbelief and asked.
Wang Huaien had no choice but to smile bitterly and say again: "Your Majesty may come to Yunzhou County after the autumn harvest.
A friend whom I met in the palace yesterday is now working for the Prince of Chengqian Palace.
His Majesty personally told the prince this matter yesterday.
Your Majesty said that he was getting old and it was time for him to take a rest. He planned to let the prince supervise the country. He also planned to play here with us until the New Year and then go back. He said he planned to celebrate the New Year with you. "
At this time, Zhao Jun had gradually recovered from the shock. Hearing this, the corners of his mouth twitched involuntarily, and he put his hand on his forehead and said silently: "Old man, you really want to retire!
But you can retire when you retire. Why are you here with me? "
But since the old man said this to the prince, he probably couldn't stop it.
After thinking about it, Zhao Jun broke the pot and said: "Let him do whatever he wants, let him come if he wants.
Anyway, even if I let him see the current Yunzhou County, he can't do anything to me. He will just treat me as my youngest son to support me for a few days.
Let him play.
By the way, do you have any news about when this old man will come? "
"Uh...no.
If His Majesty is going to travel, the route and time will be kept strictly confidential, and even the secret guards may not be able to find out.
The general range we can get here is after the autumn harvest, but we don’t know the specific day. "
"This is troublesome."
Zhao Jun rubbed his eyebrows with a headache. Nowadays, Yunzhou County is still very strict with outsiders. It would be bad if he accidentally hurts his father.
After thinking about it, Zhao Jun simply said: "In this case, when Wang Banpan goes to Jiang He's place, tell him that after this year's autumn harvest, Yunzhou County will officially open to the pass.
However, the identity of people entering and exiting must be strictly checked to avoid sneaky and malicious sneaking in. "
"No! This slave understands!"
Soon, Wang Huaien left and went to find Jiang He to tell Zhao Jun what he meant.
After Zhao Jun sat there for a long time, he turned around and walked towards the princess without even eating.
The old man was coming over, so Zhao Jun thought about asking his father-in-law to come with him.
It just so happens that my wives are saying that they miss their father-in-law recently. Anyway, hosting one is a reception, and hosting two is also a reception, so let's just do it together.
I have to hurry up and ask my wife to send a letter to my father-in-law and ask him to come with the old man. Don’t miss the old man’s ride!
Gee, at this time, I can still remember to pick up my father-in-law and reunite with my daughter-in-law.
I am indeed a good man and husband! Waaaaaaaaaah!
