The strategic location of Yizhou is of course very important, but if Japan wants to occupy a place in Yizhou, it must be approved by Xiao Chen, otherwise it will be useless.
Ren Bijiang knew this, Emperor Shenzhao knew it, Xiao Chen certainly knew it, and it was impossible for Ren Haitang not to know it.
Therefore, Ren Bijiang felt that his mother was asking questions knowingly.
Do you want to test yourself? The question is a bit too simple.
"It's good that you know." Ren Haitang was still satisfied with Ren Pijiang's answer. "I know what you are worried about. Are you afraid that Xiao Chen won't agree? Haha, since you have a good relationship with him, you might as well try to follow him. He made this request. You have to know that there are many things that we need to fight for ourselves. If we don’t fight for it, how can we know it won’t work?”
"Yes, my son has taken note of what mother said." Ren Bijiang said hurriedly.
"I'm just saying this to remind you, haha, you are also a Japanese Navy general now, and I can't order you." Ren Haitang said lightly.
"Son, I don't dare!" Ren Bijiang felt bad after hearing this and quickly knelt down on the ground.
"Get up and talk. I'm not blaming you. I'm just praising you for your potential." Ren Haitang said, "Here is a list for you. They are all outstanding generals in the Japanese navy, and they are all ours." People from the Xiaolin shogunate, if you go to see the emperor tomorrow, he will definitely ask you to select troops and generals, so don’t be unprepared when the time comes..."
Early the next morning, Emperor Shenzhao indeed sent someone to look for Ren Bijiang. This time they still had a confidential conversation, but their attitude towards him was also very different from before. If it can be said that before, it was still the care of the elders for the younger ones. and inquiries, now it is the king's formal and serious conversation with his ministers.
"Do you know why I want to use you as a general?" It is a difficult question to answer from the beginning.
"I don't know." Ren Pijiang could only answer this. It was best not to be clever with the emperor.
"Hasn't Xiao Chen talked to you about Yizhou before?" Emperor Shenzhao asked.
"We talked about it, but we didn't mention that I wanted to leave." Ren Bijiang said.
"Yes, but this is indeed his suggestion." Emperor Shenzhao said.
"If this is the case, I won't be able to go!" Ren Bijiang said hurriedly.
"Oh? Why is this?" Emperor Shenzhao was quite surprised when he heard this.
"Jun Xiao Chen, of course, is my elder brother, and I have always admired him." Ren Pijiang changed the topic, "But Jun Xiao Chen is not from Japan after all. To some extent, he is even our enemy! I think he is We should not accept his suggestion. If the emperor is in trouble, I can refuse because of my illness and give him an explanation."
What he said was very thorough, his attitude was very clear, and his stance was quite firm.
In addition to the surprise of Emperor Shenzhao, there was also a little surprise. This boy was not old, but his mind was still very clear.
"It's not easy for you to think of this and dare to tell me face to face." Emperor Shenzhao expressed his pleasure and nodded in approval, "As for resigning, that's not necessary. My decree has been made. But it can’t be changed, otherwise why would you believe it?”
"I will definitely live up to the emperor's trust." Ren Pijiang stopped being entangled and answered neatly.
This made Emperor Shenzhao very happy, and when he looked at him again, there was more appreciation in his eyes.
"As the commander-in-chief of this battle, do you have any plans in mind?" Emperor Shenzhao's question was not unexpected, because he had already been given one night to think about it.
"Do your best to get the greatest benefits for us!" Ren Pijiang had already thought about it.
"What's specific?" Emperor Shenzhao asked.
"One is economic. I will first strive to open several commercial ports for us in Japan in Yizhou to berth our merchant ships. In this way, we can directly trade with southern Xinjiang and Western countries in the future, eliminating the need for This minister is very sure of all the intermediate links."
"The second is military. I believe that since we are sending troops to attack Yizhou in name, we will eventually occupy some territory in name, and at least have a few ports to berth warships. Otherwise, Xiao Chenjun, he The strategy of killing someone with a borrowed knife is not perfect...if a small deception comes true, it will be difficult for him to object."
"Well said." Emperor Shenzhao was very happy, because this is exactly what he wanted to say, "You may not know that when we cooperated with Dazhou to attack Xiao Xinghan, we also occupied a certain area in Yizhou. Territory and several good ports, but later..."
Later, it was taken back by the hateful Emperor of Zhou Dynasty, and all the Japanese fleet and soldiers were driven back. Emperor Shenzhao still feels useless when he thinks about it now!
"The current situation is different from the past, and Xiao Chenjun is not the emperor of the Zhou Dynasty." Ren Bijiang said, "The difficulty of this matter lies in fighting for it, but as long as you can win it over, and with the way Xiao Chenjun has always acted, you will never regret it!"
"But as for Xiao Chenjun..." Emperor Shenzhao is very cunning and cunning, and I don't seem to be able to play with him, so this matter is easy to say but difficult to implement.
"Xiao Chenjun, as everyone knows, is very cunning in his work!" However, Ren Pijiang directly said what Emperor Shenzhao was thinking, which made him so happy that he couldn't help but nod and smile.
"But I will be moved by him emotionally and understand him rationally. If it doesn't work, I will threaten him..." Ren Bijiang said.
"Hmm...ah?" Emperor Shenzhao was frightened when he heard the last sentence. Do you want to threaten him?
"Haha, Your Majesty, Lord Xiao Chen is in our country now." Ren Pijiang said with a smile, "No matter how great his abilities and strength are, he can't display them in our hands! I might as well speak more frankly, if your Majesty If he dies, he won’t be able to come back alive!”
"Oh, Mr. Xiaolin's idea is really..." Emperor Shenzhao shook his head repeatedly, but the smile on his face could not be concealed after all, because it was deeply rooted in my heart.
"He will go back soon. The emperor will definitely hold a farewell banquet for him. Please give me two hundred elite soldiers, one hundred warriors, one hundred ninjas, and one hundred master guards to ambush outside the tent! Mr. Xi, I will give him a toast. If he refuses to drink the toast, then I will have to give him a fine drink..." Ren Bijiang said.
"This move is too reckless and is like child's play. You must not do it!" Emperor Shenzhao felt very happy, but he also knew that he couldn't do this.
This is so irrational, my little love.
"Your Majesty, I am the one who is reckless, and I am also the one who is playing tricks. I am drunk, and there is no harm in playing drunk and crazy... As long as the play is made more realistic, how will Mr. Xiao Chen know whether the minister is awake or drunk?" Ren Bijiang laughed. He said, "The leader of the Five Hegemons, Duke Huan of Qi, was afraid of blood splattering within five steps. How can Lord Xiao Chen not be afraid?"
"Oh?" Emperor Shenzhao became more and more happy as he listened, "Do you mean, Mr. Xiao Lin, to make a joke on Mr. Xiao Chen?"
"There will be no singing and dancing at the king's banquet, but I am willing to get drunk to cheer you up!" Ren Bijiang said.
