"Master Xiao, you know the situation of our Great Zhou Navy. The last time we fought in Yizhou, the damage was more serious. Now most of the warships are in the ship repair yard and cannot be dispatched. This time you go to Yizhou, and you really can't. I've sent a warship to you..." Lu Jing was afraid that Xiao Chen would say something unpleasant again, so he started talking about business.
"Well, what Mr. Lu said is true." Xiao Chen nodded in agreement. Anyway, no matter what Lu Jing said, he would treat it as if he really listened.
"Although there are no battleships, there are soldiers and horses. Prince Fengyang's thirty thousand White Dragon Guards are stationed in Haining Bay at the moment. I have already asked the emperor and the prince for instructions, so I will send all these troops and horses to you, Mr. Xiao, under your control. You fight against Yizhou," Lu Jing said.
"I can't obey my order." Xiao Chen refused, thinking to himself, Your Majesty, are you kidding me again?
When we go to Yizhou, the main focus is naval battles, and there is no need for land elites like the White Dragon Guards. So if you let them follow you, you are just waiting to harvest the fruits of my victory, right?
Over there, I defeated the Westerners, and over here they marched directly into Yizhou. They were very smart in their calculations, weren't they?
"Oh? Why is this?" Lu Jing looked puzzled, "You know, in order to persuade Prince Fengyang to hand over military power, the emperor and a group of us also spent a lot of time. In the end, Prince Fengyang I still put the overall situation first and am willing to hand over all the elite members of his direct lineage to your hands, Mr. Xiao. This is a huge trust!"
"Master Lu, what I mean is not that I can't obey the emperor's orders, but that these White Dragon Guards will not obey my orders. You also said that they are all direct soldiers of Prince Fengyang. They always obey orders but not propaganda. Even the emperor may not be able to command and move, how can I, a little governor of Yanyun, be able to mobilize?"
"It's a big taboo for military strategists to not know the power of affairs, to be incompetent in command, and to have a big tail! I don't understand the truth that everyone who leads the army knows. You, Mr. Lu, are the Minister of the Ministry of War. Don't you know the pros and cons?" Xiao Chen said bluntly. .
"However..." Lu Jing said.
"Xiao Chen, the emperor entrusted these 30,000 elite White Dragon Guards to you, which is a huge trust in you, and you refused. This not only failed the emperor's trust in you, but also disobeyed the emperor's order!" Li Shi said coldly! The way.
"We will be outside, and your orders will be ignored!" Xiao Chen said, "Your Majesty, your Majesty, will surely understand my difficulties. In this battle, almost all of our Yanyun soldiers came out, wasting people and money, and spending huge amounts of money. What did we do? It is only to resist foreign invasion and establish the majesty of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Therefore, this battle is a matter of life and death. If it cannot succeed, it must be benevolent!"
"Since I have devoted all my strength to Yan Yun and am determined to die, I am not afraid to tell the prince and Mr. Lu what is in my heart. These thirty thousand White Dragon Guards are not the reason why the emperor and prince are worried about me and sent them here. Are you spying on me?" Xiao Chen sighed, "If that's the case, all my loyalty will be wasted!"
State your words directly and speak quickly.
"Master Xiao, have you misunderstood the Emperor and the Prince too much?" Lu Jing did not expect Xiao Chen to speak so straightforwardly, and his face suddenly changed color.
"It's because the emperor and the prince misunderstood me too deeply, and the traitors in the court were instigating it, which led to the suspicion of the emperor and his ministers. It's like this!" Xiao Chen said, "Master Lu, you are an important minister of the country, and you are also responsible for this. of!"
"Oh, Mr. Xiao, what you said..." Lu Jing suddenly felt sweat on his forehead and was speechless.
"Everyone wants me, Xiao Chen, to die, as if if I die, the world will be peaceful, Yanyun will be stable, and everyone will have no worries!" Xiao Chen sighed, "I, Xiao Chen, am passionate and loyal to the emperor to serve the country, but unexpectedly I fell. To this point... However, since ancient times, only the ruler has doubted his ministers' ways, and no ministers have doubted his principles. In the final analysis, it is I, Xiao Chen, who deserves death!"
Li Shi and Lu Jing looked at each other in silence.
"I should have gone to die in front of the emperor now, but the important task entrusted to me by the emperor has not been completed, so I did not dare to die. If I go to Yizhou and die in battle, it will be over. If I am lucky enough to come back alive, I will definitely go to Beijing to plead guilty. !" When Xiao Chen talked about his sadness, he inevitably shed a few heroic tears.
Expressing deep disappointment with the emperor and the court.
"What Mr. Xiao just said was shocking. I will tell the truth to the emperor when I go back. I believe the emperor can sympathize with your loyalty to the emperor, and I think he will have a favor for you later." Lu Jing could only say.
"Xiao Chen, in the final analysis, you are still suspicious. The Emperor has always treated you with great kindness! Even I, the king, have always believed in you, valued you, and loved you... Needless to say, when you return in triumph, I will definitely Let's get drunk together with you, and let's talk about what's on our mind." Li Shidao.
"Alas..." Xiao Chen looked up to the sky and sighed, feeling quite helpless.
After sending the two people off the boat, they immediately gave the order to set sail. This place was too haunted to stay for a long time.
"Why are you squeezing out cat urine? It's a shame you're still a man!" The fat man couldn't help but be surprised when he saw that there were still wet tears on Xiao Chen's face.
"When a man sheds tears, he doesn't shed them lightly, because he hasn't reached the point where he is sad!" Xiao Chen said.
"Why the hell are you so sad? Tell me quickly and make me happy for a while." The fat man couldn't stand his pretending to be serious.
"Isn't it because of Li Wanjiang?" Xiao Chen said angrily, "I have completely lost all my love for him. Does he still want to cheat me? What's the point of asking me to take Li Wanjiang with me? Feng’s 30,000 White Dragon Guards go... Do you think there is anyone who can do things like this?"
"Tch, let me tell you, your kid is asking for this. Why do you insist on talking to him? Isn't this just taking off his pants and farting? Isn't it completely unnecessary?" said the fat man.
"This is not what Fatty knows!" Xiao Chen smiled again.
"I know you don't want to fall out with Li Wanjiang yet, but the more you try to give him trouble, the more he'll do it!" said the fat man.
"Boss, why don't you take advantage of the plan and take those 30,000 White Dragon Guards with you?" Ibu said, "It would be great to take them out to sea and kill them all directly."
"Do you think they won't follow me if I don't take them with me? Didn't you see that a group of troop transports and a dozen escort warships have been assembled at the nearby port? They are all ready to leave. ...If you don’t believe it, let’s just wait and see.” Xiao Chen said.
"Haha, maybe Li Wanjiang and Li Feng also expected that you wouldn't dare to do anything to them, right?" Fatty said, "Last time, they all killed us, Yanyun, and you didn't dare to do anything to them."
Xiao Chen was silent.
"If they come, boss, you must not be merciful, otherwise many Yanyun soldiers will definitely die in their hands in the future!" Ibrahimovic's eyes were filled with murderous intent.
"The reason why I don't want to take them with me is that I don't want them to die. If only Li Feng had a better time, he wouldn't send them here. But I see that Li Feng will not shed tears until he sees the coffin, and he will not give up until he sinks into the sea." Xiao Chen Sighing, "So if they insist on seeking death themselves, there is nothing we can do."
There was a hint of compassion in Xiao Chen's eyes.
