"Sun Li pays homage to the Prime Minister of Zhizhou and the Prime Minister of Tongjian!"
After Sun Li landed ashore, the first thing he did was to visit Wang Shizhong and Zongze. Qinbei Pavilion
"Sun Tiha is indeed a talented general, but he inflicted heavy casualties on the thieves with just one move, and then he fought back with the whole army, good, good!"
Wang Shizhong laughed and patted Sun Li on the shoulder.
"They all give good guidance to the state magistrate and the general judge."
Sun Li smiled and said modestly.
"Let's go, a celebration banquet has been held in the city!"
Wang Shizhong smiled and greeted Sun Li and others to enter the city. Today, there was a large flow of flowing water mats in the city. What they wanted was momentum.
Wang Shizhong rode proudly at the front of the team, receiving the admiration of the people in the city! The depression during this period was finally gone.
"Sun Tiha, what's going on with the thief?"
Zongze didn't care about those nicknames, but asked about the details.
Before Sun Li could speak, the Paijun and Yuhou who followed him had already started talking, each one arguing about how fierce the battle was and how brave they were in killing the enemy.
Sun Li couldn't get in the conversation at all, and these people wouldn't give Sun Li a chance to speak. If Sun Li told the truth, what credit would they have to gain?
Sun Li was very happy to have such people talk and add jealousy to the description, which saved him from having to think about how to make it up.
Zongze frowned as he listened to those people talking nonsense. It was not easy for him to interrupt and refute at this festive time, so he could only let them talk. However, after analyzing those words, he could also draw some conclusions. It was indeed a big victory. , burning more than a dozen enemy ships in a sneak attack.
Zongze nodded repeatedly after hearing this. Being able to destroy more than a dozen enemy warships at one time was considered a great victory. The most important ordnance on the sea is the warship. Without a ship, no matter how many people there are, it is useless.
Everyone walked along the road to the government office, and the banquet was placed all the way from the government office to the main street.
"So most of the thief's ship was burned down? Now he is trapped on Salmon Island?"
Zongze looked at Sun Li and confirmed.
"It should be like this. Most of the ships in the port have been burned. Even those that were not completely destroyed were also seriously damaged."
Sun Li said.
"In that case, let's go there again tonight and take advantage of his illness to kill him!"
Zongze said coldly.
"Mr. Tongjian, the general will lead the troops!"
Sun Li cupped his fists.
"No, I'll go with you and go directly to Salmon Island to fight!"
Zongze said, he was not sure how many of the thieves' ships were intact. The thieves were very powerful in water combat, so he had to avoid their sharp edges and resolve the battle on land.
"Mr. Tongsuan, this is too dangerous, it's better for you to go!"
Sun Li hurriedly persuaded, but he was already happy because what he wanted was Zong Ze's idea.
"I've made up my mind, I'll go tonight!"
Zongze shook his head and said, this is the best opportunity. If the thieves are given a chance to breathe, the future war will be full of uncertainty.
…
Salmon Island.
"Brother, this battle is big enough. There are more than a dozen big ships. If you want to buy this, you can't buy one without two thousand guan!"
Xu Guanzhong said while looking at the messy dock.
"Anyway, it was captured. If it is destroyed, it will be destroyed."
Sun Lei said nonchalantly, these were all merchant ships brought to sea by Hu Yanqing. He didn't spend a penny on them, and he didn't feel bad if they were destroyed.
"Military advisor, when do you think Zongze will be fooled?"
Sun Lei looked at the ships and asked if Xu Guanzhong had arrived.
"It won't be long, just these two days. If I don't come, I probably won't come."
Xu Guanzhong said, Sun Li had just finished his sneak attack and was now at his weakest. If Zongze hadn't been fooled, he probably wouldn't have been fooled.
"I hope he will come, I don't want to go to Dengzhou now!"
Sun Lei said that the current military strength was not enough to attack Dengzhou, and he was not prepared to reveal his identity prematurely.
Dengzhou City.
The banquet was extremely lively, and Sun Li, who was the greatest hero, was naturally the target of congratulations. Officials of all sizes in the city, as well as major family chambers of commerce, all came to invite Sun Li to drink.
Sun Li knew very well what these people were thinking. The officials knew that they would be promoted for their meritorious service, so they wanted to curry favor with him. Those big families and chambers of commerce hope to have a good relationship and take care of themselves more at sea in the future.
Sun Li did not refuse anyone who came, and he warmly called everyone a brother and had three bowls of it. Everyone praised Sun Li for his generosity. Sun Li pretended to be exasperated and raised his eyebrows, and his laughter gradually became a little louder. He started to brag with his tongue.
The more Sun Li boasted, the more powerful he became. Because of his excellent martial arts skills, one man can stand a test, and ten thousand men can't stop him. After hearing that his ancestor had been a high official in Qiongzhou and had conquered the barbarians in the mountains, and that he himself was also a famous general, everyone naturally smiled, praised and toasted him.
This made Zongze on the side frown. Sun Li would definitely get drunk after drinking like this. But now Zongze couldn't help but come forward to dissuade him. Sun Li was already surrounded by people, and he could only watch Sun Li drink.
Only halfway through the banquet, Sun Li was already drunk and unconscious, and was helped home.
"Lord Tongpan, I'm afraid Sun Tiha won't be able to wake up tonight."
A soldier said to Zongze.
"After all, you are too young, and you can't hold yourself back after making some achievements."
Zongze sighed and said, he was originally very optimistic about Sun Li, but now it seems that Sun Li is just like ordinary generals, simple-minded, and he doesn't know what is going on when he flatters him too much.
"Tell the soldiers to set off as usual tonight!"
Zongze looked at the soldiers and ordered them to arrive. Sun Li could not go. He had to go and give the thieves a fatal blow tonight.
"Should I talk to the governor about this matter?"
The soldier looked at Zongze and said, "The use of troops and horses is a big deal, and it cannot be done without the approval of Master Wang."
"I'm going right away!"
Zongze got up and went to the back hall of the government office.
"You want to lead troops to sneak attack on the enemy? The enemy suffered a heavy loss last night. They must be prepared today. This trip will be extremely dangerous!"
Wang Shizhong didn't agree. Going at this time would mean death.
"Soldiers never tire of deceit, they use falsehoods to be real, and realism is false! Last night the thieves were attacked by surprise, and they will definitely be tired during the day. I will land directly at night to fight. If everything goes well, we can win the battle!"
Zongze said, this risk must be taken.
"Well, I won't stop you if you want to go. I hope you will succeed!"
Wang Shizhong thought for a long time, and then he made sense. What Zongze said made sense. Sun Li was able to successfully attack last night, so there shouldn't be any big problem if Zongze goes there tonight. Even if the sneak attack fails, now that the thieves' warship is damaged, there is no problem in escaping back.
Zongze clasped his fists, turned around and went to the dock, where five hundred elites were already waiting. In the dark, Zongze got on the boat and led the army towards Salmon Island.
Sun Li's mansion.
Sun Li, who was drunk, woke up leisurely and looked at the bright moon hanging high in the sky, feeling a little complicated.
"Have a good trip, Mr. Tongxuan!"
Sun Li sighed and said, he knew that Zongze would never come back.
"Why are you up, officer? Do you want some water?"
Madam Lejia asked quickly when she saw Sun Li sitting up.
"Bring me a cup of hot tea!"
Sun Li nodded.
The happy lady came over with hot tea and poured a large cup for Sun Li.
"Send someone to the government office tomorrow morning to ask for leave for me, saying I'm too drunk to wake up!"
Sun Li took a sip of tea before speaking. Wang Shizhong would definitely investigate Zongze if something happened to him. He had to find a good excuse first. It was common knowledge that he was drunk, so there was no doubt about him.
