When the cup of wine was finished, all the troops cheered with water instead of wine.
Zhang Kuang put away the wine glass in his hand, and the confused look in his eyes gradually disappeared, replaced by an old and vigorous attitude.
"Jiang He, after talking so much, you still haven't said why you are in Yemen!
Weren't you ordered to inspect all the countries in the West? How did you end up on this land covered with yellow sand? "
An Gouer hung the wine bag on his waist and raised his hand in the direction of Reda City, the Yemeni border gate behind him.
"About twenty miles behind you is Reda City, a border town of Yemen, and Yemen is one of the Western countries that I visited and made friends with.
Nine days ago, the King of Yemen, Sana'a, asked to see the junior at the port of Adens. Later, in the castle, he told the junior... The junior agreed to Sana's request because he was curious about this invincible and invincible demon army.
It's just that the child never expected that the demon army attacking the Dashi Kingdom turned out to be the imperial army led by you and your seniors.
Thousands of miles away from the ocean, the younger generation never imagined that they would reunite with their relatives and friends in such a scene. "
Zhang Kuang stroked his beard and nodded clearly: "So that's the reason. No wonder when I first heard about the country of Yemen, I always thought it sounded familiar, but I couldn't remember where I heard it.
It turned out to be one of the Western countries that followed our dragon fleet back to Beijing to worship.
The world is so big and yet so small.
After wandering around, I never expected to meet you in Yemen. "
An Gouer nodded in agreement and exhaled sadly.
"Yes, the world is so big and yet so small.
Fortunately, the younger generation agreed to the request of the King of Yemen out of curiosity, otherwise you don’t know how many years and months it would have taken to see your uncle. "
"If you go by what you said, the Yemeni king of Sana'a doesn't seem to have any good intentions. He obviously wants to drive away the wolf and replace him in the name of helping his brother-in-law, the food king."
"As expected, my uncle has a keen eye and revealed the secret in just one word.
Sana is not a kind person.
The child agreed to his request, firstly because he was curious about the identity of the demon army, and secondly because he wanted to help it and make it consume internally.
When we look towards the Western countries in the future, we will have fewer powerful enemies and troubles.
But now it seems that there is no need to wait until that day.
Now that the Dashi Kingdom has been conquered by our great dragon soldiers, how can the Sanapifs and their like be able to get involved? "
Zhang Kuang smiled lightly and nodded: "I didn't expect that the identities of the old man and the soldiers were translated into the Kingdom of Yemen through the words of the Dashi Kingdom, and they turned out to be an army of hell from the netherworld.
And I accidentally attracted you, the chief military officer of the Great Dragon Patrol. I can only say that there is God's will in the dark! "
"Yes, there is God's will in the dark.
By the way, uncle, you just said that your eldest brother has secretly instructed your Western Expedition Army to continue the Western Expedition.
Since the country of Great Food can lead to the country of Yemen, one of the Western countries, as the saying goes, it is connected to all countries. If you want to travel to the far west, you may also have one of the Western countries that your child will make friends with. "
Zhang Kuang frowned and was silent for a while, then nodded thoughtfully: "According to what you said, it's very possible.
On the eve of the expedition, we wanted to take the map of all the nations in the imperial study with us.
Later, when I thought about it, His Majesty said more than once that the map was just drawn based on hearsay from various sources.
If you rely on that map as the main route of march, it may cause the army soldiers to lose their way.
It is more appropriate to let the soldiers and horses of the Western Region Kingdom and the caravan guards who have been to the barbarian territories of the two countries lead the way. The map that enters the barbarian territory and seizes them is more reliable than our map that has no real basis.
We didn’t bring the world map with us.
Now that I think about it, if we take it with us and head west based on the general topography on the map, even if we don't encounter it in Yemen, we might encounter it accidentally in other barbarian countries. "
As the two talked, their eyes couldn't help but look at each other. They looked at each other blankly for a moment, and then they turned around and walked towards their respective horses.
After a while, the two maps were laid out on the yellow sand. The two squatted on the ground and looked at each other's maps.
“I visited Luofanjia Port in the Zhu Kingdom four months ago, but I didn’t expect it to be a vassal state of the Tianzhu Kingdom.
The child has really never paid attention to this aspect before. "
"Is this country where the sun never sets where you massacred the city?"
"That's right, the officers and soldiers of the fleet of the Kingdom of the Sun Never Sets robbed our soldiers who went to exchange for fresh water, and even caused many soldiers to die unexpectedly. The boy was so angry that he led the fleet to the Kingdom of the Sun Never Sets."
"The sun never sets, and to the west is the vast ocean?"
"It seems so. The farthest distance our dragon fleet can sail is this country where the sun never sets."
"If it is really clear, then this country should be the edge of the land.
If this is the case, our army has found a target in this western expedition. "
An Gouer's eyes slid along the crazy map with his finger for a long time: "Uncle, do you want to march westward along the Kingdom of Egypt or the New Kingdom of Rome to the Kingdom where the sun never sets?"
Zhang Kuang stood up slowly, took off the tobacco bag from his waist, lit it with a fire stick and took a few puffs.
"It depends on the opportunity. There is a place where the army is recording things. It's hard for an unknown master to act rashly.
We have to find some excuse to get people from these small barbarian countries to come to our door, so that we can make a name for ourselves. "
"Hey, if you ask me, it doesn't matter who records things with the army or not, if you want to fight, fight. How can there be so many unknown divisions or famous divisions?
If they are of the same mind, they are good brothers who are as close as brothers. If they are not of the same mind, they are thousands of miles away from the capital. It is normal for a few people to die because of the acclimatization.
Even soft knives can kill people. "
He shook his head arrogantly and solemnly, looked around at the soldiers wandering around and approached An Gouer.
"Let me tell you from the bottom of our hearts that this should never be the case.
You and I both know how His Majesty obtained the throne, and it has left countless criticisms among the people.
Nowadays, because the people live and work in peace and contentment, the country is peaceful and the people are safe, the reputation has improved a lot.
Those of us who are ministers should not discredit him if we can.
A history book is just a book.
But it can kill people.
We, the heavenly dynasty, are a land of etiquette and have always paid attention to well-established rules.
The world is like this, even though you and I are leading the army.
It is also inevitable!
It's not a bad idea to kill a few people accompanying the army to record things, but hundreds of thousands of soldiers are not dumb.
Word of mouth quickly spreads out, and after being exploited by someone with ulterior motives, our government will bring chaos to the world.
Don't be careless about things that can affect your whole body at a moment's notice! "
"But I think it's too humiliating and cowardly to be afraid of wolves in front and tigers in the back. I'm so hot-blooded..."
"Jiang He, don't forget that today's leader is your eldest brother Liu Mingzhi.
Let me tell you something you don’t like to hear. He gained power because of his soldiers. Do you also want to gain power because of his soldiers? "
"I-I...brother is not such a small-minded person!"
"I have dealt with him for many years, and I know his personality better than you do.
Of course he won't, but you have to understand the principle of one emperor and one minister.
Therefore, you and I who lead the army should be more cautious.
It is true that you will not accept your orders, but your orders cannot be violated!
We can only do some things that He asks us to do, and we can't touch anything that He doesn't let us do.
Because you don’t know whether the successor can be as magnanimous as he is to tolerate the world!
We old bones are not afraid, but you are still young!
The trees that are beautiful in the forest will be destroyed by the wind! "
"I... my child will obey your instructions!"
Zhang Kuang looked at An Gou'er being taught and nodded with satisfaction.
"Stop talking about this, you just said that you saw the Big Food King and his team a day and a half ago?"
"Yes, it's just outside the gate of Amran City. I can't guarantee whether it is or not.
But judging by the time, it should be their car! "
"Great, I hope the King of Yemen will not interfere when I capture Mohammed Mader!"
"Don't worry, uncle, if he dares to frown, my name will be wiped off the map of Yemen immediately!"
