The people who have arrived in Yizhou are all rushing to the island for money and silk. They are so focused on finding wealth that they have completely forgotten that there are many potential dangers on the island!
This gave those natives the opportunity to attack the common people!
After the garrison discovered this incident, they must have eliminated the indigenous people near the incident site and gathered the people together.
What Ying Feiyu is worried about now is the people who are scattered all over Yizhou without knowing it and blindly looking for wealth!
"I think this method is feasible, Prince!"
"I second the proposal! Let General Han go to Yizhou, which will waste people and money. In a few months, the court will have to send troops to guard it. It is better to adopt the suggestion of His Highness the Crown Prince and let the island garrison gather the people together first to ensure the safety of the people and wait for the reinforcements to arrive. , it’s not too late to deal with those natives!”
"Yes, yes, I also second the proposal...!"
As soon as Ying Feiyu finished speaking, he received unanimous approval from the courtiers.
The minister who had previously suggested that Han Xin go for reinforcements also stopped talking!
Indeed, as Ying Feiyu said, if Han Xin were to take over now and go back to attack Erzhou again, a lot of energy and ammunition would be wasted!
"Okay! That's it. Send a telegram to the garrison in Yizhou immediately and ask them to gather all the people in Yizhou together first. Don't let this happen again!"
After it was confirmed, Ying Zheng immediately gave the order.
"yes!"
The soldiers outside Qilin Hall accepted the order and went to do it quickly.
"Choose 50,000 people from the navy, another 50,000 from the camp, and a hundred thousand troops to go to Yizhou together! I still don't believe it, we can't defeat those natives!"
"If you dare to bully our people of Great Qin, I will pay with their blood!"
Ying Zheng clenched his fists loudly.
"Zhang Han, raise the food and fodder for a hundred thousand troops as soon as possible and set off at any time!"
"yes!"
Zhang Han immediately handed over his hand.
Now that the autumn harvest has just been completed, there is not much else in the treasury, but a lot of food!
"Feiyu, how's it going at the arsenal? Is there still enough ammunition?"
The arsenal has always been managed by Ying Feiyu, so you have to ask him about the ammunition situation.
"Father, don't worry, the arsenal is always operating normally, and the ammunition reserves are increasing day by day. It's easy to deal with a native!"
Ying Feiyu smiled lightly.
"That's good!"
After everything was arranged, Ying Zheng felt at ease.
"Father, those natives make a living by picking wild fruits and hunting, and they are very strong. As long as they don't resist too strongly, I suggest that we mainly take prisoners and let them build the railway for our Great Qin!"
"Yeah! What a great idea!"
Ying Zheng nodded repeatedly.
If Daqin had not had those prisoners of war, the progress of railway construction would not have been so fast!
After a while, the soldiers who went to send a telegram came back and said, "Your Majesty, we have received a reply from Yizhou, saying that most of the troops have been sent out to look for the people and strive to gather the people in the shortest possible time!"
"good!"
Ying Zheng nodded clearly.
"Then this matter is settled. Fei Yu, Wang Bi, Zhang Han, Meng Tian and others will go to the Imperial Study Room to discuss the details. If nothing happens to the others, they can leave the court!"
Ying Zheng waved his hand and issued the order.
"Your Majesty, please leave!"
Although he did not name everyone, the ministers also knew that he was referring to the close ministers of the three provinces and six ministries.
There was nothing wrong with them, so they hurriedly fled to see if they could get any news from the side, whether the ships and people who suffered losses were from their families!
…
In the Imperial Study Room, Ying Zheng discussed in detail with everyone the time and route of the expedition, the amount of food, grass and weapons to be carried, as well as the time and distribution of the garrison.
After discussing all this, it was almost nightfall.
The old guys were detained in the palace for a day, and the family was very anxious!
I usually go back before noon, but today I didn't see anyone until the evening.
So I sent several groups of people to inquire, and I was relieved to learn that the matter had been discussed!
By the end of the meeting, the veterans were already hungry.
Apart from a few cups of tea during the period, they didn’t even get any pastries!
In fact, even if there were, in this tense atmosphere, they would not dare to eat it!
joke!
The emperor and the prince didn't even say they were hungry. How dare you ask for something to eat?
Fortunately, I was highly focused before, and my brain was always running fast, never idle, and able to distract myself!
Now that the main things have been discussed, everyone is holding their stomachs and looking bitter!
"Come here, let's have a banquet!"
After the matter was discussed, Ying Zheng seemed to be in a much better mood. Seeing what the old guys were thinking, he immediately waved his hand and ordered a banquet.
It is very rare to be able to have a banquet in the palace, and the old guys immediately became energetic!
"Thank you, Your Majesty...!"
The old guys quickly handed over their hands and thanked them.
"Well! It's been a tiring day. Let's fill our stomachs first before going back home. Otherwise, if the news spreads, no one will say that I am harsh? I will keep you in the palace for a whole day and not even let you eat a full meal!"
Ying Zheng looked at Zhang Han with a smile in his eyes.
Among these ministers, no one would complain, except Zhang Han's shrewish wife.
She is very arrogant and dares to say anything!
Even though she often bullies Zhang Han, that was limited to her bullying!
If it were anyone else, would you try?
That is absolutely not possible!
Even if it's His Majesty, she doesn't dare to do anything, so she still has to go outside and say something!
"Your Majesty is serious. I, as a minister, will be able to take care of the court's salary and help solve the problems for the court!"
Zhang Han understood who was speaking and raised his hands in fear.
"Okay, okay, it's been a tiring day, so don't give me any more salutes!"
In fact, not only were they tired, Ying Zheng was also very tired and wanted to relax at this moment.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Zhang Han then put down his hands and sat back in his seat.
Within a quarter of an hour, the waiter who went down to give orders came back and said that the banquet was ready!
This speed made several old guys sigh with emotion.
The cooks in the palace are just extraordinary and their work efficiency is too high.
If you order a banquet here, it will be ready in a matter of seconds!
If it were their mansion, if they wanted to treat people to a decent meal, it wouldn't take an hour!
As everyone knows, the royal chefs saw that His Majesty did not pass on the meals all day long and kept the ingredients ready.
As long as there is an order from there, it will be done immediately.
I never dare to extinguish the fire under the stove, for fear of rekindling it and wasting time!
"Okay, got it!"
Ying Zheng nodded slightly and led everyone to Huayang Palace.
For the royal banquet in the palace, the noodles must be well prepared!
Regardless of the dishes, they are all made of blue and white porcelain, and the workmanship and color are very particular!
The ingredients used are also of the highest quality!
Compared with the mansions of a few old guys, it must be a place in the sky and a place on the ground!
But compared with His Highness the Crown Prince's craftsmanship, it's still a bit inferior!
It’s just about the ingredients and tableware!
