The sea breeze blows.
Zhang Sihai's small passenger boat was like a floating grain of sand on the vast sea.
It was almost nightfall, and the sky that was burned red by the rays of light reflected on the sea, swaying with bright red reflections.
This outline outlined in the setting sun is exactly the destination of this small boat, Blood Harbor.
It's a favorable wind. If everything goes well, it will only take them less than two days to reach their destination.
At that time, the silhouette like a grain of rice in the distance will be enlarged into ten thousand ports worthy of a country.
Distance is really a wonderful thing.
Chi Hanyang, dressed in white, was standing in front of the boat, watching the foam on the waves disappear and rise again, as if he was deep in thought.
Zhang Sihai, who was also standing at the bow of the ship, glanced over cautiously from time to time. He wondered what kind of important matter this young man in white, who had great magical powers and had become an official of the imperial court at a young age, was thinking about?
However, this is just unit number 1 on standby.
Fuzzy and Rabbit Legs are also walking around on the deck - this is walking around in a literal sense. The guest rooms on the boat cannot be counted as resurrection points like the rooms in Yihong Tower. During the duration of the event, the player will be offline. It can only be managed, and basically cannot be said to have any combat effectiveness.
Because of this situation, the strength of the alien is greatly reduced, so under normal circumstances, it is not common for the alien to wander around offline, and most of them find a safe place where they can be resurrected to take a rest.
Just when the sunset reflected in Chi Hanyang's eyes was about to dissipate the last ray of fiery red, his body suddenly moved, and his whole expression became lively and casual.
"Ah, the sea——"
Han Dongwen, who stayed in the palace all day long, was naturally shocked by the stunning scenery he saw for the first time after boarding the ship, and planned to recite a poem.
He paused for a moment, and even Zhang Sihai beside him couldn't help but look at him sideways.
It's a pity that Han Dongwen spent a long time searching for ink in his stomach before he realized that Taisuge's cram school was utilitarian, and it really didn't teach him anything about culture.
"It's so big."
He could only sigh in a low voice and looked back at Zhang Sihai:
"Sihai, when can we get to Blood Harbor?"
Zhang Sihai immediately replied: "Tomorrow, if the wind is good, it will be noon tomorrow, if the wind is worse, it will be around dusk tomorrow."
Han Dongwen nodded and asked, "Where is Lu Ren?"
Zhang Sihai didn't say anything, he just raised his hand and pointed to the stairs to the lower level, where the cabin where Lu Ren was imprisoned was.
Regarding the matter of "arresting" Lu Ren, he still felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.
Han Dongwen raised his legs and walked toward the stairs. He glanced sideways at Fuzzy and Rabbit Legs, knowing that they were offline and had no intention of going up to talk.
He felt a little strange.
The fluffy rabbit legs were offline and Zhang Sihai was sailing the ship. According to the order he gave to Unit 1, Unit 1 should be guarding Lu Ren at this time. Why was he on the deck when he boarded the ship?
This question was answered after Han Dongwen went down the stairs and turned the corner.
At the door of the cabin where Lu Ren was imprisoned, two people were standing against the wall with their arms folded. When they saw Han Dongwen coming, they looked up at him in unison.
It's Robert and Xu Garlic.
"How did you..."
Han Dongwen almost subconsciously wanted to ask Xu Garlic why he was not offline yet and was still in the game. He almost asked before he thought of changing his mind.
"Why don't you go find a chair?"
Xu Garlic shrugged: "It doesn't matter, aren't you going to come down and change your shift now?"
Being an anchor is different.
Han Dongwen sighed in his heart and leaned against the wall:
"Can your brothers arrive on time?"
Xu Garlic said nothing and nodded.
"Father Robert, you have been here for a long time, do you need to rest?"
Han Dongwen looked at Robert. Not long before he was still talking to Tantai Fu in the palace, Unit 1 had already used the intelligence he had developed with the girl from Yihonglou in Tianying City to explain what happened to Robert in a blunt manner.
"I'm fine, thank you for your concern."
Robert sighed and looked at the closed door behind him: "Lu rescued me from the cell, I..."
"He broke the law and rescued you from prison." Han Dongwen emphasized the word illegal:
"You could have come out. You were a choir member who was originally arranged by the Grand Duke to enter Simeng to deal with the former Archbishop's undercover. If you had waited for the order and followed the instructions, you should have entered the customs this morning and you would have been treated like a VIP."
He took a step forward and looked at Robert's stunned eyes.
He knew what that look meant.
Ever since the day the names of Robert's colleagues were read out to force him to board the ship, Robert had always had a question stuck in his throat.
How did Chi Shaoxia master such secrets?
Now half of his questions have been answered. Since Chi Shaoxia is the imperial official of Simeng, it is reasonable for him to have confidential information.
Therefore, the shock in his eyes at this moment was the surprise of being seen through.
"Why did you come to Simeng first?"
Han Dongwen and Robert looked at each other, without even the slightest intention of covering up.
Although she didn’t know the reason, Tilda had full trust in the Ashes Choir. If there was a problem, it should be Robert’s own problem, not the entire Ashes Choir.
But Robert rescued the passengers on the boat from the "River God" and did not violently resist arrest or escape from prison in Haizhou.
His code of conduct should be to keep a low profile as his top priority.
Han Dongwen was confident that he would not want to answer this question.
And there is no need to cover up questions that cannot be answered.
Sure enough, Robert raised his eyes and looked into Han Dongwen's eyes, moving his cheeks, thinking he had clenched his teeth.
"Okay, I don't need to ask."
Han Dongwen suddenly smiled and spread his hands: "Not all officials of the imperial court have to be handled by our National Security Department, at least not your Ashin Choir Team."
"ah?"
Robert was stunned for a moment.
"I forced you to board the ship because I knew that tomorrow a high-ranking official from Siyang would arrest you from the prison of Haizhou State Law Department. Since you ran into Simeng first by yourself, you must be one step ahead of your colleagues. If I don't care about you, how can you do anything if you are taken away by Siyang's high officials? Think about it for yourself, whether this is the truth."
After listening to Han Dongwen's words, Robert frowned slightly and started thinking.
After a short period of time, his frown finally relaxed and a smile appeared on his face:
"Well, it seems that is indeed the case, indeed!"
He raised his hand and made a sign of the Catholic Church in front of his forehead, and immediately grabbed Han Dongwen's hands: "Thank you, Mr. Chi, thank you so much!"
"No need."
Han Dongwen smiled and took Robert out of Haizhou. His original plan was just to make Zhong Lilin no one to mention and to expose more of Haizhou's current shady story to the public. However, after talking to Tantai Fu, he suddenly discovered that this People may have other roles.
"Actually, Chi also needs your help on this trip to Blood Harbor."
"You say!"
Robert nodded hastily.
Xu Garan, who was on the side, listened for a long time, and finally came up and interjected: "Yes, Mr. Chi, what are we, the strangers, going to do with you in Blood Harbor?"
Han Dongwen smiled. The answer to this question had already been fairly guaranteed in the previous conversation with Tantai Fu.
"Go to Blood Harbor and make a scene."
——————————
Not long ago, there was a study in the back hall of the palace.
"Shocking?"
Han Dongwen spoke with a tone of surprise and joy.
"yes."
Tantai Fu sat in front of him, with a relaxed posture, as if he was in his own study.
However, Han Dongwen had no intention of pursuing the etiquette of the Commander-in-Chief of the National Army at this time. On the contrary, he finally suppressed the excitement in his heart, took a sip of tea, and pretended to be calm:
"Does the National Military Division really want to reorganize the Jingbu?"
Tantaifu raised his eyes and looked at Han Dongwen, but said nothing.
But this meant that Han Dongwen could continue to ask.
This means that everything is said.
"If the decision is made by the General Director, there may be other voices within the National Military Department, so you came to me."
As Han Dongwen spoke, he pretended to be thinking: "What sect is behind Jingbu?"
Of course it was Daqimen. His ears were almost calloused in the past two days, but he still had to ask this question.
"Haizhou Flag Gate is not worth mentioning." Tantai replied.
A good one is not worth mentioning.
Han Dongwen couldn't help but laugh out loud in his heart.
If it's not a big deal, why do you, the dignified Commander-in-Chief of the National Army, need to be so arrogant?
"That's good, that's good. How do you think it's appropriate?"
But he still asked.
Tan Taifu took a deep breath and said calmly: "If Blood Harbor sends troops, Haizhou will naturally need support."
"Is it really possible for Blood Harbor to send troops?" Han Dongwen looked shocked, as if he was not the one who ordered the burning of the merchant ships of the Three Kingdoms.
"Your Highness, don't worry, but you should really take this into consideration."
Tantaifu leaned forward slightly and tapped the table: "As we call it, preparing for a rainy day, Haizhou does need more people right now."
Han Dongwen immediately nodded and said:
"Ai Qing just mentioned that there are many things that need to be rectified in Jingbu. You might as well take this opportunity to rectify them. It would be best if Blood Harbor is not attacked. If we are attacked, we can be prepared."
"That's exactly what it means."
Tantai smiled again.
How come the Commander-in-Chief of the National Armed Forces is a position that a careless person can occupy?
He agreed to take action against the merchant ships of the Three Kingdoms, which was a plan to kill two birds with one stone. If personal grudges arose in Blood Harbor, Haizhou would be the first to bear the brunt of the attack. And if public anger and national hatred arose in Blood Harbor, and the situation became intense, it would be just right to start with In the name of preparing for war, the banner is raised.
According to Tantai Fu's judgment, it is impossible for a real war to break out - at least not right now. After all, the Emperor of Blood Harbor is at a critical moment.
No matter what, Simeng was able to drag him past the present, seriously injuring the vitality of the current Jingbu and the current Daqimen, or even directly cleaning them up.
The emperor in front of him actually understood half of his plans, which was a good thing.
"So, as long as His Highness issues an imperial edict, the National Military Division will naturally send other troops to reinforce Haizhou and take this opportunity to purge the National Military Division!"
Tantai said solemnly.
In the cabinet, the veteran general Kang Ge was passionate and strict in governing the army, and the young Mingjun followed his advice fluently.
What a moving scene of a wise king and a loyal minister.
"However, if we are to resist the threat of Blood Harbor, do we need the help of the other two departments?"
Han Dongwen asked seemingly casually.
But this question was extremely important. After all, he had just promised Jiang Keyin to let the Department of Justice return to Haizhou.
"No need."
Tantai shook his head.
"good."
Han Dongwen didn't say much, but he already had an idea in his mind.
Tantai's recalculation was very good. He replaced the Jingbu with other members of the National Military Division, preserved his strength, and completed the internal suppression. The premise of all this was that he concluded that there would not be any big reaction in Blood Harbor, no matter what No matter what, they won't start a war immediately when the troops arrive at the city.
But what he didn't know was that a group of Simeng alien gangsters with grievances and an escort boat under the name of Qimen had already headed to Crow Bay far away in Blood Harbor.
