"Pirates? There are thousands of them. Is there any evidence at this time?"
After Lu Qian heard this, he didn't hesitate.
During his last birthday, Lu Qian saw many people overseas.
Although most of these overseas countries are not as good as Daxia.
However, Lu Qian knew very well that he could not rest on his laurels.
Because of Daxia's geographical location, most of Daxia's land borders the ocean.
And Dazhou and Beiliang have Daxia as a shield!
No worries at all.
This is a benefit and a disadvantage.
The advantage is, of course, if you can do business with the outside world.
Then, Daxia's national power will increase dramatically.
Dazhou and Beiliang are not worth mentioning at all.
The disadvantages are also obvious.
That is, once there are foreign intruders, they want to occupy this land.
Then, you can only log in from Daxia.
Daxia must be attacked.
If we wait until they are ready to attack, it will be too late.
The minister who reported the report said, "It's just a conservative estimate! According to the fishermen in Fujian, they have seen a mass of black boats, and at a glance, they can't see the end..."
Lu Qian's expression was not good-looking, and then he said to the minister, "Hurry up and go investigate. Also, Chen Qi, hurry up and send the Tianji Army to Fujian and Zhejiang!"
"It's just a group of pirates, isn't Prime Minister Lu too worried..." Xia Jiuyuan said with a hint of disdain.
Lu Qian looked at Xia Jiuyuan and said, "Your Majesty, you are confused... I suspect that this is just a preliminary test of the situation in our places. Once we have a clear understanding of the situation in these places, if we launch a large-scale attack, our troops will mainly be in the south." There are two countries to the north. We have no power to resist!"
Xia Jiuyuan said with a nonchalant expression, "Those small Southeast Asian countries are not worth mentioning at all... Prime Minister Lu thinks too much..."
Lu Qian ignored them.
Then he said to the Minister of the Ministry of Industry, "Where is the Minister of the Ministry of Industry?"
A man with a Chinese character came out.
Lu Qian also had an image of this minister of the Ministry of Industry. His name was Lu Liang.
When I was making revolvers before, I asked him to do it.
This man is an honest man and has no evil intentions.
Made by Kuai.
It was only at his wedding banquet that Lu Qian found out that he and the two brothers Tong Wenshan and Tong Wensen were actually close friends...
However, if you think about it carefully, it's not surprising.
Because of him, the group studied manufacturing, and he was able to survive the disputes in the court.
"If I ask you to build some ships, how long will it take your Ministry of Industry to build them?" Lu Qian asked Lu Liang.
Lu Liang was slightly startled, "If it were an ordinary fishing boat, it would take just a few days..."
"What I want is a high-rise ship that can plant one or two thousand men, an offensive stern ship, and a fighting ship!" Lu Qian said to Lu Liang.
Lu Liang looked at Lu Qian in confusion and said, "Mr. Lu, what are you talking about..."
"After you retire from the court, come to my house and I will have a detailed discussion with you." Lu Qian said to Lu Liang.
Lu Liang nodded after listening.
There was nothing else to do in the morning, so Lu Qian resigned.
Chen Qi and Liu Shiqing said to Lu Qian, "Master, are you overreacting... They are just some pirates!"
Lu Qian narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "I hope so. However, it is imperative to develop the navy! Our enemies have never been Dazhou and Beiliang..."
Looking at the puzzled expressions on the two people's faces, Lu Qian said to them, "You will know later..."
"Then what should we do on the border with Zhou after we have mobilized all the troops?" Chen Qi asked Lu Qian.
Lu Qian pondered for a moment, then said, "To deal with the Great Zhou, leaving a hundred thousand Tianji troops is enough..."
After saying that, Lu Qian hurried back.
Xia Jiuyuan said to Gao Weixin, "Gao Weixin, have you seen... this eunuch, after all, he is an eunuch... The slightest disturbance can scare him like that. Just a few pirates... not worth mentioning at all." ..”
Gao Weixin smiled and nodded in agreement.
"Let's go to Jingyang Palace..." Xia Jiuyuan said to Gao Weixin with a smile.
After arriving at Jingyang Palace.
Concubine Hua was very respectful to Xia Jiuyuan.
This made Xia Jiuyuan very useful.
Lying on a rocking chair, Concubine Hua rubbed Xia Jiuyuan's head and asked tentatively, "Your Majesty, that eunuch didn't bully you in the court?"
Xia Jiuyuan snorted coldly and told Concubine Hua about what happened in the court.
Normally, Xia Jiuyuan would never tell Concubine Hua these things.
However, now, apart from Gao Weixin, there is no one around him who can speak.
Xia Jiuyuan talked about pirates.
Concubine Hua was suddenly startled, with some secret joy on her face, and said to Xia Jiuyuan, "Your Majesty, are the pirates you mentioned coming from Japan?"
Xia Jiuyuan shook his head and said, "I don't know, even if it's not from Japan, it's from Nanyang. Didn't you say that before? After Ning Ping married to Japan, was Japan a place where birds don't shit? Are we still afraid of them? "
Concubine Hua nodded in agreement, with unconcealable happiness on her face, and said to Xia Jiuyuan, "Your Majesty, God is really helping us! Those pirates...maybe...maybe they are Mr. Ningping's army?"
After listening to Concubine Hua's words, Xia Jiuyuan sat up from the recliner.
"What? Is it Mr. Ningping's army?" Xia Jiuyuan asked curiously.
Concubine Hua nodded repeatedly and then said, "Yes, I received a letter from Ning Ping from the Japanese country a month ago... Ning Ping said that his husband, Takeda Ori, had unified the Japanese country with her help. ! And they said they would come to pay homage to His Majesty! It is said that they will bring their navy with them for safety. It is said that many people are coming... If it is really them, Your Majesty, we will be saved!"
Concubine Hua's words are also half true and false.
More than two months ago, he did receive a letter from Ning Ping.
In the letter, Ning Ping told Concubine Hua
Takeda Oriya did unify Japan with the help of her dowry.
Ningping knew that their Jingyang Palace was behind Daxia.
Ningping encouraged Takedaori and asked Takedaori to unite with the small countries nearby in Nanyang to attack to plunder Daxia's property.
Takeda Ori also agreed.
However, they didn't know much about Daxia, so they needed Concubine Hua to send her a good map of Daxia's territory. This is the treasure of the Huo family. Huo Xiaolin had been fighting everywhere and drawing maps of various parts of Daxia.
Ningping promised Concubine Hua that as long as they came over, he would take them to the Japanese country.
One day, Takeda Zhi captured Daxia and made Xia Xingbang the emperor.
Of course Concubine Hua believed it. After receiving the reply, she sent someone the map of Daxia.
But since then, there has been no news.
Now after hearing Xia Jiuyuan's words, he has rekindled hope...
Of course, he would never dare to tell the truth to Xia Jiuyuan.
He also knew that Xia Jiuyuan was being ignored now, so he lied to him.
The best emperor master
