After listening to his benefactor's question, Yang Youcheng did not hesitate and said bluntly: "Yes, the number of Japanese pirates running rampant will increase."
Listening to Yang Youcheng's answer, Su Yunqi said his own thoughts: "Because of this, I don't know whether it is better to remove the sea ban or not."
Seeing his benefactor Su Yunqi in a dilemma, Yang Youcheng continued: "My benefactor, compared with the increase in the number of Japanese pirates, the student thinks it is better to lift the sea ban. This will be good for the people along the coast and the merchants of Damo. Although the Japanese pirates are It’s a bit more, but compared to those sharp ends, this method is really suitable.”
Seeing that Yang Youcheng agreed with this method, Su Yunqi said the first method that Ding Yongchang of Ding Mansion just said: "Ding Liu's second son also said another method just now, but this method was rejected by me. Yes. He said he wanted me to borrow some money and food from Wan Kingdom to control the locust plague, and then I would pay it back when we have enough money and food after the difficulties in Da Mo are over. I rejected this idea, what do you think?"
"Students also think that this method is not feasible. Borrowing money and food from a small country like Wan to use for our dynasty's locust plague will really affect our dynasty's reputation." Yang Youcheng replied.
It seems that Yang Youcheng, the right prime minister, and Su Yunqi, the left prime minister, sometimes have very good ideas.
The two were silent for a while, and then Su Yunqi hurriedly told what Ding Liu's second son Ding Yongchang said when he was in Ding Mansion: "Ding Liu's second son told me about the Japanese pirates when we were in Ding Mansion. He said that additional troops could be sent to coastal prefectures and counties to guard Haikou, docks, etc."
Before Left Prime Minister Su Yunqi finished speaking, Right Prime Minister Yang Youcheng agreed and said: "This is a good method."
"I thought it was good at the time, but thinking about the soldiers who had no money or food, who would be willing to do it? Thinking about my current national strength, I asked him, how to solve the food and salary issue? He said, when we get to the coast, There will always be no shortage of sea fish, sea shrimp and other food in a large sea area, and it is said that the soldiers can fill their stomachs with these first."
After listening, Yang Youcheng agreed very much and said: "The student thinks this method is indeed a good method, so it is not a bad idea."
"Do you think it's appropriate to send those people?" Left Prime Minister Su Yunqi asked.
Right Prime Minister Yang Youcheng shook his head slightly, looked at his benefactor Su Yunqi, and said, "What do you think, my benefactor?"
After Yang Youcheng thought for a moment, he said: "The main forces of these three provinces cannot be used. Qi State's ambitions are very strong. As for when they will act, it is not something you and I can guess. The only ones that can be used are local soldiers and the governor's soldiers."
When Su Yunqi said this, Yang Youcheng nodded slightly in approval and said, "What your grace said makes sense. Why don't you think about it carefully for a few days? If you are really not sure, then discuss it with the civil and military ministers."
"Okay." Su Yunqi responded.
Seeing that it was already getting late, Yang Youcheng asked, "Does my benefactor have any other important matters?"
Su Yunqi shook his head.
Looking at the sky outside the window, Yang Youcheng said: "It's getting late now, so...students should go back first?"
"Okay." After agreeing, Su Yunqi, the left prime minister, shouted towards the door: "Lu Huan! Lu Huan!"
After shouting twice, I saw the housekeeper Lu Huan running towards the study in a hurry.
"Master, what do you want me to do?" asked the steward Lu Huan.
"Send off to your right minister," Master Su Yunqi replied.
"Okay." After agreeing, housekeeper Lu Huan saw off Right Minister Yang Youcheng and walked out.

Seeing the people leaving, the study became quiet again. Su Yunqi sat alone in front of the desk. There was a map spread on the desk. Su Yunqi's eyes were always looking at the map. As for thinking about it, What it is, no one knows.
At night, gusts of cool wind blew through Yanyang City, making a water city like Yanyang City cool again.
Outside Yanyang City, there is a circle of artificially dug rivers. These rivers are like spider webs. This artificially dug river is connected to the original rivers and small rivers, which makes it easier for merchants to come and go.
In the night, the sounds of toads outside Yanyang City merged with the calls of various small animals. If you can taste it, it seems to be a rare kind of music. On the contrary, it seems to be the sound of sleeping people. The sound of disgust.
Stars are piled together in the sky of Yanyang City today. These stars are very bright under the light of other stars. In addition, the moon is still very bright today, bringing light to the waterway outside Yanyang City. It makes the whole river bank and small river bank a little brighter, and makes the sight of punting boatmen a little clearer.
However, on such a night, for some reason, the master of the Su Mansion, Su Yunqi, seemed not to be sleepy at all.
Perhaps it was because of the noisy toad that Su Yunqi, the left prime minister, was resting.
Seeing that, Su Yunqi tossed and turned, then stood up, walked to a wooden table, picked up the tea cup and took a sip. After drinking, Su Yunqi walked to the window and looked out at the night outside the window for a long time.
The moon is very bright today, and the scenery outside the window is extremely beautiful under the moonlight.
I don't know if this scene attracted Su Yunqi, the left prime minister, or something else. Su Yunqi stared at it for several hours. It wasn't until an unknown time that Su Yunqi returned to the bed and continued to fall asleep. . .
A few days later, when He Yuhong and the others arrived at Yishifu City, it was already dark.
However, they were not far from Yishifu City and were reluctant to stop and have a good sleep. Instead, they chose to speed up and headed towards Yishifu City.
"Brothers! Hurry up! We'll be there soon!" He Yuhong said encouraging words.
Along the way, He Yuhong rode a horse all the way and walked all the way. In short, when he was tired from riding, he would get down and walk a few steps, and then get back on the horse again when he was tired.
But Zheng Zhui was different. He was riding on a horse all the way and refused to get down and take a few steps. He didn't feel tired at all, but he didn't know how tired the horse was?
After hearing He Yuhong's shouts, these brothers, who were already tired from the journey, cheered up again, and their faces showed a bit of joy.
Looking at the horse Zheng Zhui is riding, it seems that the horse is also showing some joy.
Finally, not long after walking, He Yuhong and his team of dozens of people finally arrived outside Yishifu City.
I saw that there were brothers guarding the city gates, and the gates of several city gates were closed.
Under the darkness of the night, their faces could not be seen, only their silhouettes could be seen.
Similarly, the brothers guarding the city gate could not clearly see the faces of He Yuhong and others outside the city, so they shouted: "Who is outside the city?"
Listening to the shouting, Ho Yuhong shouted: "It's us! One of our own!"
After listening to this shout, the brothers at the city gate carefully confirmed the shout, for fear that there was something unknown outside the city.

man of.
After a while, He Yuhong and the others heard a cry again.
"Come closer and take a look!"
Hearing this shout, Zheng Chui, who was riding a horse at the side, looked at He Yuhong and asked, "Brother Yuhong, don't they recognize us?"
Hearing Zheng Chui's words, He Yuhong was not sure. He shook his head slightly and said, "It's normal to be a little wary." After speaking, He Yuhong looked at the brothers behind him and said: " Brothers, let’s take a few steps forward!”
At this time, He Yuhong and the others took a few steps forward.
The brothers on the city gate were holding torches in their hands, and they were all looking carefully to see if the people outside the city were their brothers. Fortunately, under the light of the torches, the general appearance of each face could still be seen. .
After reaching a consensus, a brother on the tower shouted to the brothers outside the city: "Open the door! One of our own!"
After hearing the order from above, the brothers guarding the city gate hurriedly opened the city gate.
Looking at the open city gate, He Yuhong had a smile on his face.
After entering the city, He Yuhong thought of his father, and asked a brother by the city gate: "How are you, have you found my father and the others?"
The brother shook his head: "We haven't found it yet."
After hearing this, He Yuhong's smiling face dropped a bit, and he led the brothers towards the government office.
Knowing that He Yuhong and the others were coming, a brother hurriedly ran in front of He Yuhong and the others to the government office and reported the letter first.
"Leader! Lead! General He and General Zheng are here!" The brothers shouted several times.
After hearing the sound, Chun Xu and Lin Xubai, who had been asleep for a long time, both stood up, put on their clothes, and walked out quickly.
Looking at this brother with a smile on his face, Chunxu asked: "Are you here?"
The brothers nodded and responded: "We're here."
Just when Chunxu was still thinking about asking a few more questions, He Yuhong, Zheng Chui and the others had already arrived outside the government office.
After seeing their shadows, Chunxu, He Yuhong and several others walked towards the door of the government office together.
After meeting each other and looking at Zheng Chui's figure, Chunxu smiled: "I said, Zheng Chui, you are not thin at all. I thought you lost weight after fighting."
Hearing Chunxu's words, Zheng Zhui smiled slightly and didn't know what to say.
He Yuhong on the side saw two strangers in front of him and asked: "Are they...?"
Seeing that He Yuhong and the others didn't know yet, Chunxu introduced them first: "This is Song Yangbing and this is Feng Zishi. They surrendered to us during the last battle. From now on, we are our own." .”
After hearing this, He Yuhong understood. Looking at the brothers behind him, He Yuhong felt a little guilty: "I'm sorry, brother Chunxu. It's all my fault for being incompetent and failing to let more brothers survive."
Seeing He Yuhong's self-reproaching look, and then looking at the fatigue shown on each of their faces, Chunxu smiled slightly and said: "It's okay. There are always casualties in wars." After saying that, look at the sky, Chunxu again He said: "It's getting very late. Look at you. You came here in the middle of the night and you woke up again not long after you fell asleep."
