Now the eleven sea ships in Annan Kingdom are all in good condition. Plus more than 12,000 sailors, not to mention taking turns rowing. The speed is so-so after all. It is estimated that in two months, we can almost reach the Liaodong Bureau.
Fortunately, there is still time, it is already the end of July. I arrived at the Liaodong Bureau normally, at the end of September or the beginning of October. If the fleet were as fast as it used to be, they might not be able to arrive in three months.
Jia Tanchun admired Li Miao's five-day renovation of Weizhou Island. It turns out that my man is so powerful. However, he had some objections to the subsequent removal of sea-going ships and allowing sailors to row continuously. Isn't it good to sail slowly?
Li Miao's management ability also increased dramatically after taking Wang Xifeng's spice fruit. Now I am full of expectations for Jia Tanchun’s spiced fruits. Now that Li Miao is practicing with Jia Tanchun all day long, it is estimated that the ripening of spices and fruits will be accelerated a lot.
Another incident happened during this period, Hu Zhiwei, the national teacher of Annan Kingdom. This was the main member of the preaching team at that time. Hu Zhiwei found Li Miao alone. He also swore a blood oath to be loyal to Li Miao for life. Of course that includes his family.
Hu Zhiwei's family is the second largest family in Annan Kingdom. The largest family is the family where the Barbarian King belongs. It stands to reason that the Barbarian King is unlikely to appoint Hu Zhiwei from the second largest family as the national advisor.
But Hu Zhiwei has a high reputation in Annan Kingdom, especially for his high attainments in astrology. Hu Zhiwei also relied on his astrological attainments. The barbarian king finally had to appoint him as his national advisor. But the Barbarian King did not trust Hu Zhiwei very much.
The barbarian king was very taboo on Hu Zhiwei and his family. After all, the real threat to him in the entire Annan Kingdom is Hu Zhiwei and his family. Therefore, there is less cooperation between them and more confrontation. The competition between the two families is fierce.
This time the Barbarian King went on an expedition, there were also many diviners predicting bad luck. These are all good omens. Before going on an expedition, the Barbarian King specially asked Hu Zhiwei, the national advisor, to perform divination. Hu Zhiwei also had a good omen through divination, but he had a vague feeling that the return journey might not be smooth.
Hu Zhiwei knew that the Barbarian King would definitely take him with him when he went on an expedition. Of course, he was afraid that Hu Zhiwei's reputation would be too high. The young prince could not control him. Therefore, Hu Zhiwei also persuaded the barbarian king not to go to war.
The Great Zheng Dynasty is a symbol of power and mystery in the hearts of Annan people. Even if Annanguo won the battle, it would only be a temporary advantage. When the Zheng Dynasty completely resolves the hidden dangers in the north, it will not be easy to take revenge on Annan Kingdom!
Even if the Zheng Dynasty could not solve the hidden dangers in the north, they retreated to the south of the Yangtze River. By then Annan Kingdom may be in danger of being destroyed. Therefore, Hu Zhiwei, the national teacher, urged. Hu Zhiwei also knew that the Barbarian King would not listen to him, so he was just fulfilling his duty.
Sure enough, the barbarian king did not listen to the dissuasion of the national teacher. In fact, the more the imperial advisor tried to dissuade him, the more the barbarian king wanted to go on an expedition. Originally, the Barbarian King had some concerns. Seeing that the Imperial Master tried his best to dissuade him, the last doubt was eliminated.
Before the expedition, Hu Zhiwei divined a fortune for himself to predict the good or bad luck of his return journey. I didn't see anything, but I got a backlash. Moreover, Hu Zhiwei’s life was short-lived. It has a lifespan of half a year at most.
Although Hu Zhiwei did not see the result, he already knew that there would be unpredictable dangers on his return trip. When Hu Zhiwei gave the prediction to the Man King, he had a vague feeling that the Man King's return journey would be dangerous. Now it can be concluded that the return of the Barbarian King will be a serious disaster.
Because he predicted his return, he almost died from the backlash. If one predicts the return of the Barbarian King, he will definitely die. Hu Zhiwei, Annan's national teacher, was very happy. Although he was not far from death, the Barbarian King was also going to die soon.
It's not a bad thing for his family. This time the Barbarian King went on an expedition, almost all the family elites came out, and the Barbarian King died. Their Hu family will prosper! In addition, Hu Zhiwei can inform the family in advance.
The Hu family was fully prepared, and from then on Annanguo had to bear the surname Hu. Originally, in Annan Kingdom, the two families took turns to be king. It's all about strength. Whichever company has the clear advantage will have the right to speak.
In Annan Kingdom, these two giant families are constantly fighting. But in major head-on confrontations, conflicts are almost rare. Neither family can afford to be hurt. Injure the enemy one thousand, and injure oneself eight hundred. The victory was also a miserable victory.
No one can take advantage. On the contrary, it will give other small and medium-sized families an opportunity to take advantage of it.
Hu Zhiwei believes that this expedition to the Zheng Dynasty is likely to be a historical opportunity to change the fate of the family. So when Li Miao appeared in the Barbarian King's cabin, the Imperial Master was not surprised at all. Very calm.
When Li Miao showed off his power, Hu Zhiwei was not afraid at all. On the contrary, I was a little relieved. He wouldn't live long anyway. Humbling and bending the knee does not mean much to Hu Zhiwei.
Later, Li Miao strangled King Man to death with his own hands and even broke King Man's neck. Hu Zhiwei felt that he was done. He even used the authority of his own national advisor. Helped Li Miao surrender the entire Annan army.
This was done simply because many of the direct descendants of the Barbarian King family were among those who surrendered to the army.
. It would be better to let them stay in the Dazheng Dynasty forever. This would be more beneficial to their Hu family. It is more beneficial to the interests of their Hu family.
As a member of the propaganda team, Hu Zhiwei also admired the policies formulated by Li Miao. After a few days, tens of thousands of prisoners and sailors began to be in order. Know how to act according to the rules.
National Preceptor Hu Zhiwei gradually began to worry. He found that when Li Miao talks and does things, he must do what he says and his actions must bear fruit. Li Miao promised to release these prisoners after five years. It may be true. Rather than lying.
If it is true, these 20,000 people may become a disaster for the Hu family. If there are more than 20,000 people, they will all be used by the direct lineage of the Barbarian King. It is useless even if the Hu clan has unified Annan Kingdom.
Annan Kingdom is still a barbaric land with a small population. These more than 20,000 people will still be in their prime five years later. Plus the same hatred. What a force that is. Hu Zhiwei must stop it.
But Hu Zhiwei knew that his life was short, otherwise he would not be worried. With him here, he can at least divide and disintegrate this army. So he had to surrender to Li Miao.
Hu Zhiwei surrendered to Li Miao without any psychological burden. Annan people inherently respect the strong. Li Miao is not only a strong man, but also a wise man. In fact, Hu Zhiwei has long been convinced.
If given the opportunity, Hu Zhiwei would definitely warn his people. The Great Zheng Dynasty is inviolable. People like Li Miao are not something their family can fight against.
In Li Miao's study, Hu Zhiwei told the truth. He also swore a blood oath that he and his family would be loyal to him. Li Miao didn't know if the blood oath was useful, but he still had some vague feelings.
Li Miao felt that Hu Zhiwei was not lying. Even if it was a lie, there would be no loss to Li Miao. As for whether the Hu family is loyal to him or not, it is of no importance to Li Miao.
The key is that several direct descendants of the Barbarian King are still among the captives and sailors. Others may surrender. Is it possible for these direct descendants of the Barbarian King? This era is about the sworn hatred between father and mother.
These direct descendants of the Barbarian King are a huge hidden danger. These were the sailors that Li Miao wanted to take for his own use. It is very likely that he will become an unfamiliar white-eyed wolf. Li Miao was also shocked and broke into a cold sweat.
It almost turned out to be a big mistake, leaving huge hidden dangers for the Liaodong Bureau. These are not what Li Miao fears most. What if they riot collectively? What if they rioted when the Jurchens attacked?
Li Miao felt that she was still too complacent. A wise man will make a mistake every time he thinks. You are talking about yourself. In fact, there are too few people around me who can remind me. Jia Tanchun may have fallen in love and didn't think too much about it.
What about everyone else? Didn't you think of it? Maybe it's because of his majesty. As a result, his subordinates did not dare to make different sounds in front of him.
It seems that we will still have to open up the conversation in the future. Listen to the few opinions you have. Moreover, it must be institutionalized and there must be corresponding reward and punishment measures. Otherwise, it would be nonsense to speak widely.
The national master Hu Zhiwei, who was kneeling on the ground, knew that Li Miao must be considering the issue of the direct descendants of the Barbarian King. Little did he know that Li Miao was already thinking about how to speak out more widely in the future.
Li Miao quickly returned to the present. It will be easier to handle if you know the situation. The first step was to verify the situation, and it was soon confirmed that what Hu Zhiwei said was true. As a result, the direct descendants of the Barbarian King and nearly 500 of his cronies were taken into custody and secretly executed.
Li Miao will not be merciful, even though these hidden dangers have been eliminated. Li Miao still felt uneasy. The forces of the Barbarian King family have been eliminated. What about those from the National Normal University? The blood oath will not completely reassure Li Miao.
Li Miao then used silver needles to cure Hu Zhiwei. By the way, more than 200 of his people also stayed on Weizhou Island. Food, weapons, armor and other supplies were left behind.
Whether they can return to Annan Kingdom is left to fate. At least I can be a strong Tu tribe on Weizhou Island.
Imperial Master Annan was truly grateful to Li Miao, not only for saving his life. He also left his cronies with him. If Hu Zhiwei has the opportunity to return to Annan, the Hu family will be even more powerful.
