Qiongzhou City, Prince Liang’s Mansion.
Qin Yun was lying under the tree, drinking a coconut, with Li Daiyu next to him and Liu Guanguan peeling bananas for Qin Yun with a smile.
Zhou Meiniang was pulled by Jiang Yingying to practice martial arts.
The back house of the prince's palace is full of joyful atmosphere.
But at this time, a maid suddenly came to report.
"Your Majesty, Sir Wang invites you to go to the Military Machine Pavilion to report something important."
Qin Yun, who had just been squinting for a moment, stood up.
"Don't fight here, I will come as soon as I go!"
Liu Guanguan smiled and said: "What are you saying, Your Majesty? How can we sisters fight?"
"Husband, I'm going too!"
Li Daiyu watched helplessly.
Qin Yun: "Be good, be obedient, and play with your sisters."
Qin Yun pulled out his hand from the abyss that was impossible to gaze into, and walked away as fast as he could.
In the past few days, he had been tortured repeatedly by these little girls.
Fortunately for Li Daiyu, she said that when someone is sick, she needs Yang Qi to balance her body.
Zhou Meiniang, a little girl, has recently established a kindergarten and a welfare institution. She has made great contributions and deserves a reward.
Granny Jiang's hacking has obtained a lot of top-secret information for Qin Yun, so Jiang Yingying needs to be nourished, otherwise the old lady will go crazy.
Liu Guanguan is currently the eldest wife in the palace, and she is in charge of the harem. She is the big housekeeper, and she takes care of it every day, which is even more comforting.
If he hadn't taken the Nine Jue Divine Flower and his physique was different from ordinary people, he might not have been able to survive this day.
No wonder the ancient emperors were short-lived. How could this not be short-lived?
Of course, if Qin Yun was asked to choose, he would definitely choose now.
After Qin Yun left, the girls looked at Li Daiyu with smiles. She was lacking in intelligence now, but none of the girls made things difficult for her.
Of course, only Yanaguan knew his identity.
"Sister Daiyu, do you want to eat fruit candies?"
"Thank you sister!"
"Be good, go over there and play after eating, the prince has something important to deal with."
"Hmm~~"
If Tanaka Haruko, Matsumoto Taketo, Chen Jin and others saw this scene, they would not be able to remove the eyeballs and step on them before putting them back on.
After all, this is the Grand Master, and now he behaves like a kitten.
…
Qin Yun stepped into the Military Machine Pavilion.
It was discovered that at this time, Wang Muzhi, Chen Jin, Wang Menghu, Tieshuan, Zhao Fengxian, Bai Zhanpeng, Yang Yong, Zhao Kun and others had all arrived. These were the deliberation ministers of the Military Machinery Pavilion.
Wang Muzhi cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, something happened in the Yue Kingdom!"
Qin Yun just took a sip of tea and spurted it out.
"Didn't I send Zuo Siliang to escort us? I have a whole battalion, how could anything happen?"
"This is an urgent message from Commander Zuo. Please take a look, Your Majesty."
Qin Yun took it and glanced at it, but his eyes were fixed.
He tapped his fingers on the table, thinking slightly.
He did not expect that Wu State would actually take action first. The Queen Mother of the Yue Kingdom died. How could Yue Qing not take revenge? But in this case, she would not be able to send troops to help in the Ryukyu War.
Moreover, Qin Yun wanted to support Yue State, after all, they had just signed an offensive and defensive alliance treaty.
Qin Yun muttered: "What do you think?"
Bai Zhanpeng said: "The Yue State is fighting against the Wu State. The Yue State has a slim chance of winning. Moreover, the Yue State and Fuso Honshu Island are across the sea. Fuso may not take advantage of others."
Liu Yulin muttered: "The person standing behind the Wu Kingdom is Qin Zheng. We have to participate in this battle. But now, Qiongzhou only has 30,000 troops. Once they are put into the battlefield of Yue Kingdom, it will be a drop in the bucket."
"The Kingdom of Wu can raise at least 300,000 troops."
As the former Minister of War of Daxia, Liu Yulin naturally had an understanding of the general military strength of the country.
If it were in the past, when the Wu Kingdom attacked the Yue Kingdom, then Daxia would do whatever it took to help Daxia for its own benefit. After all, a unified Seven Kingdoms of Dongjun would be nothing short of a disaster for Daxia.
But now, Daxia and Wu have also reached a deal, and Qin Zheng is even the driving force behind Wu's unification of Dongjun. In this way, Yue basically has only one way to destroy the country.
Of course, they can also surrender to Fusang, but will the Yue Congress?
Obviously not!
Qin Yun muttered: "No matter how few soldiers there are, we must support them!"
"Now the State of Yue is our biggest creditor in Qiongzhou, and we haven't received the money yet. The coal mines, iron mines, and various medicinal resources of the State of Yue are all urgently needed by Qiongzhou. Once the State of Yue falls, our situation will be different It’s going to be harder.”
"This battle must be fought. At the very least, the country of Yue must hold on."
Chen Jindao: "Your Majesty, why don't we stop playing Ryukyu for the time being!"
Qin Yun shook his head: "If we don't fight, do you think Ryukyu will just watch us grow?"
"Furthermore, if we want to help the Yue Kingdom defeat the Wu Kingdom, we must capture Ryukyu. After all, we have to pass through the Ryukyu waters to get to the Yue Kingdom."
"Besides, playing Ryukyu can also attract Fuso's attention and stop them from messing around!"
Wang Menghu said: "Then fight, I will personally lead the people to provide early support."
Qin Yun flatly objected: "No, you have never led a soldier."
"Bai Zhanpeng!"
"The end will be here."
Qin Yun smiled and said: "Find a way to transfer Lan Tian to me from the northern border. In addition, get some elite generals from Ji Qing in the Western Region."
Bai Zhanpeng was stunned: "What does the prince mean?"
Qin Yun: "The Kingdom of Yue is not short of soldiers or generals. As long as we give them enough experienced generals and weapons, we can stop the Kingdom of Wu. We don't seek victory, but seek invincibility. And we still have time. After all, we are far away from Yueshui." Freezing is still a month or two away.”
"Before this, it was impossible for Wu to attack on a large scale."
"Inform the arsenal and go all out to build artillery and continuous machine guns."
"In addition, Wang Muzhi has specially approved a weapons production line to be located in the country of Yue. The troops led by Zuo Siliang are responsible for protecting this production line and making every effort to ensure the supply of weapons and ammunition to the country of Yue."
Wang Muzhi nodded: "Your Majesty, will this production line be deducted from the loan?"
Qin Yun: "Just support them. However, the weapons and equipment produced must be sold to Yue at a certain price. We can't go hungry and work for others, right?"
Wang Muzhi smiled: "Wei Chen understands!"
Qin Yun: "Yang Yong!"
"The humble position is here."
"You lead the Shadow Guards and rush to Dong County to collect intelligence."
Yang Yong was stunned: "Your Majesty, I also want to play Ryukyu."
"I didn't tell you not to fight. You go and collect information first. Wu State, Fusang and Qin Zheng don't know about this. I'm worried that there are spies in Yue State. This time they have touched the Yue Palace, so It proves that the whole country of Yue is rotten from top to bottom.”
"You go, you are cooperating with the king of Yue to rectify the officialdom of the country of Yue. Kill her when she should. Tell her not to be benevolent as a woman."
"No! My lord, you can remember to recruit me back. I, Yang Yong, must have a share in fighting the Japanese."
"Go ahead, I will let you take the lead."
"Zhao Kun!"
"The humble position is here."
"Continue to strengthen the local defense of Qiongzhou, and send fishermen into the Chaozhou area to connect with the Yu family to protect the interests of our waterways. No matter who threatens the lives and property of our people in Qiongzhou, they can open fire without authorization."
"promise!"
"For the rest, Chen Jin and Wang Menghu, your two battalions will be expanded to 3,000 men each to form a regiment-level combat unit."
"Each regiment is equipped with a steam battleship and several landing ships."
"In the first ten days of winter, prepare to attack Ryukyu!"
"The meeting is over!"
"promise!"
…
As Qin Yun decentralized a series of orders, Qiongzhou Port became extremely busy, with ships of all sizes coming and going constantly. Of course, this also gave many spies opportunities.
Many spies even almost infiltrated the arsenal, but in the end, they all became a hornet's nest.
Moreover, Qin Yun also ordered to mobilize the masses.
Anyone who is suspected of being a spy will be rewarded fifty taels upon verification.
This has led to the people in Qiongzhou talking about catching fifty taels every day. The spies are also afraid of death and now they don't dare to act openly.
Many people whose identities were unknown and refused to admit were imprisoned in sky jails.
Shen Wansan met many acquaintances from the capital during this period.
A middle-level dragon guard was relieved when he saw that Shen Wansan was also imprisoned.
"Sir, you are here too!"
Shen Wansan said angrily: "If you don't come to save me, why are you still making sarcastic remarks?"
The dragon guard coughed lightly: "Sir, we think so too, but you also know that the imperial navy's strength is better than nothing. Qin Yun is no different from a separatist regime in a practical sense."
"The imperial court can only watch now. Yesterday, two official ships from Chaozhou and Suzhou wanted to approach Qiongzhou Island. Guess what?"
"What's wrong?"
"Sinked!"
Shen Wansan: "..."
Hong Haoxuan sighed and said: "We won't be sacrificed, right? Sir, I said that Miss Shen should not be betrothed to that person. You see, this person is even more difficult to mess with."
Shen Wansan said with a dark face: "Do you think I think about it? By the way, how is my daughter?"
The dragon guard said: "Miss Shen Yue has been very well-behaved recently and has been under the supervision of the dragon guard."
Shen Wansan snorted coldly: "Your Majesty didn't say anything?"
Dragon Guard: "Your Majesty said so."
"What did you say?" Shen Wansan asked.
The guard imitated Emperor Xia's tone: "Shen Wansan, that loser, Hong Haoxuan, don't come back, you are a bunch of losers..."
Shen Wansan rolled up his sleeves: "Don't stop me, I'll beat him up!"
Hong Haoxuan: "Sir, if you can't reach it, don't waste your efforts!"
"Look, another spy is here."
Shen Wansan looked over.
The man glared over: "Bagaya road!"
Shen Wansan took off his shoes and threw them over: "You son of a bitch, you dare to scold me. Call Qin Yun. I have to go out and I have something to say to him."
Hong Haoxuan: "Sir, it's useless. I just heard someone say that the Yue State and the Wu State are fighting, and now Qiongzhou is providing emergency support."
Shen Wansan: "This kid can't even protect himself, who else wants to support him? I want to see how he can capture that Ryukyu!"
…
Ten days later, Qiongzhou Port.
An inconspicuous Tongzhou fishing boat slowly docked.
But Qin Yun came to greet him personally.
Not long after, a group of mighty and powerful men came out of the boat.
"Your Majesty!"
Lantian cried with joy, and he knelt on the shore.
Qin Yun helped him up: "You have suffered!"
The other generals also knelt down: "General, I will see you at last, the prince!"
"Very well, pass on the message and cleanse the dust for all the generals."
At this time, a general said: "Your Majesty, we want to see the rumored armored ship."
Qin Yun smiled and said: "It's simple! Look, isn't it?"
Everyone looked for the sound and saw three black ships slowly approaching from the sea level, emitting black smoke and carrying their own flags in the sunset.
Qin Yun: "Fire the cannon!"
With a roar, several cannons on the coast fired a salvo, and three ironclad ships also fired in salute.
The generals' blood boiled: "Your Majesty, with this iron guy, can we defeat Fusang very well?"
Qin Yun smiled and said: "Why not? Everyone, I came here just to fight."
"That's good!"
"Let's go, drink first and he won't come back until he's drunk."
"Your Majesty is very considerate. I want to eat barbecue later."
"Qiongzhou coconut chicken is also good, haha..."
