Han You came out of the palace with a smile on his face, but his heart was extremely heavy.
He broke his promise and lied to Lao Ba.
Now that he has gunpowder, once he goes to the East China Sea, he will never come back unless he kills the Japanese bandits. He will either die in the East China Sea or kill every last Japanese bandit.
The three Sha family brothers almost fell asleep while waiting. When they saw Han You coming back, they all got on their horses.
When Wenwu took Zhou Ben out of the palace just now, the three of them had already asked about the general situation.
Han You did not go back to Four Seasons Villa, but returned to Han Mansion, planning to ask his father if he had any suitable candidates.
After dinner, Han You sat in the study and thought hard.
Now he has reached a bottleneck period, and the inventory in his mind has long been emptied. He can't think of anything about naval battles or warships. After all, his major is completely inappropriate. The most he can think of is a watertight cabin. .
Han You, who usually couldn't sit still, locked himself in the study for more than two hours. He didn't walk out of the room until his father came back at night.
Seeing the good boy here, Old Han was in a good mood and asked Wang Shan to get some food and drinks quickly.
The father and son sat in the back garden, looking at each other.
Dad took a sip of wine first and was in a surprisingly good mood today: "That bitch Huang Youwei just went to the camp outside the city to find his father."
"Really?" Han You filled his father's glass with wine: "What are you talking about?"
"What happened in the court today, and what happened to You'er and you in the Jingzhi Hall later, said that the Goguryeo envoy Gao Mingli wanted us to send a general to Goguryeo."
"Yes, there is such a thing."
Just as he mentioned it, Han You couldn't help but ask: "Dad, do you have any good candidates?"
The old man smiled and said nothing, as if he was trying to show off his words.
Han You's eyes lit up: "You really have someone, please tell me who is the right person to send?"
Dad laughed, drank the wine in the glass, and then pointed at himself.
Han You was startled: "You?"
"Yes, let's go for my father."
"No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no."
"Don't be anxious, You'er. Listen to what dad has to say to you first."
"no!"
For the first time, Han You made a serious face with his father: "No matter what, my son doesn't agree with this matter. Even if my son goes, I can't let my father suffer the pain of running around. You just have to enjoy your life in Beijing and wait for me. After returning home after making great achievements, our Han family will no longer interfere with the affairs of the court. We will rest on our merits and enjoy the blessings. Dad will also enjoy the blessings and quit his job to help take care of the children."
"It works, why can't it happen?"
There was a look of longing on the father's face: "What Youer said is that it is precisely because of this that dad wants to go."
"Why are you so..."
"Dad, I have to go. Dad, I have to go. Dad, I must go."
"No." Han You said fiercely: "Who the hell dares to suggest that you go, I'll kill him!"
The father shook his head, poured a glass of wine for Han You, and said slowly: "Dad, I have to go, because the Goguryeo envoy will definitely tell the court that he wants me to go."
Han You was stunned. Before he could speak, his father analyzed: "Dad is the father of You'er, the commander of the Yida Guards. Who else is more suitable than dad? Who else can make Goguryeo more at ease than dad?" Even if dad says he has to go, if dad doesn't go, Goguryeo won't feel at ease, so he will cheat and cheat, delaying Youer's plan to kill Ying."
"Can…"
"As for why we have to go, it's because if Dad doesn't go, Goguryeo will definitely ask You'er to go. You'er has great military achievements. When it comes to leading the army in battle, he is much better than Dad. A fierce general like You'er will definitely be defeated by Goguryeo. I'm thinking about it, but the boat masters, officials, aristocratic families, and people in the East China Sea are all inseparable from You'er, so how can You'er go? You're not allowed to go, I can only go for my father, this is what dad said I must go."
Han You opened his mouth, unable to refute for a moment, but his father's analysis made sense, leaving him speechless.
"In the end this is the place to go."
The father pushed the wine glass in front of Han You, drank the wine in front of him in one gulp, wiped his mouth, and looked proud.
"Who in this world can worry more about You'er than dad. Dad is not old yet. He can mount a horse, wield a knife, and break an array. Dad will go to the East China Sea with you. When we arrive in the East China Sea, dad will eradicate You'er first. Those blind fools, after You'er is safe and sound, Dad will take his sons on the ship to go to Goguryeo. With Dad here, he will definitely not delay You'er's affairs. He defeated Baekje this morning so that Goguryeo can free up his hands. Help Youer deal with Yingdao."
"But over there in the East China Sea..."
"Does Youer think dad is getting old?" Dad waved his hand: "Do you think dad can't fight in battle?"
"My child is just afraid that you will go into battle. The sword has no eyes. If you say it's time to fight, my child, if you have any shortcomings, how can you tell my child to live?"
Han You was really anxious. Even though he knew what his father was talking about was true, he still couldn't agree to it.
Just when Wang Shan came in with a wine jar, Han You quickly told Ah Shan what was going on and asked Wang Shan to persuade his father.
Unexpectedly, Wang Shan looked indifferent and almost couldn't hold back his joy when he heard that Han You was afraid that his father would make a mistake in the battle formation.
Han Bairen was also laughing, and asked with a smile: "That gunpowder is a magical weapon. I don't know how much I have to take with me to Goguryeo. If the general in charge of the army is replaced by someone else, can Youer rest assured?"
Han You was stunned and looked at his father, very strange: "Dad, why didn't I realize that you are so good at persuading others before?"
He didn't mean anything else, but he suddenly felt that his father was becoming more and more thoughtful. Even when he persuaded others, he was so flawless that he didn't give others any chance to refute.
This is indeed the case. While drinking, Han Bairen said to himself: "How high is Baekje's city wall? Can your gunpowder blow it down?"
"Of course it can. The wall at the border can be blown down, as long as there is enough."
"Then it's over. Do you think that dad will rush to kill you? Not to mention dad, even his subordinates would not do this. The troops they led all carried their bows and used heavy bows to shoot out the gunpowder and exploded. Just lead the Goguryeo bastards from behind the city gate and rush in, we won’t participate.”
Han You opened his mouth and felt that this was really the case. There was no need to go to the battle formation in person, and there was no need for an army. Just shoot with gunpowder and that's it. We already had gunpowder. Are you stupid to go up and fight with swords?
"Dad, I'll ask you again, even if dad wants to rush into the battle formation, will the Goguryeo people agree?"
Han You was still speechless.
Dad laughed loudly: "If dad wants to rush forward, the Goguryeo people would rather die than let dad get even half a step closer to the battle formation. Who is dad? He is Han Youhan, the commander of the Dazhouyi Sword Guard." Father of the commander, if something happens to me, can Goguryeo withstand the wrath of Zhou? It is already at war with Baekje, which is equivalent to war with Yingdao. Silla is going to war with Zhou. As long as something happens to dad, we will Dazhou will not let him go, Dazhou is facing each other with swords, Silla is following behind, Baekje and Yingdao are already at war with them, do you think the Goguryeo people are stupid?"
Han You was speechless for the Nth time. After holding it in for a long time, he suddenly asked without thinking: "Who are you? You are not a time traveler, are you?"
The main reason is that in Han You's eyes recently, the contrast between Lao Han and Han You is too great.
In fact, it is not that there is a contrast, but that the higher the status of Han You, the more troublesome the problems he has to deal with. Unlike before, it was just trivial matters. These trivial matters made Lao Han too lazy to use his brain. If it is not possible, just send a few people to kill them, and it will be over. .
