That night, a group of thugs wearing black robes of Yi Dao Guards entered the capital.
Half an hour later, this group of people, led by Fu Yuxiang, gathered at the entrance of Honglu Temple.
Fu Yuxiang tilted his head and looked at the shivering government servant, and asked where the Goguryeo envoy lived.
The yamen servant was so nervous that he couldn't speak. He couldn't bear to see a ghost-like figure, so he stood quietly in front of the fish elephant.
Eunuch Suan scolded his mother, didn't Commander Han say he would handle this matter in a low-key manner?
The Fish-Flying Elephant is very helpless, indeed very low-key. Isn’t the sun setting?
Mr. Suan continued to scold you, from entering the city to Honglu Temple, at least hundreds of people have seen you along the way.
Fuyuxiang is even more helpless, there are fewer people there than when we come during the day.
Shu Hua, who was standing next to Fu Yuxiang, secretly praised, "It's so damn exciting. This young master is indeed in the wrong profession."
In this way, under the leadership of Mr. Suan, fifty thugs armed to the teeth kidnapped more than twenty Goguryeo envoys in two courtyards in a low-key manner.
Gao Minglin, who had just returned not long ago, watched the whole process and sighed in his heart, Commander Han was so damn efficient in doing things. He only finished talking in the morning and came to arrest people as soon as the sun set in the afternoon.
In this way, the only obstacle to the alliance between Da Zhou and Goguryeo was gone.
The most excited person was Gao Minglin. He couldn't sleep. The more he thought about it, the more excited he got. He put on his clothes, picked up his waist tag, left the city, and went to Four Seasons Villa. He wanted to go to the Yidao camp prison to meet the third prince Gao Tai. The reason was unknown. He is just a villain who succeeds.
After searching for a long time, he finally found Gao Tai. Goguryeo was screaming and wearing a prison uniform with a big circle drawn on it and the word "live" in the middle.
Gao Minglin was unhappy. What he wanted was for Mrs. Gao to die. What did the word "live" on these people's prison uniforms mean? Can they be released in the future?
Fu Yuxiang didn't explain, but pulled Gao Tai. Only then did Gao Minglin see the word behind the prison uniform, "Damn!"
Satisfied, Gao Minglin came here, took a bath, spent several hundred dollars, and felt refreshed.
The next day, Gao Minglin came to court and formed an alliance with Dazhou on behalf of Goguryeo. After Han You arrived in the East China Sea, he went back to Goguryeo to go through the procedures and asked the queen to declare a full-scale war against Baekje and Yingdao!
Either they say that Goguryeo is stubborn, and attacking Baekje will also attract Japanese thieves anyway, so it is better to declare war proactively and show off the domineering power.
After the court ended, Han You stood by the palace pillar and nodded at Gao Minglin who came out, making eye contact and understanding tacitly.
Han You did not attend today's court meeting. He stayed outside the main hall and listened. There were reasons for not entering the hall. He wanted to know if he was not present, would there really be someone stupid at today's decisive court meeting? Come out and find trouble.
In fact, there was no such idiot. Han You, who was slightly disappointed, went to Jingzhi Hall and stayed there for more than an hour. When he walked out, from that moment on, the Great Zhou Dynasty entered a quasi-official military operation since the beginning of the dynasty. , quell the chaos, the chaos in the East China Sea!
Before the court finalized this matter, Han You was the busiest, or at least he kept his friends the busiest.
Now that the matter was completely, completely, and 100% settled, the court became busy, but Han You was free.
Teams of cavalry came out of Chengdu with flags on their backs. Hundreds of them came forward to tell the world that the Japanese thieves had committed bloody crimes and that the East China Sea rebels were plotting evil!
Announcements were posted in Jingzhao Mansion and various cities and towns, and literate people stood beside them, reading and explaining over and over again.
This is also the result of the careful consideration of Emperor Zhou Ke. Either don't do it, or do it with a big one. The lion fights the rabbit with all his strength. The East China Sea must be decided in one battle to avoid long nights and dreams. The palace is not afraid of embarrassment, but is afraid of being like the previous dynasty. The more you whitewash the peace and anesthetize yourself, the bigger the mess will become and the more out of control it will be.
Since the East China Sea is in such chaos, it is classified as a "chaotic" place. There are three reasons why the army put down the chaos.
First, gunpowder came out, and the East China Sea had a large amount of gunpowder raw materials that needed to be mined.
Second, the local officials and powerful people in the East China Sea collaborated with the enemy to plot evil.
Third, investigate the assassination of the Goguryeo envoy planned and implemented by a family supported by Ying thieves.
The three reasons all refer to the East China Sea, both refer to the chaos in the East China Sea, and both refer to the determination of the imperial court.
The father and son of the Han family received their latest official positions. General Han Bairen of the Zhu Kingdom was appointed as the general of the Shangzhu Kingdom and the commander-in-chief of the three marches to the East China Sea. He led the second battalion of Jingwei to the East China Sea to capture Buchen.
Han You's official position was the Ordnance Supervisor of the Three Roads in the East China Sea, and the Supervisor of the Ying Dynasty. He led 7,000 auxiliary troops to the East China Sea to inspect the weapons of various prefectures, and to survey and mine gunpowder, which was the raw material of gunpowder.
It is worth mentioning that the official position of the commander of the Yi Dao Guard was taken over by Zhou Yan, the noble prince of Tianhuang, Prince You.
When the outside world learned the news, they were not too shocked. Although it was unexpected, it was also reasonable.
At this time in Four Seasons Villa, Han You was sitting in the cafeteria, and his friends gathered together, eating and chatting.
The list of people going to the East China Sea was finally finalized. There were many, but only a few were left. Apart from the young prince, there were only Beimen Yuyong, Zhu Shang, and the three old masters in charge of the Four Seasons School.
"Take the feudal lord with you."
Ma Rulong sat in front of Han You, his eyes burning: "Take the feudal lord and I will go to the Northland after you leave. The Second Master promises you that there will be no more chaos in the Northland within a year."
Han You was really surprised: "You know that if something happens to the smart guy, your Ma family will have no heirs, right?"
Ma Fenghou was very proud. Listen, even Brother Han said that I am smart, haha.
"His life is his own, and his future is also his. Whether it succeeds or not, just give him a happy word."
Han You nodded: "Sure, give me another 500,000 yuan."
Ma Rulong reached into his arms, took out a handful of banknotes, counted a third of them and put them on the table.
Han You cursed, this guy was obviously well prepared, he had to wait less!
"Haiye."
A weak voice sounded, and Yu Qi, who was cautious and uneasy, asked softly: "Haiye, did you mispronounce the name? How come, how come Dinu also went to the East China Sea with everyone?"
Han You smiled and said, "If you don't want to go, just stay at the villa."
"I want to go!" Yuqi's face flushed with excitement: "I want to go, I want to go."
Wang Hai explained: "Shao Yin knows that you are originally from a family of officials. The fraud in the previous dynasty caused your parents to be demoted to common people and sent to the East China Sea. After you were appointed as priests when you were young, you did not know the whereabouts of your parents. The young master thought If Miss Yuqi goes to the East China Sea, she can not only help Shao Yin with errands, but also find the whereabouts of her parents."
Yuqi burst into tears. Just as she was about to kneel down, she was supported by Zhang Zhuo, the fish-crouching elephant.
Zhang Zhuo looked at Han You and was puzzled: "Shao Yin, these brothers are all guards of Prince You's Palace. You can bring them all to us..."
"I have told His Majesty, and Your Highness Prince You has agreed. I cannot trust anyone else regarding gunpowder."
Zhang Zhuo took a breath of cold air, and a group of guards from Prince You's Mansion knelt down on one knee.
In fact, Prince You's Mansion and Four Seasons Villa have become "one family" for a long time, and Han You didn't feel anything was wrong even when he summoned this group of people.
It seems that there are many people going to the East China Sea, but there are a lot of things to do. Manpower is not sufficient. Gunpowder is the top priority. Since it is to be produced in large quantities, it requires absolutely trustworthy manpower to supervise and dispatch.
"It has something to do with gunpowder, and it's a great achievement when you come back." Lu Baichuan teased: "It's an advantage for you three slaves."
Han You cursed: "That's what you call a slave with the third surname!"
Zhang Zhuo's old face turned red.
This is really the case. Basically, their allegiance is to the palace and the emperor. Lao Ba transferred them to Prince You's Mansion to serve as Zhou Yan's bodyguards.
In name only, they are the guards of Prince You's Mansion, and their allegiance is to Zhou Yan.
But, what I am getting now is the salary of the villa, I eat and drink in the villa every day, and I am ordered by Han You and Yi Daowei all day long.
A group of friends were chatting animatedly. In the corner of the cafeteria, a man with a resentful face pouted.
"Shuai Tang, please stop reading. I've told you about my humble position three hundred times. The commander-in-chief really didn't mean to ignore you. He didn't take you seriously at all."
After Chen Si finished speaking in a low voice, he also humbled himself.
At the beginning, he was more or less consistent with Tang Qingfeng's thoughts. After all, such a big "grace", not to mention the credit, he directly became the commander from deputy commander, but such an important commander-in-chief of the navy, how could Han You I just "forgot" and ignored a "living person" like Tang Qingfeng.
After staying in the villa for so long, Chen Si was also sure that Han You had not neglected Tang Qingfeng, but had completely forgotten about such a person.
What about martial arts, what about gunpowder, what about forming an alliance with Goguryeo, what about punishing Ying and destroying the country, and what about making plans for the East China Sea, none of these things is more important than Tang Qingfeng, nor is it more important than him as the deputy commander and future commander-in-chief. Chen Si felt that if he thought about it in other people's shoes, he would also If you don't have the energy and free time to talk to Tang Qingfeng, Xiao Tang is nothing. Now he just has a vacant position that cannot be disclosed, and Jifei can't help, so why bother with him.
"But he..."
Tang Qingfeng was like a resentful little daughter-in-law: "But I will be the commander-in-chief in the future. He should at least discuss it with me."
"What are we discussing? Do you know how to build ships?"
"Uh... no way."
"Do you know anything about diplomatic relations?"
"don't know."
"Do you have money or food?"
"No."
"Are you good at naval combat?"
"I haven't learned yet."
"Do you have connections in Donghai?"
"do not know."
Chen Si issued a soul torture: "Then what do you have?"
Tang Qingfeng pinched his neck and shouted: "I...I am the future commander-in-chief of the East China Sea Marine Corps!"
"Let's eat. The braised pork is good today."
"I'm a little fat. Go get me some braised pork ribs."
Chen Si looked disgusted: "Go by yourself!"
"oh."
