Chapter 1036 - The Gains Outweigh the Losses

Yun Lan was very anxious at the moment, his confidence to hand over his family background came from the fact that he was a southerner, and he was even more in this mansion by the sea. The Yun family has been making a living at sea for generations, and the people they have met and come into contact with are these people who run the sea. As long as Mao Wenlong agrees to let him recruit troops and horses by himself, he is confident that in a very short period of time, he will regain a more solid family foundation than before.

But now it seems that it has backfired, and it has also risen to the political level, and the situation is already serious. If he says the wrong thing at this time, then what awaits him may be the destruction of the family.

Regret spread in Yun Lan's body, and he didn't know what to do for a while. He was so anxious that a cold sweat broke out, thinking of the situation that he had worked hard to survive all these years of coming and going in the fire and water, and risking his life. Now it may be ruined, and it may implicate the entire race, and he wants to die.

Mao Wenlong had been observing Yun Lan, and when he saw his embarrassed appearance, he secretly laughed in his heart. How is the Yun family, Mao Wenlong is actually clear in his heart. Mao Wenlong deliberately said the words more heavily just now, also to take the opportunity to knock Yun Lan, and now it seems that the goal has been achieved, and it is time to end.

"Yun Shuai is loyal to the Ming Dynasty and the royal family, there is no doubt about this. This general soldier also doesn't believe that Yun Shuai will have two hearts, but the matter of recruiting troops on his own is too implicated and should not be acted upon. In this way, this chief soldier promises you that when the academy assigns students this time, Yun Shuai can give priority to selection, and fifty warships will also be returned to you within a year, which is good! Mao Wenlong smiled, dissolving the solemn atmosphere in the hall.

"Xie Zongbing! Yun Lan has no objection! Hearing this, Yun Lan hurriedly knelt down to thank her, and the negative emotions in her heart instantly disappeared. At this time, he only had endless gratitude to Mao Wenlong, and he didn't care about whether he suffered a loss or not.

Coming with passion but returning with chicken feathers all over the place, Yun Lan looked dejected when she left the Governor's Palace. Fortunately, in the end, there was no danger, and Mao Wenlong still gave him a satisfactory answer. And during this transition period, Mao Wenlong also sent a direct message to the prefect and the admiral, asking them to fully cooperate with Yun Lan to keep the city safe.

As soon as he sent Yun Lan away, before Mao Wenlong could sort out his thoughts, he heard Chen Jisheng's hearty laughter outside the door.

"Hahaha...... Commander, I'm back! As soon as Chen Jisheng stepped into the door with one foot, the loud voice immediately drifted away.

Mao Wenlong was looking for Chen Jisheng, but he didn't expect this guy to bump into him immediately. Taking a deep breath, Mao Wenlong shouted with a serious face: "Chen Jisheng, you are guilty!" ”

This cold drink directly confused Chen Jisheng, who was full of joy: "Chief soldier, what is the crime of his subordinates?" ”

Mao Wenlong first gave Leng Feng a look and asked him to call the people in the hall out. Leng Feng understood and called out all the servants in the hall, and he himself closed the door and guarded the door.

At this moment, Mao Wenlong said coldly: "You kid is too reckless, I let you transfer troops and horses by yourself, so that you can do things steadily." But it's good for you, all of them were transferred here in Fucheng at once, and Yun Lan's family funds were directly emptied. If you were treated like this, wouldn't you have a pimple in your heart? ”

Chen Jisheng was stunned for a moment before he reacted, seeing that Mao Wenlong blamed him for this, he should have returned to normal. He said with a smile: "Isn't this a general soldier to carry on his subordinates?" How about it, has the chief soldier already appeased Yun Lan's kid? ”

Looking at Chen Jisheng, who was smiling cheaply and completely determined to be himself, Mao Wenlong suddenly felt that he was still being calculated by him. suffered a dumb loss, but he really couldn't be angry with Chen Jisheng, Mao Wenlong felt a little unhappy.

glared at Chen Jisheng fiercely, and Mao Wenlong's tone softened: "Okay, don't worry, you kid, three days should be enough for you to transfer all your troops and horses." And when are you ready to go? ”

Speaking of business, Chen Jisheng quickly put away the hippie smile on his face, pondered for a moment and said embarrassedly: "It will take at least ten days to fight, there is no way to go faster." ”

Frowning, Mao Wenlong said in a deep voice: "Why is it taking so long, if there is any difficulty in saying it, I will help you think of a way." ”

The situation in the South China Sea is becoming more and more tense, and in order to be able to send troops as soon as possible, Mao Wenlong was forced to completely decentralize power and let Chen Jisheng do it. Seeing that things were going well, Chen Jisheng finally came to say that he could not send troops in time. What is this Nima's not a failure? Mao Wenlong can't do it if he's not in a hurry.

As soon as Mao Wenlong became angry, Chen Jisheng was frightened, and hurriedly explained: "Chief soldier, you know about this expedition to the sea, there are too many preparations to be prepared. If you go out in a hurry, if you have an accident, the whole army will be implicated, and your subordinates really don't dare to be careless. ”

"Alas......" Mao Wenlong let out a sigh!

What Chen Jisheng said just now was the truth, and it would be better if the army went on an expedition, at least the logistical problems could be replenished along the way. It's different at sea, once you go to sea, there is no turning back, and there is no supply halfway. Therefore, before going overseas, it is necessary to solve the logistics problem in one step.

"So be it! After three days, you can arrange as many ships as you can to go out, and you will take them out first. The rest was handed over to me, and after the arrangements were made, the general soldier personally led the troops to Luzon. After some deep thought, Mao Wenlong made a decision.

Chen Jisheng thought for a moment and nodded in response: "That's all!" ”

Mao Wenlong nodded, waved his hand to let Chen Jisheng step back, hurry up and complete all matters, and strive to go out early. Chen Jisheng didn't dare to say more, and immediately saluted and retreated.

The hall was suddenly empty, leaving Mao Wenlong alone, looking at the empty hall, Mao Wenlong fell into silence for a while. At this time, he felt a sense of loneliness all over his body, and since he set foot on this imperial road, he and his family have gathered less and separated more. And it's getting worse over time.

Mao Wenlong sometimes calms down alone, and he will ask himself, is it worth it, and what do he want? In terms of power, the current Ming Dynasty has no enemies to speak of, within a hundred or two hundred years. As long as there are no major accidents, there is no problem at all with the prosperity of the Ming Dynasty.

It stands to reason that he can now enjoy the rest of his life and be reunited with his family. But in reality, Mao Wenlong is still running around and working hard every day, and there is very little time to get together with his family.

"Alas...... Forget it, my children and grandchildren have their own blessings, and I should live well for myself! Mao Wenlong stood at the window, looking at the sunset outside the window, and a happy smile gradually appeared on his face.
