When a person like Zhuang Yong goes home, he should open the way with divine might, open the way with military might, and let the world know.

His Majesty's meaning is that Zhuang Yong should go home and let the world know.

These nineteen warships came to greet Zhuang Yong, and the general standing at the bow of the Shenwei warship said loudly: "Please move to Shenwei!" ”

All the soldiers on the ship shouted in unison: "Please move to Shenwei, General!" ”

That is the ship worthy of the great general Zhuang Yong, Your Majesty said, I want to make this welcome worthy of Zhuang Yong, worthy of Zhuang Yong.

The original Anyang dock was supported by Zhuang Yong's hand, and the current Anyang dock can be said to be the largest and strongest dock in the world, and the warships that can be built have been at the forefront of the world, and Zhuang Yong's difficulty in constantly reaching out to the court to ask for money finally reflects the value.

Looking at the huge warship that has been very different from the first generation of Shenwei, Zhuang Yong has mixed feelings in his heart, he is a person who takes the first generation of Shenwei, and now Shenwei is already the third generation, although it is only a little bigger than the first generation of Shenwei, but the combat power is no longer the same, this latest generation of Shenwei is equipped with firearms, although it has not yet been completely formed, but how can Zhuang Yong not be excited in his eyes?

"Get on the boat, I'm going to get on the boat."

Zhuang Yong's voice trembled, and when he took a step, he found that his hands and feet were trembling.

"Chen Zhuang Yong, thank Your Majesty."

He knelt down on the side of the ship and bowed heavily to the north.

On the bank of the Grand Canal, a teenager stood there, looking at the red battle flags fluttering on the big boat, watching the soldiers on the warship with straight bodies raising their right arms and lying them across their chests, and they didn't know if he was deliberately learning or subconsciously, and also raised their right arms on their chests. ”

The boy's fist slammed on his chest: "Like a great general." ”

The young man's mother rubbed his head, a little yearning: "If you can be a general in the future, then my mother will be very happy, but child, if you want to become a general, you don't just have to think about it, you have to work hard to be a better person, you look at the soldiers on the warship, even if it is a soldier's uniform, people who are not excellent are not qualified to wear it." ”

The young man nodded vigorously: "I will definitely do it in the future." ”

The boy's mother raised her head and looked at the warships on the Grand Canal, and her eyes slowly shifted to the banks of the Grand Canal.

Taishan.

The emperor and the courtiers discussed for a long time about the northern and eastern frontiers, and the last thing Daning was afraid of facing over the years was war, so even if the national policy set by the emperor after the Northern Expedition was to temporarily stop waging war against Heiwu to recuperate, but if he really had to fight, wouldn't Daning dare to fight?

The strength of His Majesty Li Chengtang today lies in the fact that he has seen farther than others, much farther away, he has been thinking about how to fight Heiwu fiercely since he entered the Weiyang Palace, but it is not that he will fight immediately after he ascends to the pole, Daning at that time did not have enough confidence, for this goal, His Majesty spent nearly thirty years to prepare, step by step, steadily and steadily.

First stabilize the interior of Daning, convince the courtiers, let the discipline be serious, and let the upper and lower levels be united, and then begin to prepare for the establishment of the Daning Naval Division, and then conquer some small countries around Daning, relying on the resources plundered from these small countries to the north

The conquest army provided support, such a huge idea, such a huge plan, His Majesty did not miss a single omission.

Therefore, in the fight against the black army, although Daning's national strength has also been lost, it is relatively much stronger than the black force.

The emperor and the courtiers ate together, and the matters that should be discussed were almost discussed, and the courtiers retreated immediately after eating, leaving only Lai Cheng and the crown prince Li Changye in the house, His Majesty glanced at Lai Cheng and said, "I also thank you, please have a breakfast." ”

Lai Cheng sighed, then looked sideways, it was already afternoon.

The emperor couldn't help but laugh when he saw him sighing: "Do you think it's too shabby to invite me to eat these?" I know that you are a face-saving person, so if you plan to treat me to dinner again, I will definitely give you this face, and even, in order to satisfy you, I can order food. ”

Lai Cheng: "There are still many things that have not been handled well in the minister's cabinet, so the minister will retire first." ”

The emperor said, "At this time, are you going to prepare for the meal that you will invite me to eat tomorrow?" ”

Lai Cheng retreated again: "The minister is not going anywhere." ”

The Emperor smiled and said, "I left you because there are still some important things...... Ye Yunsan is in contact with Liao Kill Wolf, if there is no big war in Northern Xinjiang this time, Liao Kill Wolf should not die, unless Xin Fengyue has already noticed something, after you go back in a while, choose a suitable person from the cabinet to go to Northern Xinjiang, if Liao Kill Wolf wants to rebel, I need to cheer him up, although Ye Yunsan's level is not low, but after all, in the place, if someone is sent by the imperial court to contact Liao Kill Wolf, Liao Kill Wolf will be more confident. ”

Lai Cheng hurriedly said: "The minister obeys the order, and the minister will determine the candidate as soon as possible and hand it over to His Majesty for selection." ”

"You'll be fine."

The emperor returned to the desk, looked at the thick stack of folds on the table, and then beckoned to the crown prince Li Changye: "You can review these folds, and give me one copy of the review, I want to see your ability." ”

Li Changye was taken aback, but hurriedly went over: "Erchen obeys the order." ”

The emperor walked to the side with a teacup and sat down, and pointed to the stool opposite: "Lai Cheng, you come and sit." ”

Lai Cheng sat down on the stool with his ass in his hand, looked at the emperor, and seemed to stop talking.

The emperor asked, "What do you want?" ”

Lai Chengdao: "The minister wants to know how much silver will be deducted from this breakfast." ”

The emperor laughed: "Look at your childish appearance, you are the first auxiliary scholar of the dynasty, your Yulu ranks first in the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, and you are the same as the prince, let you take out such a little silver to eat, your flesh hurts as if you have drilled your heart, how can you be so slammed?" ”

Lai Chengdao: "Of course, the ministers dare not disobey His Majesty's will, and of course the ministers sincerely want to invite His Majesty to dinner, and want to invite your colleagues to dinner, and the ministers just want to say...... Can it be deducted in installments? ”

Poof, the sip of tea that the emperor just drank into his mouth squirted out, and it didn't waste much, Lai Cheng sat directly opposite him, and it was close, so all of them were probably sprayed on Lai Cheng.

Lai Cheng wiped his face: "Your Majesty, is this accurate?" ”

The emperor smiled and shook his head: "If this is seen by outsiders, it must be said that I am slamming and harsh, and my first auxiliary scholar is actually poor like this?" But in fact, you are not poor, you are really slamming...... I can grant your request, and the money for this meal will be deducted from you in installments. ”

Lai Cheng smiled: "Thank you, Your Majesty." ”

Emperor: "One installment plus one percent interest, you see."

How many installments are there? ”

Lai Cheng took out a piece of silver from his body and put it on the coffee table: "The minister suddenly had an epiphany, and the minister will come out now." ”

The emperor's eyes lit up: "You actually have silver on you?" ”

Lai Cheng: "A little, a little. ”

The Emperor asked, "It looks like there's anything left?" ”

Lai Cheng: "A little, a little. ”

Emperor: "Come, play two games of chess." ”

Lai Chengdu was about to cry: "Your Majesty, the minister's money is not enough to play chess with you." ”

The emperor waved his hand: "It doesn't matter, we can put as much money as you have." ”

At this time, the general of the forbidden army, Yuan Shu, stepped in, and as soon as he entered the door, he heard the emperor say that he wanted to play chess, and he groaned slightly, and then Yuan Shu turned his head and went out again, standing at the door and looking at the vast world and breathing, the general thought that it was better outside, the air was good, the vision was good, everything was good, mainly the silver in the waist bag, if His Majesty won Lai Cheng out, he just entered the door, miserable, you say miserable.

Northern.

Shen Leng leaned against the window and looked at the goose feathers and snow outside in a daze, the room was really warm, the building on Heiwu's side was a little unique, and the walls were empty, so the heat of the fireplace could quickly spread to the whole room, of course, just this room, the corridor of the Ice Yuan Palace was cold and cold.

The weather here is like this, everyone knows that the heavy snow will come, but no one knows when the heavy snow will come, after the snow falls, there is no need to worry too much about the black warriors will suddenly attack, of course, now the black warriors do not dare to attack rashly, the Ice Palace now has more than 10,000 elite Daning border army, and there is no shortage of food and grass, the black warriors know very well how difficult it will be to fight when the strength of the Ning army reaches 10,000, if it is a field battle in the plains, it is not impossible to win 10,000 Daning border troops with the strength of the black warriors outside the ice field city, but it may be very large, But now the border army has the danger of the snow-capped mountains to rely on, and the most important thing is that Shen Leng is here.

"General."

Wang Kuohai stood aside and asked angrily: "What should we do next?" If you want to take advantage of the black warriors, you have to think of a way to make the black warriors move. ”

Shen Leng shook his head: "I forgot what I told you two days ago?" ”

Shen Leng said: "I told you, the current situation is not how big this battle is, my Daning Northern Frontier Army hastily assembled, came from afar, the black warriors are faster than our people, so it will be to wait for work, if we really fight, we will suffer, even if it is just one more brother who dies, it is also a loss, so the current situation is the best, confrontation." ”

Shen Leng actually said two days ago when he discussed military affairs with Wang Kuohai and them, the most favorable situation this time is the confrontation, and the confrontation will continue, and we will talk about it in ten or eight years, but it is indeed a little reluctant to take advantage of such a confrontation, that is not Shen Leng's character......

Shen Leng's gaze returned to the window: "But to bully the black warriors outside now, there has to be a suitable time, bully them, they don't dare to bully back......"

He asked, "Xie Xicheng, is there any news from our scouts?" ”

Xie Xicheng replied: "Not yet, I have been out for three days, do you want to send another batch of lowly posts." ”

"No, you don't."

Shen Leng said: "The Black Warriors don't dare to touch our people now, even if they know that it is our scout, they are just staring, don't worry too much brothers, you will tell me as soon as the scout returns." ”

Shen Leng slowly exhaled: "If you don't do it, the palms are really itchy." ”
