"Woo ......"

With the loud whistle sounding through the sky, the three warships finally approached the small harbor of Owu Island.

As soon as the battleship approached the port, the Jinmu guards stationed on Oku Island immediately came forward to greet them on the warship.

"Lord Wang, you're here!"

It was Li Sanduo who led the team to greet him, but as long as Li Yuanba's decision was made, they, the soldiers and generals of the Shenwu Guard, would never doubt it and resolutely support it.

Therefore, he set off seven days earlier than Li Yuanba, and soon arrived at Owu Island by sailing ship, informing the garrison on the island to make preliminary preparations.

"Well, what's happened on the island lately?" While instructing the soldiers of the Shenwu Guard to move the firearms that could be used off the boat, he asked Li Sanduo about the situation on the island.

"Lord Wang, it's weird!" Li Sanduo took a big piece from Li Yuanba's hand and said with a smile: "In the past, the Ryukyu royal family would send troops to harass us, but recently it suddenly died down, and even the Ryukyu garrison on the opposite island of Okinawa has retreated, I really don't know what they are doing!" ”

Li Yuanba walked down the battleship and said, "Oh? It seems that they are also consciously avoiding something! ”

"We have sent people to infiltrate Okinawa Oshima and the main island of the Ryukyus, and I believe they will be able to send back the news soon!" Li Sanduo followed behind Li Yuanba's ass and continued: "You have a good rest on the island first, and when the news comes back, let's see the situation, what do you think?" ”

"Hmm!" Li Yuanba bowed slightly, and changed the topic: "Are there any people from our Tang Dynasty on this island?" ”

"Yes!" Li Sanduo said: "The people on the Ryukyu Islands are actually the people of our Tang Dynasty, but their ancestors all migrated here during the war, so they slowly integrated here. “

"Do the Ryukyuan people have any reaction to our arrival?" Li Shimin had heard of this for a long time, but he didn't expect that the Ryukyuan people on this small island were all ordinary people of the Tang Dynasty.

"There was some resistance at first!"

Li Sanduo shook his head. Said: "However, our Datang adhered to the order you set before, did not commit any atrocities to the local Ryukyu people, and consciously helped them, and finally won their approval." Now, except for some extremely stubborn people, everyone else is convinced of us, and no one dares to resist! ”

Walking to the edge of the port, Li Sanduo beckoned the soldiers on the port to put up the deck, and continued: "Lord Wang, this Aowu Island has a developed fishing industry, so most of the residents on the island make a living from fishing. In addition, we have added three more ports after we came here, so the trade aspect has gradually flourished! ”

Li Yuanba nodded knowingly and said, "Have the brothers' residences been arranged?" ”

Li Sanduo pointed to the jungle in the distance and said, "After all, we haven't been here for a long time, so after opening a few more ports, we simply zoned this dock into a military dock." As for the brothers' residences, they haven't been built yet, and all the brothers are temporarily living in tents, but the construction of the residences is already underway! ”

He said this. Li Yuanba took the lead in walking towards the big tent of the Chinese army, and after entering the big tent, Li Yuanba picked up a glass of water from the table and asked Li Sanduo, "How is it." Has the other party set a time and place for the meeting? ”

Li Yuanba did not mention the specific name of the other party, but the weight of Li Jiancheng's three words was too heavy, even for these Shenwuwei henchmen who were most sincere to him, Li Yuanba did not dare to easily say the name of Li Jiancheng.

"Lord Wang. The time and place have been decided, and the location is on an island and reef on the side of Okubu Island and Okinawa Oshima! Li Sanduo thought about it and said.

"How do you arrange it on an island?" Li Yuanba's brows furrowed.

Li Sanduo smiled. Said: "Lord, that island and reef are very big, and after so many years, there are some vegetation on it, and there are some houses used for living, and there will always be fishermen on several nearby islands on weekdays, and they will go to the island to rest after they are tired of fishing!" ”

"Who are you meeting with this king this time?" Li Yuanba put down the teacup in his hand and said.

"At the time of the boundary, in addition to the prince and the leader of the other party, we also agreed with each other that each side can choose to bring ten elite guards to the islands and reefs, and the ships of the two sides must not come within a certain range of the islands and reefs." Li Sanduo bowed and replied, "As for the time, the other party said that the location was chosen by them, and the time will be determined by us!" ”

"Ten guards?" Li Yuanba's brows furrowed, and he said, "What about the situation on the islands and reefs?" ”

"Smack!"

Li Sanduo clapped his hands, and a soldier of the Tang Dynasty Navy walked in, he first saluted Li Yuanba, and then took out a topographical map of the Ryukyu Islands from his body and spread it on the table in front of Li Yuanba.

Li Sanduo nodded to the Tang Dynasty soldier, then pointed to a small red dot on the map that was specially marked, and said:

"My lord, please see, the Oku Island where we are now belongs to the Okinawa Okinawa Island among the Ryukyu Islands. It is located in the southern part of Okinawa Oshima, but the distance between it and Okinawa Okinawa is not too far, only three miles away. ”

While saying this, Li Sanduo pointed to a small blue dot marked on the map and said:

"This is the reef, known locally as 'Fish and Bird Island', and although it may not seem to be connected to either of them, it is connected to the two large islands during the high tide of the year, revealing the beach beneath the water! Of course, there are only a few times a year when pedestrians can walk on the beach to the reef! ”

"Oh?" Li Yuanba sighed in some surprise and said, "There are still such strange things? ”

"Yes, just three or four times a year, the big ebb tide will attract people from our Datang and surrounding Fanbangs to watch, and the scene can be said to be extremely hot!"

To be honest, when he first heard the news, Li Sanduo couldn't believe it, but after many researches, Li Sanduo found that this matter was true, so he believed it.

"Hmph, you can't get close to the reef!" Li Yuanba knew that this was out of consideration for the security of both sides, but the range of Li Xu was not a problem at all for the Shenwuwei army.

In terms of the attack power of the steam battleship, if you want to attack the fish and bird islands, it is trivial.

Li Sanduo naturally understood what Li Yuanba meant, so he just laughed.

"Okay, since that's the case, then you go and inform the other party, as for the time......" Li Yuanba groaned a little and continued: "It's set in a week!" ”

"No!"

Li Sanduo responded and immediately bowed down to receive the order.

In fact, as early as the day he came to Aowu Island, he began to actively prepare for the meeting, and this guy even took fifty soldiers of the Shenwu Guard, and touched the reef of Birdfish Island at night, and arranged it very well.

If the other party dares to be unfavorable to Li Yuanba, I am afraid that he will be destroyed on the spot by Li Sanduo's arrangement.

……

After seeing Li Sanduo take the order to leave, Li Yuanba stood up from his seat and stretched.

Su Dingfang, who had not spoken from beginning to end, saw a trace of Li Yuanba's tiredness, so he stepped forward and said, "Lord Wang, are you tired, why don't you let the people below arrange a place for you to live and have a good rest?" ”

Li Yuanba shook his head and said to Su Dingfang with a smile: "Dingfang, the weather in Dengzhou is different from the weather on this island on the sea!" It's still early to eat, so how about this king see the scenery of this Owu Island and accompany him to the beach? ”

"I don't dare to ask for ears!"

Su Dingfang has been dealing with the military and political affairs of Dengzhou some time ago, and now he has a rare time to rest, so he is naturally willing.

At that moment, the master and servant prepared a little, and went to the direction of the beach in a relatively thin robe.

Compared with the weather in the inland of Datang, the weather on this island is much warmer, and at such a high temperature, it is naturally cooler to dress like this.

After walking for less than a quarter of an hour, the two of them were on the beach.

Li Yuanba rolled up his robe like a child, then took off his shoes directly, and walked barefoot on the beach.

But this guy's idea is good, but the reality is cruel.

This guy can't bear it after walking a distance of dozens of feet, although this beach has been rested for a certain time, but after all, it is still a wild beach, and in addition to sand, there are many small stones on the beach, as well as small debris such as shells.

If this guy really walked around barefoot on it, even if this guy had rough skin and thick flesh, he would be lame in a hundred feet.

"Damn, this is the same as Emperor Qin in the previous life. The island can't be compared at all! Li Yuanba put his shoes back on depressedly, but scolded in his heart, "After I go back, I have to let those boys clean up the beach if you say anything!" ”

The sun shines on the sand, and the endless stretch of beach glows gold...... What a dream!

Seeing that Li Yuanba's expression seemed to be a little depressed, Su Dingfang thought that he was worried about this meeting, and said, "Lord Wang, are you worried about this meeting?" ”

"Huh?" Li Yuanba was stunned for a moment and said, "No, it's okay......"

Su Dingfang still didn't understand Li Yuanba's words, but Su Dingfang still didn't know anything about the current matter, he was just blindly following Li Yuanba's orders.

The two walked forward in silence, and Li Yuanba suddenly asked out of a headless question: "Dingfang, can this king believe you?" ”

Su Dingfang was shocked, and after Li Yuanba's words landed, he knelt directly behind Li Yuanba, and said, "Lord Wang, the last general is panicked!" (To be continued.) )
