Chapter 1,393 Gathering at the dock

Soga Yuichi's actions made Emperor Kogoku very satisfied. He should use actions to tell the officials that they cannot disobey my words.

"Which of you has any objections now?" Emperor Kogi also asked.

"I don't dare." The officials could only grit their teeth and endure this tone.

"Hahaha..." Emperor Kogi laughed heartily, "Since you have no objections, please step aside."

"Yes." All the officials left the palace.

Although they were furious in their hearts, they could not let it out. Because the military power was in the hands of Emperor Kogoku, and if they rebelled, their lives would be at risk and the entire family would be affected.

After they left, Nakamura said: "Your Majesty, you seem to have a bad breath."

Emperor Kogi said: "Don't you feel happy?"

Nakamuragi smiled slightly and said: "I am also happy. Although we hold military power, we lack a powerful general and cannot command the three armies.

But now it’s good, General Yuichi has become the commander-in-chief of the three armies, and General Yuichi has a very high prestige in the army, so he can lead the three armies faster."

Soga Yuichi said: "Your Majesty, Prime Minister, I only promised His Majesty the Emperor to serve as the general while you are going to Chang'an of the Tang Dynasty. I will resign from the position of general when you come back."

"Isn't General Yuichi going to abandon your soldiers again?"

"enough."

Nakamura wanted to say something else but was stopped by Emperor Kogi.

Emperor Kogi looked at Yuichi Soga, smiled, and said: "Yuichi, go find Yako, she will go to Chang'an with me tomorrow, and this separation will take at least two months.

After not seeing each other for two months, you will definitely miss each other very much."

As if being told something that was on his mind, Soga Yuichi nodded and said, "Thank you, His Majesty the Emperor. I will take my leave."

After Soga Yuichi left, Nakamuragi asked in confusion: "Your Majesty, why don't you let me express my feelings towards General Yuichi and understand him rationally?

I am 80% certain that Soga Yuichi can continue to serve as the general."

"Stupid." Emperor Kogoku said angrily, "Nakamura, you are a smart man, why are you so confused at the critical moment? If you say so much to Soga Yuichi now, if he is disgusted, we can still go to Datang with peace of mind.

What's more, the person we should convince is not Soga Yuichi, but Soga Yako.

As long as Soga Yako agrees, do you think Soga Yuichi will refuse?"

Nakamura suddenly realized it and said: "His Majesty the Emperor is so wise and powerful that even the most humble ministers can't match him."

Only then did he realize that Emperor Kogi was actually not as stupid and cowardly as he thought, and everything seemed to be a disguise.

…

The next day, near the dock, a huge battleship aroused great tension among the Fuso soldiers.

The soldiers on the dock immediately reported the matter to the court.

Emperor Kogi, Nakamuragi, Soga Yuichi and a group of civil and military officials and the common people all came to know about this matter, and they all came to the dock.

In particular, Soga Yuichi also led an army. He was the first to arrive at the scene and prepared defense work.

After Emperor Kogi and the others arrived at the dock, they saw the huge battleship and couldn't help but take a deep breath. Compared with the other's, their own warship was simply insignificant and completely unqualified to compare with others.

Soga Yuichi came to Emperor Kogoku and said: "Your Majesty, it is not clear whether this warship is an enemy or a friend. I suggest you leave the dock first to avoid danger."

Nakamuramu said: "Could this be a warship of the Tang Dynasty? Aren't we going to the Tang Dynasty by boat today? We might as well ask General Chai first."

Emperor Huangji nodded and said: "Well, it's useless to rely on guessing. Is Chai Lingwu at the inn? Prime Minister, why don't you go there yourself."

"Yes." Nakamuragi responded.

"Wait a minute." Su Woxiong said directly to the battleship, "Look, a small boat has been put down next to the battleship, and they are rowing towards the dock."

Nakamuragi stopped and looked at the boat rowing over with Emperor Kogi and others. There were two people on the boat, one was rowing, and the other was standing and waving to the boat.

Everyone on the dock was confused as to who he was greeting.

After everyone waited patiently, they gradually saw clearly that the person waving to them was Chai Lingwu.

"Why is it him?" Many people were wondering curiously.

Nakamura suddenly realized and said: "My guess was correct. This is indeed a warship of the Tang Dynasty. I didn't expect Chai Lingwu to have arrived early, and I almost took the wrong path."

Then he said to Emperor Kogi: "His Majesty the Emperor, Chai Lingwu should be here to pick us up on the ship. We don't need to prepare our own warship."

Emperor Kogi frowned slightly and said, "Do you think it's okay to let us take their boat?"

Nakamura was enlightened and said: "I understand. On the spot, I asked people to put all the things and the servants on our ship."

Emperor Huangji nodded and said: "Well, let's do it. The two of us will come over, Chai Lingwu."

"Yes." Nakamuragi responded.

Then he called the sailors, maids and eunuchs to board their own ship, and then returned to Emperor Kogoku.

Emperor Kogoku ordered Soga Yuichi to control the dock and not allow idlers to enter the dock. He even drove the officials out of the dock, thinking that they were redundant at the dock and might as well go to work.

Soon, in addition to the soldiers guarding the entire dock, the only four people left were Emperor Kogoku, brother and sister Soga Yuichi, and Nakamuragi.

The small boat Chai Lingwu took quickly arrived at the dock. After landing, he walked up to Emperor Kogi and bowed his hands in salute: "I have met His Majesty the Emperor."

Emperor Huangji smiled and said: "General Chai, there is no need to be polite."

"Thank you, His Majesty the Emperor." Chai Lingwu put down his hand, "Your Majesty the Emperor, I am ready. I wonder if you are ready?"

Emperor Kogi said with a smile: "We are also ready. We originally planned to ask Nakamura to go to the inn to find you, but we didn't expect that you gave us a big surprise.

Is that warship the latest warship of the Tang Dynasty?"

Chai Lingwu shook his head and said: "I don't know, I really haven't paid attention to this matter. However, when I was in Chang'an, I heard that Li Feng was already studying iron ships. I don't know if he has succeeded."

"Iron ship? Are there really iron ships?" Emperor Kogi asked.

"What? Your Majesty the Emperor has ever heard of iron ships?" Chai Lingwu asked curiously.

"That's right." Emperor Kogi nodded, "Orihime said this. The last time she came back to Fuso, she came back in an iron boat with Prince Tou."

"Did it really succeed?" Chai Lingwu was shocked.

Everyone could tell from Chai Lingwu's expression that he really didn't know about this.
