Chapter 1425: Brothers work together to break gold
"Brothers working together can break gold!" Li Wanjiang didn't seem to notice Li Shi's dissatisfaction, and said with full confidence, "Last time you cooperated well in Yizhou, and this time we join forces again, we will definitely create new achievements!"
As soon as he said these words, the Battle of Yanyun became a foregone conclusion, and no one could change it.
As soon as Li Toyota came back, he didn't even have time to rest, so he immediately threw himself into the heavy logistics work. He checked money and food every day, made 800 trips to the Ministry of Industry and War, contacted the mules, horses and carts, and applied for food protection troops. He was really busy.
Open business.
When I returned home exhausted, my mind was still full of money, yellow and orange millet, neighing mules and horses, resentful soldiers, and dissatisfied colleagues...
There is also Mr. Xiao Chen, but I don’t know what Mr. Xiao will think after learning the news that we are going to attack you Yanyun?
Xiao Chen had already received the news that there was a little parrot and an awesome Yingwu Guard. They were sailing on the sea, and their contact with home was never interrupted.
He was not too shocked. This was already expected. Li Wanjiang would never give up without beating him. For this reason, Yanyun County had already made preparations a few years ago to form a large network.
It's easy to open it, waiting for the kings of Zhou Dynasty to enter the urn.
So before this battle even started, Xiao Chen had basically anticipated the outcome.
Of course, the specific development of the situation depends on the fighting situation between the two sides. Many Yanyun generals want to use this battle to conquer Yanyunguan in one go!
Although this idea is very radical, if the situation really develops to that point, it is not unfeasible...
Anyway, the message he sent back to Zhuge Xiaosheng only contained four words, "You can decide what to do." This was a complete delegation of power.
At this moment, he was full of gratitude to Sister Lin. It was said that when he set out from Yanyun, the weather was already quite cold, so he also put on a cotton robe. This was the precious cotton robe produced by Taihexiang and worth eighty taels. He had worn it for several days.
It has turned white after years of washing, but he still likes it.
It's not because this cotton coat is so expensive, but because it's a gift from my sister Ling'er, who is so considerate, and wearing it will naturally warm my brother's heart.
But the girl was only considerate once, and she gave him this one piece, and she never gave him anything else... Anyway, you can give me a single suit too, right?
This time when he came out, Sister Lin helped him pack his luggage. A large leather box wrapped in moisture-proof paper was filled with a change of clothes. Knowing that Nanyang is hot, most of them were silk summer clothes.
"So it's useless to ask for a girl!" Xiao Chen put on a summer dress and felt refreshed all over his body. He also felt uncomfortable when he saw Ling'er, "It's better to be a sister!"
"Xiao Chen, you are wrong. My sister is good, my sister is good, but they are not as good as my wife." However, the fat man had already put on summer clothes, or ice silk short-sleeved clothes, which not only looked good against the body, but were also cool and comfortable.
His shape was naturally taken care of by Qianye Ling himself. Before he felt hot, Qianye Ling had prepared suitable clothes for him early. Knowing that he was fat and afraid of heat, he thoughtfully prepared them for him.
Shorts, shirt, big sandals...
These modern clothes are all produced by Qian Zhen’s Zhenpin ready-made clothing. As the saying goes, if they are produced by Zhenpin, they must be treasures!
Although Sister Lin also likes high-end women's clothing, she is not too interested in these new men's clothing that exposes arms, legs, and toes. Besides, Xiao Chen is the governor of Yanyun, so he should dress more modestly.
So all the clothes prepared for him were blue shirts, small hats, and silk shoes. Although they were well-fitting and light, they were not as good as those of other fat people...
"Brother, he refuses to marry himself. Who is to blame?" The girl Ling'er said that she didn't blame me for this matter. She sat on the cabin with her bare feet and squinted at the vast sea, "Brother, you said the sea
Is there an end to the east?"
"Nonsense, no matter what land there is, there is an end. The seashore is the end. There is a bottomless abyss there, and all the sea water flows into it!" Sure enough, the fat man knew everything.
"Then why has the seawater not drained out for thousands of years? And where did all the seawater that flowed down go?" Ling'er held her chin in her hands and asked if she didn't understand.
"Say you're stupid, you'll have a runny nose right away!" said the fat man, "The sea water will flow down and reach the Dragon King's Crystal Palace. Then the Dragon King will lead a group of Thunder Gods and Lightning Women, Tuiyun Boyzi, Buwu Langjun and so on.
Lift it to the sky and turn it into rainwater and pour it down again."
Not to mention the explanation is quite reasonable.
"I heard that there are many treasures in the Crystal Palace. I really want to see them!" Ling'er said. "It's a pity that the patrolling Yaksha we met last time ran away. Otherwise, we would have been able to go there if we had caught him and led the way."
"You're a useless little girl who gets sick even on a boat, and you still want to go to the Undersea Crystal Palace? You're not afraid of drowning!" said the fat man.
"I can hold my breath!" Linger was really not afraid of drowning.
"Listen to Fatty's nonsense. This sea has no boundaries because the earth is round. If you keep sailing to the east, you will eventually come back here." Xiao Chen said.
"Everyone, listen, who is talking nonsense?" The fat man saw Wu Hanming walking over to him while he was laughing strangely, and asked him, "Hanming, what do you think is the end of the sea?"
"I don't know what is at the end of the sea, but below the end of the white clouds is Xiao Lin Haitang's Japanese fleet." Wu Hanming would not participate in their wonderful words, and sometimes he would get confused just by listening to them.
"Well, she's quite punctual." Xiao Chen took out his pocket watch, took a look at it, and nodded.
His previous watch was given to Brother Shenzhao as a token of friendship. Now this one is new and new-style. It not only has hour hand, minute hand, second hand, date, but also a small compass, which belongs to the current Yantai.
Cloud latest styles.
Because the craftsmanship is too sophisticated and complicated, mass production is currently not possible. It only costs a few hundred yuan in total and is not sold to the outside world. It is exclusively used by Yanyun's army.
There are the most in the navy, but only those at the captain level have them.
"Haha, those Yanyun Navy soldiers following us will definitely be shocked." Wu Hanming said with a smile.
"I'm an old acquaintance of Zi Rui. I see that he's been quite frightened these days, so don't scare him. I'll send him a message later, saying that we're doing a joint exercise with the Japanese Navy." Xiao Chen said with a smile.
Lin Zirui led more than a dozen warships to follow them from Haining Bay. Of course, he did not intend to attack them because the power gap between them was too great. He was ordered to monitor Xiao Chen's movements.
At first, he followed him furtively, but later Xiao Chen sent someone to deliver two shipments of cans, telling him not to be so sneaky, and to follow him closer. If he can't keep up with you later, why are you kidding?
When Lin Zirui thought that this was the case, he simply followed their fleet group and acted as a rearguard.
He also received top-secret news from the capital, saying that in the near future, Fengyang King Li Feng would attack Yanyun County, and asked him to keep an eye on Xiao Chen. Once he found signs of the other party returning to the army, he must fight with all his strength.
