Chapter 537: The Pigeon Communication on whether to lick the Master (Fifth Watch)
But after all, he is a filial child, considering that he cannot bear the reputation of an abandoned father.
Therefore, he decided to go to the Fujiwara Kingdom first and sort out the government affairs of the court for the leader of the Fujiwara Kingdom and clean up the traitors in the court.
If you plan the development of Fujiwara Country for the next thirty to fifty years, he will return.
Can those words be told to Tong Guan? Cai Jing feels that it is better for him to continue to bear the ugliness in silence without speaking out about it, so as to make it look embarrassing.
Just then, facing Tong Guan's questioning look, the wily Cai Jing shook his head with worry.
"No, where is my elder brother?"
"Did his elder brother reply to the letter, telling him that he frequently killed enemies and made meritorious deeds in Fujiwara Country?"
"I don't want to come back at all. I just want to piss our family off to death."
The dark-faced Tong Guan was embarrassed to say that in the letter, Tong Guan was smarter than that evil beast, so he told himself proudly.
As of now, he has been called the Evil Ghost King of the Song Dynasty by Japanese soldiers whose body is no longer than his waist.
Whenever he picks up that Buddhist weapon and walks on the battlefield, he will become the focus of the entire battlefield.
And he told Tong Guan very proudly that he was in the Song Dynasty, and he might not be able to survive if he fought against a hundred people.
But whether he is in the Japanese country, one horse can equal a thousand, and the fault lies in Hua Dong. I believe that it will not take too long, whether he is in the Japanese country or not in the Fujiwara country, the legend of the evil ghost king of the Song Dynasty will forever remain.
Is that a good thing about riding on a horse? That bastard actually thought it was to his liking. I asked him to come from Bianliang, Tokyo, and really wanted to let that bastard taste his fist to see if it would be more to his liking.
"The officials have mistakenly entrusted these two with important tasks. I'm afraid they won't be able to come back at that time."
"Ruming, our family hopes that the incident in Fujiwara Country will end as soon as possible. Otherwise, they are afraid that they will find their own reasons to stay in that foreign land."
"I don't know if there is anything worth remembering in that small barbarian country."
Listening to Tong Guan's obviously angry complaints, Cai Jing silently stroked his long beard, wondering if that vulgar boy of mine was going to kill people and set fires for fun.
As for Cai's dog, he was happy to be a local emperor there, but he would not be happy to go home and be beaten to pieces.
Please, please write a letter to Rokuro yourself and try to coax him back with soft words?
Rubbing the fingers of his legs that had not used a ruler for a long time, Cai Jing began to seriously consider the possibility.
When he thought about it, Cai Jing's self-esteem really didn't allow him to do that.

After receiving the news from the court, Yang Douzhi returned to the Imperial City and summoned the Zhao adban.
"I've seen Yang Douzhi, but I don't know why Douzhi called the last general?"
"Zhao Abban, how are the training of those pigeons Ruming going?" Yang Douzhi asked Zhao Abban with concern.
"I know that after more than half a year of training, those pigeons can return to their nests two hundred miles away in one to one and a half hours."
"No, sometimes homing pigeons are injured or even killed by birds of prey."
"So, starting from the beginning of the month, every time they train, they will fly in groups of two pigeons. This way, they can ensure that the message delivered will not be delayed."
As for the homing pigeon thing, Gao Zhang already had the idea of that thing when he left for Jiangnan and was left in Jiangnan to take up his post.
After all, it is more than 1,600 miles from Suzhou to Bianliang, Tokyo. Even if it is not 800 miles by express delivery, it will take almost two days and two nights to arrive.
Sometimes, Gao Zhang wanted to talk to his master about something and increase the relationship between master and apprentice. Naturally, it was inconvenient to use the eight-hundred-mile and six-hundred-mile express delivery, which could only be used unless there was an urgent military situation.
But if carrier pigeons are used, I'm afraid the speed will be very fast compared to the 800 miles that wastes people and money.
Did Gao Zhang remember that he had read the news that three thousand homing pigeons were released from Kaifeng, and it would take seven to eight hours to reach Yancheng, Jiangsu Province, which is more than 500 kilometers away?
The distance from Suzhou to Bianliang, Tokyo is only 800 kilometers, and if it is not 200 to 300 miles away, a pigeon station will be set up.
It is entirely possible to reach Suzhou from Tokyo Bianliang in one day.
Even though homing pigeons are light and cannot carry heavy objects, there is no problem if they are used to convey messages.
So when Yang Duzhi was ordered to return to Bianliang, Tokyo, after the Zhu family rebellion in Jiangnan was settled, Gao Zhang told him in detail the benefits and advantages of using carrier pigeons to deliver messages.
And Yang Douzhi also knew very well that this project was not a good project that could easily be rewarded.
After returning to Bianliang, Tokyo, the important task was directly entrusted to the second-in-command of the Imperial City Division, Zhao Adban, to take full responsibility.
Now that he heard Zhao Abban's report as if he had done something good, Yang Douzhi felt relieved.
Now that the pigeon station from Tokyo Bianliang to Suzhou has been set up, it has passed the test and is running well.
Naturally, it was no longer suitable to use this pigeon station to report the good news to the champion.

Soon, Yang Douzhi personally copied the good news that the officials of the Song Dynasty had discussed with the courtiers and copied it on the two very thin silk strips.
After the ink was dry, Zhao Yaban took it upon himself to roll up the two pieces of silk cloth, and then carefully stuffed them into two very thin copper mailboxes.
The thickness of each of the two copper mailboxes is only about the thickness of a little finger.
After stuffing it in, plugging it tightly with a stopper and sealing it with wax, he and Yang Duzhi came to the corner of the Imperial City, a courtyard specially opened for training homing pigeons.
Zhao Abban called Chen Kuaixing (the name of the imperial city official) who was in charge of the carrier pigeons. Chen Kuaixing tied the two copper mailboxes to the legs of the two strong carrier pigeons.
After that, he opened the pigeon cage and released the two homing pigeons one after another into the sky.
Looking at the two blue-gray homing pigeons, they disappeared into the sky in an instant.
Yang Douzhi couldn't help but look forward to it. He believed that when the No. 1 Scholar received the informative letter, he would be highly praised for the work of the Imperial City Division.
"Zhao Adban, how are the preparations for the pigeon station in the northwest? Can Duke Zhuang Yuan explain this matter repeatedly?"
"You all know, please rest assured. Ruming, whether it is Qinfeng Road or Yongxing Military Road, there are already enough pigeon stations, but the current pigeon training time is very long."
"If you want to see a big impact, I'm afraid you'll have to wait at least three to five months."
"Well, I've worked hard too. It's best to do it as soon as possible. In case one day, the officials want to ask Xixia to use it."
"When the time comes, our Imperial City Division can grasp the military situation immediately, which will be a great achievement."
"You all know, don't worry, the general will definitely supervise them and won't slack off."
The fifth update is finally achieved, keep working hard tomorrow
