A scholar of Zhenguan in the Tang Dynasty

"That's enough, that's enough!" Gu Qing interrupted him, "Your Majesty has orders, it sounds weird."

"Actually, the general knows exactly what the Marquis of Gu Qing wants to do, so he can't take a group of civilians out to sea." Li Junxian also said seriously, "And your Majesty also said that you, Gu Qing, are dishonest, let me watch it. "

"Do I look like the kind of person who hides money secretly?" Gu Qing said anxiously, "Businessmen pay attention to integrity."

"The last general hasn't said that Master Gu Qing will hide money privately." Li Junxian said with a straight face.

Li Zhi stood aside, "Hehe!"

Gu Qing stomped his feet: "Too much deception."

Wang Jin smiled and said to Gu Qing, "Master Gu, are these artillery sent to the East China Sea?"

"Long time no see." Gu Qing smiled and cupped his hands, "You are in good health these days."

"Alright." Wang Jin said with a smile, "Now the Firearms Bureau is still waiting for Gu Houye's new firearms. I don't know when Gu Houye will be able to make some new firearms."

"There will be, there will be." Gu Qing said.

"The old slave will wait and see." Wang Jin also smiled.

Seeing more than 30 cannons facing the door of his house, Gu Qing shuddered and said, "Send these cannons to the East China Sea. Give them to Shangguanyi and he will know how to do them. Once the food and firearms arrive in the East China Sea You can go to sea immediately to do business."

"Let's go!" Wang Jin said loudly.

Li Junxian led people with firearms and set off towards the East China Sea.

Watching a large group of people leave, Li Zhi's eyes were full of anticipation.

"I don't know how the war between Goguryeo and Wa Kingdom is going." Gu Qinglai thought about it, "Should we try to persuade them to fight?"

"Why?" Li Zhi understood a little bit, "What does it have to do with us if they beat them?"

"Of course it has something to do with it." Gu Qing said seriously, "If both Wa Kingdom and Goguryeo are finished, how can Shangguanyi take advantage of it!"

Li Zhi smiled wryly, "Gu Qing, it turns out that you took advantage of the opportunity to enter your business, and you really didn't have any good intentions."

"His Royal Highness, the Japanese kingdom is not my race." Gu Qing said in a deep voice, "I don't feel at ease if I don't kill them from the root!"

Looking at Gu Qing, Li Zhi wanted to understand what Gu Qing was going to do to the Wa country, and said again, "The Wa country is really not strong."

"It's not strong now!" Gu Qing grinned, "People's hearts can turn a mediocre person into a hungry wolf. Your Royal Highness, we can't just look in front of our eyes. Feng Shui turns around."

"Sometimes I just can't figure out why there are so many wars."

Li Zhi is still Li Zhi, Gu Qing saw that the child has grown up a lot now, "It's okay, His Royal Highness Jin Wang, don't think so much, you just need to keep breathing and be innocent."

"Hmph!" Li Zhi turned his head and walked into the house.

On an autumn night, the wind was blowing, the fat monk and the short man sat outside the pen studio for a long time, swaying in the cold wind, and then returned to the pen studio to drink wine and listen to the wind.

Chapter 455 Set sail

In the late autumn of the 19th year of Zhenguan, the cold wind swept across the land of the Central Plains before it even entered the autumn. The villagers walking on the road locked their necks and stepped up.

"It's really cold outside." Li Zhi shrank his neck and walked in and closed the door, blocking the cold wind outside.

"Come and try!" Gu Qing handed a high collar to Li Zhi.

"What is this?" Li Zhi looked strange.

Gu Qing put the high collar on Li Zhi's neck, and buttoned it around his neck, "This way you won't be cold."

"Sure enough, it's much more comfortable." Li Zhi stretched his neck, "It's just uncomfortable."

"Just get used to it." Xiao Sizi also said, "Brother Huang, this kang is very comfortable."

Li Zhi sat on the kang and talked, "Gu Qing, I just heard the news that after Goguryeo attacked the Wa Kingdom, it was retreating steadily, and the father wanted to give Goguryeo food, grass and weapons. Fortunately, Nanzhao sent enough food, otherwise Someone in the DPRK is going to make peace again."

"The thugs in Goguryeo are really not good enough." Gu Qing felt the warmth of his home, his second child was about to be born, and the old man said that it would be just half a month, and the difference would not be too much.

The servants in the family put all their focus on Wu Mei.

Li Zhi asked puzzledly, "Thugs?"

"Yes, thugs." Gu Qing said to Li Zhi, "Goguryeo is our thugs. They need the resources of the Wa Kingdom to strengthen themselves, and we also need Goguryeo to attack the Wa Kingdom, and then reach a consensus! Sit on a piece of cake and share the spoils!"

"It really is a bad guy!" Li Zhi looked at Gu Qing.

"His Royal Highness, I am a good person." Gu Qing nodded solemnly.

Wu Mei said while knitting, "I already know how to do it, how can a man do needlework."

"Idle is idle." Gu Qing said, and then said to Li Zhi, "Is there any talk about the East China Sea?"

"Why do I feel that you are ordering me?" Li Zhi ate a piece of dried meat with an expression of dissatisfaction.

This kid is growing up and getting better and better!Not as easy to fool as before, Gu Qing sighed sadly, "His Royal Highness, I really miss the way you were crying while eating your own rabbit."

Li Zhi bit off a piece of jerky again and chewed hard.

On the coastline of the East China Sea of ​​Tang Dynasty, Shangguanyi was standing on the big ship, and there was a vast ocean in front of him. The three ships had been tested for more than ten times, and there were one or two accidents, but none of them were major problems. The current navigation is very stable .

The northwest wind was getting stronger and stronger, and Shangguanyi who returned to the shore also saw Li Junxian who accompanied him this time.

Wu Laoqi is alone now, and he didn't bring his brothers with him when he came to the East China Sea. Although he made friends with many civilian husbands, he didn't know if it would be helpful to him in the future if he made friends casually. Elite soldiers are very afraid, they have always been born recklessly, and they instinctively reject this kind of soldier.

Li Junxian didn't talk much, and he was stationed aside with his soldiers, waiting to go to sea without doing anything.

Shangguanyi began to prepare food and water sources. Sea water and dry food are very important. After three days, everything will be ready. Li Junxian looked at the three big boxes of plums curiously, "What are you doing with these things?"

"The general doesn't know something." Shangguanyi explained, "This is a very sour plum. After several experiments, many people would faint after being on the boat for a long time. These plums will be much better in the future."

Li Junxian also pulled out a lot of luggage and a lot of weapons, enough for everyone to grab a handful.

Wu Laoqi skillfully danced the horizontal knife in his hand to feel the weight, and he still saw the thirty artillery mounted on three large ships.

Shangguanyi looked at the big ship, "I don't know how Gu Qing made it. He seems to have experience in going to sea. This kind of sea ship is very suitable for both naval battles and long-distance voyages."

"Can we go?" Li Junxian said.

Shangguanyi took out the compass and the chart to check the wind direction and said, "It's time to go."

"Okay!" Li Junxian boarded the boat first with three thousand elite soldiers.

Shangguanyi instructed a few trained sailors and then boarded the ship. Not many people were taken on a sea expedition, and [-] civilians were brought along. Anyway, the ship was big enough, so some students from the academy were left at the port to watch. with.
