Chapter 104: Returning with a Great Victory
The sky-shattering artillery on the Chu warship lifted the sea several feet high, and huge stones and dirt rose into the sky, and then roared and smashed into the water. The battle lasted for a whole day, and after the mourning bird was killed by Zhao Yue, the upper part of the White Fog Island was temporarily quiet, and it was impossible to figure out what the other party was going to do next.
Duan Baiyue was just thinking about letting Chu Yuan go back to rest for a while, but Ye Jin hurriedly ran into the cabin, saying that the other party had moved again.
Dotted gloom gathered on the other side, previously thought it was witchcraft or phosphorus fire, but later it turned out to be a pair of eyes.
"It's a sea monkey." Duan Baiyue said.
"A monster at the bottom of the sea?" Chu Yuan asked.
"The East China Sea is vast, and no one can tell what's going on." Duan Baiyue said, "Forget it, blow up a batch first." β
Shen Qianfan waved his hand and ordered, and the sound of artillery fire sounded intensively again, and a group of sea monkeys at the forefront screamed and fell into the water, and the blood instantly stained the sea red. Seeing this, the sea monkeys in the rear were furious, roared and swarmed forward, jumped into the sea one after another, and quickly paddled with their slender front paws, and pounced on the Great Chu warship under cannon fire.
Shen Qianfan made a quick decision and made the two largest ironclad warships block the front to protect the rest of the warships from being approached by these monsters. Duan Baiyue patted Chu Yuan's shoulder: "Be careful yourself." β
Chu Yuan said: "Act when you see the opportunity, don't be strong." β
Duan Baiyue nodded, jumped onto the front warship, the Xuanming Cold Iron glowed with cold light in the night, splitting one sea monkey after another in half, and in the next moment, more of the same kind emerged from the sea.
Sharp nails and fangs take only a few moments to tear a ship through a rift. Frog stood on the shore, holding a torch and laughing fiercely. Seeing that more and more Great Chu warships were damaged, Ye Jin hurriedly said, "Do you want to withdraw first?" β
As soon as the words fell, someone came behind him to report: "There are also enemy troops in the rear!" β
A huge warship was slowly approaching in the white mist, and the eyes above it were still dense, green and hideousβthere were at least hundreds of them.
The other party was obviously prepared, Chu Yuan closed his eyes slightly, and then said in a deep voice: "Rush forward!" β
Ye Jin and Shen Qianfan glanced at each other, this is indeed the only way out at present, but ...... I'm afraid that there will be heavy casualties.
The horn sounded, Duan Baiyue cut the last sea monkey beside him into the sea, and wanted to go back to Chu Yuan's side to protect him, but there was an exclamation in the distance.
In the vast night, a huge ship is rapidly breaking through the waves, and the sails are full of stars. On both sides of the giant ship, there are countless warships wrapped in iron armor, and the young warriors of the East China Sea hold strong swords and β‘β‘, and their voices are shaking the sky.
"It's King Daming! King Daming is here! "Some people in the Chu army were once fishermen in the East China Sea, so naturally they have heard countless legends about him.
Duan Baiyue was overjoyed, Chu Yuan turned around and stepped onto the watchtower in a few steps, watching the giant ship get closer and closer from a distance.
"Your Majesty?" Shen Qianfan asked.
Chu Yuan nodded slightly, not knowing what mood he should be in.
Shen Qianfan took the order, and then ordered loudly: "Retreat!" β
The exhausted Great Chu Navy finally had a moment of respite, and the giant ship crushed in an unstoppable manner, and the celestial silk net covered with iron thorn barbs was thrown into the sea, killing groups of sea monkeys with severe poison. The Mertail people stood at the bow of the ship, bending their bows to the full moon, and the arrows that glittered with cold light twined into a web in the air, piercing one heart after another.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Qing Qiu wanted to escape but was captured alive, and Chu Cheng was also killed by Zhao Yue. As the day dawned, the battle was nearing its end.
Looking at King Daming's fleet again, it has long disappeared without a trace, as if it has never appeared.
The Chu army won a complete victory, and the East China Sea region rejoiced. In the afternoon of this day, Duan Baiyue knocked on the door and said, "I'm in?" β
Chu Yuan said: "No." β
Duan Baiyue pushed open the door and walked in.
Chu Yuan said lazily: "You dare to resist and disobey." β
"I heard Sixi say that I didn't even eat lunch." Duan Baiyue sat opposite him, "The battle is over, what are you busy with?" β
"I want to rebuild Yunfu." Chu Yuan said.
Duan Baiyue said: "To King Daming? β
Chu Yuan shook his head: "I'm afraid that King Daming won't come back, and he is much more comfortable in the East China Sea than in this Dakun City." It's just that twenty years ago, my father was deceived by villains and made a big mistake, and after twenty years, I can't do anything else, at least I can rebuild Yunfu and turn it into a good hall or a academy, so that the people on this side also have a thought. β
Duan Baiyue nodded: "You make the decision, I'll do it for you." β
"At most, in two months, I will have to return to the court." Chu Yuan said, "This battle is quite smooth, the army does not have too many casualties, and it won't be long before the war starts again and directly attacks Nanyang." β
Duan Baiyue put her hands on his shoulders: "So you want to be separated from me for another year?" β
Chu Yuan said: "It's only a year. β
"A year isn't long enough." Duan Baiyue touched his forehead, "For more than three hundred days and nights, I am alone." β
Chu Yuan smiled: "Go out for a walk?" I was stuffy in this room for a day. β
Duan Baiyue nodded, and just stood up with him, but Sixi reported outside, saying that General Shen asked to see him.
"Your Majesty, King of the Southwest." Shen Qianfan had some sand on his body, and it was estimated that he had just returned from the seaside camp, and he had not yet had time to bathe and change his clothes.
"But what happened?" Chu Yuan asked.
"Back to the emperor." Shen Qianfan said, "Fang Cai will receive a message from the Heavenly Eagle Pavilion, saying that Li Que has run away. β
Duan Baiyue frowned.
Chu Yuan said: "Ran away? Where did it go? β
"I don't know, but there is a β‘β‘ chance, I'm afraid I'll go to the person who lied to him before." Shen Qianfan said.
"But she doesn't even know who the other party is, how can she find it?" Chu Yuan asked.
"Li Ying is also having a headache about this." Shen Qianfan said, "I don't dare to look for her all over the rivers and lakes openly, and I don't know where she ran to, and it is said that the original husband's family is also secretly chasing and killing her." β
Duan Baiyue said: "Chase and kill? β
"It's not good to spread this kind of thing, and the Weihe Gang naturally won't say it openly." Shen Qianfan said, "But it is said that the young master of the Weihe Gang was killed, and the mastermind behind it was Li Que." β
Chu Yuan: "......"
Duan Baiyue said: "So the imperial court wants to help find someone?" β
"Ordinary affairs of the rivers and lakes, the imperial court will naturally not interfere." Chu Yuan said, "But the person Li Que met back then was very likely to be Chu Xiang." β
Shen Qianfan said: "The last general understands. β
"Searching in the shadows is." Chu Yuan said, "The Southwest Mansion also sent a letter to the past, since I met it in Dali at the beginning, it is hard to guarantee that she will not go to Dali to find it again." β
Duan Baiyue nodded: "I'll repair a book and send someone to Yao'er." β
In the southwest mansion, Nanmo is counting the days with gray hair on his head.
"Master." Duan Yao squatted beside him and arched him, "If there are any black bean silkworms, give me two more." β
Nanmo took out a bottle from his bosom: "Take it." β
Duan Yao smiled: "Thank you, Master." β
"You said that this battle has been won, will the Southwest Mansion be able to do happy events?" Nanmo asked.
"The East China Sea has won, but there is also the South China Sea." Duan Yao pouted, "And even if the South China Sea is pacified, there will still be a group of old ministers in the DPRK and China." "I heard that I knelt outside the hall at every turn, kowtowing and knocking out my face full of blood, and I felt uncomfortable all over my body if I didn't ask for a day, which was more terrifying than Zhong Gu.
Nanmo sighed evilly: "Don't wait for me to enter the ground again, and the little cub will get married." β
Duan Yao patted him comfortingly, according to his brother's current progress, it is indeed very possible.
On this day, there was laughter and laughter in Dakun City, and the people were welcoming the sea god. Chu Yuan went out for a walk, and it was late at night when he returned to the mansion, but there was no one in the bedroom.
Sixi said intimately: "The king of the southwest was originally here, but someone came to look for him, so he went back to the next door." β
"Who's looking for him?" Chu Yuan asked.
Sixi said: "It looks like a person in the rivers and lakes." β
Chu Yuan nodded and didn't ask any more. I read a book in the bedroom alone for a while, and it was a full hour before someone pushed the door in.
"Finished talking?" Chu Yuan asked.
"It's the owner of Feiluan Tower." Duan Baiyue sat beside him, "Just left." β
"Jing Liutian?" Chu Yuan said, "What are you going to do?" β
"What else could it be, and for his brother." Duan Baiyue said, "After I told him about Jing Liuxuan's traces, I almost died of anger. β
Chu Yuan asked, "Why?" β
"Why else, it's collusion with the rebels." Duan Baiyue said, "Although Jing Liutian promised not to bring him back for the time being, he is just a chess piece that Da Chu has placed next to Chu Xiang, and he can listen to more news and make up for his mistakes." But he was always worried in his heart, so he sent many henchmen to Nanyang to stare at him secretly. β
Chu Yuan handed him a cup of tea: "What are you staring at?" β
Duan Baiyue said: "The waterways around Xingzhou Island have now been completely closed, and the fishermen nearby are spreading that the island is haunted, and it is a terrible ghost. β
Chu Yuan shook his head: "Nonsense." β
"Let him go in the East China Sea, and I don't know what will be tossed in the rest of the year." Duan Baiyue said, "There is such a younger brother in the family, and Brother Jing is also angry in his heart, so he specially came to inform him this time that if Da Chu starts a war one day, Feiluan Lou is also willing to help, and he can give anyone and money, just to save Jing Liu's life in the end." β
Chu Yuan said: "You can decide on this matter, you don't have to ask me." β
"Then I'll promise him." Duan Baiyue straightened his hair for him, "Don't talk about this, there are not a few people outside today, isn't it fun?" β
"You wait." Chu Yuan stood up, took a small thing from the bedside, came back and handed it to him, "I bought it at the bazaar, I'll give it to you." β
Duan Baiyue opened the mahogany box and saw that it was a thin colorful rope with a small hollow bell tied to it, and she couldn't help but laugh and said, "Give it to me?" "It's clearly the girl's favorite object.
Chu Yuan said: "The boss said, send the daughter-in-law." β
Duan Baiyue said: "Then I should also send it to you." β
Chu Yuan kicked him: "I am the emperor!" "You dare to resist.
Duan Baiyue muttered: "That doesn't matter." β
Chu Yuan slapped the table: "Four joys." β
Duan Baiyue obediently stretched out her hand: "Cheng Cheng Cheng, I'll wear it." β
Tie it around the wrist and the length is just right, so you can go around it and tie it in a dead knot.
Duan Baiyue disliked: "Who girl's wrists would be so thick." "It must not sell.
Chu Yuan said: "I sued the boss and deliberately made it longer." β
Duan Baiyue: "......"
Chu Yuan said: "Hungry." β
Duan Baiyue suddenly thought: "I'll do it for you?" β
"You can also cook?" Chu Yuan's eyes were full of distrust.
Duan Baiyue said, "Hmm." β
Chu Yuan thought for a while and shook his head: "I don't believe it, you have to eat by yourself, I want to eat." β
"Try once, just once." Duan Baiyue wrapped her arms around his shoulders, "I really know how to cook." β
Chu Yuan took his hand away: "Why haven't I heard you talk about it before." β
Duan Baiyue said: "I just learned it the day before yesterday." β
β¦β¦
Chu Yuan refused to talk to him again: "Sixi! β
Duan Baiyue covered his mouth.
Chu Yuan looked at him, and he really didn't want to nod.
Duan Baiyue said: "You don't want to wash rice, and you have to rely on me to cook for the rest of your life." β
Chu Yuan took his hand away and said, "Hmm." "I don't wash.
"Just try it out in advance." Duan Baiyue continued.
Chu Yuan said: "What if it's not delicious? β
Duan Baiyue said: "Then I'll continue to practice." β
Chu Yuan nodded: "If you don't practice well, I'll change someone." β
Duan Baiyue: "......"
