438. Set sail for Izumo

I can cure Li Zaixing's illness, but objectively speaking, he is very similar to Qi Dudu's state - the disease can be cured, but I have no way to consume his vitality.

So according to my guess, his lifespan is three years at most and two years at least, and it is difficult to survive this time limit......

I told Hua Mei the real situation, she was actually mentally prepared, but she still couldn't accept it - her mother died suddenly two years ago, and now her father has been declared dead, and it is difficult for anyone to swallow this bitter fruit.

But birth, old age, sickness and death, human nature, this is also a fact that she can't change, and under my repeated comfort, Hua Mei finally regained her calm.

Shen Shixing and Shi Xing's side quickly completed the order for the mobilization of troops, as well as the corresponding supply of money, food, and materials. However, the mobilization of troops still needs a process, and all kinds of materials need to be prepared, so during this period, I actually have a gap period at my disposal.

Of course, I don't want to waste my time on the worthless entertainment of the Jingshi, and I have no interest in visiting the mansion that the little emperor has newly arranged for me, and my immediate priority is to go to Dongyingβ€”for the sake of kites. So Hua Mei said that she would go with me when she said anything, and I agreed.

Under the pretext of familiarizing myself with the sea transport routes, I easily found and completed the formalities of going to sea, and all ships had the urgent wartime authority to anchor in any port in the country and to requisition money and foodβ€”this was the maximum authority that the little emperor could give me, and as for the soldiers, he could not let go.

After all, he's such a big pattern.

I was prepared to go to Dongying - from Shu, I learned the whereabouts of the kite! This guy and Arashi ran to Izumo, where it was said that there was a wandering doctor who was best at treating external injuries, so they went straight to Izumo with the attitude of giving it a try.

Hearing the news, I couldn't sit still any longer, arranged the preparations for the dispatch, and headed straight for Izumo in modern Torne Prefecture with the most elite small fleet.

Legend has it that this is the most aura place in the whole of Toei, so there is the largest and most popular shrine in all of Toei in Izumo. But I'm not interested here, I just want to see the kites, the sooner the better!

The ship has set sail, and this time it is more urgent in my heart than ever! I wish I had arrived at my destination in a few moments, not on a ship, but on a rocket. And the kite guy just ran out like that, and said to me with a smile: "Sir, why are you here?" ”

Thinking about it, I couldn't help but laugh, and I didn't even notice it. Hua Mei stared at me from the side, and suddenly sighed.

I suddenly woke up, and when I looked at Hua Mei, I couldn't help but feel a little panicked. But then I remembered that Hua Mei and her father had already admitted the existence of kites, so why should I embarrass myself?

So I asked, "What's wrong?" Huamei. ”

This guy pouted and said sourly: "I don't know if some people will laugh involuntarily like this when they think of me!" ”

I couldn't help but laugh dumbly, what kind of vinegar is this? So I stretched out my hand and rubbed Hua Mei's head vigorously, kneading her head into a chicken nest: "What is this like, it doesn't matter at all." ”

"Important!" Hua Mei jumped like a little fox and shouted, "Important! Significant! Significant! ”

Saying that, she straightened her hair angrily: "You messed up my hair!" It's annoying! ”

Looking at her coquettish appearance, I silently smiled again, gently stroked her hair a few times with my hand, smoothed out the messy hair, and then slightly forced, hugged her head into my arms.

"The kite must be fine, Qilan, she's so smart! Besides, there's Arashi guarding on the side! Hua Mei's voice was not loud, but it was very firm.

"yes, I know." I replied softly: "What I was thinking about was how to break through the hundreds of thousands of enemy troops in front of me, which was like a big stone pressing on my heart. ”

Hua Mei raised her head and said strangely: "Why, don't you have confidence?" I've always felt like you're full of confidence! ”

I shook my head and smiled bitterly: "I'm not worried about defeating the Japanese Kou, what I'm worried about is time - after all, you are not allowed to get married in front of the station, in case you fight for ten or eight years, my uncle will ...... him."

Hua Mei was silent, this was actually what she was most worried about. Her greatest wish is for her father to be able to see his children and grandchildren full of children and grandchildren in his lifetime. That wish seemed difficult to fulfill now, and with my miraculous medical probes, her father would never live too long.

Thinking of this, she also sighed and asked, "Then what do you say?" Qilan, is there any other way? ”

I stared at the waves in the distance and thought. Countless methods flashed through his mind for a while, and finally, a thought suddenly flashed through him, and he turned his head and smiled at Hua Mei: "I remember you said that you have been studying those things of the Heavenly *Patriarchal* Sect?" ”

Hua Mei looked at me strangely: "Yes, I've always been interested in these. I always felt that there was a higher level above our level, so I ......"

"That's it! Stop! I smiled and twisted her cheek, and when she was screaming in pain, I smiled and said to her, "Then let's have a Catholic wedding in a small area!" This is not bound by secular rituals, and can be done at any time if we want to, right? ”

Hua Mei's eyes suddenly lit up, and then slowly dimmed, and she muttered: "The way is a good way, but my father said that he didn't want to go to sea, and there was no priest in the Ming Dynasty......"

I tapped her head again and laughed, "I'm usually full of ideas, why are you stupid now?" ”

Hua Mei, who knocked again this time, jumped up and shouted, "You beat me stupid!" You say, am I not right? ”

I shook my head and said, "Yes, there is no priest in the Ming Dynasty, can't we bring one back?" There are so many pastors in Dongying, just catch one, won't this problem be solved? ”

Hua Mei's eyes emitted a colorful light: "Good! Good! That's it! Sure enough, you're smart! Qilan! ”

Saying that, she jumped over and kissed me the face, but the nine ghosts happened to come over to report the matter, and when she saw this fragrant scene, she was ashamed to cover her eyes again and again!

I felt slightly embarrassed, but Hua Mei didn't care, she ran away with a smile. Approaching the cabin, he turned around and shouted, "Don't forget this, I'll leave it to you!" ”

I said "oh" to her from a distance, and Hua Mei jumped into the cabin like a happy little rabbit.

Shaking my head, I turned to look at the nine ghosts who seemed to be smiling over there, this guy had been with me for a long time, and he was not as rigid as before, and smiled at me: "Sir, after finding the kite, you should hurry up and marry them!" Life is too short, who can stay long! ”

I waved my hand at him and shouted, "Isn't this a discussion?" Anyway, what are you looking for me? It's still a while before Izumo, right? ”

The Nine Ghosts Nodding, pointing to the distance and saying, "The front is the territorial waters of Goryeo, and since the Yuchai family is imposing a ban on Goryeo, it is really unwise for us to force our way in, so I suggest that our fleet sail eastward, reach the coastal waters of Dongying and then turn north, so I have come to ask you to decide." ”

I thought about it, the Nine Ghost Jialong's naval army was not very strong, but it was really unwise if there was unnecessary friction before the war began. The suggestion of the Nine Ghosts is very pertinent and practical. So I immediately ordered the fleet to turn due east and sail according to the suggested route of the Nine Ghosts Masataka!

So, in order to avoid the fleet of the Nine Ghosts Jialong, we changed course and sailed according to the safest route we had expected.

Unexpectedly, what should be met will eventually meet, this is the so-called corner to meet love!

In the vicinity of Kitakyushu, a fleet suddenly appeared in front of our fleet, and it didn't seem to be coming towards us, but in this era of war, the other fleets encountered on the sea actually belonged to the category of places that could be attacked in a certain sense, and as for why, it doesn't need to be explained!

I watched from afar through the binoculars, and this fleet was dominated by Ataka and Kohaya, and it looked like a transport fleet. Although their number is more than four or five times that of ours, in terms of combat effectiveness, I am confident that they will be completely annihilated without any damage!

At this moment, the nine ghosts masataka shouted at me, "Sir, it's the fleet of the Shimazu family, do you want to meet with them?" ”

The Shimazu family, my mind returned to a series of grievances and entanglements with the Tanegashima family and the Shimazu family, and I couldn't help but smile on my lips: "Get ready for battle, show your true identity, and see how they react!" ”

The Nine Ghosts Masataka immediately did so, and when the flag was played, the fleet of the Shimazu family immediately boiled! They quickly replied to the flag, saying that it was the head of the Shimazu Yoshihisa family on the boat, and I was on my waist! As a sign of sincerity, Shimazu Yoshihisa only came by small boat, hoping to meet me on board!

Yoshihisa Shimazu? The wise man of Kyushu, in my strategy and tactics this time, he is the key chess piece that changes the chess game! I wanted to make a special trip to lobby him, but I didn't expect that it would be better to hit the day than to choose a day, and we actually met unexpectedly on this vast sea!

So, I replied with the word "Nine Ghosts Zhengxiao": "Please!" ”

After a while, I saw a small morning boat break away from the Shimazu family's fleet and head in my direction.

Approach, drop anchor, set up, board the ship. It was none other than Yoshihisa Shimazu, who had already been served by the daimyo on the ship, with a mature and steady face and a glint of wisdom in his eyes! Followed by his third brother, Shimazu Iehisa, who has a good relationship with me!

"Hahahaha!" The two Shimazu brothers laughed and walked up to me, and at the same time stretched out their hands and showed me friendship: "Sure enough, it's you!" Mr. Sun! I haven't seen you for years, but you're still so strong! ”

It was Shimazu Yoshihisa who spoke, and I walked over quickly to shake hands with the two brothers, and laughed aloud in the same voice: "Isn't it my dead-faced boy, isn't this coming back again?" ”

Shimazu Yoshihisa tugged on my arm hard, and I clearly saw deep crow's feet from the corner of his eye, it seemed that it was not easy for him to run the family all these years, so I heard him lower his voice and said, "What is Mr. Sun coming back for?" Could it be...... Over there in Goryeo? ”

I said quietly, "From the perspective of the first wise man in Kyushu, what will be the outcome of this war?" ”

Shimazu Yoshihisa and his younger brother glanced at each other, suddenly looked at me and smiled: "Mr. Sun, this matter still needs to be discussed in detail." ”

I immediately let go of my hand and made a "please" gesture to the two brothers towards the cabin. The two of them did not shirk it, and followed me back and forth into the cabin.

Walking ahead, I suddenly had a strange feeling in my heart - this war, maybe everything that is about to happen, is a key turning point!
