Yinggao also learned that the crew Xu Fu brought with him on his second voyage was basically the same as the first time he went with him, and these people did not return without exception, which made Yinggao's understanding of them even more deadlocked.

In the end, Yinggao had no choice but to let the confused Meng Yi and Feng Qujian leave his main hall first, while he himself stared at the map on the wall in the main hall, and his eyes couldn't take his eyes off the top of the map for a long time, but even so, it was too difficult for Yinggao to find a little clue about Xu Fu from a mere map.

"Alas, if Xu Fu really sailed the warship to the Peacock Empire, or was killed by the people of the Peacock Empire in the process of driving, it wouldn't be good!"

Obviously, Yinggao was worried about the uncertainty of Xu Fu's voyage on the sea, and he was not afraid of ten thousand, especially when Xu Fu set off for the second time, he brought a lot of Great Qin Treasures. This is very indicative of something unusual.

And Yinggao generated and aggravated such worries, which was still based on his own grounds, not out of thin air.

At this time, there were still some uncivilized people in the land of Dongying, and they naturally didn't want those treasures of Great Qin, and those who could identify and make these treasures realize their true value were definitely not the so-called immortals on the immortal mountain, but people who had the same insight as the people of Great Qin.

Such a person, except for the Peacock Dynasty, Yinggao really can't think of other possibilities.

After some careful consideration, Ying Gao sighed slightly, he knew that his policy of recuperation might not be able to last for two or three years.

Although only a year has passed now, he can't wait like this, he is going to start his own plan, and start adding bricks to the blueprint in his heart, instead of waiting for the day when a divine soldier descends from heaven on the land of Great Qin, and all the blows he has worked so hard to build will be shattered.

But of course, he will not spread some news that can cause panic in front of his courtiers and people, but can only slowly develop it in his own heart.

Just do it, on the second day of Yinggao's idea, Xiao He, Han Xin and the Zhu family appeared in front of him, this time Yinggao did not inquire, but directly said one of his decisions, that is, three days later, he went to Jiujiang County for a tour, the purpose was nothing else, it was to see how the warship built by Wang Li and Chen Ying was.

"Your Excellency is going to Jiujiang County for a patrol? The matter ...... You still need to be cautious, Jiujiang is not as far away as Luoyang and Guannei, once something happens in it......"

As soon as he heard that Yinggao was suddenly so far away, just to take a look at the newly built warship, Xiao He's heart was a little surprised, this year, they have been busy for almost half of the year, these days, the various counties of Daqin have just stepped into some right tracks, and Yinggao and he have just been able to take a breath.

If Yinggao goes to Jiujiang County to inspect the warship at this time, it will suddenly become a big news in the territory of Daqin, although Zhang Liang, the mastermind behind the previous assassinations, has been punished, but after all, Xiang Yu is still on the Xiongnu territory Shan Yudang is stable, Yinggao is walking on the territory of Daqin, it cannot be said that it is foolproof.

There is another point, that is, according to Xiao He's experience, once Yinggao leaves Xianyang City, almost all the major and minor affairs in the court will have to be handed over to him, how difficult it is for the acting emperor to deal with the role of the court, Xiao He has already understood it before, and if he wants him to talk about it again, he is really a little resistant in his heart.

"I am the emperor of Great Qin, why should I walk on the land of my Great Qin? Originally, I didn't want to inspect the new warship, Wang Li and Chen Ying, the two county guards, would definitely not be deceived by me, but for the development of my Great Qin Naval Army, I can't stand idly by, Xianyang City has no water, and most of the people in the pass are not accustomed to water, so if I want to develop a naval army, I must be in the south, and Nanhai County does not have the conditions now, only Jiujiang and Huiji, these counties, can take on this great task! ”

Yinggao explained, Xiao He understood what Yinggao meant at that time, the previous Daqin, in the navy was basically blank, and now, there are warships, but the serious navy has not yet eyebrows, before the Warring States period, the war between the various vassal states, did not rely on the navy, due to the geographical restrictions of various countries, most of them are mainly infantry, supplemented by cavalry, so the navy in this era, is basically equivalent to nothing.

Yinggao is going over there and creating a whole new class.

As the left minister of Great Qin, the largest official in charge of internal affairs, Xiao He knew that Yinggao had almost put seventy or eighty percent of his energy on the development of internal affairs in the past few years of his accession to the throne, and for the military, although he had experienced the war of exterminating the anti-Qin, and experienced the war of the Xiongnu invasion of the Great Wall by Maodun alone, but Yinggao had not been recruited on a large scale until now, on the contrary, there were not a few existing sergeants who obtained military merit titles by killing the heads of the enemy in these battles.

Seeing that Daqin has repeatedly been able to achieve good results in battles with other forces, many people of Daqin hope to be able to obtain military merits by letting their children join the army, so as to make their family a real noble, their requirements are actually not high, as long as they can have a title that is not more, it is already quite a good situation.

No one knows why Yinggao didn't recruit soldiers, but Xiao He knew just by looking at the situation in the pass that once Yinggao was recruited, the people of Daqin would definitely gather and respond.

And this time, Yinggao wanted to go to Jiujiang County, saying that he was inspecting the warships built by Wang Li and Chen Yingdu, but in fact, he wanted to show all strata of Daqin that Daqin's internal affairs were almost developed and wanted to start developing military strength.

Xiao He can't forget the words that Yinggao often puts on his lips: "If you go outside, you must first settle inside!" So this time, he knew that his dissuasion would definitely not have much effect.

"Then I don't know how many officials and how many sergeants you led this time?"

If it is really according to the battle of the first emperor before the patrol, it is undoubtedly quite huge, and there are tens of thousands of soldiers alone, and there are countless officials who follow.

"The people I carried this time, Han Xin, Peng Yue, Sima Xin, the three generals, plus the Zhu family, can lead the number of 1,000 guards, and the government in this Xianyang Palace still has to be done by Zuo Xiang!"

As soon as Han Xin and the Zhu family heard what Yinggao wanted to do, they knew that Yinggao would definitely take him there, but sure enough, Yinggao directly named the two of them, while Peng Yue and Sima Xin were both generals who were very user-friendly to Han Xin, plus the Zhu family who protected Yinggao's safety and the Great Qin Janissaries under his command, obviously this lineup was also for the development of their naval army.

But as soon as Yinggao said this, everyone had a lot of doubts, that is, only carrying a thousand guards, I'm afraid it's a bit too much.

"Your Majesty, in addition to these 1,000 guards, you should bring another 10,000 sergeants in the camp outside Xianyang City, so that you can ensure that your lord is foolproof."

"The sergeants outside Xianyang City, don't move lightly, can't I be worth 10,000 ordinary sergeants?"

As soon as Ying Gao said this, the people below didn't dare to speak anymore, the guards of Xianyang Palace were indeed the strongest combat strength in the entire Great Qin, in order to ensure the safety of Xianyang Palace, once the Zhu family found that there were strong soldiers, they would be desperate to transfer to the team of the guards.

The Great Qin Guards under the rule of the Zhu family, after two years of development and progress, if it comes to individual combat ability, it is not much worse than the secret law team around the first emperor before.

It is precisely because of this that when Yinggao said this, the Zhu family was very calm, he was the only one among these people who thought that a thousand guards were enough to ensure Yinggao's safety.

As early as when Yinggao did not ascend the throne, he led people to encounter several ambushes, and under his own protection, it was also intact, not to mention in today's Great Qin.

In this way, the matter of going out on patrol was decided on a small scale, and the people who went with Yinggao went home to prepare for it, and Yinggao also began to prepare for this long trip.

This trip to Jiujiang is both unexpected and reasonable for Yinggao.

After the construction of the warship is completed, Yinggao must take a look at it in person to rest assured, because the warship is too important for them, and if Yinggao wants to let Daqin's battle flag be planted all over the planet, an invincible warship team is indispensable.

And what is unexpected is that Yinggao originally wanted to rest for a while, after all, the current internal affairs of Daqin are like a well-run engine, after Yinggao's fierce operation has already gone through the labor pain run-in period, for the time being, he doesn't need to rack his brains to use any policies and laws to stimulate, in this case, Yinggao, who has Feng Qing and Tian Yan, the two ladies with their own merits, of course has to enjoy the blessings of all people.

But now, Xu Fu's news makes Yinggao can only temporarily push back the days of enjoying happiness, once Xu Fu drove Daqin's warship a few years ago with Daqin's treasures and boys and girls to bow down to another dynasty, then in the eyes of the rulers of that dynasty, Daqin's image is not so tough, and it is not normal for people not to bully and bully you.

For the sake of Great Qin's future, and for the threat that Great Qin may suffer from from afar, Yinggao is still determined to be diligent, as for what exactly is driving Yinggao, he would rather attribute it to something called national pride.

"Youshang is going to Jiujiang County?"

That night, Yinggao summoned Feng Qing and Tian Yan to enjoy the meal together, and Ai Ai told the two of them the news later.

Sure enough, Feng Qing and Tian Yan were very surprised by the news that Yinggao was going to Jiujiang County, and Tian Yan's eyes widened at that time, looking incredulous. Feng Qing was quite indifferent, but it was difficult to hide the surprise between his eyebrows.

After more than a year of life in Xianyang Palace, Tian Yan finally let Yinggao see her true temperament. She is actually a very lively girl, but it is because her dead senior brother has instilled too much hatred that she has become silent, and after more than a year of infection by Yinggao and Feng Qing, she has completely recovered what she should be, and Feng Qing is full of praise for this sister.

Ying Gao looked at the expressions of the two of them, and there were also words of suffering in his heart, and he said in his heart I still want to use this time to discuss with the two of you, when will we all have a big sleep together, otherwise I will have to run at both ends, and I will not be thinking about either of them in the cold, this is ...... I don't know when this will happen.

"Yes, Wang Li and Chen Ying have successfully built the warship in Jiujiang County, and I have no foundation before the Great Qin Navy, so I need to get Jiujiang to see what this warship looks like, once I am not satisfied, it is not too late to rectify it. If you don't go, once the ships are built more and you find out the problem, it's already too late. ”

"Now there is no threat around Daqin except for a Xiongnu, I heard that there are some islands east of Nanhai County or Langya, but those islands are tantamount to a drop in the bucket for Daqin, and the king spent money to build those warships, I am afraid that the gains will outweigh the losses in the end."

After Tian Yan listened to Yinggao's words, she almost didn't think about it, and said her own opinion, which made Yinggao's eyes light up.

If these words came out of the mouth of a person who studied Great Qin in the court of Great Qin every day, Ying Gao would not be very surprised, but from Tian Yan's mouth, Ying Gao was very impressed.

Although Daqin's government and government Yinggao will occasionally mention it in front of them when they return to Xianyang Palace, it is not an important matter, and now Tian Yan can analyze this, except for her own study of these in Xianyang Palace every day, there is no other reason.

"I naturally know what you say, and I can't tell you the specific reasons for this yet, but in a few years, you will naturally know."

"If you really want me to know the reason for this, why use a few years later, if you take my sister and me to Jiujiang County this time, the reason for this is naturally known at a glance."

Tian Yan can say such words, it is indeed something that Yinggao never expected, according to the traditions of the previous Great Qin and the various vassal states during the Warring States Period, the lady in the palace, even when leaving the palace, has to abide by many things.

But after being taken aback, Yinggao's head suddenly flashed with inspiration, and his heart said Don't say it, does this really remind me, if I really take the two of them with me this trip, wouldn't it be easier to realize what I was thinking about before?
