"Luosheng, Zixuan, you two boys are finally here for me, we have been waiting for you in Beihai for two days." It was Jiang Huan Chu who spoke, and Jiang Wan'er also stood behind him and looked at the two with a smile.

Liu Zixuan asked curiously: "We came to Qi Country secretly this time, how come you even know our route?" ”

Jiang Huan Chu laughed: "Your so-called secret is only for the other three countries, how can we not know it?" Although you didn't say which route you came from, I can be sure that you must have taken the sea route, so Wan'er and I are waiting for you in Beihai City. ”

Jiang Wan'er also explained with a smile: "Great Qi and the Song Kingdom do not border, and they must pass through other countries by land, and Brother Shi and Brother Liu are so famous now, if you want to hide people's eyes and ears, it is of course the best choice to take the sea route." But if my third brother knows, he will definitely feel uncomfortable, he is known as the first person in naval warfare, he lost to you last time, and you are still from the sea, he will think that you are deliberately here to show off your might. ”

Shi Luosheng said: "Wan'er is really smart, but we can't take the sea route, there is absolutely no intention to show off in front of your third brother, it was purely a fluke to win against your third brother last time, and he de......serves to be the first person in the naval battle."

Jiang Huan Chu impatiently interrupted Shi Luosheng's words: "Okay, my third brother is not here, and if he praises it, he can't hear it, but the last defeat really hit the third brother hard, and after he came back, he resigned from his position as the commander of the navy to his father." During this time, the Nujiao Gang, which had been hiding in Jiaozhou, was closed. Until now, when he heard that you were coming to Beijing, he rushed back on purpose. ”

Liu Zixuan was a little big when he heard this: "What do you mean, does your third brother want to trouble us?" This is in your Qi country, and the two armies are still fighting each other, not to mention that we are here to talk about cooperation. ”

Jiang Wan'er was amused by Liu Zixuan's words: "Brother Liu, don't worry, my third brother is not so careful, if it is replaced by my eldest brother and second brother, it will be uncertain." ”

Shi Luosheng had vaguely heard Jiang Huan Chu say something about their brother before, and now the crown prince of Qi was his eldest brother Jiang Huan Song.

But Jiang Huan Chu and Jiang Wan'er's mother Yun Guifei is Emperor Qi Jiang Wushuang's favorite concubine, because of his love for the house and Wu, Jiang Wushuang usually loves Jiang Huan Chu's brothers and sisters, and even caused the jealousy of other princes for a time.

Jiang Huan Song also targeted Jiang Huan Chu everywhere, and tried to kill him several times, but fortunately, he avoided it every time.

The second prince Jiang Huan Qin is also eyeing the storage position, and every time Jiang Huan Song makes a move to deal with Jiang Huan Chu, he has his push behind him.

After a long time, Jiang Huan Chu, who originally had no intention of competing for the reserve, also understood that no matter whether he fought for the reserve or not, as long as Jiang Wushuang still doted on him, these two brothers would not let him go. Even if Jiang Wushuang dies in the future, no matter which brother succeeds to the throne, he will not have a good life. In order to protect himself, Jiang Huanchu had no choice but to embark on the road of competing for reserves.

Only the third prince Jiang Huanyan has no interest in the storage position, he only likes the sea, and he discusses various naval battles in history with Lu Xinghai in the Jiaozhou Nujiao Gang on weekdays.

Jiaozhou is also the naval base of Qi State, Jiang Huanyan and Lu Xinghai every time they chat, they pull the troops out for a drill, and over time, he has achieved the name of the first person in naval warfare.

Although Jiang Huanchu and Jiang Wan'er do not have a good relationship with the eldest brother and second brother, their relationship with the third brother Jiang Huanyan is not bad. This time, Jiang Huanyan was defeated by Shi Luosheng, and Jiang Huanchu didn't forget to tease him a few words while being surprised.

Shi Luosheng said with a smile: "Fortunately, I didn't offend your eldest brother and second brother, the names of your four brothers are also quite interesting, the four countries of Chu, Song, Qin, and Yan have all been called, it seems that your father is aiming to unify the five countries." ”

When it comes to the unification of the five countries, the Jiang brothers and sisters have a little gloomy looks, Shi Luosheng and Liu Zixuan are from the Song Kingdom, and they are both in high positions. Jiang Wushuang wants to unify the five countries, and he will inevitably meet them on the battlefield in the future.

Originally, the two of them felt that the unification of the five countries was not so fast, and they had been deliberately avoiding this issue, but the last naval battle had already made them realize that the friendship between themselves and Shi Luosheng would only end with the war between the two countries.

Shi Luosheng also understood what the two of them were thinking, and sighed and said: "Who knows what will happen in the future, the Chu State has also fought with us for nearly two hundred years, and now our Great Song Dynasty is not fine?" Maybe we will never see any country in our life that can unify the five countries. ”

Jiang Huan Chu had been living in Qi before, but he didn't feel anything, but when he went to Chu and Yan, he realized how big the gap between these two countries and Qi was, not to mention Qin and Song, which were even more backward than Chu and Yan.

On the surface, it seems that Qi has not made any bargains for foreign troops every year, but Jiang Huan Chu is clear that Qi has used foreign troops over the years, and the intention is only to consume all countries, and he has not used all his strength. With the success of a series of reform measures within Qi in the past decade, the gap between Qi and the other four countries has also widened.

There will be another ten years at most, and in the future, whether it is economic or military, the other four countries will not be stronger than Qi even if they are added together. At that time, sending troops to conquer the four countries will be as neat as destroying the withering and decaying.

Jiang Huan Chu smiled bitterly: "Okay, don't talk about such a sad topic, the two of you haven't been to our Daqi before, Wan'er and I will take you around in the past few days." ”

Shi Luosheng also joked: "Zixuan and I are both from poor places, this is the first time I have seen such a prosperous city, Beihai is like this, so what does it have to be like in the capital?" And I just saw a lot of things at the dock that I hadn't seen before, and those were all shipped from overseas? Tell me more about this, because we can only rely on maritime trade to develop Changxing Island. ”

Jiang Huan Chu said with a smile: "Regarding the affairs of the sea, I only know some fur, if you are really interested, you have to ask my third brother." My third brother is a fan of sailing, and he has been to Ryukyu, Luzon, and Siam overseas, but it's a pity that you have offended him, but I don't know if he is willing to tell you. ”

Shi Luosheng scratched his head and said, "Huan Chu, you have to give me an idea, let me have a good chat with your third brother, I need to know about overseas things too much." ”

Jiang Wan'er said angrily: "Okay, fourth brother, don't tease Brother Shi, third brother is not that kind of stingy person, he deliberately went back to Beijing this time to see Brother Shi, and you can have a good chat then." The third brother is very easy to get along with, as soon as you talk to him about the sea, he forgets everything. ”

Jiang Huan Chu pretended to be unhappy and said: "Okay, you Wan'er, you are uniting outsiders to deal with your third brother, if this third brother knows, he will die of sadness." ”

Jiang Wan'er blushed, and said a little shyly: "Fourth brother......." ”

Jiang Huan Chu understood as soon as he saw Jiang Wan'er's expression, it seemed that his sister was interested in Shi Luosheng. It's just a pity that Luosheng is from the Song Kingdom, if only he was willing to come to the Qi Kingdom.
