Zhen Qian guessed that the reason why the four major scholars in the southeast had not made a move for a long time was because the Wufeng Islands were too weird, so they would suddenly go to the north main island to test it.

On the wharf of the north main island, in the fleet of the four major scholars in the southeast, four brightly dressed men sat around drinking tea and laughing.

Zhu Yan, who was dressed in an ivory white robe, frowned and said: "I didn't expect this trip to the Japanese country to be so unsmooth, the Japanese civil strife, and now the Silla country has sent troops to Tsushima Island, so we can't go to Silla to do business, what should you do next?" ”

After leaving Nagasaki Town, the fleet of the four major scholars in the southeast sailed to the vicinity of Iki Island and saw the fleet of the Japanese Kingdom, but fortunately, the Japanese generals saw that it was a merchant ship of the Tang Dynasty, and did not make trouble, so they let it return to the Tang Dynasty or dock at the port of Karatsu.

At this time, it was obviously impossible to go to Silla, but the goods on the ship had not yet been sold, and it was not a loss to sell pants when returning to Datang. The four major scholars in the southeast discussed returning to the Wufeng Islands first to see the situation.

Lu Ming has always been the backbone of the four, Gu Liang is resourceful, Lu Ming is decisive, Zhang Heng is impetuous, Zhu Yan is sophisticated, and the four have distinct personalities.

"What do you think is the strength of the Five Peaks Islands?" Gu Liang suddenly spoke.

Gu Liang's words were also in the minds of the other three, and they were also the biggest question in the hearts of the four of them.

The Wufeng Islands are only as big as they are, but they are equivalent to the area of a county in Datang, and their strength is limited no matter how big they are. Although this is the case on the surface, the four of them have always been cautious, especially since the Wufeng Islands are next to the Wa Kingdom, if they don't have a little strength, I'm afraid no one will believe it.

However, the strength is strong and weak, if the knowledge has the strength of a county, then it is okay to rob it, and this trip to the country will make a lot of money.

In case the strength of the Wufeng Islands is strong, stealing chickens will not lead to a handful of rice, and the entire fleet will be put into it, this crime is not something that the four of them can bear.

"Now that Silla and Wa are at war, the Wufeng Islands will inevitably be full of rumors, and they will take more precautions against us, but they should not dare to offend us at this time. After we go to the island, let our subordinates create some incidents, test the reality of the Wufeng Islands, if their strength surpasses ours, we might as well make friends with the Wufeng Islands, if their strength is not good, don't blame us for taking advantage of the fire to rob! ”

Lu Ming said slowly: "The richness of the Wufeng Islands is rare for us, not to mention the abundance of goods, the price is cheap, and there are many strange and ingenious things, and it will definitely make a lot of money when it is transported back to Datang." However, it is a pity that the goods in our hands cannot be sold in the Wa Kingdom, and even the Silla Kingdom cannot be used for the time being, so the plan to buy goods in the Gobong Islands has come to naught. ”

This trip to the Wa Kingdom caught the four major scholars in the southeast off guard, and they came to the Wa Kingdom with confidence, but as a result, the Wa country was in turmoil, and they were ready to go to the Silla Kingdom, but they found that the Silla Kingdom and the Wa Kingdom were pinched, and the business could not be done.

From the Tang Dynasty to the Wa Kingdom, it takes more than three months just to go back and forth, and thousands of people need to eat, drink and lazar It takes a huge amount of money, even the family of a century-old scholar family does not dare to spend so much.

But when they returned to Datang like this, Lu Ming and the four of them were unwilling, especially when they saw the dazzling array of goods on the Wufeng Islands, their eyes were straight, and they couldn't wait to rob it, this is a real treasure mountain!

However, they also know that the Wufeng Islands can exist here in the Wa Kingdom, and they are naturally not vegetarians, and if they take a bite recklessly, they will not break their teeth.

Gu Liang came up with a plan to test the Wufeng Islands.

Didn't the Five Peaks Islands not allow the fleet to dock at the North Main Island? He prefers to dock on the main island in the north to create a deterrent effect on the Wufeng Islands. If the Wufeng Islands swallow their anger, it means that the strength of the Wufeng Islands is not strong, and they can take the opportunity to blackmail the Wufeng Islands and let the Wufeng Islands take out a large amount of money and goods to send the fleet away.

As for starting a war with the Wufeng Islands, unless it was absolutely necessary, Lu Ming and the four of them were not willing to make such a decision.

"Hey! I just don't know if the Wufeng Islands will be soft ....... ”

Before Zhang Heng's words were finished, he heard a commotion outside the cabin, as if something big had happened, "What kind of system is it to shout and shout, go out and see what's going on?" ”

The other three glanced at each other, feeling that something was faintly wrong, and said in unison: "Let's go and have a look?" ”

The four of them walked out of the cabin, stood beside the side of the ship, stretched out their heads to look out, and suddenly their pupils shrank suddenly, and their hearts were beating "bang", and they were about to jump out of their throats, completely losing their composure just now.

"Oh my God! This is....... ”

Even Gu Liang, who usually looked indifferent, seemed to be choked by the neck at this moment, and his eyes bulged outward, as if he had seen a ghost, with an unbelievable face.

Even Zhang Heng, the most arrogant of the four, trembled uncontrollably throughout his body at this moment, grabbing the side of the boat with both hands, as if a giant hand was constantly stirring in his mind, and he was instantly stunned.

"This is the Iron Army!"

"Impossible! …… Absolutely impossible, how can there be an ironclad army! ”

Everything in front of him completely subverted the thinking of the four people, and it was a hundred, a thousand, ten thousand times more shocking than seeing the immortals descend to earth, even if they really saw the immortals, there was nothing more shocking to the four than the scene in front of them.

"It can't be fake!" Zhu Yan swallowed hard and spat out.

Gu Liang had a bitter look on his face, others may not know what the ironclad army means, but the Gu family has a young Tianjiao, who served as a staff member of the governor of Yangzhou Metropolitan Governor's Office, which is exactly what Zhen Qian saw in Yangzhou.

One of the most famous armies of the Tang Dynasty was the Xuanjia Army, all of which consisted of cavalry, and all men and horses were heavily armored in black. Soon after the Xuanwumen Incident, the two khans of Jieli and Tuli raised 200,000 troops to invade the territory. In order to achieve peace by fighting, the 3,000 Xuanjia Army took the initiative to attack under the command of Wei Chigong, and at the cost of more than half of the casualties, completely annihilated a 10,000-strong Turkic elite iron cavalry. The horror of its combat effectiveness can be seen!

The royal family of the Wa Kingdom also has an ironclad army in its hands, with only one or two thousand people, but its combat effectiveness is the strongest in the Wa Kingdom, which is enough to deter the princes and famous lords of the Wa Kingdom.

Lu Ming and the four of them also appeared in front of an ironclad army of hundreds of people, although they were all infantry, but everyone was wearing a set of black iron armor, and the long Mo knife in his hand flashed with cold light, standing on the dock like a wild beast, which made people feel a chill in their hearts.

Is this the strength of the Five Peaks Islands?

Lu Ming and the four of them are not idiots, since someone occupies the Wufeng Islands, how can they not have a little strength in their hands? That's why he didn't act rashly, and now that he sees the Iron Armor Army, he can't help but be glad that he didn't have the intention of robbing the Wufeng Islands at the beginning, otherwise he really can't be good.

Thinking of this, Lu Ming hurriedly glanced at the other three, and the four of them secretly breathed a sigh of relief, only to feel a colder chill than the cold winter blowing through their backs, and there was a kind of panic that they had taken a trip from the ghost gate.
