Chapter 228 Do you want to fight?
In the captain's room of the Jieyu, a world map hangs on the wall behind the seat, and an incense burner on the table is lit with quiet sandalwood.
Li Zhe was here, waiting for the arrival of the minister. He was really convinced, the Manraka Strait was so wide, and this guy named Zhang Qin actually bumped into himself so well.
What a lucky guy.
Even if it's just for this good fortune in this person, Li Zhe is afraid that he will have to meet him. You must know that there are so many people in this fleet under his command, and there are many people, it is impossible for him to secretly kill the Lord Qincha of the imperial court! Although he had to admit that for a moment, he did think so.
Zhang Qin, trying his best to maintain his swaggering demeanor, climbed onto the Jieyu, although he had already received information about the steam warship of the Tianzhu Sailor before he met Li Zhe's fleet, but at this moment, when he saw the Jieyu, a steel battleship built with the wisdom of the master craftsmen of Tianzhu almost all the time, he still couldn't help but tremble.
Is Tianzhu so rich and powerful?
Such a terrible behemoth had already been produced on the sea with steel.
At that moment, Zhang Qin didn't know what he was thinking in his heart, but a trembling dare that seemed to come from the deepest bottom of his soul still grabbed him fiercely.
It was hundreds of millions of years ago in human history, when savage hunters encountered the fearsome saber-toothed tiger in the forest, and it was the feeling of prey at the bottom of the food chain when it met a predator at the top of the food chain.
Almost immediately, Zhang Qin knew that the terrifying power that this huge steel monster could exert when fighting at sea was completely different from the feeling of the sailors of the Ning Wang Domain when they first saw the ordinary steam warship of the Tianzhu Navy.
Before the original Battle of Tanjung, if Cheng Kesheng of the Dinghai Fleet had seen such a battleship with his own eyes, I am afraid that he would never dare to start a war with Xu Qingyuan's fleet, so that he would have lost most of his Dinghai Fleet.
How could the Tianzhu people have so much refined steel?
And how did they keep such a heavy steel battleship from sinking at sea?
As for more questions like how to push such a behemoth forward at sea, there were many, many questions that came to Zhang Qin's mind in an instant.
In the end, Zhang Qin finally realized that with such a powerful Tianzhu, I am afraid that he would no longer be willing to live in the vassal system of the Great Song Dynasty.
Such a country will never submit to any other country.
This country already belongs to its own will, and even the Great Song Dynasty can only be equal in front of such a country.
His status as a minister was dispensable to the owner of this behemoth.
Everything he had wanted to express in front of this person had lost its meaning.
Zhang Qin walked all the way, looking hungrily at everything he saw along the way, as if he wanted to see the secrets of this monster from it.
Then, the footsteps finally stopped in front of a person, Zhang Qin raised his head and looked seriously at the person sitting across the table opposite - Li Zhe, a name that had been bothering him for a while.
Zhang Qin took a step forward and saluted,
"I've seen the Governor!"
Then step back and immediately hold your head high again:
"Li Zhe, are you guilty?"
The sound shook people's eardrums like spring thunder.
What the?
The officer in the cabin immediately raised his eyebrows and eyes,
Now, in the eyes of his subordinates, Li Zhe is almost a god, how are these people willing to let this guy reprimand the commander in their minds.
Seeing that everyone was about to step forward and catch this bold and reckless chincha.
Li Zhe smiled slightly, stretched out a hand and said:
"Huh? Retire! ”
"Let him continue!"
Zhang Qin, who seemed to be angry below, also secretly wiped a handful of sweat in his heart, okay, fortunately, he won the bet, this Li Zhe is really not as rude and reckless as rumored.
How could such a person be just the one who only relied on the queen's favorite jesters from the outside?
It is rumored that it is very harmful, and the ministers of the Great Song Dynasty have really miscalculated this time!
Zhang Qin straightened his mind and spoke again,
"Dudu, do you know that you have committed a great crime this time, and the entire Tianzhu Kingdom will not be far away."
Oh?
Li Zhe seemed a little interested and asked:
"Why did the angel say that?"
Hum! And say that there is no trouble? Just because you know that I am an angel, and still sit and talk to me like this, as if you are treating your subordinates, you have already violated the rules of the Great Song Dynasty.
But at this time, here, of course, Zhang Qin can't take this seriously.
Angels, angels! Perhaps those local princes who were closer to the Great Song Dynasty would be afraid of the heavenly might of the heavenly kingdom carried by the angels, but a remote vassal country like Tianzhu would probably not regard the prestige of the ministers of the Qin Missions as a thing for a long time.
Anyway, it is impossible for the Great Song to beat them.
The Great Song Dynasty and the Heavenly Dynasty had long lost its prestige in front of the vassal kings in these places.
He replied:
"Isn't it a great crime for the Governor to bewitch the queen of your country to invade the Ning Wang Domain, and the brothers killed each other, violating the edict of my Great Song Heavenly Dynasty that vassal states are not allowed to invade without authorization?"
Listening to him talk like this, Li Zhe smiled,
"Yes! But so what? ”
What the? What do you think?
Zhang Qin thought in advance that Li Zhe would desperately prevaricate, desperately find a reason for his invasion of the Ning Wang Domain, and would use various means to deny his own guilt. Originally, it is indeed a little excusable, after all, the attack on the Nanyang Tianzhu envoy group cannot be denied, Zhang Qin even thought about how to face it if Li Zhe proposed this matter, how to persuade the other party skillfully, and then finally expressed forgiveness to the other party with high spirits, and then solved the dispute with a smooth push, anyway, the left and right are just interests, he is ready to try to persuade King Ning to make concessions appropriately.
The entire mission is based on such a strategy.
But I didn't think that it would be such a light and clever sentence, so what?
It's as if everything is so casual and as it should be.
Zhang Qin could hardly understand Li Zhe's logic, who was His Majesty the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, didn't he have a little fear of the Great Song Dynasty?
As an envoy of the Great Song Dynasty and a minister of the Qin Mission, at this moment Zhang Qin felt the contempt in Li Zhe's attitude that he couldn't understand at all, the contempt for him and the Great Song Dynasty for the princess of the whole world.
At this moment, he was so angry with this feeling that he almost felt that fire could erupt from his eyes.
Outrageous!
Be bold!
He puffed up his chest and said angrily:
"Then if the governor has always adhered to such an attitude, then Tianzhu will wait for the wrath of His Majesty the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, who is rich and supreme from all over the world!"
Then Zhang Qin saw that Li Zhe seemed to have a funny expression on his face,
"Okay, then come on! I've been waiting here for a long time! ”
