Chapter 569: Motivation
The prince opened his mouth to be different from the emperor, if it was just Zhu Gaochi asking Xiao Shu to go to Daming, then he could naturally refuse, but Tang Ming wanted him to go, and Xiao Shu had to go even if he was reluctant. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
He went back early in the morning to pack his things, and his position as dean was temporarily replaced by his deputy. Tang Ming seemed to make up for Xiao Shu and promised him that after three years, as long as he taught his students, he could come back. The position of dean is still his, Xiao Shu thanked Tang Ming, and went to Daming with a simple salute.
Back in the small courtyard of the palace, Tang Ming could hear a burst of mahjong at the door, and he started playing mahjong early in the morning, which was really unreasonable.
Tang Minggang wanted to go in and stir up the situation with a straight face, but he never thought that a mansion would come in a hurry, and said: "Lord, General Fei of Ryukyu Island has sent a messenger to report to you in the front hall. ”
Frowning, although Tang Ming wondered what was important at this time, he didn't stop, turned around and walked towards the front hall.
The person who came was Fei Xin's lieutenant general, and when he saw Tang Ming, he knelt down directly and said: "Lord Qiqi, the unification of the island country was suddenly completed overnight, and Ye Yan, who was in charge of trading there, was injured, and more than 20 ships of goods were all intercepted. ”
"Well, can you find out why?" Tang Ming's face turned cold.
"In the future, the general is investigating this matter, because the incident suddenly ordered me to inform you first."
Although Tang Ming knew that this was not so simple, he didn't take this matter seriously, and he didn't care about a small island country now. It was enough to have Fei Xin there to take care of him, wave his hand to let the person who came back down, and tell him that Fei Xin would make up his own mind, and if necessary, it would not be impossible to directly send a large army to suppress it.
But two days later, Tang Ming learned that Luzon had also begun to recruit troops and horses, and it was also overnight that there were suddenly nearly a thousand more warships. At this time, all of them stopped in the South China Sea Islands, and they were facing the army of Fei Xin's department, and the island nation also sent troops to Ryukyu Island a day later.
But the matter was far from settled, and the army of pirates that had been beaten away a few days ago reappeared, and this time the fleet was more than twice as large as before.
The situation was urgent, Tang Ming didn't dare to make a big deal anymore, and immediately sent five hundred spaceships and five hundred hot air balloons to support Fei Xin. After arranging the defense of Jeju Island, he also went to the front line with the fleet.
On the base of the islands and reefs of the South China Sea Islands, Fei Xin personally took all the lieutenants to welcome Tang Ming's arrival. Although facing the pressure of the army at this moment, Tang Ming couldn't see any nervous expression on their faces.
In the boss's tent, everyone sat down in turn, and Fei Xin took the lead in getting up and said to Tang Ming: "Lord Wang, now it has been found out that all this is a ghost done by the people of the Bright Sect behind the scenes. In particular, the pirates who came from outside the territory were all dressed up as Illuminati. ”
Tang Ming nodded and said, "No wonder there is such a big stroke, it seems that this Bright Sect is indeed not to be underestimated!" ”
Fei Xin showed a wry smile on his face: "Not to be underestimated, they have always had people secretly lurking in the island country and Luzon, and this sudden gathering of troops to attack must have been planned for a long time." ”
Tang Ming didn't stay in the big tent for long, and he and Fei Xin got on the spaceship and rose to the sky, using a telescope to observe the situation of the enemy army.
In the vast sea, hundreds of miles away from the islands in the South China Sea, there are densely packed with ships like small black spots, covering almost the entire sea area.
Due to the distance, even if Tang Ming used a telescope at this time, he still couldn't see the true situation of the enemy army, but he could vaguely see the largest ship. Its hull is almost larger than that of a treasure ship, but it has also taken a lot of strides, and judging from its overall shape, it should have been remodeled from a treasure ship.
There was a big banner on it, it was the banner of the Illuminati Sect, this was the first time Tang Ming had seen the Illuminati Sect appear, and he was a little curious about this mysterious church, and he wanted to know what kind of demon that holy woman was.
"How long has the enemy been there, but what has happened?" Tang Ming casually asked Fei Xin beside him.
"There's been no movement, there's been no movement since it appeared a few days ago, and I don't know what they're doing. If you want to fight, you should attack as soon as you come, so that you can play the role of a sneak attack. But they let such a good opportunity go away, as if they were waiting for our reinforcements to arrive. ”
Fei Xin was the most puzzled by this, he was very suspicious at the moment whether the commander of the enemy army had broken his head this time, or if he was an idiot who didn't know how to fight at all.
The corners of Tang Ming's mouth hooked up a sneer, and he suddenly said: "It seems that we have guests coming, let's go back and see what they have to say." ”
I saw that in the army of the Bright Sect, a battleship slowly came towards Tang Ming. When Tang Ming returned to the big tent, he had already ordered people to be brought in, and there should be no embarrassment.
An hour later, Tang Ming waited for the messenger of the Bright Sect, who came to be the old man who failed to assassinate Tang Ming last time, and the last time he covered his face was in the dark night, his face naturally would not be seen clearly.
But Tang Ming felt that this person was very familiar, after all, he was the only one who was closest to the old man that night, and when he saw him at this moment, he just felt familiar, Tang Ming didn't recognize him.
The old man came alone, but his attitude was very arrogant, and when he saw Tang Ming, who was sitting in a handsome position, he just hugged his fists and politely said: "The old man is the seventh elder of the Bright Sect, don't come unharmed!" ”
When the old man opened his mouth, Tang Ming was stunned for a moment, and the scene of the assassination that night flashed in his mind, and he quickly recognized the old man: "You are the assassin who assassinated this king that night!" ”
"Exactly!" The Seventh Elder did not shy away from suspicion at all, and directly confessed his identity.
"It's not a small amount of courage, aren't you afraid that this king will take you down?" Tang Ming coldly threatened.
The Seventh Elder looked around the big tent and sneered: "Just with the people in your big tent, the old man hasn't taken it seriously, and it is not easy to keep the old man. The prince should have also seen the old man's skills, at least before your people make a move, the dead should be you. ”
"Bold!"
Fei Xin and the others immediately pressed the saber on their waists and shouted angrily!
Tang Ming waved his hand for Li Ba and them to sit down, and then smiled at the old man: "If you are here to show off your might, then this king will definitely not keep you back." Anyone can say big things, life and death have to be in peace! ”
Tang Ming stared at the old man's lower body as he spoke, and he had already said something. The old man seemed to have only remembered the events of that night at this time, and the muscles on his face twitched slightly, and his face changed even more.
After a long time, I heard him snort coldly: "The old man was ordered by the sect master to ask you to meet in the capital of Luzon, I don't know if you have the courage to go!" (To be continued.) )
