When Yue Tuo stepped on the wooden plank road outside Ningyuan City, it was dark from the sky.

He came by boat, and this boat was just built by Sun Zhenwu, who he single-handedly pulled, and it has only been in the water for less than a month.

The ship is not big, slightly smaller than the Cangshan Iron of the Great Ming Naval Division; With a single hard sail, a rocking oar, and a waist rudder, it can carry up to 50 people in addition to sailors - this is one of the first two ships built by Sun Zhenwu, and it only has the ability to sail near the shore.

Such a ship is not worth mentioning if it is on the coast of the Ming Dynasty, but for Yue Tuo and even the entire Jianzhou Jurchens, it is a groundbreaking event - these savages who have just come out of the mountains and forests have finally begun to come into contact with the workshop that requires a high degree of organization and coordination, and have obtained the first results.

Of course, with Yue Tuo's current ability, he couldn't see such far-reaching significance, and his goal was simple - to build enough ships so that he could send the invincible Jurchen warriors to any part of the Bohai Bay to kill, plunder, and conquer!

Forcibly suppressing the violent churning in his stomach, Yue Tuo nodded at Sun Zhenwu, who was nodding at the boat, and said, "Not bad!" When you go back, make more as soon as possible, and I will speak for you in the Great Khan, and if the sailor can really stand up, I will reward you with a commander...... Uh, Admiral, do your job! ”

Sun Zhenwu was overjoyed, his face was smiling like a flower, and he knelt down on one knee and hit a standard Qian'er, "Huh! Minion...... Shabel ...... Reward! "In a few months, although his Manchu is no longer a problem, he still stumbles when he speaks.

Yue Tuo waved his hand, turned around and walked onto the dock, looked at the master and a few guards of the Governor's Mansion who were ordered to greet him, and then looked closely, there were a few carriages parked behind them, but there were no horses, and he couldn't help but snort heavily, "Why is Yuan Chonghuan so ignorant...... Our Jurchen warriors can only ride the fiercest horses, and the cars are only sat by girls! ”

He spoke in Manchu, and after the Mongolian lama who came with him as the interpreter translated it literally, the master's face turned white, and his lips trembled with anger—how could this governor of Jiliao call him by his name, let alone be full of provocations.

Yue Tuo was secretly proud in his heart - he did it on purpose, and this is what he wanted.

Before coming, Huang Taiji repeatedly told Yue Tuo to show his arrogance and rudeness in front of Yuan Chonghuan as much as possible, and to threaten and intimidate him as much as possible!

Huang Taiji told Yue Tuo that he didn't know the true purpose of Yuan Chonghuan's scheme, but instead of thinking that it was a conspiracy, he felt that this matter was exactly what he could use; Yuan Chonghuan hopes to gain time through peace, but he also hopes to achieve a goal that is difficult for him to achieve by releasing the smoke of peace - to get rid of Mao Wenlong!

Mao Wenlong and his Dongjiang Town were like a stinger, deeply inserted into the soft belly of the Jianzhou Jurchens, making it impossible for the warriors of Jianzhou to go west with all their strength with confidence!

As long as they wanted to make some moves in the west—whether it was attacking the Mongol Lin Dan Khan or conquering the Ming Dynasty—Mao Wenlong would probably sneak into the hinterland of Jianzhou with his soldiers named Huazi like a leopard that smelled blood.

Homicide! Grab the food! Burn down the house!

The strength of Dongjiang Town is not strong, but what makes Huang Taiji worry is that there is such a group of Liaodong people who are burdened with a sea of blood and hatred next to him, and many of his ambitious plans can only be shelved, for example, to go to the Great Wall to "fight the grass valley".

There are more people going, Dongjiang Town is bound to pour out of the nest, and if they accidentally take the nest, the little thing that is fished back is not worth the loss; There are few people who go, and Huang Taiji is worried that they will never return, after all, although Daming is weak, he is still a behemoth.

Therefore, Dongjiang Town has now become a big problem for the Jianzhou Jurchens, but Huang Taiji has no good way to take them - these people usually shrink on various islands, and the warriors who have no sailors can only sigh!

Now the opportunity has come, and this opportunity was sent by Yuan Chonghuan on his own initiative.

Yue Tuo didn't understand what Huang Taiji said later, what "Yuan Chonghuan is eager to unify military power and affairs", what "Mao Wenlong has great merit but does not know how to converge, and the court and China have deep grievances", what "Mao Wenlong is easy to commit crimes, and is the biggest threat to Yuan Chonghuan's authority", these Yue Tuo can still know ignorantly, after all, there are many contradictions between the Beile Beizi in Jianzhou and this is similar to this.

But when Huang Taiji said that "the party struggle is intensifying, no one can avoid it", what "Donglin has just gained power, and he will be in prison to consolidate his position", what "Yuan must want the party to attach to Donglin", what "the martial artist who views the world, and the unruly person is no more than Mao Wenlong" and so on, Yue Tuo heard it completely in the clouds.

However, Yue Tuo's incomprehension of these did not prevent him from making this mission, because Huang Taiji told him that he only needed to pretend to make a gesture to make Yuan Chonghuan feel that the Jianzhou Nu was really aggressive, and finally throw the bottom line out.

This was not a matter at all in Yue Tuo, who had already looked down on these weak Ming men in his heart - the victory on the battlefield made the already martial Jurchen warriors even more despise the defeated generals under him.

Sure enough, after the master trembled angrily for a long time, he forcibly suppressed his anger and explained that this was for secrecy, so he asked Yue Tuo and his party to take the carriage Yunyun, and finally Yue Tuo finally got into the carriage triumphantly after a hearty performance, and entered the city to the governor's yamen.

Yuan Chonghuan set up a banquet in a side courtyard next to the second gate to receive them, and there were only a few people such as Sun Yuanhua, Zu Dashou, and Wu Xiang as accompaniments; Soon after he sat down, Yue Tuo's arrogance made the generals so angry that one Buddha was born and two Buddhas ascended to heaven, and finally left the table angrily in Yuan Chonghuan's reprimand.

A feast ended unhappily in Yue Tuo's arrogance and nonsense, but Yuan Chonghuan showed a rare great patience and bearing, and accompanied him until the final banquet, and then retreated, leaving only two interpreters to start a secret conversation with Yue Tuo.

It was only at this time that Yue Tuo regained his original appearance and began to bargain with Yuan Chonghuan one by one.

Several of the most difficult problems were solved one by one: Yue Tuo said that Huang Taiji could give in and go to the emperor and change the Khan number; The borders of the armistice between the two sides can also be drawn at the Daling River and the Sancha River as Yuan Chonghuan wished, during which neither side will garrison troops; The New Year's coins paid by the Ming Dynasty to the Jianzhou Jurchens can be replaced by other names, and the amount can also be negotiated...... Wait a minute.

When it came to the most critical issue, that is, the Korean issue, Yue Tuo would not budge, and he said extremely strongly that unless Dongjiang Town withdrew to Shandong, or Mao Longwen resigned, the Jianzhou Jurchen would definitely attack Korea again until the latter severed all ties with Dongjiang Town.

The secret conversation of the day lasted until late at night, and when Yuan Chonghuan returned to the study in the inner courtyard, he did not see the tiredness, but was full of energy, and the eyes in the deep eye sockets shot a chilling essence.

After pacing around the room alone for a few laps, he stopped suddenly, opened the box and took out the letter from Zhang Pu, sat behind the bookcase and read it carefully, and then began to reply to the letter.

After writing the letter and loading it, Yuan Chonghuan leaned lightly on the back of the chair, looked at the southeast, and muttered in a voice so low that people couldn't hear it at all.

"When? Fate? (To be continued.) )
