Chapter 31: Prestige Enhancement

"Are you ......" Liu Ju pointed to Li Su's background and couldn't speak, he was angry in his heart, he didn't expect Li Su, as the prince of the Tang Dynasty, to play such a rogue trick with himself, for the sake of a few businessmen, he even disregarded his own safety, with the temperament that Li Su showed just now, he definitely did this kind of thing.

"General, His Royal Highness the King of Qi has left, do you see if we are ......" A Zhongyun general saw Liu Ju standing there and was angry, afraid that Li Ju would really go by fishing boat, so he stepped forward and reminded.

"What are you still doing in a daze, hurry up and assemble all the fleets for me, and sail to Beisha City!" Liu Ju came to his senses, and immediately vented the sullenness he had suffered from Li Su on his subordinates, and yelled angrily at the generals in the hall.

These generals saw that the usually good-tempered General Liu was angry, and they were so frightened that they didn't dare to have any objections, and rushed out of the hall to assemble the team and get on the ship.

"Haha, Liulang, listen, the military camp behind has been assembled, it seems that your method has worked." Yanbei listened to the sound of the horns assembled in the barracks, and chased after Li Sudao in front with a proud face.

"Your Highness is really powerful, I thought this matter had collapsed just now, but I didn't expect the peak to turn around, or His Highness is a chess player!" Su Dingfang also said happily, he didn't think there was anything wrong with Li Su's last words, in his opinion, as long as he could get things done, it didn't matter what means he used.

"Hehe, we have to talk, hurry up and get the best civilian boats in Dengzhou Mansion ready for me, we are going to cross the Bohai Bay with them." Li said without looking back. If he uses this method to force Liu Ju to send troops, it will definitely reach the ears of some well-intentioned people, and it must be another burst of participation, but Li Su doesn't care, anyway, he is now worth hard, and there are countless people in Chang'an City who will help him say good celebrations, and there is nothing to worry about at all.

It was during the time when Li Su rushed to the barracks. The news of the Tiger Shark Slave Catcher being detained by Goguryeo has spread from the dock to Dengzhou, and at the same time, the news of Li Su's determination to rescue has also been spread by people with good intentions, and everyone has been touched by His Royal Highness the King of Qi, who loves the people like a son...... Later, when the news came out that Li Su was going to go to Goguryeo in person, countless Dengzhou people were even more moved, especially the slave catching teams under the name of the slave hunting association. Almost everyone was moved to tears, and their hearts were also burning with the ambition of 'death for their confidants', it is estimated that at this time, Li Su just let them jump into the sea, and they will definitely not frown.

And when Li Su's order to choose the best ship was issued, it immediately received a response from countless ship owners, if his own ship was selected, not only could he indirectly do a good thing for Dengzhou and increase his reputation, but also could please His Royal Highness the King of Qi, and even showed that the quality of his own ship was excellent. This kind of good thing that kills three birds with one stone is naturally everyone competing for the first.

When the ship was ready, countless Dengzhou people who had received the news rushed to the dock to see off their beloved His Royal Highness King Qi. At the same time, all the slave catchers who were still in Dengzhou gathered here. He was going to go to Beisha City with Li Su, and swore to protect the safety of His Royal Highness King Qi.

Looking at the reverent eyes on the dock, and then looking at the resolute faces on the slave catcher ship next to him, Li Su was also excited and couldn't help himself, once upon a time, he actually became a figure admired by everyone? Although Li Su has always felt that he has done too little. But these people in front of them obviously don't think so, and a pair of eyes full of truth make people dare not look directly.

However, just when Li Su was intoxicated with this feeling of being admired, he came up uninterestingly and poured cold water on himself, only to hear Yang Shi who had just arrived next to him say: "Your Highness, Miss Wu explains, let you say a few more touching words, so that your prestige among the people of Dengzhou and the slave catcher team will be unmatched, this is a huge political capital." ”

"Yang Shi, you are usually quite clever, why are you so blind now?" Li Xuan said angrily. This time, by begging for the detained slave catching team, Wu Meiniang sent people to spread the news everywhere in order to enhance Li Su's reputation, and set up Li Su as a prince image for the country and the people.

Speaking of Wu Meiniang, Li Su had an incredible feeling, last time he misunderstood that he was because he liked her, so he sent someone to kidnap her, and Li Su simply made a mistake and generously admitted that he liked Wu Meiniang.

Wu Meiniang is a very smart woman, knowing that even if she escapes back to Chang'an now, her fate will definitely be very tragic, at least it is impossible to enter the palace, after all, she is a weak woman, she has been kidnapped for so long, who will believe that she is still perfect? Coupled with that beautiful misunderstanding, she also had a strange feeling for Li Su in her heart, a Tianhuang nobleman dared to commit such a heinous crime for the daughter of a declining nobleman like herself, how could this kind of courage and means make her not break for it?

It was in this situation that Wu Meiniang almost followed Li Su with all her heart. But she is destined to be a person who can't see the light, plus she usually has the most contact with Yang Shi and his wife, and slowly became interested in intelligence work, and began to help Li Su deal with some intelligence matters, and Li Su is also very relieved of her, and now Wu Meiniang has almost become Li Su's ears and sharp weapons in the dark, and she can help herself do some things that cannot be put on the table, such as building momentum for herself this time.

"Hehe, Your Highness, Miss Wu is also afraid that you have been negligent and have not been able to achieve the greatest effect." Yang Shi didn't care about Li Meiniang's words, but reminded him again that he was directly responsible to Li Su in the past, but now that Wu Meiniang has arrived, they have become responsible to Wu Meiniang, and the information will be handed over to Li Su after Wu Meiniang's selection and screening.

Li Su glared at Yang Shiyi fiercely, it was obviously a good thing, but when it came to the hands of Wu Meiniang and Yang Shi, they were used and used as a tool to enhance their prestige, making themselves look like a liar.

Although he disdained to be in the company of a black-bellied man like Yang Shi, it was still necessary to say a few words, so he walked up to the bow of the boat and pressed his hands against the people on the dock, so that most of the people were quiet, and only the sound of waves crashing against the embankment was heard in the entire port.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I, Li Su, am guarding Dengzhou on behalf of my father, and I am naturally trying my best to make the people of Dengzhou live a prosperous and happy life, and the changes during this period of time must be felt by everyone. But opposite our Dengzhou is Goguryeo, this small country has been encroaching on the land of my Han people since the Han Dynasty, and now there is no one in sight, even our people in Dengzhou dare to detain it, although I Li Su is not talented, but I will definitely not let my people of the Tang Dynasty be bullied, this time the king decided to personally go to the opposite Beisha City to reason with them, and swear not to give up without releasing hostages! ”

Although Li Su also wanted to talk about the level, but unfortunately, there was not much ink in his stomach, so he had no choice but to come up with a way, and put himself and Datang in the position of the weak, which suddenly detonated the atmosphere on the scene. Many people scolded Goguryeo for being shameless, while more people persuaded Li Su not to take risks, after all, a virtuous king like Li Su shouldered a heavy responsibility, and it was not a wise man to take risks easily.

In the end, in the farewell of everyone on the dock, more than a dozen ships took the royal guards and Li Su, Yanbei and others, and there was a circle of slave hunting boat guards next to them, forming a large fleet and leaving the port together.

And at the same time as they left the port, the naval warships in the military port next to them finally started, and the tall building ships came out one after another, and then some Mengchong, fighting ships and other auxiliary ships, and even Li Su also saw a kind of steamer with paddle wheels on both sides, this should be the kind of famous car and ship in history, which is powered by pedals, and the speed is extremely fast when running.

Li Su's merchant ships were in front, and Liu Ju's naval warships were behind. Brave the wind and waves and sail towards the city of Beisha. Li Su stood on the front merchant ship, but his eyes kept staring at the building ships behind him, probably because of the full load of personnel, the draft of the building ships behind him was deeper than usual, but unfortunately the center of gravity was still upward, so that in the same wind and waves, these tall building ships often swing more than other ships.

Looking at those building ships like tumblers in the water, Li Su shook his head secretly, when the Fu ship and the Galen ship were trial-produced, Li Su had recommended these two new ships to the navy, among which the Galen ship did not say, the Fu ship is a typical Chinese ship, this kind of ship is the first high, the impact is very strong, you can press the opponent's ship underwater, the most suitable for warships, the warships of the Ming Dynasty are almost all filled by the Fu boat, but unfortunately no matter how good the ship is, it can not resist the traditional inertia, for this kind of pointed bottom draft and deep boat, the navy still does not dare to adopt, Therefore, warships are still the world of building ships.

Just when Li Su and their huge fleet were heading towards Beisha City, there was a torture going on in the Goguryeo water barracks outside the city, and the tortured party was the group of tiger sharks who were captured, among which the smiling tiger and the one-eyed shark were the leaders, and they were taken care of more, and now the two were in a separate cell, both of them were covered in blood, and their expressions were extremely depressed, and they seemed to have suffered a lot.

"Hurry up and tell Lao Tzu, where is that person?" A fat and tall guy with a whip in his hand, blinking small eyes like mung beans, looked at the two of them left and right with a fierce look.

"Phew~, I don't know!" The one-eyed shark was still very hard, spitting bloody foam, with an unyielding expression on his face.

"Official, we are all honest businessmen, who are you looking for?" Despite a lot of torture, the smiley tiger's natural smile still had a faint smile. (Your support on this site is my biggest motivation.) )
