"Li, Li, Li Yuanba?" Hearing Li Yuanba's self-introduction, Hua Qing, who was at the front, was about to speak when he was preempted by Ma Lin at the back.

"Isn't that His Royal Highness the Martial King of the Tang Dynasty?" There was some surprise in the words of the heavy text.

Although his eldest son had already sent back the news before, saying that Chang'an had sent someone, he didn't expect that the person who came turned out to be Li Yuanba, the martial king.

"The last general, Huaqing, has seen His Royal Highness the Tang Dynasty King Wu!" After a little silence, Hua Qing reacted and hurriedly bowed to Li Yuanba.

"The last general has seen His Royal Highness the Great Tang Dynasty Martial King!"

The others didn't dare to slack off, and followed behind Hua Qing to salute Li Yuanba.

"Hahaha, you are not my subjects of the Tang Dynasty, don't mention the title of the martial king, or call me the fourth prince according to your rules!" Li Yuanba waved his hand and motioned for everyone to get up quickly.

"This ......" Hearing Li Yuanba's words, Hua Qing looked at Li Jiancheng's words with some hesitation, as if he didn't know how to answer.

"Listen to him!" Li Jiancheng didn't care about these details, "Okay, these are trivial things!" Where did Yao Hesheng and Chen Hua go? ”

Hua Qing first nodded to Li Yuanba, and then continued to say to Li Jiancheng: "Lord Yao is still in the city to appease the people, as for Admiral Chen, he left Guangyang City early yesterday morning, and I don't know where he went!" ”

"It's really time for this aging to leave!" Li Jiancheng grinned and said, "Send someone to find him and call him back to me!" What is the chaos in the city, and he is still running around, his heart is really big enough, I think he, the admiral of Guangyang City, doesn't want to do it. ”

"Eldest prince, it's not that you don't know Lord Chen's temperament, and we, the people below, can't persuade him at all!" Hua Qing said helplessly.

Although Hua Qing and Yao Hesheng were the military and political chiefs of Guangyang City and several surrounding cities, they actually had a great god pressed on top of their heads. That is what Li Fazhong had mentioned before, the admiral Chen of these cities.

"If it weren't for this guy's loyalty to the eldest prince and his great skill in commanding troops, I would have cleaned him up for the eldest prince!" Li Fazhong seems to be very familiar with Chen Hua, and his words are full of indignation.

"Okay, you two guys have been fighting for more than ten years, no one is convinced, it's still like this now, you don't get annoyed, I'm annoyed!"

Li Jiancheng glared at Li Fazhong angrily. He turned his head to Li Yuanba and said, "Yuanba, don't you know that these two stinky boys have never stopped under my hands!" ”

"If this subordinate doesn't have a healthy competition and just blindly does what the boss has explained, wouldn't it be no different from cattle and sheep and other livestock?" Li Yuanba laughed, "So, this subordinate has a little idea, and fighting each other can have better development!" ”

Hearing Li Yuanba's words, Li Jiancheng's eyes couldn't help but light up. Said: "It's the first time I've heard of your statement, but such a reason sounds a little reasonable." ”

Li Yuanba said with a smile: "Okay." Eldest brother! Do you want to talk to me here? ”

"Look at me!" Li Jiancheng slapped his palms and said, "Let's go, why did you stop while talking?" Let's go. If you go one way forward, there is a junction to the City Lord's Mansion, let's hurry over! ”

……

It is more than ten miles from the sea on the north side of Okinawa's Oshima Island. A medium-sized clipper ship was speeding forward, and several men in merchant robes sat in the cabin, looking anxious.

"Admiral, why are you in a hurry to go to Linyi this time?" An old man dressed in a butler's costume stood beside a middle-aged man with a short beard and an elegant appearance, and asked with some confusion.

Since these small island countries near Dengzhou were successively attacked by the Shenwuwei army and the navy army under Li Yuanba, the forestry and mining aspects of some small islands have also flourished.

Especially Linyi, since it was beaten down by Li Yuanba, it has been arranged to become a large grain production island, and Linyi's grain production has also become more prosperous.

Another point to mention is that the whole island is now full of edible food by the islanders, except for some simple mining, and the people of the island have also become laborers who grow food.

Fortunately, Li Yuanba is not Zhou Peel, and he also gives some wages to these island people who have become laborers, at least so that they can live.

In Li Yuanba's words, it's not us Tang people anyway, give them some money, enough to spend.

"We don't have enough food in Guangyang City, what if we don't go to Linyi to buy it?" The elegant middle-aged man frowned a little distressedly and said.

"Then we can buy it from a few other cities?" The old man of the housekeeper raised his eyebrows, looking at his appearance, he obviously knew that the relationship between his admiral and Li Fazhong, the admiral of Huayang City, was not harmonious.

The elegant middle-aged man's head shook like a rattle, and said: "No, that's absolutely not good, if you go to other cities to buy it, it will definitely reach the ears of Li Fazhong's old boy, then won't he be laughed at to death by him at that time?" ”

"Then we are taking too much risk this time, this has been out for a day and a half, if Yang Jian leads the army to attack in the past two days, Guangyang City will be in danger!" The old man's face couldn't help but look a little worried.

"Chen Zhong, can't you read Guangyang City?" The elegant middle-aged man glared at the old man angrily, and said, "Besides, Huaqing and Yao Hesheng are both in the city, these two people are both literate and martial, even if there is any emergency, they can solve it!" ”

"But ......"

The old man, who was called Lin Zhong by the elegant middle-aged man, wanted to say something more, but at this time, the soldiers who had been standing on the deck in charge of safety protection hurriedly ran in and said to the elegant middle-aged man:

"Admiral, sail a little further and we will reach the Twin Straits, do we need to bypass it?"

"The Twin Straits?" The elegant middle-aged man's brows furrowed, "Isn't it just to Linyi after crossing the Twin Straits, why do you want to go around it?" ”

"Admiral, I heard from the people below that there are many bandits in the Twin Straits, and there have been cases of Persian merchant ships coming and going to our island before, which were robbed by pirates in the Twin Straits!"

Chen Zhong twisted his brows and thought for a while, and continued: "It seems that some time ago, there were merchant ships that came to our City Lord's Mansion to beg, wanting us to send troops to the Twin Straits and snatch their merchant ships back. ”

"And this? How did I not know? The elegant middle-aged man stood up suddenly and said, "Why hasn't anyone told me before, did he Yao Hesheng still take me into account?" (To be continued.) )
