Gan Ning first took the navy and set off from Bozhou to Yizhou, and then a large number of returning ocean-going navy stayed in Yizhou to train new ships on the spot, while Gan Ning took a small number of people and changed to a new ship and returned to the port outside Jinling with the harvest of this trip.

The news that the ocean-going navy rushed back "in time" quickly spread in the state of Chu, but it was ...... Is there an impermeable wall in the world?

Although it has been replaced with a new ship, it is Bozhou and Yizhou, and the number of people is obviously wrong.

The so-called "emergency training" as a reason is obviously untenable - no matter what, there is no time to even come back to see it, right?

Therefore, the news about the "heavy losses of the ocean-going navy" was also very loud for a while.

The major folk newspapers also played an active role at this time, analyzing current affairs and guiding and appeasing the people's emotions, as for the other princes...... Most of them focused on watching and scouting, especially the Wei State, which was at odds with the Chu State at sea!

The mood in the country was quickly calmed down, in addition to Di Bao's merits, it was also because of Gan Ning's voyage, which did have actual achievements.

Brought back several cabins of gold - real gold, not brass!

There are also various "treasures" named in the white map - sweet potatoes, potatoes, corn, cotton...... and a lot of rubber trees and cinchona trees brought back by the roots of the soil......

From a utilitarian point of view, just the gold brought back is already worth the ticket price, and it is even enough to pay for the pension of "most of the injuries", offset the cost of training, and have a surplus.

Not to mention all kinds of miraculous crops......

Bai Tu was very honest, and ordered the estimated yield of corn and other crops to be achieved after breeding into various newspapers, and promised to promote it within three years.

He also talked about the superiority of cotton as a winter coat filler, and also reported its estimated yield and role truthfully.

There is also the quinine of the cinchona tree, which can produce miraculous effects on malaria......

It can be said that Bai Tu is rarely so "honest", and the products of the plan that have not yet been realized and can be kept secret for a period of time have been popularized to the people in advance!

It is also these "sacred objects" that make the people of Chu gradually accept the conclusion that "this is a profitable exploration".

It's just that......

In the past, they were very sensitive to the information of the Chu State, especially when there were new inventions and new crops, and the princes and spies who swarmed up like flies regarded the "earth-shattering discovery" of the Chu State as if they were on their tracks.

Whether it is Wei Guo, Qi Hou, or Zheng Hou, they all show disdain for these great discoveries, and have no intention of delving into them, as if to say: You are happy......

After all, from their point of view, Chu's propaganda is either to appease the people, or ...... It's Baitu who has hysteria!

What good things have happened to you?

It's subsistence, and it's the cold...... Why don't you say that on the overseas immortal island, you can grow heavenly soldiers and heavenly futures?

This is actually the purpose of the white picture, to be precise...... It's Jia Xu's suggestion!

Chu Chen, who really knows that everything is true, except for Gan Ning and the ocean-going navy, there are only the great scholars of the palace.

Others, whether it is the Department of Agricultural Sciences of the Ministry of Engineering or the School of Medicine, at most, only know that the part they are responsible for is true.

Among the courtiers, although they also advertise according to "it is true", I am afraid that no one doubts it behind the scenes......

This trick of fiction and reality is naturally Jia Xu's idea.

Sure enough, Cao Cao and Liu Bei didn't believe it, even if it was Zhuge Liang, Guo Jia, Sima Yi and other wise people, they only left a layer of doubt in their hearts - could it be that part of it is actually true, but Chu State exaggerated the propaganda?

But after all, they didn't pay much attention to it, after all, at present, these things can be transformed into hard power, which is not something that can be done in one or two years.

On the contrary, just as Jia Xu thought, from the return of Gan Ning and the unreliable "boasting" of the Chu State, outsiders basically determined that the ocean-going navy had suffered "heavy losses"!

Even though he still had doubts in his heart, thinking that it might be a false plan of the Chu State, after receiving further information and learning that the navy had only returned with 8,000 men and most of the ships were missing, the suspicions were completely erased.

After all, these are the facts......

Unless it can be accurately probed that thirty percent of the 8,000 men are generals, and the military appearance is not false and the spirit of the army is not scattered, can they realize that the losses of the ocean-going navy are not as heavy as they imagined.

However, the eyeliner they can insert is obviously not up to the level of seeing the whole picture!

Therefore, in the eyes of Cao Cao and Liu Bei, Bai Tu's so-called emergency training in Yizhou was more like isolating the remnants of the returning ocean-going navy in order to avoid the spread of panic.

In this way, it made them even more convinced that the Chu navy was weak!

Liu Bei had already been ordered to support the Xiliang army and not to mention, after Cao Cao learned the news, the entire fleet of Wei was a little stronger in the Bohai Sea.

came and went, which made Xiahou Juan's mood also depressed - anyone with a discerning eye could see that although Wei did not border with Chu, he was afraid that it would not be long before there would be a big war with Chu......

Unless the state of Chu takes the initiative to withdraw from the Bohai Sea, or even from Bozhou, it is possible to avoid it!

However, this did not affect Bai Tu's attitude towards Xiahou Juan, not long ago when Gan Ning just came back and had a banquet with Bai Tu, Bai Tu also asked his daughter "Bai Ningning" and recognized Gan Ning as her father-in-law.

First, Xiao Ningning seems to like the appearance of flowers, and is very close to Gan Ning, who is full of flowers, and secondly, ...... Bai Ningning's name can't be explained at a glance, and Gan Ning doesn't accept the statement "This is missing you".

So Bai Tu simply asked Xiao Ningning to recognize him as his father-in-law, and now Gan Ning finally had nothing to say......

But the giggling little Ning Ning naturally didn't know that her godfather was about to go and have a lively fight with her grandfathers and uncles who she had never met!

Gan Ning also deliberately teased Xiao Ningning and said: "Hahaha, my father-in-law won't let you admit it in vain, after a few months, my father-in-law will invite your grandfather and uncle over!" ”

It is a rare thing for a princess to recognize someone as her father-in-law, especially in the capacity of Gan Ning...... If it was replaced by a prince, the court would have already quarreled, and it would have been speculated that Bai Tu would "abolish the elder and establish the young" and support a certain prince.

But the words of the princess ......

Although the State of Chu advocates equality between men and women, everyone still does not consider women as heirs in their hearts, at most, they only let others know again that the relationship between the King of Chu and Mrs. Xiahou is very good.

At the same time, the training of the navy and the construction of small warships and warships have become the top priority of the Chu State in the next few months.

Because the weather was in winter, the climate of the Bohai Sea was not suitable for winter war, and the two countries of Chu and Wei maintained the last peace......
