66 The First Battle of the Taiwan Strait (14)

The water princess said: "Please General Pingdong and General Fubo come forward to meet." ”

Hua Erduo ordered: "Please meet General Pingdong and General Fubo." ”

Water chestnut said: "Two generals, please." ”

Wei Wen, Zhuge walked forward and said, "See the princess." ”

The water princess said: "The two generals are guests from afar, please take a seat." ”

Wei Wen, Zhuge said straightly: "Thank you for sitting." ”

The water princess said: "People from my hometown come from afar, and a cup of tea is not a tribute." Four sisters, please make kung fu tea with your heart and ask the two generals to taste it. ”

Hua Sihua stepped forward to make kung fu tea: boil water in a copper kettle with charcoal fire, scald the cup with boiling water, pot, put tea into the Yixing pot, wash the tea all over the head, pour tea twice, and give a cup to the water princess, Wei Wen, and Zhuge Zhi respectively.

The water princess tasted tea and said: "The two generals think that Alishan tea is better than Hangzhou Longjing?" ”

Zhuge said straightly: "The entrance is very good, with a very aftertaste, compared with Longjing, each has a flavor." ”

Wei Wen took a closer look at the water princess, was taken aback, and whispered to Zhuge Zhi: "This water princess looks like a big tiger princess." ”

Zhuge nodded straightly.

The water princess said: "What did General Pingdong and General Fubo say?" But it doesn't hurt to say that. ”

Zhuge said straightly: "General Pingdong said that the princess looks like a big tiger princess. ”

The water princess asked, "What do you think?" ”

Zhuge said straightly: "The young general thinks that this is indeed the case. ”

The water princess laughed and said, "General Fubo is bad." It's not that I look like the big tiger princess, but the big tiger princess looks like me. ”

Zhuge said straightly: "Yes, yes." ”

The water princess asked, "The two generals came all the way to Yizhou, why did they do business?" ”

Wei Wen didn't dare to answer, and looked at Zhuge Zhi.

Zhuge said straightly: "The two young generals made a special trip to invite the princess back to Jianye and recognize the saint by the holy order. ”

The water princess said, "What else?" ”

Zhuge said straightly: "There is also a trip to Bozhou along the way." ”

The water princess said: "Hehe, this road is 28,000 miles." ”

Wei Wen and Zhuge Zhi were taken aback and said, "Twenty-eight thousand miles? Where is Bozhou, please give the princess advice. ”

The water princess said: "I don't know much about Bozhou, please ask General Lu Wei to explain the doubts of the two." ”

Lu Wei said: "Bozhou, go to Yizhou to the east for 28,000 miles, and the middle is a vast ocean, boundless. Bozhou, rich in sandalwood, red sandalwood also, that is, commonly known as Honolulu. There are also few residents. Occasionally, carrying a ship of rosewood to the sea to trade, only China's wealth, can be sold at a good price, and it is very easy to sell, so there will be occasional Bozhou guests to trade, after the transaction, Bozhou customers are full of silk, porcelain, bronze mirrors, ironware and the like. Since there are not many locals and there is little consumption, there is a boat coming and going for a long time. ”

Wei Wen said: "I heard that there is a sacred mountain in Bozhou, and there is an immortal medicine on the mountain. Back then, Xu Fu led 3,000 boys and girls to go and didn't return, but was there such a thing? ”

Lu Weidao: "I have never heard that there are sacred mountains, immortal medicines, and volcanoes in Bozhou. As for the place where Xu Fu went and didn't return, it should be Fusang, not Bozhou. ”

Wei Wen said straight to Zhuge : "Fusang? Didn't you detain a Fuso guest before we set out on our expedition? ”

The water chestnut immediately listened.

The water princess said, "May I ask General Fubo, why are you detaining Fusangke?" ”

Zhuge Zhi said embarrassedly: "At that time, the port was closed, and this Fusang guest released carrier pigeons, so he was detained." Later, I learned that he was not allowed to return to Nagasaki, and he was afraid that his wife at home would worry, so he released a carrier pigeon to report his safety, and there was no evil intention. So I put it away. ”

The water princess nodded, looked at the water chestnut, and the water chestnut was relieved.

Zhuge said straightly: "Since the princess is a senior of Dongwu, she asked for advice as a student in her later life, isn't it abrupt?" ”

The water princess said: "Who is General Fubo's teacher?" ”

Zhuge said straightly: "The young general's teacher is the Metropolitan Governor Lu Xun. ”

The water princess said: "Since she is a student of the younger generation, you can only ask if you have something to say, and you don't have to be formal." ”

Wei Wen was taken aback and said, "The princess calls the Metropolitan Governor a junior? ”

The water princess nodded conceitedly.

Wei Wen said: "Late birth is rude, the princess is really good at beauty." ”

The water princess smiled: "Why did General Pingdong say this? ”

Wei Wen said: "Born in his later years, most of the governors are much older than the princess. ”

The water princess smiled, noncommittal, and said straight to Zhuge : "General Fubo had something to ask just now?" ”

Zhuge said straightly: "As soon as our army arrived in Yizhou, it was attacked from front to back, just right, very measured, and it seemed that it had been prepared for a long time. I wonder how the princess learned about our army's movements? ”

The water princess said: "General Fubo, do you know about Gongsun Yuan's invasion of Yizhou in the past?" ”

Zhuge said straightly: "Hearsay, the young general knows a little bit about it." It is said that the princess's navy is brave and victorious in a battle to destroy the enemy. ”

The water princess nodded and said, "Yes, if there is no plan, how can you win the battle?" ”

The water princess took a sip of tea and said: "Although Yizhou is located in a remote area, it is an important place for coastal defense in the southeast, and there are not a few people who intend to get involved. Therefore, it has become natural for the military and civilians in Yizhou to be unremittingly prepared. ”

The water princess saw that Zhuge Zhi was still puzzled, so she pointed to the lookout and said, "Two generals, please look, this lookout is guarded day and night. As long as there is a threat from a warship, immediately know in advance. I'm going to make arrangements right away, and I'm going to be able to do it with confidence. ”

Zhuge Zhi nodded yes when he heard this, but he was still puzzled and asked, "How does the princess know the location of the flagship of my fleet and the grain and grass ships?" ”

The water princess smiled: "When I looked at the lookout, your fleet discharged a menacing two-headed snake formation, and I knew where the flagship was. There is a total of one tail at both ends, and if the tail is injured, both ends will be injured, so there is no doubt that the grain and grass ship must be its tail. ”

Wei Wen sighed: "It seems that the formation of our fleet is not good. ”

The water princess smiled: "The formation of your army seems to be excellent. The two-headed snake formation attack is extremely strong. Imagine if an enemy fleet is bitten by a two-headed snake, and the left and right sides are attacked by rockets at the same time, it will be very difficult to organize an effective counterattack. As the Two-Headed Serpent fleet moved on, the enemy fleet was bound to encounter one two-sided attack after another, which was so continuous and incessant that the enemy could not not counterattack, but could not escape, and the result was that it was all destroyed, and only in the first round. After the first round, depending on the situation, the two-headed snake will have endless changes. ”

Wei Wen and Zhuge looked at each other, shook their heads and sighed to themselves.

Princess Shui said: "The palace has something to leave Yizhou for a while, so I can't go back to the court with the two generals." In the future, I will take the opportunity to go to Jianye to meet with the emperor to reminisce about the past. When the two generals returned to Dongwu Mianjun, please explain to the emperor what they saw and heard that Emperor Yizhou has been built into a stable township, which has played a role as a barrier to the stability of the southeast of Dongwu, and the emperor can rest assured. ”

Zhuge said straightly: "The young general has the courage to ask the princess for instructions, although our fleet has arrived in Yizhou, but I don't know anything about Yizhou, and I implore the princess to allow the Dongwu fleet to go around the island along the coast." ”

The water princess said: "This palace knows that your army has no intention of harassing the stability of Yizhou, so I should assist your army fleet around the island." Acting chief of water chestnut. ”

Water chestnut said: "Yes." ”

The water princess said: "During my absence in Yizhou, you should notify the military and civilians in various places to give great assistance to the Dongwu fleet in the operation around the island." When the two generals returned to the court, they could describe the current situation of Yizhou in detail, so that the emperor would be relieved. ”

Water chestnut said: "Yes, I will assist General Pingdong and General Fubo to successfully complete the trip around the island." ”

The water princess said to Wei Wen and Zhuge directly: "General Pingdong, General Fubo, if you encounter difficulties, please find General Water Chestnut." General Lingjiao once participated in the Battle of Chibi and has experienced a hundred battles, please trust her. ”

Zhuge Zhi, Wei Wen said: "It turns out that General Water Chestnut is actually the acting chief. I thought it was a herald before, but it was really disrespectful. ”

The water princess said, "Good! The two generals, the main palace took their leave first. Lotus leaf, Long Hong, let's go. ”

Everyone said: "Congratulations to the princess." ”

The water princess, lotus leaf, Long Hong, lotus core and others took more than half of the soldiers and female soldiers away.

The water princess, lotus leaf, Long Hong, lotus core and others went away in the wind on the warship.
