"What? What are you talking about?" The young man who was still lazily lying on the dragon bed and didn't want to move suddenly jumped up, rushed over with three steps and two steps, snatched the secret letter in the hand of the man who was reading down, and at a glance and ten lines, all doubts were immediately solved, and his handsome face suddenly became extremely hideous: "Okay, you old nine! Be bold, I can't accept it! I said why my father's surname has changed so much, so it is!"

Like a lion trapped in a cage, the young man paced back and forth in the spacious cabin, his face full of irritability, the old nine soldiers were in danger, obviously they had already concluded that their father had no chance to go to court, so that all his arrangements could be successfully implemented by taking this opportunity, whether it was himself or the eldest brother and the third brother, they had already lost first, and they were excluded from the city, and they could never be compared with the old nine who were in the center of the empire.

Although most of the Seventh Army has returned to Jiangnan, but the losses are not small, and it is urgent to replenish the troops and run in training, although the Eighth Army has been formed, but for these soldiers from the Jiangnan Prefectures, Situ Yuan does not report much hope, the soldiers from these areas have always been weak, if they want to train in a short time, I am afraid that no one will be able to fight this guarantee.

"Your Highness, there is no evidence for this kind of thing, now the initiative of Yanjing is in the hands of His Highness the Nine, even if there is suspicion, no one in the ministers dares to make a mistake lightly, but what His Highness the Nine has done has given us a signal, that is, Your Majesty may not have much time to say, otherwise His Highness the Nine would not dare to be so presumptuous, since he has accelerated the pace of action, I am afraid that we cannot lag behind, and his subordinates judge that His Highness should have received similar information, so he will leave the north and return to Yanjing, and His Royal Highness may not be able to Yanjing in a few days. The man in the green shirt shook his feather fan and pondered.

"Sir, do you mean that I am also looking for a chance to return to Yanjing?" The young man straightened his clothes, pushed open the porthole, and looked at the rippling blue sea, the white sails were dotted, the gulls were flying, and the scenery was pleasant.

"Yanjing will definitely go back, but I am not in a hurry in these two days, there is His Royal Highness there to support, I don't think the situation will change much, if the Third Highness also returns to Beijing, then we also have enough reasons to return to Beijing, after all, His Majesty's body is also the heir of a human heir should be concerned, His Royal Highness may wish to inspect the seventh and eighth legions again in the past few days, and communicate with Liao Qichang and the main officials of the naval fleet. The man in the green shirt spoke slowly but methodically.

"Well, it makes sense, if my brothers have returned to Beijing, if I don't go back, it seems that I am a little hypocritical. The man in the green shirt smiled slightly, "Is there any news from my uncle?"

"Nothing out of the ordinary, didn't the Duke of Ulris last time write that he had persuaded His Majesty King Louis XI to decide to support His Highness?" the man in the green shirt shook his fan and chuckled.

"Well, but there is still the Prime Minister, Bedrich is not a fuel-efficient lamp, his view of the situation is extremely accurate, these troubles within our empire can't hide from his eyes at all, my uncle wrote that if he can't be convinced, I'm afraid that even with the approval of His Majesty, his proposal will be difficult to be approved by the Council of State, so it is imperative to do the work of Duke Beddorich, and now it depends on what Duke Bedor will ask. Sighing lightly, the young man subconsciously shook his head, everything needs to be paid, it just depends on the number. The room fell silent for a moment, as if both of them were thinking about this question, and the blue waves gently lapped the side of the ship, like a huge cradle swaying slowly, indescribably quiet and pleasant.

"Your Highness, the time is almost up, or you won't be able to catch up with the dinner that the He family has prepared for you. The man in the green shirt glanced at the chiming clock in the corner of the cabin and said in a deep voice.

"Well, let's go, don't live up to the kindness of He Yunguo, we also need the support of these people, the formation and training expenses of the Tenth Legion this time also depend on the help of these families, otherwise I don't know where this money comes from." The young man nodded, "It's too difficult to get Liao Qichang to take out two of them, and I still haven't figured out what this guy's mind is." ”

"Your Highness doesn't have to worry too much, as long as we firmly control the seventh and twelfth legions, even if Liao Qichang has any ideas, it is useless, just the strength of the naval fleet can't make much waves, not to mention that there is the Kingdom of Milan behind your back, what you need to consider now is the actions of several other Highnesses. The man in the green shirt smiled slightly and widened his master's heart.

The hull of the boat shook slightly, slowly moving forward, the young man stood at the porthole, quietly looking out of the window, the sea breeze brought a faint smell of salt, the young man seemed to like this smell very much, couldn't help but take a deep breath, and didn't care too much about the words of the man in the green shirt standing in the cabin.

"Have you behaved in any way during this period of time?" asked a question as if the young man who had been admiring the sea view.

"Oh, the Japanese have been very calm for a while, since the last sneak attack on the port of sea cucumber, the navy sent a fleet to clean up, and fought two battles with the Japanese fleet, the Japanese have escaped with the familiarity of the sea conditions, the loss is not big, but since then it seems to have been much quieter, even those who often go to sea are rarely seen. The man in the green shirt replied after a little thought.

In fact, ronin is synonymous with a small group of Japanese pirates, those who have lost their land and identity in the middle and lower class of Japanese people in order to make a living, they have gathered together, formed armed groups, and went to sea in groups, from robbing fishermen on the sea to robbing passing caravans, and even developed to go ashore to rob villages and market towns in coastal areas, becoming a recognized scourge for the people and localities along the coast of the Great Eastern Ocean. As these people became more and more rampant and their power gradually expanded, they also occupied some small islands as storage points for their fresh water and supplies, and looked for suitable people along the mainland coast as agents for selling stolen goods and supplies.

"There's definitely something wrong here, and behind the calm is often a harbinger of conspiracy. A wry smile appeared on the corner of the young man's mouth, "When did those ronins become so honest and obedient? I have never seen them so quiet even when a hurricane comes, what do you think they will do?"

"What else can you do? Now that the Japanese are gradually united under the command of the Tachihara family, their ambitions are obvious, and the next target is either Kamchatka or Treasure Island, and the sneak attack on Vladivostok Harbor is just a test and intimidation, first, to test the reaction of the Empire, and second, to scare away the inhabitants who originally lived on Kamchatka Island with bloody terror methods to facilitate their next plan. The man in the green shirt seemed to know the surname and the inside story of the Japanese people very well, and he came with it and talked endlessly.

"Sir, do you mean that the next target of the Japanese will be the whole of Kamchatka?" the young man asked, startled, turning to his face and staring at the other man's face.

Shrugging his shoulders, the man in the green shirt did not change his face, and said indifferently: "The Ryukyu Islands have been sacked by the Japanese like the Cook Islands of the Dodon people, and my subordinates judge that the occupation of these places will be the first step taken by the Japanese people to realize their ambition to dominate the East, especially Kamchatka!"

"How can you see that?" the young man's interest was aroused, he did not expect that his military advisor would have such a thorough understanding of the changes in the situation in the Great Eastern Ocean.

"Your Highness, you can see the geographical situation map of the Great Eastern Ocean. Kamchatka Island is located between the Cook Islands, the Ryukyu Islands, and Treasure Islands, and is very close to the Japanese frontier Onijima and the Kuril Islands, and even from the base camp of the Japanese people, Shikashima Island, is similar to the distance from the empire, so it can be said that it is really an excellent location. And it is precisely this Kamchatka island that is vast and sparsely populated, the population of the entire island does not exceed 50,000, and the ghost island, which is quite similar to Kamchatka in terms of area and natural environment, has a population of more than 600,000, which is more than ten times the population of the empire on Kamchatka, and the island is widely forested, and there are good harbors suitable for port, if a port is built in the west of Kamchatka, it can directly overlook the vast coastal area of the empire, but such a fertile and precious island, the empire does not even have a regular army stationed, and even the naval army is only a detachment to guard, and it has been wiped out in the last Japanese raid, in this case, Your Highness, think about it, would the Japanese be willing to give up such a tempting opportunity?" The man in the green shirt was full of interest as soon as he talked about this topic.

"Well, it is quite possible that the Japanese were very ambitious, and the occupation of Kamchatka just laid down a springboard for them to plot several places around. The young man agreed.

"Yes, once Kamchatka falls into the hands of the Japanese people, the Japanese people will definitely carry out large-scale migration to Kamchatka, and strive to control the entire Kamchatka Island in the shortest possible time. Controlling Kamchatka, the next target of the Japanese people must be the Ryukyu Islands, once the Ryukyu Islands are lost, the initiative of the Great East Ocean will completely fall into the hands of the Japanese people, and the fall of the Cook Islands and Treasure Island will also be a matter of time, and the timing chosen by the Japanese people is also painstaking, the head of the Tachihara family, Tachihara Yamakawa, has been watching the changes in the situation on the mainland, which can be said to be deliberate, and he also saw that the situation in the empire was unstable at this time and there was not much power to interfere with them. The man in the green shirt was full of sadness in his tone, this is what made him feel distressed, seeing that the invasion of the Japanese was imminent, but the major affairs of his own master were also unstoppable, which was more important?
