Zhao Shengrui has been in a terrible mood these days, it stands to reason that there are more than 100 territories, coupled with the huge scope and population of the royal capital, and the annual tax is not low.

But in fact, it is more limited than auspiciousness.

On the one hand, the rights of each territory are too large, and everyone is a local emperor, and it has become a necessary skill to deceive the superiors and subordinates, and they can't pick out a few taels of gold.

At the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China, this mode of sub-feuding was okay, but as time went by, the lords from all over the country who were used to enjoying the blessings were willing to hand over the rights in their hands, so they all became stubborn diseases on the body of Daxia, and dug the corners of Daxia as much as possible to strengthen themselves.

On the other hand, the industry is also big.

Hu Yue in the north needs to be guarded against, and the auspiciousness in the south does not dare to take it lightly.

In addition, in recent years, following the auspicious footsteps of investment everywhere, the stalls are getting bigger and bigger, even if the rule of the officials has changed recently, but it is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice, and she has become more and more inadequate.

No, Zhao Shengrui, who was thinking about it, had to pay attention to Wang Yue, and the recent business of fireworks has been booming.

Sadly, Wang Yue sent him away with a word of money in auspiciousness.

After returning to the palace, Zhao Shengrui smashed precious porcelain, glass, mirrors, perfumes, bottles, etc., and went crazy alone.

Seeing such a scene, Gao Jin felt bitter in his heart.

He is a middle-aged man with ideals and ambitions.

Zhao Shengrui is ambitious, capable, and the most important thing is that he is ruthless enough, and even his younger brother can do it, which is in line with his expectations.

I thought that this combination of monarchs and ministers, who were highly complementary and full of tacit understanding, could clear the internal obstacles within five years and develop Great Xia into the most powerful existence in the entire continent within ten years.

Who would have thought that the plan could not catch up with the changes, and the smoky miasma in the remote corner of the south would also have a genius.

At first, it was fine, as long as it was destroyed before it became a success.

But the bad thing is that they underestimated the young lord's ability, not only did they fight with him before the matter became clear, and Chiyan bullied him wantonly, but also failed to do their best to destroy the other party with all their might, so that he could continue to grow stronger in the face of adversity.

To tell the truth, Gao Jin admires Wang Xuan, admires him from the bottom of his heart, and appreciates him more than he appreciated Zhao Shengrui at the beginning.

He has deduced countless times, and it would be impossible for Zhao Shengrui, who is assisted by him, to be auspicious, and reach such a height.

In other words, this matter can only be attributed to the fact that God took a nap at this time for a thousand years, and then the auspicious kid happened to take advantage of this loophole.

He has repented of his mistakes, if he can do his best to destroy auspiciousness, who else is the opponent in this world?

Hu Yue?

If there is no auspiciousness in the south to form a north-south attack, why did Great Xia fall into such a passive situation.

Being in a land with abundant rain, abundant products, and a suitable climate, after accumulating a few years of strength, it is not impossible to counterattack and advance northward.

You must know that Hu Yue's geographical environment is not half a star worse than that of Great Xia, and the only thing that can be said is the cavalry.

It's no wonder that Daxia has shed too much blood on Jixiang, and more and more manpower and material resources have been consumed on the southern front, and he is no longer able to look north, so Hu Yue can jump so happily.

The young king who couldn't rub the sand in his eyes, how could he swallow the resentment given by Great Xia, especially after his wings were growing and he was dominating the Southern Continent.

No, after marrying Hu Yue in the north last year, he secretly contacted Hu Yue and squeezed Daxia from the north to the south.

Don't think that Ji Xiang has secretly cultivated several batches of talents for Hu Yue to hide from Daxia's ears and eyes.

The transaction, except for the more secret details, is already known to the world.

Zhao Shengrui, who also has a good face, still refuses to bow his head and admits his mistake to his nominal brother-in-law, and Liang Zi can only get bigger and bigger.

This is also just it, if the bright one doesn't work, the dark one will come, everyone in the world knows that the auspicious king is the most affectionate, as long as the moon concubine is coaxed, how can auspiciousness still have such an attitude?

But the once wise King of Great Xia personally cut off the only way to retreat, and Great Xia had to go into battle shirtless and endure the pain of being flanked by two lines.

Now King Jixiang has started his journey of defeat again, although it is unlikely that he will fail, Gao Jin still feels that there will be a chance.

It's just that although Zhao Shengrui is also working hard, he has lost the ambition he had when he ascended the throne.

The king of the small country in the south put too much pressure on him, and perhaps the king of Great Xia had already lost on the spiritual level.

It's really more than goods to be thrown, and people are more damned than people.

Glancing at Zhao Shengrui again, Gao Jin shook his head and left the palace and returned to the mansion, the situation was getting more and more blurred.

Today's Great Xia is just like the original auspicious, it can only be passively defensive, and if you want to counterattack, you have to wait patiently for the opportunity, waiting for the opportunity for Jixiang and Hu Yue to make mistakes.

At the end of November, not far from the eastern coastline of the Xingyao Continent, three gray-black ships, with a few broken sails, like old cattle that had been ploughing all day, panting and walking back slowly, how difficult it was.

"Head, but I'm dazzled?" said a lookout on the light mast, pointing ahead and shouting to the navigator.

"Do you dare to be distracted by a dog? Lao Tzu's bed sheets have made you tie your body, if you fall to death again, it will be Lao Tzu's turn to go up to your place, I'm afraid you won't even have to wrap a sheet." ”

The forty-year-old sailing chief, whose face was as black as coal, was tilted up, and he was speaking only by the two rows of white teeth that appeared and disappeared from time to time.

The lookout could only smile smugly, so he carefully straightened his posture, adjusted his position to what he thought was comfortable, and looked carefully to the north.

"Commander, judging from the current month and the current sun, I'm afraid it's coming!"

A staff officer behind Song Feng was barefoot, with a navy hat with two holes on his head, staring at the green ridges on the seaside, and analyzing with trembling words.

This walk is more than a year, and the ghost gate has been passed more than ten times.

When he set off, there was a whole fleet, but when he came back, there were only three supply ships left floating on the sea like ghosts, Song Feng felt that he should be the saddest commander in the history of the auspicious navy, it must be unprecedented, and the possibility of no one coming after is also very likely.

At this time, he felt the kind and wet wind unique to November auspiciousness, and he felt the urge to cry, but nearly half of the brothers never felt it.

This is an eternal pain in his heart!

"The climate is getting warmer and warmer, and it is indeed not far from home, so let the brothers sew all the cloth they can use to use as sails, so that they no longer need to drive the paddle wheel at night, and have a good rest, so that their families will not recognize them." ”

The phrase 'family doesn't recognize it' made many sailors on deck cry.

Home, although close at hand, is as far away as the end of the world.

The past love for each other, the past life and death together, how can you forget because you return home?

These words made the only remaining staff officer behind him unable to control his suppressed emotions any longer, squatting on the deck to hide his face with his hands, muddy tears rushing out of his fingers and white tear stains, and the sun on his back was very conspicuous.

Song Feng turned forward, patted the staff officer's shoulder, and said: "Accompany me to see the brothers, they all say that they are cowardly in their hometowns, but the wine jar is not a good destination after all, I am afraid that some brothers who don't like wine will be excited and it will be difficult to clean up if they overturn the jar." ”

The staff officer put down his hand, glanced at Song Feng in a daze, then wiped his hands twice on his dark pants, and a few white marks disappeared again, nodded, and took the lead towards the cabin.

The wooden door locks that had been broken into the fence were rusty, and the two of them lowered their heads and lowered their bodies through the hole, and followed the steps down to the storage room on the second floor below deck.

There is nothing here but a jar that is fixed with wooden boards.

Each jar is affixed with a small animal skin, on which is written a personal name in a special pigment, as well as a few words of life......

"Gong Yu, literate and hyphenated, a draftsman with the army, treated soldiers who fell into the water in search of food at the beginning of the third year of Central Continent, and finally froze to death"

"Gu Nian, a viper intelligence officer, died on December 31 of the second year of Zhongzhou, under the claws of a snow-white monster. ”

"Zhao Ling, a military doctor, died of poisoning due to detoxification for the wounded. ”

"Han Zu, a marine, died in a natives sneak attack. ”

"Wang Hua, a sissy, has the same name and surname as the third princess, but she really died under the poisonous flower. ”

......

The staff officer opened the window at the side of the warehouse, which had been the gun window for the spare naval guns, and the warm and humid sea breeze blew in at once.

"Brothers, do you feel the auspicious sea breeze in November? We're going home, don't be naughty, it is estimated that His Majesty the King will be waiting for us in the Bay Area, so give me the spirit of departure, whoever loses me, don't blame Lao Tzu for scolding my mother......"

"Commander?"

Song Feng couldn't say any more at this time.

He finally realized the feeling when His Majesty held the ashes of the soldiers and went door to door.

He really wanted to die by himself, at least now, and in the future, he would never face such mental torment again, he really couldn't understand how His Majesty came over in the first place.

"Commander, there is a situation. ”

When the staff officer saw the herald come in with a happy face, and he looked embarrassed and at a loss, he knew that something important must be done.

The two of them went up to the deck, and looked in the direction of a few broken sails, and a few dark shadows came into view.

"Lookout, lookout?" shouted the staff officer, tilting his head.

"Flower dog, what did my mother's counselor call you, why are you in a daze?"

The navigation grew his voice, roared out in his voice, and he was still obsessed with the scenery in the telescope, and he suddenly shuddered, and hurriedly lowered his head and replied: "Arrived." ”

"What's going on?" asked the navigator.

"Head, there's a boat, it's a big ship, bigger than ours, gray. ”

The brethren on the deck are frying, the big ship, and the gray one, who are they if they are not their own people?

Could it be?

"Is there any information from the other side?" the staff officer asked again, this is the key.

"Well, for the time being, not for the time being, the other party is just moving forward, and the speed seems to be faster than us?"

"What?"

Even Song Feng couldn't hold his breath, what are you kidding, he is a tailwind, the other party is a headwind, although there are only a few broken sails, but the sails are not, the other party is actually faster than his own speed, how is this possible?

"Wave the flag and ask the other party's identity. The staff officer said urgently.

If you are beaten at the door of your home, it is better to wipe your neck now.

The lookout tied him to the mast with a sheet at his waist, and with great courage, he half got up, waved the small flag in his hand, and repeated the flag over and over again, until his arms were numb and the distance between the two sides was within range.

"The other party still hasn't responded!"

The meaning from above made the hearts of the people on the entire deck, who were still excited, suddenly come to a standstill.

"Prepare for war!"

"Prepare for war, prepare for ......"

The heart-rending sound of 'preparing for war' came, and the sailors who came back to their senses did not forget their duties, and immediately took their places, and even in the vacant areas of some positions, there were wooden dummies fixed beside them.

While the auspicious people were preparing, the distance between the two sides was getting closer and closer, and they could see the silhouette of each other's ships without binoculars.

Song Feng thought at first that there was a change in the southern continent, and the enemy had found the Xingyao Continent along the northbound route, and was about to run aground desperately, and then make plans after going ashore, but saw that the other side Pang was also yellow-skinned and black-eyed, and the armor of the deck guns had not faded, and he immediately fell into a dilemma.

Looking at the appearance, a proper person from the Star Continent, and looking at the battleship, it is also a proper auspicious product, but it is just bigger.

Moreover, if the enemy invades the Star Continent and occupies the auspicious place, it should not be used to control the battleship.

Besides, the distance was so close, the other party had already fired his deck gun.

Such abnormal attitudes made Song Feng look forward to it.

At this time, the ocean-going supply ship had no shells available, and these naval guns were all dismantled from the battleship, and they were just showcased.

Therefore, according to Song Feng's judgment, the probability that the other party should be his own person is the majority.

So, Song Feng asked everyone to prepare for the battle on the one hand, and asked the lookout to pay attention to the other party's dynamics at any time.

Until, until the ships of both sides entered the distance of a kilometer, the opposing warships opened fire.

The staff officer and the others were startled, and stepped forward and threw Song Feng down on the mottled deck.

The cannon roared, but no shells came.

What's going on?

The staff officer wondered, looked up and looked forward, and was stunned like a wood carving.

At this time, Song Feng reflexively pressed him under him, and hurriedly shouted: "Dead, you are so squeaky, is it true that Lao Tzu has become the commander of the light pole, and he wants to send ashes to his hometown alone?"

Seeing that the commander had misunderstood, the staff officer hurriedly said: "Flag, look at the military flag!"

Song Feng also had no idea at this time, so he followed the staff's pointing and looked at the three-color five-star flag, and next to it was the blue background white dragon flag......

"Our people, our people, our people......"

The whole fleet is crazy, if three ghost-shaped ships are a fleet.

The salute just now was fired, and it was a courtesy cannon for the auspicious soldiers to welcome the triumph of the heroes.

Whether it was the commander of the fleet at the top or the sailors at the bottom, after seeing the three beggars returning to the exploration fleet, they couldn't help but straighten their bodies and salute in a proper manner.

Song Feng, who was missing half an ear, regained his mood, stood upright, and returned the salute.

"Commander Song, by order of His Majesty King Jixiang, I am here to take you home!"

"By the order of King Jixiang, take the brothers home!"

The sound resounded through the world and shocked people's hearts!

Pick up, brothers go home!
