Liu Yu refused Ye Yunyang's request to go to sea in person, and he was very relieved, and finally won back the city.

Besides, even if he doesn't kill the ** dragon, he will have to end up with dismissal and abolishing his cultivation, and a martial artist who has lost his Xuan power is no different from dead.

The most important thing is that **Long is causing trouble all day long, it was he who provoked the inspector first, which led to such serious consequences, he should have been responsible for this matter, and he should have died.

However, it is not difficult to judge from the performance of Ye Yunyang and Chen Shilai just now, they are really angry, after all, they are patrol envoys, and they are at the top of the official university, and they have given themselves a dismount in Wanghai Town, so that they are not happy, and they can have good fruits to eat?

After calming down, he felt that there was something wrong with what he did just now, although he insisted on doing business, and he couldn't find anything wrong with this point, but no matter what, it was a refutation of Ye Yunyang's face, in case they held a grudge, they were bound to wear their whole little shoes.

No, we have to find out if they are angry or not, and what they plan to do when they go back.

He beckoned to the soldiers beside him and explained, "You immediately go to the big tent to eavesdrop, and listen to what the master and servant surnamed Ye have to say." ”

Xiao Bing's eyes widened: "People have Jindan Realm martial artists accompanying them for protection, if I eavesdrop, I will definitely be discovered." ”

"What are you afraid of, the master of the Jindan Realm is not in the camp at all, how could he find out that you are eavesdropping?" he widened his eyes and said: "Even if you are caught, what can you do, you can get out with a random reason, if you can't even do this, don't follow me, roll up and roll out." ”

The little soldier took a deep breath: "The humble duty is over." ”

A minute later, he crept behind the tent and put his ear to the tent to eavesdrop on the voices inside.

The first thing he heard was Chen Shilai's voice: "The surname Liu is too much, he actually refused your request to go to sea, he really thinks that he is a character, if you hadn't let him live in Wanghai Town, he would have been dead in two places." It would be bold to dare not listen to your orders now. Childe, if you want me to say, you can send the news back to the imperial capital now, saying that the person surnamed Liu is not cooperative, and we have no choice. ”

Then there was Ye Yunyang's voice, he said: "Before the trip, Your Majesty made a special explanation, and you can't reveal the true purpose of this trip, isn't it embarrassing for us? ”

The little soldier frowned, he couldn't understand what the two meant, and continued to listen close to his ear.

Then came Chen Shilai's complaint, saying: "Your Majesty is really, how can you think of killing a few pirates at the Midyear Festival ceremony, is there any point?"

"Of course there is, and it is of great significance, killing prisoners and sacrificing to heaven at the sacrificial ceremony can not only play a deterrent role, but also increase the cohesion of the Han people, and can also win a reputation similar to that of the overlord and the hero for His Majesty, of course. Ye Yunyang swore and said.

Chen Shilai asked: "Since it is so important, just give an order to the coast guard and let them go to sea to catch a few pirates, why bother sending us over, and can't explain the situation to Liu Yu, why is this?"

Ye Yunyang smiled: "This is the most wise thing about Your Majesty, if you give a direct order, it will be known to the world, if the fleet loses to pirates after going to sea, wouldn't it be a waste of rice to steal chickens! ”

"Oh, I see, so Your Majesty quietly sent us over, and if we can catch the pirates, we can use them to sacrifice to the heavens. It doesn't matter if you can't catch it, it's a big deal not to do this item during the sacrifice, and even if the garrison goes to sea and loses the battle, it won't affect His Majesty's prestige, because the matter of losing the battle has nothing to do with him, right?"

"Clever!"

Chen Shilai said with a smile: "No wonder you are not angry, Liu Yu is really a fool, it is a very faceless thing to sacrifice a prisoner for the emperor, he actually pushed it away, a fool who doesn't know how to grasp the opportunity." If it were me, I would have personally led my troops to fight pirates, and captured a large number of captives and returned them to your majesty, and as soon as your majesty was happy, the opportunity to be promoted and make a fortune would come. ”

Ye Yunyang said with a straight face: "It's normal for people to refuse, you have also seen that the combat capacity of the garrison is limited, it is simply a bunch of cowards, plus the factor of bad wind direction, going to sea will definitely be defeated." It doesn't matter, we will use Liu Yu's original words to reply to Your Majesty, and we will definitely be able to pass the test smoothly. ”

"That's right, even if Your Majesty is angry, he is angry that Liu Yu is incompetent, he missed this good opportunity, and left a bad impression in the emperor's heart, and he will never think about the possibility of promotion in his life. ”

There was an inconspicuous rustling sound outside the tent, and the master and servant looked at each other and smiled at the same time.

Clearly, the fish has taken the bait.

A few minutes later, Liu Yu got up and was shocked: "So that's the case, I said, why did the emperor suddenly send an inspector over, are you sure they said this?"

The soldier swore a promise: "Not a word will be wrong, I promise." ”

Liu Yu ignored the fact that his injuries had not healed, stood up and walked back and forth, and said: "That's right, just now I asked the reason for going to sea, but they just refused to say, it turned out that they were afraid of revealing secrets." No, this is a good opportunity for the meritorious service to be awarded, and it must not just slip away from the eyes. ”

It's not hard to catch a few pirates, and he's pretty sure of it.

Xiao Bing frowned and said, "You and the patrol envoy are so unpleasant in Wanghai Town, people will definitely not remind you." ”

Liu Yu smiled: "You go to the big tent of the Chinese army immediately, and you will say that the general promised to organize a fleet to go to sea immediately." ”

"Huh?" Xiao Bing's eyes widened, just now he told people that it was dangerous to go to sea, and he changed his mind in the blink of an eye, what is the difference between pulling out the and sitting back?

"Ahh He swore by it.

"Obey!" Xiao Bing turned away with a reluctant face, he was very ashamed of Liu Yu's character of going back on his word and getting fat.

Hahaha......

The big tent of the Chinese army made a hearty whisper, Ye Yunyang and Chen Shilai glanced at each other, it was just a small skill of carving insects, and it was easy to turn around Liu Yu's deception, and it was easy to get him.

Xiao Bing didn't know why the two of them were laughing, and stood aside with a smiling face, slightly embarrassed.

Ye Yunyang turned his head to him and said, "Go and prepare, come and inform you when you are ready, let's go to sea as soon as possible." ”

At four o'clock in the afternoon, thirty large ships left the harbor one after another, and several smaller boats two or three feet long left first.

Standing on the flagship, Ye Yunyang asked puzzledly: "General Liu, why did those small boats take the first step?"

Liu Yu explained: "The situation at sea is complicated, and their task is to detect the enemy's situation, and they are the pathfinders of the fleet, and if they encounter a situation, they will immediately send a signal to us." ”

Ye Yunyang nodded, it turned out to be the case, he asked again: "What if they encounter pirates, such a small ship has limited combat effectiveness, wouldn't it be eaten by pirates?"

Liu Yu smiled: "No, it is precisely because the ship is small, so it is more flexible and can escape before the pirates catch up." Besides, with our large army in the rear, the pirates have to flee from the wind, so how dare they chase the reconnaissance ship. ”

This explanation sounded very reasonable, but Ye Yunyang felt more and more that a new type of sea ship should be built, and after having the ability to take off and land flying wings, he could let flying wings carry out reconnaissance missions, instead of sending reconnaissance ships out.

Thirty ships lined up in two rows and sailed towards the pirates' area of activity.

The setting sun took away the last shimmer of light, the sea was plunged into darkness, the ships were brightly lit, and all the ships sailed according to the lights on the flagship.

Since it was a night voyage, the speed of the ship was even lower than during the day, and the soldiers on the flagship used the compass and nautical charts to correct the course, even at night, to ensure that the ship was on the correct course.

Ye Yunyang took Chen Shilai on another boat, as well as Zheng Zhiyuan.

The master of the Golden Body Realm is very powerful, but he can't fly around in the sky for a long time, when he is on land, he can find a place to rest at will, there is nothing on the sea that can be used to borrow power, so there is no need for Ye Yunyang to explain it at all, Zheng Zhiyuan obediently appeared on the ship.

Chen Shilai glanced at the flagship and said, "The Yiyi surnamed Liu wants to catch pirates, so he shouldn't play any tricks, right?"

Ye Yunyang said with a smile: "With Senior Zheng's nephew here, what tricks can he play? That guy wants to make meritorious contributions, he will definitely choose an area where pirates are more frequent, and then we can see the opportunity to do things and get the opportunity to negotiate with pirates directly." ”

Chen Shilai nodded, but there was a hint of doubt in his eyes.

Ye Yunyang saw it and asked, "What are you worried about?"

"I don't know. Chen Shilai shook his head and said: "I always feel that Liu Yu's trip is not only to capture prisoners, but before the fleet set sail, he sent more than a dozen reconnaissance ships in one go, which is very strange." ”

Ye Yunyang frowned, of course the more reconnaissance ships the merrier, what's so strange about this?

Chen Shilai said in a word: "Other reconnaissance ships will be about ten miles away from the main fleet, and they will send back some news from time to time, but a few of them have never appeared since they set off, where have they gone?"

The communication between the reconnaissance ship and the flagship, using flags during the day and lights at night, was very backward but straightforward.

Ye Yunyang guessed: "Maybe it's to carry out a farther reconnaissance mission, it is impossible for the fleet to only set the realm within ten miles." I'm glad you can observe so carefully, let's keep an eye on it, there shouldn't be a problem. ”

Chen Shilai nodded, Zheng Zhiyuan looked into the distance, but even if he was a martial arts master, he couldn't see far in the night.

The hull of the ship swayed rhythmically from side to side with the sea, heading for the inky open sea.
