Chapter 1568: Unexpected Situation

Chen Jisheng very deliberately emphasized the words 'active' and 'blatant', which sounds simple and easy to understand, but if you think about it, it really means a lot!

In addition, the order of 'active' and 'blatant' is also very particular, but it is not a juxtaposition.

Chen Jisheng claimed that he would never take the initiative to rebel, but what he said was conclusive and swearing, does it sound loyal and unintentional?

But don't forget that he said that he would not rebel 'actively', which means that if he is passive, he may rebel.

And the current situation is that you Da Zhou 'took the initiative' to send troops to Yanyun, so even if Yanyun rebelled, it was not active, but passive...... Nothing wrong with it, right?

As for the open rebellion and the quiet rebellion, there is also a difference, if it is a public rebellion, then Xiao Chen will inevitably establish himself as the king, and even directly ascend the throne and become the emperor!

If you just rebel in private, you Li Wanjiang will still be a monarch and minister in name, but in fact, you will already be dissatisfied with the management of your Great Zhou Dynasty, to put it bluntly, Xiao Chen will be the governor and act as a king.

But since it is not a 'blatant' rebellion, naturally you will not take the initiative to attack the Great Zhou, 'unless' you take the initiative to attack us......

Therefore, his old man's words are really clever, not only can he be retracted freely, but also suitable for advance and retreat.

Sure enough, ginger is still old and spicy.

However, the old man was sincere, and although he was very embarrassed after asking Li Toyota's intentions, after thinking about it, he still generously granted him two million taels of silver!

Of course, it will be paid in installments, 500,000 taels will be given before this year, and the rest will be delivered before next autumn.

Because there are too many places where Yanyun County uses silver now, this is also forcibly squeezed out, the old man is responding to you, but you have to fight a lawsuit with your subordinates when you turn back!

This was a surprise for Li Toyota, who thought that not only would he not be able to get anything back this time, but he might also leave his head behind, and he had already explained the aftermath to his family before he came out.

Since Mr. Chen is so interesting, he might as well get a little more inches......

"Boss, I heard that the muskets produced by your Yanyun Arsenal are all as good as the Westerners, and even stronger than theirs, our Da Zhou is very short of muskets now, and the lower official position is in the military department, and every day it will be noisy by those quartermasters, and it will not stop for a moment, so if the boss is willing to pity the difficulties of the officials, he will give some batches, but it is fine."

"Toyota doesn't know, the arsenal is really not under the jurisdiction of the old man, and this matter has to be approved by General Zhuge ...... It's okay, the old man will say hello to him, and give you a little bit to take back to pay for the errand, in addition, the cattle and sheep are also fat at this time, and they will load a boat when they turn around, so they can't let you go back empty-handed with Gong Shouli It's not good-looking. ”

"Alas......" Li Toyota was happy, but he couldn't help but sigh, for no reason.

"Why does Toyota have anything to say? But it doesn't hurt to talk about it. Chen Jisheng said.

"I can't say anything, it's been taken care of by the old man...... The lower officials can't repay it, so kowtow to the boss. Li Fengtian knelt down and kowtowed to Chen Jisheng three times to express his gratitude.

"Toyota doesn't have to be polite, since you're here, let's stay for a few more days, Yanyun is a place, it's too hot in summer and too cold in winter, so it's ......better at this time," Chen Jisheng ended the conversation.

Li Fengtian also wants to stay for a few more days, he really likes Yanyun County too much, the last time he came to patronize and ask Xiao Chen about the crime, he stayed for a few days and left, there are still many places that he has not seen, this time he has to visit and see.

The most important thing I wanted to visit was the arsenal, but when I inquired, I learned that the arsenal refused to be visited by foreign guests......

The Great Zhou Bingbu Langzhong? That's not good, let alone Lord Langzhong, even if Lu Jing, the secretary of the Ministry of War, comes in person!

went to find the old man, and the old man was also very embarrassed, saying that the arsenal was really not in his charge, and it was useless for you to look for me, go to General Zhuge .

But Zhuge Xiaosheng didn't see him at all......

In desperation, I went to complain to Gong Shouli, who was recuperating from his injuries just after surgery, Gong Shouli said that such a little thing is worth worrying about?

When you find Ling'er and ask her to think of a way to take Master Li to visit your arsenal for a while, don't you say that you can't do it, don't you always brag that you are the little boss of Yanyun County?

Besides, what's not to see about a broken factory?

Why, you really make secret weapons and want to rebel!

Ling'er is really interesting and has the ability, even if she agrees, but look at it, some factories still can't do it, it's not that you can't see it, but it's too dangerous.

Last time, who was it, when Zuo Weipan, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, went to visit, didn't there be an explosion of birds?

almost crashed him to death, so he was strictly forbidden to enter the ......

But I also have to say hello to General Zhuge first, don't worry, I'll take you there when I arrange it!

What he said was good, but unexpectedly, the plan never changed quickly, on this day Li Fengtian suddenly received a letter from the Ministry of War, saying that there was a war in Yizhou, Lu Jing ordered him to immediately explain the situation to Xiao Chen, no matter what, he must persuade Xiao Chen to go back to Beijing immediately, if he refuses to go back to Fengyang, it is okay to go to Haining Bay, cut it, 100,000 urgent!

He was also shocked when he heard the news, the war in Yizhou had just ended for more than a year, why was there a war again? Did the Dongying people attack?

Can't, they just got beaten by Yanyun County, and they hurt their vitality, how dare they take the initiative to provoke a war with my Da Zhou?

That is, the remnants of Xiao Xinghan Tianxuanhui are back?

No, it's only been a year, where did he gather the soldiers and horses from the battleship!

Or is it an invasion of the southern frontier countries? That's the only way to do it.

When he hurried to the Governor's Mansion to see Xiao Chen, he didn't know how to phrase Xiao Chen when he saw him.

"Toyota got the news too?" Xiao Chen also received the news, and it was not surprising to see him iron-colored and blue, and hurriedly came to say goodbye, "Those foreign devils are really rude, they dare to invade our Yizhou from so far away, but they need to clean them up!" ”

"Lord Xiao, do you know who invaded Yizhou?" Li Toyota himself doesn't even know about it.

"I heard that there is a six-nation combined fleet from the east of the ocean, and they are all blonde and blue-eyed foreign devils...... I also just got the news, and the specific situation is not very clear, but the person who came is not good, within a few days, the ports of Windy City, Chicken Coop, and Zhilan have all fallen. Xiao Chen said.

"The Six-Nation Combined Fleet, how many people are there?" Lee was shocked.

"The exact number is not clear, but there are probably 70,000 or 80,000 people, and there are more than 300 warships! Otherwise, these ports would not have fallen so quickly. Xiao Chen said.

"That's a big!" Cold sweat immediately oozed from Li Feng's forehead, "Most of our Great Zhou Shui Division is now in Jiangdong County, Haining Bay...... During the rest, I couldn't rush through the eagerness, and in addition, the last time I fought with Yizhou, the loss of the sailor division was quite large! Lord Xiao, the enemy is on the side, you Yanyun County can't sit idly by! ”
