The front army had already left the port, and the ships of the rear army were all in the west, and the port of Dongtou was occupied by the Chinese army's fleet. When the chamberlain came to the harbor and was invited to watch the big ship, he kept greeting the soldiers, and when he circled the deck, he saw that the officer beside him was gone, and he thought to himself: 'When I am leaving, Your Majesty does not know what he threw at me, so it is better to look at it at this time.' Then he pretended to rest for a while, stepped down from the inner cabin, and entered an unmanned room.

He shook his sleeves a few times, and out of it fell out a palm-sized piece of paper, with tear marks on it, and clearly wrote in a red pen: "There is a temporary change in Dayue, so that the order of the middle and rear armies is reversed, and the first and rear armies can be ordered to go out of the ship." There is also a square seal under the letter.

The chamberlain hurriedly hid the imperial book and gasped - after all, this matter was not allowed by Zhang Longlu. He calmed down for a while, and went out of the hatch in fear, looked at the sun, and asked the soldiers, "What time is it?" ”

The soldier looked at the Chen card and said, "Father-in-law, it's a quarter of noon." The former army has already gone out. ”

"Don't be too busy keeping up, Your Majesty has a new order," the chamberlain casually took out the emperor's imperial pen and handed, pointed to the seal and said, "Quickly inform the people of the rear army and discuss the matter of the transfer!" ”

The soldiers were skeptical, but they knew that the emperor was with Governor Zhang, so they didn't dare to contradict it, and hurriedly asked the chief to deal with the matter. The ranks of the former army were already floating in the middle of the sea, flags were raised, and the trumpets began to sound for a long time.

The Emperor put on his yellow robe again, and his feet slammed heavily on the wooden platform, causing a creaking sound. He looked down at the sea and saw more than a dozen large boats running side by side, with many scattered small boats between the two wings, intermittently connected together, quite overwhelming.

Suddenly, the guns and stones were all fired, the fire was shining, and the waves on the water in the distance suddenly splashed a foot high, forming a water curtain, which won the unanimous applause of the ministers: "Okay! All right! Our artillery can be so powerful! ”

The emperor also took advantage of the excitement and said: "Thanks to the diligent training of the soldiers, we have the demeanor of our country today!" Quickly order the battalions to hoist the yellow flags high, so that the sergeants on the ship can see it, as a sign of my heart! ”

"Do you want to hang other peaks too?" Zhang Longlu asked cautiously.

"Yes, wherever you are camped, you have to hang the flag!"

Seeing that the taciturn emperor was unusual, Zhang Longlu couldn't help but have a little doubt and arched his hands still.

"Governor Zhang, go and carry out your orders!" Liu Zhennian glanced at the emperor unnaturally, and then at Zhang Longlu.

"Yes, yes......" Zhang Longlu didn't dare to hesitate any longer, turned around and went down the mountain.

"Tell all battalions to hang the dragon flag of the Son of Heaven, even the Ye Bing Department!" Panting, he descended the steps and ordered to the lieutenant.

"What's wrong?"

"This is Your Majesty's message, the devil knows what's wrong!" Zhang Longlu paced twice, "I'm not afraid of anything else, that is, once this dragon flag is hung, it represents the royal authority and cannot be blasphemed." If the sailors see it and dare not use artillery, will it not make the conspiracy come to naught? Hurry down the mountain and explain it to them! ”

The adjutant general persuaded: "No. The Great Reading has begun, and if the troops are sent down again, Liu Lao Thief will definitely be suspicious. ”

"It's also ......" Zhang Longlu gritted his teeth, "I can only hope that the rear army responsible for the murder of the willow thief can be ruthless and the muzzle of the cannon is on point!" ”

"The rear army has to wait for Shen Shi to leave the ship, the time is long, and the adults still need to wait patiently, so they must not be impatient." The adjutant general persuaded again.

"Well, that's right." Zhang Longlu let out a sullen breath, "In addition, for the sake of insurance, those Liu Dang under the mountain do not need to be in a hurry to kill, after hearing the sound of the cannon in the east, they will be tied up first, and after I announce the holy decree, they will all be punished." ”

"Understood!" The adjutant general also took the order.

During this time, the emperor watched the parade intently. The fleet changed a lot of formations, practiced a lot of tactics, east or west, south or north, and after tossing and turning, the formation gradually dispersed.

"How?" Liu Zhennian obviously noticed that something was wrong, "Fang is still decent, and now it is not formed...... How long have you been practicing? ”

Zhang Longlu's palms were full of sweat, and he replied in fear: "The subordinate officials are diligent and responsible to the generals, and they have tried to read the law repeatedly, but they have not been neglected for a day. ”

At this time, the rear army had already left the team in advance, and was slowly moving closer to the position of the front army, and the emperor hurriedly said: "This is a trivial matter, don't argue with the others." The Chinese army has arrived, so let's keep watching. ”

At this time, Shen actually saw that the emperor had been standing for a long time, so he lifted a chair to the stage and asked His Majesty the Emperor to sit, but the latter said: "Although I have some difficulty standing, if I sit down, won't it obstruct my vision?" I wonder if there is a place a little closer to this Zhu Gao Mountain? ”

"Yes. The eastern mountain peaks are. Shen actually stretched out his finger and pointed out, which made Zhang Longlu tremble.

"Yes," the emperor nodded, "but first tell the little eunuch to move the things, and I will move them." ”

Zhang Longlu calculated that it was not time to apply, and it would be okay to ask him to come back in a while. Then he said: "Weichen will make people move Luan Yu and move Dongfeng." ”

There were two little eunuchs here, carrying Luan Yu across the suspension bridge, going down the stone steps, walking a long way, and finally entering the camp of the East Peak.

It was very close to the harbor, and the two little eunuchs put down their chairs and observed the scenery with great interest. The clouds crept in out of nowhere, and without a roar, slowly accumulated above their heads; The latter was completely unaware, the vast sea still seemed clear and blue, and the waves were still jumping and lapping against the surface of the big ship.

Suddenly, they were surprised to find that one of the ships had turned its bow strangely. Gradually, the mast turned; Gradually, the bow turned; Eventually, the black hole's muzzle was aimed at them.

Hiss –

The cannon didn't move, but the sound of the flames bursting out became louder and louder, until the sound of splitting the bamboo and cracking the silk almost pierced the sky!

Rumble!

The cannonball was impartial, and it hit the camp, blowing up a pool of blood mist, blowing everything on the flat ground into powder, the dragon flag was blown away, and the fence of the camp became dilapidated, and fell horizontally and vertically.

"Don't move!"

Ye Yongjia was playing chess in the house, and when he heard a few shouts, many soldiers came in from outside the camp, each holding swords, guns, swords, and halberds, blocking the door.

When Cai Xianqing saw it, he flipped the chessboard over and fell to the ground and broke it in half. "We're going to die, there's nothing to be afraid of, just do it!" Everyone turned to stare at Ye Yongjia.

Ye Yongjia didn't speak, he just lowered his head and picked up a white seed and threw it into the pot.

"You, speak!"

"I'm waiting for your master to get it!" He glared at the crowd, his eyes bloodshot.
