After the second prince left, Tang Zixian's mood was a lot better, you must know that up to now, among the three princes competing for the throne, only the second prince came to Kong Ming here three times and five times, and was received by Kong Ming, as a younger sister, of course she understood what was going on in her heart, on the other hand, the other princes were far away from Kong Ming, even if they came, Kong Ming would use the excuse of being busy with official business, and leave after saying two sentences, which was naturally seen at once.

"What is the imperial brother here for?" Tang Zixian asked in a low voice, she was just asking knowingly.

"What can he do here? It's not for you sister! Why don't you come to see me, what are you kidding? Kong Ming said, indeed, in the eyes of everyone, after the second prince came over, he had less than a few minutes of contact with Kong Ming alone, what could he say?

"What are you doing so loudly, really, I don't know how you became this general!" Tang Zixian said slightly angrily, this person didn't understand the amorous feelings at all, would two words of comfort kill people?

"Oh, it was given by your father. Pour me some juice. Kong Ming answered the question.

"Hmph, pour it yourself. After finishing speaking, Tang Zixian left.

After a while, Sima Wei hurriedly walked to the balcony and whispered in Kong Ming's ear: "The mastermind of the bastard who assassinated people in the imperial capital has been found out. ”

"Who?" Kong Ming asked in a deep voice, this has always been a thorn in his heart, no matter who is assassinated, whether it is successful or not, the days to come will always be sad, you must know that assassination is always a steady stream. If the mastermind behind it is not found out for a day, Kong Ming will prevent this kind of thing from happening again. You must know that there is only a thousand days to be a thief, and there is no reason to prevent a thief for a thousand days. So even though Kong Ming is busy now, but. But he is always concerned about this matter, and he must find out the mastermind behind this one and bring him to justice to prevent future troubles.

"He is the owner of the Demon Shark Island opposite our coastal city, since your fiefdom is opposite him, so he thinks that you should strike first, and when you haven't left the imperial capital, there are not many guards, and the protection is not strong, it is most appropriate. So he sent assassins to assassinate him. The fat man said, apparently he had done his homework as well.

"I have a little doubt, why are they able to grasp my whereabouts?" said Kong Ming Yan, this question is very strict, if it is used for writing. Then a lot of people will die in it.

"Damn, do you think it's okay to be uncertain. They're following you early in the morning. It is said that they hired someone from a killer organization to carry out the assassination, and they played professionally. And in order not to be caught, they even killed the killer. "The fat man doesn't have a good airway, and there are really few people in the emperor who know Kong Ming, but this doesn't hinder the actions of people with hearts, as long as they want to know. Even if the queen changes her underwear a few times a day, they will figure it out, let alone a person like Kong Ming who is defenseless all day long.

"And how did you figure it out?" asked Kumei, it really didn't hurt to know more.

"We had an inside story on Demon Shark Island, he said at a party. The Demon Shark Island Lord personally admitted it. The fat man put his hands down and said, I don't know if the Demon Shark Island Lord was kicked in the head by a donkey, where can such a thing be brought to the table? Even if there are only three people who know, it is already a lot, let alone say such words in front of everyone at a banquet.

"When did he say that?" Kong Ming really wanted to figure out if this was the words of their family, or the result of several families working together.

"Three days ago. The fat man replied in the affirmative.

"Find out to me how many people are involved in this. Hmph, if you want me to die, I won't make them feel better. Kong Ming said annoyedly.

"Well, we especially checked the background of the owner of the Demon Shark Island, he was originally a member of the empire, a member of the royal family of Pinghai City, due to various experiences, he finally won the approval of the Demon Shark, and let the Demon Shark take the position of the island owner, but it is said that his position is now somewhat unstable due to the slaughter of the Demon Shark. The fat man said, for every piece of information, he has always been very serious, after getting that information, he immediately learned about the situation of the entire Demon Shark Island, because he had always taken this island as the first target, so soon he got what he wanted.

"Are you saying his position as the island master is unstable?" asked Kong Ming again.

"That's right, a lot of people know about it. The fat man said.

"Well, I see. Kong Ming thought for a moment, then pressed on a button next to the table, and within a minute, I saw an officer appear next to Kong Ming, this is a staff officer on duty in the Eastern Naval District, they are waiting for Kong Ming's orders at any time, and convey them, or bring Wen Jiàn to Kong Ming. In fact, Kong Ming's office is on the next floor, facing the sea.

"Report!" the man shouted.

"Counselor Wang, call the commander of the navy to me at once. Kong Ming said.

"Yes, Commander. The man replied and immediately called. In fact, Kong Ming can also ask the fat man next to him, but some things are more professional and realistic.

So in the next time, Kong Ming and Fat Man are constantly communicating with the construction and improvement of the whole city, you must know that no matter what, Binhai City is a new city, and all aspects need to be improved and worked hard.

More than ten minutes later, the commander of the navy, Hai Xing, came to the side of the two, and after sitting down, Kong Ming asked:

"Commander, when is the most favorable time for a naval battle, what are the things that need to be paid attention to during the naval battle, and if there is a need to land, what kind of place is needed, for example, what season is the most suitable time for us to attack Demon Shark Island?" Kong Ming's series of words made the sea trip who had just sat down a little uncomfortable, you must know that Kong Ming has been focusing on training since the formation of the navy, and he actually doesn't care much about the battles that are coming, and the experience of naval battles, the two also often communicate, after all, Kong Ming, as a commander of the navy, doesn't know that these are unreasonable. But why is he bringing up all these things he knows today?

"Commander, in the midst of our East China Sea. The most favorable time to fight is winter, at that time, the sea breeze is lighter, the waves are gentle, which is conducive to the movement of warships and fighting, and if we need to land and fight, then we need to choose a harbor or a place with a certain beach, which is conducive to the disembarkation of the army, as for the attack on Demon Shark Island. When it comes to winter. "This is the most basic common sense, and any officer in the Navy knows this.

"Well, if that's the case, why is that person in a hurry to find death, or who is in a hurry for him to die sooner?" Kong Ming said strangely.

"What's wrong. Commander?" Hai Xing thought that today's Kong Ming was very strange, in order to ask this simple question. And they called him. Is there some fuss, you must know that as a naval commander, time is also very precious, not to say that he is free when he is free, and Kong Ming is called coming over without prior notice. There really are some that can't be said.

"There's a guy who's desperate for death, and there's a chance to take over Demon Shark Island, and I'm thinking about what to do. Oh, the castle lord and the sea general explain. Kong Ming said. After saying that, he fell into deep thought.

The fat man explained in the simplest words to Haixing, and at this time, Haixing knew the reason why Kong Ming called him. But what does this have to do with the seizure of Demon Shark Island?

Haixing couldn't help but ask.

"Someone figured out a sentence like guò, revealing two meanings to us, the first is that there is no unity in Demon Shark Island, some people want us to go over and take over this island, the second is that some people want to kill people, so that the assassination of the commander will sink to the bottom of the sea forever and will not be discovered again, and the third is that some people want the commander to stay away from the battle for the throne in the imperial capital and not interfere in it. The fat man explained to the sea traveler that this kind of thing must be experienced several times before he can realize the true meaning of it, otherwise he will not know how to die if he is killed. And when Kong Ming was in the Chu State, he was intertwined with battle and betrayal all day long, so he was quite familiar with this kind of thing. He caught the meaning of it at the first time, and the sea trip was only known after the fat man reminded him. This is the difference in experience, and it is not something that can be known by age or reading a lot.

"In other words, some people want us to occupy Demon Shark Island now, and they want to kill the owner of Demon Shark Island in this chaotic process, so that the assassination of the commander will disappear forever. Hai Xing asked, such speculation is everyone's mind.

"There's nothing wrong with that. But there may also be things in it that we don't know about. Kong Ming interjected, this thing was too weird, and it came so suddenly.

"What kind of person is that thinking about the death of the people on Demon Shark Island?" asked Hai Xing, sometimes it is good to communicate with others, and their questions can always be straight to the center of the matter.

"There are not a few people who want them to die, such as their opponents for many years, such as those who are jealous of their wealth, such as those who want to bury things, in short, there are many reasons, but the result is only one thing, that is, someone wants them to die, and they use the knife in our hands to kill them, that is, to kill them with a knife. The fat man said on the side. It's hard to explain.

"Could it be that they are coming to attract the king?" Hai Xing asked, which is also one of the reasons, at this stage, the sea in the East China Sea has not been trained, and the training time is too short, so the combat effectiveness is not strong, and once the first battle is frustrated, then the future wars will have a certain shadow, which will bring many negative effects to the army, so all the generals in the past generations will be cautious about the first battle, just because the impact of the first war on the future is too great. The first victor can be as imposing as a rainbow, and the first defeated is low in momentum, and it is easy to overestimate the enemy and underestimate himself.

"In any case, we will take two steps, the first step is to speed up the training of the army at sea, and start the corresponding voyage training at sea, and the marines will also carry out appropriate training with you, remember not to go beyond the center line, stay away from the other side, to avoid being attacked by the enemy, at the same time, draw a map of the island of Demon Shark Island, mark all the areas that can be used for landing and ports to enter, so that all personnel can be familiar with these terrains, make preparations for war, and investigate the weather for the latest period of time; on the other hand, strengthen the reconnaissance of Demon Shark Island to see what the facts are。 We should not do it until a qiē is clear. Cautious first battle. Kong Ming said.

So under the arrangement of Kong Ming. Primorsky City was lively all at once, and everyone knew that the first battle of the East China Sea Navy was not far off. On the streets, all kinds of weapons, all kinds of armor, all kinds of military supplies were taken off at once. The streets and alleys of the coast are talking about when to attack Demon Shark Island and when to go to that place for a walk, you know, even if the two places are so close, but the communication between them is only a handful.

In the palace, the emperor and his ministers were discussing some state affairs, but at this time. One of the chamberlains took a crystal to his side and whispered a few words, and while everyone was unaware of it, the emperor had the crystal placed on the ground, and a simple incantation came out of his mouth. Then I saw the figure of Kong Ming appear in front of everyone, which is a tool of magical images. Sound and image can be transmitted in real time.

"The commander of the East China Sea of the Empire, Kong Ming, pays a visit to His Majesty. Kong Ming said. There is also a crystal in front of him, and in front of him is the figure of the emperor and the minister.

"Oh, Your Excellency, are you in a hurry?" said the Emperor with a smile, he had an indescribable feeling about Kong Ming's cheap son-in-law. Every time this son-in-law brought him too much pleasure, and of course more money and fame.

"Your Majesty, today I received a piece of information, there is information to show it. The Demon Shark Island opposite our Marina City is now in civil unrest, and it is a good time to take the Demon Shark Island, so I myself would like to ask His Majesty Xià to allow us to send troops. Kong Ming said that every general who leads troops to fight is inevitably to get the emperor's order, because this itself is a legal procedure, if there is no such procedure, then even if the battle is won, then the emperor and the ministers of the court will not be happy, because the army is a state, not an individual, once an army only obeys the orders of one person, and that person is not the emperor, then it is not too far from civil strife.

"Are you sure you want to send troops?" the emperor felt the suddenness of the matter, you must know that to conduct a war, it is a long-term thing, not a whim, you must know that the whole war is a huge project, every item is indispensable, otherwise, once the army is not good, it will affect many things.

"Your Majesty, our initial plan to send troops to capture Demon Shark Island is based on the fact that the shape of the island is beneficial to us, and it is only a matter of time to take it, we are paying close attention to the shape of the island, if necessary, immediately send troops to occupy it, and now because the shape of the island is conducive to our intention to occupy, it is already an inevitable to send troops, although this will affect our advance plan, but it can speed up the time for us to occupy the sixteen islands. "These are all military terms, and this also makes all the non-military ministers present look half-incomprehensible.

"How sure are you that island?" the emperor asked, making all the ministers laugh, for it was strange that an emperor did not know where he was about to attack.

"Demon Shark Island, Your Majesty, we have ten layers of certainty to occupy Demon Shark Island. Kong Ming replied, his voice full of determination.

"Why do you say that there are ten layers of certainty?" said the Emperor in surprise, knowing that no one would be 100% sure about war. But he suddenly reacted.

"Okay, Your Excellency General, as the emperor of the Huayuan Empire, I authorize you to carry out this war, not only on Demon Shark Island, but on the Sixteen Islands. The Emperor said.

"Your Majesty is wise. The ministers all said.

"Your Majesty is wise. Kong Ming also said.

At this moment, the empire's war system also began to start, and the military ministers did not expect the war to come so quickly, they always thought that it would be a little later, and they would not go to war until the navy was completely familiar with it and had formed its combat effectiveness. But apparently they forgot one thing, and that was that Kong Ming himself was a man who fed war with war, and no one was ready for them, and neither were their enemies.

A castle by the sea.

At this time, a limited number of high-level officials in the Eastern Naval Region of the Kongming Belt were discussing this war.

"Brothers, just now, His Majesty the Emperor has issued an order granting us the right to go to war, and the war is about to begin, and we will all spend a long time in this kind of scene. Kong Ming said, at this time he also had some excitement, of course, the army of millions is not said to move, but there must be a process, as the saying goes, the soldiers and horses go first before the grain and grass are moved.

"Commander, isn't there something too hasty in this? Li Feizhi, chief of staff of the Eastern Naval Region, said. Li Feizhi looks like an old man in his sixties, but his actual age is more than two hundred years old, he is a sword saint, and he has rich experience in warfare. In fact, the most important point is that he is Li Feiyang's younger brother.

"Is there something wrong with this?" asked Sima Wei, the intelligence director of the city lord and staff department.

"Commander, we need to prepare a lot of food and medicine, otherwise once the war starts, it will be difficult to receive these things, and at that time, these things will inevitably be much more expensive. Logistics Minister Tang Xiang said.

Then the naval commander went to sea, and the commander of the Marine Army, Lu Zhongyi, also spoke out one after another about their respective preparations.

In this way, a huge war began in the unintentional consciousness of some people, and under the planning of some well-intentioned people.

Back above the castle, where Kumei's family lived.

"I heard that you're about to go to war?" Tang Zixian helped Kong Ming take off his coat and then asked.

"Hehe, we're just going with the flow. Kong Ming smiled.

"It's strange to believe you, you must know that you have only been preparing for more than three months, and this time it is just a smooth sailing. Tang Zixian said.

"Oh, how do you know?" asked Ku Ming curiously.

"Now it's all over the street, and it's hard to argue whether it's true or not, but it seems that there are a lot of mercenaries who have begun to form groups, saying that they want to follow up behind the regular army to explore. Tang Zixian said with a smile.

"Hehe, the days to come will be lively. Kong Ming sighed, it seems that no one is a fool.

The Lord's Mansion of Demon Shark Island.

"Island master, our plan has worked, Gu said that the emperor of the Huayuan Empire has given Kong Ming an order to attack our island in the near future. A sage said to the owner of Demon Shark Island. (To be continued......)
