Chapter 563: Radical General
"General, don't worry, it's not what you think. I, Brother Qi, have a way to get you out. General Park explained
At this time, the jailer came over and opened the door, and nodded to General Pu.
"Brother Qi, you go in first, I'll go out and give you the wind. General Park glanced at Qi Chu deeply.
"Rest assured. Qi Chu whispered.
General Park was really relieved when he heard this. In getting along with Qi Chu these days, he knows too well what kind of person Qi Chu is and what kind of strength he has. So Qi Chu said to reassure him, and he was relieved.
The temperature in the cell is not low, and you don't feel the cold. Sunlight shone in from the small window above, and Qi Chu stood in front of Yi Sunsin and nodded.
Li Sunsin returned the salute and led Qi Chu to sit down, "Brother Qi, I didn't say some things in front of General Park. ”
It seems that Yi Sunsin is very concerned about General Park's face, and Qi Chu said: "If the general has anything to say, just say it." ”
Li Sunsin nodded, thought for a while, and said, "I won't bother Brother Lao Qi about saving me out." ”
Looking at Yi Sunsin's appearance, Qi Chu thought that he should be worried that he would affect himself. Indeed, how can the crime of treason be easily rescued? However, since he promised General Park, Qi Chu must do his best.
Qi Chu said with a smile: "It is said that the general cares about the people of the country, but I think the general has no country in his heart, let alone the people." ”
This was very rude, and if it weren't for Yi Sunsin's broad-mindedness, he would have scolded him by now. Li Sunsin frowned, stared at Qi Chu, his face sank, and said, "Why do you say that about me?"
He had great military achievements, and he was wronged by the monarch for rebellion, and even this did not make him as angry as he is now. Qi Chu's words really stung him.
"Obviously, the general is used to staying in the prison, and he has no fighting spirit, I can get you out, but you refuse in every way. If the general is concerned about the country and the people in his heart, how can he be like this?" Qi Chu raised his eyebrows, and at the same time provoked, he used the method of agitation to make Li Sunsin accept him.
"I don't have the fighting spirit?" Yi Sunsin was dressed roughly, his shoulders trembled slightly, and he gritted his teeth, it seemed that his patience was limited.
Qi Chu knew that his method had worked, and continued: "Isn't it? Now that the Japanese have attacked near Seoul, the Ming Dynasty coalition forces can no longer stop their attack. General Park said that the general has the ability to turn the tide, so please let me rescue you. But you'd rather be a shrunken turtle in a prison than go out and fight the Japanese to the death. Is this a fighting spirit?"
When Yi Sunsin heard that the Japanese had attacked the vicinity of Seoul, he stood up excitedly, "When did the Japanese arrive in Seoul?"
Qi Chu said indifferently: "General, don't worry, this is not a big deal, anyway, North Korea will fall sooner or later." Sooner or later, the people will be trampled on and insulted by the pirates, and if you don't want to go out, why should you care about these things?"
Yi Sunsin was so excited by him that he was speechless for a while.
Qi Chu said again: "Hey, it's a pity, in order to beg me to save you, General Park just knelt down for me outside and kowtowed, it was really in vain for him to work hard." ”
Yi Sunsin knew General Park better than Qi Chu, and they once fought side by side. When he was living and dying on the battlefield, General Park never bowed his head, and he couldn't imagine that he would kneel down for others in order to save himself. This kindness touched him for a while.
"Can you really get me out?" asked Yi Sunsin
At this time, Qi Chu instead stood up and walked outside the cell, saying as he walked: "I don't want to save a person who has no fighting spirit to get out, even if you go out and face the onslaught of the Japanese invaders, there is nothing you can do." ”
"Stop!" Yi Sun-sin almost roared.
Qi Chu turned his back to him, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said in his heart that it seemed that he had taken the bait.
"If the general thinks what I said is wrong, then I will not apologize. "The Flowing Light Boy added fuel and vinegar, fanned the flames, and was not afraid of big things, the purpose was to make Yi Sunsin himself say that he wanted to go out from here.
"You say I don't have fighting spirit, and I don't know how to resist the onslaught of the Japanese invaders, so come and see!" Yi Sunsin stepped forward and grabbed Qi Chu's arm, with great force. Now he is not only angry, but also agitated.
Qi Chu was pulled by him to the side of the stone bed, and Yi Sunsin tore off the cotton mattress, revealing many paintings carved with stones on the stone bed.
Qi Chu looked at it intently, only to see that it was a diagram of the structure of a warship. He had never seen such a warship, and he thought that it must have been invented by Yi Sunsin. After taking a closer look, Qi Chu found that the warship, which was finally built from a series of structural drawings, had been wrapped in iron sheets on the lower hull, and the upper part seemed to be made of a warship upside down, with thick iron spikes on the outside and a dragon head in front. In this way, the upper and lower hulls guarded the warriors in the warship, and the enemy's arrows could not hurt anyone at all.
"The general's design?" Qi Chu was impressed by Yi Sunsin.
Yi Sunsin raised his eyebrows and said, "I have been concerned about the war outside in prison these days. The Japanese navy is strong, and if you want to defeat them, you can't use the old warships. So I designed new ships. ”
Qi Chu nodded, "It seems that General Park is right, as long as you are rescued, the current situation will definitely change." ”
Yi Sunsin continued: "These warships are called turtle ships, and they are tightly guarded from top to bottom, and neither arrows nor cannonballs can hurt the warships. In addition, the iron spike above can instantly sink the Japanese warship when it collides with it. There is a cannon hidden in the dragon head in the front, and there are some small windows in the upper part that can be used for bird guns and arrows. It's a nightmare for the Wakos. ”
As soon as Qi Chu heard him, he discovered the many advantages of the turtle boat. If such a ship is produced and put into battle, one warship can defeat ten of the Japanese Invaders. Even if there is no artillery, rushing into the Japanese warship like this, there must be a wail everywhere it passes.
"How is it? Still saying that I don't have fighting spirit?" asked Yi Sunsin rhetorically
Qi Chu smiled and said, "How can the general still hold a grudge? I just used the method of agitation. ”
"I'm not holding a grudge, you can say whatever you want me. But to say that I don't have a country and people in my heart, I can't agree with that. "Yi Sunsin is a more sincere person, and the most important thing in his heart is the country and the people.
"Then I apologize to the general. In the face of a person like Li Sunsin, Qi Chu was also willing to lower his own value, and when he was about to salute, he was taken out of his elbow by Li Sunsin.
"If Brother Qi is like this, won't he slap me in the face?" Li Sunsin led Qi Chu to sit down again.
It was only now that the two of them began a formal conversation.
Yi Sunsin learned from Qi Chu about the defeat of the land and water armies, and this bad news did not discourage him. Victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, and how can a general like Yi Sunsin care about temporary gains and losses.
"Brother Qi, I just want to know how many warships are left?"
Qi Chu knew that he wanted to build a turtle boat, but he also had to tell him bad news, "According to Pei Wedge's news, there is no one. ”
"Not a single one?"
