Chapter 1003 Prelude to the Great War

Zhou Tai glanced at it, and his expression was very complicated by excitement and fear. He said, "I believe you are not unfamiliar with this weapon! I heard that there are a large number of such weapons in the Ross army."

Ryuze Ichiro nodded with his fists and said in a deep voice: "Not only is the physique of Ross, he is also thick in armor and has a strong weapon, and he has such a powerful weapon! However, we Yamato people are not corrupt. Although we are at a disadvantage, we can still barely block their offensive."

Zhou Tai smiled and refused to say anything. He asked, "I don't know what the situation of the Ross warship is." In fact, Zhou Tai had already obtained relevant information from the Intelligence Agency, but he still hoped to hear the situation of the Ross navy from the Japanese people whom Ichiro Ryuze had personally experienced.

Ryuze Ichiro frowned and thought for a moment, and replied: "The Ross warships are equipped with twenty artillery guns, with a sharp bow and a large sail. I am bluntly speaking, although the warships of your army are larger than those of the Ross, they are probably slightly inferior in flexibility!"

Zhou Tai was not surprised by Longze Ichiro's evaluation, because before that, whether it was information from the Intelligence Agency or the judgment of the emperor Chen Chu, he believed that in terms of flexibility, the "fortress ship" was not as good as the Ross warships.

"By the way, general, how many cannons are equipped with this 'fortress ship'?" asked Ryuze Ichiro.

Zhou Tai smiled slightly and said with a hint of awesomeness: "Thirty-two heavy cannons!"

Ichiro Longze was shocked and said tremblingly with three fingers standing up: "Three, Thirty-Two Gate!"

Zhou Tai nodded and said to Long Zeyiro with confidence: "No matter how powerful the Ross naval army is, I believe that my Great Qin naval army will definitely wipe it out!"

Ryuze Ichiro couldn't help swallowing and nodded involuntarily.

"By the way, General, we will leave tomorrow. How can the army go?" asked Longze Ichiro.

Zhou Tai glanced at Longze Ichiro and smiled and said, "Your Majesty has no intention to send an army for the time being. As long as our navy restrains or annihilates the Ross navy, the Japanese army should be able to stabilize or reverse the situation!"

Ichiro Longze could not help but flashed with disappointment, but then nodded with confidence: "What the general said is extremely true! As long as the Chinese navy restrains the Ross navy, I believe that our evil horses and Taiwan army can definitely turn defeat into victory!"

Longze Ichiro's face suddenly changed. He swallowed, swallowed, and his eyes twitched. He seemed to be calculating something with his fingers. It turned out that Longze Ichiro suddenly thought of the promise he made to Chen Chu in person when he was in Luoyang.

Zhou Tai found that Ryuze Ichiro's face was different and couldn't help but ask: "Emunique, are you feeling uncomfortable?"

Ichiro Longze came to his senses and forced himself to smile and shook his head, "Thank you for your concern, I'm fine!"

Zhou Tai smiled and asked, "Does the messenger continue to visit?"

Ryuze Ichiro was not in the mood to visit at this moment, and he clasped his fists and said, "I won't visit anymore! I want to go back and rest!"

"Okay." Then he ordered the two sailors next to him, "You two bring the envoys back!" The sailor responded and left with the heartache Ichiro Longze.

Zhou Tai couldn't help feeling amused when he looked at Longze Ichiro's back.

The next morning, a fleet of more than 500 ships of various ships set sail and left Mouping Port and marched towards Japan, which was still very unfamiliar with the people of the Central Plains in this era.

In the Palace of the Ematai thousands of miles away, the Queen is discussing affairs with several ministers, one of whom is the General Miyamoto Masanan who has just returned from the front line.

"Queen, our army's third line of defense is almost impossible to resist!" Miyamoto Masako said worriedly.

Himehu frowned and asked unhappily: "Hasn't we recruited 100,000 troops from all over the country? And all the soldiers and armor purchased from Daqin have been handed over to you."

Miyamoto Masanan lay down in front of the queen and explained: "The number of our soldiers is not greater than that of the opponent. Now, in addition to the Ross army, there are also a considerable number of Hokkaido rebels. Although the Han people gave us good armor, they cannot resist the evil flames of the 'fire dragon'!"

Humihu was silent for a moment and asked in a deep voice: "How long can we resist?"

Miyamoto Masanan hesitated for a moment and knelt down and replied: "If there were no foreign aid, our army's front line would collapse this year!"

The hall was silent and the atmosphere seemed very depressing.

After a while, Humi couldn't help but sigh, and then a strong look flashed in her beautiful eyes, "No matter what, I will not give up!" The queen's determination made all the ministers who were shaken in confidence secretly ashamed. At this moment, a commissar rushed in.

"Your Majesty, Lord Ryuze Ichiro's flying pigeon passes the letter!" The commemorative report reported.

Everyone present couldn't help but feel excited. "Come on!" Himeji couldn't wait to say, and at this moment she couldn't help but feel very nervous.

The letter was taken from the commander and hurriedly opened it; the people present stared at the letter in the hand of Himehu, and they couldn't help but feel that the only hope was there.

"That's great!" Himehu suddenly shouted loudly in a very serious situation.

"Queen, I don't know what Ryuzawa Ichiro said in the letter," General Miyamoto Masanan asked impatiently.

Himehu glanced at the urgent officials on the plane and said with unconcealed excitement: "Tell everyone good news, Daqin has decided to send troops!"

The ministers were stunned. Miyamoto Masanan asked in disbelief: "Is this true?"

Himehu nodded and said, "It should be no mistake! General, the Qin army will arrive in the latest one month. I hope you can firmly stabilize the front during this period!"

"Your Majesty, please rest assured!" Miyamoto Masanan said confidently.

Hashimihu thought for a moment and ordered: "I ordered all localities to recruit men over 15 and under 50 to join the army. Anyone who enlisted in the army will be given a halved land rent!"

Several civil officials knelt down and agreed.

At this point, the war in Japan has entered a new stage. It is no longer the Japanese who decide the outcome of this war, but the Ross and the Qin.

...

On this day, after obtaining Chen Chu's consent, Da Qiao took Chen Chu's second son Chen Yishan back to her parents' home.

As soon as he returned home, Qiao Xuan ran out to greet him with surprise. Regardless of Da Qiao's opposition, he led a group of people to pay homage to Da Qiao.

Da Qiao quickly helped his father and mother up and said in a very complaining way: "Dad, mom, you don't have to do this!"

"Hey, I want it! You can't let it go!" Qiao Xuan said justice.

Qiao's mother glanced at Qiao Xuan, held Da Qiao's slender hand and looked at it carefully, unable to stop crying. Seeing this scene, Da Qiao couldn't stand it and cried.

"Why are you two crying?" Qiao Xuan said unhappily.

Qiao's mother wiped her tears and smiled, "Yes, I'm really an old lady!"

Just as Da Qiao was about to talk to her mother, Qiao Xuan stretched her neck and looked around and asked, "Where is my grandson?"

Qiao's mother glared at Qiao Xuan and said angrily: "That's the prince! You old man can't mess with etiquette!"

Qiao Xuan said for granted: "Of course it's the prince! But it's also my grandson!" His chin was raised, and the old man's face turned out to be a naughty boy, which was really ridiculous!

Da Qiao couldn't help but smile and called out to the back. Then a palace maid walked up carefully with a very cute little boy.

The little boy blinked his big eyes and looked at this and that, looking very curious and very cute.

"Shan'er, call me grandma, master!" Da Qiao taught with Xiao Shan'er's hand.

Xiao Shan'er called obediently: "Grandma, master!" His voice was crisp and refreshing. The two old men were so happy.

When he arrived in the hall, Da Qiao reported to the palace maid and servants. At this time, Qiao Xuan was holding Xiao Shan'er and kissing her cheeks very dotingly. Xiao Shan'er frowned, looking helpless and cute.

"Okay, old man! Look, Xiao Shan'er can't stand you anymore!" Qiao's mother said angrily and amused. Xiao Shan'er actually nodded seriously.
