Chapter 169
Li Guangcai knew what King Huaiyang meant.
Last time, it was obvious that the Japanese and Shi Guohou colluded with each other, which resulted in the princess being kidnapped, but the prince was tripped by the imperial envoy.
Shi Yikuan was really brave enough to do it. He poked the King of Huaiyang seven inches from the scene. Now he built a large ship in the court, and there were a lot of criticisms about the people and money.
If these two imperial envoys who were tortured by the Huaiyang King in Beihai returned, this may add fuel to the fire.
So Cui Xingzhou had already reported to the court, saying that the two imperial envoys had contracted the epidemic and had to rest for a while, so he simply kept the two men to the end and waited until the war was over.
In the past few days, the Japanese were obviously at the end of their journey, and they took risks several times to send people ashore to secretly buy food.
Since the Japanese had already experienced a food shortage, there were also Japanese people who always sailed secretly from Corps Island in small boats, which shows that the Japanese have lost their morale.
It was the best time for the attack, so Cui Xingzhou also led the generals to formulate a naval battle plan. When the wind direction of the sea breeze was right, he attacked Kou Island in one fell swoop, removing the cancer that had caused trouble to the Beihai for many years.
But before the battle, I always have to go home to see it. Once the war begins, I don’t know how long it will take to see his beautiful wife and beloved son.
Liu Miantang is actually really heartless and has no mind. Cui Xingzhou.
In the past few days, under the leadership of Li's mother, she recognized the servants in the house and checked her own furniture store.
I don’t know if I don’t check this, she is so rich and generous now.
Although both Li’s mother and Lu Yi said that her furniture was obtained by working day and night. However, when Miantang lost her memory, she felt a sense of happiness that the meat pie fell from the sky and hit her body.
After this amnesia, I suddenly realized that I had a wealth of wealth... It was really great!
That day, Cui Xingzhou and Li Guangcai came back early and prepared for their family to have a meal.
However, Fang Xie said that the wife was tired and she had not gotten up after going to bed in the afternoon.
Cui Xingzhou then stepped into the inner room. As soon as he walked into the room, he felt that the touch was wrong. He looked down at the bottom of his feet and saw the traces of the floor tiles turning.
When Cui Xingzhou entered the house, Liu Miantang also woke up in the bed. She noticed someone, and she rolled up and poked her head out to look at Cui Xingzhou alertly.
Seeing Cui Xingzhou looking down at the ground, she immediately tried to calm down and said, "What are the prince looking at?"
Cui Xingzhou sat towards her without caring, then sat on the bed and asked, "What? Are you burying the silver again?"
Mian Tang stared slightly, surprised how he guessed so accurately! Fortunately, she asked Lu Yi to send all the maids and maids away before burying the money!
Now the Beihai is about to start a war. Who knows whether the King of Huaiyang can win? She asked Lu Yi to go to the silver shop in a foreign county to exchange silver notes, prepare three boxes of silver and buried them in the inner room.
Once in chaos, at least you can immediately get a silver and run away with her son.
Unexpectedly, I just buried this morning and was guessed by the King of Huaiyang who was not at home.
This must be an insider. Let's wait until she finds it out, and not peel off the guy's skin to light the sky lantern!
Cui Xingzhou looked at her erratic eyes and wanted to laugh, so he hugged her and said, "Don't think about it, no one is a spy. You also buried money in the old house on North Street. When you go back, you will be able to dig it slowly."
Miantang didn't expect that he had done this before, and had not avoided Cui Xingzhou. He felt even more guilty for a moment, thinking that compared to him, he seemed not open and righteous enough to leave with money.
So she thought about it and said guiltily: "...I'm just in case! If you have a high horse and a short stirrup, I can help you..."
Unfortunately, Cui Xingzhou could see through her little thoughts and raised his eyebrows and said, "Don't have the intention to sneak away with the child?"
Miantang thought for a while and said confidently: "As long as you don't die in battle, I will take you away."
This kind of curse-free words made Cui Xingzhou narrow his eyes slightly: "You mean I can't beat the turtle son of Yingsi Temple? He must have that ability!"
Liu Miantang said honestly: "I'm afraid of the turtles in the jar and other backup plans. How could the Japanese be able to rage in the Beihai for so long, so how could they not have some real skills?"
In the past, Cui Xingzhou never talked about military affairs with Liu Miantang.
But now Liu Miantang is too annoying. He looks like he can't trust him at all. He even buried his widow's pension. Are you sure he will lose?
So he said, "Now Kou Island has been surrounded by groups, his morale is disintegrating, and he can't break through several times. Let's ask him how Yingshi Temple escaped from the heavens?"
Liu Miantang thought for a while, went downstairs and took a few small porcelain cups from the table to serve as warships, and the large porcelain pots were used as Kou Island, and began to calculate the marching tactics.
Then she pretended to be a Japanese and attacked with Cui Xingzhou.
Cui Xingzhou saw her serious arrangements and found it a little funny, but seeing that she was so serious, she cooperated with her.
Cui Xingzhou has practiced with the generals in the military camp countless times, so he naturally has his own strategy in his heart and will not mess up his attacks when attacking.
It's just that unlike the drills in the barracks, the Lu Dazang defended his defensive style.
For example, when the North Sea naval army surrounded the north shore of Kou Island and was about to climb the cliffs to attack the island by climbing the cliffs. When it came unexpectedly, Liu Miantang sprinkled some of her snacks on that side.
Cui Xingzhou asked in confusion: "What is this?"
Miantang said seriously: "Shark. During the days I was on Kou Island, when I saw them carrying the dead captives to the cliffs in the north to throw them away, I asked Yingsi Temple. Maybe I was afraid that I would jump from the sea to escape, so he told me that many sharks gathered there and tear a corpse, and it took a moment to complete. If you dare to send troops to climb into the water, I would pour a few buckets of blood into the sea to summon the fanged soldiers, and then ask your navy troops to feed the sharks."
Cui Xingzhou really didn't know that there was such a way in the deep sea under the northern cliffs of Kou Island. After a while, he left the north and attacked from the shallows on the south road.
Miantang picked up five small mozzarellas and put them on the shallows.
Cui Xingzhou said expressionlessly: "Is this a cannon?"
Mian Tang looked at King Huaiyang with a teaching look, saying, "When I ran away that day, I once walked around half of the island. I accidentally saw five such cannons on the south bank. They all had thick bases and thick muzzles. Because the tonnage was too heavy, they should not be installed on the ship. However, when they were on the shore, the cannon would be powerful and the range would be very long. Five cannons could be fired one after another. At that time, the ships in the North Sea would... dongdongdong..."
Miantang picked up the five-spice dung beans and filled them with shells, smashing them at the warships in the North Sea, only causing the big teacups to fall...
Cui Xingzhou was silent for a moment, and he was shocked and angry at this time. Although he sent out many spies, almost no one could get close to Kou Island, so he naturally didn't know what the fortifications on the island were.
But the Japanese actually had such a powerful cannon? It required countless fine iron and capable crafts to cast.
If everything Miantang said is true, then how could the Japanese have such a powerful weapon? This is definitely not something you can get overnight.
For a moment, Cui Xingzhou suddenly realized that perhaps the collusion between Shi Guojiu Yingsi Temple was not simply stumbling to him, or perhaps there was a deeper collusion between them.
Cannon, fine iron... iron ore? If he remembered correctly, the iron ore that was controlled by Sui Wang in the northwest finally fell into Shi Yikuan's hands.
Thinking of this, Cui Xingzhou stood up, and didn't even bother to eat, and hurried out.
Miantang was stunned when he looked at the teacup on a bed, and the mohua and fried rice noodles were also stunned. He suddenly felt a little nervous and felt that he should come to Lu Yi tomorrow and ask him to repay more silver, prepare a larger pickaxe and shovel, and bury more silver to feel at ease...
Not to mention that the floor tiles in Miantang's inner room were going to suffer again, Cui Xingzhou sent a letter overnight, ordering the spies in the northwest and capital to investigate the movements of the northwest iron ore.
Now the war in Beihai is no longer a simple front in Beihai. Since Shi Yikuan has had a bad idea behind him and has set off a wave of impeachment in the court, then don’t blame him for investigating Shi Guomao!
However, a drill of fried rice noodles and tea cups on the bed of the prince's house also defeated the combat plan formulated by the soldiers of the Beihai for several days and nights.
When Li Guangcai watched the demonstration of King Huaiyang on the beach sand table, he was sweating coldly on his back.
If Kou Island is really as demonstrated by the King of Huaiyang, then once the battle to attack the island is really launched, the ships and cannons in the North Sea will definitely be damaged countless times. At that time, the results of the loss of soldiers and generals will be reported, and the wave of counterattacking the prince in the court will probably become more and more intense.
At that time, the military achievements of King Huaiyang for many years will be completely smoothed out, and the stains that cannot be washed away will be covered.
"This... if the Japanese were so fully prepared, why would they have to flee from Kok Island in a hurry?"
Thinking of the Japanese and cargo ships that were intercepted by the North Sea Navy in the past few days, Li Guangcai was puzzled.
Cui Xingzhou was awakened by Liu Miantang inadvertently, and he thought everything was clear for a moment. It was true that Yingsi Temple wanted to send Miantang back to Japan. But if you want to escape while the typhoon is coming, you have to discuss it.
He came out of his house that day and asked many old men in the North Sea. Before the Corps Island was occupied, it was the shelter for many local fishermen.
There are many natural stone caves on the island that can avoid typhoon days. Moreover, those stone caves are cool, even if the vegetables and meat are piled up, they will not be damaged for a long time.
In the past, many old fishermen always put some pickled fresh fish and vegetables on the island in advance to prepare for emergencies. However, later the island was occupied by the Japanese, and many young people nowadays do not know the situation on the island.
The Japanese occupied the island of Corps for so long, and eating them for a whole year is not a problem just by preparing food and preparing vegetables from several caves.
After Cui Xingzhou understood these things, he became more and more stern in his heart. Now he found out that the cargo ships were filled with insignificant tea and porcelain.
Why does Yingshi Temple frequently send cargo ships, creating the illusion that there is no food on the island and that it is necessary to buy regularly?
Those are all baits, they are baits that tempt the Beihai Navy underestimated the enemy to attack the island!
If it weren't for the fact that Lu Da was good at olfactory crisis, he would have almost been fooled by the scheming Yingshiji Temple.
