Martial Sage

General Yan Barracks, Quanzhou.

On the three-foot-high pavilion, General Yan squinted his eyes, looking at the river 100 meters away, with a panoramic view of the river.

The soldiers paddled the clippers, shuttled back and forth, neatly moved, coupled with the ‘yo-ho’ whirring, ear-splitting shouts filled the entire surface of the river.

After more than a year of training, I have to say that these soldiers are already very good in coordination.

General Yan stroked his beard, the smile on his face was even worse, he folded the corners of his eyes and sent it to the wrinkles.

"Look, our navy has such a speed, why can't it be on a certain island?"

Three years ago, after the discovery of the magical stone, the king of Tang immediately sent General Yan, who was born and raised in the land of fish and rice, to Quanzhou to vigorously develop the navy.

In the previous two years, the country was rich and the people were rich, so it is needless to say that the amount of money that was allocated to it was not much to say.

In the past year, however, frequent battles, especially the Turkic war, have suffered huge losses. The money transferred to Quanzhou is so small that it is less than one-third of the previous amount.

This General Yan thought of a way, which is to combine government and business to form a huge network of interests and draw a lot of money. The development of the Zheng family is an example.

Of course, the Zheng family was not specifically selected by General Yan, but a chance encounter. After talking about the two sentences, seeing the Zheng family's kindness, they promised the Zheng family to build a boat.

Both sides understand that General Yan’s choice is not the only one. If other new shipbuilding families emerge, General Yan will definitely make another choice.

It is precisely this point that has inspired Zheng Yuan to devote himself to improving the ship and never slackens.

The military officer on the side shook the pu fan, and his face was relieved, but for a moment, he was also lost in thought.

"It is true that the training of the navy is becoming more mature, but the transformation of our warships has not achieved much."

"I don't know when we can really go out to the ocean. There is Silla Baekje in the north, Goguryeo needs to be suppressed, and the Wa country in the east."

This reminder evoked General Yan's deficit at that moment.

This unit under his command was the first navy team in Datang, and General Yan eagerly hoped that these navy forces would fight a beautiful battle under Own's leadership and change their military merits.

After all, in such a peaceful and prosperous world, want to fight? difficult! It is even more difficult to win military merits by fighting!

Sip and sit on a sip of refreshing tea, refreshing thirst quenching tea, down your throat, minus most of the heat.

"Tang Hao, this kid is also very strange, he can attract people from the imperial city to come to join him, and sweep away the colored glaze."

"Judging from the Yangzhou Emergency News, Tang Hao is full of money."

"Speaking of it, I still blame Zheng Yuan for this waste, and it's not easy to go to the teacher."

Speaking of the pain, a flash of anger flashed across General Yan's face, and a layer of sadness appeared on his face.

From the beginning to the end, King Tang did not issue an order, clearly instructing General Yan and Tang Hao, who were in the south of the Yangtze River, to the navy who should take over the land of the south of the Yangtze River.

In the dark, it seemed that the two of them were compared.

Therefore, General Yan's attitude towards Tang Hao was on the one hand to guard and test on the other.

But this time and again vowed to drive away Tang Hao's Zheng family for General Yan, but he failed repeatedly, causing General Yan to be particularly unhappy.

The military strategist twisted the few beards under his jaw, squinting slightly in contemplation for a moment.

"The general really doesn't have to be anxious. Tang Hao didn't take any action against the general this time. It can be seen that he is just holding a try."

"Maybe, if you can do everything you can, the construction will generally stop there. It's not impossible."

"Just say that this shipbuilding can't be built with human resources as Tang Hao imagined."

Having said that, in General Yan's heart, there is always a knife hanging in his heart, and it will fall off every moment.

General Yan stood up, looked at the lively training scene on the river, and said slowly.

"This time, the Zheng family is taking our guards to annex the Yu family. Presumably Tang Hao won't sit idly by. My heart is beating the drum."

"If it succeeds, the Zheng family will grow bigger, and we will have protection. If it fails, we will abandon the Zheng family, and we will have no expert in shipbuilding."

The strategist stood quietly beside General Yan, showing a knowing smile.

"The general is worrying too much."

"This time, no matter what, we can be winners."

Seeing the military commander's confident appearance, General Yan was puzzled and asked.

"Why?"

There was a treacherous smile hidden in the mysterious smile, and the military commander at this time looked like a slippery loach.

"Tang Hao came to the south of the Yangtze River this time to build a big ship, which can communicate with the countries on the sea, and can also attack the countries from the sea and land."

"In the end, Tang Hao is still stuck on shipbuilding this time."

Fingers pointed at the busy river surface in front of him, and the military commander shook his fan.

"Look, general, this is the soldier we cultivated!"

"When Tang Hao's ship is built, you said this soldier, will your majesty recruit from other places?"

General Yan looked at the military division in a daze, said.

"You mean, after Tang Hao builds the ship, we can sit back and reap the benefits and transport our soldiers over."

"At that time, with my prestige, will Tang Hao be completely elevated?"

Said the sergeant cupped hands.

"The general's foresight is really admirable!"

General Yan was taken aback and then laughed.

"Wonderful! Such a strategy is wonderful!"
