Qiongzhou's wedding boat has colorful flags fluttering and red lights hanging high, which looks unusually showy.
Along the way, he also ordered to dock from time to time, taking advantage of the supply opportunity to make publicity.
Naturally, this move will attract some dignitaries in official circles and courtiers in shopping malls to send congratulations.
Qi Yu, on the other hand, deliberately looked like he was never tired of doing it, and he was able to save as much money as he could.
It does not violate the law to accept the extra box wedding gifts. If this is the case, why should we turn them away?
After he did this, the atmosphere of sending off the bride suddenly improved a lot.
In the eyes of outsiders, Qi Yu's trip north was simply to marry his daughter and have a wedding, and nothing else.
Due to frequent stops along the way, the speed slowed down. The daily voyage was only a hundred miles, and we anchored early before the sun set.
Qi Yu believed that his lazy posture could have a paralyzing effect to a certain extent, making the King of Goryeo unable to defend himself.
"Father, we should discuss where to park in Shandong Prefecture."
"In my daughter's opinion, how should we choose?"
"Jiaodong!"
"Um……"
The Jiaodong Peninsula in Shandong Prefecture is only a chasm away from Goryeo, making it an excellent place to take action.
As for this place, you can go to the country by land via three customs routes, or you can go directly by sailing by sea. Both options are available.
What's more important is that this place is not particularly sensitive and has plenty of theoretical space to make a big fuss about.
Therefore, Qi Xiaotong is very inclined to stop in Shandong and then launch further action plans.
"Father, I think this place is the best choice."
"The Shandong area seems reasonable, but upon closer inspection, it is somewhat inappropriate."
"Is that why?"
"Let's see..."
With a swish sound, Qi Yu opened the map, pointed at it and said: "If we anchor in Shandong, we will be at odds with the Qi army outside the pass. This kind of situation will cause chaos if not handled well.
The King of Korea is highly vigilant, so I don’t agree with that arrangement.”
"Then what should I do according to my father's opinion?" Xiaotong asked with twinkling eyes.
Qi Yu stroked his beard and said: "Since we want to do something unexpected, we must do it without any mistakes. Any unreasonable place may lead to the loss of everything and the result will be a failure.
! Taking this as a lesson, we should give up the convenience of Jiaodong and find other methods."
"If we don't establish a foothold in Shandong, then where should we choose as our base? Is it possible that we have to go to Mobei before making plans?" Xiaotong asked with a slight frown on her eyebrows.
"Mobei? It's too much to go there! If you turn back to Goryeo from there, you will not only have to pass through many checkpoints, but you may also get trapped in it and be unable to extricate yourself. This method is too dangerous and must be avoided. In my opinion, it is still
It is better to hover over the East China Sea, then assess the situation and wait for the opportunity. The advantage of this is that the escape route is not lost, and if there is any unexpected accident, there will not be no escape."
For now, Qiongzhou's ship is the fastest shipping vehicle in the entire world. As long as it can be started, it can ensure its escape and no one can catch up.
This is a technical way out by leveraging strengths and avoiding weaknesses.
It is also one of the trump cards for holding the bottom of the box.
Qi Yu felt that this natural passing gesture was both reasonable and low-key, and would not easily arouse suspicion and tension among the people in Goryeo.
Following this line of thinking, the father and daughter conducted further detailed discussions.
There is no way, this is a matter of adapting to circumstances, there is no fixed model to choose from, you can only take it one step at a time and decide when it comes.
Everything is flexible.
All the means previously decided must be used in this flexibility to find opportunities.
…
About ten days later.
Qiongzhou's fleet finally sailed to the Yellow Sea area.
Qi Yu gave the order to immediately adjust the course and sail to the northeast, and assumed a posture of passing around the Koryo Peninsula.
A few days later, the fleet approached the eastern coastline of Korea. The distance was not too far or too close, just right.
"From now on, play the ritual music, beat the gongs and drums, and deliberately slow down and move forward slowly!"
"In addition, don't forget to tell the soldiers to stay alert in case the other party suddenly attacks. If there is an emergency, you must also pay attention to stay calm. Without my military order, no one is allowed to act rashly. Anyone who disobeys the order will be executed!"
"..."
Qi Yu naturally didn't know that the situation at this time had subtly changed.
The change here refers specifically to Goryeo's attitude.
From a factual point of view, Qi Yu's caution played a crucial role in the development of the entire situation.
In fact, when he just announced that he was going north, Korea and Fusang had already paid close attention to him.
Despite the fact that they were silent, secretly, they were all staring at Nanyang's every move with their eyes wide open, and their nervousness was no less than that of enemy soldiers approaching the enemy.
This pressure comes entirely from Qi Dalang's own prestige.
His past achievements are proud and astonishing, which are enough to illustrate his terror. Who dares to underestimate him?
But it turned out to be a false alarm.
Qi Yu's trip north had no military purpose, but was just to arrange a marriage for his daughter.
Of course, we must also prevent him from saying one thing and doing another thing behind his back, and shooting someone in the back under the pretext of seeing off a bride.
Therefore, from the moment Qi Yu left the Qiongzhou port, their hidden scouts began to pay close attention to the report every day.
Judging from the intelligence sent back, Qi Yu only brought six ships with him on this trip, including two transport ships carrying dowry. With such a configuration, it did not pose a military threat at all.
Then, there are the ways he made money along the way, which directly proves that his purpose of going north is to arrange happy events, and there is no other motive.
With his status and reputation, it is absolutely impossible for him to deceive the world and steal his reputation and make profits behind closed doors.
Besides, it’s impossible for him to joke about his daughter’s reputation?
After comprehensive consideration, Qi Yu's move north should have nothing to do with the military and does not pose much of a threat.
Of course, it's impossible for you to plot against him.
Unless your battleship can be faster and more agile than his steamship, otherwise, don't have any dreams of being captured alive.
The dog-headed military advisor of the Goryeo Kingdom, Kim Liu-bok, after smoothing out all the military intelligence, decided to immediately go to the palace to see the emperor to offer his brilliant strategy.
He felt that now was the most opportune time to sow discord between Qi Yu and the center.
Opportunities are available but cannot be sought. If you miss them, it will be difficult to wait for the next time.
As for what strategy to adopt, he already knew it well and was waiting for the king to nod. This chapter has been completed!
