On the vast sea, as the sun rises, the fog gradually dissipates, and the waves rise and disappear with the sea breeze and then rise again. Unfortunately, perhaps because of the passing of the fleet, no sea fish occasionally jump out of the water.
The temporary ports all reveal a rough and crude style.
After Wu Chenghou took the lead to step off the stern, soldiers continued to line up from the fighting ships and sterns docked at the port. After walking from the port to the beach, they divided into two teams of different sizes.
Wuchenghou immediately broke away from Emperor Xin's support, pointed to the smaller team and said: "Your Highness, these people are the sailing masters I carefully selected from the navy. They are all from southern Xinjiang.
A good man."
"I will hand over these people to Your Highness during this period."
"It's easy to talk about. Marquis Wu Cheng is interested in it."
Di Xin looked moved and followed Wu Chenghou's movements and looked over.
Not to mention that the other group was the personal troops of Marquis Wu Cheng.
As the Grand Marshal of the Southern Frontier, no matter how high Wu Chenghou's personal combat power was, he would not be able to keep everyone he brought this time and go back alone.
This is not only for the sake of appearance, but also for the stability of southern Xinjiang.
If an accident occurs to a first-level border general, it will have a huge impact on southern Xinjiang.
In addition, those people pointed by Wu Chenghou will be the instructors responsible for teaching the expeditionary force how to control warships and navigate the sea in the next period of time.
The enthusiasm on Di Xin's face increased by three points, and he said attentively: "Marquis Wucheng is tired from traveling and traveling. I wonder if you have had breakfast?"
"If you haven't had breakfast before and you don't mind the shabby food in the military camp, how about joining the camp with me to have a meal?"
"In order not to delay the palace's expedition, I hurried over after dispatching a sufficient fleet. I haven't eaten anything to satisfy my hunger so far."
Wu Chenghou also had a smile on his face, and there were several wrinkles on his face that were blown by the sea breeze all day long.
"Since His Highness opened the mouth of Chrysostom, I will be disrespectful."
"If you and I don't speak the same language, why should Marquis Wu Cheng be polite to me?"
Di Xin laughed, and then seemed to realize something. He turned to Ouyang Xuan who was following behind him and said, "Ouyang Du ordered his colleagues to bring the soldiers who were imprisoned in the water prison into the camp, and then arrange food."
"These are also my soldiers from Dali. They are also on the run with us this time. If they starve to death, it will be our fault."
"I humble my duty and obey my orders."
After Ouyang Xuan handed over his hand, he strode away first.
Then Emperor Xin turned around and said with a smile again: "Wuchenghou, please!"
"Your Highness truly loves his soldiers as much as his sons. I am here to thank Your Highness for your kindness on behalf of those soldiers."
Wu Chenghou also laughed, then raised his hand and said: "Your Highness, please go first!"
…
Two hours later.
"Your Highness, if you still need help, just send someone to Shuilaoguan to let you know."
At the port, Marquis Wu Cheng said: "The military affairs at Shuilao Pass are busy, so I will go back first."
"In this case, I will not force you to stay. Marquis Wu Cheng will leave slowly!"
As he spoke, Di Xin also showed a trace of regret in his tone.
"When I have the opportunity next time, I will hold a banquet for His Highness at Shuilaoguan. I will take my leave this time."
After saying this, Wu Chenghou turned around and got on the boat.
Afterwards, the emperor left the port, and Marquis Wu Cheng's troops boarded the extra sixth building ship one step earlier.
Obviously, although Shuilaoguan is not too far from the camp, it is undoubtedly more convenient to use a boat.
Marquis Wu Cheng boarded the boat and allowed his soldiers to take it back, but the smile on his face was gone.
"What a little fox!"
Wu Chenghou snorted coldly, and when he turned around and waved to the shore, he had already put on a smile again.
He is also an innate great master, so he naturally knows how smart the great master is.
It was naturally impossible for the crippled King Yu to see the expression on his face from such a distance, but the same could not be said for the crippled old man behind him.
With the current distance from the shore to the boat, the crippled old man only needs to be a little more serious, and I'm afraid he can clearly see even the few hairs on his head.
…
"What an old fox!"
When Marquis Wu Cheng's building ship left under the escort of two fighting ships, Di Xin also lost his enthusiasm.
After laughing for so long, his face felt a little numb despite his physique.
Looking at the building boat going further and further away, Di Xin narrowed his eyes.
Even if Wuchenghou's official position is larger, and even if he is the uncle of King Jing, there is no need for him to show such excessive enthusiasm.
From the first time he stepped onto the wooden plank of this port in the early morning until now, Di Xin has only been acting.
The real purpose is naturally to test Wu Chenghou.
After Wu Chenghou not only did not refuse, but also took the initiative to increase the number of supporting warships, Di Xin quickly felt something strange in his heart.
And today's test also proved that his worries were not groundless.
Wu Chenghou, there is a problem.
A few years ago, before Emperor Xin came, the original King Yu also showed his desire for the throne, and his behavior of keeping a low profile and biding his time made him the weakest contender in the battle for the throne.
Even the eighth prince, Prince Qi, is more competitive than Prince Yu. Although the son of a businessman has status, he cannot stand up to his mother's family's wealth!
Even at that time, King Jing always treated King Yu with all kinds of humiliation. Even before Emperor Xin came, the entire salary of Prince Yu's palace was withheld by King Jing for no reason.
The disagreement between King Jing and King Yu is well known in the capital.
After Di Xin left the capital, although there was no chance of further friction with King Jing, after Di Xin revealed his covetousness for the throne, he really touched King Jing's core interests.
The conflict between the two has completely transformed from the love between children to the struggle for power.
As the uncle of King Jing, Wu Chenghou had stood clearly behind King Jing before. At this time, when Wu Chenghou faced him, the prince who had always been at odds with King Jing, even if he did not speak harshly, his attitude
This shouldn't be the case either.
If an uninformed person saw Wu Chenghou's performance today, he would think that he was supporting King Yu instead of King Jing!
Of course, Emperor Xin still doesn't know that Wu Chenghou has a faint tendency to switch to Prince Cheng's sect.
After all, if these nobles had not all given up their support for King Jing, I am afraid that his competitiveness for the throne would be almost the same as that of King Qi, who was born as the son of a businessman.
It's just a little better than the previous Yu Wang.
King Jing's current performance is that the mud is really not holding up the wall.
