The first thousand one hundred and eighty-eight chapters return to camp
"Quick, quick, tell me to go down, put away my attacks, and take off my guard."
"Put away your attacks and release your defenses."
Seeing that the others did not move, Zhou Qiming, who had achieved military success in this expedition and had just been promoted to Zheng Qianhu, kicked him up.
While kicking him, he also cursed: "Open your dog eyes and take a look. That is His Royal Highness Prince Yu's merchant ship. Point weapons at His Highness Prince Yu. Are you impatient?"
Although he cursed a lot, he was actually the most nervous.
After all, he was the one who ordered the transformation into battle mode.
While Zhou Qiming ordered to release the attack mode, he secretly regretted it.
Since arriving here, they have been training every day. After the initial freshness, these soldiers, who are used to fighting, have long been exhausted in more than half a year.
As we all know, when you are holding back too much, you always want to let it out.
So, when they saw a merchant ship heading towards them today, many people instantly became excited.
And because his fighting ship was the closest to the merchant ship, he naturally seized this opportunity.
It was just a merchant ship. No matter how reckless Zhou Qiming was, he couldn't really hurt someone without the other party fighting back.
But just because you can't hurt someone doesn't mean you can't threaten.
Therefore, although he shouted at Xiaokengli to let the merchant ship leave, he secretly prayed in his heart not to leave.
It doesn't take much, it's enough for him to give the order to shoot two rounds of arrows around the merchant ship.
The merchant ship was indeed as he expected. Although it did not move forward, it did not just turn away.
However, the raised flag directly put an end to his urge to indulge.
Now Zhou Qiming's heart has long lost the excitement at the beginning, and has turned into a desolate one.
He actually dared to order bows and arrows to be aimed at His Royal Highness Prince Yu, and even threatened to attack the merchant ship on which His Royal Highness Prince Yu was traveling. This made him miserable.
But other people on the fighting ship didn't think so much.
In the past few years since they took office as General Zhenguan, these soldiers have already been impressed by His Royal Highness King Yu. Now they heard the news of his return and suddenly became excited.
As for being scolded?
As soldiers, they have been scolded by their superiors more than once and twice, and they have long been used to it.
"Pull the ship over."
Following Zhou Qiming's order, the excited soldiers put away their weapons and hurriedly maneuvered the fighting ships to approach the merchant ships.
After a while, the springboard connected the fighting ship and the merchant ship.
Zhou Qiming jumped onto the merchant ship along the gangplank. When he saw the figure directly in front of him, the last trace of warmth in his heart was lost.
That's right, it's really His Royal Highness Prince Yu.
"Zhou Qiming, who holds the humble position of being a member of the Qianhu household, pays homage to His Royal Highness King Yu."
Zhou Qiming knelt directly on the deck and apologized: "I just offended Your Highness, please forgive me."
Di Xin said with a majestic face: "With the army out there, it's a good thing to be vigilant. You didn't know that I was on the ship just now, so it's normal to be on guard."
"Get up!"
Hearing that His Highness King Yu would not punish him, Zhou Qiming breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness."
And when he stood up, Di Xin continued to speak: "I know it's a good thing to be vigilant, but being too vigilant is making a fuss out of a molehill."
"If this is really just an ordinary merchant ship, what should you do if you ordered an attack just now and accidentally hurt innocent people again?"
"You have to remember that the purpose of joining the army is to protect the people of Dawn, not to bully and harm."
After being beaten for a while, Zhou Qiming only dared to nod his head in agreement. How dare he say that even though he wanted to shoot two rounds of arrows around the merchant ship just now, he actually had no intention of hurting anyone.
Rather than giving improper orders, His Royal Highness Prince Yu obviously hates treating people's lives as a joke even more.
"Okay, when you go back, think more about how to deal with this kind of thing in the future."
After Emperor Xin beat Zhou Qiming for a while, he said: "The soldiers who have returned from the capital with me have had a tiring journey. Return to the camp early and let them have a good rest."
"yes!"
Zhou Qiming wished it was over, and upon hearing this, he immediately ordered the fighting ships to get out of the way.
Then, under the escort of fighting ships, the merchant ships flying the flag of Emperor Xin sailed towards the port.
After arriving at the port, Di Xin discovered that the port was a little different.
If the previous port was just a temporary platform that would be kept for use, then now it has been processed and stabilized.
The appearance and stability have been greatly enhanced.
Di Xin was speechless.
It seems that the expeditionary force, which has seen blood in the past six months, is indeed holding back a bit.
This was originally a temporary port, and even when the expeditionary force retreated, it had to be demolished before leaving in order not to leave a port suitable for pirates and invading barbarians to land.
In order to prevent mistakes, Di Xin had notified the port at the beginning of its construction.
Now, knowing that this is just a port that will be demolished soon, the expeditionary force still strengthened it to the point where it is no different from an official port, and it is indeed very careful.
But it is a pity that when he came back this time, he did not bring them news of continuing the expedition.
After getting off the merchant ship and walking on the reinforced wooden planks of the port, Di Xin looked at the soldiers gradually surrounding him and said something silently in his heart.
One day, he will take them through the mountains and rivers of the Ancient Moon Realm.
What we have to do now is return to camp.
Di Xin waved his hand and dismissed the soldiers who were approaching to salute, and walked along the gentle slope towards the military camp on the cliff.
Xizi, Song Qianwei, Zeng Hongshen, Yaoluo Ge Tongjian, Wei Sanhanwu and dozens of guards followed behind him.
After Zhou Qiming got off the ship, he pushed him back to the fighting ship to continue training.
He just came back from the capital, there was no need to mobilize troops.
After entering the camp, Ouyang Xuan, who had already received the news, was the first to rush over.
"Ouyang Xuan, a humble official, has met His Highness."
"No need to be polite."
Di Xin stopped Ouyang Xuan from kneeling on one knee, turned around and ordered the dozens of guards who followed him back to the capital and returned: "Starting from today, you will take a three-day break from bathing. Go ahead!"
He glanced at Wei San and Han Wu and said, "You two too."
"Thank you, Your Highness."
Including Wei San and Han Wu, all the guards felt happy, thanked them and then retreated.
The boat ride was bumpy all the way, even if they slept, they couldn't sleep well. Now that they finally stepped on land, what they wanted most was to have a good sleep, and then talk about other things after replenishing their energy.
Then Di Xin looked at Xizi and Song Qianwei and said, "You should go and rest first!"
"Um!"
Xizi and Song Qianwei nodded. Their tents had been left in the camp, and they went back immediately.
Di Xin looked at Zeng Hongshen again.
Zeng Hongshen shook his head and said: "I am not tired, and it is not too late to take a rest later."
"Um."
Emperor Xin did not show any pretense. He turned back to Ouyang Xuan and said vigorously, "Follow me to the camp."
"yes."
Ouyang Xuan raised his hand and said yes.
Di Xin, Zeng Hongshen, Yao Luo, Ge Tongjian and Ouyang Xuan walked into the largest military tent in the camp.
