An Gou'er said it so straightforwardly, Tan Qinghai would really be a fool if he didn't understand An Gou'er's intention.
Looking at An Gou'er's sinister...well...meaningful smile, Tan Qinghai couldn't help but shudder. In recent years, because of the company of Queen Luya, An Gou'er has had more and more smiles on his face.
stand up.
Tan Haiqing and others originally thought that General An's character had changed unknowingly after having a wife and child!
It seems now that General An is still the same General An as he was back then.
It's just that General An, who always smiles, is more sinister than the big ice cube back then.
"If you say that, Commander-in-Chief, the General will have nothing to say.
It's just that now we don't know how many troops this demon army has. How many troops should we dispatch?
We can't just go out with 50,000 troops, right? If that's the case, our fleet may be stolen and plundered by some Western barbarians at any time!
They have been coveting our big treasure ship for too long."
"That's not the case. It's not for the purpose of expanding our territory. How can we dispatch all our troops?
Just send 20,000 troops, with a hundred artillery pieces and plenty of artillery shells.
If you can bombard with artillery, you will never let your brothers risk their lives to fight.
If you can defeat them, annihilate them with all your strength. If there is a disparity in strength, just withdraw your troops and return to the port of Adens.
We can just take this opportunity to let those Westerners with evil intentions see our weak side and fish out the greed in their hearts as soon as possible."
"Wonderful, achieve multiple things with one stone!"
An Gouer glanced at Luya, who was sitting on the bedside and yawning repeatedly, stood up and stretched.
"Let's do this for the time being. It's getting late, so you should go back and rest."
"Yes! By the way, Commander-in-Chief, I have something I want to discuss with you."
An Gouer's eyes flashed back to the afternoon when he was strolling with Luya at the market and saw the bright eyes of the fleet officers and soldiers looking at those Western women.
Having worked with Tan Qinghai for so many years, Tan Qinghai understood what Tan Qinghai wanted to say without having to talk to An Gouer.
Thinking of the nearly two months of sailing at sea, An Gouer was silent for a while.
"Your salary is paid on a monthly basis, and you will never be in debt. Just don't take advantage of it in vain.
It’s a month, please arrange it in batches!
Otherwise, if so many soldiers all rush into the port at once, it will be exhausting!"
When Tan Haiqing saw An Gouer, he immediately guessed what he was thinking, and scratched his head awkwardly: "Yes... yes, it will be properly arranged in the end.
Then you and Queen Luya should rest first, and the general will retire."
"etc!"
Tan Haiqing's expression froze, thinking that An Gou'er had changed his mind, and looked at An Gou'er who called him uneasily.
"General soldier?"
"It's not a problem at all. After our goods are sold, how many ships will be vacated?"
"There are a total of three hundred and sixty-two large and small ships!"
"Nearly four hundred, that's a lot."
"When you are free, go to the military recorder and count how many of the soldiers are married and how many are not married.
If those who are not married meet the Western women they like and are truly willing to marry them, and can convince them that they are truly in love with the soldiers, they can be allowed to sail back to my Dalong with the fleet.
Those who have wives and children at home can also take a Western woman as a concubine to accompany the fleet back home as long as they truly love each other and are not afraid of trouble from the tigress at home.
However, there are only more than 300 sea ships available for the time being, so let’s arrange them first for the soldiers with meritorious deeds!”
Tan Qinghai looked at An Gouer blankly for a while, frowning slightly: "Is this...appropriate?"
After Tan Qinghai finished speaking, he took a peek at Luya who was yawning again and again, and moved slightly towards An Gouer.
"It's not about Queen Luya. She is a barbarian woman after all. If His Majesty is unhappy when he finds out, we two will not be able to explain it at that time!"
"What's inappropriate? There are hundreds of rivers in Hainan, and tolerance is great.
As long as it can increase the population of my dragon, my brother will never stick to trivial matters!
Secondly, brothers who sail on the sea all year round, it doesn’t matter if they have wives and children, but what about those who have no heirs?
If something like the one in the Kingdom on which the sun never sets happens, it would be better to give them a backup.
If they don’t find a Western woman to marry, continue their great career, and wander around the sea all year round, they still have to have time to find their beloved and settle down in our Dalong!"
"That's true!
Yes, as long as you, the commander-in-chief, are fine, let alone me, the deputy commander-in-chief.
If your Majesty is really to blame, we can all bear it together!"
"Don't worry, I still understand this, brother.
He is the king who can best understand the hardships faced by soldiers."
"Okay, then I'll take my leave now, general."
"Well! I won't send it!"
An Gouer closed the door and walked towards the house.
I saw that Luya, who had already yawned repeatedly, didn't look sleepy at this moment.
Luya took out a cleaned sheep intestine from the purse at her waist and placed it on the bedside. She looked at the laughing An Gouer with a charming smile and rushed towards it.
"Husband!"
"Little goblin, I will fight with you!"
After a while, a different note echoed in the stone house.
At the same time, under the starry sky more than three hundred miles away from Yemen, several luxurious four-wheel carriages were slowing down from fast to slow on the wide yellow sand, until they slowly stopped.
In front of the carriage at the front, a middle-aged man with a cloth wrapped around his head turned and looked at the carriage behind him.
"Your Majesty, Queen, we have arrived at the border of Radha. If nothing happens, we will be able to enter the border town of Shweda in Yemen in three to five days!
We can’t drive any further today, otherwise the horses will be unable to bear it, and if the horses die from exhaustion, we will have to rush to Yemen on foot.”
After a pause, an old and restless voice came from the carriage.
"Eben, those demonic legions from the east are not chasing you, are they?"
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, General Sudala is leading five hundred soldiers and horses to conduct reconnaissance and cover at the back. Once the demon army pursues us, General Sudala will definitely send us a message!"
“That’s good, that’s good, God bless, those demons from the east must not pursue us!
I'm hungry. You should prepare something to eat immediately.
As you command, my king!"
The middle-aged man immediately jumped out of the carriage and waved to the carriage driver behind him.
"Barry, Dal, Hal...you help me light the fire and prepare food for the king, queen, princes and princesses."
"Yes, Commander Aiben!"
A group of driving servants carried various cooking tools from a carriage one after another.
Soon after, a bright fire burned in the boundless wilderness.
A bearded old man in his fifties jumped out of the luxurious carriage. The old man wore a crown inlaid with gorgeous gems on his head, and the royal robes on his body were dotted with various gems.
The identity of this person is obviously the Great Food King, Muhammad Mead.
"Queen, come down quickly! You can't continue on your way tomorrow until you are full."
A woman in her early thirties with a luxurious temperament walked out of the carriage and jumped to the ground with the help of the big food king Maid.
Under the illumination of the bonfire, those dark brown eyes looked at the surrounding environment, with a look of shock and panic still on their faces.
"Your Majesty, how are the children?"
"My beloved, they should all be sleeping in the carriage. They are so scared!"
The Queen of the Eater King, Safisa, the sister of Sana'a, the King of Yemen, looked at the fearful look on the Eater King's face, and a look of contempt flashed in her deep eyes.
If he hadn't been greedy, forcibly plundering the treasures of merchants from the Great Dragon Kingdom, and even killing other merchants, how could he and he be reduced to such an exhausting life on the run now?
"I don't know if the soldiers and horses of the Eastern Kingdom that my brother sent the envoy to talk about can solve this crisis!"
"Queen, why are you so dazed? Aiben and the others should have prepared the barbecue. Let's go over quickly!"
