Liu Mingzhi chuckled and nodded, then raised his hand and pointed casually at the chairs in the study.
"My dear friends, please stop standing and sit down."
"Yes, thank you Your Majesty."
Song Qing, Zhang Kuang, Wanyan Chiezha and others all gave Young Master Liu a fist in unison, and then they started to disperse towards the chairs placed on both sides.
Liu Mingzhi looked at the generals dispersing to both sides. He raised the tobacco bag in his hand and took a puff of tobacco. He then looked at Liu Song, who was standing inside the threshold holding a tray, with a smile.
"Liu Song, I'll show you tea for all my dear friends."
"Yes, little one, I obey."
Liu Song nodded with a smile on his face, and immediately walked towards Song Qing and the others who had just sat down on the chairs with the tray in his hand.
Seeing this, Song Qing quickly stood up from the chair, then he smiled and stretched out his hands to lift two pots of tea from the tray in Liu Song's hand.
Immediately, he turned around and gestured towards Young Master Liu's desk with his lips raised.
"Brother Liu Song, we can just pour the tea ourselves. You can pour the tea for His Majesty first."
Liu Song looked at Song Qing, who had already picked up two pots of tea, and nodded hesitantly.
"Well, okay, that would be rude."
"It should, it should."
Liu Song nodded slightly, took down two piles of teacups and placed them on the table next to Song Qing, then immediately walked towards Young Master Liu's desk.
Song Qing first placed the teapot in his right hand on the table beside him, then with a smile on his face, he raised the teapot in his left hand and gestured to Cheng Kai, Ning Chao and others opposite him.
"Brother Cheng Kai, this is yours."
As soon as Song Qing raised the teapot to signal, Cheng Kai hurriedly got up from his chair and went to greet him.
As soon as Song Qing finished speaking with a smile, Cheng Kai took the teapot into his hands, and then he picked up a pile of teacups from the table.
"King Wuyi, thank you very much, General."
"Fuck you uncle, go drink your tea."
Song Qing listened to Cheng Kai's joking words, pretended to be unhappy and scolded Cheng Kai, then glanced sideways at Liu Song's situation.
When he saw that Liu Song had already poured a cup of tea for Young Master Liu, he sat down again with a smile, picked up the teapot and filled himself a cup of tea.
"Two uncles, seniors, brothers, I won't pour you tea one by one. Let's pass it on ourselves."
"Okay, okay, I can do it myself."
Zhang Kuang chuckled and nodded. After pouring himself a cup of tea, he immediately handed the teapot and remaining tea cups to Nangong Ye, who was sitting on the other side of him.
After a while, all the generals in the study had a cup of steaming tea on their hands.
"Master, tea."
"Put it aside for now."
"yes."
Young Master Liu took a long puff of tobacco from his tobacco bag and glanced at the dozen generals in the study with a faint smile.
"My dear friends."
"I'm waiting here."
Young Master Liu raised his hand to fan the rising smoke in front of his eyes, and looked at Zhang Kuang and Nangong Ye with a smile.
"Two uncles, I told you about the food and fodder matters two days ago. How are your preparations going?"
Crazy and Nangong Ye heard the question that Young Master Liu asked them, and immediately raised their hands and gave Young Master Liu a fist.
"Reporting to your Majesty, after I returned that day, I immediately sent people to deliver golden eagle messages to the main generals stationed in various cities in the Kingdom of Dashi.
The veteran made a rough estimate. From today on, it will be three days at the earliest and six or seven days at the latest. The soldiers escorting the grain and fodder should set off.
After the generals in each department send back letters one after another, I will immediately send someone, uh, personally deliver it to Your Majesty for your review."
"Very good, so good."
Liu Mingzhi responded to Zhang Kuang with a faint smile and turned his attention directly to Nangong Ye.
"Uncle, where are you?"
"Reporting to your Majesty, I have made unified arrangements with Brother Zhang.
However, Your Majesty, you also know that there is a huge distance between the Tianzhu Kingdom that I am responsible for, and the Dashi Kingdom that Brother Zhang is responsible for.
As a result, the generals under the veteran's command are definitely not as fast as Brother Zhang when it comes to food and grass matters.
The veteran made a rough estimate and found that it would take five days at the earliest and about ten days at the latest before the soldiers could escort the supplies and set off.
After the generals in each department reply to the letter, I will immediately send it to Your Majesty for your review."
After listening to Nangong Ye's answer, Liu Mingzhi silently took a long puff of dry smoke, then leaned slightly over the soles of his feet to knock out the ashes and the few remaining shreds of tobacco in the pot.
Immediately, he straightened up and faced Zhang Kuang and Nangong Ye again.
"Two uncles."
"Is the old minister here, Your Majesty?"
"Is the old minister here, Your Majesty?"
Mr. Liu gently rolled the dry tobacco bag in his hand, turned around and walked to the table where Liu Song had put down the tea before. After stopping, he picked up the teacup on the table and put it into his mouth.
"Shhhhhhhhhhh"
Mr. Liu gently blew the tea in the cup a few times, nodded slightly and took a small sip of the hot tea in the cup. He then raised his feet and walked towards Song Qing, Nangong Ye and the others in an insolent manner.
"Two uncles, although the matter of food and grass is very important, it cannot be rushed.
If you do it too hastily, it may backfire.
My young master, I still say what I said before, the matter of escorting food and fodder should be kept as secret as possible.
If you two coaches are urging too hastily, and the soldiers are eager to follow orders, the noise caused by them will definitely not be too small.
If that's the case, then what's the point of talking about secrecy?
Secret, secret, naturally the less people know about it, the more secret it is!
After you two go back today, immediately send someone to pass a letter to the generals in charge of food and grass in the cities in the two countries, Dashi Kingdom and Tianzhu Kingdom.
The two of you told them in the letter that they should not slack off in escorting the food and fodder, but they should not be too hasty.
Master, I will give them one month. Within one month, all the food and fodder must be set off on the road.
Even if the Golden Eagle Letter is delivered to the capital of our Great Dragon Celestial Dynasty, it will only take seven or eight days at the earliest, and only about twenty days at the latest.
Now it is only within the borders of Dashi Country and Tianzhu Country. I will give them one month to prepare for all matters. This is enough.
I am not a man who thinks about things and has no sympathy for the difficulties of soldiers.
After you return, immediately send another letter."
