Because I was sick, my wives took really good care of me. However, I spent two days holding the volume of the Book of Changes in my arms and chewing on it, seeming to be a bit exhausted and forgetting to eat. Xiaoyue was unhappy at first:
"Brother, is there anything else in your eyes now? There aren't many of us, but you don't even take a glance at the five of us."
Hua didn't say anything. She just said, "Xiaoyue, don't make trouble. He is studying now. When he studies well, he will benefit from you."
"I still hope that he will give me some benefits. As long as he kicks me less, I will be satisfied." After saying that, he went to talk to Liujiao and stopped causing trouble to me.
Not to mention, the Book of Changes is really profound. I deliberately dug out the hexagrams that King Tian told me and understood them carefully. Although I didn’t fully understand some of the words, I still understood them. I have gained a lot. I looked at the five wives and said to myself, "Just wait until I hold the gun in one hand and the scripture in the other. I will make you docile and submissive. Let's see who is still tired of me."
Is it possible that General Su and General Meng took their wives to go on honeymoon respectively? We have already set out for two days and there is no news from them.
But we were getting closer and closer to the destination. I was injured, and I was a little nervous. I heard Song Kui on the deck of the turtle ship, saying to King Tian and General Ji, "Cavite is ahead."
"What does Cavite mean?" Tian Wang asked
"I don't know what it means, but we have heard the locals call it this way before. This is a port in the country of Lusong. Because this place has steep cliffs along the coast, there are only a few places in Liaoliao that can enter the interior. And this Cavite is particularly important. Usually, Lvsong State sends a lot of people to guard it."
Listening to their lively conversation, I couldn't sit still anymore and struggled to get up to go to the deck. Hua immediately crawled over to help me. I hurriedly said: "No hard work, no hard work, you still need Madam to do such a small thing?"
So he limped one leg and climbed to the deck. Song Kui continued to say, "Of the three small countries in this place, only Donkey Song is the largest. The other two countries only came to Huangyan Island before, and they only fought for each other. Fish, they can only rob the boat, but they take pleasure in harming the lives of people on the boat.”
"Donkey Song people are short in stature, with dark skin and low noses. They mainly make a living by raising donkeys. Whether they are rich depends on how many donkeys they have. They are all related families gathered together in one place. This is a village. , several villages form clans, and the clans form tribes. What we call their king is the leader of the tribe." It seems that Song Kui has a considerable understanding of the customs of Nanyang.
Just as he was talking, a sergeant came to report that a very open bay appeared in front of him, and there were almost no places to dock ships along the coast.
The Cavite that Song Kui mentioned has arrived
"If they can ambush their subordinates on the cliffs on both sides and throw stones from above, it will be difficult for us to get close." On the deck of Tianwang's ship, he raised his head and looked at the steep cliffs on the shore. He turned to General Ji and said : "Get away from this place immediately and walk a hundred steps away from the shore."
General Ji took the order and entered the power cabin. The ship slowly sailed away from the coastal waters. Indeed, close to the shore, it is easy to be attacked from above.
King Tian gathered us together to discuss strategies to deal with the enemy. When he asked for my opinion, I said, "Judging from our experience a few days ago, the people from Donkey Song Kingdom are more difficult to deal with than the people from Panggui Shilan. When we - my wives and I - passed through their village, I noticed that they had invented the plow, but of course it was just a small tree with only one branch left."
"Then why is it so difficult for you to conclude that this is a plow?" General Ji asked
"Because the top of the plow is full of soil and tied to the back of a donkey. This shows that their production capacity is no less than that of our Chinese mainland. You know, the plows we use there are only one step away.
Thousands of years ago, in such an isolated place, I was still surprised when I saw that simple plow."
Tian Wang said, "Tian Zong's words will at least make us pay attention to them and not underestimate the enemy. You must know that we don't bring many people. Even if the people leading the troops make a fatal mistake, many soldiers will be ruined in vain."
life"
I thank Tian Wang for his affirmation of me. His words to me two days ago made me feel my own shallowness and inner ignorance. Before that, I only relied on my own passion and fearless courage.
I'm rushing, I'm eating young capital.
If I say that when I first debuted, I made a little contribution to our escape from the threat of the Liu Gang, it was largely due to chance. The personal cultivation level of Tian Wang is much higher than that of everyone sitting here.
, still has no foothold in the Chinese mainland. Compared with yourself, what else can you show off?
I continued, "Most of the people here regard wild ass as their tribe's idol. What they admire is the flexibility and strength of wild ass. They usually eat more donkey meat, which indeed makes their overall physical fitness higher than that of Panggui Shilan people."
"
"Then how should we deal with them?" Song Kui said
"Judging from the way they treat us fishermen, these people would rather believe in force than in reason. Only by letting them thoroughly feel the strength of the Chinese people can we gain long-term peace for the fishermen."
King Tian was also looking at me. I got encouragement from him and said, "Just now, I suddenly had a plan."
"Let's talk about it," Tian Wang said
"If we want to fight hard, the other party will be willing to give up, but we are reluctant to give up. I think it is better to work hard on this donkey character."
Just as he was talking, a sergeant shouted loudly. In the water we had just left, a piece of rubble was thrown from a high place, like rain, and the water splashed with water ten feet high.
If King Tian had not predicted the enemy first, no matter how strong the deck of our turtle ship was, it would not have been able to withstand this random attack. I couldn’t help but admire King Tian even more.
Looking towards both sides of the bank, the trees on the cliffs were so dense that it was difficult to see where the stones were thrown from. However, there were several mountain apes jumping up and down among the trees, making a shrill sound. Song Kui couldn't help but shudder.
, it was obvious to me that I was a little embarrassed. I patted his shoulder and comforted him, saying, "Don't worry, under normal circumstances, you will be with our king, and at most you will be responsible for some translation. With us here
, I won’t let you charge.”
It seems that our whereabouts have been discovered by the other party. The scene just now can also be said to be a warning or a threat from the other party.
King Tian said to everyone in a deep voice, "I'm going to bed. I want Tian Zong to do all the things below. Young man, don't hang around your wife all day long."
