Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 1769
Of course Xiao Cuo had his own plans.

He has been displeased with Wang Qi for a long time. How can he be worthy of his own daughter, just a worthless playboy whose family is ruined?Even if Fang Junna and other talents took their daughter as a concubine, it was only reluctantly. If they married as a regular wife, then they would be considered a good match.

Wanting to find a substitute, Wang Qi and Xie Wenhua chose one, Xiao Cuo chose Wang Qi without hesitation...

It's one thing for me to be able to get rid of Wang Qi, the thorn in my daughter's eyes, and it's also one thing for Xie Wenhua's timid, superficial, arrogant and clever personality.

Seeing Xie Wenhua's expression, Xiao Cuo knew that he had understood why he strangled Wang Qi to death, so he said: "I have already interceded with Fang Jun, and he will not intervene in this matter, but after returning to Jiangnan, he will testify to me. Wang Qi colluded with the pirates, intending to embezzle huge sums of money."

When Xie Wenhua heard that Xiao Cuo had made it clear to Fang Jun, he became more and more silent.

Xiao Cuo's boat can be boarded by himself, or not, otherwise Xiao Cuo may simply kill himself in the next moment...

Hastily said: "Everything that Uncle Shi said is true, and I can also testify to Uncle Shi."

Xiao Cuo looked stern, and said: "It's not to testify against someone, but the two of us testify against Wang Qi together."

How dare Xie Wenhua refute?

"What Uncle Shi said, I will do as I do."

Xiao Cuo nodded in satisfaction and said, "Very good."

He stepped forward to untie the rope from Xie Wenhua's hand, and said, "If you want to take a boat with someone, then go and throw Wang Qi's body into the sea right now."

When Xie Wenhua heard this, his face became bitter.

This is to accept a "nomination certificate" for myself. Even if I regret it in the future, as long as Xiao wrongly says that Xie Wenhua is also an accomplice in the murder of Wang Qi, it will be considered ruined...

But the matter has come to this, how dare to refuse?
I'm afraid that if I say no, the next moment I will end up like Wang Qi...

Resisting is definitely not daring to resist, even if you refuse, then you can only work with Xiao Cuo, as long as you don't die anyway.

Immediately, he struggled to get Wang Qi's body out of the cabin, lowered his head and did not dare to look at Wang Qi's ferocious face, dragged him to the side of the ship with trembling heart, and pushed it into the sea with all his strength.

With a sound of "plop", Xie Wenhua dared to lie down on the side of the ship and looked at it. Wang Qi's body had already sunk into the sea, and then he returned to the cabin in fear.

Xiao Cuo patted him on the shoulder, and praised him: "Well done! If you are a man, you have to be decisive and ruthless, so that you will have a future! If it weren't for the fact that my daughter was going to marry Fang Jun as a concubine, she would have married her Thank you for your family, I will be married to you."

Xie Wenhua laughed uglier than crying: "Thank you, Uncle Shi, for your kindness, I will never dare to be..."

Xiao Cuo smiled with satisfaction.

The Xie family in Chen Jun was also the top family in the south of the Yangtze River. Although these years have fallen a lot and have long since lost their original glory, they are still much stronger than the Wang family in Langya who has sunk to the bottom of the valley. In addition, most of the Xie family have married with various ethnic groups in the south of the Yangtze River. , and the right to speak is stronger than Wang's, and pulling it to his side will become more and more stable.

Xiao Shi and Xie Shi both confirmed Wang Qi's crime of colluding with pirates, who dare not believe it?
But in a blink of an eye, Xiao Cuo's relieved expression subsided and changed into another sad expression.

There is an explanation for the Jiangnan gentry, but Fang Jun is in the hands of this matter before and after, but it is another hidden danger...

Thinking of Fang Jun's cruel methods, Xiao Cuo couldn't help but sigh.

It's really unlucky to be out of the wolf's den and into the tiger's mouth...

*****
The navy won a complete victory in this battle, and the fleet of the Jiangnan gentry was almost completely captured without damage.

This is smuggled stolen goods, and naturally there is no need to return it after the navy has confiscated it. If the Jiangnan gentry want to go back, they can only buy it with money.

Fang Jun plans to hold an "auction" in Huating Town to auction off all these goods.

Su Dingfang doesn't care about money, what he cares about is the "incendiary bomb" used to attack pirates this time...

"Master Hou, these incendiary bombs are really magical weapons for siege and plunder. If you encounter a fortified city, it is not easy to attack by force. You can use artillery to drive the incendiary bombs into the city. At that time, I am afraid that it will not cost a single soldier. It will be burned to nothingness, and when the enemy army is gone, the army will be dispatched, and it will be effortless to occupy the city."

As a commander, the first thing that comes to mind is naturally how to improve combat power, and try to reduce the casualties of soldiers and the loss of materials while achieving victory.

Fang Jun did not express optimism: "Not necessarily. Although this incendiary bomb is powerful, it also has many disadvantages. Needless to say, it is afraid of water and tide, and it is also difficult to transport. The iron shell is wrapped with gunpowder and kerosene. The performance of soaked sundries is very unstable, and it is very easy to explode due to collision. It is better for our fleet to use it at sea. If it is transported on land, it is easy to blow itself into the sky under the bumps of the vehicle... and once the fire oil is immersed If the gunpowder is wetted so that the gunpowder will not explode, it will be a smoking iron bullet, and its power will be greatly reduced.”

After all, the performance of gunpowder is still not up to standard.

However, improving the performance of gunpowder is really difficult for him, the second chemical knife, and he can only rely on the craftsmen to work hard in the future and gradually improve it.

But in the Tang Dynasty, where chemical knowledge was scarce, it was an impossible task to improve the performance of gunpowder...

It is a long and arduous journey from the invention of hot weapons to the use of hot weapons, and then to the complete elimination of cold weapons.

But as long as you walk on the right path, you will eventually reach your destination of success...

While Fang Jun was talking, he had already written the memorial to the emperor, put it in the envelope and sealed it with fire wax, and then, while the heat had not solidified, he poked it with his own seal, so that after the fire wax was fixed, it would Form your own seal, if others want to peek at it, they will definitely damage the integrity of the seal and leave traces.

Together with another sealed letter, I handed it to Wang Xuance, and said: "Give one to Pei Xingjian, and order him to dispose of the seized smuggled goods according to the letter, and order one to send his confidants through the post station to quickly Send it to Chang'an, and send it to the palace for His Majesty to review."

Wang Xuance stood up and took the letter, and replied: "Don't worry, Lord Hou, you must be careful in your humble position."

The pirates have been wiped out, and the army will set off to the north early tomorrow morning. Wang Xuance escorts the captured merchant ships back to Huating Town, while Fang Jun leads the navy to continue northwards to meet another part of the warships that were stranded in Koguryo waters before, and then...

"I don't know if there is any news from the Ainu people?"

Fang Jun stood up and looked at the huge chart hanging on the wall, frowning.

Su Dingfang and Liu Renyuan got up one after another and stood on both sides of Fang Jun. Su Dingfang looked at the small island circled by Fang Jun with a red pen on the sea chart, and said puzzledly: "It's just a small island like a projectile, go directly to occupy it That is, why is it necessary to go through the hands of the Ainu people, so much trouble?"

Fang Jun shook his head and said with a smile: "If the name is not right, then the words will not go well, and if the words don't go well, things will fail. Therefore, a gentleman's name must be said, and his words must be done. A gentleman has nothing to do with his words. Let us After all, it is a kingdom of heaven, and it is different from those barbarians who don't know etiquette. Everything must be done in a fair and orderly manner, so that we can not lose our reputation as a magnificent China. We can do anything unscrupulously, but it is best to find A perfect excuse to keep things from falling through."

Does it mean that the whole world knows the truth of "righteousness and integrity"? Many major events in various countries in history, no matter how evil, unreasonable, or rampant, they will actually find a perfect excuse to cover up their barbaric acts in advance.

For example, the "Pr.

In short, before all evil wars break out, they will find a seemingly controversial excuse for themselves.

And the Ainu people are a nail that Fang Jun has planted long ago to deal with the Japanese country, and a knife of Fang Jun.

Su Dingfang understands what Fang Jun said, but he has never put the Japanese country in his eyes, thinking that to deal with such a small country, it depends on strength to crush it, so why bother to find any excuses?In the past, the Central Plains Dynasty never cared about such a barren mountainous area of ​​the Wa Kingdom, and it was impossible to go to war for it, otherwise, even if the Chinese army set foot on the island of the Wa Kingdom, would a self-proclaimed shit "emperor" dare to bark his teeth?
But he sincerely believed in Fang Jun. If Fang Jun wanted to find an excuse, he should find one. If he couldn’t find it, then he would make an excuse. It’s not difficult anyway...

He was just a little puzzled, why Fang Jun was so interested in such a small island that was isolated from the mainland of Japan?

Asked several times, Fang Jun always hummed and used secrets as an excuse, and always refused to explain clearly...

Su Dingfang secretly slandered, could there be a golden mountain on that tiny island?
