My father Zhu Gaoxu

Chapter 731 The Confrontation between the Imperial Guards
The blue waves were rippling on the sea, and Zhu Zhanhe was sitting under the umbrella on the bow of the boat. Next to him, Helen peeled a grape and fed it to his mouth.

"The scenery on the seaside is really nice. No wonder you Venetians have always lived on the seaside."

Zhu Zhanhe tasted the sweet grapes and squinted his eyes in admiration.

The beach here in Beizheng Port is good. Sometimes he wants to build a beach villa here and live here forever.

"Of course, the sea in Venice is very beautiful. I grew up on the seaside. What I like most is walking barefoot on the beach."

When Helen mentioned her hometown, she couldn't help but sigh. She had accepted the reality and it would be impossible to go back in a short time.

"Zhang Zhong and Zhu Yong are about to send troops. The first stop will be Adan. After taking it, Egypt will be next!"

Zhu Zhanhe also said to himself again at this time.

There is also news from Mufas that their troops are also gathering. After the big man captures Adan, it is estimated that they can also send troops. At that time, both sides will attack Cairo in Egypt from the south to the north, giving Ma Muluke attacked from both sides.

"Your Highness, when will the steamships we have at our feet be built on a large scale?"

Helen suddenly asked Zhu Zhanhe curiously.

They were still riding the paddle steamer. After Zhu Zhanhe, Zhang Zhong, and Zhu Yong took it last time, they found it unsatisfying, so they took the time to take it out to sea from time to time, and at the same time, they could experience its performance first-hand.

"What do you ask for this?"

Zhu Zhanhe asked a little strangely.

"I'm thinking that if the canal is dug in the future, His Highness will form a fleet of steamships and escort me back in a mighty way, it will definitely cause a sensation throughout Europe!"

Helen was a little excited at the end. The Venetian princess who had been missing for many years was escorted home by a powerful fleet sent by an overseas prince. Just thinking about this made her full of girly heart intoxicated.

"This is a good idea. Maybe I will actually send a powerful fleet to escort you back in the future!"

Zhu Zhanhe smiled slightly, but there was something inexplicable in his smile.

The navy of the Han Dynasty will not be dispatched easily. For example, like this time, Zhang Zhong led the navy to dispatch at least two ports. If the navy of the Han Dynasty arrives in Europe, the sensation will be sure, but for some rulers in Europe To be honest, I'm afraid it's more about fear. After all, Zhu Zhanhe is not a pacifist.

How could the naive Helen have imagined that Zhu Zhanhe would have so many calculations in his heart?She is now immersed in the legend that she has been wandering overseas for many years and finally returned to her hometown. If she can bring another handsome prince back, that will be even more complete!

Thinking of this, Helen secretly glanced at Zhu Zhanhe, who was looking sideways at the sea. The setting sun reflected on his face, seeming to cast a layer of radiance over his whole body.

This made Helen feel her little heart beating continuously, and her little face turned red.

It was getting late, and the paddle steamer returned to the port again. Zhu Zhanhe took Helen off the ship, and then returned to his residence. Because he often came to Beizheng Port, he had a fixed residence here. He usually had any official business, It will also be dealt with here.

As soon as Zhu Zhanhe returned to his residence, someone immediately reported to him that Liu Ke had been waiting for him for a long time.

So Zhu Zhanhe came to the study alone, and then someone called Liu Ke.

After a while, Liu Ke quickly walked into the study and reported: "Your Highness, our people found some suspicious people outside the Shenji Camp!"

"Oh? Can you confirm the other party's identity?"

Zhu Zhanhe raised his eyebrows and immediately asked with a murderous tone.Zhu Yong is training in the Shenji Camp, and he will send troops overseas soon. It is a top priority and must not make any mistakes. Therefore, Zhu Zhanhe will never be soft on those who dare to covet the Shenji Camp.

"The other parties are all Han Chinese, and they are probably spies sent by the Ming Dynasty. In addition to spying on Shenji Camp, they also sent people to visit the firearms workshop, so I suspect they may have heard something and want to investigate our firearms workshop! "

Liu Ke replied again.

The firearms workshop was a top secret of the Han Dynasty. In addition to the troops stationed for protection, there were also hidden sentries of Jin Yiwei around it. Therefore, the spies of the Ming Dynasty thought that what they were doing was very secretive, but they did not know that their every move had been watched by the Han Dynasty's colleagues. In the eyes.

"It turns out that the royal guards of the Ming Dynasty came to visit!"

Zhu Zhanhe relaxed after hearing this. After all, the Jin Yiwei of the Ming Dynasty appeared in Beizheng Port, probably just to inquire about information, and there was no need to worry that they would ruin his plan to send troops.

"Your Highness, what should we do next? Do you want us to get rid of all these people?"

Liu Ke finally asked murderously.

Although he was also a member of the Jinyi Guards of the Ming Dynasty, he now has his own master, so don't blame Liu Ke for being ruthless.

"No, didn't you say that when they got close to the firearms workshop, you asked people to keep an eye on them to see what their plans were?"

Zhu Zhanhe smiled slightly.

Zhu Zhanji finally made some progress and knew how to take the initiative to send Jin Yiwei to the Han Dynasty to investigate the situation, but his actions were still too slow. If Zhu Zhanhe were him, I am afraid that when the Han Dynasty immigrated, he would have planted some spies in the Han Dynasty. , every move in the country of the Han Dynasty cannot escape the surveillance of the Ming Dynasty.

"Subordinates obey!"

Liu Ke agreed, but did not leave. Instead, he reported again: "In addition, there is news from Jiaozhi that Li Song will soon dominate Jiaozhi!"

"That Li Shan is too useless. Fortunately, he is still Li Li's younger brother. If Li Li is still alive, he will definitely not lose to Li Song so quickly!"

Zhu Zhanhe couldn't help but sighed after hearing this.

The unification of Jiaozhi was too fast, which was not in the interests of the Han Dynasty. In Zhu Zhanhe's vision, it was best to let Jiaozhi remain unification for decades, so that the Han Dynasty could have time to control the economic lifeline of Jiaozhi little by little.

"Li Song is quite loyal to us big men and is willing to cooperate with us. For example, Li Song contributed a lot to the recruitment of Wang Tong last time."

Liu Ke still had a good impression of Li Song, after all, he was the one who recruited him personally.

"Now Li Song needs our support, so he naturally wants to cooperate with us, but if he unifies Jiaozhi, it may be difficult to control."

Zhu Zhanhe shook his head. A person who can rise from troubled times will never be willing to become a puppet controlled by others.

"Then what should we do now? Should we turn around and support Li Shan, hoping that he can support him for a while longer?"

Liu Ke asked again.

"No! Li Shan is in a losing situation. Instead of supporting him, it is better to quietly contact the people around Li Song!"

Zhu Zhanhe said calmly that although it was disgraceful to do so, sometimes one has to do whatever it takes to achieve the goal.
