Tang Dynasty: The poisonous scholar in the Eastern Palace, please abdicate and let the wise one take

Chapter 482 Arrival in Japan

Three days later.

Wing On Wharf.

Li Jingheng and others were already waiting here in military uniforms.

After seeing the carriage passing by the palace, Li Jingheng and others went to greet it.

"You came quite early."

Su Chen got off the carriage, looked at Li Jingheng and the others in military uniforms and said with a smile, "Are you so impatient?"

"nature."

Li Jingheng and others nodded.

He seeks fame and fortune on horseback, he is truly a heroic man.

They are all second-generation military men, so naturally they are unwilling to give up such a great opportunity to earn fame.

How could it be possible without being conscious and a little eager?
"Are you all ready?"

"Everything is ready!"

"Okay then, get on board!"

Su Chen didn't waste any words. He waved his hand and led everyone directly onto the warship.

Although I went to the Protectorate of Japan this time to meet up with Su Dingfang and his men, I also delivered some supplies to them.

As for what kind of supplies it is, that's obvious.

Apart from weapons and ammunition, what else do they lack in Japan?

As the warships set sail, many familiar figures appeared among the crowd of onlookers.

"Sister Xueyan."

"Sister Xu Hui."

Li Xueyan smiled and nodded, "I knew you would come."

Xu Hui smiled and said, "Brother Su, don't you allow Sister Xueyan to see you off?"

Li Xueyan smiled and said, "Maybe you don't want to see my romantic relationship and are reluctant to leave."

"My sister appears now, so I guess that's the case, right?"

Xu Hui nodded.

She learned the news when Su Chen agreed to join the army to go to Goryeo.

She also wanted to see Su Chen off, but Su Chen disagreed.

Yes.

In Xu Hui's opinion, Su Chen probably didn't want to see her reluctant look, otherwise Li Xueyan would not have hidden in the crowd like her.

Perhaps because of the saying that birds of a feather flock together, not many people came to see him off this time.

Most of them are relatives of each family, or curious onlookers.

"Brother Su should be fine when he goes to Goryeo this time."

Xu Hui said softly: "I believe in Brother Su, just like he did in the Western Regions before."

Li Xueyan smiled and said, "It will be fine."

"They've gone far away. Let's go back too. It's a good opportunity to chat with my sister."

……

There were dozens of warships in total.

The reason why there are so many is, firstly, because there are a lot of supplies to be brought over this time, and secondly, because they are also carrying two thousand elite troops.

Although Japan has been opened up and became the East Japan Protectorate of the Tang Dynasty, no one can predict what kind of storms will appear on the sea.

Moreover, the two thousand elite soldiers led this time all obey Su Chen's orders, and Su Chen is responsible for the full command.

As for the loss of thinking power, it doesn’t matter.

After the exchange at the palace three days ago, Zhishisili left with a smile on his face.

The reason why he was smiling was because Su Chen gave him great convenience.

As everyone knows, Su Chen is a favorite of His Majesty, and Zhishi Sili should take him seriously to avoid unpleasantness between the two sides, which would be detrimental to the war.

Secondly, Su Chen asked for two thousand elite soldiers. As for his safety and the use of these elite soldiers, there is no need to report to Zhishi Sili.

in other words.

Zhishishili can lead an army of 100,000 from Dengzhou and Yingzhou and attack Goryeo directly. Whether it is war, siege or whatever, it is all up to Zhishishili to decide, and Su Chen will definitely not interfere.

For a head coach, what could be more free than this?

As for the two thousand elite soldiers that Su Chen asked for, and what Su Chen wanted to do, that was Su Chen's decision, and it had nothing to do with him.

If Su Chen could really lead these two thousand elite soldiers to directly capture Goryeo, he would not be angry, but would applaud instead!

The coach is on board.

Su Chen looked at the houses and trees slowly receding on both sides of the river and shook his head secretly.

After all, since it relies on manpower and wind power, the speed of the ship is still slow. However, once Feng Baojun has dealt with the train issue, there will be time to arrange the installation of the steam engine on the warship.

By then, the speed of the warship will be greatly improved.

The combat effectiveness of the navy will directly reach a height that the navies of other countries cannot reach.

"Your Majesty."

Sun Qiang walked in from outside, holding a plate of fruit.

Su Chen said casually: "According to the speed of the building ship, how long will it take us to enter the sea?"

Sun Qiang: "If nothing unexpected happens, two days will be enough to reach the sea, and it will only take three to five days to reach the Dongying Protectorate."

"After all, the building ship is a large naval vessel. When traveling in the river, its speed is somewhat limited, but it will be much better after entering the sea."

Su Chen nodded, "How are Li Jingheng and the others doing?"

Sun Qiang smiled and said, "They are in pretty good condition, but Captain Cheng is a little bit off."

Su Chen: "It shouldn't be."

As the son of a duke, Cheng Chumo must have had experience of sailing on a ship. Why was he not in good condition?

Sun Qiang smiled and said, "I specially arranged for someone to go over and ask him. It is said that Captain Cheng rarely takes a boat trip and is not a good swimmer, so he was not in good condition after being on the boat."

"I guess the condition will be much better when we get to the surface of the sea."

Su Chen: “???”

His condition was not good on the river, so how come he was in much better condition on the sea?
Sun Qiang grinned and said, "Once he gets seasick, he'll feel better." Su Chen laughed in silence.

If you put it that way, it makes sense?

after all.

After you faint, there won't be anything wrong with you, just fall asleep.

as predicted.

After the fleet successfully entered the sea, good news came that Cheng Chumo was seasick. However, in just one hour, Cheng Chumo went from dizziness, to weakness, vomiting, and then fainting.

The efficiency is astonishing.

Fortunately, there were many doctors in Su Chen's fleet, and they were able to deal with Cheng Chumo's symptoms.

After giving Cheng Chumo seasickness medicine on time every day, he was left to rest on his own.

Eight days later.

Off the coast of Japan.

Su Chen and others on the ship could already clearly see some houses and trees on Kyushu Island.

"Brother Su, are we going to land from Kyushu Island or go to Naniwazu?"

"Of course we have to go to Naniwazu."

Su Chen smiled and said, "This is the largest port in Japan. Now that we are here, we must go and take a look."

Naniwazu is not only the largest port in Japan, but also a must-pass place for many ships. Many ships going out to sea will replenish some supplies here.

Now that they have entered the territory of Japan, they naturally have to go to Naniwazu.

and.

After the fleet arrived at Naniwa Port, they were not far from the Toyo Protectorate where Su Dingfang was.

The fleet sailed slowly towards Naniwazu. Along the way, there were quite a few cargo ships coming in and out.

As the weather gets warmer, the number of ships going out to sea has increased significantly.

Many of them were flying the flags of the Tang Dynasty, and many were flying the flags of Silla, Baekje and other countries.

However, when faced with the warship fleet where Su Chen and others were, these cargo ships all gave way.

They didn't dare to challenge such a large fleet of warships.

Nanbajin.

Liu Rengui, Xue Yuanchao and others were already waiting at the port.

When they saw the fleet approaching, smiles appeared on the faces of Liu Rengui and others.

"coming."

"The prince is here."

The boat slowly docked, and Su Chen and others came onto the deck.

Li Jingheng smiled and said, "There are quite a few people coming to welcome the prince."

Li Chongyi: "Of course not. The prince is not only here to deliver supplies to them, but he is also the commander-in-chief responsible for pacifying Goryeo."

Su Chen waved his hand.

What's the matter with being a commander-in-chief? He has no interest in leading troops, let alone the ability to command and mobilize large troops.

All he could do was to cause trouble with a group of people.

"Your subordinates Liu Rengui and Xue Yuanchao come to see His Majesty with your colleagues."

"Excuse me."

Su Chen led everyone down and waved with a smile to Liu Rengui and others who were bowing.

Liu Rengui smiled and said, "The Grand Commander has already hosted a banquet for His Majesty at the Protectorate to welcome him. Please follow us to the Protectorate."

"Good work."

Su Chen smiled and nodded, walking side by side with Liu Rengui and others.

"Xue Yuanchao, how are you doing here?"

"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. It's pretty good here."

Xue Yuanchao smiled.

Su Chen glanced at Xue Yuanchao. This guy had performed very well when he was tested by the Ministry of Personnel, and was retained by Li Chengqian to work in Chang'an.

But after Japan was conquered and renamed the Protectorate of East Japan, Xue Yuanchao took the initiative to volunteer to come here to take up the post.

Su Chen could roughly guess Xue Yuanchao's thoughts.

after all.

Most of the official positions in Chang'an City have been fixed and have people in charge.

Unless someone abdicates or does a poor job, a new candidate will take the position. If Xue Yuanchao wants to take the position, he naturally needs to accumulate experience.

But when you come to the Protectorate of Japan, things are different.

Everything here is new, and all positions require people.

With Xue Yuanchao's talent, he would naturally not be an ordinary official when he came to the Protectorate of Japan.

"Are there still traitors in Japan?"

"Gone."

Liu Rengui smiled and said, "After Kamimono Katana and others were captured, the entire East Japan will be under the jurisdiction of the Protectorate."

"During this period, we are busy with the construction of the Protectorate and arrangements for the people of Japan."

"There were some troublemakers during this period, but they were quickly suppressed by the Grand Commander."

Su Chen nodded in satisfaction, "Those who are not of my race must have different hearts. If they are obedient, we will make the best use of their resources and talents. If they are disobedient, there is no need to keep them."

Liu Rengui was naturally not surprised by Su Chen's attitude.

This is a ruthless guy who used the wheel-chopping method on the grassland. If the Japanese people don't obey, won't he just chop them up at will?

Liu Rengui: "Your Majesty is right."

"Have you received the message from His Majesty?"

"Your Highness, I received it a few days ago, and the Grand Commander has also arranged personnel."

Liu Rengui smiled and said, "I will follow the prince and lead the troops to Goryeo!"
