The Great Seminary

Chapter 103 Guan Qingxia is in big trouble
Gongsun Benxiao was no fool, and he could sense something was amiss in Zhang Gui's words.

Normally, he considered himself to be born into a noble family and to be naturally graceful and generous.

The generals under his command have their own little thoughts, but he never cares about them.

Because except for those saints and great people, there is no one in the world who is not selfish.

Therefore, if you want to achieve great things, you must understand the truth that "when the water is too clear, there will be no fish; when the person is too strict, there will be no followers."

But the problem now is that Gongsun Benxiao asks others to do things instead of the other way around.

His subordinates may have put his interests aside, pursued personal gain, and messed things up.

This is something my uncle can tolerate, but my aunt can’t!
With blood boiling on his face, Gongsun Benxiao secretly gritted his teeth and said:

"Don't worry, Junior Brother Jiujiang. My Gongsun family has always used military law as our family law, and our generals will never dare to act presumptuously.

Let's stick to our planned itinerary and go to Zhihai Town first before we discuss anything else."

"It can only be the.

It would be better if the boat could go faster, otherwise my cousin would be lost in the sea.

Oh, this is also my fault. When I ran into him earlier, I was so busy chatting that I forgot about the important things.

Gongsun Benxiao nodded in agreement and instructed:

"Yang Yi, go and have the sailors set sail at full speed."

A young man who had been following him like a shadow heard this and responded softly:
"Yes."

He took three steps back as light as a willow catkin, turned around and walked silently towards the bottom of the ship.

Zhang Jiujiang couldn't help but say:

"Brother Gongsun, to be honest, every time I see you, your constant companion is always waiting behind me.

But I don’t know why, I always feel like he doesn’t exist.

You had some instructions, only to find him popping up like a ghost.

Is it true that all the close bodyguards of your ancient family have to do this in order not to disturb the master?

Decent and respectable.”

“Hahaha, that’s not the case.

Even in our Gongsun family, there are very few people like Yang Yi." Gongsun Benxiao said with a smile.

At this time, the ship floated up very steadily.

Many huge tentacles that looked like octopus legs inexplicably grew on both sides of the ship close to the sea surface.

Zhang Jiujiang sighed:
"This eight-banded water fish mechanical ship produced by 'Lan Haichuan' is much more stable than the iron turtle mechanical ship of our Pingyang Zhang family.

It is better to travel thousands of miles to read thousands of books.

After leaving Pingyang Town and seeing the vast world, I realized that the things my clan was so proud of were nothing.”

“That’s not the way to say it.

The owners of 'Lan Haichuan' are mysterious. Legend has it that they are three powerful 'Shangjia Daji' men with profound background.

This eight-banded water fish mechanical boat is also one of the top three profitable products for them in the past fifty years.

This also shows the preciousness of mechanical ships.

Therefore, to say that your Pingyang Zhang family's Ironwood Turtle Treasure Ship is nothing is truly too modest."

As Gongsun Benxiao spoke, countless fist-sized holes appeared on the surface of the giant beard growing from the boat building under his feet, and it floated and sprayed out a strong stream of water backwards.

Pushing the eight-banded water fish mechanical boat, he braved the wind and waves and rushed towards Zhihai Town.

But at this time Zhang Gui didn't rush to Zhihai Town at all, but met an acquaintance on the way.

The 'Daohai Gang' flew the 'Shrimp Soldier Boat' under the banner of the 'Alum Chamber of Commerce'.

At this moment, the Shrimp Demon Guan Xihui had red eyes, a haggard face, and a messy beard. He stood at the bow as if he was in a daze.

He kept muttering something in his mouth, appearing dazed.

Because we exchanged glances from afar at sea.

Zhang Gui couldn't just pretend to be deaf and dumb and leave.

More importantly, as a major maritime bandit, the "Daohai Gang" has activities covering most of the sea surface of Siyang County.

There was considerable overlap with the territory affected by Zhang Gui's opening of the port. Since one couldn't tell if Guan Xihui was a friend or foe, one naturally had to find out a little.

So he landed lightly beside Guan Xihui and asked:
"Deputy Gang Leader Guan, what's wrong? It's only been five or six days since we last met, and you look so haggard?"

"Zhang, Commander-in-Chief Zhang, General Yang Longhu, something terrible has happened!

The Cheonje people defeated the Hanli people and unified the entire Xianrong Island.

Now the Yuanshan people's military commander has the final say there, and they are preparing to attack our Ming Song southern border from the sea.

This is Shanzi, the news from Shanzi.

His large ship was sunk by the Qianji people at sea.

It’s all my fault, it’s all my fault!

I think the safest way to sail in the East Inland Sea is to do business with Japan.

Unexpectedly, when we passed by Xianrong Island, we would find out, unexpectedly, oh, I didn’t expect it!
No more, no more!
Anyway, I just came out of your Zhihai Town and came to ask for your help to inform the government's marines that the war is about to begin.

The best strategy is to strike first and gain the upper hand!"

The two major island nations of Hanli and Yingri were the two largest foreign countries granted by the Ming and Song dynasties.

Don’t be fooled by the fact that their rank is exactly the same as that of the Stone Corpse Kingdom of Zhang Gui’s mother’s lineage, both of them are princes.

But their king is a genuine ruler who has been passed down for thousands of years.

It was after Zhao Zhusha, the founding emperor of the Ming and Song dynasties, unified the thirteen provinces that he led his army to the border and won victory after victory before finally conquering the two countries.

The troubles on the southern border were completely eliminated.

It laid the foundation for hundreds of years of prosperity of the Ming and Song dynasties.

But everything has its pros and cons.

After King Han Li surrendered to the Ming and Song dynasties and became a foreign country, although he gained many benefits, strictly speaking, he did not suffer any loss.

However, the fierce mountain people in the territory believed that the king was unworthy of his position by surrendering to foreign enemies, so they rebelled.

Later, King Han Li quickly put down the rebellion.

However, since the mountain people live in deep mountains and wild ridges, it is impossible to wipe them out completely.

Just like the Yin Fire hidden in the forest, a wave will appear from time to time.

After a hundred years of intermittent fighting, the mountain people and the plain people gradually accumulated a deep blood feud.

She no longer admitted that she was a Han Liren, but called herself a Qianjiren, which means "sunlight gathers together, thousands of rays of fire gather together."

Using fire to control things has been a practice among islanders since ancient times.

The Han Li people called themselves "giant wooden boat people" because their ancestors first built their country by building wooden boats and shooting fish.

But although the wish is beautiful, the reality is cruel.

From the beginning to the end of the Han-Li civil war, the mountain people were always the oppressed party, and the same was true for the Qianji people.

Until the last two or three decades, a group of mountain infantry from Baiyang Borqin, a vassal state of Wonsan, claimed that their ancestors were descendants of the Cheonje people.

The "Guizong Army" went to Xianrong Island to support the Cheonji people.

Qianji talents finally gained a foothold and began to establish rules and regulations.

Set up "Left General" to control military power;

"Zuo Ping" is in charge of the nobles' meeting;

The promulgation of the "ban" established an official system based on the so-called left and right groups in front of the palace.

But in fact, everyone knows that these people are puppets of the so-called "Guizong Army".

Zhang Gui's eyes widened when he heard this. He didn't care that Lao Guan was confused and asked according to his own understanding:
"Han Liren has unified the entire Xianrong Island!

The Han Li people fought against the Cheonje people for hundreds of years and were said to have the upper hand.

The Guizong Army came, but it only barely helped the Qianji people gain a foothold.

How did we win so quickly?
Could it be that the Yuanshan people were personally in charge of the operation?

You said that the news was brought by Sanzi, but it was Li San who was coerced by me earlier and forced you to surrender.

Is he really your boss, Zhang Yan's son?"
