Su Mo'er said: "Your Highness, His Majesty's courier has arrived, and informed His Highness that His Majesty is going to Yizhou to escape the summer heat. It is said that Empress Changsun, Concubine Yang and many other concubines will also come together, and some princes and princesses, let Your Highness come here in advance. get ready."

"What! There are so many people here!" Li Yin's head grew big in an instant. He knew that Li Shimin liked to go out to escape the summer heat every summer, but he didn't expect to choose Yizhou this year. However, this also shows that Li Shimin loves him. , otherwise I would not give up my previous summer resort and come all the way to Yizhou, and another reason is probably that Li Shimin is still in a bad mood because of Li Chengqian's affairs, so I want to relax here, after all, there are all kinds of fun things in Yizhou Under Li Yuanchang's deliberate propaganda, it has spread in Chang'an. It is impossible for Li Shimin not to know these things.

"That's what you said. However, when do you plan to come back, Your Highness? Your Majesty will arrive in Yizhou in about half a month. Before that, we have to make some preparations. There is no room for so many people to live in the former palace." Su Mo'er said worriedly.

Li Yin thought for a while and said: "If it's not possible, let them live in the palace. Anyway, there are many houses in the palace, and no matter how many people there are, it is enough. Give the biggest yard to the emperor, and clean up the other small yards." Come out to the concubines and princes and princesses, I still have some things to do, and it is estimated that I will be able to return to Yizhou in about ten days."

Su Mo'er in Yizhou was relieved when she heard the words, as long as Li Min can come back before Li Shimin arrives, otherwise she and Cui Yingying really don't know how to receive Li Shimin, and said: "Well, let me talk to the princess, let the palace Clean up."

Li Yin said something again, and Su Morer ended the call. Looking at the flashing radio station in front of her, she was filled with emotion. This radio station is really a legendary voice transmission. In Yizhou, she can contact Li Yin, who is thousands of miles away, and Li Yin can also control Yizhou at any time. Case. Issue various orders.

The call was cut off, and Li Yin returned to the barracks. Since this is the case, the blackmail operation must be carried out as soon as possible, and it can't be three days later, and Sun Dongxu is brought here. Li Yin set the time to set off tomorrow, so that three or four days would be enough to settle the matter, and he would be able to return to Yizhou in another three or four days.

After explaining this matter, Li Min went to find Li Ran, with the help of Li Ran. The radio station in Jin Daqian's Fuzhong was successfully connected, and they were receiving training when Li Yin arrived.

"Your Highness!" Seeing Li Yin approaching, Li Ran said.

Li Yin pulled him aside, told him about his plan to go to the country of Wa, and told him that after the cargo ship from Yizhou arrived, he would be in charge of transporting the machinery on board to Jin Daqian, and began to give them operational training. Li Yin had already shipped all kinds of machinery when he was in Zhouzhou, and it is estimated that it will arrive in a few days. It was also because of this that he planned to keep Li Ran on the Ryukyu Island and not let him participate in this matter.

After listening to Li Yin's words, Li Ran nodded to express her understanding.

The next day, the Ryukyu Yizhou Navy assembled again. In addition to the Navy, the Marine Corps also went to a lot of people this time, in order to put more pressure on the Wa Kingdom and let them hand over the silver honestly, otherwise Li Yin would not have to go to the Wa Kingdom to arrest the Emperor .

"Your Highness, the interrogation lasted all night. We have found the best place to attack."

The army assembled, and the chimneys of more than 30 warships were braving the night at the same time. In the sound of whistles of different severity, the Yizhou Navy Fleet slowly left the treasure ship port. Facing the blue sea forward.

"Did Suga Ezo say any useful information?" Li Yin asked Sun Dongxu who was speaking.

Su Dongxu said: "From his mouth, we learned that the Suwo family's navy used to be stationed in a place called Nazhijin, and the name of that port was Hakata. The Japanese sent Tang envoys to go to sea from this place, and the port's Opposite is the stronghold of Wa Kingdom in Baekje, the location is very important.

... "Nanotsu?" Li Yin thought for a while, isn't this the modern Japanese Fukuoka? If so, then this port is indeed as Sun Dongxu said, the location is very important, it can not only contain the Wa country, but also deal with Baekje, Silla and Goguryeo on the Korean peninsula. "Then attack from this place!"

"Yes, Your Highness!" Sun Dongxu called Wang Shijie over and let him enter the cockpit to lead the way. If you don't know the route in the vast sea, it will take a lot of effort to find it. Moreover, Wang Shijie is also proficient in the Japanese language. Maybe he can then It comes in handy, although many Japanese nobles know Chinese, but some lower class people still don't understand it.

Going forward to the Wa Kingdom with all our strength, Sun Dongxu ordered the steamship to open to the maximum speed, but even so, it took more than two days for more than a thousand kilometers.

"Your Highness, Nazhitsu is ahead, and Hakata is the opposite port." Wang Shijie said respectfully, he is now serving Li Yin wholeheartedly, and the strength of the Yizhou Fleet made him dare not have any delusions.

Li Yin nodded. There are many ships of different sizes moored in the irregular arc-shaped harbor ahead. There is an endless flow of Japanese people on the pier. There are soldiers in armor patrolling back and forth on the pier. Residents are buildings, and the model is somewhat similar to the buildings of the Tang Dynasty.

In the vicinity of the fleet, Japanese people wearing three-cornered hats and kimonos floated by on the ships passing by. Standing on the ships, they all looked at this huge fleet with amazed eyes, especially the ten huge treasure ships. , many people were pointing at the fleet, gesticulating and rowing, saying words that Li Yin could not understand.

"Set up a battle formation!" Stopping at a position 500 meters away from the port, Sun Dongxu ordered the fleet to aim its guns at the military buildings in the port, and then he walked over and said, "Your Highness, everything is ready."

Li Yin has been standing at the bow of the ship observing the situation in the port. The prosperity of Hakata Port surpasses his resemblance, and even surpasses Jiangling Wharf. However, this Hakata Port is a seaport, and it should be taken for granted. Hearing Sun Dongxu's words, Li Yin turned sideways To Wang Shijie: "Are you sure this is the fiefdom of the Suwo family?"

Wang Shijie patted his chest and assured: "Your Highness, you can't be wrong, this is indeed the fiefdom of the Suwo family."

Li Yin nodded, "Bring Suga Ezo up here, and ask him to write a letter to his family, and ask him to find someone from Wa to send to the family."

"Yes!" Sun Dongxu replied, and Suga Ezo was brought up from the cabin after a while, and when he looked at the familiar Hakata Port, he showed a wry smile.

"Let's write!" Bringing a pen, ink, paper and inkstone, Sun Dongxu said to Suga Ezo. Looking at the blank paper in front of him, Su Wo said, "His Royal Highness Shu, you are really embarrassing Su Wo's family. The Japanese country now uses copper coins imported from the Tang Dynasty, and gold and silver are not circulated in the country at all. How could it be possible to get five million two and a half in one hour?"

"That's okay, I'll send you back as soon as I get it all together. Didn't you say that there are a lot of gold and silver mines under the name of my Su family? It doesn't matter if there is less silver. You can use gold instead, but ten taels of gold can only cover the gold and silver mines." One tael of silver." Li Yin said that he was also a little messy at this time, and he really couldn't afford to be hurt in this era when silver was more expensive than gold.

Su Wo still hesitated, Li Yin glanced at him and said: "Su Wo, this may not be a lucky day for your Su Wo family, don't think that I believe all the nonsense you said, your father Su My son died a long time ago, and now you are the left minister of the Wa Kingdom, and your son Su Wo also has power when he enters the deer, and now the eldest son of Emperor Shu Ming, Brother Zhong, is uniting with nobles from all over the world to try to drive your Su Wo family to extinction, so you are like this I'm eager to get this king's cannon, am I right?"

"You...you... how is it possible!" Su Wo was surprised, how could he know so much about Su Wo's family, even Wang Shijie didn't know this information.

Su Wo's expression also made Li Yin feel relieved. It seems that he guessed right by combining the history and the information provided by Wang Shijie, "This king doesn't care who is the ruler. What this king wants is very simple, that is gold and silver." And copper mines, these three things, you have a lot of mines in Japan, this king is willing to help you stabilize your rule, but you also have to give this king what he thinks of!"
