The sea is calm, showing a gentle and amiable side, but like those ferocious beasts, even when they are wagging their tails, they are alarming.
Huang Pugong has long been accustomed to getting along with this beast, and does not care about being swallowed by it. His eyes crossed the sea and looked at the looming mountains in the distance.
"The front is enemy territory."
Huang Pugong was just talking to himself, forgetting that there was someone behind him.
Luan Kai's face was pale, and he looked sluggish. The longer he went out to sea, the more he hated the endless turbulence. Even when the wind was calm, he could not rest for a moment.
"Then what are you waiting for? Hit him." Luan Kai said weakly, as if anyone could knock him down just by blowing his breath.
Huang Pugong shook his head, "We are too few to fight."
"Fight if you can't." Luan Kai grabbed the side of the boat and retched outside, "At least he can die on the shore."
Huang Pugong smiled, "Don't worry, we'll be docking soon. Have you seen the island? That's our resting place. When the reinforcements from the countries at sea arrive, we may fight."
"Well, will they come? Our emperor is far worse than the one at home."
Huang Pingbu corrected solemnly, "The person on the boat is the King of England, the youngest son of Emperor Wu, not the emperor. There is only one emperor, and he is in the capital of Great Chu."
Luan Kai doesn't care about these differences, "It's useless to tell me, tell him."
Luan Kai raised his finger.
The King of England came out of the cabin, stretched and yawned. He was quite used to life at sea. He could eat and sleep. He used to be a soldier of Huang Pugong. Sleep better and sleep better.
He was wearing a yellow "dragon robe", the dragons were not embroidered, but drawn from a brush, and the brushwork was poor. The dragons looked like a group of clawed worms that were panicked and wanted to escape.
"Ah, it's getting dark again, what are you going to eat tonight?" King Ying walked to Huang Pugong and looked into the distance. After a while, he suddenly showed a surprised smile, "See? Land! Land ahead! We're almost there at last."
Everyone on the boat who heard these words snickered.
Huang Pugong pressed the British King's arm and said, "Let's rest on the island tonight, and make plans after the reinforcements from various countries arrive."
"It's an island again, what's so fun?"
"There may be some things left by fishermen and business travelers in the past."
"It's boring, I've seen it before. Reinforcements are coming soon, I want to land, and they say that the prosperity of the big western cities is not inferior to the capital, and I want to go one by one." The King of England was extremely excited.
The King of England turned his head and glanced at him. There were thirty or fifty ships of various sizes behind him, and they were all brought from Da Chu. "Reinforcements will come, right? I am the emperor, and they all have to obey my will, right?"
Huang Pugong coughed, "This... I'll talk about it when I get to the shore to rest."
The island is a temporary safe haven, and all the ships of the Chu army could not dock, and more than half of them stayed at sea as a precaution. Although the enemy forces destroyed their ships, they should not be careless.
Once he got his feet on the ground, Luan Kai quickly returned to normal, and he was no longer dizzy when he looked at the sea. He could even go fishing and catching shrimp on the shore with King Ying.
The fresh grilled fish was King Ying's dinner. He was very satisfied. After he was full, he said to Luan Kai, "You can be a eunuch for me, and I will make you the superintendent of the middle school, the biggest official."
Luan Kai shook his head vigorously, "Even if you are the real emperor, I'm not right."
King Ying's face sank all of a sudden, "What do you mean? Am I not the real emperor? I have a handwriting left by Emperor Wu, which is covered with the seal of the Great Chu Baoxi. Do you want to read it again?"
Luan Kai still shook his head and said with a smile, "How can I recognize that thing? I believe what Huang Pugong says, and I listen to him."
Huang Pugong sat opposite the King of England and ate without saying a word.
"Huang Pugong, don't you believe me? When you were in Java, you believed it."
In the Java country, Huang Pugong urgently needed a character to convince the king on the shore that this was a real Chu army, so he solemnly launched the British King, the youngest son of Emperor Wu.
For many island countries, Emperor Wu is synonymous with the emperor of Great Chu, and many kings have sent people to pay tribute and recognized the Great Chu Baoxi, so they accepted the Chu army and provided supplies.
The King of England had great ambitions to be an emperor, and he really wrote an edict in the name of the emperor, ordering the countries at sea to send troops to support the Chu army, and to attack the gods and ghosts Danyu together.
The Chu army had already arrived at the appointed place, but there was no shadow of the reinforcements.
Huang Pugong put down the half-eaten grilled fish and said, "I believe you are the King of England."
"Don't you think I'm the emperor? I'm the youngest son of Emperor Wu. When I first seized the throne, the champion Hou died, the Juan Hou and Donghai King violated the rules and lost their qualifications. I am the only one left, and I should be the emperor." King Ying He stood up, pressed his hands on the table, and stared at Huang Pugong closely.
Luan Kai looked at it with a smile, and finally felt that it was interesting to go to sea this time.
Huang Pugong did not change his face, "It's not important, the enemy in front is the big trouble. It is said that after the god and ghost Danyu fled back, he quelled most of the rebellion and assembled a large army. Alas, it's a pity that we came a step later, If it had been half a year earlier, they would have been able to join forces with the Chu army on land..."
"Huang Pugong, don't interrupt, I'll just ask you... I ask you a question, do you accept that I am the emperor?" The King of England was still staring at him.
Huang Pugong was silent for a while, "I am the expedition general personally appointed by the Emperor of Chu."
"I made you a general and prime minister."
Huang Pugong laughed, "Why do you want to be emperor so much?"
"Because I won." The King of England looked at Huang Pugong inexplicably, not understanding why he was puzzled.
"Since the King of England considers himself an emperor, why doesn't he want to return to the palace?"
King Ying was also silent for a while, then sat down and said angrily, "Marquis Tien and King Donghai said they were going to take me out to play, but they forgot about me. Why should I go back to the palace? I want to come out by myself. Play, I don't need them two to take me."
"Your Majesty has not forgotten the King of England, and has been sending people to find your whereabouts." Huang Pugong softened his tone and coaxed the King of England like a child.
The King of England is not short, but his personality is indeed like a child. He replied, "I won't let him find me."
"How did King Ying escape from Yunmengze?" Huang Pugong has always been curious. After asking several times, King Ying refused to say.
"Escaped while the guards were not prepared." The King of England was vague.
"The people in Yunmengze haven't found Emperor Wu's handwriting?" Huang Pugong asked again.
"I hid it well and didn't let them find out." The King of England still refused to reveal the details.
Huang Pugong never believed that the King of England could hide from Yunmengze's robbers, but he did not continue to ask, "The emperor did not win by betting, nor was he self-proclaimed, and needs recognition from others, not just me, but everyone."
"No, the emperor belongs to our Han family. Taizu left the throne to his descendants, and there is no need for others to admit it."
"If that's the case, why don't you recognize the current emperor of Chu?"
"Because Juan Hou cheated, he is not the real emperor!"
"Look, that's it, you think Hou Juan is cheating, and others think your identity is not real. You don't recognize the emperor of Chu, and many people don't recognize you. The throne belongs to your Han family, but there are many Han family descendants, who should be It is possible for an emperor, and even if he becomes an emperor, he may not be able to have all the power, and he has been a puppet for a while when he is today?"
King Ying was silent for a long time before he said, "It was someone who wanted to release me. This handwriting—" King Ying took it out again, "He also gave it to me, I don't know if it's true or not."
Huang Pugong read the handwritten handwriting, which was written in the tone of Emperor Wu to the concubine, asking her to take good care of the emperor's young son and to expand the royal family in the future.
"What's the name of the hopeful?"
"Chun Yu Xiao."
Huang Pugong understood, "He asked you to go to sea with the Chu army?"
"Well, he said that Hou Juan is too powerful and has many minions. I have to avoid its front, establish a foundation overseas, and then fight back. I am the real son of the emperor. When the time comes, I will definitely be able to regain the throne."
The hopeful person knew very well that the handwritten letter could only deceive overseas countries, but not the officials of Great Chu.
Huang Pugong had doubts for a long time, but he didn't care much. As long as it could bring benefits to this Chu army, it didn't matter if he was a little out of line.
"What about the people who want to breathe? Also on the boat?" Huang Pugong asked, never allowing such people to exist in the army.
King Ying's eyes dodged, "Who knows, I haven't seen him since I got on the boat."
"King Ying, those who look for anger have bad intentions. 'Chunyu Xiao' is a pseudonym they often use. This person must not be kept, and must be removed as soon as possible, otherwise, it will become a serious problem in the future."
The King of England was relieved, "So you want to get rid of him, don't bother, he is dead and killed by me."
Huang Pugong was taken aback, and Luan Kai couldn't stop laughing, "Can you kill people? You can't even lift a pen. You don't dare to clean up the fish you caught, and I have to cut it open."
King Ying blushed, "Killing fish and killing people are two different things, and killing people when necessary is completely different from killing people for no reason. If I have to, I can do anything. You think it's hard for me to put a pen to paper, and so do those who are looking forward to it, so yes I took no precautions, and when I stabbed the dagger in, he was sleeping soundly and didn't even open his eyes."
Luan Kai couldn't help laughing, "You don't have the strength, but you have the guts. You kind of people...you will die very quickly in Yunmengze."
"But I survived."
Luan Kai was speechless, but Huang Pugong looked at the British King with admiration, "You killed the Wang Qi person before boarding the ship?"
"Well, I had nowhere to go at that time, and I didn't want to go back to the capital, so I followed the plan made by the hopeful, and signed up for the navy with what he had prepared."
Huang Pugong got up and said, "rest."
"How on earth do you want to admit that I am the emperor?"
"If the world admits it, I will admit it."
"There are so many people in the world..."
Before King Ying could finish speaking, Huang Pugong had already left, and King Ying looked at Luan Kai again. Luan Kai smiled and said, "If Huang Pugong admits it, I will admit it."
The King angrily pushed down the plate on the table.
Early the next morning, King Ying broke into Huang Pugong's tent, laughed loudly and shouted, "Reinforcements are here, there are so many ships, you still say no one recognizes me?"
Huang Pugong got up in a hurry and went outside to check.
The reinforcements did come, and more than a hundred ships were flying with various flags.
Reinforcements from various countries sent envoys ashore, expressing their willingness to fight side by side with the Chu army.
The countries at sea are very afraid of the gods and ghosts, but the gods and ghosts close the ports and destroy the ships, which is equivalent to the end of east-west traffic. contacts, and they quickly become poor.
I heard that the god and ghost Dachan returned from a disastrous defeat in Da Chu, and all the countries had the confidence to follow the Chu army.
The King's joy soon faded, because all the envoys, both verbally and in writing, only called him the King of England or the son of Emperor Wu, and refused to call him "Emperor" and "Your Majesty."
"When I defeat the god and ghost Da Chanyu, someone will admit me." The King of England was not completely discouraged.
