Chapter 567: Clam and Crane Fight (7)

Chen Yuan still needs to continue to do some preparations.

In his original plan, sending troops was at least a year later, because if the battle continued according to the current situation, it would be impossible for the Japanese and the people of Japan to decide the outcome within a year, so he was not too anxious.

But now things are obviously a bit out of his control, just like an acrobat holding a bamboo pole. Chen Yuan's bamboo pole is about to fall. At this time, he can only make quick adjustments so that the balance point of the bamboo pole is in his own hands again.

The shipbuilding ability of the Song Dynasty has improved significantly compared to before. More than 2,000 ships of all sizes can be built within a year. This is Chen Yuan’s largest capital. As long as he ensures that this capital is not lost, he will be able to fight a war of attrition.

Chen Yuan asked Manager Wu to inform all shipyards that from today on, all the vacations of the guys will be cancelled, working hours will be extended, shipbuilding, and desperately built ships, especially those large 600-ton ships, which will have to build at least twenty ships within one month.

He also informed all the big ships that were running trade on the sea to return to sail, and those that could be changed to warships should be warships. If they were not allowed, they would be good to help transport troops and cargo.

Of course, all this was being carried out in secret. Chen Yuan knew that no one would believe it after he said it now, because Wang Hui of *** cooperated with him at all. If he cooperated a little, Chen Yuan could find some clues and ask Renzong to order the Northward transfer of the navy in Guangzhou and Fuzhou, which might make the situation improve immediately.

Whether the *** people really want to win or the Japanese people succeeded in their plans, when the Song Dynasty navy headed north, they had to face up to this voice.

But now there is no way, so I can only prepare it privately. The geographical location of *** is very good, and I can directly attack the Liao Kingdom from where to attack. So what Chen Yuan had to do was to turn *** into his own territory, rather than turn him into ruins. If the Japanese really landed in ***, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"Shimei, what are you busy with recently?" Renzong walked in front and climbed and broke the flowers on the branches.

Chen Yuan followed him and said, "It's still about *** and Japan. I'm sure something unexpected happened there. Long live, we may have to fight a tough battle."

Renzong stopped his hand on a flower, sighed and said, "You can do these things, I really don't have the mood to care about them."

Chen Yuan asked softly: "I don't know what makes Long Live so upset?"

A hint of gloom appeared on Renzong's face: "A few days ago, that ordinary man Fan Zhongyan wrote a book again, and asked me to adopt a son from the royal family and make him the crown prince."

Being able to scold Fan Zhongyan as a common man means that Renzong is really angry, but he has no choice but to be angry now because he has no son. He may not have taken this problem seriously a few years ago, but now it has really become a knot in his heart.

Especially when you see that the Song Dynasty is booming in your hands, the people are rich and the soldiers are strong, you can really become the emperor of the ages, but you have no one who inherits your incense. You can imagine this kind of distress.

Chen Yuan's eyes rolled and he didn't say a word.

He knew he didn't need to say anything. Once Renzong started, he would pour out all the bitter water. This is human nature.

Sure enough, Renzong sighed and said, "Actually what he said makes sense. The four sons died one after another, and the one in Xiaoyou's belly didn't even have the chance to be born and take a look at the world. Perhaps it was because I, the emperor, did not do well enough."

Chen Yuan then said: "Long live kindness, there will definitely be children."

Renzong smiled bitterly: "Don't comfort me anymore. I am almost forty-three years old this year. People say that I know my destiny at fifty. In my opinion, this is the destiny. As an emperor, I have done a lot of things to confiscate others and destroy human races. God will also punish me for exorcising my descendants."

This was a bit pitiful, and his expression seemed even more pitiful. Chen Yuan didn't know how to comfort him.

Renzong sat down on the chair in the corridor: "I have thought about it too, so I will recognize one here first. A few days ago, the son of King Pu Zhao Yun, Nian Fang, came to the palace to play a few days ago. I looked quite clever and had a good relationship with Concubine Su. The queen also liked this kid very much. I plan to let King Pu give up his son."

Chen Yuan knew as soon as he heard this, Su Xiaoyou now had his own power. It was definitely not a coincidence that Fan Zhongyan and King Pu's son suddenly entered the palace. This was arranged by someone to help Su Xiaoyou.

Chen Yuan knew the character of this woman. Concubine Pang has died in recent years. The emperor favored her. The queen treated her well. She had almost no opponents in the harem. Once people were idle, they would think about those possible threats. Some might exist, and some might not happen.

Su Xiaoyou's personality determines that she will not be content with loneliness. If she doesn't find something for her, she may target the queen in the future. Because she will slowly think that the existence of the queen is a threat to her.

Chen Yuan did not want to see such a result. Zhao Yi was raised by the queen.

He said immediately: "Long live, I think that if King Pu gives up his son, the most suitable mother of King Pu in the harem is Concubine Su."

Renzong nodded: "The Prime Minister said the same thing. If the queen is allowed to recognize her, then he will be the crown prince. No matter what, I am in good health now. I will definitely have a son in the future and recognize the imperial concubine as my mother. If I have another son, I will have less trouble."

Chen Yuan responded: "Long live the wisdom."

Renzong suddenly looked back at him: "Don't always say that I am wise. The prince who was the last few days ago came to me to complain, saying that you were humiliating him and teasing his female official? Is this a matter?"

Chen Yuan was stunned when asked. It seemed that Wang Hui humiliated him that time. As for teasing the female official, he had the intention to do so, but it did not implement it. He just took a look at it, which was really a bit unfair!

He put on an innocent expression: "There is nothing at all. I just went to him and asked about them and the Umiliation War."

Renzong snorted, "Don't make a quibble, I can even think of what happened. Chen Shimei must have been so mean to tease someone's female official, but was knocked down by Prince ***, so he came to sue."

Renzong said it firmly, and his tone was not doubtful at all, nor was Chen Yuan allowed to defend himself.

Chen Yuan felt very aggrieved. He really wanted to tell Renzong that he really didn't tease women this time! But he usually left the impression of Renzong that he had already made Renzong make a judgment on this matter. It was useless to explain it, and he could only bear the blame.

Wang Hui! Chen Yuan secretly recited this name in his heart.

Renzong continued, "Shimei, you have married several wives and concubines. This is something that the prince-consort had never done before. You are in your thirties and have several sons and daughters. It's time to calm down!"

Chen Yuan immediately bent down and clasped his fists: "Yes, my son knows that he is wrong." But he thought in his heart that you are in your forties and still marry Su Xiaoyou into the door.

This trick works for Renzong. As long as he has a better attitude, he will not pursue these small things.

Sure enough, Renzong finally shook his head and sighed: "If the heaven gives me another son now, I will take him with me every day, feed him and dress him, and never go anywhere."

Just as he was sad, the palace servant ran over and said, "Long live, Prince Wang Hui, please come to see him in Chongde Hall."

Renzong frowned: "Have you said anything?"

The palace servant took out a notebook and handed it over: "Long live your eyes."

Renzong took it and snorted: "This Wang Hui is very ambitious, Shimei, look at it."

Chen Yuan took the book with both hands and opened it. Wang Hui asked to negotiate with the Song Dynasty on the issue of military alliance so that when a war against the Liao Kingdom might be launched in the future, the Song Dynasty and the *** could fight side by side and support each other.

Chen Yuan had read the notebook and closed it: "Don't pay attention to him, these kids have owed us 50 million yuan in the war with Japan until now. A few days ago, he actually said that we didn't help them in the war."

Renzong nodded: "I have heard of this, and many ministers in the court are dissatisfied with the emperor because of this. However, if they forget, let's forget it. If we mention this matter again, it will inevitably be suspected of repaying kindness, which makes people feel that we are a tyrant."

Chen Yuanyi clasped his fists and said, "Long live tolerate."

Renzong looked at him: "It is necessary to meet him. This is how you go with me. Shimei, go with me, and resolve the matter between you. In the future, he will be the king of ***, so don't make a fuss."

After saying that, he rushed to the palace servant and said, "Let him wait and notify Lord Fan and Prime Minister Xia to come too."

Everyone arrived, Renzong sat on the dragon throne and said, "Prince, we have already agreed on the military alliance. When you established diplomatic relations, the article "Watching and Mutual Aid" was written very clearly. Does the prince want to refine it?"

Wang Hui nodded and said, "Your Majesty, as the Lord said, I think if our two countries cooperate, we will definitely be able to easily defeat the Liao Kingdom."

Xia Shu looked at Wang Hui and didn't say anything. He didn't have much affection for these ***ers wearing high hats, but because the *** woman Wang Hui gave him a few days ago was quite delighted, he would not dismantle his position.

It is impossible to easily defeat the Liao Kingdom. Even if it is as powerful as the Song Dynasty, Renzong once said that to defeat the Liao Kingdom, we must devote the whole country to an arduous battle.

Renzong frowned, "Prince may not know how big the Liao Kingdom is, right? Their territory is much larger than that of our Song Dynasty. Not to mention anything else, they can't run wildly in less than two months."

Wang Hui smiled confidently: "Long live, of course I know this. Just forgive Xiao Wang for saying that if the Song army and our *** army communicate with each other, the Liao people would have to be beaten."

Renzong blinked twice: "Prince, please tell me bluntly, how can we communicate with each other?"

Wang Hui clasped his fists: "Xiao Wang came to the Song Dynasty for many days and admired the equipment of the team very much. It can be said that not only the people of Liao, but also the people of ours do not have equipment like the Song army."

When he said this, Renzong felt very comfortable, but what he said next really surprised Renzong!

"Xiao Wang believes that such good equipment in the Song Dynasty could not defeat the Liao Kingdom. That was because the Song army's tactics were not good, and the generals' command skills were not good. The Song army might not have formed a complete set of tactical theories. In our ***, there are many outstanding generals, who are experienced in many battles and are proficient in strategy. Xiao Wang can ask them to teach Song generals some common sense in marching and fighting."

Chongde Hall is not big, it is just used by Renzong to meet some guests.

There is no sound in the whole room now. Fan Zhongyan looked at Xia Shu and Xia Shu also looked at Fan Zhongyan. They didn't understand why the people said that the Song Dynasty did not have a complete tactical theory? I won't say that Zeng Gongliang's newly compiled military generals. Two thousand years ago, the Han people knew the strategy of marching and fighting.

Renzong stared at Wang Hui with his eyes, and now he looked at Chen Yuan again. After a long time, he suddenly understood why Chen Yuan humiliated this *** prince.
