Chapter 1,658: Taking people out to sea for conquest
Seeing that Zhao Chen didn't give him a chance to stop him, a touch of unnatural flashed across Zhang Ji's face.
Now that the Japanese ronin is suddenly attacking, Zhao Chen takes people out of the city like this. What if something happens to him?
If something happened to Zhao Chen on his territory, the emperor could kill all the families of all the officials here.
"Sir, what should we do?" An official looked at Zhao Chen and others' backs away and asked Zhang Ji.
They are now like Zhang Ji, and they are full of worries.
If Zhao Chen stayed in the city, they would naturally do their own business without any scruples.
Now that Zhao Chen has left the city, once he encounters any danger outside...
They felt a chill on their backs when they thought about it.
Zhang Ji frowned. He knew the ferocity of the ronin, otherwise it would not have been so long that the army in the city would not be able to capture the ronin.
Although Zhao Chen has a hundred Xuanjia troops around him, he can't resist the many ronin people.
Besides, the Xuanjia Army is their war horses.
But now those people are just infantrymen.
If something really happens then, how can they protect the King of Han?
"General Liu, you should take people to follow His Highness the King of Han, and be sure to stay with His Highness the King of Han at all times to ensure the safety of the King of Han, and not neglect for a moment."
After hearing this, General Liu nodded seriously and immediately ordered his team to follow Zhao Chen and others.
"Let's go there too." After the team ahead disappeared, Zhang Ji turned around and said to everyone behind him.
...
When Zhao Chen came outside the city, he saw many people running wildly into the city.
Behind them were a few dwarfs chasing them with their swords.
These dwarves are ronin from Japan.
But although these Japanese ronin figures are short, their faces are full of ferociousness.
"jijigi." I don't know what these Japanese ronin were calling in Ula. A Japanese ronin caught up with the fleeing Tang people and was about to raise their swords to slash at him.
Li Ke, who was beside him, immediately took out his crossbow and shot at the Japanese ronin.
The arrow flew out, hitting the neck of the Japanese ronin.
The Japanese ronin fell to the ground, and the long sword in his hand fell to the ground.
The other Japanese ronin just wanted to rush up and kill the fleeing people, but they didn't expect that the reinforcements in the city would come so quickly.
Turn around and run away.
"Chasing." Zhao Chen ordered the Xuanjia Army soldiers behind him.
One hundred people also chased and killed them immediately.
Zhao Chen and Li Ke came to the Japanese ronin who was shot to death just now.
"Why is this guy leaving a tuft of hair under his nose?" Li Ke looked at the face of the Japanese ronin strangely.
"Their habits are just." Zhao Chen didn't say much.
But the Japanese ronin in front of him was shot by Li Ke with an arrow, and he couldn't know anything from him.
Now we can only hope that the Xuanjia Army can catch one or two living agents.
I will know more at that time.
But unfortunately, when Xuanjia Army came back, he brought nothing back.
Those Japanese ronin actually disappeared under their noses.
There are many mountains and forests outside the city. If it weren't for someone who was very familiar with the terrain here, the Japanese ronin would never dare to run into the mountains and forests.
But now, those Japanese ronin disappeared in front of the Xuanjia Army.
Zhao Chen even further concluded that when the Japanese ronin attacked, there must be a conspiracy in the city with traitors.
But Zhao Chen has no idea who this person is.
"Your Highness, are you okay?" General Liu, sent by Zhang Ji, also rushed to Zhao Chen at this moment.
Seeing that Zhao Chen was fine, General Liu felt relieved.
"Where is Governor Zhang?" Zhao Chen looked at General Liu.
"Governor General, he has brought people to pursue the Japanese ronin and sent me to protect His Highness." General Liu quickly explained.
When Zhao Chen heard this, he did not continue to ask questions.
If the city officials conspire with the Japanese ronin, they will not be able to find anything unless they catch the Japanese ronin's living mouth.
"Your Highness, let's go back." General Liu looked at Zhao Chen.
He was afraid that Zhao Chen would continue to move forward, and he might encounter an ambush from the Japanese at that time.
It was really bad at that time.
"Thank you for your hard work, General Liu." Zhao Chen said just this and turned around and walked into the city.
If you don’t catch the survivor, it will be meaningless to chase after it or not.
"Brother, shouldn't I kill that ronin?" Li Ke followed Zhao Chen and saw that Zhao Chen's expression was a little wrong, he asked in a low voice.
Zhao Chen looked back at Li Ke and saw him following him with guilt on his face, knowing that he thought he was blaming the shooting of the werewolf.
But what Zhao Chen was thinking was how to find out the officials who had an affair with Ronin in the city.
"If you kill, kill it. It's okay. I'm going to take people out to sea tomorrow."
"Going to sea?" Zhao Chen's words almost shocked Li Ke's chin.
What to do on sea?
You can't just want to wipe out those ronin people at sea, right?
They didn't even know that the Japanese ronin were there.
And if you really meet Japanese ronin at sea, are you the opponents of them?
Those ronin were born and raised on the sea. How can they fight?
General Liu, who was standing beside him, heard Zhao Chen say he was going to the sea, and his expression changed as well.
But he is different from Li Ke, and General Liu didn't say a word.
Soon everyone returned to the city, and the sky gradually became brighter.
Zhang Ji and his men also returned to the city. When he saw Zhao Chen, he immediately bowed and said, "Your Highness the King of Han atonement, and the emperor let the Japanese ronin run away."
"I ran away and my people didn't catch them." Zhao Chen helped Zhang Ji up without any blame.
"I plan to mobilize the soldiers from Quanzhou City tomorrow to go out to sea to pursue the Japanese ronin." Zhao Chen said to Zhang Ji again.
Zhang Ji's expression changed at that time.
I even suspected that there was something wrong with my ears, so I misheard Zhao Chen's words.
However, he still asked carefully: "Your Highness said he would go overseas to pursue the Japanese ronin."
"Yes, can the Japanese ronin run away? I will take people to chase him into the sea and see how he runs." Zhao Chen nodded and said.
"Your Highness, no," Zhang Ji immediately objected.
"The wind and waves in the sea are very strong, and if you are not careful, you will be worried about your life."
"Your Highness, a nobleman, must not do such a reckless thing."
"Besides, the ronin is familiar with the sea, and it is very difficult for our army to pursue it..."
"Governor Zhang, this is an order, not for me to discuss with you."
"If you feel it is inappropriate, you can submit the court, but today, you have to follow my orders." Zhao Chen interrupted Zhang Ji and did not give him any chance to refute.
