At this time, news came from the East Factory.
Obviously, even they realized that something was unusual.
Because of the previous war, the Third Prince of Yuan had exhausted all the power he had accumulated over the years.
Now I am completely alone with my injuries.
But there is no doubt.
This person will certainly not give up the idea of invading the territory of Wei and restoring Yuan.
Perhaps because of that battle, the obsession in his heart must have become even deeper.
In this situation, one will definitely find ways to avenge this great hatred.
Now there is news that he and the Japanese navy appeared on the same island. It is almost certain that the two sides may be about to unite.
Zhao Jiguang had been in the army for many years and had been taught by the Marquis of Shenwu. After a little thought, he was able to understand the twists and turns in the matter and also knew the purpose of Eunuch Lin from the East Factory in reporting this news.
But at this moment, he did not respond. He still stood there, muttering to himself: "Back then, although the remnants of the previous royal family fled overseas during the reign of Emperor Taizu Gao, their number was not large, only about a hundred people."
"And at sea, these remnants of the former dynasty are often pursued by pirates. The situation is very bad and they could be destroyed at any time. Even if they survive with their tenacious perseverance, they have never posed any threat to our Great Wei."
"Just a few decades ago, the remnants of the previous dynasty's royal family didn't have much power, but since the Third Prince of the Yuan Dynasty came out, the situation has changed."
"It only took a dozen years to conquer a large number of pirates and use them for his own purposes. His men reached tens of thousands."
"This is a very strange thing. In the past, I always thought this person was a talent, but now it seems..."
"Perhaps during this period, another force intervened."
As he spoke, Zhao Jiguang turned his head and looked at the sea chart behind him.
The above marks the islands and sea areas where the Third Prince of Yuan Dynasty has been active in recent years.
Of course, it also includes the country on the sea east of the Great Wei, the Great Wa Kingdom.
At this moment, he already had an idea in his mind, and immediately said: "It seems that Prince Yuan San has been secretly colluding with the Great Japanese Kingdom for a long time."
Only by relying on the power of the Great Wa Kingdom can we subdue all the pirates along the coast of the Great Wei in a short period of time and use them for our own purposes.
Otherwise, how could it be done with just over a decade of time and a few broken ships?
"General, you are very impressive." At this time, Xiao Linzi from the East Factory spoke up, saying, "Your thoughts coincide with Eunuch Yu's speculation. Both of you think that the Third Prince Yuan has some connection to the Great Japanese Nation."
"That's why Eunuch Yu ordered me to come and deliver this message. He's afraid that the two sides will meet and unite, causing harm to the people along the coast of Wei. I hope General Zhao's navy will pay more attention to this aspect!"
The news that the Japanese navy appeared on Liuyun Island was obtained by Yu Huatian from the top leaders of the Baiyi Sect.
Therefore, it is also suspected that the Baiyi Sect is not only colluding with the remnants of the royal family of the previous dynasty.
It is also connected with the Great Japanese Kingdom.
I originally thought.
The White Robe Sect was just a force composed of the remnants of the previous dynasty, but now it seems that it is not a simple force and has been infiltrated by the Japanese Empire.
Because of this, Yu Huatian felt that this matter must be informed to Zhao Jiguang. Because the Great Wa Kingdom and the Great Wei were separated by the sea, the navy was needed to deal with it, so notifying the navy in advance was naturally crucial.
At this moment, Zhao Jiguang's expression became serious after hearing Xiao Linzi's explanation. He said, "Don't worry, there's no need for you to remind me. I know what to do. This is concerning the people of the coastal areas of Wei State, so I won't be careless at all."
Hearing this, Xiao Linzi nodded. Now that the matter had been made known, the mission was considered completed.
He didn't say much at the moment and turned to say goodbye.
As the head of the East Factory in Haizhou, he still has a lot to do.
As for Zhao Jiguang, he continued to stare at the sea chart in front of him, thinking that perhaps the navy's opponent in the future would not be pirates, but the Japanese navy.
As an island country, Japan has a very powerful navy and is very famous throughout the entire Eastern continent.
Compared with the navy of the Wei Dynasty, it is far superior in terms of warships and other aspects.
Therefore, in the next period of time, I must take it seriously.
"It seems that we need to hurry up with the construction of warships."
Zhao Jiguang talked to himself, but he didn't feel much worry in his heart.
In his opinion, it would be no problem for the navy to deal with the pirates. However, as the commander of Haizhou and the son of the current Shenwu Marquis, he did not want to simply eliminate the pirates, as he thought it was simple and easy.
After all, his last opponent was the strongest grassland cavalry in the entire Eastern Continent.
But now, I know that the person I will have to deal with in the future is the Great Wa Queen.
He started to get excited.
Japan has always had strong control over the surrounding waters.
But now, Zhao Jiguang understood that his chance to show himself had come. As long as the navy's warships were completed, in the future, in the waters surrounding the Great Wei, and even around the Eastern Continent, the Great Wei would have the final say!
This is his current goal!
...
In the capital, in the imperial city.
Wei Yunyi was in Jingde Palace, listening to Zhao Lingying report on recent events.
Nothing major has happened in the Wei Dynasty recently, either in the north or the south.
With the Marquis of Shenwu supporting the northern border and the court continuously allocating military pay, there will naturally be no problems.
As for the southern border, although the barbarians in the Baiyue region often invaded, they never succeeded and were all under control.
