Chen Xuance's words seemed very polite.
But there are also aspects that show the strength of Wei.
Otherwise, he would not have informed everyone of the results of the Southern Expedition at this time.
The Baiyue surrendered, and although they had not yet been incorporated into the territory of the Wei Dynasty, the barbarian leader Meng Jue was enthroned as the King of Baiyue, and nominally they had a vassal relationship.
Just like Gao Yang before, he seems to have a strong sense of independence, but in fact, sooner or later he will completely submit to the Wei Dynasty.
He knew all this, so he said it directly, in order to intimidate the Aqin III in front of him.
In terms of status, even Chen Xuance is far inferior to the Lord of Tiandu.
But he was very clear that he represented the Great Wei and everything had to be done for the benefit of the Great Wei. So at the most critical moment, Chen Xuance was very clear about what to say.
Aqin III, who was standing nearby, smiled upon hearing this and said, "I have long admired His Majesty the Emperor of Great Wei. I would be delighted to meet him this time."
Having said that, in fact, he did not want to go to Wei, especially after hearing about the victory of the southern expedition.
In the eyes of Aqin III, the current Emperor of Wei is extremely terrifying and powerful.
After all, he could even lead the army in person.
So he didn't want to face it head-on. If he got angry, there would be more trouble.
But now, for the sake of Tiandu and the stability of his own regime, Aqin III must rely on the power of Wei.
"Since Your Majesty Tiandu has this intention, I believe that on this trip, our Great Wei and Tiandu will definitely reach a mutually satisfactory result." Next to him, Chen Xuance bowed slightly, with the smile on his face still unchanged.
That’s right, this time they are going to the Great Wei. Aqin III wants to use the power of the Great Wei to balance the domestic situation.
Otherwise, I wouldn't have gone there in person.
Chen Xuance also took this opportunity to return to the capital of Wei. After all, the task assigned by His Majesty this time had been completed.
Soon, the two stopped talking, and the team quietly moved forward.
...
On the coast of Wei, outside the Haizhou Navy Camp.
Zhao Jiguang, dressed in armor, was heading towards the coast with his men.
Each of these naval commanders looked very happy, with anticipation in their eyes.
Because the warships they built could be launched today. Some shipbuilders asserted that these dozens of newly built warships were stronger, deeper, and more capable than ever before.
If we have these warships, we will never suffer any loss when facing pirates in the future, and a head-on confrontation at sea will be no problem at all.
When everyone arrived at the beach, they saw huge warships floating on the sea outside the dock, looking very imposing.
Compared with the warships built decades ago next to it, it not only looks newer, but also much more majestic.
As naval commanders, they all knew very well that the navy's combat power was not on land, but on the sea. Unfortunately, since the court established the navy, this aspect has been very weak.
Of course, this does not mean that the warships built by the Wei navy are inferior to those of the pirates. In fact, the pirates' warships are not built by themselves. Most of them are built in Japan and then sold to the pirates.
So in fact, the warships of Wei Dynasty were not as good as those of Wo Dynasty.
In fact, this is very normal. After all, Japan is an island country and needs ships, which it has accumulated experience in over the years.
As for the Wei Dynasty, most of the battles were fought on land, so it was normal that it was not as good as the enemy in this aspect.
But even though it's normal, it doesn't mean it has to be like this forever.
Just like Zhao Jiguang had been trying to find a way to solve this problem after he took office. His goal was to build the Wei Navy into the best navy in the world, and the most important thing was the warships.
Without warships, no matter how brave the naval officers and soldiers are, they will be of little use.
Fortunately, the imperial court allowed the navy to build warships on its own, and the Ministry of Works was not allowed to get involved.
For Zhao Jiguang, this is the full trust given by His Majesty.
Under such circumstances, he naturally became more cautious and hardworking.
Therefore, within this short period of time, Zhao Jiguang ordered the shipbuilders of the navy to speed up. With the court providing sufficient money, the progress was naturally fast. Now, everything is ready and the warship is finally built.
Even if there are only more than ten ships, there is always a first step for everything. Once this first step is taken, things will become much easier.
Of course, Zhao Jiguang was not only concerned about the warships, but also the training of his soldiers.
He has been in Zhenbeiguan for many years and has a mature training method.
With a little bit of experience, you can adapt to the navy.
It is for this reason that the naval commanders at the dock are all in high spirits and have sharp eyes.
The navy was not considered strong before, simply because the imperial court did not pay much attention to it. Now that Zhao Jiguang is here, of course it cannot be the same as before. Now everything is moving in a good direction.
"General, everything is ready. At your command, the soldiers will board the warships and officially patrol the waters of the Great Wei."
At this time, a naval commander came out, his eyes eager to try.
The new warship has been built.
Of course he also wanted to try it out.
"good!"
Upon hearing this, Zhao Jiguang took a deep breath, then stepped onto the platform and looked towards all the soldiers present. He said, "For many years, our navy has been at the bottom of the Wei army and was often reprimanded by the court. But now, the court has paid attention to our navy. His Majesty has even provided military pay for our navy and allowed us to build warships independently. We must not let down such trust."
