Travel to the early Tang Dynasty and become a salted fish

"Didn't His Majesty the Emperor ask me to set up a navy and a fleet to build a Maritime Silk Road?"

"I have decided to start recruiting troops now and use Japan Island as our training ground."

Hearing what Chu Mo said, Wang Dehai was stunned.

"Sir, this matter is related to the diplomatic relations between the two countries. Do you want to report it to the court so that His Majesty can discuss it with the ministers?"

"Hmph, you're going to fight a mere barbarian, why should you ask the imperial court for instructions? If that happens, where will I, Chu Mo's face, go?"

"Besides, it was the barbarians who made the move first, and I didn't take the initiative to cause trouble. I was doing this in self-defense, do you understand?"

The corner of Wang Dehai's mouth twitched, and he really wanted to ask, are you serious?Have you ever rushed into someone else's home to defend yourself?

After mumbling for a while, I finally didn't dare to ask directly.

"But sir, this is a country after all. Although I don't know how many soldiers they have, with the 2000 quota given by His Majesty, what do you think is the chance of winning?"

Chu Mo rolled his eyes, looked at Wang Dehai like a fool and said:

"I'm not going to fight against their entire country. I'm just going to find and kill those Japanese who killed my innocent people."

"Is it possible that the Japanese nation will start a war with me because of a few bandits?"

"If the Japanese country dares to work together and kill Li Junxian's 2000 people, I don't believe it. Your Majesty and the courtiers will watch helplessly as the Japanese country does not take the Tang Dynasty into account and will not avenge them."

Seeing that Chu Mo actually wanted to drag the entire Tang Dynasty into the cesspool for his own selfishness, Wang Dehai couldn't bear it anymore and reminded him:

"Sir, it's not just the Japanese country that doesn't take our Tang Dynasty seriously, it's really you who are making a fuss out of a molehill and going too far to deceive others."

Hearing what Wang Dehai said, Chu Mo became furious instantly. He stood up suddenly, glared at him and said:

"Why, Li Er didn't even say anything, and you stood up and accused me? Do you think my people deserve to die? The people of Tang Dynasty deserve to be massacred by those Japanese?"

With a plop, Wang Dehai was so frightened that he immediately slid down from his seat, knelt on the ground, looked at Chu Mo with a horrified look and said:

"Master Chu, that's not what I meant. I just want to say that your long journey to the Japanese island is really not worth it."

Seeing that Wang Dehai was so frightened, Chu Mo snorted: "I don't know if it's worth it. I only know that I will kill anyone who offends me."

As he said that, he looked Wang Dehai up and down intentionally or unintentionally.

Wang Dehai was horrified by the sight of Chu Mo. He was afraid that the other party would do something wrong, so he pulled him out and chopped him.

He didn't think that if Chu Mo killed him, His Majesty the Emperor would not hesitate to break up with him for the sake of his domestic slave.

However, when he saw the cunning look in Chu Mo's eyes, he immediately understood that the other party was not blaming himself. He was obviously looking for an excuse to offend himself and then take advantage of himself.

Thinking of this, an idea flashed in Wang Dehai's mind, and he immediately knew what to do, so he hurriedly said:

"Sir, I made a mistake just now. I apologize to you. Your people are my people of the Tang Dynasty. They are so oppressed by others. Only by skinning and pulling off the grass of those thieves can you relieve the anger in your heart. "

"Don't worry, I will go back to discuss with several adults, draft a memorial together, and submit it to Your Majesty overnight, explaining that Japanese bandits are rampant here, killing, looting, and committing all kinds of evil, and asking Your Majesty to increase the number of the navy to ensure smooth trade routes in the future. "

Seeing that Wang Dehai was so aware of current affairs, Chu Mo immediately stepped forward to help him up, and then thoughtfully helped him dust off his body and said:

"Oh, Eunuch Wang, look at you, why are you sitting on the ground so well?"

"I must have been tired from traveling today and didn't get much rest. In this way, I will find someone to go to the sea later and catch you some sea cucumbers, abalones and the like and have them delivered to you. You can also make up for it, so as not to say that I won't entertain here. Distinguished guest."

"Your Majesty, you're welcome. I just have a humble life. To be pitied by your Majesty is such a blessing."

Although he said polite words on his lips, he was greeting Chu Mo up and down in his heart.

You said you can just talk if you have something to do, so why bother people like this?It's not enough to torment people, you have to scare yourself first, and then let yourself guess your purpose.

If it were someone else who was in poor health or mentally inflexible, Wang Dehai would have doubted whether the other person would be able to walk out of here alive today.

After achieving his goal, Chu Mo quickly drove Wang Dehai out.

Then he asked the secret guards to send someone to the beach to deliver him a basket of broken fish and shrimps, and then had people post recruitment notices everywhere.

Here, as soon as Wang Dehai returned to his residence, he called Li Daozong, Li Junxian and Samurai Xun over and told them everything about what had just happened.

It was only said that bandits were rampant in the surrounding areas and the Japanese were burning, killing and looting everywhere. In order to restore peace to the people around him, Chu Mo decided to ask them to petition the court to increase the number of naval quotas.

At first, except for Li Junxian, the three of them said nothing. Li Daozong and Samurai Xun did not agree.

After all, in their opinion, the 2000 naval quota given by the court is enough to maintain the coastal defense here, and there is no need to continue to increase the number of troops.

However, when Wang Dehai told the warrior Xun that the Maritime Silk Road must pass through the Japanese island, if there was no strong force to deter them, if the Japanese took advantage of the situation and wanted to plot evil, what would the caravan do to resist them?

In an instant, Warrior Xun changed his mind and agreed with Wang Dehai's proposal.

However, Li Daozong did not relent on the grounds that increasing troops would increase military expenditures, which would bring burdens to the court and local people.

Just as the two sides were in a stalemate, Li Junxian, who had never spoken, suddenly said:

"Isn't it just a few military expenses? Don't forget whose territory this is, and who asked us to report more troops."

As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at each other in blank dismay.

Wang Dehai also reacted instantly. Yes, with a rich man like Chu Mo sitting in charge, the military expenditure is nothing.

So he immediately patted his chest and said:

"Master Li, regarding the military expenditure, I will go and talk to Master Chu. Let alone 5000 more troops, just send 50000 more troops. I believe that with Master Chu's strength, it will definitely be a step to support this small number of troops. It’s just a matter of words.”

Originally Wang Dehai's words were just bragging, but Li Daozong kept looking at the dead eunuch and was unhappy, so he immediately caught the loophole in his words, stood up, pointed at Wang Dehai's nose and shouted:

"50000 people, what do you want to do now? What does Chu Mo want to do?"
