The black-sailed boat rippled gently on the Wei River, along the Wei River, heading towards the Qinglin, at the intersection of Jieyu River.

The black-sailed boat went upstream and slowly advanced along the Jieyu River.

In March, the grass just sprouted tender buds. Chen Ying stood at the bow of the boat, like an ordinary fisherman, wearing a tattered slutched tutu and a straw hat.

If the aristocratic families knew that this ordinary fisherman looked like a man, Chen Yingshi, who wanted to peel off the skin and cramp, knock on the bones and suck marrow, would probably have tried their best to kill Chen Ying.

In the grain trade war seven years ago, Chen Ying only damaged the vitality of the aristocratic families, but in the food war that just happened, they even broke their bones. The wealth accumulated by the major aristocratic families over the years became Chen Ying's property.

Chen Ying's profit of more than 20 million yuan was only 1.4 million yuan, and the profit was quite good.

The small black-peng boat rowed through the river surface and dragged out long water marks. There was no wind in the morning, and there was a thin mist flowing on the river surface in the distance, and the waves were as flat as a mirror. Chen Ying stood at the bow of the boat, looking at the large branches of Yang Lin on the west bank, subconsciously clenched his fists, and walked forward, and then passed Yang Lin, it was in the clear forest.

Perhaps today is the last time I stayed in this place.

At the beginning, the Qinglin was just a wasteland, and after more than ten years of development, it has become a well-known city. Especially the Jieyu River, which was originally only a hundred steps wide, has now become a waterway spanning more than 500 steps of water.

Especially the pier located on the west bank of Jieyu River, the boats are intertwined, and the pier is full of boats. The pier yard is in front of it. There are a row of shops with blue bricks and black tiles. The shop street is more than a thousand steps long. Behind the shop are lined up. I don’t know how many yards are hidden. A rammed earth avenue extends from the end of the stone street, and there is the direction of Wannian County, Chang'an.

All shops are open, including breakfast shops, restaurants, clinics, medicine shops, gold and silver shops, pawn shops, tea shops, goods store, inns. They counted carefully and there were more than hundreds.

In addition to the shop streets in front of you, you can also see alleys extending deep into the streets, and the streets are filled with various sales stalls. In front of the shop streets and wharfs, there are people who get up early to go to the market. There are also boats, merchants or porters who work as coolies on the wharfs, and women wearing red and green. The shouts and the sounds of pack horses, mules and donkeys are heard one after another, which is very lively.

Chen Ying did not stop at the pier. Although Chenjiabao berths were idle all year round on the pier, Chen Ying continued to walk along Jieyu River.

Beside is the Fertilizer Research Institute established by the Agricultural College of Datang University of Technology. Further ahead is the Mechanical Research Institute of the Agricultural College and the Mechanics Research Institute of the School of Technology.

In the whole story, the place where Chen Ying devoted the most effort was actually not the carriage workshop, farm tool workshop, or bearing and spring workshop here, but the twenty-nine professional colleges and one hundred and four research majors in Datang University of Technology. At this time, Datang University of Technology had a huge university with thousands of faculty and staff and tens of thousands of students.

Finally, along the Jieyu River, Chen Ying's black-sailed boat drove into the reed marsh along the curved waterway. After turning around, he finally arrived in front of an inconspicuous square boat.

It is inconspicuous because this large ship is about five or six meters long and two or three meters wide. However, it only has one deck in the area, and the deck is full of weeds, as if it is like a small island in a reed marsh.

The black-sailed boat leaned against the big ship, and Chen Ying stepped forward at this time.

As long as you board this big ship, you can feel the size of this big ship. Of course, the most eye-catching thing is the black iron pipe with a bowl-shaped mouth on the deck.

Don’t look at these pipes inconspicuously, Chen Yingcai realized that anyone who underestimates him will be buried in the place where the dead will be buried.

The God of War is not a false reputation, but this ship is actually Chen Ying’s true confidence.

Such a huge warship can be said to be the common deed of more than 3,000 technical craftsmen and scholars from the Datang Institute of Technology. It is the only submarine in the Tang Dynasty and even the world. And unlike the behemoths in later generations that are always as high as dozens of meters, this warship is a cigar-shaped shape, and is made of steel. It can theoretically dive to a depth of 300 meters and can sneak at the bottom of the water for three hours.

Of course, even if it is exposed to the water, no one can block this artillery submarine.

Just as Chen Ying got into the first floor cabin, Shan Xiongxin hugged and came to Chen Ying and said, "Master, are you really going to leave the Tang Dynasty?"

"Leave!" Chen Ying took off his mahjong short shirt and smiled, "Don't you feel that the Tang Dynasty is becoming more and more depressed now?"

Xu Jingzong also walked out of it. He frowned and said, "Master, I am really unwilling to give up. What have we gained after working hard for the Tang Dynasty for so many years? This is unfair!"

"Where is fairness in the world?" Chen Ying looked at Xu Jingzong and said, "Have you done fair? You have four sons, but you only spoiled Xu Ang, but what about Xu Xin, Xu Ren, Xu Yi and the others?"

Xu Jingzong smiled awkwardly and said in a slight sense: "This is different!"

"Actually the same!" Chen Ying smiled and said, "My existence has already made them afraid. It is a good thing for me to leave. The Tang Dynasty cannot withstand the torture. I hate killing people, and even more hate killing acquaintances. But once... I will kill countless acquaintances, kill Wei Zheng, Fang Xuanling, Wang Gui, and even Li Xiuning must be killed. I can't do this!"

Speaking of this, Chen Ying took out a stack of redemption tickets from his arms, all of which were blank redemption tickets. This is actually more like a check from later generations. If you fill in the numbers, you can go to the nearby bank to spend money or copper coins.

Chen Ying looked at Ma Zhou, Shan Xiongxin, Xu Jingzong, and Liang Zan and other confidants and said, "If you want to stay, keep it. I can't take the money in the money shop, and it's useless. Fusang has silver and gold. In the future, I can even build a city of gold."

Shan Xiongxin took the vote and tore it off directly, then smiled and said, "My life is given by the Lord. No matter how many swords and fires, I will accompany the Lord. In this life, I have never lived in the City of Gold. Not to mention the City of Gold, I have never lived in the House of Gold. If I don't live, it would be a pity!"

Liang Zan twisted his fat butt and squeezed out a smile and said, "I have a lot of this thing, and I still have one hundred and eight million coins!"

At this moment, panic footsteps came from outside.

Chen Ying frowned and looked at the direction of the aisle.

Guo Luo said anxiously: "Master, there is something wrong!"

"Wei Xuancheng, you really are!" Chen Ying couldn't explain anything.

Shan Xiongxin issued a speech: "Prepare for the battle!"

Press the An whistle button casually, and as the large stream of steam pours in, the whistle makes a harsh sound, which is transmitted to every corner.

The steam engine submarine began to start the boiler, pressurized frantically, and dozens of water pumps quickly drained the submarine.

Jieyu River is not an ideal combat area. The water depth here is too shallow. Even after dozens of cleanings, the average water depth is still only more than three meters deep. For submarines, they cannot even penetrate completely.

The only way is to surface and compete on the water.

The pressure-resistant shell that can withstand water pressure of 300 meters can completely ignore any attack method of this era.

As the water is discharged from the submarine, the submarine is rising slowly.

One zhang, two zhang, three zhang...

At this time, the submarine also showed its hideous appearance, about fifty or sixty feet long and about five or six feet wide, and it was still a huge figure in this era.

Chen Ying walked slowly along the corridor to the command tower.

At this time, hundreds of navy warships were densely packed in this tens of thousands of acres of water. The original reeds were uprooted bit by bit, forming a water area where wars could be fought.

A black-sailed boat came slowly.

A young man with a pretty face stood on the black-sailed boat, Li Chengdao, the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty.

Chen Ying breathed a sigh of relief, Li Jiancheng had no intention of turning against him.

Otherwise, they would never have both appeared in this place.

Chen Ying was about to board the black-sailed boat, but Shan Xiongxin was shocked.

Chen Ying smiled and said, "I am safe because I am within the range of the cannon. On the surface, we are surrounded. In fact, aren't they also under our muzzle?"

Chen Ying walked towards the saiboat calmly and boarded a huge dragon boat bridge in the distance from the saiboat.

After not seeing each other for three months, Li Jiancheng seemed to have changed, with silver hair. Looking at Chen Ying coming, Li Jiancheng said: "Li Anyan, let everyone leave, including the Secretariat, you can go out."

On the deck of the dragon boat, Li Jiancheng took off the emperor's crown, sat down, poured a glass of strong wine and poured it down, but he choked and coughed. In the past few days, he lost weight, his eyes were covered with blood, and his inner pain was indescribable.

A feeling of betrayal made Li Jiancheng feel unbearable.

After coughing, he poured another glass for himself, but he still drank it with his head raised. It didn't look like drinking, but it seemed like he was torture himself.

Chen Ying looked a little worried and advised: "Your Majesty, don't drink it anymore, drinking like this will ruin your body!"

Li Jiancheng cursed vaguely and said, "If you have a large group of people to make trouble for you, what's the use of a strong body? There is no place to pour out this passion!"

Li Jiancheng raised his eyes and asked, "Chen Ying, are we friends?"

Chen Ying nodded and said, "Of course."

Li Jiancheng said bitterly, "I, Li Jiancheng, will not betray my friends, do you believe it? I really don't know if you were assassinated! Maybe you don't believe it if you say it!"

"I believe it!" Chen Ying nodded and said affirmatively.

"Then you sit down and have a few drinks with me... When you get drunk, you will forget all the troublesome things!" Li Jiancheng said: "Today there are no monarch and ministers, only friends!"

Chen Ying sighed secretly, sat down, poured a glass for himself, and drank it with Li Jiancheng.

Two people drink one cup and one cup, and pour a bottle of white wine into death. In a blink of an eye, they drank the whole bottle of white wine.

Li Jiancheng also filled most of the bottle. He should have been drunk, but he didn't. On the contrary, he became more and more awake as he drank, and he knocked on the desk with his tongue: "I'm very tired. My friend, try to drink as much as possible! If you don't drink, you will have no chance. Cheng Zhijie, the number one general of Li Shimin, signed a city alliance with the Sassanian Empire in Constantinople. He will integrate the Sassanian Empire, Byzantine Empire and the Fusan Tang Dynasty, and come from Anxi. Li Shimin also led a million troops to land in Lingnan and meet with Feng Ang. With your clan brother Hou Mo Chenxu, all forces in Jiannan and Jiangnan Road are ready to fight with us to the death. Once he arrives, our doomsday will come. So, take advantage of the opportunity now, try to drink as much as possible!"

Li Jiancheng was in great pain at this time.

The feeling of betrayal.

The most heartbreaking thing is. Especially Qin Qiong, the general of Anbei whom he placed his hopes on, Qin Qiong killed Liu Yan, the Sima of the Anbei Protectorate, Xuanfu Envoy of the Anbei Protectorate, and Quan Wanji, the Censor of the Anbei Protectorate.

He claimed to the public that he had never been loyal to Li Jiancheng, so how could he betrayed?

Li Jiancheng was speechless. Qin Qiong was originally Li Shimin's best friend, and he was only loyal to Li Shimin.

The so-called Li Daozong's great victory in Yinshan was also a scam. It was the plan of Bazhuo, Li Daozong and Qin Qiong. Jie Li also re-established the Khan Banner in Rouran Shanyutai and recruited more than 60,000 troops. Forty or five hundred thousand troops would appear in the entire north. To the north of Yuanzhou, the last army loyal to the court, Dingyuan Army was deducted for three months of military pay. They were short of food. They were afraid they would not have to fight and would be defeated without fighting.

Chen Ying murmured: "It shouldn't be like this, nothing shouldn't be like this!"

Li Jiancheng laughed and said, "That was the case back then. The court's policies were good, but when it was implemented below, everything changed. During the former Sui Dynasty, Yang Guang wanted to build the Grand Canal, which was beneficial to the country and the people. At that time, the imperial court could not use up all the food. Yang Guang stipulated that every resident would rotate every 20 days to get tax deductions. However, these people withdrew the food, ate the food, forced millions of people to rebel!"

Li Jiancheng suddenly punched the table hard and made a loud noise.

Li Jiancheng shouted a little crazy: "But I really can't understand why those bastards insist on pulling our backs. Li Shimin must have done better than me? What's the benefit for them?"

Chen Ying picked up the wine glass in time and did not let the wine in the glass spill out. He looked at Li Jiancheng as if he saw a originally wild male lion cut off its claws, tied its limbs, and sealed its mouth. Even though he was full of anger, even if he wanted to tear everything apart, he could not move.

He carefully hid the sympathetic look in his eyes, because the last thing the emperor needed was sympathy.

He took a deep breath and said, "Your Majesty, you are idle too. I want to tell you a story to relieve your boredom. How about it?"

Li Jiancheng said curiously: "What story?"

"I can't explain clearly. When I was assassinated, I was unconscious for three days and three nights in a row, but I had a long and real dream!"

Then Chen Ying told Li Jiancheng in a casual manner.

"Our history is actually just a circle!" Chen Ying smiled bitterly: "Every dynasty was born from the world's collapse and everywhere, and also died from the world's collapse and everywhere. Of course, this dynasty was born from the war like a strong Han, but its founding emperor was a cowherd, who got up at the bottom, suffered all kinds of hardships, and died for life. I don't know how many wars it took to unify the once-split country and establish its own empire on the ruins of the previous dynasty. However, since its birth, this empire had to face serious border troubles, and the powerful northern nomadic peoples frequently

Harassing the frontier and staring at it! In order to ensure the security of the empire, the heir of this dynasty, the best son of the founding emperor, moved the capital from the beautiful Jiangnan to the drought and barren north after ascending the throne, rebuilt the capital in the north, and set a legacy: the emperor guards the country's gates, and the king dies in the country! In the following three hundred years, the heirs of this empire, whether they are geniuses, mediocre, or even absurd and boastful, adhere to this legacy. Until three hundred years later, the dynasty was exhausted, the last guardian of the empire still did not forget this mission, and finally saved the last dignity of the empire by suicide."

Li Jiancheng couldn't help but ask, "Why? The monarchs all performed their duties and the empire should be extremely strong and brilliant under their governance. Why did it perish in just three hundred years?"

Chen Ying said with a sad expression: "It is impossible to explain that a dynasty has been exhausted, and it is impossible not to perish. In fact, the seeds of the destruction of this dynasty have quietly sprouted as early as the first half of the year."

Li Jiancheng listened intently.

Chen Ying sorted out his thoughts and continued: "A century after the founding of the country, this empire gradually lost its arduous decisive decisiveness during its founding period. Everyone lived in a peaceful environment for too long, lost a sense of crisis, and forgot that there was a hungry wolf staring at them outside the cold and barren pass. The hungry wolf launched an attack without hesitation, and the border was in a hurry. After hearing the news, the emperor was panicked and summoned the ministers to discuss countermeasures. Finally, at the instigation of a fool, he decided to lead the army in person, mobilized 200,000 troops, and set off without any preparation..."

Li Jiancheng said in amazement: "Mobilize 200,000 troops and go to war without any preparation? Isn't that a joke? Where is his ministers? None of them stood up to stop him?"

"No, not one. Because the idiot who encouraged him to lead the army in person was the person he trusted the most. In fact, it controlled the empire and influenced the will of the emperor. The emperor could not listen to what the ministers said, so the ministers chose to remain silent." Chen Ying smiled bitterly.

"Then this emperor is in danger." Li Jiancheng vaguely made up Chen Ying's story and pointed out, but he couldn't understand what Chen Ying really meant.
Chapter completed!
