Chapter 507: Channel

Zhong Liqing was silent for a long time. He came to Zhu Yunwen and said, "Emperor, there are actually other methods. The feasibility is very high, but you have to take some risks."

Zhu Yunwen asked, "What method, please tell me."

Zhongli Qing said seriously, "I have read some travel notes of strange people. I found that under the Ming Dynasty, there were some small countries that were uncivilized, some of which occupied many waterways. We only need to let the fleet enter the Western Regions from the waterways of those small countries, and then land, and we can break through the Western Regions in one fell swoop."

"There are three problems. First, the Western Regions are located in a desert area. It takes time for a fleet to reach the Western Regions and cannot directly reach the destination. The army still needs to march. Second, these fleets naturally cannot be the Ming army. So which country's fleet should we use? Third, I have said that this is a travelogue of strange people. If it is fake, we will return without success and miss the fighter plane."

Zhu Yunwen looked at Zhong Liqing's confident expression. He knew that Zhong Liqing must have a solution. Zhu Yunwen asked, "So what are the solutions to these three problems?"

"The first point is not very difficult, and our army suddenly attacks, but can catch one of the countries in the Western Regions off guard. In the second point, we can find the British Empire that we contacted not long ago. Hehe, I believe they will definitely be willing to help. As for the third point, this is the point I worry most, because I have never been to those places, and I am not sure if this is true."

Zhu Yunwen continued Zhong Liqing, "The first point is very good, and the second point is, hehe, England and Spain have been fighting for hundreds of years because of the Silk Road problem. Now, they are given a chance to appear directly in the key areas of the Silk Road and block this place. The English Empire must be willing to help."

"I think so too." Zhongli Qing Tseng smiled, "But before that, we cannot expose our intentions, but use a helpful attitude to let the British fleet reach the Western Regions by using the channel. After that, we send people to inform Spain's trade team and let Spain also send people to us, and we can get the greatest benefit with the smallest efforts."

"It's the third point." Zhu Yunwen narrowed his eyes and said, "Do you remember the direction of the waterway? Draw it for me to see."

Zhongliqing didn't think much about it. He picked up a brush, briefly drew an Yunnan on the paper, and then drew other small countries below. Among them, a channel runs through all small countries and leads directly to the Western Regions. I have to say that Zhongliqing's memory is still quite good.

Zhu Yunwen smiled and said, "Not bad! Just do what you said, Zhongliqing, you did not disappoint me."

Zhongliqing was stunned, "Emperor... Emperor, we have not yet verified the accuracy of this channel. Rampant action may backfire. At that time, England will think we are cheating them."

"No, no," Zhu Yunwen said confidently, "I'm sure that this channel you drew is true."

Zhong Liqing asked in confusion, "Has the Emperor been to these places in person? Or have anyone ever been to the empire?" Even Hua Xirui, who was behind Zhu Yunwen, looked at Zhu Yunwen in surprise. He followed Zhu Yunwen on his trip to Yunnan, and he had never heard of Zhu Yunwen leaving Yunnan for a small country below Yunnan.

Zhu Yunwen smiled mysteriously, "Keep it secret, but you just need to know that the one you drew is completely correct."

Thinking that Zhu Yunwen had never spoken nonsense, Zhongli nodded, "Since that's the case, how should we announce it and notify the people from England?"

"No." Zhu Yunwen frowned and said, "The fewer people know about this, the better. We must secretly inform the English people in my name."

Zhongliqing could also understand Zhu Yunwen's thoughts. Indeed, the more people, the easier it is to leak them. If the English people know the Ming Dynasty's thoughts, I'm afraid they will withdraw their troops in anger.

"When will we tell them?"

Zhu Yunwen said, "The faster the better. We must calculate the time for England to consider and the time for returning to England to dispatch troops."

"Then let's go tomorrow." Zhong Liqing said, "It's not too late for this matter."

Zhu Yunwen looked at Zhong Liqing seriously, "I will give this matter to you at all. If you go to find someone from England and convey my ideas, I will give you the imperial edict and the emperor's seal later."

"Me?" Zhong Liqing pointed at himself in disbelief and said, "Your Majesty, you haven't seen it. I was so angry that I blushed because of that little thing. Now I have arranged such an important task to negotiate with people from England. Isn't this difficult for me?"

Zhu Yunwen looked at Zhong Liqing deeply, "I believe you, you will definitely be able to accomplish it. Zhong Liqing, when did you become so stupid and timid in your work?"

Zhongliqing's expression was refreshed, and he pursed his lips, "Okay! I'll take on this errand today. Your Majesty, if I messed up, don't blame me!"

"Absolutely not blame!" Zhu Yunwen said seriously, "Even if you make a mess in the end, I won't blame you for any fault." Zhu Yunwen used me here, representing his trust in Zhongliqing.

Those who really do great things must be able to stand up at critical moments. This is what Han Xin is like. No one thought he could order a million troops before, but in the end, he did it. Zhu Yunwen saw Han Xin's momentum from Zhongliqing.

In other words, Zhongliqing, a person who is happy and angry and laughing, is even more terrifying than Han Xin. If you leave this matter to Zhongliqing, Zhu Yunwen dares!

Zhu Yunwen stood up, and Hua Xirui took out an imperial edict without any writing at Zhu Yunwen's instructions. Zhu Yunwen solemnly wrote down the content: Spain today blocked the land Silk Road and blocked the land trade between the Ming Dynasty and England. The finances of England were shortened by half. Today, the Ming Dynasty entrusted England today to provide a waterway, and you will march!

After writing, Zhu Yunwen handed over the imperial edict to Zhongliqing. "There are very few writings, but Richard is a smart person, and he will understand." As he said that, Zhu Yunwen took out the seal he carried with him, "This is the seal of the emperor. In the territory of the Ming Dynasty, no matter where you go, no matter what official you are, you will behead you at will, no one dares to touch you at all."

Hua Xirui was a little surprised. She understood how important the emperor's seal was. She didn't expect that Zhu Yunwen would hand over this thing to Zhongli Qing now.

Zhongliqing solemnly took over the seal and imperial edict, and he knelt down and said, "I will be sure to fulfill my mission!"
