My wife is number one in the world

Chapter 3798 Don’t act too hastily

Liu Mingzhi chuckled and nodded, then raised his hand and casually pointed at the chairs in the study.

"My dear ministers, please stop standing and take your seats."

"Yes, thank you Your Majesty."

Song Qing, Zhang Kuang, Wanyan Chizha and the others all clasped their fists towards Young Master Liu at the same time, then moved towards the chairs placed on both sides.

Liu Mingzhi looked at the generals who were dispersing to both sides. He raised the pipe in his hand and took a light puff of the tobacco. Then he looked at Liu Song who was standing at the threshold holding a tray with a smile.

"Liusong, serve tea to all the nobles."

"Yes, I will obey, little one."

Liu Song nodded with a smile on his face, and immediately walked straight towards Song Qing and his group who had just sat down on the chairs with the tray in his hand.

Seeing this, Song Qing quickly stood up from his chair again, then he stretched out his hands with a smile and took two pots of tea from the tray in Liu Song's hand.

Then, he immediately turned around and gestured towards Young Master Liu's desk with his lips pursed.

"Brother Liu Song, we can just pour the tea ourselves. You can go pour tea for His Majesty first."

Liu Song looked at Song Qing who had already picked up two pots of tea, and nodded hesitantly.

"Well, well, that's rude of me."

"It should, it should."

Liu Song nodded slightly, took down two stacks of teacups and placed them on the table next to Song Qing, then immediately walked towards Young Master Liu's desk.

Song Qing first placed the teapot in his right hand on the table beside him, then raised the teapot in his left hand with a smile and gestured to Cheng Kai, Ning Chao and others sitting opposite him.

"Brother Cheng Kai, this is yours."

As soon as Song Qing raised the teapot to signal, Cheng Kai hurriedly stood up from his chair and went to greet him.

As soon as Song Qing finished speaking with a smile, Cheng Kai took the teapot in his hands, and then he picked up a stack of teacups from the table.

"King Wuyi, thank you very much."

"Go drink your tea, sir."

Song Qing listened to Cheng Kai's joking words, pretended to be annoyed and cursed Cheng Kai, then glanced sideways at the situation over there at Liu Song.

When he saw that Liu Song had already poured a cup of tea for Young Master Liu, he sat down again with a smile, picked up the teapot and filled himself with a cup of tea.

"My two uncles, my seniors, and my brothers, I will not pour tea for you one by one. Let's pass it on."

"Okay, okay, I can do it myself."

Zhang Kuang chuckled and nodded. He picked up the kettle and poured himself a cup of tea. Then he immediately passed the teapot and the remaining teacups to Nangong Ye who was sitting on the other side of him.

After a while, a cup of steaming tea was placed beside all the generals in the study.

"Master, tea."

"Put it aside for now."

"Yes."

After Master Liu took a long puff of the tobacco from his pipe, he smiled faintly and glanced at the dozen or so generals in the study.

"My dear friends."

"I'm waiting here."

Young Master Liu raised his hand to fan the smoke that was rising in front of him, and smiled at Zhang Kuang and Nangong Ye. "My two uncles, I told you about the food and grass matters two days ago. How are your preparations going?"

When Zhang Kuang and Nangong Ye heard the questions that Young Master Liu was asking them, they immediately raised their hands and punched Young Master Liu.

“Reporting to Your Majesty, after I returned that day, I immediately sent people to deliver golden eagle messages to the main generals stationed in various cities within the borders of the Arab Empire.

I made a rough estimate that the soldiers escorting the grain and fodder would set off in three days at the earliest and six or seven days at the latest from today.

After the generals of various departments have replied one by one, I will immediately send someone, uh, to personally deliver it to Your Majesty for your review."

"Very good, so very good."

Liu Mingzhi responded to Zhang Kuang with a faint smile and turned his gaze directly to Nangong Ye.

"Uncle, how about you?"

"Your Majesty, I have made unified arrangements with Brother Zhang.

However, Your Majesty, you also know that there is a huge gap between the India Kingdom that I, an old minister, am in charge of and the Arab Kingdom that Brother Zhang is in charge of.

As it is, the generals under my command will definitely not be as fast as Brother Zhang in terms of food and fodder.

The old minister made a rough estimate and it would take at least five days, and at most ten days, for the soldiers to escort the food and fodder and set off.

After the generals of various departments have replied, I will immediately send them to Your Majesty for your review."

After listening to Nangong Ye's answer, Liu Mingzhi silently took a big puff of his pipe, then leaned over slightly to knock out the ashes and remaining tobacco in the pipe bowl with his feet.

Then, he straightened up and looked at Zhang Kuang and Nangong Ye again.

"Two uncles."

"Is the old minister here, Your Majesty?"

"Is the old minister here, Your Majesty?"

Young Master Liu gently rolled the pipe in his hand, turned around and walked to the side. He stopped in front of the table where Liu Song had put down the tea before, then picked up the teacup on the table and brought it to his mouth.

"Shhhhhhhhhhh"

Young Master Liu blew gently on the tea in the cup a few times, nodded slightly, took a sip of the hot tea in the cup, then walked slowly towards Song Qing, Zhang Kuang, Nangong Ye and others.

"Uncles, the issue of food and fodder is certainly very important, but we cannot rush it.

If you act too hastily, it may backfire.

I still say what I said before. The transportation of grain and fodder must be kept secret as much as possible.

If you two commanders urge them too hastily, the soldiers will be eager to follow your orders and the noise they make will definitely be quite loud.

If that's the case, then what's the point of talking about secrets?
Secret, secret, of course the fewer people know about it, the more secret it is!

After you two go back today, immediately send someone to deliver a letter to the generals in charge of food and fodder in various cities in the two countries of Daqin and Tianzhu.

Tell them in the letter that they should not slack off in escorting the grain, but also not rush into it.

I will give them one month. Within one month, all the food and fodder must be sent on the road.

Even if the Golden Eagle letter is sent to the capital of our Great Dragon Dynasty, it will only take seven or eight days at the fastest, and about twenty days at the latest.

Now they are only in the territories of the Kingdom of Daqin and the Kingdom of India. I, the young master, will give them one month to prepare all matters, which is more than enough.

I am not the kind of person who acts on impulse and has no sympathy for the difficulties of the soldiers.

After you go back, send another letter immediately."
