Confused country poison concubine

Chapter 595 A detailed work (1)
"Shortcut?" Qiu Yebai was taken aback, looking at the sand table.

Baili Lingfeng poked somewhere on the sand table with the baton: "That's right, the shortcut is to take the sea route."

Mei Su also said: "Although the wind is not strong at this time of year, the wind direction is very good. If you sail along the water, if you take the sea route, I believe you will be able to reach the seaport in the eastern province of Guangdong within seven days."

Qiu Yebai looked at the sand table. Indeed, there are seaports in eastern Guangdong and southern Xinjiang. Looking at the sand table in this way, the sea route is much closer than the land route.

but……

"We have a navy or... can the navy transport food? Who is going to lead this batch of food?" Qiu Yebai turned around in his head several times when he heard this, and there was no such thing as the Tianji Empire having any outstanding water supplies. The impression of the army or navy is that I have heard gossip that pirates are rampant at sea, and the officers and soldiers along the coast are shackled on the shore.

This is not the same as fat meat delivered to your door with a few large boats of food when you are not picking up the food?

Back then when Emperor Zhenwu was still Emperor Xidi, Xidi's navy was very good, and the pirates all hid far away and were almost extinct. There are also legends that Emperor Zhenwu was exiled at sea before he inherited the throne of Xidi, and he himself was The biggest pirate king.

In other words, the navy of the Tianji Empire used to be exceptionally good, and even sailed to several nearby island countries.

However, prosperity must decline. Ever since the first generation of national teachers predicted that long voyages would bring evil spirits and disasters, the ever-prosperous sea transportation was banned more than a hundred years ago. Without sea transportation, the importance of the navy has been greatly weakened. Maintenance costs a lot, so it has been abolished to squeeze the scale.

Up to now, it has been reduced to a dispensable unit in the Ministry of War. There is a navy in the inland, but sailing in the sea and inland rivers are two different things. The main role of the inland navy is to maintain security and order on the canal. If she remembers correctly , Almost all of them are in the hands of the Mei family, no, Mei Su.

Now that she is listening to these words, Baili Lingfeng seems to want to...

"Mei Siyun will go first, but Mei Siyun is alone, and he is afraid of being powerless, so he needs a capable person to help." After Baili Lingfeng finished speaking, he looked at Qiu Yebai.

Qiu Yebai was stunned, and pointed to herself: "Marshal, the person you are talking about is...my seat?"

Not only Baili Lingfeng and his subordinates, but even Mei Su looked at her with a smile: "That's right."

"No." A cool voice suddenly remembered.

Everyone looked over together, only to find that the speaker was the masked man who had been silent before.

"It's not your turn..." Li Mu was annoyed, and just about to say something, he was swept away by his cold and deep eyes under his mask, which made him feel as if he was in a dark and cold void. , He froze all of a sudden, and swallowed the words abruptly, not daring to say a word.

The others seemed so inexplicable that they also felt the strange coldness, and no one dared to speak for Li Mu.

Qiu Yebai reached out and pressed Baili Chu's wrist, then looked at Baili Lingfeng, Mei Su and the others, and smiled mockingly: "Actually, you have already made a decision, you just came to inform me of the decision, right? "

Mei Su looked at her and smiled slightly: "My lord, that's over, aren't we discussing with you?"

"Marshal, can I talk to you alone?" Qiu Yebai glanced at Mei Su, and then said to Baili Lingfeng.

Baili Lingfeng and her looked at each other, nodded, and gestured in one direction: "This way please."

Baili Chu's eyes flickered slightly, but he didn't stop him, he just quietly watched them walk away together.

Qiu Yebai walked about [-] meters with Baili Lingfeng, she stopped, looked straight at Baili Lingfeng and said, "I don't trust Meisu."

"Don't trust Mei Siyun?" Baili Lingfeng looked at Qiu Yebai with an unpredictable expression: "Why?"

"According to the current situation of the Mei family and the Du family, the marshal should understand why, and you know better than me whether they will wholeheartedly assist you in this expedition." Qiu Yebai said coldly.

Baili Lingfeng raised his sword eyebrows: "Heh, is it true that the Qiujian army is treating a gentleman with a villain's heart? Why can't it be that Mr. Mei is in a difficult situation now, so he wants to find another way out?"

Qiu Yebai twitched the corners of her lips, and snorted lightly: "Marshal, you don't even believe what you say, so stop talking nonsense here."

Baili Lingfeng couldn't remember the first time he was told nonsense so bluntly, maybe it was the first time he went out with the army, the old Marshal Chang was so rude.

Now there is one more person.

He lowered his eyes to look at Qiu Yebai, and suddenly smiled slightly: "If the Qiu Jianjun doesn't trust Mei Siyun, does that mean you trust me?"

Qiu Yebai looked at him and returned the same smile: "No, I don't trust you either, so the marshal had better not try to kick me out of the army, and I'm not your subordinate, so I don't mind using it at all." One-vote veto power of the Overseer."

Although the supervisor of the army is not a military officer, he can control the power of the general and will not easily participate in the decision-making during wartime. Once he participates, it will represent the highest will of the emperor.

"Qiu Yebai, the battle situation and the overall situation should be the most important thing in your actions. Are you using His Highness Sheguo to suppress me?" Baili Lingfeng's face darkened, and he looked at her coldly.

Her smile also faded: "Marshal was joking, you and I have our own duties, you can choose to persuade me."

This person's purpose is too obvious. It seems that the overall situation is the most important thing. In fact, he just wants to find a suitable reason to throw her out of the army. Without her as an eye-catching supervisor, it will be convenient for him to do things.

She, a person who has never traveled by sea, even asked her to 'assist' Meisu?
"You..." Baili Lingfeng looked at Qiu Yebai and fell silent.

He knew that Qiu Yebai was difficult to deal with, and he saw it again today, but this was also within his prediction.

Baili Lingfeng suddenly smiled faintly: "Okay, I admit that I don't want people to get in the way by pretending to understand."

Seeing that Qiu Yebai was about to speak, he suddenly reached out his hand and made a silent gesture on her lips, but he didn't expect that his movements were a little too big, and Qiu Yebai just took another step forward, and just happened to rub against his cheek finger.

He was startled, only to feel that his fingertips were incredibly soft and plump.

Qiu Yebai took a step back in embarrassment, and said calmly, "Marshal?"

Baili Lingfeng was stunned for a moment before he came back to his senses and coughed lightly: "Just as Qiu Jianjun said..."

He paused, looked at her sharply and said, "I don't trust you either."

Qiu Yebai was not surprised at all, and said casually: "I'm glad you and I have reached an agreement on this point."

Baili Lingfeng chuckled sarcastically, but then his expression changed: "But this time, it is indeed necessary to make such an arrangement. The purpose of Meisu's willingness to donate the granary is absolutely impossible to be so simple, and the importance of food and grass Sex is a matter of life and death for the army and the dragon guards, and only you in the army have enough power and ability to resist and control Meisu."
