During the cold time, Xiong Wenqing arrived.

Governor Bear was very straightforward. As soon as the guard got on the ship, he immediately ordered the ship to start.

I don't give these two brothers any chance to speak.

Naturally, Liu Mingqi and Liu Mingjing would not go against him, as this matter has become a foregone conclusion.

They have already worked so hard in Jinzhou City. Can they work in Ningyuan City again?

Not to mention that Ningyuan City is far less dangerous than Jinzhou City before, even so, Liu Mingqi is still outside the city now, and no one dares to put him in.

Even Fang Lei would not let him board the hot air balloon.

So the two of them sat on the boat safely and headed straight to Qinhuangdao Port along Liaodong Bay.

The next morning, Liu Mingqi and Li Suji had breakfast, sang "Call" to the little girl again, and then left the cabin to get out of the cabin for ventilation.

The little girl is very obsessed with "Call" and because of this song, she feels that she has a special relationship with Liu Mingqi, which is more natural than the previous two days.

When he arrived at the deck, Liu Mingqi saw Xiong Wenqing standing there watching the mountains on the shore.

"Uncle Xiong, it's early!" the young man stepped forward and said hello.

That's how he and Liu Mingjing call Xiong Wenqing, because Xiong Dabao is their good friend.

Now we are good comrades who have experienced life and death together, and of course the relationship is even more different.

Xiong Wenqing naturally refused to accept this title, so he turned around and bowed: "Your Highness, you are early!"

"Don't be so polite." Liu Mingqi smiled and came to his side, "What? I'm still thinking about Ningyuan City and Jinzhou City?"

"Yes."

Xiong Wenqing said in the first half of a year: "It's like a dream when I think about it after thinking about it! Especially the battles on the western Liaoning Corridor, I haven't reacted yet. I was thinking in my heart, is it over? It's really over? Will there be any accidents? What should I do if Jinzhou City is lost?..."

Xiong Wenqing's idea is the most normal one.

In fact, giving up Jinzhou City’s approach seems undesirable to many people.

After all, it only takes another half a month to twenty days, and when it starts to snow and the attack becomes increasingly difficult, Jinzhou City will be safe.

Even Liao Shicong thought so himself.

However, Liu Mingqi's ability to fool people is not ordinary. With his previous brave performance and various strategies and plans, Liao Shicong and Zhang Qin finally agreed to give up the plan.

No one, including Xiong Wenqing, could not suspect that Liu Mingqi gave up Jinzhou City because she was greedy for life and feared death.

They all planted flags on Jinzhou City, and used their lives to attract Shiwei people to attack him. They have decided to live and die with Jinzhou City. Whatever you say is he afraid of is simply an insult to His Highness, De.

So now Xiong Wenqing is just thinking, how much impact will such an important city be on Dakang if it is lost, and how can it be made up for it?

With Ningyuan City alone, can we resist the attack of Wei Lianjun in the future?

There is no other buffer behind Ningyuan City, and Shanhaiguan is directly behind it.

This is what Xiong Wenqing is most worried about.

The boy nodded, "Sometimes he bravely retreats just to move forward with great strides. Although we have lost Jinzhou City now, as long as we can get through this level, it will definitely return to our arms in the future!

No, not only Jinzhou City, we also need to build the border fortress to the Liaodong Peninsula, and also plant our Dakang flag in Fengtian City!"

Xiong Wenqing laughed as he heard this, "Your wish is really great! I hope there will be such a day!"

"This is not my blind optimism." Liu Mingqi said, "Almost all Central Plains dynasties have their own decay. Our Dakang is far from that time. As long as we can follow my expectations, we can not only avenge Shi Wei, Qi Yan, Japan, Uighurs, Western Qiang, and Nanzhao, and we can't escape."

"With such a big plan, do you know how much food, how much military supplies you need to consume, how many soldiers' lives?" Xiong Wenqing frowned and said, "Can you get it?"

"For Dakang, there is no problem that can't be paid for the defense of the country. This cannot be measured by money!" Liu Mingqi said casually: "Although our Dakang is big, there is no extra inch of land! Whoever dares to occupy a part of our land will inevitably cause a blow from our storm!"

Xiong Wenqing smiled.

He no longer argues with Liu Mingqi about this.

After all, what Liu Mingqi said was right, but she didn't consider the actual issues.

As one of the future decision makers of a country, he cannot be as impulsive as a young man.

Otherwise, although Dakang is great, how many total wars can it support?

However, Liu Mingqi's vigorous vitality as a young man still made Xiong Wenqing very envious.

Young people must dare to fight, fight and think, this is what young people should be like.

Including his son Xiong Dabao, the courage, fearlessness, calmness, tenacity, etc. that he showed during this war, also made Xiong Wenqing look at his son with admiration when he was very pleased.

If such a son continues like this, he will definitely be one of the best generals in Dakang. A general of the Imperial Guards is no problem at all!

Isn’t it just that a father hopes that his son can have a future?

Xiong Wenqing is now very satisfied with his son, especially since he knew that Xiong Wenqing had fought so many tough battles under the command of Liu Mingqi, he felt more respect for Liu Mingqi.

Yes.

This is also the reason why Xiong Wenqing talked to Liu Mingqi about these military and national affairs.

In his heart, Liu Mingqi is no longer the simple academic saint, but a natural military genius and strategic genius!

Not to mention anything else, the series of battles planned by Liu Mingqi, involving the entire Liaoxi Corridor, involving a total of more than 300,000 people participating in the war is simply not something that ordinary people can plan.

Xiong Wenqing himself can't do it. He believes that few people in the world can do it.

Thinking that His Highness De can be in charge of the world for at least fifty years in the future, Xiong Wenqing felt at ease.

However, this highness’s slightly radical attitude still needs to be honed slowly!

It is too hasty to defeat the six forces so anxiously!

While he was thinking, Liu Mingqi said to him again: "Uncle Xiong, I don't know when I will come out this time. I told you last night that I would help you deal with the business with Baekje! Remember that the 50,000 sets of military supplies I promised them, must not be missing."

Xiong Wenqing said, "Don't worry, Your Highness! Although all the inventory in Jinzhou City was given to Ningyuan City this time, we still have a large amount of military supplies in Hebei and Shanhaiguan, and it is more than enough to supply them."

"Well, you don't have to give it to me at once. Anyway, they are not in a hurry to rebel. It's enough to give it to me within a year." Liu Mingqi said, "But they don't have to lose any of the things they promised us! Our Dakang also needs more business to make money and make up for our losses!"

"Your Highness is very true! I will definitely pay attention to the deal with them."

Xiong Wenqing also agreed with Liu Mingqi's words.

As the Governor of the Gyeonggi, now in charge of military affairs in Shanhaiguan and Hebei, he certainly knows the importance of firewood, rice, oil and salt.

Those who are just idealistic, if they do not pay attention to these basic common sense, they will definitely cause very serious consequences.

Only when the food is sufficient, the food and wages are enough, and all kinds of materials are ready, will the Dakang army be more brave to defend the country.

As for the dealings with Dakang, some Baekje Maritime Merchant with strange identities, or even pirates, that's not a problem at all.

...

While Liu Mingqi and Xiong Wenqing were chatting on the boat, there was already a lot of joy in the capital.

The city was filled with the shouting sounds of the yamen runners of the Imperial Palace after gongs and drums.

"Good news! Great news!"

"After the great victory in Jinzhou City, our Dakang army cooperated inside and outside to defeat the Wei army under Ningyuan City 200,000! Killing and wounding more than 100,000 people, and capturing more than 20,000 people alive!"

"After these two battles, more than 400,000 people have been killed or injured in the western Liaoning Corridor! Our Dakang army has won thousands of victories!"

"The danger of the western Liaoning Corridor has been completely lifted, and since then, there will be no danger in the northeastern border of Dakang!"

"Don't worry anymore! Our capital is safe! Don't worry!"

“…”

"Crackling..."

Not only were there any good news from the yamen runners, but the happy residents, well, should be the rich and nobles, all lit firecrackers at their doorsteps.

Especially the Prince Yu Mansion, Prince De Mansion, and the door of their shops, it was so loud and refreshing!

When people walked through those shops, their ears were almost not deaf.

But everyone did not complain at all, but cheered happily.

They have been suppressing for so long, and seeing the country being attacked by the enemy from all directions, this kind of frustration and discomfort is beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

Especially the people in the capital, they always feel that they are people under the feet of the emperor, so they have an inexplicable feeling of "ownership".

If Dakang perishes, they will feel very sad.

Now in just five days, two great news came in one breath. Dakang's most powerful opponent, Shi Wei, lost 400,000 lives and ran away in shame. This is really proud!

Such happiness is even more joyful and encouraging than the good news from Jiangnan a month ago.

After all, everyone knows that even if the Japanese pirates can run rampant for a while, they will not be able to occupy Jiangnan for a long time.

Only a super evil tiger like Shi Wei has the ambition and strength to swallow the whole world.

Now that Shi Wei has suffered heavy losses, the border can be stable for another five or ten years.

It means that everyone can live a stable life again.

Of course, they are not completely safe yet.

Because just separated from Gansu, Shaanxi, the 300,000 troops of the Uighurs and the Western Qiang were still stalemates with the Dakang army and were constantly engaging in small-scale wars!
