In fact, Ichiro Watanabe was also incredible about the messenger's words just now.

No matter what, Zhao Chen is the King of Han of their Tang Dynasty.

Let yourself, an outsider, help them deal with their own people.

Ichiro Watanabe had never heard of such a thing.

At most, they had internal conflicts in Japan, but the Tang Dynasty actually had to use outsiders to deal with their own people.

However, the difficulty of understanding does not affect Ichiro Watanabe's attitude towards the Han King of the Tang Dynasty.

If he wanted to live comfortably here, he would have to make him unable to stay here by the people sent by the Tang Dynasty.

Otherwise, one day it will be his death date.

When the messenger heard Ichiro Watanabe's question, he just smiled slightly: "Master Watanabe may not know that Zhao Chen was originally just a country boy, but he was lucky enough to have his current status."

"Many officials in the Tang Dynasty could not bear him, but his power in the court was too great, and His Majesty the Tang Dynasty was deceived by it, so it was difficult to attack him."

"That's why I can only entrust Lord Watanabe to take action against him."

The messenger's explanation seemed to merely not credible at all.

Although he only heard Zhao Chen's name for the first time, the King of Han in the Tang Dynasty, no matter what, was also the emperor's son.

Just a country boy, can this guy say this?

Ichiro Watanabe just smiled and did not expose the words of the messenger in front of him.

He doesn't care about this.

But if anyone dares to come to Quanzhou Port to destroy himself, he will never let that person go.

"When I go back and tell your lord, I'll tell you that I already know."

"As long as Zhao Chen dares to go out to sea, I will not let him go back alive."

"But let your elders not forget what they promised me before." After Ichiro Watanabe said, he waved his hand to signal the messenger to leave.

The messenger didn't know what Ichiro Watanabe said that his elders agreed to.

However, his mission has been completed today. Now, as long as Zhao Chen dares to take people to sea, he will be dead.

...

A few days later.

Quanzhou Port.

Zhao Chen gathered 2,000 soldiers of the Qianzhou army led by Han Chong, as well as the 100 Xuanjia army he brought from Chang'an to a warship and prepared to set sail and sail.

Warships were modified by merchant ships.

After the founding of the Tang Dynasty, the sea was calm, so there was no real warship.

Thirty-three warships gathered at Quanzhou Port and could follow the main warship to sea at any time.

Considering the issue of commanding so many warships, Zhao Chen asked Han Chong to find many old captains in the city to help drive the warships last night.

Although the old captain could not fight, he was better than the soldiers of the Qianzhou Army who had never boarded the ship.

Among those warships, there is also a second-class warship.

This warship is also very large, but it is still a smaller one than the one commanded by Zhao Chen.

"General Han, my warship is fast, and I will set out first to attract the attention of Japanese ronin. Your warship is not fast enough, so follow up, how about?" Zhao Chen looked at Han Chong and asked.

Han Chong did not go to the main ship, but just stayed on the secondary warship to command. He knew very well that Zhao Chen actually just wanted to bear the brunt of the attacks that attracted Japanese ronin.

The Japanese pirates were very scattered and gathered on various islands. If they were not attracted to them all, they would not know how long it would take to wipe out the bandits.

It was just that Zhao Chen's warship was going to attract the enemy, which made Han Chong very worried.

Once Zhao Chen doesn’t respond in time, what problems does Zhao Chen have? How can he explain to the emperor?

A main warship is enough to deal with Japanese pirates scattered everywhere.

But once Japanese ronin gather everywhere, if they are too many, Zhao Chen may be under great pressure on the main warship, and he will need the assistance of other warships.

"Don't worry, it's just attracting, not fighting directly with them." Seeing Han Chong's face showing a worry, Zhao Chen knew what he was thinking, so he explained with a smile.

Although Han Chong is not good at naval battles, the principles of leading troops to fight are the same.

If no one attracted the attention of the Japanese ronin, those people would not have flowed out at all.

If they really have to search for islands one by one, they will never think about eliminating the Japanese ronin in their lives.

Although Han Chong was unwilling, there was no other good idea at the moment, so he had to say, "Your Highness, you can go there, and you will be following behind. But if you encounter danger, please make sure that your safety is the first priority.

, Never underestimate the enemy, avoid as much as possible, and never take risks."

Zhao Chen nodded and said, "I understand, by the way, General Han, I'll give this to you."

Han Chong took the thing handed over by Zhao Chen with some confusion.

It looks a bit strange.

The two mirrors are one in front and one behind, and there is a round bamboo tube in the middle. It is smoothly polished but also extremely simple.

It seems that it has just been done not long ago.

"Is this?" Han Chong looked at Zhao Chen with confusion. He had never seen such a strange thing before.

"You use your eyes to look into the distance through the lens." Zhao Chen pointed to the sea in the distance.

Han Chong was puzzled, but he also followed Zhao Chen's instructions and looked into the distance through the mirror in front of him.

"This..." Han Chong's scream made everyone around him look over curiously.

"What's wrong with General Han?" A soldier looked at Han Chong strangely.

But Han Chong's face was full of disbelief.

Even looking like a hell.

How could Han Chong not be surprised?

What did he see through the lens?

The seagulls on the sea surface at least five hundred meters away appeared clearly in front of him.

Even the feathers on his neck were clearly seen by him.

After he moved his eyes away, he saw nothing at all, and could only vaguely see a black shadow passing by in the distance.

"Your Highness, is this?" Han Chong looked at Zhao Chen with surprise.

But he tightly grabbed the telescope that Zhao Chen gave him.

I was afraid that someone would rob him.

This is the telescope that Zhao Chen made temporarily.

The lenses were made when the glass was burned very early, but they never had the chance to use them.

Nowadays, naval battles may occur, and telescopes are conducive to discovering the enemy situation in advance.

There are two telescopes in total, Zhao Chen himself, and the second one is handed over to Han Chong. Seeing Han Chong looking like he was a ghost, Zhao Chen smiled faintly and said, "This is called a telescope. You can see a very far place.

It works very well at sea, let's go first."

"Yes." Han Chong stood there blankly, and finally said only one word.

The main warship set sail quickly, left Quanzhou Port, and entered the sea.

The remaining warships, led by Han Chong's main ship, also left together.

The ship was filled with Qianzhou troops from the Tang Dynasty.

They are serious army, but fortunately, there are big rivers in Qianzhou, so they know the nature of water.

If it were a northern soldier, he would have fainted first when he got on the ship.

But I just don’t panic when I recognize the water nature. I have never conducted water training.
