  In the early spring, there was still a lingering chill in the imperial capital, but in a low-key and luxurious mansion, a group of people were like ants on a hot pot, anxious and looking forward to it.

   "Master Fan is back."

  Accompanied by a pass, everyone stood up and looked at the door in unison.

   Not long after, an old man wearing a scarlet official robe with a beautiful crane embroidered on his chest stepped through the door without any haste, his face as calm as water showed no emotion at all.

   "Lord Fan, how are you? Has Your Majesty let go?"

   Bathed in the hot eyes of everyone, Fan Zhengyuan gently twisted his beard and shook his head dignifiedly.

   "Your Majesty still doesn't want to borrow money from [San Jinlian]."

   "Damn it! We've already brought the monthly interest to 19%, why doesn't your majesty borrow it?"

   "That's right! If it weren't for our sincere patriotism, how could we give such cheap interest? Your Majesty really doesn't know how to do it..."

  Waving his fist angrily, the blurted words paused on his lips, and the speaker reacted instantly under the reminder of his companion's eyes, and changed his words in discouragement.

   "...a good heart..."

   "Ahem, the treasury is empty, and His Majesty refuses to borrow money, so how will this war be fought? It is impossible to conjure up big gold circles out of thin air, right?"

  Changing the topic calmly, everyone in the room looked at Fan Zhengyuan, with greed appearing in their eyes.

   One shot of the cannon, ten thousand taels of gold!

  Even if most of the military expenditure will be lost before leaving Beijing, the rest is enough for them to eat their stomachs and brains, and their mouths will be full of oil!

  Looking at their expectant eyes, Fan Zhengyuan let out a long and heavy sigh.

   "Your Majesty wants to collect [business tax] [mine tax] [salt tax] for military funding."

  Boom~

  The seat was knocked down by the rioting crowd, everyone looked at Fan Zhengyuan in disbelief.

   "Tyrant! He actually disregards the common people and competes with the people for profit!"

   "I, Damin, have been hiding wealth from the people for hundreds of years, and it is only now that I am prosperous today. Your Majesty is so perverse, hurting and abusing the people, isn't he afraid of what the world says?"

   "Increasing taxes and accumulating money, cutting off the people, this policy must not be opened, otherwise the country will decline and the catastrophe of China will not be far away!"

  ...

  Listening to the angry roar of the crowd, Fan Zhengyuan rubbed his brows in pain and waved his hands lightly.

   "Okay, I understand the truth, but the key question now is where the money will come from! The treasury is already empty enough to run mice!"

  "The sage doesn't talk about profit, but only about righteousness. My Emperor Damin is the lord of the central destiny. How can he take away the people's business and **** the marrow?!"

   "It's the extreme, it's the extreme. The sage governs by doing nothing. Naturally, the government is in harmony with the people, and the world is peaceful. Your Majesty is going the wrong way!"

   "In short, this tyranny must not be allowed to pass, otherwise the sky will be angry, people will complain, and the country will die, and we will all be responsible!"

  ...

  The twittering and chattering made Fan Zhengyuan's brain ache, he waved his hand helplessly and interrupted.

   "Okay, now His Majesty is determined to collect [Industrial and Commercial Tax], if you don't have a good solution, I'm afraid we won't be able to stop it in the court!"

   "..."

  After a long silence, one person let out a faint sigh.

   "Your Majesty refuses to borrow money, and wants to carve out the common people, it really makes me very embarrassed..."

  Hearing this, Fan Zhengyuan looked at the tall and tall figure hidden in the crowd, and felt a little solemn in his heart.

Dressed in a classic Western gentleman's dress, a gorgeous black tuxedo inlaid with gold, a bolo-style cross tie at the neckline, a gold monocle on his face, a black civilized stick in one hand, and a large bright and attractive gold circle in the other , Just looking at him, Fan Zhengyuan's pupils couldn't help being in a trance.

   "Chairman Kong Fang, why are you here?"

   "Hey... I heard that the country is in turmoil. Although I have no strength to restrain the chicken, I have a heart to serve the country. Now I am the chairman of Damin Shengjin Union. I wanted to share your worries, but your majesty doesn't appreciate it..."

   Clenching the big gold circle in his hand, Kong Fang sighed in pain.

   "Chairman Kong Fang has a heart, your majesty will definitely feel your patriotic heart."

   "Oh... Master Fan, don't need to comfort me. Your Majesty must have been deceived by treacherous ministers if you want to go your own way. I only hope that you loyal and virtuous people will punish **** and eradicate evil as soon as possible, so that everyone will be prosperous and the world will be restored to Damin!"

  Looking at the gray-haired Fan Zhengyuan, Kong Fang bowed deeply respectfully.

"please."

  Seeing his actions, everyone in the room bowed in unison.

"please!"

   "Chairman Kong Fang is **** me off!"

  Holding his wrist to help him up quickly, Fan Zhengyuan was very moved.

   Such a sincere and patriotic person, how could His Majesty have the heart to reject him... Isn't it just to borrow some money, I, Da Min, is rich in the world, and I can pay off any tax...

   After expressing emotion, Fan Zhengyuan cheered up and carefully discussed the countermeasures with everyone.

   "Since your Majesty refuses to borrow money, you can only levy new taxes. At the end of the agricultural business, I think a new agricultural tax should be levied!"

   "That's right, merchant Liwei, with a small population, can't collect much tax. Only agricultural tax can solve the urgent need!"

  ...

   Listening to their discussion calmly, Fan Zhengyuan frowned hesitantly.

   "But the poor peasants in the world are already complaining. If the agricultural tax is increased, will it stir up civil uprisings?"

   In fact, Fan Zhengyuan has already said it very euphemistically. The current situation is not full of complaints, but the rebels are everywhere!

  If the agricultural tax is added, I am afraid that even Zhili will have turmoil...

   "I, Damin, has been raising farmers for hundreds of years and has kept wealth for the people. Now is the time for them to serve the country!"

   "That's right, it's just suffering for the common people temporarily, and the good days are yet to come!"

  …………

  哗啦哗啦~

  The bow of the ship splits the waves, and the huge fleet moves forward in the dense fog like ghosts, like predators lurking in the shadows, quietly approaching their prey.

   "Is this fog often like this?"

  Standing on the deck, Zhao Yinshun took a deep breath, and the clear water vapor rich in aura poured into his lungs, as if an ice spring nourished his heart.

   "Yes, there is often such an aura mist in the sea of ​​smoke. It is so thick that it seems to be covered by smoke and dust, so it is named [sea of ​​smoke]."

   Cen Xing stood behind the boy, and replied respectfully.

   "No wonder those pirates hid their lair here. It is indeed a good place. If it weren't for Yani's glasses, it would be really hard to find..."

  Looking at the depths of the mist with dark eyes, under the [high-dimensional vision], a looming outline of an island has gradually entered Zhao Yinshun's pupils.

   "The Changqin Islands are actually not difficult to find, but the spiritual perception and compass in the sea of ​​smoke are disturbed by some kind of force, and it is easy to get lost."

   "What the **** is the interference?"

   "It's not very clear. It's been the same since ancient times. There is a guess that there are water veins on the seabed and earth veins that meet, producing some kind of supernatural power."

  ...

  During the chat, the island in front was already clearly visible, and the ferocious steel giant ship cut through the thick fog, and the island suddenly screamed.

   "It's not that big, there don't seem to be many people..."

  Looking at the small island with a diameter of only a few kilometers, Zhao Yinshun lost interest.

   "This is just the outskirts of the archipelago. If you continue to go north, there are more than a dozen main islands that are quite large. Yanhai County used to set up a county here..."

  Whispering softly in the boy's ear, while Cen Xing was speaking, the muzzle of the fleet slowly raised, firing a salvo at the island.

  Boom!

  The intense flames almost covered the entire island. After the brutal gunpowder smoke, only devastated scorched earth remained, densely packed with bomb craters all over the island, and all buildings were razed to the ground.

   "It seems that there are still a few small broken ships in the port, which is better than nothing..."

The huge fleet passed by the island without slowing down, and while passing by, Zhao Yinshun saw the surviving boats in the port sailing, and seemed to want to escape, so he lazily raised his left hand, pointing like a sword, separated Swipe lightly across a long distance.

  呲~

  The invisible sword slashed across the sea, and silently cut off the decks of several ships. When the strong wind blew, like cans that had been opened, the decks and masts fell down together, exposing the space inside the cabin to the air.

   His deep vision clearly captured the stunned expressions of the pirates, Zhao Yinshun couldn't help pursing his lips, and left them behind along with the battleship.

  Several Tier 3 destroyers and transport ships immediately left the formation and approached the island. Soon the wolf-like army landed on land and completely occupied the island.

"The Changqin Islands happen to be distributed along the waterway from [Guanhe Port] to the southernmost tip of Liaozhou, like a chain that divides the sea of ​​smoke into two parts. If we build a transit base for the navy here, then we can advance, attack and retreat. , will have a huge impact on the form of the next war."

   Watching Cen Xing gesturing on the chart, Zhao Yinshun nodded leisurely, and couldn't help but let out a long sigh in his heart.

  Continentalism kills people. They don’t pay attention to the ocean at all. Even such an important strategic place is allowed to be occupied by pirates. If this country can do well, there will be ghosts!

   If it is occupied by Western powers in the future, it will be a sharp knife on Damin's throat, and the entire northern part of the empire will be under the gun!

  If you want to make an inconspicuous comparison, in the previous life, there was an ugly country’s naval base on the Bohai Sea, which was only one or two hundred kilometers away from Jinmen. I asked you if you were afraid?

  With lingering fears in his heart, Zhao Yinshun breathed a sigh of relief, and Zhao Yinshun couldn't help but rejoice. Fortunately, in this era, the countries in the East don't seem to pay much attention to the sea, and each person is closed to the outside world.

   However, the powers of Western and Western powers that value the sea have not yet expanded in Nanyang, otherwise, how could such a key strategic location fall into their own hands?

   While he was feeling emotional, Zhao Yinshun suddenly sensed something, and suddenly raised his head and looked to the east.

   woo~~

  In the dark, a distant roar came from the depths of the ocean, and the undisguised idea of ​​demonstration came into his mind, deterring Zhao Yinshun from approaching.

  Looking up at the invisible shadow of the dark gold and black dragon above the fleet, Zhao Yinshun pursed his lips as if realizing something.

  The air induction between mythical creatures...

  The corner of his mouth raised an excited and bloodthirsty smile, and the boy in white waved his hand.

   "Turn, head east!"

   "Follow the order!"

  Cen Xing beside him clasped his fists anxiously and excitedly. With the transmission of his divine thoughts, the huge fleet slowly turned, drew a huge arc, and gradually accelerated towards the east.

Roar!

  The changes in the real world are projected to the spiritual world, and the sinuous and majestic dark gold black dragon stretches its body, letting out a brutal and ferocious roar, as if responding to a distant provocation.

   Woo~~~~

  Received the black dragon's response, a more vigorous and deep roar came from a distance, vaguely, as if the entire sea was shaking and trembling.

   "Don't be nervous, I will shoot."

  Patting Cen Xing's shoulder, feeling her excitement and trembling, Zhao Yinshun smiled lightly and comforted her.

  Hoo~

  Hearing this, Cen Xing took a slow and deep breath, his agitated and trembling body gradually calmed down, and only determination remained in his eyes.

   "It's as fast as the wind!"

  Extraordinary power enveloped the entire fleet, thousands of tons of steel warships switched to steam power, accelerated continuously, and rushed all the way towards the target.

  Water vapor slapped on his face, Zhao Yinshun stared forward, his bored and lazy eyes slowly faded away, and the mysterious purple awns spread from the depths of his pupils, soaking the whole pupils little by little.

   I don’t know which dragon beast broke through the gate, I hope it’s not too difficult...

   "Woo~"

   While meditating, a wet tongue licked his face, Zhao Yinshun turned his head to look at Ao Baibai who was pacing restlessly, and rubbed its head lightly.

   "Don't be afraid, go play in the sea for a while, it may take a long time to decide the winner..."

   "Woo~~"

   "Okay, if I really can't win, I will ride you..."

  Unable to laugh or cry, he rubbed the horse's face, Zhao Yinshun patted Ao Baibai's butt, and pushed him off the boat.

  When looking east again, the huge sense of threat is getting closer, it seems that the other party is also swimming towards them at full speed.

  Hoo~

   Breathing out a foul breath, the corners of Zhao Yinshun's mouth raised slightly uncontrollably, and there was long-lost excitement in his eyes.

   It’s been a long time since I’ve felt the excitement of dancing on the tip of a knife. The recent leeks are not very powerful and lack of challenge. Finally, there is an opponent strong enough to let me fully release my strength. Let’s see how strong I am...

   Staring at the palm, Zhao Yinshun slowly clenched his fist, feeling the roaring violent power in his body, closed his eyes intoxicated, and took a deep breath.

  When he opened his eyes again, the pupils filled with purple awns were left with nothing but emptiness, and his cold and gloomy vision penetrated the long time and space, and he glimpsed the huge and magnificent divine aura.

   "Cen Xing."

   "The subordinate is here!"

   "Ready to engage."

"Yes!"

  唰~

   With a little tiptoe, a bowl-shaped cloud of sonic boom exploded in front of the white-clothed boy, and his slender and tall body instantly disappeared in place.

   The violent speed pulled out a straight trajectory in the faint mist, and the terrifying strong wind pressure spread towards the surroundings, forming a hollow "tunnel" with a diameter of tens of meters.

  Tens of seconds later, there was a terrifying loud noise in front, like two peaks colliding. The dull sonic boom and the shock wave arrived together, blowing away the aura mist in a radius of more than ten miles, revealing a bright and cloudless sky.

  The aftermath of the energy impacted the aura barrier of the fleet, and the dense lines visible to the naked eye continued to spread like water waves, constantly dispersing and tilting the force suffered in front.

   Immediately, monstrous waves invaded, and the huge fleet was like a flat boat in a storm, oscillating back and forth with the waves more than ten meters high.

However, guarded by thick blood demons, although hundreds of battleships seem to be in distress, they are actually firmly nailed to the surface of the sea, and even raised their muzzles a little bit, aiming at the terrifying black mountain like a dozen miles away. film.
