1964: Desperate Emotions

The earth dragon was burning very vigorously, and the room was as warm as spring. Through the glazed window, Qin Li watched the snowflakes falling lightly outside the window, and the ground had turned white. In this kind of weather, if you stay in a warm room, it would naturally be a beautiful scenery, but for those who were rushing outside to survive, it would be a destruction of the death of the Yama.

Since getting off the boat, Qin Li immediately became nervous, and every hair stood up, alerting to the risks around him. He had a large number of bank checks in his arms, but he did not dare to take them. His identity could not stand the inspection, and the check in his arms needed to be accepted at the bank of the person he pretended to be. When he really arrived at the place, his identity was immediately exposed.

He could only disappear immediately after entering the Ming realm.

I originally thought that I could easily return to Qi with a ghost stronghold located in Ming Dynasty, but I never expected that the stronghold I was the first to go to had been detected by the Ming people, and the Ming people's National Security Bureau was very patient and set up a long-term surveillance point there. If I were a little careless, I was afraid that I would have stayed in the prison cell of the National Security Bureau now.

But even so, he still aroused the other party's suspicion and then fled all the way.

As he kept evading or killing the trackers behind him, his importance continued to increase in the files of the National Security Bureau of the Ming Dynasty. Although the danger level not only increased, the people who pursued him were at a higher level and more and more people. Fortunately, his appearance changed drastically, and the other party did not expect that he was Qin Li for a while. Otherwise, it was a big deal to whether he could escape back.

Qin Li's heart was full of bitterness. This was a typical example of pulling one's body and urging it. A small action caused endless trouble.

The door of the room sounded lightly, and Cao Hui appeared at the door with a tray in his own hands. On the tray were several plates of exquisite side dishes and a pot of slightly steaming wine. The wine was filled with the heat, and Qin Li couldn't help swallowing.

"Are you greedy?" Cao Hui smiled and put the tray on the short table on the bed: "But Dr. Lu said, you are so deficient. You can't get enough fish and meat now. Even this wine is just rice wine. I remember that you like to drink it the most from Ming Guo. If you want to drink it, then get better soon."

"It's good to have the life to drink. Not to mention rice wine, even with some rotten water with a little smell of wine, I'm so sweet!" I took the steaming rice wine from Cao Hui, took a sip, sipped it in my mouth for a long time, then swallowed it, and my cold stomach seemed to warm up immediately.

Looking at Qin Li's appearance, Cao Hui said with emotion: "Thank you for your hard work. This trip is really a life-and-death death. I watched the things you brought back for a whole night last night. This morning, I had already sent it to Chang'an for 800 miles."

Qin Li nodded: "I just don't know if we are Daqi, do we have the raw materials to make this kind of hot tinder oil?"

"It should be." Cao Hui said: "After reading your description, I vaguely remember that in the Ghost's intelligence database, there was once a record of such a thing on the side of the birth of a daughter."

He raised his head and thought about the content of the information: "Some sticky black liquid poured out from the ground and could burn. It was used by local savages to keep warm, but many people died because of this. The savages thought it was a curse from heaven and no longer allowed their tribe to approach this area. After receiving this information, we also checked whether there were similar things in the territory of Daqi, and it seemed that they did not find it."

"Where is it that you are having a daughter? Isn't this another trouble?"

"No trouble." Cao Hui said: "The life of having a daughter is very hard now. You only need some food to get what we want. More importantly, the last time that the daughter Naoki attacked Chu land in Ming Dynasty, thousands of daughter Naoki have not survived. They have formed a stalemate with the Ming people. The prince has already sent people to discuss with them. The daughter Naoki will form another army to join the army sequence of the Daqi army to fight with us."

"That would be great." Qin Li Zhanyan said.

After accompanying Qin Li to drink a glass of rice wine, Cao Hui said: "Tell me about the Tiger Dynasty, how strong is it?"

Qin Li said: "The Tiger Dynasty is a huge empire in the Western Continent. Their king Dan fought in the west for decades, unified the Western Continent, suppressed all his forces and established a unified country."

"How strong is ours?" Cao Hui asked.

Qin Li thought for a while and sighed: "Although I don't want to admit it, I still have to tell the truth. Just about national strength, I'm afraid they are stronger than our Daqi. Their army has been fighting for decades and its combat power is quite strong."

Cao Hui's hand shook slightly, and some rice wine spilled out of the cup.

"How could it be defeated in the hands of Mingren? Is it because of Mingren's artillery and steam warships?"

"It can be said that, right?" Qin Li sighed: "But this is only one aspect. When I left, the Ming people did not have these things. It seems that at that time, they had just had a steam engine. Why did the appearance of war have become completely out of my mind in just a few years?"

"Because the steam engine is the basis of all this development." Cao Hui said sadly: "It's not just that you didn't expect, even if I, a person who stares at Ming Kingdom every day, never thought that the Ming people would change three times a day."

"If I had known this, I might have made some more changes. Unfortunately, we didn't know at all. So when the Tiger Dynasty arrived in Manila ignorantly, everything was destined to be unchanged." Qin Li said helplessly: "Hundreds of warships and hundreds of thousands of soldiers, they were defeated in a short period of time."

"Hundreds of warships and hundreds of thousands of soldiers!" This time Cao Hui really changed his face. He always thought that the eastern expedition of the Tiger Dynasty was not great. "Isn't this a huge mobilization of the country?"

"That's right!" Qin Li said: "The Tiger Dynasty is very different from our Eastern Continent in terms of political system. Strictly speaking, whoever has a big fist is right. Although Danxi established a unified Tiger Dynasty, the city-states under its command have their own private troops. This time, in addition to Danxi's personal army, there are also some local grand dukes with great power, similar to our princes, who were also forced to fight together. However, there are many who stay in the country."

"Just like this?" Cao Hui's face was gloomy and clear.

"The Ming people seemed to have expected that the Tiger Dynasty would come, and set up a trap in advance and built a solid defense line. Their warships were even more rampant at the sea. With just dozens of steam artillery warships, hundreds of sail warships from the Tiger Dynasty were buried on the sea." Qin Li shook his head. "Although it was miserable, it would not be destroyed. On land, their army and the Ming people could still confront each other. Only Dance's personal army was completely wiped out. Even Dance himself was surrounded and died in a foreign land with illness. The other two powerful forces, I'm afraid you really can't think of how Qin Feng dealt with them."

"Would you let them go back?" Cao Hui asked.

"That's true." Qin Li said quietly: "They killed Danxi, but released the two most powerful local lords. Not only did they release them, but they also gave weapons and ships. They were extremely enthusiastic."

Cao Hui was stunned for a moment and suddenly realized: "In other words, the Tiger Dynasty will inevitably fall apart in the future. Everyone will covet the position of Danxi. I think Danxi's own successor is not that strong."

"That's it. The Western Continent will no longer have any more energy to have any ideas about the East. Instead, they will fight for the support of the Ming people. How could the Ming Kingdom let go of such a great opportunity? They inserted their hands deeply into the Western Continent without any effort, and used their money, caravans, and arms to become the ones who truly control the huge territory." Qin Li looked at Cao Hui with the same bitter expression on his face: "Qin Feng has never looked down on us, and his eyes have long surpassed us."

After this land, he looked at a wider place. He was laying out everywhere, taking the lead and leading the way. Do you know that what made me more desperate than our backwardness on weapons is this. Ming people, even the most ordinary Ming people, their vision is not comparable to ours. When I came back with the sea boat, on the boat, the ordinary sailors were talking about how to earn a family business overseas. If we explore those unknown places, Ming people made a globe, do you know?"

"I know, but in Daqi, this is considered nonsense. If we really live on the same ball, wouldn't we fall down?" Cao Hui said.

"I really believe it. Qin Feng never talks nonsense." Qin Li said: "Those sailors often point to the globe on the ship to study. What are the dark areas that have not been explored yet? What are they trying to do now, and what about us?"

Cao Hui was speechless.

"This time I escaped, I passed by many remote villages. When I was curled up in the grass in the forest or in the cave, the sound of reading from afar was a great excitement for me. I saw boys sitting neatly in the house to attend classes, and I saw a white-bearded gentleman carrying a small blackboard in the courtyard to teach those farmers who were over half white to read. And we were still shouting loudly that the people could let them go, not to let them know!"

"Brother Qin, don't be too excited. What you said is obviously impossible for us to solve in a short period of time."
