When Li Bao heard Changsun Sheng’s inquiry, he supported his chin and thought carefully. Changsun Sheng did not disturb Li Bao’s thinking, and waited while smiling and looking at the western land.

In an instant, there was no other sound on the battleship except for the howling cold wind and the sound of the waves slapping the boat.

After a moment, Li Bao raised his head and said, "Is the situation in my country related to the war outside Shanhaiguan when Mr. Changsun said?"

"Yes." Changsun Sheng didn't say much, but just said no to show that he was correct.

"What does the war outside the pass have to do with the Beilu, Beilu waters, and Ice and Snow Island?" No matter how Li Bao thought about the relationship between the two, he couldn't understand.

Li Bao only knew that the war outside Shanhaiguan was related to the Xia Kingdom, but the specific one was not clear. In addition, what was the relationship between the Xia Kingdom, which was far south, and the northern region thousands of kilometers away.

"Haha, General Li is already extraordinary to be able to grasp the key points." Changsun Sheng saw that Li Bao's face became ugly, and immediately waved his hand: "I don't mean to make fun of the general."

"What does that mean by sir?" Li Bao frowned and said, "I will listen with utmost care!"

"General Li, don't blame me, let me say it clearly." Seeing Li Bao's appearance, Changsun Sheng knew that the other party was resentful and said to himself: Wu and Wen really have completely different thinking.

"The fleet stayed in the Northern Territory for a long time is different from the past. Even if the fleet's combat power is invincible, the lions will also take a nap. If an accident occurs, we will have a long distance according to our country."

"There is therefore imminent to destroy pirates." Seeing Li Bao nodding in agreement with his point of view, Changsun Sheng continued to preach: "Destroying pirates can establish authority in this sea area, and secondly, it can protect the long-term safety of the fleet and alleviate the pressure on the fleet."

"Three things have made such merits. Whether you return to China and receive rewards or stabilize the sea area here, you can improve the morale of the fleet." Changsun Sheng said this and took a deep breath.

Li Bao nodded and took advantage of this and asked, "There is something that is not finished in his words. Are you worried?"

Changsun Sheng nodded first, then shook his head, and said, "The unfinished words were expressed later, but there was no concern."

"Can you give me advice?" Halfway through hearing this, Li Bao had completely forgotten the unhappiness in his heart.

Changsun Sheng thought about it, as if he had figured out something, and said, "Well, I'll tell you together."

"General Li, before I talk, I want to ask." After seeing Li Bao nodding, Changsun Sheng asked, "I wonder what the general thinks about this sea area?"

"This..." Li Bao was suddenly caught off guard by Changsun Sheng's question, and he didn't know what Changsun Sheng asked about it had to do with what the other party was about to say, but Changsun Sheng asked so seriously, and Li Bao thought about it seriously.

After a while, Li Bao looked up and replied, "Mr. Changsun, although the northern region is extremely cold and full of pirates, it is still a rich place."

"Does the general mean to expand his territory? He seized this rich land for his country?" Changsun Sheng finally expressed his purpose.

"This...then..." Li Bao was a little at a loss when he heard this, and didn't know what to say.

Li Bao looked at Changsun Sheng's unhidden ambition, immediately calmed down, took two deep breaths, and said slowly: "Although I am the general who wants to expand the territory, he has no ability to expand the territory."

"The general is wrong!" Changsun Sheng shook his head firmly and said, "Now there is a God-given opportunity in front of the general. It depends on whether the general is willing to give it a try."

"Since there is such a good opportunity, why don't you say it earlier?" Li Bao asked back: "But how should you try to fight?"

Li Bao knew that the fighter opportunity should not be missed, and he also knew that there was no free lunch. Since there was a good opportunity, there must be a crisis.

"Don't worry, General. I'm not going to give up on my own, nor do I let the general fight for the safety of the fleet, just to make the general determined." Seeing Li Bao's determination, Changsun Sheng relaxed his face and smiled.

Li Bao suddenly felt a bitter smile, pointed at Changsun Sheng and shook his hand, "Sir, I really like to make fun of me. What are your tricks, but please tell me."

"The general is so serious, so I don't mean to make fun of the general." Changsun Sheng bowed and apologized: "I'll say this."

Changsun Sheng received the gift, turned his body, first pointing to the western coastline, then pointing to the north, and said in a deep tone: "Many territories on the Northland coast plan for silver mines on the ice and snow islands."

Finally, he pointed to the battleship under his feet and said sternly: "This is our opportunity!"

"Cleaning pirates is beneficial to trade in the Northern Region, and the place where trade is most demanding is Ice and Snow Island." Changsun Sheng explained in a quick tone.

"In early summer, when many forces attack the Ice and Snow Island, they can support and make friends with the Cold Island, and use this kindness as an opportunity to establish a friendly place in this northern region and establish it as the foundation."

After saying this, Changsun Sheng also took a deep breath to relieve the urgency of not neglecting to breathe because he said too much.

Li Bao was still digesting Changsun Sheng's words with shock. Changsun Sheng continued: "General Li should know that the southern continent is in chaos, but the other territories are all in peace."

"Well, this general knows." Li Bao digested Changsun Sheng's words and said in confusion: "I wonder what the war in the south is related to this plan?"

Changsun Sheng did not answer Li Bao's question, but continued to ask: "Does General Li know why his country did not come out of seclusion and sweep across the southern land?"

"I don't know about this general." Li Bao frowned and shook his head, then seemed to have thought of something, and said uncertainly: "It seems to be related to the insufficient population of the country."

"General Li is right, but not completely right." Changsun Sheng looked at Li Bao's even more puzzled look and explained: "The reason why the war outside the pass only has the Southern Land and did not affect the central central government is because the long-term stability of the central continent has become a foregone conclusion."

"The reason why my country did not leave the customs and swept the southern land was because the continent outside the customs was not in chaos. Once my country left the customs, it would be hostile to the entire continent. With the current national strength of my country, it is not enough to fight the entire world with the power of one country."

Changsun Sheng's commentary made Li Bao know a lot about the secrets he had never known before, and even knew that politics was really something he could not touch.

"So, taking this opportunity to provoke wars in the North and the South. The north and the south are in chaos, leaving only the central government to defend the so-called "orthodox" and the "convention" is useless."

"At that time, the king will decide whether to advance or defend, attack or stability in the country."

Every word of Changsun Sheng’s words is so sonorous and powerful!
