Since he knew what Lao Zhu was thinking and it happened to be in line with his thoughts, Wei Wu gave an answer immediately.

"Uncle Zhu, I'm having a lot of trouble staying in the military camp. This time, I'm going to fight the Japanese pirates on my own and not follow the main force."

Zhu Yuanzhang seemed to have guessed this answer long ago and said simply:

"It's pretty much what I guessed. In that case, I'll leave those Japanese pirates in Tongzhou to you. Just treat it as getting used to fighting them in advance."

"We have already decided to march eastward against the Japanese pirates. Let's prepare the food, fodder, gunpowder, and ammunition first, and we will march out directly after the New Year!"

"By that time, you should have already dealt with the Japanese pirates in Tongzhou. Then you can go directly to join the navy and go out to sea together."

"But Xiao Wu, you must remember not to interfere with military orders. When you reach the Japanese pirates, you must also pay attention to your safety when acting alone, understand?"

In fact, Wei Wu still felt a little strange. Although the Japanese pirates in Tongzhou were difficult to deal with, to put it bluntly, they were just some bandits.

Dealing with them is a completely different concept from fighting on the battlefield. Is it really necessary to adapt in advance?

However, no matter what, Wei Wu would not refuse this matter. After all, who could refuse to chop off the Japanese pirates' heads with a big knife!

Moreover, this matter was really nothing to Wei Wu. The most difficult problem should be how to find those Japanese pirates.

If a real fight breaks out, with the current strength of Shen Lin and his men, killing the Japanese pirates would not be much more difficult than killing a chicken.

So, after Zhu Yuanzhang finished speaking, Wei Wu patted his chest and promised:

"Don't worry, Uncle Zhu! I promise to handle this matter perfectly for you. Not a single one of those pirates will be able to escape!"

For some reason, when Wei Wu was speaking, Zhu Yuanzhang always felt that he seemed a little too excited.

Although we know from previous conversations that Wei Wu hates the Japanese pirates extremely, he wouldn't be so happy with just a few people!

In fact, just as Zhu Yuanzhang thought, such a group of roaming Japanese pirates was indeed not enough to make Wei Wu so excited.

In fact, what really made him happy was that Tongzhou was right on the seaside, and the yacht he had just won could be put to good use.

The saying that a man remains a young man until his death is not just a saying. Wei Wu is now like a child.

Moreover, these children have just received a new toy and can't wait to try it out.

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't know what Wei Wu was thinking, but he knew that Wei Wu's mind was no longer here.

He simply waved his hand and drove them away.

"Okay, go back first! There's no rush for the Tongzhou matter. Just leave it to the Impermanence Squad when the time comes. You can take Yuxuan out for a walk to relax."

Wei Wu's mind was full of yachts, and he didn't pay attention to what Zhu Yuanzhang said. He only heard that he was asked to go back.

So he turned around and walked out of the hall without saying a word, which made Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes twitch and his hands fell on the jade belt around his waist.

But at this moment, Zhu Biao on the side suddenly spoke and interrupted Zhu Yuanzhang's next move.

"Dad, is it really okay for us to trick Xiao Wu like this?"

Hearing Zhu Biao's question, Zhu Yuanzhang sighed helplessly.

"I don't want to go back on my word, but this is what I have to do. I'm doing this for his own good."

As he spoke, Zhu Yuanzhang turned his head to look at Zhu Biao and asked with a serious expression.

"Biao'er, in your heart, is the promise of our emperor more important, or is the Ming Dynasty's country and future development more important?"

Zhu Biao turned his head and looked at Zhu Yuanzhang, but did not answer his question because this question did not require an answer at all.

Compared with the development of the country and the society, even the emperor himself is not important, let alone the emperor's promises.

Seeing that Zhu Biao didn't speak, Zhu Yuanzhang didn't ask any more questions, but said to himself:
