Gu Yun took it; after eating two bites, he suddenly asked, "How come there are no green vegetables?"

"Don't you not eat vegetables?" said Shen Yi in surprise.

"When did I say I don't eat them..." Gu Yun murmured and took a few bites. He still felt that there was something missing with this bowl of noodles. After thinking for a while, he realized it.

Turns out, the so-called birthday and festival were only born because of the people. There was someone who was willing to hold a small "ceremony" for him on such a day, as another way to express "I hold you in my heart".

In fact, the feeling was hidden in the sentence under the bowl of noodle soup rather than these few mouthfuls of tasteless food.

Five days later, Gu Yun formally received the list of the Foreign Affairs Mission. After only glancing at it, he gave it to Shen Yi and said lightly, "See? We can only prepare to start."

Shen Yi had no choice but to follow his orders.

"Just in case, Ji Ping, I'd like to give you a few words — if something goes wrong, you'll be in charge of the army in my place. On the ground, you have the power to fight against those foreigners, but remember not to go into the water. You have too little experience in naval battles and you will not be able to go against that old man."

Gu Yun spoke, and took out four letters he had written in advance in the Marshal's tent, "If there is no mistake, send the first war report to the capital city. If fate doesn't favor us and we have an accident, then send the second one, and let the Grand Council cooperate with us to remedy it. Don't forget to attach an apology letter, sealed by the Black Tiger Emblem. All faults are for me to bear alone…

“The latter two are private letters. The third one is to be sent to Chang Geng first, so as to stabilize him. When things calm down, if you have the chance, give him the fourth one."

Shen Yi said angrily, "Are you leaving behind your wills to me?"

"This Marshal needs to leave behind wills because of those western monkeys?" Gu Yun casually raised his eyebrows and said, "This is called being thorough. When the time comes, I would not have to write them again either. Military orders must be obeyed, stop talking nonsense, get to work!"

The next night, without warning, the Great Liang navy suddenly initiated an attack and invaded the Western army. Both sides were almost familiar with each other, and were enraged as soon as they met head-on. Although the Western army was surprised, it still organized a counter-attack quickly. As soon as they started, they could feel that the Great Liang navy was particularly fierce this time around.
