After the initiation ceremony concluded, Chen Hongxiu, Zhao Tieshan, Meng Guang, and others bade farewell to Zheng Yi and led their respective subordinates towards the Northern Lands.
The three had similar objectives, all targeting Binzhou.
However, Chen Hongxiu and Zhao Tieshan were heading to the north of the Canglong River to join forces with Grand General Xu Mujun to resist Wu Country.
In contrast, Meng Guang's destination was the harbor at the border of Binzhou and Jizhou.
He plans to establish the North Sea Navy there!
Accompanying him were over two hundred artillerymen.
These individuals form the foundation and creators of the North Sea Navy.
After sending off the trio, Zheng Yi handed over the affairs of the state entirely to the Cabinet.
For himself, he summoned Chen Liancang.
"Elder Chen, how is the martial arts cultivation of the Shadow Guard?"
"Your Majesty."
