Datang first village

Everyone's ambition is different. .

I remember Xiang Yu said when he saw Shihuang's chariot battle, men should be like this.At that time, Xiang Yu already had the ambition to rebel.As Li Er said, ever since he became sensible, he wanted to replace Da Sui Jiangshan with him.

Speaking of ambition, the guy at the steamed stuffed bun shop in Leminyuan, Chang'an City, has a lot of ambitions.

This guy's first ambition is to learn the secret recipe of the boss's dumpling stuffing.Then I became the chef of this shop, married the owner's daughter, and opened a steamed stuffed bun shop myself.

Who's to say that this fellow has no ambitions?

Knife steel also has ambitions.

Indigenous people are only at the bottom of the knowledge level, and they have too little knowledge, which does not mean that these people have low IQs.

His ambition is to go to Chang'an and become a real high-ranking official in Chang'an, instead of being a so-called county magistrate here. He already knows the value of many goods and he only knows a number.

It was a female slave next to the big man, with clothes and decorations on her body, on top of him leading hundreds of people to work hard for many days.It may not be possible to exchange them.

Among the education he received, and all the texts he received, including the words he heard from these Tang people.Dao Gang vaguely understood a truth, Chang'an is the center of the world, and they only have remote corners here.

Daogang has been standing on the pier, and after seeing the fleet leave, he is still unwilling to leave.

"Should I take this guy to Chang'an for a tour?" the staff officer asked a clerk next to him.

The clerk was counting the number of dried fiber bundles this time, and he didn't raise his head when he heard the staff officer's words, but said, "If he doesn't come back, who will take care of these natives for us?"

"That's right." The staff officer took out a bottle of wine, took a sip, and took a look at the ledger: "I heard that the price of hemp rope has increased recently. How about we set up a hemp rope workshop here?"

"There's nothing here except hemp. Buy everything from Huating and sell it back as hemp rope. How about we figure out if we can make more money? Anyway, it's really hard work."

The two of them stopped talking until this point, and each was busy with its own business.

The clerk continued to settle accounts, and the staff continued to think wildly.

Thousands of miles west of the Philippine Islands, Baiyue was reached. Li Yuanxing had already sent someone on the boat to inform Feng An by telegram.

A few days later, Li Yuanxing's fleet came to the location of the later Halong Bay.

"Your Highness, Dudu Feng's fleet has also arrived, and the lair who claims to be the King of the Sea has been found. They can all be dealt with in one charge." Hearing Pei Xi's report, Li Yuanxing did not answer, but waved his hand lightly.

Pei Xi sent an order outside: "Battleships move forward, merchant ships follow behind, prepare for battle at the first level!"

Want to fight?

Although the merchant ships began to move to the back of the line, all the guests were excited to seize the favorable position. It was not possible to see a sea battle. No one could imagine what a sea battle would be like.

Halong Bay, there are many villages here, and there is also a not-so-small pier. Dozens of brigantines and slender two-masted sailing vessels are docked on the wharf. They are about three to five feet long and can load about twenty or thirty tons. This kind of sea-going ship can be said to be the mainstream sea-going ship of the Tang Dynasty.

Of course, this is Li Yuanxing. If Li Yuanxing hadn't come to Datang, this would be a mainstream sea ship.

"Your Highness, Commander Feng's fleet sent a signal to ask if they want to attack."

Li Yuanxing shook his head lightly: "Order Feng An to step aside, and order all warships not to move. The flagship stepped forward, with the guns on one side fully opened, aiming at a deserted place one mile to the left of the enemy camp, and firing two salvos."

Aim at the uninhabited place on the left side of the enemy camp?

Pei Xi didn't understand the purpose of this order at all. One shot would cost hundreds of pennies, and the two rounds of volleys cost more than a dozen pennies. They didn't hit the enemy's head, but only hit the open ground.

An order is an order.

Two salvos! ! !

With the firepower of 36 guns on one side, the lieutenant of the artillery team immediately understood the intention of this order, and all chose the flaming shotgun, plus some incendiary bombs.The five miles of the square garden were bombed so that not a single blade of grass grew, the entire forest, the stones by the sea, everything was destroyed.

Not to mention the people in the camp, even Datang himself has never seen such a dense salvo of artillery.

The artillery at this time is several times stronger than when it attacked Pyongyang.

Whether it is visual or psychological shock, many people are trembling.

"Tell the king of the sea, let him come to see the king. Let's put tables and chairs on the deck!" Li Yuanxing said lazily.

In Li Yuanxing's eyes, the flame demonstration was nothing special.With the development of science and technology, there are only three wars that still need to consume some brainpower. One is the tropical jungle of the Indochina Peninsula, the other is the altitude sickness of Turpan, and the third is the religious fanaticism and long-distance supply of the big cannibal.

Other than that, there is no enemy who can fight Datang.

Anyone who wants to attack Datang's homeland, only Datang chooses how to let him die, not how he chooses to attack.

After Li Yuanxing gave the order, Pei Xi immediately sent people to disembark.

The lieutenant who had passed on the message in the past asked before disembarking: "What if the other party doesn't come?"

Pei Xi was asked what to do if he was really a diehard.Should I go back and ask for instructions?

"Forget it, I'll go first!" The captain ignored Pei Xi's reaction, jumped from the ship's side onto the hanging plank, and then used the hanging plank to put him on the boat, and someone sent him to the shore.

The captain's worries didn't exist at all.When he was standing on the beach, a man brought him over in a big tie, with a wooden stick in his mouth. The thin ropes on both sides of the wooden stick were wrapped around his neck, and then the thick ropes were tied to his arms. , striding towards the captain.

He knew this man very well. From the time those ships approached, he knew that he must be defeated.

escape?What will happen to the old, young, women and children there after they escape?

Revenge, relying on their dozens of small boats, the smallest one of the other party is not something they can fight against. That huge ship is fifty or sixty feet long, and it is impossible to climb the deck desperately.

On the deck, what Li Yuanxing was wearing was not the robe of the King of Qin, but a very simple, Tang-style round-neck shirt.

"Ji's surname, Zhao's. Speaking of which, your ancestors are cousins ​​of the First Emperor. Of course, they are distant relatives. But they are both descendants of the Ji family, and your own ancestors, whether they are enshrined or self-appointed. The King of the South China Sea, or the King of Martial Arts of Nanyue. When Shi Huang died, he also did it alone."

The person who tied him up looked at Li Yuanxing blankly.

He really couldn't guess who this person was, this attire was not much more noble than that of a boatman, it was not silk, but fine linen.I can't find a single expensive ornament all over my body, and I don't have anything that feels valuable.

Li Yuanxing checked Baiyue's information, and he really worked hard.

It was later that Li Lanshan reminded him that how could Baiyue people know how to be king, and those who dare to be king must be Han people.

But who is this Han Chinese?

After checking a lot of information, Li Yuanxing was sure that this was probably Zhao Tuo's descendant.Otherwise, a bandit in the mountains and forests, just like Wang Ba, would claim to be a leader, but he would definitely not call himself a king.

"Later, Liu Bang proclaimed himself emperor. Zhao Tuo wrote a letter: Tuo was originally a Han, and his relatives and tombs were all in the Han. Now it is not absurd to go against the custom and want to stand here, to compete with the Han. And the husband Qin lost his deer, The whole world pursues it. But the Emperor of Han accepts people mercifully, and the people are happy to obey." Recited here, Li Yuanxing stopped: "This paragraph is too long, and it is meaningless after reading it."

"Qin, Your Highness King Qin!" That person finally came to his senses.

Li Yuanxing nodded: "This king has been conferred the title of King Qin of the Tang Dynasty, General Tiance."

After a while, that man's legs softened and he fell to the ground.

"When Zhao Tuo descended to Han, some people in the Zhao family were not convinced, so there were some internal turmoil in the Zhao family in those few years. One branch went south and mixed with the original residents of the Indo-China Peninsula. Even if it is in decline, this king will agree with you, the two-word king!"

"I'm Zhao Lu! Take it!"

"Sit down, I think you have never eaten the food of the Central Plains. As a Han Chinese, your family will still be happy when you come home. You are still a descendant of Yan and Huang, descendants of the Ji family when you are away from home. This king is at odds with you." You nonsense, this king wants to include Indochina Peninsula into the territory of the Tang Dynasty. If you are willing to be a pioneer, I will give you an official title of Tang Dynasty prince when you succeed. If you don’t want to, this king doesn’t like to force people, so I will give you a piece A safe place to live, take your clansmen to live in peace."

"Zhao Lu is puzzled! When facing the enemy, there is no such thing as being soft-hearted. Since His Highness has been named the King of Qin, what he holds in his hand is the blade of killing. Zhao robs the sea ship, and he is an enemy of the Tang Dynasty. If you don't kill him, how can you serve the world? Why do you frighten the world's Xiaoxiao?"

Li Yuanxing poured himself a glass of wine.

Zhao Lu kept staring at Li Yuanxing's eyes.

Li Yuanxing in Zhao Lu's eyes was so calm, his eyes were like a windless lake.

"The king's sword will not be pointed at the Han people, let alone the blood of the Han people. What's more, the world is so big, even if the Tang Dynasty does not allow it, there is a place to stay."

Zhao Lu, who was kneeling on the ground, suddenly let out a strange howl, and the hemp rope that was as thick as a finger was all broken.

No one moved, not a single one of the twenty guards around moved, and the imperial guard standing three steps behind Li Yuanxing didn't even open his eyes, as if Zhao Lu didn't exist at all.

"I would like to be a vanguard!" Zhao Lu said the military salute of Qin Jun.

"Old Qin people, I didn't expect to see old Qin people here." Li Yuanxing stood up with a smile on his face:

"What the king wants is conquest. You can learn the difference between conquest and occupation slowly. The first task for you is to tell all the Han people in the entire Indochina Peninsula, south of the Tang Dynasty, all the Han people on the continuous islands, This king is here to take them home."

"Go home?" Zhao Lu asked foolishly.

Li Yuanxing smiled: "Just go home, even if people are wandering, Datang will still protect them, because they are descendants of Yan and Huang." (To be continued.)
