Datang first village

What is most precious. .

People who have no belief, no nationality, and no caste, who are close to the living environment of primitive society, actually care most about a good life.Of course, if a powerful nation recognizes the beliefs of an insignificant small nation, it can also annex this small nation.

However, if culture and wealth are not enough to seduce.

Or, is it that people who need to be seduced are too mindful?

Li Yuanxing's giant ship is preparing to explain it to the people of Datang, whether they are dignitaries or ordinary businessmen.What should one do when faced with a greedy guy or a prey who wants to resist.

Malacca city!

Located in the middle of the Strait of Malacca, the name of later generations is also called Malacca, three to four hundred kilometers west from Singapore.On the south coast of the Malay Peninsula, this is an important city that originally traded between Tianzhu, the Malay Peninsula and Nanyang.It can be said that the tariffs here support half of Srivijaya's fiscal revenue.

This port directly or indirectly supports almost 10 people.

Standing on the deck, Li Yuanxing was biting a cigar made of wild Nanyang tobacco leaves, with a cruel smile on his face.

"This king thinks that at this time, this king can't find an excuse to say that he is righteous. Because this king is an invader, since he has to be a bad guy no matter what, then there is no need for those hypocrisy. I don't know if the censors How will I impeach this king, will I punish him without teaching, or fight without declaring it?"

Is Li Yuanxing talking to himself, or to whom?

Anyway, Wei Ting, who was standing next to Li Yuanxing, heard everything verbatim, but he pretended not to hear.

Wei Ting is a Confucianist, but now he understands that for the sake of huge wealth and huge benefits, if he says any nonsense at this time, he will be scolded to death by the Tang family in the future.

"Brother Tan!" Li Yuanxing smiled and pointed to the city that he could see.

"It will come down with one blow!" When it came time to siege the city, Yu Chigong was naturally full of confidence.

Li Yuanxing turned around: "Brother Tan, don't kill too much. According to the intelligence, the king of Srivijaya is here, capture him alive, and then capture the capital of Srivijaya in front of him. Then it is no problem to sit down and negotiate." Night!"

Negotiations, in fact negotiations have already begun.

There is already a small boat approaching by the sea, and the envoy of King Srivijaya is sitting on it. Just seeing the number, scale, and size of the fleet has already made King Srivijaya feel terrified. The most fearful thing is that he does not know the fleet. Represents that powerful empire.

"Your Highness, a boat is approaching!" Pei Xi stepped forward to report.

"Really? What did the king just say?" Li Yuanxing asked back.

Pei Xi was just stunned for a moment, and his eyes were filled with murderous intent immediately: "Command, Huyi sank the boat. The rest of the ships attacked the port indiscriminately, regardless of casualties or spoils. They didn't even consider protecting the port. Your Highness ordered , Blow it flat to make a bigger one!"

With Pei Xi's words, it was flattened so that a bigger one could be repaired, and the captains started cursing their mothers into the tin microphones.

"You bastards, you've been training so hard for so long, the first time you go to the battlefield, whoever pissed your fucking pants, and then go home to nurse your child. Get ready..."

The ships began to turn, all sideways aimed at the port.

In the first shot, the small boat turned into countless pieces of wood and flew up. No one even cared whether the people on board were dead or alive.The entire port turned into a sea of ​​flames within a few breaths, and at least one of the ten shots was an incendiary bomb.The cost of incendiary bombs is too high, so high that people don't want to shoot them out.

One hair is five pennies.

Li Yuanxing looked at the almost leveled port expressionlessly, and just took a puff of his cigar.

Li Yuanxing was asking himself: When did he become so cruel, and he didn't have the slightest psychological burden for invading other countries.Did it start with the Battle of Pyongyang, or did I fight too many wars in the past few years in Datang?

It's a habit to kill people.

"Your Highness, there is no need to waste cannonballs?" After one round, Wei Ting reported from the side.

"Brother Tan!" Li Yuanxing called softly, and Yu Chigong clasped his fists together: "Decree!" Then he strode to the side of the boat: "Cease fire, the marines go out. Kill all the rebels on the spot and attack the city!"

Is there still a city to attack?

The school lieutenant who led the troops was a little helpless about this order. They have also tried the combat methods here these days.Too much equipment has become a burden, especially in the hot weather, which makes the soldiers in the north very uncomfortable.

Watching Yu Chigong disembark, Li Yuanxing threw Wei Ting a pocket watch: "Half an hour did not suppress this pier, it means that the marines need to retrain. If the king of Srivijaya didn't bring back to the boat for an hour, it means that the special forces were not trained enough. The king will go back and wait for the news."

Li Yuanxing didn't even watch the battle, but it could be said that everyone was watching the battle.

Not only the men, but also Cui Yingying and other women are all close to the window watching the first naval battle of the Tang Dynasty. The mighty artillery made the people of the Tang Dynasty full of confidence. Even the women did not feel that killing people was so scary. After all, they were not close to the battlefield.

Li Yuanxing didn't want to watch it, because this was the first war of aggression in his life.

Li Yuanxing didn't want to become a tyrant.

Back in the inner room, Li Yuanxing let out a long breath, feeling a little tired.Qiu Xiang brought a serving of ice cream, and Li Yuanxing shook his head lightly: "Give me a cup of hot tea, you can use the ice cream."

"Your Highness, is there something on your mind?" Qiuxiang asked obediently.

Li Yuanxing nodded: "Before the Great Sui Dynasty, my Chinese Han people were enslaved. Later, the Great Tang also fought against the Turkic people in order to protect the country. But now, the Great Tang is fighting abroad, occupying foreign lands, and enslaving foreign lands. The common people are becoming slaves. But this king doesn’t know what ordinary Tang people think.”

"Tigers eat wolves, wolves eat sheep, sheep eat grass. There's nothing wrong with that."

Qiuxiang's answer stunned Li Yuanxing.

When did the ancient people only care about aggression, not morality?Has Confucian benevolence and righteousness been thrown into the ditch?

"Ah!" Li Yuanxing came back to his senses, and just now in his mind, he sped up the map of the Tang Dynasty from the founding of the country to its peak. Naturally, it is getting bigger and bigger, that is to say, at this time of the Tang Dynasty.Fighting territory and capturing slaves is a normal life for Chinese people who have been oppressed by foreign countries for hundreds of years.

Ordinary people have only some money in their homes, and there must be slaves.

Conversely speaking, the people of Tang Dynasty also understood that if they were defeated and became slaves, they would accept their fate.

"Report, the King of Sanfoqi has been captured." Pei Xi reported at the door.

"The port of Malacca, how to use it, how to allocate it, allow all classes to speak, draw a circle from the port, and the piece of land near the port is the land leased by Datang, which represents the territory of Datang, here we must obey my Datang The rules. Beyond the line is the land of his Srivijaya."

Li Yuanxing calmly ordered.

After listening to Li Yuanxing's instructions, Pei Xi asked again: "Your Highness, if they ask how big this painting is, how will they answer?"

"It doesn't matter how big the painting is." Li Yuanxing actually laughed.

Pei Xi understood, but asked again: "Your Highness, why don't you occupy all of this place?"

Li Yuanxing couldn't help but smile wryly when he heard this question. He walked up to Pei Xi and put the frozen portion that Qiuxiang didn't eat into Pei Xi's hand: "Calm yourself, I'm going to send someone to take 100 people to guard here, you Go take it!"

Pei Xi's face turned green, not to mention 100 people, even ten 100 people couldn't calm down here.

You know, tens of thousands, even 10,000+ indigenous soldiers will be gathered here at any time. No matter how weak they are, Pei Xi can't overcome the superiority in numbers.

Datang no longer has enough soldiers, and it seems that it will be difficult to fully occupy it now.

Li Yuanxing's big ship did not call at the port at all, but left two warships, each with a thousand marines on board, and the flames on the warships threatened, Li Yuanxing believed that the pier had already been taken.Then it is to sell land to merchants and establish Datang's concession here.

Concession, a term that once made Li Yuanxing feel ashamed.

But at this time, Li Yuanxing was asked to draw a concession for Datang on foreign land.

The king of Srivijaya was taken onto the boat. After all, the monarch of a country, Yu Chigong allowed the guards who surrendered in his hands to come with 50 people, and those officials also picked three to board, and the rest were closed. Get up and allow them to buy themselves back.

"I want to see your king!" shouted the king of Srivijaya.

Yu Chigong lifted up and slapped an official next to King Sanfo Qi in the face, and then said: "Shut up, what is your identity? You dare to yell here, be honest, otherwise..." Yu Chigong sneered Then, he slapped another official on the face, and then smiled at the Srivijaya king.

Scared, really scared.At this time, the king of Sanfoqi already knew that these people were Han people from the north and Tang Dynasty.

But King Sanfoqi didn't understand why he attacked him.

The capital of Srivijaya is located in Palembang in later generations, which is about 240 miles away from the sea.But there was a big river with two channels leading to the sea. Li Yuanxing sent small boats to explore the way ahead. The huge ship had a draft of more than three meters, so he could only follow cautiously.

It took less than a day from Malacca to South Sumatra.

It took almost another day for the [-]-mile waterway to reach Palembang.

"A good place, as the capital is easy to defend and difficult to attack, but this is for the soldiers of the original aborigines, not the soldiers of my Tang Dynasty." Li Yuanxing appeared on the deck again, and the King Sanfoqi was also brought to the deck. But he couldn't tell who was the real high official here,

After observing for a long time, he found the fattest eldest grandson Wuji, and almost jumped on him.

"I am the king of Sanfoqi, you will fight without declaring!"

Changsun Wuji was stunned, thinking what was going on, what did it have to do with him, what was this guy shouting at him? (To be continued.)
