Chapter 1339 Musket
Fu Jiujiu rolled her eyes at him, "Let's get down to business, how is the naval training going?"

Tang Xian knew that the little woman was also knowledgeable in the military. She was even more experienced than him because she read a lot of books. "Everything is arranged according to what you said. However, this is Li Chao's first time in maritime matters and he is still groping." Zhong, why, are you worried..."

Fu Jiujiu continued what he had not finished, "Now the Li Dynasty, on land, is not said to be dominant, but several neighboring countries are either on good terms or have interests in each other, and the countries further away want to attack us. North Korea must pass through several surrounding countries, and even if they don't ask us for help, we will get the news."

"That's right, even if we don't ask for help, we can't stand idly by if the stability of our Li Dynasty is compromised."

Fu Jiujiu nodded, "Yes, that's the truth. On land, we are relatively safe. The biggest threat to us now is that several ports in Li Dynasty are relatively weak. Li Dynasty is no longer what it used to be, especially You are an emperor, you must be forward-looking, and you must be prepared for danger in times of peace. We do not invade others. But now the farmland of Li Dynasty is fertile, the people live and work in peace and contentment, and the products are rich. In the eyes of some people, it is just a piece of delicious fat. It was not a few days ago. Are there any fishing boats not coming from my direction approaching?"

Fu Jiujiu finished speaking in one breath, and Tang Xian listened carefully without interrupting. He knew better that what the little woman said made sense, "Well, our maritime army still has a lot to improve."

"Then perfect it as soon as possible. Not for others, even for ourselves, we can't give the enemy an opportunity to carry out maritime trade. There are advantages and disadvantages. Simply speaking, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages, but it is undeniable that if someone has evil intentions, Nian, it will still be coveted by some people.”

Tang Xian held her hand tightly, "Everything has two sides. Don't think too much about it. My father and I both think that launching maritime trade is a very good idea."

Fu Jiujiu smiled slightly, "Since I came up with this idea, I will naturally be responsible for the aftermath. No matter what, we cannot take it lightly. The maritime army must have strong combat capabilities, and it is even more difficult than on land. But the enemy will not Coming from a thousand miles away, you must be well prepared.”

"Even if we are fully prepared, we have supplies behind us, which they can't compare to." Tang Xian said truthfully: "Don't worry, just because I say this doesn't mean that I am content now. I will let Third Brother tomorrow To supervise those military exercises on the water.”

"Third brother has been recharging his energy for many years. Although it may be a bit excessive to say this, I hope he will never be useless." Fu Jiujiu smiled bitterly.

"Actually, there is one more thing. I don't know how to tell you."

Fu Jiujiu looked at him with raised eyebrows, "Are you talking about muskets again?"

Tang Xian was stunned for a moment, "Did Brother Bata tell you?"

But then I thought about it, and it was wrong. Wasn't it because Ba Ge was embarrassed to say it that he was allowed to say it?
"Why would he tell me that since he took charge of the arsenal, so many strange weapons and weapons have been developed, but he would show me all of them first. He hasn't talked about this for more than half a year, right?"

Tang Xian smiled helplessly and nodded, "He actually wanted to study the weapon that almost killed you back then. Unexpectedly, he actually invented it, but now only he can make this thing, and there is no mass production. I know you don’t want these things to happen.”

"But it still appeared. I don't know whether the appearance of this thing is a good thing or a bad thing for the times. It is simply a good thing for the Li Dynasty. At least it can ensure the stability of the Li Dynasty. The most important thing is that I know your character. But whether sons, grandsons, and grandsons’ grandsons can be content with the status quo if they hold weapons that are ahead of the enemy? When their ambitions expand, it will be the common people who will eventually be unlucky.”

"That handful was originally a birthday gift from Bago. If you don't like it, then I'll have it destroyed."

"Forget it, this makes Starling so sad. Just keep it and put it in the space. Unless it is absolutely necessary, we should not mass-produce this thing."

Tang Xian nodded. He felt that the neighboring countries were each guarding their own land and had no intention of expansion. The people could just be content with the status quo.

He doesn't want to start a new war, but as Fu Jiujiu said, where are his sons and grandsons?
Even if he can control the descendants of the Tang family, what about Dong Qi, Xi Lin, and Bei Mo?
Even he can't guarantee that Nan Yu will never go out independently again!

Suddenly, the white peacock outside screamed again.Tang Xian frowned, "Why is it barking again? Don't wake Luan'er up."

However, when I looked down, I saw that the little girl opened her eyes lazily after taking a nap, and her big watery eyes had already opened.

Tang Xian kissed her fleshy little hand, and then touched her cheek. If that wasn't enough, he rubbed her little feet and pinched her thighs. He wanted to kiss her butt again, but Fu Jiujiu pushed her away.

"You haven't given up yet, so you can't hold her. You'll be tired and your back will be sore in the future."

Tang Xian always used this reason to snatch his daughter. Fu Jiujiu rolled her eyes at him and then let him go.

After all, his health is important, he is the biological father, and he will not take his daughter away.

The next day, Tang Xian called Fu Sanjin and asked him to step up training to prevent the invasion of powerful enemies.

Fu Sanjin knew that this was no joke. There were really enemies who had opened a hole in the sea and entered the Li Dynasty. It was very close to the capital. It was impossible to gather all the troops in the capital in a short period of time.

"Your Majesty, don't worry. As long as I'm here at this port, I will never give them a chance to land."

"Third brother, of course I'm not worried about you here, but the Li Dynasty has more than one port. All prosperous places have now opened waterways. If several ports in the south are invaded, it will not be a trivial matter. Now the sailors here are the most Strong, I intend to let you in case of emergency."

Fu Sanjin nodded, "Don't worry, relatively speaking, the navy led by General Cheng is not bad, but General Cheng is getting old..."

"It doesn't matter. His grandson, Major General Miao, will replace him in the future. I have already thought about it. It's just that he is still young and needs experience. I'm calling you here today. Firstly, he will step up his training and not relax. Secondly, he will definitely inform his subordinates. , step up patrols, and never tolerate any suspicious ships approaching."

"Yes."

Fu Sanjin knew very well that if it related to the country, there was no need to make a fuss about it. No matter how small the court affairs were, they were still big.

"Third brother, thank you for your hard work."

"Your Majesty, first of all, this is my duty, and secondly, why should we be so polite?" Fu Sanjin said with a smile, "Also, there is the matter of getting crowned..."

"I know about Tian Guan. I originally wanted to keep him in the capital, but since he wants to go to the North, it would be a good thing to experience it for a few years. If he is willing, he can leave at the beginning of next month."

Fu Sanjin showed an honest smile, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
