Datang: What's wrong with my fief being a billion points larger?

Li Yuanji watched the plane fly in the sky for a long time and finally landed safely, and he felt completely relieved.

The success of this aircraft test also represents that the Tang Dynasty has entered a new era. Not only does it provide a new form of transportation, but it also means that the Tang Dynasty's air force will gradually emerge.

After everyone was excited, Li Yuanji brought Liu Mingsheng and Li Chengye into the room.

"Although this plane was successful, we still can't slack off. We need to develop how to carry more people into the sky, fly from Chang'an to other places, and make it more convenient for people to travel.

At the same time, the aircraft also had to be redesigned, that is, how to place the bomb on the plane, fly the plane over the enemy, open the cabin door to drop the bomb and cause it to explode, and install gun muzzles on both wings of the plane so that the pilot can directly control the shooting in the cockpit.

We even need to develop aircraft with faster speeds and better performance, which can fly without fan blades but through tail jets. The development of aircraft in the future will be a top priority.

Mingsheng, you have to lead the research institute to solve these problems. All current technologies need further innovation and cannot be maintained at the current level. "

Li Yuanji looked at Liu Mingsheng. He just hoped that people like Liu Mingsheng in the research institute would not stop here. What Datang has now is actually quite basic, and there is still a lot of room for improvement.

As for what to do next, he hopes that the research institute can take the lead. Currently, the most talented people are those in this research institute.

After hearing this, Liu Mingsheng put away the smile on his face and responded solemnly.

"Your Majesty, rest assured. The Research Institute is committed to researching new technologies. We will definitely not be satisfied with the current situation and will only create more technologies. The existing technologies in the Tang Dynasty have been divided into various disciplines for research and will never stand still."

Li Yuanji was relieved after hearing this. He just didn't want the people in the research institute to have that kind of mentality. As long as the mentality remained normal, he believed that they could continue to make progress.

After chatting for a few words, Li Yuanji let Liu Mingsheng go and then looked at Li Chengye.

"Chengye, remember, the development of technology cannot stop. The support of the research institute and other departments must be given the greatest support at all times. Moreover, you must be able to control these departments yourself. They must be controlled by Datang, and no one else can be allowed to enter and destroy them.

Now you see an airplane. When technology is advanced in the future, you can even go to the moon. That is, you can also fly to the moon. These are just one direction. You need to fully support the research institute to complete it. You must attach importance to the training of talents in this area. "

Li Yuanji talked a lot with Li Chengye, basically asking Li Chengye to pay attention to the importance of departments such as the scientific research institute and to know the importance of scientific and technological development.

Once the development of science and technology begins, it cannot be stopped. Li Yuanji is very clear that if he stops, he will be overtaken by others. Although the current Tang Dynasty has the capital to stagnate, if it stagnates for too long, it will give others opportunities.

Li Chengye was also listening quietly at the side. He was shocked by what Li Yuanji said. The current plane had already shocked him. Now he realized that what he knew was just superficial.

After all these were done, another three months passed and Li Yuanji's system task was finally completed. The population of the Tang Dynasty officially exceeded 300 million. This population included the fiefdoms of foreign wars. As long as they were registered in the Tang Dynasty, they were counted as the population of the Tang Dynasty.

One hundred million contribution points were deposited into his account, and Li Yuanji exchanged a lot of them. At the same time, he also exchanged for technological evolution in order to point out the direction for the development of Li Chengye and the research institute.

When there were only more than 5 million contribution points left, Li Yuanji breathed a sigh of relief. These contribution points were kept by him as backup. He knew very well that after going to North America, it would not be as easy and abundant to obtain contribution points as it is now.

One day, Yang Jianhe walked in hurriedly.

"Your Majesty, the Jinyiwei has sent a message that Li Er has begun to take action. Li Er has recruited thousands of natives and equipped them with weapons. At the same time, he has selected 20,000 people from the migrated people and is preparing to apply to the court for additional weapons and equipment.

In addition, Li Chengqian, Li Tai, Yuchi Baolin and others have also been frequently contacting military generals with the intention of recruiting them. Some of them have secretly agreed and are waiting for His Majesty's order to close the net at any time."

When Li Yuanji heard this, he immediately laughed. This Li Er couldn't help himself. It was worth his two years of waiting. Now it finally started. Li Er really did have ambitions.

Li Yuanji then looked at Yang Jianhe.

"Let the Royal Guards keep an eye on Li Er's movements at all times. Let everyone pay attention and don't let him get exposed. Now everything will go according to Li Er's wishes and satisfy him."

After explaining everything to Yang Jianhe, he immediately asked someone to call Cen Wenben.

"Jingren, go down and prepare a batch of weapons and equipment. If Li Er requests weapons and equipment, approve it directly and deliver them as soon as possible. He will distribute them himself."

"Yes, Your Majesty, the equipment is already in the treasury. If Li Er requests it, it can be shipped out immediately."

When Cen Wenben heard what Li Yuanji said, he knew that Li Er had started to take action. Next, he waited for Li Er to start rebelling and then captured him directly.

Sure enough, in less than half a month, Li Er's application came, and the weapons and equipment that had been prepared long ago were delivered directly to Li Er as soon as possible.

Xizhou Prefecture was divided into prefectures by the Tang Dynasty after Li Er conquered part of the area here. Currently, there are two prefectures here, and Xizhou Prefecture is the prefecture where Li Er is located.

Li Er looked at Li Chengqian, Li Tai, Yuchi Baolin and others below.

"The necessary weapons and equipment have been delivered. Once you go down, equip the army immediately. The western part of the Tang Dynasty has no defense against us. Once you equip them, immediately deal with those who are unwilling to follow me, and then send troops to the Tang Dynasty!"

Li Er's face was full of ruthlessness. Ever since he came back here, seeing that Li Yuanji really trusted him, he could no longer control his ambition. Now that he was getting older, Li Er had no choice but to prepare to take action early.

Originally, Li Er was prepared to endure for a few more years, but now as he gets older, Li Er doesn't know how long he can live. Once he dies, neither Li Chengqian nor Li Tai will be able to become the backbone, and the possibility of success will be even lower. He must do it himself.

Li Chengqian, Li Tai and others below became excited as they listened to Li Er's words. They had waited for this day for too long. They were driven out of Chang'an in the past, and now they wanted to fight back to Chang'an again.

Except for Li Er, everyone was full of confidence. Only Li Er still had some worries in his heart, but there was nothing he could do.

In Chang'an City, Li Yuanji summoned Cen Wenben, Wang Xuance, Ning Chun, Xie Shufang, Su Dingfang, Xi Junmai, Liu Rengui and other generals to gather together. Yang Jianhe was also present, and Li Chengye was beside Li Yuanji.

"News has come from Xizhou Prefecture that Li Er is ready to launch an official rebellion in ten days. You must start preparing now and take action on time in ten days. It doesn't matter whether Li Er lives or dies, and all those involved must do the same!

As for the native army that Li Er recruited, kill them all, leaving no one alive!"

At this moment, Li Yuanji no longer cared about Li Er's life or death. He did not care about life or death. He just wanted to settle the matter as soon as possible, and he also had to prepare for the expedition.

Upon hearing this, Xie Shufang and the others stood up solemnly and agreed. Now they had finally to start dealing with Li Er. They had been waiting for this day for a long time.

As ten days passed, Li Er called everyone together to discuss matters. However, except for the 5,000 native troops that Li Er had originally recruited, the rest of the army and the 20,000 troops that Li Er had selected from the people all went out, and under the guidance of the intelligence of the Jinyiwei, they directly attacked the 5,000 native troops. Among them, the 20,000 troops went straight to where Li Er was. Li Junxian led Li Er's original Hundred Cavalry Division to resist with all their strength, but they were still unable to resist. Li Junxian died. Li Chengqian and others wanted to fight back, but they were directly captured.

Li Er knew very well that he had fallen into Li Yuanji's trap when seeing all these scenes happening. Everything he had seen before was done by Li Yuanji for him to see.

Li Er was sitting alone upstairs, listening to the sound of gunfire outside. Soon Li Tai walked in.

"Father, my eldest brother died in the battle. I will take you away. Let's go somewhere else!"

Li Er listened quietly without any movement, his eyes slightly red and a little moist, and finally he took out a pistol and put it against his head.

"Tai'er, please go. I won't leave. I can't leave."

Li Er knew very well that Li Yuanji had been acting with him until now and he had nowhere to escape. He would either be taken back to Chang'an and die, or he would give himself dignity.

Looking at Li Tai again, Li Er felt heartbroken for a moment. Li Chengqian also died, all because of him.

Li Er closed his eyes and no longer looked at the panicked Li Tai. He immediately pulled the trigger and slowly fell into the chair.

Li Tai looked at this scene, his eyes were red and tears kept flowing down. After a long time, he suddenly looked outside.

"I'll fight with you!"

Li Tai picked up a machine gun and rushed out. He stood at the gate and kept shooting at the people outside. But after a moment, he was hit directly on the forehead and slowly fell to the ground.

On the other side, the 5,000 indigenous soldiers were bombarded by artillery fire. The army launched a direct attack, but in less than an hour, they were all wiped out and no one survived.

In the Chang'an Palace, Li Yuanji sat above the Taiji Hall, waiting quietly.

After a long time, Yang Jianhe came to Li Yuanji.

"Your Majesty, the rebellion in Xizhou Prefecture has been quelled. Li Er, Li Chengqian, Li Tai, Yuchi Baolin and others are all dead. Li Er committed suicide. The five thousand rebels have all been killed!"

After hearing this, Li Yuanji just waved his hand and signaled Yang Jianhe to go down.

Li Er died after all. Li Yuanji felt no sadness, but there was nothing to be happy about either. It was just a little complicated.

Between Li Jiancheng, Li Er and him, he was the one who had the last laugh in the end. Thinking about the Li Er in history and then looking at the Li Er now, Li Yuanji felt melancholy for a moment.

On the second day, Li Yuanji held a grand court meeting. Because of Li Er's rebellion, Li Er was deprived of the title of King of Qin and his death was announced to the world. The rebellion in Xizhou Prefecture was put down on the same day and all those involved were executed.

This news immediately caused an uproar. Everyone applauded and believed that Li Er should be killed. The controversy over Li Yuanji's appointment of Li Er also came to an end.

As Li Er's rebellion came to an end, Li Yuanji immediately began to prepare for the expedition.

It took more than eight months to complete all the preparations. Li Yuanji first called Li Chengye and told him about the expedition. Even though Li Chengye refused, Li Yuanji still made the decision.

"Chengye, from now on, the Tang Dynasty will be handed over to you. I will announce this matter in the court the day after tomorrow.

These are the future directions of scientific and technological development and some technologies that I have sorted out. You can hand them over to the research institute later, and you must also check them yourself.

Remember what I told you before, technology, people, people's livelihood, and the army, these are the top priorities. Now that the Tang Dynasty has been completely formed, you must also pay attention to and control the internal problems.

These things cannot be accomplished in one or two generations. You must also teach your son well. The training of successors is extremely important. You must remember this."

Li Yuanji looked at Li Chengye, whose eyes were red and tears were flowing, and patted Li Chengye on the shoulder. Now, he was relieved to hand over the entire Tang Dynasty to Li Chengye.

Afterwards, Li Yuanji called Wang Xuance, Ning Chun, Su Dingfang, Xi Junmai, Liu Rengui, Feng Ang, Songtsen Gampo, Xue Rengui and others to explain things to them, and everyone immediately became busy.

Some people wanted to go with Li Yuanji, but were rejected by Li Yuanji. The Tang Dynasty was the absolute core, and North America was just a place belonging to the Tang Dynasty.

At the court meeting, Li Yuanji issued an edict, directly stating the importance of America on the other side of the ocean. Not only would the Tang Dynasty send troops, but Li Yuanji would personally lead 80,000 troops of the army and navy on the expedition.

He then issued another edict, announcing his abdication and replacing Crown Prince Li Chengye with the throne.

On May 12, the 12th year of Kaiping, Li Yuanji officially abdicated, and Crown Prince Li Chengye ascended the throne and changed the reign title to Shengping. The following year was the first year of Shengping.

On June 3, the 12th year of Kaiping, Li Yuanji led the expeditionary army and officially set off from the Tang Dynasty.

Yang Qingwan, Wei Gui, Wu Shun, and Wu Mei all accompanied them, as did Cen Wenben and Xie Shufang. The rest of the people were divided into three groups and went there gradually.

On this day, countless people poured into the streets to see Li Yuanji off. Outside the port, the streets were densely packed with people. All of them knelt on the ground, watching Li Yuanji's fleet go away.

When Li Yuanji arrived in North America, he immediately began to clear out the local indigenous people, and then, just like he had done in Lingnan, he began to build cities, reclaim wasteland, and develop arable land.

Later, as the common people gradually arrived, Li Yuanji was shocked to find that more than 400,000 people were still not enough, including the families of the soldiers. He then moved another 200,000 people from the Tang Dynasty to completely occupy this area.

Ten years later, the Second Tang Empire had gradually taken shape, and Li Yuanji divided it up again and gave it to his descendants.

During this period, Datang's technology was comprehensively improved in all aspects, the rocket test launch was successful, and satellite technology was further consolidated.

After Li Yuanji handed over everything, he officially started traveling around the world with Yang Qingwan, Wei Gui, Wu Shun and Wu Mei. They wanted to visit every place and finally retire on the island they had chosen.

"Husband, hurry up and eat. We still have to clean up the house after dinner."

"Ladies, please let me sleep a little longer. I was seriously exhausted last night and need to rest~" (End of this chapter)
