The strongest emperor of the Tang Dynasty.

Chapter 359 Li Chengqian and Li Tai's Different Plans

"My lord, there is news from South China that everything is going well. Xue Rengui has entered Zhang Shigui's camp and has become the head of the fire army." Li Tianming said to Li Tai.

"Tell them the words of this king, and tell them not to act too much, but they must firmly control the Huotou camp. This king wants to be in the Huotou camp, and there is no unstable factor." Li Tai ordered.

At this time, Li Tai's mood is really very comfortable, everything has returned to the original historical track, but it is more exciting than the original historical track.

But there is one thing that Li Tai has been unable to make up his mind.That is whether Liu Yinhuan should be allowed to endure 18 years of suffering in the cold kiln in Powa.

If Liu Yinhuan was not allowed to endure 18 years of suffering, would the famous Xue Dingshan have missed the opportunity to worship Wang Ao's ancestor as his teacher?

If it is really because of this, it may change the development of the entire history.After all, Xue Dingshan, Xue Rengui's son, still has the main event on him.

But if Liu Yinhuan was allowed to endure 18 years of suffering like this, Li Tai really couldn't bear it.In the end Li Tai made a moderate decision.

That is to let Liu Yinhuan continue to live in Powa Hanyao.But Li Tai sent out the golden shadow among the Five Elements Phantom.Go live with Liu Yinhuan, her identity is Liu Yinhuan's cousin.

……

Luoyang City.

"His Royal Highness, Zhang Shigui is now going to Longmen County, Jiangzhou, Shanxi to recruit soldiers. According to the emperor's will, he needs to recruit [-] soldiers. This is not a small force. If His Royal Highness can hold it in his hands, it will be of great use in the future. " Du He said to Li Chengqian.

"His Royal Highness already has ten ranks of princes under his command. If he stretches his hand too far, I'm afraid it will cause the emperor's dissatisfaction. It may even put His Royal Highness in danger." Chang Sun Xiang said after shaking his head.

"Changsun Xiang, have you ever considered that although His Royal Highness has the crown prince's ten ranks in his hands, there are not many veteran officials in the court who really support the prince. Moreover, all the generals are on the side of the king of Wei. If His Royal Highness holds another If there are no heavy troops, how will we compete with the King of Wei in the future." Du He said to Chang Sun Xiang.

"Now His Royal Highness has received the support of the Confucian sect in the world. Since ancient times, Taoist and military generals have conquered the world, and civil servants have ruled the world. With the strong support of the Confucian sect, is it still afraid that His Royal Highness will not be able to control everything?" Zhang Sunxiang argued.

"The Confucian sect supported me, and indeed I got a lot of assistants. But they are unarmed after all. Relying on them to defeat Li Tai, who has elite soldiers, is probably tantamount to nonsense." Li Chengqian said to Chang Sun Xiang.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is wise. When the Emperor launched the Xuanwumen Incident, he directly killed the Prince Li Jiancheng and the King of Qi Li Yuanji in the Xuanwu Gate. If His Royal Highness had more elite soldiers than the Emperor at that time, I am afraid that the one sitting on the throne today is not the current Emperor. It's over." Zheng Chunyuan said to Li Chengqian.

This Zheng Chunyuan is none other than the eldest son of the current patriarch of the Zheng family in Xingyang.Since Li Chengqian came to Luoyang to take power, the Zheng family of Xingyang has completely belonged to Li Chengqian.

Li Chengqian's wanton construction in Luoyang City, the financial support he obtained also came from the Zheng family in Xingyang.During the three years when Li Chengqian went to Chang'an City to supervise the country, all the affairs of Luoyang were also managed by the Zheng family of Xingyang.

Therefore, Li Chengqian still relies heavily on the Zheng family in Xingyang.The current Li Chengqian Dynasty has the support of Confucian scholars, and the economy has the support of the Zheng family of Xingyang.

It's a pity that now Li Chengqian lacks the support of generals, even though he has a prince under his command.But Li Chengqian can really mobilize only more than [-] people.

Although all of these more than [-] people are elite, on the battlefield, one is against ten.It even surpassed Li Tai's Imperial Army of Wei King in terms of number.But Li Chengqian knew in his heart that this was not his advantage.

First of all, the combat effectiveness of Li Tai's imperial army of the king of Wei is obvious to all, and it can even be said to be the number one elite in the Tang Dynasty.Not only that, Li Tai also has the support of Qin Qiong, Yu Chigong, Cheng Yaojin and others.

Not only Li Tai possesses such strength, even Li Ke, the king of Shu, is developing in full swing in Shuzhou now.All these have endangered Li Chengqian's position.

In addition, Li You from Binzhou has now become a threat to Li Chengqian.So now Li Chengqian is eager to develop his own strength.Otherwise, in the next battle, you may be at a disadvantage.

"If His Royal Highness can get the support of a general of the Sixteen Guards, it will definitely be a good thing for His Royal Highness." Du He said to Li Chengqian.

At this time, Du He is no longer a simple dude, since he suffered a big loss in Li Tai's hands last time.After returning home, he was taught a lesson by his father Du Ruhui, which made Du He change his past.

Started to learn Wen Tao Wu Lue, although not a top person.But it is definitely not a mediocre dude.This also allowed him to be reused by Li Chengqian.

"His Royal Highness, do you remember Duke Junji of the Lu Kingdom? He has not been valued by the emperor for a long time, and he has already complained in his heart. If His Royal Highness tries to lure him, I believe he should be able to win him to His Highness's side. " Zheng Chunyuan said to Li Chengqian.

"It is true that the collection of Lords and Marquises of the Lu Kingdom has already complained about it, and they have also revealed that they want to attach themselves to me. But I was worried that he was sent by my father to test me. So I didn't set an example. " Li Chengqian said.

"His Royal Highness, leave this matter to our Zheng family. Guaranteed that he will be the Duke of Lu State Junji, and he will obey His Royal Highness." Zheng Chunyuan said to Li Chengqian.

"Then I will leave this matter to Mr. Zheng. If possible, I hope that Mr. Zheng can help me collect more people's illegal records. I will only let them handle it in my hands. I will There is a way to make them obey my orders." Li Chengqian nodded and said to Zheng Chunyuan.

"His Royal Highness, if you want an invincible undead army, my Tang Sect can help His Highness build one." Tang Aoshan said to Li Chengqian.

This Tang Aoshan is the younger brother of the head of the Tang Sect, Tang Aotian, and his position in the Tang Sect is the deputy head of the Tang Sect.Now he represents the Tang Sect and stays by Prince Li Chengqian's side.

Hearing Tang Aoshan said that he could build an undead army for himself, Li Chengqian couldn't help being interested.So he opened his mouth and asked Tang Aoshan: "What is the undead army that Deputy Sect Master Tang mentioned?"

"Tang Sect has an ancient method, which is a kind of poisonous water prepared by using hundreds of poisons. Soldiers bathe in it for many years, which will make them give birth to a pair of copper skin and iron bones. And they will lose any pain sensation." Tang Aoshan said to Li Chengqian said.

"I'm afraid it's not so easy to get such an undead army. If everyone can pass through this poisonous water and become a warrior with copper skin and iron bones, I'm afraid the Tang Sect will no longer be the current Tang Sect." Zheng Chunyuan Smiling and said to Tang Aoshan.

"Mr. Zheng is right. Not everyone can become this undead army. It can even be said that only one person out of a hundred can succeed in the end." Tang Aoshan nodded and said.

"Then what will happen to the remaining 99 people who cannot become the undead army?" Li Chengqian asked Tang Aoshan.

"Their result is that they will be poisoned to death by poisonous water, and there will be no bones left in the end." Tang Aoshan said to Li Chengqian.

"His Royal Highness, on the surface, it is impossible for this undead army to form an army. But in a sense, it is not impossible." Du He said to Li Chengqian.

"I don't know what plan you have, so that I can get the undead army." Li Chengqian asked Du He.

"The headquarters of the Tang Sect is in Bashu, which is the territory of Li Ke, the king of Shu. The Tang Sect can secretly cultivate the undead army there. This is definitely a way to kill two birds with one stone." Du He said to Li Chengqian with a wicked smile.

"Okay, Deputy Sect Master Tang immediately inform Tang Aotian to start cultivating undead troops for the palace. The number should not be less than 5000." Li Chengqian said to Tang Aoshan.

Li Chengqian's words will cause hundreds of thousands of people to die.In the end he will get five thousand undead troops.But at this time, Li Chengqian didn't care about that much. What he needed now was to increase his strength.

"His Royal Highness, I want to get 5000 undead troops. I am afraid that it is unrealistic to train them in one place. We must secretly set up training bases in various state capitals. Only in this way can we form an undead army." Tang Aoshan Team Li Chengqian said.

No one thought that Li Chengqian was starting a crazy plan now.A plan that can be described as genocide.

……

Mexico city.

"My lord, I succeeded, finally succeeded." Gao Ping came to Li Tai excitedly and said.

Seeing Gao Ping's excited expression, Li Tai knew that Gao Ping must have successfully developed the steam engine.

It has been more than four years since the development of this steam engine.After countless failures, it was finally successfully developed today.

What Gao Ping studied was a steam engine powered car.It is Li Tai's blueprint designed according to the steam engine car invented by Trewetick.

"My lord has been waiting for this day for a long time. Now that I have succeeded, let me take me to see it." Li Tai happily said to Gao Ping.

"Everything is ready, and now the steam engine car is on the martial arts arena. After the master arrives, I will test it for everyone." Gao Ping said excitedly to Li Tai.

After Li Tai nodded, he followed Gao Ping to the Martial Arts Field.It has been explained before that there is a huge martial arts arena in Mozhou City.And the location of this martial arts arena is just opposite to the Huaqing Palace.

Therefore, this martial arts field is not something that ordinary people can approach casually.So usually in the martial arts arena, you don't see anyone at all.But today in this Martial arts arena, it is definitely very lively.

Not only the members of the Gao family of the Mo Sect were here, but other disciples of the Mo Sect also rushed over after hearing the news.Even Luo Tong, Qin Huaiyu and others came to watch the fun.

When Li Tai came, he saw everyone pointing at a strange vehicle.I heard Cheng Tieniu say loudly: "It's just such a weird thing that doesn't even need cows and horses. Could it be that he can walk by himself?"

"This time I support the third brother. I really don't believe that this thing can walk. Even if it walks, its speed is definitely not satisfactory." Luo Tong said.

If it was developed by Trewetick, the first steam engine car, its speed is really not as fast as a horse-drawn carriage.The horse-drawn carriage can travel about fifteen kilometers an hour on average.

And the steam engine car manufactured by Trewetick can only reach a speed of about eight or nine kilometers per hour.

But Li Tai's steam engine car is different.First of all, Li Tai installed the bearing at the position of the axle.

Although the bearings were poorly made, they definitely ran much faster than ordinary carriages.

And the wheels of this car are not wooden wheels.But rubber wheels.

In this way, the speed of the steam engine car has been greatly improved.It can already reach a speed of about 15 kilometers per hour.

Just when everyone was discussing, Gao Ping brought Li Tai here.Seeing Li Tai approaching, Cheng Tieniu smiled and said, "My lord, is this thing that Gao Ping tinkered with reliable or not?"

"You'll know if it's reliable or not." Li Tai said to Cheng Tieniu with a smile.Then he asked Gao Ping to start the steam engine car for everyone to take a look.

Gao Ping nodded excitedly, and then got on the steam engine car.At this time, a raging fire had already ignited in the boiler.A large amount of steam has entered the steam engine.

With a chug roar, the steam engine car finally moved.It was very slow at the beginning, but slowly it got faster and faster.

Seeing this scene, everyone couldn't help being stunned. They didn't expect that this weird car could really run by itself, and it had such a speed.

After Gao Ping returned to Li Tai's side, he smiled and said to Li Tai, "My lord, I don't know what you think of this steam engine car."

"The king's initial requirements have been met, but to make him truly play its role, a lot of improvement is still needed. First of all, the speed must be improved. And the raw materials for burning must also be improved." Li Tai Said to Gao Ping.

"Please don't worry, my lord. I will definitely develop a car so that he can meet the requirements of my lord." Gao Ping said confidently.

"My lord, I don't think he's any better than a carriage. Why do you need to invest so much time and manpower to tinker with him?" Qin Huaiyu asked Li Tai puzzled.

"You don't know about this. If it can be successfully developed, wouldn't it be much faster for the common people to travel in the city of Mozhou?" Li Tai said to Qin Huaiyu with a smile.

In fact, Li Tai's real idea was not to make steam engine cars, but to make steam engine trains.Li Tai's initial plan was to lay a railway in the city of Mozhou.

Let this train become a bus in Mozhou City, and then promote it to the outside bit by bit.The ultimate goal is to lay all the railway tracks in the territory of Datang.

Of course, this plan does have a long way to go, but Li Tai believes that he is absolutely capable and has the confidence to accomplish this feat.
