Datang Nongsheng

Chapter 616 The Quietly Changing World Pattern
It is no one to fight a war like a military exercise.

The Baotou steel battleship was not afraid of the small flames from the ruined ships at all. After someone at the bow pushed the driftwood of the burned ships to both sides with a long steel fork, a road was cleared very quickly.

Zhao Long needs to re-evaluate the burning ability of the kerosene bombs on the sea surface. Don't look at the fact that ten hot air balloons were launched and dozens of kerosene bombs were dropped, but the area of ​​the fire in an instant reached nearly a thousand square meters. meters, hundreds of boats were ignited, and then, under the action of the sea wind, these crowded boats burned each other too much. There are less than a thousand ships in the Japanese fleet that are still intact.

However, in an hour or so, Stable House has accumulated more than two years, and built more than 3000 warships, three-quarters of which were destroyed. The navy of nearly 3 people is now alive, and less than [-] , Is Tang Jun really here to fight?Slaughtering pigs is not so fast!
When Stable House saw those tall ship sides exuding black metal light coming in front of him, he knelt down directly, because he knew that if he dared to hesitate, Tang Jun just had to let go. In less than an hour, they hadn't All the people on the burnt warship will be buried in the sea of ​​flames.

In just one hour of war, Tang Jun's outlook on life and values ​​were completely subverted by Tang Jun. Now he knows that Inugami Mita hadn't lied to him back then.

"Trap the most fancy-dressed guy and drag them onto the boat. These ships that have not passed behind will line up from the channel we cleared. If they have the courage to escape, we will directly sink them all into the sea. "

Zhao Long gave the order, and the sailors followed suit immediately. A sailor skillfully threw a rope with loops towards the stable, and then he was caught and dragged into the sea. After choking on a few mouthfuls of water, he was hanged. On the deck where the flagship is.

There were sailors on the ship who understood the Japanese language, and under Zhao Long's instruction, they shouted at the Japanese ships that had not yet been fired, "From now on, if there is one person holding a weapon on board, the entire ship will be beheaded. Anyone who dares to escape by boat, Our army will directly smash it into pieces and sink to the bottom of the sea. All ships line up and follow our army's big ship to leave the harbor area."

escape?Who dares to escape?

The Datang Navy proved its invincibility at sea several years ago. Didn’t you see the encirclement circle of hundreds of water tankers and warships in the distance? , not half the speed of other people's steamships, there is no possibility of escape.

The shivering stables on the deck were covered with quilts. The sailor who came up kicked him and knelt down in front of Zhang Gongjin.

"You should know Chinese! Tell me, what is your status in Japan." Zhang Gongjin glanced at the miserable face of the stable household and said.

"I'm the emperor of the Japanese kingdom, you can't treat me like this." Stableto wanted to break free from the rope and stand up, but he couldn't break free at all.

"catch."

It was actually an emperor, the sailor who was still holding the noose firmly, his body froze, he looked at his feet, and felt an inexplicable sense of refreshment in his heart, just now he kicked the Emperor of Japan to the ground.

"You are the emperor's stable household? What evidence do you have?" Not only the sailor who kicked him, but also Zhao Long and Zhang Gongjin were really surprised. Unexpectedly, they just arrived in the Wa Kingdom, and they caught the biggest fish in the Wa Kingdom. up.

"I, on my waist, have the emperor's seal."

Stable Household glanced at his waist, a yellow brocade pouch was still hanging on it, Zhao Long stretched out his hand, and pulled it off, opened it to see, it really was.

"Hehe, the Japanese people love to learn the regulations of our dynasty. This thing should be equivalent to their jade seal, or a soldier's talisman for dispatching troops. With it in hand, those guys on the shore will be easy to deal with."

"You guys, why do you want to attack our Japanese country? It's not allowed." Hearing Zhao Long's words, the stable household became anxious and shouted.

"Is it possible? It's not up to you. If you insist on finding a reason, it's that I think you Japanese are not happy. That's fine!"

The other courtiers of Datang might not know about it, but Zhao Long knew very well that in the several military operations against Datang, the Wa Kingdom had participated in all of them. Fortunately, many of them were killed by Yuan Gai Su Wenkeng, otherwise If so, maybe this stable household can mobilize more than a dozen or 20 troops now!
Zhang Gongjin looked at the seal letter that Zhao Long handed over, stared into the eyes of the stable household and said, "I just want to ask you a question, do you want to continue to die in the Wa Kingdom? If you want to, we don't mind letting you see them die. If you don't want to, Immediately order all the troops to surrender to our army, I believe you have also seen that it only takes an hour for us to deal with them."

"Pay, surrender?" Stable household was depressed when he heard the words. The 5-odd army he brought out was the strongest army in the Wa Kingdom. If this army surrendered, it would mean that the entire Wa Kingdom would be subjugated. But think about yourself now What is the difference between the current situation and subjugation?
"We wanted to express our surrender to Datang early in the morning, but our envoy never came back every time..."

"I think you misunderstood what I meant. You, the Japanese country, are not even qualified to submit to our Tang Dynasty. Now, you are just our prisoners of war, including you, Stable House. Just your title of 'Emperor' is already enough. It's disrespectful to His Majesty the Great Tang Emperor." Zhang Gongjin explained to the stable household very calmly, and looked at Zhao Long again.

Zhao Long quickly understood what he meant, and ordered the sailors to trap all the guys who looked like officials on the ship, and then, it was not up to the stables to have different opinions on the next thing. .

An hour of fighting has destroyed a country with a population of nearly one million. This is the great result of the Battle of Kyushu Island.

Afterwards, with stable households and a group of Japanese ministers in hand, the army on land can be easily controlled. However, these are Zhang Gongjin's affairs. He has free time, and it is no problem to completely rule the Wa country. Zhang Long has to hurry To complete the settlement of the remnants of Wang Hao on Yizhou Island, Luzon Island, and the coastal islands of India, he just went ashore and spent a quarter of an hour breaking through the remnants of Wang Hao who only had a few hundred people. After beheading all of them, he Sailed away.

At the beginning of March, when Li Shimin landed at the Jiangling Wharf, he received a letter from Feige from the peninsula. A month later, Zhang Gongjin would send people to escort the stable household to Jiangling to offer prisoners to Li Shimin, and he himself would Stay with the pirates, continue to settle all dissatisfaction, and bring them all under the rule of the Tang Dynasty as soon as possible. Of course, Zhang Gongjin will definitely write a lot about the navy's fighting methods and fighting process in the letter. These naval and air combat methods, In land warfare, it can definitely be applied. Datang only needs to manufacture a large number of these things now to maintain a war advantage against all enemy countries.

At the same time, Heraclius, who had been away for half a year, finally returned to Constantinople. He was accompanied by [-] soldiers, so he brought back a lot of things. In Times Square in Dingxiang He had scanned almost all the high-end goods on sale, and just after entering the city, he impatiently delivered these top-notch goods to his father.

Then, when Heraclius told his father, Emperor Flavis Heraclius, what he saw and heard in the Tang Dynasty this time, the atmosphere in the entire palace became heavy.

As the terminal sales market of the Silk Road, they did not know that the Eastern Empire, which exported goods to them in the past, had become so powerful. It is no wonder that in recent years, their Byzantine Empire rarely exported goods, but the goods that came in, But more and more, the economy has always been stable, and the Byzantine Empire, which has never lacked gold and silver currencies, gradually felt that the currency on the market was tense.

This is a new issue, and they need to hold the largest political meeting to discuss it. However, there is one thing they can confirm immediately, that is, in the current situation where the war with the Arabs is retreating steadily, it is not appropriate for them to fight with the Tang Dynasty. Such an eastern power is an enemy, and it is necessary to learn more advanced culture and various craftsmanship from Datang. Fortunately, Heraclius had already negotiated with Datang on some places for studying abroad when he was in Datang. However, Flavis felt that it would be better to send multiple people to study in Datang, because the things that Chirac brought back to Constantinople were so good, even the food was delicious and delicate enough to include Flavius. A sensible person like Si feels that even if he spends a lot of money to buy it, it is still worth it.

Representatives from many countries, like Heraclius when he returned to China, immediately convened all management meetings, especially those countries that had negotiated projects with Datang’s mission to the Western Regions. Enough confidence.

However, after seeing the tip of the iceberg in Datang, their confidence has grown from insufficient to overwhelming. Those who were arranged by Ma Zhou to discuss business cooperation with them, the managers of factory development, technicians, etc., were directly regarded as domestic honored guests by them. , because they too much want their backward country to be as rich as Datang, even if they follow in the footsteps of Datang, they will be many times stronger than before.

Because the distance is too far, it must be very troublesome to communicate these things back and forth. The Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Commerce each sent a doctor-level official to lead a group of subordinate officials. After several months of preparation, they began to set off for the capital of Anxi. Hufu, from now on, they will be stationed in Suiye City to support the development of these cooperative projects nearby.

On the Jiangling Wharf, Li Shimin, who had just disembarked and walked into the street in the front row of the storage area, was attracted by the long row of flags waving in the wind in front of him, almost the same as when Changsun Wuji came here, and came to greet him The eldest grandson Wuji naturally made preparations long ago. He booked dozens of booths for the officials present, and the dining place was on the river embankment next to the pier. At this location , You can see the scene of busy people coming and going on the pier.

"It's easy for the eldest grandson to treat me to dinner like this." Fang Xuanling followed Li Shimin to watch the Jiangling pier from a high place, and after sitting in front of a long row of small stools and small tables on the river embankment, He was the first to joke.

"Hehe, it's not frivolous, it's very frivolous. Guess how much it would cost for nearly a hundred court officials and over a thousand entourages to eat like this?"

"Since you said it is very easy, it will only cost a few hundred guan at most."

"Hahahaha, hundreds of pens."

Changsun Wuji laughed loudly while shaking his head, then he pointed five fingers at Fang Xuanling and said, "Fifty guan, this is because the old man hired them for an hour and specially added some price. You go to the booth and order and eat like ordinary people. It is difficult for each person to spend more than [-] yuan, and for a thousand people, it is less than [-] yuan. And as long as they pay fifty yuan, they can instantly Set up the scene at the location I designated, from beginning to end, I just need to give money and tell them how many guests I have to eat."

Hearing that, including Li Shimin, all the courtiers looked at Changsun Wuji. From their point of view, although the food types on the table were not large, there were many types. There were several kinds of fish, chicken and duck. Eggs, vermicelli, braised meat, seasonal vegetables, everything, how can it be so cheap?

The most important thing is that they know that these things are the industries of Jiuyuan County, and it is because of these industries and earned money that Jiuyuan County can guarantee that everyone has free medical care, education, and pension services, so they are even more confused What's more, these foods are sold so cheaply, how did Jiuyuan County make a huge profit?
