The Strongest Imperial Grandson of the Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1038 Indifferent to Fame and Fortune

"This has no impact at all. Our first batch of departures are mainly sailors from the Navy. They will bombard the coast of Fuso. As for the troops on land, they don't need to leave yet. They still need nearly ten days, so in In these ten days, they can train well without any delay."

I heard that Li Xiang had made arrangements for this matter, so King Wu had no objection. If he supports Li Xiang's strategy, and in this case, if you don't support it, do you think it will be useful to speak out?

Naturally, Cheng Yaojin and Qin Shubao had no objections. They didn't know anything about the water station. They followed there in the early stage just to watch the fun. All the command was in the hands of Navy Admiral Ding Tu. Wait until they can accept it. This new way of fighting may still be useful in the future, but if you can't accept it, you can only stay in the capital to retire.

Of course, after arriving in Fusang, as long as we launch a landing operation, the use of the two old generals will come. Li Xiang did not want to let the two old generals go directly to kill, but when the two old generals landed on the land of Fusang At that time, many Fuso people had heard of their reputation, and it was estimated that they could also have a powerful effect.

That night, everyone except Li Xiang was very nervous. Neither Wu King Li Ke nor the other two old generals had been on the water. Although Li Xiang had promised many times, as long as we didn't encounter too big a storm, we would go There is no problem with Fusang. In the past year, the naval warships have been traveling frequently between Goguryeo and Fusang without any trouble.

But they were still a little worried. After all, the vast sea was different from the land, so they didn't sleep all night. Li Xiang also thought about going there with them, but the emperor's holy edict was placed there. This time, Li Xiang was only allowed to be the general manager of the march, and he just had to prepare the logistics for these people. As for the credit for capturing Fusang, of course it must be given to the King of Wu and the two old generals.

Li Xiang has not cared much about these nonsense things for a long time, not to mention that now he has reached the realm where there is no seal. Even if he is allowed to go, will he be able to become the prince and the emperor when he comes back? ? That is simply impossible. Li Xiang only hopes to give some rewards to his navy brothers when he comes back.

When King Wu got up the next morning, the road leading to the naval warships was lined with large groups of people. These people were all going on the expedition together today. They all carried various things on their shoulders, but The outside is wrapped, and it is said that they are filled with gunpowder and the like.

If there is no war at ordinary times, the gunpowder on the navy warship is also limited. If it is piled up in such a cabin, if a small spark comes, then the entire ship may be reimbursed. If it is in Several nearby ships parked in the port may even cause explosions.

So Li Xiang usually made very strict rules for them. Only some necessary gunpowder could be left on the ship, and there had to be a special cabin. In addition to having a dedicated person to guard it, there had to be someone every two hours. It is only for inspection, and other unrelated personnel are not allowed to approach. This special cabin can only be filled up during war.

The people on the naval warships have practiced overseas and naturally know the power of these gunpowders, so they are also very careful when doing these things. Not only are no open flames allowed on the entire ship, but every soldier is also required to do so. Be very careful about this and they have now gone over a hundred days without any incident.

Two accidents happened before, causing Datang to lose two warships. If it had not happened during the day, many soldiers might have been burned to death inside. Fortunately, everyone had better water resistance and their reaction speed was faster at that time. Most of the people jumped into the water and lurked, otherwise I don't know how many people would have died.

It was precisely because of those two accidents that all naval personnel saw that as long as you are a little careless, you will not only lose your own life, but also those comrades who live with you day and night. You may lose your own life, so in this case, you must cherish your life and the lives of others.

"Your Highness, it's time for us to set off."

Only then did King Wu notice that there was a naval lieutenant next to the tent. This person would stay with King Wu after boarding the ship to introduce some things on the naval warship to King Wu. Of course, he would also be under surveillance. His duty is that even if King Wu is on the naval warship, he cannot move around.

On the one hand, it is to keep our secrets, and on the other hand, it is also for our safety. Nowadays, naval warships are very technological. If you don’t understand anything, you can casually touch all kinds of things on it. Damn it, then it would be a big event on the sea.

King Wu Li Ke was relatively approachable. After hearing what the deputy general said, he packed up his things and followed the people on the ship. King Wu Li Ke boarded a special command ship. Although there were some artillery on it, the focus was still on strong defense. .

Their ship was located in the center of the entire fleet. When they approached Fuso, in addition to the six nearby warships escorting them, there were also a large number of small boats beside them. There was no problem with safety.

"How many warships were dispatched today?"

King Wu asked this question on the way, and maybe the emperor would ask it when he returned to the capital. As the general who conquered Fusang, if he didn't even know this, he would probably be laughed at when he returned.

"Replying to the prince, we have dispatched a total of more than 300 ships of various types this time."

When he heard this number, King Wu didn't have much idea. If Li Xiang were here, of course he would understand how many ships were dispatched this time. This was almost the same scale as Zheng He's voyages to the West, and even more It is much larger than it was then, but it was nearly a thousand years ahead of time. This should be the most powerful fleet in the world.

When King Wu arrived at the port, he realized what the concept of more than 300 warships was. Looking forward from the port, it could almost be said that the sails were covering the sky and the sun, and it was impossible to see the end of the ship at a glance.

"We will win here."

King Wu still doesn't know the combat effectiveness of the navy, but at this moment he only has these four words in his mind.
