Chapter 385: Epoch-making progress

The first to speak was the eldest grandson Wuji, and the eldest grandson Wuji was the secretary of the ministry, and he said without hesitation: "Zhang Yan, the assassin of Xinzhou, is upright and decisive, and can be qualified for the post of Yangzhou assassin. ”

The eldest grandson Wuji and the Chen family have a good relationship now, but when it comes to installing their own people, they will never be ambiguous.

Obviously, the Zhang Yan mentioned by the eldest grandson Wuji must be a protΓ©gΓ© of the eldest grandson's family, and belongs to the object of the eldest grandson Wuji's key cultivation.

Li Shimin remained silent.

That Sun Fujia is also indispensable, he is the secretary of Dali Temple, and he also has the right to advise: "Dali Temple Cheng Wu Weiyong, has always been diligent, he has been in office for six years, there is no negligence, if you can govern one side ......"

Chen Zhengtai said at this time: "Erchen thinks Ma Zhou can." ”

Ma Zhou......

Everyone couldn't help but look at Chen Zhengtai.

In fact, Chen Zhengtai is also weak, Ma Zhou is now a scholar of Donggong Youchunfang University, and now this recommender is really Chen Zhengtai's shortcoming, although the Chen family is already a big business, it looks like the sky, but after all, it is an overnight rich, so the foundation is inevitably still a little shallow, unlike other families with many protΓ©gΓ©s.

Now Chen Zhengtai pinched the number of his fingers, and the person who had the opportunity to take the position of Yangzhou Assassin was afraid that only Ma Zhou was there.

In fact, even Ma Zhou, Chen Zhengtai was a little hesitant, after all, Ma Zhou is now almost taking care of the East Palace, once Ma Zhou has a vacancy, who can replace him?

It's a pity that this group of people led by Deng Jian has not yet grown up, otherwise, why would the Chen family have no one to recommend?

"Isn't Ma Zhou always in the East Palace? The East Palace has a great relationship, if he is ordered to go to Yangzhou, who can replace Ma Zhou's position? Li Shimin shook his head and said!

In fact, Li Shimin's impression of Ma Zhou is very good.

Li Shimin continued: "I think about it again, Zhengtai, since you hope that Lou Shide can make meritorious contributions, then it is best to put your mind on this." ”

Chen Zhengtai was very helpless, so he had to say: "Yes, the minister will go back to cultivate Lou Shide." ”

As he spoke, he didn't hesitate and left.

Li Shimin finally calmed down a little, thinking of being provoked by Goguryeo and Baekje this time, he couldn't help frowning, looked around and said: "Chen Zhengtai asked Zhan Lou Shide to fight again, what do you think?" ”

The ministers were silent for a while, and Li Jing said at this time: "Your Majesty, the ministers think that the imperial court should make complete preparations for the land march. ”

Fang Xuanling and the others couldn't help but nod.

Although Ramology has been abandoned, its remnants are still far-reaching, and the idea of revenge is still deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

Perhaps in later generations, Confucius's doctrine was always too biased towards benevolence.

In fact, in Confucius's doctrine, he focused on courtesy to the monarchs and ministers and taught the people to be benevolent, but he was not so polite to the people of the monarchs and the people.

Therefore, there is: the ram said: The revenge of the ninth world can still be avenged?

Confucius said: The royal road is retro, and the king is respected. The revenge of the tenth generation can still be avenged.

Now that the newspapers have published the news of the destruction of the Yangzhou sea ship, the provocative intentions of Goguryeo and Baekje are known to the world!

If Datang does not retaliate, how can it claim to be the master of China?

Li Jing's words made Li Shimin, Fang Xuanling and others understand in their hearts.

Although the sailors of Goguryeo and Baekje were not invincible, the water war was the shortcoming of the Tang Dynasty, not to mention that it was only a year to supervise the construction of sea ships and find Goguryeo and Baekje sailors to fight. Now the reason why Lou Shide is allowed to atone for his sins is actually ...... It's just that in the name of making meritorious contributions, let Lou Shide delay time, on the other hand, the Tang Dynasty should be vigorous and ready to attack Goguryeo by land at any time.

Li Shimin said: "The military department must draw up a military strategy. ”

As he spoke, Li Shimin glanced at Li Jing deeply, and then said: "Remember, if you fight, you will win the battle." Don't always say what 30,000 iron riders ......"

Li Jing couldn't help but blush.

Since Li Shimin ascended the throne, Li Jing had the opportunity to attack the Turks, but it was a pity that he ...... He missed out on the Turks, and now many generals in the army are lonely and unbearable, and they just can't wait to find another blind to stand up for some credit!

Li Jing as the secretary of the military department, the pressure is also very great, and now it is not easy, His Majesty began to have a heart for Goguryeo, Li Jing in order to encourage Li Shimin to send troops, deliberately reduced the number of soldiers and horses that need to be conscripted.

Li Jing's method is similar to the project bidding in later generations, first win the contract at the lowest price, as for the follow-up of the project, I will talk about it later, anyway, when half of the construction is completed, you will be asked to pay for it, you can't help but give it.

Li Shimin naturally saw through Li Jing's mind at a glance, and unceremoniously poked him directly.

Li Jing hurriedly said: "The minister is dead." ”

Li Shimin sighed and said: "The fleet that attacked me is also a great shame, I thought that the expedition to Goguryeo was not yet mature, but I was afraid that I would have to work hard and mobilize the people, but now it seems that it is ...... But it needs to be put on the agenda quickly, give the military department a year, and be fully prepared. ”

Li Jing was overjoyed, he was quite excited, since he missed out on the expedition to the Turks, Li Jing's military department was under great pressure, and the generals under him complained all day long, Li Jing felt that he was about to be unable to suppress it, and now that His Majesty opened his mouth, he immediately said with his eyebrows fluttering: "Huh." ”

Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui exchanged a look with each other, and they couldn't help but smile bitterly, they naturally knew the consequences of a protracted expedition, Datang was in ruins, even if this battle was a big victory, if production was to be restored, I don't know how many years it would take.

It's just that when it comes to this, it's not easy for them to say anything.

…………

On the other end, Chen Zhengtai returned to Erpigou angrily.

Today, the third uncle was feasting in the house, and a few orchids were playing the pipa, and as soon as they entered the house, they could hear the melodious Hu song.

Chen Fu looked in front of the mansion as early as possible, and when he saw Chen Zhengtai coming back, he said, "All the students will try to come back today...... The uncle was happy and feasted the guests, but unfortunately the son entered the palace, and said that when the son came back, he would hurry up and enter the table. ”

Chen Zhengtai was in a bad mood, so he said angrily: "It's just a test, what kind of guest is the banquet?" It's not high school again. ”

Chen Fu was still happy, and when he saw that Chen Zhengtai didn't like it, he immediately said with a straight face: "Yes, yes, yes, I said the same." ”

However, Chen Zhengtai finally calmed down, thought about it, this is what the third uncle meant, and it was inconvenient to say anything, so he said again: "But the third uncle is happy." ”

Chen Fu nodded again: "Childe is right, I think so too." ”

Chen Zhengtai made a gesture to kick him: "Can you not see the wind and make the rudder." ”

Chen Fu looked aggrieved: "Son, it is my duty to see the wind and rudder, otherwise, how to serve Childe?" I saw that the wind made the rudder, as if the ministers had advised the monarch to work hard for the peasants and the workers to work hard. ”

Chen Zhengtai was happy, and thought about it in his heart: "The list has not been released yet, and now the banquet is not appropriate after all, and it is inevitable that people will think that our Chen family is getting carried away." ”

"Actually...... Uncle's banquet is not for the guests. Chen Fu Zhengse said: "Uncle means that these students, when they win the list, I am afraid that they will not be able to stay in the school, from now on, they will all be ranked in the court class, they are all painstakingly taught by the son, it is the wings of our Chen family, while everyone is still in the school, take care of them more, so that they can always remember the kindness of our Chen family." If you only blindly teach them to read, this is certainly the grace of recreation, but there is always a layer of meaning. Therefore, I will try to feast guests today, and when the list is released, I will be lively again, which shows that the Chen family values them. ”

Chen Zhengtai: "......"

The skill points of the third uncle ...... It's a little crooked.

It's all in strange places.

However, for this kind of thing, Chen Zhengtai felt that he was powerless to refute, so he coughed and said: "Okay, okay, I know, I won't go, there is something today, I will go to the study now, someone will definitely come to see you later, you remember to lead people to the study." ”

Chen Fu responded honestly.

When Chen Zhengtai arrived at the study, not long after he sat down, someone came to visit.

Chen Fu led the person to the study, and when he saw Chen Zhengtai, he bowed down with tears in his eyes and said: "The disciple Lou Shixian has seen the benefactor, and the brother is really a capital crime this time, so he ordered the disciple to come to Chang'an overnight to find the benefactor, and begged the benefactor to rescue." ”

This Lou Shixian is Lou Shide's brother, after the destruction of the fleet, Lou Shide already felt bad, not that the loss of the ship is a big crime, in fact, he is really wronged, who would have thought that this fleet went to sea, and encountered the joint sailors of Goguryeo and Baekje?

It's just that Lou Shide quickly realized that he was the Yangzhou Thorn History, and the position of the Yangzhou Thorn History was extremely sensitive, and there were many people in the world staring at it. What's more, he implemented a new policy in Yangzhou, and I don't know how many people he offended, everyone didn't dare to speak up on weekdays, and now he has to operate in the DPRK.

After thinking about it, the only person in the world who could save him Lou Shide was Chen Zhengtai, so he hurriedly asked his brother Lou Shixian to come to Chang'an to discuss countermeasures first.

Chen Zhengtai glanced at Lou Shixian, this person was still young, and he looked like a frightened bird, his face was full of panic, and after bowing, he refused to get up again.

Chen Zhengtai looked at him with a cold face: "Since you know the sin is serious, you must remember this lesson, just now, I have entered the palace to face the saint, and naturally try my best to defend your brother, the responsibility for this crime is not on him, so His Majesty intends to demote him to the captain of Yangzhou Waterway and give him a chance to make meritorious contributions, but ...... There's no next time, you know? ”

When Lou Shixian heard this, he let out a long breath.

In fact, he thought that the worst result would be dismissal or exile, but only from the fourth-rank Yangzhou assassin to the fifth-rank lieutenant, which was the best result for Lou Shide.

Of course, although the difference between the captain and the assassin is only a difference in rank, the actual difference is very different, after all, the assassin is in charge of one side, acting in charge of military and civil affairs, and is the parent official of Yangzhou. And the lieutenant ...... It's just one of the subordinate officials.

Chen Zhengtai immediately asked about the naval battle.

At the beginning, only two ships escaped back, Lou Shixian of course did not dare to hide it, probably said something, on the one hand, the ships of Goguryeo and Baekje poured out, there were hundreds of them, the sails in the sea can be said to cover the sky and the sun, the ships of Goguryeo are quite strong, and the ships of Baekje are not weak, after all, they are near the sea, and they live on ships all the year round, and their best tactics are to use fast ships to directly hit the ships of the Tang Dynasty, after the ships of the Tang Dynasty were hit, they immediately drafted, and then tilted, and then, they used rope hooks to control the ships of the Tang Dynasty, a large number of sailors boarded the ship along the rope ladder to fight.

When Chen Zhengtai heard this, he couldn't help but say: "As soon as it hits, the ship enters the water, will the ship capsize?" ”

"Of course, if the ship enters the water, where is the reason why it will capsize without entering the water?"

Chen Zhengtai frowned and said, "Isn't there a watertight cabin?" ”

Lou Shixian was also stunned: "What watertight cabin?" ”

Chen Zhengtai: "......"

For this watertight cabin, Chen Zhengtai originally thought that the Tang Dynasty already had it at this time, although in later generations, in archaeological excavations, the ships of this watertight cabin were indeed discovered in the Tang Dynasty, but from some ancient books, the history of the watertight cabin may be farther.

The watertight compartment is easy for sea vessels, especially combat sea ships, and is undoubtedly an artifact, which greatly improves the safety of the ship and can ensure that the ship can continue to sail after being destroyed in many places.

It is equivalent to that if an ordinary sea ship has only one life, and a ship with a watertight cabin has several lives, it will belong to RMB players if it is placed in an online game.

And this is also one of the greatest inventions in the history of ancient Chinese ships.

Chen Zhengtai originally thought that the watertight cabin should have appeared a long time ago at this time, but now looking at Lou Shixian's confused look, he thought in his heart that maybe it was just a very simple watertight cabin structure at this time, and it didn't have much effect, or maybe it hadn't become popular at all.

Chen Zhengtai immediately cheered up: "You will draw me the appearance of this Yangzhou ship, and I will see with my own eyes how you make the ship." ”

Where does Lou Shixian dare to slack off, this shipbuilding matter is a big deal in Yangzhou, after all, he acted according to Chen Zhengtai's orders, he is Lou Shide's brother, Lou Shide naturally handed over this important matter to Lou Shixian to be responsible.

Lou Shixian didn't dare to hesitate, took pen and ink, and roughly painted the shape of the sea ship.

Chen Zhengtai looked at the drawings again and again, and suddenly understood something, not only did it not have a watertight cabin, but it also did not rely on a keel to make a ship.

Keel boats, should have appeared in the Song Dynasty, after the appearance of such a thing, the ability of sea ships to resist wind and waves has been greatly enhanced, and the ships are more durable than previous ships.

Chen Zhengtai asked, "Are the ships of Goguryeo and Baekje like this?" ”

"Yes." Lou Shixian said honestly: "In fact, in the past, the ships of Goguryeo and Baekje were greatly backward, but when Emperor Yang of Sui conquered Goguryeo, a large number of craftsmen were captured by Goguryeo and Baekje...... Accustomed to turbulence on the sea, he is better than my Datang sailors. ”

When Chen Zhengtai heard this, he smiled: "If it is not much different from the sea ship in Yangzhou, then it will be easy to do, your brother is a waterway captain, now go back and tell him, let him rebuild the ship, and fight again on another day, but this ship, but it can no longer be built like before, I will first draw a drawing of a new ship, you will build it according to my method, you can rest assured, according to my method, your brother will have a chance to win, and then ...... It is not permissible to wear guilt and make meritorious contributions. ”
