The building of the palace of Sri Buddha does not look very tall, but the furnishings inside are still very good, it looks very comfortable, and because the ventilation and shade are relatively in place, people do not feel hot at all when they stay in the room, and there is a very cool feeling.

The palace maids here are all beautiful and young, and the clothes they wear also give people a cool feeling, which is more comfortable to look at.

Li An finished breakfast and lunch, went around the palace and went into the guest room to sleep, he was woken up in the morning, in fact, he didn't sleep enough at all, and it was a good choice to make up for sleep at noon.

King Sri Buddha got up an hour early in the morning, and after more than an hour of hard work in the harbor, his physical exertion was very great, and he finally sent Ang Lee away, so he naturally had to sleep well and replenish his spirit.

However, early tomorrow morning, he will accompany Li An to hunt, so there are some tasks that must be arranged in advance, so as not to be able to hunt tigers by then and disappoint Li An.

He immediately called several generals from his country and prepared to issue deployment tasks.

"Your Majesty, what instructions do you have?"

A few stout generals asked.

King Sri Buddha yawned and said, "The king of Ming Japan wants to accompany Li Shilang to hunt tigers in the mountains, but if you can't meet tigers at all, then Li Shilang will definitely be unhappy, so you must deploy in advance to force the tigers within a certain range to facilitate tomorrow's hunting." ”

"All right, Your Majesty, let's go and prepare."

Several generals replied loudly, this is a task that is not too difficult, and they have performed such a task many times.

In fact, in ancient times, if ordinary people wanted to hunt, it was completely by luck, and they could hunt when they encountered prey, and if they couldn't meet prey, they could only return empty-handed.

But the royal and noble hunting, this is not the case, before they hunt, they will send a large number of soldiers and horses to demarcate the hunting area, these soldiers and horses will completely block the hunting area, do not allow idle people and others to enter at will, in case of accidents, or assassins.

In addition, when hunting, there will be a large number of people and horses responsible for driving the prey, driving all the prey to the front of the nobles, so that the nobles can hunt the prey more easily, at least, but also to narrow the range of prey activities, otherwise, such a large forest, where do you let the nobles go to find the prey, and, in the process of driving, you can also find hidden beasts, so as to avoid the hunting nobles being attacked by the prey, unpredictable dangers occur.

Therefore, since ancient times, the nobles are mainly hunting, rather than running into the forest to hunt, such a large-scale hunting, is more costly, the interference to the common people is also relatively large, the general Qingming monarch will not hunt often, so as not to interfere with the daily life of the people.

Just imagine, a large-scale dispatch of soldiers and horses will definitely damage some crops along the way, reduce the yield of the people's fields, and after the hunting, the hunters can not go into the mountains to hunt, and the ordinary people can not go up the mountains to cut firewood, so that the daily life of the people will be disturbed.

Generally, aristocratic hunting is regular, such as spring hunting, autumn hunting and the like, especially autumn hunting is the most popular, because in autumn, many prey are stockpiling fat and preparing to survive the cold winter, so the animals are relatively fat and healthy, and such prey is the most in line with the taste of the nobility.

Moreover, the climate in autumn is also relatively comfortable, it is said that the autumn is high and cool, the temperature is not hot or cold, in this season to go out hunting, the body is very enjoyable, if it is hunting in summer, it is very hot, and in winter it is severe cold, which is not suitable for hunting.

As for the spring hunt, it is similar to the autumn hunting, the climate is also relatively comfortable, and the spring plants are just beginning to bud, and you can also go green while hunting, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.

Of course, the so-called spring, summer, autumn and winter only exist in temperate regions, and tropical regions such as Sri Buddha do not feel the changes of the four seasons at all, and the climate will always be the same.

There are no four seasons in the tropics, and depending on the terrain and vegetation, there are tropical rainforest climates, tropical desert climates, and tropical monsoon climates.

Among them, the tropical rainforest climate is high temperature and rain throughout the year, there is no obvious seasonal change, the weather is always extremely humid, and the tropical desert climate is high temperature and drought throughout the year, and there is no obvious assembly change, only the tropical monsoon climate is divided into two seasons, the dry season is high temperature and little rain, the vegetation withers, the animals generally have to carry out large-scale migration movements, in order to seek water and food, and the rainy season is high temperature and rainy, the vegetation is luxuriant, suitable for the survival of animals and plants.

Most of the territory where Sri Buddha died had a tropical rainforest climate, with high temperatures and rains throughout the year, and the seasons were not felt at all.

The tropical rainforest climate is very disturbing to hunting, because heavy rain can seriously interfere with hunting operations, who wants to go hunting in the rain? Rain can also wash away the prey's tracks, making it impossible for hunters to track their prey at all.

Of course, the tropical rainforest climate is just hot and rainy, which does not mean that it rains every day, there are still sunny days, and it is also a good choice to use sunny days to hunt.

In the era of Datang, there is no weather forecast, but experienced people can still predict the climate characteristics for a period of time according to some celestial phenomena, so it is completely possible to judge the weather conditions in the next few days.

Ang Lee's fleet also carried a large number of astronomical telescopes, and he observed all the way, after all, ships at sea must always pay attention to the direction, once the direction is wrong, unpredictable things may happen.

Astronomical telescopes have the role of predicting the weather as well as determining the direction of navigation at sea, and although the compass has long been invented, there is nothing wrong with double insurance.

After explaining the matter of arranging the hunt, the deceased Sri Buddha lay down to rest, he was tired all morning, and he had to sleep until the evening before he could get up.

Dinner was set in the main hall of the palace, the food was rich, and the program was exciting, which Li Ang did not expect at all, and it was not easy for a small country like Sri Buddha to make such a big move.

Ang Lee was very satisfied, and immediately said that he had been an old friend abroad for many years, and he would always be friends in the future, and Datang and Sri Buddha would always be a family.

When he heard that the country of Dragon's Tooth Gate was controlled by pirates, he was nervous for half a month and did not sleep peacefully, for fear that the black wolf would send the main pirate to appear in the port where Sri Buddha died, so that his kingdom was likely to be lost.

When he heard that the black wolf was exterminated by the Tang Dynasty, he was excited for a few days without sleeping, celebrated happily for a few nights, and sent officials to Malacca to express his gratitude to the Tang court.

But after the huge threat of the black wolf disappeared, he began to worry about the small pirates around him again, after all, the black wolf group also grew from small pirates, in case one of the surrounding pirates suddenly grows and absorbs the power of the rest of the pirates, it will soon be able to form a powerful pirate force of thousands of people, so that it is a huge threat to his kingdom soldiers.

In order to eliminate the pirates, he sent 2,000 men and horses to encircle and suppress one of the pirates, wanting to be his own royal prestige, but also to show loyalty to the Tang court, but the 2,000 soldiers and horses he sent lost more than 100 people, injured 3 or 400 people, and eliminated less than 50 pirates, and never broke through the pirate lair, after a stalemate of two days, Sri Buddha's dead soldiers and horses had to retreat, giving up the encirclement and suppression of the pirates, because the casualties were too great, and there was no point in continuing to fight.

But what he didn't expect was that the Tang army divided into five routes and easily wiped out the pirate lair, including the one that Sri Buddha had surrounded and suppressed.

Sri Buddha lost the pirate's lair, which hundreds of people had not been able to take, and the Tang army took it with almost no casualties, and it only took a short time, the gap in combat effectiveness was really terrifying.

The king's compliment made Li An very comfortable, the combat effectiveness of the Tang army can become so strong, it is all his credit, if it were not for him to promote industry and invent black powder and machinery, how could the Tang army have such a strong combat effectiveness, how could it easily destroy the pirates.

However, Li An did not agree to the suggestion that he wanted to buy the advanced weapons of the Tang Army revealed in the words of King Sri Buddha, after all, the power of these advanced weapons is too powerful, and whether to sell them to Sri Buddha is not something that Li An alone can say, and the Tang Dynasty must agree.

Of course, with Ang Lee's idea, as long as they can be sold at a higher price, some second-rate advanced weapons can still be sold to friendly countries, after all, they are only second-rate, and selling them to friendly countries will not pose much of a threat to Datang.

In addition, at the level of these backward and small countries, they are absolutely incapable of copying Datang weapons, so there is no leakage.

Take artillery as an example, although it is only an iron pipe, but the foundry industry has high requirements, if it does not meet the process requirements, not only can not fire shells normally, but also may burst the barrel, causing irreparable losses.

Therefore, Datang sells a few to friendly countries, and friendly countries can only have these few, and the same is true for artillery shells, Datang will sell them a corresponding number of flowering shells according to the actual combat needs of these small countries, and as for the iron balls that are implemented, they produce them themselves, and they can't threaten Datang.

"His Royal Highness the King, the matter of artillery, this official really can't sit on the throne, and he must nod from the court, but you can directly go to the Tang Dynasty court and point out the needs of your country, maybe the court will agree, and maybe sell a few to you."

Li An said seriously.

For the deceased king of Sri Buddha hinted that he wanted to buy artillery, Li An was supportive, and buying a dozen artillery pieces for them at will can also give them strong courage, and after the flowering shells are used up, they will buy them again, so it will be a long-term big business, and it will bring a steady stream of financial resources to the Tang Dynasty.

But what the imperial court will think, Li An is not very sure, so he can't be the master of the weapons sold to the deceased king of Sri Buddha, the Tang Dynasty, this arms business, Sri Buddha himself needs to apply to the Tang court.

When King Sri Buddha heard this, he said, "Li Shilang, how should Xiao Wang apply for it?" ”

"This is not simple, you say that Sri Buddha will always be loyal to the Tang Dynasty, and the surrounding pirates often invade, and the officers and soldiers are powerless, so they beg to buy ten artillery pieces to enhance their strength against pirates and assist the Tang Dynasty to jointly maintain stability at sea, and the imperial court weighs the pros and cons, and may agree."

Ang Lee said with a smile.

"Yes, yes, Xiao Wang remembered, come, let's continue drinking."

King Sri Buddha said politely.

After a few more drinks, King Sri Buddha said, "Li Shilang, there are far more than five pirates around my Sri Buddha's death, Xiao Wang really wants to personally lead the elite soldiers to exterminate the pirates, and also see with his own eyes the pirates who are beaten and urinated." ”

After saying that, he was intoxicated.

Obviously, any man would fantasize about being the most powerful leader, commanding thousands of armies to wipe out the whole world and bring everyone under his feet.

This feeling is very refreshing, but the king of Sri Buddha has obviously never enjoyed this refreshing feeling, the reason is that Sri Buddha is too weak, and even the small group of pirates around him cannot be completely eliminated, and he also led thousands of troops and horses to level the whole world.

"What's so difficult about this, after hunting tomorrow, this official can accompany His Royal Highness the King to sweep the pirate's lair, so that His Royal Highness the King can see with his own eyes how my Tang Army swept the pirate's lair, haha!"

Ang Lee said loudly.

"That's great, Xiao Wang will let his soldiers and horses lead the way, and we will go together to exterminate the pirates."

King Sri Buddha was very excited, he had never personally exterminated the pirate's lair, this time he accompanied the Tang army to exterminate the pirate's lair, it would definitely not be dangerous, because there were powerful Tang army soldiers covering.

The dinner was a great success, everyone was very happy to eat and drink, the topic was extremely speculative, and the banquet ended successfully in a cheerful atmosphere.

The dinner party was a bit too much, and if you went straight to sleep, it would bring a great burden to the body, so Ang Lee and the deceased King Sri Buddha walked around the palace and talked about some topics of interest to both parties again, until their stomachs were almost digested, and then they went back to rest.

The treatment given to Ang Lee by the deceased king of Sri Buddha was very high-end, in addition to good food and accommodation, he also let four beautiful and moving palace maids come to serve, and it was an all-round service.

However, Ang Lee is going to hunt in the wild early the next morning, so if you have to rest early, you will naturally not be able to enjoy the beauty well.

And in order to show sincerity, the beauties that the deceased king Sri Buddha gave to Ang Lee are all chicks that may not have been cultivated, so Ang Lee has no reason to let go, no need to use it in vain!
