The problem that Li An was thinking about was to choose a good name for the new port, a more suitable name, and in addition, he had to think about how to intimidate the Western Tianzhu court and make them obedient.

Although the strength of the Tang Dynasty is very strong, and the main fleet also has enough strength to deter the Western Tianzhu Imperial Court, it is far from enough to rely on force, and it is necessary to convince people with reason in order to solve the problem fundamentally, and force can only be an auxiliary role forever.

Of course, just from the point of indulging pirates in Xi Tianzhu, Li An has enough reason to reprimand the West Tianzhu court, in addition, when the time comes, if you find some businessmen to accompany you to find trouble, you will definitely be able to suppress the West Tianzhu court, and the Tang Dynasty has the view of safeguarding the interests of merchants and the people, which is enough to make them have nothing to say, and the cannon behind them is the guarantee of strength, enough for them to sign an alliance under the city.

Zhao Junzhu led 2,000 vanguard soldiers and horses, and soon set off, they took the fastest ships, in order to ensure that they could reach the port in the shortest possible time, and support the advance team, to achieve full control of the port, and appropriate sorties, all the remnants of the pirates were wiped out.

And Ang Lee's main fleet, because there are too many ships of all kinds, the speed of travel will be greatly affected, and it will definitely not be able to move quickly, and there is no need to go too fast.

It is enough for the vanguard fleet to reinforce the advance team, Li An does not need to be in a hurry, and he needs to go to Xitianzhu first to seek the greatest interests of Datang.

There are too many unknown things in the new journey, Li Ang lies on the couch at night, some can't sleep, every time he goes to a strange place, Li An will have a short period of insomnia, maybe it's excitement, maybe it's nervousness, or, there's a touch of anxiety.

"Ah Lang still can't sleep?"

A slippery body was attached to Ang Lee's body, and his pink little hands gently stroked Ang Lee's firm chest.

When you go out, you will inevitably encounter a lot of unhappy things, and you can't feel anything during the day, but at night, you will feel lonely.

Regardless of whether he is doing business or not, Ang Lee will let the maid rest with him, and when he is unhappy, he will touch it a few times, and his heart will suddenly be much more comfortable, and the woman's soft body can always soothe Ang Lee's wandering heart.

"I'm going to leave suddenly, I'm a little reluctant, and you're losing sleep."

Ang Lee took a deep breath and gently stroked Yun'er's smooth belly, every cell in her body was so comfortable.

"Ah Lang doesn't sleep, how dare Yun'er sleep, the night is long, otherwise, we ......"

Yuna blew in Ang Lee's ear, making Ang Lee numb all over.

"Yun'er still understands me."

Li An didn't say too much, directly bit Yun'er's lip, and gently turned over and pressed it.

Early in the morning of the second day, Li An said goodbye to Chen Tingshi and others who came to see him off, and led the huge main fleet to the northwest.

Along the way, Li Ang has seen a lot of the scene of the fleet chopping waves, but he has never been tired of seeing it, and the turbulent waves of the sea make people admire, and it also makes people sigh about their own insignificance.

In the face of the vast sea, the human body is too small, even if it is a huge steam ship, compared to the sea, it is still small and pitiful.

Standing close to the sea will make people's minds extremely broad, and when you are in a bad mood, going to the beach to see the sea will gradually improve your mood.

On the way, Li An gave the port a very domineering name, called Zhenxi Port, and a large area of land near Zhenxi Port will be assigned to Datang, so it should naturally be called Zhenxi Prefecture.

This name was given by Li An, which is not counted, and it must be recognized by the imperial court before it can be officially called this name.

Two hundred miles southeast of Zhenxi Port, it is an important port of West Tianzhu, this port is not very far from the capital of West Tianzhu, only a hundred miles away, so this is also an important port with heavy garrisons, the garrison size of the entire port city is more than two thousand, this scale is a very high number in a small country of this grade in West Tianzhu.

Ang Lee's next goal is to go to this port and obtain a large amount of land resources for Datang through negotiations with Xi Tianzhu.

In order to safeguard the interests of businessmen, Ang Lee can completely put forward territorial claims against Xi Tianzhu, and if Xi Tianzhu opposes some of them, then you are welcome, and directly support the opposition to come to power.

In the cabin, Li An thought of a lot of schemes, and at the same time, according to the actual situation, use those merchants who have been robbed by pirates, let them support themselves, if necessary, you can also invite some soldiers with better acting skills, let them pretend to be robbed merchants, so as to ruthlessly black a pirate, and at the same time, let more people hate the inaction of the Western Tianzhu court.

There are more than 10,000 soldiers and horses in the Tang Dynasty, and there are all kinds of talents, among them, there is no shortage of people with first-class acting skills.

Soon, the nimble-minded acting school was selected and sent to Ang Lee's boat.

Ang Lee asked his subordinates to prepare the merchants' clothes for them and let them start the show.

"You are now a businessman who has been robbed by pirates and escaped with nine deaths, how should you accuse pirates, let's put on a show!"

Ang Lee personally ordered to see how they acted.

"Wow, whoa, these pirates are inhuman! They robbed me of a shipload of goods, it wasn't enough, and they killed my relatives, even my five-year-old daughter, it's so hateful, wow wow wow! ”

A soldier was crying hoarsely and wiping his tears, the tears were all real, they had just flowed out, which was enough to show that this soldier was really good at acting, and even Ang Lee felt it was true when he saw it, as if this person had really just been robbed by pirates.

"Wow, my brother, you died so miserably! You haven't married a daughter-in-law yet? Damn pirates killed my brother, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa......"

This is two people cooperating in acting, one pretending to be dead, the other is responsible for crying, pretending to be quite similar, the tears are all real, and the dead man lying on the ground is the same as the real one, motionless.

Soon, more than a dozen people with better acting skills all performed once, and the effect was very good.

Li An nodded with great satisfaction and praised: "The acting skills of several of you are really very good, the official is very happy, I believe that you will be able to perform the tasks assigned to you by the official, the specific task, the official will personally arrange it later, you go down!" ”

"Li Shilang, can you use this person to deal with the Western Tianzhu Imperial Court?"

One of his subordinates said disdainfully.

Li An replied seriously: "Although the Western Tianzhu court is much weaker than our Tang Dynasty, however, we must convince people with reason, and let the people of Western Tianzhu know how inaction and hateful their court is, and we can't force them to cede land by virtue of their strength, which will make people feel that our Datang is taking advantage of it, and our Datang is the most civilized big country, how can we do things that bully the weak?" ”

After speaking, his face was full of honest expressions.

The subordinates looked at Li An, and they all held back a smile, thinking that Li An was too funny, asking for territory from a sovereign country, and actually daring to say that he did not bully the weak.

Ang Lee's premeditated behavior now is to bully the weak, but he is doing it more tactfully and has a certain degree of confusion, such as the widows of later generations, who have been blatantly bullying the weak Huaxia, but the surface work is still being done, such as goodwill! Prosperity together! In short, it is to give people the illusion that the Japanese are civilized and are here to help China.

Of course, Li An will do better, be more in place, and will be strict with military discipline, and will definitely not let the Tang Dynasty soldiers harm the people of Xitianzhu, and moreover, he will do some good things to make the people of Xitianzhu grateful to Dade.

In this way, the people of Western Tianzhu have no reason to be hostile to the Tang Dynasty, and through the performances of a large number of actors, they will deeply believe that the prince of the Western Tianzhu Imperial Court did not clear the pirates, and watched the common people and businessmen being bullied, and the Tang Dynasty not only helped them clear the pirates, but also helped them in many ways.

The common people also pay attention to their own interests, since the West Tianzhu court is so unreliable, so, why should they be loyal to Xi Tianzhu, Datang is better for them, what can they do wrong with supporting Datang.

As for what patriotism, national consciousness does not exist in this era, everyone is working hard for their own interests, and it does not matter who rules them.

A literati in later generations said that the favorite thing of the Chinese people is to be a qualified slave, as long as the ruler gives them the opportunity to be a slave, they will be grateful to Dade, they will be honest slaves, only when they can't be slaves, they will rebel, and find a new slave owner to rule them.

The Chinese people are such a servile nation, and the situation of other ethnic groups is similar, they are also human beings, how much difference can there be? Therefore, as long as Datang treats these people better, it can completely rule the people here, and there is no problem in building a Zhenxi Prefecture.

After many days of adrift on the sea, Ang Lee's main fleet arrived at the port of West Tianzhu and sent one of his subordinates to negotiate and ask to dock at this port.

"Li Shilang, there is good news from Zhenxi Port, the two thousand soldiers and horses of our army have been successfully reinforced, and now they have completely controlled this port, and all the wealth hoarded by pirates has become ours."

A subordinate sent good news.

Li An smiled at the corner of his mouth and said, "Why, the pirates stopped resisting, they gave up." ”

"Then what else is there to say, our army has 2,000 soldiers and horses, with three artillery teams, and thirty cannons? Where will these pirates be opponents, after being defeated several times, they no longer dare to be presumptuous, they all hide in the mountains, and our army is not very strong, so they didn't go after it, just waited for Li Shilang to go and receive it. ”

The subordinate replied excitedly.

Li An's expression was very happy, he paused, and said: "Very good, the vanguard is doing a good job, poor Kou Mo chases, when the main force of our army arrives, we can continue to expand the results of the battle, and eliminate all the pirates hiding in the deep mountains." ”

For these pirates hiding in the mountains, of course Li An will not worry, these are pirates who do bad things, there will be no mass base, and there will be no big forces dare to support them and oppose the Tang Dynasty, in addition, there is a lack of materials in the mountains, these pirates hide in the mountains, they must live a very solid life, for the pirates who rob merchants and live a more comfortable life, the taste of staying in the mountains must be very uncomfortable, as long as the road down the mountain is blocked, these pirates will be forced to die, If you don't die, you have to shed your skin.

"Li Shilang, the port official of West Tianzhu, said that we have too many ships, and their port is too small to meet the requirements of all ships to dock."

An official in charge of the negotiations returned to report.

Li An frowned, looked at the port not far away, and said sharply: "The port is so big, why can't it be stopped, it's just an excuse." ”

"Li Shilang, this official of Xi Tianzhu is too ignorant, do you want to teach him a lesson?"

The subordinate asked angrily.

Li An looked at the environment around the port, pointed to a few imperial fortifications, and said: "These arrow towers are really too ugly, they must be rebuilt, pass on the official's order, let the steam cannon ship immediately open fire, and collapse these arrow towers."

"Yes, Li Shilang."

The subordinates waited for this sentence and immediately conveyed the order.

"Boom, boom, boom......"

With a fierce artillery bombardment, several important arrow towers used by West Tianzhu to defend the port were completely destroyed by the Tang fleet, and the soldiers in the arrow tower were dead and wounded, but because there were not many people on duty in the arrow tower, the casualties were not very large, and the total number of dead was only a few people, and there were more than a dozen wounded.

The arrow towers in several important positions were destroyed by the Tang fleet in an instant, which frightened the Xitianzhu officials in charge of port security.

From the destruction of these arrow towers, it is enough to see the great strength of the Tang Empire, if they continue to refuse the docking of the Tang fleet, then the entire port may be easily captured by the Tang fleet, once such a thing happens, this official has no way to explain to their king.

But why did he refuse the entry of the Tang fleet? Naturally, because the scale of the Datang fleet is too large, if all of them enter the port, it will indeed add a lot of supply pressure to the port, in addition, Datang's fleet is a military fleet, there are so many soldiers in the ship, once they land on the shore, what if they can't leave, he can't afford this risk.

But at the moment, he seems to have no choice, because the Datang fleet has already become angry, and he is so tough as soon as he makes a move, if he continues to refuse the Datang fleet to enter the port, the consequence will be to lose the entire harbor.
