As soon as a storm at sea ended, the bitter roar of Lifei Yuanli was heard on the sea, and they set out from Yangzhou Military Port, 300 large ships loaded with 2,000 soldiers and a large amount of porcelain, all the way across the sea, and arrived near the Strait of Malacca a month and a half later, but they were hit by a storm at sea.

Although the fleet survived the storm, the soldiers on the ship were exhausted, and Li Fei Yuanli was even more miserable, he had just adapted to a little sea voyage, and he was in high spirits, but he did not expect to encounter this storm.

The morning sun was rising on the sea, and two crew members were holding him, looking desperately at the vast sea, "Didn't you say that there is land here?" Where is the land? ”

He had only one thought now, to go ashore, to go ashore and rest for a few days, to recover, and he had never suffered such a sin in his life.

"Land!"

The lookout on the mast suddenly pointed into the distance and shouted, "Look, there is land!" ”

Li Fei Yuanli's eyes were as big as eggs, and his eyeballs were about to bulge out, desperately looking for the land in his dream, and finally, he also saw it, only to see a black line appear on the sea level, he'ha! There was a cry from the ground, his feet jumped, and the boat was so undulating that he did not stand firm for a moment, and fell on the deck on all fours, but in spite of this, he shouted with excitement, and his gong-like voice echoed over the sea, "My dear grandmother! Finally there is land. ”

When the soldiers in the cabin and some of the merchants heard that there was land, they ran out one after another, and cheers resounded across the deck.

A group of merchants surrounded Lifei Yuanli, and one of them introduced him: "This is the entrance to the Strait of Malacca, a long and narrow strait, with the country of Wolftooth to the north, and the country of Sri Buddha to the south, which is the most powerful country in this area. ”

This group of merchants, numbering more than 100 people, were all Great Food, Persian, and Sogdian, and when the fleet was replenished in Canton, they heard that the ship was going to Sindh, and they bribed Li Fei Yuanli and begged to take a ship, and Li Fei Yuanli received the benefit of several thousand yuan at once, and he readily agreed.

Most of these merchants brought silk, porcelain and other goods, generally they will sell them at a high price on the Nanyang island country, and then purchase spices and other goods back to Persian food to sell, making huge profits, so they actually do business twice, Sri Buddha died is a big country in the South Seas, and they generally will not let go of this opportunity.

Hearing that there is a kingdom, Li Fei Yuanli grinned and said, "Are there any beauties?" ”

"Yes! Yes! The woman here is very tasteful, very good, that ass, that **, I guarantee that the general likes it. ”

"Good!" Li Fei Yuanli waved his hand, "Then let's go ashore and choose a few beauties to relieve boredom on the way." ”

Although the army discipline was strict, when he arrived at this place far away from the emperor of Shangao, Li Fei Yuanli's lustful surname was exposed.

After taking the boat for so long, the brothers are all bored, of course, they also have to rest and rest, and have fun, but it is not possible to have fun without women, Li Fei Yuanli is sympathetic to his subordinates, he has done what he wants, and he also gives to others, he has received thousands of bribes, just to give the soldiers to enjoy the taste of island women.

Li Fei Yuanli immediately ordered that two thousand brothers, each with three pieces of money, could go ashore to find women and buy things, and the soldiers immediately cheered, and although some officers felt that it was inappropriate, they did not dare to annoy Li Fei Yuanli, so they had to let the soldiers go ashore, and the old and steady ones stayed on the boat.

Sri Buddha is today's Sumatra, the largest country in the South Seas, many merchants went to the Tang Dynasty for trade, and there were also many Tang people living in this area, all from the Lingnan area.

The land that the Tang army fleet saw was Bangka Island, which was not far from Port Folì, the capital of Sri Buddha's country, which occupied the entire island of Sumatra, thousands of miles from east to west, four thousand miles from north to south, and the capital Port Foli was near today's Palembang City, Indonesia, and it was also the largest port in the South Seas at that time.

The Tang fleet had never been to Port Folì, but these merchants were familiar with the road, and under their guidance, the Tang fleet bypassed Bangka Island and arrived at Port Folì, which was already in the afternoon.

Although Foley Harbor is the largest city in the South Seas, it is only relatively speaking, the port is not big, and it is impossible to stop the three hundred big ships of the Tang Army, fortunately, it is a natural bay, and the big ships have anchored in the bay, and the soldiers took small boats to the port, and only the main ship of Lifei Yuanli docked.

Forlì Harbor is a prosperous seaport city, located in the east-west sea traffic hub, entrepot trade is prosperous, the Tang Dynasty, Tianzhu and Arab merchant ships gather here, the population is more than 100,000, and Buddhism is prosperous.

The arrival of the Tang army's fleet alarmed the people of the entire capital, and thousands of small traders rushed out of the city, carrying all kinds of local products and tropical fruits to sell to the Tang army.

Li Fei Yuanli had also come ashore, he stood on the dock and grinned, Foley Harbor was much better than he imagined, lively and prosperous, and the women were relatively plump, but their skin was dark, which made him a little fly in the ointment.

"General, someone is looking for you!"

A soldier came up with several people, all gorgeously dressed and wearing black leather boots of the Tang Dynasty, which was the sign of a superior person, most of the locals were short in stature and dark-skinned, but among them was a man in white, who looked like a Han man.

They stepped forward to salute Li Fei Yuanli, and the man in white said: "Welcome the Tang Army to the country of Buddha's death!" ”

Speaking very standard Chinese, Li Fei Yuanli was surprised, "Are you from the Tang Dynasty?" ”

The man in white smiled and nodded, "Xiaomin was originally from Quanzhou, his name was Lin You, and he moved here with his family three years ago. ”

He pointed to a man with a strong figure and a serious face behind him, and introduced: "This is Prince Dando, and the next few are the chiefs of the city, who have come to salute the general. ”

"Oh! That's a nice welcome. ”

Li Fei Yuanli didn't want to do any great power diplomacy at all, he just came to find a woman, let the brothers have a good time, and then left, how could he have the heart to deal with the local court, he had a headache, so he turned around and wanted to find a substitute for the dead ghost, but no one saw it, so he had to curse secretly, and said hard: "We are going to Sindh, we encountered a storm on the way, and we were blown here, rest for a day, and leave tomorrow." ”

Lin You, the man in white, translated it for the prince, and the prince's nervous face was suddenly relieved, thinking about it, two thousand troops ashore, any country will be nervous, he showed a smile on his face, and said with his palms: "Datang and we are friendly countries, and we are willing to provide all help." ”

Li Fei Yuanli listened to the translation, suddenly rolled his eyes, and said with a cheeky smile: "I don't know if the prince can provide a few beautiful women to relieve the fatigue of the journey, hehe!" ”

Lin You was stunned, he couldn't believe what he heard, he actually asked for a woman in person, it was a shame for Datang!

He didn't dare to translate this, so he had to say to the prince: "The soldiers of the Tang Army want to appreciate the customs of the Buddha's dead country, see the song and dance performances or something, this general is a little homesick, I hope the prince can provide a few chefs with superb cooking skills, he wants to taste delicious food." ”

The prince laughed, patted his chest and said, "No problem, I'll arrange it!" ”

"What did he say?" Li Fei Yuanli asked with interest.

"The prince said that there was no problem, and he promised to satisfy the general."

They both laughed and hugged each other, and the prince turned away, and Lifei entered the city in high spirits.

Because it is the capital, the city wall is built with burning bricks, it is very short, only one zhang five high, the whole city is equivalent to a medium county town in the Tang Dynasty, most of the people live in the low wooden houses outside the city, tens of thousands of people live in the city, and they are almost all wooden houses with sloping roofs, the houses are one foot from the ground, it seems that it often rains here, the streets are also spacious, several streets are densely covered with private houses on both sides, and there are also brick buildings, that is, Buddhist temples and royal palaces.

The shops on both sides of the street are densely packed, and goods from Datang, Tianzhu, Arabia and other places are sold, and most of the customers are people from other cities in the country, as well as people from the Malay Peninsula, there are also many Arabs and Tang Dynasty merchants, and the currency is mainly Tang currency.

However, the recent large-scale collection of sea ships in the Tang Dynasty has also affected the business here, and the shops are a little light, and the arrival of the Tang soldiers has undoubtedly been greatly welcomed by the merchants.

In addition to the three rewards of the Tang Army, the soldiers of the Tang Army also brought money, coupled with the low prices here, the Tang Army was even more generous, and won the love of the merchants.

The restaurant is a common cultural heritage of mankind, more than a dozen wine houses in the city are already crowded with Tang soldiers, the noise is endless, the seven or eight restaurants in the city are even more prosperous, basically all of them are covered by Tang soldiers, Li Fei Yuanli of course will not go to grab food with the brothers, he just walks around, looks at the city style, and then goes back to the boat to wait for the beauty sent by the prince.

The scenery in the city was boring, and there were many temples, but he did not believe in Buddhism, and felt bored, so when he saw that it was not early, he went back to the ship to drink and eat.

When he returned to the ship, he immediately had a personal soldier to report, the prince sent someone to send three women, waiting in the front cabin, Li Fei Yuanli was overjoyed, and quickly went to the front cabin, but the personal soldier followed him and whispered: "General, it seems that the person sent is not very good!" ”

"Hey! You don't understand, you have to have taste, a woman with taste is the best, and the prince's vision will not be bad. ”

He pushed away the soldiers and rushed into the front cabin with high spirits, but he was stunned as soon as he entered the cabin, it was three women, yes, but fat, black and short, ugly appearance, and even worse was that they were all forty or fifty years old, where was the beautiful girl he imagined.

"General, they have a smell, a smell all over their bodies." The pro-soldier grumbled behind him.

Li Fei Yuanli's full ** was extinguished by a basin of cold water, he was suddenly annoyed and angry, anger shot out of his eyes, and he turned around and scolded: "Damn, dare to tease Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu destroyed your shit country!" ”

In fact, these three women are all famous cooks in the palace, the prince is a good idea, and the translator also wants to promote the normal cultural exchanges between the two countries, but rejected the bad ideas of Li Fei Yuanli, but they met the representatives of the bad ideas in the Tang Army.

It's all the translator's fault!

Li Fei Yuanli angrily rushed out and walked onto the deck, at this time it was already a little hazy at night, suddenly, there was a noise on the dock, and I saw a large group of Tang soldiers carrying a few stretchers back, and everyone's faces were full of anger.

"What happened?" Li Fei Yuanli asked sharply.

One of them came up and reported, "General, some of the brothers have been slashed in the city, and their knives have been snatched away. ”

Li Fei Yuanli was even more furious, "What! Dare to bully me Tang Jun, damn it, order all the brothers to come back, ready to copy the guys and slaughter the city! ”

At this time, an adjutant general stepped forward and persuaded: "General, ask the matter clearly, maybe it is our fault." ”

In fact, Lifei Yuanli is not a reckless person, he can stand alone, in history he has also achieved the high position of the envoy of the North Court, and he is a sharp and enterprising person, he does not like to keep the success, Li Qing'an put him as the governor of Xinde, that is, he hopes that he can continue to expand to Tianzhu, it can be said that he uses people properly, but Lifei Yuanli also has two weaknesses, one is lustful, for him, women first, career second, followed by short-term protection, even if his subordinates make mistakes, he will also put the responsibility on the other party's head.

Although it seemed that the soldiers being cut in front of him aroused his anger, in fact, it was actually the three cooks who made him angry.

He could not hear the advice of his generals, and he could not find a reason to teach the country a lesson, but when the soldiers were cut down, he immediately ordered them to return to the ship.

By this time, the situation was already clear, and three of his soldiers got drunk and molested the concubine of a nobleman, and as a result, he annoyed the officials and secretly ordered his subordinates to attack three Tang soldiers, cut them down, and took away their swords.

Soon, the soldiers who had entered the city returned, and Lifei Yuanli ordered the whole army to wear armor, spears, bows and arrows, and line up on the dock to wait for orders.

Wei Qingping was appointed by Li Qing'an as the chief minister of Sindh, the supreme administrator of Sindh, he also fell ill because of seasickness, and heard that Lifei Yuanli was going to send troops to destroy the country, so frightened that he hurriedly came to persuade him with his sick body.

"General Lifei, this is not a big deal, why should it ruin the friendly friendship between the two countries?"

Wei Qingping persuaded him bitterly, "General, explain to them and compensate a little for the medical expenses." ”

Although Li Fei Yuanli was unruly, the only thing he was afraid of was Li Qing'an, he was afraid that Wei Qingping would pass on this matter to Li Qing'an, so he had to hold back his anger and say: "Okay! I give my husband a face, and I also give them a chance. ”

Li Fei Yuanli slapped the table and shouted: "Go and send a message to Lao Tzu, let the king get out and apologize, hand over all the murderers, and pay another 10,000 yuan and twenty beauties, Lao Tzu will forget it this time, otherwise, Lao Tzu will destroy his country." ”

Wei Qingping heard that he was rude and wanted a woman, so he couldn't help frowning and said, "General, do you want to pay attention to the wording!" ”

This is already the biggest concession of Li Fei Yuanli, Wei Qingping even asked him to pay attention to the wording, he couldn't bear it, and said with a tiger face: "I'm a rough person, I can only speak straight, just like that, not a word is allowed to be changed, send it to them." ”

Wei Qingping was a soldier who had just met a soldier, and he couldn't explain it clearly, so he bit his lip and didn't speak again.

After the soldiers finished writing the letter, they went ashore to find a local merchant and asked him to go into the city to deliver the letter.

At this time, the Tang army was ready for war, 1,800 infantry, and 200 cavalry, Li Fei Yuanli's men were all elite cavalry, they were reluctant to part with their horses, but at most they could only bring more than 200 horses, so everyone decided by drawing lots, bringing more than 200 horses, but today they actually formed a cavalry of 200 people.

Despite the fact that most of them were infantry, the Don army was armed with cavalry crossbows, lances and knives, and was well lined up and powerful.

Li Fei Yuanli also put on his armor and went ashore, he rode on a war horse, holding a horizontal sword, followed by five generals, who also rode on war horses.

The sudden change of face of the Tang army also caught the Buddha off guard, and King Supili urgently ordered the city gate to be closed, and urgently convened his subordinates to discuss countermeasures, but they encountered a problem, the nobleman who caused the trouble was the king's uncle Sultanli, and he couldn't hand over Uncle Wang!

At this time, the ministers were divided into two camps, Prince Dando advocated that things should be settled, go out of the city to apologize, give 1,500 taels of gold compensation, and then hand over a few thugs who cut people, as for the 20 beauties proposed by Li Fei Yuanli, Prince Dando did not take it to heart, and it was impossible to agree to everything.

But Uncle Wang Sultanli insisted on teaching the rude Tang army a lesson, it was they who teased their concubines first, and they deserved to be cut, and the Tang army only had 2,000 people, and there were 10,000 troops in his city, so why should he give in to the Tang army.

King Subili was not afraid of the Tang army in front of him, but was afraid that the Tang Dynasty would come to Xingshi to ask for guilt, he thought for a long time, and finally decided to adopt the opinion of Prince Danduo and admit his mistake to the Tang army and sue for peace.

He was the king, of course, he would not apologize, so he asked the prince to negotiate with Tang Jun on his behalf.

The city gate opened, a team of hundreds of people went out of the city, the Buddha died in the country rich in gold, several retinues carried a chest of 1,500 taels of gold, as well as all kinds of seafood and coconut wine, came to reward the Tang army, Prince Dando walked in front, followed by the translator Lin You.

Lin You was a little frightened, he knew that he was afraid that the anger of the Tang Army would be related to his translation, the Tang Army Lord would be a beautiful woman, but he translated it as a cook, of course, he would never admit that it was his responsibility.

Prince Dando stepped forward, clasped his palms together and saluted Li Fei Yuanli: "On behalf of the king of the Buddha Lost Country, I come to apologize, and ask Tang Jun to accept our most pious apology." ”

After Lin You finished translating, he waved his hand, and several entourages carried the box containing gold, opened the box, and suddenly it was yellow, and Prince Danduo glanced at Li Fei Yuanli with some pride, this is 1,500 taels of gold, far more than the 10,000 yuan he wanted.

Li Fei Yuanli's face was indifferent, he didn't even look at the gold, there were two thousand soldiers behind him, if he bent his waist for a thousand taels of gold, would he still have prestige in the army in the future?

Seeing that the other party was not moved by the gold, Prince Dando couldn't help but be a little embarrassed, and he glanced back, and his entourage brought up a large amount of seafood and coconut wine, and finally brought up three thugs.

Danduo bowed down and said: "These are the three murderers, now they are handed over to Tang Jun for disposal, and the other seafood and wine are a little bit of our heart, reward Tang Jun, please accept it!" ”

Li Fei Yuanli's eyes were fixed on the three murderers, he had already asked the injured brothers, they were attacked by more than 20 people, it was a short and fat middle-aged man who ordered to hurt people, it seemed to be a nobleman, there was a black birthmark under his right eye, I heard the locals say, this person was the king's uncle, and the three people in front of him, all thin and small, wearing the same style of short black clothes, knew at a glance that they were thugs, and they were convicted?

Li Fei Yuanli sneered for a while, and pointed at the three of them with a knife, "You also underestimate Tang Jun, just with these three ghosts, who can they hurt?" Let me tell you, I don't accept your apology, I don't want a thug, I can also do without a woman, hand over the culprit Uncle Wang to me, and I will give up, otherwise, I will set foot in your shit country! ”
