Li Hao stood up, looked at all the Wencheng generals in the hall, and said in a solemn tone.

"The people are angry, and the king can't feel it. But the people have been resentful for a long time, and it is understandable that the anger has caused them to lose their minds. But as a military attache of Suzhou Wenchen and the people of Qingtian, how can you be infected by their emotions and deal with this matter with anger?"

General Huang was stunned when he heard this, as the first person to speak his mouth, he could clearly feel that Li Hao's words were for him.

"Lord Wang, please forgive the last general, what did you mean by this sentence just now?"

Li Hao put his hands behind his back, stared into his eyes and asked, "General Huang, this king, and ask you, how many years have you been in the army, and how many young battles have you fought with the Japanese during this time?" ”

"The last general joined the army at the age of sixteen, and it has been more than 40 years now! Since the end of the general came to Suzhou, he fought with the Japanese invaders. It's been 12 years! ”

"Twelve years, twelve years." Li Hao sighed slightly: "General Huang, how many twelve years have you been alive?" In the past 12 years, the Tang Heavenly Army has fought bloody battles against the Japanese Invaders, losing and winning. But whether you kill the pirates, or they rob their money and escape, it is the people who suffer, right? ”

General Huang was stunned for a moment, and lowered his head with some guilt.

The Japanese were cruel and their own land was barren, and they could not feed so many people, so they went to the sea to plunder and make a living. Like locusts crossing the border, and like weeds spreading, they are inexhaustible and killed.

Every time they come across the sea, the people of the Tang Dynasty will experience a disaster, and for more than ten years, the people in Suzhou have reached tens of thousands of people in the hands of the Japanese invaders!

"General Huang, my lords and generals, the Tang Heavenly Army is mighty, and this king is deeply touched. The bravery of you in your battle against the Japanese is also seen by this king. But haven't you ever thought that I am a big country in the Tang Dynasty. There are many capable people like the vast stars, and there are millions of heroes under his command, which is twice as many as the Japanese invaders. But why is it embarrassing to be embarrassed by these beam-jumping clowns every time? ”

General Huang clenched his fists: "The Japanese are treacherous and cunning, they attack the weak points of our defenses every time, and they come across the sea, which is difficult to guard against, and every time they succeed, they escape from the sea. The Datang sea area is vast, and the vast sea water is nowhere to be found. ”

"General Huang Gaojian!" Li Hao immediately echoed General Huang's statement: "The Central Plains soldiers have been in trouble for many years, the Sui Emperor of the former dynasty was greedy for pleasure, and the national strength was weakening day by day. ”

"But until today, the army of my hall is strong enough to sweep away the four fields, but the water division is not as good as the country of projectiles. Datang has a vast sea area, but it is not allowed to use it, so it will be harassed by the Dongying Wokou every time! If we want to completely eradicate the plague, defense alone is not enough, we must take the initiative. ”

"Everyone, please think about it, if we have an invincible fleet at sea, and when these Japanese invaders cross the sea, we will defeat them on the sea, what will they use to invade the Central Plains and kill the people? Moreover, if we have 100,000 sailors, we can cross the sea and destroy Dongying, and the strong soldiers will look at the tiger, how dare the Dongying Wokou touch the tiger's whiskers? ”

Li Hao's words, like an enlightenment, shocked General Huang.

In the past 12 years, he has always wanted to strengthen the strength of the garrisons in Suzhou County, and give them a severe blow when the Japanese invade the border, but he never thought of defeating the Japanese at sea, and even crossed the sea to counterattack Dongying.

Such a majestic and magnificent expectation is not something that he, an ordinary general, can hope for.

But now it's different, Li Hao is here!

As the monarch of the Li Kingdom, he is also the owner of the first village in the world, Lijiazhuang. The financial resources in his hands are millions, and the wealth is comparable to that of the country. If he has the heart to help, Suzhou is adjacent to the sea, and it will be able to show that he has always been a majestic sailor!

"I understand, on behalf of Suzhou, the prince will ask for the prince's assistance to establish an invincible sailor and expedition to the east!"

General Huang was so excited that he knelt down with a pop.

The civil officials present were thoughtful, and they were not as easy to fool as General Huang, and they had already heard the clues from Li Hao's words.

Although Li Hao's words are beautiful, he must establish an invincible sailor to resist the Japanese invaders.

But he was the only one present who could come up with this idea.

But if the sailor in Suzhou is established like this, won't it be the same as his surname Li Hao?

Once the sailor is established, even if Li Hao leaves Suzhou, his prestige will remain here for a long time and will never be pulled out again. This is not a good thing for them as local officials.

"Lord Wang! The matter of establishing a water division is a big matter, Suzhou has suffered from Japanese troubles for many months, and the people are not happy. Nowadays, there is a shortage of manpower, and it is not possible to build on a large scale. Let's take a long-term view of this matter in the future! Let's discuss how to deal with the Japanese captives today! ”

"Yes, Lord Wang, the people in Suzhou are still looking forward to it, waiting for the fate of these widows, we can't ignore the wishes of the people."

Li Hao smiled slightly: "The number of pirates has reached 7,000, if you kill them all, you can indeed breathe a bad breath for the people who died in vain." But in the end, people cannot be resurrected after death, and this will not help Suzhou in any way. I thought about it for a long time, and I had already come up with a way to get the best of both worlds. ”

"What's the solution?"

"The crimes of the Japanese who killed my people are too numerous to be punished. Please find out the leaders of the Japanese and behead them on the street tomorrow at noon, so that the people will complain! ”

"Kill only the leader?" The officials exclaimed.

Seven thousand and five captives, but committed suicide of the dozens of leaders, compared to the Tang people they killed, it can be said that ten thousand deaths are not enough to atone. How can the people agree?

"That'...... What about the others? A civilian officer asked cautiously.

Li Hao laughed: "Didn't you just say that the lives in Suzhou are devastated, and it is not suitable to build a large number of buildings?" Since there is a shortage of manpower, let's use all those Japanese prisoners as coolies to build our fleet shipyard! He told them that the death penalty could be forgiven, but the living sin could not be escaped, and that they should make up for their sins by labor. Compared to them, they will be grateful to Dade! ”

"This ......"

Li Hao's handling method exceeded everyone's expectations, and the civil officials looked at each other and didn't know how to deal with it.

"Lord Wang, I'm afraid it's not appropriate to do this! Will the people agree? ”

General Huang asked with some hesitation.

Li Hao said confidently: "Don't worry! These gangs of pirates are burning and looting everywhere, and killing them directly, it's too cheap for these brutes! And not many of the houses of the people were burned down for them? Within this month, let these Japanese captives serve as coolies to help the people rebuild their homes! Benefiting themselves, compared to the people, they are also happy to see these beasts as slaves and slaves! ”

"That's right! The cost of building a shipyard is huge, and Suzhou County may not be able to afford it. We can buy supplies from other states and counties and send them to fill the gap, and it will take about a month! In the meantime, let these gangsters make amends for their sins! ”

Li Ziyin also stood up and said with a smile. In his heart, he sighed even more that Li Hao's thoughts were deep, and he even took into account the matter of transporting materials with his face.

If the manpower is insufficient, it will be filled with Japanese prisoners, and it will take time for the materials to be transported.
