Chapter 1038: Flintlock Pistol
After everyone met, Li Xiang found that Ding Tu and these people were really caring, because he knew that Yongning would come with Li Xiang, so three small tents were specially placed behind Li Xiang's tent, which was where Yongning and them lived, not very far from Li Xiang's big tent, and the surroundings were all isolated, after all, the barracks were all men.
"This team hasn't blinded you yet, I saw it just now, and it's doing well."
When entering the tent, although it was only a few words, Ding Tu was so happy that he couldn't suppress his excitement, although the imperial court had also issued a few holy decrees and awards before, but except for empty praise, there was no substantive thing, they no longer had any hope for the imperial court, and the reason why they were able to train the team like this was to live up to Li Xiang's favor.
Looking at this scene in front of him, King Wu also had mixed feelings in his heart, once upon a time, there were many troops who trusted themselves so much, but after they were brought to the battlefield of Xue Yantuo, even a tenth of them did not come back alive, now listening to the words of those family members, there is nothing else but scolding themselves, after all, it was he who led them to destruction, if Li Xiang hadn't rushed over at that time, maybe his life would have been thrown on the grassland in the north.
"You can be regarded as coming, these boys don't take us seriously, no matter what we ask, none of these boys can listen, we have been here for more than half a month, and we haven't even seen how they fight."
After arriving in the tent, Cheng Yanjin spoke more casually, Qin Shubao and Li Xiang were also old acquaintances, when they were on the Tuyuhun battlefield, the relationship between the two was quite good, otherwise they would not be able to send Qin Huaiyu to Li Xiang's account, although Qin Shubao didn't say a word at the moment, but he was also unhappy when he looked at the expression on his face.
Both of them are old men who followed Li Shimin to fight the country, more than half of the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty army have passed through their subordinates, and no one has not listened to the orders issued in the army, and now after they have arrived at the Goguryeo Water Division, no one has listened to what the two have said, which really makes the two of them feel a little uncomfortable.
"There are some preparations for the operation of the naval division, and it does not mean that the drill can be carried out at any time, it is getting late today, and tomorrow morning, the naval division warship will go to sea for a drill."
Li Xiang did not criticize his subordinates in front of these people, because these people are doing the right thing, the naval warship is different from the army on land, if you want to practice in real combat, of course, you can start it at any time, but Li Xiang is testing whether they can do things this time, it is obvious that the current Li Xiang is very satisfied, so now he has begun to protect his shortcomings.
"The last general commands."
Ding Tu and the three lieutenant generals knelt down at the same time, and then got up and strode out, many people couldn't sleep this night, it is impossible to just practice how to sail tomorrow, His Highness has already given orders, then tomorrow must be a live-fire drill, so all kinds of preparations tonight must be completed, it cost His Highness so much money, and recruited so many capable people from all over the country, if it is lost to His Highness tomorrow, then Ding Tu directly plunged into the sea to feed the fish.
"You should be tired from the long journey, you better rest first, and tomorrow we will go to sea together to watch the sailor drill."
King Wu felt that he was redundant here, so after seeing a few sailor generals go out, King Wu was also ready to return to his tent, and he was not in a hurry for anything.
"The third uncle walks slowly, and the little nephew still has something to say."
When Li Xiang didn't come, it was to test the generals of the navy, and now they have all come, and it will cost an extra day to delay here, so Li Xiang is ready to let the sailor warship prepare a little after the drill is completed tomorrow, and then set off directly for Fusang.
The battle plan for attacking Fusang is there, and they have also practiced it in other places, the so-called raising troops for a thousand days and using soldiers for a while, spending money like water in peacetime, and now that the time is to use you, can't you people pull it out and fight?
"Leaving the day after tomorrow?"
When Li Xiang finished saying his proposition, not only King Wu was dumbfounded, including Cheng Yanjin and Qin Shubao, they didn't expect Li Xiang to do things so quickly, they had long heard that Li Xiang on the battlefield was resolute, and they didn't cooperate with Li Xiang, but you just came here for a day and let the sailor warship fight, this is also a bit too tight, right?
"The whole army knows what their goal is, if we don't make a move now, this news is likely to reach Fusang, and the news from the sea will also spread quickly, and there may be Fusang's fine work on the side of Chang'an City, so we can't use common sense to fight, they are prepared, we will be in trouble, even you didn't think that we would set off the day after tomorrow, how can the Fusang people think about it?"
Li Xiang said with a smile, in the 21st century, he knew that what these Fusang people were best at was sneak attacks, so in the Tang Dynasty, you also had to taste the bitterness of sneak attacks.
After listening to Li Xiang's words, the three of them pondered carefully, Li Xiang's idea is indeed possible, if it is used properly, when carrying out a sneak attack, we have been able to achieve brilliant results, Fusang's territory is not very large, even if we only kill a part of them, then we can also win early.
Earlier, when Li Xiang said that when he solved Fusang in two to three months, many people still thought that Li Xiang was talking big, but after seeing Li Xiang's speed today, everyone knew that this was not talking big at all, but people had already made up their minds, you watched Li Xiang walking slowly on the road, but in the past ten days, the sailors were not idle, and they should be making the final preparations for war.
"Third uncle, what do you think?"
King Wu, as the commander of the whole army who marched into Fusang, of course he has the final decision, seeing that these three people are silent, Li Xiang can't wait here, the two of them are deputy generals, so people can be silent, but you, the main general, can't.
"I saw that your team is carrying another small kind of artillery, do you need to practice it in a few days?"
Wu Wang Li Ke suddenly thought of this matter, that thing should be very useful to fight, if you don't bring it, wouldn't it be a little blind?
