Chapter 1040: Stepping on Fusang

For the people on the scene, the existing fleet is already quite shocking, but for Li Xiang, the existing fleet is just a temporary training fleet, because the system has not yet unlocked the top sail warships, if you follow the classification standards of the 1817 Navy ships, most of the ones unlocked now are after some fourth-class warships, as for the huge first, second and third level warships, they are still in gray in the system.

Take the twenty-five capital ships in the fleet, all of them are fourth-class warships, the number of guns is between forty-five and sixty, the displacement is about 1,000 tons, and there are only two decks, and the number of people is only more than 400.

If it is placed more than a thousand years later, such a warship can only serve as a guard around the entire fleet, and if it really attacks, I am afraid it will not be in front, but in the Tang Goguryeo Naval Division, this is already an absolute flagship.

"Please give the order to set sail."

Although the people on the boat did not look down on Li Ke, the king of Wu, after all, this was Li Shimin's son, and he was also the commander of this Eastern Crusade, so from a procedural point of view, he had to be asked to announce this article, and Li Xiang was already on the platform on the shore.

"Datang Water Master, step on Fusang."

According to some of the original rules, Wu Wang Li Ge still had to say some words on Li Shimin's holy decree, but at this moment he was so excited that he was about to speak, so after pulling out his sword, he pointed directly at the east and said loudly.

"Stepping on Fuso."

"Stepping on the Fuso ......"

No one thought that this relatively weak looking prince would be able to say such a thing, which can be regarded as changing many people's perception of him, but our commander is still bloody.

Qin Qiong and Cheng Yanjin glanced at each other, and at this moment the two of them came up with glasses on, although Li Xiang didn't say it explicitly when they left, the deputy generals below already knew that before they landed on land, all the command was in Ding Tu's hands.

Although you people are in a relatively high position, but you are not familiar with naval warfare at all, if you rashly take over the command, let alone what the soldiers below think, the most important thing is the fleet that has been built with a huge amount of money, and it is very likely that you will not be able to exert your own strength at that time.

Of course, Li Xiang will definitely not feel that his fleet will suffer, now the most powerful ships in Fusang are at most ten or twenty meters long, and there are not many long-range weapons on them, and they still rely on the two ships to jump after getting closer, and they are far from being on the same level as us.

The reason why Li Xiang asked Ding Tu to be cautious is purely because this is the first battle of the Tang Dynasty Naval Division, we have already achieved countless victories on land, it doesn't matter if there is more or less, but the naval division warships must build confidence, only if our soldiers and generals have the confidence to win, just like our army, then when they conquer the whole world in the future, they can bring back one victory after another.

The reason why the navy of the British Empire was able to become the world's first navy was because they had a belief in victory in their hearts, no matter how many countries' navies provoked them, even when they were at an extreme disadvantage, they could still turn decay into magic, and now the land army of the Tang Dynasty has such a state, and then these navies will follow.

"I'm really hot-eyed to watch, if I knew this was the case, even if I ran up secretly, I had to see how the first battle of this naval battle was fought."

Su Dingfang said with some hot eyes, to be honest, this guy is really a little unable to sit still now, he came from Chang'an all the way, who knows that he still serves as a guard for Li Xiang, it turns out that he likes this errand very much, but if it is like this in the future, then I am afraid he will start complaining, who doesn't want to make meritorious contributions on the battlefield?

"Don't be hot, when they come back, we have to start the second attack, otherwise what are we going to do with Nanzhao? Isn't it just to get an outlet to the sea in the south? As long as our naval warships can gain combat experience, they can plant our Datang military flag anywhere in the future. ”

Li Xiang looked at the Tang military flag fluttering in the wind on the port in the distance, and his heart was very comfortable, this place originally belonged to the land of Goguryeo, if it wasn't for his own crossing, it would take at least a few decades to be able to defeat here, but after defeating, he did not send troops to completely occupy this place, Tang Gaozong Li Zhi only set up this management body here, and it was taken back by the local people decades later.

But we're not like this, Li Xiang has always eaten and not vomited, just like a pixiu, since this place has been occupied by us, then don't think about being able to take it back, if you guys take it back, then what are we going to do so hard?

"Your Highness, Manager Qian's twist and turn has arrived."

Talking about the affairs of Nanzhao, Zhang Jiuli had already taken out a letter from his arms, this letter was written by Qian Ping, it is said that Qian Ping is just a eunuch, and he is not qualified to write a letter at all, but it is just a good word.

Su Dingfang also leaned his head to take a look, this is also the time that the two of them have been together under Li Xiang's hands for a long time, if it is in another prince's place, then your action is a bit excessive, people are willing to let you see you to see, how can you take the initiative to stretch out your head?

"Let's take a look at it, King Nanzhao really didn't make a mistake, this guy did exactly what we said, Changsun Chong is also a talent, at most it will take half a year to a year, it is estimated that the war here has just ended, and Nanzhao can become the rear of our southward advance."

Li Xiang saw that Su Dingfang also cared about Nanzhao's affairs, so he directly handed him the fold, anyway, there was nothing unseemly, if there was, Qian Ping would not be able to let people send the fold with such fanfare, then he would definitely write some more private letters, and Zhang Jiuli would not take it out under such circumstances.

The two of them, a eunuch and a guilty person, can't go too far in the court, and the role in the future is Li Xiang's personal staff, no matter how much credit they make, I'm afraid there is no way to go to the forefront, so Li Xiang is also relieved to hand over some bad things to them, and forgive the two of them and dare not be half blind.

"That guy is a soft bone, let's ......"

When Su Dingfang said this, she suddenly saw Princess Yongning coming over in the distance, and swallowed the words behind her.
