Chapter 924: Prepare for war and send troops to the country!
Li Yanran nodded, and now she can only fool her father with three truths and seven falsehoods.
The first emperor of the ages, although this name is a knife that harms people, it is also a stimulant that urges people to move forward.
He believed that his father must be ambitious, otherwise Datang would not have been able to open up so many territories.
The reason why he was later run by his wife was that his ears were soft, and secondly, because his body was really difficult to support.
Otherwise, who would want to leave power in the hands of others.
And at the beginning, the father supported his mother to start a war with the eldest grandson Wuji, which also proved that the other party's scheming was definitely not inferior to the first emperor's ruthlessness.
That is, because his mother's light is too bright and too special, so she covers up the brilliance that belongs to her father.
Otherwise, he may also be praised by others and become a figure on a par with his grandfather.
"The First Emperor of the Ages? Little girl, you're going to push me into the fire pit! ”
Li Zhi was stunned, he was indeed a little moved.
But those who claim to be the first emperor of the ages can have a good end.
As for Qin Shi Huang, who unified the six countries, there was Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty who blitzed the Xiongnu, and the most recent was Emperor Yang, the tyrant of the Sui Dynasty.
But this reputation really made him yearn for it, after all, this is a history book that can leave a name.
"How can you call it a fire pit, father, anyone who wants to fight for these titles is a strong country and a strong soldier.
If the father can really compete for this emperor through the ages, it will prove that the Tang Dynasty is rich and strong, and has the ability to support you in doing this.
This is something that should be happy, you think too much! ”
Li Yanran smiled, she knew her father's concerns.
If Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty hadn't been reckless and insisted on building a canal and expeditioning to Goguryeo, perhaps the Sui Dynasty would not have been so easily destroyed.
Dad is afraid of repeating the mistakes of the past and trying to drain Datang's national strength.
But in her opinion, this thing is a good and harmless move, as long as it can really sail to the Americas, then Datang can open up colonies.
Even if there is really a subsequent Anshi Rebellion, Datang can have a place to breathe.
"That's it, but I really want to see if this Emperor of the Ages is a curse.
Now that the four seas have surrendered, Datang is at its peak, so it will fulfill your will and take the Wa Kingdom.
As for whether there is a so-called good place in the east of the Wa Kingdom, then we can only find out. ”
Li Zhi also laughed, I have to say that this Li Yanran really dares to say it, and will say it.
He's happy, he's really happy.
After all, what he said was the truth, and only when the country is strong can it be qualified to strive for such a title.
Then fortunately, let Li Yanran go crazy, but it is just a Japanese country, and it will be destroyed if it is destroyed.
"Father, this is a promise?"
Li Yanran was stunned for a moment, and also smiled at Li Zhi.
"But I can call the test when I take the Wa Kingdom, and as for the matter of exploring the unknown land to the east, I can only start from the people.
Otherwise, once the country is passed, I am afraid that how many people will be buried in the belly of the fish, and there will be no place to bury them. ”
Li Zhi touched Li Yanran's little head, there are some things that he can do by himself, and some things that he can't do by himself.
If you want to forge ahead in the name of the country, you will inevitably let a large number of people participate, so these can only be done by Li Yanran herself.
"Rest assured, father, these are not things that the country should do, and my daughter knows."
Li Yanran nodded, and directly reassured the other party, she naturally would not be stupid enough to let her father open the sea to explore the New World.
Naturally, I will find a way to solve these problems.
"Well, let's go down if there's nothing to do."
"Whoa!"
Li Yanran will also leave in a hurry after saluting.
Out of the Luoyang Palace, Li Yanran immediately found Li Siwen and asked him to go to his shipyard to seize the time to develop a sea ship that could cross the Pacific Ocean.
No matter the cost, no matter the material, the trip to the Americas must be completed no matter what.
After consulting with the ministers, Li Zhi also asked Ren Yaxiang to draft a letter of state, announcing his acceptance of the submission of the Wa State.
At the same time, he also agreed to send students to Datang to study, and also gave a valuable reward.
The envoy of the Tang Dynasty returned with a full load, and returned to the Wa Kingdom across the ocean with the letter of entitlement and a large reward from the Tang Dynasty.
The Emperor of the Wa Kingdom was also relieved to receive the letter of state and reward from the Tang Dynasty.
As long as Datang can recognize his status as a vassal country, they will not punish their previous mistakes.
Moreover, since Datang agreed to send students to study by himself, the Wa State immediately organized a second batch of Tang ships to send Tang ships to Datang.
It's just that this time there are no rare treasures, all of them are shrewd people selected by the Wa Kingdom.
Their task is to learn as much as possible the culture and technology of the Tang Dynasty, and then bring them back to the Wa Kingdom to enhance their strength.
At the same time, the ships of the Japanese kingdom going north to Baekje also arrived in the port of Sibi, and as soon as they got off the ship, they were taken down by Liu Renliang's men.
The crew was killed, and the more than 200,000 taels of gold on the ship were also sent to Luoyang as a gift for the emperor.
In one year, according to the previous drawings of seagoing ships, all 300 ocean-going cargo ships have been built.
And those warships used in the ocean were also launched one after another, and the number of Tang sailors also skyrocketed, reaching a terrifying 60,000 people.
Coupled with the tens of thousands of marines that Liu Renliang has been training, the soldiers and horses of the Tang Navy Division subordinate to Liu Renliang have exceeded 100,000.
In order to attack the Wa Kingdom from afar, Liu Renliang did not choose to send troops from the Tang Dynasty, but gathered all the warships and supplies to Baekje.
Because the best way to go by sea is from here, all the small fishing boats of the Wa Kingdom can cross through to Baekje.
Not to mention these behemoths of the Tang Dynasty, it is a matter of minutes to go to the Wa Kingdom.
"Your Majesty, Liu Renliang is the governor of the capital, and his side is ready, and he can go to the Japanese kingdom at any time to carry out the act of destruction!"
Du Zhenglun glanced at the emperor and directly told Liu Renliang about the situation.
"Exactly."
Li Zhi nodded, he was finally ready, and taking the Wa Kingdom could be regarded as completing what Li Yanran had in mind.
"Whoa!"
Li Zhi is a quasi-word, Liu Renliang also took more than 500 warships, more than 100 ocean-going warships, more than 300 large cargo ships, more than 1,000 small ships, and escorted 50 thousand-man troop carriers to go out of Baekje to the southernmost part of the Wa Kingdom.
"Your Highness, the troops have been dispatched, and the Metropolitan Governor of Liu Renliang has sent troops!"
Su Qingjie came to Li Yanran's side, his eyes were full of excitement.
As the son of a general, his favorite thing to do is to fight.
Although he is now Li Yanran's guard, he is still concerned about the battlefield.
When he heard that Liu Renliang had sent troops, he immediately came over to report.
"Sent troops? How many warships came out this time? ”
Li Yanran immediately stood up and inquired about Su Qingjie.
"Governor Liu Renliang is the best this time, and the whole army of the Tang Navy Division is dispatched.
In addition, there were 50,000 landing troops carefully trained by him, and more than 2,000 ships slaughtered the Japanese kingdom. ”
Su Qingjie directly told the information he received.
"This Governor Liu Dadu has a good tooth, he is going to beat the Japanese country down in one fell swoop!
I hope there is no wind and waves on this sea, and he can directly kill the Wa Kingdom! ”
Hearing that Liu Renliang was studing, Li Yanran also sneered.
This time, if the fleet can reach the Wa Kingdom, there should be no problem for the 50,000 elite Tang troops to deal with a group of small potatoes.
"My Datang has the protection of God, and it won't take much time for Baekje to reach the Wa Kingdom, and this time it will definitely be able to destroy the Wa Kingdom in one fell swoop."
Su Qingjie glanced at Li Yanran, he believed that Datang, not to mention that he would not encounter wind and waves, even if he really encountered it, he would be safe and sound.
"I hope so!"
Li Yanran nodded, he also hoped that as the other party said, everything would arrive safely in the Wa Kingdom.
As Li Yanran expected, although there were occasional storms along the way, Datang's warships were huge, and they were fighting in groups.
Even if the ship is damaged, it can be rescued as soon as possible.
When Liu Renliang's battleship sailors appeared in the waters outside the Japanese Sea, the fishermen who were fishing along the way were all stupid.
They had never seen such a large ship before, and it was not one or two, and the entire sea was occupied by warships.
For a while, the fishing boats of the Japanese Kingdom also hurriedly turned around and ran, and Liu Renliang was also relieved when he saw the fishing boats.
I have finally arrived in the Wa Kingdom, and I am ready to bear the wrath of the Tang Dynasty.
Under the command of Liu Renliang, the Tang Navy Division also directly killed the northernmost part of the Wa Kingdom.
In the face of the absolute strength of the Tang Naval Division, the Japanese soldiers in the south were defeated in an instant, and the port was obtained, and Liu Renliang's naval division also began to land immediately.
Tens of thousands of Tang troops also directly boarded the mainland of the Wa Kingdom, arranged defenses, expanded strategic depth, and at the same time, the supplies on the ships were also unloaded one after another.
Liu Renliang got off the warship, looked at the broken scene in front of him, and couldn't help frowning.
This kind of place is really desolate, I really don't know what drives them to do this.
I really don't know what to say, and I'm asking for my own hardship.
After Liu Renliang took this place, Ma Shan sent soldiers to begin to expand the results in all directions.
Soon, the news of the invasion of the Tang Dynasty spread throughout the Wa Kingdom, and the Emperor of the Wa Kingdom was also shocked when he heard it.
He also didn't know, didn't Datang have already accepted his surrender before, why did he still come over and send troops to him.
Could it be that he offended Datang? Or whatever.
Thinking about it, doing it, the emperor of the Wa Kingdom gathered soldiers and horses to prepare for the battle, and at the same time sent envoys to the south, wanting to see what this Tang Dynasty wanted to do.
Liu Ren's track traveled very fast, and he immediately took down several cities around the port.
The envoys of the Wa Kingdom came quickly and came directly to the sphere of influence of the Tang Army.
Waving the white flag, the envoy also came to Liu Renliang all the way unimpeded.
"I am here on behalf of the emperor of my kingdom, and I ask the general to give us an explanation why the lord will bring troops to kill us!"
Jeff Muramasa, the envoy of the Japanese State, looked at Liu Renliang in front of him, his eyes full of horror.
"A little slave, dare to call himself the emperor?
The whole world is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's minister.
As for why I, Datang, led my troops here, I don't need to tell you so much.
Now all you can do is surrender, my Tang Tianwei is mighty, and I will definitely not make more killings. ”
Looking at the envoys of the Japanese State kneeling in front of him, Liu Renliang's face was full of disdain.
A little servant of the country, dare to say what the emperor?
It's really arrogant.
"General, do you really think that my country is so weak?
I have countless people and hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses, so I'm afraid it's not so easy for you to take down my country, right?
I also ask the general to lead the army back immediately, and our country is willing to offer 100,000 taels of gold as the loss of the Tang Dynasty's troops. ”
Jeff Muramasa kowtowed directly, not daring to look at Liu Renliang's eyes.
The general's eyes seemed to have knives, and the places he glanced at seemed to be sharp on his back, which really frightened him.
Could this be the general of God's kingdom? It's just too powerful, it's terrifying.
"Then come on, don't say hundreds of thousands of you soldiers and horses, even millions of generals are not afraid.
Tell you the Wa King, wherever my Tang Heavenly Army goes, there is no way to resist.
If they really want to resist, then let's see whose sword soldiers are better and whose soldiers are more heroic! ”
