Chapter 765: The First Problem of Lingnan Development
It's a blast, it's a blast!
The Dongying Water Division has been swept away, and it is estimated that the small country and widows have gathered more than 40 warships to gather the strength of the country, and there is no longer any obstruction to go, and it is completely possible to show off the bombardment.
At this time, the entire ocean was full of fire, but the screams had slowly disappeared, and the ironclad battleship suddenly accelerated and galloped, directly rushing through the sea battlefield filled with smoke and fire.
Stay and save people?
What doesn't exist, you're dead.
From here to Dongying Island, the distance is only thirty or forty nautical miles at most, and the speed of an ironclad ship is really nothing, and the coastline has been seen after only half an hour.
All the princes on the ship, together with Emperor Li Shimin, and all the important people gathered in the captain's room, staring at Han Yue with excitement on their faces, and constantly pointing out a large map with their hands.
"Here, here, here, and here, there are a total of thirteen seaports in Dongying, of which seven belong to the royal family, and the remaining six are the mouths of the people to go to sea, but both the royal family and the people have very backward ports!"
Han Yue said this and slowly stopped, his tone had an unprecedented ferocity, and said loudly: "Jing'er speed up the boat, use the highest speed, let's spend five days on a tour and blow up all these harbors......"
The suppressed things in the heart of the millennium were completely flat today, although it was a backward era of Japan, but Han Yue only felt that his thoughts were clear.
This fried must be cool.
In the early winter of the thirteenth year of the Tang Dynasty, a warship came from the Tang Dynasty, for five days in a row, the wind was galloping, surrounding Dongying, showing off the martial arts, not saying much, directly firing guns......
All the 13 ports in Dongying were devastating by artillery fire, the royal outlet to the sea was scrapped, and the civil outlet to the sea collapsed.
The entire Toei trembled under the intimidation, and the emperor himself led the people to the coast to pray, but when the Toei Imperial Family led the ministers to arrive, they only saw a powerful ironclad ship far away.
There was a howling sea breeze, and countless pieces of paper floated in the air, and Emperor Toei picked up a piece in amazement and looked at it, only to find a line of blood-red handwriting written on the paper:
"The ocean is my ......"
The handwriting of the inscription is a little crooked, and at first glance it is that the calligraphy has not been practiced much, but the Emperor Dongying is full of horror, looking at the inscription only to feel a chill in his heart.
It's just that there are nine words written on the inscription: King Zhao of the Tang Dynasty, Li Yue, Xuan!
Nine words, thirteen seaports.
Emperor Dongying suddenly weakened his knees, and sat down on the ground with a poof. "How can this be, how can this person target Dongying......"
No one could answer, and the ministers watched the ironclad ship away with fear on their faces, and a round of sunset gradually set on the horizon, dragging out the hideous shadow of the ironclad ship on the sea.
……
Fifteen days later, the southern sea area of the Tang Mountains.
The ironclad ship slowly sailed into this room, the speed began to slow down slowly, more than 20 days of sea voyage plus combat, everyone on the ship was already eager to board the land to return, this morning Li Shimin got up early in the morning, led a group of princes to stand on the bow of the ship.
Because Ren Jing had already issued a notice, she would be able to dock this morning.
Sure enough, the shadow of land gradually appeared in the distance, and as the ironclad ship slowly moved forward, it was slowly possible to see the faint trees of the green mountains hurrying.
Li Shimin's eyes burned and looked at the coast, and suddenly let out a sigh of emotion, and said: "The mountains are green, the logs are verdant, the scenery is really beautiful and charming, I can't imagine that Lingnan is like this, it is rumored that Lingnan is a place of suffering, I feel really right now, ahahaha, this place is good, suitable for the elderly......"
Han Yue next to him quietly rolled his eyes, and couldn't help but remind softly: "Father, don't be in a hurry to sigh, and don't say anything about whether to support the elderly or not, we are now facing the first problem that must be solved, if we can't do it, everything is empty talk." ”
Li Shimin was a little curious, couldn't help but turn his head to look over, and said with a smile: "I can hear the word problem from your mouth, this is really something that has not happened for many years, Yue'er told her father, what is it that makes you like this, don't bully me to be old, you just rolled your eyes and frowned, presumably my emotion just now is really out of place." Tell me, what is the problem......"
All the princes next to him laughed kindly, and made fun of Han Yue with Li Shimin, but unfortunately everyone's jokes only lasted for a while and then disappeared, and all of them changed their faces lightly and frowned.
Just because Han Yue slowly said a sentence, which added up to only two words, he said with a solemn face: "Eat!" ”
Dine!
The most inseparable topic throughout the ages!
Li Shimin's pupils shrank significantly, his face was serious and he nodded slowly, and said solemnly: "Eating, it's really a big problem." For thousands of years, there have been countless sages and kings, and what they have done in their lives is actually just two words: eating. If you are full, you don't have to eat, and the people are full when they are full, and my son should really frown, you did raise a really big problem. ”
The princes next to him also nodded slowly, obviously Li Shimin's words resonated in everyone's hearts.
Han Yue glanced at everyone, and exhaled slightly: "It is already difficult to eat in the Central Plains, but after all, the people still have a dynasty to protect them, if you know the current situation in Lingnan, I am afraid that you will feel that the word "eat" is even more of a headache......
Speaking of this, he suddenly pointed to the distant coastline, and said softly: "Lingnan Desert, this is just a corner of the place, the reason why Erchen chose this place is because there are still people here, I have a dismount to give you a look first, and for a long time in the future, we are afraid that we will have to suffer a lot." ”
He said in a somewhat serious tone, in the past few years, everyone has rarely heard him say such a tone, whether it is Li Shimin or all the princes of the country are awe-inspiring, Lao Cheng couldn't help but ask in a low voice, blade: "Your Highness has been talking for a long time, you should always give the truth, how poor is it here, and it makes your natural genius frown?" ”
Han Yue sighed lightly, looked at the approaching land, and whispered: "Lingnan is a vast land and can be called a pearl from heaven, but it is a pity that no one has developed it for thousands of years, so many places are still semi-primitive. Let me tell you this, this is a copy of the original development of Baishan Heishui, but it is twenty times larger than Baishan Heishui......"
"Twenty times? So big? Again, the hearts of the people sank.
Among them, the eldest grandson Wuji has participated in the development of the Northeast from beginning to end, so he has a deeper understanding of the pain of development.
Li Shimin also stared at the distance with burning eyes, suddenly turned his head to look at Han Yue and asked, and said in a deep voice: "Wu'er, tell me, where does this place belong to Lingnan?" You can choose this place from the vast Lingnan to open, and there must be a unique reason for this. ”
Han Yue's suppressed expression finally eased slightly, and he nodded with a smile: "What Father Emperor said is right, there is a reason. ”
As he spoke, he pointed to the coastline that was already very close again, and his tone carried some indescribable emotion, and he said softly: "There are people here, and there is a small city, which has existed in the Spring and Autumn Period, and on my map of the Tang Dynasty, its name is Nanhai." ”
Nanhai, the Nanhai County established by the Qin Dynasty, has been using this name since then, and has never changed for seven or eight hundred years, which shows how lacking a sense of existence this place is.
The Central Plains Dynasty knew about this place and also included it on the national map, but after it was assigned, it was laissez-faire and never supervised for hundreds of years.
The South China Sea, in fact, is the famous prosperous city in later generations, it has an alias, called Yangcheng.
Li Shimin's eyes suddenly jumped a few times, and he said a sentence meaningfully in his mouth, and said lightly: "If I remember correctly, the South China Sea seems to be run by Feng An, although this person has been attached to this dynasty in five years of martial arts, and then has never been to the audience, your grandfather once named him a Duke of Wu Guo for the sake of face......
Saying that, he stretched out his hand and pointed at Lao Cheng and the others, and said lightly: "Like these people, they are all the founding princes of the country, Shangzhu country, the difference is that Cheng Zhijie and others have been rewarded by you for three generations without demoting the title, but Feng Gu's Wu Guogong is hereditary, it is said that this person has more than 30 sons, more than 20 daughters, so many heirs, it seems that he has married a wife, he is in the Lingnan area, I am afraid that he is a soil emperor's style." ”
Han Yue smiled, his smile was so meaningful, he looked at the primeval forests on the coastline in the distance, and chuckled: "Enjoy my Lord of the Tang Dynasty, but he is doing the business of the Emperor of the Earth here, neither offering nor paying taxes, and the debts owed for so many years are a lot." ”
Li Shimin's eyes flashed, and he raised his eyebrows lightly and said, "What are my son's plans?" ”
Han Yue's eyes also flashed, and he said with deep meaning: "It depends on how he behaves!" ”
"What if it's doing well?"
"Yes!"
"What if I don't behave well?"
"Beat!"
The dialogue between the father and son seems simple, but there is a deep exchange in it, and between the questions and answers, the Lingnan strategy has been established.
Not only for Feng Gu, but also for other forces, those who are obedient will use you, and those who are disobedient will beat you.
Next to him, Li Tao came out of the crowd and solemnly reminded him: "However, has Your Highness ever thought that Feng Gu and others have been operating in this place for many years, and we have just arrived here and the trivial matters have not been decided, do we have to shout and kill as soon as we see each other?" ”
Han Yue's eyes were firm, and he said in a deep voice: "I have said, the first problem in the development of Lingnan is the problem of eating for the people, if you want the people to eat enough, you have to let the people listen to the greetings, and how to develop the people's livelihood and develop various industries without listening to the greetings, and the indigenous forces in Lingnan are precisely the roadblocks that prevent the people from listening to the greetings......"
This passage is a bit awkward, and at first glance it sounds like a tongue twister.
But Li Tao still understood, but the British Duke still insisted on his previous ban, and solemnly reminded again: "Your Highness still has to think more, after all, people are the head of the snake." ”
Han Yue laughed, suddenly stretched out his hand and pointed into the distance, and said with deep meaning: "British duke, look, what kind of existence is there on that coast?" ”
Li Tao turned his head in astonishment, and then his face was happy.
