"How many enemy countries do you have to fight along the way?

What's more, Tianzhu is not a small country, plus the garrisons in various ports along the way, how can it be done without an army of 100,000? If an expedition of 100,000 troops were to cross the sea with 100,000 troops, how many warships and manpower would be needed to meet its needs? ”

Yang Guozhong said in horror.

"Yang Gong, do you know Wang Xuance?"

Yang Feng said with a smile.

"Zhenguan twenty-one years, the right to lead the governor Shi Wang Xuance as the envoy to Tianzhu, coincided with the traitorous ministers of his country usurped the throne, with troops to attack my Tang mission, Wang Xuance and the deputy envoy were imprisoned, after the two of them escaped from prison and fled, to the Tubo state to borrow its 7,000 soldiers, and more than 1,000 Tubo army, defeated the Tianzhu army in a battle, not only rescued all the captured colleagues, but also beheaded the head of the puppet king dedicated to Emperor Taizong, so weak country Yang Gong thought how much I Tang elite?"

He went on to say.

"Huh?"

Yang Guozhong shut up.

"As for the ...... of the nations along the way"

Yang Feng smiled.

"Yang Gong can summon the maritime merchants who travel back and forth to Haiyi Road all the year round to inquire about the situation of these Nanyang states.

Chen is not a joke, 10,000 Datang elites who have adapted to the hot environment and ignored the impact of the epidemic have the ability to destroy any country there, if it is just to seize a port, then 1,000 Datang elites can easily complete this task.

Chen's plan was to build five such garrison ports on this line, each with 2,000 garrisons, and 10,000 garrisons needed on the entire line, while the other 10,000 defeated Tianzhu to seize control here, and then transported 20,000 elites here by sea, and these 20,000 elites were recuperated in Tianzhu, adapted to the environment, and hoarded sufficient supplies in Tianzhu. At the same time, relying on inland shipping in this mountain pass to build another city, once the attack began to rely on it, after entering the territory of Tubo, directly let go of the hand to carry out a blood bath, can kill and kill, can not kill must also be captured back to Tianzhu, in short, it is burned to kill all the robbing, even the farmland must be burned livestock can not be taken away must also be killed, to weaken its population to the greatest extent.

Once the Tibetan army counterattacked, it would fight if it could, and if it won the battle, it would go straight to the ground, and if it could not fight, it would retreat.

Take control of the mountain pass and kill it again at any time in the future.

As long as I, the Tang Dynasty, master this line, even if we can't completely destroy Tubo, we can make them lose the ability to attack Longyou from now on, and their population and strength cannot support the battlefield in both directions, and as long as our army keeps attacking and disturbing, Tubo will be like gradually being bled until the blood runs dry and dies! ”

He said viciously.

"It's a long-term solution!"

Yang Guozhong said with emotion.

"Ten years, ten years can ensure that the Tang Dynasty completely gets rid of the hungry wolf on the side of Tubo."

Yang Feng said.

"Ten years, I will wait for you for ten years!"

Li Longji said very domineeringly.

"I wish Your Majesty eight Hong and one Yu, and make the emperor's grace like the sun and the moon be all nations as soon as possible!"

Yang Feng saluted and said.

Then Yang Guozhong and others also followed suit.

"If there's anything else good, let's offer it together!"

Li Longji said somewhat happily.

"This is a clairvoyant mirror, of course, it is impossible to see a thousand miles, if it is on the open ground, you can pull things closer a mile away, such as at present, you can see people's faces clearly within half a mile, this thing is self-made, but the glass used needs to be purchased from the Hu people."

Yang Feng said and took out the telescope.

Li Siye took it and handed it to Li Longji and taught him how to use it.

"This is the minister's sea ship map, this shipper called the treasure ship, can carry ten thousand stones, with a bed crossbow and a repeater crossbow can be used as a warship, the size is huge, towering like a mountain, the speed of the wind can exceed 20 miles, regardless of transporting troops and goods, in the minister's plan, this ship should be the main force of my Tang fleet, at least 100 ships. This is a small bird ship, take its swiftness like a bird, the speed can reach 30 miles, this is a patrol guard of the sentinel ship, this ship is small and cheap, at least 200 should be built, in fact, it is the main combat ship, the countries of the South Seas are weak, it is impossible to have the ability to compete with my Tang Dynasty, the bird ship with bed crossbow and repeater is enough to deal with. This is a sand boat, actually not suitable for navigation, can only be used in the near sea, but this ship is better in the shallow draft, inland river transportation operations are indispensable, can be used for the navigation of the Zhu Yuan River in the direction of Annan, and the cost is not worth mentioning, for the ship material does not have to care too much, and this is a car ship, this ship is not a sea ship, can not sail on the sea, it is a large warship used in inland lake operations, with manpower with sail drive.

The first two are used at sea.

The latter two are used in inland waterways.

These are just the simplest patterns, the real full set of patterns and construction techniques are in the minister's place, and His Majesty can send someone back with the minister to get it. ”

Yang Feng then took out a box and said.

Colliers took it and opened the box, which was a stack of drawings of the Ming Dynasty version, in which the treasure ship was naturally a lucky ship, and the bird ship was naturally green eyebrows, these two ships did not exceed this era too much, whether it was a lucky ship or a bird boat, it was possible to solve it by shipbuilders at this time, and the sea ships of the Tang Dynasty were already very developed, and then there was a full set of his technical information, which was easy to build in the shipbuilding bases in Zhejiang, Fujian and other places.

As for the sand boat, it is also a sand boat.

This kind of small boat is inconspicuous, but very important, this kind of small boat formed during the Tang and Song dynasties, carried almost the vast majority of China's inland and offshore shipping for hundreds of years.

And the car and ship are, of course, the symbol of the Song Dynasty warship.

In the era when there was no artillery, this kind of giant river warship is invincible, in the future after the Indian garrison, it is completely possible to use this kind of warship and sand boat combination to control the Brahmaputra River, and even expand in the direction of the Ganges, at least the Tianzhu people in the cold weapon era can not find a rival to it, bed crossbow, trebuchet and then shoot rod, the giant of the classical era sailed on the Ganges, declaring the majesty of the Tang Dynasty in the eyes of the three people on both sides of the river, and it is also very exciting to think about this meeting.

Similarly, the countless bird ships on the sea escort the treasure ships like mountains, just like the original historical Zheng He's fleet traveled through time and space, rampaging in the South Seas in the eighth century, such a scene is also very exciting.

"You've got enough good stuff."

Li Longji said with a smile.

"It's gone, all that's left is the minister's brave loyalty!"

Yang Feng said shamelessly.

"Okay, you've got a good heart!"

Li Longji said.

However, he still didn't give Yang Feng an official, after all, he still had to take care of An Lushan's feelings, of course, this is just a trivial matter, after the limelight, as long as Yang Feng doesn't do anything again, he will definitely compensate him, after all, Li Longji does feel this guy's fierce loyalty.

"Would you like to preside over the shipbuilding for me?"

He asked very directly.

"Back to Your Majesty, the minister is unwilling!"

Yang Feng also said very directly.

"Why? I won't let you go to other places, but I just set up a special supervision department in the Ministry of Industry, and you will serve as the supervision envoy, although you need to go outside from time to time to inspect, but still stay in Chang'an, isn't it better than you suffering in broken leaves? ”

Li Longji said.

"Back to Your Majesty, the minister is determined to defend the border for the country, although the days of broken leaves are hard, but as long as I think that behind the ministers is my Tang Dynasty, it will not be bitter, and the thousands of brothers of the ministers of the Talas War are buried in the Western Regions, and the three thousand brothers of the ministers and the broken leaves have sworn that they did not take their bones back, did not avenge them, and let their spirits rest in the sky, no one can abandon them and go, the ministers are in the broken leaves, just to be able to have such a day, this is the oath made by the minister to the sky, and please Your Majesty can fulfill it!"

Yang Feng said very sensationally.

Li Longji was silent for a moment, obviously a little moved.

What a good boy this is, he would rather give up the glory and wealth of Chang'an, but also go to the peerless region to defend the border for the country, and unreservedly offered him a bunch of treasure-level things, but he was not dissatisfied at all because he could not be promoted, he was simply a model of loyal ministers.

"The broken leaves are hanging far away, what should I do if there is an accident in the shipbuilding?"

Li Longji said.

"Back to Your Majesty, the minister can come back once every six months."

Yang Feng said.

"It will take half a year for that broken leaf to come back."

Yang Guozhong said.

"Yang Gong, the last general's body is not an ordinary person, as long as the broken leaves are enough to the post stations along Chang'an, there are horses to change every fifty miles, and the ministers can travel two thousand miles a day and night, and they can reach Chang'an in six or seven days at most."

Yang Feng said.

He doesn't care about fatigue, it doesn't matter if he runs on a horse twenty-four hours a day with his physique, how can a well-replenished war horse not be able to carry him for half an hour and run fifty miles, as long as he changes horses and runs along those post stations, and there is no pressure to go back and forth for half a month.

"Okay, I will issue an order to the post stations in various places to prepare horses for you at any time, but you still have to stay in Chang'an for half a year, establish this superintendent, and go to the various shipyards in Jiangnan East Road and Lingnan Road to teach those shipbuilders how to build these ships according to the drawings, as for the ship materials, there should be some available, they originally built the sea ships of Tonghaiyi Road, let them try to build a few first."

Li Longji said.

"Obey."

Yang Feng hurriedly said.

"But the minister also has a matter to ask for, please ask Your Majesty for permission!"

Yang Feng said.

"What?"

Li Longji asked.

"I beg Your Majesty to allow your Majesty to go to prisons in various places, and collect those ordinary prisoners to take to Broken Leaf to serve as coolies, only 3,000 people there are far from enough, but the people of the Tang Dynasty live and work in peace and contentment, and it is difficult to be willing to go to the Desperate Land with the ministers, so the minister thinks that these prisoners can be used as help."

Yang Feng said.

"These are the unruly!"

Li Longji said.

"Your Majesty, rest assured, even the wolf ministers can turn them into sheep!"

Yang Feng said.

"In that case, it is allowed, and those other than the ten evils are allowed to take it!"

Li Longji said.

He doesn't care about those prisoners, it's a good thing that Yang Feng gave him waste utilization, these prisoners are kept in prison, and he has to provide prison food, so that they can go to Broken Leaf and be exiled, anyway, they have nowhere to run, just serve their sentences with hard labor and then release them back.
