Chapter 848: Li Chengqian's First Battle (Medium)
At this time, if it is in Chang'an, it is early summer, and it is the recitation of "green locust high willow swallowing new cicada." The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info the beginning of the wind. The water and smoke sink under the blue screen window. The sound of chess startled the day. After a light rain, the small lotus turned. The pomegranate blossoms are in full bloom. The jade pot is slender and clears the spring. Qiongzhu is broken but round" is such a warm and comfortable long and short sentence.
But if it is on the southern sea, it is as always, and there is no difference in the heat of the four seasons.
The inside of the cabin is like a steamer, and the bridge is only slightly breathable, and only standing on the deck at the bow of the ship and feeling the oncoming sea breeze can make people feel a little comfortable.
Li Chengqian stood on the bow of the boat, facing the sea breeze, climbed on the railing, and looked at the sea -- this was Xia Hongsheng's favorite posture when he was on the boat. This posture is quite comfortable, and looking at the sea is indeed easy to make people wander out of the world. However, Li Chengqian does not have the leisure and leisure of wandering in the world at this time.
A little nervous, this is the state of Li Chengqian's heart at the moment, and he is still a little excited, a little looking forward to and excited.
To be honest, when I watched Li Xiaogong and Xia Hongsheng go to crusade against the Japanese Kingdom, I was really envious in my heart. As the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty, Li Chengqian is far more eager to make contributions than ordinary courtiers.
The affairs of the Linyi Kingdom were handed over to Xia Hongsheng when he left the Ryukyus and went to the Wa Kingdom. Li Chengqian could see that the matter of Lin Yiguo was actually a very simple and crude method. That is to let them fight among themselves, and whoever is about to lose will help them, so that neither of them can win anyone. When the affairs of the Wa Kingdom are about to happen, they will help the rebels defeat the Fan clan, and then defeat the rebels under the banner that helping the Fan clan avenge the suzerainty should do. As a result, only Datang is left above this territory.
Li Chengqian is not stupid, in fact, he is more shrewd than most people of his age. It's not just that he was born into a royal family, so he was well-informed and well-educated from an early age. What's more, because he has always been good friends with Xia Hongsheng, this time he has followed Xia Hongsheng for so long, bit by bit imperceptibly, this way of thinking about things and the means of doing things, he has learned more like Xia Hongsheng.
Therefore, there were no difficulties in managing the affairs of Lin Yiguo.
This is the last step, if you really have to achieve the goal of occupying Linyi, you have some bottomless hearts.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince! The bank of the Linyi River is just in front, and the time of the two pillars of incense can be reached. A voice suddenly came from behind him: "Please give an order from His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!" ”
Li Chengqian's heart froze, and when he turned around, the momentum on his body suddenly changed. He just looked at the soldier lightly, and then looked at the direction of Lin Yiguo, and quickly sorted out his thoughts in his mind, and found that every step was very clear. So he said lightly: "Order the whole ship to prepare artillery, and the helmsman will adjust the direction and take the city directly." ”
Between the words, there was a kind of majesty and quietness, and there were even some shadows of Li Shimin in it.
Li Chengqian's order was quickly conveyed, and the ironclad ship rode the wind and waves and sailed in the direction of Champong.
Some small fishing boats began to be seen on the sea, and when they saw this huge ironclad boat, they all exclaimed, and rowed the fishing boat back in a hurry.
The coastline appeared in view, Li Chengqian took the binoculars and looked at it, and said, "Cruise around for a while, and then get closer." ”
The soldiers obeyed the order, and the ironclad boats cruised back and forth along the coastline, not far away.
Datang's ironclad ships were already larger than ordinary sea ships, and they were dressed in iron armor, reflecting the luster of metal in the sunlight, like a huge steel beast, which frightened the fishing boats at sea to flee in a hurry.
Li Chengqian held a telescope and looked over the coast from time to time.
After a short time, I saw many people appear on the coast, and through the binoculars, you can see that they are holding weapons in their hands, which should be the troops of Lin Yi Kingdom.
Li Chengqian put down the binoculars and said to the deputy general beside him: "Put the sampan and deliver the letter." ”
The lieutenant nodded, and immediately turned around and ran to make arrangements.
Soon, a small sampan came into view and began to drift towards the shore with the waves near the shore.
There was no one on the sampan, only a letter, which said that the Tang Dynasty, as the suzerain, received the invitation of Fan, the lord of the Linyi country, to come to the rescue, and ordered Mahamanda to be captured independently.
Of course, that's what this epistle means. Needless to say, these people in front of them must be the people of Mahamandaga. Because the location of the ironclad ship is not far from the city. And the city of Cham has been breached by Mahamandaga, so these people will not be Fan Touli's people.
Through the binoculars, I saw from afar that the sampan boat was pulled ashore, and then the contents were taken out and handed over to the people above.
Li Chengqian smiled and ordered: "All the soldiers, you are all ready to fight, let's wait here for a while and see what Mahamandaga's unique reaction is." ”
"Your Royal Highness the Prince, you should go back to the bridge to command!" Wu Qi was sent by Xia Hongsheng to protect Li Chengqian's safety, and said at this moment: "Once the war starts, you are not safe outside!" ”
Li Chengqian shook his head and said, "It's okay, although Gu is the prince, he is also a general in the army." Is there any reason for a general to hide behind a soldier? Lone should live and die with all the soldiers, advance and retreat together! ”
Li Chengqian's words were very inflammatory, and the soldiers around him were excited one by two. Wu stood up and stood forward and said, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is the first soldier, and the last general should follow!" And with this as a shield, he will definitely protect His Royal Highness the Prince! ”
Wu Qi was an extremely outstanding soldier, and his words were resolute and firm at this moment, and he was full of pride.
"Lonely, I don't want you to protect Lonely." Li Chengqian looked at him, glanced at the soldiers again, and said: "Although we only have one ironclad ship, even if there are tens of millions of people in Linyi, how can we be the opponents of our elite Tang Dynasty?" Lone wants you to help Lone destroy Linyi, and don't fall into the name of Datang Wansheng! ”
"Datang Wansheng!" Wu Qi took the lead, and the surrounding soldiers shouted loudly, and their fighting spirit immediately rose.
This slogan is like a magic spell, and every time it is shouted, it always seems to bring endless courage to the Tang Dynasty soldiers to face enemies again and again.
"His Royal Highness the Prince, a warship is coming." One soldier lowered his binoculars and said.
Li Chengqian picked up the binoculars, looked at them, and found that many search warships had gone out to sea and were coming this way.
"That's a lot." Li Chengqian was a little nervous in his heart, but he didn't show it at all. The only thing that was shown was a confident chuckle, and he said: "And it can be opened so soon, it seems that I have been prepared for a long time." It must have been the old ghost who instigated Maha Mandor to ignore the Tang Dynasty and confront the Tang Dynasty. He's doing a great job. (To be continued.) )
