Chapter 664: Out to Sea
Compared with the government army and the navy, Li Chengqian believes in his own team more, and the "fangs" and "sea wolves" are adapted from the prince's left guard rate and right guard rate, to paraphrase a modern phrase, that is, the roots are positive and Miao Hong, and they are absolutely their own people. Vertices are updated the fastest
Therefore, Li Chengqian spared no effort to equip these two armies, trying his best to get out all the equipment that the Datang process could handle, arm them with them, and let them become his most reliable strong shield.
'Sea Wolves', Li Chengqian invested a huge amount of money in them, ships and weapons were all up to date, and even he spent a huge price to make things like ballistas to equip 'Sea Wolves'.
So in terms of equipment, the 'Sea Wolf' can be proud of all the sailors of the Tang Dynasty, which is one of the reasons why Li Zhen doesn't care about Lu Da, the governor of the sailors.
"Zhen, I've seen His Royal Highness the Prince." In Li Chengqian's camp, Li Zhen took the three squadron leaders behind him to meet the Tang Dynasty Prince, whom he had not seen for several years.
"Okay, if you give Lao Tzu this set again, believe it or not, I will transfer you back to Chang'an, and let you salute and play every day!" After two years, Li Chengqian was very happy to see his playmate again, and after a few teases, he continued Li Zhen to introduce him to the manpower that has increased over the years.
After all the introductions were finished, Li Chengqian took a serious look at Li Zhen, and said with a smile: "Not bad, it's a lot stronger, and it's a lot darker, you kid hasn't been lazy during this time!" ”
"Don't mention being lazy, being chased by the old Dugu Sea Dragon King every day is like Cui Ming's training, and if you can sleep for three hours a day, you will be grateful to Sanqing Daozun." After a few words of familiarity, Li Zhen slowly regained some of the feelings he had when he was in Chang'an City, and he slowly relaxed.
Li Chengqian dragged Li Zhen to sit on the small stool on the side, and asked in a consultative tone, "How is it?" Are you still used to staying in the South China Sea? Do you want to be transferred back? Uncle Li Ji is still stationed in Dingxiang City, and he is afraid that there will be a shortage of people around him, so he will ...... it."
"Don't, I'm still staying on the other side of the South China Sea, you send me to the old man, I don't have to be to death by him?" Li Zhen's head shook like a rattle and rejected Li Chengqian's proposal.
Li Ji is generally a wise general, and his requirements for his descendants are naturally different from other generals, Li Zhen has a deep feeling for this, so he doesn't like to go to the old man's errand very much.
"Then you stay in the South China Sea, it is estimated that after a while, you may be transferred north, but it may take several years, you don't have to be too anxious, just know in your heart." Li Chengqian vaguely revealed some gossip to Li Zhen as his capital to brag about it.
"Well, don't worry, our 'sea wolf' is now equipped with equipment, and if you want people, even if you hit the edge of the sky, you are not afraid, as long as you are smart about going north and south." Li Zhen patted his chest and reassured, but soon thought of another question, pulled Li Chengqian and asked, "Gao Ming, why is the water at this Dengzhou wharf so shallow?" Our ship has run aground. ”
Li Chengqian rolled his eyes, looked at Li Zhen and said, "You are still the deputy captain of the 'Sea Wolf', did you even measure the depth of the water before entering the port?" Now you are driving a sharp-bottomed sea boat, not the original flat-bottomed boat, can't you have a snack in case of trouble? ”
Li Chengqian didn't care much about the stranding, because this time happened to be the time of low tide, as long as the tide rose for a while, the boat would naturally float, and then it would be enough to withdraw.
Li Zhen touched the back of his head, laughed a few times, and then asked, "Gao Ming, when are we leaving?" Do you want to wait a few more days? ”
"Lao Tzu has been waiting for you here for a month, and I'm still waiting for a fart, don't wait, leave immediately." Speaking of the question of going to stay, Li Chengqian was a little emotional.
Dengzhou, a place, belongs to the new city, what do you want to be fine, there are still a lot of, so he can't stay for a day now, he just can't wait to leave immediately.
"Okay, I'll go back and arrange it." Seeing that Li Chengqian was anxious, Li Zhen didn't say much else, patted his ass and stood up and walked out, and when he was about to arrive at the door of the tent, he seemed to remember something, and turned around and asked, "Are those 'fanged' people also going with us?" If it is together, I am afraid that there will not be so many war horses on the ship. ”
"I'll take fifty people with me, and the others will let them go back to the station." Li Chengqian pondered for a while, and felt that with the 'sea wolf' there, there seemed to be no need to keep so many people around.
Since Li Chengqian was ready to go to sea, he and Li Zhen would have a lot of time to chat in the future, so he didn't keep Li Zhen, and after finishing speaking, he let him go back to the ship to arrange the going to sea.
And Li Zhen's purpose in coming to Dengzhou this time is to pick up Li Chengqian, he doesn't have to wait here, he thinks it's good, he can go back early if he picks someone up early, there are still many little girls waiting for him in the South China Sea.
Li Chengqian brought out either soldiers or assassins, and the worst one was also a 'Jianghu woman', and it was really fast to pack up her things. After just half an hour, I was already packed.
Throw away some unnecessary things, let the more than 200 'fangs' who need to return to the station take them, and the rest of them will either ride horses or cars, and go straight to the docks.
Of course, the Peng family, who was escorted back from Dizhou, was also among the peers. Since Li Chengqian promised to send them to a desert island and let them fend for themselves, he would not fail to keep his promises.
Half an hour later, at the Dengzhou Wharf, Lu Da looked at Li Chengqian and his party, and asked with some confusion, "His Royal Highness the Prince, what are you ......?" ”
Li Chengqian smiled lightly and glanced at Lu Da and Deputy General Shi beside him: "This palace has been disturbed here a lot during this time, so you have to worry about it." ”
"Your Highness has said it, this is what the ministers should do." Lu Da dared to glare at Li Zhen, but he didn't dare to glare at Li Chengqian, and his performance looked like a well-behaved little daughter-in-law in the eyes of outsiders.
Taking advantage of the time when the accompanying guards boarded the ship, Li Chengqian knocked on Lu Da's arm with the folding fan in his hand, and said demagoguingly: "Train the soldiers well, don't envy them, these ships will be equipped for you sooner or later, but there will be an assessment at that time, if the assessment fails, this ship will not have your share." ”
"Your Highness, is Your Highness saying that these ships will also have our share in the future?" Lu Da was stunned for a moment, and in a blink of an eye, he asked excitedly.
"This palace said, you have to be assessed, if you can't pass the test......" Li Chengqian spread his hands as he said, this kind of action is internationally used and even ancient and modern, and he can express his meaning very clearly without any explanation.
