"Your Majesty, there is still no sign of the Tang Dynasty Naval Division, and the minister thinks that it is time to issue an edict to urge and see the reaction of the King of Hejian County?" In the Liangyi Palace, the eldest grandson Wuji took advantage of the fact that there was no one left and right, and said to Li Shimin. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Not necessarily. I know it. Li Shimin waved his hand and said.

Eldest Sun Wuji hesitated for a moment, and then spoke: "This ...... Your Majesty, but now that so much time has passed, there is still no movement from the Tang Naval Division. Zhang Liang was bound by the king of Hejian County, and he was not allowed to make any moves, and he had already inquired about the side of the book. The courtiers also talked about it in private. ”

"Mowgli, I already know these things." Li Shimin shook his head and said to his most trusted minister: "The reason why the sailor didn't come out is because Xia Hongsheng is trying to make a firearm in the Ryukyus. If this thing is successful, Datang should be invincible in the world. I'm waiting for this. You know this yourself, and you must not let outsiders know it for the time being. ”

"This ......" Eldest Sun Wuji nodded and saluted: "The minister knows." ”

Seeing the eldest grandson Wuji retire and leave, Li Shimin's originally light and breezy smile gradually retracted, and a slight wrinkle gradually appeared between his eyebrows.

In fact, the courtiers had already begun to talk about it.

A few months ago, Li Shimin had already imprisoned all the envoys sent to the Tang Dynasty in the imperial court, and after the war with the Japanese State was over, they would be dealt with together.

Then, he told the courtiers that Li Xiaogong, the king of Hejian County, and Xia Hongsheng, the Hou of Jingyang, killed the Japanese and changed their clothes, creating the illusion of death, and got the help of several Han people in the Japanese country.

Subsequently, he sent Li Daozong, the king of Hejian County, as the general manager of the Ryukyu march of the Tang Dynasty Naval Division, and Xia Hongsheng of Jingyang Hou as the deputy general, leading the Ryukyu Naval Division from Ryukyu to conquer the Japanese Kingdom. In addition, Zhang Liang was the general manager of the Dengzhou march of the water division, Su Dingfang, the commander of Kuang Daofu, and Su Dingfang, the commander of the water division, was the deputy general, and the rest of the water division was from Dengzhou, out of the East China Sea, and crusaded against the Japanese state. Both of the sailors are the will of Li Xiaogong.

But now, more than three months have passed, and the Datang Sailor has not moved at all.

Although Li Shimin suppressed the courtiers' doubts on the surface, and only let them know that it was Li Xiaogong's strategy, he couldn't help but have a trace of doubt in his heart in private.

It's not that I'm worried about what will happen to Li Xiaogong. Li Shimin does not doubt the loyalty of Li Xiaogong and Xia Hongsheng. It's just that he received a secret report from Li Xiaogong and Xia Hongsheng before, and he knew that the reason why the sailor was temporarily standing still was to make a weapon called artillery.

But now such a long time has passed, and it seems that it is almost half a year before the will of the Japanese kingdom will continue. Now that autumn is about to begin, more than half of the six years of Zhenguan have passed, but the sailor still has no movement. It must have been the reason why the artillery was not cast. It's just that the will has been going down for so long, but the Tang Dynasty sailors have not moved, won't the world look down on the Tang Dynasty, thinking that the Tang Dynasty's conquest of the Japanese Kingdom is just a trick, just an empty word? If so, then where should the majesty of Datang be? Those subject countries, don't they have to look down on the Tang Dynasty, and their minds will no longer be peaceful?

The longer the time drags on, the more arrogant the Wa Kingdom becomes, and the other vassal states still think that the Tang Dynasty has no choice but to move their mouths, which is not a situation that Li Shimin wants to see.

Yes, Li Shimin had some doubts.

"Your Majesty, the right feather Lin Wei rushed to Duwei Duan Zan to ask to see you." Suddenly, the cautious sound of the yellow door suddenly appeared outside the door.

Li Shimin raised his head, his face returned to the light breeze for a moment, and he turned his head to look at Wang De.

Wang De immediately understood, hurriedly walked out, and when he came back, he led Duan Zan back.

But seeing that Duan Zan was holding two pieces of paper tightly in his hand, one in ciphertext, and the other was the content that was convenient for Li Shimin to read after being translated.

raised his eyes to take a look, but saw Duan Zhan's expression excited, his eyes wide, but there was uncontrollable ecstasy inside. So my heart couldn't help but move, and some expectations rose.

"Your Majesty! The minister received a secret report from the Ryukyus! Duan Zan stretched out his hand and stepped forward the two pieces of paper, because of excitement, his hands trembled slightly, and his knuckles turned a little white.

Wang De took the paper in the past, turned around and presented it to Li Shimin.

Li Shimin suddenly felt that he had a feeling of nervousness, and his heartbeat seemed to be a few times faster. took the paper, looked down quickly, couldn't help but didn't put it away, and slapped it on the table with a "pop".

Wang De was startled by Li Shimin's sudden and hard slapping of the table, and before he could hurry up to inspect the words, he heard Li Shimin say again: "Okay!" ”

The old chamberlain, who had served the emperor for a long time, breathed a sigh of relief, only to see Li Shimin stand up excitedly again, and asked Duan Zhan: "Where is this thing?!" I'll go right now! ”

"Back to Your Majesty, I am in the spy camp." Duan Zan said.

Li Shimin's ecstatic expression was unusual. Wang De, who was like a human spirit, immediately bowed down and said, "Everyone, the slave and maid will prepare a carriage and guards for everyone." ”

"Only lead the horses!" Li Shimin waved his hand and said, "The carriage is too slow!" ”

A group of light horses galloped out of the Suzaku Gate. Straight to the outside of Chang'an City, the horse galloped away.

In the deepest part of the spy camp, in the school field, a cannonball, a few non-commissioned officers, and a few boxes were quietly in the middle of it, and the special combat members of the surrounding Datang Blade stood in several circles, cautiously and cautiously on guard, strictly prohibiting anyone from approaching and looking at this side.

As soon as he rode in the dust, Li Shimin tightened the reins of the horse with a "call", and turned over and jumped off the horse with a vigorous posture.

Duan Zan followed closely behind and chased Li Shimin forward.

"Meet Your Majesty!" The soldiers of the special combat team saluted with their fists in unison, and then moved out of the way.

Li Shimin strode into the meteor and rushed in.

"This is artillery?!" Li Shimin walked up to the cannon and raised his hand to press the black and cold cannon body.

"Soldiers of the Tang Naval Division, meet Your Majesty!" The sailors saluted and shouted: "On the orders of the general, I will return to Beijing with the artillery, answer Your Majesty's questions about artillery, and use the artillery for Your Majesty." ”

Li Shimin touched the cold and dark cannon body, licked his lips with his tongue, hooked his throat, and asked, "This cannon...... How to use it? ”

"Back to Your Majesty! The power of artillery is better than the thunder, and it can shoot hundreds of catties of gunpowder projectiles out ten miles away, and within ten miles, all of them are rotten. The soldiers replied in a loud voice.

"What?! Ten miles?! Li Shimin's eyes tightened suddenly, his eyes widened, and he subconsciously swallowed a mouthful of saliva, thinking that he had heard it wrong: "Within ten miles, everything is rotten, razed to the ground, and there is no piece of armor left?" This...... Did I hear me right? ”

The leading soldier replied again: "Back to Your Majesty, Your Majesty has not heard me wrong! Artillery with different projectiles, but different effects. Anti-personnel shells are filled with explosives and sharp iron pieces, which explode at the moment of landing on the ground, forming a large number of fragments to kill and injure enemies. Explosive shells are loaded with more explosives and thinner shells, which can destroy city walls. ”

"Let's take a look!" Li Shimin's heart was excited, and he couldn't help shouting immediately. (To be continued.) )
