Great Tang Southern Emperor

Datang is indeed prosperous, but in his view, these prosperity are castles in the air, without strong military strength, the prosperity of Datang is destined to make a wedding dress for others-and this other person, in Berkel's view, is their great Food Empire, just like Sasanian Persia and Byzantium.

As for the rumor that Datang is victorious in all battles... Hehe, that's just because Datang's enemies are too weak. In his eyes, Datang's strength is at most equal to that of the Sasanian Dynasty. As far as the Byzantine Empire is concerned, even if he can win, it will be a miserable victory at most. How can their Dashi Empire win so easily.

But now seeing the performance of Datang's [-] soldiers and being shocked by the strong morale, Burkel realized that he was the frog at the bottom of the well, which was extremely ridiculous.

In the past, he didn't know the size of the world and the power of the Tang Dynasty, but now he saw with his own eyes that his courage had already been taken away, his face was pale with fright, and his crotch even felt a little moist—how could there be any arrogance?

The Dashi Empire is located in Central Asia and West Asia, connected to the Tang Dynasty in the east, and adjacent to Europe and Africa in the west. Berkle is well aware of the situation in his country and its surrounding regions—not to mention Africa, except for one region of Egypt, the rest The place is still in a state of blood and blood, and tribal melees occur from time to time. It will take another 1000 years for them to unite.

As for Europe, it is even more unbearable. There are many ethnic groups in Europe, and the countries are fighting endlessly. They have already formed a life-and-death enmity. Although there is a Holy See nearby to check and balance, it is precisely because of the Holy See that Europe is destined to be unable to unify.

Even the interior of the Great Food Empire was not peaceful. The expansion of the Great Food Empire was too fast, and resistance in the occupied areas occurred from time to time.What's more, the empire is still forcibly promoting religion in the occupied areas and forcibly destroying local religions... This has intensified the conflicts within the empire. Since his father became the caliph, he has been committed to quelling internal turmoil. The energy to expand...

Having said so much, what Berkel wants to say is that with the quality of the [-] soldiers in front of him, it is enough to sweep the vast majority of armies in the world—including those soldiers who have been blessed by Allah, and they are definitely not opponents;

If Datang had 30 soldiers like this, it would be enough to make the Dashi Empire restless; if Datang had 50 people like this, the Dashi Empire would have no choice but to retreat in the face of Datang's soldiers;

If Datang had 100 million such people, then Datang would be enough to sweep the world, and the whole of Asia, Europe and Africa combined would not be enough to resist Datang's offensive.

Does Datang have 100 million soldiers like this?

No one knows except for the top management of Datang, but what Berkel knows is that, judging from the current statistics, Datang must have 50 such soldiers—at least [-] were deployed in Nanyang Datang , During the northern expedition to Goguryeo, another [-] troops were mobilized, and with the addition of [-] young men who could make one ten, the Great Tang was enough to keep the Dashi Empire back.

What's more, with Datang's current economic status and national self-confidence, the Tang court can pull up an army of more than a million people at any time, and there is no problem with this.Moreover, this army must be fully armed, well-equipped, and well-trained elite soldiers. When they see blood on the battlefield, they will become a qualified soldier. , this is another 50...

Therefore, with the current strength of the Tang Dynasty, it is absolutely possible to sweep the world. If it is not that the internal affairs have not stabilized, and the Tang court also pursues the so-called way of benevolence and righteousness, I am afraid...

Fortunately, things have not reached the worst level, and there is still room for redemption.

This is the case with Berkel, and the messenger of the Western Turks is also an idea.

The envoy of the Western Turks is called Ashina Zhebolu, and he is the younger brother of the new Khan of the Western Turks, Yi Bi She Kui Khan (by the way, this one is still canonized by the Tang Dynasty).

Facing the military power of the Tang Dynasty, Ashina Zhebolu's face was pale - although he knew that the Tang Dynasty was strong, how could he have expected that the Tang Dynasty would be so powerful?

With such a strong army, wouldn't it be easy to destroy the Western Turks?

I am even more grateful to my elder brother Yipishekui Khan. If my elder brother hadn't taken the initiative to surrender to Datang, I am afraid that after finishing Goguryeo, Datang's soldiers would be aimed at the Western Turks, right?

Facing the powerful Tang Dynasty, Ashina Zhebolu really couldn't find a way to make the Western Turks win the war. That is to say, if the Tang Dynasty really attacked, the fate of the Western Turks would be the same as that of the Western Turks. Just like the Eastern Turks, they will become Datang’s pastures, and the royal family such as myself will become the captives of Datang just like that trash of Jieli, and will suffer endless humiliation from then on—maybe even be placed on this prisoner offering ceremony, That would disgrace the Ashina clan, even after death, they would have no face to face their ancestors.

And now the only remaining country on the Koryo Peninsula, the envoys of Silla made up their minds. As soon as they returned to Silla, they immediately persuaded the king to attach themselves to the Tang Dynasty. The Tang Dynasty is so powerful, only by relying on the Tang Dynasty can there be hope of survival.

The power of Datang has been engraved in their hearts like a brand.

Chapter 724 The High-spirited Prisoner Presentation Ceremony (8)

Chapter 87 The Prisoner Presentation Ceremony (8) in high spirits

Everyone's performance was seen by Li Shimin, with a proud look on his face: "Everyone, our Tang army is still mighty and majestic? Are the soldiers brave and fearless? Are they elite? Are they elite? Get your eyes?"

"Fuck, isn't this nonsense?"

This is the unanimous voice of everyone at the moment. If the peat army is not considered mighty, heroic and fearless, then what kind of army can be considered brave, fearless, mighty and majestic?

If Datang's army is not elite, then what is our army?

A farmer with a fire stick?

If such an army still cannot enter our eyes, then what other army can we see?

The Boys Army...don't mention the Boys Army to me.

That's a bunch of perverts.

Seeing that no one spoke, Li Shimin said again: "I see that you are a little bit unconvinced in your eyes. If this is the case, then don't be afraid. There are eight armies here. You may choose one yourself and let them practice for us alone. , I wonder what you guys think?"

"Damn, which eye do you see that we are not convinced? We are very convinced, okay?"

Li Shimin naturally saw what they were thinking, but he had already decided to maximize the role of this military parade, so he pretended not to see it, and said with a smile: "It seems that all distinguished guests are very reserved. Let me roll the roll myself—well, Li Cha Aiqing, let me start with you? I don’t know which army Aiqing plans to choose?"

Li Cha is the envoy of Silla. Hearing that Li Shimin called his name, he immediately sweated and knelt down tremblingly: "The military power of the Tang Dynasty is so powerful. I dare not look up, how dare I witness it with my own eyes? Your Majesty, Your Majesty." Take it with your heart, take it with your heart."

The majestic envoy of a country was so frightened that he knelt down, which shows how hard he was hit before.

The rest of the people also had lingering fears, and they all thought to themselves: The military parade of the Tang Dynasty, which refers to the establishment of prestige, is so terrifying just for the cutscene, wouldn't it be even more terrifying when it is practiced with real swords and guns?

Thinking of this, everyone shouted that Tang Tianwei dare not look up, and expressed their admiration, but no one stood up to question.

Regarding this situation, Li Shimin was also stunned, and then shook his head and smiled wryly—since everyone is convinced, then he can't force it anymore, this matter is what you want, and if you force it, the gain will not be worth the loss.

But people are subject to change. These emissaries are all smart people. As long as they are given a period of time, they will naturally be able to adjust their mentality. Li Shimin doesn't think such a little deterrent can scare them for a long time. Strong medicine can be used - so Li Shimin decided to rehearse the military parade to the end and leave a deep impression on all of them.

Looking at the different faces of a group of people, Li Shimin had a smile on his face, and his eyes were full of complacency. He glanced at the immovable [-] army below him, and the complacency in his eyes turned into joy again, and he laughed vigorously and said: " I have warriors like this in the Tang Dynasty, so why worry about the uncertainty of the world and the injustice of the world? Worship from all directions, and all nations come to court."

"What the Holy Master said is true. The Tang Dynasty is so strong that our subjects are also very honored and at the same time very at ease." Li Cha, a flatterer, immediately hit the snake with the stick and flattered Li Shimin.

"...Damn, this sycophant." Seeing that Li Cha had won the first place, the envoys of the other vassal states immediately cursed in their hearts. While disdainful of Li Cha's behavior, they also felt deeply regretful. How could they react? What about a slow beat?How good would it be if this flattery was done by myself?Damn Li Cha, who can't shit while occupying a latrine, and wasted such a good opportunity, if it were me, I would definitely make Tang Huang ecstatic.Unlike the current situation, Emperor Tang didn't respond at all.

To Li Cha's compliment, Li Shimin just smiled lightly, and said: "Pharmacist, go on, let the people of the Tang Dynasty see the demeanor of our army."

In fact, he also wanted to see the next project from the bottom of his heart, but the entrance ceremony was so majestic, so the next main event would definitely be even more exciting.

"The minister takes orders." Li Jing knew what he wanted, and immediately waved the flag to pass on the order.

Li Zhen received the order and immediately commanded.

"Drink!" A tidy shout made everyone tremble - it was hard to imagine that such a neat voice was shouted from 10 people.

With the sound of violent drinking, this event can be recorded in the annals of history, and the grand military parade, which has been passed down forever, officially began.

The first one started was the Modao team. This time the Modao team sent a total of 1 people-this is already half of the number of all the Modao teams in Datang.

You must know that the Modao team is very well-trained—it's not because the equipment is not easy to manufacture. Since the successful construction of the blast furnace, Datang's steel production has broken through to more than [-] tons a year.

Although these were just the most common crude steel just now, they were not special steel, and could not be used to manufacture artillery or other special equipment or equipment.

But even if it is crude steel, the weapons cast are far superior in material compared to weapons ten years ago.

Although it is not as good as the material of Modao, it is not much worse. With a little refining, the armor weapon produced is far superior to the previous Mingguang armor and Modao.

Therefore, I don't worry about the equipment. In fact, if the arsenal is fully fired, the entire Chang'an arsenal can make a thousand Mo Dao and three hundred Mingguang armors in a day.

The issue is……

The equipment is enough, the problem is that there are not enough people to wear it.

That is to say, although the equipment is fine, Datang really can't find so many qualified Mo Dao players. Not to mention the training aspect, let's just talk about the weight of the weapon-you must know that a Mo Dao needs three full It is one meter long and weighs fifty catties—even if fifty catties in the Sui and Tang Dynasties was only equivalent to the current 22 catties, a 22 catty knife is not something ordinary people can pick up. Such a simple thing.
