Great Tang Southern Emperor

"Can you not be in a hurry?" Cheng Chuliang said, "It's been several days. According to our spies' reports, the Sailfish tribe has discovered our existence, and they have sent spies to conduct reverse osmosis on us. You still have to fight, but you have not given a charter, can we not be in a hurry?"

"Do you want a charter?" Li Zhen glanced at him and smiled slightly: "Alright, then I will give you a charter, let's go."

"Hey." Cheng Chuliang was overjoyed, and quickly agreed, took two steps, but suddenly froze: "Your Highness, where are we going?"

Li Zhen took it for granted, "Go back to Datang."

"Ah?" Cheng Chuliang was dumbfounded: "Stop fighting?"

"Why did you fight?" Li Zhen asked back.

Cheng Chuliang became anxious: "No, isn't that what you said, Your Highness? No civilization is allowed to threaten Datang's rule over Nanyang, even if there is only a slight hint of such a threat. Now we don't even have information about the Sailfish tribe. The investigation is finished, but you want to go back to Datang, why is that?"

"But I think what Pei Xingjian said makes sense. Since we have a way to kill people without blood, why do we have to make our hands bloody?" Li Zhen smiled and said, "I thought of a way to kill people without blood, and this palace Suddenly I remembered, the Governor of Borneo belongs to Luo Zhe, of course he was required to do the murder, how can I do it for you?"

"This..." Cheng Chuliang felt that he was going crazy talking to Li Zhen, and you didn't want to do it for him, so why did you stay here for so long?Wouldn't it be over if we left early?

"Okay, don't think about it, hurry up and tell me to go down, I will repair it for another day today, and we will set off tomorrow."

"Yes." Cheng Chuliang had no choice but to agree temporarily, and go back to discuss it with everyone.

Chapter 859 Sabah

Chapter 2 Nineteen Sabah

"Your Highness, are we going back to Datang?" Luo Zhe ran back without even taking a breath, and asked repeatedly.

With Cheng Chuliang's message, several of Li Zhen's subordinates quickly got the news, put down their tasks in a hurry and rushed back.

Among them, Luo Zhe is the most anxious. This is different from what was agreed before. Didn't it be agreed before?How could someone who wanted to wipe out the Sailfish Tribe suddenly change his mind?

"That's right, we've been here for a long time, and we should go." Li Zhen pretended to be disappointed and said, "Don't talk too much, I actually have the same idea as you—hey, so It’s such a beautiful scenery, I really can’t bear it.”

"..." What's all this?Who can't bear the scenery here?

"But didn't we agree?" Luo Zhe said anxiously, "Your Highness, aren't you planning to exterminate the Sailfish tribe?"

"That's really what I planned, but after thinking about it, if I did this, wouldn't I be making it easier for you?" Li Zhen said with an expression that I had seen through: "I will wipe out the rest of the tribes. Doesn't that show that you, Luo Zhe, are too incompetent? So Ben Gong thought about it, and simply entrusted this task to you, so that others can see your ability, and save them from saying that you have picked up Ben Gong's loopholes. .”

"..." Luo Zhe remained speechless.

"You...don't dare?" Li Zhen looked suspicious: "No way? Although Bengong didn't take action personally, he also helped you investigate the basic information about the Sailfish tribe. With this information, You won't or dare not?"

"Who says I dare not?" Luo Zhe was suspected, and immediately wanted to show his ability: "Since you said so, Your Highness, if your subordinates don't show their abilities, won't they make others look down on them? Since Your Highness, you are unwilling to send troops, I would like to ask His Highness to lend you a thousand elite soldiers, and within seven days, if your subordinates do not stop the Sailfish Tribe, you are willing to come and see us."

"Don't, it's just a joke. Are you overreacting like this?" Li Zhen quickly waved his hand: "As for the matter of borrowing soldiers, I don't need to talk about it. Ben Gong said that Ben Gong thought of a way to kill people without blood. After returning to Lingnan, it should be confirmed. If it is possible, let alone the swordfish tribe, even the aborigines in the entire Borneo, don’t even think that there will be any survivors, and we don’t need to spend a single soldier at all. We won't see a drop of blood, and we don't have to be charged with killing butchers, so why not do it?

Anyway, it's only a few months late. Are you still afraid that the Sailfish tribe will explode black technology in the past few months, overtaking cars on curves, and directly surpassing Datang? "

"That's not true, it's just the method your Highness said, what exactly is it?" Luo Zhe heard a chill behind his back, Li Zhen said it lightly, but this way of death is much more vicious than direct massacre. If there are too many, I'm afraid it will damage the morality.

"The Buddha said: Don't say it, don't say it." Li Zhen still kept it a secret, because this matter has not been verified after all, and everything is still hard to say. Let's talk about it after it is confirmed.

"Okay." Knowing that there was nothing more to ask from Li Zhen, Luo Zhe had no choice but to turn around and leave: "Subordinates, let's go get ready, we'll set off tomorrow."

After Luo Zhe left, Li Zhen dealt with Pei Xingjian again, but Yuchi Baoqing did not question Li Zhen's decision, and once again confirmed Li Zhen's decision to train him to be his most loyal confidant, such a talent is really unworthy It's easy to find, and it's rare to meet one nowadays, so of course you can't let it go.

"Let's set sail~"

Following Li Ergou's shrill voice, Li Zhen only felt the boat under her feet shake violently, and then began to move slowly.

With the change of Li Zhen's decision, the fleet's driving route has also been slightly adjusted.Originally, Li Zhen planned to stop by the Pali Kingdom on the west coast of Borneo, but after discovering it in the Sailfish Tribe, Li Zhen already understood that the civilization level of the Pali Kingdom would not be lower than that of the Sailfish Tribe. After all, here is closer to the mainland, and there are many civilized countries on the other side of the ocean. After exchanges with each other, even if Poli was a primitive tribe at the beginning, after hundreds of years of advanced civilization, civilization should appear by now.

So for Poli, Li Zhen is no longer interested, but this does not mean that he will not leave something on Borneo, just like the Spice Islands, of course Li Zhen will leave people here in Borneo to do it. The pre-construction work, and this time he stayed with 2000 people, so naturally Luo Zhe took the lead.

However, Li Zhen will not leave people on the west coast, but the Sabah area on the east coast, where the South China Sea is to the east, and Palawan Island is connected to the north, facing the Indochina Peninsula across the sea, and Palawan Island is part of the Luzon Islands At the southernmost point, those desperate businessmen from Datang will come here sooner or later, and it can be said that it is quite close to the mainland.

And even if it is placed here in future generations, it is also a very important city on Borneo. Li Zhen believes that in the eyes of future generations, since they choose to build a city here, they naturally have their reasons.

More importantly, this place is located in the northern part of the Poli Kingdom, and a port is built here. When it develops in the future, it is absolutely possible to send troops to the south and swallow Poli into the belly, which is extremely convenient.

From Semporna to Sabah, in fact, it is equivalent to spare half a circle of North Borneo. In addition, there are many hidden reefs around Borneo, so the speed of the fleet is not fast. In addition, Li Zhen has to disembark from time to time to collect specimens. , Therefore, from Semporna to Sabah, the fleet took ten days, which can be said to be a slow speed.

Fortunately, the journey was safe and sound, which can be regarded as a blessing in misfortune.

"Luo Zhe, you have to be careful here." After sending Luo Zhe and 2000 people to the island, Li Zhen and others also spent a day here. Before leaving, Li Zhen ordered: "The first step is to build It's a simple port, but don't use the natives here, just build it slowly. When you return to Lingnan, the palace will naturally send a fleet to transport manpower and supplies here, and the construction speed will naturally be much faster... "

Borneo is different from the Spice Islands in that it is very close to the mainland. Even if people are slowly transported by boat, sooner or later the Han Chinese will become the largest ethnic group here.

"Yes, this subordinate understands." Luo Zhe said vigorously, "Don't worry, Your Highness, when you come back here again, you will definitely be greeted by a city not inferior to the state capital of Datang."

"Very good, I am waiting for your good news." Li Zhen patted Luo Zhe on the shoulder, turned and boarded the boat.

"Congratulations, Your Highness."

Chapter 860 Great Tang Chaos

2 Chapter Twenty

Li Zhen left Sabah, and then took the North Equatorial Warm Current to Lingnan.

only……

He had a great time in Nanyang, but the whole Tang Dynasty was going crazy.

As early as ten days ago, Xue Rengui and others who suppressed the bandits on the front line had already returned. At this time, the Cuan people had no power to recover after Liuzhao joined the war. Sooner or later.

And the mastermind behind the instigation of Cuanren's rebellion has also been controlled by the major intelligence organizations under Liuzhao. Individuals, but not all escaped after all, most of them were captured alive by them, including the mastermind of this incident, who was also shot through the knee by the blood dragon guards, and was captured alive. Although it is not perfect, it can also be said that It has been rewarding.

"What's going on?" Xue Rengui grabbed Li Deju, the deputy leader of You Nei Shi Fu who was staying in Lingnan (wei rate's deputy) by the collar, and almost picked him up, and shouted angrily: "You and the left and right Nei Shi Fu are all What is it for? Your Highness has been out at sea for more than a month and hasn't come back, why didn't you tell me earlier? Didn't you just say that you just went out to relax?"

Li Deju was mentioned by Xue Rengui like a child in public, but he didn't feel ashamed at all. He knew that now was not the time to talk about it. If His Royal Highness didn't come back this time, let alone Li Deju This is the person who is directly responsible. None of Li Zhen's close officials will end well, and even their family members will suffer bad luck—and Li Deju's father is Li Jing.

"This subordinate doesn't know either. Before His Highness left, he only brought supplies for 20 days. This subordinate thought he might be back soon. Who would have known him..." Li Deju was also anxious. Li Zhen's side is not very outstanding, if it is not for a good father, the position of the prince's right inner leader and the deputy leader of the mansion would not be his turn, but before he left, Li Jing once pointed him out - not enough talent, loyalty come together.

Li Deju is not an idiot, on the contrary he is still a smart person, of course he understands the meaning of this sentence, so from the first day he was transferred to Li Zhen's side, Li Deju knew that if he wanted to be successful, he had to be with Li Zhen. Zhen was tied tightly together.As for how to tie himself and Li Zhen together, this requires him to offer his loyalty.

That is to say, the fate of today's Li Deju is actually related to Li Zhen. If Li Zhen is successful, he will follow suit. If something happens to Li Zhen, he may not die with Li Jing, but don't I want to end up well.

Therefore, he was more anxious than Xue Rengui, but Li Zhenyuan was overseas, so what's the use of being anxious?

"Then why don't you go look for it?" Xue Rengui was even angrier.

"Where can I find it?" Li Deju was also angry, the sea is so big, His Highness doesn't even know where to go, so where can I find someone?

"..." Xue Rengui was speechless, the sea is boundless, and if you want to find someone, it is tantamount to finding...people...
