Great Tang Southern Emperor

There is no doubt that the person who rescued Locke back then would definitely not instill in Locke ideas such as "the glory of the Tang Dynasty", "the emperor is supreme" or "Da Tang, my mother". How did Li Shimin come here, and after ten or twenty years of brainwashing and indoctrination, Locke only has hatred for Datang, and it is impossible to have any feelings at all.

"However, what you should pay attention to is that now Gao Ming's father has helped you carry the pot, but he also blocked the future with words. In the future, if you want to entrust others, whether you can be accepted by the officials depends on your own ability. It's gone." Li Shimin finally warned.

"Father, don't worry, except for the eldest brother, the sons and ministers have no intention of entrusting them again in a short time." Li Zhen said with a smile: "Moreover, most of the places that the sons and ministers promised to them are far away from the Tang Dynasty. It will take a long time to conquer there, even if I want to entrust them immediately, I can't do it at such a long distance."

"That's right... that's fine. Father called you here just to have a heart-to-heart talk with you. Now that I've finished what I need to say, I feel much more comfortable. You can go back." After finishing what he needed to say, Li Shimin began to push people away. up.

If it was placed when Li Shimin just came in, if Li Shimin said this, the custodian Li Zhen would slip away as quickly as possible, but now that the matter has been solved, Li Zhen is not in a hurry to leave: "Don't worry, the father has finished talking." , but I haven't said what my son said yet."

"You still have something to do? What's the matter?" Li Shimin was taken aback, but didn't react.

"It's nothing, it's just a problem." Li Zhen looked at Li Shimin with a little deep meaning: "Not many people know about the deal between the minister and the eldest brother, only those few older brothers and younger brothers, they are not stupid, it is impossible not to know about the distribution of entrustment How serious is the matter of control, and what will be the consequences if it is leaked... So they will definitely not take the initiative to leak the information, but if the information is not leaked by them, then I would like to ask, I don’t know where you got it from, Father news?"

"This..." Li Shimin's face tensed, and he said with a little anger: "I have my own channel, why do you ask this?"

"But we are the only ones who know about this matter?" Li Zhen's gaze became deeper: "They will definitely not say it, after all, such a big event as enfeoffment is too important, once it is leaked, the court may We will stop it violently, and at that time we didn't know what your father thinks about this matter... For the sake of our future fiefdom, it is logically impossible for them to take the initiative to leak it."

"Of course they didn't leak it. As for where I came from, you don't have to worry about it..." Li Shimin played a rogue, he knew very well that if he told the person who leaked it to him, Li Zhen might not Kill people with your hands, but they will definitely be treated with the highest vigilance.Don't start dividing the land at that time, Li Zhen allocated the rest to their own favorite places, but drew a deserted island for him-this is not what Li Shimin wants to see.

"Could it be that Father is afraid?" Seeing that she couldn't ask by normal means, Li Zhen used a little provocative method: "Father, don't worry, even if I know who told you, I will Will not kill."

"Nonsense, of course I know you won't kill..." As soon as he said this, Li Shimin realized that he had said something wrong-this was clearly an admission, and he knew that this matter was leaked to His own, and this person is in his own son.

"Are you cheating on me?" Li Shimin was a little angry, feeling annoyed that he was being plotted against.

"I don't dare here." Li Zhen waved her hands again and again: "It's just that you are really wrong to do this, Father. You think that if you don't speak, you are saving that person, but you don't know that you put this minister under the light— —Are you so sure that he won’t use other tricks against your minister after he fails to plot against him? Although he claims to be shrewd, as the saying goes, it’s hard to guard against an arrow in the back, especially when the arrow is shot by his brother , then it is even more impossible to guard against..."

"You don't have to worry about this. I have already reprimanded him severely, and he has corrected himself." Li Shimin said perfunctorily. He knew that what Li Zhen said was probably true, but it was related to his other son. Li Shimin also had to lie.

"But……"

"No, no, no..."

"Father..."

"That's it, you go back..."

"..."

……

It was not until evening that Li Zhen came out of the imperial study room, and after pestering Li Shimin for so long, he still didn't get an accurate answer from Li Shimin's mouth, which made him extremely disappointed.

"Zheng Lang." Back at Ziji Hall, Li Zhen repelled everyone and summoned Zheng Lang.

"Your Highness..." Zheng Lang stepped forward.

"You should also know about the things in the Holy Palace." Li Zhen didn't talk nonsense, and said straightforwardly: "I give you an order to find out who leaked the information."

"Actually, Your Highness doesn't have to be like this." Zheng Lang is not the kind of slayer trained by Li Zhen. On the contrary, he was Li Zhen's very important counselor before taking over Skynet, so he would not hesitate to face Li Zhen's orders. Meticulous execution, but if he thinks Li Zhen's order is unreasonable, he will also advise Li Zhen.

"I know what you want to say, but don't say words of admonition. I must understand this matter." Li Zhen's eyes flashed with cruelty. The reason why he wanted to investigate the person who framed him was not Want revenge or something, after all, the person who framed him is probably his brother, Li Zhen wants to take revenge, but Li Shimin will not let him.So his real purpose is actually very simple - that is to announce this person, let all the brothers isolate this person who almost ruined everyone's event, and let him have a taste of this.

"In that case, my subordinates understand." Seeing that Li Zhen was determined, Zheng Lang stopped persuading her, and disappeared into the air in a flash.

What Li Zhen didn't know was that not long after he left, Li Shimin also summoned someone in the imperial study room, and gave an order that was diametrically opposed to Li Zhen's...

Chapter 989 The Fleet Arrives + Contradictions Between Both Parties ([-] words)

3Chapter 17 The Arrival of the Fleet + Contradictions between the Two Sides ([-] words)

Just when Li Zhen and Li Shimin were secretly fighting for each other's reasons, far away in the South Pacific, Liu Rengui had already brought the fleet to the sea area where the Saren fleet had an accident.

"Captain, the sea area where we are being attacked is ahead, you'd better be careful, the enemy may appear at any time." As the navigator of the Saren fleet, this time it was Qi Bin who followed the fleet to set off, but Saren did not come ——His injury was actually not very thorough, and because he was on a ship at the time, the medical conditions were poor, and his injury was just a few random stitches to wrap it up in a hurry. To be honest, it was life for him to come back alive miracle.

But his injury was too serious, and the treatment at that time was very simple, even the bones were only casually corrected, and he was not even fixed with anything, so he survived, even his attending physician Chen Tianlu When he unwrapped his old thread and opened his chest cavity, he couldn't help but marvel at its great vitality—his chest was almost a mess, and there were even broken bones on his lungs. Take it off, he didn't die with just such an injury, and he gradually recovered. If this is not considered strong vitality, then what is strong vitality?Even this is not strong anymore, this is simply against the sky.

Sa Lun is receiving medical treatment and cannot come, so Qi Bin, as the only second person in the fleet and a navigator at the same time, must follow.What's more, it wasn't Li Zhen who forced him to come, but he requested it on his own initiative—in fact, it wasn't just him, as long as the last time Saren's fleet was in good health, they all followed this time.After all, that failure was so inexplicable that they still don't understand what happened until now. If they don't find out the truth of the matter, even if they die, they won't rest in peace.

"How far is it from the island you mentioned?" Liu Rengui asked solemnly. Although he had a reasonable guess about the enemy's court, the guess was nothing more than a guess, and there were still some questions that had not been resolved.

For example, if the leader of the enemy is Li Daoyuan, then it would be too easy for Li Daoyuan to die?After all, as the leader, he usually sits in the rear, and basically he would not easily fight in person. However, Li Daoyuan not only went into battle in person, but also did not follow any guards around him, otherwise he would not have been killed by Du Bin so easily. Beheaded.

Also, the enemy's ships are all small ships. It seems that the technology should be very backward, and there should be no such things as telescopes. Then how did they discover the Saren fleet in advance? You must know that the Saren fleet discovered the ship. When I was on the island, there was still a distance from the island. Saren even needed a telescope to see the situation on the island vaguely. Mistaking it for something else.

But as soon as the Saren fleet saw the island, the enemy's ships had already sailed over, which showed that they had been prepared, that is to say, they discovered the Saren fleet earlier than the Saren fleet found them, but in the absence of telescopes Next, how did they do it?

……

There are many similar questions, but none of them can be explained. The only way to find the answer is to find this enemy and get an answer from them.

"There are still about [-] nautical miles, and we should be able to arrive within an hour." Qi Bin replied, with a flash of joy in his eyes. He was really aggrieved by the defeat last time, and now he is back again, and he brought back Datang's most powerful fleet, no matter how powerful the enemy is, it will definitely not be the opponent of Datang's fleet.

"In this case, let the fleet disperse, set up a battle formation, and be ready for battle at any time." Liu Rengui ordered, this time he brought a fleet of one and a half, and there were 45 of the third-tier battleships alone. There are countless small ships such as battleships of fourth and fifth ranks and transportation boats. In order to form the strongest strike effect, it is necessary to disperse the battleships in advance to form an array-not to mention the origin of the name battleship, because the battleship needs The battleships lined up in a single column, traveling parallel to the enemy fleet, use the side guns on the side of the fleet to concentrate fire on the enemy, hence the name "battleship", which itself is their way of fighting.

"Yes." A man dressed as an elderly scholar standing beside him responded immediately. This man is called Sun Fujia. Although he looks unremarkable and inconspicuous, his real identity is the deputy commander of the Yuezhou Fleet. It is the person who is second only to Liu Rengui in the entire fleet.

In fact, at the beginning, the Yuezhou Fleet did not have a deputy commander, because Liu Rengui was capable enough to control the operation of the entire fleet, but after all, today's navy is no longer Li Zhen's private force, but the army of the imperial court. Maybe he saw the Yuezhou Fleet become Liu Rengui's one-liner, so he sent him a deputy captain as an assistant, which also means supervision.

And this Sun Fujia is not easy to say, don't look at his weak writing, in fact, this is the number one scholar in the Wude period, and the first recorded number one scholar in Chinese history. To be Zhengqing (President of the Supreme Court) of Dali Temple is a high-ranking third-rank official, second only to Zhongshu Ling, Menxia Shizhong and Liubu Shangshu.

It stands to reason that with his current status, it is impossible for him to become the deputy governor of a fleet. You must know that although the commander of the fleet was designated as the second rank in the last court meeting, the status of the deputy commander is much lower than that of the commander. , at most it is only from the third grade.

Sun Fujia's change from Dali Temple Zhengqing to Yuezhou Fleet Deputy Governor seems to be flat, but the real situation is that he has changed from a chief officer of a yamen to someone else's subordinate, from a boss to someone else's high-level news , and changed from a civil servant to a military commander - it is said that it is human nature to rather be a chicken head than a phoenix tail. In the Yuezhou fleet, this really doesn't make sense.

However, Li Shimin saw his earnest expression and his extraordinary performance on weekdays, so he agreed to his request.

Although Sun Fujia's request for transfer this time was a bit beyond everyone's expectations, he really didn't have any conspiracy. Instead, he came to assist Liu Rengui sincerely-if he had to say that he had some conspiracy, then he It should also be for promotion and fortune.

Sun Fujia is very clear that with his ability to be the official of Dali Temple in this life is actually the limit, and it is basically impossible to go one step closer (in fact, he guessed right, in history In the later stage of Zhenguan, he was only transferred from Dali Temple Qingping to Shanzhou Governor, and did not go further), if he wanted to make progress again, he had to find another way, and the deputy commander of the Yuezhou Fleet was the way he thought of.

Don't look at the captaincy of the Yuezhou Fleet who is only from the second rank, but don't forget that Liu Rengui also has another identity, that is, the chief of the Lingnan Navy District, which is the second rank.The Lingnan Naval District has two fleets under its jurisdiction, one is the Yuezhou Fleet and the other is the Quanzhou Fleet. If the imperial court does not airborne, then there are only three candidates for the position of deputy chief of the Lingnan Naval District. The governor, the deputy commander, and the deputy commander of the Yuezhou Fleet are also his grandson Fujia. Among them, the commander of the Quanzhou Fleet is led by Li Jiyao. It can be contested by the remaining two deputy governors.

Not to mention that Sun Fujia and Liu Rengui both belonged to the Yuezhou Fleet, and they belonged to the Yuezhou Fleet, and they belonged to the Yuezhou Fleet, but the Quanzhou Fleet and the Yuezhou Fleet are now in conflict. This matter has to start with the Yuezhou Shipyard. It is said that the Yuezhou Shipyard delivered the first batch of orders placed by Li Zhen to Li Zhen, because the Quanzhou Fleet was still training at that time, and the formation was not completed, and even the fleet base was not completed, so it originally belonged to the Quanzhou Fleet The boat was temporarily kept by Li Zhen in the boathouse of the Yuezhou Fleet.

Li Zhen didn't think much about it at the time, but the Yuezhou Fleet is all veterans, how bad are they?How is it possible to honestly help others watch the ship? ——So they actually pulled out the batch of ships from the Quanzhou Fleet when performing their missions, and instead put their own ships in the boathouse for maintenance (because the fleet ships all have names, which name goes to which name It's clear who it is).

It was nothing at first, but the problem came soon - when the Quanzhou Fleet completed its training and all the facilities were in place, they asked the Yuezhou Fleet for the warships that belonged to them, and the Yuezhou Fleet gave them very happily , Returned all the warships given to them to the Quanzhou Fleet.

However, when the Quanzhou Fleet received the warships, they were immediately furious—in addition to thirty third-tier battleships, there were more than 50 fourth-tier battleships and nearly one hundred fifth-tier battleships in the Quanzhou fleet. In addition to supply ships and other ships, there are a total of 230 ships of various types.

But when they received the ships, they discovered that among the 230 ships of various types, only one-tenth of them were brand new, and none of the thirty third-tier battleships was new, and only [-]% of them were all new. New stuff—this is obviously a used battleship.

Of course the Quanzhou Fleet will not do it. As I said before, you help us keep the warships, and we won't let you work for nothing. We can pay you the corresponding storage fees.But what's going on now?Ninety percent of the ships are probably new. Are you bullying our Quanzhou fleet?Make up, you have to make up.

But the Yuezhou Fleet is not a vegetarian either. With a big wave of his hand, he said boldly, of course compensation must be paid, but since your storage fee has not been paid to us, the compensation for the loss of the battleship and the storage fee will be offset, you guys Don't worry about our compensation, and we don't ask you for storage fees, we have settled the dispute.

Having said that, the Quanzhou Fleet's nose is crooked. Is the warship loss and storage fees at the same level?You guys are clearly playing rogue...
