Great Tang Southern Emperor

"..."

Everyone refused to give in to each other, and they were quite confident in themselves. It happened that the shells had been loaded at this time, and the fourth round of shooting began, then the fifth round, and the sixth round...

When the enemy came to 25 kilometers away, they had already fought for ten rounds, destroying a total of 50.00 enemy ships, and the hit rate was as high as [-]%. You must know that this is a probability that can only be achieved at a distance of ten kilometers.

Among the five cannons, Fort No. [-] had the largest number, and they actually hit seven shots, which means that in the next seven rounds of shooting, only one of them missed.And No. [-] was the one with the fewest gains—the No. [-] gunner was sure. Although there were not only two combat exploits, but in the next seven rounds of shooting, there was only one hit. When the statistical results came out, No. [-] gun The long face is black...

"Hahaha, everyone, let me give in, let me in, I'm not impolite, hahaha..." The No. 70.00 gunner is so stunned, he can't help but be stunned, after all, the hit rate of [-]% in [-] kilometers, this fully proves his ability.

Seeing that the rest of the people bowed their heads, he couldn't help but feel even more proud: "But don't be discouraged. After all, our No. [-] artillery position has already demonstrated our strength—or else we use the No. [-] cannon? This in itself proves that We are number one."

"..." None of the other four said anything. Losing money is nothing. They are high-tech troops, and their monthly salary is not even comparable to that of the navy. The problem is that I feel uncomfortable when I lose to others-doesn't this mean that I am not as good as others?They are all full-blooded young men, who would think that they are inferior to others?Now that I lose, it's no wonder I feel better.

"Okay, don't make a sad face, and you don't have to be embarrassed." Seeing this, Ye Shan quickly changed the subject: "I tell you, what I just said was just an appetizer, and now the enemy ship has reached our effective range. It’s the main course, it’s nothing to miss just now, but if you miss again, don’t blame me for not being kind to you.”

"Yes..." Everyone suddenly agreed.

Chapter 1142 Reasons

Chapter 90reason

Just like what Hayama said, although the "Greed Wolf" cannon can hit 20 kilometers away, but that is the limit range. It can shoot down more than 15.00 ships. Even Hayama himself was surprised. In fact, the shelling just now can only be regarded as a deterrent , being able to sink so many enemy ships is purely an accidental gain. If you want the 'Tanlang' cannon to truly exert its power, you have to wait until the enemy ships reach [-] kilometers at least—at this distance, the 'Tanlang' cannon The accuracy rate will soar directly from less than [-]% to [-]%...

Don't underestimate this hit rate. In fact, even during World War II, the hit rate of some naval guns was far below this figure. As for the 50.00% hit rate of the evildoer before, half of the fifty shells hit , that is just a special case and cannot be regarded as a rule.

First of all, because the enemy ships were very concentrated at the beginning, maybe they didn't even think that there would be cannons that could shoot so accurately at such a long distance-the enemy must have information about the "Tianlang" cannon, but It is absolutely unexpected that the 'Greedy Wolf' cannon would have such a high hit rate at a distance of [-] kilometers. Underestimating the enemy for a while caused the fleet to not disperse in time. The more accurate hit rate and the dense formation of the enemy can sink so many Enemy ships are also normal.

The second reason, which is also the most important reason, is that they were so lucky today that they didn't know what evil was in Fort No. With such good luck, they have a hit rate of 50.00% for every [-] kilometers, so they deserve such a big gain.As for the No. [-] battery on the other side, the hit rate is very unbearable. Only four of the fifty shells hit, and two of them were built when the enemy ship approached forty kilometers. , Secondly, only two targets were hit in the first three rounds-this is a normal probability in a war. Fort No. [-] was really lucky to achieve such a big result.

Now No. [-] Cannon has won the first round of the competition, which also makes everyone hold their breath. Those who lose hope to get back their money in the next war, and No. [-] Cannon is not proud. They still want to maintain their own Don't be overtaken by your colleagues, so everyone is full of energy and determined to fight more accurately and destroy more enemies.

"Boom boom boom boom!"

"Woooooooooo~"

The violent shelling continued to roar, and the enemy ship was advancing at the fastest speed at this time. You must know that sometimes even if it can be a second faster, the shell might not fall on your head—— before There is such an example. A troop carrier discovered the falling artillery shells in time and avoided it in advance, thus avoiding the fate of being directly bombed and sunk. Although the ship sank in the end because of the near miss, But before sinking, they managed to transfer the crew to other ships, so the loss was not great (that is, the one that was destroyed by the second near-miss bomb on the side of the ship).

The attack on Yegang was also a fleet formed by the alliance of various forces. The flags that participated in the attack on Li Zhen's battleship appeared again at this time, and none of them was missing. Two middle-aged men, one and one white, were sitting opposite each other and playing chess. The black and white pieces on the chessboard were indistinguishable. The shaking of the flagship did not affect their interest at all.

"It's a terrible cannon. It's a pity that all of these are Li Zhen's. It would be great if they were all installed on our ship." The subordinate's troop carrier was different from the previous one that was affected by a near miss. This one was directly hit by a cannon, and the entire ship was blown to pieces. The army on it should be hopeless.

I didn't feel sad about the sinking of the troop carrier, because that ship didn't belong to the Royal Merchant Corps—although everyone is an alliance, it's because they have a common goal, and even so, they still have to guard against stabbing each other in the back, Where will they support each other?As for that paper covenant?Haha, the one who believes is a fool.

Ignoring the soldiers who were calling for help, the man in Tsing Yi continued: "It's a pity that Li Zhen is so stupid, and he eats too hard when he eats alone. We have reminded him more than once to share the business with us, but what about him? ? But he didn’t even talk to us at all, let him suffer a big somersault this time, it can be regarded as a little loss for him, and a little lesson.”

"..." The man in white didn't speak, but gently put down a white piece, and then signaled the man in green to continue.

"You still don't understand? What are you worried about?" The man in Tsing Yi saw what the man in white was thinking, and said helplessly: "You should know, we have already arrived here, Coconut Harbor is doomed to fail, so what’s the use of regretting it now? As for the ships that attacked Li Zhen, you don’t have to worry, I’ve already got the news that all the ships have sunk, and Li Zhen can’t get any evidence... ...There is no evidence, even if he is the crown prince, or may be the emperor at that time in the future, what can he do to us? If we don’t teach, we will be punished”

"That's not what I was thinking about." The man in white finally spoke up: "I just kept thinking, what are we doing this for? Although Yegang is an overseas exile and it is in the hands of Li Zhen, it is after all For Li Tang's country, it's okay for us to deal with Li Zhen, so why destroy our own territory?

What's more, Li Zhen will be the emperor soon. After he succeeds to the throne, the property under his name is very likely to become the imperial property. The entire Tang royal family, except us, no one is more suitable to take care of this imperial property. What do you think? of?Why do you have to take action against Li Zhen at this time?You should know that even if we really take down Yegang this time, it will not have any impact on Li Zhen's reputation, at most it will only delay the succession of the throne for a few years, but we have completely offended Li Zhen to death... He really has no evidence, but after all, he has seen the banner of our business group. He can't attack us on the surface, but can't he do it secretly? "

"Hehe, if you think so, then I can only say that you are too naive. His property will become the royal property and be distributed to us? Do you believe this? With his character, he will only send money to himself It is absolutely impossible for us to get our hands on the internal treasury. As for his future revenge, it will have to wait until he becomes emperor, but what if he cannot become emperor?" Seeing the puzzled expression of the man in white, the man in green He smiled mysteriously: "Do you think that this is the only lore this time? You must know that even Yegang is not our real goal... In order to destroy him, we have been preparing for five years and have formulated a very perfect plan." The only thing waiting for a plan is the timing, and this time the timing has come... Li Zhen will definitely die..."

"What? Are you going to kill Li Zhen?" The man in white was extremely shocked: "Do you know what you are talking about? Li Zhen may have such and other shortcomings, but his ability is unmatched, even the emperor It's hard to come by...he is destined to be the emperor who will bring the Great Tang to a higher peak, and when the time comes, we, as the royal family, will have an even more honorable status..."

"But we are honorable enough now." The man in Tsing Yi interrupted the man in white very rudely, with a hint of self-mockery on his face: "The Great Tang is already the most powerful country in the world, with Weigao at home, and all over the world submitting to us... As the royal family, they are already the most noble people in the world. How can we be more noble? What if it is a hundred times more noble? The royal family is just the royal family, not the emperor. The status of the royal family gives us the supreme status. But it also places restrictions on our future—we can only be royals, we can only live a life of eating and dying, and we are nothing other than that.”

"..." The man in white opened his mouth and remained silent.

The man in Tsing Yi continued as if he didn't see it, "Even if Datang is a hundred times stronger, what does it have to do with us? After all, we are only the royal family, and the honorable one is Li Zhen. The power of Datang can only add more power to him." What is the prestige of us good for us?"

"Is this why you stopped Li Zhen?" The white-clothed man looked ugly, but he didn't say anything—the Tsing-clothed man was right, Datang was already strong enough, so what if he was stronger?This can only bring boundless prestige to Li Zhen, making people more afraid to resist him, what good will it do for idle royal families like them?

"Of course, people are not for themselves, and heaven and earth are destroyed. Anyway, Li Zhen's continued expansion is of no benefit to us. Now the country he has conquered is enough for us to digest for 100 years. In this case, why should we support him to continue to expand? It is a waste of money and benefits. It's his, but we can't get anything except a higher status?" Speaking of this, the man in Tsing Yi's face was extremely ferocious: "I know you want to say that Li Zhen will divide the kings, but what I want to tell you is , even those who have already divided their own kingdoms on Li Zhen's future map, are not of one mind with him, nor are they all willing to go to a barren land to be a so-called king... Besides, Li Zhen Even if Zhen is enfeoffed, it means that he can only entrust his brothers and daughters. We are not even considered as a family with Li Shimin, and what is the royal family that is not even a collateral line? How can such a good thing get us?"

"...But Li Zhen is dead, what good do you have?" The white-clothed man was silent for a moment, and continued to ask: "Don't tell me that you can't get anything, if you can't get anything, then why would you take the risk? Taking such a big risk to kill Li Zhen in person? It is worth your risk to come here, I am afraid that if you succeed, the benefits you will gain will be immeasurable, right?"

Chapter 91 Persuasion and Joining ([-] words)

"You don't want to talk about you one by one, you have to know that you are also on this boat, you should call us 'we'." The man in Tsing Yi corrected the man in white's slip of the tongue very displeased, and said: "As for our benefits, Of course there is, and it is still very big..."

"I'm sorry, slip of the tongue. But I really can't think of the great benefits you said. You won't be the emperor, right?" The man in white sneered. It's impossible to think about it. Li Shimin is not only Li Zhen Son, even if Li Zhen is really dead, there are still nearly ten princes waiting. These princes are also not fuel-efficient. There are more than a dozen sons, no matter how you count, it is impossible for the Tsing Yi people to turn.

The chess piece in the hands of the man in Tsing Yi fell, and the white piece was swallowed by a big dragon. Then he explained: "Of course it is not the emperor, but it is almost the same as being an emperor... As I said just now, it is not only us who oppose Li Zhen who are disturbed by him." Among the sons of Li Shimin, there are not a few who are not willing to be lonely... One of them... Who is his identity? Because it is a secret, I will not talk about it. We call him "Heavenly King" Yes... His Royal Highness the Heavenly King has already promised me that as long as Li Zhen dies, as long as we can support him to ascend the throne, then he will restart the enfeoffment system and seal the royal family... And as the one who has contributed the most, the fiefdom will be the most important. Nice piece..."

"What?" The man in white shook his hand, and the white piece accidentally fell, and it happened to land on a blank space on the chessboard. With an attitude of no regrets, he did not pick it up, so this piece naturally became Useless, but now the man in white is obviously not paying attention to these things, but looks at the man in Tsing Yi in shock: "So much money has been made, and you still believe it? You are not afraid that the people behind you will kill the donkey." Is it? You know, as the emperor, if he doesn't admit it, you have nothing to do with him."

The man in Tsing Yi took the opportunity to make a move, and once again ate Bai Zi, a big dragon, but kept smiling lightly: "Of course I'm afraid, but even if he can kill me, can he kill everyone?"

"What do you mean?" the man in white wondered.

"Do you know how many people are involved in this matter?" The man in Tsing Yi didn't answer this question directly, but asked a seemingly irrelevant question.

"I don't know." The man in white shook his head bluntly. Although he is also a member of the royal family and a high-level member of the Royal Merchant Group, in terms of blood, he is still a little behind the level of the man in Tsing Yi. He is already a branch of the collateral line. The branch is a collateral branch, and the royal blood in his body is already very weak. He can rely on his own ability and hard work, not to mention the so-called royal blood.

"Hehe...a total of 130 and nine people." The man in Tsing Yi smiled, as if he still felt that it was not shocking enough, and added: "Everyone is from the royal family, and they are related to the emperor within three generations, and most of these people are royal businessmen. The high-level members of the regiment, and the rest are all highly respected members of the royal family..."

"So many?" The man in white was taken aback. After all, he was not a member of the inner circle, so naturally he didn't know such secret news.

The man in Tsing Yi smiled complacently: "We met the Heavenly King together and got his personal promise, and we also left a contract, promising that as long as he inherits the throne, he will continue to conquer the nations, and then part of the land he conquered will be taken Come out and entrust us with so many people, do you think he dares to go back on his word? We can support him up, and naturally we can pull him down. As for killing people? That’s even more impossible, he may dare to kill one or two, But does he still have the guts to kill us all?"

"It seems that the person behind you has paid a lot." The man in white finally realized, but he didn't say anything. He just sighed: "For the sake of a throne, he doesn't even want the stability of the country. Doesn't he know how to divide the land?" Is the system harmful? Li Zhen can entrust the enfeoffment because his ability is enough to suppress those kings, and he has enough means to limit them, and make them have no chance of rising for at least 100 years... But behind you What about the so-called Heavenly King? For the sake of the throne, he can actually abandon the country and society. Even if such a person becomes the emperor, it will be of no benefit to the country, right?"

"Then what do we care about? Even if he ruins the Tang Dynasty, it has nothing to do with us. Our agreement is only to support him as emperor, not to help him keep the country of the Tang Dynasty." The man in Tsing Yi sneered, selfish At this moment, our psychology was fully revealed: "We just need a piece of land. Whoever gives it to us will be the object of our allegiance. In fact, our original goal was Li Zhen's. After all, he has the greatest chance of becoming emperor, but it is a pity. Yes, if Li Zhen is not willing to give it to us, then don’t blame us—if you don’t give us a fiefdom, even if he is the crown prince, we will pull him down. The person behind us may not be as capable as Li Zhen, but he is willing to give it to us. fiefdom, then we will help him to the throne of the emperor... As for what happens to the Tang Dynasty after he becomes the emperor, that is none of our business."

"You are really crazy. Not only are you crazy, but you are also selfish enough." The man in white sighed, facing the selfish man in Tsing Yi, or the more than 100 people standing behind the man in Tsing Yi And that certain son of Li Shimin who wanted to be the emperor and was crazy about it, he really didn't know what to say, so he just shut up - anyway, he himself is not the main participant, everything is in harmony with He has nothing to do with it, even if the people in Tsing Yi succeed in the end, the fief will not have his share, even if they fail in the end, it still has little to do with him... If that is the case, why is he worried about this?

"I can't help it, people don't kill the world for themselves." The man in Tsing Yi repeated his own philosophy: "Anyway, we don't want the position of emperor, but Fengguo has to give us a share, right? But Li Zhenlian I don’t even want to give this...we can’t get what we want from him, so naturally we won’t be loyal to him, so we can only establish another emperor..."

"..." The man in white didn't speak. He was just an outsider from the beginning to the end. He didn't know how many traps the alliance had set up to kill Li Zhen, but he always felt that Li Zhen could not fail so easily. .

After all, the target they want to calculate is Li Zhen. Just relying on his own strength to forcibly suppress the millions of square kilometers in the south, he dare not move rashly. This is enough to prove his ability-you must know that except Lingnan In addition, all the overseas territories of the Tang Dynasty were just conquered, even if the imperial court used various policies such as appeasement or suppression... But after all, this is a territory newly conquered by the Tang Dynasty. If there are no rebels in these places, That is simply impossible.But Li Zhen has been here for seven or eight years, but there has never been a single large-scale rebellion in these sites (except for Hou Junji, which is an internal rebellion), which is enough to prove Li Zhen's ability.

However, such a person would easily fall into the trap of the man in Tsing Yi?It's impossible to think about it—even if they spent several years perfecting these traps, it's impossible to kill him so easily...

The man in white has some doubts. There are many people in this world who want Li Zhen to die. Li Zhen has been assassinated many times over the years, but after so many years, he is still alive and well—if Li Zhen is really so easy to kill If he hadn't, he wouldn't have lived for so many years.

"Don't even think about fooling around, as long as you work hard, you may not have opportunities." The man in Tsing Yi didn't see what the man in white was thinking, but just reassured him solemnly: "If you can make a contribution to this... Although the larger fief Maybe not, but in some remote corners, or in some archipelagos, I think you can still get it-by then you will have your own fief, and being your own emperor will not be as hard as it is now. How much better is it that the group earns so much money but doesn't have a penny for their own life?"

"It's also my share?" The man in white was inexplicably surprised, pointing to himself and said: "I am a side branch of the side branch, how can it be my turn to have such a thing as a fief?"

At this moment, the man in white was really excited, and he even had the idea of ​​completely surrendering to the man in Tsing Yi—after all, this is a fiefdom, who in this world would not like fiefdoms?He naturally likes it too. When the man in Tsing Yi said that he could get the fief, he was also very envious in his heart. He just thought that the blood was far away and it was impossible for him to get the fief, so he just felt a little throbbing in his heart, but he didn't express it. But now, according to the people in Tsing Yi, I seem to have the qualifications...

Countless people worked hard for fame and fame, worked hard, fought desperately on the battlefield, and finally became marquises and worship ministers, but many of them did not have fiefs, and even if they had fiefs, most of them were small, and even came from households. It's just like—for example, when Li Zhen was still the king of Yue, there were only one thousand households in the fief, and among the thousand households, there were two hundred households that he bought from Li Shimin by relying on his own ice-making skills, that is, It is said that there are only [-] households in the general Prince Shiyi, which is far less than that in the Han and Jin Dynasties when they could have their own feudal kingdoms. They were real local emperors. If the emperor had no virtue, they could even raise troops to the side of the Qing emperor.
