"The firearms can be shot in the inlands at a certain point from the coastline, and even a house in the downtown area can be shot down accurately." Gu Qing smiled and said to Yan Liben: "This is the power of knowledge. As long as you know the distance, as long as you know the direction, you can accurately strike after calculation. If it comes to the future, maybe just set up a row of artillery on the frontier of the Tang Dynasty and directly bombard the palaces of other countries."

"The absolute suppression of technology is to determine the life and death of many people in a sense." Gu Qing also stood up and said, "I hate to come to seek peace with friends, because I think the so-called peace cannot be just based on marrying women. This kind of peace is the most useless, the least credible, and the most unstable. Since the Han Dynasty, so many things have happened. In the end, Emperor Wu of Han opened the Hexi Corridor in exchange for real peace."

Yan Liben was quiet for a long time, standing motionless as if thinking, and after a long time he spoke, "Gu Qing, I will hand over what I have learned over the years to the students of the academy."

"The academy will definitely welcome." Gu Qing bowed to Yan Liben and bowed again.

"I'm leaving." Yan Liben said and left the Gu family.

Gu Qing was also Yan Liben's conversation, and Wu Mei was listening. Gu Qing rarely saluted people, and even rarely saluted in front of Li Shimin.

"Are you finished?" Wu Mei stepped forward and asked in a low voice.

"Yeah." Gu Qing nodded, "I admire and respect Yan Liben very much."

"Respect is right." Wu Mei nodded and said.

"Yes, everyone who works hard deserves respect. At least they are moving forward for their own efforts. So many years have passed, and Yan Liben has put in so many years of hard work in the East China Sea. I feel guilty and I am also very selfish."

Wu Mei said again as she looked at Gu Qing's expression: "Maybe this is what Yan Liben wants to do. There are no perfect people in this world. If you are more selfish, I can feel more real."

Chang'an, Ganlu Hall

Li Chengqian received a report from the Tubo Protectorate. Dashi and Rome had successively taken over India and Persia. The two sides jointly estimated that the troops were approximately 600,000 this time, Xue Rengui only had 30,000 troops, and 300,000 troops were still stationed in the Hexi Corridor.

The war situation changed very quickly, Persia and India were defeated, and Tubo was left now.

"Your Majesty!" Shangguan Yi stepped forward and said, "The war is imminent. I think the 300,000 troops in the Hexi Corridor can go to Tubo."

"I'm going to discuss it!" Chu Suiliang stepped forward and said.

"I'm going to discuss it!" Pei Xingjian also took a step forward.

Li Chengqian stood up from the throne and looked at the ministers in the court, "I ordered the 300,000 troops from the Hexi Corridor to rush to Tubo to aid Xue Rengui overnight, and passed my order to Xue Rengui. This battle is only allowed to win but not lose!"

Cheng Chumo sat in the tavern run by his wife. The tavern is still open. He watched a group of officers and soldiers riding fast horses and carrying the flags out of the city, and took a bite of naan bread, and knew that the West was about to fight.

Li Tai sat next to Cheng Chumo and said, "I don't know how many people will not come back this time."

Cheng Chumo nodded quietly.

The war is about to begin, and this time it is the Tang Dynasty against the West. There are several battles along the Silk Road, and many people in Chang'an have arrogance and concern in their confidence.

Li Tai whispered: "We have had many schools of thought in the Central Plains, and have many wisdom. The seniors under this land have left me with so many treasures. I believe that we can definitely beat the West this time."

"I believe it too." Cheng Chumo took another bite of naan bread.

Taishan

After Zhang Jiuling went down the mountain with Li Taibai, he heard a news that the Central Plains was about to start a war against the West. Xue Rengui brought 30,000 troops to meet the enemy's 600,000 Romans and the army of Dashi in Tubo. His Majesty issued an order and 300,000 garrisons in the Hexi Corridor rushed to rescue Xue Rengui overnight.

"There is a war in the west again." Li Taibai sighed.

"I want to go to Tubo." Zhang Jiuling said hesitantly.

"If you are missing your friend, you, will be much less fun." Li Taibai turned over and said, "I'll go to Tubo with you."

Zhang Jiuling smiled suddenly, and turned over and drove to Tubo with his horse.

East China Sea

Xue Ji and Li Yi Mansion also summoned troops and stood on the iron ship for the first time. With the drums, the iron ship sailed and left the port, and headed all the way to the South China Sea. The coastline was vast and an iron ship opened the way. Then, followed dozens of sea ships and set sail, forming a very magnificent landscape.

Children shouted barefoot on the beach chasing the boat.

Li Yifu stood on the deck of the iron ship, looking at the blue sky in the blue sea and exclaimed, "This is the sea."

Looking at the water and sky, Xue Ji said, "It's very magnificent."

"Yes." Li Yifu nodded, "This trip is worth it this time."

Nanzhao

Wu Laoqi received the news from the Qing Gang that it was time to set off for Tianzhu. Seeing the sunset dyed red, the sky and the sea dyed red, he said to his subordinates: "Brothers, this is the last time we have worked for Mr. Gu. We are going to Tianzhu to set off for the fleet behind. Once we board the coast of Tianzhu, we may have to face thousands of Tianzhu people. Are you afraid, brothers?"

"We are not afraid!" a group of brothers shouted.

Wu Laoqi grinned and said, "Okay! This time we will fight for a wealth! If we survive, we will enjoy the glory and wealth of the rest of our lives!"

The King of Nanzhao also stood by the sea, looked at the sea surface under the setting sun and whispered to Wu Laoqi: "I hope you can come back alive."

"Pray for me." Wu Laoqi said: "I went deep into the army this time, so it's hard to say whether I can come back."

"Actually, you don't have to work hard for Gu Qing. I can give you the glory and wealth you want." King Nanzhao said to Wu Laoqi.

Wu Laoqi grinned and said, "You are polite. Although I, Wu Laoqi, like wealth and honor, I was born in the Central Plains after all. No matter how my brothers live in the future, I, Wu Laoqi, will die on the land of the Central Plains even if I die. If I have the chance, when I come back alive, I will definitely go and take a look at Gu Qing. I want to prove to Gu Qing that Wu Laoqi is also a strong man."

The King of Nanzhao patted Wu Laoqi on the shoulder and said, "Come back alive, even if you don't stay in Nanzhao, as long as you go to Nanzhao, I will serve you with wine and celebration. If you have nowhere to go, you can come to Nanzhao to find me."

"Don't give it."
