Chapter 264 World
Chapter 264: The World
Li Wei is not in a hurry. History is already changing. My mother is definitely not as good as the mother-son relationship in history. It is quite good to get along with each other. Sometimes my mother even protects her a little bit. But she must be on guard against it, but she is still not in a hurry.
Liang and Lu sent people to sail. The early birds had food to eat, and their preparations were much more than other merchants. They sent people to Quanzhou very early to place orders, both of which were the largest ships. Li Wei was always suspicious of the ship's heavy tonnage. For example, the ships like Zheng He who voyage to the West said that they could carry 20,000 tons of 30,000 tons, which was about impossible. Some people also said that the Tang Dynasty ships could only carry about 100 tons, which was even more nonsense. Only after placing an order did he know that based on Quanzhou's current capabilities, they could build nearly 20,000 stone ships, which was nearly 1,000 tons. It was still the original three-sail boat, one main sail and two movable side sails. The main sail was very huge and could cover more than 40 canvas.
Then he sent someone to notify Hu Ying's nephew and asked him to be a guide. But it was not mainly aimed at the islands of the South China Sea. There were also some countries and tribes in the South China Sea. The Melaka channel was still very civilized because of ships and ships. However, the Luzon Islands were still very backward, so the target was where they were. These islands were rich in spices, such as black pepper, nutmeg, rosin, Bicheng egg white cloves, etc., which were sold at sky-high prices in the Tang Dynasty. There were many places, and even produced gold, gems and corals. It is possible that these precious spices would be burned as grass on these islands.
Also, a piece of land was placed a little deeper and placed on Mindanao Island at once. This is for the worst plan in the future, which is why my father, at most he exiled himself, and once he exiled himself, he would leave the Tang Dynasty and go overseas to become the King of Freedom.
Of course, these places are extremely uncivilized, and they are mainly persuasion and transactions, and conquest is also supplemented. Therefore, Liang and Lu sent many powerful warriors, or bought some brave troops on board and prepared a large number of weapons. The others did not all go to Dashi. Some only planned to go to Luoyue Kingdom, some planned to go to Foshi Kingdom, some planned to go to the Pui Kingdom, or to Tianzhu, or to Shizi Kingdom, and some even planned to go to Japan and Silla.
The people took the charts printed by Li Wei and were preparing to go to Liuqiu Island for a walk. Most of the merchants in the two capitals did not move after paying the money. It was not that they were numb and did not understand navigation, and ships also needed money, like a sea ship with 20,000 stones, which cost thousands of dollars. So they waited and watched first. Also, they didn't know what goods they brought over, some brought porcelain, some brought medicinal materials, some brought cloth and silk, and some brought paper. In short, they were chaotic.
There is only one thing, and there are no less weapons. God knows what happens when he goes overseas. However, almost no one is interested in the so-called island owner, and even thinks that his brain is broken, he is not an official or a title, and he doesn’t know how to enjoy money in the Central Plains, so he goes overseas to be an island owner?
So the idea is different. This time, not all Li Wei’s various things are recognized by the world, so there is not much fundraising. But for Li Wei, with money and people, another overseas enclave, you can advance or retreat.
So he looked at him calmly and coldly.
May gradually approached, because Heshan and other states were prepared for the last year, and Tubo did not seek much invasion, so he changed his sight and suddenly invaded Linhe Town, Fuzhou, Fuzhou, Tang Dynasty. The town general Du Xiaosheng climbed the tower to resist the thieves, but was captured because of the enemy's small number. The Tubo people coerced Du Xiaosheng to write a letter to the governor of Songzhou Wu Juji, and advised Wu Juji to surrender, but Du Xiaosheng refused to follow. Seeing that Songzhou began to be prepared, he withdrew his troops, but Tubo saw that Du Xiaosheng was a man, but did not kill him, so he released Du Xiaosheng. Du Xiaosheng gathered the rest of his troops and refused to defend again. So he ordered Du Xiaosheng to be promoted to guerrilla general. However, because of the heavy fire, he was ordered to give his fortune to life.
Several invasions did not hurt the muscles and bones, which was very annoying.
Not only that, Li Wei received a letter from Wulu, which said that I respected as the princess of Tubo. I traveled thousands of miles, traveled thousands of miles, traveled across mountains and rivers, and went to your court Chang'an. Once you went to your appointment, I sincerely asked to help the two countries to avoid the disaster of life. However, your king and ministers regard themselves as great as their own, and regard me as the wild places of Tubo and the ignorant people. Is my Tubo really a barbaric barbarian? I am facing Erhai Lake in the east, Nipola in the south, control the Western Regions in the west, and control the Qilian in the north, control the Tiger Ben 400,000 people. Your court treats me with guests, I return as a guest, and your court insults with pride, and I should return as a string.
Li Wei laughed. The letter was written very clearly. I was wronged and I wanted to take revenge. In fact, it was not. If the war really started, it would not be harassed by small troops like in front of me. Moreover, Tubo did not want to launch a large-scale war. I couldn't afford it! This was the princess who was angry that she asked herself to be a lobbyist at that time. She did not agree and deliberately wrote this letter.
So I replied to a letter:
I looked north at Xiaohai, south to Linyi, west to Persia, east to Haipu. The territory is vast, the best in ancient and modern times. People are outstanding, and the land is the best in heaven. Qiongzhou sea beads are decorated with tassels, and the fine rice of the two Huai Rivers are eaten and fed. Adorned with Kunlun jade pendants, ride in Tianshan blood horses, Mengnan rhinoceros weapons are fun, and Bashu paintings are the Cai Bureau. Civilization originated from the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, and morality has been passed down for thousands of years. There are billions of people, controlling millions of heroes. They are covered with yachts. They sweat like rain, covering the land of Qiang and sheep. The land is actually cold. In the battle of Songzhou, eight ministers committed suicide, and the Eastern Qiang lost their thrones. Songzan was shocked. Taizong felt pity, and Yun'er's vitality was alive. The princess married, and he was a prosperous worker. However, the wolf was ambitious and did not repent. If you want to fight, you will fight. Let's see who is in the world today!
The last sentence quotes a passage from Luo Bin's manifesto to challenge his mother. But this is a war of verbalism and it doesn't mean much. If you want Tubo to be honest, you have to conquer Tubo. But this seems not easy.
The letter was sent away, and it was easier to deliver it to Shanzhou. If the officials in Shanzhou were sent to Tubo, they could immediately take it to Luoshecheng.
In fact, Li Wei misunderstood the meaning of Wulu, and he also thought it wrong. The Tang Dynasty despised him again. Since the request for peace, the calls for war in Tubo have increased. Last winter, he negotiated an alliance at Dongzhihuyuan to recruit reserve military personnel and recruit young and strong households. This spring, he checked the Red Book (Soldier List) at Lakzhibuqiongji Conference Alliance, so that Lunzan Nie would lead his troops to the Turks. This was the Turkish force that pacified the Western Regions to stabilize the Western Regions, and to make peace with the Tang Dynasty to come to a major battle with the Tang Dynasty, and then asked Dong Bu to establish a Qinghai Grand March Office.
The Tubo people were not what Li Wei thought, they could not afford to fight and were ready to fight again.
But Wulu did not agree with it.
In Qilixu's words, the Gar family strengthened the power of the whole country with the strength of the whole country. If they defeated Tubo, they would be unlucky and win, and they would become the reputation of the Gar family. It is possible that the Gar family would win again in this battle and become the uncrowned king of Tubo, and Zanpu became the lazy king of half a coin.
Therefore, the Wulu family and some ministers loyal to Zanpu still did not want to fight this battle, but in the letter, these military plans were not easy to say. I said in a very obscure way, "You treat me with a guest, and I will return it with a guest. I hope to continue to negotiate peace."
Li Wei did not hide it and handed the letter to the three provinces, but even Pei Xingjian neglected the subtitles of Wulu's words. After all, he underestimated the cruelty of the domestic political struggle in Tubo, and did not see the "good intentions" of Wulu's family. However, Pei Xingjian saw some of the letters, knowing that Tubo might really be going to take action, so Li Zhi wrote another article to order the warriors to raise the imperial edict: I am the king of the universe, the Mu Li Yuan, and the whole world, and I will never accept it.
.The Tubo was a remote family, and Tuhun was his neighbor, so he took over his land... Now he wanted to divide his generals and generals, and to overcome the nests of Qing and Wilderness, and he would send a letter to the heroes. However, the Qin and Yong divisions were commonly known as Jin Yong, and the Fen and Jin dynasties, and people were good at bravery. It was advisable to order the states in the inner city of Hedong to seek out warriors. Those in Beijing ordered the Zhongshu to choose from the temples, and the foreign state commissions sent people to learn from the prefectures and counties. Those with strong strength and strong fruits and arches and horses were burning, and they were called "wealthy men".
Speed up recruitment.
Then he issued an edict to promote Shanzhou to the Xiadu Governor's Office, and set up Heyuan Army in Shanzhou, with the Central Army Li Yifu in charge of 14,000 soldiers and 650 horses. Jishi Army was established in Guzhou, with 7,000 soldiers and 100 horses. Momen Army was established in Taozhou, with 5,500 soldiers and 200 horses. Chishui Army was established in Liangzhou, with 20,000 soldiers and 8,000 horses. Most of the Chishui Army was formed by the Qiizhu troops led by the general Qiizhu, but Qiizhu was already old, so he let his son Qiizhu Ming take charge.
Overall, defense is the main focus. After all, Silla needs to be solved. The current military system of the Tang Dynasty is the government military system, and most of the troops will not be drawn out for a while, so it takes time. I have to make a preparatory plan for the accumulation and defense first.
This matter was in an uproar, but Li Wei didn't care much, was not in his position, and did not do his politics.
It was the end of May, and Wu Zetian called to the Daming Palace.
In addition to Wu Zetian, there is also a young man who is not as handsome as Helan Min, and he is calm and composed. As for the children of the Wu family, there is no one who looks bad in terms of appearance, but there is no one who is good.
Wu Chengsi bowed and said, "I have met Your Highness."
He was very polite, Li Wei didn't want to discourage his mother's pleasure, and replied politely: "I have met King Zhou."
Wu Zetian said from the side: "You all sit down."
Then Wu Zetian looked at Wu Chengsi and said, "You have returned to the capital and inherited the title of King Zhou. As a minister of the Tang Dynasty, you should be loyal to the king and the country. Never learn from your father."
Wu Chengsi knew the grudge between this aunt and her uncles and uncles. He had also suffered a lot in Lingnan over the years. In order to make his fortune, his father had to sell it and said respectfully: "Yes."
His attitude was very gentle, which made Wu Zetian very satisfied and scared Helan Minzhi's rebellion. He continued, "Also, this is the prince. I need respect when I see him in the future. Do not learn from Helan Minzhi's unworthy person."
Wu Chengsi immediately replied: "Yes."
Without Wu Zetian's reminder, he also knew the fate and cause of Helan Minzhi.
Wu Zetian then turned his head and said to Li Wei: "Honger, my family is thin and withered, and you don't have many cousins. Helan Minzhi didn't mention it, but Chengsi and you have a strong bloodline. You should also add more gates in the future."
Li Wei said in his heart, it is enough to take care of you. Unless Wu Chengsi is as crazy as Helan Minzhi, who would dare to touch your ban? But he replied: "My mother, please don't worry."
After talking for a while, seeing that both of them were very gentle, Wu Zetian only showed a happy smile on his face. It was not too bad. At least he recalled the nephew and considered his son's feelings for some reason, and said, "I heard that Bier is pregnant?"
"Well, it's been nearly four months." Li Wei was not very happy about this, mainly Bier is a little younger. Although it is normal for people nowadays to have a child at the age of seventeen, the concept has not been reversed.
"This is the peace talisman that I asked Master Fazang for. You can take it back and tie it to Bier."
A very famous monk was translated with Tang Monk when he was a teenager. Tang Monk was not satisfied with his translation, so he went to Yishan Temple to practice the "Avatamsaka Sutra" with Zhiyan. A few years later, he had a deep attainment in the "Avatamsaka Sutra" and had a fresh move, but he had eaten all over the world. Li Zhi often called him to ascend to Li Zhi to explain the "Avatamsaka Sutra" for Li Zhi. Wu Zetian also attached great importance to this monk.
"My son thanked my mother." Li Wei took it.
The first time I met Wu Chengsi, it was not too bad.
In June, Tubo attacked the Hehuang area again. Although the imperial court issued an imperial edict to establish the fourth army, except for the Qiebi army that was originally placed in Liangzhou, other armies had to be slowly drawn from Guanzhong. The Chishui Army had a Qiebi army, and it was still time to take shape. Therefore, Tubo defeated Migong County, Taozhou and Danling County, Fangzhou, captured tens of thousands of animals and nearly a thousand people.
It was not hurt, but it was extremely arrogant.
