Chapter nine hundred and sixty second ordinary day
Li Mingda fired a few shots from Asan, destroying a twisted creature, and the temple rose from the ground with system rewards. His so-called pirate plan went astray.
Zhang Zhongjian was also helpless, but after he, Gan Ning and Li Moyun combined their efforts, he finally decided to continue being a pirate.
As for whether the other party believes it or not, just believe it yourself. They don’t care whether they believe it or not.
Anyway, the spread of news in this era is very slow, especially in the area of Asan, which itself has many legends and myths, and the external religion is extremely complicated. It is normal for some special stories to appear in the middle.
Gan Ning's follow-up troops arrived one after another, and relying on the strength of the East China Sea Fleet, they began to clean up the coastal areas.
In addition to the local members of the Tang Dynasty, the East China Sea Fleet now also has some newly formed dwarfs and monkeys from surrendered island countries. These guys are not as effective as the local members, but they are more fierce and fierce.
Fear of death.
If it weren't for Datang's superior armor and weapons, these guys would have died long ago.
Of course, Gan Ning had no objection to this. Zhang Zhongjian saw that some people were promising and then recruited them into his pirate team.
Pirate?
Still thinking about what to do?
In fact, Zhang Zhongjian's team was not slow to expand. The Tang Dynasty's East China Sea Fleet swept across the coast of Asan and deliberately let some people go. These people would naturally be taken away by Zhang Zhongjian who happened to be passing by.
Pirates do not become official members immediately after boarding the ship. They are slaves first, waiting for meritorious service in battle before they can be promoted and share the spoils.
In the Tang Dynasty, due to the defeat of Tubo, there was no support for Nibala. After they were defeated by the Pyu Kingdom, the Tang army stationed in Sichuan and Sichuan moved here.
After some preparations, 50,000 soldiers of the Tang Dynasty were ready to attack at any time and seize all the territory of Asan. They would continue to expand the territory of the Tang Dynasty and win generous military merits, such as the title of marquis and the title of prime minister.
Li Daliang was a die-hard supporter of Lao Li's family, and Li Mingda continued to use his choice. He also worked very hard after making sure that Lao Li was fine. He himself contributed a lot to the stability of Sichuan and Sichuan.
In addition, the rebellion of the southern tribes was about to end, Zhang Yingying and Yan Yan carried out the finishing work, and a large number of absconding rebels were arrested. These people, Li Mingda thought about it and planned to throw them to Sichuan.
Go mine titanium ore.
After all, titanium is about the same hardness as steel and half the weight, and some specially formulated alloys are stronger and lighter. After testing, Li Mingda's Tang army will be stronger.
Think about it, if the more than 100 kilograms of full-body armor of the Crusaders and Holy Knights is only half the weight, the weight of the war horses and soldiers will be reduced, and the battle will last longer. The horizontal swords, long hair, and arrows will be more
It's sharper and does more damage to the enemy.
As for Li Mingda's concern, Yuchi Jingde, an old blacksmith, was more attentive to the steel plant built in Sichuan than his old partner Cheng Yaojin, and it gradually took shape through his efforts.
As for the formula, Wang Meng studied some in his black technology workshop, and with the good comrade Mo Mo adding some knowledge, he started trial production after the furnace was built.
As for his own steam engine boiler warship, Mo Mo has designed it because the quantity of steel is still being prepared.
Li Mingda doesn't plan to build too many, and will only build one or two for technical testing. Currently, the main ones are steel-structured five-masted sailing ships, which will be built when they enter the Mediterranean on a large scale in a few years.
During the New Year of the Tang Dynasty, part of the old system was still used. Officials from Huizhou and Dafu still had to come to the New Year's Day.
It took me a month to go back and forth, and I was still a little tired. After thinking about it several times, Li Mingda decided to continue.
As for the local officials, Li Mingda didn't want to spend too much time with them. After collecting information from the three parties of Jinyiwei, Neiwei and the Black Dragon Society, and finding some unusual officials, Li Mingda decided to capture them on the spot.
As for the other party's family members and forces, they also plan to gather at the New Year's Day and secretly order the imperial guards from all over the country to attack at the same time.
In order to prevent the spread of the news, after calculation, the order will arrive at all the capitals of the Tang Dynasty at the same time three days before and after the Great Court Meeting, and the arrests must be completed at the same time in a short period of time.
Regarding Li Mingda's decision, his dog-headed military advisor, his concubine, and Pipi agreed. As for Wu Jue, who was a little irritable, she also raised her hands.
Li Mingda looked at Wu Jue who was a little excited when he heard that he wanted to arrest a Taoist official, and began to think about the re-education of his own little Wu Jue. Wu Jue, a little girl, has grown up, and there are only three ways to educate her.
Come alone.
Murong Xue, Li Mingda himself and Lin Dong.
Even though Lin Dong came late, he usually looks like a rotten house. His dark side is not as good as that of Murong Xueh, but he is just a hair away. As far as educating Wu Jue, Lin Dong's rich knowledge is also a big deal.
Killer weapon.
But, if you leave it to Lin Dong, will it go further and further?
Thinking too much is troublesome. Looking at the falling snowflakes outside the window, Li Mingda felt that grilling kidneys was the most practical thing.
First, I unplugged my own system to make sure there were no big troubles under the rule of the Tang Dynasty. I checked the territory and found that there were no special circumstances.
He turned over from the recliner, walked to the small charcoal stove, used a spatula to pull down the charcoal fire, and used the core that was not extinguished to light the bamboo charcoal that he had put in.
Ignoring the powdered bamboo charcoal in my hand, I grabbed the box for storing ingredients next to the small charcoal stove with my dark hands, found the one with the strongest smell, and opened it to reveal some processed kidneys.
Take it out, brush with oil, throw it on the fire, and start roasting slowly.
While waiting for the kidneys to be roasted, Li Mingda calmly grabbed his teapot and boiled a pot of tea.
As an emperor, he can naturally enjoy the tea leaves picked from the legendary thousand-year-old tea trees.
Talking about tea, Li Mingda thought of his own teahouse, which he relied on to start his business. He also fooled Lao Li into making a signboard. Now that Li Mingda has ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, the price of tea has skyrocketed like a rocket.
Li Mingda is not stupid, and not all tea is on a rocket ride. The price increase of the basic version in large quantities is not large, only the high-end products become more and more expensive as you go up.
Those who can afford high-end tea will naturally continue to drink it, while those who can't afford it will lower their standards. Li Mingda threw the money into the Crusaders who were spending more and more money.
The members of the Holy Warriors and Knights and their war horses in the Crusaders have been fed Dali Pills. Their bodies are getting stronger and stronger, and they need more food to meet their daily training and consumption.
Thanks to the large-scale planting of improved seeds brought from South America, and the fact that rice in Zhenla has been planted for several years, there is no problem with Datang's food. He will prepare food for the expedition next.
