Rule the Roost in the Tang Dynasty: Five hundred and forty-four scolding Cui Zhibian
Li Chunfeng watched Li Hong firm up his opinion, but if this were to happen, he and Cui Zhibian’s lowest goal would be far behind. Originally, according to their plan, at least seven The same giant ship comes.
If it were seven huge ships, this way, at least it can be guaranteed that three of them are moored in the dock for repairs, and four have been patrolling at sea to protect the safety of Datang’s merchant ships and fishermen.
But now the prince's words completely stifled their hope in the cradle, leaving no chance at all, making their original ample coastal defense plan suddenly stretched.
And if Li Chunfeng wants to go to the ocean, it is impossible to do it with only one giant ship. At least two giant ships are required to cruise together. Therefore, in this way, Datang can only use three ships. , There are only two ships that can cruise on the sea for a long time.
Li Hong naturally knew what they were thinking, and he smiled and said: "Sometimes it is not necessary to cruise on the sea every day to frighten those Panbangs who are guilty of my Datang. Just take a chance. , Completely wiped them out, next time they would not dare to come to my Datang coast to do whatever they want. In this way, you will drive your huge ship to his door and beat him up in this way, ha ha , Do you think they will still approach my Datang Sea?"
"But if this is the case, Your Royal Highness will damage my Datang’s benevolent governance and virtue. I am afraid that in the end, Wan Guo will only fear and no respect for my Datang." Cui Zhibian knew the strategy of the Prince. The executor, if not unexpected, will naturally fall on himself.
But in this way, let’s not say whether I will be impeached by all the colleagues in the court, even if it is a foreign envoy, I will continue to complain to the Tang and your Majesty. When the time comes, I will be embarrassed and under pressure. It's the prince.
What's more, now your Majesty faintly has the meaning of Zen position. At this moment, should His Royal Highness adopt the policy of gentleness as the mainstay, supplemented by military conquest and deterrence.
Li Hong smiled again and said: "There is no respect for where I am afraid? Do you think that with a generous heart, you can make the Quartet barbarians respect me Datang? If it is possible, why does the Wa country have to send it year after year? Messenger, I hope to send students to my Datang to study, while at the same time invading my coastal people? Where is the respect of the Japanese to my Datang?"
"It's not because you have not allowed Japanese students to come to my Datang to study in the past few years." Cui Zhibian muttered, lowering his head.
"Even if I open the door to the country and let them come in and study, it will not change their wolfish ambition character! I will tell you that the first thing you will do in two days is to drive the giant ship to the country of Wa If you can't get back ten million taels of silver, you will keep the giant ship around the country until they make up ten million taels of silver, and you will come back again." Li Hong put down his tea cup angrily and said coldly: " Also, how did our ship sink, don’t you Cui Zhibian know? If we have a chart of the Japanese country in the past few years, and know where the reefs on the sea are located, we will be silent. Would you like to exchange a ship for self-made charts? I kept saying let Datang let me follow the benevolent etiquette, but the country was stingy and reluctant to give me a pair of sea charts. Why should I impart my knowledge of Datang? Give it to them? If you want to learn, you can, or that sentence, a student is one thousand taels of silver, regardless of food and accommodation, as much as you can give!"
Li Hong said angrily. Cui Zhibian who was reprimanded was speechless, lowered his head and stopped talking. Of course he knew that what the Prince said was the truth, and he also understood what the Prince did, but now the Prince Your Highness is at a critical moment, and really shouldn't make enemies everywhere.
Internal and external troubles follow one after another. If this continues, Cui Zhibian is deeply afraid that the prince will make a mistake and miss the overall plan.
"Your Highness calms down, Brother Cui is loyal to you, but I'm afraid that at this time, the little can't bear it will make a big plan, and I am afraid you..." Seeing the atmosphere, Li Chongyi looked a little dull because Li Hong scolded Cui Zhibian , So he said roundly.
"If you can’t bear it, you’ll be conspiring? You’ve been holding it back and being shackled by this sentence, how can I make the Tang Dynasty truly convince the nations? It’s because of this **** that you’re too small and can’t bear it, and you’re conspiring. How many great fighters did Tang miss, and how many great opportunities did he miss to razor the land of other countries? Each mouse was short-sighted, really thinking that there were only a few fishes in the sea? If it was just a few fishes, I would sit by the West Lake and raise fish. Forget it, I'm fighting over the sea!" Li Hong threw away Bai Chun's comforting hand and continued to say coldly.
"Cui Zhibian, you are the only commander of the navy in my Datang after Yunguo Zhang Liang. The maritime trade is no less prosperous than the Hexi Corridor and Anxi is called The huge business opportunities along the Silk Road, Dengzhou, Quanzhou, and Guangzhou, do you not know what the value of commercial goods shipped from the sea each year is? How many imported goods are delivered to our Datang every year, and how many goods of our Datang depart from the ports. Was trafficked to another country? Have you ever counted the sum of these money? If the offshore and far seas surrounding my Datang are all controlled by my Datang, and all the waterways are patrolled by my Datang ships, then, How much wealth will be increased? With the accumulation of wealth, let alone anything else, I can trim a fairy palace for the West Lake at my door! Those people in Hangzhou who live in dire straits can also survive because of the gift of Datang Go to the days of prosperity and well-being. The rat is short-sighted, only knows the etiquette, and does not know that the people are in deep waters, as you continue, and continue to be frogs at the bottom of the well. Sooner or later, people’s strong boats and guns will hit our land!"
At this time, it is no longer Cui Zhibian frowning, even Li Chongyi, Li Chunfeng, and Bai Chun are all quietly listening.
After a short silence in the tea room, Li Chunfeng and Cui Zhifen did not dare to speak any more at this time, and Bai Chun also became behaved because of Li Hong's anger, and naturally he did not dare to speak at will.
Only Li Chongyi, with a smile on his face, said dryly: "His Royal Highness calms down, you are talking about issues that the minister and others have never thought of. For a while, the minister cannot make a decision, but the minister believes , His Royal Highness is so persistent to do it, obviously not for himself, but for the generations of my Tang Dynasty, the ministers and others admire. As His Royal Highness said, there is no respect for fear, and the minister deeply agrees. His Royal Highness reprimanded today, the minister Be sure to keep it in mind."
"His Royal Highness, the ministers and others have short-sightedness and truthfulness. His Highness's remarks today awakened the minister's heart and made him understand, above the sea, where I should be, and where should I stand. I have been fortunate to have seen merchants from the Great Food Country land in our Datang from Guangzhou in the past two years. The minister had already recognized that they were powerful at sea, but the minister never took it to heart. He thought that as long as I was strong in Datang Tieqi, he would not be the Great Food Country. I dare to think too much about my Datang, but now that I think about it, the minister is too simple." Cui Zhibian got up sincerely and saluted Li Hong, and said heavily.
Li Chunfeng also sighed, and said heavily, "His Royal Highness said that if it were not for the stingy of the Japanese country, the minister would not silence a giant ship because of the distance to the Japanese country. If you can get the chart of the Japanese country, The four giant ships that we sank all headed south in unison, and it is even possible that they have actually reached the continent you mentioned."
"It’s early. I want to get there. At the current sailing speed and the unfamiliar waterway, I won’t be able to get off for three to five months, but it’s not anxious to say it’s not anxious, or it’s a rubber tree. , Is to further improve the necessary items for the gas to ball, so in a few days, you can set off, the two giant ships are under your full authority, this trip, you Li Chunfeng want people to give people, ask for money, I’m Li Hong fully supports you!" Li Hong said lightly after taking the tea that Cui Zhibian poured.
"So thank you, Your Highness, but now there are five huge ships, and two more are installed in the Quanzhou Dockyard. I am afraid it will be a while." Li Chunfeng said regretfully.
"It’s not easy to do? You and Cui Zhibian are in charge of one ship~IndoMTL.com~ Going to the country requires some travel expenses and compensation, so come and go. After returning to Quanzhou, you can also ship out the two ships you want. The dock is now? At that time, Cui Zhibian will renovate for two months, and then continue to go south." Li Hong found that after being reprimanded by himself, the brains of these people became a little sluggish because of his anger.
When Li Chongyi and Bai Chun heard Li Hong's words, they couldn't help but laugh when they wanted to go to Japan to spend some money on the journey, while Cui Zhibian and Li Chunfeng looked a little embarrassed.
The prince's remarks are undoubtedly similar to the robbers. Although the reason is the same, because the Japanese country made Datang silent a huge ship, it should be a bit of money, but don’t say it so bluntly, OK?
Just like everyone's first time to do business in the market, before the first shout, there will be a trace of embarrassment written in his heart and face, and it is difficult to open his mouth.
But when you muster up the courage and shout out the first yell, then this person can be regarded as truly entering the market, integrating into the market, and becoming a qualified vendor.
Now, Cui Zhibian and Li Chunfeng are like vendors who have entered the market for the first time and are ready to shout.
So when you look at me and I look at you, the two of you see His Royal Highness in each other's eyes. This is "forcing the good to be a prostitute"! But what can be done? What the Royal Highness said, the rationale is the same, isn't it just a little ugly.
Think about the pirates of the Japanese country, who looted and plundered the wealth of the people along the coast of Datang and the fishermen from time to time. They personally came to them to ask for some money, right?
If you don't give it, just as the Prince said, then drive the boat around the country of Japan until you pay the money and come back.
(ps: Thank you for the help of Star Blood, so I used Chen Qinghan, which is in line with Chen Jingzhi's character, thank you!)
