Chapter 1389 Before the Western Regions War(1/3)
Li Lizhi took the child and asked, "Call me and listen?"
Li Xia whined twice.
Seeing Li Zheng's face, he started crying loudly.
This child seems to be born to be afraid of his own father.
Li Lizhi smiled distressedly.
The north and south of Jingyang are both fields. On the basis of the development of some simple industries in Jingyang, a certain scale of fields has been retained.
To the east of Jingyang is a house, including a blacksmith's workshop and a printing workshop.
The entire Jingyang is divided into six areas, including the breeding area and the Jingyang Guard.
Since Li Tai got married, he has become more and more leisurely and rarely goes to the academy for things.
These days, Li Zheng goes to see the situation of the big dog every day.
The spirit of the big dog is not as good as before.
Li Tai whispered: "This dog is already very old, it's been more than ten years."
Li Zheng observed its teeth and said, "It should be possible to live for a few more years."
Li Tai was a tube made of leather, "This student from Donghai said it was what Duan Lun wanted to teach you."
Li Zheng opened the lid and took out a roll of drawing paper from it.
The paper is very large, and after it is spread out, it is a map of the East China Sea with routes drawn on it.
The route goes down from Goguryeo to part of the South China Sea, and goes along the coast of the Central Plains toward Luzon Island.
Li Tai said in confusion: "You said you spent so much money, Donghai brought such a picture."
Li Zheng smiled and said, "Your Highness the King of Wei, you don't know how valuable this picture is. This picture alone is worth a thousand gold."
Li Tai looked suspiciously, looking at some details on the drawings.
Li Tai couldn't understand some value things.
Since Li Zheng said that he was worth a thousand gold, he was worth a thousand gold, and he had not missed it yet.
Li Zheng looked at the chart and became more and more satisfied, "If it was a complete chart, it would be worth more than a thousand yuan or no amount of money."
Li Tai was getting nervous when he was talking.
Everything on the chart is an unopened world.
There is wealth that has not been discovered, land that has not been discovered, and countless resources are all in the world outside.
Li Zheng opened a letter, which stated that the boiler was used and the loading of the boiler was smooth. The first boiler ship had already been put into the sea for trial voyage.
Ships at sea mainly rely on wind power, and boilers only play an auxiliary role.
This is the first time that Li Tai has seen Li Zheng more excited than seeing Qian.
Now Li Tai regrets his father and vaguely feels that the sea boats in the future will bring great benefits to Li Zheng.
At that time, the father refused to invest money on the sea ships, but now all these sea ships are in Li Zheng's hands. With just one word from Li Zheng, all of these sea ships can go to sea.
In May of the 12th year of Zhenguan, a news shocked the government and the country. The cannibals once again crossed Persia and jointly attacked Tubo with India.
Su Dingfang, who was guarding Tubo, had to temporarily withdraw his troops and go to the rear of Tubo.
Songtsen Gampo and Lu Dongzan fled from the Potala Palace and went to the Tang Dynasty for help.
And this time it was for Li Zheng.
Tianzhu and Dashi both shouted a slogan to oppose the science that Li Zheng insisted on. As long as the Tang Dynasty could kill Li Zheng, they could withdraw from the Tubo territory and remain peaceful from then on.
The government and the country were shocked, and everyone opposed it at first.
But when we heard that Dashi and Tubo had a total army of 600,000, everyone was shaken.
There are two choices now. First, if you don’t compromise, Tubo is flooded, and there is a barrier next to the northwest desert as a barrier. They can’t cross the desert and attack the Central Plains.
Second, taking down Li Zheng can also use this to add the entire Tubo to the territory of the Tang Dynasty and have peace with the cannibals and the Indians.
There are war elephants in India, and the food in Dashi has strong military strength.
Su Dingfang realized the situation and dared not fight them head-on.
I had known that the great cannibal would make a comeback, but no one expected that this time I would never join forces with Tianzhu.
Li Shimin had been envious of Tubo for a long time.
He wanted to expand his territory and to add the entire Tubo to the territory of the Tang Dynasty.
However, Li Shimin did not reply to the suggestions of the ministers.
Li Zheng, Daniu, and Xu Jingzong stood by the river in Jingyang.
Xu Jingzong whispered: "Silent news, this time Tianzhu and Dashi joined forces with one of Tianzhu. As for how many Tang Xuanzang participated in it, our people are still investigating."
"They believe in the gods, and to them everything related to science is evil, and they want to eradicate everything related to science."
Daniu looked at Li Zheng, "They are going to ruin everything about the teacher."
Li Zheng touched the strange-style iron rack beside him, and there was no one around him.
Li Zheng lit the lead on the gun barrel and retreated for a distance.
"Bang!"
A cannon fired a house dozens of meters away and was blown to pieces, and even flames burned.
The big bull stood there for a long time without saying anything.
Xu Jingzong was also frightened by the sudden explosion.
Li Zheng smiled and said, "Aren't you always pursuing the application of gunpowder? This is the application of gunpowder. I thought it was inappropriate before, but now I think I should leave it to you."
Handing a stack of drawings to Daniu, Li Zheng said, "Tell Mouu, and do his best to produce this."
The big bull said firmly: "Teacher, I will go to Tubo in person, and I will let them see the horror of science."
In fact, it is a bit inappropriate to let Daniu go to Tubo again, and he is not married yet.
Daniu said again: "Teacher, please let me go. I also want to see a wider world. I will definitely return to Jingyang in three years."
Once a person has knowledge, he can't hold him back.
He has been tired of leaving the big bull in Jingyang for the past three years.
Maybe it would be better for him to go out and make a breakthrough.
Li Zheng whispered: "Take a guard from Jingyang into Tubo and let the silent staff cooperate with you. If you think it is appropriate, you can also ask His Highness the King of Wei for some students."
"Thank you, teacher." Daniu left excitedly.
Xu Jingzong's eyes were still looking at the smoked cannon barrel, "Chang'an Order, this thing..."
Li Zheng grinned and said, "It's amazing."
"Awesome! With this thing, I'm afraid the walls of Chang'an City will be useless."
"It's not so exaggerated, it's not useless. You have to hit a few more shots."
Xu Jingzong had a smile on his face.
As he was talking, Li Zhi hurried over, "The teacher has something to do! His father fell ill, his mother has returned to the palace, and Doctor Sun has also been invited."
"When did it happen?"
"Just an hour ago."
Li Shimin suffered from a serious illness.
Your Majesty is seriously ill and the State Affairs Office will be supervised by Crown Prince Li Chengqian.
Li Lizhi coaxed the child who was still crying. After half an hour, Li Junxian came, "Please ask the Chang'an Order to enter the palace!"
Looking at Li Lizhi's expression was nervous.
The incident broke out, and Li Zheng was not sure if this was a trap.
The war in the Western Regions was still in full swing, and the great cannibals and the Indians asked for people from the Tang Dynasty.
Li Lizhi whispered: "I'm afraid..."
"I know, are you worried that this time it will be your father's trap, in order to use my life to seize the entire territory of Tubo?"
Li Lizhi nodded.
Li Zheng whispered: "Don't worry, your father will not be so stupid, nor will he do such a thing. It should be that his condition is so serious that he has to let me go. Your father knows very well that even if it is not this time, I can help your father obtain Tubo. My value is much greater than a Tubo county, so there is no need to do this."
He looked at Li Junxian kneeling at the gate of the yard.
Li Zheng whispered to her: "I'm ready for what I need to do. Someone will cooperate with us. Never open the village gate in Jingyang."
"Understood."
Li Lizhi focused her head, and the child in her arms stopped crying.
