"What! Lin Fan actually sank three Fusang warships with ten red cannons!"

Li Hao was shocked when he learned about this.

You know, although he never took Fusang Kingdom seriously, the craftsmen of Fusang Kingdom were indeed good, and the warships were made extremely sturdy.

That thing could not be shot through many bows and arrows, and Lin Fan actually bombarded it with a cannon. This! The power of this red-clothed cannon is too strong.

"Your Majesty, Lin Fan's battle has proved the power of the red-clothed cannon. However, he only has ten. If we use the whole country to build cannons, it is not a problem to create a hundred cannons."

Yuan Tiangang said.

He has now deeply realized the importance of the red-clothed cannon. At this time, if the rebellion of the Nine Spirit King could be brought to the battlefield, he would definitely defeat the Nine Spirit King's army.

At that time, let alone the Nine Spirit Kings, everyone will surrender. How dare the Eastern Turks ask them for benefits? Just start fighting until they are convinced.

"Mobilize the whole country?"

Li Hao asked in a deep voice.

"That's right, it's just to mobilize the whole country. You know, it's very expensive to build this red cannon now, and the number of shells is also large."

"That's not all. We have to gather craftsmen from all over the country to build them as fast as possible. Create twenty gates, and then take them to Liangzhou and give the Nine Spirit King a blow first."

Yuan Tiangang said.

"If the whole country is being mobilized, how will the palace operate? What should the officials of the Tang Dynasty do if they pay the silver?"

Li Hao asked.

As the emperor, he naturally had to consider the issue of officials. After all, if he wanted to run away, he had to eat grass for him. This money was the official's grass.

"Your Majesty, this matter cannot be delayed. Now that the Nine Spirit King is rebelling, you can't take it down for a long time. King Yan is secretly traveling to Chen Cang again. Give him time, that's the second rebel."

"Now, only the whole country can save money and spend money to fight. At worst, after winning, we will be exempted from taxes for several years."

Yuan Tiangang advised.

Li Hao still frowned and asked the people to live a life of nervousness, but he didn't care, but those officials would never agree.

In fact, he knew the power of the red-clothed cannon at that time and wanted to build more, but the cost of building was too high.

"Damn it! How did that bastard Lin Fan have so much money to create ten red cannons?"

Li Hao said in a deep voice.

In fact, Lin Fan's ten red-clothed cannons were built because he had Xiang Wentian and Luban around him, and at the same time, an iron ore and coal mine.

This saved a lot of material resources. However, after creating these ten cannons, Lin Fan had to slow down the idea of ​​continuing to build.

This thing is more expensive than you think!

"I can accept it, but officials also want to live, will they accept it?"

Li Hao asked.

"This... as long as your Majesty set an example and took out all the money earned from the factory, those officials would agree even if they were dissatisfied."

Yuan Tiangang said.

...

It is definitely not possible to use your own private money.

"No matter what, I will raise this matter tomorrow morning. No matter what, the red-clothed cannon will first create twenty gates, and then quell the rebellion of my uncle Ninth, and then say something else."

Li Hao said.

Twenty gates are enough to calm the chaos.

Not only did Yuan Tiangang shake his head in the case, but Li Hao was not brave enough. At this time, he should take this opportunity to build a hundred sects, destroy the Nine Spirit Kings, and directly reduce the vassals, so that King Yan and others no longer threatened them.

Immediately afterwards, the cannons were pulled to the Western Turks, and a bombardment was made to ask them to take out their treasures to pay tribute, so that the financial crisis of the Tang Dynasty could be basically resolved.

By then, the Tang Dynasty will become more powerful and you will be able to find the five surnames and Qi Wang to ask for money.

The morning court the next day.

Li Hao was wearing a dragon robe and sat on the dragon throne, looking at the civil and military officials below. Since the rebellion of the Nine Spirit King, there have been many fewer people below.

"My dear friends, in order to quell the rebellion of the Nine Spirit King, I decided to build twenty red cannons with all my might. Therefore, I need to do my best."

Li Hao said.

When Li Hao said this, the officials present were silent. The meaning of this effort must be related to money.

Although they are officials, the amount of silver they don’t support the whole family. The silver is deducted from other places, but it is not given by your court, so it’s not OK to take it out.

Seeing all the officials silent, Li Hao naturally knew that they were unwilling. Li Hao said again: "My dear friends, aren't you willing to contribute to the Tang Dynasty?"

"Your Majesty, in the opinion of a humble minister, it is better to send someone to Yizhou and persuade the Marquis of Yongwu to take action. We will definitely be able to defeat the Nine Spirit Kings in both directions."

A man said in a deep voice.

"Although the Marquis of Bold and Martial Arts is still majestic. As long as he agrees to take action, the entire Anxi Protectorate will obey His Majesty. By then, our Tang Dynasty will be restored to peace and peace, just around the corner!"

All officials said.

Li Hao frowned, and these people were responsible for giving advice and not doing anything about the money.

However, he had already thought of the idea of ​​asking the Yongwuhou to take action, but the Yongwuhou had made it clear that he would not take action.

These officials really made him embarrassed.

"Your Majesty, in the opinion of the empress, you should recall the civil and military servant Lin Fan and hand over the army to him. With his ability, you will definitely be able to surrender the Nine Spirit King."

Zhao Jinyuan said at this time.

He still never forgets Lin Fan.

Hearing Zhao Jinyuan's words, Li Hao's face was as gloomy as water. If Lin Fan was believing, he would have recalled Lin Fan long ago.

Now, Lin Fan has developed stronger than the surrounding states, and he has never taken the initiative to stand up to solve the trouble for the court, which shows that he has long been rebellious.

What Li Hao didn't know was that you didn't trust Lin Fan, and it was so cold that Lin Fan's heart could he take the initiative to solve the trouble for the Tang Dynasty.

"Your Majesty, please give me a decree to invite the civil and military servant Lin Fan to return to Beijing to report his life."

Changsun Wuji spoke.

Du Ruhui also said: "Your Majesty, the best decision to get Lin Fan back now is undoubtedly the best decision."

Li Hao's face became more and more serious. At this time, a Taoist priest walked in from outside the hall, walked to the center of the hall, knelt respectfully on the ground to salute Li Hao, and then said, "Your Majesty, I am a Taoist priest in Heifeng. Now, wars in the Tang Dynasty are everywhere, and the people are living in poverty. I will come to relieve your worries."

"Yeah! How did you come in?"

Li Hao asked.

The Imperial Guard obeys the orders of him and there are bad people guarding him. How did this person come in?

"Haha! Your Majesty, don't panic. You are the true dragon emperor. I dare not do anything to hurt Your Majesty. With so many ministers here, I dare not act rashly."
