When Li Daozong came out, Fang Xuanling and others were so surprised that eggs were dropped from their mouths. After all, it had not been a day or two since Li Daozong was thrown into the sky jail. Li Mingda would not kill him or let him go. Why on earth was he really

Can't figure it out.

Anyway, in their eyes, Li Mingda could sort out the clan several times and would not do it out of mercy.

They just made some guesses about the specific reason, but they couldn't figure it out. If Li Mingda knew this idea, he would definitely declare that he kept Li Daozong alive out of kindness. It doesn't matter whether they believe it or not, anyway.

Just believe it yourself.

Li Mingda gave them three days, and drank the farewell wine together with Fengjiu. On the third day, the two were escorted by more than a thousand riders and sent to the land of Sichuan and Sichuan together with two Shangfang swords.

Far away in Yangzhou

After a period of settlement and revision, the pirate fleet of the beard Zhang Zhongjian has been completed. According to the original plan, he took a number of retired old-fashioned sea ships and followed Gan Ning's transport fleet to set off for the Strait of Malacca in Southeast Asia.

.

There are many storms along the tropical coast. After experiencing the baptism of summer storms, summer is coming to an end and autumn storms are coming soon.

As the general person in charge of Datang Southeast Asia, Li Moyun felt that he was under a lot of pressure. In order to complete the construction of the military base, he used his brain hard and came up with various methods to strive to complete the construction of this military base as quickly as possible.

The construction of a significant Tang naval base was completed.

Relying on Datang's local transportation, he successfully established a cement factory. Most of the steel was transported from the South China Sea. Only when transportation could not keep up due to storms and other reasons, local steel was chosen as a supplement.

In this era, there is no need to consider too high quality, it is enough for Datang to use in recent decades. Sitting in a small reinforced concrete building built in the naval base, looking at the raging sea breeze outside, Li Moyun is used to it.

"Sir, this storm will last for a few more days, and the construction schedule will be delayed again, and the shipyard has also been affected."

Li Moyun: "I understand. Rome was not built in a day. Just work step by step. This base is just the foundation. It will be renovated at some point in the future."

"Yes, sir"

Li Moyun is not very optimistic about the progress of the project. Comparing speed and quality is the most critical thing. And because of the storm here, even if the harbor is covered, once a storm passes through, these wooden ships need to be provided.

Certain fixation and shielding.

After the storm passed, it rained for two more days. After the storm calmed down, under the supervision of Li Moyun, the workers walked out of their resting dens and began to work nervously.

The cement storage area is a warehouse for storing gunpowder and fuel. It was built with the highest priority. It is located at a slightly higher place to prevent rainwater from pouring in. Even in a storm, the thick cement walls can withstand it.

Live invasion.

When truckloads of cement are being transported out, there are a lot of workers, densely packed together like ants moving. Some of these workers are recruited workers, some are prisoners brought over for labor reform, and some are rebel prisoners of war.

They are going to be executed. Pull them over and let them die in a different way.

Naturally, there are three types of people with three types of treatment. Ordinary workers are given very generous wages. This has always been the policy of the Tang Dynasty.

Prisoners will also have a small amount of wages. They can buy some things other than the originally rationed food, or they can save it and take it away until their sentence is over. If they die unexpectedly, they will be counted and sent to their relatives.

.

The rebels received no generous treatment other than food. They were shackled and did some of the dirtiest and most tiring work to atone for their crimes.

Li Moyun is not a Holy Mother. Mercy is only given to those who are kind. This is his style.

After these years of coming and going, Gan Ning has become familiar with this sea area, the formation and characteristics of storms. He slowly arrived at the Malacca Military Port with Zhang Zhongjian.

The two stood on the bow of the ship, looking at the bustling base under construction. Zhang Zhongjian was filled with emotion.

This military base is too big, beyond his expectation. According to what Gan Ning introduced to him on the road, it can support at least a thousand warships and a hundred thousand naval officers. As for the army, there will be no less. This will be an expedition in the future.

One of the forward bases.

"so big"

Gan Ning leaned over and said, "Old Zhang, what are you thinking about?"

Looking at Gan Ning with a strange expression on his face, he instantly understood Gan Ning's thoughts after being in contact with Gan Ning for many days. He defended: "I'm talking about the base."

Gan Ning: "I'm also talking about a base? What are you thinking about, Lao Zhang?"

Looking at Gan Ning with a smile on his face, Zhang Zhongjian knew that he was almost tricked by the opponent again.

This Gan Ning has a very strong aura of martial arts, and does not look like the naval commander of an empire at all. However, this is the reason why Zhang Zhongjian and Gan Ning not only admire him, but also want to make friends with him.

Zhang Zhongjian has been wandering around for many years and has a strong aura in the world. Even if he becomes a pirate, the aura of a local emperor will naturally be stronger. Gan Ning was born in Bajun, a local tycoon, and his family was wealthy. Later, he became a water pirate. Both of them traveled by water.

He has a bold and generous nature, coupled with the cheerful and generous style of Gan Ning, the flagship of the surrender and rectification this time.

A man of great influence a hundred years ago, someone who can be recorded in history is naturally not an ordinary person. Of course, there are still some differences between Gan Ning's story and what was recorded: Gan Ning has an impetuous temperament and is easily agitated. When angry, he often beats or even kills people, and sometimes does not listen completely.

Sun Quan's orders were brave and resolute, forthright and cheerful, resourceful, valued talents, philanthropic, and caring for subordinates. The soldiers were willing to obey orders. It is said that Sun Quan was good at employing people, "doing not seek to prepare for one person", and being able to "forget his shortcomings and take care of his subordinates".

"Use your strengths", of course, Lu Meng also called him "fighting general". As for the word "fighting", the word "fighting" mostly has a complimentary meaning.

Gan Ning's fiery temper is now much less violent and more enjoyable. Of course, he obeys Li Mingda's orders and occasionally has some small ideas. On the macro line,

, Gan Ning will not do anything outrageous, but for some small details, Gan Ning will use his own method.

Of course, Li Mingda would not ask them to listen to him whether they eat or not. A qualified commander must have his own thoughts. As the emperor, he only needs to give them the direction and goal to move forward.

A group of civilians who don't know anything about military affairs command remotely and rely on random guessing to command an army from thousands of miles away. That kind of emperor is completely stupid and stupid.

The fleet docked, and the officers and men of the East China Sea Fleet began to unload the cargo.
