Chapter 715: The first aircraft carrier in human history sets sail
At this time, Yudujin Mountain was very lively. There were various tents everywhere at the foot of the mountain. There were clusters in the east and clusters in the west. Countless Turkic warriors came in and out of the tents from time to time.
You can also see a certain Turkic man prostrating himself towards Yudujin Mountain with a pious look on his face.
Such a grand occasion can probably only be compared to the annual sacrifice to the "Xian Cave", which is the cave where the wolf that raised their ancestors lived in the legend of the Turks.
"Two days ago, when the great shaman was praying for enlightenment from the earth god Burden Ningli on the sacred mountain, he saw a snow-white scene..."
Jieli Khan sat in a golden tent at the foot of Yudujin Mountain and spoke slowly to the leaders of the other Turkic tribes in the tent.
"Buden Ningli's meaning is very clear. Today's winter will be extremely cold, and the snow will be heavier than in previous years! If we don't do anything, I'm afraid many people will freeze to death!"
"No! We can't let our people wait to die in vain!"
A young man wearing a Hufu with a lapel brocade robe and a gold-inlaid and jade-embedded quilt around his waist. Except for the braided hair on the back of his head, he looked more like a Han than a Turk. He stood up excitedly.
Said loudly.
"Still the old rules, Khan, you will take us south and ask the Han people to get some things to keep out the cold!"
After hearing what this young man said, the tribal leaders present nodded in agreement, and some impatient tribal leaders even asked Jieli Khan to allocate their hunting grounds.
"Okay! Everyone, please be quiet..."
After seeing that everyone present agreed with the idea of going south, Jieli Khan raised his hand and pressed it in the air.
"Since everyone wants to go south, let's go south!"
After hearing what Jieli Khan said, the Turks present looked at each other, with unconcealable excitement in their eyes.
After all, for this group of Turkic nobles, robbing Han people's territory every winter under the slogan of helping the people survive the winter has become their biggest source of wealth...
If you have no money, grab a TMD vote; if you have no clothes, grab a TMD vote; if you have no wife, you should still grab a TMD vote!
Just like the Han people cutting leeks, they cut one crop every year and it will grow back the next year.
"But now that the southern part of the Tang Dynasty has been pacified, and their strength has gradually recovered, if we continue to rush in as chaotically as in previous years, I'm afraid we will suffer a loss."
Jieli Khan stood up from his seat, raised his foot and drew a line on a sheepskin map in front of him.
"So I decided to send several tribes to attack Yinzhou, Xiazhou and Lingzhou with great fanfare, so that the Tang people thought we were going to enter from here, and then took advantage of them to mobilize their troops to Jingzhou and Qingzhou to guard against us...
"
With that said, Jieli Khan smoothly pulled out the scimitar from his waist, and stabbed it into a position in the middle of the sheepskin map with a swish.
"Our main force took advantage of the opportunity to break through Mayi City and rush into Bingzhou!"
"Khan uses his troops like a god..."
After hearing his words, the young Turkic man who was the first to stand up to support Jieli Khan immediately bowed to him with admiration and said loudly.
"Those Tang people probably never dreamed that we would do this!"
"Khan's approach is indeed very good..."
Among these noisy people, an older Turk said with some worry.
"However, those tribes that harassed Yinxia and Lingzhou may have to face the Tang army that far exceeds their own. The losses may be huge, and they may not be able to grab anything from the Tang people!"
"It doesn't matter!"
Jieli Khan waved his hand and said nonchalantly.
"These intruding tribes do not need to confront the Tang people head-on. After all, we have horses. If we are pressed, we can just avoid them. Of course, their harvest will definitely be less, but I can promise to use part of my deserved harvest for
Make up for their losses."
"Thank you Khan!"
After hearing this promise from Jieli Khan, the tribal leaders present immediately put their hands on their chests and bent down to salute him.
"Your justice is like the condensation of the earth god Borden!"
…
Just when the Turks began to gather at Dujin Mountain and prepare to go south to plunder, His Majesty Li Yuan was also discussing the news of the Turks going south with important officials in the Taiji Hall in Chang'an City.
"According to the spies' reports, the Turks have begun to gather towards Yudujin Mountain, and I believe they will move south soon..."
Li Yuan said slowly with a solemn look on his face.
"Erlang, how is the gathering of the Twelve Guards here?"
"Aye, since it is the busy time of farming now, it may take half a month for the twelve guards to assemble."
Li Shimin stood up from his own ranks and answered in a decent manner.
"However, Ha'er has already dispatched the guards who are on duty to help harvest grain on Tongzhou Road, so the Yulin Army should be able to gather in four to five days, and it will not affect our previous plans!"
"Um!"
Li Yuan nodded slightly, and then turned his attention to an old man standing not far behind Li Shimin.
"Zhang Qing, you are not young now. It is too hard to work hard on horseback. Otherwise, you should not go north this time..."
Having said this, His Majesty Li Yuan deliberately slowed down his speaking voice and comforted him softly.
"Zhang Qing, don't misunderstand me. I'm not grudged about my official position, I'm just worried about your health!"
"The sage's intention is known to all the old ministers!"
After hearing His Majesty Li Yuan's words, the old man came out and prostrated himself with tears of gratitude.
"But I have been depressed for half my life, and when I am lucky enough to meet Mingshi, I will do my best even if my body is shattered to pieces!"
"That's fine!"
Li Yuan sighed and said softly soothingly.
"Since you insist on doing this, Zhang Qing, then I can only obey you..."
"Thank you saint!"
The old man lowered his head and kowtowed to the ground again.
"I will definitely take off Jieli Khan's head and present it to you!"
"General Zhang..."
As soon as the old man finished speaking, he heard the concerned voice of King Qin Li Shimin coming from the side.
"The Turks are coming fiercely. You just have to follow your previous plan and hold them back from going south. Don't fight with them in the field. Otherwise, it will affect the court's plan in a small way, but it will cause you to lose troops and generals in a big way!"
"Hmph! Please forgive me but I can't agree to this..."
The old man looked at the young and excessive Qin King Li Shimin next to him and snorted hard.
"The so-called general will not accept your orders. The battlefield is complex and complex, and the opportunity to fight is fleeting. How can we follow the method of talking about war on paper... King Qin, you have also fought several battles. Do you want me to teach you even this matter?"
?"
Faced with the old man's obvious remarks, Li Shimin didn't look angry at all, but spoke more sincerely.
"General Zhang, in the final analysis, the so-called use of troops depends on the strength of both sides. The Turks are going south this time, and there are hundreds of thousands of people who can control the strings. General, the Yulin army you lead is only tens of thousands, and the number is comparable.
The comparison is worlds apart. If there is any loss in rushing into battle, Aye will also be worried about you..."
"yes!"
His Majesty Li Yuan also followed Li Shimin's words and said.
"Zhang Qing, you and I have been friends for many years. I still want to live in a few more years where we, the king and the ministers, can get along with each other. You must take care of yourself!"
"Saint, don't worry!"
The old man patted his chest and said generously.
"As a veteran, I know what to do and what not to do throughout my life as a soldier..."
“It’s good to have a few!”
Seeing the old man's majestic and high-spirited appearance, Li Yuan smiled with some relief.
"Then I'll be waiting for your good news, Zhang Qing..."
Seeing that the persuasion was ineffective, Li Shimin could only lower his head silently and retreated to his seat. But no one saw that the corners of Li Shimin's mouth were slightly raised as he lowered his head.
…
Feitian Castle slowly accelerated, left the sky above Chang'an City, and drove away staggeringly in the southwest direction.
Kong Qing tapped his toes on the Gu Chen Sword, with his big sleeves fluttering, standing in the air, looking at the disappearing back of Feitian Castle, with a rare look of excitement and satisfaction on his face.
After all, the city in the clouds that he just flew away was a stunning work that he combined two lifetimes of knowledge and painstaking efforts to create. It can be called the perfect combination of science and magic, and an indispensable and colorful stroke in the history of the development of the world.
.
"In the seventh year of Wude, the first aircraft carrier in human history... the flying fortress set sail in Chang'an City. This flying fortress was personally made by Gao Daoqing Weizi, the head of the Quanzhen sect! It is precisely because of it that I
China has just begun the process of unifying the world..."
It’s exciting just thinking about it!
"Lang Jun is really still a child..."
At the edge of Yunzhong City, Mrs. Shangyuan, who had changed into a green dress, sat side by side with Mrs. Fan and Miss Yunying, her six little feet dangling in the air, not caring at all that tens of thousands of meters of ground were beneath their feet.
high altitude.
"I made such a toy with my own hands, and it made him so happy!"
"Men are very playful!"
Mrs. Fan also had a smile on her face, as if she was remembering what she had done before.
"I still remember the time when Liu Lang first learned how to drive away animals. He excitedly controlled a willow tree and jumped up and down in the yard. He played for more than ten hours and refused to stop... As a good wife
, at this time, Shangyuan, you have to be more tolerant of him."
After hearing Mrs. Fan's words, Madam Yunying on the side silently raised her head and glanced at her sister.
If she remembered correctly, the willow tree controlled by her brother-in-law was severely beaten by a poplar tree controlled by her sister, forcing her to escape over the wall and go to the wild to make a living...
Is this called tolerance?
Before the shadow of the Feikong Castle in the distance completely disappeared, the searching fox Erniang suddenly ran out of Yunzhong City with a panicked look on her face and shouted loudly towards Kong Qing.
"My lord, it's not good! Madam Song, the Winged Fire Snake, was injured by someone. Now Lord Huodexing is furious and wants to find someone to fight for!"
