Chapter 2983 Let Your Majesty celebrate with your crown
After Zhao Kun handed the letter to His Majesty, he stepped aside. Ma Zhou tilted his head curiously. Although it was not easy to peek at the content of the letter, but by admiring the change in His Majesty's expression when he read the letter, he could roughly tell whether it was a good thing or not.
bad thing.
Ma Zhou, a micro-expression expert, quickly noticed that His Majesty's eyes suddenly lit up and he burst into laughter.
"Ouch... Come on, please go and tell Li Lao Aiqing that his second son has returned to Datang safely and is in Liaodong City."
Zhao Kun heard this and quickly ordered his men to inform the Tang Army God who was currently in the rear army.
Li Shimin glanced around and happened to see Ma Zhou, Li Daozong and others stretching their necks to look this way.
"Dear gentlemen, do you know that that boy actually sailed across thousands of miles of ocean to the continent where the survivors of the Yin Shang Dynasty went in the past?"
"Moreover, he also brought back the descendants of the Yin Shang survivors. He also brought back some properties in the Liaodong City that were named the Yin Shang Continent by Cheng Sanlang."
As soon as they heard the words Cheng Sanlang, everyone suddenly felt confused again.
"real or fake?"
"It has something to do with Cheng Sanlang, I think it must be true..."
"The second son of Li Weigong's family is also a very hard-working master. He is always up and down, but he can be considered promising."
"Yes, first we went to Champa and got the Champa rice that is harvested three times a year. Then we went to the far west and got such a horse breed... Look at these improvements under us.
The ride I passed was also thanks to that boy."
"I just don't know what kind of treasures that kid can get this time when he goes to the Yin Shang Continent. The first time he got food, the second time he got something to ride on. Could it be that this time, what he got was clothes?
"
Li Shimin ignored the gossip of the important civil and military officials of the Tang Dynasty and continued to read the letter.
In the letter, Cheng Sanlang said in a very subtle way that Li Dezhai brought back a large number of good treasures that benefited the country and the people from the Yin Shang Continent.
Since it has just been delivered, in order to verify whether these good treasures are really beneficial to the country and the people.
He is rushing to plant and it is expected to wait until the end of autumn to harvest.
Therefore, I hope that my father-in-law can march and fight and ride on horseback in peace for now. When the time comes, he can appreciate these wonderful treasures that can make the emperors and ministers of the Tang Dynasty celebrate with great joy.
"???" Seeing this, Li Shimin's face darkened and his eyelids twitched wildly.
This little bastard, how do you use an adjective? He is so happy that he is so happy...
Ma Zhou, who was on the side, saw the smile on His Majesty's face gradually stiffen, and in the end he was obviously a little frustrated.
Even if you say something with your mouth, it is definitely not a good thing anyway. It seems that that boy Cheng Sanlang has done some evil thing to offend His Majesty.
However, His Majesty did not pay attention to the side, but continued to study carefully, and soon saw that Cheng Sanlang proposed another matter.
This guy complained quite blatantly that fewer and fewer prisoners of war were being captured by the Tang Dynasty's elite operations.
This gave him, a host who was working conscientiously on the construction and development of Liaodong, a headache.
I hope that my father-in-law and the elders of the Tang Dynasty martial arts can carry forward the spirit of hard work and simplicity, and are not afraid of hardships and obstacles.
We must seize prisoners of war conscientiously and work hard to provide services for the human resources reserve of the Tang Dynasty and Liaodong infrastructure.
"What the hell is this?" Li Shimin looked at the words in the letter that seemed to be wrong.
The choice of words and sentences that made people feel both teeth hurt made Li Shimin couldn't help but think of the past. It seemed that this boy had never written a letter directly to him, and most of the time it was Yingguo Leiji's biological son Li Ke who spoke for him.
[To be honest, I have been using Yeguo to read and catch up on books recently. I can switch sources and read aloud with many sounds. www. Android and Apple are available.]
It seems that Yingguo Leiji's own son is quite talented. He at least knows how to turn Cheng Sanlang's weird words and sentences into words that are at least pleasing to the eyes and comfortable for people to read.
Ma Zhou, who was already filled with questions, heard His Majesty's voice and quickly asked.
"Your Majesty, could it be that Cheng Sanlang encountered something difficult in Liaodong?"
"That's not true. Oh, by the way... He feels that our army has been too lazy in attacking the city and fortifying the stronghold during this period. After being captured, there were many fewer prisoners of war escorted to Liaodong City."
"Ah...is this kid crazy?" Ma Zhou's eyes suddenly widened to the extreme and he murmured something.
"Your Majesty, since we left Liaodong City, we have fought fierce battles, destroyed the city twelve times, and captured more than thirty thousand enemies.
In addition, the number of prisoners of war entrusted to him before has reached nearly 150,000, and he still feels that it is not enough?"
"I also feel that something is wrong. It has been a long time since we set out on the expedition. At the beginning, I only left him 5,000 elite soldiers of the Tang Dynasty and 20,000 Hu soldiers."
"Even if those prisoners of war have no weapons, if there is any sudden change, just with the few men and horses under his hands..."
Li Shimin took a breath with toothache, and couldn't help feeling a little regretful in his heart. Was he being too careless by placing this kid in the rear?
This boy is very capable. Of course I will not deny this. But the problem is that the prisoners of war in the rear have now reached an extremely dangerous level.
He is actually still chattering here, asking me to get more manpower for him.
What are you thinking about? Aren't you afraid of ruining serious things?
#####
"Your Majesty, I would like to go to Liaodong City to see what the situation is like there. I would like your Majesty's permission."
Ma Zhou looked a little worried and twirled his beard for a long time before bowing to Li Shimin.
"I have placed Cheng Sanlang in Liaodong. I am very assured of his ability. In addition, military supplies have always been supplied on time and in quantity, so I did not ask too many questions."
"But now that the boy has become the governor, he will have to wait for nearly two months, so..."
Li Shimin glanced at all the civil and military personnel, and finally his eyes fell on Ma Zhou.
"Li Lao Aiqing's second son has returned from a journey of thousands of miles across the ocean and has arrived in Liaodong. I'd like you, Ma Qing, and Li Lao Aiqing to go to Liaodong City."
"Let's see what that boy Cheng Sanlang has done during this period and whether he has handled it appropriately."
"Your Majesty, don't worry. If anything happens, I will report it to you in time and ask your Majesty to make a decision."
Watching Ma Zhou take the order and leave, Li Shimin looked at Bai Pukou City in the distance, thinking that by this time, Na Yuan Gaisuwen should have already evacuated.
I just don't know if the defender of Baibokou City will honestly open the city and ask for surrender after receiving the letter of surrender.
If you still want to hold on with a fortified city, haha... the flying thunder cannons and artillery in the Tang army are really not vegetarian.
Thinking of this, Li Shimin turned his head and looked at the artillery position over there.
