Chapter 489 The Power of Tang Warships

The King of Baekje was also so frightened that he could not speak. It was actually very normal for the two of them to have such expressions. Li Xiang once saw that the warships of the Tang Dynasty navy were much smaller than this one. The navy of the two countries There was a gap between the division's warships and those of the Tang Dynasty, let alone the one in front of them.

Take the naval warships of the Silla Kingdom as an example. They only need about ten people on board, which is slightly larger than a fishing boat. Although they also want to build huge warships, they have no choice but to have insufficient technical reserves and limited land area. It's too small, and there are only a few thick logs. Can you expect them to build a larger warship?

"This is the smallest ship among our navy. The larger ships are all trained at home. I didn't let them come over. I sent a signal to them and asked them to practice it and show it to the two kings."

Seeing the dumbfounded look of the two men, Li Xiang immediately went over to give them more strength, letting them know that our naval warship was not just a piece of cake. In addition to being relatively large, its attack power was also quite powerful.

The two of them could see very clearly. People on the shore began to wave small red flags in their hands. They couldn't see clearly what was going on on the ship in the distance, but someone next to them was holding a long tube-shaped thing to look at, and then reported it to Li Xiang. , maybe that long tube-shaped thing can clearly see the situation on the ship, this may be another new thing of Datang.

Because it took time for the naval warship to turn around, the three people found an open area with a clear view. The travel of nobles was different from that of ordinary people. When they came to this open area, various tables and chairs had been set up, and even the There are also a variety of snacks. This is the benefit of being a noble. No matter where you want to rest, it will be like home.

When the naval warships turned around, there were several naval warships right in front of them, which allowed the two people to take a closer look. Both of them were almost silent at the moment, and they were afraid of breathing. Li Xiang was unhappy because he was breathing heavily.

Li Xiang looked at the cautious look of these two people and knew that they had basically succeeded. As for the occupation of their southern island, it is estimated that these two people would not have any opinions. The artillery has not been fired yet. After the artillery fire, these two people Like Tuyuhun Khan, it's time to know where his position is.

boom…

The sound of cannon fire came over. If it had been close, of course it would be so shocking that I would cover my ears. But now that I am far away, I can only hear a very subtle sound, but I can also see white smoke coming out of the cannon muzzle on the ship. Looking at the rocks that the artillery shells attacked, they were already scattered in all directions. In this era, gunpowder had not yet been invented, so the artillery performance was like a god coming down from the earth. In their view, this was definitely not something ordinary people could have, even if This is the level of Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals.

The two kings stared into the distance with their mouths open. Their expressions were as ugly as they could be. Li Xiang did not disturb these two kings, and let you have a good experience. If you do not obey the rule of the Tang Dynasty, then these cannonballs will It will hit your country. I don’t know how long your country can last.

Li Xiang understood a truth very well. Although artillery was powerful, there was no need to really hit them on the head. If it really hit their heads, it would be equivalent to adding more chaos to the Tang Dynasty. There is no good in saying that, it is better to scare them now, just like the nuclear weapons in the 21st century, to let you know that the weapons in our hands are powerful, then you will carry out our orders.

"It's... it's really awesome. This is the first time I've seen this kind of weapon. I wonder how many such warships there are in the Tang Dynasty?"

The King of Silla boldly said that in fact, the Tang Dynasty did not need many such warships. The dozen or so ships in front of him could basically defeat the navies of the two countries.

"Currently there are more than seventy ships, but they will definitely increase gradually in the future. Datang's eyes are not only on land, but also on the sea. It is also the goal that Datang wants to conquer. From now on, you will follow Datang closely. , you will not be short of any benefits you deserve.”

Li Xiang made a wave of pua at the right time. The two guys nodded their heads like chickens eating rice. Of course, what were they thinking in their hearts? It is impossible for Li Xiang to dig out people's hearts and look at them, but as long as these two people's heads are fine, they will never stand against Datang.

"Haigatutong."

Li Xiang called his name in the distance, and soon a cavalryman came from a distance. This man was obviously not a Han. Judging from some clues on his face, he should be a man from the grassland.

"Let me introduce to you. This person is from Tyuhun or a little king of a tribe in Tyuhun. He is currently following my army and is now the commander of 1,500 people. You go back and tell the people in your country that as long as If he has this ability, anyone can gain a foothold in the Tang army."

When Li Xiang said this, the two of them were even more surprised. They originally thought that the Tang army would not want outsiders. Even if there were outsiders, they could only follow as a second-line army. They did not expect that Li Xiang would really dare to appoint them. The talented foreigners are already much stronger than them just because of their ambition.

In fact, Li Xiang is not that strong-minded. He just placed system soldiers around this person. The loyalty of the system soldiers to him is unquestionable. Following these foreign generals twenty-four hours a day, he can use these With the talents of foreign generals, and not worrying about their rebellion, why not do it for Li Xiang?

The two of them had heard about Tuyuhun a long time ago, and they also knew that Tuyuhun was the first group of people to follow the Tang Dynasty. Although the Tang Dynasty was regarded as the suzerain state by the whole world, their relationship was not as good as that of Tuyuhun, because Tuyuhun was taken back by Li Xiang. As a vassal state, treatment was different from that of other countries. Of course, Tuyuhun also had the least autonomy.

Li Xiang didn't care about the former vassal states, because they only had a reputation. In fact, those countries did not obey the orders of the Tang Dynasty. When the orders of the Tang Dynasty were issued, they would be like Silla and Baekje, and they would benefit their own nature. Listen, anything that is not good for you will be passed directly. Li Xiang will re-establish a vassal state system in the future.

"I am willing to donate all the naval docks of Baekje, and I sincerely ask the Navy of the Tang Dynasty to protect the safety of our Baekje."

The King of Baekje was the first to react and quickly knelt on one knee in front of Li Xiang. This etiquette was actually beyond the limit. Only Li Shimin had such etiquette...
