Chapter 134: The boat is not enough You must know that last year was indeed the most glorious year of the Tang Dynasty, the southern conquest and the northern war, invincible, dozens of countries destroyed, throughout the world for thousands of years, no dynasty has been as brilliant as the Tang Dynasty last year.
But behind the brilliance there are also some hidden crises - some countries bordering Datang but have not been destroyed, but they were completely frightened by Datang's invincible posture last year.
And when Datang saw that the enemy was coming with so many troops, he naturally didn't dare to be careless, and he also mobilized heavy troops to display on the border, always guarding against the frightened enemy suddenly convulsive and raiding Datang.
Now Datang can be said to be surrounded by enemies on all sides, almost all the available forces in the country have been withdrawn, these 100,000 troops are really the only reserves in Datang, except for a little mobile force in Chang'an City, the rest is the local garrison, which cannot be used.
Therefore, for Li Zhen, the 100,000 army is not urgently needed for him, but the imperial court needs these 100,000 people to support the field.
It's just that Li Shimin insisted, and Li Zhen had no choice but to accept it, but there were too many 100,000 people, and the waterway would definitely not work, so they could only use Chang'an to Shuzhong to tell the highway to march, and then divide the troops into five routes, from different routes, across the 100,000 mountains to Lingnan, so that they could meet Li Zhen.
However, the mountain road in the 100,000 mountains is difficult and difficult to travel, this section of the journey takes too long, according to Li Zhen's estimate, when the Tianzhu war is over, these 100,000 people may not be able to arrive, and when they can reach Lingnan, it is already considered their speed.
When Li Zhen came, the sea ship he took was still docked at the port of Hangzhou, but with the addition of 40,000 young soldiers, the number of ships was obviously insufficient, and even Wu Bingjun, the agent of Hangzhou, personally came forward to collect it, and in seven days, he only collected 100 large and small sea ships, plus 300 ships of Li Zhen's fleet, an average of about 100 people can sit on a ship, which can also transport 40,000 people - and Li Zhen alone is the technical craftsmen he brought, more than 10,000, plus the first batch of nearly 10,000 young soldiers, That's already half of the volume.
In other words, the second batch of 40,000 boys' troops can only have half of them with the boat at most, and the remaining 20,000 people can only run to the ground.
"It shouldn't be."
Fang Yiai walked back and forth, muttering: "Hangzhou is an old port, there should not be too few sea ships here, and the history of the use of Hangzhou port should be the longest among all the ports in Datang." ” "It's quite strange, I already calculated before I set off, the ship in Hangzhou Port is enough for our people."
Liu Renliang also said in a deep voice, he can also be said to be high-spirited at this time, because he led the fleet to brave the hardships and dangers, forged ahead bravely, and found such an overseas territory as Luzon for the Tang Dynasty, so his reward was also quite high, Li Shimin directly gave him the title of founding marquis, and Xue Rengui was on a par, and the rewards were innumerable, if it weren't for the size of the navy there, the governor of the capital was already the limit, and then the marshal of the navy, Li Shimin even wanted to promote his official to three or five levels.
"It's a little weird."
Xue Rengui looked at Li Zhen, who had been bowing his head and contemplating, and said, "Your Highness, do you have any ideas?"
” "Do you remember?"
Li Zhen raised her head and said thoughtfully: "When we went back to Chang'an, we were also here, and we were asked for trouble and chartered all the ships out in advance?"
” "My subordinates have thought about it, but it's not right."
Xue Rengui still frowned deeply: "Hasn't Wu Zhaolong, the culprit of that time, been arrested?"
And according to Wu Tingshi's report, this person has been beheaded by the Autumn Queen, even if he is still alive, where does he have the energy to do this?
” Li Zhen asked rhetorically: "But what if the opponent is not him, and people just borrow his methods?"
” "...... this," no one could answer.
"These damn bugs."
Fang Yiai suddenly became angry: "I have been hiding in the dark and using small means, and I have the ability to come out and compete with Lao Tzu in a bright and bright way." ” Du He snorted: "What's the use of you shouting here?
Since they are bed bugs, they can only hide underground, where do they dare to come out?
” "Damn."
Li Zhen interrupted: "Forget it, you don't have to worry about this matter, I have already handed it over to someone else to deal with." ” "Then Your Highness, what about our army?"
Du He asked, "Haven't we waited here for so many days just to wait for the Young Army?"
Is it time to let them walk from the ground on their own?
” As a newcomer, when the seniors spoke, Luo Lin had never spoken before, but at this time, he suddenly exclaimed: "I kind of understand the other party's purpose." ” "What?"
Fang Yiai was overjoyed, and hurriedly urged: "Good brother, tell me quickly, why?"
” Luo Lin ignored Fang Yiai, but asked Li Zhen: "Your Highness, do you remember what you said to Locke when we went to arrest Locke some time ago?"
” "Where am I going to remember this?"
Li Zhen complained that he had a lot of things to say to Locke that time, and he wrote several chapters just by writing, where did he go to remember?
"But the subordinates remember."
"Remember, just say yes."
Fang Yiai urged, in order to paralyze Locke and them, Li Zhen not only did not bring the first batch of young soldiers, but also did not even bring these henchmen, so they didn't know what happened that day, and they could only deduce a little clue from the various signs behind.
But no one knows what the specific situation is, because Li Shimin and Li Zhen gave a gag order.
However, in the face of Fang Yiai's questioning, Luo Lin still didn't like him, and continued to ask Li Zhendao: "Does Your Highness remember?"
When Locke asked His Highness where we came from, how did His Highness answer?
” The "we" in Luo Lin's mouth naturally does not refer to the people present, but to the young army represented by him.
"I remember what I said ......"
Li Zhen seemed to remember something: "I seem to ......
I don't remember very much, I seem to be saying......
What's going on?
” "Oh, my highness, if you don't know, don't worry about it, okay?

Do you know how underwhelmed you are right now?
"Everyone's hearts were hung up and lowered by him, and then hung up and put down again......
That feeling is really apprehensive - if it wasn't Li Zhen who spoke, but someone else, I was afraid that I would have been pulled out by everyone and beaten in that corner.
