Chapter 10: Everyone Wants Me to Die "There will be."
Li Zhen comforted, of course, this is just comfort, because he doesn't even believe it.
Of course, larger tonnage battleships need to be built, but wooden steam battleships are destined to be eliminated after all, so Li Zhen only plans to build up to five or six thousand tons at most, and more than 10,000 tons are completely unnecessary, even five or six thousand tons of battleships will not build too much, and a naval district may not necessarily be able to divide one equally.
Because the tonnage of the battleship is proportional to the price, every time the displacement of the battleship increases by a tonnage, the cost is a geometric multiple of the general upward trend - according to statistics, in the later generations of Western powers, an average first-class battleship (such as the Victory, displacement of 3,500 tons) cost as much as 100,000 pounds, and those battleships with tonnage far exceeding the first-class battleships (such as the Holy Trinity and Valmy, the tonnage of which exceeds 5,000 tons) is even more sky-high.
It was almost three times more than the size of a first-class battleship.
Li Zhen has this money, it is better to add a few more battleship formations to the navy, or even simply invest in the shipyard, so that they can speed up the research of steel battleships.
The reason why Cheng Chuliang is so flickering is mainly to give him a lot of energy, as for the future - when the steel battleship is built, it is estimated that everyone's eyes are on the steel battleship, who cares what you have said?
Even if Cheng Chuliang still remembers it in the future, he still plans to ask Li Zhen for it, but Li Zhen just says, 'Do you want a steel battleship or a 10,000-ton wooden battleship?'
You can completely shut him up - after all, although the wooden battleship is majestic, the combat effectiveness of the steel battleship is stronger, if the sea is in a couplet, a most ordinary steel battleship can completely blast more than ten wooden battleships.
"Great, Your Highness, you must leave one for me, no, the first one must be mine."
Cheng Chuliang said very excitedly: "Don't say anything else, let's just say that the proposal to move the steam engine to the warship was put forward by me, and with this merit, Your Highness, you can't treat me badly." ” Li Zhen was amused by Cheng Chuliang: "Hahaha......
Then it depends on whether your escort this time is not powerful, if you can satisfy the palace, not to mention the first one that can be given to you, even if the palace gives you an additional steam battleship, what's the matter?
” Cheng Chuliang was overjoyed, patted his chest and promised: "Your Highness, don't worry, your command, the fleet is the demon king of the sea, the evil is easy to dispel, and all the demons surrender, where does anyone dare to trouble us?"
To be honest, this time I was purely planning to travel for free, and I couldn't have any enemies at all. ” "Not necessarily."
Li Zhen didn't say this, but she knew very well in her heart that her inspection this time might not be as smooth as Cheng Chuliang expected.
After all, the purpose of his inspection this time was not hidden, and most people knew very well that after this last layout adjustment, they would really leave Lingnan and return to Chang'an to get back their own position - that is, to ascend the throne.
And in this world, there are countless people who don't want to put themselves on the throne, after all, there are too many enemies they have made over the years.
In addition to thinking about the throne in my heart, in addition to the brothers who have been demons in Chang'an, Buddhism, Confucianism, Shijia, Chengjianxi, Neighboring States, Nanyang and Tianzhu have been secretly resisting the nobles who tried to restore the country and the Brahmanism declared a cult by the Tang Dynasty after the destruction of the country.
The reason why Buddhism wants to die is very simple, not to mention that there are contradictions between the two sides themselves, let's just say that they were put together by themselves five years ago, which led to the invasion of Tianzhu Buddhism.
This has led to the fact that even until now, the Tang Buddhism and Tianzhu Buddhism have been pinching each other, and the two sides have been fighting endlessly and have fallen into internal scuffles.
However, while Taoism was sitting on the mountain to watch the tiger fight, the fisherman profited and snatched a large number of believers from the hands of Buddhism, coupled with the spread of Taoism, not only Tianzhu and Nanyang, but even the Western Regions, which was a part of the Buddhism's own land, was captured by Taoism, resulting in a great increase in Taoist power.
There are also some Taoist disciples who are not afraid of death and even went to Dashi Persia to preach, and they have achieved good results, and they have won a large number of believers in the mouth of Islam and gained a firm foothold in Persia and other places - of course, among them, the Tingfeng mercenary group, which has been active in the west of the Western Regions, has also made great efforts and helped Taoism a lot.
Because of the great prosperity of Taoism, coupled with the infighting of Buddhism, Taoism actually became the first sect of the Tang Dynasty, completely suppressing Buddhism, which made Buddhism hate Li Zhen very much, they naturally did not want Li Zhen to return to Chang'an alive, otherwise he would inherit the throne, then the last short board on Li Zhen would be completely filled, he really wanted Dapeng to spread his wings, soar into the sky, and no one could balance him anymore, and Buddhism would really be trampled under the feet of Taoism.
The reason why Confucianism wanted to kill Li Zhen is even simpler, looking at what Li Zhen has done over the years, almost nothing is in line with Confucian scriptures (whether it is heavy on commerce, belligerence, and penchant for killing, all of which are contrary to Confucian transactions).
Coupled with his contempt for Confucianism and his support for the rest of the hundred schools of thought, there are even many disciples of the hundred schools under his command, and some of the almost extinct hundred schools that have been suppressed by Confucianism actually show signs of resurgence.
Except for some of the Confucian disciples around Li Zhen who have special skills (such as Wen Xueling's geological exploration skills), the rest are not very good, and most of them are thrown by Li Zhen in some idle positions......
This has made Confucianism aware of the crisis - once Li Zhen really succeeds to the throne, then he is very likely to really support the hundred schools, and at the same time suppress or even directly abandon Confucianism, which is absolutely harmful to the development of Confucianism, and the best way to put an end to this situation is to kill Li Zhen, and then support an emperor who respects Confucianism to ascend the throne, at least to choose a benevolent emperor to ascend the throne, and even they already have a suitable candidate.
Not to mention the family, since Li Zhen came to this world, he has been fighting wits and courage with the family, and even suppressed the family for a period of time, but because of foreign wars, the imperial court has relaxed the supervision of the family, and now they actually took advantage of the development of the Age of Discovery, and actually made a lot of money according to the trend, and actually rose again.
After the rise, of course, they are not willing to relive the decline of a few years ago, so their choice will be the same as that of Confucianism, destroy Li Zhen, and then support a prince who is inclined to the family to ascend the throne, and they also have the right candidate.
Cheng Jianxi doesn't need to say much, not to mention that the two sides have had many feuds, and they have long been endless, not to mention that their ultimate goal itself is to overthrow the Tang Dynasty, and even after five years of recuperation, they have once again accumulated a more powerful force than before, as long as it is operated properly, it is still very possible to overthrow the Tang Dynasty.
But the prerequisite for accomplishing their goal is to let a waste, at least a mediocre person, ascend to the throne, and then make the Tang Dynasty completely scattered, and their actions will be smoother.
But with Li Zhen's mountain in front of him, and with such a strong person as Li Zhen, looking at all Li Shimin's sons, who is his opponent - when he was still a prince, he was able to build Lingnan into a prosperous place that everyone yearns for, and raise the pride of the Chinese people to the extreme.
So when he really becomes the emperor, with his strong character, he will inevitably be truly powerful in the world, at that time, the power in his hands is not comparable to a small prince, with his ability, give him another ten years, not to mention let the Tang Dynasty fall apart, I am afraid that the entire Datang will become a large Lingnan, when everyone is in their hearts, how can they do things?
It is simpler for neighboring countries to let Li Zhen die - Li Zhen once made a great wish in the past, not only to build Datang into the world's most prosperous holy land, but also to let Datang's iron hooves step on every inch of the world's mountains and rivers, and plant Datang's battle flag in every city in all countries in the world, so that the sun and the moon shine and the rivers go are all Datang territory, so that the sun will never set on the territory of Datang.
This is a great wish, and it is also a goal far beyond the Qin Emperor and Han Wu, once he is allowed to achieve it, then Datang really wants to achieve the great cause of world hegemon.
And judging from the current strength of Datang, it is very possible for them to achieve this goal - this is very scary.
But the monarch of any country would not want his country to become the territory of the enemy, and his people to become the slaves of the enemy, even the most mediocre monarch understands this.
But now that someone has initiated this ambition and has the ability to be qualified to realize it, the neighboring country that is destined to become the first goal of the Tang Dynasty certainly does not want this ambition to be implemented, and the way to stop this wish is also very simple - kill the person who made the ambition and is qualified to realize this wish, as for whether his successor will still do it in the future, then he can only pray to God.
Not to mention the last Avengers and Brahmin descendants, it is simply normal for Li Zhen to want to seek revenge on Li Zhen after destroying their country and cutting off their inheritance.
Especially Brahmanism, originally they developed well in Tianzhu, by the way, they beat Buddhism, rubbed Islam, and lived a small life not too comfortable.
Even if the Tang Dynasty called, they actually didn't pay much attention to it at the beginning, after all, they had also experienced such things, and the rulers of Tianzhu changed one stubble after another, and they didn't see how much suppression and loss they received.
At most, the new ruler supports Buddhism, Buddhism can develop, and they can fight against them, but even if they support Buddhism, the ruler is also very preferential to Brahmanism, at least they have never been suppressed, after all, Brahmanism is too deep-rooted in Tianzhu, this is a religion that appeared earlier than Buddhism, and even when Shakyamuni founded Buddhism, he borrowed a lot of Brahmanical teachings.
Originally, they thought that even if they were not used after the Tang Dynasty came, they would definitely not do anything to them, after all, their foundation among the people was too strong, so strong that any conqueror who came here had to take their opinions into account in order to stabilize his rule.
However, Datang didn't follow their script at all, or they didn't regard Tianzhu as their territory at all, all they needed was a raw material supply and a market, and naturally they didn't care what would happen on this land.
Therefore, when they were caught off guard, Datang's first order hit their death hole, directly beating them, and then before they could recover their strength, the second move declared them a cult, smashed their temples, and melted their idols.

In five years, the entire Brahmanism has encountered the greatest crisis since the founding of the religion, and in five years the entire Brahmanism has lost nearly seventy percent of its adherents.
But I have to say that the background of Brahmanism is indeed deep enough, even if they lose most of their strength, even if they are suppressed like rats crossing the street, even if they are devoured by other religions with a lot of Xu human flesh, but Brahmins are Brahmins, they still have an unparalleled heritage in Tianzhu natively, and they can organize a desperate assassination, if they cooperate with Li Zhen's other enemies, maybe Li Zhen will really die in Tianzhu - provided that Li Zhen is defenseless.
"Your Highness, shall we leave now?"
Cheng Chuliang naturally didn't know what Li Zhen was thinking at this time, and seeing that it was already in the middle of the day, he asked: "If we leave now, we can still reach Quanzhou before dark—by the way, Your Highness, you really are, why do you have to wait for your subordinates in Yuezhou?"
After you arrive in Yuezhou, let the Yuezhou fleet escort you to Quanzhou, and then your subordinates will take over, won't it be over?
” "If this palace doesn't believe you, do you think this escort mission will be handed over to you?"
Li Zhen replied lightly.
"What do you mean?"
Cheng Chuliang didn't understand for a while, but he quickly reacted and said in shock: "Your Highness, you mean that there are spies in the Yuezhou fleet?"
” "Don't make a noise about this kind of thing, this palace has already been investigated."
Li Zhen said in a deep voice, but these words shocked Cheng Chuliang even more - the reason is actually very simple, there is a spy in the fleet, it stands to reason that Liu Renliang must know no matter what, even if you don't use him but use your own people to investigate, at least let him know, right?
Otherwise, if the matter is leaked afterwards, there will be no mustard in Liu Renliang's heart?
But now listening to Li Zhen's tone, not only did he not inform Liu Renliang, but even the navy who knew about this matter was estimated to be the only one, what this means is self-evident, that is, Liu Renliang is no longer trusted by Li Zhen, and maybe even Liu Renliang is the spy......
It's horrible......
