I, the military god of the Tang Dynasty, have risen since I destroyed the Turks

Chapter 626: Attack on Funan
"It's been almost a year, you're willing to come back."

"How is it? After we conquer Japan this time, they will behave themselves for a while, right?" Li Chengqian smiled and asked Li Zheng.

"Stay in Chang'an for a month or two." Li Zheng smiled.

"Only stay for one or two months? Which country are you planning to attack?" Li Chengqian looked at him in surprise.

"There are so many countries in the West that can take action."

"but."

"This time is different from the way we dealt with the Japanese. I will use the same method as we did with the Shi Khanate in Hunbei, conquering their capital and forcing them to surrender."

"Turn all the Western countries into colonies of our Tang Dynasty."

"Plunder the world's wealth for the prosperity of our Tang Dynasty." Li Zheng smiled, with strong ambition in his eyes.

After dealing with Japan, Li Zheng's biggest hindrance was also resolved. After that, he could naturally conquer without any scruples.

In the world of the previous life, Yanhuang had been plundered by those Western foreign races. Now, Li Zheng will lead the Tang Dynasty to plunder them.

Let them become colonies of the Tang Dynasty.

“The world is so big.”

"Can our Tang Dynasty really control it?"

Li Chengqian said with an indescribable emotion.

As the former crown prince of the Tang Dynasty and current regent, he naturally has some vision.

The world is too big. Even if the Tang Dynasty temporarily takes control, it is too far away from the capital, and the news is too far away.

This is not conducive to the control of the Tang Dynasty.

“I can control it.”

Li Zheng said very firmly.

"Why are you so sure?"

"Indeed, under your training, the army of our Great Tang is now the best in the world. However, the world is too big, there are too many uncertain factors, and it is not convenient to convey information. For example, it takes at least half a month to convey an order from the capital to the southernmost part of our Great Tang. It takes too much time."

"In the future, the further and larger territories will be even more difficult to control."

"No matter how large the territory is, it will eventually turn into a disaster if it is not well controlled." Li Chengqian said meaningfully.

Hear this.

Li Zheng smiled, "Yes, if our Tang Dynasty remains like this, we will indeed be unable to control our territory and the world. But today I will give Kaiji two things. As long as the Ministry of Industry can understand and research them, our Tang Dynasty will no longer have territory that it cannot control."

“Even if we are thousands or tens of thousands of miles apart, we can convey the message in an instant.”

Li Chengqian was stunned when he heard this: "What is so magical?"

"The telegraph, but it has not been developed yet."

"When it is truly born, you will know how magical it is." Li Zheng smiled.

The electricity encyclopedia records not only the use of electricity, but also many electricity-related technological products.

For example, the telegraph was among them, and besides that, there were also the phonograph, all those things that were at the beginning of the industrial age.

otherwise.

After getting these two things, Li Zheng was very happy.

Because the results of opening these two Xuan-level treasure chests were so good, they were definitely a real boost to the Tang Dynasty.

"real or fake?"

"From thousands of miles away, the order can be conveyed instantly?" Li Chengqian looked incredulous.

"Haha."

"Anyway, you'll understand it when it's done."

"Now anything I say is false."

Li Zheng laughed out loud.

After all, compared with the Shenwu cannon, this telegraph is definitely a product that truly transcends this era. Just like the train, when it was first born, it subverted the entire Tang Dynasty. If the telegraph appeared, it would naturally be the same.

"Hearing you say that, I am looking forward to it." "However, if you want to conquer the Western countries, don't you want to deal with Funan, Siam and other countries?"

"Deal with them. With the outlet to the sea where they are, it will be easier for the navy to go on an expedition," said Li Zheng.

"Brother, I have been commanding troops for so many years, and you have thought of this. How could I not have thought of this?"

Li Zheng looked at Li Chengqian jokingly.

"Wait, there was a memorial yesterday from Yunnan requesting the mobilization of food and fodder for an army of 300,000 for a year. Could it be you?" Li Chengqian suddenly came back to his senses.

"I have ordered Li Daozong to lead 300,000 troops from Jiaozhi Prefecture to march to Funan. To resolve this, it is Siam's turn."

"One by one. When the war begins, I will set out."

"Including the time for dispatching food and fodder, it's exactly one or two months." Li Zheng smiled.

"It's up to you. Anyway, you are already wild at heart." Li Chengqian said with some annoyance.

Time flies.

in a blink.

Two months have passed.

A border pass of Funan Kingdom.

The 100,000-strong vanguard army, led by Li Daozon, the father-in-law of the current Tang emperor, has already reached this border pass.

The defeated soldiers' divine cannons were already aimed at the border pass of Funan.

An army of one hundred thousand soldiers is at the gate of the city.

only.

Now the Tang army has not yet moved and is waiting.

Li Daozon rode on a war horse, standing beside the Shenwu cannon, staring at the Funan city gate in front of him, waiting quietly.

Under the gaze of Li Dao Zong.

The city gates were opened directly at the border of Funan.

A man in Funan official uniform ran over quickly, holding a book in his hand, and a group of servants surrounded him.

"General Li, please don't do anything. I am here to make a report under the king's order. Please lead me to the emperor."

When the Funan official arrived, he ran to Li Daozon in great panic.

"I have been glaring at you for half an hour. You are lucky. If another half an hour had passed, my Tang Dynasty would have sent troops to attack." Li Daozon said coldly.

Hear the words.

The Funan officials broke out in cold sweat and trembled all over.

Their Funan Kingdom is just a small country. If the Tang Dynasty really attacks, these 100,000 vanguard troops will be enough to solve the problem. Their small country is simply unable to resist. What's more, the Tang Dynasty has 300,000 border troops, and these 100,000 are just vanguards.

"Kun'er."

Li Dao Zong spoke.

The end will be here."

A handsome and upright general immediately came to Li Daozon.

He is Li Kun, the third son of Li Daozon.

In history, Li Kun died young, and Li Zheng was naturally aware of this. With him around, there was no way he would let Li Kun die.

After ascending the throne.

Li Zheng also specially transferred Li Kun to Chang'an and personally taught him martial arts. Now his physical fitness is not bad and he has reached the innate realm.

and.

After Li Zheng ascended the throne, the basic martial arts skills began to be taught in the army. After streamlining the Tang army, the entire army practiced martial arts.

However, practicing martial arts requires a lot of resources. Most of the soldiers are in the acquired realm, basically around the third level.

As for Li Kun, as the current emperor's brother-in-law and true confidant, he naturally has access to a lot of resources. Now he has already reached the third level of innate realm.
