Changsun Wuji is not very fat, but he is definitely fat.
There was a fat man wearing gorgeous silk, who was obviously a powerful person. Standing next to him was a young man wearing a very ordinary crew-neck shirt. Although another middle-aged man was also wearing silk, his appearance did not look like that of a powerful person.
Therefore, King Sanfoqi's analysis is that Changsun Wuji is the biggest big shot here.
And the young man in the crew-neck shirt is a low-level follower.
No matter how you look at middle-aged people, they are all high-level followers.
Therefore, King Srivijaya pounced on Changsun Wuji. He at least wanted to understand why he wanted to attack his country.
The shafts of two halberds pressed King Srivijaya to the ground, and a long knife was inserted in front of his face.
Li Yuanxing did not look back. He did not believe that someone could attack his back under the protection of the loyal guards. With just a slight gesture, the King of Srivijaya was lifted to the side of the ship.
Li Yuanxing did not go to see the King of Srivijaya, but just looked at Palembang under the artillery fire.
There was no pressure from fighting or any resistance to attack. Under the powerful military power of the Tang Dynasty, this small country that had just emerged from primitive society and was still in the primary stage in terms of social civilization and social structure, under the powerful
Under attack, there was no ability to resist at all.
Li Yuanxing slowly closed his eyes and walked towards the cabin with his hands behind his back.
"Go on, if the civilians here don't resist, don't harass the ordinary people. As for the nobles and so on, you can take care of it yourself. I'm tired, don't bother me if there is nothing important. Also, about the solution here
, come get it after the battle is over!"
After Li Yuanxing finished speaking, he left.
King Srivijaya did not even look at Li Yuanxing, because he did not believe that such a young man could have such a high status on this big ship.
Palembang was captured, and the Srivijaya Palace became the spoils of war for the Tang army.
Changsun Wuji and Cui Junsu glanced at each other, and both of them smiled bitterly and shook their heads.
The reason for their bitter smiles was not because the war was not going well. They could feel that Li Yuanxing seemed to be restrained by something. As for what? They couldn't explain clearly, but they just felt that Li Yuanxing had a repulsive mentality towards attacking other countries.
"Wei Changshi!" Changsun Wuji looked at Wei Ting with a smile.
Wei Ting quickly shook his head: "Don't come to me, I can't handle it. I don't dare to talk too much about this kind of thing, and the two sides are not on good terms."
Wei Ting naturally understands what Changsun Wuji wants to do, which is nothing more than to persuade His Highness the King of Qin on what to do and what to do. That’s why Wei Ting won’t go. Whatever the King of Qin wants to do or what the King of Qin doesn’t want to do is not something he, Wei Ting, can interrupt at will.
.
The King of Srivijaya climbed on the side of the ship and cried. His Srivijaya, his capital, was captured in the blink of an eye.
"After this fight is over, you can always go and say it!" Cui Junsu also said to Wei Ting.
Wei Ting sighed softly and then walked towards Li Yuanxing's study.
In front of the study door, Qiuxiang was holding a two-foot-long scroll. When she saw Wei Ting coming to give him a salute: "Chang Shi, this is what His Highness ordered. With this plan, we can lay a good foundation for the future occupation of Nanyang."
The scroll is a map with some locations marked on it, mainly ports.
At the end of the scroll, there are more than a dozen pieces of paper, with plans written on them. They are not handwritten, but printed. There is no printer on the ship, so it is obvious that this was prepared before going to sea.
Retreating to the deck, Wei Ting invited Changsun Wuji and Cui Junsu.
"There are nine ports in total, all of them are important ports. Your Highness will lease this port for a hundred years, and then send our army of the Tang Dynasty. The customs here, the ports here, in short, everything will be managed according to the territory of Datang County.
If Srivijaya doesn’t agree, then beat them until they agree.”
Wei Ting gave the plan to the two of them.
The three people sat on the deck and looked at the plan.
The plan used by Li Yuanxing was the concession plan improved by Li Lanshan. The great powers once used this concession to oppress China. However, the Tang Dynasty now used the concession to oppress Nanyang.
"If sheep cannibalizing people is a very clever strategic method, this concession plan is a more brilliant grand strategy. It seems that His Highness the King of Qin has always restrained his murderous heart. Otherwise, except for the Tang Dynasty, there will be no other people in the world.
In ten years, there will be no other countries." Cui Junsu commented.
Changsun Wuji looked nonchalant.
"What's wrong with the Tang Dynasty being the only one in the world?"
"Okay or not, we don't have the final say. There are saints at the top of the Tang Dynasty, people at the bottom, and in the middle there are dignitaries from aristocratic families. It has always been a taboo to split the earth and seal the king. Today, this taboo is broken. I don't know what will happen in the future.
How many disadvantages. Is it just as the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" said, the general trend of the world is that if it unites for a long time, it must divide, and if it divides for a long time, it must unite? Therefore, there are some things that we cannot say too much. His Highness the King of Qin must have concerns in his heart, but what are the concerns? I can't guess,
I don’t dare to guess. I just know that the things that are allowed by the Holy Emperor and His Highness the King of Qin are within the scope of the rules. Whether he is an official of the third rank of the Tang Dynasty, the head of the family of Qinghe Cuihe, or a citizen of the Tang Dynasty, within the rules.
Acting within yourself is the way you and I should abide by!"
Cui Junsu said a lot in one breath, and all of them were true.
Changsun Wuji also nodded in approval. He was always a low-key person, but this time he had the opportunity to entrust him outside, which allowed him to indulge the suppressed emotions in his heart.
"Ask Gao Baiyang to talk to the King of Srivijaya." Wei Ting said suddenly.
"Good idea!" Cui Junsu and Changsun Wuji both agreed with a smile.
Changsun Wuji added another sentence: "Ask the two princes to follow secretly and listen."
King Srivijaya was almost crazy, and his officials were also almost crazy.
But just when he was about to really go crazy, Gao Baiyang appeared. This young businessman, who had been rejected many times by Srivijaya's senior officials, and even had some bad words and threats, looked kind-hearted.
Srivijaya Palace.
The palace was not damaged, and the women in the palace were not harmed.
Gao Baiyang was sitting on a chair under the steps of the palace. Behind him, there were several clerks setting up the table. Li Chengqian and Li Ke were sitting beside Gao Baiyang.
"What do you want to do?" King Srivijaya no longer had any anger or too much fear.
If the other party wanted to kill him, they would have killed him long ago.
He was extremely surprised that he captured the palace but didn't take away a penny.
"I am a businessman and hope to rent some land and ports to facilitate my business. It is as simple as that. The management of all ports is in my hands, and the tariffs of all ports are also my business and have nothing to do with you Sriwijaya
.However, I will provide opportunities for no less than 300,000 people in Sriwijaya to work. The annual income brought by trade to Sriwijaya will not be less than 1 million. However, the place I rent, everything
You must follow my rules!"
After Gao Baiyang finished speaking, he asked his men to unfold the map.
The people of Sriwijaya cannot even imagine such a clear map, and they currently do not have a truly complete map of Sriwijaya.
But the enemy was already there, and the various markings far exceeded the imagination of Srivijaya officials.
King Srivijaya did not sit on his throne at all. He was only ten steps away from Gao Baiyang. He left his seat, walked to the map, looked at it, and shouted: "Impossible, you can't take all ours."
port."
"I wonder if the new King of Srivijaya will agree to my request!" Gao Baiyang replied calmly.
"You..." King Srivijaya glared at Gao Baiyang, but could not say a word.
Gao Baiyang's tone was calm: "I want this place for no reason. This is not a negotiation, it's just telling you that you must implement it. You can object. My master told me that as long as you dare to object, we will fight until you agree. Of course, you
Little Sriwijaya, you haven't seen our real army yet, what you have seen is just my master's guard."
Guard!
King Srivijaya was doubtful, but he also believed Gao Baiyang's words.
"We only need 500 acres here in Palembang. We will build a new port at the mouth of the sea. This is only the general management agency of all ports. We call it the consulate. Now, use the seal!"
The treaty written in pure Chinese was placed in front of King Srivijaya.
By signing the treaty, Srivijaya was equivalent to putting an iron chain on himself and then handing the iron chain to the Tang people.
How about not signing a contract?
No one dares to imagine the consequences. Even if these officials want to sign the contract, the interests of Srivijaya will definitely not be protected. But the interests of the officials and nobles may not be guaranteed.
Li Yuanxing never appeared again, but found a beautiful place called vacation.
The sergeants are still training on the ship, and the merchants are running around in several ports crazily. They want to occupy land for their respective trading houses before the port is officially opened.
A clipper rushed back quickly, and the telegram was sent back in Guangzhou.
About a month later, a huge fleet of eight hundred ships swarmed into Nanyang like a pack of wolves.
Among them, about 150 of the 500-ton warships originally used by the military were sold to businessmen and aristocratic families. Later, more than 30 1,300-ton ships for the military were also sold. The largest number were large sailing ships, which were improved
Some of them were built by themselves in the aristocratic family, as well as Feng Ang from Lingnan, Xiao Yu from Liaodong, and Laolang from Huating. All the seagoing ships that had been renovated from old ships were sold.
It can be said that in the entire Tang Dynasty, in addition to ensuring the necessary transportation lines, all the excess ships rushed to Nanyang.
The total number is more than 2,000 ships.
Among the first batch of ships, dozens of old Japanese ships were linked together and towed by 1,300-ton steamships. There were fully 10,000 Japanese and 30,000 Goguryeo people who also came to Nanyang.
The Tang Dynasty respected the customs of all ethnic groups, and the Goguryeo and Japanese people still wore their own national costumes.
Xin Palembang Terminal covers an area of 3,000 acres, plus living area, trade area, and workshop area. It covers a total area of 50,000 acres. There are 3,000 guards here, all Goguryeo guards. (To be continued. Please search Gone with the Wind
