    Li Shimin returned much earlier than expected, and Xu Guoxu went to sea at the end of January or early February. This was determined, but the auspicious day was not determined. Yuan Shengun said that the auspicious day for such a major event was not calculated casually.  Yes, and the closer it is to the departure time, the more accurate the calculation will be. Therefore, Li Shimin did not set a time when he left Chang'an.

    Xu Guoxu first rested in Jian'an for a few days, because there were steel bed crossbows specially brought to his building ship in Dongping. These bed crossbows were different from the ship's crossbows on the building ship. The new steel bed crossbows had a range of  It's not as far away as the old bed, but it's easier to assemble. When not in use, just put a wooden crossbow body there. When it's time to use it, a few people can quickly assemble it by carrying the steel arms and crossbow strings. In this way,  It can greatly extend the service life, and maintenance is much easier. As long as it is well oiled, it will not affect the performance no matter whether it is cold or hot and humid.

    This is prepared for the crew members who may be stationed on the mainland in the future. By keeping the crossbow arms and crossbow bodies separately, even if the enemy takes the base away and gets this thing, they may not be able to assemble and use it.  The good ones will be hidden behind the parapet, and they will only shoot from the crenels. No one outside the wall can see what kind of institution it is.  Because it is used on land, the range does not need to be as large as that used on a ship. After all, the draft of a ship is too deep, and there are many places that are tens or even a hundred feet away from the shore. It is necessary to have that range.  It can inflict heavy damage to the enemies on the shore from a distance, form a deterrent force, and cover the landing of naval officers and soldiers.

    When Xu Guoxu had brought everything, he also brought Chen Da and the others. This was what Wang Kuang had told him. Chen Da and the others had already gotten married and settled in Jian'an, in order to provide for these old friends who were the first to follow him.  In order to give them a better background, Wang Kuang asked Xu Guoxu to take them out for a walk and come back. When they came back, it would be logical for them to be promoted.  No one had anything to say.  But when Xu Guoxu arrived in Dongzhi, he found that the saint had been waiting for him in Dongzhi.

    As a result, Xu Guoxu enjoyed the high treatment of the soldiers who went on the expedition, and the emperor came to see him off in person. Many soldiers did not know that Li Shimin had returned from Jiandong, and thought it was the saint who came from Chang'an to Dongzhi in person to see him off. This was  It's thousands of miles away. In the past, even if Duke Wei led his army on an expedition, the saint would only be sent to Sanlipu at most, and only once!

    Needless to say, the morale of the team of several thousand people was soaring.  If you use a measuring meter to measure it, it is guaranteed to explode.  The number of high-rise ships used by the fleet on this trip has also been changed from ten to sixteen. The number of people per ship is still 800, but the total number of people has increased to 12,800, including Xu Guoxu and other leading figures.  , it has already broken through 13,000.

    But it turned out that it was the trip to Jiandong that made Li Shimin deeply aware of the vastness of this world.  A place south of Jiandong, which Wang Kuang said was not so important, is so wide, so Wang Kuang said that there are abundant species everywhere.  How wide should the two connected continents with mountains everywhere be?  Since you want to send, you might as well send more.

    So there were six building ships that Li Shimin asked Wang Linbo to prepare early. The people on the six building ships were all drawn from the Jianzhou Navy and Fuzhou locals, and they came in strict accordance with the selection criteria originally established.  , there are more people who can swim along the coast of Fuzhou than in Jianzhou, and it only took a day or two to recruit all the people.

    Therefore, the people who went to sea this time had another mission. If they came across a vast unowned land with fertile land and pleasant climate suitable for human habitation, they would build a post station there, and those who would stay would  It¡¯s the post officials and post soldiers at this post station. All those who are willing to stay will be promoted to two levels directly compared to those in the Central Plains.  In other words, among the people who stayed, the lowest level was from the eighth grade!  Moreover, every year you stay, you can float two levels. This is easy to calculate. An ordinary person with no rank and no rank, who is willing to stay, can move up to the eighth rank or lower. If he stays for one year, he will return to the Central Plains.  , then there is only the eighth grade of Liuwai. If you stay for two years and then return, you will have the sixth grade of Liuwai. If you stay for eight years, you will be downgraded from the eighth grade after returning to the Central Plains.

    I have to say that this condition is very attractive. It only lasts for eight years, and it goes by in a blink of an eye. Moreover, there is no need to pay various taxes. What you earn is your own, except for having to hand over a part to maintain the operation of the inn.  Everything else is my own.  Moreover, in your free time, go out and look around to see where there is any need. If you really find something good, even if it is discovered by the entire inn, then your descendants will not have to worry about it in this life or even for generations.  Income.

    The most important thing is that this inn, said to be an inn, only provides supplies for future fleets and manages the people of the Tang Dynasty who immigrated one after another, and delivers letters to them. But smart people soon figured out that I am afraid that this inn will become a county in the future.  , the predecessor of a state, or even a line of travel, as a Yicheng, if he does not leave, if he has some ability, no matter what, the state governor does not dare to hope, but the loss of the county magistrate and county captain is still very big.  The county magistrate of Xia County has a minimum of seven years.Next.

    The group of pirates who attacked Li Gan and Li Dangda have been wiped out, leaving no one alive. Wang Linbo knew that Wang Kuang was a very protective person. These pirates had 300 Jiannan Army athletes on their hands.  blood, so he was not merciful. Except for leaving only a few people who led the way at the beginning, he would kill anyone he caught. After killing those few people who led the way, he did not dare to hide anything. This wave  None of the pirates escaped, and in the end, not even the few who led the way were left behind. In Wang Linbo¡¯s words, if you had known this, why would you have to have someone else since you had already killed my Tang Dynasty soldiers?  The awareness of being prepared to die can keep you alive for a few more days, which is already very good.

    An official must be kind, but that is to his own people; an official must be ruthless at the same time, that is to the thieves who dare to bully the people of the Tang Dynasty. These were Wang Kuang's original words, and Wang Linbo implemented them thoroughly.  , did not provoke the dwarves, but left a large amount of marching cakes and amber candies on the rocks on the beach of the island where the dwarves were, which could not be hit by the waves. It was regarded as a thank you for the dwarves rescuing Li Bold, and at the same time he left behind  , as well as some farming tools and crop seeds that Wang Kuang told Li Daring to bring. Kuang did not want to interfere too much with the evolution of the dwarves. In Wang Kuang's view, dwarves who can use sticks and simple bows and arrows should have already formed their own  Their language system and development system, perhaps, their way of thinking is different from humans, then there is a possibility of the emergence of another smart society and the emergence of another technological approach.

    With Li Shimin back, Huang Ziran could continue his dream of going to sea. In the entire fleet that went to sea, except for the brothers Li Daoqian who were kings, Xu Guoxu had the highest rank, but none of them had ever led troops, and Huang Da  With his prestige in the Jianzhou Navy, he became the undisputed commander of the fleet, and Xu Guoxu was in charge. As for the Li Daoqian brothers, they waved their hands and did not choose anything. They just said that their two brothers  They were going to see the world. If Xu Guoxu wanted their brothers to do anything, he would just give the order, but if they were asked to be responsible for the deployment, that would definitely not work.  In other words, the two brothers would rather be errand runners than take care of things. After working as housekeepers in the Lin family for so many years, they are tired of taking care of themselves.

    But Wang Kuang didn't know this. A few days after Xu Guoxu set out, he took Zhang San and a few guards and set off for Fangling. The shopkeeper of Xinghua Village should now be called shopkeeper Xiang.  In the next few days, Lord Xiang's tomb was opened and his remains were transported back. They had already released the news, saying that Fangshan had excellent scenery and was the birthplace of Sanbai, the sacred monkey. The Feng Shui of this place was also great.  It must be very good. Since the uncle has never married in his life, Fangshan is the best place to end up.

    As the master of Shopkeeper Xiang, it is reasonable for Wang Kuang to set off to participate in the spirit-transfer ceremony. Not only is it reasonable, in the eyes of outsiders, he is also an emotional person, which is in line with his usual style. No one doubts that Wang Kuang has other things.  What purpose.

    Shopkeeper Xiang obeyed Wang Kuang's instructions. He sent people to guard Xiang Ye's coffin closely, and no one was allowed to get close. These were only the people he sent on the surface, and there were also many people from Wei Xiaowu.  Keep hiding in the dark and watching.

    Xiang Ye's coffin was parked at the base outside Gulao Village. To be on the safe side, Wang Kuang not only asked Zhang San and others to guard the outside, but also asked San Bai to collect the wolves and the hanging coffin before the coffin was opened.  The big white-eyed bug was summoned and stood guard in the open space outside. In the empty room surrounded by the entire base, except for some household items and supplies shipped from Fangling for the people of Daglao Village, there was only that  The coffin and Wang Kuang are parked in the center.

    The coffin is very ordinary, just the way a wealthy family is buried. It is in the shape of a long rectangular box, with a black paint base and red paint depicting some figures on it, which roughly represent the life experiences of the owner of the coffin and the person of the eldest grandson's family, Mr. Xiang.  The implication of dying well and ascending to heaven early is contained in it. These have nothing to do with what Wang Kuang wants to prove.

    Being close to home can make you timid, but at this moment when the truth may be revealed, Wang Kuang¡¯s heart is pounding. Everything is based on his conjecture without any direct evidence. But the direct evidence may be  In this coffin situation, there was even an urge to call Zhang San and the others to call the people from Daglao Village and carry the coffin down without opening it to take a look.  ,

    I am really afraid. First, I am afraid that all the news will suddenly come to nothing, which means that all the previous efforts will be in vain. Second, I am afraid that if it is really opened, it will also trigger the transmission channel, and I will never come back.  Yes, future generations will be concerned about his status as king, but what about here?  He is also concerned about him here. On one side are his elder brother, sister, relatives and friends, and on this side are Lin Yingzhi, Xiao Feiyi, several of his children, Wang Xian, Xiao Wang Sheng and so on.  I can't let go, I want to catch both sides, and I'm really faced with a choice. How should I choose?  (To be continued., vote for recommendation, monthly vote,,.
