Chapter 1828: Then what else do you want?

Li Chengqian called Li Chongyi out this time not just to suppress bandits.

On the other hand, he also wanted to show the Tang Dynasty's ocean-going strength to the whole world, especially the surrounding small countries.

Of course.

This does not mean that the Tang Dynasty did not have ocean-going capabilities.

On a normal historical timeline, the Tang Navy during this period was still very good.

However, because of Li Chengqian's existence, the combat effectiveness of the Tang Dynasty Navy has increased countless times.

And he wanted to take this opportunity to tell them.

The current Datang is even stronger than before. As long as the current Datang wants to, it can destroy them all in a matter of minutes.

But Li Chengqian didn't expect that these small countries would send envoys here.

And after the court meeting started.

These envoys also expressed their dissatisfaction to Li Shimin one after another.

They believed that since their country had surrendered to the Tang Dynasty, they were also subjects of the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty.

Li Chongyi's behavior now is leading countries to kill each other, and Li Chongyi should be severely punished.

After hearing their words, Li Shimin naturally set his sights on Li Chengqian.

"Prince!"

"You have always been responsible for this!"

Li Shimin said solemnly: "What do you think of this?"

"Well……"

"Stand and watch!"

Li Chengqian's voice was calm, as if he didn't take this matter to heart at all.

All the courtiers around him stared at him with big eyes.

For a moment, I was a little confused as to what Li Chengqian meant.

After all, he is also an envoy.

It's a bit inappropriate to treat others like this...

Li Shimin also narrowed his eyes and reminded: "Qian'er, I'm asking for your opinion..."

All he needs to do is say the word me.

That is telling Li Chengqian that I am not joking with you, I am asking you serious questions.

But Li Chengqian still looked carefree.

"I naturally know that my father is asking for my opinion."

"But……"

"My son, I really don't have any objections to this."

Li Chengqian said seriously: "This time, General Li led his troops on the expedition, on the one hand, to suppress the bandits, and on the other hand, it was also to test the power of the newly developed naval gun of Datang."

"According to the Ordnance Battalion."

"This cannon has a range of more than thirty miles."

"It's very different from the artillery we used before that had a range of less than ten miles."

"If these guys say it, General Lee only attacked the coastal area."

"Then I can only attribute this to the fact that General Li and the navy under General Li are not familiar with the new naval guns, which is why this misunderstanding occurred."

Hear what he said.

Everyone in the venue was also surprised.

New naval gun? The range is thirty miles?

What an exaggerated range this is...

You know, in the Tang-Japanese War, the artillery of the Japanese country could only shoot about one mile, but the artillery of the Tang Dynasty could shoot two miles.

At that time, Li Chengqian relied on this one-mile gap to lead the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty to win the war.

Only a few years have passed, and the level of Tang Dynasty's weapons has improved to such a terrifying level?

Not to mention the envoys from the three vassal states, even court officials such as Changsun Wuji were shocked by the range.

And Li Chengqian was quite satisfied with the reaction of these people.

However, he did not show it on his face and said to himself: "If this misunderstanding caused losses to the motherland behind these people."

"Then I am willing to take full responsibility."

"I will be responsible for the compensation for the dead and injured people."

"I will double the compensation for any lost property!"

Li Chengqian looked around at the three envoys in the field and said, "What do you think?"

Hear this.

These three messengers all had dark faces.

The Baekje envoy jumped to his feet and said: "Your Highness, the Crown Prince of the Tang Dynasty, our country, Baekje, surrendered to the Tang Dynasty several years ago."

"The Tang Dynasty has also stated many times that the citizens of Baekje are the citizens of the Tang Dynasty."

"Today, the navy of the Tang Dynasty has repeatedly attacked the coast of our country, Baekje, causing numerous casualties among our citizens."

"Can His Highness the Crown Prince settle the matter with just a simple word of compensation?"

Li Chengqian tilted his head and said in a cooler tone: "Then what else do you want?"
