Southeast Asia
It was early spring in Chang'an City of the Tang Dynasty, but it was hot summer here.
Li Moyun nestled in his attic, looking at the piles of memorials, accounts, and documents that were as big as one head or two.
I seemed to regret it a little. It was great to stay in the sky prison of Chang'an City in the Tang Dynasty, eating, drinking and having fun. I didn't expect that I would be so enthusiastic when I saw Zhao Yun.

However, Li Moyun still admired Li Mingda very much. Tubo was defeated without any warning. The Tibetan army that was left in Nibala did not last long without follow-up support and was defeated by the three countries of Zhenxulin, Yi and Piao. What the coalition forces did was burp.
Not to mention that the Tang Dynasty was the celestial kingdom that came from all over the world to worship at this time. After some troubles, the three countries of Zhenxu, Lin, Yi and Piao expressed their admiration for the Tang Dynasty even more.
Their king was very happy that he could integrate into the country of Datang and become a part of it. After Li Moyun came here and took over the power, not only did he not resist, but he also carefully helped Li Moyun deal with the die-hards who were unwilling to join.
That posture
Li Moyun looked a little embarrassed.
They are more active than our own people.
Gan Ning's fleet came here and brought a lot of people and supplies to him. After sorting out the Nibala, Gan Ning's fleet began to clean up one by one under the guidance of the detailed world map drawn by Lin Dongmo. Those small island nations and the remaining monkeys on the islands.
These monkeys in leather clothes were cleared quickly, and Datang's swords and crossbows defeated them in minutes. After knowing how powerful Datang was, these monkeys began to be obedient, and Datang was in Southeast Asia. There is a good workforce.
They were assigned according to the level of the lower-class people of the Tang Dynasty. Except for a few small islands that have not yet been dealt with, the large-area islands have almost been dealt with. Li Moyun then asked the fleet led by Zhenxilin and Gan Ning to start building the military port. .
The main purpose of the military port at this time is to prevent some unscrupulous people from coming over from Malacca in the future. There are not enough cannons to block the strait, but the factory in Panzhihua is busy making metal parts for the Tang Dynasty's new warships, and then in Southeast Asia Li Moyun's job in the area is to use the massive amounts of wood to make the wooden structure of the warship, and the steel parts require sea transportation to complete.
These can effectively control the leakage of technology and strive to put Datang in an invincible position at sea for a certain period of time.
The total length of the strait is about 1,080 kilometers, with a maximum width of 370 kilometers in the northwest. The narrowest point in the Singapore Strait in the southeast is only 37 kilometers. It connects the Pacific and Indian Oceans. It is not impossible to complete patrols at 37 kilometers.
Just need more warships.
Li Moyun's side has many shipwrights from Linyi and Piao, but their level is really limited. If they want to build new warships, they will need the local strength of the Tang Dynasty.
Speaking of the local shipbuilding strength, Li Moyun was even more impressed by Li Mingda's closed dry dock that could work 365 days a year. He had been helping Li Chengqian with power matters and had not noticed Li Mingda at all. Mingda's thoughts and reality go so far.
The loser is not unjust
Moreover, he cleanly occupies the entire body. He is directly issued by the princess, as well as Zhao Yun's legendary generals and counselors. We are different.

The sound of heavy footsteps and the sound of bells came, and the tall and powerful Gan Ning, wearing leather armor and carrying his own sword on his waist, walked in.
"Hey, Lao Li is busy~!"
Gan Ning didn't say too many polite words when he came in. He sat directly on a chair not far from Li Moyun, reached out and grabbed Li Moyun's teapot, checked whether the water was hot, and then started to drink it in Wang Zili's stomach.
"Huh, I'm dying of thirst. Lao Li, your tea is pretty good~!"
Li Moyun watched Gan Ning pouring the treasures he brought from Chang'an City, and his heart was bleeding: "Brother Gan Ning, that was given by His Majesty before I came here. It's just that much. Can you please wait a little longer?" Come"
"Oh, my lord gave it to me. So what are you afraid of? Just bring some with me when I come back. Besides, the high-ranking officials and the feudal officials give it to me every year. Don't be excited, don't be excited."
"So, brother Gan Ning, where's yours?"
Gan Ning smacked his lips: "Well, after I finished drinking, it was very boring on the sea, why don't I drink more to pass the time?"
Faced with Gan Ning's statement, Li Moyun expressed helplessness: "Brother, are you so free? Didn't I hear you say you went to Lingnan some time ago?"
"You also said that those local emperors in Lingnan are really not good enough. When my Ta Miao fleet sailed over, they surrendered to the world. What do you mean? They just yelled twice and then disappeared. After being the local emperors for so many years, , there is no thought of resistance at all, brothers can’t get military industry anymore.”
"You also know that my lord has defeated Tubo directly. There is no enemy country worthy of attack for thousands of miles around. How can you let those brothers who are soldiers earn money to support their families?"
Faced with Gan Ning's complaints, Li Moyun began to comfort Gan Ning: "Don't be excited, don't be excited, there are many people in the land, you know the Strait of Malacca."
Gan Ning nodded: "I know, isn't there a military port nearby?"
Li Moyun pointed at the map of the strait behind him: "To the west of this strait is Tianzhu. There are still a few million people in Tianzhu, but they are now a lot of divided small countries. You know that further west, your majesty will give Have you said it?"
Gan Ning thought for a while and nodded: "As I said, it's just the rations of the brothers in the army. According to His Majesty's estimation, their navy is not as good as half of my fleet."
Recalling the situation of this era, Li Moyun thought for a while and shook his head: "You can't say that. They still have some merchant ships in the Mediterranean. Their combat effectiveness is indeed not as good as ours, but it means that gang warfare is so easy to fight."
Hearing the word "double gang war", Gan Ning's face showed a trace of a bad smile: "We all have small steel cannons and eight cow crossbows. Who the hell is fine? Let's fight with them first. Is there any advantage? Zhan is a fool"
Forehead
Who said the ancients were honest and honest?
Gan Ning didn't behave like this.
Seeing Gan Ning's proud look, Li Moyun's mind flew to the Himalayas.
Li Moyun, who took a while to come back to his senses, looked at Gan Ning who had already cleaned his teapot, and suddenly remembered that he didn't have much tea left.
嘤嘤嘤
(╥╯^╰╥)
"I said, Lao Li, Lao Mo, Lao Yun, don't look so stinky. Give me some when I go back in a few days. By the way, when will you get married? Do you want me to introduce you to you? a daughter-in-law"
