The strongest emperor of the Tang Dynasty.

Chapter 706 Li Tai Wants to Form a Fourth Army (Part [-])

"My lord, news came from Zhao Bin, governor of Yangzhou, that the emperor has ordered him to recruit people who are proficient in water skills. And it turned out to be a one-off, let Zhao Bin recruit for the lord, [-] soldiers who are proficient in water skills." Xu Liang said to Li Tai.

"Father is really generous this time. Not only did he agree with me to relocate people from the states in the Central Plains, but he even gave me a hundred thousand navy." Li Tai said with a big smile.

"My lord, I'm afraid it was the globe you sent that made the emperor make up his mind. Otherwise, even if he agreed to the lord, it would be impossible to recruit [-] marines at once." Xu Liang said to Li Tai with a smile.

"No matter what the reason is, as long as we have soldiers who are proficient in water skills. Now we should find a general to command a navy of [-] people." Li Tai nodded and said.

"Your Highness, the chief admiral of this navy must have a good understanding of water warfare. I'm afraid several generals are not up to the task." Luo Song said to Li Tai.

This really made Li Tai a little embarrassed, after all, the choice of the commander of the navy was hard to decide.Although his subordinates are like a cloud of generals, they are all generals on horseback.Let them command the water army, I am afraid that they will drive the ducks to the shelves a little bit.

Just when Li Tai was feeling embarrassed, Li Tai suddenly thought of someone.This person is either someone else or his prime minister Liu Rengui.

In the third year of Longshuo (660), the Japanese general Mao Yezhizi led 7000 people to attack Silla.At that time, it was Liu Rengui who commanded the navy and defeated Mao Yezhizi of the Japanese country.That is, the famous Battle of Baijiangkou in history.

But at this time Liu Rengui is Li Tai's prime minister, if he is allowed to be the commander of the navy again.I'm afraid there is something inappropriate.But this Liu Rengui is the most suitable person to command the navy for Li Tai.

So Li Tai said to Liu Rengui: "Liu Xiang, do you have a suitable person to recommend to this king."

Hearing Li Tai calling him, Liu Rengui hurriedly stood up and said, "My lord, I really don't have a suitable candidate for the commander of the navy. But if I let you command the navy, I have the confidence to lead the navy for you." Send out an elite division."

"It's a pity that Liu Xiang is in an important position now. I'm afraid even if Liu Xiang has this ability, he still has no skills." Li Tai said with a sigh.

"My lord, as the prime minister of the Yan Kingdom, I can no longer command the navy for my lord. However, I can train a group of talents for my lord, although they may not be able to become admirals of the navy. But it is definitely not a problem to become a middle-level officer." Liu Rengui said to Li said Ty.

Li Tai nodded and said, "Okay, the admiral of the navy is not in a hurry to make a decision now. This king thinks Liu Xiang's method is very feasible."

"Then trouble Liu Xiang to teach in the military academy, and choose suitable talents to train among the recruited soldiers."

Then Li Tai said again: "This king is also planning to make an adjustment to the army of Yan Kingdom. In order to better display the combat effectiveness of our army and the strength of the general's command and implementation of the army.

Then Li Tai shared his thoughts with everyone.It turned out that Li Tai planned to divide Yan's army into four, namely the navy, army, air force, and guards.

The navy is currently recruiting, and the army is the original army of Yan State.The air force is just a concept at present, and the imperial guards are Li Tai's iron guards.

And Li Tai appointed Luo Song as Marshal of Yan State to lead the Fourth Army of Yan State.Rwanda is the commander-in-chief of the Yan State Army, and Qin Huaiyu is the commander-in-chief of the Guards.As for the commander-in-chiefs of the navy and air force, they can only wait in vain for now.

"My lord, we all understand the army, navy, and imperial guards. But what about the air force?" Luo Huan asked Li Tai.

Li Tai explained: "The army is a force that fights on land, and the navy is a force that fights in the sea. The air force is naturally a force that fights in the air."

"But we don't have the ability to realize it yet. But in the near future, we will definitely be able to form an air force that belongs to us. At that time, this air force will be a sharp sword in our hands."

"Could it be that the Lord is talking about the Condor Army?" After hearing Li Tai's explanation, Luo Huan said to Li Tai after thinking about it.

"Although the Divine Condor Army also flies in the air, they cannot compare with the real air force. The air force mentioned by the king is that soldiers sit on a flying machine and fly in the sky. And in the air give ground troops A fatal blow to the troops." Li Tai said after shaking his head.

"My lord, if what you said is true, our Yan army will be invincible. Who can stop our army?" Luo Huan said excitedly to Li Tai.

"Don't worry, stay by my king's side, one day this will be our Great Tang's world." Li Tai turned around and pointed to the world map behind him, and said to everyone.

It turns out that the background wall of Li Tai Yin'an Temple is not like other people's depiction of dragons and phoenixes.It's not a tiger unicorn, but a huge world map.

Of course, everyone here has already known that this world is not only a little bit bigger than what I know.Datang is not the center of this world.

"I am willing to fight on the battlefield with the saddle on the back of my lord. To complete the grand plan for my lord, and to plant the national flag of the Tang Dynasty in every land in the world." Everyone stood up and said to Li Tai at the same time.

At this moment, someone came to report that the former general Qin Huaiyu had returned.Outside Yin'an Hall, waiting for Li Tai's summons.

Li Tai immediately ordered someone to summon Qin Huaiyu to the hall, and not long after, Qin Huaiyu brought a person to the Yin'an Hall.After saluting to Li Tai, he said: "My lord, this is the concubine's cousin Wu Yuanzhong, and I brought it to you intact."

Li Tai had received a letter from the rich man a long time ago, so he naturally knew about Wu Yuanzhong.Know why he was brought to Youzhou.

Seeing Li Tai in the Yin'an Palace, Wu Yuanzhong was terrified at this moment, he hurriedly knelt on the ground and said to Li Tai, "His Royal Highness, please forgive me. It's the villain who has no eyesight for a while, so he did such a thing."

"Based on what you did in Chang'an City, this king can imagine what you did in Shaozhou. I don't know how many people were oppressed by you and their wives were separated. How do you ask this king to forgive you?" Li Tai asked Wu Yuanzhong.

"His Royal Highness Yan Wang, although I know that I am not a good person, I have never done anything harmful to nature. Please also pay attention to His Highness Yan Wang." Wu Yuanzhong kowtowed to Li Tai.

"How can you convince me, as long as you can make me believe what you said. I will never make things difficult for you." Li Tai asked Wu Yuanzhong.

Wu Yuanzhong hastily opened his mouth and said to Li Tai: "His Royal Highness, you don't know, but my father is a loyal minister who is dedicated to his duties. All his thoughts are on the people of Shaozhou."

"So naturally I rarely communicate with me, and my mother passed away early. So there are very few people who discipline me. That's how I got to know those gangs of cronies."

"Under their instigation, I did do a lot of ridiculous things. But I dare not do anything excessive, otherwise my father will definitely not forgive me if he finds out."

"If His Highness the King of Yan doesn't believe it, you can send someone to Shaozhou to ask. Then you will know whether I have done anything against the heavens or reason."
