Write a Letter to Li Shimin
Time went back to 24 hours ago.
After forcing a group of crying craftsmen onto the ship.
Zhang Eighteen came to report.
"Big brother! Twelfth Brother is back!"
Zhang Xun was delighted when he heard this. Soon, a tall and thin young man walked forward.
"Big brother!" Zhang Shi 'er's face was filled with joy.
"Our scouts have already found out that a batch of Jiangnan Road's rations is being transported to Yangzhou City one after another. This is the military rations that are being transported to Luoyang! There were 500,000 dan of grain. This batch of grain would be shipped on September 27th!”
" September 27th, Yangzhou City!"
Zhang Xun immediately opened a map. This was a rough map that he had drawn according to his memories and some information from this era. It was not very accurate, but it allowed Zhang Xun to have a rough understanding of the location.
" Yangzhou City " Zhang Xun rubbed his chin. He vaguely remembered that the Grand Canal's initial focus was not Yanjing, but Luoyang.
At that time, the canal was in the center of Jiangnan, which was Yangzhou.
Moreover, in this era, the coastline was closer to the mainland than in modern times. At this time, Yangzhou City was only a dozen kilometers away from the sea.
"Big Brother, the Yangzhou Governor's Office is stationed in Yangzhou City. There are soldiers from the five prefectures under its command. We naturally have nothing to fear on the surface of the water…If…" Zhang Shiba said with a frown.
Zhang Xun nodded.
This was indeed troublesome.
However, this batch of food was of great importance. With this batch of food in hand, Zhang Xun could firmly control the soldiers under his command and even the craftsmen he had captured. He even planned to capture a group of young men and go out to sea with them.
Zhang Xun's tentative plan was to settle down in Flowing Ball first, which was the Wan Wan of the future.
In the Tang Dynasty, Wan Wan was known as a floating ball. At this moment, it was basically an uninhabited island.
Because a few decades ago, Yang Guang, the Emperor of the Sui Dynasty, had sent people to pacify Flowing Ball Island. However, they had failed, so Yang Guang had decided to use force to attack. In the end, the natives of Flowing Ball Island were massacred by the Sui Dynasty army sent by Yang Guang. They had even captured more than 5,000 people and returned to the Sui Dynasty.
Therefore, a batch of food that could support his subordinates for at least a year was of utmost importance.
After the flowing ball was slightly repaired, he would head north.
Compared to Flowing Ball, Fusang, Baekje, Silla, and even Goguryeo in the north were more competitive.
Water thieves, how could they suffer in a barren land?
Zhang Xun rolled his eyes and came up with a plan.
"Go and invite Empress Zhangsun over!"
Zhang Xun sat firmly on the chair, a smile on his face.
He had to think of a way to mobilize the Tang army near Yangzhou City to a certain place so that he could rob them.
.....
"Empress niangniang, this humble one's hospitality was not good enough, please take offense.”
When Zhang Xun saw Empress Zhangsun come in, he did not stand up to welcome her and said with a smile.
Empress Zhangsun did not mind.
"Chief Zhang, may I know why you have called me here?”
Empress Zhangsun asked.
"Niangniang, it's nothing much. The main thing is…He wanted to write a letter to the Tang Emperor to explain the situation and ask for some benefits.”Zhang Xun looked left and right." Brothers, come out and rob the road. We didn't get anything. Isn't that inappropriate?”
Empress Zhangsun looked at Zhang Xun as if he was a lunatic.
Extorting Tang Emperor Li Shimin?
Was he crazy or stupid?
Did he really think that he could survive even if he got what he wanted?
If he hadn't seen Zhang Xun command 13 battleships to wipe out the Yuezhou Navy, he would have been dead.
Empress Zhangsun found it hard to believe that the person sitting in front of her, who had easily killed eighty percent of the Tang Navy's combat power, was such a lunatic.
"You want to blackmail the Tang Emperor?" Empress Zhangsun's lips curled into a mocking smile." In this world, no one dares to extort the emperor.”
"What emperor? If he was really so godly, how did Yang Guang lose his empire?”Zhang Xun waved his hand.
The divine right of kings could fool the Tang, but he didn't believe it.
"That is because Yang Guang lost his way, and people with virtue live in it.”
"Li Shi Min killed his brother and imprisoned his father.”
A mocking smile appeared on Zhang Xun's face.
"How dare you!"
Empress Zhangsun suddenly stood up and stared at Zhang Xun, her eyebrows arched.
"Don't worry, don't worry. What's so bold about something that the whole world knows?”Zhang Xun said indifferently.
When he was in a good mood, Zhangsun Wugou was the Empress of the Great Tang.
If he was in a bad mood, Zhangsun Wugou would be his prisoner.
Empress Zhangsun was also aware of this. Her angry expression gradually disappeared and was replaced by a gentle expression.
"Shi Min was wrong, but he was only wrong to his father and brother. He did not let down the people of the world!”
"The country and the world. If the family is not united, how can the world be united?”
The principles of the Confucian school were something that Zhang Xun could easily explain.
"Jun Father has made a mistake, how dare this subject discuss it?”
"I didn't acknowledge Li Shi Min as my father.”Zhang Xun stood up.
"Alright, Empress, hurry up and write a letter to Li Shiming. I don't care what you write. You can write whatever you want. I'll give you an hour."
Zhang Xun walked out.
He also wanted to write a letter to the Tang Emperor.
Sitting in front of the book, Zhang Xun wrote.
Emperor Li Shimin of the Tang Dynasty
