Datang: Destroy Tang Taizong Li Xiao at the beginning

"I believe you all know the purpose of the lord's request for you to come here this time, so I won't talk nonsense."

"Let's get straight to the point, report your own strength! It's easy to transfer in a unified way."

"Zhou Lan? How many people do you have?"

Hearing this, the corners of Zhou Lan's mouth curled up slightly with pride: "Thirty thousand elite soldiers!"

Chapter 390: One hundred thousand troops gather in Enzhou

"so much?"

A look of surprise appeared on Wang Xiao's face.

Everyone present was also surprised.

"Isn't this kid a captain? Where are there so many people?"

"Yeah, so many soldiers and horses were secretly recruited, and they were not discovered. It's just unbelievable."

"Thirty thousand sailors, this scale is too big, I admire it!"

Hearing everyone's undisguised praise, Zhou Lan's face became more smug, and he continued: "What is this? The [-] I said are just my miscellaneous soldiers. In addition, there are [-] Ace elites, everyone can count as ten!"

"is that a lie?"

A general got up immediately, and said with a bad face: "Zhou Lan, I don't know what you are capable of, kid?"

"How could you raise so many soldiers and horses privately under the nose of that old guy in Fanzhou?"

However, Zhou Lan said with a smile: "How could he not know about such a large scale? But he must consider the safety of his family!"

"I said, it turns out that you kid actually controlled that old guy, amazing!"

"Okay!"

Wang Xiao said with a smile: "With tens of thousands of sailors like you, this trip to Qiongzhou will be much easier."

"Don't worry!"

Zhou Lan didn't care about it, and continued: "In addition to the nearly 4 people, I also have the latest research and development of the magic crossbow, which can reach a range of more than [-] steps. It is so powerful that it can easily penetrate Ordinary stone walls, and no ship can stop its blow."

"In addition, I have the huge warship Hailong, which is a hundred steps long and fifty steps wide, equipped with more than twenty divine machine crossbows."

"Secondly, I have more than fifty medium-sized warships, each of which carries three divine machine crossbows."

"My fleet is unstoppable under the whole world!"

After finishing speaking, Zhou Lan stood proudly with her hands behind her back.

"Is this true?"

Wang Xiao couldn't hide the joy on his face, but he still had doubts.

"How can a military strategist be a joke?"

Zhou Lan said disdainfully: "Master Wang, the fleet will arrive tomorrow morning, you will know when you see it!"

"it is good!"

Wang Xiao laughed heartily and raised his glass to signal: "General Zhou, I would like to offer you a toast!"

After drinking a glass of wine, everyone's eyes on Zhou Lan changed.

"Haha, I also offer a toast to Brother Zhou!"

Lu Zhen, the captain of Yangzhou, stood up and toasted, smiling all over his face.

Zhou Lan raised his glass as well.

The two drank it down, and Lu Zhen sat down and said, "I'm ashamed! Lu can't compare to Brother Zhou, and he only brought [-] soldiers."

"Twenty thousand?"

Wang Xiao was also slightly surprised when he heard this number: "You, the captain of Yangzhou, where did you get so many soldiers and horses?"

Having said this, he couldn't help but glance at Lin Yang.

Even before Lin Yang was defeated in the war, he served as a captain in Leizhou and had been in business for many years, but he had less than [-] soldiers in private.

He couldn't be more clear about the difficulty of this.

After all, there are still people in charge, so it is really not easy to raise so many soldiers and horses under the eyes of the governor of Yizhou.

Zhou Lan controlled the lives of the governor's family, which is an exception.

"That old guy in Yangzhou has too much eyeliner. In desperation, I can only build an underground palace and hide here." Lu Zhen said with a smile.

"That's pretty good too." Zhou Lan said with a proud face.

Hearing this, the corner of Lu Zhen's mouth curled up, and he continued: "However, if that's all, then I don't need to speak."

"Oh? What cards do you have?" Wang Xiao couldn't help asking.

Everyone also looked at Lu Zhen expectantly.

Lu Zhen said slowly: "In order to remove the eyeliner of that old guy, I created a team of assassins."

Speaking of this, Lu Zhen paused for a moment, and said solemnly: "Also, Lu obtained a top-level hidden weapon from Dongpu through a special channel."

"What hidden weapon?"

"This hidden weapon is called the Palm Heart Sword. It is the size of an ordinary dagger, but it is superior in its exquisite design."

"The blade is heavy and the handle is light, delicate and small, it can be hidden between the wrist and sleeves, and there is no trace to be found."

"During melee combat, it can appear suddenly, attacking it unprepared, or it can shoot out, hiding between every move and every move, making it impossible to guard against."

Speaking of this, Lu Zhen's face showed a little bit of satisfaction: "If it wasn't for that old guy who was too defensive and never went out, otherwise I would have taken him down."

"it is good!"

Wang Xiao laughed and said, "I'm looking forward to the performance of your assassins."

"Come on, I will toast you!"

The two toasted and drank it down.

Afterwards, Yizhou Sima Yang Tianhai and others reported it one after another.

"Good! Good! Good!"

Wang Xiao laughed heartily: "All the soldiers and horses add up to nearly [-] people. If the prince knows, he will be very pleased."

"And brother Lin?"

Zhou Lan's gaze suddenly shifted to Lin Yang.

"Brother Lin is the captain of Leizhou, so his strength must be impressive!"

"Ashamed, I have fought with Li Xiao several times, but my skills are not as good as others. This time, I am just a lonely family." Lin Yang smiled wryly.

Seeing his former comrades-in-arms getting better than each other this time, Lin Yang was full of helplessness.

Even in his heyday, he was no match for anyone present here.

"Brother Lin actually lost to Li Xiao? Hehe..."

Zhou Lan pretended to be surprised and said: "Brother Lin is too careless, don't worry, you brothers will definitely avenge you this time."

"Thank you Brother Zhou for your kindness."

Lin Yang raised his glass to thank him, and after drinking the wine, he continued, "But Lin didn't come here empty-handed."

"I don't know what surprise Brother Lin has?"

Zhou Lan looked curious.

"It's nothing."

Lin Yang said lightly: "A few days ago, I have talked with the person in charge of the Huaxia Commercial Bank stationed in Enzhou, and he is willing to provide me with all the food, grass and ordnance supplies for this expedition."

"what?!"

Zhou Lan looked surprised: "Can you talk to people from Huaxia Commercial Bank?"

"Anything like that?"

"The Huaxia Commercial Firm is not just rich. They can do business all over the Tang Dynasty. So far, they have not dared to touch them. One can imagine the power behind them."

"I didn't expect Brother Lin to have contacts in the Huaxia Commercial Bank. This is too surprising. I have never heard of the person in charge of the Huaxia Commercial Bank showing up. These guys are too mysterious."

The others were also surprised and talked a lot.

"I don't know what is the relationship between Brother Lin and Huaxia Commercial Bank?"

Zhou Lan said nervously: "Can you recommend one or two for me? I just want to build a few warships, and some materials are too rare. With the background of Huaxia Commercial Bank, I can definitely get them."

"This……"

Lin Yang was a little embarrassed, and then looked at Xiang Jun behind him.

Xiang Jun frowned slightly, and said: "This time he can help me, it is already an exception, what's the matter, let's talk about it after killing Li Xiao!"

"Who is this……"

Zhou Lan's gaze immediately turned to Xiang Jun.

"My friend, he is the one who hooked up with Huaxia Commercial Bank."

Lin Yang said lightly: "You have also heard the answer, what matters can we talk about after this trip to Qiongzhou."

"Row!"

Zhou Lan clasped his fists at Xiang Jun and said, "Brother, if you have any difficulties in the future, just call me."

"Come on!"

Lu Zhen smiled disdainfully: "I have friends from Huaxia Commercial Bank, what difficulties can I have?"

However, Xiang Jun clasped his fists and said, "General, if I can kill Li Xiao, I will do my best for the materials you need."

"Okay! It's a deal!" Zhou Lan responded happily.

Chapter 391: Like entering the land of no one

"Everyone!"

At this time, Wang Xiao got up suddenly and said loudly: "The trip to Qiongzhou is imminent. You have to wait for three days to rectify the troops."

"Seven days later, the army will move out!"

……

Three days later, outside the city of Enzhou.

Looking around, on the huge flat ground, there are various flags flying over the densely packed military camps.

If you look carefully, you can find that all the tents are encircled, surrounding the central pistol station.

On the outskirts of the barracks, several people including Lu Zhen and Yang Tianhai rode slowly through the gate of the barracks.

"Haha, such a grand scene, this is the first time after following the prince to conquer the world!"

"Our brothers can fight side by side again!"

"If you ask me, it's completely superfluous. If [-] of my subordinates can take down Qiongzhou in an instant, the rest of them will go north and occupy Chang'an. Wouldn't it be great?"

"Why do you need [-] yuan? I think as long as Brother Lu sends out his assassins, he can manipulate Li Xiao at will."

"Don't underestimate the enemy. According to Lin Yang, this Li Xiao is very powerful. I don't know if it is true or not."

"Just kidding?"

Yang Tianhai said with a look of disdain: "Is he, Lin Yang, beaten into a fool? This Li Xiao has only been in Qiongzhou for only three years, how many soldiers can he have?"

"That's right, even if Li Xiao's skills are superb and his men are strong and strong, the battle with Lin Yang is almost exhausted. This is the time when he is weak."

"That is, I only need a thousand elite soldiers, and I can go to Qiongzhou to kill seven in and seven out, just like taking a walk."

"Everyone, don't talk nonsense, Lord Wang is going to order troops later, I'll go back to the camp to prepare."

"I'm going back first too, see you all!"

After they chatted, they parted ways and went back to their respective camps.
