I have already established my power and prestige, so how did Li Shimin come back to life?

On the boundless blue ocean, twenty magnificent dragon-shaped treasure ships were slowly sailing towards Japan.

The hulls of the treasure ships were all made of tough wood, with high sides and sharp bows.

Pushed by the strong sea breeze, the sails swelled like huge canopies, rustling and providing the ship with a constant source of power.

On the ship, there were 15,000 elite navy soldiers stationed in neat rows.

They were dignified and energetic, and their eyes revealed their desire for the upcoming battle.

These naval officers and soldiers were all born and raised in Jiangdong.

There are dense rivers and fast-flowing waters. The unique geographical environment has made them have an indissoluble bond with water since childhood and has also cultivated their extraordinary swimming skills.

Whether in the turbulent rivers or on the unpredictable sea, they can feel at home and move freely.

In addition, there are a thousand workers responsible for hull maintenance, all of whom are experienced and skilled craftsmen.

During the voyage, they were busy on the side of the ship, between the deck and the cabin, carefully checking whether every plank was loose, whether every rope was worn, and whether there were gaps in every connection.

To ensure that the vessel is always in the best condition during the voyage and nothing goes wrong.

Li Zhentao, the Grand Admiral of the Navy who was given the surname Li by the grace of His Majesty, stood proudly at the bow of the main ship.

The black cloak he was wearing was of fine quality.

The sea breeze whistled past, blowing his coat and clothes, making rustling sounds, which only added to his innate heroic and majestic aura.

Despite being so young and shouldering the heavy responsibility of commanding the navy, there was no trace of immaturity or youthfulness on his face. Instead, there was a calmness and wisdom beyond his age.

Looking from afar, I could see the outline of Japan in the distance.

"Brother Tao, Japan is ahead!"

A naval soldier hurried over and reported to Li Zhentao with a joyful look on his face.

Li Zhentao nodded slightly.

"Didn't I tell you? Use your job title when you're working!"

"Yes, Grand Governor!"

There was no expression on Li Zhentao's face, but ripples were forming in his heart.

Since receiving the order from His Majesty, the entire navy has burst out with amazing mobility and was fully mobilized almost within a day.

Every naval officer was so excited that he could hardly control himself. The urge to fight on the battlefield and make achievements surged in their bodies like a tide.

After all, His Majesty has not used their navy for a long time. The long wait has almost suppressed their inner fighting spirit to the limit.

Now, they have finally got this long-awaited opportunity to go on the expedition, how can they not be excited.

The 15,000-man navy led by Li Zhentao was a world apart from Wu Tianyan's militia, which was temporarily gathered from ordinary people.

Every sailor wears armor made of high-quality fine iron, which has been repeatedly hammered, quenched and tempered to make it not only tough but also light and flexible.

The weapons they held were not ordinary weapons, but all finely crafted Tang horizontal swords. The blades of these Tang horizontal swords were extremely sharp, and the craftsmanship was even more refined.

Many senior officers were equipped with muskets. These muskets were not the slightly outdated versions used by the Fifth Army Battalion, but the latest models that were exactly the same as those used by the Shenji Battalion.

Its production process is extremely complex, integrating the most advanced smelting, casting and mechanical technologies of the Tang Dynasty. It is not only powerful, but also able to cause fatal blows to the enemy at a long distance.

The range is also far beyond that of ordinary muskets, and it is also excellent in terms of stability, and is not prone to jamming and other malfunctions.

At the same time, at the dock of Wo Island, many people from the Tang Dynasty heard that a fleet was coming, and they rushed from all directions and gathered here.
