Ang Lee specially organized a group of craftsmen to make models of various items according to a certain scale, and even made them in batches. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

And his purpose in doing this, in the short term, is to more intuitively reflect various scientific research achievements, especially when dedicated to Li Longji, the drawings are always less direct and clear than the models.

From the medium-term point of view, it is to pave the way for the future sand table command, at this time, the generals of the Tang Dynasty, marching and fighting are all flat drawings, which are very simple and rough, which is not conducive to a more intuitive view of the situation of the entire battlefield.

After the sand table is done, the models of these weapons and soldiers can be placed on the sand table, and the generals can see the situation of the entire battlefield more intuitively, so as to understand how to deploy troops.

In the long run, it is to develop the toy industry of the Tang Empire, and sell it at home and abroad, increase the influence of the Tang Empire, and let everyone understand that the Tang Empire has these powerful equipment.

Of course, it is only the first step, the second step is still being planned, and the third step will not be realized until the Tang Empire gradually becomes rich.

Li Longji looked at the drawings in front of him, and picked up the model and looked at it carefully.

"Li Shilang, this is putting the cannon into the steam car! The design is quite ingenious, tell me more about what are the characteristics of this thing. ”

Li An took a step forward, pointed to the ironclad artillery carriage, and said: "Your Majesty, this ironclad artillery carriage is amazing, all the packages around him are ironclad, the sword can't hurt it in the slightest, and it can ignore any attack of the infantry cavalry, the new artillery equipped in it is hugely powerful, the strike is accurate, and it can attack the enemy army thousands of steps away, causing huge damage to the enemy, in addition, the turret behind it can rotate, and the height of the muzzle can also be adjusted up and down, which can attack the enemy in different directions, and the ironclad artillery cart can run faster than the carriage, It can travel 300 miles in one day and one night, and after replenishing fuel, it can continue to march and carry out rapid mobile strikes against the enemy. ”

"It's so powerful, isn't it invincible in the world?"

Li Longji's expression was extremely excited, according to Li An's introduction, the weapon in front of him was a weapon that was invincible in the world, and once the troops were equipped in batches, Li Longji knew better than anyone what it would mean.

"Your Majesty, this kind of weapon is expensive, there is no need to make too much, as long as a certain size of troops is formed and placed near the capital, you can rely on the railway to reinforce in any direction."

Li An opened his mouth to remind.

"Li Shilang, how much do you think is more appropriate?"

Li Longji asked excitedly.

"Your Majesty, it's better to make fifty of them in batches first, and use them to train soldiers who can skillfully operate the gun trucks, and in the future, Wechen will gradually improve them to make the ironclad gun trucks better, and then, mass produce better ironclad chariots."

The reason why Li An didn't dare to make too much was because the scientific and technological research and development of the Tang Empire had entered an era of rapid progress, all kinds of new equipment were constantly researched, and the precision of various parts manufacturing was becoming more and more sophisticated, so there will definitely be various improved ironclad chariots in the future.

The lesson of too much production of breech guns, Li An must learn, and the scale of production in the future must be controlled, so as not to produce too many products and be eliminated overnight, of course, except for the urgently needed products, such as cultivators and harvesters, Datang's demand for these two machines is too great, and there is no elimination situation.

Li Longji nodded, and said with a straight face: "Okay, according to Li Shilang's words, build fifty ironclad artillery carriages first, and in the future, continue to develop better ironclad artillery vehicles." ”

"Your Majesty, Weichen must work hard to research and create more useful things for Datang."

"By the way, Li Shilang, why did King Guichang suddenly leave the Honglu Hall and run to your other courtyard?"

Li Longji asked suddenly.

"Uh, this...... It's Weichen's mansion that is too comfortable, and there is a fireplace in every room, which is much better than the Honglu Hall. Moreover, Weichen once escorted King Guichang back to the Dongnu Kingdom, and he was also familiar with King Guichang. ”

Li An was unconsciously a little nervous, after all, he was weak-hearted.

"That's it, as long as King Guichang lives comfortably, it's the same wherever he lives."

Li Longji already knew some truths, but this kind of thing would not harm the interests of the Tang Empire, and as the emperor, he didn't care too much, after all, even he robbed his daughter-in-law, so why should he care about Li An's private life.

"By the way, Li Shilang, I have a very important task for you?"

Li Longji was halfway through speaking, and he actually watched Li An sell Guanzi.

"Your Majesty, what kind of important task is it?"

Li An hurriedly asked.

"After this great court meeting, I plan to hold a military training exercise outside the city, and invite the envoys of various countries to participate, so that they can see the Tianwei of my Tang Dynasty, and the commander-in-chief of this exercise is none other than Li Shilang! This time it is a performance in front of the envoys of various countries, but it must not be smashed, and it must be able to reflect the military prestige and strength of our Datang. ”

Li Longji said softly, he is an emperor who is very happy, and he is also an emperor who likes to show off, and now, the Tang Dynasty has a well-formed artillery unit, and it will play a great role in deterring these small countries in front of the envoys of various countries.

"Your Majesty, rest assured, Weichen will start preparing when he goes back today, and the day of the exercise will definitely let the envoys of various countries understand the power of my Datang."

Li An also supports Li Longji's ostentatious behavior, surrendering without a fight is always the best choice, as long as the Tang Empire can show enough military power and strength, the surrounding small countries will not dare to act rashly, so as to wholeheartedly obey the interests of the Tang Empire, which can be described as a million benefits.

After some discussion, Li An left the Daming Palace and went to consult with Chen Xuanli, the general of Longwu, and asked him to cooperate with him in organizing the exercise.

In order to create an earth-shattering and powerful force, Li An has decided to immediately form the outstanding students of the artillery academy into the Eighth Artillery Brigade of the Tang Dynasty, and integrate all these eight brigades into the exercise army, and use the method of continuous firing of the eight artillery brigades to create a continuous super firepower strike, so as to deter the envoys of various countries and let them understand the strength of the Tang Empire.

In order to cooperate with this exercise, in addition to finding Chen Xuanli and asking him to send some infantry cavalry to cooperate, Li An also asked the officials in the capital to mobilize people from all walks of life, and immediately use hay to make soldiers and soldiers and horses, and even masons and carpenters used them, clay figures, wooden figures, and grass men, as long as they can imitate the real army and provide them to artillery strikes.

The time is very tight, the task is very arduous, the relevant officials in the capital are so anxious that they don't even have time to sleep, and all kinds of people who are responsible for making soldiers and soldiers and horses are also tired enough, but fortunately, the court pays for it, and the more tired they are, the higher their income.

In addition to preparing manpower and material resources, various organizational and coordination work is also very important; if the preparations are not sufficient, there is a very high probability that chaos will occur during the exercise.

For example, how to arrange the various troops, where to place the targets of the soldiers and horses, if they are placed too close, they will not show the strength of the artillery, and if they are placed too far, they will not be hit.

The envoys of the visiting countries, in what position is the best and in what position, can see the situation of the entire exercise ground more clearly, and can better experience the power of the Tang Empire.

All this requires Ang Lee to do his best and leave the best and most shocking impression on the envoys of various countries.

When Ang Lee returned to the courtyard, it was already very late, but because Ang Lee was relatively wealthy, many rooms in the mansion were lit with candles, and it didn't look so dark.

"Ah Lang is back!"

Cao'er saw Li An and hurriedly said hello.

"Cao'er, why is there such a mess in the house, haven't the ladies rested yet?"

Li An heard the sound of conversation coming from inside from a long distance, and there seemed to be a lot of people?

"Alang, the ladies are playing cards, no, let me go to the back kitchen to get some snacks."

Cao'er smiled slightly and walked towards the back kitchen.

"I shouldn't have invented this thing to play cards so late."

Li An shook his head, stepped into the main house, and went straight to the bedroom.

"Why are there five people when I go, and I still think that three are missing one?"

Li Ang strode into the bedroom and saw the figures of five women.

"Husband, let's see, who's coming."

Yan Ruyu got up and looked at Li An with a smile.

"Bud, you've grown so tall."

Although I haven't seen her for many years, Li Yaer's appearance hasn't changed much, she just grows taller, and in addition, her front chest is more bulging and plump.

"Big brother, I finally see you again."

Li Yaer put down the card and ran over to give Ang Lee a hug, just like when she was a child.

Li An picked up Li Ya'er and spun around a few times, and after putting it down, he said happily: "Ya'er, it's great to see you, tomorrow, I will let Kunxiong and Feiyu come over, they will be very happy to see that Ya'er has grown so tall." ”

"The second brother and the third brother are also in the capital, it's really good, I really don't know what the second brother and the third brother have become, hehe!"

Li Ya'er laughed happily.

"Big brother, I brought Sister Hanlu with me."

Li Ya'er let go of Li An, looked at the woman next to her, and introduced.

"Hanlu girl, it's been a long time."

Li An hurriedly said hello.

"Well, Ulzhou is goodbye, this is the first time I've seen you."

Li Hanlu smiled lightly, his tone was also very gentle, and he didn't have the slightest feeling of coldness.

"Sister, you are smiling again, and your speech has become softer."

Li Ya'er smiled lightly.

"I'm not smiling!"

"You smiled, when you saw my eldest brother just now, you obviously smiled."

Li Hanlu didn't argue, she looked at the cards in her hand seriously, after playing so many games, she gradually liked this game.

"You keep playing, I'll go to the back kitchen and make food for you myself."

Ang Lee felt that he was a little overwhelmed standing in front of the five women, and at the same time, he would interfere with the five women playing cards, so he made an excuse and prepared to slip away.

"Go ahead! Go ahead! The dim sum made by the husband himself is the most delicious, and you will be blessed later. ”

Yan Ruyu smiled and asked Ang Lee to cook, and continued to play poker with several women.

Li An walked into the back kitchen, made a few good dishes by himself, and let the grass be served, while he secretly went to the orchard for a walk, although it was winter, but the environment of the orchard was still the best in the whole courtyard.

Sitting in the gazebo of the orchard, Li An thought seriously.

A few days ago, there was still only one Yan Ruyu in the family, and in just a few days, the four women of Barbarian, Zhao Yufu, Li Yaer, and Li Hanlu all came over, and the house suddenly became a lot more lively, which made Li An quite uncomfortable, mainly because these women have a complicated relationship with themselves, and he is a little overwhelmed in the face of five women at the same time, in case he praises one person and hurts the other, or someone proposes that five people fall into the water, what should they do, which one to save first.

'Recently, I have not been lucky, so many beautiful women have entered their own courtyards one after another, and the time interval is so short, it seems that they have been discussed in advance. ’

Li An was naturally extremely happy to see these people, but at the same time, he was a little uncomfortable, and he didn't know how to get along with these women at the same time.

"Ah Lang, why are you here! The ladies all went back to their rooms. ”

Cao'er ran to the orchard and found Ang Lee.

"Ladies? What do you mean, you treat them all as ladies? ”

Li An was very curious, Cao'er was Yan Ruyu's person, why did he turn his elbow out!

"Ah Lang, I didn't say that they are all wives, but the one from King Guichang and the one from the land should be considered ladies, and they all gave birth to Ah Lang."

Grass reminds seriously.

"I'll take a breath, and I'll go back."

Unable to defend himself, Ang Lee stood up and prepared to go back.

"Ah Lang, Madam said, it's the turn of the third lady to sleep today."

"Third Lady? You mean it's brutal! Isn't that the second lady? ”

Of course Ang Li knew what was going on, but he didn't expect that several women would even have their positions lined up, which was too surprising to him, especially Zhao Yufu, who couldn't stay for a long time, and would leave after half a month, is it really appropriate to have a second lady?

"Madame is so reasonable, go back and thank her for me."

Li An smiled evilly and walked to the room where the brute lived.

After a moment of hesitation to let the barbarian little lady suffer so much, Ang Lee decided to make up for the barbarian, cooking by himself is only the first step, the next step is naturally gentle pampering, so that the barbarian feels a comfortable sense of security.

The room in Ang Lee's courtyard is not only warm and comfortable, but also has a very good sound insulation effect, especially the room in the main house, which has the best sound insulation effect.

This night, Ang Lee hugged the barbarian little lady and said a lot of love words that Ang Lee didn't believe in himself, coaxing the barbarian little lady to excitedly arch her head into Ang Lee's arms, happy don't want it, as if with the warmth of this moment, all the suffering in the past year is irrelevant.
