Chapter 179: Divine Machine Battalion?

"What His Highness said is reasonable, but it is only relying on the Tiance army, and it will be a little weak to quell the rebellion, and the lower official suggested that Dongchuan Yang Shili immediately send troops to assist. Previously, Yang Shili had promised to send 5,000 soldiers and horses to assist His Highness in quelling the rebellion, and now that the counterinsurgency is officially on the agenda, it is time for Yang Shili to fulfill his promise. Xu Shiren suggested.

Li Ye nodded, "These five thousand soldiers and horses must be spit out by Yang Shili, since he has all been formed, he can't watch there." ”

"Your Highness, there may be some trouble." Li Yingxu on the side looked worried.

"What?"

"It's the front compartment Wang Jianbu. Before he said that he didn't want to fight with the rebels, although Lu Yanhong was a rebel, but from the Zhongwu Badu, Wang Jian and Han Jian both expressed their unwillingness to fight in the same room. Li Yingxu said slowly.

"What roommates? Since he has returned to His Highness, he should serve His Highness and the court. Lu Yanhong is a rebel, what kind of roommate is he? Pei Rong said with some dissatisfaction.

He actually doesn't have a good opinion of Wang Jian, this person is too thief, and he is a little unruly, not only for him, but also for Li Ye on the surface, but in fact he is a maverick. Although Sun Jiameng is in the front compartment, under the exclusion of Wang Jian and Han Jian, he does not have much right to speak.

"Although Pei Rong said that he occupies morality, Wang Jianxin has recently returned to obedience, and if he is forced to fight against Lu Yanhong's rebels, it may backfire. Now that Lu Yanhong is attacking Sanquan on a large scale, if Wang Jian and others are hated because of this matter and turn against each other, it is not a situation that everyone wants to see. Zheng Ningji said worriedly.

For Wang Jian, there are few people in the Shou Wangfu and Tiance Army who have a good impression of him, mainly because they are worried that they will defect on the verge of battle, and then they will face the situation of being attacked on their backs. When the time comes, let alone quelling the rebellion, it may even be a question of whether or not Lizhou can be held.

"Isn't this cheap?" Pei Rong's face was a little ugly.

"At present, there is no good way, first stabilize Wang Jian and others, and let people test the attitude of Wang Jian, Han Jian and others before making a decision." Li Ye groaned.

"But Your Highness, if you don't have the front compartment to help, only rely on the right wing and the 5,000 soldiers and horses given by Yang Shili, I'm afraid you will be a little weak to meet the rebels. The rear compartment is not a combat unit and can play little role; The left chamber sits in Jizhou and bears the heavy responsibility of attacking Micang Road, and it is not appropriate to transfer back to Lizhou. Pei Rong said.

"Your Highness, can you listen to what you say?"

Just when Li Ye had no clue, a voice came from the corner, and everyone looked at it, but it was Li Zhen, who had just returned to Shun and was now appointed as the royal sacrificial wine. Many other people present were dissatisfied with Li Zhen's request, after all, his official position was low, and although he could attend such a meeting, he did not have the right to speak. However, Li Zhen doesn't want to be silent forever, if he doesn't show his talent, how difficult it is to get ahead.

For this young Shou Wang, he also knew something about this time. This person attaches great importance to talents, and he heard that Li Yingxu was also in a similar situation to himself now, and finally got the reuse of King Shou, although his official position is low, but young, coupled with a flexible mind, won the appreciation of King Shou.

Since Li Yingxu is good, why can't he?

"Li Saijiu has something to say." Li Ye frowned.

"Does Your Highness know who the rebels who appeared in the territory of Sanquan are? Who led the army attacking Fengzhou? Li Zhen asked loudly.

"Back to His Royal Highness, the rebels in front of Sanquan are led by Pang Cong and Yang Shouzhong, and the rebels attacking Fengzhou are Lu Yanhong's headquarters soldiers and horses." Pei Rong said immediately, and then looked at Li Zhen with disdain.

Li Zhen didn't care about Pei Rong's disdain, and said after saluting Li Ye slightly, "Your Highness, according to the current situation, that is, the rebels are actually the troops led by Lu Yanhong's headquarters and Zhongwu Badu Pang Cong, plus Yang Shouzhong's department.

For the rebels, Li is more familiar. Judging from the current situation, Xingyuan Mansion may really be empty in defense, but Lu Yanhong is not stupid, how could he not expect this? So he dared to move the nest, and he must have relied on it. ”

"If Li Xijiu has something to say, you might as well say it directly, don't hide it." Li Ye was slightly dissatisfied.

"Back to Your Highness, I wonder if Your Highness can know Yang Shouliang of Jinzhou?" Li Zhen asked.

Li Ye reacted immediately, "You said that Yang Shouliang is Lu Yanhong's dependence?" ”

"Exactly. And if I were Lu Yanhong, I wouldn't let Yang Shouliang defend Xingyuan Mansion, because Yang Shouliang wouldn't do it either.

As the righteous son of Yang Dutong, Yang Shouliang is quite capable, and this person has no interests and will not send troops. In the past, Lu Yanhong was able to win him over by promising him to serve as the assassin of Jinzhou, but now if Lu Yanhong asks him to send troops, he will definitely increase his promise.

Xingyuan Mansion is definitely impossible, so Xia Guan has a bold conjecture. If Yang Shouliang attacked Bizhou and Tongzhou along the Lychee Road, with the strength of the army under Yang Shouliang, Bizhou and other places would definitely not be able to hold it. If it was then, the left flank would definitely not be able to move, otherwise Yang Shouliang could attack Jizhou and Bazhou from the flank at any time. ”

"Sneer。。。。。"

Hearing Li Zhen's conjecture, everyone present couldn't help but take a deep breath of cold air. If this is the case, the left wing will definitely not be able to move, and it may not be appropriate to take the initiative to attack Yang Shouliang. It's okay to win; If it is defeated, I am afraid that Jizhou and Bazhou will not be protected.

"Could it be that Li Xianjiu gave Lu Yanhong this plan before?" Li Ye looked at Li Zhen playfully.

"Your Highness has misunderstood. Since His Royal Highness came to Lizhou, Li has never given Lu Yanhong an idea, before Li was just out of helplessness, but seeing His Royal Highness's arrival, Li will definitely not continue to be a thief. Li Zhen hurriedly said, and some cold sweat couldn't help but ooze from his head.

"Li Xianjiu is resourceful, I don't know if there is any way to help this king solve this crisis?" Li Ye also wants to see if this Li Zhen's talent in the end is as boasted in history.

"Back to Your Highness, the current situation is not too good. On Yang Shouliang's side, His Royal Highness had better stay still, let the left wing and Yang Shouliang's troops remain on alert, and ordered Bizhou and Tongzhou to strengthen their vigilance.

If you want to break the game, you can only start from Lu Yanhong's side. As long as Lu Yanhong is defeated in one fell swoop, Yang Shouliang will naturally not dare to make a move, and may even take the initiative to surrender to His Highness. ”

"Your Highness, although what Li Saijiu said is reasonable. However, if Wang Jianbu cannot be used, we will not have enough troops on our hands and more than enough to defend, but if we want to defeat the rebels, unless the imperial court sends reinforcements. Li Yingxu hesitated.

"I'm afraid the imperial court won't send reinforcements, if we can't defeat the rebels, maybe the imperial court will choose to recognize Lu Yanhong's occupation of Xingyuan Mansion." Zheng Ningji said worriedly.

"This is also what this king is worried about." Li Ye's face was not very good-looking, but he suddenly thought of something, so he whispered to Link Ke, "Send someone to call Zhang Chengye." ”

"Yes, Your Highness."

Everyone was a little puzzled, Zhang Chengye was just the Si Cheng of the Ordnance Division, although he was an official of the Zhengwupin, but he didn't have much influence in the palace and the Tiance Army, and even because it was relatively low-key, although everyone knew that this institution existed, they didn't take it to heart.

In the current situation, what is the use of calling the Ordnance Division? Could it be that the army can't solve it, and the Ordnance Department has a way?

Although everyone was very puzzled, they could all listen to King Shou's words. In the palace and the Tiance army, King Shou's order is equivalent to the holy decree, and the holy decree is better than the holy decree.

Soon, Zhang Chengye, the director of the Ordnance Division, hurried over, and was a little surprised when he saw the people in the conference hall, but he didn't ask much, but came to Li Ye and bowed and said, "Zhang Chengye, the old slave of the Ordnance Division, has seen His Highness." ”

The title of old slave is not something that anyone can use if they want to, this is not only a title, but also represents his close relationship with Li Ye. Anyway, there are only Zhang Wei and Zhang Chengye under Li Ye who use this title, and Zhang Chengye is also new to using this title, and they used to call themselves slaves.

ァ新ヤ~(8)~1~Chinese 網ωωω.χ~8.~1zщ.còм

Although the Zhang brothers are reused for Li Ye, fortunately, the two do not have much power at present, and Zhang Chengye is just an ordnance secretary.

"Zhang Sicheng, how are the things that the Ordnance Department asked the Ordnance Department to do before?" Li Ye asked.

"Returning to Your Highness, fifteen trebuchets have been made, 30,000 rockets, 2,000 wooden handles of earth-shaking thunder, and 100 Fuyuan crossbows used to launch rockets. The old slave is incompetent, and the artillery, bed crossbow, and musket mentioned by His Highness have not yet been successfully developed。。。。。 Speaking of the back, Zhang Chengye looked depressed.

"Artillery, muskets, these kings know that it is not easy to develop, this is not in a hurry for the time being. The trebuchet is too bulky to be used later, so you can take one to the battlefield to test the actual combat effect.

Half of the rockets, wooden-handled sky-shaking thunder, and Fuyuan crossbow were each allocated to the Shenji Battalion. Li Ye commanded.

"Yes, Your Highness!" Zhang Chengye took the order.

Looking at these two people talking seriously on their faces, the others were confused? Rocket? Artillery? Muskets? What is this?

Rockets, they know, are covered with flammable cloth and are used for fire attacks. But this season is already wet, does the fire attack work? And muskets, artillery, whatever? A gun on fire? But what is a cannon?

And what's going on with the Divine Machine Battalion?

In fact, some of the people present knew that this Divine Machine Battalion had just been established. It is not under the banner of the Tiance Army, but belongs to the Shouwang Mansion Tent House, judging from this battalion word, the scale should not be large.

However, Zheng Ningji, the military affairs of the Imperial Palace, knows more about this Shenji Battalion than others. Although it was only a battalion, it was not small, about 1,500 people, more than a single one.

However, this seems to be a large number of people, but there are only four or five hundred soldiers, and the rest are all people. And this Shenji battalion is also very mysterious, the reason why Zheng Ningji knows more about this is because the needs of these four or five hundred people actually caught up with a box. Although the tax burden of the ten states of Shu has now been escorted, there is already a lot of pressure to maintain the Tiance Army, and now that this Shenji Battalion has consumed so many materials, he is naturally more curious.
