When the ministers in the palace saw Abu look at He Ziming's sword, they actually laughed, and they all felt that he was too rude, and they all made accusations.

Li Guanqi also felt that Abu's arrogance was a bit excessive, so he shouted: "Presumptuous! If you dare to roar at the court again, I will order someone to beat you out. ”

Abu stopped laughing, reversed the hilt of the sword, handed the sword back to He Ziming, and then saluted Li Guanqi and said, "Please forgive the emperor, I didn't mean to, I just thought it was funny, and I couldn't control it for a while!"

Li Guanqi frowned, and said secretly in his heart: Could it be that when He Ziming swung his sword to cut the iron armor just now, the Tenglong Sword was damaged? Thinking of this, Li Guanqi pretended to be calm and said coldly: "Why are you laughing? ”

Abu stretched out his hand and pointed at He Ziming, and said: "I have to admit that the sword he used is indeed a sword, no worse than the sword of our Turks, but I just saw a dragon symbolizing the power of the Great Qianhuang on that sword, if I am not mistaken, his sword should be the widely spread sword of the Son of Heaven - Tenglong Sword!" ”

Li Guanqi said quietly: "You know a lot. ”

Abu Da straightened his chest again and said, "I also heard that there are only two Tenglong swords in the whole world. But in our Turks, there are hundreds of thousands of sword-wielding soldiers, and everyone has such a sword. Also, there are tens of thousands of knights with armor, and everyone has a good horse......"

On the surface, Abu's words sounded like he was talking about the treasure sword and BMW, but in fact, he was taking the opportunity to show off his force, and he made it clear that he was threatening, and who in this hall couldn't hear it? All of them had a look of righteous indignation.

Dongfang Rui took the lead and said: "The envoy should not be arrogant, I am a big country, a state of benevolence and righteousness, with etiquette and righteousness as the first, not Bier and other countries, specializing in this strange and ingenious thing." ”

Dongfang Rui's words are beautiful. But it's all empty talk and big talk, without any backing support, and now it sounds like it's a kind of strong and dry in it. Therefore, Abuta didn't care, and still had a smug smile on his face.

Li Guanqi knows. If this meeting continues, the prestige of the great cadres will be further swept away, and the confidence of the ministers will be further damaged, so he knows that he must cut through the mess quickly, so he stood up and said: "As you just said, if you want to know whether my great cadres are good enough in armor, you should still go to the battlefield to find the answer." ”

After a pause, Li Guanqi continued: "Go back and talk to your Khan. I accepted his gift. Your newborn princess is also my cousin, so I naturally won't be short of courtesy. If your Khan is truly friendly with Daqian, I will not disappoint him. As for Yunzhou City? You tell him the same way, you can do it if you want, but you have to send troops to get it. ”

Abu didn't expect Li Guanqi's attitude to be so tough, his lips were slightly pursed, and he wanted to say something. Li Guanqi has spoken again: "We want peace and show sincerity." If you want war, I will accompany you to the end. Don't talk about anything else. Step aside! ”

After the interview. Li Guanqi walked on the way back to the Qinzheng Palace, with a sad face. Although the words he said to Abu were so magnificent above the Golden Palace, in fact, he was also very aware of the achievements of the Great Qian Dynasty in foreign wars. The reason why he said that was because the situation forced him not to bow his head, and secondly, he hoped that Jiba Khan would be able to think calmly. War is a lose-lose affair.

He Ziming saw Li Guanqi's worried face, and knew that he was worried about what happened just now, so he asked, "Is Your Majesty still worried about the things in the palace just now?" ”

Li Guanqi sighed and said, "I have millions of armor soldiers, but the army's armor and training are several grades worse than those of the Turks. If it weren't for the advantage of city defense, I am afraid that this great river and mountain would have already been the pasture of the Turks! ”

He Ziming laughed lightly and said: "The minister thinks that His Majesty the Emperor doesn't have to worry too much, that Abuta must be bluffing, the ten knives he brought this time are indeed rare, but if it is said that all their Turkic soldiers can use such a treasure knife, it is absolutely impossible." If they had faith in victory, they would not have made such a trick! ”

If you want to say that everyone in the Eastern-Turkic-Turkic people has that kind of sword, Li Guanqi definitely doesn't believe this kind of thing. However, it is also an indisputable fact that the Turkic soldiers are much better than the great cadres in terms of personal combat strength and armor.

Therefore, Li Guanqi could not be as optimistic as He Ziming, he had to think of ways to improve the overall combat effectiveness of the Daqian army, and in order to achieve this, the reform of the military system was inevitable, but once the military system was reformed, he had to think of ways to prevent the mutiny of the generals in various places.

After going around in a big circle, Li Guanqi went back to the original point, and his top priority now was to improve the combat power of the twelve guards of the Beijing Division.

The construction of the military academy has begun, and the army's armament must also be put on the agenda as soon as possible, so just now, Li Guanqi has already asked Zhao Zheng to go to the Qinzheng Palace to see the driver.

In fact, since Zhao Zheng returned to Shun, Li Guanqi has been thinking about how to arrange him. Zhao is from the rivers and lakes and mountain bandits, and if the official seal is big, there will inevitably be people who will come out to oppose it; The seal is small, Li Guanqi is afraid that Zhao Zheng will not be happy, of course, he is also afraid that the eldest princess Li Xiuxin will not be able to explain.

At the same time, because Zhao Zheng has always been the boss before, and he is a very assertive all-round talent in civil and military affairs, if such a person is placed under the Sixth Ministry, Li Guanqi is afraid that he will not be able to get along with those bureaucrats.

Therefore, after thinking about it, Li Guanqi had to find another way, he wanted to give full play to Zhao Zheng's strengths, and let him be as undisturbed as possible.

Looking at Zhao Zheng sitting on the low stool in front of him, Li Guanqi smiled and said, "I called you here today to send you some errands to do, I don't know if you are willing?" ”

Zhao Zheng bowed his head slightly and said: "Since the grass people have followed His Majesty to the Beijing Division, they naturally want to do a little bit for the big cadres, what does Your Majesty want the grass people to do?" Despite the commands! ”

Li Guanqi nodded and said, "Do you remember the first time we met?" ”

Zhao Zheng said a little shyly: "The grass people were about to go to the Qinglou to prostitute at that time, and now they feel ashamed to think about it!" ”

Li Guanqi smiled and said: "People are not romantic, I didn't mean this, what impressed me the most at that time was your magic rocket!" ”

Zhao Zheng heard Li Guanqi talk about his lack of business, and he felt even more embarrassed, and hurriedly said: "Strange and ingenious tricks, not enough to worry about!" ”

Li Guanqi shook his head and said, "No, no, no!" I think that if the magic machine rocket is improved, it can be turned from an ornamental object into a powerful weapon, and the opponent has not yet come close, and has been killed from afar, isn't it a battlefield weapon? ”

As Li Guanqi spoke, he imagined in his mind that the chrysanthemum-shaped gorgeous fireworks would turn the enemy army into a mass of flesh and blood, and his breath began to become rapid......

Zhao Zheng frowned and said, "Your Majesty is taking this for granted, but in fact it is difficult to do this. ”

"Why?" Li Guanqi was splashed with a basin of cold water and asked unwillingly.

Zhao Zheng slowly explained: "In fact, the power of gunpowder is not as great as His Majesty thinks!" (To be continued......)
