"The effect of this shock has been reached, and Goguryeo will withdraw its troops in advance."

"So, Wei Chigong will be back in two months."

"However, after Goguryeo has gunpowder, I don't know what it will do, and I don't know what kind of weapons it will transform after watching our drills. So, Goguryeo can't stay! When he said this, Lao Li gritted his teeth, and a chill shot out of his eyes, which made the temperature in this carriage box decrease by ten degrees at once.

Li Xiaogong and Cheng Lao nodded and agreed with this matter. Everyone has this awareness.

Lao Li paused for a moment, and then said: "Without knowing the enemy's situation, our side should be prepared to make weapons that can suppress the enemy." The gunpowder on display this time made me very satisfied. We should consider using such weapons in the army! ”

Cheng Lao nodded his head, but Li Xiaogong remained silent.

The difference in the attitude of the two of them lies in the difference in their relationship with Lao Li.

With these artillery, the army becomes powerful in combat and destructive. But can all armies have it?? Every prince has a fief and an army. And the one who often rebels is the prince who is so idle that it hurts. Doesn't increasing the combat effectiveness of these rebelling princes make the consequences of their rebellion even more serious?

And Li Xiaogong is a character like a king, although he now takes the initiative to give up power in his hands, but in his later years, he pulled Li Chengqian up to be the superintendent of the spy academy, and he also has extraordinary power. Don't talk about this, just say that his prestige is in the royal family. In the army, it is still quite high among the hundred officers. Compared with half of this country, he beat it down. So he has to avoid suspicion even more.

"Filial piety. Why not? Lao Li saw that Li Xiaogong was bullying, and he avoided suspicion. Instead, I came to ask him.

Li Xiaogong clenched his fists and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the current production capacity of the Gunpowder Bureau is not too high, so it is necessary to deploy artillery, not too widely and too early. The minister suggested that it should be used again when it is used. Where there is a need for war, the artillery is sent to the soldier who is going to fight, and after the battle, it is taken back. ”

The point of this method is: The army can't have artillery, and only when it's needed, someone will send it. Who sends? Of course, Lao Li has the final say. So the artillery is Lao Li's final say. Take it back, or come back to Lao Li's management. Therefore, the artillery is directly under the control of the emperor Lao Li. All the power is concentrated in Lao Li.

Cheng Lao Xiang understood when he saw that Li Xiaogong did not nod.

When I heard him say this, I understood what he meant.

So, in order to make up for his mistakes, he concretized Li Xiaogong's words: "It's a good idea." It is possible to build an army in Chang'an. Specialized in the use of artillery, when it is necessary to fight, with the approval of His Majesty, how many people go. How many artillery pieces to bring. After the battle, this artillery corps returned to Chang'an. Bring back as many cannons as you have left! ”

In this way, it was stipulated that this cannon was not casually put into the hands of ordinary troops during war. Instead, it was controlled by the army of Chang'an, and even people and artillery went together. After the fight, the company came back with artillery. in the process. Maybe the ordinary soldiers who fought on the front line didn't even touch the artillery.

In this way, the control of artillery is tighter.

Lao Li also quickly understood the Tao here. So he nodded with satisfaction:

"Okay, after this thing goes back, plan well and implement it as soon as possible!"

This requires the planning of the establishment of an artillery corps, and the premise, of course, is that the Gunpowder Bureau should carry out the business of production from the business of research. And this task fell to Li Chengqian and Cheng Laohuo.

Alas, at that time, it was just to play with a cannon, and so many things ended up.

In this luxurious carriage, an emperor, a prince, a prince, and a super big hand held a complicated meeting.

First, he commended the meritorious men, then set a hundred-year plan, then planned to destroy the powerful enemy Goguryeo, and then built the army. These few things were simply and crudely said, but when they spread to the institutions of the imperial court, it was necessary for all the ministers and those grassroots people to be busy for a few years.

The honor guard returned to the palace and began the palace banquet.

In this palace banquet, in addition to eating, of course, there are other things to do.

And after the big drama, you also need a little climactic afterglow, so that people can reminisce.

Therefore, Li Chengqian and Cheng Laohuo, as the organizers of this exercise, naturally want to be rewarded and praised for doing such a good job in the exercise.

Before the palace banquet began, Lao Li made a holy decree and rewarded Li Chengqian with a large amount of gold and silver, and also rewarded Li Chengqian with Furong Garden at that time.

Hearing this reward, Li Chengqian was shocked.

Money or anything, he doesn't care about it now. Treat money like dung? Just like him.

Well, he is a hands-off shopkeeper, and he usually sees money only by seeing a number in the account book, and generally rarely touches how much money is and how much money is.

And what shocked him was the Hibiscus Garden.

This place, the last time he was organizing the Agricultural College, he went to it once, and that place was really his father's size, located in the southeast corner of Chang'an City. The four general shops in Chang'an are smaller than there. There is a large lake in the Hibiscus Garden, and several palaces have been built around the lake. There are so few palaces, it should be to maintain the view of Furong Lake. It was a huge surprise that such a big place with beautiful scenery was given to Li Chengqian.

Can good things be pushed out, no. So Li Chengqian smiled.

Li Tai, the dead fat man who was also at the banquet, looked at Li Chengqian with some jealousy. Of course, Li Chengqian, as a big brother, has to look like a big brother, walked over and patted him on the shoulder, brother, come to the eldest brother's Furong Garden to play when you have time!

In history, the crown prince lost power, Li Tai, the king of Wei, competed for favor, was favored by Li Shimin, and the monthly money was tens of thousands, and Furong Yuan was also given to Li Tai by Li Shimin. Furong Garden is the palace of the Sui Dynasty. The residence is thirty hectares, and the circumference is seventeen miles. Li Tai built an embankment on Furong Lake, which became the famous Furong Embankment, where many poets chanted poems and left a lot of fame in history.

Li Chengqian, who is blind to history, does not know this history, and if he did, he would definitely be overjoyed. And Li Tai didn't know that this Furong Garden originally belonged to him. If you knew, you would be.

After Li Chengqian finished the banquet, he went to Xichi Courtyard with good news.

But when I arrived at Nishiike-in, I found that there was no one. Listening to the palace maids who stayed behind, they all went to the Hall of Virtue.

Xiande Hall is the administrative hall of the East Palace, the East Palace deals with political affairs, and major events are there, which is equivalent to the Taiji Hall of the Taiji Palace in the early dynasty.

What to do there? Li Chengqian is strange, and even the pot-bellied woman is going, is this trying to do the opposite, or is something big happening?
