But small-scale production has already begun, and a contingent of elite personnel from the Praetorian Guard is being secretly trained at the Firearms Research Institute in order to examine the use of firearms and tactics. Although I know very well that firearms can only be used intensively to show their great power, the problem is not clear to the people of this era, so it is up to them to find out the reason first, and then click on it when the time comes.

So, in the era of the lack of gunpowder weapons, if you want to deal with fast-moving cavalry in the field, it is better to use cavalry against it.

According to Fang Xuanling's prediction, the Chinese Empire will need at least two and a half years, and at least another year and a half to prepare, before it can have enough financial and material resources to seize the Central Plains in one fell swoop, and to prevent the Turks from taking advantage of the chaos to invade the south.

“…… In a year and a half, we expect to have 200,000 horses, and in two and a half years, we can have 500 cavalry battalions. ”

Hearing this, many people were secretly speechless. Five hundred cavalry battalions, one battalion is more than five hundred, that is to say, the number of cavalry alone is more than two hundred and fifty thousand, which is definitely a terrible number.

"Of course, this is only the budget, and in the next two years, we will form two cavalry armies, one cavalry group army is expected to be composed of 60,000 to 80,000 cavalry and 20,000 to 30,000 reserve replenishment troops and baggage troops. One of the purposes is to control the Western Corridors, and the other is naturally to deal with our enemies to the north. ”

The field army will still retain the cavalry formation, but not too much, and the new garrison and garrison troops are not to be considered. After all, raising horses is also a big expense.

This is naturally a preparation for the future refitting of the army. Now, after splitting the production and processing of flintlock pistols, a clear production estimate has been made, and as long as the number of barrels and plate parts can keep up, then a small arsenal of 300 people can produce at least 1,000 flintlock pistols per month.

If the production capacity is expanded, the monthly output of flintlock pistols produced by the 2,000-person arsenal and the mass assembly line can even exceed 13,000.

Of course, all this is still on paper. However, the cavalry, in my eyes, is important, but there is no need to exaggerate, a large number of horses should flow into the people, and with horses, the advantages of cement straights can be better reflected.

Vigorously develop transportation, not to let people take two legs to measure, but to vigorously develop transportation, animal machinery transportation, but unfortunately this son is not a graduate of the machinery industry, otherwise, this will get a steam locomotive to play is also quite good.

While listening to the voices of these civil and military ministers, while thinking about it, on the other hand, sitting with my mother-in-law behind the desk and hooking her fingers, it was very pleasant.

After discussing it for nearly half an hour, I still couldn't come up with any good ideas, which was really speechless. Ben Gongzi gradually began to be depressed, but he didn't have any good ideas.

"Really, isn't it just for the Western Turks and the Eastern Turks to eat dogs? Just let them bite by themselves, what's the matter with us? Sister Yaoguang pursed her lips a little impatiently and said angrily at me.

Sister Yaoguang's words really made my head flash, and after being overjoyed, I couldn't help but say loudly: "The lady really makes sense." ”

The guys present were taken aback, and everyone looked at them in a daze, as if they thought that the undutiful emperor was idle and was playing with his mother-in-law.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the queen has a plan, how about I talk to you about it?" Feeling that the Yaoguang girl was pinching my fingers after being ashamed, this son still glanced at these stupid ministers with a calm and calm appearance.

As a military general, Wei Yunqi, who knew that my mother-in-law was powerful, cheered up, "Oh? Her Royal Highness the Queen's military strategy is the most admired by the ministers, and please ask Her Majesty to show ......"

My son's gaze fell back on my mother-in-law's body, and his fingers gently scraped her palm, making her pinch it, and I continued to scratch it persistently, and her fingers gradually softened a lot. "What do you think, if the Eastern Turks meet a messenger to our Chinese Empire on the steppe, and then learn that the Western Turks want to unite with our empire and jointly deal with the Eastern Turks, how will they react?"

"Your Majesty, do you mean to send someone to pretend to be Turkic?" Ma Sanbao couldn't help but be happy.

"Whether it's the Turks, the people of the Western Regions can do it." I said with a smile. "The important thing is that when they met the messenger, the messenger happened to be on his way to my country."

"Wonderful, in this way, it has nothing to do with my Huaxia, even if the Turks see it, they are only half-convinced, but it is enough to arouse their vigilance." Wei Yunqi couldn't help but high-five and laughed.

"Yes, when the time comes, whatever actions we make here, as long as they don't provoke the Eastern Turks and Liang Shidu too much, I believe they won't have any radical reactions, and in the eyes of the Western Turks, they will naturally think that we are preparing." Du Ruhui said with a sinister smile.

Yang Gongren nodded and said with a smile: "This is natural, however, the only problem is that the Western Turks want us to attack the Liang Division and the Eastern Turks." And our army has only made an offensive posture, will it appear ......"

"It's okay, Tong Ye Hu wants us to attack, so let's really attack? If this is the case, then we will let the Western Turks reinforce our 100,000 war horses, and it is not impossible to consider it. Fang Xuanling crackled in his heart, and said with a smile, no matter how he looked, he looked like an old and cunning businessman.

"That's right." Wei Yunqi also laughed darkly. "If you want us to really move, then we have to come up with big benefits, for example, the Western Turks withdraw from the Western Regions."

However, the Eastern Turks are not bad, and the Eastern Turks have no opponents to the east, so most of the troops are concentrated in the northern part of the Central Plains, and in addition, if the Western Turks really want to annex the Eastern Turks, the Eastern Turks will definitely be dying. The Khitan, which was under the control of the Eastern Turks, as well as Liu Wuzhou and others, as well as the Liang Shidu, might also have envoys from the Western Turks to contact.

Therefore, it is really a beautiful thing for us to be faster, not only to be able to wake up the Eastern Turks, but also to be able to separate the relationship between the Eastern Turks and his subordinates. If you win, it won't make you happy.

One or two brazen braggarts in this nonsense, Ben Gongzi also joined in the nonsense, anyway, the matter has been resolved.

In the intelligence bureau, there are not only Han people, but also a large number of foreign races, Hu people and Turks alone account for nearly one-third. The responsibility of selecting the dead was put in the hands of Du Ruhui, after all, if he wanted to take the initiative to put this information into the hands of the Eastern Turks, the fate of the believers was afraid that it would be difficult to survive nine times out of ten.

However, there is no way to do it, to exchange the life of one person for the survival of the fate of the country and the Chinese nation, which is very beneficial to the country, but it cannot be sacrificed casually.

Therefore, I told Du Ruhui that it was only up to those intelligence officers to participate in their own wishes, and if there was really no suitable candidate, then they would be selected in other departments.

In the end, the Hu and Turkic people in the intelligence department enthusiastically signed up, hoping to get this mission, even if the essence of this mission is not clear, but they are very clear about the consequences of the mission.

In the end, two Hu people and one Turk were selected from the intelligence department. These two Hu people were originally from Gaochang, and this Turk was indeed an Eastern Turk, but he was the main defector. Two days later, they will set out from Guanzhong and rush to Western Qin, and then after entering the Western Regions, they will form a caravan, of course, a caravan of Hu people, to hide the Turkic in it, and then they will march from the desert, and then enter the Guanzhong region through Yan'an County.

Of course, they will be exposed on the road, and then, when the Turks or the soldiers of Liang Shidu come to visit, everything will be exposed. Well, it's up to the Eastern Turks to do what they do.

After that, Ben Gongzi met with Ashinar Jin again, and then said a lot of nonsense about the friendship between China and the Turkic Khanate, and asked what benefits this guy Western Turks can give us, when I heard that there was not much wool, only the batch of gifts he brought, Ben Gongzi expressed my attitude very angrily.

In the end, after Ashnar agreed to give away another fifty sweaty mares and five stallions, this son turned his anger into joy, believing that the friendship between the Chinese Empire and the Western Turkic Khanate would last forever.

Of course, Ben Gongzi also patted his chest and promised that he would definitely make a corresponding cooperation posture when the Western Turks wanted to do bad things to clean up the Eastern Turks. However, if we want to actually send troops, it is impossible to drop.

For we lack horses, we lack cavalry, we lack ...... In short, there is a lack of everything, at most, it is to make a fuss in the Guanbei region and attract the attention of the Eastern Turks and Liang Shidu, which can still be done.

Ashnar now left satisfied with the fruits of diplomacy. Come to think of it, the Western Turkic Khanate is very clear about the current situation, maybe Tong Ye Hu still thinks that the relationship between this son and the Eastern Turks is very good, think about it, my father and Qimin Khan are righteous brothers, plus the trade relationship with the Eastern Turks has been a long time.

Therefore, Tong Yehu's idea may just be that I don't want to help the Eastern Turks. However, this guy doesn't know what the prince thinks about the nomads.

"In your opinion, when are they going to do it?" I looked at the sand table in front of me, and I was very anxious, Wang Shichong was also ready to do it, and the Western Turks might be about to do it. And the arrangement of this son in the south is also ready.

"According to the minister's opinion, the Western Turks must hope that they can get better as soon as possible, either taking advantage of the critical illness of Luo Khan, or taking advantage of the death of Luo Khan and the failure of the new Khan." Wei Yunqi said while looking at the information in hand.
