Chapter 142: Spoil the Heavens
"Then Your Majesty, why didn't you cut him down?"
I saw the eldest grandson queen and said.
Li Er was speechless, staring and searching, only to find a reason, and said, "After all, he is a meritorious man, and I will not cut down a meritorious man. Unless...... He committed something particularly wrong. It's like this, it's not big or small, I don't know the rules, I just tell myself, just get used to it. You have to get used to it, queen, or ...... He can you off alive."
Empress Eldest Sun smiled at the corner of her mouth and said to Li Er, "It seems that the rumors from the outside world are not without reason. That concubine will have to get along well with this Li Zhong in the future."
The corners of Li Er's mouth twitched, and his brows furrowed slightly, "Even the queen, are you joking with me?"
Empress Eldest Sun: "But Your Majesty, you do treat him differently. You look at people like Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng, etc., don't they have much credit? Fang Xuanling is still at home."
Truly!
This year, Fang Xuanling was sent home due to his fault, and he has not returned to the court yet.
Li Er understood what Empress Changsun meant, and then ...... He instructed the palace attendants to prepare tomorrow's carriage and horses, and he wanted to go to Fang Xuanling's house in person.
"The queen should be satisfied now."
Empress Changsun was naturally satisfied.
But......
This still can't explain why His Majesty has a special preference for Li Chong.
Even......
This kind of preference can surpass King Wei.
That is, the blue finch.
In February this year, Qingque has been renamed from the king of Yue to the king of Wei.
In the past, His Majesty liked the blue finch very much.
Can ...... now
It seems that she will have to contact Li Chong more in the future. Empress Eldest Sun couldn't help but think in her heart.
Of course, she didn't believe that His Majesty had anything to do with Li Chong.
But!
It's just a little weird.
From a woman's intuition!
……
Li Chong's side......
After almost a year of testing, he and Li Chunfeng also fully obtained relevant data on artillery firing.
The good news is that the lethality and performance of the artillery are very good.
The bad news is that he may have to change his approach to combat.
Because......
In the process of fighting, there may be no one who is the commander-in-chief and will stand at the forefront of the army.
They are either in the middle of the army, or they are looking for a high place, condescending, overlooking the battlefield.
Even Li Chunfeng, who has never been to the battlefield and fought, knows this truth.
It's not that Li Chong doesn't know, he just thinks about whether there is such a possibility.
It just so happened that Songtsen Gampo wanted to go alone, through the nest car and the like, to reconnoiter the situation in Songzhou City, and then happened to be killed by his artillery?
Merely......
After he learned about the terrain and environment of Songzhou City, he felt that maybe he would not have such an opportunity.
Because Songzhou City is surrounded by mountains on both sides and valleys in the middle, the Min River flows slowly from the side of Songzhou City.
Then there was no need for Songtsen Gampo to build any nest car, just climb the side of the mountain to observe.
And the artillery made by Li Chong cannot be said to be unable to hit the mountain.
All I can say is......
In this way, it is difficult to guarantee a hit rate.
Moreover, if Songtsen Gampo really climbed high, he might not be able to fight that high.
For this!
They had to change their previous battle plan.
Of course!
By the way, now that they have just returned to Chang'an, they still have to go to those marching commanders with rich combat experience to ask about the most real battlefield situation.
Even......
Next, you may have to go to Songzhou City in advance to get ready.
……
went to Li Jing's house
。
After asking, Li Jing had already gone to Tuntian, Shanzhou.
In Chang'an City, who else is more reliable now?
There was only one Li Er left, and when he thought of Li Er's face, Li Chong could only say that he was disgusted.
A day later!
Li Chunfeng returned from Renzhi Palace with artillery.
Li Lizhen, four concubines, and five little ones also came back with them.
To say that the scenery of Renzhi Palace is still quite good, the scenery is different throughout the year, so whether it is Li Lizhi, or the four concubines, or the five little ones are all playing well.
After Li Chunfeng came back, he also began to let people process cars suitable for placing artillery according to the drawings.
Meantime......
Also look at four-wheelers.
Because the four-wheeled vehicle is obviously more convenient to transport.
Detachable four-wheeled vehicle, half of which is artillery, and half of which can also put gunpowder.
And the most difficult thing to do is probably how to achieve the steering of the front wheels.
But......
None of this should be difficult for the people of the Academy of Sciences.
Soon......
Everyone was busy again.
And Li Chong is here.
There is also a very tangled question, waiting for him.
But there's no hurry now, after all, the other eight cannons haven't been made yet.
He had at least one more winter to think about it.
And......
He also needed to increase the number of loyal gunners.
Now there are a total of nine cannons, and according to the average cannon, one cannon needs eight people to take care of, that is, seventy-two people.
So where did these seventy-two people come from?
Li Chong felt ......
It can only be recruited from the private sector.
It's not that Li Chongxin can't be as good as those aristocratic children, but he thinks that it is better for ordinary people in the Tang Dynasty.
Soon......
Li Chong put forward this idea to Li Er.
Li Er looked at him with a frown, and said, "You are a princess mansion, what kind of guards do you want?"
"Isn't it okay?"
Li Er: "Of course not!"
"......" Li Chong.
"What the hell are you trying to do?"
Recent. Because he has always put his mind on the queen, he ignored Li Chong's side.
I saw Li Chong and said, "Since the princess's mansion can't have a personal guard, then ...... I will build a new army, and I will call it ......."
In terms of naming, Li Zhong is indeed not very good at it.
After thinking about it for a long time, Li Er was speechless.
Only then did he say, "This name is Li Yuanjun."
It's a good name, it's unremarkable, it's unobtrusive.
Moreover, it is also very much in line with the identity of a soldier.
Because the soldiers are made up of Li Yuan.
And Li Yuan's meaning is the people, the people.
"Tang Li Yuanjun!"
LI Er; 「……」
Li Er found that Li Chong's courage was getting bigger and bigger, and now he began to control the army.
If that's the case, then I might as well agree to your formation of a personal guard.
Then Li Er said, "Then you should set up a princess's mansion guard."
"Okay!"
Li Chong said, "That name is ......."
"The princess's guard. But the eldest grandson, Wuji, can they agree?"
"You know they can't agree." Li Er also responded angrily.
Li Chong said, "Whether they agree or not, anyway, this is Your Majesty's business. You say one, how dare others say two. That's it! Hurry up and give the order! It is said that the princess's mansion can recruit seventy-two people from among the people of Chang'an to serve as the princess's personal guard."
