The decision of the nobles was actually right.

For them, if they can participate in the manufacture of ordnance, it is a good thing both from their own point of view and from the perspective of assisting Li Ke.

This is both a symbol of power and a tangible benefit, and they have no reason to refuse.

Of course, they know better than anyone about the risks involved.

But that's often the case, with both risks and benefits.

In just two days, led by Li Ke, the ordnance workshop dominated by the scholars was built outside Chang'an City, and the action was fast and the efficiency was staggering.

Of course, this is actually normal, and when these places of the scholar clan start to get serious, the efficiency is really not a joke.

Moreover, it is not that they do not have skills, but they do not have qualifications, and once they have this qualification, whether it is human or material resources, including workshops, it is not a problem for them.

Just when the first batch of ordnance in the Shi Clan's workshop began to be produced, Luo was in Li Chengqian's big tent.

During this time, Li Chengqian has not been idle, always paying attention to the movements of Park Gu Fuze.

As long as Pu Gu Fuze's army arrives in Zhongtianzhu, he will let the army of Nibora take West Tianzhu directly.

For him, going south to win the five Tianzhu is also the most important thing.

It's not that he covets the land, but to be precise, he needs supreme merit, and at the same time a large number of slaves.

Nowadays, the development of Daming cannot be said to have reached a bottleneck period, but it is indeed not good to develop.

Without him, Daming is a multi-ethnic country, and the people under his rule cannot be said to be 100% integrated into the Ming system, but as far as the current situation is concerned, the vast majority of people still recognize their identity as the people of Daming.

There are both benefits and disadvantages to this.

Of course, the advantage is that the cohesion of the people will only get stronger and stronger, but there is also a disadvantage, that is, the pride of the people has nowhere to play.

This is similar to the brocade night walk.

I am the people of the Ming Dynasty, this is where my pride lies, I should be proud of this identity, but as a result, now everyone is proud of it, so where does my pride come from?

Therefore, for today's Li Chengqian, it is urgent to win the five Tianzhu and let the people of the five Tianzhu set off the pride of the people of the Ming Dynasty.

This is the case in this world, and the chain of contempt is the most direct.

"There's no news from General Park Gu yet?" In the big tent, Li Chengqian asked in a deep voice.

In fact, he is also in a hurry, the longer it drags on, the more unfavorable it will be for him, and there are political reasons for him to go south.

"No news yet." When Liu San heard this, he said, "But it should be soon, according to the news from there before, General Pu Gu should have arrived at the place at this time, and there should be news in two or three days at most." ”

When Li Chengqian heard this, he nodded, but he didn't dwell too much on this issue.

He was in a hurry, but he didn't wait.

"Inform Wu An that the intelligence on Park Gu Fuze's side has the highest priority." After speaking, Li Chengqian looked at Mangbo Jie Sun Bo again, and said, "At the same time, your side also let the Ni Bora side prepare, once there is news from Pu Gu Fuze's side, the Ni Bo army will take Xi Tianzhu directly as soon as possible."

At the same time, the resentful army went south to deter Northern Tianzhu. ”

"The ministers receive orders." When everyone heard this, they bowed down one after another to receive the order.

They know what Li Chengqian wants to do, and they also support it, the development of the Ming Dynasty to the present, it really needs to inject fresh blood, of course, it is not that the population of the Ming Dynasty is not enough, but that the Ming Dynasty urgently needs a group of people to set off the superiority of the people of the Ming Dynasty today.

"Your Highness, someone from Chang'an is here, not the secret spy department or Wang Shilang, they sent it, saying that there is important news to convey to His Highness." Just then, someone walked in and said.

Hearing that it was someone from Chang'an, Li Chengqian also nodded and asked people to bring him in.

Soon, the person was brought in, but Li Chengqian was a little surprised, it was not the secret spy department, nor Wang Dequan's person, so the identity of this person was interesting.

And Yu Chi Baolin, Liu San and others are also looking like they are ready to fight at this time, and those who come from Chang'an, not their own people, have to be on guard.

"Who sent you?" Compared with the so-called important news, Li Chengqian wanted to know who sent this person.

When the man heard this, he was not nervous, and at the age of thirty, he was quite calm.

"Your Highness should know." The man said, "But it doesn't matter, my master asked Xiao to inform His Highness that the scholars have begun to recruit people, and at the same time they have begun to build weapons."

Your Highness should be careful with this.

As for the identity of my master, the master explained it before the little one came, and His Highness can guess it.

Now Chang'an is changing three times a day, and I hope His Royal Highness will understand. ”

Hearing him say this, Li Chengqian was stunned for a moment, not that he cared about the identity of the person behind him, but that the scholars actually began to build ordnance.

As for this news, he didn't doubt that even if he couldn't bear to inform him about such a big matter, it wouldn't be long before the secret spy department and Wang Dequan would send news.

"Private or government-run?" Li Chengqian asked.

This is important.

"Guanying, Your Majesty has a will." The man hurriedly said, "But although it is an official camp, it is run by the nobles. ”

Waving his hand, Li Chengqian said: "Liu San, take him down, greeting him with good wine and food." ”

After Liu San took the people away, Zhao Yan asked, "Your Highness doesn't ask who is behind him?" ”

"No need to ask, this king already knows who it is." Li Chengqian shook his head and said, "Since it is an official camp, then this person's identity can only be the brother of this king." ”

"King Wei?" Everyone was stunned when they heard this.

This one has been silent for some days.

Li Chengqian shook his head and said, "No, Shu Wang Ke." ”

"Won't it?" Everyone was really stunned at this moment.

If it is Li Tai, the king of Wei, they can actually understand it, but if it is replaced by Li Ke, it is really difficult to understand.

The scholars are in control, and to put it bluntly, Li Ke is in control.

There's no reason for him to sell himself, right?

Seeing everyone's expressions, Li Chengqian shook his head and said, "You haven't figured it out yet, for the King of Shu, passing this news to this king is actually beneficial to him.

First of all, he was able to completely tie the nobles to his chariot and cut off the connection between the nobles and us.

After all, the scholars began to recruit people, and began to build ordnance, which was naturally used for the war of the Great Zhao Dynasty.

This is completely opposite to us.

Of course, this is not the most important thing either.

The most important thing is that he will have an additional way out of his own in the future.

The ordnance official camp, built by the scholars, hehe, my father is afraid that the scholars will not die!

This time, unless they can really assist the King of Shu to win the world, otherwise, whether it is my father or this king, they will not be able to tolerate the scholars.

Not to mention, the Shi clan really made a bloody investment this time, and they were almost fighting for their lives. ”

"Your Highness means that the Tang Emperor can no longer tolerate the Shi clan? Is this borrowing a knife to kill? Mangbo Jie Sun Bo hurriedly asked.

They are still very concerned about this problem.

If the Tang Emperor indulged the Shi clan to build weapons simply to contain Li Chengqian, this is actually not a good result, but if the Shi clan cannot be tolerated, even if it is to kill people with a knife, at least it shows that the Tang Emperor's malice towards their Royal Highness is still within the tolerable range.

"It's not that I can't tolerate the corporaries." Li Chengqian smiled, "I just want us to lose both of them."

In other words, there is also the intention of forcing out the heritage and ambition of the scholars.

Maybe the scholars themselves saw it and simply gambled, but in the future, the scholars will definitely kill us.

If the King of Shu fails, the scholar clan that has been inherited for thousands of years may really become a thing of the past.

I don't dare to say that I will destroy his clan, but it is inevitable to destroy his inheritance.

Pauling, send someone to inform the two servants, it's time to get ready.

In addition, Wang Dequan was informed that in recent years, we have been like rats moving, smuggling all kinds of books from the Tang Dynasty, including the Four Books and Five Classics, including Hanyu Pinyin, including the Three Character Classics, and a series of books, which can be sold to the outside world.

The price, hehe, no matter what the book, it's all three pennies!

Now that the scholars have made a decision, don't blame this king for digging their roots.

In addition, the process of movable type printing will be passed on.

The king wants a copy of the books they once treasured! ”

"Your Highness, if you really want to do this, the reaction of the Nashi clan will not stop like this." When Yu Chi Baolin heard this, he was immediately startled.

Why are the scholars so arrogant, isn't it because they hold knowledge?

If Li Chengqian really did this, then the knowledge they regarded as forbidden would have spilled into thousands of households as if it had been leaked into thousands of households, and then the accumulation of their scholar clan over the years would inevitably be devastated.

"It's okay, just do what the king says." Li Chengqian shook his head and said, "Since my father wants to persecute the scholars, as the eldest son of my father's most accomplished son, how can I not care?"

As for the Shi clan, they can't be defeated, if there are really smart people in their clan, they must know what is the most precious thing they have inherited over the years.

Even if the king printed those books to everyone, it would not be so easy to shake their foundation.

If the king were them, he would probably disdain them.

It's just them, they've been strong for too many years.

Once you feel that your position is threatened, you will be resentful and resentful.

Maybe this is the so-called thrift to luxury, from luxury to thrift......"

After speaking, Li Chengqian stopped talking.

He actually knew very well that it was actually very difficult to defeat the Shi clan by relying on this, the Shi clan really had to be smart, and he didn't even have any way to do it.

But that doesn't happen.

Because it's human nature.

After controlling culture and education for so many years, they naturally think that they are the only ones who are worthy of controlling knowledge, controlling knowledge, and controlling knowledge.

Over the years, knowledge has become a sword in their hands, and there is no disadvantage.

When everyone saw this, they didn't say more, for over the years, they had developed the habit of believing in their Highness.

"It's time to speed up." As Li Chengqian was talking, he saw Liu San walk in, didn't care about him, but looked at Ma Ye and said, "In this way, Ma Ye, you will send someone south now to pay attention to the movements of Bei Tianzhu at any time."

Zhao Yan, assemble a large army, and be ready to go south at any time.

The county guard of Mangbo informed the army of Ni Bo that if this battle of Ni Bo Luo can drag Xi Tianzhu, this king will have a heavy reward! ”

In the final analysis, Li Chengqian was still in a hurry.

There is no way, once the Shi clan has an attack, he must have sufficient strength and energy to deal with it.

At this juncture, he should withdraw his troops and strictly guard against the warriors.

But now there is a shortage of fresh blood in Tianzhu in China.

The hierarchical structure of the Ming Dynasty has actually been formed, and at this time, the third brother is needed to be at the bottom and become an object that everyone can show off.

Besides, this is also a competition between him and Li Er, although it doesn't matter if you win or lose, who wants to lose?

……

At the same time, on the other side, Gaozhou.

Li Er, like Li Chengqian, is extremely busy.

The two kings are supposed to be qualified to spend time drinking and being unhappy, but as a result, these two are more than the other.

"Your Majesty, allowing the Shi clan to build ordnance will not become a problem for us?" In the palace, the eldest grandson Chong said worriedly.

"It doesn't matter." Li Er said with a smile, "The scholar clan has no shortage of technology in the construction of ordnance, do you think they have never made it privately before?" We just don't know.

But today's ordnance, hehe......

It's no longer what they understand. ”

He really didn't care, the previous ordnance, or the knives, guns and sticks.

But what is the ordnance now, it is a gunpowder bullet, it is an incendiary bomb, ordnance, iterative!

"But what if they also start developing firearms? Or did they also begin to develop newer ordnance? "Changsun Chong is still a little worried.

It is not surprising that there are a few guys who can make firearms in the Tang Dynasty.

"Then let them build it." Li Er smiled, "Do you think it's so simple to develop new ordnance?

Moreover, someone will stop them.

We are now in Gaozhou, what is there to worry about. ”

Research new weapons, hehe, the money invested is not a small amount, he wants the warriors to do this, when the time comes, he will just go to pick peaches.

He may be a little distressed about spending his own money, but if it is said that it is from the Huashi clan, then he is in good spirits.

"Your Majesty, Wei asks for a meeting." At this moment, an attendant came to report.

As soon as he heard that it was Wei Zheng, Li Er waved his hand and said, "Boom out, I'm in a good mood, don't let this old man spoil my good mood!" ”

He knew Wei Zheng too well, and when he heard this, Wei Zheng had to spray a wave, but he was not a cheap person, he knew what Wei Zheng was here for, and asked him to spray a wave.

There is no pit in the brain.

And outside the palace, the inner servants naturally didn't really blast Wei Zheng away when they heard the words.

Although now that this disgraced official has been dismissed, since he can be led by Li Er in the army of the Southern Expedition, who dares to really fall out of favor when he is gone?

At this time, the picture is so fast, and it is almost happy.

But when Wei Zheng stood up again, not to mention whether Wei Zheng would retaliate against them, how could they deal with themselves?

Moreover, even if Wei Zheng is silent, there will always be someone who will speak for Wei Zheng.

So, they won't do this kind of thing.

"Hey...... Your Majesty, this is messing with my Tang Dynasty. Hearing that Li Er didn't see him, Wei Zheng sighed.

Chinese New Year's Eve home was on fire, last night on the street, in fact, it is not to, just want to walk, the last group of friends persuaded me to open a room to deal with one night, and also sent a lot of red envelopes, feelings, hard to say!
