Early in the morning, before dawn, Jiang Ning left the princess's mansion and told Wu Qilan the same advice, although Wu Qilan didn't know what to do, but seeing that Jiang Ning was so cautious, he had to agree first.

Jiang Ning quietly left through the back door and went straight back to the Jiang Mansion.

The second thousand was waiting in front of the door early, and when he saw Jiang Ning coming back, he stepped forward and said, "The person has arrived, waiting for the son in the inner hall." ”

Jiang Ning nodded and walked to the inner hall of the second courtyard, but saw that Guan Sheng, Xu Ning and others were already waiting.

"Liu Ji and hot pot matters, Zhao Lixuan, you have to keep an eye on it, the plan before March must be completed, the store must be rolled out, there is no room for sloppiness, there is something you don't understand, ask the two sisters-in-law, they are very good at this." Jiang Ning entered the house, without greetings, stood at the front, and began to arrange tasks with a straight knife.

"It turns out that Jing'an Division is willing to stay behind the people, Bai Jinyu, you are in charge, now not only to put people in Luoyang's checkpoints, but also to focus on several other state capitals, especially Chengdu Mansion, this is very critical, in this bag, is a code word, as long as someone says it, it is your own people, you are all one-line contact, this is the bottom line, it can't be broken." Jiang Ning took out a bag from his arms and threw it to Bai Jinyu.

"Chihiro, you went to Chengdu Mansion, I already explained to you yesterday, don't make decisions without permission, your task is very heavy, but I believe that you can complete it." Jiang Ning nodded heavily towards the second thousand.

The second Qianxun knew that Jiang Ning was going to Qilian Mountain, and the road he faced was no better than Jinling, and it was even more dangerous, those people were all extremely vicious, and they didn't care who you were or who you were behind them, and if you were caught, you would be killed.

Then, Jiang Ning said to Xu Ning and Pang Qingyun: "You two follow me and go on a long trip, at least two or three months, and at most four or five months." ”

Xu Ning and Pang Qingyun glanced at each other, and couldn't help but chuckle in their hearts, the last time Xu Ning and Jiang Ning went out together, they helped the Sihe Gang destroy the White Tiger Mountain, and this battle today is much bigger than the last time, but I think this time the matter must be very tricky.

"After dinner, we will set off overnight, and you two will go and prepare first." Jiang Ning said again.

Xu Ning and Pang Qingyun went out by themselves, each busy with their own affairs, Xu Ning returned to the restaurant and talked to Su Yun'er about the matter, but Su Yun'er didn't agree, and clamored to go to Liu Sisi to complain, but was stopped by Xu Ning.

Pang Qingyun made a pot of wine, ran to the Wude camp alone, found Di Qing, drank a good meal, and in the afternoon, he returned to the yamen to pack his things.

After the two left, Jiang Ning asked again, "How is the situation over there in Ying Tianfu?" ”

Guan Sheng was the most familiar with the situation in Ying Tianfu, and said: "Now there should be about 1,600 people, and a regiment has been added, and the head of the regiment is Lin Chong, who arrived there ten days ago. ”

"Lin Chong?" Jiang Ning frowned: "Stayed?" ”

Guan Sheng arched his hand and said: "It's still the son's strategy, I just got this news, and Yu Zhongting lived up to the trust, in the end, he left people behind." ”

"Okay, so let's say that there are eight platoons and forty squads under the four regiments, right?" Jiang Ning repeated.

Guan Sheng nodded: "In terms of equipment, according to the deployment of Gongzi years ago, according to the formation of the new Mandarin Duck Formation, the weapons are still sufficient, here in the workshop, with the things that Gongzi got back, plus their pondering, in addition to the equipment used by them, the iron pills are in reserve for ten boxes, each box has a hundred rounds, and 4,800 arrows." ”

"So much?" Jiang Ning was still a little surprised by this number.

Guan Sheng smiled: "Childe's 1,000 taels of silver have worked wonders, someone has developed a set of machines that can run non-stop for twelve hours, and only need the fire in the furnace to keep boiling water and let the steam flow out continuously." ”

"Steam engine?" This was the only word that Jiang Ning thought of, but he didn't say it, but said: "On this day, how much can it produce?" ”

"The day before yesterday, there were more than 300 pieces, but there was only one of them, so the speed was a little slow." Guan Sheng replied.

You must know that a craftsman can only have a hundred arrows a day, and he has to work tirelessly for twelve hours, and now one machine can withstand the workload of three people, which can be said to be a qualitative leap.

"Okay, find a way to move these things to Qingshan, after I leave, you will start to work on this matter, be sure to hide it, in addition, Qingshan will be handed over to you, together with Yu Zhongting, you must recruit 1,200 people within three months, you can make bandits, you can be outcasts, but remember, you must be loyal, if you have two hearts, you can just drive them away, no scruples." Jiang Ning said: "All the guns and arrows and palm mines must be made according to the plan, I have already said hello to the Fengping Building, how much fuel is needed, just go and get it, no one dares to stop the things in the Fengping Building." ”

The so-called palm thunder is the land mine made by Jiangning according to the soil method, and the power is not small, but the production is extremely troublesome, and so far Jiangning has only made more than 30 of them, all of which have been shipped to Qingshan.

"Yes......" Guan Sheng responded.

"As for the money, Zhang Zihan's side is already on the right track, and it shouldn't be a problem." Jiang Ning said: "Within five months, these newly recruited people must form sufficient combat effectiveness, at least to reach the current level." ”

Guan Sheng gasped, this goal should not be achieved.

"Your task is very heavy, there is Yu in the atrium, he is familiar with the road, it should not be a problem, you are a general, and leading the soldiers is also in hand, this task and you, I can't be more assured."

"Anding Gang here, it's just a matter of worrying about the two of you, and you have to worry more about the safety of the Jiang Mansion and some trivial matters."

Liu Laoliu and Zhao Ziheng glanced at each other, and said in unison: "Don't worry, son." ”

Jiang Ning said, and said to everyone: "All things must be in place before May, if the wind is calm, it is the best, if there is wind and grass, I should plan as soon as possible." ”

The crowd dispersed, leaving only the second thousandth of fathoms present.

"Childe, are you really going to come this far?" The second thousand is quite worried.

The reason for going to Chengdu Mansion is very simple, the mountains are high and the water is long, the terrain is rugged, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and there is a natural barrier of the Sword Pavilion, and the land of Chengdu has thousands of miles of fertile fields, there is no shortage of grain and grass, it is a place where soldiers must fight, and now the Cheng family, one of the pillars of the Eight Kingdoms, relied on Chengdu Mansion to start, and now half of the grain and grass on the western border are from the Cheng family.

Jiang Ning sighed: "You also know about me and Princess Changping, and I didn't think about hiding it from you, now the five princes have attacked me, and there are four princes behind me, Gao Yu has been promoted to the cabinet, and now he is sending Dayuan, and after returning from Dayuan, he will have to free up his hands to deal with me, things are much worse than we imagined, so we still have to plan early." ”

"But Childe...... This...... ...... with rebellion" The second Qianhiro finally said the last concern in his heart, isn't it to rebel if he pulls arms like this?

Jiang Ning smiled slightly: "It's not a rebellion, we don't interfere with anyone, we just want to protect ourselves, that's all, others don't come to provoke me." ”

"But once it happens, the first pot in the world and Liu Ji's business ......" The second Qianxun said again: "The imperial court is an order, and it will all be closed......"

"So, everything has to be rushed, we have to get rid of the relationship with me, and we have to tie up with the place, although we use this name, but we have to let them know that it is not a ......store at all," Jiang Ning said.
