Of course, Li Ke can't know what his old Li is doing, I have to say that this cake is made of pure natural materials and white sugar, and it tastes very good! It can be said that it was a first-time success!

At least Jinyang they eat with their eyes shining, compared to all kinds of food, Jinyang they obviously like sweets more, and children like sweets.

However, Li Ke couldn't give them too much to eat.

When Li Ke was making cakes in the palace, a caravan composed of nomads was loaded in a courtyard in Qunxian Square in Chang'an City, and it seemed that they were leaving Chang'an City.

But they didn't notice that a few children were playing here outside the door, and when they saw that they were loading a car and leaving, one of these children left the place quietly.

The rest of the children were still frolicking around.

In a courtyard not far from them, several captains, including the original lieutenant Zhang Xi, were also here.

"The news has been confirmed, these people hurriedly sold all the goods this morning, and then bought a lot of food, cloth and other supplies, saying that they were going to leave tomorrow to return to Murowei, according to the shopkeeper who bought their goods, these people sold goods...... It doesn't seem to be here at all for the maximum profit of the goods. A lieutenant said quickly.

"How many of them are there?" Zhang Xi asked with a sneer.

"The entire caravan is forty-seven in all."

"The five hundred men of the battalion combined with the best are scattered out of the city today, ready with weapons and armor, since they want to find death, then they can't blame us? Those who dare to be unfavorable to His Highness, kill! Zhang Xi said fiercely.

"Yes!"

"Since they are leaving tomorrow, His Highness will hold a road unveiling ceremony outside the Golden Light Gate the day after tomorrow, if they don't have ulterior motives, I don't believe it, have you investigated it clearly in the past few days? Are they colluded with the people in Chang'an City? ”

"No, since they entered Chang'an City, so far, they have not contacted anyone, we have investigated all the people who talk to them, it can't be their spies or something, and the envoys of Goguryeo, Khitan, Murwei and other countries have also been within the scope of our monitoring, and they have nothing abnormal."

"It seems that the purpose of these people has been very confirmed before they came to Chang'an, so they don't need to exchange information with others after they come here, so as to avoid leaking some spies in Chang'an City, but these have nothing to do with us." Zhang Xi pondered for a while and guessed the approximately.

As a lieutenant, Zhang Xi has read some military books, although he doesn't read much, but after following His Royal Highness, in this year's time, he has re-learned a lot, not only literacy, but also a lot of classics he has taught himself to read a lot.

Compared with a year ago, Zhang Xi's height of looking at the problem is naturally much higher.

From the way these people behaved, Zhang Xi immediately guessed that the purpose of their coming to Chang'an was this, and the purpose was clear, so they didn't need to contact other people at all.

In the evening, the group of assassins in Chang'an City had been cleaned up, and everyone was in the courtyard, but they were always watched, but outside Chang'an City, five hundred soldiers with the best skills and few injuries had gathered in several courtyards in the nearby villages.

All of them had a pair of armor next to them, this armor was different from the bright Mingguang armor of the Tang Dynasty, its whole body was made of stainless steel, the thickness was the standard 1.5 mm thick, and the entire chest was about the area covered by a person's ribs, including the back.

Because Li Ke has tested, the previous 3mm stainless steel armor is too thick and not cost-effective.

This monocoque armor is more effective than the Bright Light Armor in terms of protection against blunt weapon attacks.

The inner lining is cowhide, and the shoulder junction is made of stainless steel armor, and the large and small arms below the shoulder also have two hard-shell arms composed of curved steel plates, and the connection is a flexible armor connection method.

The abdomen is also made up of lobster shells, and the skirt armor stretches below the waist, covering about half of the thighs.

The reason why the skirt armor is made of this rigid skirt armor composed of lobster shells is to prevent flirting with the legs. The original Mingguang Armor Skirt Armor has the ability to protect because it is a piece of armor, but if it is kicked up from below, the skirt armor composed of armor pieces will also bounce back with the enemy's power, and the enemy's legs will still hit their own vital points.

But this kind of hard-shell skirt armor, because it will not turn up, the leg kicked up will be directly blocked by the steel armor, and even if there is no protection on the enemy's leg, under the huge force, it is impossible to directly scrap one of the enemy's legs.

The inner part of the skirt armor is composed of two independent leg armor, which, like the arm armor, is a combination of semicircular hard steel armor, and the middle knee part is connected by a nail piece.

Because most of the protective armor, including helmets, is stamped by a water press, the manufacturing speed is much faster than that of the Mingguang armor.

It's just a little cumbersome to wear, and it requires constant training and proficiency.

The protective area of this armor is larger than the original Mingguang armor, but the overall weight is almost the same, and because it is cast from stainless steel, its protection ability is several levels higher than that of iron armor.

At least now when the heavy armor in various countries is ironclad, the bow and crossbow with armor-piercing arrows at close range can be penetrated, but the 1.5 mm thick stainless steel armor, even at close range, the bow and crossbow can not penetrate completely, even if it penetrates, it is basically no lethality, because it still has a layer of cowhide lining inside.

The weapons in their hands, the Tang knives and arrows were all made of stainless steel, and the arrows, all of which were made of triangular armor-piercing steel arrows.

And this part of the Tang knife is the first batch of Tang knives after being folded and forged hundreds of times with a water press, mainly to see how much the performance can be improved, and whether it is worth continuing to forge in the future.

"Tomorrow, when they leave Chang'an City, they will do it directly, no matter where they are going to stay and sneak back to Chang'an City, we will ambush them directly here!" Zhang Xi pointed directly to a local road on a map near Chang'an City.

It is less than ten miles from Chang'an City, there is a hill nearby, there are places where people can be hidden on both sides of the official road, and the nearest village is not close to the left and right sides.

"Yes!" Everyone shouted.

"Remember, give them a chance to surrender at the beginning, and if they resist, kill them on the spot! These are the five leaders who were found through observation, and these five people are going to live. Zhang Xi handed five stacks of white paper to the lieutenant below.

The blank paper is drawn by the painters of Yuelai Trading Company with sketches, and after reading these sketches, I can basically confirm it immediately after looking at it.

"Understood!"

"Rest now, and go into lurking tomorrow morning."
