Chapter 272 Unpredictable King's Heart (3, Please Subscribe!)
Order Anbei City to do its best to prevent the invasion of the Eastern Turks.
Li Er said lightly.
It gave a definition of the crisis in the north.
Only defend, not attack!
It seems that Dingxiang City and Changguan City have been completely abandoned.
This is not something a wise monarch can do at all.
Even, this is not something Li Er can do.
In the eyes of the courtiers, no matter how stupid Li Er is!
It is impossible to bear the invasion of foreign enemies and the fall of the country.
After all, this is a matter of principle.
But the fact is that Li Er is on this matter.
Uncharacteristically indifferent.
You know, once the Eastern Turkic army entered Yixiantian and broke through Anbei City.
That is tantamount to breaking into the hinterland of the Central Plains. 29
At that time, burning, killing, looting and doing all kinds of crimes will definitely be an unimaginable disaster for the people of the Central Plains.
In the current situation, it is not an exaggeration to say that the knife is already on the neck!
But this Li Er......
Could it be that Li Er has another trump card in his hand?
All the civil and military officials were secretly guessing.
But when they thought of Li Shan from before.
Qiqi wailed in his heart.
Hunjun, Hunjun, just stop tossing about, okay?
Changsun Wuji, Wei Zheng, and a group of ministers from the Ministry of War, and a group of generals.
All of them have written to Li Er time and time again, telling him not to hesitate, and quickly dispatching troops and generals to reinforce Anbei City!
No matter how bad it is, I have to meet those deserters who retreated in Dingxiang City.
But Li Er, without exception, withheld all of them, acting like he did his own thing.
What makes everyone feel uneasy is that.
A group of civil and military officials urged Li Er to send troops.
On the contrary, Li Er was more concerned about another matter, the source of the eight-ox crossbow in Zhang Yan's hand.
It is said that within three days, there must be a result.
But it doesn't give everyone a chance at all.
Strict investigation!
The Ministry of War, the Ministry of Punishment, Dali Temple, and the intelligence department are all in charge of the water.
All were ordered to investigate the matter strictly.
Moreover, Li Er also made a special name call.
The Ministry of War and the Ministry of Industry are responsible for the production, supervision and management of the eight-ox crossbow.
He actually allowed the rebel to possess the eight-ox crossbow without knowing it.
He also asked him to give and receive in private and pass it on to Li Jing.
Even if it has nothing to do with the production of the eight-ox crossbow.
A serious crime of oversight must also be confirmed.
For a moment, the entire court was once again enveloped in an atmosphere of turmoil.
In fact, this matter speaks for itself.
The Ministry of War and the Ministry of Industry have wronged grandma's house for this matter!
The eight-ox crossbow is the number one weapon in the army, what is his situation?
Doesn't Li Erhui know?
Since the pre-Sui period, the eight-ox crossbow has been invented, but the eight-ox crossbow at that time was only the initial version.
Later, Zhang Yan made an improvement, which not only saves time and effort in operation, but also increases the power by more than two times.
It was at that time that the Dayan firm became the No. 1 firm in Datang.
Datang in order to save the production process and cost!
I specially reached an agreement with Zhang Yan, the Duke of Zhenguo, to exclusively authorize Dayan to make the eight-ox crossbow.
Produce eight-ox crossbows for the imperial court at the lowest cost price.
As a condition, the Datang military will also be responsible for the security of the Dayan Company in Datang.
At the same time, the eight-ox crossbow produced by Dayan Company is strictly prohibited from being sold outside, except for the supply to the imperial court and the armed Three Thousand Crows Killing Army.
This rule has been maintained until more than a year ago, when Zhen Guogong's three thousand crow killing army "retired".
After that, the Dayan Company was banned from making the eight-ox crossbow, and it was handed over to the Ministry of Industry for self-production and sales!
These are official matters that can be put on the table.
Up to Li Er, down to the three provinces and six ministries, each monastery and division, they are all clear.
As soon as the military report from Dingxiang City arrived, everyone's minds were cleared.
There is no doubt that the so-called eight-ox crossbows in Li Jing's hands came from this way.
Then last time, when they attacked the East Turks, the Three Thousand Crows killed the army's supplies.
Sealed in Dingxiang City.
Then Li Jing found it, took it out, and became the trump card to prevent the fall of Dingxiang City.
They don't even believe this, Li Erhui can't guess 553!
Logically speaking, using the enemy's weapon to help oneself deal with other enemies.
This should be a good thing.
Li Er should feel happy.
But obviously!
Li Er deliberately pretended to be stupid, and simply took this matter as a sharp knife.
Directly point to the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Industry!
Who can hang out in the officialdom of the Tang Dynasty is not a fox who has cultivated to become a master and has attained the Tao.
If this is still not apparent, Li Er intends to take this opportunity to force the Ministry of War to obediently draw a line with Zhang Yan.
Using their hands, slander Zhang Yan and spread rumors that he has long been guilty of evil.
And use it to show his loyalty to Li Er.
Kill two birds with one stone... No! It should be three birds with one stone!
The destructive power of this evil dragon is becoming more and more terrifying.
Unfortunately!
It is obviously impossible for God's eyes to stand on Li Er's side.
Just when the officials were in panic all day long.
A series of bad news, like a violent storm, hit the court!.
