Chapter 365
When Li Shimin heard this, he couldn't help but think of his dream of conquering Liaodong, and he was so excited.
Su Cheng said disdainfully, "What a big deal," he was so angry for a long time. Su Cheng actually despised him?"
However, now he finally understood where Su Cheng had the confidence to despise him!
Because of the musket!
With muskets and cannons, is that still a problem in Liaodong?
Conquering Liaodong, he was very excited when he thought of conquering Liaodong. He was the unprecedented Tiankang Khan. The former Sui Dynasty died due to conquering Liaodong. If he conquered Liaodong again, it would certainly be considered to have created an eternal great cause!
If Su Cheng knew what Li Shimin was thinking, he would definitely be very contemptuous and would be the emperor of the ages. Look at your prospects.
The world map is for you in vain, right?
Su Cheng's words mean something, but others couldn't hear it at all, because Li Shimin's dream of conquering Liaodong had been told to Su Cheng in addition to the queen.
After hearing Su Cheng's words, the others just thought Su Cheng was flattering, and the flattery was very good, and they went to the emperor's heart.
Seeing that Li Shimin was already happy, Su Cheng felt it was necessary to give him a basin of cold water to calm down.
"I am not unwilling to promote muskets to the entire army. But now the muskets have just been developed, and the manufacturing capacity of the firearm monitor is limited. It would be great if I could make two or three hundred bullets a month." Su Cheng smiled.
Cheng Yaojin, Hou Junji and others were stunned when they heard this. What's the point?
Such a sharp weapon can only be built in two or three thousand a year, so it can only be assembled into the entire army in the year of the monkey and horses? Not to mention assembling into the entire army, it is only difficult to assemble the Shenji Camp.
Li Shimin also understood that today's craftsmen who use firearms to monitor both firearms have to build both cannons and muskets, so naturally there is not enough manpower.
However, since the muskets are to be assembled to the entire army, the bows and arrows will be eliminated, so a large number of bows and arrows that make bows and arrows can naturally be drawn to the firearm prison.
Li Shimin waved his hand and said, "Don't worry about the problem of manpower. I will draw craftsmen to the firearm prison as soon as possible. Just open your mouth if you need anything. You must create tens of thousands of muskets a year!"
The muskets completely conquered Li Shimin. Su Cheng smiled and said, "Your Majesty, don't be anxious. In fact, the minister who has added a bayonet is just a conceivable. The firearm surveillance has not been manufactured yet, and it still needs to be developed."
"I will never be stingy with the rewards of craftsmen who have stepped up their research and development, and have made contributions!" Li Shimin was proud and expressed his importance to muskets.
Li Jing pondered: "Your Majesty, the power and range of the musket are amazing, but the specific effect of using it on the battlefield and how it is used needs to be verified. We cannot easily change the army."
Li Jing was talking about old-fashioned and polite words. Su Cheng had no objection and smiled and said, "I think what Duke Wei said is reasonable, so assemble it to Shenjiying first to try the effect."
Everyone nodded after hearing this. The emergence of muskets and artillery is undoubtedly a subversion of the existing military formation tactics. How to use it remains to be figured out. If the entire army is rashly changed, it may be a disaster if they are not familiar with the use.
Li Shimin nodded and said, "Well, what the pharmacist said is, first assemble the Shenji Camp, then practice it for everyone, and then assemble it on a small scale to the border town, let them experiment and summarize their experience. You can't be too hasty when changing the clothes on a large scale."
How did the experience come about? Of course it was made!
It is impossible to change the clothes on a large scale, after all, the production capacity is there. Su Cheng still admires Li Jing and others' rigor.
"I don't know if Tubo will do anything. Xue Yantuo has been restless recently. There are many opportunities for experimentation!" Li Shimin said with a smile.
The eyes of the generals were lit up, and the power and range of the musket made people feel itchy. Who wouldn't want to try this new weapon on the battlefield?
"Your Majesty, war is a bad thing. The firearms made by Su Cheng are indeed sharp. Now the sea is peaceful and the people live and work in peace. If Your Majesty takes great force because of the firearms and is strong and powerful, it is not a blessing for the country. I hope Your Majesty thinks twice!"
Su Cheng knew who such a discordant voice was without guessing.
I have to say that Wei Zheng is really tough!
I had to give Li Er a blow when he was so excited.
This is so exciting!
Although Su Cheng repeatedly criticized Li Er and liked to play tricks on Li Er, he felt that he was still sensible and was not as silly as Wei Zheng.
As for his scolding Li Er, that was an accident.
Sure enough, Li Shimin, who was originally excited and flushed, suddenly froze his face, and his expression was like swallowing a fly.
"Since I ascended the throne, I have always advocated rest and recuperation. Although I have also been in operation, it is also for the stability of the border town. How can I say that I am fighting for military force?" Li Shimin said in a deep voice.
I really don’t know what Wei Zheng would react if he let Wei Zheng know that Li Shimin planned to conquer Liaodong?
Will Li Shimin drown with spit?
Su Cheng smiled and said, "As the saying goes, if you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your weapons. Whether it is muskets or cannons, it is all about strengthening military strength."
"From ancient times to the present, the west has never stopped. Even if you don't hit others, you have to beware of others coming to attack us. Muskets and cannons can make our Tang Dynasty less dead. I think this is a good thing!"
Wei Zheng said seriously: "The benefits of firearms are of course a good thing for our people of the Tang Dynasty, but I am afraid that Your Majesty and the generals in the court will frequently launch wars because of the benefits of firearms, which will ruin this great prosperous era." Wei Zheng said earnestly.
Although Wei Zheng was willing to say it, Li Er's face was still not good-looking.
This is in Shenji Camp. As the host, Su Cheng can't watch the atmosphere stiffen.
"You are a wise ruler who is comparable to Yao and Shun. There are also ministers like Master Wei who speak out like this in the court, and they will only last forever." Su Cheng smiled.
Fang Xuanling smiled and said, "Yes, yes, Su Cheng said it well. Your Majesty works hard to govern. We old ministers are happy and sleeping at night. I just hope that this prosperous age will last!"
Li Shimin's expression finally improved, and he smiled and said, "I think I am not the tyrant who is as powerful as Emperor Yang of Sui!"
Everyone laughed, and the atmosphere eased again.
"Take me a look at the musket. I still looked down on it at that time. It was like a fire stick. I didn't expect it to be a magic weapon!" Li Shimin's eyes fell on the musket in Su Cheng's hand.
After being interrupted by Wei Zheng, Li Shimin's excitement finally calmed down a little and focused on the musket.
Not only Li Shimin, everyone's eyes fell on the muskets. After watching Su Cheng's shooting, they thought this thing seemed quite interesting.
