Datang: My father is the head bodyguard

At the court meeting, Liu Zhenghui, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, was the first to attack: "Your Majesty! Now [-]% of the workshops of the Prince Consort are in the hands of the royal family, but the money and food of the Ministry of Revenue are still insufficient. Your Majesty is a wise king who can allocate the money from the internal funds to Hubu, if Your Majesty encounters a tyrant in ten thousand years, how will the court deal with it?"

Li Shimin was a little angry. Those workshop members were given to the royal family by his son-in-law, not stolen.

Seeing that Li Shimin remained silent, Liu Zhenghui winked at Wei Zheng. Wei Zheng also went out and said: "Your Majesty, I second the proposal. Why not hand over some of the factory workers who are related to the national destiny to the Ministry of Household Affairs, so that they can be directly managed by the court."

At this time, in Chang'an City, a horse was galloping on the straight road, with a red tassel standing on the helmet on his head. As soon as the soldiers guarding the city gate saw the red tassel, they immediately opened the city gate and evacuated the people entering the city.

"Songzhou and Suoyang have been victorious, and the city has been recovered! The mighty thunder of the heavenly army came down from the sky and wiped out more than [-] enemies without any casualties! The mighty thunder from the heavenly army fell from the sky and wiped out more than [-] enemies without any casualties!" Hong The messengers continued to shout loudly without slowing down.

The people along the street were very happy when they heard about the victory and stood on the street and shouted. "The Tang Dynasty will be victorious! The Tang Dynasty will be victorious!"

The red feather cavalry galloped all the way into the Chengtian Gate and entered the palace city. They took out the military report and the last bottle of energy water from their horse pockets in advance. He got off his horse and rushed all the way into Tai Chi Hall.

At this time, the important ministers who were admonishing stopped talking and waited silently for the military report brought by the red feather messenger. After all, the military report from the border army was as big as the sky.

"Report! Great victory in Songzhou and Suoyang! Tianwei's army wiped out more than [-] enemies each outside the city. Tianwei's army suffered no casualties!" As Wang De took the military report sealed with fire paint from the messenger, he drew He uncorked the glass bottle and drank heavily.

Li Shimin was reading the military report when the messenger shouted again: "The defenders in Songzhou and Suoyang City will defend for nine days. The Lord General of Songzhou will donate the military rations in the city to the fleeing people. He will lead 80 city defenders to escort [-] messenger soldiers. Chang'an, unfortunately died in battle. Less than [-] of more than [-] people returned to Songzhou City. The gate of Suoyang City was knocked open, and the lord of Suoyang City led a thousand soldiers to block the city gate and kill the enemy bravely, using their bodies to protect them. We stayed at the city gate and waited for the reinforcements from the Mighty Heavenly Army to arrive."

Li Shimin looked at the military newspaper with tears in his eyes. "It's me, it's me who was too slow. If it were the mighty Heavenly Army, if it could have been earlier..."

Li Shimin stood up and carefully placed the general's newspaper on the imperial case. After collecting his emotions, he said: "I want to bury the soldiers of the two cities generously, and their family members and children's pensions will be doubled! I have money, I have a lot of money! Who dares to do this? You stretched out your hands randomly in this matter, don't blame my sword for being too sharp!" He then left the Tai Chi Hall holding the military report.

Upon seeing this, Wang De shouted directly: "Retreat!"

Cheng Yaojin, Li Jing and other generals immediately went outside the Manlu Palace to wait for Li Shimin to call them. They knew that the Tianwei Army's military discipline, military appearance, and military might were all the best among the best, and were unparalleled in the entire Tang Dynasty. But here, 500 people annihilated more than [-] enemies, which is still shocking. Although it is a bit exaggerated to say that the enemy was annihilated twice in total.

Li Shimin asked Wang De to call them in. Everyone looked at Li Shimin and wanted to get an answer, an answer they didn't want to believe.

"The military report is true, Black Face wrote it himself. It's not just that, take a look." Li Shimin handed out the copied military report. He had already had the original framed and hung in the Manna Hall. Use it to remind yourself that there is no small matter at the border.

The generals looked at the military report and really couldn't understand it. Although Yuchi Jingde was very strong in leading troops, he was not so strong. Could it be Yuchi Baoqi? Maybe it was because of his unique moves against the enemy that he achieved this battle-loss ratio.

Li Jing still didn't believe it, so he raised his hands and asked: "Your Majesty, I still can't believe this military report. Please clarify my doubts."

Li Shimin said: "New weapons, weapons that none of you have seen. My son-in-law made them, and I have tried them." Li Shimin gave up.

Cheng Yaojin was immediately fooled: "I don't believe it, old Cheng. What new weapon can create this situation? Is it possible that the Tianwei Army can defeat the Tibetan coalition with that weapon?"

Li Shimin smiled: "I told you that I have used them, and my evaluation is that they are invincible in the world. Currently, we only have 500 Tianwei Army equipped. I can't think of any army that can challenge the [-] Tianwei Army head-on. ."

Li Jing was already shocked: "A mere 500 people? Can they attack the three major camps head-on? This is impossible!"

Li Shimin waved his hand: "Instead of the three major battalions going up together, any one of the three major battalions has [-] soldiers. If the supplies are sufficient and we attack head-on, the Tianwei Army has no chance of losing."

Cheng Yaojin couldn't wait: "Your Majesty, you might as well let us see the new weapons. We can learn from them."

Li Shimin was a little confused: "Didn't Chu Liang go to work as a pawn in the Tianwei Army? He didn't tell you?"

Cheng Yaojin suddenly shouted: "What! Your Majesty, you said that Chu Liang is in the Tianwei Army now? This bastard told me to go to Jiangnan for fun! This can't be done, it can't be done, ah, you little bastard!" Cheng Yaojin looked at Ganlu. The furnishings in the temple, now I really want to smash everything in front of me.

Li Shimin was also very surprised: "You mean Chu Liang joined the Tianwei Army behind your back? Bao Qi told me that you asked him to go?"

Cheng Yaojin's face was already darker than Yuchi Jingde's: "This little brat, I will break his legs when he comes back!"

Li Jing saw that there was still no information about the new weapon: "Your Majesty, I wonder if you can give us a look at this new weapon?"

Li Shimin touched his beard and wondered: "That guy told me before he left that he couldn't take you to see it until he comes back."

Seeing that there was no chance, Li Jing said, "Your Majesty, you can just describe the power of the weapon."

Li Shimin nodded, this is okay. "The first type is called a firearm. It looks like a crossbow but is not a crossbow. It does not fire arrows. The things fired by the crossbow are called bullets. After loading, even a child can pull the trigger to fire the bullets. Range Well, it’s about four miles, and it can fire up to eight bullets in a row. Reloading is also very fast, just take out the bullet clips prepared in advance, take out the original clips in the gun and put in the loaded ones.”

Cheng Yaojin was a little confused: "We have seen this gun before. It is used to stab people. How can it still fire and shoot four miles away?"

Li Shimin said: "This gun is not that gun, so I said to change the name, but he will not change it. What do you think of calling it Tianwei Gun? That's great, right? That kid doesn't want to live or die."

Li Jing is also the key question: "Your Majesty's firearm fires eight rounds in a row. Is there an interval in between? Is the interval long?"

Li Shimin smiled and said: "The interval can be long or short. The faster you pull the trigger, the shorter the interval will be. If you don't pull the trigger, he will never fire it no matter what."

Li Jing was a little surprised: "Isn't it possible to fire eight bullets at once?"
