Don't be a prince

At this time, in the big tent of the Chinese army, Li Jing was facing Guan Fangtu, while drinking a small wine, he repeatedly compared his arrangements.

Deploying border guards is not a trivial matter. Once such a major event occurs today, although the family will not be wiped out, death will still be inevitable.Moreover, his arrogance as a "Military God" also made him not allow mistakes in his arrangements.

The curtain of the tent was lifted, and the family general came in and said: "Patriarch, Mr. Li Gang is here to visit."

"Mr. Li?"

Li Jing was slightly surprised, and immediately got up and went out to meet him.

At the door of the tent, Old Li Gang was sitting in a wheelchair, waiting to go in.

Seeing that Li Jing wanted to go around and push the cart, Li Gang raised his hand to decline, and pushed the wheelchair into the big tent by himself.

The family offered tea, but the old man declined.Lifting the teapot in his arms, Li Gang stretched out his hand to pour a cup for Li Jing, and said, "Pharmacist, come and taste this, this is the tea made by the prince, it still had a grassy smell before, but after he stir-fried it once , the grassy smell is much lighter. Compared with tea soup, this tea does not know how much better to drink."

Li Jing took the teacup with a bow, tasted it, and exclaimed: "As Master Li said, it is indeed better than tea soup."

Putting down the cup, finding a stool to sit down, Li Jing asked straight to the point: "Master Li doesn't rest at night, come to see me, but what's the matter?"

Li Gang's wrinkled old face smiled slightly: "That's true. I heard that the generals of the Manchu Dynasty, including the emperor, are the only ones who guessed that the Turkic people might attack aggressively, and raid all the way to the Weishui River?"

Li Jing nodded and said: "I'm ashamed to say that I originally wanted to bring my family to demolish the temporary bridge, but in order to prevent the emperor's suspicion, I gave up on it. Unexpectedly, His Royal Highness directly led the artisans and soldiers to manufacture a large number of fake eight-ox crossbows. It even frightened the Turkic soldiers and horses. It is no exaggeration to say that the prince is the first to do this."

Li Gang nodded, and said seriously: "This is the purpose of this old man coming to you, pharmacist, this old man knows that you, who have a long history of family education, think highly of yourself, which can be seen from the fact that you have not taken any apprentices so far. But , Now that the Tang Dynasty is stable internally, the civil strife may not easily recur, even if you start accepting disciples, you don't have to worry about being implicated. Is what the old man said right?"

Li Jing is not stupid, just these two sentences of dialogue, he already understood the reason why Li Gang came to visit.

"It's just, Master Li, do you think it's appropriate to accept the crown prince as an apprentice?"

In fact, Li Jing did not resist passing on the art to the prince.However, as the crown prince, so what if the prince has learned the art of war?Is it still possible to go to the battlefield?And when the prince becomes the emperor in the future, there will be even less possibility of going out.

Li Gang sighed and said: "The old man came to you. To be honest, I really care for the prince and want to seek your ability for him. But Pharmacist, you had a hard time a while ago! Have you ever thought about why? Qiu Xinggong also didn't make a clear statement, but he didn't end up like you?"

Li Jing pondered for a while, then sighed and said: "I guess it's because I'm innocent! I'm not boasting, I learned from my uncle's place, and I can be safe in the world. Now I am in the position of Wei Guogong, it's like It's on His Majesty's old road. It's just that one of us is a prince and the other is just a courtier."

Li Gang nodded in agreement.

It is a kind of sadness for the emperor to be unsealable, but why not for this person who is unsealable?

Li Jing is not Li Shimin, even if he has accumulated to the top due to his achievements, not many people think that he will rebel.

However, just because there are not many people does not mean that there are none.

When a person reaches middle age, he sits in the position that only the elderly deserve, which is a great exaltation.

Therefore, for Li Jing at this time, nothing is more important than expressing his opinion.

Family art of war is indeed precious, but it is not worth it to exchange for the trust of the royal family and wealth for generations.

With a sigh, Li Jing had already made a decision.

Standing up, Li Jing bowed to Li Gang and said, "On the day when he returns to court, Li Jing will invite the crown prince himself."

Li Gang smiled and nodded.

Wei Guogong, an official position that is both a title and an official position, is itself a first-class official.Li Jing invited himself to the honorary position of the first-rank prince and Taibao, which was the best step for the emperor.

Not only offset the credit this time, but also expressed his position to the emperor.More importantly, with the prince's relationship, at least the next generation of Duke Wei's mansion will be safe.

No one knew what happened in the big tent of the Chinese army, Li Chengqian didn't know, the old man personally went to find Li Jing for him.

He was in a state of intoxication, and fell into a mess of dreams.

In the first half of the night, I was still dreaming about the scene of riding a bicycle to deliver food, and at midnight I dreamed about the plot of being a prince.

But in the middle of the night, he actually dreamed that he succeeded to the throne and became the emperor, and then he was trapped in the tender nest of the beauties in the harem, and he was very happy...

"call!"

The fur quilt was lifted, and Li Chengqian woke up covered in sweat.

Reaching out to pat his face, Li Chengqian was instantly annoyed.

It's over, he clearly wants to leave the crater of the crown prince, and be an idle prince, what kind of one-handedness is playing with his blood when he is idle and has nothing to do!

It's good now, after bragging about this incident, his position as the crown prince is estimated to have been consolidated again.

How can this be done!

It was not fully lit outside the tent, but Li Chengqian still put on his clothes, got up, and walked out of the tent.

Thanks to the drunkenness, his biological clock was set back on track just as it was about to go out of order.

Although it was not dawn, many people in the barracks had already woken up.

Fires had already started in the kitchens of the Imperial Army and Fubing camps, and the guards who had finished the night shift were handing over to Tongze.

And in the open space outside the barracks, the passionate craftsmen took another night shift under the light of the bonfire.

There are already a lot of equipment parts on the open space.As long as things like Chang'an's standard rivets are brought over, the delayed construction plan of the prince's military barracks can continue to be implemented.

Chapter 50 The art of military training

Seeing the prince walk out of the tent, the two guards on duty at the entrance of the tent followed closely.From beginning to end, their hands never left the handle of the knife.

These are two unfamiliar faces, not the guards of the Eastern Palace.But Li Chengqian knew that these two were probably "guards with swords in front of the imperial court", and even in the barracks, the royal family would not relax their vigilance against the outside world.

Seeing the prince approaching from a distance, the craftsman carrying the wood put down the stake in his hand and performed a funny etiquette.

I reached out and touched the wooden post, but I didn't find any burrs.

Li Chengqian said with emotion: "Your craftsmanship is really worth mentioning. To be honest, I even want to leave a few to make utensils for the military camp."

The black-faced man carrying the stake said with a silly smile: "His Royal Highness is so praised, I don't even know what to say. My name is Liu Laosi, and my home is in Andefang. In the future, if His Royal Highness has a life, I will put it down immediately." work here."

Looking at the foolishly smiling Liu Laosi, Li Chengqian did not expect that his operation would make these craftsmen so grateful.

Waving his hands to signal him to continue working, Li Chengqian strolled around the construction site with his hands behind his back, watching the craftsmen work while enjoying their respectful etiquette.

In the past, he was just a hard-working delivery man, one of the lowest people in the city.Now that he was born with a golden spoon in his mouth through time travel, he is actually a bit obsessed with being respected and being greeted cordially wherever he goes.

A tent stood alone on the open space, and the lights were lit inside.

Li Chengqian came closer and found that Yan Liben was drawing pictures inside.

The original drawings were all sketches, and there was no detailed drawing on how to make each part.It's just roughly marked where the connection is dead and where it needs to be active.And Yan Liben, at this time, was drawing the finished product and sealing it in a bag beside him.

Walking into the tent, Li Chengqian said with a smile: "Yan Qing is really working hard. In fact, you don't need to draw pictures. They are all drawn on a whim, and they are not important."

Yan Liben rubbed his panda eyes, wanted to stand up but his feet were numb, and sat back down again.

Li Chengqian signaled that he didn't need to be too polite, and sat across from him to start looking at Yan Liben's drawings.

Patting the bag, Yan Liben said solemnly: "Before last night, maybe there was no need to be serious, but after Wei Guogong read it, he repeatedly told his subordinates not to let the drawings leak out. Wei Guogong also said that he, in these drawings, I have seen the art of military training. What you said about messing around is likely to become the top secret of Datang."

"puff!"

Li Chengqian suddenly laughed.

What?

Datang's top secret?

Just these equipment?Is there any mistake, just the equipment for exercising is top secret?In that case, the sports plaza of future generations will have to be strictly guarded!

Seeing that Li Chengqian was still disapproving, Yan Liben said solemnly: "Duke Wei has already said that tomorrow he will ask His Majesty to check these equipments in person. Your Highness must not underestimate yourself anymore. Even a master of military art like Wei Gong is so dignified. It's definitely not easy."

Seeing Yan Liben's solemn expression, Li Chengqian fell into deep thought.

Thinking about Yutai's original method of training soldiers, maybe, what he took for granted was really important to Datang?

When the daylight illuminates the ground, the departure of the night enters a state of acceleration.

As soon as Li Chengqian specified a few mistakes in the drawings, the sky was already bright.

Yu Tai had another good night's sleep, and with the horizontal knife drawn in his hand, he appeared at the door of Yan Liben's tent full of energy.

"Young Supervisor Yan Liben, I will follow you until you return to Chang'an, no problem."

The panda-eyed Yan Liben nodded at this time as if relieved, and handed over the drawings he had sorted out to Yu Tai.

Li Chengqian tapped Yu Tai's horizontal knife helplessly with a brush, and said dissatisfiedly: "Take back the horizontal knife, who are you scaring! Tell you, Yan Liben is alone, don't play with your general prestige!"

As soon as he met Li Chengqian, Yu Tai couldn't maintain his serious expression, and looked at the prince jokingly, Yu Tai laughed and said, "It's better to advise Your Highness to go to the venue, Your Majesty is still in a hangover, but Hearing Duke Wei's report, he insisted on getting up."

Li Chengqian yelled that something was wrong, and hurriedly left Yan Liben's tent.

It was still a busy open space before dawn, and there was no sign of a craftsman at this time.

At this time, in the open space inside the barracks, all the craftsmen were squatting on the ground, surrounded by soldiers with unsheathed knives.

In the training ground, Li Jing was wearing a tunic and was trying out the equipment that he stood up yesterday.

There is nothing to say about the rope ladder, the hoop and the iron rod, even Li Jing tried it very hard.

After completing most of the rock climbing wall, Li Jing climbed up the bare pole foolishly without using a safety rope, and then climbed to the top and looked down at the ten-meter-high bottom, looking heavy.

Under the big iron ring, the generals all had the same dignified expression, and some even took off their armor impatiently, wanting to try it out.

Seeing Li Chengqian approaching, Li Shimin, who also took off his armor, immediately asked, "Chengqian, tell father that you drew pictures for the supervisor to make?"

Li Chengqian nodded, and asked cautiously: "Is there something wrong?"

Li Shimin asked suddenly: "Why did you make these things?"

For the answer to this question, Li Chengqian had already thought about the answer early in the morning.

"Of course it's because I thought about it. When Yu Tai trained Erchen to run, Erchen discovered that the human body is plastic. I was tired from running at the beginning, but as long as I persisted, I would be able to run more and more. To compare, Is it the same for high jumping, climbing, etc.? The one in the barracks yesterday, called Sky Monkey, proved my conjecture. When he was very young, he always climbed trees to dig out bird nests. After he got used to it, he was given a tree. Trees, even if there are no branches, he can climb up quickly. These things made by the boy are designed to make the soldiers run faster, climb faster, jump higher, and have greater strength."

After hearing Li Chengqian's words, the generals all became thoughtful.

The human body is very plastic?Indeed!There is nothing mysterious about this shitty military training technique.

A seven-year-old child can think of it running and running, but they still regard this technique as a unique skill, which is really shameful!

At the climbing wall, Li Jing didn't go down the slope, but retreated the same way.He still didn't use the rope, but his figure was like a ghost. After a few turns and shifts, he easily retreated from a height of ten meters.

This forceful skill has definitely been practiced!

Witnessing Li Jing's skill with his own eyes, Li Chengqian was ready to move.

A good man should have a martial arts dream. It's too rough to slash all dissatisfied like Yu Tai.Someone like Li Jing who doesn't show off his mountains and doesn't show his water is the king!

Chapter 51 Raise Your Own Soldiers

When he came in front of the crowd, Li Jing took the towel from the general, wiped off his sweat, and said seriously: "It is indeed a military training technique, although the other equipment has not been assembled, but the effect can be deduced by looking at the blueprint. Soldiers trained with these equipment will definitely not lose to the army of the camp, tiger and leopard cavalry!"

Just when the general and the emperor got excited, Li Jing changed the subject again: "But at the same time, this kind of exercise consumes the most energy. If you only eat rice, you can't stand the toss. At least, the crown prince's military training The technique cannot be extended to the army of the whole Tang Dynasty in a short time."

"That's it."

Li Shimin stroked his bearded chin, and when Li Jing affirmed the prince's military training skills, he had already dreamed of leading this army to fight to the end of the sky.However, what he said later poured cold water on him.

It's no wonder that Lu Bu's camp and Cao Cao's tiger and leopard riders were not many.

Just imagine, even if the imperial court personally pays for it, how many elites like this can be cultivated?What's more, with the current Fubing system, it may not necessarily be a good thing to promote it.

Seeing his father touching his chin, Li Chengqian panicked.

This bastard, isn't he thinking about killing people?

Looking at those helpless craftsmen, Li Chengqian hurriedly said: "Father, my son has made arrangements for this matter, I don't know if I should say it or not."

Li Shimin turned his head, lowered his head again, looked at his son, and said, "But it's okay to talk!"

Li Chengqian pointed to the craftsmen and said: "These craftsmen have all participated in the production of equipment. It can be said that they already have some experience. Since the father is worried about leaking secrets, it is better to put them under the jurisdiction of the general supervisor and make them later. All entrusted to them. The soldiers of the ministers can also break away from the Fubing system, as an existence between the Fubing and the family generals, no longer go home to farm, and accept unified management. It is speculated that the art of training soldiers is not as good as seeing them personally. As you can see, let's wait for the personal soldiers of the servants to have achieved results, then how about accepting the review of the father?"

After speaking in one breath, Li Chengqian looked at his father expectantly.He was really afraid that this guy would have a sudden brain twitch and come up with a secrecy measure or something.

amazed....

A look of astonishment appeared on everyone's face. They never thought that the crown prince had already made a complete set of arrangements in such a short period of time.

Break away from the Fubing system and become an existence between Fubing and Family General?

Bring these craftsmen under the jurisdiction of the general supervisor?

If they hadn't clearly known that the prince was only seven years old, they would have wondered if this was an arrangement made by Fang Xuanling.
