Datang: Acting as a celestial mystery at the beginning

After a while, Li Jing came to the hall and saw that Pei Ju and Du Ruhui were there. He cupped his hands and saluted, and said, "Your Majesty, I have something to report. I heard that Duke Du wants to replace the weapons in the army. I think this is a waste of money." , We have just replaced a batch of weapons in our army, and I don’t think it’s necessary.”

As if he had found a bosom friend, Pei Ju hurriedly said: "General Li is very true, please think twice, Your Majesty, don't just listen to other people's lies and waste money."

Unexpectedly, Pei Ju and Li Jing strongly opposed the simple change of weapons.

If things go on like this, not only will we not be able to exchange weapons, but we will also be unable to purchase food, no way!

"Pei Gong, General Li, you don't know how good the weapon to be replaced this time will be."

Du Ruhui saw Li Shimin's thoughts, and took the initiative to say: "Your Majesty, I beg you to show Pei Gong and General Li the latest weapons that our Ministry of War has acquired."

Li Jing asked: "Could it be that Du Gong got some magic weapon?"

He has been in the army for so many years and was a famous God of War during the Sui and Tang Dynasties. What kind of weapon has he never seen?

The weapons currently used by soldiers of the Tang Dynasty are brand new, sharp and hard, and of high quality. They are the best weapons he has seen so far and can be used on a large scale in the army.

Chapter 44

"I'm ready!"

Li Shimin remembered that Mr.'s hunting knife was still in the Ministry of War, and he had to take it out to show them, so as to silence their mouths.

With His Majesty's consent, Du Ruhui hurriedly arranged for someone to go back to the Ministry of War to fetch the hunting knife.

"The magic weapon Du Gong mentioned is this hunting knife?"

Li Jing looked at the ordinary hunting knife and was a little stunned. Although it was heavy to hold, it seemed to have nothing to do with the magic weapon.

Du Ruhui laughed, they thought the same way at the time, shook their heads and said, "General Li, don't underestimate a hunting knife."

Li Shimin said: "I remember that the pharmacist has a precious sword, which can be compared with a hunting knife."

Li Jing quickly shook his head and said, "I dare not bring weapons into the palace."

Li Shimin said indifferently: "It's okay, just take your weapon for a try, I approve."

After confirming again and again, Li Shimin really agreed with him to bring weapons in, so he left Ganlu Hall and brought a saber he had used for many years after a while.

Like Li Junxian's saber before, this saber has accompanied Li Jing in battle for a long time. Although he is best at using long spears, he still uses sabers in close combat. He has killed many enemies and has never been damaged.

"Pharmacist, use your knife and try this hunting knife, which one is stronger." Li Shimin said again.

"The minister is offended!"

Li Jing drew his saber out of its sheath, took the hunting knife again, and the two knives collided.

Clang!

Like cutting tofu, the hunting knife easily cut Li Jing's saber into two pieces, without even a trace on the blade.

Li Jing was stunned for a while, then threw the remaining half of the amputee knife on the ground, held up the hunting knife with both hands and looked at it for a while, marveling at how such a sharp weapon could exist.

Cutting iron like mud is nothing more than that!

"Your Majesty, where did this knife come from? What kind of iron is it made of?"

Li Jing couldn't put it down, said: "This weapon is too sharp and too hard!"

Pei Ju's eyes lit up when he saw it. It was definitely not easy to be able to enter a weapon with the eyes of a military god like Li Jing.

Although he hadn't personally tested how sharp the broken knife was just now, judging by its quality, it was still the weapon used by Li Jing, and it would definitely not be too bad.

However, in front of this mediocre hunting knife, it is vulnerable to a blow, and it will break at the touch of it.

"I'm afraid this is a sharp weapon made of meteoric iron from outside the sky? It's so rare!" Pei Ju said.

"Pei Gong, you are wrong, this is a sharp weapon made from ordinary iron ore."

A smile finally appeared on Du Ruhui's face: "Before I went to ask Mr. Pei for money, I used my salary to forge ten Mo Dao with this level of sharpness. Ministry of War."

"real!"

Li Jing's hands trembled.

"Duke, are you sure this is true?"

Pei Ju said in surprise: "Your Ministry of War can also build it?"

"Of course it is true, His Majesty can testify."

Du Ruhui nodded and said, "If you two still don't believe me, you can go to the Ministry of War to have a look."

"Pei Gong, I can really testify, that's why I asked Keming to go to you to discuss whether we can replace our weapons."

Li Shimin thought in his heart, can he finally convince you this time?

Also stunned?

"It's the old man who is confused!"

Pei Ju laughed: "Mr. Du came to ask my ministers for money to build new weapons. If you didn't have new sharp weapons, how could you make such a decision casually? Don't worry, Mr. Du, I will allocate money to your military department as soon as I go back, and I will never neglect it. This is a powerful weapon, with such a sharp weapon, who would dare to invade us from foreign enemies in the future? All of them will be chopped off with one blow."

Li Jing's eyes were very wild, and he said quickly: "Du Gong, this time it is also my fault, I made a mistake on Du Gong, please forgive me!"

Immediately afterwards, he faced Li Shimin and continued: "If this weapon can equip the entire army, I can guarantee that within three years, the head of the old thief Xieli will be brought back to Your Majesty."

With such a sharp weapon, they still need to be afraid of foreign enemies?

There is no need for this at all, just cut it to see who is unhappy.

What should be feared are those enemies.

"However, it is very difficult to popularize the whole army, and the national treasury is still tight!" Pei Ju said directly about their current embarrassing situation.

"Pei Gong, can you think of who gave me the method of making sharp weapons?"

Li Shimin wants to bring this topic back to food, which is the focus of today.

"I don't know." Pei Ju shook his head.

"It's the fortune teller!" Li Shimin said.

"It's him!"

Pei Ju was taken aback for a moment, a fortune teller on the street could actually come up with this kind of technology and give it to the court.
