It was too easy for Li Chengqian to be the emperor, and all the things that could not be dealt with were handed over to the six ministries of the three provinces.

After leaving Chang'an City, the two went straight to the Mozong headquarters in the western suburbs.

The Mohist hand crossbow needs to be put into production as soon as possible, and it is also time for the intelligence agency to start.

After all, there was a task to push this time, and Li Chengqian had no choice but to handle it.

"His Royal Highness, you are here..."

When Mo Hongzhe learned that Li Chengqian was coming, he hurried to greet him in front of the sect's gate.

Li Chengqian walked like a tiger and entered the sect, "Hongzhe, do you still remember the "Mohist crossbow? Hummingbird" that I told you not long ago? "

"Of course I remember." Mo Hongzhe nodded, and said apologetically, "However, Your Highness, I'm sorry for my humble position and dullness. I have read many ancient books, but I haven't found any clues."

Li Chengqian said lightly: "There is no need to look for it anymore, I have already found it for you."

As he spoke, he casually took out the blueprint for making the Mohist hand crossbow.

Mo Hongzhe was taken aback when he took the blueprint, then his face showed shock, his hands trembled, "His... Your Highness, this... is this the complete production blueprint?"

His eyes widened in disbelief.

This is a bit ridiculous. Li Chengqian found out all the broken inheritance of the Mo family.

"Well, why is there a problem?" Li Chengqian said calmly, as if he had done a trivial matter.

"No problem, no problem..." Mo Hongzhe stared at the blueprint in his hand, wishing he could plunge into it, "Your Highness, give me a day, no... In half a day, I will definitely make the Mohist hand crossbow for you. "

Li Chengqian nodded, and continued to walk towards the sect, "Okay, you go, it happens that I have other things to do, so you don't have to worry about me."

After entering Mozong, Li Chengqian sat upright in the side hall.

Soon...

Wang Xuance walked in from the door, "I have seen His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Li Chengqian put down the small Mohist handle in his hand, and said softly: "Xuance don't need to be polite, just sit down."

Wang Xuance stepped forward and sat down, and asked: "Your Highness summoned a lowly official here, what is the matter?"

"I want to transfer you from the White Robe Army."

"Removed from the White Robe Army?" Wang Xuance frowned, and asked, "Your Highness, did the humble officer commit any mistakes? Why did you suddenly transfer the humble officer from the White Robe Army?"

Wang Xuance has been a soldier of the White Robe Army since the first day he joined the army. After so many years, he has already gotten used to life in the White Robe Army.

His affection for the White Robe Army is even more profound.

"Don't be impatient..." Li Chengqian said with a light smile: "Since you became the commander of the White Robe Army, not only have you not committed any faults, but you have made outstanding achievements repeatedly. The reason why this Palace wants to transfer you from the White Robe Army is because This palace wants to give you a more difficult task."

"I don't know if you have confidence."

Wang Xuance got up, his gaze was firm, he cupped his hands and said: "Your Highness, it's okay to say, I will do my best in a humble position!"

After hearing this, Wang Xuance felt relieved.

A soldier takes obedience to orders as his bounden duty, as long as Li Chengqian assigns him tasks, he will try his best to complete them.

Although he has deep feelings for the White Robe Army, Li Chengqian's words are the decree of heaven to him.

Li Chengqian looked up at him, "I want to establish an intelligence agency, and I want you to be the person in charge of this agency."

Chapter 570

Intelligence agency? "Wang Xuance frowned, wondering: "Isn't the scout battalion commanded by Ding Yue?" "

Li Chengqian picked up the teapot and poured a bowl of tea, and pushed it in front of him, "Ding Yue is in charge of the military intelligence agency, and I want to establish another intelligence agency involving all areas and matters in the Tang Dynasty and even outside the country."

Wang Xuance said in astonishment: "Your Highness, are you going to monitor the world?"

If this is the case, how huge will this network deployed in the Tang Dynasty be, and the manpower and material resources consumed in it will be immeasurable.

"That's right." Li Chengqian picked up the teacup and took a sip, "In the future, the land conquered by the Tang Dynasty will become wider and wider, and the population to be managed will increase."

"Any change in any place, the palace must control it immediately and take corresponding measures. Now is the period of rapid development of Datang, and it is the best period for our layout."

"Whether it's officials, civilians, Jianghu, or other nationalities, countries, etc., all kinds of information, I want it."

"You don't need to do anything, there is only one task, and that is to obtain information that is beneficial to Datang at all costs."

"When necessary, carry out beheading operations to kill hidden dangers in the cradle."

Wang Xuance nodded slightly, took a sip of tea, his brain was spinning rapidly.

He understood what Li Chengqian meant. This intelligence agency was an intelligence network affiliated with Li Chengqian, who would carry out arrests and assassinations when necessary.

The main responsibility of this agency is intelligence acquisition.

Datang moved out of Yushitai on the bright side, and Li Chengqian set up such a huge dark net in the dark. This light and darkness firmly protected Datang in it.

lean less...

Wang Xuance said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, the manpower and money needed for this is beyond measure..."

Just now, Wang Xuance made a rough estimate, and it was really difficult to calculate.

"It's okay." Li Chengqian said with a flick of his sleeves: "You don't have to worry about money, I will provide you with sufficient funds, but for people, I can only provide you with a few core backbones. As for other personnel, I still need you." Find it yourself and add it."

"But you don't have to worry. This intelligence agency cannot be built overnight, and it will take time to infiltrate, but I have confidence in you."

Wang Xuance replied: "No problem, rest assured, Your Highness, I will do my best to build the intelligence agency's shelf in the shortest possible time."

"Your Highness, I don't know what the name of this intelligence agency is..."

"Jin Yiwei." Li Chengqian blurted out, "You are the first commander of Jin Yiwei and the supreme commander of Jin Yiwei."

"But this palace cannot give you any official position."

Wang Xuance didn't care about it, and responded: "The humble job understands."

Jinyiwei is not an imperial government agency, but a private intelligence agency under Li Chengqian's command, so not only can Wang Xuance not be promoted, he even has to give up his current official position.

This is a shadow force hiding in the dark.

Li Chengqian nodded, and handed over the plan that had been drawn up to Wang Xuance.

"You go back to the White Robe Army garrison, handover with Su Dingfang, select a hundred elites, and then go to Qinghuo Trading Company to find Zheng Qian to receive the start-up funds."

"Next, let you play."

Wang Xuance received a letter, and said in response: "I accept orders from humble officials."

Afterglow of the setting sun, the sun sets.

Just when Li Chengqian was about to go back home, Mo Hongzhe rushed in from outside the hall, his face flushed, "Your Highness, I succeeded, the Mohist hand crossbow has been made."

"Already made?"

Li Chengqian said, put down the cup in his hand, and sat up from the futon.

"That's right, and it was very successful." Mo Hongzhe was very excited, "Your Highness, please go and take a look as soon as possible, this weapon is more powerful than I imagined."

moment……

Under the leadership of Mo Hongzhe, Li Chengqian came to Mozong's workshop.

He has invested a considerable amount of money in this workshop, and many of the gadgets that came out of it either benefited the people of the Tang Dynasty, or served in the army and played an important role.

"Your Highness, take a quick look, this is a hummingbird." Mo Hongzhe handed a palm-sized hand crossbow in front of Li Chengqian.

Li Chengqian took it in his hand and weighed it. The weight is very light and portable.

"Your Highness, there is a target there, you can try its power." Mo Hongzhe said excitedly, pointing at the target not far away.

Li Chengqian turned the hand crossbow, flicked his right hand lightly, aimed at the bull's-eye of about 30 meters, and pulled the trigger.

Whoosh!

A jet-black small crossbow bolt galloped away, hitting the bull's-eye like black lightning.

At the same time, Li Chengqian pulled the trigger one after another, and the four crossbow arrows shot towards the bull's-eye one after another.

boom!boom!boom……

In just a split second, five crossbow arrows hit the bull's-eye one after another.

"Your Highness, great technique!" Mo Hongzhe couldn't help cheering.

He felt that the hummingbird was alive in Li Chengqian's hands.

Lightweight, compact, fast, and lethal...

This hand crossbow has almost no shortcomings. After using it skillfully, it is very easy to seal the throat with an arrow within 30 meters.

If Jin Yiwei's assassination troops were equipped with such hand crossbows, their combat effectiveness would definitely rise to a higher level for beheading operations.

"Hummingbird can load five crossbow bolts at a time, and the crossbow body and crossbow bolts are all made of fine steel. In general, there are almost no shortcomings. It is the king of melee assassination."

Mo Hongzhe stared at the hand crossbow in Li Chengqian's hand, his eyes were full of heat.

It seems that the inheritance of the Mohist school has been continued by him again.

If the ancestors have knowledge, they will definitely be able to rest in peace.

Mo Hongzhe is confident that within two years, the Mo family will return to its peak, and even one step closer.

Li Chengqian looked at the hummingbird in his hand and nodded in satisfaction, "That's right, let's mass produce it right away, first make two thousand handle crossbows for backup."

"Two thousand?" Mo Hongzhe was taken aback, "Your Highness, although this hand crossbow is good, the cost is unexpectedly high."

"If this is averaged out, the amount of silver needed to make a hummingbird is comparable to that of a Shenwei firecracker."

Mo Hongzhe has confidence in all the things he makes, but at the same time, having confidence means that every item from Mo Zong will have a very high cost, which is unavoidable.

Li Chengqian pondered: "You don't have to worry about money, just go to Qinghuo Commercial Bank to get as much silver as you need."

"It's Your Highness." Mo Hongzhe responded hastily: "The humble worker will start production tomorrow, and strive to deliver these two thousand hand crossbows to His Highness in the shortest possible time."

Although Li Chengqian agreed easily, the reserve fund of Qinghuo Trading Company seems to have dropped.

If it is forcibly withdrawn, it will hurt the foundation of Qinghuo Trading Company.

"It seems that we still need to think of a way to make money..."

Li Chengqian was thinking on the way back to the palace.

The hand crossbow is not counted, and the establishment of Jinyiwei alone requires a huge amount of money, and it is continuous.

Chapter 571 Prosperity?Datang?rich?

Henan Road.

Xuzhou...

Li Shimin led Wei Zheng and the three of them on a starry night, and finally arrived at the boundary of Xuzhou.

"Second Master, let's find a place to rest and eat something, even if we can bear it, the horse can't bear it..."

Wei Zheng's face was pale, and he begged Li Shimin.

Among the four, Li Shimin and Cheng Yaojin needless to say, they are both generals who have fought for more than ten years, and Zhao Yi is also a figure with all-round talents in civil and military affairs.

So galloping all the way is the biggest test for Wei Zheng.

"Okay, then let's find a place to rest for a while..." Li Shimin mused.

When he arrived at the boundary of Xuzhou, his tense heart eased a little.

After walking about five miles further, the four of them stopped in front of a tavern.

Entering the store, they asked for two plates of steamed buns, a few plates of side dishes and two jugs of wine, and the four of them began to devour them hungrily.

All the way in a hurry, the four of them ate only dry food, and their stomachs had long been short of oil and water.

Especially Cheng Yaojin, who lost a lot of weight.

"Boss, two more plates of steamed buns, two jugs of wine, two plates of mutton..."

Before Cheng Yaojin swallowed the meat in his mouth, he raised his hand and said vaguely.

"I said, old Cheng, are you a starving ghost reincarnated?" Wei Zheng looked at Cheng Yaojin with disgust, "Even if you don't have to pay, you can't eat like this, right? The second master's money is not a big wind." Scraped."

Cheng Yaojin picked up the wine bowl, drank it all in one gulp, and put all the meat in his mouth down.
