"The situation now is different from before. Juyang City has become my territory. According to the laws of the kingdom, the base there belongs to me. I can do anything there, and I will be exposed as long as I am exposed." Ding Kui didn't take it seriously, "The regular army is gone.
Whether you stay or not depends on my wishes. No one can shake my control over the base. If you want to do something, just go ahead and do it."
"The development and production of crossbows are all in the base. With so many people moving there, it will be difficult to ensure that the secrets of the crossbow are not leaked. It will be safer to wait for another year or two for us to find a suitable place to move." Old Qian said.
The person in charge of making crossbows.
Ding Kui knew that Lao Qiantou had an occupational disease and was worried about spies sneaking into the new city. However, it was not unreasonable, so he said: "I originally wanted to centralize the management to make it easier, but everything has its pros and cons, and there is still a gap in a hundred meters, so let's do this
, we divided the manufacturing of the crossbow into three modules, the bow, the bracket and the mechanism, and finally arranged it to be assembled in a secret place."
"This method is wonderful. As long as the final assembly place is well controlled, the risk of leaks can be greatly reduced. We can conduct the final assembly in a heavily guarded military camp."
Modular production is a product of industrialization. Shenyuan Continent has not yet evolved to this stage. It is not surprising that Ding Kui can come up with it. In the eyes of old moneymakers, it is a miracle.
"Except for the crossbows used for training, all the other crossbows are stored in the warehouse. The New City must reserve at least three years' worth of them."
"So many!" The old money man looked surprised.
"Our country is at war with Cao State. It is difficult to predict the attitudes of other countries. If an incident occurs, Juyang City will be the first to bear the brunt. I have made great efforts to form a private army to protect myself. As long as Xincheng can hold on, Juyang City will be destroyed.
It can be rebuilt quickly even if it is destroyed, it is worth spending more money on military strength!" Ding Kui's sense of crisis became stronger and stronger.
"Well, my old master is to run the family with the military. You can be considered to be in the same line. The slight difference is that the Eighth Army was a big family at that time, and now Juyang City is a big family. Your decision is firm.
Support." Old Qiantou completely regarded Ding Kui as his new master.
In the capital city, Shaodianye returned home with Ding Kui's mission, and saw his father seeing off guests outside the gate. After the guests left, he saw his father noticed him, so he stepped forward and saluted, "My son, please give your regards to your father."
"Well? You're back, let's go into the house." Shao Dianyin nodded slightly.
"Then why is Lian Hu here? Shouldn't you receive him at home?" Shaodianye couldn't hold back the questions in his mind.
"Let's talk after we go back to the house." After saying this, Shao Dianyin closed his mouth tightly.
Shaodianye was confused but did not dare to ask more questions and followed his father silently.
After walking into the living room and sitting down, Shao Dianyin spoke first and asked, "Why did you come back? Did you piss off Ding Kui and was driven back?"
"No, no, no, you misunderstood!" Shao Dianye waved his hand quickly, "I came back to the capital this time under the military order of the Commander-in-Chief to ask for the pay for the outpost."
"Oh," a look of surprise appeared on Shao Dianyin's face, "Ding Kui is indeed a nostalgic person. I leave such an important matter to you. Later, I will help you go to the ministry to say hello. It concerns the Prince Consort and the others.
Dare to neglect."
"Then Lian Hu..." Shaodianye stopped talking.
"Princess Nangong gave birth to a son. Your Majesty loved it very much, and everyone in the Nangong family benefited a lot. Lian Hu had a good relationship with the princess. He actually joined the city defense army and became a captain, and also served as the inspection department.
Chang, he has become the number one figure in the capital recently.
Lian Hu was a smart man and knew who in the capital should not be offended. This time he came here under the guise of discussing official matters with the Inspection Office and the Internal Security Department. In fact, he wanted to make good friends with his father and make friends with the guards to avoid having to deal with him in the future.
There is a conflict in the Internal Security Department." Shao Dianyin said slowly.
"You teach your children from an early age that the internal guards and the harem must not have personal relationships. This..." Shaodianye's incomprehension comes from his father's education since he was a child.
"Well, this can barely be said to be a business transaction. It's not that the Nangong family doesn't know the rules of the harem, but when it comes to interests, they always try to wander into gray areas. They are not the only ones in the harem. Although my father is the king,
The people around me are definitely not as good as the princes, kings and grandsons, and those concubines and concubines who have children cannot be offended." The head guard, who was always strong in front of others, also showed a helpless expression.
"The child's work under the consort is closely related to the Tantai family. Isn't that enough to express your attitude? Lian Hu and the consort are at odds. Is this sowing discord?" Shao Dianye inquired about his immediate superior in detail.
, naturally knowing that Ding Kui taught Lian Hu a lesson.
"The Tantai family has become a lot more honest recently, and they don't have the energy to care about too many things. The Nangong family will not point the finger at the father. You can favor the consort in doing things, and the father can favor you but not others. Just remember this principle.
.Okay, let's go see your mother. After finishing your work, hurry back to the outpost. It's not advisable to stay in the capital for a long time." Shao Dianyin waved his son and rushed him to the backyard.
In the middle of the night, Nian Si handed a piece of information to Shaodian Mi, "This is a report from the Director of Internal Security. It was just sent over."
Shaodianmi's eyes were red and his expression was haggard. One look at him showed that he had not rested well.
"Even the Internal Security Department is involved? What happened recently? The families in the harem are very active. The king is now in good health and in his prime. Are they too impatient?"
"Sir, based on the news, it is mainly people from the Tang family and Nangong family who are involved. Their masters have just given birth to princes. It is reasonable to act like this. They have not clearly violated the laws of the kingdom and the regulations of the clan.
As a rule, our people can only monitor." This was the first time Nian Si encountered a similar situation.
"Is it reasonable to place such a wanton confidant?" Shaodianmi's voice was a little hoarse.
"Is it rare for other clans to do this? My lord and subordinates can serve kings for generations, but you can only serve one king. Some matters should be left to the king to decide." Nian Si kindly reminded his immediate superior.
"That's all, you sort out the relevant information tonight, and I'll go meet you tomorrow." Shaodianmi leaned back and closed his tired eyes.
At the junction of Zhuwang Prefecture and Haishan Prefecture, a group of people passed quickly at dawn. Zhe Kui led a hundred personal guards and rushed to the headquarters of the 19th Army.
At noon, this group of people came to rest by a small river, and a letter eagle flew from a distance.
The big man who looked like the captain of the personal guard reported to Zhe Kui: "Sir, the Eighteenth Army Corps has launched as planned."
"Okay, I read Cheng Jie correctly! How long does it take to get to the headquarters of the 19th Army Corps?" Zhe Kui took a sip of the freshly drawn river water.
"Based on the current speed, we can arrive on time in three days."
"Send the order, replenish the water and set off!"
