Chapter seven hundred and ninety-four changes in luck
Seeing that the head of the Production Department agreed to this matter, Lin Ze showed a satisfied smile on his face and said to the master of the Mo family: "I also want to see the power of three cannons fired in unison."
The Mohist master bowed his hands and saluted: "Please wait a moment, my lord. We are testing the artillery today. We only brought three shells with us, and the rest are still sealed in the warehouse. I will have someone send them over right now."
Lin Ze waved his hand, indicating that he could help himself.
After a while, the artillery shells were in place. The Mohist master personally adjusted the angle of the artillery and ordered the three apprentices to light it at the same time.
The three shells landed at the same place less than three meters apart at almost the same time.
A "boom" sound, louder than before, resounded in the sky.
At the same time, there was a bang in Lin Ze's mind, and a picture scroll slowly unfolded. It was exactly the picture of five light groups juxtaposed that Lin Ze had seen before.
Lin Ze suddenly saw the large light group in the middle, tumbling for a while, and suddenly broke into pieces. One part seemed to evaporate and disappeared, while the other part naturally blended into the east light group.
This scene only played in Lin Ze's mind for three breaths, and then disappeared again.
Based on Lin Ze's understanding of the symbol of the light group, he quickly came to a conclusion: "Something happened in the Qin State, and Liu Ji took advantage of it."
So Lin Ze opened his mouth slightly, and a sentence traveled dozens of miles and rang in the ears of Wu Fan in the Tingwei Mansion in Loulan City: "Gu Gang made a fortune, the Qin State has changed, and Liu Jide will benefit. Go and find out."
, what happened? Find out clearly, go to the main hall and wait for me."
Wu Fan, who was sorting out the information, was startled at first. When he realized it was Lin Ze's voice, he immediately saluted in the direction of the source of the voice and said, "I'll do it now."
Withdrawing his mind from Loulan City, Lin Ze said to the head of the Department of Creation: "That's it for today. I have other important matters to deal with, so I won't disturb you."
The head of the Department of Works quickly bowed and replied: "The king's words are wrong. The head of the Department of Works cannot believe that the king can come every day."
"Since the ruler of the country has important matters, I will send them to you."
Lin Ze chuckled lightly and said: "There is no need to send you off. By the way, the artillery and the iron fish scale armor are both very good. Taken together, it will be considered a great achievement of Zuo Zuosi."
"In addition, the master who developed the iron fish scale armor will have his official salary increased by half a step, and the Mohist master who developed the artillery will have his official salary raised by one step. Do you have any objections?"
The officials of the Department of Art, headed by the head of the Department of Art, looked happy and said in unison: "I have no objections."
Lin Ze smiled and said: "As long as you have no objections, just take the first step and the escort will return to the city on their own."
After saying this, Lin Ze took off in the wind and disappeared.
All the officials from the Zaozuo Department paid their respects and said, "Congratulations to the Lord."
…
When Lin Ze returned to Loulan Palace, there was no news about Wu Fan.
Lin Ze was not that anxious. He just looked at the "World Map" hanging on the wall and fell into deep thought.
A quarter of an hour later, Wu Fan hurried over, bowed to Lin Ze who was facing the map, and said, "My lord, I have found out some information, which may be related to what you said."
"Say," Lin Ze turned around and looked at Wu Fan.
Wu Fan cupped his hands and said: "There is news from Guanzhong that a month ago, Emperor Qin led an army of 200,000 to conquer Liu Ji with the unknown young general Sima Jie and Baili Ce as commanders."
"The commander of the Liaodong Jinyi Guards sent a secret report. Half a month ago, something happened to the Great Qin Zheng Liao Mansion army entrenched in Liaodong. It changed its behavior of bullying men and women in Liaodong and began to rectify military discipline."
"Ten days ago, the army of the Liao Dynasty packed up their things, left Liaodong, and headed south. It seems that they went to the Central Plains."
"The commander of the Nanhe Jinyi Guards received news that ten days ago, the Qin Army and Liu Jijun encountered each other in Chen County, and the two sides fought. Liu Jijun relied on the geographical advantage to hold on to Chen County and refused to give in."
"I venture to speculate that the big change mentioned by my lord is most likely due to a battle between the two sides to determine the winner."
"My lord just said that there was a change in the Qin State and Liu Ji benefited. I think Liu Ji should have won."
"Logically speaking, there are 300,000 elite Qin troops in the Liao Prefecture, and 200,000 Qin troops starting from Chang'an. The two armies total 500,000. With Liu Ji's strength alone, even if there is Confucian help, if there is no top strong man to take action
, it is absolutely irresistible.”
"Besides, if Emperor Qin wants to destroy Liu Ji, he will definitely consider that there will be strong men on the other side to take action, and there will be no way to deal with it."
"I boldly speculate that the Qin Dynasty conquered the 300,000 elite troops of the Liao Dynasty, but rebelled and surrendered Liu Ji, so that the conquest army sent by the Qin Emperor was completely defeated."
"Just in line with my lord's prediction, the Qin State changed and lost half a million troops. Liu Ji benefited. Not only did he win the battle, but he also gained hundreds of thousands of elite troops."
Lin Ze's eyes were calm and he said calmly: "All this is just your guess. Since you have guessed to this extent, why not arrange manpower as soon as possible to get the accurate information back?"
Wu Fan bowed and replied: "I understand, I will do it now."
After speaking, he slowly exited the hall, turned around and left.
After Wu Fan left, Lin Ze couldn't help but sigh a little. The Western Region was still too remote after all. Even if he established an extremely complete intelligence system, he still couldn't deliver information in a timely manner.
Is it possible that the entire mobile phone needs to be taken out?
Soon, Lin Ze rejected this idea in his mind.
It's so unrealistic.
Although Lin Ze said that Wu Fan was just guessing, he knew in his heart that most of what Wu Fan guessed was true.
And it's quite interesting.
Before Han Xin led his army to the west, the Qin Emperor, the Buddhists and the Confucians did not make any move.
Shortly after Han Xin left with the 250,000 Western Qin army, first the Qin Emperor took the initiative to send out a counter-rebellion army, and then Confucianism sent people to recruit and surrender the Liao Mansion army.
That's right, Lin Ze dared to be sure that the Confucian army sent to conquer Liao Mansion was recruited by Confucians, because the current Liu Ji was not qualified enough to allow the 300,000 Qin army to surrender willingly.
There is no need to elaborate on the relationship. Western Qin's strength was reduced by more than half at once. Sure enough, some people couldn't hold it back anymore.
Lin Ze felt that the decision to send Han Xin to the west to conquer the Byzantine Empire was extremely wise.
A pool of stagnant water is not a good thing for Lin Ze.
Lin Ze had concerns about taking the initiative to cause trouble.
At present, it seems that regardless of the strong ones in the heaven and human realm, in terms of military strength, among the Qin, Nanyue, Liu Ji, and Western Qin, the Western Qin should be the strongest.
If you include those who are powerful in the realm of gods and humans, according to Zhuang Zhou, the power of the Taoist palace is the best in the world, even the Buddha and Confucian sages would recognize him.
If Lin Ze takes the initiative to cause trouble, it will easily arouse the concerns of the other three parties and be jointly targeted, so he appears to be very honest.
Now that the situation has begun to become chaotic, Lin Ze can show off his talents and use all his methods to plan for interests.
Of course, no matter how the situation changes, only those with strength have the right to speak, so as the first step, Lin Ze plans to recall the 100,000 troops that Yu Ziqi and Zhang Han took away.
Looking at the map again, Lin Ze summoned a civil servant from the Taiwei Mansion and said: "It is extremely urgent. I order Zhang Han and Yuzi to finish handling the affairs of the Beidi "Pasture" and Tianshan "Pasture" within three days, and lead the army.
The army has returned and is on standby."
"If you can't finish it within three days, come back with the loot first, and then go back to deal with those tribes when you have time."
The officials of the Taiwei Mansion quickly wrote two documents according to Lin Ze's words, handed them to Lin Ze for a look, and when Lin Ze nodded, they immediately stamped them and sent two teams of the fastest messengers, one to the west and one to the north, to deliver the letters.
