My Confucian Father

Chapter 76 Mojia Smelter, Dayan Arsenal

After the National Day Banquet, the conflict between Liguo and Yanguo at the border was disclosed by the Yanguo court, and now everyone in Yanguo knows about it.

The Liguo scout team trespassed on the border of the Yan Kingdom and killed hundreds of soldiers from the patrol team.

Before, I was only worried about affecting the National Day, so I didn't expose the matter for the time being, but now that the National Day has passed, there is no need to hide it and not want to announce it.

"The courage to leave the country is too great. How dare they be so rampant when they cross the border to kill people!"

As soon as this matter was mentioned, Tao An felt extremely angry.

As a Yan country person, no one can remain calm after hearing such things.

Crossing the border and killing people in the country is no different from jumping up and slapping people in the face. It is much more serious than provocation. If it goes too far, it is no problem to go to war without declaring it.

"How did the court handle it?"

Su Mu also heard a little about this incident, but he didn't feel much about it, after all, he traveled through time.

He was more curious about how the Yan Kingdom court handled this matter. Could it be that they wanted to go to war directly with Li Guo?
Zhuge Bin habitually opened the folding fan to fan the wind, and shook his head when he heard the words: "This conflict happened before the National Day, I guess, it should be Li Guo who is probing, let's see what my attitude will be like in Dayan .”

"Originally, the Confucian sage has not returned for many years. For the sake of the overall situation, the imperial court should swallow his anger; but a few days ago, the Confucian sage showed up publicly. If this happens, it is not clear how this matter will develop."

After all, Zhuge Bin is a child of a family of officials and eunuchs, and Zhuge Bin knows the way of it quite well.

Tao An also nodded and said: "That's right, I heard that the imperial court has gathered heavy troops on the border, and it seems that they are really ready to start a fight. They also publicly condemned Li Guo and asked Li Guo to hand over the soldiers who crossed the border and killed people."

"However, I think it's good to fight. I have not been in Dayan for more than ten years now, and my national strength is not much worse than his Liguo. I should teach those guys a lesson."

Tao An was quite unhappy with Li Guo, after all Li Guo and Yan Guo had a long-standing grudge, and the two sides had fought many years ago.

At that time, it was because of the presence of Confucian saints that they defeated the two saints with their own strength and eased the crisis of Dayan.

But even though it was said that the battle was over at that time, the people of Yan State held their breath, and they were always unhappy with Li State and Liang State, and they did not forget it even after decades.

"It's impossible to start a war. Liguo Bingsheng is here. Although my father has shown up, he is not in Dayan after all."

"Without the saint's cutting-edge combat power, the imperial court would never go to war with Li Guo. Now the posture is more for the common people in the country to see."

Su Mu said after taking a sip of the wine.

The existence of saints is like nuclear weapons. You can use them, but you can't, otherwise you will have no confidence.

The reason why the five countries in the Central Plains can maintain a superficially peaceful situation is because all countries have saints, and those countries without saints have long been destroyed.

And look at the present, the Confucian sage has only left the Yan Kingdom for more than ten years, and he is not dead yet, and he is already about to move away from the country.

If there were no saints in Yan Kingdom, Li Kingdom would have called at his door many years ago.

"Brother Mu has a good opinion, what he said is absolutely correct."

Zhuge Bin echoed, quite agreeing with Su Mu's analysis, which was exactly what he thought.

Su Mu looked at him when he heard the words, and said, "But in this case, the pressure may have to come to your father."

"Huh? What does it have to do with my father?"

Zhuge Bin was stunned, not quite understanding Su Mu's words, but he quickly came to his senses, and asked with some uncertainty: "Brother Mu, you mean... Lingshi weapons?"

"Yes."

Su Mu nodded, and patiently explained to Zhuge Bin: "The emergence of the Lingshi weapon is subversive. You underestimated its role and how much it can change the battlefield pattern."

"Seize this opportunity to research more powerful, stronger, and more types of spirit stone weapons. It will be difficult for you Momen to take off if you want to."

Spirit stone weapons have not attracted much attention yet.

At least many people haven't realized its true horror, but Su Mu knows that Emperor Yan must be clear.

It is impossible for such a far-sighted emperor not to see the strategic significance of Lingshi weapons.

Therefore, in the future, Yan Kingdom's development of Lingshi weapons will definitely become the mainstream, and the mainstream way of warfare will also be changed.

Zhuge Bin was very excited after hearing this, but soon his face collapsed again, he pulled Su Mu and said, "Brother Mu, come to our Momen to help, we can't do without you."

"My father said before that if you can come to Momen, he will give you the position of the giant. I have to say it himself, and I am not lying."

"No, I want to be you."

Su Mu once again flatly rejected Zhuge Bin.

Let him go to Momen to be a giant, so where will he have time to practice?In the previous life, he was a science and engineering dog, but in this life he is not.

What's more, he is a half-baked guy who doesn't know forging techniques or formation techniques. Some of the mechanics he learned can barely be combined with mechanism techniques, and the other is theoretical knowledge.

A giant from the Mo sect who doesn't even know how to forge is really laughing out loud.

Zhuge Bin had no choice but to give up when he heard the words, but he was still unwilling and said, "Anyway, it's fine now, Brother Mu, why don't you follow me to the smelter to have a look."

"Even if you don't come to my Momen, it's good to have some opinions, and it's also good to recruit people for our factory."

He wanted to take Su Mu to the smelter of the Ministry of Industry, what if he changed his mind?
Of course, he didn't just do it for this. When Lingqi Technology Co., Ltd. was established, the manpower at the beginning must be drawn from the Ministry of Industry, and he couldn't just look for it.

The folk craftsmen can't catch up with the level of the craftsmen of the Ministry of Industry, so Lasu Mu went to select people.

"can."

Su Mu didn't reject the proposal, because he was also a little curious, what kind of weapons are the ink sects in this world researching?
Leaving as soon as they said it, the three left Shangbi Pavilion, and then went directly to the smelter of the Ministry of Industry.

……

The Ministry of Industry's smelter is located on the northern outskirts of Shengjing.

Because the smelter builds weapons and produces all kinds of things all day long, it would be too disturbing to the people in the inner city.

The suburbs are sparsely populated and few people live there, which is just right for the smelter to be located.

Tao An is also planning to buy a site in the suburbs as the site of Lingqi Technology Company to produce bicycles.

A group of people rode their horses to the smelter, and Su Mu rode with Zhao Ming as usual.

Although after mastering the Kunpeng method, he can already fly in the air, but Shengjing is forbidden to fly.

So now, wherever you go, you have to take a carriage, or let Zhao Ming ride him on horseback.

The three arrived at the smelter soon.

The smelter is not a dilapidated and messy place as Su Mu imagined, but a mansion that looks quite luxurious on the outside.

There are two stone lions at the gate, and above the vermilion gate hangs a gilded plaque with three big characters of "Smelter".

"Why is there no one guarding your smelter? This defense is too loose."

Tao An glanced around and said that he didn't see any guards around the smelter, and he was undefended.

Generally speaking, important places like this will be heavily guarded, and all the weapons and secrets are here.

But after hearing this, Zhuge Bin looked at Tao An like a fool, and said contemptuously, "Our Mo sect produces weapons for Dayan, so we need soldiers to guard them? Who do we look down on?"

"This is the biggest weapon arsenal in the whole of Dayan! There are traps everywhere, even if the powerhouses of the third rank come in, they are guaranteed to come in and never come out!"

Zhuge Bin vowed, his tone full of pride.

Although the Mo Sect does not have its own cultivation system and relies on external things, it should not be underestimated.

At least it is not a problem to deal with ordinary third-rank monks, and the smelter is full of dangers.

"Okay, let's go in and have a look."

Su Mu said, and then walked into the smelter with Zhuge Bin and others.
