God-level prince of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 810 Five Thousand Cannons

Since Li Shimin didn't take the matter of attacking the Turks to heart, Li Chengqian couldn't do it. He still had one task to complete, which was the manufacture of [-] cannons, and sometimes he had to do it himself.

Before attacking Turks, the output of this gun must keep up.Otherwise, once a fight breaks out, it may take more time and sacrifice a lot of soldiers for Datang.

This is a pain that Datang cannot bear.

If there are enough weapons, why not kill them with lightning speed?
So when it comes to weapons, there must be corresponding people to produce them.

So he found Li Kai again and asked him about guns.

In the East Palace, Li Kai said respectfully: "His Royal Highness, [-] cannons have been produced, and half of them have not been produced! As for muskets, [-] pieces have been produced, and I believe it will reach [-] in a short time. .”

As for guns, Li Chengqian is not in a hurry. What he is worried about is whether the production capacity of cannons can keep up.

Li Chengqian asked: "I am not in a hurry about the firearms, but as for the cannons, can you speed up?"

It would be best if he could hurry up. He didn't pay special attention to it before, but now it's different. The situation around him is getting more and more tense.

The enemy will not wait for you to build the railway before you beat them too hard to fight back.

They want to attack Datang as soon as possible while the Datang Railway has not yet been extended.Li Chengqian also knows the powerful relationship among them, so he must preemptively strike talents.Be fully prepared and ready to go at any time.

"His Royal Highness, this is also the fastest. Iron is in short supply recently, otherwise another [-] cannons will be produced by the end of the month."

Li Kai said so.

Only then did Li Chengqian remember that all this was because he built trains and railways. Now the demand for iron in the entire Tang Dynasty can equal the demand for iron since the establishment of the Tang Dynasty.

After all, it is necessary to use it for everything. Naturally, it is indispensable.

There is a serious shortage of iron ore supply.Especially in ancient times, transportation accounted for the largest proportion. If you have the ability to mine, you have to be able to transport it. Iron ore is not found just by digging, and some need to go to distant places to get it.

Li Chengqian said he understood.

"Why didn't you say so earlier?"

"Before, His Royal Highness did not ask the minister to speed up production! At present, of course, the railway is the first priority, so we didn't talk about it."

That's what it said, Li Chengqian gave him a long period of time, and the time has not yet arrived, so what Li Kai said is correct.

"Why don't you, Your Highness the Crown Prince, please go and look for Liu Bu?"

Li Kai said, aren't these six films under his control?

Hitting them is worse than finding yourself!

Li Chengqian said: "No need! You don't have to worry about the iron case. This king will let someone handle it."

"Is there a way to do this?"

Li Kai was puzzled, as far as he was concerned, there was no way to do it, but Li Chengqian had a way.

Surprised him a little.

"of course!"

How did Li Kai know what method Li Chengqian was going to use.

After finishing, Li Chengqian said again: "Come here, let Li Ke enter the East Palace! This king has something to ask him!"

"Yes!"

What did Li Chengqian ask Li Ke to do?Is it brothers reminiscing about the past?
If this is the case, it may be a bit inappropriate for Li Kai to stay here.

"Then His Royal Highness, can I...can you leave!"

Li Kai asked, after all, he still had a lot of things to do.

But Li Chengqian said:
"No! You stay here and leave later! My king still has arrangements!"

Li Kai didn't dare to disobey, so he had to agree.

After a while, Li Ke entered the East Palace and saluted Li Chengqian.

"Why is Big Brother looking for me?"

Li Chengqian asked directly:

"As for the steamship, have you ever built it?"

Steamship?What it is?That is something more precise than a cannon.

Li Kai on the side was completely puzzled, but he was too embarrassed to ask.I had to listen on the sidelines.

Li Ke replied: "Don't worry, brother, I just wanted to come over and talk to you about this matter."

It turned out that Li Ke also came to find Li Chengqian because of this matter, and I'm afraid it was a mess.

"Oh? What progress has it reached?"

Li Chengqian asked.

Li Ke said:

"The construction of the steamship has been completed, but it is now in the final cleaning stage. After it is finished, it can be inspected and accepted to transport iron ore."

Final cleaning phase?That is also fast.

"How long will that take?"

"Very soon! It will probably only take a day or so!"

One day, soon.Can't imagine how soon it will be done.

Hearing this, Li Chengqian had another idea. This ship is not only used as a transport ship, maybe it can also be used for other things.Such as transforming into a warship.

Therefore, he said to Li Kai: "Li Kai, I want you to pull out a hundred cannons and transport them directly to the ship! Divide them into four weeks!"

"His Royal Highness... is to build a warship..."

Li Chengqian nodded.

"That's right, a warship equipped with cannons must be very powerful. With it, the distance that Datang can reach will be infinitely extended!"

There are Tang Jun not only on land, but also at sea!

"Big brother wise!"

Li Ke said straight.

"Hahaha! Go ahead and do it, I will go talk to His Majesty about it now!"

"Yes!"

The two left the East Palace, and Li Chengqian took Wang Xuance to Taiji Palace afterward.

This time, he had to put on a good show in front of Li Shimin and gain another wave of points.

Now he can be said to be familiar with the harvest of these points, and he can do it at his fingertips.

He had a hunch that the points needed in the future might only be more, not less.

At the same time, he also tried to change Li Shimin's mind. Since he has weapons, why not go out?

The stronger he is, the more afraid he is.

If it doesn't work, he will take the initiative to ask him to go out to fight, flatten the enemy's land, liberate them, and give them a good life. After all, you don't take the initiative, but many people think about the richness of the Tang Dynasty, and they may fight at any time. invasion.

Li Chengqian quickly arrived at the Taiji Palace, but there was no one in the Taiji Palace at this time.

He asked about the little yellow door beside him.

"Where is His Majesty going?"

"His Royal Highness, I don't know! His Majesty went out early in the morning, saying that he was going out to relax!"

Relax?

Where can Li Shimin go to relax?

He thought to himself, would he run to the Qinwang Pavilion?
So, he took a step and headed towards Qinwang Pavilion.

As soon as he arrived at Qinwang Pavilion, he saw many people standing at the bottom, so he knew that Li Shimin must be at the top.

"Is His Majesty up there?"

he asked

"Yes, Your Highness the Crown Prince!"

"Okay, send me up!"

After that, Xiao Huangmen used the elevator to send Li Chengqian to the top floor of Qinwang Pavilion.
