Chapter 1024: Build a gun and play with it
Of course, after the Anshi Rebellion, it is normal for Yang Guozhong to be unable to hold his breath, one is that he is not a person who can calm down, a prodigal son who is floating in his heart, and the other is because when An Lushan rebelled at that time, he played the banner of Qingjun's side and killed the traitorous minister Yang Guozhong.
In this case, if the regular army of the Tang Dynasty cannot quickly defeat the rebellious Anshi rebels and turn the war into a protracted war of attrition, then, as the object of the rebel Qing Jun's side, Yang Guozhong is very dangerous, even if the emperor is unwilling to treat Yang Guozhong's crimes, many ministers below will keep writing to the emperor, so that the emperor will focus on the Tang Dynasty and kill Yang Guozhong, so that the Anshi rebels will become nameless, which will be conducive to the counterinsurgency of the Tang Empire.
This kind of thing is not without precedent, in the early days of the Han Dynasty before the Tang Dynasty, there was also the Seven Kingdoms Rebellion, at that time, the official of the Han Dynasty Chao Cuo put forward a proposal to cut the domain, but this was opposed by the seven clan kings headed by Liu Bi, the king of Wu, so they united to rebel, and the banner was that the Qing monarch killed Chao Cuo.
The rebels launched a rebellion, which caused a lot of pressure on the Han court, and in order to make the rebel division unknown, Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty had to reluctantly kill Chao Cuo.
Although the rebels did not stop rebelling after killing Chao Cuo, their reason for rebellion no longer existed, so their rebellion became a real rebellion.
But through the fact that Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty killed Chao Cuo, it can be seen that the royal ruthlessness is not for the sake of the royal society, they will not care about sacrificing the lives of their courtiers, even if it is only a little useful, it is not hesitant.
From the incident of Ma Weipo later, it can be seen what kind of ruthless person the emperor is, he even endured to kill his most beloved concubine, and before, his own son was also killed by him, not to mention Yang Guozhong.
Therefore, in history, Yang Guozhong was anxious to let the army quickly quell the rebellion, in order to prevent the rebellion from prolonging and his life could be lost at any time.
And the emperor is also very happy, he always thinks how awesome his central army is, it seems that as long as he makes a move, he can wipe out the rebels casually, in addition, the emperor also understands Yang Guozhong's worries, and knows that if the rebellion cannot be quickly extinguished, Yang Guozhong may not be able to keep it, and he pampers the concubine, so he naturally does not want to see such a situation happen.
Of course, the most important thing is that he believed too much in the strength of the Central Army of the Tang Dynasty, and for a long time in the later period of his reign, he never experienced major setbacks, so he developed a character of great joy and lack of patience.
Yang Guozhong is so happy and can't hold his breath, there are many, many things, for example, the two expeditions to Nanzhao are like this, it was originally a little unpleasant at the border, there is not much of a big deal at all, but Yang Guozhong, who couldn't hold his breath, sent troops to attack Nanzhao, which led to heavy losses of the Tang Dynasty soldiers and horses, and after a failure, he once again sent more soldiers and horses to attack the small Nanzhao, which caused greater losses.
At this moment, because of the position of the right prime minister who had already won the victory, he actually ran to the concubine without holding his breath, which can completely show how lacking his patience is.
"Cousin, go back early! Naturally, I will take this matter to heart, and I will send someone to inform you when there is news. ”
Yang Yuhuan opened her mouth and said, she hadn't figured out how to say this matter, so naturally she couldn't promise Yang Guozhong, and the most critical problem was that she couldn't guess the emperor's mind.
"Alright! All right! Everything depends on the concubine's sister. ”
Yang Guozhong bowed down in despair, and then turned away gently, looking weak.
The day after Li Linfu's death, the headline of Datang Daily, unsurprisingly, was the news of Li Linfu's death, and most of the next few pages were related to Li Linfu, some were eulogies written by individuals, some were eulogies written by the imperial court, and some various old things related to Li Linfu were also picked up and reported.
Of course, because Li Linfu is just dead, but he has not fallen, all the news related to Li Linfu is relatively positive news, and those negative news have not been reported, for example, Li Linfu's design to frame other ministers has not been reported, and no one dares to report it, unless the imperial court decrees to punish Li Linfu's crimes, the Tang Dynasty newspaper dares to report these contents, even if it is hearsay, it is also dare to report, the key lies in the attitude of the imperial court.
For many days after that, the main content of Datang News was related to Li Linfu, and Yang Guozhong could finally take a breath.
Li An didn't care too much about Li Linfu's death, it was all a matter of time or time, he had been sick for more than half a year, and it was time to go to Lord Yan to report.
Li An doesn't care too much about the situation in the court, no matter who dominates the government, Li An will not care, but Li An himself will never be the right minister, and he won't do it if he is killed, otherwise, he will have to reduce his life span by at least ten years, and it will be clear if he looks at Li Linfu's fate.
Although this Li Linfu has done a lot of bad things, his illness and death are absolutely inseparable from long-term fatigue, if it were not for long-term overwork, he might be able to live a few more years.
Those who are dead are dead, but those who are alive must continue to live, the Tang Dynasty will not stop operating because of anyone's departure, and the death of a Li Linfu is not a loss for the Tang Dynasty.
But after all, Li Linfu is the right minister, and after his death, Li An, as a colleague, is also going to give him a ride, which is inevitable.
Even the royal family sent a group of people represented by Li Palm, the king of Tan, to give Li Linfu a ride, accompanied by five or six princes such as King Yong, as well as five or six adult emperors and grandsons such as Li Yu, such a big pomp and circumstance is to set off Li Linfu's official position and highlight the emperor's favor to him.
After burning a stick of incense for Li Linfu, he took a few imperial brothers back and did not stay, while Li Yu, the king of Guangping, and several uncles and brothers stayed, their status was slightly lower, and there was nothing to do, and it was good to stay and chat with the court officials.
Li An's official position is relatively high and he has stayed with many high-ranking officials, Yang Guozhong and Wei Jiansu are a lot, but everyone will not stay for long, after all, they all have political affairs to deal with, and after only a moment, most of the high-ranking officials have left one after another, leaving only a few people such as Li An and Li Yu.
"How many days has Li Shilang been busy?"
Li Yu sat next to Li An and asked.
Li An drank a cup of tea and said, "It's okay!" Not very busy, how about you? ”
"The past few days have been surprisingly smooth, the underground parking garage project is progressing well, if it can continue to go so smoothly, it should be completed in two months after the year."
Li Yu said happily.
"Really? It is said that everything is difficult at the beginning, it seems that it is not bad at all, the problem at the beginning is solved, and the following is getting smoother and smoother, haha! Good thing, good thing. ”
Li An said happily.
Other people's families are holding funerals, but Li An and Li Yu are sitting here talking and laughing, which seems to be a little out of place, but the host family will not have any opinions, just for Li Yu's noble status, not only will they not be angry, but they will feel that this is giving their family face.
Although the funeral should be crying, but this is all a matter of filial piety and filial piety, people who come to the funeral do not need to cry, and even, occasionally meet acquaintances to say hello, it doesn't matter if you smile, no one will mind, as long as it's not too much.
"Li Shilang, when are you going to go out hunting! Let's play! ”
Li Yu opened his mouth and said the purpose.
"Hunting? I can go at any time, as long as King Quang Binh has time, I have time. ”
Li An said.
"That's good! Let's do it tomorrow! It's been a long time, and it's time to go out and yo. ”
Li Yu said happily.
Hunting is an interesting entertainment activity, but at the same time, it can also exercise a person's physique, since ancient times, nobles are very fond of hunting, Li Yu is certainly not surprised.
Li An nodded and said, "Okay!" Let's do it tomorrow! Just the two of us? ”
"Qiao'er and Jun'er are also going together, you might as well bring them all, you can take care of each other if there are many people, what does Li Shilang think?"
Li Yu said.
The so-called Qiao'er and Jun'er are the two sons of Li Heng's fourth brother Li Yan, who are not a few years younger than Li Yu, and they are also the masters who love hunting.
However, because Li Yan is an unfavored prince, he is not even favored with Li Qiao and Li Jun, and his status is far inferior to Li Yu, but their relationship with Li Yu is very good, and they often play together.
After leaving Li Linfu's mansion, Li An went directly to the R&D center, and Li An had already distributed the various parts of the gun to different craftsmen to be responsible for R&D and manufacturing, and it was estimated that it should be manufactured.
As long as all these parts are processed, Ang Lee only needs to bring all these parts back, and then assemble them himself, as long as the parts are complete, it should not be difficult to assemble, at least for Ang Lee, this is not difficult.
Because different gun parts are assigned to different craftsmen for research and development and manufacturing, Ang Lee needs to work hard and go to different places to inquire about progress.
"Li Shilang, this thing is very strange, what is it for!"
A craftsman, who had already made parts for a firearm, thought it was a little strange and asked.
Of course, Ang Li wouldn't tell him the truth, so he smiled and said, "It's all small parts of the machine, it's not worth mentioning, it's not worth mentioning!" Well, yes, the workmanship is really good, there should be no problem with this size and accuracy! ”
"Li Shilang can rest assured, the size and accuracy of this part are personally checked by me, and there will be absolutely no problems, otherwise, you can measure it yourself."
The old craftsman replied confidently.
"Okay, get a ruler and I'll check it myself."
Li An naturally wants to check, if the size does not meet the requirements, then it is really blind, all the parts of the firearm, there are requirements for accuracy, if the size and accuracy of the parts are wrong, then, there will be problems when assembling, and the assembly will not be realized.
Of course, it is not enough to have the correct size and accuracy, but also to pass the quality test, the so-called quality pass, refers to the hardness and toughness are strong enough, and the gun will not be blown up when the gun is blown, if it is blown up, it is a serious quality problem.
In that era of the Anti-Japanese War, the quality of the firearms produced by many small workshops was not guaranteed, and there was often a phenomenon of exploding the chamber when the gun was fired, and as long as such a situation occurred, the light would seriously affect the combat effectiveness of the army, and the heavy would cause the accidental death of soldiers and cause extremely serious losses to the army.
In the later society, many people like to get shotguns to hunt, but the quality of some shotguns is very bad, and there will also be an accident of exploding the chamber when it is used, and once the chamber is exploded, the light will cause the user's eyes to be blind, and the heavy will cause the death of personnel.
Therefore, the quality of firearms is the top priority, which is what Ang Lee values the most, there is nothing more important than human life, and the firearms made are what Ang Lee wants to play with, so it is naturally very safe.
Because when designing, Li An has fully considered safety, focusing on the reinforcement design in key parts, and there are strict requirements for the quenching of materials, so there will naturally be no safety problems in the manufactured firearms, and Li An has absolute confidence in this.
"Yes, very good, there is no problem with the size, the accuracy also meets the requirements, you have all worked hard, you have worked hard."
Ang Lee personally measured the parts of these firearms and praised the craftsmen for their exquisite skills.
Ang Lee then went to different parts to pick up different parts, and then gathered all the parts, put them in his office, and then began to assemble them.
Since the parts of the firearm are all designed by yourself, there is no difficulty in assembling them, and there are only a few parts of a firearm, which is easy to assemble.
In addition to the parts of the gun body, Li An also deliberately designed a number of silencers, in order to use it, it will not make too terrifying sounds, after all, there are so many people in Chang'an City, in case it is too loud when trying the gun at home, for example, it will attract the attention of many people, this secret weapon will not be hidden, in short, it will inevitably cause a lot of trouble.
