For seven days, a total of three exams of the imperial examination is over, for Suning, this is a good experience, for Li Chengqian, this is a very good mental journey, from all aspects, for the two of them, this imperial examination is a good run-in, run-in is not an easy thing, once the run-in is successful, the tacit understanding between the partners will be quite gratifying, this is the first thing that Suning and Li Chengqian partnered.

This kind of thing is certainly not easy to say, and it is not difficult to say that it is difficult, mainly because of the cooperation and the experience of hosting such a large-scale event for the first time, so there are still many difficulties, but they have dealt with them one by one, in seven days, Suning and Li Chengqian have not slept for twenty-four hours together, where is the time to sleep? This is the dream of many candidates for many years, no one can slack off, no one dares to slack off.

It's hard to return, but no matter how difficult it is, you have to do it, no matter whether it's difficult or not, you have to do it, you still have the possibility of success if you do it, if you don't do it, then there is no possibility of success at all, isn't Li Tai like this? It took him five years to go from not being able to go to expert level at all.

Therefore, there is nothing difficult in the world, if you really want to do it, or are forced to a certain part, then it is really a battle against the water, there is no other way, Li Tai successfully passed this test, so he became a real firearms expert, and because of his special identity, he was entrusted with the power to manage firearms and firearms research and development by Li Erma, and became a very important person.

Suning was not by his side when Li Tai was studying artillery and solid bullets, but when the flowering bullet was in the most important stage, Suning accompanied him throughout the process, and the solid bullet and the flowering bullet were not of the same level, Li Tai could control the solid bullet, but what kind of flowering bullet was it. Suning himself is not easy to confirm, Li Tai is a prince after all, or a prince who is especially treasured by Li Erma, if something goes wrong, Suning does not dare to guarantee whether Li Ermaxi will steam or cook himself......

Well, Suning is more afraid of heat......

So when the flowering bomb entered the most difficult and important research process. Suning decisively joined, for the first use of firearms in the Tang Dynasty, and also from the beginning of the study of firearms Su Houye's joining, Li Tai's research team is welcome, although Suning has no technology, but there is still knowledge.

The R&D process was very hard and very difficult, from the proportion of gunpowder to the improvement to the selection of shells for the shells, it was a difficult thing to do. In terms of the current ability and level, it is obviously very difficult, but since the artillery has appeared, we must not let the flowering shell appear too late, otherwise the power of the artillery will be greatly limited, we need the flowering shell, we need the growth of the artillery.

With a loud bang, this qiē announced the emergence of a result. An era was born, and artillery that could fire flowering shells was born. The sight of a herd of pigs being bombarded with flesh and blood made the eyes of all the firearms experts and workers widen, followed by excited cheers and tears.

Li Tai was the most happy, he immediately announced that he would reward all those who had struggled with him for countless days and nights, gold, people, pearls, agate, land, and other practical rewards, and he would use practical actions to tell all scientific researchers to follow this king. I can't thank you! Do things with this king, and as long as you do what you want, you will have a great reward and a great official position. Money, land, and women will not lack anything!

He and Suning hugged each other tightly, they were excited and proud of what they had achieved, at the same time, this young R&D team with an average age of less than twenty-three years old was also famous in Datang, Li Tai was officially awarded the relevant position by Li Erma, in charge of Datang's first qiē firearms research and development and firearms use work, keep the most important and confidential firearms information, not allowed to let others know, the relevant personnel have also signed a confidentiality letter, once the secret is leaked, the consequences are unimaginable.

But it's a pity that the first actual combat use after the solid bullet was studied was not used against the Arabs, but against Li Yuanchang's rebels, the most powerful weapon was not used on the battlefield to deal with outsiders at first, but was used in the civil war against his own people, although Suning hated the internal thieves, but also hated the fratricidal civil war, the dead were all Han people, all of them were their own people, and it was not good for their own people.

However, Li Tai didn't care about this, he automatically blocked all the relevant news, he locked himself in the palace and didn't go out, and actually began to study what he called "lighter and faster artillery", because he said that the news from the feedback from various armies said that the artillery was very useful after being equipped with flowering shells, but the only thing lacking was that the weight increased, the mobility was worse, and it was more susceptible to moisture, and it often took more than a dozen people to complete the work of five people in theory, which brought a lot of unnecessary trouble to the artillery team. The number of artillery also increased unnecessarily for this.

The staff officers who graduated from the military university wrote this in the summary report, and then submitted it directly to Li Tai, who paid great attention to it after learning about it, and then immediately began to study the lightness of artillery, so he didn't even care about the things that happened between Li Yuanchang and Li Erma, but when Suning came to visit him in his palace, he always felt that he seemed to have some strange changes.

Therefore, in the process of research, Suning asked Li Tai like this: "Qingque, don't you care about Li Yuanchang's affairs at all?" Why don't you move at all? ”

Li Tai said while doing the real yàn: "What is the use of what actions do I have? The damned are dead, the undeserving are dead, and the whole palace has become a battlefield, using the artillery and flowering shells that we have worked so hard to research, have they asked us what we mean? Sanming, I really thank you now, I really thank you, if it weren't for you, it is estimated that sooner or later one day I would also embark on the path of Li Yuanchang. ”

Suning was shocked and asked, "Why do you say that?" ”

Li Tai put down the real yàn in his hand and showed a helpless smile: "Others think I'm young and don't know anything, but I'm also eighteen years old, I'm already very old, I know everything I should know, and I know everything I shouldn't know." Why did Li Yuanchang die, and why did the flowering bomb that we worked so hard to research explode in the palace? I know it all, I know it all, so I'm so grateful to you, Sanming, if it weren't for you. What path will I take?

I have something I want to do, but also something I can do, do you know that when I went to visit my brother in the East Palace a few times ago, the lights in the East Palace were bright and there were so many people in a hurry to deal with government affairs, which touched me a lot, and my palace often stayed up all night, but in the East Palace I didn't feel any of the things that excited me, and I didn't want to do anything there.

So, there are people around me who want me to compete for the throne, but in fact, where do they want me to be the emperor? That's hoping that after I become the emperor, I will give them high-ranking officials. They want to get the merit of the dragon, hehehe, I don't want to be the emperor, I don't want to deal with government affairs, I don't want to be tired like my brother, and I don't want to be like my father, I end up killing each other, and father and son are in reverse. Is it really necessary for a yellow chair? ”

Suning was silent for a long time. Then he slowly spoke: "For you, that chair has no value, not even a box of gunpowder, but for those who want to gain power, it is a fatal attraction, not everyone is like you." found what they really like to do, and are willing to fight for it for the rest of their lives, even to give up the power of the emperor.

More people don't know what they want to do, so they have to follow the crowd and become officials. Fighting for power and profit, and finally waking up in the middle of the night, I don't even know myself, even I hate myself, those big corrupt officials and powerful ministers, it is estimated that they will be scared awake in the dream, they have done too many bad things, there will be retribution, you have to remember, Qingque, there will be retribution. ”

Li Tai didn't say anything, and silently restarted the research of real yàn, studying compressed gunpowder, compressing gunpowder in a smaller space than before, but to enhance the power of gunpowder, so that the actual effect of use will not be smaller than before weight reduction, the army hopes to reduce weight, increase flexibility and mobility, not at the cost of reducing the power of artillery, which requires more intensive research.

But Suning knows that since this kind of research has begun, and since this demand has been put forward, then the action from artillery to muskets has begun, this is a process that will not be interrupted, this is an inevitable process, and the time required for this process will not be as slow, tortuous, and bumpy as the original world, and it will definitely be a glorious road.

Li Tai gave up what he once thought he wanted, he found what he really wanted, so he jumped out of the strange circle of royal power struggle, he must be able to start and finish well, but not everyone can start and finish well like Li Tai, Li Yuanchang has died, everything has ended, and the next step is not internal fighting, but real external expansion and internal war.

The army of the Tang Dynasty has blocked the war out of the country, the war is far away in the west, the four empires are competing on that land, the Persian Empire of the Tang Empire and the Three Kingdoms Alliance of the Eastern Roman Empire, together to clean up the Arab Empire, the Tang army of 100,000 horses is stationed in the Persian Empire, all the money and supplies are provided by the Persians, which does not need to consume the national strength of the Tang Dynasty, all the Tang Dynasty needs is to transport weapons and ammunition, and this part of the cost will also be calculated to the Persians, Even the death and wounding of the Tang soldiers had to be paid by the Persians.

Therefore, the war has been far away from the Tang Dynasty, since the end of the Liaodong Campaign, the war has been far away from the Tang Dynasty, away from the people living on the Tang Dynasty, the students of the Military University and the students of the University of Political Science and Law, once they have entered the official career, then without exception, they have to go to the most dangerous and difficult places at the border to experience, at least stay for three years before they can be transferred to other places, because they are officers, standing officers, and need to assume more important responsibilities than soldiers.

For everyone, the new era of Datang has come, once the pace of the times moves, it is impossible for everyone to stay out of the matter, do not follow the times, they will be abandoned by the times, if they are not willing to be abandoned, then they must follow the footsteps of the times, follow the times, move forward together, progress together, face what is about to happen together, and face the changes that are about to be faced together.

The Tang army already has artillery, from scratch, from the idea of gunpowder weapons to the official installation of artillery, it took eight years, which is absolutely indispensable to Suning's contribution and Li Tai's talent, without the efforts and struggles of these two people, artillery will not appear until at least the Mengyuan era, and now Datang already has artillery, with flowering shells, which can inflict a destructive blow to individual soldiers and city walls, and the traditional infantry phalanx has become a live target for artillery, which is the beginning of military reform. Military reform will inevitably bring about changes in society as a whole.

Everyone doesn't need to look back, and they can't look back, because, real men never look back at explosions! (To be continued......)
