"They will definitely die faster by then..." Xiao Han was already drunk when he was blown by the cold wind outside. Hearing Xiao Lizi's words, his head felt hot and he subconsciously muttered something in a low voice.
"Huh?" Li Shimin was originally focused on Xiao Han, but how could he not hear Xiao Han's muttering at this time?
I saw his eyes narrowed, and he immediately stared at Xiao Han with a smile but asked: "Oh? What's the explanation for this?"
Xiao Han was shocked when he heard this, and the drunkenness that just came to his head immediately turned into cold sweat, and he said hesitantly: "What? What's the explanation? Your Majesty, do you want to relieve yourself?"
"Relieve yourself?" Li Shimin was not moved by Xiao Han's words. Instead, he cast a sinister glance at his lower body: "Believe it or not, I will immediately have someone relieve you right now and then take you to the palace. I'm on duty! Just in time, didn't you suggest Liu Hongji come two days ago? Now we are together, and I will have someone to talk with me tonight!"
"Let's talk with you tonight? Uh, let's forget it, right? I heard that there can only be one man in the palace at night, so Wei Chen should just live outside the palace and make a living!"
Hearing that Xiao Lizi even threatened him to become an eunuch, Xiao Han didn't dare to make any more jokes, so he had to bow his hands and said honestly: "Your Majesty, actually you don't have to worry about this matter so much. I just want to give you a simple explanation." Example, you will understand!”
"Oh? What example?" Li Shimin raised his eyebrows and asked.
Xiao Han scratched his head and said, "Your Majesty, do you think who can wake up if a monkey and a wild boar compete in strength?"
"Monkey? Wild boar?" Li Shimin knew that this was the example Xiao Han mentioned, but he didn't know what it meant.? But he still answered patiently: "Of course the wild boar wins! Not to mention those big wild boars weighing hundreds of kilograms, the strength of even a small wild boar is not comparable to that of a weak monkey!"
"Congratulations, Your Majesty!" Xiao Han complimented, and then asked: "Then, Your Majesty, if they don't compete in strength and instead compete in tree climbing, who will win?"
"Hmph, of course it's a monkey..." Li Shimin was confused by the question, and naturally felt a little unhappy in his heart. He was about to ask Xiao Han if he was treating him like a fool, but suddenly, as if he thought of something, he suddenly became violent. With a shock, the whole person froze there.
"Your Majesty, this is the truth." Xiao Han saw Li Shimin standing thoughtfully under the eaves, and echoed behind him: "Your Majesty, the biggest threat to us from the prairie people is their cavalry and archery! After all, They have lived on horses since they were born, and their riding and shooting skills are naturally much better than ours! There is no need to say more about this.
The Tubo people are barbaric by nature! When fighting, they often sacrifice their lives. What they honor is nothing more than their own barbaric bodies and ignorant beliefs!
And although we Tang people are not as good as them in these two aspects, we do have a smart mind! So we invented horseshoes, crossbows, and even firearms!
Especially firearms, they are not set in stone! But it needs continuous improvement! Up to now, the firearms workshop has been upgraded several times, and the firearm formula that the man stole has been replaced by more powerful and more convenient firearms! Their current power and types are difficult for even a small minister to comprehend!
That's why Wei Chen said that in this case, if they rely on the strengths of their own race and fight to the death with us, they might have a chance of winning! But they have to give up what they are best at and compete with us for what we are best at! That is not asking for suicide! The only option is death? ! "
"The body of a wild boar is not comparable to that of a monkey, so why do we have to compete with it in terms of head?" After hearing Xiao Han's explanation, Li Shimin's eyes finally lit up a little bit, and then he burst out laughing!
"Almost, that's what it means!" Seeing Li Shimin laughing heartily, Xiao Han also laughed with him. He looked like a fox stealing a chicken!
"Okay! You're right!" After a long time, Li Shimin's laughter finally subsided. He glanced at Xiao Han, who was still chuckling to himself next to him, and said, "Although the truth is like this, these things are wandering outside. , it is always better to put it in your own hands and feel at ease! Therefore, after the New Year, Hou Junji will still stay in the west. If anyone is found using firearms, I will send an army to raze them to the ground!
As for you, well, it’s really hard to go out this time, so go home and have a good New Year, and after the New Year starts, continue to preside over all matters of the Firearms Research Institute! Although what you said just now seems to be a self-promotion and self-praising, but seeing that firearms and horseshoes are indeed made by your hands, I reluctantly hold my nose and admit it!
After returning to the Firearms Research Institute, I will still need your smart brain to continue to arm this monkey so that it can one day roar proudly in the mountains and forests! When the time comes, let alone the wild boar, even the lions and tigers will crawl under its feet! "
"Here!" Xiao Han trembled, and then he held his hands up overjoyed!
From the beginning of the conversation, he noticed that Xiao Lizi's self-proclaimed name quietly changed from "I" to "I", which means that the arrangement just came from the emperor! Once the golden words are spoken, they will never be changed!
"After the emperor drank with many ministers last night, he got drunk with Xiao Han and other former officials of the Qin Dynasty!"
"Xiao Hou, who returned from Lingnan, once again took up the post of director of the Firearms Research Institute and will take office in the next year!"
"Liu Hongji, who came back with Xiao Hou, was not invited by His Majesty. After drinking a few cups of tea, he became drunk and went crazy! He chased some old enemies and ran around the palace, overturned countless tables, and scared countless ministers to avoid them. !”
I don’t know where the news about what happened in the palace last night spread out. Anyway, after one night, the people in the entire Chang’an City were talking about the affairs of those important people. Even if it snowed heavily all day and night, it didn’t snow. Put out the fire of gossip in their chests.
"Your Majesty has given the Firearms Research Institute back to you, does that mean you won't be allowed to go out again for the time being?"
At three o'clock in the morning, there was already the sound of people clearing the snow outside, but in the back house of Xiao Mansion, Xue Pan was still like a bird clinging to someone, clinging tightly to Xiao Han's side, with a pair of pink cheeks, There is still a bit of a flushed aftertaste.
"Huh..." lit a cigarette and took a deep breath. Until the pungent smoke filled his chest, Xiao Han breathed it out comfortably. Suddenly, the whole bedroom was filled with smoke. There was a strong smell of smoke.
"Ahem, it smells bad! What are you doing smoking this thing?" Xue Pan had never smelled the smell of smoke. When he smelled it, he immediately coughed twice and covered his nose and said displeased.
"Hey, you don't understand. A cigarette afterwards can make you happier than a god~"
