"Bengong has just received news that on the border of eastern Liao, the Jurchen Department has gathered tens of thousands of cavalry, and it is very likely that they will commit the border again. Lin Feng looked at the two people sitting down and spoke.

As soon as these words came out, Wei Xian and Su Xingchang's faces changed a little.

When the emperor was there, the Jurchen tribe repeatedly committed the border, trying to invade the south, and there were many major battles between the two sides, at the beginning, Daewoo could barely resist one or two, however, the more later, the corruption of the imperial court, local corruption was rampant, and then in the face of the menacing Jurchen cavalry, it was almost difficult to resist, and there were fewer victories and more defeats.

They didn't expect that they had just brought down King Ning when they heard such bad news.

The timing chosen by the Jurchen Ministry was too good.

Although the turmoil in the capital did not cause much turmoil, King Ning was removed, and it took time for both the court and the Beijing army to recover and adjust.

If you really make a mistake at this time, what should you do?

Wei Xian sighed for a long time, his face full of worry.

Lin Feng smiled bitterly and shook his head.

Don't talk about Wei Xian, this action of the Jurchen Ministry is that he was also a little caught off guard.

But what's the use of talking about that now?

Prevention and response are the right thing to do.

After calming down, Lin Feng looked at Su Xingchang first, and said solemnly: "The Beijing division has just experienced a wave of turmoil, and the affairs of the court will not be mentioned for the time being, the five military camps, as the main force of the Beijing army, must be adjusted as soon as possible and restore their combat strength, just in case."

Su Xingchang said: "Lin Gong rest assured, the training of the Zhongda Battalion, the West Battalion, and the South Battalion has never been put down, and you can go to the battlefield at any time. After

the fall of King Ning, with Lin Feng's encouragement, Su Xingchang naturally took over the East Battalion and the North Battalion, and became a veritable commander of the five military battalions.

Lin Feng nodded and looked at Wei Xian again.

"Young Master Wei, your household department immediately raised five million taels of silver, first, for the repayment of the salaries owed by the soldiers of the five military battalions, and second, the armaments of the five military battalions are too old, and the new armaments cannot be delayed.

"Moreover, the Jurchen tribe is eyeing my Daewoo and may invade the south at any time, and the grain and grass for the army to travel can be prepared in advance. Lin

Feng asked Su Xingchang and Wei Xian to come over, originally wanting to talk about the new armament of the five military camps, but he didn't expect that during this period, he received news from Liaodong, so he simply arranged it together.

Be prepared for danger in times of peace, be prepared, and be prepared.

After Wei Xian and Su Xingchang left, Lin Feng did not stay in the palace, and went directly to the Ministry of Industry after leaving the palace.

There is no way.

I thought that after overthrowing King Ning and removing this biggest threat, I could slow down a little, slowly gather the power of the various ministries, and then develop a wave of stuffiness, and then solve the remaining disasters step by step.

But the actions of the Jurchen Department made it difficult for him to feel at ease, and he had to prepare as soon as possible.

Even if there are many difficulties, he must rise to the occasion, otherwise once something goes wrong in Liaodong, the Jingshi will face the threat head-on, and at that time, the previous efforts will be in vain.

......

Ministry of Industry.

One of the six ministries of the imperial court, all civil engineering, water conservancy projects, and armament and ordnance manufacturing in the whole country are under the responsibility of the Ministry of Industry.

In order to renovate the armament of the five military battalions, the cooperation of the Ministry of Industry is inseparable.

Lin Feng took Qin Zhong to the Ministry of Works, and before he entered the door, he heard a voice from the courtyard.

"Lord Lu, this is a firearm that I have developed over the years.

"This thing is equipped in the army, it is definitely a big killer, and it will definitely help me Daewoo defeat Beidi, my lord, take a look." In

the inner courtyard of the Ministry of Industry, a very sloppy middle-aged man pulled Lu Gaoyi, who was wearing an official robe, and said in a pleading tone.

"Xing Ling, if you are finished, you can tell me how many troubles you have caused in the past year, if it weren't for the great achievements you have made, this official would have kicked you out long ago. "

Okay, while staying, this official has no time to pay attention to you now, before leaving, I advise you, don't waste your skills in this useless place, otherwise, this Yu Hengsi will no longer have a place for you."

Lu Gaoyi glanced at the middle-aged man angrily, turned around and prepared to leave.

"My lord, that year, the Jurchen tribe went south to plunder, and the villain's family was killed by the Jurchens, and the villain joined the imperial court, just to give full play to what he had learned in his life, help the imperial court to destroy the Jurchen tribe, and avenge my tragic death of his wife and children.

"My lord, you can let people test the power of this firearm, what the villain said is true.

"This firearm will definitely play a huge role on the battlefield.

Xing Ling was a little unwilling, and chased after him again, begging bitterly.

"Let go, if you are entangled again, don't blame Lord Ben for being polite.

Lu Gaoyi pushed the middle-aged man left and right behind him, pushed him out, and then, following closely behind Lu Gaoyi, he walked outside with a high spirit.

Xing Ling sat paralyzed on the ground, his face like ashes.

He had a very high talent in gunpowder, which was also the basis for his foothold in the Ministry of Engineering.

However, with the continuous study of gunpowder, he came up with a new idea, if he could use the power of gunpowder to create a firearm with great lethality, he could make up for the disadvantage of the Daewoo infantry army in the face of the Jurchen cavalry.

Over the years, he devoted himself to research, and finally made the first firearm.

And yet....

When he took out his masterpiece with joy, no one listened to him, and no one took a good look at the firearm he had invented.

This made his heart full of despair.

has the heart to serve the country, but is not taken seriously, only you know the taste.

And at this time.

Outside the engineering department, when Lin Feng heard the word firearm, he was stunned.

Since coming to this world, after such a long period of observation, there is Dongchang, Jinyiwei, and Cabinet, and he found that it was somewhat similar to the Ming Dynasty in the history of his previous life.

Lin Feng has a deep memory of that iron-clad dynasty, especially the firearms that that dynasty developed to its peak.

But in the past two months in this world, Lin Feng did not find any traces of this.

At first, he was a little disappointed.

I never expected that during today's trip to the Ministry of Industry, I heard the news in this regard, and it seems that the germ of firearms has just been born.

As a descendant, Lin Feng deeply knows the importance of firearms.

This is an invention that will affect generations to come.

"Overseer?"

Qin Zhong couldn't help but remind Lin Feng when he saw him staying there.

Lin Feng came back to his senses and smiled slightly: "It's okay, let's go in, we came here today to make a fortune." He

couldn't wait to see what kind of talent this person who invented firearms.
