Chapter 85: True and false

On the way back, Mu Ling couldn't help but approached the window. While no one was around, he rolled off the horse and got into the carriage.
Che Yan passed by in the official way of the bluestone slab, without any pause.
Sit down in the compartment, took the wet towel from Han Guangzhao, and Mu Ling rubbed it vigorously on his face.
It was just a simple cleanup, and the appearance changed strangely.It still has a high-nose, deep-looking look, but the eyebrows are slenderer and the complexion is fairer.The whole person is three points more beautiful, which is a beautiful beauty unique to young people. .
Originally, Mu Ling was a young man in his early twenties, but now it seems that he is only 16 or 7 years old.
"These things are really uncomfortable sticking to my face." Mu Ling smiled, her voice cleared a lot.
"Who told His Highness Six to end?" Han Guangzhao smiled and handed a cup of tea.
Mu Ling was not busy drinking water, and anxiously asked, "Han Qing, is the crossbow really so powerful?"
Han Guangzhao's face was heavy. "The previous news was true. This kind of crossbow has a long and strong range. It is the nemesis of Tiefu Tu. Pei Ye this man retreated from the North for many years. He thought he was trapped in the field and tied his hands. And I have no time to study this thing. It is really a confidant. "
Mu Ling looked sad, "What should I do?"
"Don't worry," Han Guangzhao smiled, and found something out of his sleeve.
The whole body is dark and smooth, and it is an easy-to-carry crossbow.
Mu Ling froze, and then she looked happy. "It was successful. Don't let you be involved in danger."
Han Guangzhao also couldn't hold back his excitement. He laughed three times before saying, "It's just a blessing. It is a godsend."
Before that, they sent a secret emissary to contact Zhao Ding from Nanying to ask for a drawing of a crossbow.
After I got it, I immediately ordered the craftsmen of the team to carry out R & D and imitation. I thought that I could get the clue in three or five days. I didn't expect that the production was extremely difficult. Not a few times.
In desperation, they found Zhao Ding again and wanted to get a sample.
The result was categorically rejected by Zhao Ding. The production of Kaitian Crossbow was under the strict control of the Ministry of Defense, each of which had a clear number, and the failed products were immediately destroyed, with no possibility of theft.
Even threats with wives and children are useless, because it is impossible to accomplish this, it will only kill lives.
Seeing that the threat was useless, Han Guangzhao and others simply came up with a weird plan.
He went into battle and got one back!
This is an almost impossible task, but for the future of Beishuo, Han Guangzhao decided to take a risk.
He first ordered the skilled craftsmen of the team to imitate a bow and crossbow based on the drawings. The appearance was identified by Zhao Ding for help. It was absolutely the same. Of course, the core was not so powerful.
At today's dinner, Han Guangzhao carried it close to her and hid in her sleeve. After designing Pei Tuo to carry out his open crossbow to test, Han Guangzhao entered a high degree of tension. Every sentence was carefully designed. Finally, Pei Tuo nodded and agreed to give it a try.
After shooting through the iron armor on the opposite side, he deliberately pretended to be incredible, and rushed forward, in fact, he secretly changed the bow, crossbow and hands hidden in his sleeves.
Fortunately, Da Zhou ’s new crossbow is foldable for easy carrying and small size. He moved quickly and lightly without being noticed. It is also Da Zhou who despised him as a scholar who could not martial arts.
Han Guangzhao was not 100% sure about buying Zhao Ding, even if he used his wife and children as bait. Although the other party is now obedient, how can anyone judge in private? Zhao Ding has a long history of hatred towards Bei Shuo. Coupled with such delicate objects as the crossbow, it is too easy to move his hands and feet on the map of the organization.
But with a real thing is not the same.
Even if the organ map was manipulated by Zhao Ding, as long as he followed the actual research, he could find the real key sooner or later. So at the beginning, they didn't put all their bets on Zhao Ding.
"The boy Pei thought he was arrogant, but only paved the way for Han Qing's tricks." Mu Ling sighed with consolation.
"Nanxiang Hou will openly display this thing in front of us. I'm afraid it's not just about blood. It's more about deterrence." Han Guangzhao laughed. Second, I'm afraid I don't want to go to war from top to bottom. So show this thing and deter me. "
"And I bet that the production of such crossbows must be extremely difficult, otherwise the Great Zhou Army would already be ready."
"So back home, we still have a long way to go."
Mu Ling nodded and became silent.
Han Guangzhao inspected the situation and suddenly asked, "Your Highness is depressed, but because of what the princess said before."
"No." Mu Ling shook her head decisively.
Although he was determined to deny it, Han Guangzhao knew it and laughed: "The two armies are confronting each other, and each means is nothing. This polo battle is a major event between the two countries. It cannot be discussed by ordinary competition. Moreover, our masters are here. The country hasn't moved, and everyone in the Big Zhou is the elite of the embargo, which is unfair to us. It is reasonable to use some means to make tricks. "
"I see." Mu Ling was poked at the center and shook her head impatiently. "I'm not depressed anymore, just a little regret. This time I'm going south, I won't be able to see General Pei."
Han Guangzhao smiled. The atmosphere of Beishuo has always respected the heroes. Pei Yu succeeded in the first battle, and after years of stationing in northern Xinjiang, he let Beishuo's army return several times. Of course, Beishao Chaoye regarded it as the number one enemy, but he also admired it. Mu Ling in front of him is the number one, admiring Pei Yi.
"His Royal Highness doesn't have to be anxious, after all, we can meet each other on the battlefield."
"Of course I want to compete with him, but I also hope that I can talk with him about the world." Mu Ling said sincerely,
"Don't you see Nanxiang Hou this time, but you've also seen half of General Pei."
Mu Ling was full of disdain: "Hum, kid, is impulsive and worthy of being the nephew of General Pei? It really stigmatizes the Pei family."
Han Guangzhao was speechless. Why are you a Beishuo prince worrying about the door of Pei's house?
After thinking about it, Han Guangzhao said, "When I look at the back of the Nanxiang Hou staring at the princess, the eyes are very interesting. Most of them are devoted to the princess, but they are not available. That's why the attitude is so bad."
When Qin Min left the stand, Pei Tuo and others just passed by. Others did not squint, but Pei Tuo stared at the back for a long time. Han Guangzhao's eyes were sharp and he noticed immediately.
Mu Ling hesitated and nodded: "The princess is very beautiful, and it is no wonder that he made him love."
Han Guangzhao smiled, "Haha, your Majesty can rest assured." It is a hard character, afraid of not being good at serving, but didn't say a few words, but poked heartily.
"It's just ... I don't want to marry the princess to my father the emperor today. I might meet again after three years, maybe there will be waves again."
"The so-called turbulence depends only on the strength of the two countries." Han Guangzhao laughed. "If my dynasty is prosperous and the military is strong, let alone the princess, even if your Highness wants you to serve the Emperor Zhou, it will be captured."
Mu Ling was drinking tea. He spit out when he heard it, and stared up at Han Guangzhao: "Han Qing, don't talk nonsense, I don't have such a bad hobby as my elder brother."
Han Guangzhao laughed: "The minister just remembered that His Royal Highness once pointed to the oath of heaven and made a vow to one day let Nan Chen Yulang serve wine for his Tsing Yi. Now it seems that this new Zhou Xinjun Rongse is not inferior to that legend. South Chen Yulang. "
Mu Ling showed an expression of toothache. The emperor of the Northern Dynasties was indeed born very well, and he was no worse than the beauties in the palace. When he thought of the hobby of his elder brother, there was a chill.
Thinking of Qin Hui instead, Mu Ling was uncomfortable for a while. Although he was reprimanded, although there were only two or three sentences, he was born arrogant and never suffered such an insult, and was extremely humiliated.
Even if he went to Beishuo in the future, the man was also his mother, maybe he would bow down on his knees, and it would be even more depressing.
Han Guangzhao was laughing and laughing, fingers kept stroking the open crossbow in his sleeve.
With the most important goal in hand, it's time to leave Da Zhou!
Although the two bows and crossbows are exactly the same, they are not afraid of discovering them within a short period of time. Even if they find them, they will only think that the bows and crossbows are broken. According to Zhao Ding, these bows and crossbows often break down because the box is too fine.
It's better to leave early.
The next peace talks went smoothly, and Beishuo did not care too much about disputes over a small amount of money.
Three days after the polo match, the exchange of national books was completed and the new contract came into effect. Two days later, a large number of engagement gifts promised by Beishuo were delivered, and two hundred Tiefu butchers were on their way. After the transfer of the two sides is completed, the two countries will not only conclude peace, but also select a city in the east to carry out business transactions.
It can be said that during the talks, both sides achieved satisfactory results.
After that, Beishuo quickly packed up and set off.
Standing on the top of the mountain north of the capital, watching the convoy winding at the foot of the mountain.
Pei Yue was silent, the cold wind blew up the plain white clothes, and the handsome features were painted with a touch of golden mang by the afterglow of the setting sun.
After standing for a while, Pei Tuo couldn't help but ask, "Uncle, why are you going so twists and turns, what if they research the real drawing of the organization?"
Before Ding Pei answered, Zhao Ding whispered, "It is the lord's kindness, otherwise how can my wife and children return safely?"
As he said, he fell to his knees, and his gratitude was beyond words.
He was loyal to Pei Yi, so he reported the incident with a secret letter the next day after he was found.
Cao Qi and others made a plan urgently.
Not only must the bamboo basket of the Beishuo ambassador be drunk, but Zhao Ding's family must be rescued.
Even for the latter purpose, Pei Ye did not hesitate to let Pei Tuo play in person and performed a good show. Yes, in the end, Han Guangzhao took away the crossbow, which was specially made by the Ministry of Industry. Of course, the drawings were also matched.
Pei Min bent over and helped Zhao Ding.
"Every soldier in northern Xinjiang is my Majesty and my brother. Everyone has defended the country and has suffered enough injuries. If even his wife and children can't be saved, what is the meaning of fighting in this life? Even if the plan is unsuccessful, you have to redeem it. "Pei Yan said in a deep voice.
Zhao Ding burst into tears, and the dozens of guards following him could not help but move.
Cao Qi shook his fan and laughed, "It is our blessing that the emperor is compassionate about waiting for me. It is just that the emperor agrees to such a plan?"
After all, opening a crossbow matters. Such things as organs are of a certain probability. What if Beishuo had to take the out of his luck, and he tried to figure out the correct organ against the wrong organ map? The best guarantee is to leave them without any clues.
"The emperor has his own mound," Pei Min laughed. In his daily conversations, he had already seen that Qin Nuodi and Bei Shuo were determined to take it, just waiting for an opportunity.
The kung fu of speaking has completely disappeared the end of the long line of envoys.
Pei Ye and his party also descended the mountain and returned to the Perak camp.
Dai Deyao and Ren Jinglei greeted everyone.
Pei Yue entered the room and asked, "Can Fang Yuan's heels be found?"
Ren Jinglei took off his nephew familiarly for him, and replied, "I've got some eyebrows. I'm just not sure yet."
With such a polo technique, it is never possible for ordinary officials to come out at the end. In this era, playing polo is an exclusive entertainment activity for nobles. It is easy to play. But if you want to play well, it is definitely a money burning business. The vast field, high-quality steeds, and good enough opponents are indispensable.
Fang Yuan's qualities are not like ordinary junior officers.
So after the polo match, Pei Yi immediately let Ren Jinglei test it.
"This matter can be done slowly, you don't have to be too anxious." Ren Jinglei was raised by him since he was a child. Knowing that his subordinates had a heart for Nan Chen's people, Pei Yue consoled warmly.
"The subordinates know the size, the general need not worry." Ren Jinglei responded with a smile.
Knowing that this adopted son and apprentice was much better than Pei Tuo's uneasy nephew, Pei Ye didn't say much.

Qin Nuo swaggered in the study and quickly reviewed the memorials.
He has been in the throne for several months, and he is gradually getting comfortable with this job. Efficiency has improved, and the review has been completed in two days.
Huo Youchan helped to prepare cinnabar by the side. This kind of bright red tan sand red ink is specially used for Royal Annotation. After adjusting for a while, Huo Youchan couldn't help but said, "I don't understand a little, how this Beishu diplomatic mission spoke so well."
After the polo match, the remaining peace talks between the two sides progressed surprisingly smoothly. Beishuo accepted all the suggestions and bargains made by the big Monday side with little objection. In particular, the terms of setting up a business town are very happy.
Both sides exchanged their credentials with He Qi, and they kindly said goodbye and broke up.
"The main purpose was completed, of course, I can't wait to return to China." Qin Nuo laughed and did not conceal the story of the open crossbow of Pei Yibao before.
Huo Youchan was surprised, "Why does the emperor agree with General Pei's leaking of the organ map? Even if the drawings are manipulated, it is easy to correct the drawings in conjunction with the entity." Although it was only fakes that were replaced by Han Guangzhao, it was on the market On the battlefield, the soldiers used by Da Zhou must not be fakes, and some of them must be taken away and flow into Beishuo.
"It is impossible to completely conceal such a large-scale project of the Ministry of Defense from the development of a crossbow. Once it is put on the battlefield, it will lose more and be copied. Good results. "
If Beishuo does not succeed this time, it will be unwilling to give up. In the past one or two years, he will definitely take frequent shots, place spies, buy craftsmen, and be annoying. The development of Kaitian Crossbow belongs to the Department of Gewu. In the Department of Gewu, Qin Nuo also has several important scientific research projects. If he is detected by Beishuo, it would not be too small. Even every possible plan could not be achieved. In case the Beishuo dog jumped off the wall in a hurry, it would be bad to start the war in these two years. Qin Nuo's overall plan will be chaotic.
So just let them get a fake and give them peace of mind for the time being.
"There were no mistakes in the previous agency drawings, but the Da Zhou Industry Department worked hard and studied for three or four years before it succeeded. Beishuo's mathematics and the artisan's way were far worse than those of my dynasty. It was normal to study fake drawings for four or five years "Qin Nuo said simply.
In fact, if it wasn't for Qin Nuo's golden finger in the middle, the research on opening the crossbow might not be successful so far.
"Let them do more work, it can also consume some energy and financial resources, so as not to hit my frontier all day."
Pei Min proposed this plan, in fact, it is also Qin Nuo's mind. After three or five years, he will start with Beishuo and determine the victory and defeat in the first battle, instead of such a long-term battle.
Although the two have not been open and honest, they already have a tacit understanding.
Huo Youchan laughed. "Push yourself and others. This is Beishu so much effort to send 200 Tiefu butte horses. Wouldn't it be the same idea?"
"It's really possible." Qin Nuo looked at the discount in his hand and felt a little stomachache.
The discount was sent by the Ministry of Defense. As soon as the two hundred horses were delivered, they were quickly taken away by the soldiers. Immediately afterwards, he sent this coupon and asked for a special place to allocate manpower to raise and study its breeding methods.
One opening is 80,000 silver. This is just the cost of building the site. The next step is to recruit craftsmen, place guards, and test horses ... everything is money.
Where is this two hundred war horses? Beishuo wouldn't really have the same idea as himself.
Use these partial door technologies to consume the court's financial resources and material resources, so as to achieve the purpose of pulling the hind legs.
