Li Shen actually doesn't like to fight and kill. He prefers to use his brain. Many people say that the ancients were also smart and were no less intelligent than anyone else.

But there is one thing that is not mentioned, and that is knowledge and experience.

In terms of political means, a hundred Li Shens are no better than a fifth-rank official. But when it comes to some modern strategies, they are all the results of actual implementation after verification by many parties.

Li Shimin asked him to help Li Chengqian this time because Li Shen had many wild ideas that were not in line with this era but were very useful.

After Li Shen came back from the palace, he rushed into the study. He needed to be prepared for the worst outcome.

Li Shen himself is this kind of person. No matter what happens, he first imagines the outcome and then prepares an escape route.

Lu Dingniang and Wu Meiniang walked in. Only these few people could enter the study.

"Mr. Lang, it's time to eat. You've been here for a few hours." Lu Dingniang said softly.

"Well, don't worry, come sit down and tell you something." Li Shen pulled the two of them to sit next to him.

"When I entered the palace today, Aye decided to let me and my eldest brother go to conquer Goguryeo together."

"Ah? Lang Jun can't go. You don't know martial arts. The sword has no eyes on the battlefield, which is very dangerous." Lu Dingniang became anxious when she heard this.

"Don't worry, big brother and I won't go to the battlefield this time, we will just give orders from behind. So don't worry too much." Li Shen patted Lu Dingniang's little hand and comforted her.

"Your Majesty, although the danger this time is very small, we must be fully prepared in case of emergencies." Wu Meiniang said softly.

She knew that since Li Shimin let him go this time, Li Shen had to go no matter what, and not going would be disobedience, so she didn't say anything about not going.

"Don't worry, this time Aye allows me to bring two thousand guards, not only to protect me, but also to protect my elder brother."

Li Shen knew what Li Shimin meant by asking him to bring two thousand guards. The prince traveled with his own guards, and the prince Liu Shui.

However, Li Shimin still believed in Li Shen's protective power. At least Li Shen's several dangers were easily resolved.

Especially in the Tibetan attack, there were so few casualties between [-] and [-]. If it were the prince, Liu Su would have turned into bones by now.

Li Shimin knew that Li Shen's guard equipment was the most sophisticated in the Tang Dynasty. Because Li Shen was not willing to spend money, even his Beiya imperial guards could not equip him with many things.

He believed that relying on Li Shen's two thousand guards and under the cover of six rates, he would be able to bring the two princes back safely.

Li Shen's hundreds of thousands of dollars a year are not in vain.

The next day, Li Shen summoned three and a half giants from Prince Ji's Mansion. The three were Wang Hongfu, Wang Xuance, and Xue Rengui, and the other half was of course Di Renjie.

This was Di Renjie's first time participating in a meeting at Prince Ji's Mansion.

Taking a few people to sit down, Li Shen first asked Di Renjie.

"Huaiying, are you still used to it these past two days?"

"My lord, I'm still used to it." Di Renjie said politely.

"Well, it's good to get used to it. I have already arranged your father's affairs, and there will be news soon. As for you, just study with Wang Changshi first. If you don't understand anything, just ask him."

"Thank you, my lord."

After explaining Di Renjie and Li Shen, they started talking about business.

"I asked you to come here today because I have something to tell you. The King of Japan entered the palace yesterday, and His Majesty has informed me that I will follow the Crown Prince to conquer Goguryeo early next month. So I have arranged some things today, and everyone will perform their duties in my absence."

"Your Majesty is going to Goguryeo?" Wang Hongfu said in surprise.

Like others, he felt that Li Shen was just an idle prince who didn't understand military affairs and didn't know martial arts, so why would he go to Goguryeo?

"Okay, don't be surprised. Lao Wang, you have the most things to do when I'm not around. The Japanese plan mentioned a few days ago will continue, and spring is coming, and the projects on the Weishui River will also continue.

We also need to continue to recruit the craftsmen we need. Remember, as long as they have a certain skill or like to specialize in research, we need them.

The Chamber of Commerce also needs to increase publicity efforts to get more people to join as soon as possible. This year's goal is that more than [-]% of businessmen of all sizes in Datang will be our members.

This is very important for my subsequent plans.

There is also the expansion of cotton cultivation in the northwest, the cultivation of grapes, textile workshops, wine workshops, and, well, tea in the south also needs to be promoted. That seems to be it. Anyway, I can’t forget it even if I’m not in the industry. "

After talking about it for a long time, Li Shen could hardly remember how many properties he had.

Wang Hongfu took a notebook and wrote it down one by one. He had the most work and was the most tiring, and of course he earned more. According to the current industry, Wang Hongfu's dividend will increase this year. After Wang Hongfu finished remembering, Li Shen continued to say to Wang Xuance;

"Xuan Ce, Lao Wang has too many things to do. You are responsible for the affairs of Fuzhou Port. Yesterday I heard that there were Japanese pirates along the coast.

This cannot be tolerated. You arrange for people to recruit people on the coast to go to sea, and we form a pirate group. Don’t be in a hurry to go to sea yet, train on the coast of Datang for a while, and check if there are any Japanese pirates.

If you encounter Japanese pirates, let them feed the fish. Haven't our research institutes all developed long-range bed crossbows? Let's start making them and install them on the boat. "

Li Shen hated Japanese pirates the most, so the first thing he did was to deal with Japanese pirates. Li Shen's research institute had already developed a composite version of the three-bow bed crossbow, which was the crystallization of ancient and modern wisdom.

"Your Majesty, don't you need me to follow you this time?" Wang Xuance asked,

He thought Li Shen would take him with him this time. As a long history official, he would usually go with the prince.

"There is no danger this time. I am just waving the flag and shouting from behind. The formation of the fleet is very important. After training, we will release them to rob Japanese merchant ships.

Hmm~~~It's best to cover it up, so that no one can see that it was done by our Prince Ji's Mansion. Just take care of this. "

The plan of the Japanese state was very important to Li Shen, so he could only leave it to Wang Xuance because of the lack of manpower.

Then Li Shen said to Xue Rengui;

"Rengui, please send a quick horse to inform Zhao Tiejun that they are back. This time, Your Majesty allows me to take two thousand guards with me. Rengui, you go with me, and the cavalry battalion must also bring all the weapons and equipment. By the way." Also bring more bed crossbows.

By the way, there is also Shizhi water. Lao Wang went to buy some clay pots, the size of human heads, and put more Shizhi water in them. It might be useful. "

Li Shen racked his brains to think about what he should bring.

"My lord, should you bring more alcohol?" Wang Xuance reminded. This thing can be used to wipe wounds to prevent evil wind from entering the body. Wang Xuance knows this.

"Yes, yes, write it down quickly. Please help me think of anything else. I work hard every day and have a bad memory."

(Shizhishui is petroleum. According to the records of "Northern History" and "Yuanhe County Map", petroleum was discovered in the Northern Wei and Tang Dynasties, and more research has been done on the exploitation, performance and application of petroleum.

By the Tang Dynasty, oil had been used in lighting, medicine, medicine, military and other aspects.
