Shangguan Wan 'er walked towards Ye Qing and smiled gently and politely.
"Old General, Wan 'er has learned a little of Mozi. Gongshu, I'm specially here to be your assistant!”
Assistant?
This little girl was still trying to sell eye drops in front of him?
Actually, she was here to be the empress's eyes.
Even though he knew that the empress was doing this for his own good.
However, he was really not used to having someone act as a guardian in the name of an assistant.
He felt that he was going to be crippled!
That feeling was really not good!
"Thank you!"
After Ye Qing said these two words, he walked into the courtyard of the Ministry of Works.
There were several functional departments in the Ministry of Works compound, and each assistant minister was in charge of a department.
Some were in charge of irrigation, some were in charge of construction, and some were in charge of military.
Ye Qing wanted to go to the military department.
It was obvious that the current military technology research room was the busiest and most crowded.
"The old general is here!"
"Please, please!"
When the assistant minister of the Ministry of Works saw Ye Qing, he immediately welcomed him personally and let Ye Qing sit in his seat.
A large table that looked like a long conference table was covered with design drawings provided by Ye Qing.
A bunch of Advanced Blacksmiths were currently researching the new concepts. They had already understood everything except for the two new concepts.
"Old General, your aiming method for the mortar landing point and the variable tripod range control method are too advanced.”
"That's right. Although you described it, we only know a rough idea.”
"It's still very difficult to implement it!”
“......”
The craftsmen spoke one after another, one after another, stating their problems.
Finally, they finished talking, and Ye Qing remembered their problem.
He looked at Shangguan Wan 'er and said,"Wan' er, tell me your opinion!"”
"I-I've never heard of it."
"I'm here to…"
Ye Qing grinned and rolled his eyes at the girl.""If you haven't heard of it, then learn it well and listen to it well.”
"Here, you have to listen to me.”
"Otherwise, I don't want your assistant!”
"You!"
Shangguan Wan 'er immediately held back, then pouted her little mouth and nodded her head aggrievedly."Alright, I'll listen to you!"
Ye Qing smiled. This was exactly what he wanted to hear.
Then, he looked at the big guy and said seriously,"Everyone, when faced with a new thing, you're just studying the blueprint?”
"We should combine theory with practice to quickly understand the new knowledge.”
"Hurry up and change your official uniform into ordinary clothes. Go to the weaponsmithy!”
As soon as she finished speaking, everyone panicked and looked at Shangguan Wan 'er.
All these little tricks could not hide from Ye Qing's eyes.
Even though he was old and short-sighted, he could still see clearly at this distance.
This girl had already told him yesterday that she wanted to put on an act here!
Shangguan Wan 'er just stared at them, not knowing what to do.
Ye Qing did not make it clear. He said directly,"Lead the way to the manufacturing workshop!"”
"No!"
"Old General, you can't go there. There's coal ash and wood ash there. Your internal organs are injured."
Ye Qing's eyes lit up when he heard that.
Pa!
He slammed the table, his eyes bloodshot as he roared.
"Shangguan Wan 'er, you told them yesterday, right?”
"I, I…"
Ye Qing pointed at her and said seriously," You are joking with the country. You are joking with the lives of the soldiers of Songzhou who are about to face the Tibetan army."”
"If this equipment doesn't come out before the war starts, can you bear the responsibility?”
Shangguan Wan 'er had never felt such anger from the old general. Even though she was a knowledgeable Prime Minister, she could not resist the anger of a veteran who had killed countless people.
She looked like she was about to cry and said aggrievedly,"This is a siege weapon!"
"Even if the Tibetans want to make a move, Songzhou is a defensive battle. There's no need for that!”
Humph!
"A siege weapon can't be used for defense?" Ye Qing snorted.”
"My design is to combine offense and defense!”
"You'd better not cry. Don't cry in front of me.”
"If I were 30 years younger, I might still be tender and protective of women.”
Whoosh!
Ye Qing sighed, and his eyes started to tear up.
To be honest, after returning from the front line, he was often plagued by illness and could not design in peace. He would have chest tightness and headaches after concentrating for a while.
However, he still gritted his teeth and designed it bit by bit!
He had long expected that after the surrounding countries knew that he was seriously ill, they would definitely take action.
Putting everything else aside, after that old friend of the Tibetans knew that he was seriously ill, he would definitely send troops!
Once the army was dispatched, Songzhou City would be the first to bear the brunt!
There were still three old comrades in Songzhou City!
He thought that they would have a good ending!
He thought that the soldiers should try their best to survive!
Therefore, he was anxious!
He had to design this 'cold weapon era cannon' that could attack and defend at the same time!
Even though it wasn't enough time for the whole country to install it!
However, as long as they did not waste time, they could have Songzhou equip a hundred of them before the battle.
However, the empress wanted to stop him, and everyone wanted to stop him.
He knew that everyone was doing this for his own good.
However, none of this was what he wanted!
Perhaps he had listened to everyone and lived for two more days!
However, in the end, he would definitely die with grievances!
He wanted to laugh in the netherworld!
Even though he had the system now, who knew when the system would give him a mission? Would the reward be an extension of his lifespan?
Everything was unknown.
Therefore, he lived every day as if it was his last.
He didn't want to waste time, not even two hours.
And these people who cared about him would think of ways to let him rest!
He had no choice but to become the kind of old man he used to hate!
An old man who didn't know what was good for him, who didn't understand others, and who was unreasonable!
Even though the empress would be sad, even though this would hurt the hearts of everyone who cared about him.
But he had no other choice!
Because after breaking their hearts, they could save thousands of times more people!
Even if they were heartbroken by him and there was no one to collect their corpses in the end!
He, Ye Qing, had no regrets!
A moment later, Ye Qing blinked and calmed his excitement.
He looked at Shangguan Wan 'er, who had her head lowered and was wiping her tears. Although he did not pity her, his heart ached for this little girl.
He took a deep breath and said gently and seriously,""Stop playing tricks, stop wasting my time, and stop caring about me.”
"If you are willing, you can learn from me.”
"Your talent is very good. After you learn it, when I die, you will be able to play a greater role.”
Shangguan Wan 'er immediately shook her head fiercely.""No, the old general won't die.”
Haha!
"Silly girl, everyone will die." Ye Qing laughed.”
"Let's go!"
"To the manufacturing workshop!"
Shangguan Wan 'er looked at the assistant minister of the Ministry of Works and the craftsmen who were in a difficult position.
She gritted her teeth and nodded reluctantly.
Immediately after, everyone was moved by Ye Qing's selflessness.
After they bowed deeply, they led the way.
They had to cherish the opportunity and learn from the old general!
In the future, he would strive to play an even greater role in the Great Tang's military industry!
Ye Qing smiled in relief because he saw two words!
Inheritance!
On the way to the weaponsmithy, Su Lie always kept a step's distance.
"Aren't you going home yet?"
"You're so stinky and stubborn. You don't take your life seriously." Su Lie smiled faintly.”
"Of course I'm going to collect your corpse!”
"Brother Su, I've treated you well, right?”
(Please support me, thank you)
