Chapter 572: Yanmen Pass

Batu couldn't help but feel happy when he heard what Chen Zhijing said. King Zhao was probably willing to cooperate with him. Even if he discovered Chen Zhijing's thoughts, he did not show it, but said lightly.

"Your Highness, I will tell the truth. This time, this time is the best time to enter Yan. If your Highness is hesitant about this, Xiao Wang said something that should not be said. You Han people have a saying that those who achieve great things do not care about the details, and another saying that a general will achieve success and thousands of bones are woven. Then Chen Kai is afraid of fighting, but your Highness is like him, willing to be a turtle with his head?"

A pair of bright eyes narrowed slightly, and asked Chen Zhijing very seriously. Chen Zhijing's expression was slightly expressed when he heard the words. Batu observed him carefully and continued.

"Think about it, we are not bordering on Da Chen, so there has been no conflict in history. We have always been in peace. On the contrary, it is the feud between Yan and Chen. Chen Kaizhi is a false lord, but how can he remember the insults suffered by the ancestors of Da Chen in the past dynasties? Your Highness thinks twice."

"This matter..." Chen Zhijing's eyes drooped slightly, hesitated for a while, and then smiled faintly: "I have indeed considered it. Now my great Chen Tianning Army is preparing to go to Beijing to change defense. If we take this opportunity to attack Yan, we can make some military achievements. But I think you also know that the court has to make up our minds, but it is not so easy. Not only is the empress dowager wandering, but even the officials cannot argue, so, this matter can only be discussed for a long time."

His previous words showed that he had the same position as Prince Batu, but the latter sentence told Batu that there was a lot of resistance now. It was not that he refused to help, but... the controversy was too great and he could do nothing.

Not only did Batu not feel disappointed, he cheered up and smiled and drew a big cake for Chen Zhijing.

"What if we have a great victory in the northern border at this time?"

"Oh?" Chen Zhijing was moved, his eyebrows raised slightly, and he asked excitedly: "Great victory?"

Batu continued to smile: "What if it was Yanmen Pass, we captured?"

A trace of unusual meaning flashed through Chen Zhijing's eyes, and he became more and more excited and became more interested. He looked at Batu seriously: "Are you really sure?"

"Nine out of ten!" Batu said with a look of winning when he saw Chen Zhijing's interest.

Chen Zhijing did not respond, his eyes turned around, thinking about Batu's words in his heart.

Batu looked at Chen Zhijing proudly.

"At that time, I think Da Chen is very willing to continue talking with Xiao Wang, but the fighter's opportunity is fleeting, so Da Chen should make a decision as soon as possible. Otherwise, if you miss the opportunity, Xiao Wang will have to regret it. OK, goodbye."

Chen Zhi nodded with his head.

Batu, who was about to leave, suddenly turned around and asked Chen Zhijing seriously: "Have you heard of the Buyi Society?"

"Buyishe..." Chen Zhijing was slightly stunned and couldn't help but be moved. He seemed excited after all, and looked at Batu with a wide eyes and looked at him seriously. He said in surprise: "Why, the prince actually knows this?"

"How come I don't know? I heard that these people, like the dragon, but the head but the tail, are like ghosts and ghosts, they are extremely well-informed and have spies everywhere. Not only that, they have great influence among ordinary people. You Dachen and many people regard them as living Bodhisattvas, because most of them are willing to help if there are any unfair things or poor people."

Chen Zhijing sneered: "These are just remnants of the various philosophers. They call themselves chivalrous, but in fact they are bewitching people's hearts under the banner of practicing the law for heaven and saving the world. More than two hundred years ago, there were people from the civil service who rose up in Nanchu. After that, Yan Shenggong Mansion had long regarded them as remnants and were attacking them everywhere. Now, they have disappeared more and more. Why, why did the prince suddenly mention this?"

Batu looked at Chen Zhijing and saw that he was particularly concerned, he couldn't help but sneer: "Among us Hu people, there are thieves in the Buyi Society. They actually bewitched the herdsmen and almost made trouble. According to my opinion, they did not disappear, but just hid deeper. Last month, we captured a remnant and tortured, but there was something interesting. This thief was actually related to Da Chen. It was originally a Ministry of Revenue of Your Country.

A brother named Zhang is strange to say that his brother is a high-ranking official, and he can't enjoy all his wealth and glory, and he even hangs with a group of thieves. You said, isn't this very full and full? The remnant has been beaten to death by us, but this person's brother is afraid that he can't escape the suspicion, because the literary spy who came out of seclusion was originally his brother's management. Your Highness, we and Da Chen are honest. Okay, I don't say much, goodbye!"

Chen Zhijing narrowed his eyes. When he heard the three words "Buyi Society", his eyes suddenly showed a fierce light, and his expression became particularly dark. He savored Batu's words carefully before he came to his senses and nodded to Batu: "I am waiting for the good news for His Highness."

"Don't worry, good news will come soon!"

Batu seemed very confident. As soon as he finished speaking, he waved his sleeves and left.

……………………

Chen Kaizhi returned to the mountains and couldn't help feeling tired. It was not because of his physical fatigue, but because he had a verbal debate with the prince today and was worried. Batu's purpose was not simple. If he destroyed the Great Yan with them, the troubles of the Great Chen Dynasty would only increase.

Now Chen Kaizhi just wants to live his own life, have status, money, and land. And everything has just begun, and he really doesn't want to have anything to do. Besides, the Hu people are not a good thing.

Hu Renlangzi is ambitious and cooperates with them. I am afraid that in the end, Chen Chao may be done with him. He will never do such a thing.

After going up the mountain, Master Wucai has already gone down the mountain. This is not enough to avoid facing Master Wucai and listening to all kinds of strange remarks.

At this time, the sound of cannons rumbled in the back mountain of Feiyu Peak, but the Tiefang and Gunpowder Workshop were starting to tinker with various firearms again.

People on this mountain have long been accustomed to the sound of cannons, so they all get used to it. In Chen Kaizhi's main hall, there is a clattering sound now. It is located in the main hall. It is a big clock. This is indeed a big clock, and it is also a big bell.

There was more than one person tall and standing here. The pointer was moving rhythmically, making a crisp sound. The movement was a little louder, but it could still be used. The cotton used in this article was glass. Every structure of the Big Ben was designed by Chen Kaizhi. This is everything on Feiyu Peak, which was guided by Chen Kaizhi himself, and after countless craftsmen's efforts, the first bell was tossed out.

For this clock, Feiyu Peak has put in a lot of manpower. Not only that, but the cost is also amazing. It is definitely not that simple to make a clock. What is involved is springs, gears, and many craftsmanship of glass.

The spring must be pulled out from softer steel, thanks to the improvement of the workshop's steelmaking technology, while the gears have extremely high requirements for abrasive tools, especially for craftsmen's skills. If each component cannot be matched, it will be a failure.

This big clock uses a vibrating pendulum clock. A pendant on the bottom is similar to a scale hammer, which sways left and right, forming periodic vibrations, which is very primitive, but after repeated improvements, the time notification is quite accurate.

Of course, the only disadvantage is that it is too big. The reason for too big is very simple. Because many constructions, due to process, cannot be smaller. The smaller the accuracy, and there is no problem with the accuracy of the project, the higher the difficulty. Therefore, you can only try your best to make it bigger. After it becomes bigger, the problem of component accuracy will be solved. Of course, even so, the big pendulum clock is still new in Chen Kaizhi's lobby. This is a product that crosses the ages.

Chen Kaizhi was not in a hurry to promote this big clock, because it was too big, and it had to be constantly improved and tried to make it smaller. However, because a lot of finished products were produced, it should not be wasted, so he simply moved here.

Many times, Chen Kaizhi would ask craftsmen to study various gadgets. Although these things have no output now, they can make craftsmen's technical reserves sufficient during the improvement process. For example, now, craftsmen can already make transparent glass, and for example, they are constantly improving molds and smelting techniques.

This is the technical reserve. Nowadays, it may not be possible to produce flawless products, but slowly, after a series of difficulties, in the end, one by one, one by one, can adapt to thousands of households.

Therefore, Chen Kaizhi was not anxious, but he was just a continuous investment in it.

After staying in the mountains for a few days, a news came, but it was Pegasus. Liu Xian rushed in a hurry, holding a note in his hand: "Young master, your son... look, the mansion report..."

Chen Kaizhi has been in the mountains these days and rarely goes down the mountain, so the news is relatively closed. He relies entirely on the news from the mansion to learn about the news outside the mountain.

Liu Xian also had the habit of reading newspapers. After all, he was the chief clerk and had long been used to understanding the trends of the court through this.

Chen Kaizhi took the mansion newspaper and said curiously: "What happened?"

"The news reported yesterday was copied into the residence today..." Liu Xian said with a laugh and cry: "Hu people broke through Yanmen Pass."

Yanmen Pass... is broken.

Chen Kaizhi was stunned.

"This Yanmen Pass has not been broken for seventy or eighty years. How could it be broken at this time?"

"What the diary report says is that the deputy general of Yanmen Pass offered the pass, and this person should be a detailed work of the Hu people."
