Forcing me to keep vigil for your childhood sweetheart? Then I'll leave you.

Because he also heard the news of King Qi's rebellion.

It’s just because Lin Yi’s entertainment city is opening, so he doesn’t want to spoil the fun.

"Xu Chuan, make arrangements. The luxury suite on the rooftop of the hotel should be soundproof, right?"

This was a special arrangement made by Lin Yi during construction.

"How about you guys go change your clothes first and I'll wait at the door?"

Seeing the worried faces of these "big shots", Xu Chuan didn't dare to be negligent.

After changing their clothes, they gathered at the entrance of the bathhouse.

Xu Chuan took them to the hotel.

Although the hotel is not magnificent, it gives people an urge to go in and try it out.

After getting the key and number plate, they walked into the manual elevator.

As Lin Chuchen shook the handle of the elevator, they slowly rose and arrived directly at the top floor!

"This thing is great...Have you thought about it a long time ago?"

Walking out of the elevator, Prince Qing looked surprised.

If he had this thing, he could build the barracks higher and support more soldiers with the same barracks area!

"I learned this from watching some mechanical engineering stuff before. I thought it was interesting, so I put it to use."

"Otherwise, wouldn't we be exhausted walking up seven floors?"

Lin Yi smiled, then took the key and opened the door of the top-floor luxury suite.

Although there are several luxury suites on the sixth floor, the one on the top floor is the most luxurious.

Looking from the balcony, you can even see through the city wall of Liangzhou City and see the scenery outside Liangzhou City.

The floor is covered with a tight wool blanket, which only gives people a sense of comfort when they walk on it.

The walls of this room have been specially treated with some uneven wooden blocks.

Xu Chuan didn’t know what it was used for, and neither did the craftsmen. But since Lin Yi said it could be soundproof, they just built it.

"You go out first, I want to talk to Lin Yi alone."

Huangfu Qingling asked Xu Chuan to leave.

Then Chu Yaoyue stood guard at the door.

"Lin Yi, I am the emperor of Dayong."

Huangfu Qingling said this with a serious look on his face.

But Lin Yi was so surprised that he was speechless.

Emperor? Or Empress?

The empress is by my side?

"I know you're surprised. In fact, few people in the entire court know that I'm a woman."

"The people I brought to help you are all people I have high hopes for."

Huangfu Qingling said very seriously, "They are all loyal and reliable. You don't have to worry about them."

She knew that the people in the Ministry of Revenue had suffered a deficit before, so Lin Yi would definitely be hesitant about the Ministry of Revenue coming to help.

"Then... I pay my respects to Your Majesty."

Lin Yi knelt down and kowtowed.

But this made Huangfu Qingling a little unhappy.

"You don't have to bow. I allow it."

She also felt that she was not used to Lin Yi's sudden greeting.

"Then, Your Majesty, what exactly is worrying you now?"

Lin Yi stood up and sat at the table.

"Royal sister, do you really want to tell him?"

"I'll just do the work."

Prince Qing was somewhat reluctant. After all, this would make Lin Yi feel that Dayong might not be so reliable.

"I'll leave it to you, do you have any solution?"

Huangfu Qingling's words made Prince Qing look embarrassed.

"Lin Yi, you should have met King Qi before."

"He rebelled."

She said the matter very calmly, "Do you have any solution?"

"I...I'm just a businessman, what can I do?"

Lin Yi smiled awkwardly, "But I can be sure of one thing."

"The King of Qi can't win."

After hearing this, although Huangfu Qingling's worries were reduced a little, she still felt that Lin Yi was just trying to please her.

"My spies said that the King of Qi has 60,000 soldiers and horses, and there are nearly 70,000 private soldiers gathered in various places!"

Prince Qing frowned, "If we can draw troops from the border, we won't have to worry about these 130,000 troops..."

"If we withdraw troops from the border areas, those areas may be attacked again."

"Then we'll be attacked from both sides."

Huangfu Qingling waved her hand and said that she would never let this happen.

"But relying on the defenders of Liangzhou City and the two surrounding cities, we can only gather 20,000 people at best!"

Prince Qing also thought that Lin Yi was trying to please the empress, so he ignored him and talked about military affairs.

"You don't seem to know what war depends on."

Lin Yi spoke slowly, playing with the bicycle model placed in the luxury suite.

Originally, this was just something he used to decorate his luxury suite, but at this point, he had some good ideas.

"Your Majesty, Your Highness, war depends on national strength."

"To put it bluntly, it's all about money!"

Lin Yi slowly said, "The Molotov cocktail I gave you costs money to make the alcohol, right? You also have to spend money on the bicycle, right?"

"And any equipment for soldiers costs money."

Upon hearing this, Prince Qing waved his hand and said, "That's why you don't understand. War depends on strong soldiers and strong horses, and a firm will!"

"A strong army and strong horses also rely on money!"

Lin Yi immediately said, "How much money can someone like the King of Qi earn by protecting his son?"

"To put it bluntly, it's robbery!"

"This kind of robbing is like draining the pond to catch all the fish. Even if he has so many soldiers, what's the point?"

These words made Prince Qing want to refute, but he could not think of anything to refute.

"Then what's your opinion?"

Huangfu Qingling was very interested in the idea that winning a war depends on national strength.

After all, Lin Yi created a miracle of making money.

"use this."

Lin Yi said as he took out a bicycle model.

"Isn't this a bicycle? It can be used to transmit information."

Prince Qing spoke slowly. He was still very satisfied with Lin Yi's invention.

"What if this happens?"

As Lin Yi spoke, he put the two bicycles in a row and used chopsticks to turn them into a "four-wheeled vehicle".

"What do you want to do?"

Prince Qing didn't understand what was going on, but he saw Lin Yi covering the surroundings of the "four-wheeled vehicle" with his hands.

"If you put iron plates around the vehicle and put people on it, wouldn't it be a weapon?"

Lin Yi's mouth curled up slightly, "With money, you can bring innovation, and these innovations can prevent your soldiers from being lost."

"This is what you call national strength."

Huangfu Qingling nodded slightly, "You can make a model first. I am quite interested in this iron turtle."

Not only Huangfu Qingling, but Prince Qing was also very interested.

If this thing can really be realized, then when the Iron Turtle drives over, the bows and arrows on the opposite city wall will be useless!

"Hmm... Let's use the template as an iron plate first."

As Lin Yi spoke, he went out to find some wooden boards and simply built this iron turtle.

"There's a hole on top that can be flipped open, and you can even make a few more holes so soldiers can attack."

Lin Yi said, "If possible, we can also put a catapult or something on it. Wouldn't it be able to move and hit farther at the same time?"

Even if Prince Qing lacked imagination, he could already imagine how destructive this thing was!

This thing may even change the battlefield. The cavalry of the future will not need horses!
