Chapter 514: [Pigeon]

Li Chengqian nodded.

Li Xiaogong continued: "Therefore, the problem is that the military newspaper is too slow. If we can know the battle situation on the front line as quickly as possible, then we can make better arrangements!"

Hearing him say this, Li Chengqian looked at his Wangcai and understood why he called him and brought Wangcai.

"That's right, Your Highness, it was after I saw this pigeon in Cheng's Mansion that I realized that this was your pigeon for Cheng Zhijie, and... hehehe..." Li Xiaogong did not say the following words, but shamelessly let out three laughs.

Li Chengqian whitened his eyes.

He continued, "If you can use Your Highness's pigeon to the front line, then you can let the pigeons come over with the military newspaper. The pigeons keep flying to Chang'an, and you can bring the military newspaper faster than entering the force!"

Old Li above nodded, indicating that he also meant this.

Li Xiaogong added, saying, "There is also our spy business. If we can send messages back with a carrier pigeon, we don't need to go in and connect, which is safer and faster."

Hearing them say this, Li Chengqian knew that the carrier pigeon had been discovered by them for strategic use, so he naturally would not say that he was unwilling to use it for them.

However, recently the pigeons are hatching eggs, and the new generation of faithful pigeons have not yet come out. How can I use this for them?

"Father, uncle, serving the national security of the Tang Dynasty is naturally what Cheng Qian is willing to do. However, I, the wealthy man, can only fly from the East Palace to Chengfu, and have not yet conducted long-range flights. The new generation of pigeons have not yet hatched in the eggs, so I am afraid they cannot be put into use now. At least we have to wait until next year!" Li Chengqian told the situation of his pigeon.

Lao Li and Li Xiaogong looked at each other, and Lao Li asked, "Are you saying that after you released a batch of pigeons, only Wangcai, came back, and all the others returned to Maling?"

Li Chengqian blinked his eyes twice and nodded and said yes.

The eyes of Old Li and Li Xiaogong lit up. Li Xiaogong said, "Then your highness said that even the pigeons who were going back to Xiamaling, they all knew the way back to Xiamaling. If they were taken to other farther places, they might come back?"

Hearing him say this, Li Chengqian also discovered the truth.

I have always only considered the Eastern Palace. So if I go to send a military newspaper, as long as I can fly back to Maling, what is the difference between flying back to Chang'an?

"Uncle wants to requisition the pigeons from Xiamaling immediately?" Li Chengqian clapped his hands and responded, "If the pigeons report the army to Xiamaling and then transfer it to the palace, that would be feasible. However, the pigeons still need training. They must first catch the place closer to Xiamaling to see if they can fly back. Then, after a while, they will send the pigeons to a farther place and then release them back. As long as they can successfully come back, they will be good pigeons."

Li Chengqian thought of something and said: "If you want to send the pigeons to Songzhou, then follow this road directly and take them far away every time, then the pigeons should be able to form their own route in the future."

"Route?" asked the two old people.

"Oh, it's the flight route." Li Chengqian explained.

Both old people thought this method was feasible, so they nodded and agreed.

Old Li looked at Li Xiaogong and asked, "This matter is presided over by Xiaogong, how about it?"

He is making arrangements for entry.

Li Xiaogong quickly bowed and refused, "Your Highness, I have been in charge of the spy academy recently, and I can't even be busy. The spy academy is about to be renewed. I haven't made all the new concepts proposed by the Crown Prince yet. I really don't have the ability to preside over another military communication system. Your Majesty should find other people who can come in to preside over it. As long as your Majesty can use the military pigeons for my spy academy, I will be satisfied!"

When Lao Li heard what he said, he no longer forced himself, and then frowned and thought about the right choice.

Li Chengqian felt that Lao Li's words should be insincere.

Li Xiaogong is now holding the Spy Academy of the Tang Dynasty. This is the first regular spy. Even if Li Xiaogong still has the strength, it is impossible for him to preside over a dove army with the same heavyweight military intelligence system. Li Xiaogong, who has mastered the two major businesses, has too much power, which will make Old Li suspicious. Instead of doubting, it is better not to give it. So he obviously won't give it, but he still has to ask him if he wants it, really.

Of course, if Old Li really wants Li Xiaogong to take care of pigeons, then Old Li wants Li Xiaogong to get off the position of the spy academy.

One is to take care of pigeons and the other is to take care of it. Of course, Li Xiaogong still thinks it is better to take care of it.

Since Uncle Li doesn't care about pigeons, Li Chengqian wants to get in.

This pigeon was his idea, so it shouldn't be too much to insert it!

What he thought of was Qin Huaidao. If this kid doesn't make a career, how could he be worthy of the eldest girl?

"Father, since you are not selected, why don't you listen to your son's recommendation? Qin Huai said, I think this kid is steady and reliable in doing things. Father, please let him go down the horse and manage the pigeons!" Li Chengqian said.

"Qin Huaidao?" Hearing this name, Lao Li and Li Xiaogong were about to think for a while.

It was Li Xiaogong who remembered it first and said, "It's Qin Shubao's grandson."

"That's right." Li Chengqian responded.

Old Li said: "You are really a fool. I have heard of that boy. He is a thick child, but he is only fourteen years old and has not even gotten married. Where can I say he is steady? Can a fourteen-year-old child manage a military newspaper system that concerns national affairs?"

Li Xiaogong agreed with Lao Li: "If this information is a mistake, it will cause the failure of a war, the losses of a city, the survival of tens of thousands or even an army, and even the safety of the country. Therefore, after the pigeon is established in the future, it will still require a heavyweight and steady enclosure to be managed. More importantly, it must be the veteran qualification of the military!"

He sighed: "This is a lifeline of the military, and I don't feel at ease when I hand it over to other people."

Lao Li nodded in approval.

It seems that they take this pigeon too seriously.

Next, the two old people whispered and discussed which old people to guard the pigeons.

Li Chengqian heard from them the names of Li Jing, Yuchi, and more veterans, among which even Cheng Lao Huo was nominated. However, he was quickly rejected and went to mourn for filial piety and could not be disturbed.

Finally, they fell on an old man named Duan Zhixuan.

Who is Duan Zhixuan?

Li Chengqian was very curious.
