Chapter 1071: Stepping on each other
What's good for Li Qian?
Does this need to be asked?
Several of Zhao Xiao's staff felt that Zhao Xiao's fire came inexplicably, and the words were inexplicable, I don't know where Zhao Xiao was angry, and no one was good at talking for a while, you quietly glanced at me, I quietly glanced at you, and the study suddenly quietly dropped a needle.
Zhao Xiao came back to his senses.
He sighed lightly and chuckled bitterly.
He's angry, isn't he?
He hadn't done such a thing for many years, but he didn't expect to be broken by Li Qian!
However, Li Qian's side couldn't let him develop like this, and he had to find a way to trap him in the north and not move, and think less about it.
Zhao Xiao sat down with a few staff members to discuss.
Li Qian's side received a letter from Zhao Xi after a while.
He did not inform the court of the war with Qinggeltai in advance, but after the war started, he asked the bureaucrats to write a note and send it to the General Administration Department, which was regarded as a greeting to the imperial court.
If the court believes it or not, he doesn't care.
So when he first received Zhao Xi's book, he thought that Zhao Xi cared about the outcome of the war, but who knew that he was warning him not to build a naval army.
He didn't have to think about it to know that this must be what Zhao Xiao meant.
Li Qian asked Xie Yuanxi to come over, handed Zhao Xi's secret fold to Xie Yuanxi, and said: "Find an old one, give the emperor a fold, and say in a humble tone, saying that we are not ready to build a navy, but we just want to try the performance of the ship we build." Finally, I told the emperor that we were preparing to build him a dragon boat so that he could go to the river in the summer, but at present, there is a shortage of manpower, and the craftsmanship of the dragon boat is more complicated than other boats, so I am afraid that the emperor will have to wait a little longer. ”
lest Zhao Xiao be crooked in front of Zhao Xi, Zhao Xi passed on a secret decree again, saying something similar to "Shipbuilding is time-consuming, laborious and labor-intensive, so it is better to ask the Jinghai Marquis Mansion to help build it".
Xie Yuanxi looked at the secret decree at a glance, and his brows furrowed tightly.
If Li Qian was someone who would have given up if someone else said a few words, how could he be where he is today?
But since Li Qian said that he would not build a naval army, then he would definitely not build a naval division on the surface, so in what name would the people they recruited a few days ago be placed, where would they be placed, and how would the usual drills be carried out...... After all, Xie Yuanxi is just a staff member, and when it comes to war, he is a little blind.
He said, "So what are we going to do?"
"Discuss with Ma Shengyu. Li Qian said lightly.
Xie Yuanxi hesitated: "A few days ago, Ma Shengyu proposed to train troops in Poyang Lake, but that was the place south of the Yangtze River......"
"There is no need to recruit soldiers," Li Qian said: "We are grabbing meat to eat at Zhao Xiao's mouth, he must be unwilling." As for where to train the troops and who is responsible, you will slowly look for people, take your time, we will probably have to fight with the Tartars in the next or two years, and we will not have the energy to take care of the affairs of Tianjin Wei for the time being. Since Ma Shengyu thinks that he can lead the naval army, let him go. If he doesn't do well, it's not too late to replace him. ”
Although Ma Shengyu won more battles and lost less, he was not talented among the generals under Li Qian, and he was able to win battles, most of which was because he knew people and made good use of them, so this time he fought Tartars, and it would not have much impact without him.
It seems that Li Qian is going to hand over the water army to Ma Shengyu.
Xie Yuanxi pondered in his heart, and Li Qian suddenly said of Jiang Xianlai: "Liu Dongyue beside the county lord, you have also been friends with him for many years, and he is also a talent." You might as well meet him. Since Zhao Xiao was afraid that we would form a naval army, and he sued us in the emperor, we couldn't just swallow our anger. You must know that there are few so-called third-grade and second-grade members in the court who do not praise the high and the low, if we forget it like this, they will only use us as soft persimmons, and we don't count on them now for military salaries. We can't just leave it at that!
"You go and ask Liu Dongyue to help.
"Let him help you sell the ship to Fujian.
"No matter how much they sell for the Marquis of Jing'an, we are a little cheaper than him. ”
Xie Yuanxi felt that it was inappropriate, and said: "If we sell at a loss, then Zhao Xiao gritted his teeth and bought cheap ships directly from us and sold them to those who did overseas trade in Liangguang and Fujian?
"Don't be afraid!" Li Qian said with a smile, "Jinghaihou, I know, those shipbuilding masters are paid regardless of the off-season or the peak season, whether they have work or not, but those who do small jobs are piecework." There are only so many people who want to buy boats, and we will sell as many ships as he wants to buy us, and when the craftsmen on my side have something to do, they will be idle there, and those masters will say that those who do small jobs will disperse in two or three months at most.
"That's a skilled job.
"It's not so easy to recruit these people when they disperse.
"If Zhao Xiao dares to do this, he will have to suffer!"
Xie Yuanxi thought about it, and this is really the truth.
He couldn't help laughing and said, "Lord Wang, you are really good at this abacus!"
Li Qian pursed the corners of his lips and said disdainfully: "Dealing with people like Zhao Xiao, you can't have more eyes!"
Didn't Zhao Xiao defeat Jin Xiao and others because of his tricks, and almost married Jiang Xian?
He smiled and said, "Has the Empress Dowager's anger disappeared a little?"
He didn't tell Jiang Xian, the Empress Dowager and others about the war, he was afraid that they would be worried, and he didn't want them to be afraid. The Empress Dowager thought that he was just an ordinary patrolman, and because she didn't stay at home to celebrate Brother Shen'er's birthday, she also asked Meng Fangling to write a letter to accuse him, saying that he didn't feel sorry for Brother Shen.
Sometimes Li Qian can't help but feel that he and Jiang Xian's Brother Shen are really obedient, and they are not spoiled like this.
Xie Yuanxi also knows. Hearing this, he couldn't help but laugh and said: "The Empress Dowager will throw it away." I heard the news from Aji, saying that after Brother Shen'er made a birthday, the Empress Dowager and others went to Xiaotangshan with the county lord. He said he would stay until early spring next year and not come back. also left Brother Xu and Brother Cheng to celebrate the New Year in the capital. Mrs. He disagreed, but the lord felt good, not only agreed to the county lord's request, but also sent people to send a lot of things to the capital. The county lord was also very polite and sent the corresponding return gift to the master. ”
For Li Qian, these are small things.
What he was most concerned about now was whether Qinggeltai would chase him into the depths of the grassland.
Because of the two major battles, Qinggeltai clashed with Li Qian, and was defeated by Li Qian, and Qinggeltai's reputation in the Twelve Tartar Leagues was far less than before. This battle was also fought hard, which made Li Qian wonder if something had happened to the Twelve Leagues? Qinggeltai was not fully prepared this time, but he still came to attack Xuancheng and Datong.
Li Qian thought about it and asked Xie Yuanxi to inquire about the situation on the Tartar side.
Xie Yuanxi went back and wrote a letter to Jiang Xian to borrow someone.
He felt that Li Qian's idea of grabbing business with the Marquis of Jinghai was very good.
