1313. Three-way investigation
The military division of Baima Qiang Town actually had a grenadier canister, and he also found it unimaginable.
Because the manufacturing process of grenadiers and dragon guns in the Great Song Dynasty is all in the hands of the Ministry of Military Science, and even the craftsmen of the Ministry of Military Science and Technology and the Ministry of Military Industry only have their own expertise, it is impossible to know the complete manufacturing process. It can be said that in the entire territory of the Great Song Dynasty, it is possible to know the complete manufacturing process of grenadiers and other materials, except for Zhao Dongting, there are only a few senior members of the Ministry of Military Science and the Ministry of Military Industry.
And the loyalty of these senior officers is undoubted, and with the spies of the military intelligence department watching them, there should be no possibility of leaking the manufacturing process of grenadiers and other materials.
So where did the grenadiers of the White Horse Qiang Town Military Division come from?
Could it be that it was spread from various military districts?
Zhao Dongting's brows furrowed deeper and deeper, but he couldn't help but think, the major military regions should not have this kind of courage, right?
And even if they have this kind of guts, how did they quietly send the military arms to the military division of Baimaqiang Town?
After a moment of silence, Zhao Dongting looked at Zhongsun Guge, turned his head and said to Li Goudan: "Goudan, go to the military aircraft province and announce the order of the deputy military aircraft of the Soviet Union." ”
Su Liuyi is in Changsha, and it can be said that he is the logistics chief of the military aircraft province. Grain, grass, ordnance, salaries, and other materials of all military regions had to pass through his hands and be distributed by him.
If the arms in Baimaqiang Town were really transported by the Great Song Military Region, then Su Liuyi should be able to detect it somewhat.
After Li Goudan walked out of the imperial study, Zhao Dongting said to Zhongsun Guge again: "Lord Zhongsun, don't worry, I will definitely give an explanation to Xixia and the empress about this matter." ”
There was also a faint anger in his eyes.
Zhongsun Guge heard Zhao Dongting say this, and his face finally softened a little.
Anyway, Zhao Dongting at least gave him a guarantee.
After that, the two of them were silent in the imperial study.
About two quarters of an hour later, Su Liuyi hurried from the Yamen of the Military Machinery Province to the imperial study. Of course, he was a little surprised by Zhao Dongting's summons.
"The Emperor's ......"
As soon as he entered the door, Su Liuyi saluted Zhao Dongting, and then looked at Zhao Dongting.
Zhao Dongting said directly: "Deputy Military Commander of the Soviet Union, I will immediately send a message to the major military regions with flying pigeons, and the logistics department will strictly audit the number of grenadiers, dragon guns and other objects in each military region. At the same time, let the military inspection offices supervise by the side. I need to know as quickly as possible how many arms reserves there are in each of the major military districts! ”
Seeing Zhao Dongting's solemn expression, Su Liu Yi couldn't help but be even more surprised, and couldn't help asking, "Your Majesty, what happened?" ”
Zhao Dongting snorted softly: "The military division of Baima Qiang Town also has a lot of ......."
Before he could finish speaking, something suddenly occurred to him.
There is really no reason why these arms were transmitted to Western Xia by the major military regions.
Because it is impossible to conceal the flow of these arms, if the commanders of the major military regions dare to do this, are they not afraid of being punished?
I'm afraid no one is so stupid, right?
This possibility should be lower than the possibility of the Ministry of Military Science and Technology leaking out the manufacturing process.
Su Liuyi stopped abruptly when he saw that Zhao Dongting had finished speaking, and there was even more confusion in his eyes, but he didn't speak again.
Zhao Dongting thought about it again, and finally waved his hand, "You go check first!" ”
"The old minister obeys."
Su Liuyi didn't ask any more, just took the order.
Then he left the study.
Zhao Dongting looked at Li Goudan again and said, "Go and announce it to the head of the military intelligence department." ”
When he did these things, he didn't hide it from Zhongsun Guge, and let Zhongsun Guge watch from the side.
"Yes."
Li Goudan led the order out of the imperial study again.
After Zhao Dongting left, he was silent again. At this moment, his eyes flickered, but his face became more solemn.
Speaking of Xuan Xue, he remembered something Xuan Xue said to him before.
The Black Mountain Weifu Military Division had a secret transaction with a mysterious merchant in the territory of Xijing Road in the Yuan Dynasty.
So...... Could the arms in Baimaqiang Town flow in from the Yuan Dynasty?
Xijing Road borders the Montenegrin Weifu Military Division, and only the territory of the Western Xia and the Great Song Dynasty isolates it on the way, if this is the case, then the Montenegrin Weifu Military Division and the Yuan Dynasty can indeed hide from the world. And if the arms had to be secretly transported from the Weifu Military Division of Montenegro to the Military Division of Baimaqiang Town, it would be a simple matter.
Not to mention the use of those elaborate methods, it is difficult for anyone to find out that these arms are mixed with grain and grass to be transported.
Zhao Dongting pondered deeply.
Only...... Where did the Yuan Dynasty get these grenadiers and other things?
And if those arms were really provided by the Yuan Dynasty, it was enough to show that the Yuan Dynasty already had enough firearms. This could not have been circulated in the Great Song Military Region, but it could only be that the Yuan Dynasty had mastered the manufacturing process of grenadiers and other things.
This is what worries Zhao Dongting the most.
If the arms were provided by the Yuan Dynasty, then this matter would not only be between Great Xia and Western Xia.
The Yuan army was numerous and possessed firearms, which could once again pose a great threat to the Great Song Dynasty. The Central Plains will be a situation where two tigers will compete again.
"Weichen Xuanxue knocked to see the emperor."
Zhao Dongting was still pondering, and Xuan Xue had already rushed to the imperial study.
Zhao Dongting looked up at her, his expression was solemn, and said, "Manager Xuan, you go to check immediately, whether someone in the military department and the military industry department leaked the munition manufacturing map." ”
Xuan Xue's eyes immediately widened, "Your Majesty, has an arms manufacturing map been leaked?" ”
Zhao Dongting just shook his head, "I don't know yet." Otherwise, I wouldn't have let you check it. ”
Xuan Xuewen's face was also solemn, no more, and hurriedly walked towards the outside of the imperial study.
The munitions manufacturing process is the foundation of the hegemony of the Great Song Dynasty and the sharp blade of the Great Song Dynasty. Now that it's leaked out, everyone can know the seriousness of this matter.
This is a threat that can shake the hegemony of the Great Song Dynasty.
"Wait!"
Only Xuanxue had just walked to the door when she was stopped by Zhao Dongting again.
She turned around, "Does the emperor still have orders?" ”
Zhao Dongting wrinkled his brows and said, "If there is Xijing Road and the Black Mountain Weifu Military Region, you can also go and investigate...... Regardless of the cost, find out what exactly they are trading. ”
"Yes!"
Xuanxue nodded and walked towards the outside of the imperial study.
Zhao Dongting looked at Zhongsun Guge again and said, "Lord Zhongsun, let's wait for the news next, how about it?" ”
Zhongsun Guge naturally only nodded.
He can see it now, no matter whether those arms were passed out from the Great Song Dynasty or not, this Song Emperor should not know about it. Unless Zhao Dongting was acting just now.
And Zhao Dongting has already investigated the major military regions for this matter, and he has also investigated the military department and the military industry, what else can he say?
Could it be that you can't force Zhao Dongting to give him an answer now?
Zhongsun Guge obviously does not have such courage and confidence.
After all, if you really want to provoke Emperor Mao and Song, it will not be good for Western Xia. His grandson, Guge, could not afford that kind of guilt.
On this day, Su Liuyi and Xuanxue were in full swing.
After Zhongsun Guge returned to the Ambassador's Mansion, he immediately sent a letter back to Zhongxing Mansion, and wrote Zhao Dongting's reply and actions in the letter.
Only at the end of his heart, he also said that this matter did not seem to be done by the Song State, so Li Xiushu was more wary of the Yuan Dynasty.
There was a secret deal between the Black Mountain Weifu Military Division and Xijing Road, and he was already aware of it. I also have to wonder if the arms of the White Horse Qiang Town Military Division will flow in from the Yuan Dynasty.
Zhao Dongting returned to the dormitory in a rather solemn mood.
As soon as I entered the dormitory, I saw that all the women were in the courtyard. His eyes swept over Turandot, and he couldn't help but freeze.
So much so that he didn't respond even when the women greeted him.
Only then did he shake his head again and smile self-deprecatingly.
Although Turandot went back to the Yuan Dynasty, it should not be possible that she discovered the manufacturing process of grenadiers and other objects, and then sent them to the Yuan Dynasty.
Turandot is deep in the inner courtyard of the deep palace, and he has no intersection with the ministers of the Ministry of Military Science and Technology and the Ministry of Military Industry, how can he get the manufacturing process of grenadiers and other materials?
Moreover, Zhao Dongting still knew Turandot, and thought that Turandot would never do such a thing.
Whether Turandot's feelings for him are true or not, he can still feel it.
Fast forward a few days.
The territory of Western Xia was still calm. There was no further confrontation between the two armies.
Li Xiushu also kept it a secret after receiving Zhongsun Guge's letter, and did not tell anyone the contents of the letter. It's just that the mood is much more relaxed.
Perhaps, in her heart, as long as the arms of the White Horse Qiang Town Military Division were not provided by Zhao Dongting, it would be more important than anything else, right?
I want to talk about "The Reborn Lao Tzu is the Emperor" with more like-minded people, and pay attention to "excellent reading literature" on WeChat, talk about life, and find confidants~
