Chapter 791: The Eastern Tang Empire's Revenge Is Coming (Two in One)

"Yes!"

The corpse replied respectfully, then stepped back to prepare for the artillery test.

Xu Ding saw that he was leaving, and shouted: "Wait, I went back to Weiyuan Island this time and brought back some finished firearms. ”

Corpse Hao was overjoyed when he heard this, and there was a finished product, so it was much easier to study and learn.

You can learn from it, so you don't have to worry about the tiredness of working behind closed doors.

The test of artillery is also relatively cumbersome.

The first is to measure the firing range, the second is the power, and the third is whether the quality and design of the artillery itself are reasonable.

And it has the greatest risk factor.

Because once the chamber is blown up, it may really cause death and injury, and it is widespread.

"Boom ......"

One cannon kept being tested, and suddenly one of them blew up after only two tests.

Others suffered minor injuries as a result.

However, the corpse Hao and the others were not intimidated by the difficulties, and the wounded were carried down for treatment.

The others continued to wipe the guns.

It was until the evening, when the sunset was red all over the sky, and the sound of the cannons stopped.

Most of the cannons were damaged by blowing or cracking.

Various detailed parameters are also statistically analyzed.

And Xu Ding and Huang Chengyan couldn't calm down for a long time.

The power of the artillery became even more apparent, and the test range was blown to pieces.

It is announcing that a new era is coming.

New changes are emerging.

"Whether Bokang has this thing or not to attack the city in the future is a matter of an instant, and in a strong city, in a majestic and majestic level, it can't withstand its blow." Huang Chengyan suddenly thought of what Xu Ding said to him before he went to Pingzhou last year.

It has only been a few months, and the power of firearms has been fully revealed.

And it's unstoppable.

No wonder Xu Ding was so nervous when he knew about Pingzhou, so he was arranging the future.

"Father-in-law, it's true, this is just a pediatric, firearms have developed to a certain point, and a single shell may directly raze the entire Weiyuan Island to the ground." Xu Ding knew that when the devil released gunpowder, it would lose the original taste of war more and more.

Destroy an island with a single bomb, and destroy a place the size of a county.

Huang Chengyan began to dare not assume it.

It's horrible.

The scalp is a little numb.

couldn't help but worry: "Bokang, this thing must be firmly controlled, and it must not fall into the hands of enemies and people who have no evil thoughts, otherwise the whole world will be doomed."

"My father-in-law has a foresight and must have written it down." Xu Ding nodded slightly, and then replied:

"I won't use it casually until I have to, and this thing can't be stopped by choking on food, because we never know when the enemy will master it. With a sword in hand, you can protect yourself and survive. ”

While the two were chatting seriously, Corpse Hao came over with a record file book and reported the results to Xu Ding.

Xu Ding took the archive and looked at it, thought about it for a while, and then told some of his opinions and opinions to Zhu Hao, so that he could have a clear direction for improvement and research.

"Okay, let's stop here today, artillery is the same as guns, it still needs to be studied and improved, don't put it into production for the time being, you have also worked hard, give everyone three days off, take a good rest, everyone is receiving some rewards, and you have to combine work and rest." Xu Ding looked at the sky and instructed.

"It's the Great General!"

Leaving from the Instrument Department, Xu Ding returned to his place of residence and let Mao Jue enter the house at night.

The two opened the hot pot and chatted while eating.

Xu Ding sandwiched a piece of meat and stirred some sauce into his mouth, chewed it beautifully, and then put it into his stomach.

Then he put down his chopsticks, poured a glass of wine for the two and said, "Xiaoxian, how much brass do we have in reserve?" ”

Mao Jue thought about it, and then reported to Xu Ding.

Because it has been being developed, the current copper reserves can be said to be astronomical.

The big ships in the South China Sea are constantly hauling, and all parts of the jurisdiction are also developing and refining, and the richness is jaw-dropping.

Xu Ding estimated and ordered: "In this way, I will prepare a large number of minted copper coins, and I will bring back the samples, and you will arrange manpower and bring the machine to Pingzhou Chuanmen to set up a mint." ”

Mao Jue said: "Lord, do you want to mint the money of the Dragon Teng Continent?" ”

Mao Jue understands that Xu Ding has been emphasizing economic rationalization and economic regulation.

Therefore, even though Donglai has a lot of copper, it does not issue new coins indiscriminately, in order to stabilize the economy and currency.

Now I suddenly want to cast a large number of them, mostly because of the Dragon Teng Continent.

After all, Xu Ding is not a short-sighted person, and it is impossible to harm the big man.

"That's right, I am going to mint a large number of copper coins of the Great Zhou Kingdom, and I have reached an agreement with the emperor of the Great Zhou Kingdom, and I will do the monetary reform of the Great Zhou Kingdom, and I can intervene in the economic aspect.

At that time, I will let all the countries and regions in the east of the Longteng Continent use our money, and the bad money will drive out the good money, and the four and five places will cut off the right to seal and mint small money.

Swap copper for silver and gold in their hands. Xu Ding smiled slightly, this smile was a little meaningful.

Copper is worthless in his hands, and if he exchanges all the gold and silver in the Dragon Continent, he can implement a new gold and silver system, and at the same time establish a banking mechanism to carry out financial warfare to weaken countries.

Mao Jue's face was a little crying, put down his chopsticks and said: "Lord, am I going to learn something new, can I not be the only one, let Zhicai and them also study well." ”

The word further study was also invented by Xu Ding, and Mao Jue felt that everyone should suffer together.

Good things also have to learn to share.

It's best not to let go of Guo Jia's lazy.

"Haha, yes, everyone has to learn, no one can be left behind, the way to govern the country, if you don't understand the economy, you can't manage the country well." Xu Ding understood what Mao Jue meant, and instantly smiled.

Anyway, this group of guys is full of love between them, and they can pit one by one.

Next, Xu Ding talked with Mao Jue for a long time, and it was generally about the economy.

For example, banks were established to carry out swabing points in their own jurisdictions to facilitate trade among merchants, and at the same time, it was also convenient for the allocation and distribution of government money and grain at all levels.

When we have the experience and conditions, we will spread it across the country and further penetrate the Longteng Continent.

Economic warfare is a war without gunpowder, and it is even more cruel and ruthless than military warfare.

Xu Ding chatted for a long time this night, and Mao Jue also listened while making notes, so that he could take time to study and digest when he went back.

stayed on Weiyuan Island for half a month, during which he went back to Huaguo Mountain to visit his wife and children, listened to Guo Jia's report on the changes in the situation in Hanoi, as well as Cao Cao's latest developments, and added the undercover situation on the side of Yizhou Fazheng, in short, everything was relatively stable, there were no waves, and Xu Ding set off for Xiaoyao City again.

"My lord! The revenge of the Eastern Tang Kingdom came. As soon as Xu Ding returned to Xiaoyao City, Xu Shu hurriedly reported the situation of the recent Great Zhou.

Xu Ding asked, "How is the Eastern Tang Empire going to retaliate against the Great Zhou?" ”

"The Eastern Tang Dynasty unilaterally increased the annual tribute of the Great Zhou to the Eastern Tang Dynasty, which directly increased tenfold, and sent people to the northern border to dismantle the magic circle, eliminated the inscription patterns engraved in the border city, and took away the energy stone, and now the north of the Great Zhou has become an undefended place, and the Northern Barbarian tribes can go south to plunder at any time." Xu Shu said:

"It is estimated that the Eastern Tang Dynasty will not send troops to assist the Great Zhou to defend against the Northern Barbarians, let alone allow the mercenary organizations of the Eastern Tang Dynasty to accept the employment of the Great Zhou."

"It's ruthless! It is a big country, and it is lazy and hit. Xu Ding asked:

"Then the Eastern Tang Kingdom can make other requests, such as me and Princess Ji Xuan."

It stands to reason that the source of this matter is from him, because he made Li Yuanji unable to come to the stage and lost the face of the Eastern Tang Dynasty.

In essence, everything should be directed at oneself.

To exert pressure on the Great Zhou State, there should be a name.

Xu Shu shook his head and said: "My lord, the Eastern Tang Dynasty didn't mention you and Princess Ji Xuan, let alone the Ho Jing horse selection competition.

This matter is a great image tarnishing for them, so naturally they will not mention it more. ”

"This is also the case, no matter how you say that the Eastern Tang Kingdom is also a big country, it still wants to maintain its image, everyone knows this, and they don't dare to mention it." Xu Ding touched it, and he was also thinking deeply about the affairs of Da Zhou.

Originally, the Eastern Tang Dynasty and the Central Zhou Dynasty signed an agreement to jointly protect the Northern Barbarians.

Therefore, the northern border of the Middle Zhou Dynasty has always been under the responsibility of the Eastern Tang Dynasty, and a large defensive array has been built.

Every year in this aspect alone, Da Zhou has to pay a huge amount of money to Dongtang.

Now that the Eastern Tang Dynasty has suspended this matter, if the Northern Barbarians go south, it will be difficult for the Central Zhou to resist.

"In this way, we can only ask for assistance from Western Qin and establish a mutual defense agreement between Western Qin and Zhongzhou, but I am afraid that Western Qin will open its mouth." Xu Ding found that this matter was a little tricky.

In the final analysis, the national strength of the Middle Zhou Dynasty is too weak, and it has no military strength at all, and it is passive everywhere.

Xu Shu said: "In the past, because the Middle Zhou and the Eastern Tang Dynasty had a common defense array, the Northern Barbarians preferred to attack the powerful Western Qin, so although the Western Qin had no border disputes with the Eastern Tang Dynasty, they regarded it as an enemy, and the suspicion was the heaviest.

Now that the Eastern Tang Dynasty has withdrawn the central Zhou city's protective array, I am afraid that the Western Qin will also be happy to see it, and is willing to attack the Northern Barbarians in the Middle Zhou, and it is difficult to invite the Western Qin to spend money alone. ”

"Therefore, we need something enough to make Xi Qin excited, so that we can solve this big crisis and help Zhongzhou tide over the difficulties." Xu Ding muttered softly:

"What does Western Qin need, Western Qin is far west, most of the land is barren, the country is strong and the people are poor, the products are not rich, they lack food and money, what else do they lack?"

After understanding it in the past few months, Xu Ding knew that Xiqin's demand for grain had always been strong, so he had been relying on the turnover of grain from the middle and Zhou weeks and obtaining huge sums of money to help Xiqin, which had huge military expenditures, solve practical problems.

However, neither of these two can play a decisive role, but can only be used as an introduction.

"Lord, I came up with a solution, but this method is not good for Zhongzhou, and it is extremely difficult to operate." Xu Shu suddenly thought of an idea, but he wasn't quite sure.

Xu Ding asked, "Tell me about it!" ”

"Lord, since Dongtang wants to make Zhongzhou succumb and take revenge on Zhongzhou, if not, push the boat down the river, let Zhongzhou abandon the capital, and directly break the net, so that everyone will not have a good life, I don't believe that Dongtang can arrange the formation on all their cities, I don't believe that their energy pillar is endless."

Xu Ding raised his eyebrows slightly.

Then he took out a map of the eastern region.

After looking at it for a long time, Xu Ding spit out a breath of turbidity and said: "Your plan of hurting yourself by 800 and injuring the enemy by 1,000 is not impossible, so that the world will follow together."

The difficulty lies in how to control the degree of the Beiban's southward push, and see if the Beiban is willing to go according to our rhythm and plan. ”

Giving up the defense and directly letting the Northern Barbarians go south, leading the Western Qin and Eastern Tang Dynasty and the Southern Ming to directly fight with the Northern Barbarians, is indeed a bad move.

However, the northern barbarians were accustomed to nomadic living and moving on the steppe.

Even if they capture the Middle Zhou, they may not stay to fight a long-term war of attrition with the three major powers.

Moreover, without Hojing in the middle of the week, its economic status was lost.

The trade routes between the three major countries will change, and the hub economic advantage of the middle and Zhou will be gone.

Of course, after giving up Haojing, Zhongzhou could take the opportunity to move south to Xiaoyao City and other places, and then use the opportunity to deal with the Northern Barbarians to gather the power of each city, disintegrate the city lords of each city, and have a nirvana rebirth.

"Forget it, don't use this trick for the time being, it's a helpless choice, and the sequelae are too big, and the harm outweighs the benefits." Xu Ding shook his head and denied this plan, it was not him who was in charge of the Great Zhou, but Ji Beji, and the wise and wise King Ji Beming, and he couldn't get him to give orders, so Xu Ding said:

"However, this can be used to negotiate with the Southern Ming and the Western Qin, and even to engage in a diplomatic contest with the Eastern Tang."

Xu Shu said: "According to the meaning of the lord, we will spread the rumor that Zhongzhou wants to abandon the capital now, so that everyone will be nervous first." ”

The sooner this news spreads, the better.

On that day, Xu Ding rested for a day in Xiaoyao City, and then rushed to Haojing with a cavalry team.

Xu Shu sent people to various cities to spread rumors.

All of a sudden, the southern cities of the Central Zhou were terrified.

The Ji clan wanted to abandon the capital and move to Xiaoyao City, but the Ji clan left, who helped them resist the northern barbarians on the front line.

What if the North Barbarians killed them.

The lords of the cities were worried for a while, and the people were also afraid, so they wrote letters one after another, asking the cities and cities to send reinforcements to support Hojing and support the Ji clan to hold Hojing.

The city lords had no choice but to send private troops to Hojing.

After all, the Ji clan is still their monarch on the surface, and the middle week is everyone's middle week.

The Ji family is over, and everyone is finished.

The panic in the south soon spread to the west and south of the Central Week.

These two areas are also quickly catching up with the pace of the south, and they dare not be sloppy.

At the same time, their nervous state also spread to the Southern Ming and Western Qin.

The two countries also quickly convened a court meeting to discuss the aftermath of the withdrawal of the Eastern Tang Kingdom.

And in the pickaxe capital, Ji Beji also recruited hundreds of civil and military officials, as well as big horses, and two horses came back to hold a court meeting.

In the face of the demands of the Eastern Tang Kingdom, Ji Beji and his ministers were also as anxious as ants on a hot pot, and they discussed for seven days without results.

Even Ji Beming, who has always been called King Xian, did not speak.

"Listed as Aiqing, can we negotiate a way to deal with this matter?" Ji Bei asked the people below with a sad brow.

There was no answer.

When it was the big horse who stood up and said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that there must be some misunderstanding between us and the Eastern Tang Dynasty, so it is better to agree to the matter of the New Year's Coin first, and send a highly respected person to the Eastern Tang Dynasty to ask them not to withdraw from the battle, and we can give more money." ”

At the moment, there are ministers who stand up and support it.

However, the second horse snorted coldly and said: "Your Majesty, I don't think this is good, I promised the Eastern Tang Kingdom ten times the age of the coin, what do the Western Qin and Nanming think, whether their age coin should be raised."

And giving money may not necessarily solve the problem, the minister thinks that the Eastern Tang Kingdom is revenge, we should find the root cause, we should let the lord of the free city ask the Eastern Tang Kingdom for guilt, and at the same time send the third princess over, in order to calm the anger of the Eastern Tang Kingdom. ”

At the moment, there are also ministers who have expressed their support.

As long as such a thing can be solved, the border of the Middle and Zhou Dynasty can be safe, and the Eastern Tang Dynasty will be stabilized, don't have a war, no matter whether he gives money or gives people, they are 10,000 willing, anyway, it is not them who pay, they who give people.

Ji Beji didn't expect the two horses to mention such opinions, especially the two horses.

Not only did he want the lord of Xiaoyao City to bear the guilt of Jing Ding, but he also wanted to marry his third daughter to Li Yuanji.

What is the contest in front of you?

Where is the face of his Ji family.

How to explain to the people of the Middle Zhou Dynasty.

Ji Beji hesitated and was a little scared, so his eyes fell on Ji Beming.

It has always been difficult for the virtuous king to make a move.

Seeing the emperor's eyes asking for help, Ji Beiming thought about it and stepped forward, and was just about to finish speaking, when a sneer sounded outside the hall:

"Let Ben Ma see who wants to send Lao Tzu's wife to the Eastern Tang Dynasty, and asked me if I have the sword in my hand."
