It's finally done. Zhang Fan is now relieved.

Merely. This matter is for Zhang Fan. It's good to get it done. Even if it can't be done. He still had another way to make the war on that island more intense. But now this approach. For Zhang Fan. and can achieve their own goals. You can also make some money. Naturally, it's the best.

The reason why he felt so relaxed. Actually, it's because of the Divine Decree.

Although said. Zhu Yijun has already stamped a jade seal. And the effective decree prepared in the Ouchi was handed over to Zhang Fan. But Zhang Fan was still a little worried. It's not that he's worried that once the contents of this decree are leaked, people will speak ill of him behind his back. It's just that there will definitely be some impact when the time comes. What he didn't want to be an impact on.

But Zhang Fan finally decided to do so. But even he had made up his mind in his heart. When he took this holy decree to see Yang Bo. There is still some apprehension in my heart. Yang Bo is not a three-year-old child. It's not easy to fool. Zhang Fan is naturally able to understand. As long as Yang Bo saw this holy decree. With a little speculation, you can figure out the connection. Zhang Fan is worried that Yang Bo will not disagree with this.

But in Zhang Fan's opinion. Yang Bo should agree. After all, Yang Bo is also a man who knows righteousness. The one who puts the national court at the forefront. And. Most importantly. Yang Bo is this person. Except for his kind of purpose. Any means can make a difference. What's more. He's for this kind of thing. It's kind of a way to describe it as "flaws must be reported". For the foreigners. As long as they dare to invade the frontiers of the Ming Dynasty. Yang Bo felt that he would not give up.

So. When Zhang Fan took the holy decree and went to Yang Bo's mansion. Although I was a little apprehensive in my heart. But in his opinion. The chances of this happening are much greater.

Really. As Zhang Fan expected.

After Yang Bo received the holy decree. It's just a little thought about it, and it looks like a sudden realization. Zhang Fan will ask for so many muskets. Obviously not for the army of the Ming Dynasty. The muskets that should have been in the Ming army are all equipped. And for Zhang Fan. Although Yang Bo is not too long. But there is also some understanding. Naturally, it was impossible for Zhang Fan to blatantly hand over these guns to any foreign clan. Or those who plan to rebel and rebel within the Ming Dynasty. Not to mention even if it was given to them. There were no gunpowder projectiles. These muskets are also no different from wooden sticks.

Besides. No matter where Zhang Fan's holy decree came from. must have passed through the Empress Dowager Li. Or Zhu Yijun's consent. Since the emperor or the queen mother has already agreed. Then he Yang Bo has nothing to say. Empress Dowager Li is a woman again. Zhu Yijun is a child again. After all, they are the royal family of the Ming Dynasty. It is absolutely impossible for them to watch others endanger themselves with their own things.

And now. The only thing that can need these things. It's only Fuso. The Europeans had their own muskets. Naturally, there is no need to buy from the Ming Dynasty, which is thousands of miles away. And the Ming Dynasty also had business dealings with Fusang before. Whether it was recognized by the imperial court. is still the "five-peak shipowner" of the year. The smuggling of the pirate king Wang Zhi. In short, Yang Bo understands this.

And these come to mind. What is Zhang Fan going to do? Yang Bo naturally had a number in his heart. Although this method seems shameless. Absolutely not in line with the teachings of the saints. But for Yang Bolai. One is close to Daming. And there was a lot of war. The exiles will also continue to harass the country of the Ming Sea Frontier. Indeed, this is how they need to be treated.

So. Yang Bo, who has thought it through. didn't ask Zhang Fan anything. Instead, he asked, "Master Zhang." Why is it so? ”

"What did Lord Yang say?" Zhang Fan was a little confused about what Yang Bo said suddenly.

"I mean. Why are there so many guns. Yang Bo spoke. The decree was unfurled. Said. "In total, the Ministry of Industry has made 3,000 of them. Although the territory of Fusang is not as wide and vast as my Ming Dynasty. However, it is said that there are many people there. And now their whole country is in a scuffle. These three thousand muskets. Isn't there too little. ”

"Uh......" Zhang Fan heard Yang Bo say. Suddenly the time was speechless. The cold sweat was all left. Originally. Zhang Fan was worried that Yang Bo would not agree. Or even if Yang Bo agreed. will also preach to him. Nowadays, however. Yang Bo not only did not blame Zhang Fan for anything. He also said that this thing was given too little. This really made Zhang Fan feel a little embarrassed.

"This ...... There's a reason for that, too. It took Zhang Fan a long time to calm down those strange thoughts in his heart. looked at Yang Bo and said. "That's what Lord Yang said. I've thought about it too. ”

"Oh." Yang Bo heard Zhang Fan say this. I couldn't help but ask curiously. "Now that you've thought of it. Why is it that he has changed his mind now? ”

"Lord Yang. I was ready for this. I also did some research on the situation in Fuso. Zhang Fan said. There are quite a few people there, though. But there are now daimyo melees. Truly able to go to war. None of them are trained soldiers. Those people are the treasures of all forces. It's all for family care. Those who really go to the battlefield to fight. Most of them are farmers. And they're basically people who don't have enough to eat. Let's not talk about how their battle went. Just every battle. It can be considered tragic that both sides can produce more than 1,000 people each.

"And the musket thing. For employing people. It's not like those swords. Hold it in your hand. Even if you haven't trained. You can also pick it up and cut people. So. There are every force there. A person who is able to fight on the battlefield with a musket. There are not a few. We don't have many guns, though. But for them. But it's enough. ”

Yang Bo heard Zhang Fan say this. I couldn't help but pause on my face. The two armies fought. There were only 2,000 men against each other. It can be called a tragic battle. This is for anyone who has been influenced by the questioning and questioning of the Celestial Empire for thousands of years. It's all an unthinkable thing.

"And ......," Zhang Fan continued. Muskets and such things. Extremely lethal. Especially in the eyes of those Fuso people. Muskets are very important. So even if they buy. But they are also willing to spend a lot of money. I am a junior in front of Lord Yang. There is no need to hide it from Lord Yang. These guns were made by the Ministry of Works. The cost is only ten taels of silver. Even if you add in the prices that our people have shipped over. At most, it's only twelve or two. But nowadays. A musket can be sold for five taels of gold in Fusang.

"Although said. Fuso has always been rich in gold. But there has been a war there for more than a hundred years. There is a lot of attrition on all sides. People who are able to come up with so much money to buy at once. It's really not much. Besides. We can't just cut the price. Even if we are willing to go down. You have to pretend to be heartbroken. And the price can't be let out too much. Otherwise. The so-called troubled times produce talented people. It's not all stupid on Fuso Island. It's not good for them to see something. ”

"Hmm." listened to Zhang Fan's explanation. Yang Bo pondered. Also nodded. Agree.

"It's just ......" Zhang Fan suddenly. Some hesitated. "I've been thinking about a question. And it has always made me feel uneasy. ”

"What's the problem?" See Zhang Fan like this. Yang Bo asked.

"Lord Yang knows." Zhang Fan said. "There has been war on Fuso Island for more than 100 years. Countless stragglers have nowhere to go because they have lost their monarchs. Come to my Daming Sea Frontier to plunder the people. I'm afraid that the time will come. Will there be a Japanese robber who will beat our people with the guns we have sold? If that happens. Zhang Fan is a capital crime. ”

"Huh." Heard Zhang Fan say this. Yang Bo laughed instead.

Looking at Yang Bo. Zhang Fan wondered: "Lord Yang." Why laugh. ”

"Nope." Yang Bo said with a smile. "I'm laughing at Lord Zhang. In vain, you are the governor of the Jinyi Guard. But they don't even know these things. ”

"What's the matter?" Zhang Fan heard Yang Bo say this. I wondered even more.

"No wonder." Yang Bo said. "These things. You Jinyi guards don't care. ”

"Please also ask Lord Yang to solve the confusion in Zhang Fan's heart." Zhang Fan humbly asked Yang Bo for advice.

"Those would-be robbers. It has harassed our Daming Sea for more than 100 years. Of course, it is hateful. Yang Bo said. But. Except last year. The incident that Lord Zhang encountered in Jiangnan. After all, the other party came from the men and horses under the command of the great general of Fusang. With muskets and iron cannons. Lord Zhang has never seen any Japanese invaders with firearms. ”

Zhang Fan heard Yang Bo say this. Immediately I thought about it. Really. Things are really as Yang Bo said. The pirates never used firearms. Even the previous dossier. Zhang Fan didn't look through them one by one. But what he's seen. None of them have been discovered.

This is actually the Qi family's army fighting against the Japanese invaders. Especially after becoming famous. With the support of the imperial court, the Qi family army was able to kill the Japanese Quartet. The Qi family army held weapons in his hands that were sharper than those primitive swords of the Japanese Emperor.

"Why is that?" Zhang Fan asked.

"The people of Fuso. Although it is known the power of the musket. Yang Bo said. But saltpeter and the like are not abundant there. There wasn't much gunpowder either. So even if it's a war. There is not much to be distributed for each person. And those prisoners of war who lost the battle. It is also necessary to hand in all the gunpowder projectiles in your hands before they can be released to fend for themselves. Over there. The folk can't find any gunpowder. ”

"I see." Heard Yang Bo say this. Zhang Fan can be regarded as completely relieved at this moment.
