Liu Yong saw the complete plan on the drawings and couldn't help but applaud. He immediately ordered the start of building prototypes, and as soon as the test shot was successful, mass production would be carried out immediately.

Now the mass production of grenades has begun. Coupled with the new artillery, Liu Yong's army is going against the sky. But it's going to take time. Time is of the utmost importance to Liu Yong. He hoped that the Tatars would continue the truce.

The spies came to report that the court of the Tarslaves now had two voices. One is to immediately assemble the army of the entire country to attack Huahan. One is that now is not the time to attack.

And both opinions have solid supporters, the second of which is supported by the prime minister. It is also the opinion of the majority.

Those who hold this opinion believe that the current strength of the imperial court is not good, and to put it bluntly, there is no money. For example, the north of the river was occupied by the Chinese and Han dynasties today, and the financial revenue of the imperial court fell sharply. Money is needed to fight a war. And now the finances of the Dayang Imperial Court have reached a dangerous point.

If there is a war, the expenses for the daily operation of the imperial court will be stretched. Now it is not the past, it used to be nomado, tribal, and the military expenses for fighting can also rely on plunder. In fact, it is the act of banditry. And now, there is nowhere to perform this banditry.

All the places that should be attacked have been attacked, and there are no more countries for them to plunder.

This is the main problem. Their expedition to the west took time and cost a lot of money, but in the end it did not bring them any real benefits.

At present, the north of the Tianjiang River is not as rich as the south of the Tianjiang River. Basically, agriculture is still based on agriculture, but agriculture led by the Han people, because of the high agricultural tax, their production enthusiasm is not very high. Large tracts of land were left uncultivated.

The handicraft industry, which was already underdeveloped, was destroyed because of years of war. Knowing that the Tatar slaves did not reply for a few years. It is unrealistic to count on their taxes.

Dayang's prime minister Lunta said: "At present, our situation is not the problem of attacking Huahan, but the problem of solving the financial problems of the imperial court. ”

"According to what the prime minister said, did all the victories we fought before rely on money?" A general disagrees with the prime minister.

The stunned sat on the dragon chair and listened with a frown. He also knows that this is not the same as before, and that no one will fight for you without money.

"Then please go back and ask your subordinates, if the salary is insufficient, are they willing to fight?" Prime Minister Lunta asked rhetorically.

The general was immediately asked.

"What do we mean by the Prime Minister?" The Emperor asked, stunned.

"Back to the emperor, the minister thinks that the most important thing for us at the moment is to develop the economy." Prime Minister Lenta said.

Hahaha, the general laughed.

Prime Minister Lunta asked, "Why is the general laughing?" ”

The general said: "Prime Minister, that's what Dahua thought in the past. ”

Prime Minister Lunta said: "General, Dahua's policy is to emphasize literature over military force, and their army is weak not because of the economy, but because of their emperor's management of the army. ”

As a general fighting on the battlefield, he naturally does not understand these truths, especially the way of running the country.

Although, after the Tatar occupation of Dahua, they have not been able to lead the country on the right track. Of course, this is also due to the short time frame. They occupied the entire continent for only three years.

It is indeed not easy to govern such a large country. Moreover, whether they had experience or not, the Han people were not willing to cooperate, so they had to cross the river by feeling the stones.

But now, when the real challenge comes, they know whether a country is strong or not, not only to have a strong army, but also to have a strong economic system.

And this is exactly what the Tarslavs lacked. They were still extremely backward in their previous nomadic pastorals. From nomadic to sedentary sprawling nations, they have made a big leap forward.

Don't look at the governance of the country where the general does not move, it is also a matter of relief for Wenchen. Only Lunta, who has lived in Dahua for more than ten years and has studied many classics, still has a certain theoretical basis for governing the country.

At this time, the general listened to Prime Minister Lunta's words, and said in a sarcastic tone: "I don't understand the big truths you said, I only know how to go into battle and kill the enemy." Hum! ”

After hearing the general's words, Lenta just smiled, and then said, "General, may I ask if your army has sufficient weapons?" ”

"Not very sufficient." The general replied gruffly.

"Then your armor and military uniform, can you have enough?" Renta asked again.

"Isn't that easy? Just find some women to sew! The general puffed up his chest and said.

"Well, even if it's a weapon, you can ask a blacksmith to make it for you for free, and even if it's a soldier's uniform, you can find a woman to sew it for free. But I'm going to ask the general. Where does the iron come from? And where will the cloth for sewing soldiers come from? Renta asked unhurriedly.

"This ......" The general really didn't know where these things came from, and for a moment he was on his own. After thinking for a long time, he said: "Iron can be asked for by a blacksmith, and cloth can be woven by a woman." ”

After listening to the general's childish words, Renta couldn't help but laugh. Then some of the other ministers laughed.

The general was still not convinced, so he said, "What? What are you laughing at? Am I not right? ”

The crowd stopped laughing, but no one answered his question.

Then he was stunned and said, "Okay, General Tie, don't say it." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty." The general replied.

He was stunned and said, "Prime Minister, you go on." ”

Lenta said: "Your Majesty, this war is a matter of burning money, not to mention anything else, only this one, the soldiers and horses have not moved the grain and grass first, and we must have grain and grass if we want to fight." In recent years, the land in the north has become much barren, not to mention grain and grass, and even the food eaten by the royal family is stretched. I don't know that soldiers can fight without money, without weapons, without clothes, but how can they fight without food? ”

With that, he looked at the man called Iron General. Only then did General Tie understand the difficulties of the imperial court. But as a general, he did not show weakness. glanced back at Prime Minister Lenta.

Lenta continued: "Your Majesty, don't say anything else, but the 300,000 troops deployed in the south now, the amount of grain and grass consumed every day is an astonishing number!" ”

The stunned brow furrowed even higher.

He asked, "Is there a solution for the prime minister?" ”

"Yes." "That's a truce, and then we develop our agriculture and handicrafts," Renta said. This is one thing, and the other is that we need to increase the annual offerings of those vassal nations. In less than two years, our finances will be effective. ”

The Tatar slaves were studying on this side, but Liu Yong's side entered a dull daily life.
