Chapter 257 - Sale of Firearms

In a golden-roofed tent in the grassland royal court, an old man walked in with a solemn face in a costume, so the second prince had almost finished gathering his troops, and he also promised to let the old man, the confidant of the old Hu Khan, meet.

As soon as the old man saw Lao Hu Khan lying on the bed like a dead pig, the old man's eyes flashed with the two of them pointing out the country in high spirits, and he looked at Lao Hu Khan in a sullen mood.

"Great Khan, Weichen is going to die ten times now, Great Khan, you have to take care."

The old man explained the situation in detail one by one, and in the evening, the old man placed his family members in a tribe that was familiar and friendly to him, and he dressed himself in full costume and marched towards Youyun City.

At this time, the second prince had already gathered 200,000 cavalry, of course, his henchmen only had 50,000 cavalry, and the rest were cavalry sent by those tribes who were loyal to them, mainly to fight against the wind, and the second prince was very clear about this.

"The situation of Yang Xiuqing's army can be clearly explored." The second prince asked the new intelligence officer.

"My lord, it is already clear that most of the enemy's infantry is waiting in the territory where the Tuwu King is located, but there is a force of cavalry missing." At the end, the young man was covered in a cold sweat: "Great Khan, they should have entered the depths of the steppe at this moment, but they have not been out to fight, nor have they been in contact with the tribe, so they have not been found for the time being. ”

"Well, then leave them alone." The second prince said expressionlessly, but he sneered in his heart, he was very eager for Yang Xiuqing's cavalry to cause huge casualties in the back, and then he could collect them.

In fact, deep down in the second prince's heart, he very much agreed with his father's idea of establishing a centralized royal court, but the local tribe was powerful, and this matter was not a one-day success, but he already had an idea at this time.

"Tell this king about Yang Xiuqing again." Originally, the diehard loyalists of the second prince wanted the second prince to ascend to the throne at this time and then encircle and suppress the eldest prince, but the second prince wanted to plot a conspiracy, so he only asked his subordinates to call him the king.

"Yang Xiuqing has gathered more than 100,000 infantry, and he drills on the grassland where the king of earth affairs is every day, especially the sound of gunfire, which is really continuous, but there are achievements that show that the eldest prince is uniting with some tribes, and has also begun to collect those scattered and homeless tribesmen, and also select soldiers, etc., seeing that he wants to form an army."

"Well, there's more." The second prince squinted at the person in front of him.

When the young man saw the indifferent eyes of the second prince, his heart tightened, and just as he was about to say something, a desolate man walked in.

"Report, there is a situation." The visitor exclaimed.

"Come in." The second prince's face turned cold when he heard this.

"The eldest prince sent someone to deliver a letter." The young man handed over a letter with a pale face: "Also, a moment ago, countless papers flew down from the sky, and several groups of people went straight to the tribe, all saying, the eldest prince said that you assassinated the Great Khan, and then fought you to the death, and the place was at the place of the king of earth, if the king did not go, then prove, prove..." ”

"Prove what, say quickly?" The second prince shouted with a pale face.

"Prove that the king is a man without eggs." In fact, the last two words of the person on the eldest prince's side said that the eunuch is not a man, but the person who came changed it to the word man very interestingly.

The second prince's eyes raised his head like a breath of fire: "Come on, pull this person down and feed the dog." “

The visitor looked at the second prince blankly, and instantly shouted in disbelief: "No, king, I am loyal to you, you can't ......." “

As the voice faded away, the second prince closed his eyes slightly, and after a while, his eyes stared at the person in front of him as if they were shining: "Find out the source." “

"It's the king." The young man took the plunge.

At this time, Yang Xiuqing looked at the city wall that had already taken shape and said happily: "Uncle Ma, look, this will be the place where we will achieve our next results." ”

Ma Quan looked at Yang Xiuqing's fingers and saw that countless slave laborers were working hard to build the city, and his heart was hot.

"Young master, it's so great, if you can achieve this unprecedented feat, then you will go down in history." Ma Quan felt it.

That knew that Yang Xiuqing looked away and said with a face as usual: "I don't need these false names, I just want to be a rich second generation now." ”

"I know that the young master has great ambitions, but I believe that the young master will succeed in the end." Ma Quan looked at Yang Xiuqing as if she was a low-key person.

Yang Xiuqing's face turned red, in fact, he really didn't have any ambition in his heart, he just wanted to live a life of the rich second generation and wait for death, but when he thought of the trouble that Wen Zheng and the emperor brought him, he felt a burst of anger in his heart.

At this time, Wen Zheng's granddaughter had already come over with the first batch of criminal officials, and she also came with six salutes, which was intolerable for Yang Xiuqing to say no, Yang Xiuqing was equivalent to anger at these beasts.

"Young master, young master, it's already done." Just when Yang Xiuqing remembered Wen Zheng's troubles, Yang Yi's voice came.

It turned out that at this time, Huang Daxiong, according to Yang Xiuqing's prior plan, finally investigated the corrupt officials and profiteers behind him and confiscated a large number of private goods they brought, and sent the list back to the emperor.

"Well, what is Lao Huang doing, why is it only done now, if something happens, he won't be fun." Ye Youji, who was beside him, answered dissatisfiedly: "You must know that our family is in the clouds, boy, have you arrived with those goods?" “

Ye Youji was always thinking about Yang Xiu's freshly improved weapon, and Yang Xiuqing looked at Yang Yi when he heard this: "Say, it's there." “

"There are still a hundred miles from here, if it goes well, we can reach it tonight, but, young master, are those people really good?" Yang Yi wondered.

"Don't worry, it will be possible, now it depends on Brother Ye's commanding ability." Yang Xiuqing said casually.

As soon as Yang Xiuqing's words fell, a group of people dressed in Hu people ran over, and Yang Xiuqing saw the eldest prince looking at him with a solemn face.

"Brother Yang, what you asked for has been done, next?" The eldest prince asked as soon as he approached.

When Yang Xiuqing heard this, his face was not surprised at all, he smiled and said: "Big brother, don't be nervous, you can wait for victory then, but don't think that we can settle the country in one battle, this battle is far from being able to eliminate the second prince, even if I transfer the cavalry over, it will be the same, you must know that the cavalry is still profitable." “

Listening to Yang Xiuqing's reminder, the eldest prince never thought that Yang Xiuqing could destroy the second prince in a battle, even if he saw the firearms in the hands of Yang Xiuqing's soldiers, but for him who was familiar with the cavalry, he had already compared, on the grassland, if nothing happened, the cavalry still had a good chance of winning, so at this time, the eldest prince only wanted Yang Xiuqing to be able to top the second prince It would be the best, and when he formed the cavalry, it would be time for revenge.

"Big brother, what about those tribes?" Yang Xiuqing squinted at the eldest prince, he couldn't imagine that the prestige of the eldest prince in the Hu people was so high, in just a few days, there were dozens of thousands to tens of thousands of people to vote, and the eldest prince also formed a cavalry of 10,000 people.

However, Yang Xiuqing was even more unexpected, the eldest prince dared to learn from him and install firearms, for this, Ye Youji was very opposed to selling and buying firearms, especially to teach Hu people to use firearms, but Yang Xiuqing didn't care at all about selling them as usual.

However, Yang Xiuqing did not hand over the firearms to the eldest prince now, but said that he was not enough, so he could only let the workshop produce them, in fact, in Yang Xiuqing's heart, he was very happy that the eldest prince wanted to install firearms, because the manufacture of firearms was in his hands, and the quality was controllable.

"Those big tribes have agreed that they will fall to us as soon as we have a chance to win, but if I don't have that strength, then don't blame them." When the eldest prince said this, his face was full of anger, because these tribes were very loyal to him before, and often said in front of him that even if they had to go up to the volcano and go to the sea of fire, Nazhi now just wanted them to release water.

"That's good, have you done the code?" Yang Xiuqing asked.

"Alright, it's all right, but what's the use of that." The eldest prince said helplessly.

"And that's it, you can just watch it." Yang Xiuqing said with a smile.

When Ye Youji saw Yang Xiuqing's appearance, he suddenly thought of the new type of weapon that Yang Xiuqing said, and he was happy in his heart, but when he thought that Yang Xiuqing was going to sell weapons to the eldest prince, his face became gloomy again.

After the eldest prince left, Ye Youji said eagerly: "Yang boy, you really want to sell weapons to him, you must know that most of our skills rely on firearms." “

Yang Xiuqing looked at last week, Yang Er and the others immediately knew what Yang Xiuqing meant, they emptied everyone in each other's places, but they surrounded them from afar, Yang Xiuqing saw this and said softly: "Brother Ye, those weapons are not something that can be used for a lifetime, not to mention the rest, just gunpowder, it is difficult for the other party to produce, besides, you should remember what the firearms were like before." “

"Compared to our current firearms, those official creations before are equivalent to burning sticks." When Ye Youji said this, he immediately understood what Yang Xiuqing meant, but he immediately thought that the previous firearms were a little far from the current ones, thinking of this, Ye Youji persuaded: "Yang boy, the previous firearms are not the same as the current firearms, now I said, if you give those goods to the Hu people, will they not find the problem, and then won't they ask for trouble?" ”

Yang Xiuqing looked away: "The gun mainly lies in the materials and the techniques of the craftsmen, when we make a batch of shorter range, poor quality, it will break down after a few shots, even if they find the problem by then, we can also use the skilled craftsmen not in the clouds and rush to work, he doesn't dare to say anything." ”

When Ye Youji heard this, he couldn't help but sigh: "Yang boy, you really can be called the number one yin person in the world." ”

Yang Xiuqing resisted the urge to beat people, he said coldly with a dark face: "You are not a good product, Lao Ye will look at you next, the goods will arrive tonight, the number of people is enough, all the fifteen armies, not stepping horses, this pressure is not small." ”
