Xing "with the spear of the son, the shield of the attacker" so that Mi had nothing to say, he immediately stepped on the inscription, curiously asked: "Liren, I see that these stones are all granite, now the hard stone, how did you carve it?" I heard that Cheng Yi carved an inscription there, and it took a lot of effort, why did you do this, but it was easy? What's the magic trick? ”

Zhao Xing immediately looked at Mi vigilantly, the person in front of him was a crazy person who dared to grab a stone even in front of Cai Jing, he replied carefully: "I am free because I understand chemistry, and what I can't do with physics, I will do it with chemistry...... These stones are my treasures, whoever dares to rob them, I dare to fight with him. Specializing in providing electronic downloads."

Mi madness came up, shouting: "I saw this inscription, I can't sleep at night, I don't know the taste of food if I don't get it, I can't sleep on the pillow, I was thinking about it just now, this stone is so heavy, how to pull it out and take it home, you have a lot of ideas, think about it for me." ”

Zhao Xing looked at Mi in disbelief: "You just said: Let me come up with an idea to help you rob myself?" …… Well, did I hear it wrong or did you say it wrong? ”

Mi shook his head: "You heard it right, this stone is red and green, it is not similar to the stone of the Central Plains, I love this stone very much." Besides, in today's world, you are the only one who can keep Cai Jingfa, stone, text, and words, I don't take such a stone home to treasure, it's just a shame to be the title of a stone idiot for my rice madman, hurry, don't stand idle, quickly think of a way for me. ”

Zhao Xing smiled, he waved his hand from behind him, and continued: "My Zhao Laohu's things are not easy to take, yes, your vision is right, this stone is from Tianzhu and is my trophy, but I still have a copy, if you ......"

Mi hurriedly took out a pair of reels from his arms, and replied: "I don't want your things in vain, I painted a picture in Japan, and give it to you, the painting I painted with my own hands is worth this stone!" ”

Mi said, and unfolded the scroll to Zhao Xing, the upper part of the scroll was unfolded, and Zhao Xing's face was revealed, which made Zhao Xing look very proud: "I, Zhao Xing, didn't pay attention, and wrote myself into history, this is one of the four masters of the Northern Song Dynasty. ”

As the painting scroll unfolded, Zhao Xing was stunned, and there was a puff of laughter behind Zhao Xing, the painting actually painted Zhao Xing striking iron, the furnace was red, and Zhao Xing's face was also slightly red, and he could still see a few beads of sweat on his forehead, and the iron pieces on his hands were not things worth boasting about, he was hitting an iron pot.

Mi Xing asked Zhao Xing in a hurry: "How is it, the painting is good?" ”

Zhao Xing replied embarrassedly: "Yes, yes...... When have I ever struck iron? ”

Mi replied solemnly: "Only grotesque." It's novel enough. Didn't people say that you were the first demon in the Great Song Dynasty? Is this painting bewitching enough? ”

Zhao Xing gritted his teeth and said, "There are even more bewitching things." Come. Take this stone out. Sent to Mi's home. Find another stone and fill it in. This stone is engraved with a few big words: Rice digging stone here! ”

Mi Lian nodded repeatedly: "Not bad." That's a good idea. I don't change my name, I don't change my surname. Since he dared to rob Zhao Laohu's stones. I should leave the first and last names and let me write them. ”

Zhao Xing turned around angrily and left. Behind. Mi then came back to his senses: "Strange. How did this man come to me quietly? ”

Zhao Xing didn't know. After that, Mi pointed to this stone for the rest of his life to show off. While allowing guests to look at the stone. While boasting: "Did you see it?" I even dare to grab Zhao Laohu's stones. That's how dare I do it all day. See? Zhao Laohu was robbed of the stone by me, and he didn't dare to say anything. Is that stone in your house more than this stone in Zhao Laohudi? Do you have as much guts as Zhao Laohu? …… What the. No! Without you, go home quietly. Rejoice in yourself. Because your stone will be placed side by side with Zhao Laohu's stone. ”

Mi said so. The land-people who had been robbed by him went back smugly. Afterwards, he also showed off to others: "Master Mi robbed me of the stones." You know what. was robbed by Master Mi and Zhao Laohu. Magical! …… What the. You also have a collection of stones in your house. Those broken stones in your house. How can Master Mi see it. While staying.

”

Mi was surprised by Zhao Xing's return, but his attention was all on the stone, and while directing the craftsmen to pry up the stone, he shouted to be careful, not noticing that Zhao Xing was surrounded by a large group of people and horses. And the readers who were in a daze on the poetry avenue were also shocked by Mi's movements, and they all gathered around to watch this rare grand occasion of "Mi commanding Zhao Xing's family to rob Zhao Xing". I didn't notice that Zhao Xingzheng was leaving the robbery scene with a large group of people.

At the gate of the Blue House, Cheng Azhu led the concubines to welcome Zhao Xing back to the house, and the newcomer Yizhangqing and Autumn were arranged by Cheng Azhu in the ranks of the maids, and in the Song Dynasty, the concubines and maids were universal, and the meaning of the two words was the same, but the maids had no status.

According to the identity of Yizhang Qing and Autumn, they can only be maidservants. However, Zhao Xing's maidservants are a bit special, most of them are Japanese and Korean, although these girls are doing the work of maidservants, but Zhao Xing has not enjoyed them, which makes Yizhangqing and Autumn stand in their team, looking a little embarrassed.

The Song Dynasty was a patriarchal society, and family affairs were presided over by the wife, and the so-called Qing officials were difficult to decide family affairs, which means that even officials could not start in the event of such family disputes. Cheng Azhu is giving the two new women a dismount, Chen Yiyi deeply agrees with this, and even Hu Ji Kasli also connived and supported, the two of them followed behind Cheng Azhu, pretending not to see the two new women, and only smiled and greeted Zhao Xing.

Among the women who greeted her, Li Qingzhao was also among them, she waited for Cheng Azhu to finish the salute, and Yingying stepped forward to ask: "Ah Weng, is this trip still smooth?" ”

Zhao Xing stretched out his hand to pull Li Qingzhao up, and asked kindly, "Feng'er hasn't come back yet?" ”

Li Qingzhao shook his head: "The official family said that he would not come back until after the change of yuan, and Uncle Huang wrote that he would take care of him, and he would be fine...... By the way, the iron cavalry went south, I heard that this time it was the clan who led the team, and it was rumored that the official family asked the Nanyang Affairs Bureau to pay for the iron cavalry to change clothes, Ah Weng, the iron cavalry came with 30,000 people, I don't know if the war horse is enough? ”

Li Qingzhao is now a kind of daughter-in-law, and she has begun to manage household affairs instead of Cheng Azhu, who is not very literate, she is the eldest daughter-in-law, and Cheng Azhu has full support behind her, so Li Qingzhao can't help but be a little more lenient, and sometimes even Zhao Xing's military affairs have to be asked.

Then again, Zhao Xing was also very doting on the first talented woman in the Song Dynasty and the first female gambler in China, so Li Qingzhao asked Zhao Xing about his military affairs, and Zhao Xing also adopted a tacit attitude.

Li Qingzhao was a vague reminder, Zhao Xing understood this hint, he laughed, and said disapprovingly: "I have added two new armies this time, the Qinglong White Tiger Legion has been organized, and there are any remaining students who graduated from the Guangnan Lecture Martial Arts Hall this year, all of them will be arranged to the Qinglong White Tiger Legion." ”

Li Qingzhao nodded: "I'll do it...... Ah Weng, what is the situation of this cavalry attack? ”

When Li Qingzhao asked this, the officers behind Zhao Xing were a little embarrassed, and Yang Shi, who was traveling all the way, replied disapprerovingly: "I said a long time ago, what are you doing with such a delicate horse as a mount, you can't afford to wait, and you act slowly like a snail, and there is no suddenness of running." ”

Zhao Xing smiled, he waved his hand, and asked the women to go into the building and lead it themselves

As he walked inside, he said: "You don't understand this, horses are different from horses, horses are hard-working, and there are also Gundam majestic who like to stay in Rome, these two are different." ”

Zhao Xing actually wants to talk about his experience in Hyundai, the car is a means of transportation, but some people think that Chery QO has no way to do it.

Sure enough, Zhao Xing had not yet opened his mouth to defend his war horse, and some officers said angrily: "Mr. Guishan is a literati and does not understand the advantages and disadvantages of war horses. ”

The horses of the Western Regions mentioned by the officers here are actually talking about Mongolian horses, but at this time, the word Mongolia has not yet appeared.

Zhao Xing immediately echoed: "Our war horses are slow to march long distances, and they are not as hard-working as the horses of the Western Regions, but that is because we do not have all the logistics personnel, this time, the training is exposing this problem, I plan to equip each soldier with seven servants in the future, so that they can specifically ensure the logistics of the cavalry." ”

Yang Shi shook his head: "Seven, you need to raise seven more servants to raise a regular soldier, so how to calculate this military expenditure?" ”

"Well, the salary I give to each soldier is equivalent to a magistrate, a magistrate raises a few servants, a few miscellaneous people, and the soldiers should also be raised, let them support these soldiers themselves, and if they recruit enough servants, I will be counted as a regular soldier, otherwise, let him be a servant soldier for others."

Several officers followed Zhao Xing to the conference room, and asked with a bitter face: "Captain, do we want to raise it too...... So, if we equip those servants with weapons, will they be able to assist them when they go into battle? ”

The officers asked if the servants could participate in the post-war robbery. Zhao Xingtou replied without replying: "This is your own business, you officers receive more salaries than Wupin Zhizhou, how many offices are around a Zhizhou Guang, you raise a few idlers, and ensure that you wield normal combat effectiveness, which is also a matter of duty." ”

Li Qingzhao trotted after Zhao Xing, and when she heard this, she immediately smiled meaningfully.

The Iron Cavalry Army is not terrible to go south, regardless of whether they intend to deter or not, Zhao Xing's flip of hands is equivalent to expanding the Suzaku and Xuanwu armies by seven times, and when the 30,000 Iron Cavalry came out of the capital, it is estimated that they still want to rely on the strength of the people to come and ask for it, but when they arrived in Hangzhou, Zhao Xing, who originally only had 3,000 troops on his side, had transformed into an army that was larger than their number, and those servants were not counted in the official establishment of the army, and the court had nothing to say about it.

In the large conference room on the second floor of the Blue House, Wan Qiyong and Wang Mingsu were waiting, and Wan Qiyong complained when he saw Zhao Xing: "There is no letter to leave people, and it will only be a few months if you go, and it is almost the end of the year. ”

Zhao Xing apologized and replied: "The Nanyang Affairs Bureau is getting bigger and bigger, I can't be busy alone, and I have wronged Mr. Wan Qi and Mr. Mingsuo, well, I am going to list the financial power of the Nanyang Affairs Bureau separately and set up a special audit department, and there is a funding committee under the audit department, what does Mr. Wan Qian think?" ”

"The Committee? Appropriation? …… I don't understand these new words, but I understand the meaning, I don't know how this appropriation committee is formed? Wan Qiyong and Wang Mingsu asked casually.

"The Audit Division is in charge of reviewing the annual budgets of the states, the appropriation applications, and when the Audit Division has completed the review, the Appropriations Committee will decide whether to allocate the funds to the Audit Division, and I intend to have Mr. Wan Qian as the chairman of the Appropriations Committee, how about it?"

Wan Qianyong already understood, and Wang Mingsu immediately asked: "You mean that in the future, when you are not there, Brother Yayan will be responsible for auditing, and I can allocate funds to various states and counties as long as I nod?" ”

Zhao Xing nodded in agreement, and Wang Mingsuo immediately urged: "Then what am I waiting for, Yayan, leave with the dossier and make room for the soldiers to discuss." ”

Wang Mingsu has been here with Zhao Xing for a long time, and he also knows that after each military operation, Zhao Xing likes to hold a meeting to recount the military experience, and then discuss the gains and losses. This is actually due to Zhao Xing's ignorance of military affairs, and he hopes to explore the correct methods in this way and establish these methods as military practices.

This kind of research is very effective, Zhao Xing is now groping, from scratch to establish the four most powerful armies of the Great Song Dynasty, but unfortunately the main direction of the four armies of demons and monsters is to conquer the outside world, Zhao Xing also plans to establish the four divine beast armies, in order to deal with the changes in the north.

The discussion lasted for a month, and as the discussion progressed, numerous marching regulations and cavalry regulations were formulated, and at the same time, a large number of officers were also assigned to the newly formed Blue Dragon and White Tiger armies. By the end of the seminar, the four armies under Zhao Xing had been officially formed, among which Suzaku and Xuanwu were named "Dragoon and Artillery Army".

The Green Dragon and the White Tiger have become pure firearms troops, which have the functions of hand-to-hand combat armies.

The officers were very happy throughout the seminar, the facilities at the Blue House were comfortable to the bone, and the two newly recruited kabuki also did a perfect job of reception, so that when the winter solstice came, the seminar finally ended, and the officers were still a little reluctant.

At the end of the military seminar, at the same time, the imperial court also officially approved Zhao Feng, and Zhao Feng was accompanied by the Arab mission, who came to Hangzhou to discuss with Zhao Xing about the opening of the firearms trade, and at the same time, the European mission, which had been neglected for a long time, was also summoned by Zhao Xing.

Zhao Xing summoned them because with the Arab mission south, he had obtained official permission from the imperial court to take full responsibility for his dealings with Nanyang, including whether or not to open the firearms trade.

As soon as he saw this European mission, Zhao Xing split his head and asked: "I think you also know that the Arabs have also sent envoys to buy firearms from us, and I am now surprised that if I sell you such a powerful weapon, how can you transport it through war-torn Africa?" The Arabs who hear the news will use all their power to prevent you from acquiring this weapon. How do you guarantee the safe return of these weapons to Europe? ”

After the translation of Fox of the Quang Nam domain, a bearded man with golden eyes muttered a few times, and Fox immediately translated: "Respected Prime Minister, we have really understood the secrecy of this technology in the Song Kingdom, and now we are not demanding that we can buy weapons, we just need to go to your promise, and refuse the Arabs while rejecting us." ”

Zhao Xing was shocked, he stood up steeply, and exclaimed in his heart: "They got it!" They got their hands on the gunpowder formula, who did it? In this ancient world, where there was no analytical chemistry, it was impossible for them to guess the formula of gunpowder even if they saw it, unless they got the real formula. Who gave them the formula? ”

Gunpowder is not a secret in the Great Song Dynasty, the gunpowder formula is clearly recorded in the "Wujing General Essentials", the Europeans are good at screening methods, they must have screened the best combination of gunpowder from the original formula, and there must be a chemist in the team they followed.

What to do? Kill them?

All kinds of thoughts were intertwined in Zhao Xing's heart. His gaze is sometimes fierce, sometimes soft. (To be continued, if you want to know what will happen next, 8.) , more chapters, support work, support ! )
