"Bang!"

Cao Bin, who was old, was very angry, and the dragon case with dry hands covered with chicken skin was thumping.

On the Hongzheng Hall.

Like quails, the ministers fell to their knees with their heads buried between their legs.

The dragon son and grandson of the Cao family, under the power of Cao Bin, unconsciously lowered his head.

"It's too much of a deception! It's just too deceitful! ”

Cao Bin roared angrily.

Cao Can, who was only fifty years old, stepped forward and arched his hand: "Father...... Calm ...... anger"

"People have deceived the door, and you let me be angry?"

Cao Bin was furious, and pointed at the dragon sons and grandsons and scolded, "Why did I give birth to such a bunch of waste things as you, one by one, you only know how to play prestige on the battlefield, and when you encounter serious things, you are not more useful than a silver-like pewter spearhead."

If you have any ability, Yang Yansi, that erector dares to deceive me. ”

Cao Bin's round eyes were bloodshot, and he roared at everyone, "And you gang of waste ministers, one by one, eat and drink, and it is useless at a critical time." ”

"Yang Yansi's erector robbed my grandson and killed the envoys I sent, and they all rode on my head, but you advised me to endure and endure and not destroy the alliance between the two countries?"

"Now that I have been bullied by Yang Yansi to this point, what do you think is the alliance between the two countries?"

“……”

The governor slowly raised his head, and after bowing again, he said with a bitter face: "Your Majesty, if you can't bear it, you will make a big plan...... The national strength of Yan is strong, and it is not comparable to my Shu country. ”

"Bear with me! It's forbearance again! I've endured it for decades, do I have to endure it when I die? ”

Cao Bin's voice was colder than ice ballast.

"The sin of the minister deserves death!"

"Humph!"

Cao Bin snorted coldly, gritted his teeth and said: "I want to send troops, I want to crusade against Yan Kingdom, and I want to get my grandson back from Yang Yansi's vertical son." ”

"Your Majesty! Never! ”

Ping Zhangshi knelt down and said: "Your Majesty, it is enough to ask for the matter of the son of the world through diplomatic means, and you must not raise swords and soldiers." Our Shu Kingdom has been fighting for many years, although a huge piece of new soil has been added, but the treasury has been consumed.

The people are already miserable under heavy taxes.

At this time, it is the time to recuperate, and if you use the sword again, the country of Shu will be in danger! ”

Cao Bin patted the dragon case and scolded: "The people, you waste, you know all day long that you threaten me with the people. I want to crusade against Yan Kingdom, and I want to teach Yang Yansi a lesson.

Didn't you say that the treasury was empty?

Then I will not need the money of the treasury.

The soldiers and horses of our Shu Kingdom have fought in the Mauryan Dynasty for many years and have amassed huge wealth.

I took the money of the Peacock Dynasty to attack the Yan Kingdom, you don't have anything to say, right? ”

When the Ministry of Industry Shangshu heard this, he hurriedly climbed out of the train and shouted: "Your Majesty, the new land of the Mauryan Dynasty in Xinna needs a lot of money to govern, and it is even more important to promote education and let the local barbarians follow.

At present, the yamen at all levels of the Mauryan Dynasty have been properly settled, and now is a good time to promote education and build bridges and pave roads.

All of these things need financial support.

So the money of the Mauryan Empire can't be touched, Your Majesty. ”

Cao Bin said coldly: "You also said that the local people are just some barbarians. Since they are barbarians, they are not the people of my Shu country, not the people of my Shu country, I don't care if they live or die. ”

Cao Bin stood up and scanned everyone with a cold gaze, "I have made up my mind, whoever persuades me again, I will kill whom." ”

Dropping this sentence, Cao Bin snorted coldly, and left the hall with the help of the eunuch.

The ministers looked at each other, their faces full of bitterness.

Ping Zhangshi came to Cao Can, arched, and said in a trembling voice: "The eldest prince, Yan Guo is always strong, and he has been recuperating for many years, and the national strength is terrifying. My Shu Kingdom and Yan Kingdom started a war, and the end ...... I'm afraid it's not going to be too good.

You must persuade Your Majesty to take back his life. ”

Cao Can's face was ugly and said, "Teacher, you are embarrassing me." As you know, the older my father gets, the more powerful he becomes. What he decides, I don't use even if I talk about it. ”

Ping Zhangshi looked bitter, "Is there no other way?" ”

The Ministry of Industry Shangshu also came over at this time, with a sad face, "Your Highness, the establishment of the Shu Kingdom is the result of your Highnesses' expeditions to the west on the one hand, and on the other hand, it also depends on the benefits of the firearms of the Yan Kingdom.

The firearms of the Yan Kingdom have now been replaced to the thirteenth generation.

And what my Shu country uses now is only three generations of firearms.

The gap between this does not need to be explicitly stated by the minister, you should also understand it. ”

Hubu Shangshu came up and added: "Yan country is near the sea, they have opened the door to let merchants enter and exit freely, and the merchants of the surrounding countries have gathered in Yan country, and every year, the commercial tax collected by Yan country has probably reached 10,000 yuan."

And the people of Yan State, under the encouragement of the Yan State court, are growing exponentially every year.

The land of Yan is vast, and the land distributed to the people is sufficient.

Their new crops are emerging all the time.

Grain production is growing every year, and the amount of grain stored is already incalculable.

Based on the above, in terms of weapons, money and food, and population, Shu is not as much as Yan State.

Shu crusade against Yan ......"

Tobe Shangshu didn't continue, but several people saw a look of disbelief on his face.

The military department Shangshu didn't know when he also arrived here, and after seeing that several people were silent, he said stiffly: "I can't beat it!" ”

Cao Can's face changed frequently, and after a while, he sighed: "The only way to do this is to let the seventh brother come back." ”

"King of Western Yachu?!"

Ping Zhangshi and the others' faces became even more ugly.

Cao Wei, the king of Chu in the West, is known as the reincarnation of the overlord.

Since he broke through the capital of the Peacock Empire and divided the territory of the Peacock Empire with the Yan Kingdom, he has become a taboo in the Shu Kingdom.

Words like "Meritorious Boss" are not too much to use on him.

Even Cao Bin, the founder of the Shu Kingdom, is a head weaker than Cao Wei in terms of merit.

It's good that he's sitting in the Mauryan Dynasty now.

But once he returned to the capital of Shu.

Cao Can's succession to the throne is not so stable.

Ping Zhangshi and others can be regarded as loyal supporters of Cao Can's succession.

"I'm afraid this is inappropriate!"

The governor shook his head and shook his head vigorously.

"Let's talk about it again and see if there's any other way."

……

Cao Bin scolded Yang Qi in the palace of Shu as a vertical son, and threatened to ask for the news of Yan State, which was sent to Yang Qi's hands ten years later.

Yang Qi was discussing with Su Yijian and others about the governance of the new land that he had accepted from the Jin State.

After getting the news, instead of getting angry, he raised the secret letter in his hand and smiled at Su Yijian, Lu Duan and others: "I, my father-in-law, has a very big temper!" I just like Cao Yan's child, and I want him to stay in my Yan Kingdom for a few more days, and my father-in-law will send troops to attack my Yan Kingdom. ”

Yang Qi threw the letter to Su Yijian, "Take a look and tell me what you think." ”

Su Yijian read the letter at a glance, and after handing it to Lu Duan, he was puzzled: "Your Majesty, what is unique about this Cao Yan, it is worth Your Majesty to break the alliance between Yanshu and Shu and force him to stay." ”

After reading the letter, Lu Duan and the others also nodded, saying that they wanted to know the uniqueness of Cao Tong.

Yang Qi got up, paced to the window, turned his back to Su Yijian and the others, and said with a smile: "Didn't you keep asking me before, why are there frequent explosions in the palace?" I can tell you now.

That's because my emperor and Cao Tong are working on a militaristic weapon. ”

Su Yijian was stunned, "Firearms? ”

Yang Qi shook his head, "Non-firearms, Yanguo's firearms have reached a bottleneck period, and if they want to develop in the future, there are still important factors to explore." The militaristic weapon I am talking about is a transport-type weapon. ”

Lu Duan frowned, "What about the specifics?" ”

The country is so huge that the Yan Kingdom is so large that ordinary militaristic weapons can no longer play a big role.

Ordinary transportation tools don't play much of a role.

Therefore, Lu Duan and the others need to accurately understand the performance of the militaristic weapon in Yang Qi's mouth before they can judge it.

Yang Qi looked up at the sky outside the window, and said with some reminiscence: "That is a sharp weapon that only needs a few hundred people to transport hundreds of thousands of catties of baggage to the side plug." Once it is turned on, it does not need to stop and can operate around the clock until it reaches its destination.

Most importantly, it will continue to speed up as it continues to improve.

It only takes ten years to transport supplies from Yanjing City to Goryeo. ”

Su Yijian and the others widened their eyes in vain, opened their mouths wide, and exclaimed, "Is there really such a sharp weapon? ”

The speed, load, and manpower required can really reach the level that Yang Qi said, then it will be really incredible.

According to their inherent means of transportation, it took nearly three months to transport the supplies to Goryeo Province.

And the manpower required on this road, the cost of eating and chewing, is a huge number.

Once there is such a sharp weapon, the transportation costs that can be saved in the middle can be unimaginably huge.

More importantly, with such a sharp weapon to communicate with the whole country, the imperial court's jurisdiction over the whole country will rise to a new height.

There is a disaster there that needs to be treated by the imperial court, which can send people and supplies over in a very short time.

This will greatly reduce the loss of the imperial court in the face of disaster.

In terms of war, it has an immeasurable role.

Seeing Su Yijian and the others looking at him in disbelief, Yang Qi smiled and said, "When did I lie to you?" Although this militaristic weapon is still immature, according to the research speed of the two children, we will definitely be able to see it in our lifetimes, and even ride it.

What's more, the only people who can make and study this thing are my emperor and Cao Tong at present.

Tell me, can I let Cao Tong go? ”

Su Yijian and the others closed their eyes and took a few deep breaths, waiting until their excitement was suppressed.

Su Yijian said expressionlessly: "This kind of militaristic weapon is not lost in a century-old plan. If the minister can travel back and forth between Seoul and Yanjing in his lifetime, this life is enough. ”

Lu Duan and the others nodded one after another.

Yang Qile was happy, "Then you say, this person ...... Can I give it to Shu? ”

Lu Duan pouted and said: "Your Majesty, with such a talent, how can He De of Shu Kingdom take it for himself." If it weren't for the great education of my Yan country, how could it be possible to cultivate such a good talent. Since it is a good talent cultivated by my Yan Kingdom, it is natural that only my Yan Kingdom can use it. ”

"The minister seconded the proposal!"

"The minister seconded the proposal!"

“……”

Wang Yanling, who had already been transferred back to Yanjing City, interjected: "What's the use of saying so much, just fight." I, Yan Guohe, have been afraid of others on the battlefield. ”

Su Yijian's eyes fell on him in unison.

Wang Yanling was a little uncomfortable, and said hesitantly: "What I said is not right? ”

"Vulgar!"

"Savage!"

"Reckless!"

“……”

Disdainful words popped out of the mouths of Su Yijian and the others.

After Lu Duan despised Wang Yanling, he said indifferently: "My Yan country is a big country, how can I be brave." Shu wants to conquer my Yan country, this is a provocation. When we persecute and fight back, it is a just battle. ”

Su Yijian shook his head and said: "The people of Shu have been suffering for a long time, we are thinking about the same love for the descendants of Yan and Huang at the same time, and it is natural to save them." ”

“……”

Wang Yanling blinked, looking at the two of them, speechless.

He really wanted to tell these two goods, can he not pretend to be in front of his own people?

Yang Qi was very satisfied with the reaction of Su Yijian and the others, he turned around and said with a smile: "You have this thought, I am very relieved. However, if I expect it to be good, this battle will not be fought. ”

"Oh?"

In the puzzled eyes of Su Yijian and the others, Yang Qi said leisurely: "They don't have the strength to attack my Yan Kingdom. My father-in-law is hot-headed for a while, and someone will come forward to dissuade him. ”

After a pause, Yang Qi said again: "However, my father-in-law has this idea, there will be a battle between Shu Yan, but this time may be a little longer." Be prepared for danger in times of peace, and we need to move now. ”

"Di Qing has swept away many small tribal rebellions in northern Xinjiang, and has made great contributions to the regiment. Mu Guiying went to the Peacock Dynasty, followed my brother, and experienced a lot of wars, large and small, and now he has been promoted to a partial general of the first army.

I am ready to transfer the two of them to the border of Shu, what do you think? ”

Yang Qi wants to transfer Di Qing and Mu Guiying to guard against Shu, and he will inevitably be promoted exceptionally.

The exceptional promotion is not quite in line with the national law of Yan Kingdom, so it is natural to know that they will be called.

But they do not accept their refutation.

This was to show his respect for his courtiers as an emperor.

After all, Di Qing and Mu Guiying are people from the military, and they should be promoted and dispatched, and the Military Aircraft Pavilion decides.

Yang Qi didn't greet them, and when they were promoted to these two, they didn't have a temper.

Therefore, when Yang Qi raised this question, Su Yijian and the others saluted together and said that they had no objections.

After the monarch and his entourage agreed on the newly incorporated land governance issue in the imperial study, they left one after another.

Yang Qi's holy decree of promoting Di Qing and Mu Guiying also went out of the palace gate.

It was at this time that a thin and black young man with a burden on his back slowly stepped into Yanjing City.

He seemed to be kind to everyone.

He always nods his head and smiles at everyone around him who smiles at him.

Although he was dark and thin, everyone who saw his smiling face could feel a lot of warmth from him.

He refused the invitation of the well-wishers on the road to send him in a horse-drawn carriage, and walked the streets alone with a package on his back.

When I finally arrived at the gate of the palace, I stopped.

Looking at the tall and towering palace gate, the smile on his face stiffened a little, and he said in a low voice: "Father, I'm back......"
