When Wei Wuji waved his order and summoned all the soldiers and horses to gather in Yan County and prepare to fight with the Huns, Wei Hou, who was far away in Wu'an, also received the first return from Yanshan.

Wei Wuji left Wu'an in mid-August, and now half a month has passed.

Originally, after Wei Wuji arrived, there should have been rewards one after another, but Wei Hou also had an order that if it was a trivial matter, there was no need to report it.

This made the people of Yanshan Wind Shadow Division hesitate, and they didn't know what was not a trivial matter.

But after Wei Wuji arrived at Ren Yanshan, he didn't make any big moves except for the encounter outside Jingbei City, so they could only report this matter as a major event until now.

In the Yongming Palace, Wei Hou held a teacup in one hand and a newspaper in the other, letting out a hearty laugh that had not been seen for a long time.

"The Huns retreated three hundred miles, okay! All right! Wei Hou said with a smile, and the whole person felt relaxed from the inside out.

This half a year has definitely been one of the most difficult periods of time in his more than ten years in power.

The endless conquests, the endless consumption of money and food, and the border emergencies that broke out from time to time all made Wei Hou feel haggard.

And Yanshan, who had been fighting unfavorably for several days, was even more of a heart disease in Wei Hou's heart, and he was a little out of breath.

And today, there is finally good news from Yanshan.

Seeing that Wei Hou was in a good mood, Tie Shan, the person in charge of the Wind Shadow Division, who was standing on the side, also had a smile on his face at this time.

I heard him speak: "Your Majesty, the soldiers of the five princes who surrendered without a fight are gratifying...... Come to think of it, the defeat of the Huns is just around the corner! ”

The soldier who surrenders without a fight is the highest level among soldiers, and it is also the realm that Wei Hou himself has always yearned for.

Therefore, Wei Hou naturally recognized Wei Wuji's ability, otherwise he would not have overruled public opinion and chose to let Wei Wuji go out of the mountain.

But this also has a hint of concern, the monarch is always suspicious, especially between father and son, not to mention his mother's father and son who are entangled in grievances.

Therefore, after Tie Shan said this, Wei Hou's mind changed a little, and he began to think about how to prevent the other party from becoming a big tail.

You must know that although the vitality of the Lingbei battalion is greatly damaged, the infantry army is still there, and once it is reorganized, it will be an iron army.

What's more, Wei Wuji now still holds the soldiers of the three counties such as Yanshan, and the military power in his hands is not small, and thinking of these makes Wei Hou feel a little drummed in his heart.

However, Wei Hou is not an ordinary person after all, he has to worry about the things that should be worried, but the people who should be used still have to be used, and he is confident that he can still suppress the large and small forces in the country.

"Now it's just a small victory, and it hasn't officially fought with the Hun army, so it's too early to say victory!" Wei Hou said slowly, he still likes to hear the results of a direct victory.

Tie Shan continued: "I heard that the fifth prince has ordered the Wuyang garrison to enter the customs, and the prince and the marquis Mingjian, last year it was that army that defeated the Huns in a row!" ”

Wei Hou couldn't help but be stunned, and then an indescribable trace of anger welled up in his heart.

When Yanshan was fighting for life and death, where was this army? Wei Hou would not believe the results of the great battle between this army and the Donghu people, because it was a fool.

It can be seen that Wei Wuji does not have a family and a country in his heart, this is a person who is extremely selfish...... Wei Hou commented on his son in his heart.

Yanshan fought so hard before, what was his son doing? He's fishing outside Wu'an City! The garrison of Wuyang City did not dispatch a single soldier.

Now that this guy has only taken office, he has transferred his private army into the customs to "profit" for himself, how can you make Wei Hou not angry.

But these anger Wei Hou can't be declared, Wei Wuji is also a member of the Wei State Office, and the Wei State Office can't afford to lose this person.

Not only that, if someone slandered Wei Wuji in this way, Wei Hou would have to speak out for Wei Wuji in order to maintain the face of the office's unity.

"Even if the battle in Yanshan goes well, for my Great Wei, the western military affairs are the top priority, and your people must collect information carefully!" Wei Hou said in a deep voice.

Tie Shan has followed Wei Hou for so many years, and at this time, he naturally felt a slight change in Wei Hou's mood.

Although he didn't know why, he wouldn't delve into it, and he still understood the truth that a companion is like a tiger.

Since the Marquis of Wei ordered at this time, Tie Shan had no choice but to bow down honestly and say: "The minister receives the order!" ”

"If there is any news from Yanshan, let's talk about it together!" Wei Hou said again.

Although he said that the matter of Yanshan is not so important, in fact, every major war is extremely important, and if Yanshan is not quiet, it will be difficult for the northern Xinjiang to be safe, and if the northern Xinjiang is not safe, it will be a great trouble for the enemy to suffer from the abdomen and back.

Tie Shan thought about it, of course, there was a lot of news in Yanshan that was not in the newspaper, and at this time, Tie Shan said something that Wei Hou was more concerned about.

"Your Majesty, the ordnance production used by the army of the fifth prince is already roughly eyebrow-raising!" Iron Mountain said slowly.

Although he said this vaguely, he immediately grabbed Wei Hou's attention.

Wei Wuji's army was very capable of fighting, so naturally there were many rumors about it, and Wei Hou himself was more concerned about why this army was so capable of fighting.

Finally, after several deductions and investigations, the results were concluded that the armor and weapons of this army were different from the standard weapons of the Wei army.

Figuring this out wasn't a difficult task for Wei Hou, the Wind Shadow Division wasn't a dry meal, they were much stronger than Wei Wuji's men.

Since it is by virtue of the advantages of the armor, then it is a great thing for the Marquis of Wei, as long as all the other parts of the Wei army are replaced with these armors, then who in the world can stop the sharpness of the Wei army?

Tie Shan said: "According to the report below, it can only be determined that the army under the fifth prince is made of iron......

Saying this, Tie Shan stopped, not that he didn't want to continue, but that he had nothing more to say, so he inquired about these things.

In other words, it is the same as not saying it, and it is not operable at all.

Then, Wei Hou continued to ask: "Iron tools can also be used as blades?" ”

It's not that Wei Hou has little knowledge, but this era uses copper as a weapon, and the iron is too brittle to be used for battle formation.

Tie Shan had to nod, and then said, "It is rumored that there is a natural iron mine in the Heishui River outside the Great Wall of Lingbei, and now it has been mined out!" ”

"The weapons in Wuyang City today can only be the raw materials obtained from the smelting of these iron ores, so they must be using iron tools!" Iron Mountain is very determined.

Speaking of this, seeing that Wei Hou did not interrupt his meaning, Tie Shan continued: "Your Majesty, the bronze artifacts of hundreds of years ago are not equally useless compared to today's bronze artifacts? ”

The meaning of the iron mountain Wei Hou understood that the times were developing and science and technology were advancing, and the original bronze was not suitable for weapons.

"You have a point!" Wei Hou nodded.

But today, he didn't want to discuss this topic anymore, so he listened to Wei Hou's final order: "Continue to investigate this matter, and be sure to find out the important matter of iron casting...... In addition, you can also send out people to find the location of iron mines within the border! ”

I have to say that Wei Hou had a long-term vision, and when he began to investigate the mystery of iron weapon casting, he began to look for ore and prepare for batch casting.

When Tieshan retreated, Wei Hou had to pick up another report on the table, which was from the front line of Changping Pass in the west.

And next to it, there is also a report from the occupied areas of the Lu State, and the newly occupied places are not so easy to rule.

In an instant, Wei Hou felt a headache, he really had a headache, and it had been going on for more than half a year, and it had been pressed with medicine.

Of course, the cause of this chronic disease is because of the unfavorable situation in the past few months.

The Wei army enjoys what the country serves, and they also have to inherit the country's weight!
