Ke Yao smiled: "According to me, my brother is the happiest person in the world, Sister Qin is the most virtuous among us, Sister Qingdai is not only good-looking, but also very skilled, Fei'er is clever, pity, all of them are beautiful, and now that the second lady has married in, not only the city and the country, but also a good martial arts, my brother is afraid that everything he wants is complete." He's the happiest person, don't you? ”

Everyone laughed and said yes.

Du Wenhao couldn't close his mouth together, and nodded yes repeatedly.

has already said that the three days of the newlywed are for Wang Runxue, so in the past three days, Du Wenhao and Wang Runxue are like glue, sticking together day and night, Wang Runxue explained the art of war to Du Wenhao during the day, taught him to ride a horse and shoot arrows, and the Yang family gun, entered the cave room early at night, and went to Wushan together.

The three-day wedding holiday was over, and on the morning of the fourth day, Du Wenhao came to Sanya first, and Li Pu reported to him the work of the past three days, and learned that the forbidden troops had begun to train in accordance with the "General Essentials of the Martial Arts", and the notice of recruiting members of the special combat team had been issued, but this matter was not so fast, and in the case of extremely backward communications and transportation in ancient times, it would take at least one or two months to see the results.

Du Wenhao called Cai Jing and Shen Shengping again and asked about the preparations for the establishment of the Security Bureau's Internal Intelligence Special Service Department and the Foreign Intelligence Special Service Department. The operational unit of the External Intelligence Division is located within the three intelligence services. Although it takes time for the intelligence network of the intelligence department to be formed, Cai Jing acted quickly and had already sent his henchmen to the border with Du Wenhao's appointment document and Cai Jing's handwritten letter, appointing his relative Cai Tou as the head of the Xixia Intelligence Division of the Foreign Intelligence Department. He was responsible for forming an intelligence network against Western Xia. It's just that Du Wenhao has not found a suitable candidate for the director of the Yu Guo Intelligence Department.

In contrast, the work of the Special Intelligence Division is much faster. Shen Shengping is familiar with the road again, he used to have many acquaintances and eyeliner in the court, but now he has developed in, but it is just an additional procedure.

The Internal Intelligence Division consists of two divisions, namely the Intelligence Service and the Special Services Service. Because of the involvement of court officials, Du Wenhao did not dare to delegate power too much, so the post of director of the secret service was concurrently held by himself. In other words, if you want to take action against an official of the imperial court who is suspected of rebellion, you must order it yourself.

According to Du Wenhao's instructions, the personnel of the secret service of the Internal Intelligence Department were selected from the forbidden army in the capital, especially Ban Zhili, and most of them were soldiers who had followed Du Wenhao to fight in Tibet.

At the beginning of the formation, there were only two capitals, a total of 200 people.

Du Wenhao immediately summoned the members of these special task forces, personally gave lectures, and explained their work tasks and responsibilities. Tell them that in the future, they will deal with all the important ministers of the court who are suspected of rebellion, and they must first pass the ideological test and dare to face difficulties.

After Du Wenhao inspected the Sanya and learned about the establishment of the Security Bureau, he went to the Ordnance Institute to inspect it. He is now also the Weapons Superintendent of the Ordnance Institute. The old ordnance superintendent who didn't know anything about it had been dismissed from his post. Li Hong, a veteran soldier who invented the Divine Arm Bow, has recovered from his injuries and returned to work. Seeing Du Wenhao, he was very grateful, and he was busy kneeling down and kowtowing to thank him.

Du Wenhao stopped him, helped him sit down on a chair, and said with a smile: "Old man, you invented the Divine Arm Bow, which is a very good crossbow that greatly enhances the combat effectiveness of our army, and I want to give you a heavy reward." Well......, so be it, the prize is five thousand taels of silver! ”

Five thousand taels of silver are worth five million yuan.

Li Hong was stunned, he couldn't believe his ears: "This ......, the general, the villain doesn't dare to be a ......"

Du Wenhao said: "What is this, meritorious service will be awarded!" Rightfully so. By the way, I will promote you to be the judge (that is, the dean) of the Bow and Crossbow Academy, and you will be responsible for the design and production of bows and arrows in the Bow and Crossbow Academy. Directly accountable to me. ”

Before that, Li Hong was just an ordinary veteran soldier, and the status of the soldier was very low, I didn't expect that as soon as Du Wenhao came to power, he directly promoted him to be the judge of the bow and crossbow courtyard of the ordnance institute, which is a seven-rank official, second only to the ordnance supervisor and the ordnance junior superintendent.

In the Song Dynasty, the appointment of officials above the seventh rank was submitted by the Ministry of Officials to the emperor for approval. Those below the seventh grade shall be directly appointed by the Ministry of Officials. Of course, the emperor has the right to appoint all officials directly. The chief executive has the right to directly appoint officials below the seventh grade of the department under his direct control, and the report department can go through the formalities for the record. This is what is required by the system of chiefs' responsibility.

So when Li Hong heard this, he was really surprised and delighted, and hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed.

Du Wenhao hurriedly helped him up: "You have to give full play to your ingenuity and gather all the people who have the ability to invent and create among the craftsmen, and I will set up a special weapons and equipment research room in our ordnance institute to study weapons and equipment and invent new weapons and equipment." ”

Li Hong nodded again and again: "This idea is really good!" The villain must fulfill his duties and live up to the cultivation grace of the grandfather of the country. ”

After Du Wenhao really encouraged a few more words, he left the bow and crossbow courtyard and came to the east workshop.

The East Workshop is responsible for the production of individual weapons and equipment. Du Wenhao convened a meeting of veteran craftsmen who have been engaged in the design and production of military uniforms for many years in the East Workshop.

In order to make his special combat team and the special service of the National Security Bureau exert a greater deterrent effect, Du Wenhao has already thought of imitating the special forces combat uniforms and public security training uniforms to design the uniforms of the special combat teams and special services of the Great Song Dynasty, including helmets, medical vests, steel plate stab-proof vests, and big-headed military boots. The design requirement was to be able to carry weapons such as bows and short swords, as well as sleeping bags, dry food, drinking water and other materials. Naturally, the reconnaissance vest of the cold weapon era cannot be applied to the clothing of modern special forces, and must be designed according to the characteristics of the weapons and equipment used in that era.

After Du Wenhao said the requirements, he simply drew a sketch and handed it over to the soldier for specific design and manufacturing.

After it was over, Du Wenhao left the armory and entered the palace to see the Empress Dowager Gao Taotao.

Entering Funing Palace, Gonggong Jiao saw him coming, and hurriedly greeted him, first bowing his hand to congratulate the newlyweds. Du Wenhao laughed twice and asked, "Is the Empress Dowager here?" ”

"In!" Father-in-law Jiao nodded and said, "It's just ......, the Empress Dowager is in a bad mood, and she said that no one wants to see her." ”

Du Wenhao smiled: "What about me? Don't you see it too? ”

"Of course you are an exception, the Empress Dowager can be seen by anyone, you will not be gone. Please come in. The Queen Mother in the flower garden. ”

Du Wenhao stepped into the dormitory and came to the flower garden with a familiar car.

From afar, I saw Gao Tao sitting on the stone fence by the pond, looking at the water. Several palace maids and chamberlains stood with their hands bowed from afar.

Du Wenhao walked behind her, bowed down and said, "Wechen has seen the Empress Dowager. ”

Gao was startled, then turned around happily and looked at him: "You're here!" How are you doing? ”

"Thanks to the blessing of the Queen Mother, it's okay."

Gao Tao turned around and waved to the maids and eunuchs in the distance. Immediately they saluted, turned and exited the garden, and closed the door.

Gao Taotao patted the stone fence beside him: "Come, sit next to me." ”

Du Wenhao sat next to Gao Taotao, hugged her, and the two kissed for a while before separating.

Gao Tao snuggled in his arms, but did not speak.

Du Wenhao said: "I heard that you are in a bad mood, what's wrong?" ”

"Li Chang in the imperial history and Sheng Tao in the imperial history, said that it is wrong for us to commend the generals who fought against the Western Xia, which will encourage the arrogance of the generals and violate the ancestral teachings."

Du Wenhao said angrily: "The people of Yushitai are just full of food and have nothing to do, and they are uncomfortable looking at this and that all day long, as if they are the best in the world." Ignore them.

Gao Tao smiled bitterly: "Just the two of them in the Yushitai, Sima Guang also led a group of old ministers to join in the fun, and also criticized us for raising the generals like this, and also talked about the disarmament of the Xiang army, saying that we spent so much money to buy out the military age of the Xiang army, and we were also responsible for settling them to live, the first emperor had never done this, there is no precedent to follow, this is very inappropriate, and I am required to immediately issue an order to take back the order." ”

Du Wenhao said angrily: "Directly let you take back your life? Depend on! What are these words? They don't take you seriously either! It's just rampant! ”

Gao Tao lowered his head gloomily: "I don't understand military politics in the first place, and after the curtain was lowered, I did so many things." And many of them are contrary to the ancestral teachings, and they naturally look unhappy. ”

"It's not a matter of high unhappiness, it's about the future of the country!" Du Wenhao turned Gao Tao's body over, "You must be resolute at this time!" We have already estimated that we must have resistance to reform, and we must not give in; if the reform of the armed forces is so difficult, then what about the social and economic changes? What kind of resistance will it encounter? Taotao, now is the critical time, your attitude is going to be soft, we will give up all our efforts! ”

Gao Tao raised his eyes to look at her and smiled reluctantly: "Okay!" I'm sad, but I'm not going to back down, it's your idea, and I'm sure it's right! ”

Du Wenhao said happily: "Great, that's it, as long as your attitude is clear, I'll do the rest!" Tell me, who's the most opposed? ”

"What are you going to do in the imperial history,—— Li Chang?"

"I'm going to put little shoes on him!" Du Wenhao sneered, "These guys from Yushitai, when I was still in Chengdu Fulu before, they put me to death because of the White Coat Society and the matter of being in charge of the military. I haven't avenged this revenge yet, and now they are pointing fingers in front of you, if this strange crooked trend is not suppressed, your prestige will not be established, and without the prestige of the supreme leader, it will be very dangerous. We need to build up our prestige through this! ”

"So what to do? You said you were going to put little shoes on them? What do you mean? ”

"Wearing small shoes is to grab braids, just to find trouble with him, our internal intelligence secret service department has just been formed, and it hasn't opened yet, so let's use him to open it!"

Gao Tao said: "In the imperial history, Cheng Li Chang is an old minister of the Three Dynasties, and he is very upright, so it is not easy to catch him." ”

Du Wenhao sneered: "The more high-ranking the official, the less clean the butt!" As the saying goes, catch one by one, some are wronged, one by one, and some slip through the net! Hey, he's a veteran of the Three Dynasties, and after all these years, I don't believe he hasn't made any mistakes! I'm just going to see if my intelligence network is capable of anything. Don't worry, if he really has a clean ass, I will never wrong him! By the way, I also want to check what kind of servant Shi Shengtao, I hope they are as righteous as they say, and their sleeves are clean! ”
