Chapter 361: Weapons
Cheng Fang didn't speak, Xu Ming smiled: "General Mao said kind words, the Dongyu is too fierce, the ground is not very peaceful, and we businessmen have no way to do business well, besides, the capture and killing of my Han people is very cruel, and the merchants are also the people of the Ming Dynasty, how can they not have the same hatred for the enemy?" General Mao was ordered to regain the lost land, not afraid of hardships and hardships, it is really admirable, what is worth a little thing, our proprietor will definitely understand, and will not find me, the semicolon shopkeeper to settle accounts. β
"The shopkeeper is so responsible, and the general is also very impressed." Mao Wenlong's face showed a look of emotion, obviously moved by Xu Ming's words.
The attachΓ©s standing beside Mao Wenlong also showed a look of emotion on their faces.
Xu Ming said again: "I am also putting gold on my face, our proprietor has long had something to say, weapons are used for battle arrays, if there is a need, we must take the national righteousness as the priority, if there is no precedent for our proprietor, to be honest, I dare not bear such a heavy responsibility on my body." β
Mao Wenlong nodded slightly, and the people around him also showed a sudden look.
When he was in Liaodong, Mao Wenlong had dealt with Zhang Han for a short time, if it wasn't for Zhang Han, Mao Wenlong might have worried about his life, of course, he might have escaped safely, Zhang Han left a very deep impression on Mao Wenlong at that time!
Now this incident shows that Zhang Han is extraordinary.
Mao Wenlong had already sent someone to inquire about Zhang Han's news, he was just an ordinary guerrilla general with limited connections, but even so, he inquired about a lot of news.
and the Fan family's large-scale business war, won the governor, and the governor died inexplicably after resigning, in Datong and even the entire Xuanda region is the number one big businessman, in Beijing is also very wide-connected, the firm has a strong strength, net worth must be more than one million...... These alone are enough to make people look high, and Mao Wenlong feels that Zhang Han's potential underwater must be far more than what is exposed...... Just the trip to Liaodong back then was weird enough, enough to make people feel Zhang Han's energy, and now he is involved in the counterattack on Dongyu, which makes Mao Wenlong even more unable to touch Zhang Han's veins.
This businessman, who can safely operate in the territory of Dongyu, is like a distinguished guest, and now he is losing money to support himself, a guerrilla general who went to risk a counterattack, what kind of medicine is he selling in his gourd?
At this time, Cheng Fang stepped forward and said, "General Mao, how about going down with your subordinates?" β
"Okay." Mao Wenlong agreed and made a hand called Chengfang to lead the way.
At this time, Mao Wenlong saw Yang San and Yang Yi again, he smiled slightly, and said with a smile: "It turned out to be the hero Yang San." β
Yang San bowed down and said, "How dare the grass people be called a general." β
"Deserved." Mao Wenlong still admires Yang San very much, this person does have the style of chivalry that the ancients said, although he is dry, but the money is scattered, he is not greedy, and he is concerned about state affairs, and he is not a pat home to officials from all over Guangning, but to pick up things that are beneficial to the country to do it, such a person is not jealous, on the contrary, he is also appreciated by officials and generals.
Mao Wenlong said: "Yang San, your group training, if necessary, I can leave a few people to help you train." β
Yang Sanxi said: "If this is the case, I am grateful." β
Mao Wenlong would not have done such a thing originally, his subordinates are very few, one is more expensive than the other, and he is about to travel far away, and the capable subordinates must be with him, but when he saw Yang San in the shop with Yusheng, his heart moved, knowing that the relationship between Yang San and Yusheng was really as close as rumored, in this case, he might as well be a favor, and bury a few nails here by the way, so that he can learn more things in the future.
He Yusheng's semicolon in Guangning is very large, but the manpower has not been many, and the inventory is insufficient, the semicolon is only to show its strength, and there is no more substance because it is mainly an intelligence station, collecting Liaodong intelligence at this stage, and every week there will be the latest information from Guangning to the Sancha River through Ningyuan, then to Shanhaiguan, Yongping Mansion, and then to Jingshi, and then sent to Lizhuang after Wang Faxiang summarized and analyzed, and finally arrived at Zhang Han's hands.
If the previous intelligence department was still very rude, with too many Zhang Han's personal marks and things taken for granted, after several years of actual operation and the development of a lot of talents and actual operation processes, at least in the area of intelligence collection, it has become more and more powerful.
After everyone entered the warehouse, Cheng Fang ordered a few young men to light the candles in the warehouse, the lights gradually flashed, and dozens of packages gradually appeared in front of everyone's eyes.
Xu Ming introduced: "They are all good Qi knives, as well as a small number of long swords, for those who like to use swords, as well as some foot bows, strong crossbows, as well as refined heavy arrows and light arrows, and then there are throwing weapons such as throwing guns and flying axes, and then there are all kinds of trauma medicines for wounds, which are all tried by our proprietor in Datong, which are much better than those used in the army." There is also some salt and honey, salt debridement, honey disinfection, which can prevent wound infection. β
With Xu Ming's introduction, one package after another was opened.
All kinds of weapons glittered in the candlelight, including iron-tired bows and strong crossbows, which were almost categorized, including the cold weapons commonly used in the Ming army.
The only thing lacking was long weapons and firearms, and there were no shields and armor.
Xu Mingdao: "There will be checks along the way, smuggling weapons is a serious crime, and short weapons are easy to say, after all, the people can't help swords, and long weapons really don't dare to carry them." Firearms and armor are also not daring to bring. β
Mao Wenlong had been staring at these weapons just now, as if he was a little boy who saw his beloved toy.
These things in front of him are not only valuable things for him, but also urgently needed and suitable good things!
This is a high-quality product that he doesn't necessarily buy with money, and besides, he doesn't have the money yet!
Mao Wenlong went from his hometown in Zhejiang to Liaodong, from a servant to an officer, and he has not been promoted for many years, in fact, he is a talent with both civil and military skills. And Mao Wenlong only became a garrison when the Dongyu invaded, and then he was the capital division, and finally became a guerrilla general after being appreciated by Wang Huazhen, his foundation is shallow, there is no territory, and there are few people, it is good to maintain the current pattern, and he can't afford it at all now if he wants to equip these sophisticated weapons in front of him.
"Zhang Pan," Mao Wenlong instructed one of his own soldiers, "Take a knife and use it." β
"Yes, sir."
Zhang Pan was a heroic young man who strode forward and took out a Qi knife from an unwrapped package.
The blade of the knife is long, the blade from the bottom to the head appears sharp and narrow, the shape of the Qi knife is similar to the Japanese knife, which is thicker than the Japanese knife, especially the bottom is wider and thicker, so that people are easier to be effective when swinging.
Zhang Pan waved the knife in his hand a few times, he didn't chop anything, but only a few movements made people see that the knife in his hand was indeed a rare boutique.
"My lord, it's a good knife."
Zhang Pan didn't say much, and it was hard to hide the excitement between his eyebrows.
The rest of Mao Wenlong's attachΓ©s also picked up weapons to try their hands, and the more they tried, the more they liked it.
Mao Wenlong said at this time: "Wenlong's trip is thousands of miles away, dangerous and dangerous, and the east is in full swing, although this is its weakness, my heart is also uneasy. With so many things in front of me, I am really sure in my heart. Shopkeeper Xu, thank you for my good life. β
Xu Ming said solemnly: "The general is a dangerous place for the country, if there is anything lacking in the future, whether it is food, weapons, or medicinal materials, we will try to supply it." β
Mao Wenlong said: "After I establish a foothold, calmly recover some places, with land and military salaries, when the time comes, there is really a need, and I will definitely cooperate with you and Yusheng, I will take this oath today, if I violate it, the sky will thunder!" β
After Mao Wenlong left, Yang San said to Xu Ming: "Are these things for General Mao for free?" β
"It's not free." Xu Ming said with a smile: "An ordinary Qi knife also costs eight taels of silver, and the swords and knives forged by Seiko are dozens, some are hundreds of taels, and even have a thousand taels, our swords are not worth hundreds of taels or thousands of taels, and dozens of taels are still worth it." Now it will be all priced at ten taels and one handles, and if it is given away in vain, there is no need to pay it first, and General Mao will pay it back when he has the money. β
Yang San was greatly moved when he heard this, and said solemnly: "Zhang Dongzhu is really Gao Yi, I knew that he was a rare righteous person, otherwise Yang Yi would have died on the grassland a long time ago." It's a misunderstanding, please accept me. β
The things that Mao Wenlong asked someone to move away just now are at least worth more than 10,000 taels, Zhang Han didn't collect the money first, and the price of the goods was also discounted in half, which was simply a free gift in Yang San's opinion.
Mao Wenlong was sent behind enemy lines by Governor Wang Huazhen to open up Liaonan Island from Kuandian to Zhenjiang, and the camera recovered the lost land, although relatively speaking, it was a weak area of Houjin power, but after all, now the area of southern Liaoning, including the island, is also in the hands of the Jurchens, Mao Wenlong can only take more than 200 people from his headquarters to set off, in the eyes of many people, this task is to send death...... With Mao Wenlong's foundation, if this task is thrilling or even profitable, and Liaoxi is full of gates, which turn will he go?
This mission is also to cooperate with Denglai, it is to play a wedge behind Houjin, in the eyes of Wang Huazhen and other senior officials, it is a dispensable idle chess, it is useful to play well, and there is not much loss if it is not good, at most the 200 or so people brought by a guerrilla general are all sent, hundreds of thousands of people died in the Liaodong battlefield, how many soldiers have died, and then a guerrilla and his 200 or so subordinates are not worth mentioning.
If Mao Wenlong died, of course, Zhang Han's investment in this big bet would be directly lost, and Zhang Han might not be able to go to the underworld to find a dead man to ask for money? So in Yang San's view, this is a free gift.
"What happens with Yusheng in the future is my business." Yang San promised: "You and I are two families and one family, and we will work together for Daming." β
"I'm only working for Yusheng." Xu Ming smiled and shook his head, and did not echo Yang San's words.
"Isn't it the same?" Yang San was a little strange and didn't seriously pursue Xu Ming's words.
"Of course it's different." Cheng Fang scolded in his heart, he knew that the difference was too big.
