Nanyang, Shangguan Yin Feng's mansion

"Lord, how should we reply to Deng Yu's request?" Jia Fu looked at Shangguan Yin Feng's still carefully reading Deng Yu's documents, and couldn't help asking...

"The city of Zhuangzhou is strong, they have more than 100,000 horses, enough to resist Li Yanqing's army, however, Li Yanqing's resourcefulness is above them, I am worried that Ouyang Qing will not be able to bear the temperament and will rush out of the city to fight Li Yanqing, this is what worries me..."

"So how do we reply?"

Shangguan Yin Feng thought carefully for a moment, and then handed the letter to Jia Fudao: "Tell Deng Yu and Ouyang Qing that they can't hold out, if the army fails, they will immediately return to Nanyang, and Qian Menglong knows how to deal with it..."

"No..."

In the middle of August of the third year of Tianzhu, all 138 members of the first phase of the lecture hall graduated, including Huang Wei, Huang Botao, Murong Xue and other senior officials and their families, in addition to the people who went out to the education department, the rest of the people were evenly distributed to the other five divisions, at the beginning of September, the members of the second phase of the lecture martial arts began to be formally recruited, the number of applicants this time was much more than before the first phase, the chief officer of the sixth division was responsible for early recruitment, and Shangguan Yin Feng was in charge of the final review...

Five days later, the six divisions under the lecture hall recruited a total of more than 1,200 students, that is to say, an average of 200 students in each division, but there are more than 40,000 people who signed up for the recruitment this time.

After the enrollment of students is completed, the opening time of the lecture hall is set for the first day of the ninth month, the first class is taught by Shangguan Yin Feng himself, and the final graduation ceremony is also presided over by Shangguan Yin Feng himself, he is now like the principal, and he will still go to the classroom to teach when he thinks of the rise, and he generally goes to the Machinery Division and the Firearms Division, after all, the manufacture and use of these things are very complicated...

At noon that day, Shangguan Yin Feng, who had had lunch, accompanied by Huang Botao, went to inspect the Firearms Department of the Lecture Hall, and when he walked into the lobby of the Machinery Division, all the students and instructors at each table stood up and bowed to Shangguan Yin Feng: "See the chief instructor..."

The layout of the six divisions is roughly the same, each division has a lobby, there are more than a dozen large tables in the hall, each table is placed with thick paper and the corresponding things of each division, called like a desk, this lobby is also the office, and the rest have warehouses, manufacturing rooms and other places, just an order...

Under the leadership of Huang Botao, Shangguan Yin Feng came to the door of the warehouse of the Firearms Division, took the key to the warehouse in the hands of the deputy director of the Firearms Department, and after opening it, the black arquebuses were neatly placed on the gun racks inside...

"Lord, this gun is divided into five batches, each batch of 200 guns, and now it is the fourth batch of guns, a total of 800 guns, and the fifth batch is being manufactured..."

"Yes, after the first batch of trainees graduated, let them work vigorously, time waits for no one, if you can create another thousand expenditures, it would be great..."Although the arquebus has begun to be manufactured now, the time for each gun to be made is at least three days before and after, and the battle situation on the battlefield in Hebei is changing at any time, and he can't guess when Gongsun Long will call him back to Beijing to report on his work...

"I must do my best to work day and night..."Huang Botao replied respectfully, he also knew that Shangguan Yin Feng said that the more guns, the better...

After visiting the firearms room, Shangguan Yin Feng slowly walked to the manufacturing office of the Firearms Division surrounded by everyone, standing at the door and hearing various sounds from inside, the craftsmen were carefully assembling the arquebus, in order not to disturb them, Shangguan Yin Feng stood at the door for a while, then left the Firearms Division, and went to the Machinery Division...

Now the main attack of the Machinery Division is still the Shenwu cannon, although the production of the cannon is simpler than the gun, but the time is the longest, a cannon takes at least a month, and now the Machinery Division has successfully manufactured a total of twelve Shenwu cannons, far from enough...

"Remember, you must work overtime to make up twenty Shenwu cannons at the beginning of the year, understand?" Shangguan Yin Feng said that there must be 20 cannons, and he originally wanted to have a three-stage artillery bombardment, but because the current time is simply not enough for 30 guns, and even 20 cannons are not enough, so he can only use a two-stage artillery bombardment, which is enough for 20 cannons, to kill and deter the enemy on the battlefield...

"If you are a lowly officer, you must do your best and live up to your mission..."

On the fourth day of December in the third year of Tianzhu, Jinyang fell, the general Kou Sui under the command of the first emperor of the Han Dynasty led the army to successfully attack Jinyang, Wentai and Tuoba Jun led the remnants of the army and was forced to withdraw from Jinyang, even the Wenyang army at the north gate of Jinyang was also attacked by Liu Zhi and the army led by Sai Zun, Wenyang was defeated and retreated, and Wentai and Tuoba Jun retreated from Jinyang forty miles to camp and confront Kou Sui...

The first general of the Han Dynasty was the general Kou Sui, the word Ziyi, the last year of the new dynasty was Shanggu County Gongcao, after the rebellion of Yuan Jingchu in Hebei, he followed Liu Xuan, since Shangguan Yin Feng killed Liu Xiu, Liu Xuan took people to quietly go to Xinzhou, and secretly developed, to the second year of the Heavenly Grant Army, dormant for nearly ten years, it can be said that the salary tasted the courage to...

In history, Kou Sui is the fifth of the twenty-eight generals of Yuntai, and now Liu Xuan's general Liu Zhi is the last one of Yuntai, of course, the first general of Yuntai is Deng Yu who is guarding in Zhuangzhou, but now Deng Yu's military talent has not been shown for the time being, but this Kou Sui and Liu Zhi are very brave...

Coincidentally, in addition to these two people, Liu Xuan's subordinates also had sixteen other people, namely Sai Zun, Jing Dan, Gai Yan, Yao Qi, Geng Chun, Zang Gong, Ma Wu, Liu Long, Ma Cheng, Wang Liang, Chen Jun, Du Mao, Fu Jun, Jian Rong, Pi Tong, and Wan Xuan; In this way, the twenty-eight people of Yuntai will appear except for the ten people in Shangguan Yin Feng's hands...

Shanxi, Xinzhou, the first palace

Above the main hall, there is a middle-aged man with a Chinese character face, wearing a Hanfu dragon robe, this person is Liu Xuan, a descendant of the Western Han Dynasty royal family, and there is a column of military generals and a column of civil officials standing under the hall...

"Your Majesty, the general's capture of Jinyang this time can be said to have shocked the group of young people in the northwest, and the minister thinks that within two years, all the land of the state can be recovered..."

A round-faced middle-aged civil official stood up in line and arched his hand: "Your Majesty, the minister suggested that the emperor move the capital to Jinyang to boost the hearts of the people..."

"What Lord Chen said is that Jinyang is an important military town, the city is high and strong, and it is still the capital of King Zhao of the Cheng Dynasty, if the emperor can move the capital to Jinyang, he will definitely be able to deter his generation..."

The head of the military generals is the general of the conquest, only to hear him say: "Your Majesty, the last general thinks that it is not appropriate to move the capital to Jinyang now, the thief army Wentai now has nearly 150,000 soldiers around Jinyang, although the general has 200,000 troops in Jinyang, but it is really a tired division, it is not suitable for ****, if His Majesty moves the capital to Jinyang at this time, Wentai will definitely send troops to attack, so the last general dares to ask the emperor not to move the capital..."

Liu Xuan nodded thoughtfully, and the words of the sacrifice were completely in line with the current situation: "I also think that the sacrifice general is reasonable, and the matter of moving the capital has been put on hold for the time being, and now I still concentrate my forces to deal with the Xiliang people, and after taking the annexed state, I will attack Luoyang again, my Han dynasty is in Xijing, and Tokyo does not need to stay for a long time, I think I will return to Xijing within ten years to rejuvenate the glory of my Han Dynasty..."

During the Western Han Dynasty, Luoyang was established as the land of Tokyo and included in the scope of Gyeonggi, and Liu Bang built the capital in Chang'an, Xijing, so Chang'an is also the capital of the Western Han Dynasty and the dragon vein of the Western Han Dynasty; Luoyang, Tokyo, was also known as 'Xing In'...

"Your Majesty is far-sighted, the ministers are looking at the rats, long live my emperor..."

"Long live my emperor..."

People who said the wrong thing hurriedly patted their ass, for fear of angering Liu Xuan, and the gains outweighed the losses, of course, the civil officials in ancient times were surprisingly contemptuous of the military attachés, and they felt that the military attachés were inferior, as if the civil official queue now spoke against them for the sacrifice, it can be seen that the civil and military disputes are too complicated...

"Your Majesty, there is one more thing that I want to ask the emperor to decide..."

"What does Aiqing have to say to me?" Liu Xuan raised his hand in the void and signaled that he would be exempt...

"Your Majesty, the land of northern Xinjiang is barren and abnormal, although our army has hundreds of thousands of people, but the grain and grass are very small, the amount of grain and grass assisted by the Wuhuan people and the amount of grain and grass collected in the land of the state is too small, in the long run, the last general is worried that our army will not last until next year's autumn harvest, this matter is very important, please think twice..."

Liu Xuan knew very well that the land of Bingzhou was on the edge of northern Xinjiang, close to the grassland and desert, and the grain harvest could not be compared with that of Guannei, and it had hundreds of thousands of troops, so it could not be maintained for a long time, otherwise once the grain was cut off, let alone returning to Xijing Chang'an, Jinyang would be saved...
