Chapter 117: The king does not live up to the country, and I live up to the king
Chen Di came out of the Yongshou Palace and came to the Office of the Ministry of War overnight. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ info
In the past two months, more than 500 craftsmen have been divided into two shifts, day and night, and under the leadership of Style Sun, they have stepped up to work on the firearms that Chen Di wanted.
It's midnight, but the workshop is still brightly lit.
Chen Di found Style Sun, and Style Sun's eyes stayed up all night and were red.
Chen Di asked Shi Sun: "So far, how many firearms have been manufactured in the manufacturing office?" β
Style Sun replied: "In the past few months, our craftsmen have been desperate. A total of 1,000 Tiger Guns, 1,000 leech crossbows, 80,000 paper shell shells, 100,000 crossbow arrows, 20,000 grenades, and 30 Furrang machine guns were imitated. β
Chen Di was overjoyed. A thousand tiger guns and a thousand leech crossbows can just arm the remnants of the 1,000 flying tigers who retreated into Suzhou.
Chen Di said: "This batch of firearms must be shipped to Jiangsu immediately. The Japanese have already occupied Zhejiang, and Jiangsu and Nanzhili are now in danger! β
He said: "My lord, you are too old to go into battle to kill the enemy, so you only want to make more firearms in the office to supply the brothers in front. β
Chen Di nodded: "Don't worry, your hard work in the past few months will not be in vain!" I can guarantee that these paper shells, crossbow arrows, cannonballs, and grenades will all be on the pirates. Do not let up after this shipment of firearms. Keep working day and night! β
Style Sun nodded and said, "Old decay understands!" β
This batch of firearms has a bearing on the victory or defeat of the anti-Japanese war in the southeast, and it is necessary to ensure that nothing goes wrong during the transportation process. It is too slow to take the land route, and the best option is to take the water route.
Two days ago, the leader of the Cao Gang, Lu Lao, escorted Jiangsu's spring grain into Beijing, and at this moment he and his Cao boat have not yet left Beijing.
Chen Di immediately sent someone to the inn to find Lu Lao's gang leader. When the old gang leader Lu heard that Chen Di was looking for him, he didn't dare to slack off, and immediately rushed to the construction office of the Ministry of War with his son Lu Yunfei.
When the old gang leader Lu and Lu Yunfei saw Chen Di, they knelt on one knee: "I've seen the master of the horse." β
Chen Di picked up the old gang leader Lu: "Old gang leader Lu, there is a big thing for you to do!" You come with me! β
Chen Di led the old gang leader to see the batch of firearms stored in the arsenal of the manufacturing office. Chen Di asked the old gang leader Lu: "How many ships are needed for this batch of firearms to be shipped to Jiangsu?" Can you Cao Gang do it all by yourself? β
Old Lu Gang Leader made a silent calculation in his heart and replied, "About ten three-masted river boats are needed. We have fifteen ships transporting spring grain, and we can do it! But...... β
Chen Di asked, "What are the difficulties of the old gang leader?" β
Lu Lao's gang leader said: "However, more than a dozen senior officials in the capital have already negotiated with me, and these fifteen ships will transport the special products they have purchased outside the customs to Jiangnan. β
Chen Di said: "You go and tell them, just say that Chen Di has robbed more than a dozen boats!" If they dare to trouble you, you tell me! I'll stand up for you! One of the provinces of Daming has been lost, and they still have the heart to do business! It's sad! β
Lu Lao said: "There is a horse master in charge, I will immediately inform them that I will not ship their goods!"
Chen Di said: "Old Lu gang leader, this batch of firearms is related to the overall situation of the southeast anti-Japanese war!" During the delivery, there can be no mistakes! β
Lu Yunfei patted his chest and replied for his father: "Don't worry! We swear by the lives of tens of thousands of sons and daughters of the Cao Gang, even if we fight for the lives of our brothers, we will ensure that these firearms are safely delivered to Jiangsu! β
Chen Di arched his hand and said, "Then please two of you!" Without further ado, I think I'll ship this batch of firearms tomorrow! β
Lu Lao's gang leader said: "Then I will lead the Cao Gang's foot force brothers in the capital to carry this batch of firearms tomorrow!" When will I leave after loading the ship? β
Chen Di said: "We will set off the day after tomorrow!" I walk with you! β
When Chen Di returned to the Horse Mansion, it was almost dawn.
Princess Xiaoyan didn't sleep all night, waiting for Chen Di in the bedroom.
"Where were you last night?" Princess Xiaoyan asked Chen Di angrily.
Chen Di explained to Princess Xiaoyan: "The Japanese invaders have now occupied the entire territory of Zhejiang!" My father ordered me to be the governor of Zhejiang, and the commander-in-chief of the war against the Japanese in the southeast! I stayed up all night to arrange the transportation of firearms to the south of the office. β
Princess Xiaoyan just thought that Chen Di, the colt, had gone to sleep last night! After listening to Chen Di's words, Princess Xiaoyan turned from anger to worry: "So, you are going to fight in Zhejiang, thousands of miles away?" β
Chen Di said: "The eldest husband should carry a three-foot sword to run rampant in the world, Kuang Fu Sheji, how can he live in the capital and be a comfortable horse?" β
Although Princess Xiaoyan is a woman, she is quite knowledgeable: "Since you went to Zhejiang to fight for the country, I will pray for you with Xiaoqing in the capital day and night!" I only hope that the husband can exterminate the Japanese and return triumphantly as soon as possible! β
Zhejiang's Japanese are known as 100,000, and Chen Di is actually not sure that he will be able to defeat them. Although with this batch of sharp firearms, they can crush the Japanese in terms of equipment, but the number of Japanese is a hundred times that of the remnants of the Flying Tiger!
Chen Di sighed: "Princess, when I go to Zhejiang, the army I can rely on is only more than 1,000 people, but there are 100,000 people in the Japanese Kou, and they must be nine deaths and one life." That's it, Qingshan buries loyal bones everywhere, why should the horse leather shroud be returned! The Ming Dynasty has a system, if the horse dies, the princess can choose a son-in-law to remarry! If I die in battle, please ask the princess to choose another virtuous son-in-law to marry!" β
Princess Xiaoyan's eyes filled with tears: "One thousand against one hundred thousand? In this way, it is auspicious for you to go to Zhejiangγγγγγ Alas, I married you because you are the pillar of the Ming Dynasty, a young man! You don't live up to the country, I don't live up to you! If you die for your country, I will keep your honor for the rest of your life. β
Chen Di took Princess Xiaoyan into his arms: "Princess, you and I have only been married for a few months. Please forgive me for not being able to be with you. You don't see it, the final army of the Han Dynasty, the weak crown is a captive, please be long! Although I have not yet reached the age of weak crown, I am also a man! Now that the country is in danger, I can only be a feather and a feather race! Rest assured, the spirit of the emperor of the Ming Dynasty in the sky will definitely bless me, a concubine, to recover the rivers and mountains of the Ming Dynasty! β
Chen Di and Princess Xiaoyan's words were like parting with life and death.
Princess Xiaoyan said: "Li Qingzhao has a poem that says, he is a hero in life, and he is a ghost in death. Phew, husband, I was wrong, what did I say about life and death? β
Chen Di said: "People are inherently dead, or lighter than a feather, or heavier than Mount Tai. To die for the war of the country is heavier than Mount Tai! But you don't have to worry too much. Don't forget, you all say I'm a young man! When I arrived in Zhejiang, I reorganized the Flying Tiger Army, and relied on my talent to lead troops to fight with the Japanese Invaders, and the outcome was still unknown. β
Princess Xiaoyan burst into tears and said, "Husband! Let me serve you one more time! If the emperor has a spirit in the sky, I hope I can leave you a queen this time. β
After speaking, Princess Xiaoyan took the initiative to kiss Chen Diγγγγγγ
How could Chen Di refuse Princess Xiaoyan? After some clouds and rain, Princess Xiaoyan fell asleep, still muttering: "The king does not live up to the country, I live up to the kingγγγγγγ
