That night, Emperor Win Wu called the three divisions.

In line with the complex that good things should be shared with good brothers, the founding emperor and these three brothers who grew up almost in open crotch pants are very hot.

"Come, come, come! Let's take a look! Emperor Ying Wu was very happy, lit five candles, and illuminated his study brightly.

Sanji didn't think there was anything, but as soon as he came in, he saw this candle as a fresh object, which was much stronger than the oil lamp that burned soybean oil, there was no annoying black smoke, there was no choking soybean oil smell, and the lamp was stronger than the oil lamp, it was simply an artifact.

At this time, Emperor Win Wu looked at the shocked old friends and laughed. "Zhao Haikuo made an excerpt, saying that this Li Hang and Li Xiucai have some real skills, the artifact was figured out by him, and he also made these few objects!"

Object?

The three of them looked curiously at the soap on Emperor Yingwu's table, how did this boxy soap look like a big piece of amber.

"Your Majesty, what is this?" Thunder grinned and grabbed the thing, it was as hard as a small brick, and there was nothing special about it.

The other two also curiously took a piece and began to play with it.

Emperor Win Wu looked at a few of his old friends with a smile. "This thing is called soap, which is better than soap, and it can be used for laundry and bathing!"

As he spoke, he clapped his hands, and several palace maids brought three basins.

"Ladies and gentlemen, try it!"

The three of them grabbed the soap suspiciously and put it into the water, and as soon as they entered the water, they felt that the soap, which could only be said to be smooth, became slippery in an instant, as if it was a big loach jumping in their hands.

"Hey, hey, hey!" As soon as Lei Horror exerted his strength, the soap flew out with a bang and landed at the feet of Emperor Win Wu.

And then......

The three people who played the game of picking up soap between the monarchs and ministers were very happy.

But the three of them were surprised, because the water in the basin was very dirty!

"That's a good thing! After washing, it is much more refreshing! Wang Lu nodded secretly, just after washing his hands and face, he had such a feeling, so he went back to bathe and used this thing, I don't know what it felt like.

"Such a divine object is a novelty, what else does Zhao Haikuo have to explain?" Sikong Xiaoying was the most curious.

Emperor Win Wu took out Zhao Haikuo's recital and handed it to the three of them. "You wait to take a good look, this Zhao Haikuo is thoughtful, it's this Li Hang......"

What a greedy boy!

Not to mention that this money alone will cost 40%, and 10% will be taken out as a collective bonus?

Wang Lu is the one with the biggest opinions. "A scholar who doesn't want to get fame knows that he is engaged in this crooked way."

"General Zhao thinks well, this thing is listed as a tribute, and it will be purchased for people in the future, this thing is dedicated to the imperial court, and all the income of the Zhao family is used to build an artifact! Build a workshop in this Donglin port, specially used to build artifacts! ”

Lei Xiao licked his lips, the smell of oil foam on his mouth just after taking a shower was gone, and the whole person felt very refreshed. "This Zhao Haikuo has a good plan, building an armory workshop in Donglin Port, and the stirrups and horseshoes created in the future will naturally be given priority to the border army in his hands."

As Sima was in charge of important military and political affairs, he tasted it all at once.

"That's nature!" Emperor Win Wu unhurriedly handed the second copy to Lei Xiao.

Lao Lei took a look, and his face suddenly changed.

The content recorded in it is almost all the chat records between Zhao Haikuo and Li Hang.

The beginning is that I have been bored recently, chatting with Li Xiucai, remembering that His Majesty ordered the ministers to assess this Li Xiucai's talent, and only then did he lead the topic to the war.

There is a detailed record of the statement about the cavalry.

Why did Li Xiucai respect cavalry so much?

Can you not praise it? Four legs against two legs, both strategically and tactically, is too advantageous! Not to mention, you have more infantry and more cavalry, even if you win, you will kill me at most 1,800 people, but as long as I don't completely surround my men and horses, I will go to replenish these 1,000 800 people, and then resume the battle next year, but if you lose, I am afraid that you will lose 80,000 or 90,000 when your 100,000 soldiers and horses are defeated! Naturally, the cavalry has the advantage and can fight and run, and this is how the nomads on the steppe naturally occupy the advantage! Now it's not like fighting for hegemony with the former country, everyone is still just a village chief with 800 people, but a grand plan to dominate the world, how can it be achieved without cavalry!

At the mention of the village chief's fight, several old officials couldn't help but smile.

Their family is also a big family, but when it comes to grabbing water in a disaster year, it is also the whole family going into battle, and everyone in the village has to come up, which is really a bit similar to the previous time when the nations were fighting for hegemony.

And the grand hegemony of the sword, it is obvious that this horse is a crash.

"Based on the bantam mare with the strongest durability, train a unit specializing in cavalry and archery, the enemy advances and I retreat, the enemy retreats and I advance, the enemy is tired and disturbed, the enemy fights and fights, and goes deep into the grassland to burn and kill and loot, and within three years the scourge of nomadic raids can be quelled, and within thirty years, the grassland barbarians will be called to surrender, and they will automatically move into the Central Plains to be obedient to the people!"

After Wang Lu finished reading it, he looked at Lei Zhen with a shocked expression. It seems to be asking him if it's feasible.

"This method is unheard of and unseen, and it may really work." In the end, he fought a war, Lei Xiao didn't deny it immediately, he just felt that such a practice was too troublesome, not to mention that the enemy advanced and retreated, and where to retreat is a question.

"But what else is there?" Xiao Ying couldn't wait to ask.

"Yes!"

Wang Lu continued to read. "In the past, wars took place in the hinterland, but defensive operations, even if they were victorious, their homes were destroyed, and the losses in the war were too great, in the future wars, we must strive to fight more in the other side's places, and even if we lose, we must burn down their pastures and kill their livestock, so that it will be difficult for them to recover within ten years! With the Great Wall as a defender, you can attack and retreat and defend, and change the weak situation! ”

In fact, this is the so-called Hufu cavalry shooting, Wei Qinghuo went to illness by relying on the big Han hussars composed of cavalry to beat the nomads on the grassland to call Dad.

However, Li Hang was even more vicious.

If you lose, you have to burn the pasture and kill the cattle and sheep, this practice is completely extinct!

"This son has great talent!" Lei Xiao closed his eyes and thought for a long time, and Ai Ai said such a sentence.

On the other side, Wang Lu pouted. "The murderous heart is heavy, and the anger is not as good as a good minister!"

Even Xiao Ying, who rarely spoke, nodded. "Benevolence can govern the world!"

Emperor Win Wu opened his mouth and didn't speak, but that didn't stop him from looking forward to this strange cavalry. "This armory is in order, and all the thunder is to be transferred by you, and the money will be filled with the money from the sale of soap and candles, as they say, and a few skilled old blacksmiths will be sent over. The soap and candles were all listed as tribute, and Li Xiucai was allowed to sell them to make money! Well, in addition, this thing is deeply heartfelt, and I will give you a hundred gold! ”

"Minister, let's do it!" Lei Xiao didn't say a word, and went in a hurry.

Leaving Sikong and Situ in it with wide eyes and staring at each other.

"You two don't have to mind, it's harmless at this time, and you can't do anything to compete with the people." Emperor Win Wu waved his hand, this soap was magical, and he subconsciously felt that this thing should cost a lot of money, not to mention that this candle is also a rare object, I am afraid that it will also cost a lot.

"Back to Your Majesty, this candle minister has seen something similar to it, not to mention the insect wax, Wei Chen also saw a kind of paraffin wax when he was studying in his early years, and it is no different, but I don't know if it will be the same after it is made, if it can be the same, it can be made, but it is also a wonderful thing!" Wang Lu said with a smile.

What does tribute mean?

The meaning of the tribute is how much you need to supply to the emperor every year after you produce, of course, this is for the emperor to give money, as for the rest you can sell, the money you earn is yours, and you don't have to pay taxes!

The most important thing is the last four words, no need to pay taxes!

Emperor Win Wu and Zhao Haikuo both made a common-sense mistake, they felt that something that had not appeared before must be a magical thing, it must be a rare thing, but they didn't know that this thing could be made by a few catties of lard and some caustic soda.
