Chapter 976: Fight it out

Chen Yixing's meaning, although it is safe, seems extremely ambiguous.

He did not seem to object vehemently, but believed that the matter should be cautious, and that it should be determined whether it was feasible or not, rather than being completely afraid of war.

This, of course, has something to do with his temperament.

It also has something to do with the identity he is in.

Since Chen Yixing is now in charge of the affairs of the clan, on the other hand, he is supervising the logistics of the warrior camp.

Now the imperial court wants to build a new army, and he, as a prince, is in charge of the military department, of course, the military department is mainly responsible for the merit examination and logistics management of the entire new army, and he, the supervising military department, is actually the same as Chen Kaizhi back then, it is the clan that assists in certain affairs, plus he is already handy at these things, so to a certain extent, it is not just as simple as assisting, many times, it is Chen Yixing who guides the military department.

Because of the deep relationship with the army, even in the current New Army, many military attaches are originally transferred from the warrior battalion, which means that Chen Yixing knows them very well.

The people who came out of the warrior battalion were different from other officers and soldiers, they were more eager for military exploits, and they were never afraid of battle.

Now the newly established new army, tens of thousands of people have begun to exercise, it has been two months, although it is still very rusty, but the military attachΓ©s and instructors, have all worked out reasonable methods, so although many recruits have joined the new army, many skills have not yet been mastered, but after all, after the new army entered the camp, the drill is extremely harsh, two months of time, enough time to do the ban expressly, and probably maintain the formation of shooting.

What's more, even if the war starts, it will be a few months later, and the new army is full of confidence, and Chen Yixing must not pour cold water on the new army at this time, otherwise, it will ...... You have to be secretly stabbed to death by Xu Jie and others.

On the other hand, in order to ensure the supply of the army, the Jibei Bureau of Fabrication produced a large number of gunguns, artillery and gunpowder, except for these ammunition involving core skills, most of the military supplies were purchased from the workshops in Jibei.

For example, the water bottles used in the army, the water barriers of the Forces nouvelles, the tents, the medicines, the uniforms and boots, and the belts of the armed forces.

Since the establishment of the New Army, many of the workshops that have received orders have been working almost day and night, and all of them are in good spirits.

Many merchants, with the annual amount of military spending, earned a lot of silver, from the upstream to the downstream, including the manufacture of ships, the profit of large commercial houses, nearly 100.

Everyone understands the truth that when a cannon goes off, there are ten thousand taels of gold, but now, this gold is made by countless big trading houses.

Therefore, among the merchants, the desire to go west is also extremely strong.

Many businessmen have their own printing workshops.

Originally, these printing workshops mostly produced some idle books or recorded some current texts, but in Jibei, many people were also willing to read them, which became the entertainment of the great glowing yin.

However, because of the wishes of the merchants, even many current publications, it seems that there are some signs of encouraging the Western Expedition, and after many people have read it, in Jibei, such wishes from top to bottom, the desire for the Western Expedition has begun to become more and more intense.

As far as Chen Yishou is concerned, he is now a cabinet scholar after all, and he has an overview of the military and political affairs of various states in the world. However, Chen Yixing relied more on Jibei and considered it from the perspective of the new army.

This war, to this point, whether it is the merchants and people up and down Jibei, or the officers and soldiers of the new army, the will is so strong, war, it is inevitable, Chen Yixing is alleged, this war is related to the fortune of the country, but also know that this mighty tide is absolutely unstoppable.

He took a deep breath and continued: "The minister thinks that things have to think about the worst outcome, if Your Majesty intends to use troops, you must consider that in the face of the problem of 600,000 Hu people and hundreds of thousands of Xiliang soldiers, then the minister dares to ask Your Majesty, Da Chen, how sure is it that he can win?" If you can't win, then wait, wait until the imperial court has trained 200,000 elite soldiers, and then fight again. ”

Chen Kaizhi nodded, Chen Yixing was already considered the main battle faction, but even if it was the main battle faction, he was still so cautious, obviously, these 600,000 iron horses, plus hundreds of thousands of Xiliang officers and soldiers, were enough to make the hundred officers and soldiers of Da Chen Wenwu chill at this time.

Chen Kaizhi's fingers gently tapped the case, and the sound of knuckles bumping gently echoed in the hall where the needles could be heard.

Everyone looked at Chen Kaizhi cautiously.

Chen Kaizhi's last eyes were fierce: "Xiliang Kingdom colluded with Hu Lu, it is already intolerable by heaven and earth, and I have also issued a national letter before, if at this time, I am silent, then ...... What would you think of me? What will the people think of me? How will the countries of the world view me? ”

"No, I asked these questions, it was definitely not a battle of will, I just wanted to know, when King Wu was defeated, did you ever think that the King of Wu still had hundreds of thousands of soldiers? Or, when Han Gaozu won the world, would he tremble because the king of Chu was strong, and would he not dare to fight with him? I believe that they must be worried, they may even be afraid, they will be timid, but why are they who they are? ”

"This is because the king of Chu is tyrannical, and it is also because the king of Chu slaughtered Guanzhong, and the world looked sideways; Because of this, they stepped forward to bring the world to their hearts, and only then did they achieve great things. ”

"For hundreds of years, the Hu people have violated the borders of our six countries, and they have been killing countless soldiers and civilians, and this feud is also a feud. Now the Xiliang Kingdom colluded with the Hu people, so that the power of the Hu people completely entered the Han land, the Xiliang State Division is shameless to this point, we still sit idly by, and we are still discussing here, whether it is war or peace, whether it is ...... Is there something that doesn't fit? ”

"Xiliang's puppet son of heaven, since he has become the emperor, this ...... It is not tolerated by all countries, I am the son of heaven of Dachen, educated by Confucius and Mencius, and Shuntian should be lucky, in addition to Zhongxing Dachen, I also shoulder the responsibility of defending Confucianism and Taoism and rejuvenating my Han. If you retreat today, then ...... Since then, I have no face to worship my ancestors, and I have no face to see the world. ”

Chen Kaizhi's eyes swept and he took a deep breath: "What Chen Qing's family said is very right, sending troops at this time is very disadvantageous; Uncle Huang is also good, you must be careful and careful, cautious and cautious. But in my opinion, in addition to this, there is another account that has not been calculated clearly. ”

"This account is that the Xihu people have almost unified the desert, and Xiliang is also under its wings, and the national strength is bound to enter its heyday. Won't kill our countless soldiers and civilians? Won't it make us countless blockages in smoke? ”
