Chapter 635: Old Fourteen's Little Abacus (1)
The holy decree is very easy, the old man waved his hand, but the war is really going to start but it is not so simple, the 300,000 troops come from the provinces, it takes a lot of time to mobilize, and the preparation of logistics is even more arduous, and the household department is just the collection of grain, although the task is heavy, but in the final analysis, it is quite simple, after all, the court has already had a rule, and it is enough to do it, the possibility of mistakes is really not too big, but the Ministry of Engineering is not so easy, Not only did you have to recruit all kinds of craftsmen for the army, but you also had to make all kinds of weapons and tools for the army, and it is not an exaggeration to say that there are a lot of things.
There are a lot of things and annoying, it's not easy to take care of, but this time is just close to the New Year, and there will be a few days before the New Year, people's hearts are uncertain, nothing is good to arrange, Hongqing is not easy to press, can only put this matter aside, originally planned to make a decision after the New Year, but never thought that the military department obviously did not plan to let Hongqing have a good year, several times to the official document to urge, the requirements are ridiculously high, make Hongqing annoyed, no, early in the morning, Hongqing just sat down in the office, The military department sent a famous man to negotiate again.
"Xiaguan Wukulang knocked to see the prince when he was in the middle of the trust."
Although the salute is respectful, but the face is full of arrogance, not for anything else, just because this is the old fourteen's servant, the white flag person, as early as the old fourteen is still in the elder brother's office, this person is his personal guard, served the old fourteen for nearly twenty years, since the old fourteen arrived in the military department, he will be promoted to the outsider, and now it occupies the most fat shortage of the military department - the arsenal palm print Langzhong, now the old fourteen is gaining power, and the time has risen since the tide, even in the face of Hongqing, known as the "butcher of officialdom". , I was not scared in my heart, and there was obviously arrogance in the voice of the ceremony.
"Excuse me, if there is anything, let's talk about it."
Hongqing didn't have much affection for a villain like Toshi, who was so ambitious, but he didn't want to be more serious with him, so he shouted expressionlessly.
"Thank you for your lord's grace, your subordinates are here on the order of the general Wang, and there is an official letter here, please take a look at the prince."
Hongqing called up, but he didn't say anything polite, so he stood up, turned his hand, and took out an official letter from his wide sleeve, holding it in both hands, seemingly respectful, but in fact, he handed it to Hongqing casually.
"Hmm."
Hongqing silently spoke, and took the official letter casually, but did not open the envelope, just casually rested on the copy, although there was no word, but the intention of expelling customers was already fully revealed.
"Lord Wang, my general Wang You confessed, saying that the military affairs are urgent and must not be delayed, and I also ask the prince to give a reply as soon as possible, so as not to delay the military aircraft."
Although he saw Hongqing's intention to chase away customers, Ke Tuoshi didn't plan to leave like this, but clenched his fists with a proud expression, and put on a posture of pressing on, insisting on forcing Hongqing to give an answer on the spot.
"Hey."
Hongqing can see it, this trust is deliberately to find fault, if it is really more true, it will only lose his own face, with Hongqing's IQ, he will not do such a stupid thing, so he just smiled coldly, did not go to the trust again, but picked up the official letter with a blank face, tore the seal on it, took out the fold from the inside, flipped it over, and immediately frowned.
What the hell does this bastard boy want to do!
The excerpt is very long, the content, and a lot, but in the final analysis, in fact, there is only one thing, that is, an incredible list of weapons needs, if it is really planned according to such a list, it is completely possible to replace all the 300,000 troops with new weapons, obviously, this is an impossible task for the Ministry of Industry to complete at all - the Ministry of Industry did invest in the construction of two new steel plants last year, but they are still under construction, not put into use, the existing production capacity of the Jingshi Iron and Steel Plant is limited, The steel produced every year is only barely enough for the new army and the navy to cast cannons, although in the past three years, the Ministry of Industry has already had some guns and ammunition in the warehouse, but the number is extremely limited, arming an army of 10,000 people may be able to do it, as for the 300,000 army, it is not hopeful at all, even if Hongqing can, can not make such a rice-free cooking, there is no doubt, such a request put forward by the old fourteen is simply a wild talk, which must have a different purpose, It's just that Hongqing couldn't see through what kind of medicine was sold in the old fourteen's gourd for a while.
"Go back and tell your master, there is no possibility of this matter, even if the lawsuit goes to the front of the emperor, it is the same, if there is something, let him discuss it with the king himself, go!"
No matter what the old fourteen wanted to do, when he should express his position, Hongqing would not be the slightest bit ambiguous, and unceremoniously threw the fold in his hand into the arms of the to, and gave the order to expel the guest with a cold voice.
"Lord Wang, this is a military matter, you can't ......"
As soon as he heard Hongqing's words, even if he was in a hurry, his eyes widened, and he wanted to argue with Hongqing.
"Someone, send off!"
Hongqing didn't plan to be serious with Tuo Shi, but he didn't want to fall into his own value, but he didn't put such a small official in his eyes, even if there was such a big general king as the old fourteenth standing behind him, it was the same, and when he saw that he was still talking, he was impatient with the boss, and he didn't give him a chance to finish speaking, so he raised his hand and drank without any emotion.
"To-sama, please!"
As soon as Hongqing drank the order, Li Minxing, who was waiting on the side, didn't dare to slack off, and in a flash, he was already stopped in front of Tuoshi, and with a wave of his hand, he was about to drive people out without saying anything.
"Lord Wang, what you do is really too much, the lower officials are not satisfied, and the lower officials will definitely go to the ......"
Tuo Shi was obviously suspected of deliberately making a big fuss, and in the face of Li Minxing's expulsion, he was not only not afraid, but recklessly issued threatening words.
"Slow, Minxing, buckle the fold in that guy's hand, people, blast out to this king!"
If you don't let go of the threat, you can't let go of the threat, but Hongqing thought of something strange, so she waved her hand and gave the order coldly.
"Wow!"
Since Hongqing gave the order, Li Minxing didn't dare to delay a little, and hurriedly responded, stretched out his left hand, and unceremoniously snatched the fold in Tuoshi's hand, and with a pull of his right hand, he had already lifted the person up with the collar, regardless of how he struggled, he dragged the person out of the office with great toughness, threw it into the patio, and pressed his hand on the hilt of the sword.
"Wait, wait......, hum, we'll see!"
In his early years, he was able to become the personal guard of the old fourteenth, and his skills were good, but compared with Li Minxing's top masters, it was too far away.
"Lord Wang, the excerpt is here."
Since Tuo Shi left with interest, Li Minxing would never see him again, so he just sneered, and went back to Hongqing's office, holding the fold in both hands, and handed it to the copywriter in front of Hongqing.
"Hmm."
Hongqing didn't say much, just said noncommittally, waved his hand, and motioned for Li Minxing to retreat on his own, but he fell into deep thought with a slight frown.
This tastes a little wrong, what does this bastard boy want to do?
For the old fourteen people, Hongqing knows very well, since he knows that this person is by no means an idle person, it seems to be bold, but in fact he is as careful as a hair, he is definitely not a reckless person, and he will not forget the shape because of the current favor, there is no doubt that he will send the time to cause trouble, there must be a different kind of thought, there is no other, the traces of the deliberate trouble before the time are too obvious, if Hongqing really cares about the madness, and forgets to deduct the fold, if the trouble is not good, it will really fall into the old fourteen's plot - not much, When I only need to replace the other official letter prepared in advance for Hongqing, I have seen this book, and then a royal complaint is filed, Hongqing has ten mouths and can't figure it out, so what the consequences, obviously can only be led by the nose of the old fourteen, such a small calculation, with Hongqing's IQ, how can it not be seen, just when it comes to the true intentions of the old fourteen, Hongqing is a little uncontrollable, there is no side, there are too many possibilities, even if Hongqing is wise and deep, it will be difficult to calculate it for a while.
"Lord Wang, the general king is here, saying that he has something important to see you."
Just when Hongqing was pondering, he saw Li Minxing quickly turn out from behind the screen, and grabbed the copywriter in a few big strides, bowed down, and hurriedly reported a sentence.
Yo, hit the dog, and the owner came running? Interesting!
As soon as he heard that the old fourteen was coming, the corners of Hongqing's mouth immediately showed a sneer, but he didn't say anything, nodded indifferently, got up and went outside, and saw the old fourteen turning out from behind the wall with a gloomy face, obviously with some bad intentions.
"The little nephew has seen the fourteenth uncle."
Officialdom has always been a place of respect and humility, even if he has a lot of opinions about the old fourteen in his heart, but the number of courtesies that should be done, Hongqing will definitely not omit, and he has already walked in front of the old fourteen in a few big steps, and he bowed very respectfully.
"I can't afford your gift!"
The old fourteen was obviously on fire, even if Hongqing was impeccable, he didn't buy it, and he snorted angrily.
"Heh, Uncle Fourteen, please inside."
Seeing that the old fourteen made it clear that he was going to find fault, Hongqing's heart was already angry, but he didn't bring it to his face, but smiled gently, stretched out his hand, and made a "please" gesture very respectfully.
