Chapter 108: Sharp Blade

Laizhou is located in the Jiaodong Peninsula, Laizhou is below, and the entire Jiaodong Peninsula is only Dengzhou and Ninghai Prefecture. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info Zhao Yun knew her relationship with Yan Tianwu, and she also knew that she bought a large number of firearms for her. But the court didn't know, and only guessed the relationship, so Zhao Shanxiang said with such a look.

"General Yan captured Laizhou City and used a full seven artillery pieces, and according to the report of the supervising army over there, the Huaxia Army has 3,000 musketeers, and they are extremely brave, dare to ask what is the relationship between the national teacher and General Yan?" Zhao Shanxiang asked cautiously, this matter caused an uproar in the court, but no one dared to say that the national teacher collaborated with the enemy.

"General Yan is Yangzhou City, the girl in my house." When Zhao Shanxiang was in Yangzhou, he went to Zhao Zheng's mansion to visit him several times and bumped into Yan Tianwu. Zhao Zheng is not afraid of any criticism from the imperial court, anyway, he has already obtained Zhao Yun's understanding. I am not afraid of any reckless moves by the Huaxia Army, the vast majority of the middle and low-level officers of the Musket Army are from the Heavenly Dao Army of Baiyun Palace, and they have full control over the musketeers. Yan Tianwu is certainly trustworthy, but the people below her may not have such simple motives.

Zhao Shanxiang was stunned: "It turned out to be her!" The Tang newspaper only said that she was young, but she didn't expect to be so young! Then he glanced at it and sighed: "Since ancient times, heroes have been born as young people, and I have grown so old compared to me." ”

"Is there any criticism from the court?"

"Don't dare, first, the heart of the national teacher, heaven and earth can be learned, we don't dare to speculate, and second, General Yan transported the summer taxes to Lin'an, and once again asked the imperial court to send people to over." Being able to pay taxes to the imperial court, instead of asking for grain and grass, shows that it is sincerely attached, and the speculation added to Zhao Zheng is naturally gone, the national teacher is a clever hand to attribute the land of Shandong to the imperial court, this is a great achievement, what else do you still speculate?

Zhao Zheng nodded, and was generally very happy that Yan Tianwu could know so well: "I sold the firearm to her, and some of the soldiers in the musketeers are from Baiyun Palace, so the imperial court doesn't need to have any worries." ”

"The national teacher is far-sighted, and the Qing minister admires!" Qingchen is Zhao Shanxiang's cousin, to be able to call himself like this, it represents the respect for Zhao Zheng, and the prime minister once "bowed his head to Zhao Zheng" shows that Zhao Zheng's status has made another leap.

Zhao Zheng didn't dare to hold it up: "Don't dare, don't dare, Xianggong is the pillar of the country, Zhao Zheng admires." ”

After Zhao Shanxiang, Li Zhixiao, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, visited him. Seeing that the decisive battle of Jinmeng Erguo was imminent, the imperial court wanted to make more steel to build firearms and railways. So now it is to trouble Zhao Zheng to find mines for the imperial court.

Zhao Zheng saw that there was a reason for the matter, so he agreed, and he didn't count the words before he stopped looking for minerals for the imperial court, and now the imperial court is about to build three railways, which requires a lot of iron, and Zhao Zheng also has to support it with practical actions, and pointed out the Panzhihua iron mine to them.

Three railways, respectively, Lin'an to Jiankangfu, Yangzhou and then extended to the railway between the two Huai, technical support, distance planning is all carried out in the Baiyun Palace, Zhao Zheng naturally knows, this is also to allow the forbidden army of the imperial court to quickly support the actions of the military division in the two Huai area, as soon as the arquebus comes out, the requirements for the courage of the soldiers are reduced, only enough training is needed, the fire rope can be quickly ignited, and the ammunition can be loaded, as long as there are enough firearms, the forbidden army will become an important combat force.

Secondly, the railway can be more efficient to connect goods between the north and the south and promote commerce, and a large part of the income of the Southern Song Dynasty depends on commercial taxes, so it naturally attaches importance to commerce.

The second railway was built in order to connect the Jinghu Theater to the area from Jiangling Prefecture to Xi'an Xiangyang Zaoyang, which was the largest theater in the country, facing the core area and troops of the Jin State, and most of the elite of the Song State were concentrated in Jinghu.

The third is the Guangzhou-Shaozhou railway built by Zhao Zheng in Guangdong, connecting Guangdong and Fujian, with the aim of further developing Guangdong.

After Li Zhixiao's visit, and then a magistrate in Yangzhou asked to see Zhao Kui's letter, Zhao Kui had gained training arquebus recruits in Yangzhou, so he wanted to promote the whole army, but the art of war was taught by Zhao Zheng, so he wanted to ask Zhao Zheng's opinion first.

Zhao Zheng saw Zhao Kui's letter, and an idea gradually formed in his heart. immediately picked up the pen and replied to Zhao Kui with a letter.

Zhao Zheng saw it for two hours before he finished dealing with it, and Ma Shiyong was guarding outside, secretly smacking his tongue, this is really a great Song Dynasty that cannot be without a national teacher for a day. I can't help but worry about my fate again.

――

After the preliminary trial of Huang Miaomiao's lawsuit against Qiu Sanye and Wu Dezhi, further evidence needs to be collected. There is something in Lin'an, Zhao Zheng can't wait here for a long time, but this matter can't be hastily concluded, Huang Miaomiao alone is not enough to complete Zhao Zheng's expectations, Zhao Zheng now needs a sharp knife and a pile of firewood.

Under Zhao Zheng's instructions, the Imperial City Division provided Zhao Zheng with a large amount of information, and Zhao Zheng went door to door according to the information provided, so that those people who had suffered from Huzhou officials would sue them to the government.

With the confidence of the national teacher to come to their door in person, the enthusiasm of the people in Huzhou City was ignited, and they went to Huzhou one after another.

Zhao Shanxiang watched Zhao Zheng's behavior from the other side, did not come forward to dissuade him, nor did he make any suggestions, sue the officials with the people, the court has its own laws, not to mention that he failed to spy on Zhao Zheng's true thoughts from it, so there is no way to dissuade him.

Zhao Zheng saw that the fire in Huzhou had burned, so he returned to Lin'an with Zhao Shanxiang, as long as Zhao Zheng still had this barrel of oil, the fire would never be extinguished, and he was going to Lin'an now to get the sharp knife back.

As for the things committed by Fang Qizhang, as the crimes of Qiu Sanye and his subordinates were revealed, the murder of this kind of heinous person was committed, with the law of the Song Dynasty, considering human feelings, this is to eliminate harm for the people, not only can the death penalty be exempted, maybe they will also be rewarded. Zhao Zheng gave Fang Qizhang a waist card and asked him to take the waist card to Baiyun Palace to find himself afterwards. Facing the first person to fly freely with hot air, Zhao Zheng had the intention of carrying him.

Da Song needs an adventurer.

――

Lin'an, Xuanfu, Zhao Zheng took the initiative to come to the door, for this boring ranking battle, Zhao Zheng has always been urging.

After Xuan Xuan saw Zhao Zheng's famous post, after the mustard in his heart disappeared, he went to the door to greet him quite face-to-face, and the matter was settled.

Xuanyi's mansion has its own bookish atmosphere, Xuanxuan is a native of Qingyuan Mansion (Ningbo), his ancestors are rooted in the south of the Yangtze River, and he is a famous local family.

Zhao Zheng and Xuan Xuan fell to the main table respectively, and Zhao Zheng handed the gift box in his hand to Xuan Xuan: "Huzhou's famous products, some food, taste good, so I brought a copy to Xianggong." ”

Xuan Xuan didn't let the maid in, he personally took the gift and put it away, he is a famous wall-riding faction, he can ride the wall for more than 30 years, and he has never fallen, and he has a good death, this ability to observe words and colors is naturally very strong.

"There is a national teacher! Re-entered the two mansions, the affairs were cumbersome, and I couldn't take care of going to Baiyun Palace to visit and return to the national teacher Haihan. ”

"State affairs are important, it is Zhao Zheng who came to Xianggong first and you should be, the day before yesterday, Zhao Xianggong went to Huzhou to find me and asked me about borrowing from Mongolia, and I said at that time that I would not borrow."

Xuan Xuan was cold there at that time, this was the first time he entered the two mansions to fight with the Shi Party, and all the officials of the imperial court were watching this fight: "What does the national teacher want?" ”

The two did not ventilate in advance, and Zhao Zheng was not to blame for this matter, and in the face of the accusation in Xuan Xuan's words, Zhao Zheng also smiled and left: "I don't know the meaning of the mutual justice in advance, but this borrowing or not borrowing is in the same place, although we lost in borrowing this way, we can make a fuss about the war word." To test whether the Song State's combat strength can cope with the Mongols, the first battle will know. Try to fight Jin first, if you can't even win the Jin country, Mongolia won't think about it. ”

"Let Zhao Kui lead the troops to attack Yingzhou with General Yan!"

Before Zhao Zheng finished speaking, Xuan Xuan hurriedly said: "The Northern Expedition is a big matter, and the national teacher must not ......."

Zhao Zheng gave him a look, just your words and deeds still want to lead the main battle faction, and before you finished speaking, you first rejected this proposal. Yingzhou was controlled by the Jin State, and although the Jin State was already in the shape of a dead country, there were still many officials in the DPRK and China who were still afraid of the Jin State. Xuan Xuan's face was also a little unbearable, and he found a reason for himself and said: "Shi Dang's thief is not dead, this matter will definitely be hindered, and when the time comes, the supply of grain and grass will not be available, and it will suffer a fiasco, and the consequences will be unimaginable!" ”

Zhao Zheng said with a smile: "No matter how much the court calculates, what will be implemented in the end is the favor and actual credit of the official family, the official family has ambitions, we must recognize the general trend, and the dynasty also has this strength." Zhao Kui is my junior brother, if you don't believe him, you have to believe me. You fight too much for the court, and it is not as good as fighting for the court to win a state, and when the time comes, we have the merit of recovering a state, who dares to say that we are defeated? ”

Xuan Xuan also knew that there was no way back, and now he could only believe in the national teacher: "That's okay." ”

"In addition, you also need claws, Liang Chengda did a good job in Guangdong, you can let him come back."

Liang Chengda is Zhao Zheng found the sharp knife, this person has no shame and no position, which is exactly the quality that Zhao Zheng needs at the moment.
