Chapter 320: The Death of the Great Song Dynasty

Wu Shaogang proposed the method of artillery casting, should be the most primitive method of forging in the hands, but also the most stupid method, in this era, and only use such a method, those so-called machine tools and stamping equipment, there is no such thing at all, if these concepts are proposed, I am afraid that everyone really thinks he is a god. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Fortunately, it is not very valuable in terms of manpower, and it does not need to be calculated too much.

When Wu Shaogang was a special forces instructor, when he was teaching special forces, he taught this knowledge, but he didn't think that he would actually use it now.

With such a method of casting artillery, it is a miracle that more than five cannons can be made every month.

Of course, Wu Shaogang has other ways in this regard, the production technology is limited, and you can think of a way from the process aspect, when the artillery was cast at the end of the Ming Dynasty, no one understood what assembly line production was at that time, a leading craftsman with a group of people, responsible for manufacturing an artillery, from the gun body to the gun carriage, all done to the end, I don't know how much time was delayed, and everyone was separated, according to each step, each responsible for a piece, with a fixed technology as the standard to produce wholeheartedly, refining wrought iron specialized iron, The efficiency of the specially cast cannon body is many times higher.

As long as he can build the first qualified artillery, Wu Shaogang is confident that he will be able to build more than ten guns per month.

No one dares to imagine what kind of shock and what kind of effect will be achieved if a combination of cavalry, infantry and artillery is adopted in battle with more than 1,000 artillery pieces.

This is what Wu Shaogang is looking forward to.

At the end of April, Li Tingzhi's letter came.

The Mongol Tatars had already evacuated the two Huai and crossed the Huai River.

The two Huai's subordinate provinces, such as Haozhou, Luzhou, Chuzhou, Guangzhou, and Anfeng, suffered tragic slaughter.

Nearly half a year, the Mongolian Tartars plundered in many places in the two Huai, such as entering the realm of no one, broke through 34 cities, plundered countless treasures, killed countless people, during the Zhenjiang Imperial Army and Chizhou Imperial Army had fought with the Mongolian Tartars, but all ended in failure, successively defeated in the Mongolian Tartars under the hands of Lu Wende, Fan Wenhu and Xia Gui and others, Fan Sheng, Zhang Lin, Xing, Gao Di and others were killed, you must know that these people are the great generals of the Great Song Dynasty.

In the end, the army of the three divisions in front of the palace did not dispatch, and when the Mongolian Tartars were ravaging in Lianghuai, they were once ready to march south, which made the court panic, and they did not dare to send the army of the three divisions in front of the palace to defend against the enemy.

At the end of the letter, Li Tingzhi told Wu Shaogang that the Duke of Wei seemed to have a lot of opinions about him Wu Shaogang.

Sichuan quickly pacified the invading Mongol Tatars, and should have sent a large army to aid Lianghuai, but Wu Shaogang did not do this, and still ordered the imperial armies of Hezhou, Xingyuanfu and Chizhou to hold Sichuan and Yunnan, and in the process, the Yamen also recommended a large number of officials to serve in Sichuan and Yunnan, which made Jia Yidao and the imperial court very unhappy.

Of course, no one in the imperial court impeached Wu Shaogang, after all, Wu Shaogang defeated the Mongol Tatars who invaded Sichuan and won the battle.

Of course, the two armies sent by Mongolia are completely different in strength, the Mongolian Tatars who invaded Lianghuai were led by the Mongolian prince Habichi, and the head of ten thousand households, Batuer, was the deputy marshal, and the Mongolian Tatars who invaded Sichuan were led by Zhang Rou and mainly composed of new annexed troops.

However, the DPRK and China will not give much consideration to these realities when it comes to who will be able to win the war.

In his letter, Li Tingzhi reminded Wu Shaogang that he must pay attention to the movements of the DPRK and the Central Committee and not take it too lightly.

Not long after Li Tingzhi's letter arrived, a lot of information from the capital was also sent, among which the intelligence of the fourth master played the greatest role.

The information of the fourth master confirmed Wu Shaogang's judgment, the new emperor Zhao Yu thinks about eating, drinking and having fun all day long, as for national politics, he has never considered it, and Jia Yidao's power has reached an unprecedented peak.

In the information of the fourth master, there was one thing that specifically illustrated the great power of Jia Nidao.

After Zhao Yu ascended the throne, at the beginning of the new year, in the Xianchun era, a sacrificial ceremony must be held.

Before the sacrificial ceremony, the sky suddenly rained heavily, resulting in the sacrificial ceremony had to be postponed, the palace in charge of the horse team was Zhao Yu's favored Hu Guifei's father Hu Xianzu, Hu Xianzu saw the heavy rain for a while, so he wanted to go back to the palace, so he asked Zhao Yu to leave, Zhao Yu was also honest, did not dare to leave, because Jia Nidao had not spoken, so Hu Xianzu lied and said that Jia Nidao had allowed, hearing Hu Xianzu say so, Zhao Yu left.

After the heavy rain stopped, Jia Rudao greeted the emperor to preside over the sacrificial ceremony, who knew that the emperor had returned to the palace.

Jia Rudao, who was furious, immediately rushed to the palace, was furious, and insisted on resigning.

This time, Zhao Yu panicked, came out in person to save Jia Rudao, and begged bitterly, and shed tears.

Of course, Jia Yidao will not easily agree, he will not go to the court for several days in the mansion, and he will only ask about the affairs of the court, and the other ministers of civil and military affairs will not dare to come forward at all, nor will they dare to deal with any government affairs.

In desperation, Zhao Yu dismissed Hu Xianzu from his official position, sent Hu Guifei to the temple to be punished as a nun in tears, and specially sent the middle officials in the palace to apologize to Jia Rudao.

Under such circumstances, Jia Rudao returned to the court with satisfaction and began to act in government affairs.

This information made Wu Shaogang dumbfounded, he had seen this matter in the records of the history books, but he didn't particularly believe it, mainly because he didn't believe that Zhao Yu had been in the bag to such an extent, and now it seems to be true.

Jia Rudao's authoritarianism was also something that Wu Shaogang did not expect.

After so many years, Wu Shaogang has long not fully believed in the records of the history books, when looking at Jia Nidao this person, he thought of the Gongtian Law, as well as the Jingjie Push and Row Law, it should be said that Jia Nidao implemented these policies, the purpose is still to maintain the Song Dynasty, do not want the court to collapse, especially in the process of implementing the Gongtian Law, offended some powerful people, will undoubtedly suffer from the calculations of these people, leaving a bad reputation in history.

Let's just say that at the beginning of the peace negotiation between Jia Nidao and Kublai Khan, there was also the helplessness forced by the actual situation, the Song army was not the opponent of the Mongol army, if Kublai Khan insisted on attacking, I am afraid that the capital is really in danger.

However, once a person is in power, without any supervision, there will be problems to a large extent, unless the person has a strong will and constant perseverance.

None of this is what Jia Rudao has.

Jia Nidao was born to a concubine, he has no status in the family, and he also encountered ups and downs when he was a child, it is precisely because of his low status that Jia Nidao has learned to be tactful, learned to see and listen to all directions, and learned to be exquisite.

It is really difficult to predict what a person from such a background will do after taking control of the court situation, or even directly controlling the emperor.

Wu Shaogang already knew Jia Yidao's preferences from the other information provided by the fourth master.

Jia Rudao not only likes beautiful girls, there are a bunch of beautiful women at home all the time, but also likes to gamble, and there are often gamblers in and out of his mansion, and even these gamblers are more casual than the ministers of the court.

It is human nature to seek pleasure the most, if there is such an opportunity, Wu Shaogang is also willing to have a good debauchery, but you have to see when it is, and it depends on what your identity is.

Jia Xiangdao is a Taishi, Pingzhang military affairs, Zuo Chengxiang, privy envoy, and was even made the Duke of Wei, and his responsibilities are unparalleled, and he has won the emperor's unparalleled trust and dependence, in this case, he must do his duty well and set an example for the Chinese military minister, but Jia Xiangdao actually behaved like this, I have to say that it is disappointing.

Strictly speaking, Jia Rudao's performance in the court is beneficial to Wu Shaogang, through these years, Wu Shaogang has discovered that the people of the Great Song Dynasty are not as recorded in the history books, blindly supporting the Zhao family's world, the people are more concerned about whether they can eat and clothe, whether they can live a peaceful life, as for who is the emperor, they don't have much to do with them, and those who read, most of them are linked to their own interests and royal interests, like Wen Tianxiang, there are still too few.

Even Lu Xiufu, one of the three heroes of the late Song Dynasty, didn't he come to Wu Shaogang's side and do things conscientiously.

In the wing, Hao Jing and Liu Bingzhong read the information from the capital.

Wu Shaogang looked at the two, sighed softly, and spoke.

"Mr. Hao, Mr. Liu, you have read these documents, I don't know how it feels, I feel cold."

"The imperial court is facing a huge threat from the Mongolian Tatars, the two Huai have suffered from poison, the people are worse than dead, and they can't get the protection of the army, but at this time, there are so many things in the court, it's simply despicable, I don't think about how to fight the Mongolian Tatars, I don't think about how to let the people live a peaceful and prosperous life, I always think about my own power, such a court, what hope is there."

"The emperor ascended the throne, I didn't go to the capital, because there were too many things in Sichuan and Yunnan, I thought that the emperor's accession to the throne would be able to revitalize Chaogang, at least let the upper and lower families work together to fight against the Mongolian Tatars, who knows that the emperor doesn't care about these at all, all he thinks about is eating, drinking and having fun, so if it goes on, what hope does the Great Song Dynasty have."

"Heaven is evil, you can still live, you can do your own evil, you can't live, the number of the Great Song Dynasty is about to run out."

Speaking of this, Wu Shaogang sighed heavily and slammed the table with his fist.

Hao Jing looked at Liu Bingzhong, turned his head and spoke.

"My lord, my subordinates think that the affairs of the capital do not need to be cared about so much, and doing a good job in Sichuan and Yunnan is what adults need to consider."

Liu Bingzhong also spoke.

"My lord, my subordinates think that what Brother Hao said is correct." (To be continued.) )
