Chapter 125: Chaos

Hearing that I, the emperor, rewarded them, Gong Yi naturally and Ling Zhen were very excited to kneel down to me and thank him, Gong Yi naturally even cried excitedly, everything is inferior, only the conservative thinking of reading high is unacceptable, although the craftsmen who govern the country are among the scholars, but the common problem of the kind of scholars who look down on others, I really have to change them, for example, I am promoted to the two of them as barons, I just want to tell all the people in the world that the craftsmen who govern the country among the scholars, although they are the pillars of the country, But without these scientific craftsmen who are proficient in strange skills and ingenuity as the foundation of the pillars, how can you stand up to the sky, and if there are no farmers and traders who you look down upon, who are engaged in the production of food and the circulation of daily necessities, how can you have the strength to rise to the sky?

Therefore, my main purpose today is to tell the world that no one can do without anyone in this world, and anyone can be promoted to the rank of lord with their own ability

Then I told them the principle of the kerosene lighter, and drew a simple schematic diagram for them, and just as I wanted to continue with the two of them, Tie Hu, who had just left the imperial study, came to the imperial book with a pale face without waiting for anyone to report

"Your Majesty, urgent military situation, please Your Majesty hold back left and right!"

Judging from Tie Hu's appearance, it should be an extremely important event, to be honest, Tie Hu has followed me faithfully over the years, and I have never seen him with such a panicked face

I turned my head to Gong Yi and Ling Zhen and said, "Okay, let's talk about it here today, two Aiqing, after you go back, you will start to study this device immediately, and install this device on the artillery as soon as possible, okay, you two retreat." ”

"The ministers are retiring, long live my emperor, long live, long live."

When the two of them left the imperial study, I also waved my hand to let all the little eunuchs and palace maids who were waiting in the imperial study withdraw, and let Xiaodouzi stand outside the door to guard, and no one was allowed to approach

"Well, let's talk about it, what is it that alarms you so much."

"Back to Your Majesty, the minister has just received information that the Cai clan of Fujian and the Fan clan of Shandong have fornicated with the Jin State of Liao, and a lot of the intelligence of our country has been obtained by the Jin State of Liao, and according to the news sent back by the spies lurking in Goryeo and Fuso, the Fan and Cai have already contacted the two countries, saying that they are willing to give each other the land after the matter is completed." Iron Tiger said to me with a blushing face

"What?" I can't imagine that I killed Cai Jing and Fan Chunren in a hot brain back then, and I didn't succeed in assassinating me in Shandong, and the two of them actually joined forces to make such a mess for me, alas, now that I think about it, it was really too inconsiderate to cut Cai Jing and Fan Chunren back then, but I have never regretted it, hum, collaborating with the enemy and treason, which just gave me a reason to clean them up

"Did both of them flee? Do you know we've sneaned about them? I asked Tiehudao

"Both of them are safe now, and they don't know that we've detected these things."

I immediately shouted to Xiaodouzi outside the door: "Xiaodouzi, immediately pass Zhou Dong, Liu Shihai, Gongyi Nature, Ling Zhen, Lu Junyi, Lin Chong, Zheng Junyan, Chu Luli, Wu Yong, come to the imperial study to discuss matters." I said to Little Bean

"The slave obeys." Xiaodou immediately took the order and left

"Tiehu, secretly scout them, after confirming that they have no hidden secret passages, quickly and secretly arrest these two families, don't leave a single living thing, take them all away." My voice was calm, calm to the point of emptiness, without any color, mechanical, like a black and white photograph

"What are the dynamics between Jinliao and Jinliao?" I continued to ask Tiehu

"The two countries have a complete truce, and signed an alliance treaty, began to prepare for war against our country, the two countries have gathered a total of 200,000 troops, and have begun to all to Hebei East Road, Hebei West Road, Hedong Road three ways to press." Iron Tiger replied

The two countries have only gathered 200,000 troops in total? It seems that the war between the two countries was very fierce at that time, otherwise the Khitan and Jurchen, no matter how small the population is, it is impossible to form an army of 200,000 people with the strength of the two countries

At the time of the incense stick (about half an hour), all the ministers I named arrived at the imperial study

I didn't talk to them in the vernacular, but said to them directly and straight to the point: "Fujian Cai's, Shandong Fan's, and Liao's Jinguo, resulting in China's weak Liao's weak Jin plan was known by Jinliao and Liao, and the two countries have also ceased war, and have fully transferred to the preparation for war against our country, and the two countries have just ceased war, and there is almost no need to gather troops, prepare grain and grass, etc., you can directly attack our country's border areas, and Fan's and Cai's also contacted Goryeo and Fusang at the same time, and promised to pay each other with their land, and the current situation is for us, Time is ticking, but I have confidence in you. The Ministry of War, first of all, talk about the current state of the armed forces in the northern region of our country. ”

Zhou Tong stepped forward and replied: "Long live, the current focus of our country's military strength, after the conquest of Western Xia, has been placed in the north, General Hu Yanzhuo trained a total of more than 30,000 ironclad chain horse heavy cavalry on the Hetao South Road, a total of 20,000 ordinary heavy cavalry, a total of more than 50,000 light cavalry, 10,000 infantry sword and shield hands, 10,000 mountain formation heavy infantry, 10,000 spearmen, 10,000 long knife hands, and the Izumo cavalry trained by Hua Rong is a total of 20,000, but Chu Yun's cavalry has just become an army, and its combat power is relatively low. There were 300,000 horse infantry troops in the camp of the forbidden army in the Gyeonggi area, including 30,000 heavy cavalry, 70,000 light cavalry, and 20,000 ghost light cavalry trained by Zhang Qing. 20,000 crossbowmen, 50,000 artillerymen, 50,000 mountain hoplites, 30,000 sword and shield men, 10,000 spearmen, and 20,000 long knife men. In Shandong, Hebei, and Shanxi, there were 300,000 soldiers of the forbidden army, 100,000 cavalry troops, and 200,000 infantry troops. At present, our army is well-equipped and has sufficient grain and grass. ”

"The Shandong Army cannot be used for the time being, the influence of the Shandong paradigm is too widespread, even if I have replaced all the senior generals in the entire Shandong army, I am still worried about the influence of the Fan clan on the Shandong army." I said helplessly

"Your Majesty, in order not to let the influence of the Fan clan disturb the military morale of the entire Shandong army, we must secretly control the entire Fan clan and stabilize the Shandong army with lightning speed, otherwise, our country will become more passive. Moreover, while controlling the entire Fan clan, we also have to arrest the Cai clan in Fujian with great fanfare, and it is best to have a few leaders of the Fan clan in Shandong at the scene of the arrest, and the two of them will turn against each other and let them eat dog, which will be extremely beneficial to His Majesty. Chu Luli said. The theory of the vertical and horizontal family is really good, even the horizontal and vertical, follow the trend, and use the strength to fight

"How do we need to convince the Van executives." Liu Shihai asked

"We don't need to convince them, don't they all have wives and children, hehehe." Chu Luli said with a sinister smile

"Not only that, but in the whole territory of Shandong, the Fan family only has a high reputation among those scholars who believe in them, and there are also many scholars who don't believe in them. Wu Yong also stood up and said

"Tiehu, spread the news of Fan's and Cai's collaboration with the enemy, and spread the news of the Cai family in more detail, secretly control the Fan family, and they are not allowed to contact the outside world, and choose who will show up in front of the Cai family, just choose Fan Zhengping, tell him that after the matter is completed, he will be the patriarch of the Fan family, and after dealing with it, arrest the Cai family and let them testify against each other." I said to Iron Tiger

"Yes, the end will be done." Iron Tiger said with his fists clenched

"Liu Shihai, prepare all the food and grass needed by the army as quickly as possible, there must be no mistake, I don't want to fight on the front line uh, the soldiers of the empire will go hungry."

"Your Majesty, rest assured, even if the minister gives up this life, he will definitely prepare the food and grass for all the troops."

"Zheng Junyan, the Ministry of Rites, informed the world of the crimes of the Fan clan in Shandong and the Cai clan in Fujian, they don't want to use the power of other countries to destroy their own country and nation, then I will ruin their reputation."

"Obey."

"Feng Lu Junyi is the general manager of the march of the Eastern Route Army, Shi Wengong is the deputy commander, Jin Guiyong, the Taishou of the Daimyo Mansion, is the head of the rear army, and the commander of 100,000 troops is the head of the Jin State, and the Taishou of the Yan Mansion is the head of the march of the West Route Army, Hu Yanzhuo is the deputy commander, and the commander of the rear army is the head of the rear army, and the commander of 100,000 troops is to go to the Liao State, and order, Hua Wolf and the ghost cavalry immediately enter the Jin State and the Liao State in batches to carry out early force reconnaissance, sabotage, and beheading of the senior generals of the two countries, and all the high-ranking officials of the Jin and Liao countries, even including their emperors, are the target of assassination. The Ministry of Armament deploys troops and the allocation of armed equipment, the household department, all military supplies of grain and grass must be sufficient, the Ordnance Division, all artillery ammunition, weapons and armor, must ensure that the military supplies are sufficient, appoint Chu Luli as the commander of the Western Route Army, Wu Yong as the commander of the East Route Army, the military department, send an edict to Yue Fei and the Dengzhou Naval Division, order the East China Sea Fleet and the Dengzhou Naval Division to blockade the Goryeo and Fuso sea borders, as long as the people from the two countries go to sea, whether it is the army or the fishermen, all are wiped out, I will only give you four days to prepare. ”

"The ministers obey."

"The rules of war and plunder will not change." I said this suddenly, and although these ministers had expected it, when they heard me say this, their eyes immediately burst into a great light

"Tiehu, among all the things, your CIA's task is the most important, Shandong Fan's, Fujian Cai's, all assets except people, the CIA will keep 30%, this is my reward for you." I said to Iron Tiger.

"Ministers and all the personnel of the CIA, thank the emperor for rewarding." Tiehu listened to my words and knelt down excitedly and thanked him and said, don't underestimate the thirty percent wealth of these two families, each of them is rich and rival the country, and this thirty percent of the wealth is enough for all the CIA spies to live without food and clothing until the next life
