Chapter 131: The Turmoil of the He Clan (13)

He Tengxiao checked the firecracker, and generally speaking, he was quite satisfied with the firecracker, and after putting down the firecracker, He Tengxiao rubbed his hands, feeling that the palm of his hand was a little oily. The weapons manufactured by the Cloud Guam Ordnance Bureau will be smeared with oil to prevent rust.

"The fire gun is four feet long, one-third inch in diameter, and costs four taels of silver. That's exactly 800. Li Jian read like a treasure.

Li Jian is still qualified as the treasurer.

He Tengxiao nodded with satisfaction and said, "In this way, my batch of firecrackers is worth more than three thousand taels. ”

"It's more than three thousand taels! The cost of a firearm given by the imperial court is five taels of silver, and the firecracker produced in Yunguam Island is so good that there is no armory bureau in Liaodong that can compare with it, not to mention a four-tael or five-tael silver, even if it is an eight-tael or two-tael silver, there are people who have broken their heads to buy it. Li Jian was a little excited.

After Li Jian mentioned this, He Tengxiao started the idea of selling arms, which is one of the most lucrative industries. The profits are considerable, but selling arms can only be considered in the future, and He Tengxiao himself feels that these weapons are not enough now, where is the heart to sell them again?

He Tengxiao looked at the spears and spear heads in the other two boxes one by one, and the results were still satisfactory.

With abundant logistics materials as a guarantee, He Tengxiao is confident that he will fight with the Liao army.

The sky is clear and cloudless, standing at the head of Luanguguan City, the scenery within a radius of ten miles is in full view.

Luangu Pass is a pass city from Jinzhou to Fuzhou, the Jinzhou army of He Shihu came out of Shiheyi, after a not very fierce battle, the defenders of Luangu Pass were outnumbered, and the guards of Luangu Pass will open the gate of Luangu Pass to surrender.

The easy victory in the battle of Luanguguan greatly stimulated He Shibao's ambitions, and the combat effectiveness of the Fuzhou soldiers was only like this, without the Xiao Cavalry Battalion, how could He Fangxiong's Fuzhou soldiers be the opponent of the elite Jinzhou soldiers?

There are not many Guancheng military forts south of Fuzhou City, with the Shahe River as the boundary, and the Guancheng military fort south of Luangu Pass still has two fortresses of Nanxinkou and Pangu Fort, as long as you take advantage of the victory to win Nanxinkou and Pangu Fort, there will be no barrier south of Fuzhou, and you will be directly exposed under the Jinzhou Army.

After taking Luangu Pass, He Shibao divided his troops to the north, one route was led by him on the back of Pangu Fort, and after capturing Pangu Fort, he directly crossed the Shahe River to surround Fuzhou, and one route was led by He Shizhong, attacking Beixinkou Wharf, after capturing Beixinkou Wharf, crossing the river and surrounding Fuzhou on his back, and the two armies finally assembled outside Fuzhou City.

After winning the first battle of the division, He Shihu was proud and feasted on the army, as if victory was close at hand, and the position of the head of the He family was beckoning to him.

Fuzhou City, Wu'an Mansion.

He Fangxiong changed into a military attache robe of a second-class general soldier, and a unicorn was embroidered on the patch on his chest. He Fangxiong pressed one hand on the handle of the Yanling knife, shook the cloak, held his head high, and walked into the lobby of the Duchy of Wu'an majestically.

The middle and high-ranking generals of Fuzhou gathered in the lobby of the Duchy of Wu'an to discuss how to deal with the He Shibao rebellion.

When He Shijie was alive, He Fangxiong handed over the military affairs of Fuzhou City to He Shijie to improve He Shijie's ability to handle military affairs. After He Shijie was killed, He Fangxiong had to re-grasp the military affairs, during which He Fangxiong had an opinion that the military affairs of Fuzhou City were entrusted to He Shilong, but He Shilong was helpless and could not support Adou, and He Fangxiong had to deal with military affairs in person while disappointed.

After the end of the Liaodong War in the thirteenth year of Zhenyuan, the generals of Fuzhou City had not gathered so together for a long time.

"The traitor He Shibao has sent troops to the north, and there is news from the front, the Jinzhou army has captured Luangu Pass, and the troops are divided into two routes, one is to the east, and the prince judges that the Jinzhou army to the east will march north after taking Nanxinkou, and the other way is to march directly towards Pangu Fort, and it is expected that after Pangu Fort, it will directly cross the river to attack Fuzhou."

He Fangxiong told the Fuzhou City generals in the lobby about the latest developments of the Jinzhou Army of He Shibao and the Golden State Army. He Fangxiong's face was not shocked, but there were countless undercurrents surging in his heart, but he had dealt with people for decades, and he covered it up very well, and few people could understand his inner world.

What a kind of helplessness and grief to call his son a traitor. Biological father and son are in trouble to the point of fighting each other, is there anything more cruel than this at this time?

"The situation is critical, and my subordinates implore the chief soldier to transfer back the Fuzhou soldiers who sent Gaizhou." An elderly Fuzhou officer suggested, "The current defenders of Fuzhou City are less than 20,000, and the Jinzhou soldiers are going north with great momentum this time, known as the 50,000 army, and the 50,000 army is naturally empty, but it is conservatively estimated that the Jinzhou army on He Shihu's back this time should have about 20,000 to 30,000 troops, and this time He Shibao is desperate, and he must have shaken out all his family background, and these Jinzhou soldiers are all elite." ”

The veteran and serious general emphasized that He Shibao was desperate and fought against the odds, and the combat effectiveness of the Jinzhou Army was strong, and it was necessary to transfer soldiers and horses from Gaizhou to fill the shortcomings of Fuzhou's defensive forces.

"Gaizhou's soldiers must not be transferred." He Fangxiong rejected the general's suggestion.

The Fuzhou generals in the lobby looked at each other, and they were very puzzled by He Fangxiong's veto of sending Gaizhou troops back to Fuzhou to help. Most of the people present had the idea of dispatching the state soldiers to return to the state, and they all believed that this was the most practical and prudent way to deal with it.

"Gaizhou needs to guard against the Huang people, the Liao army and even the Qin army, and the pressure on Gaizhou is much greater than that of Fuzhou, so the princes still dispel the idea of transferring Gaizhou soldiers." He Fangxiong added.

A general who can stand in the lobby of the Duchy of Wu'an and participate in military decision-making is naturally not stupid. Although the children of the He nationality can rely on the identity of the children of the He nationality to seek an official position in the army, the He nationality will not lift a stone to shoot themselves in the foot and promote a large number of fools to become senior generals of the He nationality.

After He Fangxiong broke it, the generals in the hall naturally understood what the pressure faced by Gaizhou was much greater than that of Fuzhou.

"Whether it's the Jinzhou soldiers, the Fuzhou soldiers and the Gaizhou soldiers, in the final analysis, they are all our He family." He Mingye said, "Who doesn't feel sad when it comes to making trouble in the same room?" ”

After He Mingye finished speaking, there was a noisy discussion in the hall, and the generals who were doing it, the generals from the He family accounted for a high proportion. There is nothing to say about letting them fight the Liao army, but this time their enemy is the He Lion and Leopard Jinzhou Army, which is also of the He family, not a barbarian, inhumane, and extremely vicious Liao army.

After all, there will be some softness in dealing with your own family, you will be worried, you will hesitate, and you will even be unable to do it. (To be continued.) )
