"Mr. Mao, I want to build a thousand cannons, and you put down everything else, and from today on, you will concentrate on making cannons, how about it?"

Zhao Lian had just seen the power of the cannon, and immediately convened his Caotai team in Guogong Xingyuan, and started to mobilize on the matter of building artillery to strengthen the army.

Since the dawn, Jingkang's shame has been pressed in Zhao Li's heart, and after reading the power of the test cannon today, Zhao Li's heart immediately ignited the flame of revenge against Jin Bing.

Han Yanxuan was also called to the Guogong Xingyuan, he was still immersed in the planning of the world's business war map at this time, and when he heard that Mao Geng had made a cannon as a big killer, he was naturally very happy in his heart, but Zhao Yan asked Mao Geng to put down a qiē and concentrate on making cannons, but Han Yanxuan was a little unhappy. Nowadays, the production capacity of all kinds of in-demand commodities is very limited, and Han Yanxuan is still counting on Mao Geng to try his best to increase production capacity!

Although Han Yanxuan was not sure whether the power of the cannon was so powerful, Han Yanxuan had been imperceptibly changing for a period of time, and the temperament of a profiteer had become stronger and stronger, so he immediately thought of a rhetoric:

"Guogong, didn't we have already made a decision before, first the water army, and then the Ma Bu army! Our Northern Expedition, the first step is to build a powerful naval army, and to build a powerful naval army, the first is to build a world-renowned warship, Xia Guan heard that this cannon is just a powerful weapon for the warship, Xia Guan thinks that shipbuilding is at least as important, at least the matter of shipbuilding must not be put down. ”

"Water army first" is indeed Mao Gengti's strategy, which is especially conducive to the exhibition of Taiwan and Song Dynasty sea trade, to seek to become the hegemon of business warfare, at least there must be maritime hegemony as a guarantee, so Han Yanxuan is particularly yearning for building a strong naval army in the Great Song Dynasty. But right now, two inconspicuous whaling ships have been built, and they are not a little bit worse than building a battleship, and if Mao Geng wants to put down shipbuilding and concentrate on building artillery, this point alone doesn't make sense, not to mention that Zhao Lian was still a shipbuilding friend who advocated building warships before today, but suddenly he was fascinated by cannons, and he didn't even care about shipbuilding, which is not scientific!

Zhao Lian nodded, feeling as if he was a little impulsive.

Han Yanxuan struck while the iron was hot:

"Xia Guan thinks that whether it is shipbuilding or artillery, it will cost money, and the money spent is not a little bit, the so-called clever woman is difficult to cook without rice, and Maote can't waste anything other than shipbuilding and artillery. You see, Japanese merchants brought copper, Goryeo transported horses, Champong transported rice, and my Great Song Dynasty merchants transported iron ship by boat, all of which took a fancy to all kinds of sought-after substances in the Special Economic Zone, cement, time watches, glass, glass mirrors, as well as matches, soap, sugar, well, Juneng calcium is also good, Maote has to bother to vigorously improve production capacity, the higher the production capacity, the more money will be earned, and the more various substances will be exchanged, this is good for making guns and ships, isn't it! This is a little foolish opinion of the lower officials, and I also ask the national public to correct it. ”

Han Yanxuan means that sharpening the knife does not mistakenly chop firewood, and it is easy to do it when you make money. Mao Geng smiled secretly in his heart, Han Yanxuan is really plotting his politics in his position, and his appearance is really good.

Zhao Lian Shicai was also on a whim, and now that he heard what Han Yanxuan said, it seems that he was indeed in a hurry.

6 Jiuyuan belonged to the pragmatists, so he took the opportunity to persuade:

"Guogong, the lower official heard Mao Te's say that this cannon still has many imperfections, and it will take time to improve, just like a newly built bicycle, there will inevitably be many problems, and it may fall apart if it is not ridden for two days. On the battlefield, it is a matter of life and death, so you must not be careless! When the battle is approaching, if the cannon does not go off, the consequences are terrible. In the opinion of the following officials, if you want to reach it, you might as well let Maote transform and improve the cannon, and then build it in large quantities. ”

Zhao Lian looked at Guo Xixian again, Guo Xixian was also in a hurry to use the cannon, but the wind direction seemed to have changed at this time, so he followed the trend:

"Guogong, as far as the last general knows, if a bow is well-made, it will take a year. In the past, the Jin soldiers invaded the south, and the king of Qin rose up in various places, and in a hurry, he forcibly ordered the production of the 'Divine Arm Bow', which was completed within a month, and the bows made could not be used. This is a lesson from the past, and please learn from the country! ”

Guo Xixian said that one year to make a bow is quite short, and it is not surprising to make a good bow in two years. A bow needs six kinds of materials: dry, angle, tendon, glue, silk, and lacquer, to make the bow body in winter, polish the bowstring in spring, go through a process down, and then assemble it in autumn, and then assemble it to completion, and then it can be delivered and officially used in actual combat.

Zhao Lian also roughly knew that it was not easy to make a bow, and things were in a hurry, so he was very frustrated at the moment.

Mao Geng saw that Zhao Lian was no longer crazy, but he couldn't bear to hit Zhao Lian's enthusiasm again, so he was relieved:

"Guogong can be relieved, maybe three months later, the cannon matter will be a small success, and half a year later, maybe he can give Guogong a surprise. In short, Guogong only needs to build ships with peace of mind, and there is no need to be in a hurry. In the matter of armaments, Mr. Xiangshan is in charge, and Mr. Xiangshan is also a person who advocates the restoration of weapons, and he will never slack off on the affairs of armaments. Once there is a small achievement, it will be reported to the national government in time. ”

In fact, if it weren't for a heavy rain today, Mao Geng's test firing performance would still have a musket test firing, but it was really not beautiful, and there were many immature muskets, and it might be better to take it out later to surprise Zhao Luan. Well, now that there are 6 Jiuyuan as a shield, it really reduces the pressure on him.

"In addition, I also want to remind the prince that I am afraid that the matter of this cannon will have to be reported to the imperial court, but these two sample cannons are really crude, but it is inconvenient to send them to Lin'an, I am afraid that I will have to build two other decent cannons to send them to Lin'an."

Mao Geng felt that at least the wheels should be installed and equipped with a stationing and retreating device, so that he could do it so-so, otherwise he would be ashamed of the "traverser manufacturing".

Zhao Lu is also a person who loves face very much, lest a similar bicycle falling apart incident be born in front of the emperor's grandfather, and immediately recognized Mao Geng's prudent approach.

Mao Geng also knew that Zhao Lu was only relying on himself for the time being, but after that, he would think of all kinds of tricks, and he had to arrange something for him to worry about.

"Guogong, after the cannon is built, this training artillery, including the use of artillery in naval warfare 6 battles, must have a set of tactics, how to practice new tactics, and who will lead the army, we must also take precautions. Please also consider it in advance! ”

When it comes to such a major event as leading the army, it is also about the amazing power of the weapon, and everyone present except for Zhao Lu felt that it was inconvenient to put their beaks, so Han Yanxuan quickly changed the topic:

"What the prince needs to consider is a big matter, in the opinion of the following officials, the top priority is to quickly load the whaling cannon on the whaling ship, let Jinding's fleet sail quickly, go to Hokkaido, occupy a territory first, and then open whaling, catch whales, and roll in the wealth, it is the right reason."

Zhao Yan patted his head and said suddenly:

"Exactly, this matter cannot be delayed. Mr. Xiangshan, this Hokkaido has been my Huaxia state since ancient times, and I couldn't take care of it in the early years of the Great Song Dynasty, but now everything is ready, just to go to declare the grace of heaven, and at the same time educate the local aborigines. With your talent as Mr. Xiangshan, you might as well write a proclamation, so as to show a little bit of the etiquette of my Heavenly Empire. How is it? ”

Hehe, in addition to showing force, it is also necessary to spread universal values, not bad! This emperor has wisdom. The question is, can you understand the soil there!

6 Jiuyuan's speech was very powerful, his set of "China-Yidi" theoretical system was already very mature, and now I heard that this Hokkaido is actually bigger than Taiwan, and the resources there seem to be richer than Taiwan, of course, the most important thing is that it has long been regarded as the upper country of the Heavenly Empire. For such a place, it is of course incumbent on the Great Song Dynasty to export "benevolence, righteousness, etiquette, wisdom and faith". At that moment, 6 Jiuyuan readily agreed, and he would do his best to draft a Xiongwen, which was announced by Jin Ding and his party to the local aborigines.

As soon as Han Yanxuan saw everyone's interest, he immediately shifted to Hokkaido, and returned to the track he hoped for, and he didn't forget to increase it again:

"Mao Geng, your two cannons, anyway, have to go through actual combat drills, why don't you load them on the ship and go to Hokkaido to practice, and when you come back, you will know what's wrong, what do you think?"

Zhao Lu didn't wait for Mao Geng to reply, and immediately made a decision:

"Since the navy is the priority, it is logical that this cannon is loaded on the warship, and this lord thinks that Lord Han has a very good discussion."

Zhao Luan's role changed quickly, and at this time, he consciously changed his role from the planner of the Northern Expedition back to the warship maker, and installed cannons on the warship, which was really in line with Zhao Luan's heart.

Mao Geng thought about it, the two cannons are cast iron cannons, one cannon has more than 400 catties, it seems too cumbersome for 6 battles, it might as well be loaded on the ship, let them practice their hands, as for how many cannons can be fired, and how much actual combat significance there is, then it doesn't matter so much.

couldn't stand Han Yanxuan and Zhao Luan singing and harmonizing, so they simply did it to the end, in addition to the two whaling cannons, the two cannons were also equipped with Jinding's fleet.

This decision is a bit hasty! It's completely a random decision to make decisions wherever you want to go, and the randomness seems to be a little too big, and it seems to be far from scientific decision-making.

However, it doesn't seem strange that a young self-proclaimed wise emperor, coupled with a domineering man who is keen to be a business overlord, and 6 Jiuyuan, a suspected ideological emancipation person who "my heart is the universe", came up with some creative or somewhat nonsense decisions.

In the face of such a strange combination, it seems that you don't have to be too careful.
