Chapter 257: Before the Southern Tour
After seeing the demonstration of the musket, I realized that the new musket that the Song people were proud of in the legend turned out to be nothing more than that.
However, Wan Yan Jing is not an arbitrary person, and after weighing it in his heart, he still feels that this musket seems to have merit. Therefore, Wan Yanjing decided to let the musket also participate in a hunt to determine whether it was suitable for actual combat.
Two days later, in a hunt, the Daikin version of the musket made its grand debut.
However, it is a pity that the Daikin version of the musket cannot keep up with the prey that is known for its escape, at least in terms of reaction rhythm. Not to mention the rabbit, even if it is to shoot a sheep, when the ignition is combined with a set of procedures, the sheep has already run out of the aiming circle, and after a bang, the wool can't be touched, but the sheep runs faster and more fiercely. At this point, muskets are really incomparable to bows and arrows.
Of course, muskets are not without advantages, for example, in terms of intimidation and repelling prey, they are still immediate. After the prey was injured and clumsy in action, the power of the Daikin version of the musket is also worthy of recognition. But in any case, the actual combat value of the musket is no more than that, this is the unanimous opinion of Wanyan Jing's ministers.
Despite this, as an emperor who is self-disciplined by the Ming monarch, Wan Yan Jing is definitely essentially a "Ha Song" complex, Wan Yan Jing ordered to continue to improve the Dajin version of the musket, over time, the Dajin version of the musket may pass the Song people's musket, or this kind of musket can be used to scare the Mongolian barbarians in the north, Wan Yanjing thought.
At the end of the hunt, Wan Yan Jing was determined in his heart, the Song people were not brave enough, and they wanted to rely on some tricks from the left side door to win Dajin, which seemed to be just wishful thinking. Wan Yan Jing was very happy for a while.
Not long ago, another secret guard said that the emperor of the Song Dynasty, Zhao Tuan, really wanted to tour Taiwan in the south, and some of the reckless generals claimed that they could intercept at sea, send the old emperor of the Song people into the sea to feed the fish, and then destroy the Song Dynasty in one fell swoop.
Of course, Wan Yanjing is not so superficial, Zhao Tuan is already in his twilight years, and the crown prince Zhao Duan is already in his forties, and he has gone to an old emperor, and the Song Dynasty will not have much impact. It is better to rashly intercept and kill the old emperor of the Song Dynasty, it is better to simply start a war with the Song people in a dignified manner! The Great Jin Dynasty will not rely on conspiracy to seek the Song people's country, the conspiracy is not only useless, but harmful, the major events of the Great Jin Dynasty at this time, one is the Yellow River governance, the second is to respect Confucius, advocate the rule of the Ming Dynasty, and the third is to curb the barbarians in the north, at this time to offend the Song people is of course the opposite of the north.
Wan Yan Jing doesn't have to express his position, he has his own courtiers who refute the abrupt arguments of such people. If these reckless warriors of the Dajin Dynasty want to intercept and kill Zhao Tuan at sea, of course, it is impossible to get the consent of the Dajin court. What's more, the Dajin Imperial Court also knows the weight of its own sailors, and it is estimated that it will be sent out to intercept and kill, which is basically to deliver food to the Song people.
"Is that island of Taiwan really attractive? The old emperor of the Song Dynasty actually wanted to go there to see it in the last years of the wind and candles, could it be ------?"
Wan Yanjing couldn't help but think about it, and began to pay attention to the practice of the "special zone" in his heart.
Not to mention how the Jin people viewed Zhao Tuan's southern tour, in fact, although the Great Song Dynasty court attached great importance to the safety of Zhao Tuan's southern tour, the Jin soldiers' sailors were too scum, and wanting to intercept the sailors of the Great Song Dynasty on the sea was basically looking for death, although there were also some preventions, but the court unanimously thought that the Jin people were not to worry, and the Great Song Dynasty and the opposition were pouring more energy into other aspects.
In general, for Zhao Tuan's southern tour, the Great Song Dynasty court was like a great enemy, and it was naturally cautious and cautious in defense, but in other aspects, it was even more fearful.
In order to tour the south, Peng Qinfang concocted two doses of seasickness medicine, and in addition, Mao Geng had to arrange a team to develop a cabin stability system similar to the artillery stability system for Zhao Tuan.
As you know, it is absolutely impossible for this thing to catch up with the high-tech artillery stabilization system, in fact, this is just a larger shock absorption system, but a set of shock absorption springs are installed on the four pillars, you can understand that the shock absorption system of the bus in later generations, there is really no technical content.
Of course, installing such a shock-absorbing system is effective, and Zhao Tuan is not the number one in the halo model, after a short period of adaptive training, a qiē sign shows that the emperor can tour south.
During the period of preparing for the southern tour, Zhao Tuan was not idle.
Under the leadership of Xin Qiji, this year, Minmetals Holdings Exhibition has not been rapid, and the profits can be described as huge, because it involves the money bag of the Great Song Dynasty, Zhao Tuan, who is highly sensitive to finance and economics, is very important, and soon Zhao Tuan summoned Xin Qiji.
Xin Qiji's achievements have been affirmed by Zhao Tuan in person, however, Xin Qiji's plan is undoubtedly too rash, the iron-making plan involves an investment of four million guan, and recruiting shares for the stock market is of course also a way, but Zhao Tuan has always been cautious and cautious about financial matters, recalling the past experience of paper money depreciation and having to stabilize gold and silver, Zhao Tuan felt that the risk of official stocks was difficult to estimate, Zhao Tuan thought about it for a long time, and decided to take a look at the securities of the Special Administrative Region in person before deciding. Besides, after the scale of ironmaking increases, whether the market will be very good or not, it seems that the special zone will be able to help judge it.
So, Zhao Tuan said, why don't Xin Aiqing and I go to the Special Zone together, investigate, and then decide what the next step is?
Since it was the emperor's will, Xin Qiji also happened to be very interested in going to the Special Administrative Region, so he naturally accepted it gladly.
It must be said that Zhao Tuan's vestibular nerve is relatively strong, at least on the West Lake, the artificial turbulence did not make Zhao Tuan feel so uncomfortable, and it is said that the new sea ship built by the Special Administrative Region is more stable than the previous sea ships, and it seems that Zhao Tuan's sea trip is not to worry.
Since there is a comfortable sea boat, Zhao Tuan decided to take a few more courtiers to Taiwan, among which he hand-picked 6 tours, 6 tours as the president of "Xin Bao", as the president of "Xin Bao", to be a royal reporter should have this awareness, but Zhao Tuan let 6 You accompany him, most likely because of Xin Qiji's companionship, Xin Qiji's person sometimes makes people feel a little Jianghu, not as gentle and elegant as 6 You.
At the same time, Peng Qinfang is also in the list that accompanies the southern tour, Peng Qinfang is a member of the imperial doctor, in order to protect Zhao Tuan's health, considering that Peng Qinfang's so-called vestibular nerve decides whether to be seasick, there may be some truth, and the anti-seasickness drugs prescribed seem to have some effect, so it is not surprising that Peng Qinfang was included in the list of accompanying the southern tour.
On the side of the Special Administrative Region, in order to welcome Zhao Tuan's southern tour, some preparations were also made.
Since Zhao Lian learned that the emperor's grandfather was going to tour the south, he was naturally very excited, which at least means that the emperor's grandfather has quite recognized his achievements in the past two years.
In addition to the excitement, Zhao Lian also has ambitions, and he is a little apprehensive in the ambitions.
After Han Yanxuan learned about the emperor's grandfather's southern tour, he planned for himself in private, and some of his words were still very reasonable.
However, Han Yanxuan said that he would use the opportunity of this southern tour to try to squeeze out Zhao Dan, but this matter is very uncertain.
According to Han Yanxuan's speculation, the emperor's grandfather's southern tour may contain the meaning of another crown prince, maybe, but this possibility seems to be unlikely. The crown prince Zhao Dan, that is, his uncle, is now in his forties, and he has been the prince for 20 years, and there is nothing wrong with it, in the Song generation, it is not so easy to abolish the prince who has been a prince for 20 years.
Han Yanxuan also mentioned two other options, one was to strive for the opportunity to lead the army to the north, and the other was to avoid going west to Marunan.
As long as Zhao Tuan reigns for another three or five years, it is not a dream to lead the troops to the Northern Expedition, and when it comes to the tactics of the new army equipped with firearms, those generals in this era may not have such a good idea as Zhao Luan. However, considering that the Great Song Dynasty has always been very strict against the clan's monopoly of military power, Zhao Lian felt that it seemed that it would not be possible to lead the troops to the Northern Expedition.
The emperor's grandfather is going to come to Taiwan on a southern tour in the near future, Zhao Lu felt very entangled, and today he sent someone to find Mao Geng, and then listen to what Mao Geng said.
Mao Geng was discussing electrolysis technology with Gu Yongqiang, and when he saw Zhao Luan's envoy coming, he did not slack off at the moment, and immediately put down a qiē and rushed to Guogong Xingyuan.
When he came to Zhao Lu's study, Zhao Luan was already waiting there a little anxiously.
After Mao Geng sat down on the sand, and his own subordinates served hot tea, Mao Geng glanced at Zhao Luan, and felt that Zhao Luan was a little uncertain today, could there be something wrong!
"Yi Sheng, look, the official family is going to come to the SAR in the near future, how are you prepared?"
Mao Geng is actually not without apprehension in his heart, the emperor's southern tour, it should be a good thing according to reason, but the achievements of the Special Administrative Region seem to be too jealous, Mu Xiu will be destroyed by the forest wind, who knows if Zhao Tuan will also engage in sheep shearing, fattening and killing, there seem to be a lot of such things. Mao Geng was worried about the disaster, so Mao Geng had no choice but to say:
"Guogong, I don't know what the official family's southern tour is about. Guogong should know that he is sincerely afraid, anyway, he has to be careful in many aspects, and after the official family sees it, as long as the official family does not blame it, he will be satisfied. ”
Zhao Yan smiled and comforted:
"Yi Sheng doesn't have to worry, the emperor's grandfather's southern tour this time will definitely reward Yi Sheng."
Zhao Lu didn't have the heart to go around in circles with Mao Geng, so he got straight to the point:
"Please come over to Yi Sheng, just because I have something and I want to hear Yi Sheng's opinion. If I ask the emperor's grandfather to go to Marunan, Yi Sheng thinks that Marunan will be able to develop into a desirable new city in a year or two, just like here in the Special Economic Zone? ”
"Oh, why does the Duke want to go there? Isn't it very good here in Taiwan! ”
"Yi Sheng, I was born in the royal family, I am not an ordinary person, sometimes I can't be careless."
Mao Geng understood what Zhao Lu meant.
Zhao Lian wants to take over the throne, which is basically impossible; If you want to lead the Northern Expedition, it's basically no fun. Zhao Lu had exchanged views with Mao Geng before, and Mao Geng had already tactfully persuaded Zhao Lu not to make unnecessary efforts.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Lian has a new idea today! Do you want to play the sad card in front of Zhao Tuan, and retreat as advance! When you think about it, it's not like it.
Going to Luzon Malunan seems to be a choice, and this is to express your support. Yes, in terms of manpower and material resources, crossing the realm should be able to support Zhao Luan's express exhibition in Marunan, but the focus of the exhibition is here in the Special Economic Zone, and in any case, resources should be concentrated on the Kaohsiung Special Economic Zone. However, according to Zhao Luan's current meaning, shouldn't he go to the Marunan Exhibition with him!
It's a bit tangled. Considering that once Zhao Lian leaves Taiwan, it is not known who will take over as the governor of Taiwan, in case an unreliable person comes to Taiwan to govern, maybe it is really better to follow Zhao Lian to the west.
Thinking of this section, Mao Geng immediately made a positive statement:
"If Guogong goes to Marunan to take charge, Yi Sheng can only support it, please rest assured!" Mao Geng expressed his stance while thinking that he was really miserable, and he had to start from scratch again.
Zhao Lu smiled, raised the teacup in his hand, and said happily:
"Good! Yi Sheng, you are really my good brother! Come on, let's replace wine with tea, to express it. ”
Mao Geng responded happily, and said in his heart, this Guogong is indeed very quick to accept new things, replacing wine with tea is a polite thing for the traversers, who knew that Zhao Lu would use it so quickly! And they call themselves brothers!
