Li Xin decided to establish an artillery academy, so he asked Heisenberg to select a site and chose a suitable place to facilitate immediate implementation. Heisenberg, as if he had been prepared, immediately proposed that it would be most appropriate to be in Yang and Wei. It turned out that when Heisenberg was surveying the iron ore, he found some abandoned Zhuangzi west of Yanghewei, which could be used as ready-made houses without having to be rebuilt, which could save a lot of manpower, material resources and time.

Even if Li Xindang agreed, he asked someone to give money, asked for money to give money, and asked Heisenberg to find Qiantai. After all, Qian Tai was responsible for the distribution of confiscated materials at the checkpoints, but Heisenberg spread his hands and said that he and Qian Tai could not cooperate.

Li Xin then remembered that Qian Tai had never looked down on these two red-haired ghosts, and the last time the Tumut Ministry attacked, Qian Tai gave Heisenberg a cold ass, and if Qian Tai transferred all the materials needed by the Artillery Academy in the future, I am afraid that this goods would be indispensable.

Managing people is the most complicated, although Li Xin holds the power of Sanwei, but he can't be tough on everything with these subordinates. After thinking about it for a long time, he decided to personally take charge of the behind-the-scenes work of the Artillery Academy, and also let the officials at all levels of Sanwei see how much he attached importance to the Artillery Academy.

After many details were finalized, Li Xin always felt that something was missing, and after a while, he finally slapped his thigh, wanting Heisenberg to prepare for the establishment of this artillery academy in a proper capacity, and he couldn't say that he would have to give him an official position. Li Xin held dozens of blank notices in his hand, and he could fill in the name and report it to take effect, so he filled in Heisenberg with a stroke of the pen.

Hearing that he had been appointed by Li Xin as the military attache of the Eastern Empire, Heisenberg, who had always been strict, trembled with excitement and gave Li Xin a kneeling salute according to Chinese etiquette. Li Xin was a little uncomfortable, although he was rescued by himself before, but after all, he still held the shelf, and he has always regarded Heisenberg as a staff member.

Now, in order to facilitate the Artillery Academy, he gave and said that he would report a six-grade Qianzong, but he didn't want to arouse his desire to serve. However, Li Xin did not know at this time that it was not as simple as the Han people to confer official positions on Fanbang people, and they had to be approved by the Siyi Pavilion and presented to the cabinet before making a final decision.

Hearing that Heisenberg was awarded the official position of the Eastern Empire, Albert couldn't help but come to Li Xin to become an official, he thought that he and Heisenberg were also friends and partners, if he didn't have an official position in the Eastern Empire, wouldn't he have to bow down and salute when he met?

For the Ming Dynasty, the white-bodied officials had to kneel and bow, and Albert also knew it. If nothing else, just for this, he also has to let Li Xin make himself an official. Although Li Xinzi has dozens of blank notices in his hands, and officials below the fifth rank can fill in them casually, he is still very cautious about conferring officials, and so far there are no more than two people who have been awarded by him, and even his descendant brother Lu Jiu is only a thousand generals of six grades.

But after Li Xin thought about it, he waved Albert's pen again and filled in the total number of positive seven products. Albert didn't know too much about the grade system of the Ming Dynasty, he only knew that he also had the official status of the Eastern Empire, and he didn't care if the rank was lower than Heisenberg, and Heisenberg's status was also much higher than him when he was in his hometown.

Li Xin decided to personally supervise the matter of the Artillery Academy, and early the next morning, he asked Heisenberg to lead the way to the site selection. Halfway through, he met the soldiers who reported from Yang and the Acropolis to the town guard, it was Yang and Wei Zhen's letter from Mao Weizhang, Li Xin opened it and looked at it, and immediately sneered a few times.

Shi Datuo boldly asked, "My lord, why are you angry?" ”

Li Xinling the team continued to hurry, and did not answer Shi Datuo's questions. Mao Weizhang asked him for help, and Xiong Kaiyuan, the prefect of Datong, sent an envoy to Yanghewei to inspect, and this envoy was still an old acquaintance of Li Xin, who was the original Gaoyang County Instructor, and now Datong Mansion sentenced Zhou Jin.

Xiong Kaiyuan sent Zhou Jin to Yang Hewei definitely didn't have a good heart, what kind of medicine was sold in the gourd, and he couldn't guess for a while. But there is another piece of news that also makes Li Xin feel that Zhou Jin's arrival is not unrelated.

That is, Qiu Gong, the son of the former commander of Yang and Wei, and Qiu Liangcun, the current commander of Yang and Wei, miraculously recovered from his illness, and now he has been out of the isolation hospital and has begun to meddle in the affairs of the Wei Si Yamen.

The Qiu family has been in Yang and Wei Jiwei for a long time, and Mao Weizhang has always been less responsible, so naturally he can't bear this huge pressure. Moreover, Lu Jiu, who was originally in charge of assisting him, was transferred out when the Tumut Department attacked the Zhenwei guards, and now he is escorting Huang Yu to Daizhou, and he feels that it is understandable that he is difficult to support alone.

Li Xin pondered for a long time, Qiu Liangcun may not wear the same pants as Xiong Kaiyuan, and Mao Weizhang still has the epidemic prevention picket in his hand, the only armed force in the Yanghe Acropolis. The original Weisu army in the city had long since broken up under the double blow of the Mongols and the plague, and the current picket team was formed by Mao Weizhang with the support of Li Xin, so naturally he would not listen to that Qiu Liangcun. Therefore, the focus of this matter is on military power, as long as Mao Weizhang holds the military power tightly, at least there is room for parry.

Thinking of this, Li Xin immediately stopped at the horse and told Nayang Hewei's messenger to let him leave first.

Looking at the back of the soldier who was moving away from the east, Shi Datuo seemed to sense a hint of danger, and he heard some eyebrows in Li Xin's words just now, did the adults take it for granted? But he was lucky, and the mouth still didn't open.

About ten miles away from Yang and Weixi, there was really an abandoned Zhuangzi, and the people in it thought that they were either fleeing from the military disaster or the plague. Zhuangzi is obviously the courtyard of the wealthy family, the courtyard wall is two zhang high, the gate is also painted with black paint, and there are stone lions sitting in front of the door, but it is very dilapidated, and the walls of the courtyard have even collapsed in a few places. However, this is not a problem, and the broken area can be put back into service after a break.

Li Xin was very satisfied with this place, which was secluded and not far from the Acropolis, so it was a natural good place for the Artillery Academy. When I looked up, I saw two faded big characters engraved on the plaque of the gate, "Heizhuang"!

Shi Datuo pursed his lips, "Heizhuang, tsk, the name of this Zhuangzi is also weird." ”

Heisenberg disagreed, in his opinion, the black color was allusion to the nature of artillery, and it was a slaughter!

Li Xin gave Heisenberg a note that had already been signed and stamped with a large seal.

"If you need money, you can fill it in and find Qiantai to get it!"

Shi Datuo smacked his tongue when he saw it, how much trust this must be, if he changed himself, he would have a lot of money in his hands.

As for the specific matters of the Artillery Academy, let Heisenberg handle it himself, and Li Xin didn't ask. In the meantime, he went to Yanghe Acropolis non-stop.

As soon as Mao Weizhang saw Li Xin arrive, he immediately seemed to have a backbone.

"Oh, my lord is here, with you in charge, the lower officials will have the bottom!"

Li Xin said with a smile: "Mao Zhen is holding Yang and Wei Junzheng in his hands, how can he be so unconfident? ”

Mao Wei smiled bitterly.

"My lord, don't make fun of the lower officials, that Zhou Tong sentenced a person to be a lower official, and now that Qiu is in charge of frugality and has recovered from his illness, the lower officials feel that they are in danger of being set aside."

"Is the picket in Mao Zhenfu's hands eating rice?"

Hearing Li Xin's question, Mao Weizhang looked a little embarrassed.

"After all, the Qiu family has been running Yang Hewei for nearly ten years......"

Li Xin immediately understood his scruples and interrupted him with a sneer.

"You just have to go and do it, I Li Xin will take care of everything for you, I'm afraid that he will be a bird!"

Mao Wei nodded repeatedly.

"Do you want to meet these two?"

Li Xin shook his head, "It's useless to see it at this time, it's better not to see it!" ”

Shi Datuo, who was standing behind Li Xin, interjected: "My lord is the chief soldier of the three guards, how can I take the initiative to meet those three-legged cats, and they will take the initiative to meet them!" ”

"Yes, yes, Qian Tai is not thoughtful, and I hope that Lord Haihan!"

Li Xin glared at Shi Datuo, this thing originally wanted to say something, but he was so frightened that he hurriedly shut up. The reason why he didn't see Zhou Jin and Qiu Liangcun was not for any level of face at all, but because he didn't want to cause trouble at this time, as long as he tightly controlled the pickets, he was not afraid that someone would be able to turn the sky upside down.

Seeing Mao Weizhang's cautious look, Li Xin, who had always been a little worried, calmed down, being old and serious is a necessary condition for keeping the family, if you are looking for a high-profile person, you should be worried!

So, Li Xin gave Mao Weizhang another beating, and left Shi Datuo in Yanghewei, but in the end he was still a little worried that Mao Weizhang would not be able to withstand the pressure.

"Da Tuo, you stay, you want to listen to Lord Mao."

Shi Datuo protested dissatisfiedly, it was naturally good for him to stay, but he was a little angry when he heard that Mao Weizhang, this guy was less courageous than a mouse, even worse than Qian Tai, and his temper was much more stinky than Qian Tai, and he was very bad under his hands, and his life was not easy. But the chief soldier spoke, and he had to agree with it.

After making a stop in the Yanghe Acropolis, Li Xin left the Yanghe Acropolis and hurried north with dozens of personal soldiers. The next stop is Chaoyang Fort along the river, after all, the relocation involves tens of thousands of people, and one can make a mistake if he is not careful, and only he will handle it himself.

Li Xin has been running between the three of them continuously for the past few days, and he has a great feeling of lack of skills and a lack of talents around him. Although there are people like Qian Tai and Mao Weizhang to assist, these two are both talented people, and they have more than enough to defend the city, and it may be inappropriate to entrust them with big things. The matter of Chaoyang Fort must also be solved as much as possible, otherwise the consumption of tens of thousands of people eating horses and chewing a day is amazing, if the output is not exhausted, Sanwei will have to sit and eat sooner or later.

Before dark, Li Xin and his entourage arrived at Chaoyang Fort, and the eleven members of the board of directors greeted them outside the fort gate. Li Xin actually saw the figure of Niu Dan in the front row. How is it? This thing was really elected to the Council of Eleven......
