Chapter 622: Beheaded (Three Watches)
Pingwu Marquis Shi Wen chose to retire.
There is no need to spend time with the Liu family, it is meaningless.
At the same time as retiring from the army, Shi Wen decided to report the matter to the imperial court.
It is equivalent to cutting first and then playing.
By the time the imperial court received his notebook, the soldiers and horses of Yuzhou had already retreated for several days and left the battlefield for hundreds of miles.
The courtiers are furious!
Scolding!
Seeing that there were still a few days left for the New Year, Pingwu Hou Shi Wen suddenly came to such a hand, he didn't want people to have a stable New Year.
Rage and impeach him!
Impeachment to death!
Jin Wuwei didn't just care about catching the spies of the Liu family, he had the ability to arrest Shi Wen.
Jin Wuwei: "......"
Give a roll of the eyes and experience it for yourself.
went to catch Shi Wen among thousands of troops, Jin Wuwei is not stupid, and he will not take the initiative to find death.
Besides, Jin Wuwei only obeyed the emperor's orders.
Anything else, it's a fart, and it stinks.
The court is noisy, and every day the court meeting, the opening is Shi Wen, and the closed mouth is also Shi Wen.
Emperor Xiao Chengwen did not stop him, and let the courtiers abuse him.
Always give the courtiers a place to vent.
Besides......
Pingwu Hou Shi Wen should indeed be scolded.
It's okay to retire!
But the program is not right!
Before withdrawing from the army, he should ask the imperial court.
The imperial court issued an official document to allow the troops to retreat, and the soldiers and horses of Yuzhou could withdraw the troops.
Shi Wen is good, just come to the first cut and then play. It is clear that he did not take the court into account.
A typical milk is a mother, and when you are full, you don't recognize your mother!
Bastard!
After arguing for a few days, Emperor Xiao Chengwen issued a decree to reprimand Shi Wen, Marquis of Pingwu, and asked him to petition for guilt.
In any case, there has to be an attitude.
……
Shi Wen, the Marquis of Pingwu, who had successfully returned to Yuzhou, was very disdainful in the face of the emperor's request.
"Let the old man ask for a guilty fold, why! The old man fought on the front line, and for the sake of the face of the court, he did not hesitate to risk his life and personally supervise the war. The rice buckets of the imperial court spent all day drinking in Jianzhou City. Just because the old man decided to withdraw from the army, he didn't say hello in advance, so he asked the old man to ask for guilt, hehe! ”
The strategist reminded, "This is the procedure! The court has always done this, and the Hou Ye will bear with it for the time being. ”
Pingwu Marquis Shi Wen laughed, "The old man has served as the court's presenter, so he naturally knows the procedures of the court, and he also knows that the emperor wants to be faced." However, the old man's heart is unhappy.
Liu Zhang was in the Northland Imperial Court, but Xiao Chengye recognized his identity as the king of Zhenbei. Liu Zhang became the first king with a different surname in the Great Wei Dynasty.
What about Benhou? What did Ben Hou get? Ben Hou's credit is not inferior to Liu Zhang, why should he be inferior to Liu Zhang. Liu Zhang is a prince, Ben Hou is a marquis, this marquis is angry. ”
In the final analysis, Shi Wen was still jealous that Liu Zhang had a prince, but he didn't.
He disliked that Emperor Xiao Chengwen was too stingy and was reluctant to give the military general a knighthood.
Of course, from the emperor's standpoint, giving a king with a different surname will definitely do more harm than good, and this is the way to take trouble.
It is impossible for a normal emperor to take the initiative to open this opening.
In all dynasties, the kings with different surnames were given, and basically nothing came to a good end.
Either the king with a different surname dies.
Either the court will be destroyed!
Either you lose both, and no one wants to get benefits.
All in all, once the thing with a different surname exists, if you want to destroy it, you must break your muscles and bones.
So......
It is impossible for a far-sighted emperor to take the initiative to open this opening.
On the contrary, it is necessary to strictly guard against it and resolutely put an end to the existence of kings with different surnames.
Liu Zhang: That's an outlier.
Xiao Chengye is a puppet.
However, most people in the world do not see this.
Most people only saw Liu Zhang as a king with a different surname, and he was prosperous and beautiful.
also saw Xiao Chengye ascend the throne as emperor, and respected Liu Zhang.
Pingwu Hou Shi Wen does not belong to the majority, he is a minority, and he can see the truth clearly.
However, after all, it is difficult to settle!
In his opinion, the situation is already like this.
It is meaningless to strictly guard against the king with a different surname.
The Southern Wei Dynasty should take the initiative to support a king with a different surname and fight in the ring with the Northern Wei Dynasty.
This candidate for the king with a different surname, who else can he be!
The strategist wanted to persuade again, but Pingwu Hou Shi Wen directly raised his hand to interrupt.
Pingwu Marquis Shi Wen snorted twice, "You don't have to argue with the old man. The old man understands all the truths, better than anyone present. Let's tell you the truth, the old man is not happy, so he wants to block the emperor. The old man is having a hard time, so don't think about it. ”
"It's no good to turn your face with the court."
"But it doesn't hurt much! The big deal is to maintain the previous situation and be at peace with each other. ”
"It is impossible for Liu Zhang to sit still, and when he straightens out the relations between the various places in the north, he will definitely lead the troops south. Don't forget that Liu Zhang shouted the slogan of unifying the north and the south in the text. Look at his battle, it doesn't seem like it's just talking. ”
The strategists quarreled.
"If Liu Zhang leads the troops south, the soldiers and horses of the imperial court are not vegetarians. Moreover, Liangzhou soldiers and horses live in the north all year round, can they adapt to the climate and diet in the south? ”
"Don't care if the soldiers and horses of Liangzhou can adapt to the climate and diet of the south, once Liu Zhang leads the troops south, the first to bear the brunt will be our Yuzhou soldiers and horses."
"And Binh Duong-gun!
"As for the other counties along the way, there is no resistance. Once Liu Zhang goes south, he will definitely be the first to open the door and surrender to greet him. ”
"I heard that the rebuilding of the Northern Army has been quite effective. The emperor invested a lot of money and food in the northern army. It is not known how much combat effectiveness was restored. ”
"A unit that has not been on the battlefield and has fought in a serious battle is a recruit. It doesn't matter how many years he has been a soldier, even if he has been a soldier for ten years, he is always a recruit on the battlefield. So, don't get your hopes up too much for a rebuilt Northern Army. ”
"But I don't think the Northern Army can be underestimated."
"The Northern Army has always maintained drills every two days, and often pulls them out to practice in the field, training with mountain bandits and water bandits. It's already a group of soldiers who have seen blood. So don't imagine the Northern Army too weak. ”
"But don't think too much of the Northern Army. That's it! ”
The strategists were noisy and discussed the situation at the court.
Pingwu Hou Shi Wen didn't say a word, with a straight face, unable to see through the emotions.
The paraffin came in from outside, and when he saw that there were many people, he swallowed the words that came to his lips again.
The strategists were also very knowledgeable and took the initiative to retire.
When only the father and son were left in the study, Shi Wax spoke: "Father, the first batch of ordnance and armor made in Pingyang County has just arrived in the city. The son checked it, and it was all high-quality steel knives, extremely sharp. ”
After saying that, he took a waist knife from his waist and put it on the table.
Pingwu Hou Shiwen took out the steel knife and slashed it with his hand, which was really sharp and hard.
He couldn't put it down and couldn't help but look up to the sky and laugh.
"Yan Yunge didn't deceive the old man, the ordnance made in Pingyang County is really better than the craftsmen of Shaofu."
Shi Wax had a question, "Father, we also have our own blacksmith workshop and our own craftsmen. Our craftsmen can make ordnance and armor, so why spend money to buy it from Binh Duong County? ”
Pingwu Marquis Shi Wen held the steel knife, "This is a weapon made in Pingyang County, how does it compare to the weapon built by our own craftsmen?" ”
Even if Shi Wax is unwilling, he can only tell the truth, "The weapons made in Pingyang County are indeed stronger than the weapons built by our own craftsmen." ”
Pingwu Hou Shi Wen continued: "Not only is the quality better than the weapons we built ourselves, but the price of such a good steel knife is more than ten percent cheaper than the weapons we built ourselves.
If the quantity is large, the price can continue to be compressed, and it can be about 20% cheaper.
Twenty percent, it doesn't sound like much money. However, once thousands of people order weapons from Binh Duong County, they are two percent cheaper, and the money saved is a huge amount of money. ”
Shi Wax still said firmly: "It is true that it can save money, but it has handed over the lifeblood of his family to Pingyang County." The son always believed that weapons should not be purchased from Binh Duong County. ”
Pingwu Marquis Shi Wen laughed, "Your worries are not wrong, but they are still too one-sided. If you don't buy weapons from Binh Duong, how do you know where the gap between the two sides is and how big the gap is.
Weapons are purchased for personal use and for the craftsmen. Since the craftsmen of Pingyang County can make high-quality weapons, there is no reason why our craftsmen in Yuzhou can't make them. ”
"Father means that the craftsman should be asked to imitate the weapon? As far as his son knows, the reason why the weapons made in Binh Duong County are of such good quality and cheap are because they have improved the iron-making process. ”
"Regardless of craftsmanship or not, our craftsmen have to find a way to catch up with this blacksmith workshop in Binh Duong County. Ben Hou also does not want to buy weapons from Binh Duong County for a long time in the future. Weapons such as armor should always be held in your own hands. ”
"Father Takami! Then, the second batch of goods made in Pingyang County, do you still want it? Their people are waiting for us to reply, and if they want, they have to pay a deposit of 30% in advance. ”
"Absolutely! Let them hurry up and send the second batch of ordnance! Money is not the problem, the key is to have good goods. ”
"No! Son, let's go down and negotiate! ”
……
Yan Yunge began to start a weapons business with Wuhou Shi Wen.
The weapons made in Binh Duong County have the best quality and the lowest price, and they have become a sought-after commodity on the market.
But even if the price is the lowest, Yan Yunge can still make a high profit, and a boatload of weapons is transported away, and then a boatload of money is brought back.
Its profits are so high that only salt and sugar can be compared.
Good things can't be hidden.
It's not ......
Liu Zhang sent an envoy to Pingyang County, and also wanted to buy weapons and armor from Yanyun singers.
When the people arrived in Pingyang County, Yan Yunge was nowhere to be seen, and he was directly placed under house arrest in the Huibin Building and waited for the news.
Mr. Ji reminded: "It's not a way to keep people locked up, either kill them, let them go, or talk about cooperation." What kind of charter is Madame, so I can reveal one or two. The old man is also good at being measured. ”
Yan Yunge smiled, "Sir, I am a stingy and grudge-loving person. I haven't forgotten Liu Zhang's detention of Xiao Yi. Liu Zhang thought that Mrs. Ben was a person who did big things, so he didn't care about the details. But Mrs. Ben wants to teach him a lesson this time, don't be presumptuous! Kill the person, and send the head to Liu Zhang! ”
"This, this, this...... Are you sure you're going to kill someone? ”
"If you don't kill it, do you want to keep it for the New Year?"
