Chapter 441: The Mo Family Returns to the Heart

Yuan Zhang racked his brains in Longcheng for the future of Dayuan, but he still couldn't stop Arubu from using the old customs of Mobei on the enthronement ceremony, the little emperor and the ministers showed their tops and appeared in sheep's clothing on the founding ceremony of Dayuan and Arubu's enthronement ceremony.

The surrounding Mobei soldiers smiled at the embarrassment of these captives, while the people of Longcheng who were driven to watch the ceremony secretly clenched their fists, who knows if they will one day be reduced to the same fate as these people? Many of the scholars in the crowd exchanged glances, and they were already planning to give up this opportunity that might bring them glory and wealth.

If you have a heart, you will find that the number of Great Wei courtiers who appeared in the ceremony this time seems to be less than before, because after learning that they were going to suffer such an insult, many courtiers couldn't bear to commit suicide one after another, and the queen mother also took out the hidden gold hairpin to swallow gold after appeasing the little emperor and committed suicide, until the moment before her death, she still regretted her original decision.

The news was transmitted back to the Central Plains, the pseudo-Chu Xu Shiyong ruled the territory of the beacon smoke everywhere, the original Beijing camp forbidden army, the current Chu State Imperial Forest Army attacked from all sides, not only failed to exterminate the righteous army, but was repeatedly defeated by them, some blood and courage officers simply led their subordinates to defect to the righteous army, one after another states and counties were captured by them, and now Xu Shiyong ruled less and less territory, if it were not for Yeluhan and 30,000 Mobei troops sitting in Beijing, maybe even he would be killed by the righteous army.

The kings of Qi, Shu, Fu, and Yue immediately issued edicts criticizing Dayuan's cruel actions, and ordered other countries to submit to their own rule, jointly resist the northern captives, and regain lost territory, but unfortunately no emperor was willing to give up his throne to be someone else's little brother.

Li You didn't expect this, issuing such an edict in the name of his father was just to occupy the moral high ground, and after dealing with this matter, he shifted the focus of his work to internal affairs, such as today's chaos, if you want to develop and grow in the chaos, you must accumulate enough strength.

"Now the expansion of the army is going very smoothly, this time the successive victories in the north have made the whole world regard our Jiazhou Army as the strongest army in the world, and the move of the northern captives has caused the same hatred of the enemy, so the edict of conscription was posted at first glance, and heroes from all walks of life flocked to it, and now it seems that the task of expanding the army of 100,000 can be easily completed." In the Taiwei Mansion, Luo Shiji reported with a thick stack of documents that now he and Qin Shixin had recovered from the grief of Zhang Guo's death and regained their fighting spirit.

"Although the conscription has the assistance of the magistrate, the selection and review of the soldiers should still be based on the Taiwei Mansion, even if the number of soldiers expanded far exceeds the previous one, the recruitment standards should not be lowered, and the examination must be carried out in strict accordance with the requirements issued by the Taiwei Mansion, if the unqualified soldiers exceed the prescribed proportion, then the officials responsible for the recruitment and review of the batch of soldiers must be strictly dealt with and will not be tolerated." Li You made it clear that he would never want to see those slippery people in the forbidden army in his army, "When these recruits are trained, they plan to reorganize into the new army." ”

In order to avoid the influence of wealthy families on the military, Li You paid special attention to avoiding a large number of people with the same surname, the same clan, and the same township into the same army, "The Jiazhou Army and the Hedong Army should also be prepared for splitting." ”

He planned to split the existing Jiazhou Army and Hedong Army into several armies for a mix of old and new, even if Luo Shiji and Qin Shixin were not two minds now, he didn't want to put Zhang Guo's original subordinates in one army for a long time, which was beneficial to Li You and Luo Shiji and others, Qin Shixin and others had already been greeted by Luo Shiji, and immediately nodded and took the order.

"In addition, there are a lot of weapons and armor needed to expand the army by 100,000, as well as horses for cavalry and ships for sailors, all of which need to be prepared." Raising an army is not just about people.

"Horses and timber and craftsmen needed for shipbuilding, Xiaguan is trying his best to prepare, there are many big merchants in Shu who are willing to supply horses for us, there are also many big merchants in Lingnan Province who have sent timber and craftsmen, and even merchants in the jurisdiction of King Yue have sent envoys." Fan Li said slowly that after this period of development, his business network has spread all over the Great Wei.

"Then please Mr. Fan." Li You nodded, he was still very relieved of Fan Li's ability to do things, since he said that there was no problem, then he must be fully prepared.

"Armor and weapons, please rest assured, now that the capital has fallen, countless skilled craftsmen have gone south to join the workshop, and the scale of the workshop has now expanded more than twice as much as before, but the iron ore is now a little unable to keep up, if Fan Shilang can help solve it, then the lower officials will be able to deliver the materials on schedule." Gu Jiangzi said with a red light on his face, long before the siege of the Beiyu army, Juzi got the news that he took the Mo family disciples south early, and now they have all arrived in the workshop, and the strength of the workshop has been greatly enhanced, so even if it is the weapons and armor required by 100,000 people, they are confident that they can complete it.

"There are quite a few large iron mines in Jiangnan West Road, and someone has been ordered to investigate them, but if the ore is sent for a long distance, I am afraid that the gains outweigh the losses, so it is better to smelt iron ingots in a new local iron factory, and then transport the iron ingots to Jiazhou to build equipment." Fan Li replied.

"The next official will handle this matter personally." Gu Jiangzi happily accepted Fan Li's suggestion, now that there is a juzi in the workshop to help take care of him, he can also get out temporarily, the matter of preparing to build an iron factory is very important, and he is still a little worried if it is handed over to others.

"Then I'll bother Mr. Gu." Li You had no reason to allow it, and discussed a few more issues, and today's deliberations in the Taiwei Mansion were over, and the officials left separately.

Gu Jiangzi returned to the workshop and saw the Mo family Juzi again, it had been more than a month since Juzi arrived at the Jiazhou workshop, but he was still amazed by the scene in front of him, the towering furnace and the water-powered machinery opened his eyes, and then he thought about the expanding school on the hill, he had a sincere admiration for Gu Jiangzi's decision that day.

"Juzi, now that the Taiwei Mansion needs to temporarily leave Jiazhou for a while, I'm afraid I will have to bother Juzi to help manage the workshop for a while." Gu Jiangzi said respectfully.

"Gu Lao, go with confidence, I'm familiar with the things in the workshop these days." Juzi happily accepted it, and now he is completely convinced by Gu Jiangzi. (To be continued.) )
