Chapter 196: Help

"You give me this thing farther away, I don't want to see your drawings."

Sun Yuanhua's face was full of disgust, not without reason, as one of the people who knew most about firearms manufacturing.

He could see at a glance the design drawings of the firearm in Huo Weihua's hand.

Obviously, there are still shortcomings.

Individual places don't even just affect performance.

What's more, there are some details that can affect the safety of the soldiers.

"Lord Sun.. Okay, okay.. The officer assures that this is definitely not the last batch of musket drawings, and that it will be revised later. You just need to send someone to produce a sample gun."

Huo Weihua's face was full of flattery.

However, Sun Yuanhua looked disgusted, if it weren't for the fact that many of the belongings in the General Bureau of Ordnance were the belongings of the original military department, he estimated that he would not see Huo Weihua directly now.

Now the Tiger Army of Great Tomorrow is constantly resting.

The loss of firearms during the battle was huge, and the production tasks of the General Bureau of Ordnance were tightly lined up every day, not to mention Zhu Youzhen's army expansion plan.

The first divisions to be expanded will soon be equipped with new rifles.

How could Sun Yuanhua have the time to stop one of these lines and produce these things for Huo Weihua, which in his opinion were defective products.

"No.. Lord Huo, if it weren't for my Sun Yuanhua to refute your face, I can't even understand why the Royal Ordnance Research Institute would produce such a firearm drawing."

"But no.. It just doesn't work.."

Sun Yuanhua, whose head shook like a rattle.

met Huo Weihua, who had to finalize this matter today.

Just listen to what he says.

"Lord Sun, if there is no way, how can this official not know that this firearm is still a little hot now..."

Talking and talking.

Huo Weihua looked excited and said, "But there is no way for this official!" ”

Sun Yuanhua was stunned when he saw this, and Xue Fengxiang from the Ministry of Industry also walked in from outside the door, and now he is not only the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, but also the person in charge of the Royal Ordnance Administration.

"Lord Sun.. It's my opinion, so be it.."

As soon as Xue Fengxiang spoke, he saw that Sun Yuanhua wanted to say something, and waved his hand.

Turning his head to look at Huo Weihua, he said, "Has this matter been reported to the emperor?" ”

"The emperor knows.."

After nodding, Xue Fengxiang asked again, "Have you ever thought about this matter?" ”

"This official is natural. Figured it out! ”

Without asking again, Xue Fengxiang frowned.

He sighed deeply and said: "Now that the Musket and Artillery Division has been merged into one, Lord Sun will help you this time, send the materials to the General Bureau of Ordnance, and in a few days, I will notify you to send someone to pick it up." ”

Seeing this, Huo Weihua hurriedly thanked the two and left.

The person just left.

Sun Yuanhua opened his mouth and said: "Lord Xue also saw that the so-called modified firearm still has a lot of flaws in its design, why?"

"You're asking why I agreed to help him give birth, right?"

Xue Fengxiang's eyes were filled with a little nostalgia for a moment.

said: "At the beginning, the most closely related to the Ministry of Industry was not only the Ministry of Households, but also the Ministry of War. I am familiar with Huo Weihua, but the dignified secretary of the military department can now be entangled with you here for a few days, and come here several times."

"It's enough to show that this thing is at least very important to him and the Ministry of War, so it is important to the imperial court... Sometimes, you can't just look at whether it's perfect or not... The merits are left to the latecomers. Master Sun.."

After speaking, Xue Fengxiang also waved his hand and went to see the materials that Huo Weihua was going to send to produce an improved model of musket, and only Sun Yuanhua was there.

Stand at the door of the processing workshop.

Silent for a long time.

After a while, Sun Yuanhua, who seemed to have understood something, slowly spit out a sentence: "It is worthy of being a scholar.."

...

This time, in Huo Weihua's own opinion, he had gambled all his capital and tied the fate of the entire military department to himself.

Now the war to quell Annam.

It is the last chance of the Ministry of War, if it is impossible to show Zhu Youzhen the role of the Ministry of War in this war, then in Huo Weihua's opinion.

There is no doubt that after the battle, the only way to usher in the military department is to dissolve or reorganize or something like that.

After all, today, the general headquarters of the Tiger Army is set up in Beijing.

Compared with the military department, the emperor naturally trusts the Ming Imperial Tiger Army that he pulled up single-handedly, and now the matter of the Pingnan Army...

is undoubtedly Zhu Youzhen's last chance for himself.

Therefore, for some details, Huo Weihua has no time to think about it so much.

After returning to the military headquarters.

Huo Weihua made arrangements in all aspects, and the will of the imperial cabinet would soon come down, and the war of the Ming court against Annam would also be directly through the Daming Monthly Report and other means.

Spread the word out directly.

After all, this time, the Great Master is famous.

What's more, Annan has been fighting for many years, and in the past, it was just a relatively small scale.

But for the people of the Ming Dynasty, it is not so difficult to accept, Huo Weihua wants to take advantage of this opportunity to improve the status of the Pingnan Army in the eyes of the people.

More importantly, to pass through the Pingnan Army.

After the restructuring of the Ming army, these military households scattered throughout the Ming Dynasty will continue to exist in the local area in a local army model if they are allowed to continue to exist in the local area.

Huo Weihua thinks.

The day when the scale of the Heavenly Tiger Army was perfected.

On the day when all the local armies were disbanded, he wanted to use the name of the Pingnan Army and take advantage of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to fight against Annam.

Annan will be used as the base camp of the Pingnan Army in the future.

Even if it is to defend the southwest border of the imperial court for generations, it is better than ending up with a return to his hometown for the people.

However..

How could such a small action bypass the gaze of Zhu Youzhen in Miyagi...

Putting down the fold in his hand, Zhu Youzhen's brows furrowed slightly, and then his face soothed, and he opened his mouth to Wei Zhongxian and said, "What Huo Weihua is doing now is what I instructed... Huo Weihua can see the problem of the military department more clearly than me."

"The Emperor.. You mean the military department.."

Zhu Youzhen nodded and said, "Of course the Ministry of War will not disappear, but he Huo Weihua is destined to leave, and even most of the ministers of the Ministry of War are leaving."

"The system of civilian management of the army has reached the point where it is about to be abolished, and under such a model, it is not beneficial to the army at all. I have decided that after this Annam War, the Heavenly Tiger Army will form a new military unit.."

When Wei Zhongxian heard this, he also came back to his senses.

said: "The old slave understands. I'll be helping this Huo Weihua for a few days in the near future."
