Chapter 939: Congressional Army
Zetian Palace, the cool breeze gusted in the silent autumn night, the maple leaves in the courtyard fell to the ground, rolling with the wind and making a rustling sound, and the lights in the Qifeng Hall also swayed with the breeze, the eight maids stood respectfully aside, Shangguan Jingyue held the scroll presented by the Congress, and said: "Your Highness, have you decided?"
Qin Yin knelt on the rusty gold carpet, her palm was shining, it seemed that the strength of the light divine power had increased a few points, she took a deep breath, Yan Xi's eyes slowly opened a gap, and said, "Brother Ayu, what do you think?"
Lin Muyu sat by the stove, holding a fruit bowl full of grapes in his hand, and said, "It's up to you to decide." ”
"You are the marshal, and the affairs of the new legion naturally need to be decided by you. ”
"No, this legion is not ordinary, it is a congressional army. Lin Muyu spit the grape seeds in the basin on the side and said: "Once the parliamentary army is established, the supreme commander is not me, but the chief of the parliament is directly commanded, so it is best to ask the chief Qin Luo about this matter, and the relationship with me is not very big." ”
"Is the Congressional Army really established to defend the majesty of the Constitution?" Qin Yin said quietly.
"At least that's what they say in words. Lin Muyu smiled faintly: "But who knows, Xiaoyin, you decide for yourself, agree or deny, I support you, in fact, we don't have to be afraid too much, even if the Congress Army is established, it will not become a big atmosphere, the War Horses, Blades, Magic Crystal Cannons, Magic Crystal Crossbows, etc. of the Imperial War Department must be obtained with my handwritten signature, and I will not approve the Magic Crystal Cannon when the Congress Army is established, I think with the elite of the Gentian Battalion, 100,000 people are enough to destroy 400,000 Congress troops." ”
"That'...... I approved it. Qin Yin said: "It's not a way for these 400,000 troops to stay outside the city all the time, but it will threaten the safety of Lanyan City at any time." ”
"Well, that's what I thought too. ”
Lin Muyu clenched his fists and said, "Xiaoyin, I have one more request." ”
Qin Yin squinted at him with a pair of beautiful Yanxi eyes, stretched out her hand and pressed on the fist that Lin Muyu had picked up, and said with a gentle smile: "What are you doing with me so politely, there are only you and me here!"
Shangguan Jingyue turned around and pretended not to exist.
Lin Muyu let go of his hand, gently hugged Qin Yin's slender waist, and said: "Reappoint the secretary of the military department, I want Wei Qiu to be in charge of the military department, Qin Ziling to be in charge of the weapons department, I want the entire imperial military department to be in my control, otherwise, I am afraid that after the establishment of the National Army, they will target me as soon as possible." ”
"yes, that's right. Qin Yin chuckled.
......
The next day, in the morning, the morning meeting.
The empress will not conflict with the Congress, the court will be the six ministers, the three divisions of the important ministers, and the Congress is only a member of the Congress, outside the Zetian Palace, Wei Qiu, Zhang Wei and other generals have untied their swords, hung on the sword frame outside the hall, take off their boots by the Imperial Forest Guard to check before entering the hall, this is a rule for thousands of years.
However, Lin Muyu and Feng Jixing are qualified to carry blades into the main hall, which is the empress's amnesty.
Lin Muyu pressed the hilt of the Xuanyuan sword with his hand, waited for Wei Qiu, Situ Sen and others to finish the inspection, and then walked into the hall together, not long after, a group of people from the Congress surrounded the chief Qin Luo, Situ Sen, Wei Qiu, Zhang Wei, Luo Yu and others just glanced at Zhuang Yan, Su Changying, Zhou Heng and others and they were already tense, and the entire Great Qin court has been divided into two factions, the empress faction is a family, and the chief Qin is a family.
"Discussion, begin!"
The waiter's voice was long.
Qin Yin sat on the throne under the escort of Tang Xiaoxi and Ta Lilin, and with a slight wave of her palm, Shangguan Jingyue stepped forward and announced, "Commander-in-chief, Her Royal Highness the Empress has approved the proposal of the National Assembly on the establishment of the National Assembly Army. ”
Qin Luo nodded.
Zhuang Yan, Su Changying and others knelt down excitedly: "Thank you, Your Highness, for your permission!"
Shangguan Jingyue smiled: "However, Her Royal Highness the Empress has decided to promote the former Patriotic Public Defense Qiu to the secretary of the Ministry of War, and to promote Lord Qin Ziling to the head of the Weapons Department." ”
"Huh?"
Zhuang Yan was stunned for a moment, and said: "For such an important position as the secretary of the Ministry of War, its appointment should be approved by a resolution of the National Assembly before it can take effect, this is one of the constitutional regulations, please consider it Your Highness." ”
Qin Yin said lightly: "Isn't it fair that I allow the establishment of the National Assembly Army, and the National Assembly passes my resolution?
Zhuang Yan was stunned: "But Your Highness, the matter is important at this time, if it is not passed through the Congress......"
Before the words fell, suddenly Qin Yin disappeared from the throne, and the next moment he had already appeared in front of Zhuang Yan, a bright sword went straight to Zhuang Yan's neck, wisps of blood flowed down the blade of the Xingchen Sword, Qin Yin slowly opened Yan Xi's eyes, and said in an unusually cold voice: "I am the empress, I have the final say in this world, Zhuang Yan, play the game of your Congress, don't be embarrassed, if you force me again, I promise to let everyone in the Congress evaporate from this world!"
"Your Highness, I ......" Zhuang Yan's voice trembled.
"Pay attention to what you call yourself. Qin Yin said lightly: "Say it again." ”
Zhuang Yan plopped down and knelt down: "Your Highness, minister...... The minister knew that he was wrong. ”
Qin Yin nodded, spun around and flew up the royal ladder, staring at him, and said lightly: "From today onwards, the members of Congress do not have to participate in the court meeting of Zetian Palace. ”
The crowd trembled.
Only Qin Yao held the jade wat in his hand and said respectfully: "Your Highness Yin, the empire is now in ruins, and the parliament is also thinking about the long-term peace and stability of the empire in the future, and I hope that His Royal Highness Yin will not misunderstand, the old minister is the chief of the parliament, but he is also a minister of His Highness, so he naturally knows the measure, please check it out, the parliament will never be disobedient." ”
"I know, Uncle Huang shouldn't worry too much. ”
Qin Yin bowed his head and said, "Then, the matter about the Ministry of War and the Weapons Department in charge is so decided, in addition, after the establishment of the National Army, it must follow the dispatch of Marshal Lin Muyu." ”
Su Changying hurriedly clenched his fists: "Your Royal Highness is cautious, the establishment of the parliamentary army is to defend the majesty of the constitution, not a personal private army, the minister suggests that the mobilization of the parliamentary army is divided into two, one for the chief and one for His Royal Highness, only when the two tiger talismans are in order to mobilize the parliamentary army, which can also ensure the long-term peace and stability of the imperial capital." ”
Qin Yu clenched his fists: "The minister seconded the proposal." ”
Qin Yin seemed a little tired: "Well, that's right." ”
Qin Qiao continued: "The number of the parliamentary army was initially set at 400,000, which can be called the most powerful army in the empire, so ...... The demand for weapons, equipment, war horses, etc. is very large, His Royal Highness Yin, the old minister has drawn up some selections, and I hope that the Lord Shangshu of the Ministry of War can approve it. ”
The corners of Qin Yin's mouth raised: "Lord Wei Qiu, this matter will be left to you, Chief Lord, you can read out the details you listed in public." ”
"Yes!"
Qin Qian said: "200,000 pieces of battle armor, 50,000 war horses, 300,000 swords, 100,000 spears, 10,000 arrow boxes, 5,000 magic crystal cannons, 20,000 magic crystal crossbows, and 100,000 magic crystal cannonballs. ”
Wei Qiu couldn't help but laugh.
"What are you laughing at?" Zhuang Yan asked.
"I'm laughing, I don't know what year it is. ”
"Defend your revenge, you are bold!" Zhuang Yan scolded.
Wei Qiu said coldly: "I think this list is not selected by the chief elder, but by Lord Zhuang Yan himself, with so many blades, do you really think that the resources in the imperial arsenal are endless? Tell you, the magic crystal was originally recast from the magic crystal coins taken from the demons, but the magic crystal coins have almost been blown up by us over the years, and if you want the magic crystals, you have to go into the dragon hunting forest and other deep mountains to excavate, and the corpses of ancient monsters will condense the magic crystals, how precious the magic crystals are I don't need to say, the congressional army wants 100,000 cannonballs, no, not a single one!"
Qin Qian frowned and said, "Lord Wei Qiu doesn't need to be angry, maybe there is something wrong with this list, I think ...... Let's change it to 1,000 magic crystal cannons and 10,000 shells, right?"
"No, there isn't. ”
Wei Qiu said proudly: "The magic crystal cannon is used to deal with foreign races, and it will only be distributed to the major regular legions in times of war, so it will never be available now." ”
"But ......" Zhuang Yan sneered: "But the Gentian Battalion and the Forbidden Army are obviously equipped with magic crystal cannons and magic crystal crossbows, why, isn't the parliamentary army the imperial army?"
"Who is the supreme commander of the Capitol Army?" Wei Qiu asked.
"Naturally, it's the chief elder!" Zhuang Yan arched his hand at Qin Yao, and his respect was overflowing.
Wei Qiu smiled: "That's fine, the supreme commander of the parliamentary army is actually not the marshal of the empire, but a commander-in-chief, is such an army also considered an imperial army? Since His Royal Highness Yin appointed me Wei Qiu as the secretary of the military department, I naturally have to consider this kind of matter carefully, unless the parliamentary army directly obeys Lin Shuai's dispatch, otherwise I don't want to get any magic crystal cannon from me." ”
Saying that, Wei Qiu looked at several squires in the military department, and said: "Remember for me, strictly supervise all weapons in the empire, but if the magic crystal cannon that is not registered appears, it will be determined as illegal ownership, and it will be severely punished, and all the magic crystal cannons must be numbered and strictly checked, do you understand?"
"Yes, sir!"
Zhuang Yan, Su Changying and others trembled with anger, who is Wei Qiu, he is a generation of famous generals who have experienced a hundred battles, and he will not sell a little face to the chief Qin Yi at all.
Feng Jixing was laughing from ear to ear, no wonder Lin Muyu looked like he didn't care, it turned out that everything had already been arranged, Wei Qiu's words were not taught by him personally!
......
At this time, Qin Luo said in a low voice: "The Book of the Military Department - Lord Wei Qiu, then may I ask...... After the establishment of the Capitol Army, how many blades and equipment will be issued to us?"
Wei Qiu groaned: "500 war horses, 5,000 pairs of war armor, 10,000 swords, and 8,000 spears, can the chief take a look at these?" After all, the empire has just gone through a war and is short of materials, you see, even the war horses in His Highness Yin's carriage can't make up four horses of the same color, how can the parliamentary army be too extravagant?"
Qin Yu took a deep breath and said, "Since that's the case, then so be it...... The blades of the congressional army, I will find a way to solve it myself, thank you for the military department, when will those equipment and war horses be delivered?"
Wei Qiu also took a deep breath: "Six months later." ”
