For a long time in ancient times, the war horses that the Central Plains Dynasty could obtain mainly included Mongolian horses, southwestern horses and Hequ horses.

Among them, the overall size of Mongolian horses is smaller than that of Hequ horses, and their weight-bearing capacity is slightly worse, and their explosiveness and speed are not superior.

However, Mongolian horses can adapt to various climates and terrains, do not pick feed, have thick limbs, and have strong endurance, especially suitable for continuous long-distance running.

At this time, the easiest and lowest cost of the Ming army was the Mongolian horse!

Wang Li put on the iron armor, tried to ride for a while, and was hooked!

This thing, in land warfare in this era, is almost invincible!

The heavy iron armor that wraps the rider's whole body, the iron armor that wraps the whole body of the war horse, the musket and bow can't shoot through, the spear can't pierce, and the big knife can't cut!

Even if the cannon pellet explodes in front of you, the rider and the war horse have a great survival rate!

Six or seven hundred pounds of war horses, plus more than 100 pounds of riders, plus more than 100 pounds of iron armor and armor, it is simply a moving Mount Tai!

In this formation, even if you don't have weapons equipped, you can knock a group of enemies away with just your own impact power!

If it is paired with a weapon cluster charge, it is definitely a human block to kill, and a Buddha to block and kill a Buddha!

Hehe!

If there are 20,000 or 30,000 cavalrymen, I will go to fight Huang Taiji tomorrow!

Destroy this guy, and never suffer again!

If I have forty or fifty thousand horsemen, I can fight all over Eurasia!

Hehe, it's not bloat!

The whip of God, the Hun king Attila and the Mongol Khan Temujin, were still just light cavalry!

Wang Li was dreaming, but Cao Wenyao poured cold water:

"Factory Gong, the iron cavalry can only fight land battles, and has an advantage in frontal charging with enemy soldiers;

However, the iron cavalry moved slowly, and the weight of the horses was very high, so they could not catch up with the defeated enemy light cavalry, nor could they break through the city!

So ......"

"Uh...... I know! ”

Wang Li smiled and jumped off the war horse nonchalantly: "If the number is too small, it will naturally not be enough to fight Huang Taiji, and it will be no problem to fight a few chaotic people!"

By the way, your brother has been gone for nearly half a month, why is there no news? ”

Cao Wenyao's face sank, Wang Li knew his thoughts, and quickly changed the topic: "Don't worry, your brother will come back this time, at least two or three thousand horses!" How much have you made of your iron armor? ”

"The factory man, only thirteen pairs of ...... were made"

Hearing this number, Wang Li was a little unhappy!

In half a month, I gave you more than 2,000 people, how did you make thirteen pairs?

Cao Wenyao saw Wang Li's displeasure, and hurriedly said: "Gonggong, you also know that we only have one iron furnace......

Moreover, to make cast iron into armor pieces of different sizes, it also needs to be punched, connected with leather ropes, and edging with leather, which is very cumbersome!

Those people are not skilled, and they need to be taught by hand!

So ......"

"Actually, thirteen pairs are enough!" Wang Li smiled and changed the topic again: "Nurhachi started back then, didn't he only have thirteen pairs of armor!"

Feel relieved! The materials you need are being prepared and will be shipped in another half a month!

If you recruit another 5,000 people, how to distribute it, you can see what to do!

If one stove is not enough, open another one!

5,000 people are not enough, so I will give you another 5,000!"

You don't have to worry about wages and food, you just need to build armor, the more the better!

Whatever you need, just ask! ”

"Thank you for your trust! This side will soon be straightened out, and the speed will definitely get faster and faster! Never let the factory down! ”

"Well said, well said! You don't want to stay in the mountains all day, you have to learn to combine work and rest!

When you have nothing to do, go back to the city to listen to music, or find a girl to warm the bed, you will definitely get twice the result with half the effort! ”

Hearing this, Cao Wenyao's face was full of black lines, but Wang Li laughed and left quickly.

……

Wang Li never expected that Xu Xianchun would suddenly visit!

One of the "Five Biaos" of Wei Zhongxian, who was born as a "Wujinshi", disappeared for more than a year, and thought he had resigned and returned to his hometown!

It is no wonder that the East Factory is engaged in intelligence: how can the West Factory, which has been established for less than two years, get the internal intelligence of the East Factory?

What Wang Li didn't expect was that Xu Xianchun brought two gifts!

Zhu Guobi, who was filial piety at home, couldn't afford to get sick after "occasionally feeling cold", and after taking two pairs of medicines in Langzhong, he died with a whimper!

This gift, Wang Li is naturally thinking about it!

Another big gift turned out to be "Fuchun Mountain Residence Map"!

"Gonggong, my subordinates came here on the order of Gonggong Wei, and I have something to ask for!"

"Oh, my factory and your Wei father-in-law are friends who have forgotten the year! His business is the matter of the West Factory, why should he be so polite? ”

Wang Li was careless on the surface, but he clutched the scroll stubbornly: "I heard...... Long live the Lord handed over the disaster relief task of Henan to the East Factory, but is there such a thing? ”

"Back to the factory, this is indeed the case!

This year's drought in Henan is even worse than last year, and Long live Lord is extremely worried!

For the Shanxi disaster relief of the West Factory, Long Live Lord greatly appreciated it, and specially ordered the East Factory to follow suit;

However, the Duke of Wei was busy with state affairs, so he had to entrust this matter to his subordinates, as well as Lord Cui, the squire of the military department;

The subordinates came this time to ask for the method of disaster relief, and I hope that the factory will not be stingy to give advice! ”

"Really?"

Wang Li smiled faintly, and asked lightly: "Master Cui was originally the secretary of the Ministry of Works of the Beijing Division, how could he go to Nandu to hang up the false position of a military squire?"

I remember...... The squire of the military department in the southern capital seems to be ...... It should be Lord Tang Shiji, right?

Tell me, what the hell is going on? ”

When Wang Li said this, Xu Xianchun was slightly stunned, his face was full of smiles, and he no longer concealed his intentions:

"The factory is far away in Shanxi, but he knows everything about Jingshi and Nandu, and his subordinates admire it!

In fact, the subordinates came this time for the Donglin Party......"

Donglin Party!

It's the Donglin Party again!

This Wei Zhongxian, why does he always have trouble with the Donglin Party?

Anytime, no matter where, as long as the Donglin Party is mentioned, he is like being beaten with chicken blood!

This hatred is like the Donglin Party digging his ancestral grave!

This guy always goes to provoke the Donglin Party, and sooner or later something will happen!

He knows too much about his corruption!

If he falls, the next unlucky person will be himself!

persuade him to keep a low profile, a low profile, and a low profile, why don't you always listen?

You want to kill me, don't you?

Wang Li's displeasure, Xu Xianchun saw it all in his eyes, and leaned into Wang Li's ear: "Gonggong, Gonggong Wei said: As long as you kill the first assistant Han Yi and the second assistant Qian Longxi, you can kill Hou Sui by the way!"

At that time, the "Thousands of Miles of Rivers and Mountains" in his hand, Gonggong Wei will definitely present it with both hands!

Moreover, his son Hou Fangyu ......"

Hearing the name of "A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains" and Hou Fangyu, Wang Li was a little uneasy!

In fact, regardless of whether he is a Donglin Party or not, Wang Li has long wanted to kill him!

By the way, kill his son Hou Fangyu again!

By the way, I got "A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains"!

It's a pity that Hou Sui's ass is very clean!

Or rather, he is very incorruptible!

Whether it is the East Factory or the West Factory, you can't catch the slightest bit of his handle!

Even the "blackmail list" of more than 120 people does not have Hou Sui's name!

So......

"It's not that easy!" Wang Li shook his head, obviously not believing Xu Xianchun's words: "Even if you defeat Han Yi and Qian Longxi, it will be difficult to defeat Hou Sui!" ”

"Yes, you can't take him down right away, but you have a much better chance!

Factory Gong, you also know that the current cabinet and military department are all Donglin Party members!

If they don't suppress it, they will be allowed to sit big!

We must be on guard!

Still, it's okay!

Sun Chengzong is old, has no quarrel with the world, and is bent on Liaodong, we don't have to touch him, and we are not afraid of him!

Therefore, the current Donglin Party, as long as Han Yi and Qian Longxi are overthrown, Hou Sui will be alone!

At that time, let's find a few officials at random, and find some trivial things to impeach all day long, even if we can't kill him, we can make him exhausted and retreat in the face of difficulties! ”

Thinking about it carefully, Xu Xianchun's words are not unreasonable!

For an incorruptible person like Hou Sui, an extraordinary method should be used!

Alas!

Han Yi, Qian Longxi, the downfall of the two of you was just an accidental injury, don't blame me!

If you want to complain, you have to complain that you are the Donglin Party!

But...... I always feel that something is wrong?

Wei Zhongxian, why is he so anxious?

If it is said to prevent the resurgence of the Donglin Party and prevent the Donglin Party from recovering the old accounts, the reason is not sufficient, right?

The Donglin Party made the first and second assistants, and they didn't particularly target him?

This guy has been "low-key" for a year or two, why can't he help it suddenly?

Well, low-key!

After Zhu Youzhen ascended the throne, he was indeed very low-key!

When he was in court, his henchmen rarely spoke, and he never annoyed people!

Moreover, his henchmen resigned from important positions one after another, and went to the south to hang up some false positions, which made no one target him!

Nandu, Nandu!

I'll go!

This guy is actually in the next big game of chess!

The difficulty in collecting the commercial tax was due to the opposition of the courtiers!

The courtiers who can speak can almost all of them are the Donglin Party!

In other words, the Donglin Party in the DPRK is the agent of the Jiangnan Shi clan!

The focus of commercial tax collection, or the most prosperous area of industry and commerce, is Jiangnan!

After the Donglin Party is overthrown, who dares to say "no" when it comes to collecting commercial taxes?

This guy has already transferred his power to Jiangnan!

It's really a rainy day!

Reasonable, public and private, I should help him!

Who calls himself a eunuch?

Who says they want to do business tax too?

Who called that Hou Sui and gave birth to a son?

However, the eunuch party at this time should still be low-key!

If you want to start the Donglin Party, why do you have to do it yourself?

The Donglin Party is powerful, and there are many people who want to engage them!

Wei Zhongxian, is this guy wise and foolish, or is he confused for a while?

"Lord Xu, if I'm not mistaken, Tang Shiji is also a member of the Donglin Party, right?

Since Gonggong Wei wanted to engage in the Donglin Party, why did he recommend this person to the Ministry of War? Isn't it asking for trouble? ”

"Actually...... This thing...... It's just a coincidence!

At the beginning, when Huang Liji was the first assistant of the cabinet, the Donglin Party was not arrogant now, right?

Tang Shiji was reactivated, and it was also your play, right?

Grandpa Wei, it's just a casual mention!

Unexpectedly, Long Live Lord really transferred Tang Shiji to Jingshi! ”

I'll go!

That's really the way it is!

Tang Shiji was transferred to the Beijing Division, and not only cashed in the "activity fee" of 100,000 taels of silver, but also secretly added 50,000 taels of silver to himself!

However, that's not a bad thing either!

Although Tang Shiji is a member of the Donglin Party, like Sun Chengzong, he does not exclude other courtiers!

Moreover, there seems to be an inextricable connection between him and Wen Tiren!

In this case, our group of eunuchs can still watch the fire from the other side!

When necessary, just fan the wind a little!

"Lord Xu, please also tell Grandpa Wei: Let's not come out for the time being!

Just suggest to the Lord Banzai that a few cabinet lists be added......"

"Oh? Co-opt the Cabinet? ”

Xu Xianchun thought for a while and asked tentatively: "Gonggong, what do you mean...... Let Wen Tiren come out? ”

"That's right!"

Wang Li smiled indifferently and said confidently: "Wen Tiren and Zhou Yanru have long wanted to enter the cabinet!"

It's a pity that after the resignation of the former first assistant Huang Liji, in order to balance the forces of all parties, Long Live Lord adopted the method of drawing lots to select cabinet members;

Han Yi and Qian Longxi entered the cabinet and were promoted to the first and second assistants, but it was just luck!

Looking at them unpleasantly, in addition to Gonggong Wei, it is Wen Tiren and Zhou Yanru!

These two guys are crazy to want to be in the cabinet, and they want to be the first assistant!

So, what should Gonggong Wei of Jingshi do, I don't need to teach him by hand! ”

"Brilliant plan! The subordinates will report to Grandpa Wei!

Factory father, you just wait for the good news! ”
