Kingdom of Heaven and Han

After hearing Wang Xiaolie's words, Orihiko hurriedly waved his hands: "Xuan Fu misunderstood! I didn't mean that!"

Wang Xiaolie said: "Ducheng, it doesn't matter if you mean it or not. What's the matter? I spent countless efforts to build the cannon, but I just hope to dedicate it to the imperial court. It must be used well. Such a sharp weapon in the army, don't use it badly." gone."

After speaking, raise your glass and let everyone drink.

Wang Xiaolie's previous sentence made Orihiko very embarrassed.There was no more words to say during the banquet, and the wine delay ended early.

Back at the residence, Wang Xiaolie washed his face and came to the front hall.Seeing Wang Ruohai there, he asked, "Did the councilor go back to rest?"

Wang Ruohai said: "I'm not good at drinking, and I can't fall asleep for a while, so I came here."

Wang Xiaolie sat down at the table and flipped through the official documents on the table.

Wang Ruohai said: "Zhe Yanzhi came to Luoyang and said he wanted artillery, and Xuanfu didn't obstruct him at all. But Jiuyan is not very satisfied with this matter."

Putting down the official document in his hand, Wang Xiao said: "I am a general of the imperial court. If the imperial court wants artillery, there is nothing to obstruct it. It is natural to be dissatisfied with this matter. For such a major event, Zhe Yanzhi came with both hands empty-handed." Oh, the imperial court has such a big face! Besides, according to the meaning of Zhe Yanzhi's words, the imperial court thought that we could defeat the Jin army on the battlefield because we had artillery. If we think this way, we will suffer!"

Wang Ruohai was startled: "Why did Xuanfu say that?"

Wang Xiaolie said: "The counselor thought that the Jin army and the puppet Qi all suffered from the artillery in the First World War in Xijing, what would they do?"

Wang Ruohai said: "Naturally, they sent people to try to steal the method of making artillery. There should be people from them in Luoyang City by now."

Wang Xiaolie nodded: "That's right, normal people would do this. However, when they sent people to Luoyang City, it was easy to see their traces, and they were spotted early on. As for artillery craftsmen, we have seen Strictly speaking, they will not be able to obtain the method of manufacturing artillery for a while. But if this kind of thing can be prevented for a while, how can it be prevented for a lifetime? Sooner or later, the Jin Army will also obtain the method of manufacturing artillery. We have to prevent this matter again Strictly speaking, it is impossible to prevent it. Therefore, what the army has to do is to study the use of artillery. Even if the Jin army has artillery, it is still not our opponent."

Wang Ruohai was startled: "Xuanfu is saying that if the artillery is in the hands of the imperial court, it will not be able to defend against the Jinren?"

Wang Xiaolie sighed: "Even the imperial edicts, Liu Yu often knows earlier than me, a frontier general, so what's wrong with stealing the method of making artillery? I reckon, we dedicated the artillery, or else Jin Jun learned it in one year."

Wang Ruohai said: "If so, should we remind Orihiko?"

"Reminder? Don't the court know?" Wang Xiaolie shook his head. "How to issue edicts and orders, and how to keep secrets on the road, the court has changed several times in the past few years. What's the use? It's not that the system is not good, but the court has an unnecessary attitude. Before the Battle of Xijing, Liu Yu's The envoys are domineering, which official dares to control? It is better to win the war. However, the Jurchens are still doing their own way, and the government doesn't dare to control them at all. So what can I do if I remind Orihiko? useless!"…

After hearing this, Wang Ruohai didn't know what to say for a while, so he could only shake his head.

Wang Xiaolie said: "Let's do our own thing well, and let them do the rest. I read the official documents of the past few days, and the Privy Council asked us if we heard that we were expanding the army. The people below dare not mess around." He said, it can only be placed here until I come back. What is so difficult to answer? Just tell the Privy Council that it is."

Wang Ruohai said: "It's different now. What if the Privy Council disagrees with our military expansion?"

Wang Xiaolie sneered: "What's the difference? Are our soldiers going to be raised by the Privy Council? We are generals of the court, so we naturally have to listen to the court. But we are facing the Jin army on the front line, so we can't listen to the court. After all , we will listen to what the court says is right, and if it is not right, we should ignore it.”

Wang Ruohai hesitated for a moment, and said, "What if the imperial court sends someone to inquire about the crime if it violates the edict?"

Wang Xiaolie said: "Then tell the people, why did we disobey the imperial edict! What else can we do? Should I bind my arms and go to walk in the thorns and ask for sin?"

Wang Ruohai nodded and said nothing.

With Wang Xiaolie's current strength, it should be said that he is already very submissive to the imperial court.If the court is not satisfied and wants to go further, conflicts are likely to arise.When a general leads troops outside, even if he is loyal and the court wants to criticize, he can still find many faults.Just like Yue Fei, he was considered self-disciplined among the generals, but he was rewarded with a knife by the court in the end.Wang Xiaolie understands that the more obedient they are to the imperial court, the more they will find fault with themselves.

This year, Zhang Jun drove away Kong Yanzhou, and except for Yang Mo, the Jinghu area was finally calmed down.From Xingzai to Xiangyang, the Yangtze River waterway is basically smooth now.Since the last time he went to Xingzai to offer prisoners, the court's attitude towards him has changed.

Recently, whether it is the official documents of the Zhongshu or the Privy Council, the management has become more and more detailed, and the tone has become more and more impolite, which makes Wang Xiaolie feel upset.If you don't show your attitude and let the court go on like this, who knows what will happen behind it.

This time Orihiko came to Luoyang, there was nothing to ask for a gun, the key was to come with both hands empty-handed.Even if the imperial court has no money, it should show its attitude, and at least give Wang Xiao a few altars of royal bars.This is actually the court's attitude, dissatisfied with Wang Xiaolie.

Thinking of this, Wang Xiaolie couldn't help but sneer.After leaving the official hall, a person came to the yard, stood by the pool and looked at the blooming lotus.

With artillery in the imperial court, there must be ministers and generals who feel like they are even more powerful, and their military strength will never be the same as before.At that time, my attitude towards myself was probably even worse.In addition to Orihiko, there are also a large number of civil servants who came to Luoyang this time.How to treat them, Wang Xiaolie needs to think clearly.

Under Wang Xiaolie's rule, everything in the salary was found in money, and it was never deducted, and it was never owed.Many officials are envious of this treatment.The last time the imperial court said it would send officials here, a large number of officials offered to come.

You can come, Wang Xiaolie has no objection.In this era, especially the imperial examination officials, they were originally selected from ordinary people as outstanding talents.Even if they are asked to learn governance, they can learn faster than others.Occupying so many states and counties by myself, I really need them.But after coming here, Wang Xiaolie will never allow him to change his governance philosophy.People who can't come have changed themselves.

Next, Wang Xiaolie will face these people and deal with difficult matters.Implementing their own governance methods, not only may these officials be dissatisfied, but may also arouse the suspicion of the court.Once Wang Xiaolie gave in, many things would be unimaginable.
