Kingdom of Heaven and Han

Chapter 747
In the next few days, Xie Yuan sent by Han Shizhong and Tian Shizhong sent by Zhang Jun also arrived one after another.Wang Xiaolie explained to them that he paid the money with one hand and the cannon with the other hand, and then arranged them in the post house.When Li Yanxian returned to Luoyang, he invited them occasionally, but it was difficult to see Wang Xiaolie.

On September [-]th, the Double Ninth Festival, Li Yanxian invited Yue Fei, Wang De, Tian Shizhong and Xie Yuan to enjoy the chrysanthemum together.After admiring the chrysanthemums, I went to Luoshui to draw a boat and hold a banquet.

On the afternoon of the Double Ninth Festival, Liu Ziyu sent by Zhang Jun arrived.

Unlike others, Zhang Jun knew that his relationship with Wang Xiaolie was mediocre, and Liu Ziyu came with money.It's just that the estimate of the unit price of the artillery was wrong. Liu Ziyu only brought enough money to buy more than 20 guns.

Wang Xiaolie said: "There is no other way, the councilor, so I have to bring more than 20 cannons back first."

Liu Ziyu frowned and said, "Xuan Fu, if autumn is approaching, how can more than [-] guns be enough? If the Jin army doesn't come, the Privy Councilor wants to attack."

Wang Xiaolie said: "After the artillery is transported back, it must be familiarized with the army first. How can it be used directly on the battlefield? There are more than 20 cannons, and the army is familiar enough."

Liu Ziyu shook his head: "It's just familiarity. A few months is too long. ——In Luoyang City, have all the armies sent people here?"

Wang Xiaolie nodded: "That's right. Especially in Yue Fei's army, he came here by himself and has been living here for a while."

Liu Ziyu nodded and said nothing more.

Watching Liu Ziyu go out, Wang Ruohai said: "Xuan Fu, should Liu Ziyu be given artillery first? I'm afraid it will set a precedent. In the future, all armies will have their opinions if they don't get the artillery with the money. It's best to let Liu Ziyu wait." Let's set an example for everyone."

Wang Xiaolie shook his head: "Consultant, our cannons are for goldsmiths of all armies. As long as the money arrives, the cannons will be paid immediately. Even if we can't make them, we will give them the cannons we use first. Don't argue about it, there's nothing to talk about."

Wang Ruohai shook his head and said nothing more.In this kind of matter, Wang Xiaolie is indeed impartial, and no one else can find fault with him.

Liu Ziyu left the Henan government office, stopped in his tracks, and looked at the bustling stream of people.After a while, he sighed.

It could be seen that Wang Xiaolie knew the seriousness of the matter.As long as you give money, give guns immediately.It is not easy to do this, and even have to give away the artillery in one's own army.As a courtier of the Song Dynasty, Wang Xiaolie could be said to be benevolent and righteous.

It's just that Wang Xiao hunted his benevolence to the utmost, are the other generals ready?Liu Ziyu shook his head.

Last time he stayed in the military academy for quite a long time, Liu Ziyu knew how Wang Xiaolie trained the army.But after returning to the northwest, Liu Ziyu was ridiculed by the generals when he talked about Wang Xiaohun's method.It is said that according to this method, it will be impossible to lead troops, let alone command operations.

As for the record of Wang Xiaohun's army, all the generals turned a blind eye.When I really brought it up, it is said that even if the military academy teaches that way, it is absolutely impossible to lead troops like that.Just kidding, the command is not smooth now, like Wang Xiaolie, how can the armies command?

Back at the post station, Liu Ziyu ate something casually and fell asleep.

It wasn't until evening that Yue Fei and the others returned to the post house.Hearing that Liu Ziyu was coming, Yue Fei wanted to come to see him, but Liu Ziyu was still asleep.Back at his residence, Yue Fei sat alone, feeling bored.

The rest of the people were already drunk, Yue Fei quit drinking and was the only sober one.At such a moment, Yue Fei wanted to find someone to confide in.

After moving a chair, Yue Fei came to the yard under the big ginkgo tree, and sat there alone watching the sunset.

The setting sun sheds boundless rays of light, and red dragonflies are flying in the rays of light.Yue Fei sat on the top chair, looking at the scenery in front of him, thoughtful.

It was not easy for Wang Gui to collect the money he needed, and Xu Qing hadn't come yet.Among the major generals, Yue Fei's first army was newly independent and had the least money.Now that all the armies are gathered in Luoyang, it is basically impossible to persuade Wang Xiaolie to give him a discount alone.

Alas - Sighing heavily, Yue Fei only felt that his mind was extremely heavy.

Early the next morning, Wang Xiaolie sent people and Liu Ziyu to watch the cannon.The others had nothing to do and followed to the artillery field together.

Seeing that there are fifty or sixty cannons lined up under the shed of the artillery field, everyone rushed forward together.

Feeling the smooth polished inside and outside of the cannon, Wang De repeatedly praised: "So this is the cannon! Wang Xuanfu has already cast it here, just wait for it to be shipped out! It is really not a lie to say that you will pay with one hand and hand in the cannon with one hand!"

Tian Shizhong said: "It's good to have a cannon! It's agreed to pay the money with one hand and the cannon with the other hand. I'm afraid that the cannon will not be handed over when the money arrives!"

Zhang Jun is the most lenient banker among all the people, as long as he is willing to give, he can send the money soon.Tian Shizhong has been worried that when his money arrives, Wang Xiaolie finds excuses not to pay the cannon, and it will be troublesome then.

Xie Yuan studied the cannons carefully, and said to Liu Ziyu, "These cannons are newly made, the councilor had better try the cannons."

Liu Ziyu said: "That's right. Try the artillery to know how powerful it is."

He ordered his subordinates to come forward and study carefully, how to charge the powder, how to load the ammunition, and how to ignite the fire. The discussion was in full swing.

Song Yan looked at everyone coldly and didn't speak, letting them discuss there.

Finally, Liu Ziyu came to Song Yan and said, "Director, I still have to try this gun. If you don't try it, you will have no idea after all."

Song Yan said: "Which one the counselor likes, he drags it out and goes to the artillery field to test the cannon. There is an artillery field behind the workshop, which is specially used for testing the cannon."

Liu Ziyu said: "Can't you try every one? You have to try all of them, so that you can feel at ease."

Song Yan rebuffed straight away: "Sensei, it's very expensive to try a gun once! If you buy more than 20 guns, you can only try two guns at most. If there are more, you will have to pay extra."

When Liu Ziyu heard that he was going to pay, he couldn't help being stunned.Said: "There are more than 20 cannons here, I paid tens of thousands of pennies, what's the matter with trying a few cannons?"

Song Yan sighed: "Chan Hui, Xuan Fu won't make you money, but he can't make us lose money, right? Tens of thousands of dollars, you think it's a lot, but it's really not profitable here. If you want to test guns, you can only Pay your own money, buy artillery, shells, etc."

Seeing Song Yan's appearance, Liu Ziyu didn't seem to be lying.After thinking about it, I had no choice but to say: "Try two doors first, and see how it looks."

Song Yan said: "Commissioner to pick out two doors so that we can take them to the artillery test field. We have special procedures and personnel for artillery testing. Not everyone can do it. Also, the gunners brought by the councilor should follow along with us." go."

Liu Ziyu shook his head and sighed, went to the cannon and picked two doors that looked friendly.Seeing that Song Yan sent someone to pull it with three healthy mules.Together with the others, they went to the cannon test ground next to them.

When it was just code words, I didn’t know what to write at all, and the context couldn’t be connected. , I can’t finish writing a sentence at once. What a hell! I hope I can recover soon.)
