Blood from Daming

Chapter 707 Buying Weapons

Ma Ming got Xue Yun's order and left. Along the way, he still couldn't understand why the general paid so much attention to Li Zicheng. From Ma Ming's point of view, Li Zicheng was a poor stick. The man in the middle is on the top, and he is still a loser. Ma Ming shook his head and stopped thinking about it.

Xue Yun spent the past few days with Naren Gaowa during the spring night, and talked with Tesna during the day to relieve boredom, and lived a leisurely life. Xue Yun was very anxious, but because Xue Yun was about to enter the bridal chamber with Gao Guiying, he had no choice but to watch Tesna swallow.

At this time, Gao Yigong came to ask Xue Yun for instructions, saying that a group of businessmen came down to see his brother-in-law. Xue Yun was still quite hidden in Gao's military village, but someone came to him by name. It seemed that he had come prepared, Xue Yun asked. Gao Yigong didn't the other party say anything special, Gao Yigong replied that the visitor mentioned the word "Jiangzhou".

Xue Yun thought for a while and ordered Gao Yigong to bring the leading businessman to see him. Gao Yigong left and came back soon. Xue Yun considered that the fewer people who knew about this matter, the better, so he directly sent them into the In a dark room in the big house, Gao Yigong took off the blindfold of the visitor and exited the room.

Xue Yun had practiced night vision before, and stayed in a dark room for a while, so it was not much different from being in a room with light. When Gao Yigong took off the mask, Xue Yun could see clearly who was coming. Elder Wang of Mingjiao, but Elder Wang rubbed his eyes and saw Xue Yun clearly after a few breaths. If this is a duel between martial arts masters, Elder Wang may have died several times in these few breaths.

I only heard Elder Wang say: "As expected, it is General Xue, but the way the general treats guests is a bit petty."

Xue Yun said: "Elder Wang, in fact, it is just for you to teach better, otherwise Wang Wei will be a lesson from the past."

Elder Wang said: "Don't worry, General Xue. We are still allies. How could the Holy Church attack his friends? However, General Xue seems to be able to kill the officers and soldiers of Yansui Town."

Xue Yun laughed and said: "Elder Wang hopes that this general and Wang Wei will be beaten to death. Are you clear enough to reap the benefits of the fisherman?"

Elder Wang said: "General Xue misunderstood, this old man is afraid that General Xue will cut the weeds and not get rid of the roots, and there will be endless troubles in the future."

Xue Yun smiled and said: "Elder Wang, you don't mean to teach this general a lesson, right?"

Elder Wang quickly waved his hand and said: "General Xue, this old man just thinks that the imperial court and the army are our common enemies. Seeing Wang Wei, the executioner, escaped from the sky, he just sighed a few words. This time I came to see the general to ask for something. "

Xue Yun said: "If Elder Wang has anything to say, just say it."

Elder Wang said: "Knowing that General Xue has defeated the Yansui Township's army, I believe that the seizures are very rich. The Holy Church wants to buy a batch of weapons and armor from the general."

Xue Yun also said simply: "Elder Wang, the ten boxes of gold, silver and jewelry you left in Jiangzhou are worth 8 to [-] taels of silver, so you can report the amount."

Elder Wang said: "General Xue, this old man has brought gold, silver and jewelry worth 5 taels of silver. I don't know how many weapons and armors he can exchange for."

Xue Yun said: "Elder Wang, you should report the number, otherwise this general will know what you want."

Elder Wang thought for a while and said: "The main thing is to have good weapons and armor. It doesn't matter if there are not many believers who can shoot accurately with bows and arrows. Shields are unnecessary. A wooden plank can be used to deal with it. Horses and firearms can be needed."

Xue Yun asked: "Elder Wang, didn't I give you [-] horses and a full set of equipment, why haven't you got all the guys when you're about to start trouble?"

Elder Wang smiled and said: "To be honest, General Xue, you know that the five hundred war horses and a full set of equipment were transferred away by the main altar, otherwise Suide Prefecture would already be the territory of the Holy Church, and now half of the Holy Church believers still use farm tools and bamboo forks, all especially eager for good weapons and armor."

Xue Yun said: "Horses and firearms are engraved by the officers and soldiers of Yansui Town, so they cannot be given to you Mingjiao. Weapons and armor are fine, but the weapons and armor of the civilian army are the main ones."

When Elder Wang heard what Xue Yun meant, he still didn't want to turn against the court, because when Elder Wang came, he knew that the Gao Family Army Village was negotiating with the government. It seemed that this was the case. Elder Wang really wanted to talk about Xue Yun. But now that Xue Yun has just become the commander-in-chief of Datong Town, it is estimated that the new emperor is trying his best to win him over. Now the timing is not right for persuasion work, so he suppressed his inner impulse and only talked about the arms deal first.

Elder Wang said: "General Xue, if you give a thousand sets of armor, can you build a batch of heavy iron armor, and give more good weapons for the rest."

Xue Yun thought about it for a while and thought that a thousand sets of armor would be worth more than 1 silver if they were discounted, and 5 sets of weapons would be worth [-] silver. Another two hundred sets of armor with equipment would be worth [-] silver, but it would be worth more than [-] taels of silver. There was still a long way to go, so Xue Yun had no choice but to make up his mind on the standard equipment in Yansui Town.

Xue Yun said: "Elder Wang, I will give you a thousand sets of armor and three thousand sets of weapons, and I will choose two hundred sets of iron armor for you. It is estimated that there is still a difference of ten thousand taels of silver, so I will add another five hundred sets of armor for your Mingjiao. Gather a batch of handy weapons."

Elder Wang nodded and said, "Success, it's all according to General Xue's wishes."

Xue Yun smiled and said: "This time the spoils are almost given to your Mingjiao. With so many weapons and armor, your Mingjiao's major event can be accomplished."

Elder Wang said bitterly: "General Xue, you were merciful for a while, and you sent Wang Wei and the bastard to Suide Prefecture, and the pressure on our holy religion will be greater. How dare you make trouble now when you were planning to make trouble? , Isn’t this coming to the general to buy equipment for self-protection?”

Xue Yun said: "Elder Wang, are you blaming this general for trapping your Mingjiao? Why didn't your Mingjiao take the opportunity to rise up when Yansui Town attacked Gao's army camp?"

Elder Wang kicked and said: "The officers and soldiers of Yansui Town are coming fiercely. We lack the equipment of the holy religion, and we are gearing up to start an incident. Who knew that General Xue's army defeated Wang Wei's frontier army with a wave of talking and laughing? Wei didn't go anywhere, but went to Suide Prefecture, where our holy religion gathers, which made the holy religion lose a good chance, didn't General Xue think that a man should be like this in his life?"

Xue Yun smiled and said: "Elder Wang, this general entrusts you to watch and help the Gao family's army stronghold, but Mingjiao just can't help you openly, so it shouldn't be a problem to harass some suspicious soldiers, isn't it because I watched my Xue family's army's foundation in Shaanxi be destroyed, this general Is rioting really good for your Ming Cult? I'm afraid it's just for fear that the world will not be chaotic."

Elder Wang smiled awkwardly and said: "Xue Jiajun, this old man is just an elder. He can't help himself in many things. This old man is sorry for the general, but this old man sincerely hopes that the general will raise the flag of righteousness. As long as the evil Zhu Ming Dynasty is overthrown, this old man is willing to give General Xue Jiajun, do you know that this is the dream of many generations of the Holy Church?"

Xue Yun said with a smile: "Elder Wang, if this general raises an incident, will this general obey Mingjiao, or you Mingjiao will obey this general?"

Elder Wang stood there in a daze after listening to Xue Yun's words. In fact, Elder Wang had been avoiding this question in his heart. How could the Mingjiao hand over the throne to an outsider? Xue Yun's conditions, but Xue Yun's strength is stronger than the Holy Cult. The Holy Cult has worked so hard to conquer the country, but in the end it can't pass Xue Yun's test. In the end, it is the same as the end of the Yuan Dynasty, making a dowry for Xue Yun or others .

Elder Wang sighed and said, "General Xue, your question is beyond the authority of this old man. I am sorry that this old man can't answer you, but I hope that our Holy Cult can live in peace with you, General."

Xue Yun said: "Elder Wang, the scope of the Mingjiao is really too big, I'd better recognize you, the other people, let's not interfere with each other, I hope you Mingjiao will restrain your congregation, so as not to hurt both of us." The harmony of the family."

Elder Wang nodded and bid farewell to Xue Yun. Xue Yun called Gao Yigong and Yan Laoyao to pick up Elder Wang. Gao Yigong still followed the old rules and continued to put on the blindfold for Elder Wang. He followed Elder Wang when he went out. After getting off the sedan chair, Elder Wang and Gao Yigong were lifted up by the bearers of the Gao family's military village, followed by Yan Laoyao and hurried down the mountain all the way.

Xue Yun returned to his room, Naren Gaowa added new tea for Xue Yun, Xue Yun sat on the chair and thought, Elder Wang went to get so many armors and weapons, there might be a big change in the boundary of Shaanxi, Suide Prefecture is close Shanxi, maybe Shanxi is also in chaos. Xue Yun feels that the civil chaos in Shaanxi is getting out of his historical cognition.

At this time, Naren Gaowa approached and said: "Sister Gao asked her husband to go, and said that General Guo Jingsong from Jiazhou is here."
