Kingdom of Heaven and Han

Chapter 745
After Yue Fei was settled, Wang Xiaoli went to the official hall and invited Wang Ruohai and Wang Yan to discuss matters.

As soon as the two entered the official hall, Wang Ruohai hurriedly asked: "Did Xuan Fu promise Yue Guan to give him artillery?"

Wang Xiaolie nodded.Said: "They want the artillery to fight the Jin army. This is something that benefits the country and the people. How can I refuse?"

Wang Ruohai said: "But if they have guns, their combat power will be greatly improved, and even surpass us. At that time, many things will be difficult to say."

Wang Xiaolie looked at Wang Ruohai, then at Wang Yan, seeing the same expressions on both of them.Can't help but sigh: "Staff, Secretary, in your heart, do you think that because our army has artillery, it is better than others? After so many years since the army was established, only the battle in the west of Beijing was used. Is the previous record so unbearable?" ?”

Wang Ruohai hurriedly said: "Of course not! However, artillery is indeed a magic weapon on the battlefield, so don't take it lightly!"

Wang Yan also said: "Xuan Fu, although the army has won battles before, compared with having artillery, it is still quite difficult to win. With artillery, whether it is Liu Yu's army or Li Jun when he was in Junzhou Loyalty, they all came down in a single battle. Even if you dialed the speed and were blocked in the city of Shanzhou, there was nothing you could do. How can you compare?"

Wang Xiaolie said: "I never deny the role of artillery, otherwise I would not have paid such a high price, and there are so many equipments in the army. However, although artillery is a sharp weapon on the battlefield, it cannot be relied on. It can really determine the victory of the battlefield. The loser is our army and our soldiers. As long as the soldiers of the army have strong beliefs, sufficient training, and reasonable command, they will have the basis for winning battles. At this time, having artillery in the army is the icing on the cake, and It’s not giving charcoal in a timely manner. You must remember that whether it is artillery or other weapons, it is not the decisive force for victory or defeat on the battlefield.”

Wang Yandao: "Even so, it is different whether such a sharp weapon is in our army or in other people's army."

Wang Xiaolie sighed: "You have to understand that the Jin Army has grabbed the artillery and has patterns, so it will be able to equip a lot soon. At this time, if the other generals do not have artillery, they may be beaten by the Jin Army." Caught off guard. After all, we had to give."

After being silent for a while, Wang Ruohai said: "When Xi Canzheng was here, although Xuan Fu said he was loyal to the court, he was not respectful. At this time, if the court had artillery in its hands, something unexpected might happen. "

Wang Xiaolie said earnestly: "You think that if the Holy Majesty can unite the subjects, restore the Central Plains in the Northern Expedition, and avenge the shame of Jingkang, I can let the court deal with it. Is it casual? No. The court can do it. Fu, why should I care about myself?"

Wang Ruohai and Wang Yan looked at each other, and shook their heads, unable to say anything more.

Wang Xiaolie also sighed secretly.Whether it is for the sake of the common people and does not care about himself, or because he believes that Zhao Gou can't do it, that's why he said this, Wang Xiaolie can't tell.Zhao Gou really did it, it's hard to say whether he will hesitate, whether he will lead his neck to be killed.

what is the relationship?Things in this world are just so difficult, so hard to explain.If you can't tell, you can't tell, so what?As long as what you do is worthy of the world, you don't have to worry about it too much.

After being silent for a while, Wang Xiaolie said: "I have already promised Yue Fei that a cannon will cost [-] guns, and when the money comes, we will start making cannons. They will give money, either copper coins or gold and silver. If there is no money, there will be no money." gun--"

Wang Ruohai couldn't help frowning: "[-], we don't earn much."

Wang Xiaolie said: "The cannon is used to fight the Jin army. We don't expect to use it to make money. As long as we can guarantee that we won't lose money, and the original factory can compensate you after transferring other machines, that's enough. One cannon [-] guan, not a lot of money, but never a loss."

When counting materials, Wang Xiaolie would of course talk too much.For example, to destroy money and cast cannons, pure copper is not used, copper only accounts for [-]%, and the rest is lead and tin.Wang Xiaolie didn't count other materials of the money, only pure copper.The cannons in Wang Xiaohun's army cost less than a thousand guns.But at this time, Wang Xiaolie's cost of [-] guan is not unreasonable if he wants [-] guan, and [-] guan is indeed the price of conscience.

Wang Ruohai said: "You won't lose money with [-] guan. However, if you need hundreds of guan, how can we do it?"

Wang Xiaolie said: "It was impossible at first. Depending on the amount of money brought by each army, it will be produced in installments. It will be September, and it will be a great thing to be able to deliver to each army before the year. I think, in order to prevent the Jin army from Attack suddenly and give each army ten or twenty gates as soon as possible, that's enough."

After he finished speaking, he thought about it, and Wang Xiaolie said again: "If you have enough money, if any army needs it urgently, you can give them the artillery from our army."

Wang Yan hurriedly said: "How can this be done? What if there is no artillery in the army, what should we do if we start a war?"

Wang Xiaolie shook his head with a smile: "Secretary, where will there be a big battle this winter? The Golden Army in the east of the river has no guns this year, so how can they dare to fight? Liu Yu in the north, even if they are equipped with artillery, they will not be able to fight without the Golden Army." Don't dare go south."

Wang Ruohai said: "The artillery for the army is nothing. Originally, after the First World War in Beijing, many artillery pieces were broken, and the new artillery has improved a lot. In the past half a year, in order to prepare the artillery for the newly established army, a lot of artillery pieces have been built. .The armies took the money, and we recast it.”

Wang Xiaolie nodded: "Exactly. We must try our best to provide artillery to all armies, and at the same time, we must not treat ourselves badly."

Sudden demand for so many cannons, if Wang Xiaolie didn't take the opportunity to make a fortune, he would be doing his best to the court.To be able to take out the artillery in one's own army in an emergency is to be loyal to the court.If the generals ask for more, it will be too much.

Yue Fei returned to the posthouse, carefully pondering Wang Xiaolie's words.He knew in his heart that even if he had friendship with Wang Xiaolie, he still had to deal with cash.Why does Wang Xiaolie particularly emphasize destroying money and casting cannons?I just told myself that the money should be sent to Luoyang as soon as possible, and if there is no money, there will be no guns.

It took too long to transport copper coins from Ezhou, only by water.After much deliberation, Yue Fei wrote a letter to Wang Gui.Ask him to exchange the cash in the army into gold and silver, about 3 taels, and ask Xu Qing to send it over.Don't take the waterway, change horses along the way, the sooner you get to Luoyang, the better.

In a few days, Xie Yuan and others will arrive.It's not good if they have money, or have other means, to get ahead of themselves.Wang Xiaolie's production capacity is limited. Of course, the sooner the money arrives, the sooner he can get the cannon.

One hundred cannons cost 16 guan, and Yue Fei couldn't afford such a large amount of money at once, so he could only slowly figure out a way.

Yue Fei's territory, Qi and Huang prefectures, were ravaged by Li Cheng and Kong Yanzhou for several years, and it was after the war, so they couldn't collect money in a short time.Jinghu North Road has also experienced many wars in recent years, and Yue Fei is a newcomer. It is not easy to raise money in a short time.Yue Fei was very envious of Wang Xiaolie, he used the club under his rule and kept the copper coins in the bank, so there would be no shortage of money at all.However, Wang Xiaolie's method was also learned from other places, including the imperial court, but they couldn't learn it.In recent years, the imperial court has issued several meetings, and it is impossible to stabilize the currency value at all.In less than a year, these clubs will depreciate on a large scale, no matter what.

(Sure enough, it's sunny, there is only one update today, sorry. The update may not be stable these days, sorry.)
