Crowned the New Han Dynasty

Chapter 1119. Observing the workshop for Xuanjia Military Affairs

On the official road of the officialdom, a carriage moved slowly forward, flanked by dozens of soldiers responsible for guarding it.

Some of these soldiers were on horseback and some were on foot, but they all wore black armor and walked in similar steps, appearing to be well-trained.

On the carriage, Bei Gongchun and Mo Anjie were sitting. The former was pulling out a bottle of wine from the corner of the carriage, taking a deep breath, and then made a sound of relief.

"The carriages in Youzhou are really mysterious. No matter how flat the ground is, you can still feel a little bumpy when riding other carriages in the past. As a result, this carriage drove through potholes and sat on it as smoothly as before. It is unusual at first glance. Good stuff!"

He led an army on an expedition and also commanded chariot soldiers, so he was a knowledgeable person. He knew that there must be something wonderful in the frame of this carriage. However, he was not very good at this craftsmanship, so he knew it. But I don’t know why.

However, as he spoke, he brought the topic back to the old eunuch.

"This is because you always have face. With your name so prominent, even the Youzhou Xuanjia Army has to come to protect you. The whole journey is smooth and respectful. Even if you are asked to sit on such a carriage, if a certain family Come here by yourself, I guess not many people in Youzhou will even look at me."

It was precisely because after entering Youzhou that he had been hearing about how elite the Xuanjia Army was and how strict its military discipline was. Now that the Xuanjia Army was guarding him, Bei Gongchun felt particularly at ease and felt an indescribable sense of pride.

Even Mo Anjie, who only wanted revenge and had nothing else in mind, felt warm in his heart after being respected by the officials along Youzhou. After all, he was an eunuch in the past, even if some people were afraid of him and respected him. , but there are not many people who really respect it.

However, now everyone in Youzhou knows his loyalty and respects him very much.

"It's a pity that I can't accompany the emperor now, and I can't behave like a minister..."

Thinking about it later, he felt a little regretful.

The two people in the carriage were talking, and the carriage, which was running smoothly, suddenly stopped.

"What's wrong?" Bei Gongjun asked through the car door.

A voice came from outside the car: "This is a routine inspection. Please wait for a while. Jixian County is ahead, so the security here will be a little tighter."

"I see, it's natural. Jixian County is the core of Youzhou, so we need to be more cautious." Mo Anjie agreed with this.

The inspection did not last long, and the convoy was soon on the road again. With so many black armor soldiers supporting it, the person doing the inspection knew that there would not be much of a problem. It was just that the rules were there and no one could break them. Even Chen Even for himself, he used several practical actions to declare to everyone that even he, the general who conquered the north, was not qualified to violate the rules.

Under this kind of guidance, the top and bottom results will be achieved, and of course it will be difficult for others to specialize.

Fortunately, after this last inspection, according to the guide's words, they finally arrived in Jixian County, not far from the city.

However, as he continued to move forward, Bei Gongchun frowned and said, "The atmosphere here is much turbid."

Mo An nodded and said, "It seems like something is burning outside." As he said that, the old eunuch opened the curtains and looked outside. He saw several houses surrounded by earthen walls at the end of the farmland in the distance. Each one has a tall chimney, with thick smoke rising from it.

Seeing this scene, Kitamiya Junya understood why he suddenly felt that the air was so turbid. "I wonder where that place is over there, why is there so much black mist?"

The fierce general did not lower his voice deliberately, and this question was heard by the guide sitting outside.

So the guide said responsibly: "That's the workshop area over there. There are hundreds of workshops in Jixian County, all gathered in one place, that's over there."

"So that's where the workshop is!" Bei Gongchun listened and paid attention, "Can you go over and have a look?"

Along the way, he could hear people mentioning Youzhou Workshop anytime and anywhere, and most of them were related to military matters. They were either talking about artillery, or talking about some Mohist weapons, which made Bei Gongchun feel itchy.

You know, if ordinary people brag about their own military prowess, Bei Gongjun is a general who has fought a hundred battles, and at most he will laugh it off, but the Xuanjia Army is different, they have amazing achievements!
This record is also different from the record in the general sense. Other armies can say how many victories they have experienced and what traditions they have, but the Xuanjia Army came out of nowhere and wiped out a country in one battle. Method, the achievements will be engraved in the hearts of people all over the world.

Nowadays, all parties in the world are frantically collecting information about the Xuanjia Army. Previously, Mo Anjie and Bei Gongchun would encounter many obstacles along the way. It is precisely because spies from all parties are becoming more and more rampant, and they will not hesitate to take risks for a little bit of secret information. .

In addition, the research on the Xuanjia Army has been put on the agenda by all parties. Sixty-seven out of ten of them focus on sharp weapons, mainly artillery.

As a military strategist of the Yongzhan sect, Bei Gongchun is not exempt from the common practice. He has long been coveting the secrets of Youzhou Workshop. Now he feels that with Mo Anjie as his backer, he might be able to observe a few things, not to mention stealing. , at least it can relieve the craving, which is also good.

Unfortunately, as soon as this proposal was made, it was rejected by the guide: "I hope General Beigong can understand that even we can't easily approach this important workshop. If you want to take a peek, it will be even harder."

This was said quite tactfully, and I just told Bei Gongchun directly not to think too much and to go on the road.

"Is there nothing we can do?"

Bei Gongchun didn't give up yet, with a look of distress on his face.

The guide thought for a while and said, "Then there is only one way."

"What way?"

"If ordinary people want to use this method, I am afraid it will take a long time, but for General Beigong, it is a matter of one sentence." The guide did not give a direct answer, but first said this.

"Don't hold your breath, just say it." Bei Gongchun's spirit became more and more excited.

"That's the general. You also join the Xuanjia Army. With your qualifications, you will definitely become a general. It's only a matter of time to lead an army. In this way, whether it's training or getting familiar with the equipment, you have to go to work often. If we understand it, wouldn’t we be able to observe it?”

The guide said, probably guessing Bei Gongchun's expression, and there was a smile in his words: "If ordinary people want to go in and out of the workshop frequently, it will not be easy for even the officials of the General's Palace. Only Military strategists and generals can do this, but ordinary people must either pass the martial arts examination first, study in the martial arts hall, and then become the leader of the team and slowly be promoted, or directly join the army and be slowly promoted. But General Beigong, you have made outstanding achievements in battle. There is no need for this.”
