After stepping on all the noble families, the empress asked me to marry her?

Chapter 151: The monk who leads the way? Production and construction of the army! (6K)

"This damn monk."

"Finally I realized it."

"How much trouble will what I'm doing bring to Dayu?!"

"But it's too late now!"

Looking at the deduction of the Jiantian Mirror, the Sixth Princess Ji Changwei cursed.

Although the words were still polite, after all, he was only thirteen years old and came from a royal family. In her opinion, this was already an insult.

The fourth princess Ji Changxi next to her calmly looked at the lovely little girl, then shook her head and did not say anything. The monk's behavior was actually in line with Chen Huaixin's future plans!

"otherwise."

"He doesn't have to."

"Release the Catholic missionary."

"He should be looking forward to the clash between the two empires more than anyone else!"

Ji Changxi thought in his heart.

By the way, she eliminated Ji Changwei as a competitor. She doesn’t even know what her future husband thinks. Let this little girl continue to be cute!
When Prime Minister Wang Qianhe heard the words of the Catholic missionary, his heart sank.

"Sure enough, my guess was correct."

"The Parthian Empire was unable to defeat the Roman Empire."

“So they were forced to allow Catholicism to spread in their own country!”

"As for the Zoroastrian missionaries causing trouble, judging from the Catholic missionaries' usual reaction, it should be some kind of compromise brought about by allowing missionaries to preach!"

Wang Qianhe thought so.

But he felt inexplicably nervous.

Because in his opinion, the Parthian Empire is stronger than the Cheng State, and the Roman Empire, which is stronger than the Parthian Empire and capable of launching expeditions, is now constantly looking for the location of the Cheng State!
Although in the future of the Mirror of Heaven, the Roman Empire will need to search for at least ten years before it can make any discoveries, but this kind of thing... may change in the future!
"Just like when we were deducing the candidates on the gold list before, sometimes accidental changes would lead to a different future. For example, I, Cheng Guo, persisted for half a year or a year!"

"Sometimes, due to the empress's fury, she would directly order the removal of certain scholars from the Golden List. The new deductions made afterwards would lead to drastic changes in their future!"

"That is to say, the Catholic missionaries in charge of the search are likely to discover the location of our country in advance, and then inform Rome and the expeditionary force in advance."

"In this case, our Cheng country is likely to be attacked by foreign countries, and... destroyed!"

Even Wang Qianhe knew that the possibility of this happening was extremely small.

After all, the deduction of the Heavenly Mirror is unlikely to affect the Roman Empire, which is thousands of miles away. Even the missionaries who were lucky enough to come to the Western Regions have a certain probability that they will not appear in the future again!
But even if there is only the slightest possibility, he cannot help but be on guard!

"If we want to be on guard, we must get Chen Huaixin to serve as an official in the court as soon as possible!"

"Only under his leadership can Chengguo change the current situation!"

"Only with his help can Chengguo face powerful foreign enemies!"

"But those officials from the noble families...will definitely stop this, right?!"

Wang Qianhe looked at the official from the aristocratic family.

After seeing the deduction of the Mirror of Heaven, those people also realized how powerful the Roman Empire was.

But they were not worried at all, instead they had smiles on their faces.

"because."

"The stronger Rome becomes."

"Yuguoyue is more likely to fail!"

"We can't wait to see Chen Huaixin's military defeat!"

These officials from aristocratic families were full of anticipation.

Wang Qianhe narrowed his eyes slightly.

He was already thinking.

Wait until the deduction is over.

Should we find a reason to lock them up in the hall first?

"At least let us...bring Chen Huaixin in first!"

……

【The monk was taken away by Catholic missionaries.】

【but. 】

【He was not harmed.】

[He was not tortured.]

【on the contrary.】

[He was treated quite well.]

[Although we cannot say that everything is provided for us. 】

【But at least his requests will be met. 】

【"Apart from."】

[“You can’t let me leave.”]

【The monk sighed secretly.】

[He was immediately escorted out of the Parthian Empire by those Catholic missionaries.]

[As for where he would be sent, the monk could naturally guess, it was none other than Rome! ]

[“Although.”]

【“My purpose.”】

[“I want to go to Rome.”]

[“But not in this way!”]

【The monk suddenly felt.】

【Master Xinkong's arrangement was a bit too reckless.】

[In this place thousands of miles away from Yu Country. 】

[Monks like them, with bald heads, monk robes, and faces that don't fit in with the locals, will easily be noticed no matter what they want to do. It's better for them to pretend to be merchants and conceal their identities! ]

【It's fine now.】

【Just arrived half a day ago. 】

[They were directly abducted by Catholic missionaries.]

[Even though I know I can't possibly get hurt.]

[But the monk still couldn't help but complain.]

【"Amitabha."】

[“It’s over now.”]

【“I have to eat first.”】

【The monk asked the Catholic missionary for a portion of rice. 】

[Those people were quite polite. They brought him food that he could eat, sat next to him and waited for him to finish eating before asking about the information about Yuguo.]

[The monk no longer answered them half-truthfully like he did in the Western Regions. He had heard about some of the special weapons of the Yu army, but he didn't say anything.]

【even.】

[While they were getting excited, the clever monk asked them about their views on flying in a joking manner.]

[These Catholic missionaries answered directly with a righteous look on their faces: "Yes, as long as you believe in our Lord and wash away your original sin, even ordinary people will be blessed by our Lord and touch the sky!"]

[“Now, everyone in your sect should have washed away their original sins, right? There must be someone who can fly! What does that feel like?” The monk asked with a curious look on his face, full of anticipation. ]

【“…You will know later,” the preacher said vaguely. 】

[This immediately made the monk understand.]

【It turned out to be in the Roman Empire. 】

[The hot air balloon has not yet been born! ]

[His previous worries and fears, fearing that he would bring trouble to Dayu, also disappeared at this moment! ]

“There’s not even a hot air balloon.”

[“Not to mention the air force!”]

[“No matter how strong Rome and the expeditionary army are.”]

[“Hit the ground from the air!”]

[“It’s the mountain they can’t get over!”]

[The monk's mood finally calmed down. ]

[He even began to wonder, with such a level, how could he dare to go on an expedition! ]

[Is it because the countries in this area are weaker than each other that Rome has hallucinations? ]

【"but."】

【"anyway."】

[“At least there’s no need to worry about Rome’s military might.”]

[“I can also pay more attention to my own safety!”]

[The monk is already pretending to be honest.]

[After leaving the Parthian Empire for a long time. ]

【After the missionaries relax their vigilance against him. 】

[On a certain day, he asked these people what they wanted to do by taking him to Rome.]

[The Catholic missionaries did not hide their purpose and directly stated it.]

[“We want you to return to Dayu with the expeditionary force!”]

【Catholic missionaries look at the monk.】

[Their eyes were filled with solemnity, because this act of bringing the enemy back to their homeland would most likely be directly rejected, or even end on their own if they found an opportunity! ]

【betray!】

【Guide the way! 】

[It is unforgivable no matter where you are! ]

[And this Buddhist monk who traveled thousands of miles to another country was probably just like them, absolutely loyal to his homeland. Otherwise, how could he do something that he would never be able to return to! ]

[“We must keep an eye on him at all times to prevent this monk from committing suicide!”]

[Some missionaries thought this in their hearts.]

【However.】

Let them.

【I didn't expect it. 】

【After the monk heard their words. 】

[A bright smile suddenly appeared on that face. ]

[“That is to say.”]

[“Are you planning to send me back to Yu Country?”]

【“Thank you so much!”】

……

In the Golden Palace.

Looking at the deduced picture.

Ji Changling couldn't help but laugh and said, "I didn't expect this monk to be so smart. He was able to get the Roman military strength so easily, and he played dumb in the end in a very decent way."

"Sixth sister, you should be relieved now. Yu Country will not be affected."

Her eyes turned to Ji Changwei.

Ji Changwei’s nervous look before.

But she has always been aware of it.

After hearing the question from her second sister, Ji Changwei immediately showed a hint of embarrassment on her face and said, "Although Rome has not yet mastered the hot air balloon, it can be used for expeditions, so it should not be underestimated."

"It is true that it should not be underestimated, but that is relative. At least for Dayu, a country that cannot even control the sky is not worthy of being called an opponent," Ji Changling made a decisive judgment.

As someone who had been playing with guns and sticks since she was a child, she knew very well what a great advantage occupying the sky could bring. Not to mention the earth-shaking objects, just shooting arrows downwards would be enough to cause the Roman army to collapse!
"Or."

"It's weird that Dayu is like this."

"Countries like Rome must have been influenced by similar immortals. It's normal that they don't dare to touch the sky."

"Before Chen Huaixin appeared, before the hot air balloon was invented, who would have thought that mortals could touch the sky?"

The eldest princess Ji Changning also spoke at this time.

The ancient age of immortals.

Of course, it is not just the Central Plains that is affected.

Because judging from the records in ancient books.

Occasionally, the immortal would engage in fierce battles with the blond-haired, blue-eyed monster in the sky.

The Roman Catholic missionaries basically all had blond hair and blue eyes, exactly as described in ancient books!
“They are all influenced by the immortals.”

“Their minds are imprisoned.”

“Which country will be able to get out of this situation first.”

"Which country will be able to take the initiative in the future!"

Ji Changxi's voice also rang out.

From the perspective of the Catholic missionary.

The Lord they were talking about should have existed in the past, but with the passing of the immortal era, he disappeared from the world.

It’s just that they are still obsessed with the so-called master, just like the previous Chengguo was in awe of the immortals.

The Yu Kingdom led by Chen Huaixin has pulled the immortal down from the altar!

Think of this.

A smile appeared on Ji Changxi's face.

But the faces of those officials from aristocratic families looked very unhappy.

Before they even witnessed Chen Huaixin's first military defeat, the response of the Catholic missionaries had already allowed them to foresee how one-sided the future battles would be!
"No!"

"Also a possibility!"

"The Catholic missionary."

"I don't actually know the true military strength of Rome."

"It's just like that monk is hiding the true trump card of Yu Kingdom!"

"Even if Rome really did have something that touched the sky, it may not have been told by the missionaries!"

These officials from aristocratic families thought so in their hearts.

They prayed that this was the real situation!

Otherwise, wait until the two countries go to war in the future.

Rome was defeated.

Wouldn't that allow Chen Huaixin to show off again? !

"The Catholic missionaries...are absolutely wrong!"

……

[May, the twelfth year of Jingping.]

【When the monk was kidnapped and taken to Rome. 】

[Yuguo is still developing in an orderly manner. 】

[When Chen Huaixin arranged for people to go to the grassland to explore the coal mines, he also asked the Minister of War to send military generals to capture the person who disrespected Dayu.]

【“It should be people waiting for coal mines.”】

【“It shouldn’t be the coal mine and others.”】

【“That would only waste time.”】

【Chen Huaixin explained.】

[The Minister of War naturally nodded in agreement.]

【And when this task. 】

【After being handed down to the generals. 】

[Their mood suddenly became excited.]

【even.】

【Some people also proposed. 】

[Should we take the citizens of some small countries in the Western Regions? 】

[They were also captured and sent to the grassland to dig coal! ]

【This way they will have more military operations! 】

【But after thinking about it, the Minister of War rejected this proposal. 】

[“That’s not necessary.”]

[“The Western Regions are not Jiaozhi.”]

【“Maintain stability over there.”】

[“It will benefit our country more.”]

[“If we arrest people there at will… I’m afraid it will affect the merchants’ trade.”]

[The Minister of War said so.]

【Although.】

[The countries in the Western Regions are very weak. ]

[But even rabbits will bite when they are angry. ]

[Even if they don't dare to confront Yu Jun openly. ]

[But they can hide in the Western Regions and attack passing merchants from Yu Country like bandits.]

[That would give Yuguo a headache! ]

[“The importance of the Silk Road and the stability of the countries in the Western Regions far outweighs arresting people for coal mining.”]

【"and."】

[“The grassland is so big.”]

[“That’s enough for you to toss around.”]

[The Minister of War sent these generals away.]

【Afterwards.】

[He went to the Minister of Industry to discuss the establishment of a military school.]

【Because after August, we will start recruiting students. 】

[“That is to say.”]

[“The result of your discussion with His Majesty last December.”]

[“It’s May now and you’re telling me that you’re going to build a military academy?”]

【“Three months.”】

[“Believe it or not, I can slap you to death!”]

[The Minister of Industry was somewhat annoyed.]

【Such a short time.】

【Build a school.】

[Do you really think that his Ministry of Industry is a god who can make it happen for them?! ]

[The Minister of War also knew that he was in the wrong, so he smiled awkwardly and said, "I was too busy before and forgot to inform you."]

[He was not lying. Ever since he learned about the missionaries from Rome, he has devoted most of his energy to this matter. After the interrogation, he even sent a number of scouts to explore the more specific situation in the Western Regions! ]

[“Although.”]

【“Whether it’s a businessman.”】

【“He’s still a Buddhist monk.”】

[“Detailed information is coming in continuously.”]

[“But our military department also needs to investigate again.”]

【“I also guarantee that this information is absolutely credible!”】

[The Minister of War is still very cautious.]

He knows very well.

[If the Roman expeditionary force really appears in the future, it will most likely be fought in the Western Regions. Neither His Majesty nor he wants the war to break out in the homeland of Yu Country! ]

【"after all."】

[“You can fight however you want anywhere else.”]

【“As long as there is a little loss in your own home.”】

[“That would be heartbreaking!”]

[The Minister of War thought so.]

[He planned to persuade His Majesty to find a country in the Western Regions as a base after the scouts verified the information, so that the Yu army could get supplies quickly without extending the supply line longer! ]

[The Minister of Industry naturally knew that the Minister of War was very busy recently, but with the six ministries and the cabinet, who wasn't busy every day? ]

[Otherwise, do you really think that Yuguo's current prosperous situation just fell from the sky?! ]

[“It takes three months to build a military academy.”]

[“It’s not impossible.”]

【"but."】

【“We don’t have enough manpower right now.”】

[“You must send soldiers to help with the work!”]

【The Minister of Industry put forward conditions.】

[The Minister of War did not dare to make a decision.]

[Because the deployment of soldiers must be approved by His Majesty, otherwise if something goes wrong, he will be doomed! ]

【And when this matter. 】

【When reported to Chen Huaixin.】

【Chen Huaixin looked at the memorial and then belatedly remembered something.】

【“How could I have forgotten?”】

【“The current grassland conditions.”】

[“It’s just that sending troops to station and protect is a bit too wasteful.”]

[“It can be completely reformed into a production and construction army!”]

……

"Production and construction of the army?"

"This Chen Huaixin..."

"What did you think of?!"

Duke Weiguo looked at the deduction and frowned slightly.

The shock brought by Rome had not yet allowed them to calm down, and Chen Huaixin's ideas attracted their attention again.

Especially for military generals.

You can tell by just listening.

It must be a reform of the military.

They are naturally more interested!

"I have previously assigned new positions to the army, which has increased the strength of the Yu Army."

"It's only been ten months, and we're going to reform the military again?"

"Then the strength of Yu Jun...won't it be explosively increased?!"

Many generals showed envy in their eyes.

Unfortunately, they, Chengguo, were unable to learn the new position at all!
I don’t know about this reform.

Can you provide them with some experience?
"Even if I can't help."

"I can take a quick look."

"It can be considered as...satisfaction!"

A general sighed.

Can only be viewed but not used.

How can I be truly satisfied!

However, given the current situation in Chengguo, let alone carrying out reforms, any major fluctuations would probably bring disaster!

This also made them look forward to Chen Huaixin entering the court as soon as possible, to at least bring a little change to their Cheng army!

Wang Qianhe, who was standing next to him, pulled his thoughts away from Rome and looked at the deduction of the Jiantian Mirror. He was not concerned about the so-called military reform. What the Minister of Works said shocked him the most.

“It’s only three months.”

"Can you build a school?"

"Yuguo's infrastructure capabilities."

“It’s really too scary!”

Wang Qianhe's eyes widened slightly.

This not only requires a strong country, but also requires enough talents and strong personnel dispatch capabilities!

The construction of cement roads that began in the second year of Jingping and the civil engineering construction that began in the early days of the founding of Dayu have trained a large number of professionals for them!
If these people were gathered together.

Let them build something together.

"Then... it might create an unprecedented wonder!"

……

【Same month。】

【Chen Huaixin summoned the Prime Minister and the six ministers.】

【Although.】

[This recent private meeting. ]

[It seems to be a bit too frequent. ]

[But whether it is the Prime Minister or the six ministers, they are all accustomed to the political characteristics of the Yu Kingdom, where small meetings are held for major events. ]

[This is indeed much better than arguing in the court for a long time without reaching a conclusion, and then asking Your Majesty to make a judgment. ]

【only.】

【What the Minister of War and the Minister of Works did not expect was. 】

[This meeting is actually related to them! ]

【"because."】

[“I want to mobilize some of the soldiers.”]

[“Go to the Ministry of Industry to help build the military academy.”]

【"so."】

[“Your Majesty has the idea of reforming the army?!”]

[The Prime Minister and the five Shangshu looked at each other in surprise.]

【Only the Minister of War became excited. 】

【after all.】

【The new positions added to the army last time. 】
