The revival of Shu Han

Chapter 370 Had to Send Troops ([-])
"King Ruyin, please stop!"

"Get out of the way! This king wants to see His Majesty!"

"Your Majesty, even though you belong to the clan, you can't go to His Majesty with a weapon."

"You bastard, these so-called weapons are for His Majesty to see! Will you let me? Don't let me stab you to death!"

"It's okay for the king to stab a servant to death, but to charge His Majesty with a weapon..."

"Hmph! So what if I insist on bumping into His Majesty this time, Gou Xi, stab this guy to death! Your Majesty will pursue it, and I will take care of it for you!"

"promise!"

"Your Majesty can't!"

"Your Majesty, spare your life!"

Just as the imperial study room was in chaos, Sima Yan, Pei Xiu, Zhang Hua and others heard the commotion outside and came out collectively.

"stop!"

Seeing that Gou Xi, a stunned young man, was really about to stab the eunuch who was blocking him with a long spear, Pei Xiu and Zhang Hua all shouted in unison: "What's the matter if someone dies outside the door of the emperor's study and shed a big puddle of blood?" ?

"Seventh Uncle, why are you so rude?" Even though Sima Yan was always good-tempered, he couldn't help it now.What are you doing?Do you want to assassinate me?

"Kangdang~~~~"

Sima Jun, who is known as the most commendable member of the Western Jin clan in the historical plane, used to walk around the world with a gentle face.But today, the prince's eyes were red, and his nose and lips were constantly agitating. It could be seen that he was already extremely angry.

"Your Majesty! I was ordered to lead the troops south to quell the rebellion. I went to the arsenal to check the weapons in person just now. The officer on duty actually used such a weapon to fool me! How can such a weapon have the face to be used by the soldiers? How can the soldiers be expected to win the battle with such a weapon? ?”

Following Sima Jun's roar, Sima Yan looked solemnly at the weapon thrown on the ground: the rusty tip of the gun, the bow body that had begun to rot, and the strings of the handle that had been scattered and turned into a mess. Da Dao...he understood why this always gentle and gentle seventh uncle would go berserk.

"Huh~~~" Taking a few deep breaths, Sima Yan, who barely suppressed his emotions, turned his head: "Ji Yan, who is in charge of the arsenal?"

"General Yang Xiao of the Dian Army."

The so-called Yang Xiao is the son of Yang Xiu who showed off his talents, participated in the battle for Cao Cao's establishment of the reserve, and was killed by Cao Cao.In terms of seniority, Yang Xiao is the cousin of Sima Yan's father-in-law, Yang Jun.

Corruption is extremely common in warehouses such as grain depots and arsenals.In the early years, the Shu Han was small and weak. In order to concentrate every force for the Northern Expedition, Zhuge Liang formulated an extremely strict system for warehouse management when he was alive.One of them is: a fire in a warehouse is equivalent to corruption.After Guan Yi came to power, he also insisted on this one.

This kind of regulation is very unreasonable: Oh, I worked hard to guard the warehouse with due diligence, but I accidentally caught fire and became a corrupt criminal?This is too unreasonable, right?
But there is no way.Otherwise, warehouse administrators would often pocket their own pockets, either on their own initiative or under pressure from their superiors.Wait until the amount of corruption is too large to hide.Often it was a big fire: it was a misfire, and at most it was a caretaker's dereliction of duty.Rather than corruption.

And Wei Jin, with a big family and a big business, did not have such inhumane management of warehouses.so...

Speaking of it, Yang Xiao was unlucky: the arsenal was shoddy, and there were all kinds of deficits.But if Sima Jun revealed his identity and went directly to Yang Xiao to get something as a prince, Yang Xiao would definitely receive him personally and take out the better weapons in the arsenal.But the bad thing was that the prince was used to keeping a low profile. Even after being reminded by Du Yu, he still didn't reveal his identity.Just sent Gou Xi to contact the officials of the arsenal with the imperial decree to send troops.And although Gou Tubo has killed a lot of people in the historical standard, but now he has only ah.

Therefore, the duty officer of the arsenal was very happy when he saw a half-sized man come to work: he was worried about the shortfall some time ago and didn't know where to make up for it.You are a young man who comes to work, who are you not fooling?

It's a pity that although Gou Xi is young, if he can be appreciated by Shi Jian, it means that he is not an ordinary person.Besides, the appearance of your weapon is really amazing.Do you really think I, Gou Xi, are stupid?

"Your Majesty, I request a thorough investigation of the equipment in the arsenal! As Your Majesty said, Luoyang is now the frontier. If the Shu thieves are killed and the soldiers need to come forward, how can they be allowed to use such weapons to fight against the enemy?" Defend Luoyang?"

In the original plane of history, the rebellion due to the function of the bald tree intensified.Sima Yan sent Ma Long to march west.Ma Long went to the arsenal to ask for weapons, but was also embarrassed by the relevant personnel, who used all kinds of inferior weapons to fool Ma Long.At that time, Sima Yan did not punish the people in the arsenal, but made a decree: let Ma Long's soldiers choose their own weapons.It can be regarded as settling this matter.

But the situation is different now: At that time, Malone’s soldiers were only 500 soldiers, with such a large arsenal, and no matter how corrupt, it was no problem to select high-quality weapons from it to meet the needs of this small number of people.But now Sima Jun's army is 3 people.Another thing is: Luoyang is now the border!

Therefore, Sima Yan was really outraged at this time: "Decree, let General Yang Xiao of the Dian Army run into the palace to see me!"

As a result, before Yang Xiao arrived, Yang Jun rushed over first.

"Your Majesty, regarding the matter of the arsenal, if there are other secrets, please stand back and let Rong Chen explain in detail."

"Hmph! For such a big event, we must get to the bottom of it. Marquis Lin Jin, what do you want to tell me alone? Just talk about it here!"

"I... have nothing to say."

My lord, the Luoyang arsenal is the largest arsenal in the Jin Dynasty.The army here has a total of 10 people, and the weapons must be returned to the arsenal after the usual training.Other places are field troops, and most of the weapons follow the soldiers.Therefore, if the dignitaries and generals from all walks of life want to corrupt weapons, they will only focus on the arsenal!I don't know how many clans and aristocratic families who share the profits from here, how dare I tell them in such a public place?Do I still want to be a human?

When the monarch and his subjects were in a stalemate, Yang Xiao who received the news ran in sweating profusely.

"General Yang Xiao of the Chen Dian Army pays homage to His Majesty, it is a death penalty! Please be lenient and give me a chance, and King Ruyin will definitely return with satisfaction!"

"Hmph! Of course, this king has to get good enough weapons for the soldiers of this expedition! But if you think that this is enough, this king will be satisfied, then you are underestimating this king! This king has already asked His Majesty, Strictly investigate the affairs of the arsenal!"

"Your Majesty, please forgive me. I have been in charge of the arsenal for more than four years. In the past four years, the country has been in constant wars, and the weapons are extremely worn out. In addition, in the past year, the training intensity of the [-] Chinese troops has been extremely high, and the weapon damage rate has remained high. It is also difficult to be an official!"

"Hmph! Of course, this king knows that the country has been fighting frequently in recent years, and sometimes it has been defeated. It means that even people and weapons have been lost. But there are more or less soldiers in the country, and there are many craftsmen allocated to the arsenal by the country! The amount of pig iron, wrought iron, and lumber is increasing instead of decreasing! The annual funds allocated to the arsenal for making weapons have fully doubled in the past four years!"

When Sima Jun said this, Yang Jun's hat almost flew up: "You, you are deliberately targeting my Yang family, right? Otherwise, how can you make it so clear? By the way, the share of the arsenal, You guys have always pretended to be aloof and never get involved. Hmph! Hypocrisy!
"Your Majesty, what King Ruyin said is not all the truth. In the account book of the arsenal, but..."

"Okay, shut up for me!"

Speaking of what is going on here, Sima Yan is already very clear.What makes him feel extremely sad is not the corruption of the military library - Dajin's official style has never been good, and he is clear about this.What really made him feel uncomfortable was that this seventh uncle, who usually seemed gentle and refined and never got involved in any kind of political struggle, actually fired at the Yang family at this time.

But my seventh uncle, this is a war.Is it really appropriate for you to engage in political debate at this time?Also, no matter how unbearable the Yang family is, as foreign relatives, the Yang family is an indispensable force to maintain the balance of the court.If the Yang family is really brought down, how can the emperor sleep well at night?

"For this matter, General Dianjun please allocate high-quality weapons to Uncle Qi as much as possible. Uncle Qi must be satisfied."

"The minister obeys the order."

"As for the inventory of the arsenal, of course it must be carried out. But now the most important thing is to dispatch troops quickly. Last year's Guanzhong war, if the Chinese army hadn't procrastinated and delayed the war opportunity, how could the situation of the war develop like this. My lords, the country is troubled and we have to tide over the difficulties It also requires the sincere cooperation of all ministers. Everything must be prioritized."

"Your Majesty taught me the lesson, I will take note of it."

"Hey, that's it. Seventh uncle, please prepare quickly. Try to send troops within half a month. It's the end of September. I heard from the general that in two or three months, Shangyong will be ready." It's going to start snowing. When it does, it will be too difficult to get in from outside the mountain."

"The minister obeyed the order and resolutely dispatched troops within half a month and entered Shangyong within one month."
