Chapter Reluctantly

He Weixian and Kurigis began to talk while walking, but it seemed to be getting stronger and stronger. When they walked to the gate of the palace, they seemed to have something to say. They stood on the steps without going their separate ways and started chatting again. The soldiers standing guard watched them squat when they stood tired, and then sat on the steps and said,

"When did He Wanhu and Shushu become so close?" The soldiers guarding the palace city belonged to the Qiexue army. They were used to seeing the important officials and nobles in the court. They had never seen Shushu and chatted endlessly at the door. A grandchildren from Mongolia who had just entered Qiexue asked.

"Don't you understand? Hera must have been in Qiexue for only a few days, but how could we know the mystery!" The Baihu who was leading the post snorted, "He Wanhu was a close minister of the Khan. He was the guards in the palace that year, and even our Qiexue could not compare to us. We Wanhu would laugh when we saw him."

"When he still has such a glorious place, why can't he even enter the imperial city now and have to stay outside the city?" Hera must have been more curious. He knew that the distance he cared about with the Khan should be the distance of the Khan camp. The guards of the Khan camp were the Qixue army, followed by the Mongolian guards' personal army. The Han army could only guard the Khan camp on the periphery and could not get close to the Khan camp at all.

"If you don't say that you have little knowledge and don't understand the affairs in the palace!" Baihu sneered and laughed at him, "You don't know that He Wanhu is the official who made great contributions to the Khan's succession. But like the Zhongshu Ling, Shushu, and the Shangshu Provincial Department, several of the ministers of the Shangshu Provincial Department were in the hands of He Wanhu at that time, and life and death were all in his thoughts."

"Oh, He Wanhu actually has such great achievements? Let me tell me!" Hera Beard listened to the half-word and begged with an itchy smile.

"I heard that there is still a jar of good wine hidden in your tent..."

"Tonight, hundreds of households will drink hard, and they will not come back if they are drunk!" Hera did not know what it meant. He was stranded in the palace, and the supply of materials was short of wine, and it was even more difficult to find. Now a jar of bad wine can be sold for one or two gold. The people who entered Chiexue are all powerful children. Even if the family is not short of money, it is rare. In order to satisfy his curiosity, he gave up his love without hesitation.

"He Wanhu is really a loyal minister!" Baihu sighed, "Let's not talk about the fact that he used up his family's wealth to seek good medicine for the Swords. When he was fighting for the stockpile, you probably still released your horse on the grassland. I don't know the critical situation at that time. All forces defected to their own future. All the governments in the capital all hidden private troops were preparing to force the palace. However, He Wanhu only listened to the order of Xianhan, and did not lean towards either side. He wore armor and personally led his guards in the palace, and did not leave Xianhan's side and left the side of Xianhan day and night, so that no one dared to act rashly with one soldier."

"I heard that on the day when the sweat died, the blood killed in the capital flowed into a river, and countless powerful people lost their heads!" Hera said.

"Shh..." Baihu raised his hand and covered his mouth, lowered his voice and cursed, "You have lived enough. That day, He Wanhu strangled Brother Sang with his bowstrings, and the heads of the two of them were killed by the two of them in the capital."

"Ah..." Herabi was so scared that he shrank his neck, and felt a chill on his back. He didn't expect that He Wanhu, who looked gentle like those civil servants, would be so cruel and ruthless. After watching for a moment, he saw that they didn't seem to hear it, and then asked softly, "Baihu, why didn't He Wanhu enter the center, but went to Taiyuan Road and was just a comforting envoy?"

"This is He Wanhu's cleverness!" Baihu said with a chuckling, "Think about how many people he killed in the capital, they were all sect kings and powerful people, and they also put down the eldest prince Ganmala. It is said that they still hold the secret order of the Sang Han in their hands. Whoever is not afraid of this, even the Sang Han must be worried. Can he live a better life in the court? It is better to be a local official and the Secretariat will make them grateful for their mercy."

"Oh, I didn't expect it to be so tortuous. If I didn't listen to the teachings of Baihu, I wouldn't know that He Wanhu was so capable!" Herabi nodded repeatedly.

"He Wanhu had a foresight. He secretly arranged a retreat and asked Yu Xianhan to be appointed as the prince. Although our Dayuan Sect kings were everywhere, have you ever seen the Han people who were named kings? Even when Kublai Khan pacified the northwest and destroyed the Han people of the Southern Dynasties, they were only granted marquis in the end!" Baihu said with admiration.

"Oh, then he could live in the imperial city like the Secretariat and others, and go to the palace to discuss politics!" Herada said in wonder.

"This is the cleverness of others. If you don't make a proud contribution and act in a low-key manner, you can relieve Dahan. Now that there is something wrong, Dahan will remember him. The Secretariat Ling asked him for advice, even Shushu had to ask him for advice. So when people are in power, don't be arrogant, and don't bully those honest people. Maybe one day they will become successful. Boy, you will understand after staying for a long time. This court is not so easy to mess around. People who die every day will lose their official positions..." Baihu looked at the soldiers who were still ignorant, and then looked at the two people who were still talking in a low voice and sighed...

"I have a lot of gains when talking to you!" said Korigis. "I would like to ask a question, all of which say that the South Arms are sharp, and the muskets can break heavy armor. Those who are middle Arms are either dead or injured; the artillery is even more powerful. The people and horses are broken under the bombardment, and the walls fall down. Unfortunately, after I entered the Central Plains, the war was coming to an end and I had never seen it with my own eyes. Is this true?"

"Sir Shu, you are polite. The power of the South Military Arms is not a rumor, but a fact." He Weixian said, "I was ordered by the Khan to go to the front to supervise the battle. That was witnessed with my own eyes. The range of the South Military muskets can reach more than a hundred steps, and the farthest artillery can reach hundreds of steps. We lined up to meet the enemy and fought, and there were already heavy casualties. With the cavalry as well as the range of the bow and crossbow, they were shot and dropped one after another, and those who survived in front of the enemy's formation were less than two or three."

"It's so powerful!" Korigis frowned, "If we keep rushing to the formation with ten thousand cavalry, can we break it?"

"Haha, it's difficult!" He Weixian smiled bitterly, "If the Southern Army is not as good as the array, or the number of people is far inferior to our army, you can try it. However, the Southern Army will send several cavalry to march, and camping will definitely set up camps, with few loopholes to take advantage of the terrain. However, the Southern Army is very good at using terrain to ambush, and even raiding for a hundred miles."

"In the Battle of Fuli, the Qincha Guards reinforced Fuli from Xuzhou, trying to break the enemy's besiege. When they arrived at the post station in the valley on Xufu Post Road, Duwanhu Halihasun was a veteran of the hundred battles. He also sent a cavalry to detect that there were no troops from the Southern Army in the surrounding area. However, the next day, there were Song troops on both sides of the mountains, blocking the entrance of the valley. First, bombarding the valley with artillery, and then launching an attack with infantry. One day, the fierce battle was annihilated, and the entire army of Qincha Guards filled the ravines of more than ten feet deep in the valley. No one dared to walk in the valley at night!

"The Qinchawei is a powerful brigade in our dynasty, and the soldiers are brave. Hari Hasun is a rare brave general in our dynasty. Whether it is to quell the northwest rebellion or destroy the Song Dynasty, he was not defeated. Unexpectedly, the entire army was wiped out in one day. I suddenly heard it and couldn't believe it. I thought it was just his carelessness that it was the Southern Army who rushed to attack a hundred miles overnight." Korigis said.

"Oh, it's not a big deal that Shu Shu didn't know that since the Southern Dynasties recovered the Jiangnan War, our dynasty suffered heavy losses, but no one dared to make a mistake and blamed the dead. Those who were superiors still held their backs and were still intoxicated by the old things of horses striding around the world, but they didn't know that the world had changed, and bows and horses could not defeat firearms. Therefore, it was not surprising that the same mistakes were still repeated in the battle of the Southern Dynasties and North Invasion. Even after the peace talks, they still didn't wake up and thought that the Central Plains was the world of our Iron Cavalry. The Southern Army could not get it well. It was ridiculous to think about it!" He Weixian said depressedly.

"The firearm is sharp. The Khan has ordered the Ministry of War A and the military battles to study and imitate it. He Wanhu's muskets should be known that they have been tried to produce artillery and muskets. As long as they are produced in large quantities, it will not be so easy for the Southern Army to win as easily as before. He Wanhu doesn't have to worry too much!" Kurigis comforted him.

He Weixian smiled bitterly after hearing this. He knew that after suffering losses on the battlefield, the Meng Yuan also began to use the firearms picked up and seized on the battlefield to imitate them. Shaanxi brought together Fengzhou A Bureau A, Yingzhou A Bureau A, Pingdi County A Bureau, Shanyin County A Bureau, Baideng County A Bureau and other institutions to specialize in the production of armor and swords and other weapons. For this purpose, the imperial court specially established the Guangshengku, responsible for managing military products such as Pingyang and Taiyuan.

However, as He Weixian knows, after obtaining the samples, each A bureau decomposes and inspects them, and then uses craftsmen who are "invited" from the Southern Dynasty through various channels to preside over the manufacturing process. However, the firearms made are only in shape and cannot be used normally. The fire device of the musket breaks after only a few times, and even the barrel of the gun will explode, let alone achieve the performance of the Southern Army musket.

As for the imitation of artillery, it is also difficult to refine iron of the same quality as that of the Southern Dynasties. In order to achieve the same range and power, it can only be solved by increasing the thickness of the artillery body. As a result, the weight of the artillery soared, several times that of the Southern Dynasties. However, it is still difficult to compare with the Southern Dynasties artillery.

In order to avoid being punished and to deceive the court's money, the A Bureau bribed the Ministry of War officials to use the collected firearms to pretend that they were made, and sent them to the capital to successfully test the shooting in public. The Khan was of course happy to see it. Not only did he reward the relevant people, but some officials were also promoted.

Everyone got the benefits, and only one person was concealed by the Khan, so even if it was mass production, it was actually not created at all. But He Weixian also explained this matter, and there were too many people offended, not to mention that he didn't want to say it at all, so he said vaguely: "Well, it is said that the exemption is available, but the officials have never seen it, and they have used it even more, so I don't know the details."

"Then He Wanhu thought that the Southern Dynasties would really invade our dynasty again this time and invade the Central Plains in the north?" Korigis saw that it was getting late and asked what he wanted to know the most.
