Iron Dynasty

"The emperor forgive me!"

The ministers had never seen Xiao Wenxuan so angry, Cui Hao shuddered and immediately apologized.

"Hmph, you all stand on the dry shore with high-sounding voices. Do you think I am really a fool? You can't take back the land of Youzhou, that's the territory of the barbarians." Xiao Wenxuan continued.

Then he scanned the entire Chengqing Hall and said: "Since you disagree with King Qi's method, yes, now I give you the opportunity, no matter who wins the land of Youzhou, I will reward that piece of land to whom, dare you ?"

The civil servants headed by Cui Hao suddenly shrank their heads and did not dare to speak. They could only show interest in their mouths, but when it was their turn to go to the battlefield, they were already shaking with fear.

After waiting for a long time, no one spoke, Xiao Wenxuan sneered, "It seems that no one else is willing to go to the grassland to fight for me. In this case, I promised King Qi's request. As a reward, I promised King Qi. ."

"Thank you Father!" Xiao Ming said with a bow.

It has to be said that Xiao Wenxuan just now finally looked like an emperor, domineering sideways.

Xiao Wenxuan sat down on the dragon chair again, then looked at Wang Wei, "Wang Wei, what reward do you want?"

"The emperor, the younger brother just wants to let King Qi sell some artillery to the younger brother." Wei Wang hesitated and said.

The three princes were wary when he heard the words: "Uncle Three Emperors, King Zhao, King Liang and other northern vassals need artillery to defend against the barbarians. It is understandable. I don't know why the three emperors want this artillery?"

"Wang Wei, the third prince is right, what do you want this artillery to do?" Xiao Wenxuan also frowned.

King Wei sighed at this time and said: "The emperor didn't know anything about it. His courtier wanted this artillery to defend against Japanese pirates from the sea. These years, the merchant ships that the courtier went to sea were often plundered by Japanese pirates, and even more. The coast is raging, and the ministers are in distress, and the Japanese pirates are thousands, tens of thousands, every time they go ashore, and they return to the sea after looting, which is really a headache."

Speaking of the Japanese pirates, the three princes stopped talking immediately, because the Chu king’s fief had also been harassed by the Japanese pirates. This was a reason. He said, “Father, there are also Japanese pirates in Chu’s fief. In that case, I am I think the words of Uncle Sanhuang are reasonable."

King Wei glanced at the three princes, thinking that the three princes were really smart, and immediately changed his words to support him, which meant that King Chu was able to purchase artillery smoothly.

Xiao Ming watched from the sidelines, the more demand for this artillery, the more profit he made.

However, the Japanese pirate mentioned by Wang Wei made him frown.

This Japanese pirate naturally refers to a certain island country. In history, Japanese pirates harassed the coast often happened, and there seemed to be Japanese pirates here, but Xiao Ming didn't remember much of them in his memory.

"Well, let me think about it again." Xiao Wenxuan did not agree to Wang Wei the first time.

He was a little annoyed at this time. These Xiao Ming and Wei Wang were not fuel-efficient lamps, and the serious rewards were not for him.

Seemingly tired, Xiao Wenxuan said to Feng Deshui, and Feng Deshui immediately said: "If something happens, retreat if nothing happens."

In this early dynasty, Cui Haoma stumbled. Not only did he fail to use artillery skills, he was also scolded by Xiao Wenxuan. Anyone with a discerning eye could see Xiao Wenxuan's attitude towards barbarians.

It can be seen that the main battle group will become the highest voice group in the court in the future.

After the court was over, the ministers left one after another.

This time Xiao Ming got the result he wanted and was naturally complacent, but Wang Wei was a little worried, depressed, and exchanged greetings with Xiao Ming, saying that he would invite Xiao Ming to have a drink another day and hurried away.

Xiao Ming laughed secretly in his heart. The king of Wei asked for the artillery to defend against Japanese pirates, but it was true that he threatened King Chu and King Yan with this artillery.

After leaving the Chengqing Palace, Xiao Ming was about to leave the palace, when Feng Deshui suddenly walked over and said to Xiao Ming: "Your Highness, the Queen is waiting for you."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Ming followed Feng Deshui and circled to the back of Chengqing Hall, where Xiao Wenxuan stood in a pavilion.

"Father!" Xiao Ming bowed and said

Xiao Wenxuan turned around and watched Xiao Ming slowly and asked, "There are only you, father and son. Tell me the truth, how powerful is this artillery?"

"Father, my son dare not talk nonsense. This artillery evolved from a fire tube. It is dozens of times more powerful in terms of power and range. With the strong guns of the city, the soldiers will not retreat. It is generally no problem to defend the city. of."

Xiao Ming told the truth.

Nodded, Xiao Wenxuan said: "You must know the situation in this great Yu country now. The reason why I dare not send troops to help you is because I am afraid that Wang Zhao and others will take the opportunity to make trouble, not because I am ruthless. It’s not clear who gave him the idea."

"Emperor father had already seen it, and Erchen was worried that his father would really let him surrender this artillery technology." Xiao Ming said.

"If it were twenty years ago, the emperor father would definitely let you hand it over." Xiao Wenxuan suddenly sighed, "It's just that now that the emperor father is old, he should always consider the foundation of the Xiao family. This artillery is in your hands. I can rest assured. After all, you are a royal person."

After a pause, Xiao Wenxuan continued: "However, although I will not force you to hand over artillery technology this time, your first batch of artillery must be handed over to the Imperial Guard, understand?"

"Yes, Father Father." Xiao Ming said.

Xiao Wenxuan continued: "So when will the first batch of artillery arrive in Chang'an?" He was also very interested in the artillery.

"Half a year." Xiao Ming said.

"Half a year?" Xiao Wenxuan was very angry when he heard the words, "Why does it take so long?"

"Father, this artillery is very cumbersome to produce, and the children’s Cangzhou city artillery is not enough. You have to come to Cangzhou first. Besides, this artillery requires a lot of coal and iron~www.wuxiaspot.com~ It’s hard for a clever woman to cook without rice. "Xiao Ming complained bitterly.

For Xiao Ming, he just drew a pie for others to see. He agreed to sell the artillery, but he had the final say when it was offered.

"No, it's too slow. I will see the first batch of artillery in three months. You have no coal and iron. I can give it to you. Without silver, I can transfer it to you. The artillery must be equipped with the Forbidden Army as soon as possible and be equipped in the city of Chang'an Head." Xiao Wenxuan said severely.

Xiao Wenxuan's eagerness to ask for artillery seems to be a constant hatred for the last time the barbarians and kings of alien surnames were humiliated.

He said: "In this case, the son can only do his best, but for three months, the son can only provide twenty-four artillery pieces, and each cannon is 10,000 silver. I hope that the father can give the son the silver first... "

"Hmph, I know you will take the opportunity to ask for prices, eight thousand two, and you can make up for it yourself." Xiao Wenxuan said arrogantly.

Xiao Ming pretended to be embarrassed, "If this is the case, Erchen will suffer a little loss." He thought to himself that he would raise the price a little bit if he knew it.
