Chapter 339: Replacing soldiers with water, training outside the city
"I've seen it!"
"It's really hard to know that you have to go to the palace to do things on this hot day!"
“……”
All the way back to the palace, those attendants laughed when they saw him, and the sound of sycophants continued all the way.
Chen Zhongheng frowned slightly, but refused to respond.
As soon as he answers, someone will say his little words.
In this palace! It's a place full of traps.
went all the way in and saw Zhao Zhen.
"Official, Shen An's sister is grateful."
Reward the courtiers with things, or give rewards, and those who go should remember the looks and reactions of the courtiers, and then come back to tell them, so that the emperor knows what to expect.
But Guoguo is just a little girl, how can this be necessary.
Zhao Zhen asked, "What about Shen An?" ”
Chen Zhongheng said: "It was said that he went outside the city to practice the Bishan Army. ”
Zhao Zhen said with a smile: "There are only more than 100 people, it is rare for him to be interested." ”
More than 100 people are just a drop of water, which is not worth mentioning in the sea of Bianliang.
However, it is always good for a courtier to be serious.
Zhao Zhen said with some depression in his heart: "If the north is low, the Yellow River will always flow north and be diverted, and then the Liao people will directly rush over and kill them." Da Song is unstoppable, but what a problem! ”
The diversion of the Yellow River was suppressed, but the threat of the Liao people came.
"Official, please see ...... envoy of Liao"
There was an inner servant outside the door, and Chen Zhongheng turned around and shook his head.
Zhao Zhen was already covering his forehead in pain, how could he see the Liao envoy at this time?
……
“…… Array...... Walk! ”
More than 100 people lined up neatly, their faces were indifferent, and the footsteps gradually became heavy.
"Keep your legs straight."
"Hold on!"
The footsteps became more and more neat.
More than 100 people started on the straight road in the village, the number of people is not much, but the momentum is like a rainbow.
Zhe Kexing originally disagreed with this exercise, because he felt that whether he walked neatly or not was a chicken rib for the army.
The purpose of the existence of the military is to kill.
Kill the opponent, kill the enemy, and defend the country.
What are you doing walking?
But when this array gradually took shape, he couldn't help but be shocked: "Can you still walk out of such momentum?" ”
Shen An shook his head and said: "It's not good enough, you have to get out of the indomitable momentum, and you have to get out of the murderous aura." How can an army be done without murderous spirit? Tell Huang Chun that Lao Tzu wants to see the murderous aura! ”
Someone ran to inform Huang Chun, and Shen An said: "This is not just walking, the first is to temper an army with strict military discipline, which is essential." ”
"The second is cohesion, when you are in this group and walk out of the majestic array together, you will have a sense of belonging!"
A sense of belonging is the most needed thing in the army, supplemented by strict drills, that is, invincible division.
"Military discipline is strict, drills are strict, weapons are sharp, such an army, who in the world can be the enemy?"
Zhi Kexing nodded and said, "Brother Anbei, the array is so neat, do you want to use a spear in the future?" ”
In the army, only the spear formation needs to be kept in order.
"No matter what you use, there's always a good thing about it being neatly arranged."
Shen An refused to reveal the future direction, he was waiting for the opportunity.
Then he went to Izumokan.
As soon as you enter, it smells a little choking.
Although the coking coal seems to be smokeless, the faint smell is even more pungent.
'Dan furnace', no, it should be called a steel furnace now.
Several sturdy Taoist priests pushed and pulled the handle of the bellows together, and Shehui stood on the side, from time to time from the small opening to check the situation in the furnace.
This is the first furnace, Shehui was a little nervous, and when she saw Shen An coming, she said, "We have to wait." ”
"There's no hurry."
Shen An is really not in a hurry, it is too early to come up with good things, once he is in the world, all kinds of constraints will come one after another.
From ancient times to the present, what is the hardest?
It's hardest to do things!
It's best not to do things, you just need to be a person, and then you will be powerful, rich, and beautiful, and everything will not be lacking.
As soon as we do something, interests will be involved, and if there are interests, there will be disputes......
And then......
At the same time, you have to pacify, settle, and argue......
That's the price of doing things.
She came in with a smile on her face, but she looked a little reluctant.
"To be edicted...... People's hearts are a little unstable! ”
"Why?"
Shen An had already seen Tang Ren, but he still asked about the sacrifice first.
She said: "The people in the view are always worried about the future. ”
Shen An understood, so he said, "Gather them." ”
Now it's just a furnace, and most of the people in the Taoist temple are idlers.
Except for the official family, no one wants to support idlers, this is the consensus.
Out of instinct, those Taoists who have nothing to do are worried that they will be swept away in the future.
The Taoists gathered in the courtyard and looked at Shen An, the big boss, with apprehension in their hearts.
Shen An said: "I hope that in a few years, the official family can come here, so ...... Work with peace of mind! ”
That's all?
The Taoists had no bottom in their hearts, and someone asked: "Wait for the edict, we have nothing to do!" Will they be kicked out? ”
That's what worries them the most.
Shen An said with a smile: "Here is a certain thing, in the future Izumo Temple, only lazy people will be driven out." ”
After a moment of silence, someone asked, "Really?" ”
Shen An shook his head and said: "It's not bad for this money, so it's still the same sentence, do things with peace of mind." ”
He turned back to Shehui and said, "Except for a small amount of things that have been refined, all the things that have been refined will be handed over to the three divisions. ”
This is an explanation, and it is also a way to expand the scale of production.
The three divisions gave the iron ore and recycled the steel, and this is the business.
The next step is to ask for money from the third division.
You have to pay the processing fee!
Shen An was advancing step by step, not in a hurry or impatient.
When the Taoists heard this, they immediately smiled.
"Go fetch water!"
She Hui just commanded, and later the water tank was full, and the side was full of buckets.
That's positivity.
"Xiaguan has been in a bad mood recently, but after listening to the words of the edict, Xiaguan only felt that his spirit was lifted, and a surge of strength came up, a hundred times more energetic, a hundred times more spiritual!"
Tang Ren was still habitually sneering.
"What?"
Outside the Izumo view, Shen An asked a little flutteringly.
Tang Ren immediately said with a sad face: "To be edicted, the Liao envoy is aggressive, saying that he wants the Great Song Dynasty to destroy the Jingguan and stele in Fuzhou. ”
This incident is a sequelae of the diversion of the Yellow River.
The Great Song Dynasty believed that the Yellow River was a barrier, and the Liao people were also a little weak, fearing that they would suffer heavy losses on the Yellow River.
Now that the Great Song Dynasty has abandoned the project of diverting the Yellow River, the Liao people probably think that there is an opportunity for extortion.
"They offered to add coins, and if they refused, the iron cavalry would cross the Yellow River and go straight to Bianliang."
Tang Ren was a little worried, he felt that this was a dead end.
"You can't change the route, but what if the Liao people come?"
Tang Ren had a headache, "Waiting for the edict, the Liao people's request to see the official family was refused, and they have already spoken in the embassy, saying that they are going to go back." ”
"It's a bluff."
Shen An said disdainfully: "If you really want to attack, the Liao envoy should send someone back to report the news in private, instead of intimidating with great fanfare." ”
Tang Ren smiled bitterly: "But no one dares to say that the Liao people will not take the opportunity to go south." ”
The Liao people went south, this is the driving force that drove the Great Song Dynasty monarchs and ministers to divert the Yellow River, and it continued, if it wasn't for the death of the Northern Song Dynasty later, I am afraid that it would be the fourth time to die. It's just that it was not the Liao people who defended at that time, but the Jin people.
The two walked side by side, Shen An was pondering, and Tang Ren said in a low voice: "I heard that the official family is angry, and someone came up with an idea, saying that when the Liao people go south, they will directly break the embankment and release the water, and replace the soldiers with water, which will directly drown the Liao people." ”
"It's a lose-lose situation, and Da Song hurts more."
The so-called substitution of water for soldiers, that is, the release of water to flood the Liao army's southward army, but the people in this area will also suffer.
Shen An asked, "Can the official family agree?" ”
If Zhao Zhen agreed, he would either be frightened or black-hearted.
Tang Ren shook his head, "The official family reprimanded that person, and the Zai Fu also impeached him one after another...... The man is said to have invited himself to Xiazhou County. ”
He didn't say who it was, and Shen An wasn't interested in asking.
"It's not out of the ......"
"Wait for the edict to save me!"
Tang Ren grasped this sentence like a life-saving straw, and he hated to make a promise.
Shen An went to the palace, and he didn't know what he said to Zhao Zhen, and then the royal driver went outside the city.
The next day, in the Privy Council, the chief of the three yas was there, Song Zhen was also there, and Shen An was sitting on the side.
Song Zhen held the teacup and said slowly: "The official family just ordered that 10,000 people be selected to practice, all of them must be tall and strong, and you can choose them carefully." ”
The three chiefs all nodded in response, and Li Zhang asked, "But won't you come back if you draw it out?" ”
This is an inquiry about whether a new army will be formed, and if so, then it is time to re-recruit to fill the vacancies that have been redeployed.
Song Zhen shook his head and said, "Half a month is enough, and I will go back later." ”
Half a month!
Li Zhang smiled: "It's better this way, and the army also saves them from chewing." ”
The three chiefs all laughed.
Then the laughter dissipated in Song Zhen's indifference.
"The expenses of 10,000 people in half a month are not small, and the official family can bear it, so you must be cautious, don't cheat, otherwise the military law will be ruthless!"
Song Zhen got up and said, "That's it." When you get back, you can get started. ”
Li Zhang asked, "Who will you give it to after you pick it out?" ”
"Shen An."
Song Zhen went out, and Shen Ancai, who had been silent, said: "These people should be gathered as soon as possible and then sent outside the city." ”
Is this a big deal?
Li Zhang remembered the Liao people jumping off the beam, so he asked, "But you have to deal with the Liao people?" ”
Shen An smiled and said, "Don't say." ”
……
In the embassy at this moment, the Liao envoy was roaring.
“…… Jingguan and the stele are a provocation to Da Liao, if they are not removed, millions of iron horses will break through Bianliang! ”
Tang Ren said indifferently: "Okay, step through." ”
"The Western Xia people are going crazy, if Da Liao joins forces with them, they can turn you into meat puree in an instant!"
"Okay, Meat Puree!"
Tang Ren got the latest instructions, that is, flickering.
As long as you can fool the Liao envoy, turning back will be a great achievement.
And outside the city, in a large Zhuangzi.
"Array!"
"Hold on! Steady! ”
"Kick it up!"
"Start...... Walk! ”
The footsteps scattered, then gradually became neat.
……
At the beginning of the month, continue to ask for a monthly pass. A small bowl of gruel for breakfast......
