Gao Huaiyuan understood the meaning of Zhen Dexiu as soon as he heard it, he originally thought that this was a trivial matter, but it involved the system of the imperial court, and it seemed that it was not easy to explain this matter in Zhen Dexiu today. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The reason why he wants to put the Imperial Shrine under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of War is actually to make the production of weapons fall under the jurisdiction of the military, so that the quality of weapons can be controlled, and the second is that the craftsmen can provide suitable weapons to the army in a timely manner, and this matter does not seem to be big, but the involvement is indeed not small, he is not without a little mental preparation, so he first discussed this matter with Zhen Dexiu.

But now it seems that Zhen Dexiu will not easily agree to the transfer of the military weapons supervisor to the Ministry of War.

Gao Huaiyuan sighed slightly in his heart, under the current system, even a famous minister like Zhen Dexiu is so pedantic, only thinking about how to control the rights of military generals, but not thinking about the deep-seated problem of strengthening the army, and at this point, he has nothing to say.

So he had to bow down and salute Zhen Dexiu and said: Then everything is bothered by Lord Lao Zhen, Gao mentioned this matter, but also wanted to make my army strong as soon as possible, and there is no other plan, and I hope that Lord Zhen is not strange!

Zhen Dexiu smiled: How can the old man not know what Lord Gao thinks, but it is really difficult for the official to make decisions on this matter, and Lord Gao proposes that the official is difficult to decide, so I hope that Lord Gao is not strange!

Gao Huaiyuan walked out of Zhen Dexiu's mansion depressedly, shook his head and said in his heart Since this is the case, then I will find another way.

For the production of weapons in the Southern Song Dynasty, Gao Huaiyuan is still more familiar, this road is not passable, not necessarily all roads can not be taken, and the production of weapons is not only the monopoly of the Beijing Division's ordnance supervisor, in order to supply the garrisons of the state roads, in fact, each state road has a corresponding capital institute, specializing in the production of weapons for the use of local garrisons, but due to the lack of supervision of the imperial court, so that in the production of weapons in various places, from the beginning of the purchase of materials, there are big problems, when producing weapons, in order to reduce expenditures, it is to cut corners, So much so that after the production of many weapons, there are serious problems with the quality.

In addition, the huge amount of weapons produced in the Song Dynasty made it impossible to inspect them one by one, and only supervised them by means of random inspections.

In addition to the old system of the Northern Song Dynasty, Lin'an still placed the East Workshop and the Wanquan Workshop, as well as the Armor Institute, the Imperial Front Ordnance Institute, the Manufacturing Ordnance Institute and the Capital Workshop, etc., and the Xiu Nei Division also undertook some of the weapons. In addition, during the reign of Gaozong Shaoxing, the Imperial Ordnance Bureau was built in Jiankang Mansion, but the armor institute and the Southern Song Dynasty that manufactured the Imperial Ordnance Bureau only existed for a short time and were abolished. According to the object and affiliation of the Jingshi Weapons Workshop, it can be divided into two systems: the inner court (or the imperial court) and the outer court (or the imperial court). The inner court system workshop was not visited by the outer court, and the weapons made were mainly used by the inner court or used to reward the courtiers. In the Northern Song Dynasty, the Horse Chopping Bureau, the Saddle Office, the Imperial Front Living Office and the Southern Song Dynasty Subordinate to the Imperial Front Ying Feng Institute made weapons were all Inner Court weapons workshops. Due to the particularity of the service objects of the inner court workshop, it is determined that the craftsmen in the workshop must be skilled masters, and these master craftsmen are mainly drawn from the workshops of the outer court system. However, a large number of master craftsmen were transferred to the inner court workshop, which had a very adverse impact on the weapon manufacturing of the outer court workshop.

The ordnance supervisor complained that he waited for a craftsman in Beijing and sent him to the living place in front of the palace, so it would be harmful to make it. Because of this, the weapons made by the inner court workshops are generally better than those of the outer court workshops, and they are often used as legal weapons to be handed down to the workshops. The Outer Court Workshop is mainly responsible for the manufacturing of a considerable part of the weapons of the garrison in Beijing and Zhulu, including the East and West Workshop, the East and West Guangbei, the Wanquan Workshop, the Bow and Crossbow Courtyard and the Bow and Crossbow Arrow Yard. The East and West workshops were in charge of making weapons, military tools, flags, oil clothes, rattan lacquer, and other utensils for the use of the state. The Bow and Crossbow Courtyard is in charge of making bows, crossbows, armor, instruments, flags, swords, and stirrups, while the Bow and Crossbow Courtyard is in charge of making long arrows and crossbow arrows. Wanquan Workshop was incorporated in the Southern Song Dynasty? Fabrication? In the Imperial Armory, it became one of the workshops under the jurisdiction of the Armory. The scale of weapons workshops in Beijing, especially those in the outer courts, is generally larger.

Fortunately, now only the Imperial Shrine is under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Industry, and the affiliation of the rest of the weapons workshops is not clear, after Gao Huaiyuan returned to the house, he pondered carefully for a while, so he changed his mind.

Since Zhen Dexiu did not agree to change the Imperial Shrine to the Ministry of War, then he simply bypassed the Ministry of Industry and let the Ministry of War directly seize the Wanquan Workshop, as long as he grabbed these two pieces, then the result would be the same, the military was equivalent to controlling his own lifeline, and simply threw the Ministry of Industry aside.

After making up his mind, Gao Huaiyuan immediately wrote a chapter, urging the quality of the armor in the Northern Expedition to strengthen the supervision and control of the production of the armor, and directly asked Zhao Yun to hand over the matter to the Ministry of War.

After the chapter was submitted, Zhao Yun didn't pay too much attention to it, thinking that weapons were a major matter of the army, and with a wave of the pen, he wrote a quasi-word, and the matter was approved and directly handed over to the Ministry of War.

During the two Song Dynasty, although the military department was not abolished, in fact, the military department had no real power, and the Song Dynasty military department was only in charge of the emperor's honor guard. Halogen. Wu Ju. Militiaman. Box soldiers. Fan soldiers, etc., also take care of logistics, and base idle officials. The Privy Council is the supreme body of general affairs.

Now Gao Huaiyuan proposed to let the military department take care of the quality of the armor, which is not too much, so Zhao Yun didn't pay too much attention to it, so Gao Huaiyuan took advantage of the loophole.

But Zhen Dexiu immediately understood Gao Huaiyuan's thoughts, and wanted to remind Zhao Yun, but he didn't come forward to stop him because of his relationship with Wei Liaoweng and the face that Gao Huaiyuan had helped him.

In this way, Gao Huaiyuan actually let the military control the production of weapons, and the military department does not look at many people, although the military department is also a civilian official, but he is not in power, it is an idle errand, and now it is Liu Dayong who is really in power in the military department, this guy is now in addition to the position of deputy commander of the front division of the palace, but also because of the meritorious service of the Northern Expedition, he was promoted to the military department, originally gave him a military department waiter is only a nominal reward, it is an idle errand, but with the support of Gao Huaiyuan, Now there is something real to do.

As soon as the holy decree was issued from the palace, Gao Huaiyuan directly summoned Liu Dayong to the Privy Council and handed over the holy decree to Liu Dayong.

Dayong, I called you here today because I have something for you to do, you can put aside the affairs of the front division of the palace for the time being, as for the matter of replenishing the soldiers and training the recruits, leave it to Jiang Hai's group of boys to do, and now do your best to do this well! Gao Huaiyuan sat behind the big case, and as soon as he saw Liu Dayong, he beckoned him over and instructed him.

Liu Dayong is Gao Huaiyuan's intimate confidant, he was just a small officer a few years ago, since following Gao Huaiyuan, it can be said that he is on the rise, and now he is sitting in the position of deputy commander of the front of the palace, how can he not listen to Gao Huaiyuan, so he nodded immediately without saying a word: Although the lord has ordered, the last general will definitely do his best to do things well! It's just that I don't know what, so that the last general should even let go of the training of new soldiers?

Gao Huaiyuan threw the emperor's reply to Liu Dayong and said: Look at this, we sent troops to the Northern Expedition this time, but because of the quality of the armor, we have suffered a lot of losses, this kind of thing can not happen again in the future, now I have asked the emperor, for the weapons made by the institutes, the quality of the Ministry of War will be supervised, and all weapons found to be inferior and good will be severely punished!

After Liu Dayong watched it briefly, he immediately became happy: Okay! Thank you for your compassion for the officers and soldiers of the army, because this incident really made the soldiers feel like they were in a bag, and the Duzuoyuan and the Sanya either colluded or didn't ask, so that the brothers suffered a lot because of this! Now that your Excellency has invited this holy decree, I don't think those people who are in the courtyard will dare to fool us in the future! Damn, let me catch them shoddy again, and see if I don't screw their heads!

Gao Huaiyuan shook his head with a smile and said: I asked you to do this, not just to let you take care of them and make some good weapons!

Liu Dayong was stunned for a moment and hurriedly asked: My lord made it clear, in addition to these, what else did you want the last general to do?

Gao Huaiyuan stood up and paced to Liu Dayong's side, patted him on the shoulder, and said with a smile: You guy is indeed a straight brain compared to Hua Yue! Don't you think for yourself?

Liu Dayong couldn't help but be a little confused, and asked in a daze: What the adults said is that I am indeed a little bit brainless! Your Excellency, let's just make it clear!

Gao Huaiyuan smiled and said to him: Okay! Then I'll tell you! With this holy decree, it will be much more convenient for us, and the courts in various places are not under the jurisdiction of the state capitals? Because of this, the soldiers have suffered a lot of losses! We use what they make, and it's not our turn to speak.

Now, with this will of the Holy Lord, the Ministry of War will at least have something to do in the future, I want you to gradually bring all the local institutes under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of War from now on, and then allocate funds to the Ministry of Household Affairs, directly enter the Ministry of War, and then allocate them to the Metropolitan Hospitals, but this money can't be given to them too refreshingly, you can ask for money, first take out qualified weapons to exchange! If they can't get a qualified armor, then they will have to figure out how to pay for it themselves! This money has to be spent on the blade, and it can't be cheapened by those guys who are full of money!

You will find a way for me in the future, keep an eye on the money, if you let me know that the money still can't be exchanged for a good guy, I only ask!
