Daming Junior Scholar

Just when Zhengde was about to agree, He Jiaan suddenly saluted again, and said softly: "Your Majesty, there is something about the grassroots that I don't know whether to say or not."

"Let's talk." Zhengde nodded.

"Although this is a major military matter, the grassroots should not participate, but the matter is of great importance, and some things should be clarified by the grassroots."

Hearing He Jiaan's serious tone, even Yang Tinghe became serious. The key point is that among the people in the room, only He Jiaan himself knew this Frangji man. "There is a saying in Zuo Zhuan: People who are not of our race must have a different heart. This sentence is not only applicable to Japanese people, but the ambitions of these Frangji people are even stronger. The lease of Macau is just an excuse for them. Maybe after this success, the next

The first step is to lease Fujian and Guangdong. "

"How is this possible?" Yang Tinghe shook his head and said, "Fujian and Guangdong are two of the two capitals and thirteen provinces of the Ming Dynasty. They have a vast territory and a strong army. How can they occupy them with their Frangji? Mr. He's words are a bit exaggerated." .”

Looking at Yang Tinghe who was shaking his head, He Jia'an's heart suddenly felt sad. Even the chief minister of Daming didn't take it seriously, let alone other people, and Macao gradually became a colony of Francine people.

He Jiaan didn't know where the courage came from, so he retorted in the imperial study: "Master Yang, do you know that Franji has three powerful weapons?"

"This... I don't know."

"First, the strong ship."

After a pause, He Jiaan continued: "Franji's fast boats all sailed from far away places, and they have experienced countless strong winds and waves at sea. The hull is so strong that even Daming's artillery can't beat them have to wear it."

"Hehe, ridiculous." Yang Tinghe had seen the artillery used by Daming Shenji Battalion, let alone a boat, even a stone could be blown away.He Jia'an ignored Yang Tinghe's sarcasm, and continued: "The second one is the artillery of the Frang Robot. I am afraid that Mr. Yang has only seen the artillery of the Ming Dynasty, but he has not seen the artillery of the Frang Robot. more powerful

, but the shortcomings are also obvious..."

In front of so many people, He Jia'an continued to talk with confidence, "First, the gun body is too heavy to move, so it can only be fixed at one angle."

"Secondly, it's difficult to clear the chamber. After firing one shot, you have to wait for a while before you can fire the second shot. How can you defeat the enemy with such inefficiency?" Hitting the face of Daming Shenji Ying, Yang Tinghe's face suddenly became very ugly, hesitated for a moment, and said unwillingly: "Since Mr. He said that our Daming's artillery is so-and-so, is it true that Frangji's cannon

Don't have these weaknesses? "

"Of course, the Fran robot's cannon is not without its shortcomings, but it is much stronger than Daming's cannon. The rate of fire alone is several times faster than Daming's cannon. If it really hits...hehe." Although He Jiaan didn't say the result, but everyone here is not stupid, and no one can't hear He Jiaan's latent words. There is a dead silence in the air, and everyone is silently thinking. big

Could the Ming Dynasty really not be able to defeat Franji?

After a while, Zhengde said slowly again: "Just now He Qing only talked about the two powerful weapons of Frangji, what is the other one?" "The third is Frangji's musket." He Jiaan I had one myself, but I didn’t bring it with me in the inn, so I could only compete with Zhengde on how powerful the musket was.

There is also, no matter what the big deal. "

He Jiaan really wanted to say that this musket is different from muskets, but seeing the expression on Zhengde's face, he swallowed his words. He has already made enough limelight today, so it's better to bear with it.

After listening to He Jiaan's words, Zhengde also felt that there seemed to be some truth, and after thinking for a while, he asked: "Then according to He Qing, do you agree to lease Macau to Franji?"

"It's not so absolute. If the Frangji people are going to exchange things, it's not a bad thing to lease out Macau." Everything has advantages and disadvantages, and the Franji people rely on their strong ship Cannon, as long as you bring these things yourself, relying on the wisdom of Daming craftsmen, there will definitely be rapid development in these two aspects, and by then Daming will be powerful

Now, as long as the fleet sails to the waters off Macau, it will be impossible for Franz to return it.

"Disagree for a while, and agree for a while, Mr. He, which side are you standing on?" For some reason, Yang Tinghe always looked at He Jiaan with dislike, and couldn't help it when he heard his words change. Live and push through.

"My lord, calm down a little, and listen to me first." He Jiaan glanced at Yang Tinghe, and then said: "If the Francobots are willing to exchange their gunboats and muskets for technology, I think we can still agree." Yes." After a long time, He Jia'an came up with such an idea, this time without waiting for Yang Tinghe's objection, Duan Siqun, who had been silent all this time, suddenly jumped out, shook his head and said: "Your Majesty, I object."

Chapter 710

In the imperial study room, there is the emperor Zhengde, Yang Tinghe, the head of the cabinet, He Jiaan and Su Yunya, but Duan Siqun in the middle is the most inconspicuous one. local government office, I'm afraid he

Also not qualified to stand here.But when everyone didn't speak, he jumped out alone, shook his head resolutely and said: "My Ming Dynasty is a kingdom of heaven, with a vast territory and rich products. strong boat

It's just a supernatural skill, it's not worth paying such a price. My minister recommends one person, who will surely be able to build a strong ship and gun that is more powerful than the Frangji. "

It doesn't matter if you belittle me, but to say that Frangji is worthless, this cowhide seems to be a bit exaggerated, He Jiaan glanced at the Honglu Temple minister, and said softly: "Is this Mr. Duan?"

Duan Siqun nodded, although He Jiaan is just a commoner now, but these people standing behind him are not something he can offend, so naturally he has to give him a little face.

"What advice does Mr. He have?"

"I don't dare to advise, He just wants to ask, has Mr. Duan ever seen the artillery of the Frang machine with his own eyes?"

"This..." An embarrassing look appeared on Duan Siqun's face, he hesitated and shook his head: "Not at all." "Where did Mr. Duan get the confidence that my strong ship and artillery from the Celestial Dynasty will be able to defeat the opponent? You know Well, since the time of Chengzu, Ming Dynasty has rarely built large ships. You can actually recommend a shipbuilder. I just want to ask, who is this person?

Have you ever built a ship or have you never built a ship? "Although He Jia'an didn't say much, it shocked Duan Siqun a lot. You must know that the sea was banned for a long time in Ming Dynasty. ,

If Long Live Lord gets angry, wouldn't he lose his black hat?

"This..." Duan Siqun was stunned for a moment, and then hastily explained: "Your Majesty has clearly checked that this person recommended by me was born as a craftsman, and he has not secretly built any ships these years."

As a bystander, Zhengde saw clearly, seeing Duan Siqun's tense face, but he suddenly echoed He Jiaan's words: "Master Duan should explain clearly, what is going on. "

In Duan Siqun's heart, this was a grievance, and so was he. Who would he recommend if he had nothing to do? How nice it would be to be his own vase honestly. Now that He Jia'an caught him, he really panicked.

Just when Duan Siqun didn't know where to start to explain, He Jiaan said again: "Master Duan must not want a generation of great masters to be dusted from now on, but there is one sentence that I have to make clear to you." He Jiaan was actually explaining for himself , Duan Siqun’s heart was indescribably complicated, but he could only nod his head and agree: “Mr.

The law works for the country, Mr. He, please speak up if you have something to say. "It's really a pity for Master Mengchen. You must know that when the Sanbao eunuch went to the West, he led the largest fleet in the world. After so many years, the Daming Navy has not expanded, but has shrunk a lot. The current Navy At once

Even the Japanese pirates who abused the coast can't do anything, let alone defeat the Fran robot with advanced artillery.

It's just that Daming at this time is still immersed in the dream of a heavenly kingdom, completely ignoring the rising Europe. After a few hundred years, I'm afraid that sad and indignant scene will be staged again.

He Jiaan didn't think he was a savior, but he didn't want to see the sad scene back then. As for how much he could help, he didn't dare to say, he could only say that he did his best.These sentences are not only for Duan Siqun, but more for Zhengde. He Jiaan said seriously: "Master Duan looks down on Frangji now, not because you have seen their strong ships and guns, but because you have been treat yourself as heaven

People from Shangguo, that's why they disdain the technology of Franc Robot, but if I say that if the war really starts now, the Daming Marine Division may not be the opponent of Franc Robot, can you believe this? "As soon as He Jiaan's words fell, there was a deathly silence in the imperial study room. Even Yang Tinghe was stunned, looking at He Jiaan as if he was looking at a fool. I'm afraid even he didn't dare to say such a sensitive topic. Where is He Jiaan from?

How dare he dare to say such words in front of the emperor, he, isn't he afraid that the emperor will anger him?Yang Tinghe didn't dare to answer this sentence, and Duan Siqun even didn't dare to answer that sentence. He even lowered his head now, and he didn't dare to look at He Jiaan at all. so worthless,

I don't know how the emperor will blame him.After another long while, Zhengde, who was in deep thought, finally came back to his senses, looked at He Jiaan with a complicated expression, and then said slowly: "Since He Qing mentioned that the Daming Navy is not the opponent of Franji, then I would rather I want to ask you, our Daming should

How can we defeat the opponent? "He Jiaan was not sure what Zhengde meant, so he paused for a moment, and continued to speak boldly: "Actually, this matter is easy to say, just now Master Duan said that our Ming Dynasty is a kingdom of heaven, and there are countless capable people. It's just because of some reasons that they failed to bring out their ingenuity. I think it's better that this is the case. Your Majesty might as well issue an edict to call all capable craftsmen from all over the world here, and then learn from the idea of ​​Francine to go to Research more powerful warships,

Guns, cannons, I believe it won't be long before our Daming sailors will no longer be afraid of Francobots. "This idea is bold, especially when it clearly points out the weakness and incompetence of the Daming Navy. Yang Tinghe and others dare not take a breath now. he is now

What are you thinking about.After a long time, Zhengde finally moved his body, nodded slowly and said: "He Qing's method is really good. Since He Qing came up with this idea, it's better for He Qing to implement this plan. As for Francois

If you ask us, you can also agree with him first, and then take Macau back after we have more powerful warships and artillery. If the Franji people dare not agree, we will beat him to death. "He Jia'an didn't expect that, just after saying something well-known to future generations, he got an official position. Although there is no certainty about the rank of this official, but compared to his husband, he is indeed an official. lucky a lot

, This also shows from the side that to make friends, you must look for the right people.

It's just that He Jia'an is not ready to be an official now. On the one hand, he wants to go back to take the imperial examination, and on the other hand, it may be Zhengde's whim.

I don't want to give up on either of these two aspects, but now it's hard for He Jiaan, I have to choose one of these two aspects.Just when He Jiaan was hesitating, Su Yunya beside her was a little anxious for him. Seeing that he had not agreed to Zhengde's words, she knew that He Jiaan must have committed something stupid again, so she suddenly stabbed He Jiaan, He whispered, "Hurry up and thank you."

Chapter 711

He Jiaan's head was still dizzy until he left the imperial study room. Although the soon-to-be-established Yamen has not yet been named, one thing is certain is that He Jiaan has become Zhengde's eyes with his words.

The big hits.When we got outside, even Yang Tinghe, who didn't deal with him very much just now, exchanged pleasantries with him, and then left alone. Looking at Yang Tinghe's leaving back, He Jia'an still felt a little dreamy at this moment. Could it be that he was so easy

Become an official?This kind of feeling still makes me a little unreal. Thinking about the road that others have walked step by step through the imperial examination, but I almost became an official in a one-step way. What exactly is

Good or bad.
