The strongest Marquis in history

Grenades, mines and artillery, that's all classified.

For the time being, it has not been announced to the public.

Only a few know.

Xiao Qingzhi didn't know about the development of the new weapon for the time being, that's why he said that.

Wang Qi smiled and said: "A master at the master level is powerful. Once hit by a new weapon, there will be no bones left. Or, he will be killed directly. So, you can imagine how powerful the new weapon is."

hiss! !

Xiao Qingzhi took a breath.

No bones left?

Or, be killed directly, what a powerful weapon.

Xiao Qingzhi said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty, what kind of weapon is this?"

Wang Qi said: "For the time being, there are three kinds of weapons this time, grenades, landmines and mortars, all of which are made of gunpowder. What we need to train now is the use of these three weapons. Mainly mortars."

After a pause, Wang Qi ordered: "You select 3000 elites from your army to train. After the [-] people have successfully trained, the next step is to send them to other military regions in batches. Because of this kind of weapon training, they will It's the backbone."

"The minister obeys the order!"

Xiao Qingzhi responded immediately.

Xiao Qingzhi was actually a little curious in his heart, he asked: "Your Majesty, when will I be able to see this weapon?"

Wang Qi said: "You first complete the selection of soldiers, you must choose the most elite soldiers. Then, you personally take the soldiers to Zhongnan Mountain, and contact Mo Liu of the Weapons Research Institute. He will provide weapons drills. Then, you will be temporarily in Build a barracks over there for drills. Remember, it must be kept secret, and no one is allowed near the barracks."

"I understand!"

Xiao Qingzhi nodded solemnly.

In his heart, he was even more curious about what kind of weapon it was.

After Xiao Qingzhi finished talking with Wang Qi, he left in a hurry and went directly back to the barracks to dispatch 3000 soldiers, all of whom were the most elite soldiers.

Even among them, there are many first-class masters.

The master level has not participated in it. After all, the strength of the master is not ordinary, so there is no need to participate in such training.

Xiao Qingzhi led the people and went straight to Zhongnan Mountain.As soon as he arrived at Zhongnan Mountain, he came to the area where the Shanxia Research Institute was located, and the army was stationed to rest. Xiao Qingzhi went directly to Mo Liu and explained why he came.

In today's camp, there are plenty of grenades and gunpowder. These are manufactured continuously, but what is lacking at the moment is the mortar, which is relatively complicated to manufacture.

Mo Liu personally called the craftsmen to show Xiao Qingzhi the grenades, landmines, and the gunpowder they made.

Originally, Xiao Qingzhi didn't have much hope.It's just that when the grenade exploded after being thrown, Xiao Qingzhi was shocked, because the grenade is an extremely simple weapon, but its power is quite powerful.

Even though Xiao Qingzhi is a master at the master level, if he is not prepared, he will either die or be seriously injured.

When Xiao Qingzhi noticed the power of the explosives, he knew that Qi's army was different in the siege, because the weapons had changed.

Originally, Xiao Qingzhi thought he was surprised enough, but when he actually saw the range and explosive power of the cannon, Xiao Qingzhi was completely shocked. He only felt that decades of concepts were completely overturned.

Everything is different.

What happened before his eyes made Xiao Qingzhi's heart tremble.When there are no weapons such as grenades and cannons, the master is a master, and the great master is even more rampant in the world.

Up to now, with the appearance of gunpowder, let alone a grand master, even a grand master, under such a weapon, would have to drink his hatred on the spot, absolutely unstoppable.

No one is not afraid of such a weapon.

Of course, with these weapons, it will be able to truly contend against Cao Xuan and even the Hercynian Empire.

After Xiao Qingzhi understood it, he carefully learned about gunpowder, grenades and other weapons.He had to learn it by himself first, and thoroughly understand it before he could pass it on to the soldiers in the army.

Three thousand soldiers are not here to play.

It is for real practice.

After Xiao Qingzhi became familiar with it, he began to conduct drills to further enhance the combat effectiveness of the army.

Chapter 800 Cao Xuan's plan

Time flies, and it's October in a blink of an eye.

After a year of development, Qi's national strength has been further consolidated. In addition, this year's imperial examination has been completely completed in August.And this year's imperial examination was even more successful.

The initial selection was not in Chang'an, but based on the state.In June, state-level assessments are conducted.Then, according to the talents selected at the state level, they will be arranged to go to Chang'an for the palace examination in August.

The selection of talents at the state level is an official sent by the Ministry of Rites, which is independent of the state capital and is not restricted by the state capital.In addition, when it comes to the assessment of each state, the selection of talents is also included in the indicators, so the state pastors in each state hope that more talents will emerge, so they all give strong support, so that more talents can participate in the scientific examination.

After all the scholars took the palace examination, they were arranged to go to the localities again, and each governed the administrative area.

The imperial examination was successful, and this year was a bumper harvest.

A large number of people harvest food, especially the promotion of sweet potatoes, so that there is more food in the world, and the people have arable land, which at least ensures that the people at least eat without worry.

In addition, the Ministry of Military Defense and the Ministry of Military Security have also been adjusted, and the army has been completely structured.

The Zongmen Administration Bureau also started to operate under Qi Changsheng's arrangement.

The government of Qi State has been stabilized.

The people of the world, all return to their hearts.

The so-called returning to the heart is actually simple, it is to let the people eat and drink enough, so that the people will not be hungry.Under this premise, the people naturally turn to the imperial court.

In Qi State in October, there is an atmosphere of harvest everywhere.In October, under the governance of Cao Xuan, the Wei State of Xiliang had all surrendered to the country, and Cao Xuan's territory had been expanded, taking Gaochang, Loulan and other countries in the Western Regions.

Cao Xuan's strength has also been greatly enhanced.

But the Western Regions are bitterly cold.

Especially after entering October, although it hasn't snowed yet, the weather is getting colder, especially the temperature difference between day and night is getting bigger.

Weiwu County, inside the imperial city.

This is the area where Cao Xuan is now.

Cao Xuan is quite smug now.Because until now, he has the strength to fight Wang Qi again.He has completely united several small countries adjacent to the Western Regions and Liangzhou.

On the whole, even if Cao Xuan's territory is not as vast as Qi, at least he is not afraid of Qi for the time being.

Because Cao Xuan's army has full combat effectiveness.

Palace Hall.

Cao Xuan was flipping through the documents of Qi State.

This is the news sent by the Qi State. It is almost all the news that the Qi State is constantly reforming, constantly stabilizing the place, and constantly allowing the people to live a better life.After Cao Xuan finished reading it, he also admired Wang Qi in his heart, because Wang Qi is indeed the master of Xionglue.

In the original Great Zhou Dynasty, the place was in turmoil, and the common people were in dire straits.Because of Wang Qi's governance, in a short period of time, the entire domestic war was sorted out, making the entire country stable.

After Cao Xuan read the materials, he arranged for someone to notify Jia Yulai.

After Jia Yu stood still, he bowed and saluted.

Cao Xuan waved his hand and said, "Jia Qing, you don't need to be polite, just sit down and talk. I'm a little curious about Wang Qi's domestic reforms. So I'm going to talk to you about this matter."

Jia Yu said: "What Your Majesty wants to talk about is Wang Qi's adjustments to the martial arts, the adjustments to the army, or the adjustments to the imperial examinations?"

News from the Qi State came in a steady stream.

Jia Yu also knew about it.

He also admires Wang Qi very much in his heart, because Wang Qi's reforms can be said to be extremely powerful and powerful.

At least, none of the monarchs of all dynasties has been able to do this.

Cao Xuan said in a deep voice: "I have carefully studied Wang Qi's strategies, and these governance strategies are of a very high standard. Let's analyze them one by one, and we will say that the imperial examination is the first of its kind, enabling countless scholars to step up Enter the officialdom."

"Even with this method, the aristocratic family can no longer monopolize the place. Countless talented and humble scholars have the opportunity to stand out. Even the depressed family members can also have a chance."

"All the talents in the world are under Wang Qi's command."

"It's a picture of the moment."

Cao Xuan said in a deep voice: "Jia Qing, you said that our Wei State also implements this strategy and carries out the reform of the imperial examination?"

Jia Yu said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, if the State of Wei wants to implement the imperial examination, it is naturally possible. However, there are still a group of people in the court who come from aristocratic families. They may resist and most likely oppose it."

Cao Xuandao: "There is no resistance to the promotion of imperial examinations. But this is a long-term strategy, especially in our country of Wei, which lives in Xiliang, and naturally has fewer talents. That is, before that, we annexed the power of the little emperor Zhao Gan before we can win After Xiliang, we will send talents to sit in the town. Therefore, it is imperative for us to set up the imperial examination, and we must advance it. I plan to implement the imperial examination."

Jia Yu nodded and said: "Your Majesty has decided, and I support it. After all, the selection of the imperial examination has considerable benefits. The promotion of the imperial examination will help the Wei State."

A smile spread on Cao Xuan's face.

With Jia Yu's support, Cao Xuan felt at ease, thinking that things were safer.

Cao Xuan continued: "Then what about the reform of the army?"

Jia Yu hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, it is impossible to blindly follow Wang Qi's strategy. Regarding the military reform, Wang Qi has the Ministry of Military Security and the Ministry of Military Defense because of the vast territory of Qi State and the fact that he wants to restrain civil servants."

"But we don't need it for the time being here in Wei State. After all, the territory is not so vast. Furthermore, the establishment of the Ministry of Military Security and the Ministry of Military Defense is actually very complicated."

"Wang Qi's intention minister has also studied it, and generally understands it. In fact, the separation of military and government makes it impossible for local officials to mobilize the army. What can be mobilized is the Wu'an Department. After all, the Wu'an Department is too small."

Jia Yu said, "Your Majesty, if we learn from Wang Qi in terms of military system, we may learn from Handan."

After Cao Xuan heard it, he said solemnly: "Jia Qing, in the long run, this is also a good choice. Because if we really want to stop the local government from being too big, make the local government ignore the army, and make the army directly belong to the imperial court, the world will be better. for stability."

"Of course, in any dynasty, it is inevitable that the emperor will become unconscious. But as long as the army is not chaotic, everything will be stable and there will be a chance to set things right."

"After all, the military is still constrained by the civil service system."

Cao Xuan said: "So I also have some ideas in my heart, and I want to implement reforms."

Jia Yu stroked the beard under his chin, thought for a while, and said, "Your Majesty is wise, in the long run, Wang Qi's plan is naturally not bad. The problem is that the current state of Wei cannot withstand too much trouble."

"Today's Wei State is mainly focused on expansion and attacking Wang Qi. This is the main thing of Wei State at the moment. Why is Wang Qi able to make drastic reforms, whether it is the army, or the imperial examination, or martial arts management? It is because Qi has already unified the world, and the whole world is in Wang Qi's hands, so he can reform."

"Even if there is some turmoil, Jia Yu can calm down the situation immediately. However, Wei State can't do it. We now have new weapons, but compared with Qi State, our background is much, much worse."

"Chen, it is not recommended to toss."

Jia Yu said: "If we want to promote reform, we can postpone it a little bit. If this situation is copied, the final result will only lead to local turmoil and even problems in the army."

After Cao Xuan listened, he also thought carefully.

Cao Xuan sighed, and continued: "In terms of martial arts strength, are we going to follow this strategy? Xu Futu's strength is strong enough to suppress the entire Liangzhou and even the martial arts forces in the Western Regions."

Jia Yu smiled and said, "In this matter, Xu Futu is used to coerce all over the place, and at the same time, he is coerced by interests, intimidating and luring. This is the right way, let everyone work for us. Of course, this matter is actually not so difficult."

Cao Xuandao: "Okay, we will start the imperial examination and gather all the martial arts forces. We will try to let more great masters be born in the territory of Wei State. Although the great masters are now unable to stop the shooting of rifles. The problem is, It is naturally the best to have a great master."

Jia Yu said: "Your Majesty is wise!"

Cao Xuan said in a deep voice: "We have been unable to counterattack for a long time. In fact, it is because of the lack of weapons. Now that we have taken down the countries in the Western Regions, we have also obtained a batch of weapons."

"Such a batch of weapons, without manufactured equipment, is still insufficient. Only if they can be manufactured on a large scale, can we really start a war with Qi. In fact, judging from the current situation, what is lacking is not rifles. weapons, and many rifles."

"It's the bullets that really can't withstand consumption, which cannot be supplied in large quantities."

Cao Xuan said: "A rifle can be used for a long time. When the bullet is consumed, it will be gone."

Jia Yu said sternly: "Your Majesty is right, now we can only wait for Aiweier. Speaking of which, Aiweier has been away for such a long time, and he hasn't come here yet, it's been almost a year."

Cao Xuandao: "I look forward to him coming sooner, because we are lacking in this right now."

Jia Yu also nodded solemnly.

At this moment, a servant entered the palace, bowed and said, "Your Majesty, a man came from outside the palace, claiming to be from the Haixi Empire, and said that he had an agreement with His Majesty to bring weapons to His Majesty."

There was joy in Cao Xuan's eyes, and he stood up in a blink of an eye, with an ecstatic expression on his face.

coming!

Ewell is finally here!

After waiting for such a long time, it is finally here.

Cao Xuan ordered: "Please!"

The servant turned around to deliver the order, and after a short time, Aiweier entered.With a happy expression on his face, he stood still and said, "Aiweier, I have seen His Majesty the Emperor. Now that I have come as promised, I don't know whether His Majesty's promise in the past will count or not?"

Cao Xuan said: "Naturally, I don't know if Mr. Aiweier has brought a rifle manufacturing machine. If there is such a weapon, I will not hesitate to reward you. Not only will I give you money, but I will also make you the Marquis of the Wei Kingdom , I will give you a piece of land."

Aiweier was travel-laden, and was quite happy to hear Cao Xuan's words. He said in a deep voice, "I brought one machine for making rifles. I brought two machines for making bullets."

"The entire set of procedures involves a lot of machines, and the machines brought in are extremely heavy. Especially, this time I spent a lot of money to buy people from China in order to clear the customs."
