The Central Army refers to the Imperial Guards in the imperial city. They are respectively in charge of the Central Leading Army and the Central Guarding Army, and are responsible for the safety of the capital.
There are Xiahou Yuan, Xiahou Dun, Cao Ren and other clan generals outside to supervise the military. Only when Cao Pi has the central army in his hands can he sit back and relax!
Dian Wei and Xu Chu had controlled the Chinese army for so many years, but were suddenly driven away by Cao Pi.
Although everyone in the hall was somewhat sympathetic, they could understand Cao Pi's behavior, so they didn't say anything.
"By the way, now that the late king has passed away, Liu Bei and Liu Qi from Jingzhou and Sun Quan from Jiangdong have taken the opportunity to harass us. It's really hateful."
Cao Pi sneered and said,
"I also hope that General Zhengnan will set off immediately, continue to be an orphan, capture Jiangling for the imperial court, and eliminate those rebellious officials and traitors as soon as possible."
"The King of Wei has an order, how can his subordinates refuse?"
Yang Ling cupped his hands.
"Please rest assured, King Wei, my subordinates will definitely capture Jiangling!"
"That's good. If General Zhengnan comes forward, Jiangling can be taken!"
Cao Pi laughed happily and said,
"General Zhengnan fought bloody battles at the front, but whatever needs he has, he will definitely satisfy them at the rear!"
Everyone talked for a while, then each stood up and left.
After leaving Prince Wei's Mansion, Xu Chu approached Yang Ling and said with a big smile,
"After so many years, I finally have the opportunity to make great achievements with my eldest brother!"
"You idiot, you don't know anything and you're still proud of yourself!"
Dian Wei sighed.
Compared with Xu Chu, he was more sensible and could feel that Cao Pi deliberately transferred them away from the central army.
"Second brother, fourth brother is right. No matter what, the most important thing is that we brothers are together."
Yang Ling patted Dian Wei and Xu Chu on the shoulders and said with a smile.
"What the elder brother said is absolutely true!"
Dian Wei said nothing and just nodded.
The three of them returned to Yang Ling's house together, and Yang Ling sent someone to invite Zhao Yun.
When Zhao Yun found out that Dian Wei and Xu Chu were transferred to Yang Ling's tent, he was both surprised and happy.
"This is great, we four brothers can finally work together and fight together!"
"It's such a good thing, we really need to celebrate it."
Xu Chu looked at Yang Ling eagerly.
How could Yang Ling not know what he was thinking, so he smiled and said,
"I'll order people to prepare wine and food later, let's have a good drink!"
The other three people all responded with a bang!
Yang Ling put aside her troubles for the time being and had a drink with her three brothers, feeling very happy.
By the time I woke up, it was already sunset.
Yang Ling glanced at the three people sleeping soundly in the hall, quietly got up and walked towards the backyard.
He came to Huang Yueying's yard, opened the door and walked in.
Huang Yueying was coaxing Yang Yue to eat. When she saw Yang Ling arriving, she quickly handed the child to the maid and came forward with a smile.
"Why are you here, husband?"
"If you have nothing to do, let's see Madam."
Yang Ling smiled and asked,
"By the way, is it customary for the father-in-law and mother-in-law to live in Xudu?"
"How can you not get used to it when your husband arranges it?"
Huang Yueying pursed her lips and smiled, looking quite relaxed.
After Huang Chengyan and his wife knew that Huang Yueying was married to Yang Ling, they no longer had any objections to Huang Yueying, and even took the initiative to come to Xudu to visit her.
The estrangement between Huang Yueying and her parents has completely disappeared.
"That's good."
Yang Ling smiled, changed the topic and asked,
"Did you receive the letter I wrote to you in Jiangling?"
Huang Yueying nodded,
"After receiving the letter, I started to conduct experiments according to my husband's request. Now the results have been achieved, but further experiments are needed."
"That's great!"
Yang Ling's spirit was lifted!
Seeing him happy, Huang Yueying was also sincerely happy.
Suddenly she seemed to remember something and said curiously,
"I just don't understand why my husband calls it the red cannon. I think the name is weird."
"It was just a flash of inspiration."
Yang Ling chuckled.
After hearing what he said, Huang Yueying stopped asking further questions.
"By the way, there is one more thing. Please agree to be your husband, madam."
"Husband, please tell me, I will definitely agree to my husband!"
"From now on, any ordnance developed by the craftsman's workshop must not be reported again. Do you understand?"
Yang Ling said softly,
"It is best to conduct research with the help of resources provided by the imperial court, and then keep the research results privately."
Huang Yueying was stunned for a moment, and then understood,
"Husband is worried..."
"good."
Yang Ling nodded and didn't let her say anything.
You must not have the intention of harming others, and you must not have the intention of guarding against others.
Although Cao Pi strongly supported Yang Ling's southern expedition, it can still be seen that he was wary of Yang Ling from the transfer of Dian Wei and Xu Chu from the central army.
After all, Yang Ling is also a time traveler and has known China for five thousand years.
The cunning rabbit dies and the lackey is cooked.
When the birds are gone, the good bow is hidden.
The enemy's country is destroyed and his advisers are dead.
He still understood such a simple truth.
Therefore, Yang Ling still has to keep a few more hands on Cao Pi.
"Please don't worry about this, husband. I have a very good relationship with several great craftsmen. As long as my husband is willing, I can persuade them to come over and join me at any time."
Huang Yueying said seriously.
"It is truly a blessing for a husband to be able to marry a wife."
Yang Ling said, taking Huang Yueying into his arms and getting intimate with her.
"Husband, Yue'er is still here, don't stay here..."
Huang Yueying said angrily.
Yang Ling laughed loudly, picked her up by the waist, and strode towards the boudoir.
…
After staying in Xudu for a few more days to ensure the stability of the court, Yang Ling planned to take Dian Wei, Xu Chu and others to Jiangling.
But before setting off, Yang Ling took them to the mountains outside Xudu City.
"Why did brother bring us here?"
Xu Chu said doubtfully.
"Yes, didn't we agree to leave for Jiangling today?"
Dian Wei was also a little confused.
"Please be patient for a moment."
Yang Ling smiled mysteriously,
"I brought you here today to show you a baby!"
He led the way on horseback, and after a while, the group came to an open space.
I saw a group of people playing with a few dark pipes in the open space, and Huang Yueying was among them.
"Brother Ziyi must have asked his sister-in-law to research some new treasure!"
Seeing this situation, Gan Ning couldn't help but grinned and said,
Seeing the arrival of Yang Ling and others, Huang Yueying came forward with a few craftsmen and greeted them.
"Madam, what happened to the red cannon?"
"It has been debugged and is ready for test firing."
After hearing the conversation between Yang Ling and his wife, Xu Chuqi said,
"Red cannon, what is this?"
"The name sounds similar to an artillery piece?"
Zhao Yun groaned.
"Although the names are similar, the power is still very different."
Yang Ling smiled, nodded and said to Huang Yueying,
"Excuse me, madam."
Huang Yueying turned around and took several craftsmen with her, preparing to test-fire the red cannon.
Everyone stood in the distance, watching a craftsman holding a torch and lighting the fuse at the end of the red cannon.
