Half past noon.
As the sun becomes more intense.
In the study room of the side hall of Chengyun Hall.
Xu Yi slowly withdrew his gaze towards Liaodong.
For it.
The situation in Liaodong and even the entire Liao region is now a foregone conclusion.
No matter how unwilling Xu Yan was to be the king of Liao, no matter how hostile he was to him.
All to no avail.
At least.
This was the case before the world was completely in chaos.
As for after the world is in chaos?
There is no need for Liao King Xu Yan to come looking for him.
He will go to find Xu Yan, King of Liao.
In the study room of the side hall of Chengyun Hall.
Xu Yi calmed down for a moment, then turned his attention to the heavy account books presented by Meng Shaoping.
As the heavy account book is constantly opened, new pages are opened.
Xu Yi's eyes, which had always been calm, gradually started to show ripples.
The brows gradually evolved from a light frown to a frown.
"The total gold and silver wealth is about 490,000 taels."
Xu Yi frowned and murmured in a low voice.
Nearly five hundred thousand taels of goods.
One can imagine how many killings Ji Yuye and others caused in Xialuo, Guangning, and Ningxian.
It's no exaggeration to say so.
Each tael of these nearly five hundred thousand taels of property was stained with the blood of a large number of Yan people.
Of course.
The dead are gone.
No amount of remembrance will help.
Fortunately.
The perpetrator may have died at the hands of Meng Shaoping's Red Blood Guards.
Or died at the hands of Gong Quanshan and others.
Or he was captured by Meng Shaoping and brought to Wang Camp.
To a certain extent.
Xu Yi can be regarded as giving an explanation to the people of Yan in Xialuo, Guangning and Ning counties.
But it's a pity.
due to various external factors.
This matter is destined to be unknown to outsiders.
In the study room of the side hall of Chengyun Hall.
Xu Yi slowly put down the account book in his hand.
Then he leaned his back against the back of the Taishi chair.
Cross your hands behind your head, and raise your legs naturally to the desk.
After all the distracting thoughts in your mind are cleared, your body and mind are completely relaxed.
Xu Yi slowly closed his eyes and kept thinking about today's events in his mind.
The first to bear the brunt was the interception and killing of Gong Quanshan and other five soldiers trapped in the camp.
The fact that Gong Quanshan and other five soldiers trapped in the camp were intercepted and killed can be regarded as a double-edged sword to a certain extent.
If this matter is not handled properly, it is very likely to cause trouble for future plans.
on the contrary.
If this matter is handled properly, the morale of the 21,000 soldiers in Wang's camp can be raised several levels again.
Therefore.
There is no room for carelessness in this matter.
Xu Yi pondered for a moment, and a general outline gradually came into his mind.
In another moment.
Xu Yi's lips moved slightly.
Silently spit out three big words - "Loyal Soul Hall."
The words are over.
Xu Yi returned to his previous posture again.
My mind gradually began to ponder about Xialuo City.
It can also be understood as Xu Qi's incident.
Although he sent two hundred red blood guards to garrison secretly in Xialuo City.
Two hundred ten-shot crossbows and three hundred twenty-shot crossbows were also mobilized.
Used to guard against possible invading enemies.
but.
There have always been only those who have been thieves for a thousand days in this world.
Is there any way to prevent thieves for a thousand days?
"How can we solve it once and for all?"
Xu Yi couldn't help but think to himself.
Of course.
As soon as the idea of settling things once and for all appeared, Xu Yi couldn't help but think...
Shaked his head.
Nothing else.
If you want to solve the problem once and for all, the best way is to raze Prince Dai's palace to the ground and completely take possession of Dai's land.
But it's a pity.
Before the world was completely in chaos, Xu Yi was also limited by the "rules".
And cannot act rashly.
Tens of breaths later.
Xu Yi, who had his eyes closed tightly, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing an almost cruel smile.
"It's also subject to the rules."
"Then let's fight tooth for tooth."
Xu Yi slowly opened his eyes and then looked out the window.
He secretly murmured in his heart: "It seems that we need to find some time, and I will meet Xu Jingqi for a while."
The words are over.
Xu Yi stood up from the imperial chair.
Then he paced back and forth in the study room of the side hall of Chengyun Hall.
As he was pacing, his mind was constantly refining a series of plans he had made for the prince.
certainly.
It is definitely not Xu Yi's temperament to passively take a beating and then retaliate in kind.
The plans it makes are more focused on "prevention."
after all.
The two workshops in Xialuo City were too important to Xu Yi at this time.
After a while.
The plan in Xu Yi's mind was completely completed.
Then he stopped and walked to the desk.
Lift up a pot of water and slowly pour it into the inkstone.
When the water in the inkstone is full, pick up another ink stick and grind it gently in the inkstone.
Wait until the ink is neither thick nor light.
Xu Yi took a piece of pure white rice paper and laid it flat on the writing desk.
Then he slowly took his seat in the Taishi chair.
Xu Yi sat on the Taishi chair, but he was not in a hurry to write.
Instead, he slowly closed his eyes.
and constantly checking and filling in the gaps in my mind.
Now everything has been solved or complete plans have been made.
Only the nearly 500,000 taels of gold and silver seized by Meng Shaoping have not yet been completely settled.
And because of Xu Yi’s temperament.
How could it allow nearly 500,000 taels of gold and silver to eat ashes in the warehouse?
What's more, the armor installed by the Xuanjia Campers and their horsemen has not been developed for a long time due to lack of money.
Now that he has received nearly 500,000 taels of "windfall", how can he continue to make the soldiers of Xuanjia Camp "red" and run for justice?
Half an hour later.
Xu Yi slowly opened his eyes, then picked up a wolf brush and slowly painted on the rice paper.
As the strokes of the langhao brush in Xu Yi's hand continue to wander on the white rice paper.
A lifelike picture of cavalry in armor and cavalry gradually appeared on the site.
The so-called armor and riding equipment, armor and riding equipment, refers to human armor, and equipment and equipment refers to horse armor.
Xu Yinxu Yi's paintings are too realistic.
The picture of the cavalry in armor and riding gear is just a picture.
But looking at it, it still gives people a trembling feeling that directly touches the soul.
Waiting for the final stroke to be settled.
Xu Yi paused his hand and looked at the half-dry ink on the picture of armored cavalrymen and cavalrymen.
The image of five thousand Xuanjia battalion soldiers, equipped with men and horses, armed with spears and wild goose feathers, gradually emerged in his mind, crushing all the way on the battlefield.
Even if the mountain collapses, his expression remains unchanged.
When I thought of such a scene, my heart was beating uncontrollably.
After realizing this.
Xu Yi chuckled, then shook his head slightly.
After your mood has completely calmed down.
Xu Yi once again raised the langhao pen in his hand.
The title on the upper right corner of the picture of cavalry in armor and cavalry says: "Iron Pagoda."
Three words fell.
Xu Yi's pen tip immediately moved down.
Yu wrote unhurriedly under the three big characters of Tiefutu
: "It is covered with five hundred and forty beetle leaves."
"Three hundred and thirty-two armor leaves..."
"Six hundred and seventy-nine leg skirt beetle leaves..."
"Bingdou Yuyi..."
"..."
"..."
"Each piece of armor weighs forty, nine pounds or twelve taels."
"If it's too important or too light, just throw it away."
Wait for the last word to fall.
Xu Yi then hung the Langhao pen in his hand high on the pen holder.
Then he looked at the masterpiece on the desk again.
After making sure everything is safe.
Xu Yi slowly made a strange shape with his hands, then placed it near his mouth and blew softly.
Whistles with a certain melody gradually floated into the distance from the study in the side hall of Chengyun Hall.
After more than ten breaths.
The whistle stopped and the lingering sound gradually dissipated.
Tens of breaths later.
The very light but very familiar footsteps of Leader Wenxin came from outside the study room of Chengyun Hall's side hall again.
"Dong dong dong."
Leader Wenxin stopped outside the study room in the side hall of Chengyun Hall and gently knocked on the door.
"Enter."
"yes."
After receiving Xu Yi's consent, Leader Wenxin gently opened the study door and stepped in.
"I ask my heart to pay homage to the master."
Leader Wenxin closed the door of the study, walked a few steps quickly, then raised his hands in salute.
"No gifts." Xu Yi waved his hand slightly, and then said, "If you are safe, you can come to the study to see me with the wedding gift list."
After hearing this, the leader of Wenxin bowed his hands again and said, "I obey."
The words are over.
Leader Wenxin turned around slowly and quickly left the side hall study.
Wait until the figure of leader Wenxin completely disappears from the study in the side hall of Chengyun Hall.
Xu Yi once again picked up the account book submitted by Meng Shaoping and looked at it carefully.
At the same time, his mind was constantly calculating the amount of gold and silver needed to equip the armor and riding equipment.
If it is made of ordinary iron, an iron pagoda can cost forty or fifty taels of silver.
However, if it is made of fine iron, an iron buoyant figure will cost about eighty taels of silver.
And made of fine steel, an iron buoyant figure costs at least one hundred and twenty taels of silver.
certainly.
Different materials are used, and the protective power of the armor made is naturally also different.
And with Xu Yi’s temperament of striving for excellence.
If you don’t do it, you don’t do it. If you do it, you should do the best.
Therefore, there is no doubt that the material used for the five thousand armored riding equipment of Wang Daying Xuanjia Camp must be made of fine steel.
Let's assume that a fine steel armor is worth one hundred and twenty taels of silver.
Five thousand tools is a total of 600,000 taels of silver!
Thinking about this.
Xu Yi frowned slightly, then relaxed quickly.
All that was left was a look of determination in his eyes.
...
...
Two quarters of an hour later.
Yang Xian'an, dressed in the official robe of Prince Yan's palace, followed the steps of leader Wen Xin and stepped into the study of the side hall of Chengyun Hall.
"Your Majesty, Yang Xian'an, pays homage to the Sixth Master."
Yang Xian'an stopped two steps away from the writing desk, then bowed his hands and saluted.
"Please forgive me first."
Xu Yi calmed down for a moment, then slowly raised his head with a chuckle and motioned for Yang Xian'an to take a seat in front of him.
"Thank you Mr. Liu."
Upon seeing this, Yang Xian'an once again bowed his hands in thanks, then silently stepped forward and took a seat in front of Xu Yi's writing desk.
After Yang Xianan was completely seated.
Xu Yi handed the account book in his hand to Yang Xianan.
Then he gave instructions: "Shaoping has brought a batch of gold and silver goods, and we will dispose of them all in the shortest possible time."
When Yang Xian'an heard this, his heart suddenly became clear.
Previously, Meng Shaoping handled all the gold and silver goods he transported on his behalf.
Therefore, for him, this matter is quite familiar.
"Follow the order."
Yang Xian calmed down and then took the order.
"Can you bring the wedding list?"
Xu Yi nodded slightly, then skipped the topic and said.
"Please take a look at it, Lord Six."
Upon hearing this, Yang Xian'an quickly took out several thick account books from his arms and sleeves and presented them in front of Xu Yi.
People may be close or distant, and rituals may be thick or thin.
Most of the generous gifts were given by dignitaries and aristocratic families in the two counties of Yan.
And what these people offer may be something that contains special meaning, or it may be something of great value.
Xu Yi nodded slightly, and then took several thick account books from Yang Xian'an.
"Sun Daohua, a pair of gold vases with cloud and phoenix patterns, a pair of yellow jade lamps with cloud patterns, six pieces of silk, six pieces of silk..."
"Pang Wenze has two large food horses, a pair of white jade double chi-eared cups, a pair of jasper chilong-pattern belt buckles, and a pair of blue and white mandarin ducks playing with water bottles."
"A pair of painted pottery horses from the Qu family, a pair of green and white jade phoenix-shaped beam vases, a pair of mutton-fat jade spire flower ornaments..."
"A sapphire banquet illustration of the Sanskrit family on the screen, a white jade boy's poem pendant, and six pieces of silk and satin..."
"..."
"..."
Xu Yi leisurely flipped through the gift list in his hand.
At the same time, he was preoccupied with weighing the intricate relationship between the person giving the gift and the person giving the gift, and analyzing the actual value of the gift.
After a while.
Xu Yi slowly closed the gift account book in his hand.
Then he raised his head to look at Yang Xian'an and said, "Blue and white jade phoenix-headed beam vase, green jade lotus pattern incense, black jade mountain inkstone, immortal drunken eight-way lamp..."
"Dispose of these things together."
"Remember to be subtle."
Yang Xian'an was slightly startled when he heard this, and wanted to persuade him a few words.
Just one day after the wedding, congratulatory gifts are sold.
If this matter spreads out, Xu Yi will be disgraced.
But he didn't have time to persuade him yet.
Then Xu Yi's face was filled with determination.
Without any choice.
Yang Xian'an had no choice but to accept the order and said: "Follow the order! I will handle it cleanly."
Xu Yi nodded slightly when he heard the words, and then spoke again and gave instructions: "After all these gifts and the gold and silver goods transported by Shaoping are sold, we should be able to get 700,000 taels of silver."
"All the money will be invested in armor and riding equipment."
"This matter is entirely left to you to handle."
"No matter what, we need to create at least three thousand armored riding equipment before July next year."
Yang Xian'an's face paused slightly when he heard this.
Then he said with excitement in his eyes: "I obey your order."
Xu Yi nodded slightly, and then took out the already dried picture of cavalrymen wearing armor and cavalry from the side of the desk.
"This is down to the specification."
"I ordered it to be made strictly according to the drawings."
"Remember, if your armor is less than forty and weighs nine pounds or twelve taels, it is considered a failure."
Xu Yi's face straightened, he solemnly handed it to Yang Xian'an, and then said in a deep voice.
Forty weighs nine kilograms and twelve taels, which is equivalent to about sixty-three kilograms in later generations.
This weight is just right for the soldiers of Xuanjia Camp.
This weight not only ensures the protective power of the Tiefutu armor, but also ensures the combat effectiveness of the Xuanjia battalion soldiers.
When Yang Xian'an heard this, his face also became serious, and he immediately took the order solemnly and said: "Follow the order."
Xu Yi nodded slightly and then said, "Go ahead, I'll wait for your good news."
"Yes." After hearing this, Yang Xian'an stood up and saluted again with his hands raised: "First, settle down and live up to the prince's high expectations."
The words are over.
Yang Xian'an slowly turned and left.
Fang and his party left the Chengyun Hall
.
Yang Xian'an couldn't wait to open the map given by Xu Yi.
Xu Yi's strict requirements also greatly aroused Yang Xian'an's curiosity.
As the folded armor and cavalry figure was slowly unfolded.
Fang glanced.
Yang Xian'an was stunned on the spot.
His eyes stared blankly at the lifelike picture of cavalry in armor and cavalry in his hands.
"The hood is extremely strong and prevents the eyes from being exposed. A collar is placed under the hood, and the armor leaves of the collar are pointed downwards. It can be lifted up when not in use, and can be lowered in times of war to protect the neck and face."
"Equipped with double layers of heavy armor, no swords or guns can penetrate it."
"Iron pagoda..."
"He is truly the number one killer in cavalry combat!"
Yang Xian'an stared blankly at the picture of cavalry in armor and riding equipment in his hand, feeling shocked in his heart.
