Gu Lie was startled, then immediately raised his eyebrows and said:
"No, I didn't stab Lou Zi!"
Lu Yuan looked at Gu Lie with a strange look on his face and said:
"Then what can I help you with?"
Then Gu Lie looked at Lu Yuan and said mysteriously:
"The Gilded Dynasty!!"
Gilded Dynasty?
Lu Yuan was startled, then curled his lips and said:
"That will be three years later. Why are you so anxious?"
Gu Lie, on the other hand, dismounted in a hurry and came to Lu Yuan's side and said anxiously:
"Brother!! We are really in a hurry!! This time is different from the past!! This was originally three years, but it is different now!
Brother, look at it, our mortar can be used on the grassland, and the effect will be great! !
In addition, there is also food and grass. Brother, you also made these potatoes. I eat the potatoes you grow over there every day. Do you think our Great Zhou Dynasty is still short of food? "
After listening to Gu Lie's words, Lu Yuan raised his eyebrows slightly, looked at Gu Lie in a funny way and said:
"Okay, your kid will start thinking about things after you go out. What else?"
Gu Lie felt a little proud after hearing Lu Yuan's praise, and then said quickly:
"There is also a railway, brother. You also built this railway. You also know how much effort our Zhou Dynasty will have to save on logistics with this railway. I came back by train when I came back.
And I heard that the railway here in the north has begun to be built towards the Gilded Dynasty. The speed at which we build the railway is not fast.
It can be said that by the end of the year, we will have everything ready!
It is estimated that the war will start next year. The Ministry of War has already drafted a charter. Taking advantage of this festive day, the Ministry of War will bypass the cabinet and submit the document directly to the top.
Brother, you have to help me, you must keep the position of coach for me! ! "
After Gu Lie finished speaking, the soldiers who came back with Gu Lie behind him, look at me and I look at you.
Who is this person...
Everyone is in the south and the news is not available.
What's more, although the Ministry of War is one of the six ministries, it actually has no deep relationship with the other ministries.
Therefore, everyone really doesn’t know much about some things in this imperial city.
Everyone just knew that Lu Yuan made the mortar.
After all, the prince often talked about it when he was in the south.
But when I hear it now, it’s potatoes again, railroad or something...
Is it all this Lu Yuan?
but……
Even so...
This Lu Yuan is not from the Ministry of War, right?
Moreover, even if he is from the Ministry of War, this is not what Lu Yuan has to say...
Why did Gu Lie come to Lu Yuan to beg...
Shouldn't we go to the Emperor for this matter?
At this time, Lu Yuan thought for a while after listening to Gu Lie's words.
This matter...
There is no rush!
Gotta find oil.
Then get the fuel turbine.
What can you do with a fuel turbine?
First of all, of course, the gun!
Various models of rifles, Gatlings, these messy guns can all be started!
Of course, the Zhou Dynasty could have made guns.
However, a barrel with rifling inside is extremely expensive to make.
There is no way, the workshops of the Great Zhou Dynasty are all driven by spiritual cores, which are naturally extremely expensive.
It's okay to make a barrel, but it's really too expensive to have rifling inside.
But with fuel turbines, guns can be built at a very low cost.
Of course, besides the gun, there is another most important thing.
What is the strongest thing in a place like the grassland?
King of Land War!
tank!
What does a tank belong to in the grassland?
Thousands of miles of push! !
Just push it sideways! !
The tanks after the second industrial revolution faced off against the nomadic civilization armed with spears and sabers.
what is that?
That was a one-sided crushing and massacre! !
We don’t need many tanks, we only need a hundred of them, just push them horizontally!
There is no need to use any of these messy tactics such as infantry-tank coordination and the 3-3 system!
Just two words, horizontal push!
Even Lu Yuan could do some fancy things.
For example, the most famous Zeppelin.
Of course, the words Zeppelin may be unfamiliar to everyone.
But if you say another name, everyone may be familiar with it.
To Ling Bo Ling.
What? Not familiar yet?
Kirov! !
This Kirov is actually a product of World War I. At that time, this thing was considered invincible.
This was no longer possible during World War II, mainly because white phosphorus bombs were developed at that time.
But here, let alone white phosphorus bombs, there are no hairs on them.
This is a big city that is difficult to attack. Tanks cannot open the door, or it is useless to enter the street fighting.
Then Kirov goes in and explodes.
Just blow it up twice and it's done.
Therefore, this battle against the Gilded Dynasty cannot be rushed.
Because the prerequisite for all this is that Lu Yuan still has to find oil and build a fuel turbine.
This will work.
Besides that, Lu Yuan thought of something.
That is……
That Snow Dragon Sun Armor must be stopped immediately and stopped being produced.
Pure waste.
Soon, Lu Yuan led Gu Lie and his party into the palace.
There's nothing to say next, it's just the normal process.
People from the Ministry of War came forward and Gu Qingwan awarded him a reward.
Lu Yuan did not participate in these messy things. He just stood in his own place and waited for these people to finish talking about his ore refiner.
After the meeting was over, Lu Yuan went to talk to Gu Qingwan about the Snow Dragon Sun Armor and so on, so he quickly stopped.
This matter cannot be discussed in the court meeting.
Others cannot understand.
In addition, Gu Lie just said that people from the Ministry of War are already drafting regulations to prepare for a decisive battle with the Gilded Dynasty.
Lu Yuan had to stop this.
It doesn't count as a stop, because once Lu Yuan's internal combustion engine comes out, all the current regulations and preparations will be invalid.
Then the work will be in vain.
Lu Yuan is waiting.
In about an hour, the necessary procedures were completed.
Sure enough, the Minister of War began to report about the Gilded Dynasty.
Gu Qingwan, listening to the words of the Minister of the Ministry of War, also sat in her seat and nodded slightly.
The sooner the Gilded Dynasty is eradicated, the better.
Nowadays, the Great Zhou Dynasty is different from the past, especially the laying of railways is already going towards the Gilded Dynasty.
With the railway, the logistics of the Zhou Dynasty were so simple!
Before this.
If one million grains are transported to the battlefield, it is estimated that only six to seven million will be left.
This loss is too great.
And it's extremely slow.
But now with the railway, it can be transported directly to Mingyu Pass in two days with almost no loss.
It goes without saying how much food the Zhou Dynasty will have in one year.
It can be said that the Zhou Dynasty is now fully capable of fighting a decisive battle!
You can make plans now. Give the Zhou Dynasty one year to prepare and start the war directly!
The original calculation was three years later.
However, in the past three years, the Zhou Dynasty was making preparations, but at the same time, the Gilded Dynasty was also recuperating.
Moreover, in the past two or three years, the Gilded Dynasty will definitely raid the valleys and harass the borders.
With such consumption, it would be better to have a decisive battle as soon as possible!
Erase the Gilded Dynasty from history!
Now, Gu Qingwan was just thinking about whether her brother should join in the planning of this war.
Gu Qingwan, who was sitting on the throne, glanced at her younger brother.
At this time, Gu Lie did not look at himself, nor at the Minister of War, but at Lu Yuan who was at the end of the ministers list.
At this time, Lu Yuan lowered his head and remained silent, wondering what Lu Yuan was thinking.
Finally, the Minister of War finished his words.
Gu Qingwan looked at the ministers below and said loudly:
"Do you have any objections, dear sirs?"
Although this is the first time this matter has been mentioned in front of the Emperor, everyone knows it in private.
There is no objection to this matter.
After Gu Qingwan finished asking, he was also ready to appoint the person in charge of this charter.
Gu Qingwan looked at Gu Lie who was looking at her expectantly.
Just when I was about to open my mouth.
Lu Yuan stood up.
oh?
Look at this...
Gu Qingwan understood that Lu Yuan wanted to support Gu Lie.
Um……
In fact, the reason why Lu Yuan was sent to meet Gu Lie today was to show everyone in the court that Lu Yuan was his favorite person.
In addition... Gu Qingwan also knew that Gu Lie would definitely ask Lu Yuan for help when he came back.
So I want to see what Lu Yuan thinks.
From this point of view, Lu Yuan was persuaded by Gu Lie.
Gu Qingwan thought for a while.
That’s all.
In that case, then just listen to Lu Yuan...
However, what no one expected was...
After Lu Yuan stood up, he said directly:
"Your Majesty, my lord..."
As soon as Lu Yuan finished speaking, Yan Chonghui, the chief minister of the cabinet standing at the forefront, immediately said with a cold face:
"Sir Lu, in this court, you must address yourself as Your Majesty. This is the most basic etiquette. Didn't anyone teach you the most basic etiquette when you were knighted?!"
Lu Yuan finished speaking.
Gu Qingwan frowned slightly and looked at Yan Chonghui below.
Gu Lie, on the other hand, raised his head and looked at Yan Chonghui with an unhappy expression.
Lu Yuan raised his eyebrows and glanced at Yan Chonghui, then said:
"oh."
The next second, Lu Yuan looked at Gu Qingwan on the throne and said:
"Sister Wan, I do not support the regulations of the Ministry of War."
Lu Yuan's words instantly silenced the entire hall.
Gu Lie was startled, and his mouth suddenly opened, revealing a row of big white teeth in a smile.
But while smiling, Gu Lie suddenly felt something was wrong.
Um? ?
wrong! !
Wait a moment……
not support? ?
what does it mean? ?
Gu Qingwan also wanted to laugh, but as an emperor, he could still manage his expression.
Gu Qingwan tensed up.
As for Lu Yuan's sudden objection, Gu Qingwan was very curious and said:
"Why object?"
Lu Yuan directly called Sister Wan...
It seemed like it went right by.
And this Yan Chonghui was so angry that his teeth itched.
You're arrogant, aren't you? !
Wait!
After today, let me see how arrogant you are!
There are some things that cannot be guaranteed just because the emperor protects you! !
Lu Yuan didn't know what evil Yan Chonghui was holding back, but he was thinking about how to say this.
An internal combustion engine requires oil to start.
But, no oil has been found so far.
After Lu Yuan thought for a moment, he said:
"Your Majesty, the steam engine has just been made not long ago. In fact, the steam engine can be used not only in trains but also in industry.
It can also be used in many other places.
The function of the steam engine has not yet been fully discovered. After the function of the steam engine is fully discovered, it will not be too late to make regulations. "
After Lu Yuan finished speaking, the ministers in the hall fell into deep thought.
Everyone knows what Lu Yuan means.
For example, if you want to prepare for a decisive battle, you need to make a lot of weapons.
Based on the current production capacity of the Great Zhou Dynasty, if a weapon costs one yuan now, then after the Great Zhou Dynasty makes one million weapons.
Suddenly I discovered that this steam engine only costs 20 cents to make a weapon. Is it a loss for what I made before?
So everyone understands what Lu Yuan means.
It's just, how long do you have to wait?
Regarding Lu Yuan's statement, some people support it and some people oppose it.
What these opponents think is that this gilded dynasty is already on its last legs, so it should take advantage of now to deal a fatal blow.
If this continues, we may be able to save a lot of money and manpower.
However, the nights are long and the dreams are many.
And even if we prepare now, it’s actually not bad.
Whether it's trains or food, the Zhou Dynasty is prosperous, absolutely affordable, and affordable.
Of course, the people who objected in their hearts did not stand up and say anything.
Because everyone knows that no matter what everyone opposes, in the end... the emperor will probably listen to Lu Yuan.
So, why bother to stand up and talk useless nonsense.
And sure enough, after Lu Yuan finished speaking, Gu Qingwan didn't ask others for their opinions at all.
I agreed immediately!
The main reason is that the treasury for the first half of the year has not been released yet, and Gu Qingwan still doesn't know how much money there is in the treasury.
I always feel a little unsure.
It would be nice to put this matter off for a while.
Let’s first look at the amount of silver in the national treasury. Although the Zhou Dynasty is now booming.
But you have to make a calculation.
Always leave some money for emergencies.
Especially now that we are just having a good time, we can't go wrong by playing it safe.
This matter has been decided.
Lu Yuan planned to reveal his ore refiner.
However, right now.
The two servants of the Ministry of Personnel suddenly stood up and said:
"Your Majesty, I have something to report."
These two officials and servants suddenly stood up, not to mention what others were doing.
The Minister of the Ministry of Personnel and the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel looked back at the two ministers in their department in confusion.
What are these two people doing? !
What to play?
Others in the hall were also confused at this time.
At this great court meeting, basically the ministers and ministers of various ministries came to the table.
Because everything that happens in each department must be discussed within the department first, summarized internally, and then the minister will present it in a unified way at the court meeting.
And in a situation like this, something is going to happen.
At this time, Gu Qingwan raised her eyebrows slightly, looked at the two attendants below and said:
"What's the matter?"
The next second, the two people stepped forward, holding the Chao Hut, looking at Gu Qingwan and bowing respectfully:
"Your Majesty, I want to serve as Baron Lu Yuan. In the past ten days, I have secretly embezzled and hid more than 2,000 kilograms of spiritual power cores worth approximately 600,000!
Moreover, Lu Yuan's behavior was extremely arrogant and bad, and he even dared to sell spiritual power cores in his own shop! "
