Zhang Fu was depressed.
I thought the training sergeant was a hot potato, but unexpectedly there were two...
Judging from Han Guan's intentions, he had his mind set on the Second Artillery Bureau, hoping that he would come forward to write a letter to the court and introduce new divine machine guns into Guangxi.
Zhang Fu of the Second Artillery Bureau also heard that imitating the Annan Shen cannon was not a difficult task for those craftsmen. But, how could the imperial court give priority to supplying advanced divine machine guns to Guangxi?
If there are good things, it is natural to keep close to the capital and the Northland Fortress.
"Wait a minute, not all of the captured Annan cannons were transported to the capital, but some were transported to the Guilin Guards Station, right?"
Zhang Fu looked at Han Guan with squinted eyes.
The Annan cannon is more powerful than the Damingshen cannon. Zhang Fu knows this, and Han Guan also knows that some Annan cannons were shipped to the capital, but it is not just the Second Artillery Bureau of the capital that is responsible for imitating them, the Guilin Guards There are also specialized craftsmen in the institute who are responsible for the preparation of firecrackers, magical cannons, and gunpowder.
With Han Guan's shrewdness, he would never give up the opportunity to imitate the Annan cannon.
Han Guan sighed and said: "The number of craftsmen in Guangxi is insufficient, and it is difficult to imitate a large number of equipment. However, the Second Artillery Bureau is different. There are the largest number of craftsmen with the strongest ability, both in terms of material reserves and manufacturing scale. How many places can be copied in a year only by relying on the health clinics affiliated to Guangxi Dusi?"
"Since the imperial court is interested in using troops against Annan, it should make preparations in advance and let the Second Artillery Bureau send a batch of divine machine guns as a priority. When the war starts in the future, the Beijing army can come lightly and not be delayed for too long. The most important thing is yes……"
Zhang Fu raised his eyebrows.
Han Guan paused and then said: "I received news that the Beijing Army's Shenji Battalion has undergone major changes. The power of the guns and artillery has increased a lot. The reason is that the Second Artillery Bureau has developed a new type of gunpowder."
"New gunpowder?"
Zhang Fu was a little surprised.
Han Guan nodded heavily and said: "Although this news is not confidential, not many people know it. Why do you think I chose you to train sergeants? Because only you can get the new gunpowder and new magic machine from the Second Artillery Bureau. gun."
"Why me? As long as Master Dusi submits a letter, the court will definitely..."
Zhang Fu frowned.
Han Guan interrupted Zhang Fu's words and said seriously: "Since you arrived in Guangxi, you must have known how much the emperor attaches importance to you. In the battle against Hu Du, the emperor appointed you as the vanguard. This pair of people has never led alone. It is extremely risky and unusual for a general to fight with soldiers. Although I don't know why the emperor values you so much, you have not let him down. Your opening your mouth now is far more effective than anyone else's."
Zhang Fu was also a little confused. He was reading a book at home and was suddenly sent to Nanning, Guangxi by Zhu Yunqi. Then he was sent as a vanguard. Now he was promoted to the commanding officer based on military merit. This kind of promotion speed is rare.
If I say that I have a background, that's all I need is the emperor's trust and support.
But he has no background. The biggest background is his father Zhang Yu, who has been floating on the sea fighting Japanese pirates. Another background is King Yan, but King Yan is busy training the Beijing army. In order to avoid suspicion, he will never recommend any " "One's own people" serve as officers.
But Zhu Yunwen not only used himself, but also gave himself great trust. He seemed to be sure that he could become an outstanding general.
And at the beginning, I didn’t even have ten
Enough confidence.
Han Guan patted Zhang Fu on the shoulder and left a message: "Everything is up to you."
Looking at Han Guan leaving, Zhang Fu felt that the burden on his shoulders became heavier.
The words Han Guan left behind were by no means just asking for new gunpowder from the imperial court, but were about the future.
Zhang Fu knew that being responsible for the training of sergeants would mean that he would be the "leader" of the Guangxi Guards when he went to Annan in the future. After all, the soldiers did not know the generals, and the generals did not know the soldiers, which was a taboo in combat.
While Zhang Fu was preparing to write the memorial, Pei Boxi, an old minister of the Annan Chen family, finally arrived in the capital.
Zhu Yunwen had been waiting for this person for some days. When Pei Boxi entered the capital, he was exempted from "learning etiquette" and allowed to enter the palace.
Pei Boxi seemed to be in his sixties, but in fact he was only in his early forties. However, sudden changes in Annan's country caused him to be worried, haggard, and his hair had grown.
"Pei Boqi, a minister of the Annan Chen family, comes to see the Ming Emperor!"
Pei Boxi knelt down and worshiped. As soon as he said a word, he was already filled with grief and burst into tears.
Zhu Yunwen was sitting there with a depressed look on his face. He didn't know that Emperor Jianwen had passed away, so he shouted "get up" twice without knowing how to stand up.
Jie Jin walked out, saluted Zhu Yunwen, then walked towards Pei Boxi, pulled him up, and said, "Sir, please calm down your grief and anger and explain your identity and origin."
Pei Boqi wiped his tears and shouted sadly: "Your Majesty, your Majesty, my name is Pei Boqi. My ancestors and father were both ruling officials of the Chen family in Annan. My mother is a close family member of the Chen family. Therefore, I have served the king since I was young and received a title." Rank 5, I was assigned to Wujiehou Chen Kezhen as my general, but..."
Tears flowed freely.
"Last year, the treacherous minister Hu Jiman and his son killed the emperor and usurped the throne, massacred loyal ministers, and killed hundreds of people. His brothers and wives were also killed. Hu's father and son even sent people to arrest the minister, hoping to eliminate him in one fell swoop. When I heard about the incident, Abandoning the army and fleeing, he moved into the mountains and forests, living in remote areas and hanging out with the wild apes..."
Following Pei Boxi's description, the court officials and Zhu Yunwen could imagine that that period of time was probably not easy for Pei Boxi.
It is estimated that a period of time has passed since the days of Tarzan.
"I am a minister of the Chen family. I am loyal and loyal to heaven and earth! However, I am depressed and powerless. It is even more difficult to avenge the Chen family and my family with my own strength! Later I heard that the Ming Dynasty flew to Zhennanguan and wiped out Hu Du's army. , Hu Du conferred the title! I then ventured out of the mountains, climbed over the mountains and ridges, and evaded Hu's soldiers until I arrived at Zhennanguan..."
Zhu Yunwen listened to Pei Boxi's words and nodded slightly.
His early appearance is indeed related to the changed history.
Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang was a special person. His internal governance was high-pressure, accompanied by many bloody storms. However, in terms of external relations, he was quite "idealistic". For example, in response to Annan's invasion, he only issued edicts several times. , a few words of blame, and then no more.
Tolerating your enemies means harming yourself.
Guangxi in the Ming Dynasty was hurt like this for many years, until Zhu Yunwen drew his sword out of its sheath and wiped out Hu Du's army.
It was because of the bloody spirit and bravery of the Ming Dynasty sergeants that Pei Boxi ventured out to seek help from the Ming Dynasty.
"The treacherous minister Li Jiman was the son of the old official Li Guoqi. He was engaged in Chen family affairs and stole favors. His son Hu Hancang also wanted to be a noble official. Once he got his ambition, he killed him and changed his name to Hu Yiyuan. His son Ri Hu Huan, changed the name of the country to Dayu, wreaked havoc on the people, the people complained of injustice, cried out to heaven and knelt down on the earth, loyal ministers and good men
, I am heartbroken and heartbroken..."
Zhu Yunwen looked at Pei Boxi who was beating his chest and feet. He had to say that this person was a person with great talent in speech. His words, movements, expressions, and cadences were very arousing to people's emotions. Many courtiers were touched by this.
Pei Boqi laid the groundwork for a long time, and finally revealed his final purpose: "I ask for the power of Heaven, the lord of the clan, to raise troops to go south, to reestablish the descendants of the Chen family, and to take charge of this land. Then they will be far away from barbarians, admire their saintly virtues, respect their duties, and be a foreign vassal forever." .”
After a pause, Pei Boxi showed his determination and loyalty: "I don't know how to follow the example of Shen Baoxu. I dare to plead for death. I hope that your majesty will decline."
Zhu Yunwen looked at Pei Boxi who was prostrating. He had a profound understanding of the Central Plains culture.
This is not surprising. During the Ming Dynasty, no, it can be said that during the Han and Tang Dynasties, Annan and Goryeo greatly admired the Central Plains culture. They imitated the Central Plains settings in many aspects, including the imperial examination.
There was an imperial examination in Annan, and many of the contents of the imperial examination were Chinese culture.
Pei Boxi used the allusion of "Shen Baoxu" here, and this man is indeed a model of ancient loyalty and virtue!
During the Spring and Autumn Period, Wu Zixu and Wu Sun Wu led soldiers to attack the Chu State and captured Ying, the capital of Chu. King Zhao Zhao of Chu fled to Sui.
Wu Zixu failed to catch King Chu Zhao, so he lost his temper with King Chu Zhao's father.
Logically speaking, if you can't beat your son, it's okay to beat me. But the problem is that King Chu Zhao's father has died and is buried in the grave...
So Wu Zixu whipped the corpse three hundred times.
Of course, there is a hidden reason behind this. After all, Wu Zixu's father and brother were killed by the Chu family, so it is easy to understand why he would whip the corpse.
But Shen Baoxu thought that his old friend Wu Zixu had gone too far and went to Qin for help in order to restore the country. Qin did not want to help, so Shen Baoxu stood outside the Qin city wall and cried bitterly. He cried for seven days and nights, dripping water. Bu Jin (personally, I think this is an exaggeration in the history books), moved the monarchs and ministers of Qin with a play of "Crying Qin Ting".
It is said that Duke Ai of Qin wrote "Wuyi" in the poem "How can I say Wu Yi? I share the same robe with you. When the king raised an army, he repaired my sword and spear, and I share the same enemy with you." He then sent out five hundred chariots and sent the officials Zi Man and Zi. The tiger saved Chu and helped King Zhao of Chu recover his country.
At this time, Pei Boxi used the allusion of applying for Baoxu to tell the Ming emperors and ministers that if they did not agree, he would cry for days and nights until they agreed.
Zhu Yunwen didn't care about Pei Boxi's tears. After all, Pei Boxi was not Meng Jiangnu. She couldn't cry down the Great Wall, nor could she cry down the city of Nanjing. However, considering the image of the city, she had to comfort him: "Although I have heard about the Hu family's chaos, I can't believe it. Just a one-sided statement. You can stay in the capital temporarily until I send someone to investigate clearly and then make arrangements."
Pei Boxi was filled with sorrow and shouted: "The people are trapped in fire and water, suffering all the time. Please ask the Ming Dynasty to launch the heavenly troops as soon as possible to wipe out the villain of the Hu family!"
Zhu Yun nodded and asked, "Does the Chen family have any descendants?"
Pei Boxi looked bitter and said: "The Hu family is well prepared to cause chaos in the country, and the Chen family is probably... However, I was not in the city when I heard about the incident. I don't know much about what happened, or some lucky people escaped."
"The Beauty of the Sun and the Moon"
Zhu Yunwen frowned.
For Mr. Hu, if he was fully prepared to take action, Mr. and Mrs. Chen would be afraid that no one would be spared and they would escape. Isn't the probability of this happening too low?
However, history books do record that the Chen family had a descendant named Chen Tianping. Could it be that the historical records are wrong?
