Start Being a Vassal King Today - Chapter 146
[Chapter 146 Mo Yu]
“Beidi’s army is approaching the city of Yanguan?”
It’s already noon.
Zhao Xu ordered the dining room to cook a few dishes, and had a drink with Mo Yu in the palace pavilion.
After hearing what Mo Yu said, he was surprised.
“The Beidi people asked the emperor to hand over Kutu, otherwise they will attack the city.” Mo Yu sighed.
Zhao Xu frowned, “I didn’t expect that a Kutu would mobilize the people of Beidi so much.”
“Mule Hongzhen, this evil wolf, has always had revenge. This is just the beginning. Your Highness, you should be careful.” Mo Yu’s voice muffled.
Zhao Xu drank the wine in his glass, “As long as Yanguan is not broken, the king will be safe for the time being.”
Speaking of Yanguan, Mo Yu sighed, “As long as the father of the general is here, Yanguan will be fine, but now I don’t know how many people in the capital are staring at this position, they use Yanguan as a tool to fight for power, but they don’t know that if Yanguan is lost, it will be in danger.”
Then, he said: “It doesn’t matter if you don’t mention it, since the last general has followed His Highness, from now on Your Highness is the only one to follow.”
Zhao Xu nodded.
It is difficult for him to interfere in the affairs of the court, after all, he has no right to speak in the court.
“Since this is the case, Captain Mo can just do things with peace of mind under my command. In the future, if there is a loss at Yanguan, I will definitely not sit idly by.”
“Yes, Your Highness.” Mo Yu said.
He came to seek refuge with the King of Yan this time, one is the meaning of his father.
One is that after witnessing King Yan’s army in the last battle, he was extremely shocked.
During this time, every night he would recall the silver torrent of steel.
If he can lead such an army against Beidi, he will die without regret.
The two are drinking wine.
At this time, someone came to report that Chang Wei was back.
Zhao Xu said: “It’s just in time, let him in.”
Not long after, Chang Wei left to see him.
Seeing Mo Yu, he exclaimed, Captain Mo, why are you here? ”
Zhao Xu then told about Mo Yu.
“It’s really absurd, the defeat of Beidi, Captain Mo is also meritorious, why should the captain’s official position be cut. “Chang Wei’s face turned red.
“This is an intrigue in the court, so don’t mention it again. From now on, you and Captain Mo will be in charge of the royal army. “Zhao Xu said.
“General Mo has a great reputation, and the tiger father has no dogs. Captain Mo is subdued under the command of the last general. It is better for the last general to give up his seat and assist Captain Mo.” “Chang Wei said.
Mo Yu was taken aback, and waved his hands again and again, “General Chang, you are setting the junior general on the fire. My father once said that although the junior general is in Yanguan, he is not as good as the general in actual combat. Today he is going to His Highness.” , How dare to overstep, Mo only wants to serve under the general’s command. ”
Zhao Xu nodded with a smile.
If Mo Yu is not humble at all, he has to consider whether to keep him.
After all, Chang Wei has been tested by him and he can be trusted. No one can take his place.
Looking at it now, He is still a measured person. He is
not arrogant because he is the son of Mo Di.
Chang Wei pushed it a few more times, Mo Yu shook his head again and again, and finally said: “If the general continues to behave like this, Mo Yu will be in the capital. Seeing
that Mo Yu insisted on refusing, Chang Wei had no choice but to stop.
When he was in the Forbidden Army, Mo Yu had a higher official position than him. That’s
why he made such a push. He said: “In this case, we will work together to serve His Highness.” . ”
” Good. ” Mo Yu raised his wine glass.
Chang Wei also raised his wine glass at this time, and the two drank it all in one gulp.
Zhao Xu looked at the two of them and said to Chang Wei: “In that case, Captain Mo will leave it to you and be yours for now. Lieutenant general. ”
“Yes, Your Highness.” Chang Wei said.
He felt that this position was just right, after all, Mo Yu was the captain in Yanguan.
And because he had followed Mo Di for a long time, he was familiar with military affairs.
Now that the royal army has expanded to 60,000, he is really too busy alone.
With Mo Yu around, he could relax a bit.
Mo Yu wanted to say something more, but was stopped by Zhao Xu with his eyes.
Feeling grateful, he said, “Thank you, Your Highness, for your trust.”
“You don’t doubt the people you employ, and you don’t use the people you suspect. This king still has this kind of tolerance.” Zhao Xu said.
In the last purge in the army, all dishonest generals were subdued by soldiers.
This is enough to illustrate a problem. His prestige in the army is enough to erase the influence of generals on soldiers.
Soldiers will not follow the general to rebel against him.
This is the embodiment of his advantages in following the mass line.
His influence penetrated into the hearts of every soldier, and they were fighting for King Yan.
This is the slogan they shouted.
Soldiers in the ancient tradition belonged to generals, and it didn’t work for him.
This is also the reason why he dared to use Mo Yu.
In the current army, apart from Chang Wei, there is really no one with more military qualities than Mo Yu.
After all, Mo Yu was born in the general family and has been familiar with military books since childhood.
According to Chang Wei, people in the army are also very optimistic about Mo Yu.
Therefore, he also intends to exchange his loyalty with the position of lieutenant general.
Agreed on this.
Zhao Xu asked Chang Wei to lead Mo Yu back to familiarize himself with the barracks, and by the way began to recruit new soldiers.
At this moment, there was a sudden loud noise, and he was startled.
Chang Wei and Mo Yu were shocked.
Zhao Xu thought for a while, then suddenly smiled and said: “It’s nothing, there have been such movements these days.
”
Wang Ying, who was making a clay cannon with a potter, was so frightened that he almost broke the clay core in his hand, deaf and trembling.
“This evil obstacle.” Wang Ying stared at the direction of the loud noise and gritted his teeth.
This is a good thing Wang Chong did.
After King Yan left that day, Wang Chong became serious with Black Gunpowder.
Every day is to grind charcoal, sulfur, and saltpeter, then mix and explode.
He also kept saying that it was a secret mission given to him by King Yan.
He was thinking about whether to use a stick to teach Wang Chong a lesson.
Suddenly I saw Wang Chong running out of a small courtyard.
This is the yard he specifically asked to go to.
“It’s done, it’s done.” Wang Chong shouted while running.
His face was swarthy, like a madman.
Wang Ying was out of breath when he saw this, although he is also a person who doesn’t care about his image.
But Wang Chong was simply too embarrassing for him.
Most of all, it frightened him and the potters.
Almost broke the mud cannon that was about to succeed.
“Did you lose your mind and go crazy?” Wang Ying was anxious, and pointed at Wang Chong, “Are you trying to blow up the military commander? This movement is getting bigger and bigger every day.”
Wang Chong laughed loudly, “If the movement is loud, it proves that the child has done it .” That ‘s right.”
Then the task that King Yan taught him was nothing else but making black powder.
According to King Yan’s intention, the power of Da Song’s black powder has not yet reached its maximum.
So King Yan gave him an approximate ratio and asked him to try it.
For the past two days, he has been groping for this.
Today, the same amount of gunpowder finally exploded with the loudest sound.
“I won’t talk to you anymore. Your Highness has finished my work. Father, your work is still far behind. It’s too slow.” Wang Chong laughed.
Then, under Wang Ying’s angry eyes, he ran out of the military department and headed towards the palace.
He wanted to tell King Yan the news.
After the notification, he entered the palace and saw King Yan in the pavilion.
“Your Highness, the gunpowder has been tested.” Wang Chong said excitedly.
Zhao Xu nodded, “That’s right, but it’s only half done.”
“Half?” Wang Chong suddenly looked confused.
