PS: it's extra time today. There are three chapters in the evening. In addition, we'll roll for assists.
Golden Sunshine enveloped the palace, and the palace in the early morning seemed to exude a strong color of auspiciousness.
Luo Quan's words made Xiao Ming nod slightly. He didn't agree to give the gun to the Imperial Army, but agreed with Luo Quan's distrust of the vassal kings.
That's what a loyal general should say, and it's also a reason for him to win over.
"No one will give me this artillery production technology."
Xiao Ming answered Luo Quan's words in a firm tone.
"Your Highness You... " Luo Quan looked puzzled and even angry. It was reasonable to say that to other vassal Xiao Ming, but he couldn't understand that to the Imperial Guard.
Lu Fei is relieved when he hears Xiao Ming's words. He is really worried about Xiao Ming's acceptance, while Luo Xin seems to be thinking about something.
Luo Quan's reaction is expected by Xiao Ming. When he says that later in the court, the reaction of the officials will be greater than him.
But before that, he needs to fight for Luo Quan's support in court.
He explained: "the imperial court of the general is no longer the royal court. How can the imperial court be the imperial imperial court? The general asked himself, are the imperial court loyal to the royal family now?"
Luo Quan immediately speechless, he said: "not so, most of the generals in the forbidden army have noble children from other vassal states."
"In this case, what's the difference between giving artillery technology to the Imperial Army and giving it to the vassal kings?" Xiao Ming said lightly.
Luo Xin echoed: "yes, Dad, your highness is right. The artillery technology is in the hands of the vassal kings. It is estimated that it is only a matter of time for the barbarians to get the artillery technology. At that time, with the artillery and the barbarian cavalry, it will be more difficult for the state of Dayu."
"But is your highness going to hide the technology of this gun?" Luo Quan is still not reconciled.
The main station faction finally saw that the war against the barbarians would be tilted because of the artillery. Now Xiao Ming is going to destroy his hope, which makes him lose for a while.
With a slight smile, Xiao Ming said, "don't worry, general. I haven't finished my words yet. No matter the imperial guards or the northern vassal who resist the barbarians, what we need is artillery rather than artillery technology. In order not to be stolen by the barbarians, I think it's safe to stay in Qingzhou. As for artillery, I can sell it to the imperial court and the three northern vassal Wang, this king has done his utmost. After all, artillery is a matter of life and death in Qingzhou. "
Luo Quan breathed a sigh of relief. At least Xiao Ming hasn't done everything completely. There is some truth in saying that.
If this artillery technology is spread out, it is not a great benefit, but a great harm. After all, Chang'an is very complicated now.
"Your Highness Da Yi, it will be a misunderstanding of your highness." Luo Quan said.
"Well, the reason why I told the old general is that I still want the old general to show his strength in front of my father in the court. After all, I'm too weak to say anything by myself."
"Don't worry, your highness. This time, the general will fight for your highness." Luo Quan said.
From Luo Quan's point of view, Xiao Ming must be ready to hold on to his artillery skills in the court. He can sell his personal feelings with his own help.
Xiao Ming nodded with satisfaction.
As for artillery, Xiao Ming could not have taken it alone after this exposure, which he saw very clearly.
Because even Xiao Wenxuan would not remain calm at this time. He would certainly want to equip an Artillery Force to keep deterrence against the Golden Horde, and at the same time, he would have confidence at the negotiation table.
Moreover, the gun is related to the great interests of the country. Although Xiao Ming has made a great contribution, he will still be scolded by thousands of people if he makes a mistake, which is very unfavorable to the development of his fiefdom.
So after discussing with Zhan Xingchang, Pang Yukun, Niu Zhen and others, Xiao Ming decided not to give technology, but to sell artillery. In this way, the past in the broad sense is enough to stop the world.
At the same time, since ancient times, what makes the most money, of course, is selling arms.
After the gun is sold, the shells and gunpowder of the additional gun are consumables, and the maintenance of the subsequent gun is also money.
Only with money can he continuously upgrade industrial technology, purchase materials and develop other weapons and equipment.
Moreover, after buying Xiao Ming's arms, these northern vassal kings must have some scruples about Xiao Ming. After all, Xiao Ming is not happy to sell them, and they are not crazy. After all, the imperial army at this time must first be equipped with artillery, which will break the military balance for them.
In a word, Xiao Ming has grasped their lifeblood.
However, Xiao Ming is not stupid either. He will definitely not sell guns of the same power. Just like modern arms sales, he will surely produce a foreign trade version of guns to ensure his military superiority.
For example, his gun range is three li, and the gun range sold only needs one Li and two Li.
When the range and power of his artillery are further improved, he will sell the Sanli one.And the upgrading of artillery will inevitably lead to a new round of purchase, which will make him rich.
All the way to talk about artillery, four people to Chengqing palace.
Before it was time for the meeting to begin, ministers gathered in twos and threes to speak in Chengqing hall.
Xiao Ming's arrival immediately attracted the attention of the ministers, and many generals immediately flocked to greet him.
Many of the generals Xiao Ming didn't know him, but they still saluted one by one.
"Good nephew, good nephew!"
When Xiao Ming was chatting with a group of generals, a familiar voice came. Then Xiao Ming saw a fat man crowded in. It was no one else, but the king of Wei.
"Good nephew, I've been waiting for you in Chang'an City for many days." The king of Wei came up and patted Xiao Ming on the shoulder. He looked intimate.
Xiao Ming's shoulder hurt when he was patted by the king of Wei. The great victory in Cangzhou was Xiao Ming's first success, which also touched the light of the king of Wei.
He had heard Feng Deshui say that the king of Wei had written to Xiao Wenxuan about the supply of coal, iron, saltpeter and other materials. There was a strong taste of asking for help between the lines.
So what the king of Wei wanted to see most now was Xiao Ming. He was afraid that Xiao Ming would not cooperate with him in the court.
In fact, he wanted to visit Xiao Ming yesterday, but Xiao Ming was in the palace all the time. When Xiao Ming came back, there was a curfew in Chang'an City, so it was inconvenient for him to come out.
"Uncle Sanhuang, if it wasn't for yesterday's delay, I would like to visit uncle Sanhuang. Thanks for his support." Xiao Ming was clear about the mind of the king of Wei.
Cangzhou has been held. Next, he will engage in economic development, which is also necessary to make friends with the king of Wei.
Although we hate each other to death, we still have to make peace on the surface. After all, who wants to live with silver?
