Which direction did everyone think Li Zicheng's main force was in?”
Before everyone could express their opinions, Qian Qianyi said first,"Huai An! It must be in Huai 'an!
Li Zicheng wanted to attack Yangzhou from Huai 'an, and then attack Ying Tian from Yangzhou!”
Zhu Youjian nodded and said," Qian Qing's words make sense. If we were to march, this plan would be the best. However, Qian Qing neglected one point.”
Qian Qianyi was dumbfounded and asked softly,""What did Your Majesty say?"
"That is, Li Zicheng's team is not an army, but a group of armed bandits.
When raiders marched, they would attack wherever they went. They were very mobile and could even be said to have no target to speak of.”
"If it's an army, they should naturally attack the city and county government first, then defend the city.
However, in the eyes of the raiders, survival and seizing the treasures were their top priority.
Now, Li Zicheng was panicking like a stray dog. How could he have the strength to attack Huai 'an? Moreover, he had split up his forces.
In my opinion, Chuzhou is their main force.”
Qian Qianyi frowned and lowered his head speechlessly, as if he was digesting Zhu Youjian's analysis.
Ding Qirui said,"Your Majesty's words are reasonable. However, we have no choice but to guard against these bandits attacking Huai 'an."”
"Ding Qing is right, we can't just leave these bandits alone. However, we don't have to worry about Jiangnan.
A few months ago, I ordered the world to help the king. However, Jiangnan did not send a single soldier.
He believed that they were now strong and strong. It would not be a problem for them to resist a few thousand troops.”
Hearing the Emperor say this, all the ministers understood that the Emperor held a grudge!
Now, the Emperor wanted to settle the score with the Jiangnan officials. He believed that their good days were coming to an end.
Ding Qirui continued," Then the bandits heading to Chuzhou must be led by the intruders. Your Majesty, what should we do?"”
Zhu Youjian turned to look at Qian Qianyi and asked,""Minister Qian, do you have any good ideas?"
Zhu Youjian had clearly said that he was going south. Now, he had to find a suitable time to propose a suitable candidate.
Zhu Youjian had already locked onto Qian Qianyi. He was the central hall of the Military and Political Affairs Office and the chief assistant of the cabinet. If he didn't say anything, who would?
No matter how stupid Qian Qianyi was, he understood what the Emperor wanted him to say. He also understood why the Emperor wanted him to sit in a position that was below one person and above tens of thousands of people.
It was worth it to take the blame for this capable emperor!
"Your Majesty, please use the thoughts of the common people to personally lead the army!”
Zhu Youjian was overjoyed when he heard Qian Qianyi say that. He had been waiting for two months to hear this!
"Your Majesty, please use the thoughts of the common people to personally lead the army!”
"Your Majesty, please use the thoughts of the common people to personally lead the army!”
Fan Jingwen and Ding Qirui also followed suit.
Since he was going to say something cheap, and someone had already taken the blame, what was there to be afraid of?
"Good! Qian Aiqing was really the Kou Zhun of the world! Chuzhou was the state of Chang in the past. After I leave, I will definitely return peace to the world.”
Qian Qianyi complained bitterly in his heart. He had to bear the infamy of moving the capital for the emperor.
The emperor would go to Chuzhou? What kind of joke was this? They wouldn't even know where Li Zicheng went.
The Emperor would definitely be stationed in the Ying Tian Prefecture across the river. In the name of the emperor's personal expedition, he moved the capital.
High! It was really high!
Zhu Youjian was secretly pleased when he saw the big-nosed Tang Ruowang stand up and bow lightly.
"Your Majesty, after two months of testing, the paper-shell gun you mentioned has been successfully tested. It can be used by Your Majesty to suppress the bandits in the south.”
"Oh? So fast!" When Zhu Youjian heard this news, he stood up as well. His face was filled with pleasant surprise.
"Yes, with Your Majesty's genius guidance and the help of the three Bi brothers, we've already made samples of the paper-shell bullets and the new flintlock.”
"Good! Haha, Old Tang, you're too amazing! Let's go and take a look now. Lead the way.”
After saying that, Zhu Youjian lifted his leg and was about to leave.
"Your Majesty, the flintlock is outside the Meridian Gate," said Tang Ruowang hurriedly.
I knew that Your Majesty would want to see this item as soon as possible, so I brought it here.”
"Old Tang understands me!" Zhu Youjian laughed. Alright, this Forbidden City is not suitable for fire.
Get someone to bring the gun to Beihai City. I want to play with it myself, haha!”
Tang Ruowang smiled and bowed in return. He walked out of the Military and Political Affairs Office and made arrangements.
Zhu Youjian looked at Tang Ruowang's back with anticipation.
However, when he turned around, he realized that Qian Qianyi, Fan Jingwen, and the others did not look very good. They seemed to be a little anxious.
However, Zhu Youjian did not want to pay attention to them now. He did not want them to ruin his good mood.
An hour later, Zhu Youjian brought the people from the Military and Political Affairs Office, including Lu Xuan and Guan Shou, to Tuan City.
In Tuan City, jade willows surrounded the Jade Pool of the North Sea. The water surface was sparkling and the lotus roots were green.
However, such a vibrant and beautiful early summer scenery also revealed a trace of killing intent.
Hundreds of Embroidered Uniform Guards and a thousand Royal Guards protected Zhu Youjian tightly.
In a corner of the regiment city, Tang Ruowang and a few people who looked like assistants surrounded a stone table. They fiddled with a gun and seemed to be discussing something.
Because of their status, those assistants were not qualified to see him.
However, Zhu Youjian could tell from afar that they were very nervous. One of their shoulders kept trembling.
"Old Tang, are you done?"
Zhu Youjian asked. His tone was filled with impatience.
"Your Majesty, to ensure your safety, please stand behind a few guards to prevent the gun from going off.”
Tang Ruowang said that it was for Zhu Youjian's safety. In fact, he knew that if something really happened and the Emperor was injured, even if he had a hundred heads, it would not be enough.
Zhu Youjian smiled and said,"It's okay, Old Tang. I'll test the gun myself."?
If it explodes or misfires, it's my fault. Even if it's injured, it has nothing to do with you.”
After hearing the Emperor's words, everyone, including Tang Ruowang, felt relieved, and their expressions looked much better.
Zhu Youjian strode forward to the stone table and took the gun from Tang Ruowang's hand.
The body of the gun was about 1.4 to 1.5 meters long. It was straight, with a crosshair in front and a door at the back.
Wooden stock, handle, trigger, all the details were already similar to the single-shot breech rifle in Zhu Youjian's memory from his previous life.
What surprised him was that the barrel was silver-white, and the body was made of jujube wood, making the gun look beautiful and demonic.
