Chapter 785 Coincidental Encounter Li Xin Although it is said that the royal army of the Ming Dynasty has completed the refitting work from cold weapons to hot weapons, the armor of the soldiers of the troops has been canceled from the battle sequence.However, like the broken saber did not take the news from the battle sequence, but this broken saber was made more luxurious, and the original handle was an ordinary tuomu hilt, but now it was replaced with copper, silver or jade, forming the ceremonial knife of the whole clan.The scabbard also became more and more luxurious, Quan Xu rewarded everyone of the Sichuan army into Beijing with a broken saber, of course, there are still differences, Qin Yiming and Ma Xianglin obtained a silver handle, with a scabbard inlaid with silver jewelry, ordinary soldiers were rewarded with a brass handle, and Qin Liangyu received a broken saber with a gold-inlaid jade handle.Of course, armor has also become the standard for generals, and the generals of the Royal Army will not wear armor to the battlefield, because everyone knows very well that the Royal Army of the Ming Dynasty only temporarily has a leading position in science and technology, even if it is a large-caliber arquebus, it can easily penetrate the armor and cause more serious damage to the human body.This kind of armor was also given by Quan Xu to Qin Liangyu and a set of generals who entered Beijing, and now, these Sichuan soldiers had a straight line of favor towards Quan Xu, the emperor.In the past, they could not even eat the extravagant meals of the Chinese New Year, but now they have become a commonplace, with meat at every meal, and eat fine grains and dry rice every day, and now not only give each of them a pair of land combat boots, but also give each of them a set of cotton jackets, cotton pants, cotton coats, and now knives and armor.There is no way, the Sichuan army is poor, and the decent iron armor is regarded as an heirloom by those Sichuan army generals, and it has been passed down from generation to generation.Now how expensive a pair of iron armor is, for the generals to know, although the price of steel has dropped sharply, although steel is not valuable, but the craftsmanship is valuable.Unless it is an official institution of the imperial court, private individuals are not allowed to make armor, craftsmen with craftsmanship, privately create a pair of armor, steel out of their own, there are not hundreds of thousands of taels of silver, who dares to risk losing their heads to create a pair of armor for you?
Moreover, for hundreds or thousands of taels of silver, it is not possible to find qualified craftsmen.Can they not be happy that someone has generously given them such fine armor for nothing!
The happy Sichuan army under the guidance of the guide, came to the capital to visit, Quanxu attaches great importance to business, through this scope of rectification, demolition of almost all shantytowns, so that the overall appearance of the whole city of Beijing has been greatly changed.At the same time, the planning of the Ministry of Construction, like the style of Liaodong, adopts a unified style, which is the height and width of the unified shop.Although the cold wind is howling, it can't stop people's enthusiasm for shopping, if you don't consider that there are no neon lights, wires, come to Beijing Dongzhimen Street, you will definitely think that this is an antique street in which city.Quanxu will continue to expand the scale of Beijing in the future, of course, he will not demolish the city wall, and it is ridiculous to demolish the city wall for the development of the city.The city wall of Xi'an has not been demolished, has it affected the urban development of Xi'an?
The answer is no, it does not affect, the ancient city gate can directly pass vehicles, the impact on the traffic flow, it can be said, not as great as the temporary checkpoints.The soldiers of the Sichuan Army are like Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden, and it is strange to see anything, of course, it is more shocking, such as the clothing street, there are thousands of shops, selling all kinds of shops.For example, the food street, from the street to the end of the street, is full of all kinds of food, the same is true of hotels, the air is filled with an attractive fragrance, the kind of sweet and greasy, with the smell of food air, in the future generations, will definitely be tireless, in this era of people, but feel that this is the taste of fireworks in the world.Qin Yiming's interest in inventing Qin Liangyu didn't seem to be high, as if he had a mind, so he asked cautiously: "Auntie, do you have something on your mind?"
”Qin Liangyu smiled bitterly: "Our majesty, it seems that he has little interest in Sichuan!"
”Qin Yiming shook his head: "No, today's saint is not a worldly handsome talent, and he will definitely be able to see the strategic position of Sichuan!"
”When we mention Sichuan, the first thing that comes to mind is the spicy road of Sichuan cuisine, the hot pot, the Sichuan tea, the Sichuan wine, the Sichuan girl, the country of abundance, the magnificent mountains and rivers, the abundant products, and the difficulty of the Shu Road, which is difficult to go to the blue sky.In fact, in today's peaceful era far from war, few people can think that Sichuan is still China's strategic position, and the ancient Bashu is the foundation of China's emperors.To compete for the world with Sichuan, the top is enough to be the king, the second is enough to dominate, and if you sit and defend it at risk, you will die.Henkel tried it in the past.Han Gao King Bashu, Du Nanzheng, out of Chencang, Dingsan Qin, fought between Xingyang and Chenggao, and the world was returned to Han.If you take the south of the Yangtze River, you must attack Sichuan, if Sichuan is in hand, the world is worry-free, during the Northern and Southern Dynasties, Qin Fujian attacked the Eastern Jin Dynasty with more than one million troops, known as throwing a whip to cut off the flow of the Yangtze River, which can be described as very arrogant.Of course, if you say the craziest words, you will be beaten the most.In the Battle of Weishui, Fu Jian was defeated by the 85,000 Beifu Army of the Eastern Jin Dynasty and lost his army and lost his country.The reason why Mongolia was able to conquer the Southern Song Dynasty was also because of the outflanking of Bashu and the status of Nanjing, once the Yangtze River went downstream, there was no possibility of defending it at all.The Jin unified the Three Kingdoms, in fact, it also attacked Shu Han first, and then destroyed Wu State.Therefore, Sichuan's economic status and mining resources are secondary, and the key is that this is the first move to unify the world.Qin Liangyu sighed and said, "If you say that today's saint doesn't understand military strategy, I'm afraid he doesn't dare to believe it, what does he mean by this?"
”In fact, it is not that Quan Xu wants to play tricks with Qin Liangyu, but mainly that Quan Xu hopes that Qin Liangyu can further understand the policies of the Quan court through what she has seen and heard.To put it simply, the Quan's court and the Zhu family's Ming Dynasty are not only in the suppression of scholars, Quan Xu does not necessarily have to kill all scholars.Willing to cooperate, Quan Xu also raised his hand to welcome.Do you really think that the teachers of the more than 17,000 elementary schools, more than 2,000 middle schools, and more than a dozen universities in the Quan Dynasty came from?
Of course, this is only a part of the scholars who are willing to accept the new policy of Quanxu, and for those who are stubborn, they will naturally not be polite, and for those who are willing to accept the new policy, it is naturally a convenient door.The same is true for Sichuan Province.The current Sichuan Province is larger than that of later generations, after all, the Sichuan Province of later generations is different, in addition to the jurisdiction of Sichuan and Chongqing, it also includes Zunyi, Guizhou Province, northeast Yunnan and northwest Guizhou.In addition, it also includes parts of eastern Tibet and Kangding.Compared with the jurisdiction, it is almost equivalent to more than two of Sichuan Province in later generations, and the key is that Sichuan is not only a topographical problem, but also a mixed ethnic group, and the problem is relatively more complex.Even, Quan Xu doesn't know whether Qin Liangyu represents the Shizhu Ma family, or the Sichuan army, or the Sichuan people as a whole, can she represent?
Quan Xu did not directly talk to Qin Liangyu about the issue of Sichuan, the main reason is that it is too vulgar for an emperor to talk about this matter with a minister, even if he wants to talk about it, it is not Quan Xu to talk directly.When you really negotiate, you need to actually come forward.Just before Qin Liangyu and Ma Xianglin came to a restaurant, they saw Sichuan Chongqing hot pot written on it.Ma Xianglin said with some doubts: "I didn't expect that there are still our Sichuan villagers in the capital?"
”Qin Yiming said: "You need to take care of it anyway!"
”Qin Liangyu couldn't smile bitterly, when they returned to the barracks, they would definitely be able to have a sumptuous dinner, of course, although Qin Liangyu didn't have much money, he still had money for a meal.Quan Xu rewarded each of the soldiers of the Sichuan army with five taels of silver, so that they could buy some supplies and bring them back when they went back in the future.Qin Liangyu is eight hundred taels, and Qin Yiming and Ma Xianglin are three hundred taels.The three of them took more than a dozen guards to the Chongqing hot pot restaurant in Sichuan, which was not an official meal at this time, and there were not many guests in the huge restaurant now.More than a dozen clerks bowed down to salute, and the junior second runner in the hall was also articulate and eloquent.Ma Xianglin asked for a private room and began to order a table of hot pot, of course, the Sichuan hot pot here is more similar to that of later generations, numb and spicy, however, these crops of chili peppers have not been planted on a large scale in Sichuan, so this meal made Ma Xianglin eat five flavors and mixed tastes.Qin Yiming couldn't help but ask the shopkeeper, "Shopkeeper, are you from Sichuan?"
”"Little Lao'er is not, Xiao Lao'er is from Shandong!""
Is your owner from Sichuan?""
Our owner is!"
Qin Yiming said: "There are a few Sichuan fellows here!"
”The shopkeeper said: "Little Lao'er understands that the owner has already instructed him, but whenever a fellow villager from Sichuan comes over, he will give a jar of Wuliangye with a price of ten taels of silver for free!"
”Hearing this, the unhappiness in Ma Xianglin's heart was swept away.Just when Qin Yiming and Ma Xianglin poured a glass of wine, first toasted Qin Liangyu, and then the two brothers were about to drink each other, a burst of laughter came."
Old General Qin, General Xiao Qin, General Ma, what a coincidence!"
Qin Yiming looked at the young man who was about thirty years old and asked, "Are you ......?"
”As the saying goes, the name of the person, the shadow of the tree, who Li Xin is, it is estimated that anyone in the world who has a little power will know.Some people say that it was a poisonous snake of the Li Xinquan dynasty.Some people also say that Li Xin is Quanxu's loyal dog minion.It is also said that Li Xin is a cunning fox.Some people also say that Li Xin is a bad wolf.In short, although Li Xin's reputation is great, it is mostly negative.Ma Xianglin subconsciously blurted out: "Are you Zhihu?"
