"Firearms!"

The king of Wei gently spat out these two words.

Thinking of this, he felt a little gloomy. He said, "I asked the craftsmen to imitate the fire rope gun, but so far there has been no progress. It's really a headache."

Mi Wenyi said: "don't worry, your highness. Although the fire gun and artillery are powerful, they are by no means invincible. Otherwise, why didn't Xiao Ming guard the mountain customs? It can be seen that even if he had firearms, Xiao Ming was still afraid of the barbarian cavalry. Besides, there were few people in Qi but many people in Wei. Qi was poor but Wei was rich. As long as he could hold Pengzhou, the king of Qi's army would have to retreat within a few months. "

Xiao Qi frowned. What Mi Wenyi said seems reasonable, but the battle of Cangzhou and Jizhou proved the fierce of the Qingzhou army. Although there are many people in Wei, and they are very rich, the people have been living in a stable life, and the army of Wei has not experienced a big war in seven or eight years. If the two sides fight, the outcome is unknown.

After a moment's hesitation, he said: "Uncle Huang, my nephew thinks that we should continue to send envoys and Dutch, Japanese, and even go south to find the way to forge guns and muskets. Now that other vassal kings have seen the benefits of firearms, they all know the power of firearms. This matter must not be taken lightly."

"What Mi Changshi and his nephew said is reasonable. In this case, MI Changshi is responsible for the defense of Pengzhou, and his nephew is responsible for the forging of firearms. How about that?"

Mi Wenyi and Xiao Qi look at each other and say, "yes, your highness."

The king of Wei nodded with satisfaction. He was thinking of going to the city with them. Suddenly, a bodyguard rushed to the main hall.

"Your Highness, the eye of Chu is reported. It is said that Chu's army has taken Quanzhou's Royal homeland." Said the guard.

"Quanzhou!" the king of Wei was surprised. "How long did it take for the king of Wei to double his vassal power? If it goes on like this, will the southern rivers and mountains be occupied by the king of Chu?"

"It's not surprising that the king of Chu has been working hard to run the south these years. He has long bribed officials from many counties around him. Now that the world is falling apart, these officials immediately defected to the king of Chu." Xiao Qi analyzed it.

The king of Wei was sour. "Hum, the king of Chu is really tricky and occupies a good place. It's a pity that the king of Yan and the king of Qi are not good friends around him."

It has to be said that today's king of Chu is the most favorable time, place and people. Although they don't like the king of Chu, they have to admit it.

Mi Wenyi sighed and said, "the most important thing is that the king of Chu's Navy crossed the river. It's a natural moat. No one can help him."

The king of Wei snorted and said, "it's very disappointing. If you don't mention it, the king of Chu is rich, and I don't want him to be poor. It's not sure who is in the world."

Mi Wenyi nodded. He suddenly thought of something and said, "Your Highness, the officer thinks of something. Every time the king of Qi's warships go south to supply supplies, they have to stop at Tongzhou. This means that we have a handle on the king of Qi. After all, if there is no TongZhou, it will be difficult for them to go south."

When the king of Wei's eyes brightened, he gently stroked his beard and said with pride: "Mi Changshi really reminds me. Hum, in that case, we can't say we have to make an article with Tongzhou. If Xiao Ming dares to advise Pengzhou, it's no wonder that the king forbids his warships to dock for supplies."

"More than that, your highness, we can't say that we can still coerce the king of Qi to send us some artillery and muskets." Mi Wenyi said.

The more the king of Wei thought about it, the more he felt that MI Wenyi's words were reasonable. He said, "well, in that case, I will send someone to Qingzhou to talk about it."

After that, the king of Wei laughed.

....

In Qingzhou, after Xiao Ming left Qingzhou camp, he went directly to the government. As soon as his front foot arrived, Li San followed him.

"Is there any important information?" Li Sanxing is in a hurry. Xiao Ming can't help asking.

Now Xiao Ming has a black eye on things outside Qingzhou. He can only rely on Li San and Wang Xuan to collect information and analyze the current situation.

Li San laughed and said happily, "Your Highness, Yang Zhen honestly gave the eyeliner and the secret code of Lijing's door to the public. He was the one who found many liking men in Qingzhou."

"So soon, it seems that Yang Zhen is just a man who is greedy for life and afraid of death." Xiao Ming disdains Tao.

"Your Highness, it's true. The lower officer said the ten torture tools. Before the tools were put on, he was scared to pee. Hehe." Li San seems very proud.

"Say the point." Xiao Ming glared at him, but the glib of the boy still didn't change.

Li San sneered and said, "these people in lijingmen have been arrested by my highness. Knowing that his Highness has the imperial edict in his hand, these people are willing to listen to my highness's instructions under the persuasion of Yang Zhen. Moreover, my highness has sent people to recruit other people in lijingmen."

After a pause, Li San continued: "Your Highness, the Lijing gate is really all over the state of Dayu. Yang Zhen explained that every vassal has the detailed works of Lijing gate. In this way, we can know the situation of other vassal states at any time.""Besides, Yang Zhen didn't provide any valuable information?" Xiao Ming is most concerned about this.

Li San said: "yes, Yang Zhen said that the barbarians agreed to send troops on the condition that they would get half of the spoils of war. Moreover, King Liang was also loyal to the barbarians in exchange for their support."

"King liang? Well, it's another one who takes a thief as a father. " Xiao Ming said angrily, he now understands why the Ming Dynasty will die, domestic and foreign troubles, and there are so many traitors leading the way. Can it survive?

However, thinking of the current situation, he felt that the situation was even more difficult.

"Yang Zhen also said that the barbarians promised to ignore the contradictions between them. If there is a conflict between the king of Zhao and the king of Liang, the barbarians' troops will not participate in it. However, if they use troops against his highness, the barbarians promised to give their full support."

Xiao Ming frowned. Originally, he wanted to play the proxy war, but he didn't expect the barbarians to play in advance. He knew very well what the barbarians thought. Undoubtedly, he wanted to use the king of Zhao and the king of Liang to consume his troops, and he was waiting for the opportunity behind them.

"However, your highness, the king of Zhao seems to be more interested in the king of Shu, while the king of Liang complained about the occupation of Chang'an by the king of Zhao." Li San said again.

"It seems that King Zhao is not stupid. Shu is known as the land of abundance, which is the important land for grain production in the state of Dayu. If he takes Shu, he will not worry about grain. In those days, King Ying Zheng of Qin also took Guanzhong first, then Bashu, and then unified the six countries. It seems that King Zhao has the potential to learn from the first emperor."

Li San said, "no, the king of Zhao has always called himself the little emperor of Qin."

With a sneer, Xiao Ming put aside the topic and asked, "if the king of Zhao has this idea, it will win time for him to invade Wei, and tell me about Pengzhou."
