Chapter 1166 1167 [Soaring up to 90,000 miles]

Everyone turned around and saw the burly Qinzhou Navy Admiral Chen Huacheng with a pair of bull's-eyes staring at him, stern and powerful.

Su Wu was not intimidated by the other party yet, so he calmly and somewhat distantly said: "What do you mean by the admiral's words?"

Everyone knows that the two naval forces in Daliang are in completely different situations.

The Dingzhou Navy was responsible for fighting against the powerful navy of the Southern Zhou Dynasty. It was the focus of military support from the beginning. Later, when Gu Liang served as the commander-in-chief of the Southern Army, he even pooled the efforts of the five southern states to build warships and train sailors.

.Therefore, in the Battle of Jiangling last year, Li Yuantong, the admiral of the Dingzhou Navy, commanded his subordinates to severely damage the Nanwufeng Navy.

In contrast, the Qinzhou Navy is responsible for protecting the coastline east of Daliang. It is nominally to guard against possible enemies in the vast ocean. However, this situation has never occurred in the past hundred years, so the only task is to

Deal with pirates and other thieves.

Until the third year of Kaiping, the life of the Qinzhou Navy was very difficult. The warships were dilapidated and in disrepair. Even the ship of the dignified admiral looked miserable. Not to mention that the military pay was only 40% all year round. Many of them were

The soldiers had to hunt seafood to support their families.

It is not that Chen Huacheng has never come to Xifu to make trouble, but when Wang Pingzhang was in power, he did not know how many times he was rejected, but he never gained anything.

This man can be regarded as a real man, and he has not lost his heroic spirit even after many years of hardship. At this moment, facing Su Wu's words that deliberately pointed out his official position, he said in a deep voice: "The two military planes are not here, so the military affairs of the West Palace will naturally be decided by the Duke of the State.

!Kyoto is thousands of miles away from the border

If a war breaks out, is it too late to wait for the news to come back before responding? As for the enemy spies you mentioned, doesn't this just mean that Xiwu and Southern Zhou are willing to fight? Otherwise, why would they let those dead soldiers die in vain for their meticulous work?

"

Su Wu looked at the other party's excited look and thought, if the assassination on Gushui Street hadn't happened, how could those detailed tricks come out one after another?

Wait, something seems not quite right...

Before Su Wu could continue thinking, Chen Huacheng continued: "I have no doubts about the military judgment of General Guo Gong. Since he said there will be war at the border, there will definitely be! There are two people in charge of the specific military affairs at the border.

Coordination and command of military aircraft, what we have to do in the rear is to be fully prepared, but I don’t know why Mr. Su is looking forward and backward. Is it not what you want to prepare for war? I am a little confused, Mr. Su, whose side are you on?

"

Although this man was rough and arrogant, his words were quite sharp.

Su Wu's face turned red and he shouted coldly: "Absurd!"

A person next to him took over the conversation: "Mr. Chen, this is the important place of the Xifu Festival Hall, not your navy hall. How can you make such casual accusations?"

Chen Huacheng looked at Liu Gongchuo, the Commander-in-Chief of the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion. Although he was not interested in such a noble and civil servant, he knew the importance and did not blindly mess around.

Chen Kuan, Minister of War, secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

He was not surprised that Chen Huacheng would support Pei Yue so clearly. When Gu Liang joined the Xifu as a military officer, the Qinzhou Navy's treatment had been greatly improved. Not only did they have brand-new warships, but also the salaries of the officers and soldiers could be improved.

Distribute in time

Another point is more important. After Pei Yue shifted the focus of his industry out of Kyoto, the business exchanges between the north and the south became more and more prosperous. Therefore, the East China Sea shipping has developed greatly in the past two years, and the Qinzhou Navy has also grown accordingly.

Not only did they provide maritime escort services, they even purchased a number of cargo ships and merchant ships on their own after petitioning the court for permission.

The navy's warships and the number of officers and soldiers have been monitored by Taishitai Pavilion, and Chen Huacheng has not taken any extraordinary actions. Since it can bring huge benefits to the court, no one objects to this matter.

Chen Kuan was not fully aware of the twists and turns here, but he roughly knew that the growth of the Qinzhou Navy was closely related to Pei Yue. He had always been very wary of Pei Yue, so he originally wanted to speak out to support Su Wu, but when he met Liu Gongchuo

When he opened his mouth, he pressed his thoughts.

As the former Minister of War, Liu Gongchuo is now in charge of the Commander-in-Chief of the Fifth Army, and his right to speak on military affairs is actually second only to Pei Yue.

He looked around the crowd, his eyes finally resting on Pei Yue, and he said unhurriedly: "Although I do not agree with Mr. Chen's impulsive accusation against the Marquis of Nan'an, I agree with one of his views. Regarding military judgment,

The Duke of Guo has always had far-reaching strategies from a high position. The war on the two fronts in the western border and the battle of Jiangling in the south were enough to prove the Duke of Guo's vision. Therefore, I support the views of the Duke of Guo."

Chen Kuan was stunned, and Su Wu frowned in confusion.

Chen Huacheng grinned silently.

Nanying coach Pudinghou Chen Huan, who was always silent, said concisely and concisely: "Second the proposal."

The important ministers from various ministries nodded and said: "I second the proposal."

Su Wu looked troubled and turned to look at Pei Cheng, the uncle of Dingyuan who was sitting at the bottom. He knew that Pei Yue and the Pei family didn't get along, and Pei Cheng was a confidant promoted by Xiao Jin. At this time, he couldn't just watch Pei Yue gain more power.

Dominate.

As if sensing Su Wu's gaze, Pei Cheng said slowly: "Before the right army plane left the capital, I ordered the last general to command the garrison division. However, the last general's knowledge is not as good as that of Duke Wei. Therefore, on such important matters related to the safety of the country and the dynasty,

The general will abide by all decisions of Xifu."

The overall situation has been decided.

In fact, after His Majesty the Emperor expressed his support for Pei Yue, Su Wu knew that it would be difficult for him to stop him. After all, he was neither Xiao Jin nor Gu Liang. How could he interfere with the ownership of power in the Xifu if he was just the head coach of the Beijing camp? I thought Pei Yue would be concerned.

I saw the reaction of the people below, but I didn’t expect that except him, most people in this hall would have such an attitude.

"What Marquis Nan'an said is not unreasonable."

Pei Yue broke the silence in the hall, his tone still gentle, and then said: "However, since we shoulder the responsibility of running the army, it is the right way to prepare for a rainy day. Try to be more thoughtful and properly prepared, so that we can be worthy of your majesty's trust.

.The detailed process and decisions of today’s military meeting will be written down and reported to Your Majesty, so it will naturally be up to Your Majesty to make the decision.”

Su Wu and Chen Kuan smiled slightly reluctantly.

Although Liu Gongchuo's attitude surprised them, Pei Yue acted openly and above all, especially after winning the support of most of the attendees today, his words seemed even more blameless.

Pei Yue and Liu Gongchuo looked at each other, then looked away calmly, and said calmly: "The Western Army Dingxi Camp, some generals need to be adjusted. This is the list that Zuo Junji and I discussed before leaving Beijing. Everyone

We can discuss it."

"There are nearly one-third of the new recruits in the Western Army's Longgong Camp, so I suggest that the Lingzhou Left Guard and the Yangqu Guard of the Longgong Camp be swapped."

"Gu Cang, the commander of the Guiyang Guard of the Changping Camp of the Southern Army, is brave and good at fighting. He can lead his subordinates to the Yaoshan Camp to strengthen the Yaozhou coastal defense line."

"The ordnance of each army has always been the responsibility of the Fifth Army Governor's Office. Considering the difficulty of transportation over long distances, the scale of the arsenals in Xingyang City in Lingzhou and Chengjing City in Qinzhou has been temporarily expanded to prepare for emergencies."

"The defense lines of the Western Army and the Southern Army need to be slightly adjusted. At the same time, a few generals are not useful enough to cope with future wars. This should be considered carefully."

"The Ministry of War will contact the Ministry of Household Affairs to increase the reserves of granaries in various places as soon as possible. Chen Shangshu can communicate more with Lu Shangshu. In addition, I will ask your Majesty to ask the Nongsang Supervisor to cooperate with you."

"The establishment of the Xuanhua camp was cancelled, and the best among them were selected and transferred to the western border. Each of the three northern states built a military guard, and the Fifth Army Governor's Office recruited new soldiers locally."

"The Qinzhou Navy has recruited a fleet of sailors from the fishermen on the coast, and the warships are already being built."

"The battalions of the Beijing Army must not slack off and must be prepared to support the border troops at any time."

Pei Yue's voice echoed in the majestic festival hall. Everyone listened with solemn expressions, or put forward their own opinions after thinking. The atmosphere was solemn but orderly.

…

From sunrise to sunset, this military discussion still did not end. Even throughout mid-to-late November, all officials in the Xifu were extremely busy, and then expanded to the entire court.

Military orders were issued from Kyoto one after another and flew to various places.

As time enters early December, the atmosphere in the city becomes lively and festive.

Because the emperor's wedding is coming soon.

Pei Yue was extremely busy during this period, and the beauty in the house had to wait until late at night almost every night to see him.

I finally returned home before sunset that day. As soon as I walked into Qingya Xiaozhu, I saw Ye Qi standing on the porch, looking at him with a smile.

The smile was bright and bright, and seemed to have a different kind of softness.
