Alien Arms Empire

Chapter 481 481 He wants to apologize
The Great China Empire, the Imperial City, and the Great Court Conference.

The imperial emperor Zhao Kai sat on his throne, overlooking the ministers below, with neither sad nor happy expression, and his thoughts could not be seen.

As an emperor, he would not express his position easily at such a big court meeting. This is a set of imperial means that he thinks is effective.

But an emperor is a human being after all, Zhao Kai thinks that he can't show his emotions, but in fact, many ministers have already figured out his routines, and they are all taking advantage of some of the emperor's habits.

This is a political game of wits and courage. The ministers are trying to figure out the emperor's mind, and the emperor is also calculating all the ministers. It is not easy to judge who will win and who will lose.It's possible they both won, and it's also possible...they both lost.

Regarding the follow-up development of Zheng in the Tang Dynasty, how the Dahua Empire should deal with it is the key issue at this great court meeting. In fact, this matter has been discussed twice, and today is the third time.

Everyone already knew what His Majesty meant. From Zhao Kai's frequent interviews with Shen Chuan of the Ministry of War and General Feng Kezhi, one could guess His Majesty's plan.

This is not a secret, because the State of Zheng is a vassal state of the Dahua Empire. If the state of Zheng is destroyed, the Dahua Empire will not care about the tragic death of Zheng Tong’s family. How will they rule the surrounding vassal states in the future?

It is a pity that the war between the Zheng State and the Phantom State stimulated the military of the Great China Empire. General Feng Kezhi advocated changing weapons, and Minister of War Shen Chuan supported learning new tactics and training new troops.

After this set of reforms, the originally bulky and decadent army of the Great China Empire became even more chaotic, and it was almost certain that it would be unable to fight anymore.

Of course, Zhao Kai trusts the abilities of Feng Kezhi and Shen Chuan. It can be said that these two people are supporters and confidantes of Zhao Kai's ascension to the throne, and these two people are also very capable of knowing the type of arms that advance and retreat. .

The main purpose of their tossing troops is to help Zhao Kai suppress local forces and restore the combat effectiveness of the troops.

The local small-scale chaos caused is actually the pain of military reforms to eliminate the rubbish on the hills. Naturally, Zhao Kai supports it.

Don't look at the current decline of the Dahua army's combat power with the reform, but after the reform is completed, the Dahua Empire's army will be completely different.

First of all, in terms of quantity, this reform aims to train more than 40 direct-line troops for Zhao Kai, who can command and command, and are well-equipped and powerful.

These troops are equipped with the latest bolt-action rifles, have a sufficient number of cannons, and are even equipped with machine guns and cars. They are familiar with modern tactics, which is completely incomparable to the backward troops of the Dahua Empire.

Following the example of the Datang Group, Cyric is also studying the impact of weapons on tactics. New tactics such as trenches have also been compiled and trained by Cyric into textbooks, which are sold with guns.

After being exposed to these new tactics, both Shangshu Shen Chuan and General Feng Kezhi clearly realized that the war has quietly changed, and the old tactics no longer work!
At the same time, the Ministry of War is also ambitious. While realizing the modernization of the army, it will build a complete arms supply system and build a sufficient number of modern arms industries.

The money to buy hundreds of thousands of Cyric 1 rifles is not just buying arms, but also the ability to manufacture arms.

Cyric promised in the contract that in the next year, 10 fixed-scale arms production factories will be built in the Dahua Empire.

At the same time, Cyric also showed the delegation of officers of the Great China Empire their secret new chariot, as well as heavy weapons and equipment such as armored vehicles.

Feng Kezhi's confidants immediately made a decision, and spent money to purchase new equipment for tactical research, and at the same time spent money to start building a new tank factory in Dahua.

It is precisely because of this that so much money was spent on the procurement of the army this time, which directly led to the inability of the Dahua Empire to respond when Zheng Guo was destroyed.

"Your Majesty, the national strength is weak, so rashly mobilizing troops at this time...is not a good choice." An official stepped forward and bowed to put forward his opinion.

This kind of small official with sesame and mung beans is often a temptation before the attack.It was almost just a pawn crossing the river, and it was used by various big shots to test the reaction of political opponents and to see the attitude of His Majesty the Emperor.

It's okay, if you lose, you lose, don't feel bad...

Prime Minister Chu Muzhou squinted his eyes, as if he had fallen asleep. He didn't even have to worry about who the pawn was responsible for, because he already knew that the overall situation was settled, and this time the grand court meeting was far from what it seemed. So surging.

The Ministry of War's reluctance to send troops is actually very obvious. His Majesty's attitude has been continuously polished and has long since become ambiguous.

Since the main military department is unwilling to move, it has already been determined that this battle will not be fought.It was nothing more than that His Majesty the Emperor began to change his thinking, and began to use the banner of sending troops to ponder the remaining money in the treasury.

In his opinion as a prime minister, as long as the battle cannot be fought, it is actually worthwhile and necessary for the Ministry of War to spend some money, especially the two capable officials Feng Kezhi and Shen Chuan, to revive the military prestige. of.

So he squinted his eyes and looked drowsy, and he didn't want to get involved in this huge performance at all.

"Your Majesty, Master Xu's words are true, and I seconded the proposal!" Another official came out, bowed and said loudly to Zhao Kai who was sitting on the high seat directly in front of him.

Unlike the previous few times, this time at the Great Court Meeting, the so-called "battle faction" of the military department hadn't started to stir up trouble, and the civil service system over there began to send people out to sing the opposite.

It seems that as the pain of Zheng Guo's reputation has gradually faded, it is now a situation where no one is willing to go to war.

But for Zhao Kai, he doesn't need to rush to express his position now, because the ministers and the prime minister have not stood up to speak out. What is he, the emperor, in a hurry?
Therefore, the emperor continued to sit on the throne and pretend to be stupid, while the officials of the various ministries below still stood in a daze in their positions, allowing some small characters to show themselves there.

According to the efficiency of the meeting of the Datang Group, such an important grand meeting is simply a lonely one.

Tang Mo believed from the beginning to the end that this kind of meeting that brings together the heads of all departments is an overall planning meeting that needs to mobilize the capabilities of all departments. There is no need to discuss anything, just assign tasks and assign roles.

As for the kind of wrangling meeting where everyone has opinions and difficulties, the person in charge should go back to his own department and submit a report after the meeting, and then conduct a revised audit.

There is no need for performances or nonsense, everyone tells the truth, what kind of acting personality is playing...Everyone pretends to be unpredictable, for whom to see...

So he dislikes such a meeting process, and often reminds his subordinates that they don't need to put on a show in front of him, they just need to do things efficiently.

In addition, Datang Group was Tang Mo's voice, and everyone trusted Tang Mo's decision-making, so the meeting efficiency was naturally extremely high.

Many things don't need to be discussed at all, they only need Tang Mo's order, and the others will follow suit.And in most cases, in the process of implementation, there will be no discount.

Finally, the front-line combat power was almost exhausted, and the number of pawns who expressed their views had accumulated enough. The momentum had grown, and the main players began to leave.

The role of General Feng Kezhi is naturally still the main combat faction, and he still plays the image of the unshakable hawk.

But anyone with a discerning eye knew that he was actually the one he didn't want to fight at all, and he just wanted to help the emperor show a tough attitude.

At this time, if everyone shuts their mouths and starts to support the start of the war, the scene will be interesting. The expression of the emperor Zhao Kai sitting on the throne should be very exciting at that time.

But everyone knows that you can't play like this, you can't do this.So, the boss of the Ministry of Industry, Shangshu Chen Jing stepped out of the shift, lowered his head and mentioned Feng Kezhi's "relief" and said: "Your Majesty! I think it is not appropriate to start a war at this time!"

Finally, someone who can appear on the stage has come, and the meeting has officially begun!The drowsy Prime Minister Chu Muzhou opened his eyes, and Zhao Kai, who was sitting on the throne, finally became interested.

After several more rounds of confrontation, another Shangshu ended.Wang Yucai, Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, bowed down and stepped out, expressing his position: "What Mr. Chen, Minister of the Ministry of Industry said is absolutely true! Your minister seconded the proposal!"

Zhao Kai breathed a sigh of relief, the effect he wanted was achieved, and Wang Yucai, the head of the household department, was determined not to support the war, so the battle would never be fought.

So he started his own performance, not only to express his determination to help Zheng Guo restore the country, but also to scold Tang for usurping power and cutting power.

Many ministers also gritted their teeth, who doesn't want to leave a good impression of "I am one of my own" in front of the emperor.

Immediately afterwards, Zhou Qiang, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, stood up and stated the reasons why it is not appropriate to go to war at this time. What he said was soul-stirring.

His speech also touched the hearts of the Ministry of War and Zhao Kai, and everyone began to perform the drama of the monarch and his ministers together again.

On the one hand, the old ministers were crying, and the capable ministers were crying, and on the other hand, the emperor was choking up and sighing... The scene was short of a host, two award presenters, and a few statuettes... If this was placed in a certain theater, the If one of the masters counts as one, they are all well-organized-no doubt!
The ministers of several other ministries also participated in the battle, and the scene was boiling for a while. In the end, the emperor still considered the overall situation and gave up his obsession with revenge.

"Since this is the case, let's issue an order to reprimand the Lord of the Tang Kingdom, order him to fast and reflect on his mistakes, and send envoys to Beijing to make amends." Finally, in desperation, Dahua Film King, Yanzong Zhao Kai opened his mouth to give this matter sex.

As for whether Tang Mo would eat vegetarian food for a few days for the perishing state of Zheng, and whether he would send envoys to the Dahua Empire to make amends and apologize...that's another matter.

"Your Majesty is wise!" Hearing that the matter had finally been finalized, Chu Muzhou, the prime minister who hadn't finished speaking, immediately came out and bowed his head in praise.

The old fox finally moved... Yanzong Zhao Kai complained in his heart, and then began to enjoy the compliments that followed like a tsunami.

"Your Majesty is wise!" Sure enough, many ministers followed up and began to compliment Zhao Kai on the throne.

No matter if it was sincere or not, no matter how it was obtained, this voice...for Zhao Kai, it is really pleasant to hear.

He squinted his eyes intoxicated, enjoying the happiness brought by this kind of power that others could not enjoy at all.He thought of the wind blowing in the ears of several concubines, and the "sightings" of the servant, and he felt more and more wise.

Originally, being able to weigh the pros and cons, stabilize all aspects, and get all departments to agree on one thing, is this a sense of accomplishment in itself, okay?
More voices began to join in the praise, and many ministers began to show off their acting skills and add new content: "Long live Your Majesty! If you meet the Ming Lord, you will die without regret!"

Then, Feng Kezhi and Shen Chuan, the confidantes of the Ministry of War, sincerely kowtowed and shouted: "Your Majesty is holy! I can't wait for what happens!"

The official Zhou Qiang is very proud. The money bag behind him has received investment from the Datang Group, which can provide him with enough political donations in a short period of time to help him win over ministers from the neutral faction more easily.

The old man Chen Jing from the Ministry of Industry is also very happy. With the support of Datang Group, it seems that the railway that he has always dreamed of will have hope. The construction of other factories is all about political achievements.It won't be long before the Ministry of Industry's voice in the Sixth Ministry will become even greater!
Shen Chuan of the Ministry of War breathed a sigh of relief. The military reform led by him can now continue for a longer period of time. War will not break out and interference will not come. He will be able to greatly increase the combat effectiveness of the existing army next year!

People in other departments are also very satisfied with this result-they just don't want to fight.Once this war breaks out, there will be chaos, how can you be greedy?How to mix?Is it comfortable to lie flat and make money in a war?
The concubines in the harem were very satisfied, and the work was done, and the jewelry they received was not so hot.

The servants were also very excited, because they just said a few ambiguous words seemingly unintentionally, and they could get a lot of money-this deal is so good that it is indescribable!
It seems that a world where only the dead ghost Zheng Tong is injured... is complete.

……

Tang Mo, who didn't know that he was going to be a vegetarian and apologized to the dead, was sitting in his office reading the report sent by Loew.

The chief of staff, Loew, who is now justified, reported: "The test results of the Airborne Experimental Company have come out."

As he spoke, he handed the list to Tang Mo: "Those who have no footprints on their buttocks and have no fractures on the ground will be trained as company commanders. Those who have footprints on their buttocks but no fractures, and those who have fractures but no footprints on their buttocks, will be trained according to the company commander's rules. Platoon leader training...the rest will be promoted to squad leader as long as they dare to board the plane again after being discharged from the hospital..."

Tang Mo took the report and sighed with wry smile: "...There is no way, there is a shortage of talents everywhere, let's make do with it."

"..." Loew was silent for a few seconds, and said with emotion: "Indeed... it can only be used to make do with it..."

Putting this kind of soldiers outside, they are all the kings of soldiers. Here, we can barely make a makeshift comment... Lu Fu shook his head for being indelible: Juan, it is too Rolled up.
-
Stomach is not good this time... It's been three days, and I've lost 5 catties... Long Ling is too miserable, I didn't dare to turn on the air conditioner for two days on a hot day...
