Fang Jun was not annoyed at all by He Ruoming's rebuke. Instead, he smiled and said: "... He Ruojian doesn't need to worry, just listen to what I have to say... Since the Ordnance Inspector is responsible for manufacturing weapons and armor for the army,
They also have to undertake the repairs of damaged ordnance to ensure the combat effectiveness of the army. If it is done in normal times, it will be no problem. It will just take a little more time. The army does not rush to change its equipment for a day or two, and the ordnance maintenance can be arranged calmly... But
Once the Eastern Expedition begins, how can there be so much time for the Ordnance Supervisor to calmly arrange and delay appropriately? I know the capabilities of the Ordnance Supervisor clearly. I can say with certainty that He Ruojian doesn't like to hear the words. The Ordnance Supervisor does not want to hear anything.
It may ensure the smooth progress of the Eastern Expedition!"
He Ruoming opened his mouth, wanting to refute, but was speechless.
Only then did he remember that Fang Jun had served as a young supervisor in the Ordnance Supervisor before. Although the time was short, he could gain a good understanding of the Ordnance Supervisor.
Until now, a large part of the pig iron purchased by the Ordnance Supervision still comes from the Fang family's iron factory...
To refute Fang Jun now is tantamount to messing around.
He Ruoming is a gentleman. He will neither open his eyes and tell lies, nor bother to argue about unnecessary things. Moreover, if he insists that the weapons supervisor has no pressure and does not need to be shared by other yamen, what if Fang Jun insists and forces himself to make a decision?
Military order...
That's the fatal thing!
Therefore, He Ruoming just pondered for a moment and then said: "The Ordnance Supervisor is indeed under pressure, but the Ordnance Supervisor is united and will go all out."
He said something lively, anyway, we will definitely try our best. As for whether we will get the desired results after working hard... Who knows?
Never being able to speak your mind fully is the first way to survive in officialdom.
He Ruoming said: "As the Fang Shilang said, the weapons supervisor has a heavy task and is full of trivial matters, so you'd better not beat around the bush. If you have any ideas, you can speak frankly. If you are sensible and reasonable, I will be fine. But there is one thing I would like to ask the Fang Shilang.
Remember, the weapons inspector’s manufacturing power must not be tampered with!"
The words were very firm.
Fang Jun narrowed his eyes, without any embarrassment on his face, and said with a chuckle: "He Ruojian is afraid that he has not been with me for a long time and does not know my temperament. Although the outside world has a lot of criticism of me, there is one thing that no one knows about me.
You can slander it, that is, if I say one thing is one thing, and if I say I don’t want to make it, then I definitely won’t!”
He Ruoming disagreed and said: "Then what does your foundry bureau do?"
Fang Jun said carefully: "As we all know, the cost of armor is extremely high, and it is extremely worn and damaged due to daily practice and use in battle. However, because of its super protective capabilities, it cannot be discarded. Therefore, heavy infantry in every army
Both armor and heavy cavalry are the main force in the main force, but their numbers are often extremely limited. If there are damaged or destroyed armors in the army, they must be sent back to the military headquarters in full. After registering and registering, special personnel will be sent to the Ordnance Supervision for repairs.
Naturally, what can be repaired should be repaired, and what cannot be repaired should be thrown away... The armor is returned from the army to the Ministry of War, and then sent by the Ministry of War to the Ordnance Supervision. After repair, it is sent back to the Ministry of War by the Ordnance Supervisor, and finally from the Ministry of War.
The Ministry of War dispatches them to various armies... During this period, not only the numbers need to be strictly reviewed, but the procedures are extremely cumbersome, and all the counting work is done by officials, so there are inevitably some omissions, and a lot of nonsense has been added...
…”
This time, He Ruoming didn't say any offensive words, but nodded slowly, deeply convinced.
Although he has only been in charge of the Ordnance Supervision for a short period of time, it just so happens that all armies in the world are reorganizing and reorganizing, and the number of manufacturing and repairing weapons and armors has doubled compared with usual. The workload has increased sharply, and the Ordnance Supervision officials have
The craftsmen are miserable.
However, as long as the work is done by humans, omissions are inevitable. Thousands of weapons and armors are shipped out and shipped to the military headquarters and places every day. It is inevitable that the numbers will be wrong. If ordinary weapons are returned, the armors will be returned.
Because of its high cost and super protective power, it has always been regarded as a top priority. Whenever something goes wrong, the reason must be investigated.
But where can I say it clearly?
There are people who are greedy for ink, there are people who make mistakes, there are even people who do it intentionally...
As a result, the Ordnance Supervisor and the various troops often blamed each other because of the wrong number of armors. No one was willing to admit that the mistake was their own, arguing with each other and refusing to give in to each other, which made He Ruoming very annoyed...
Fang Jun's words touched He Ruoming's heart, and he immediately sighed and said, "Who says it's not the case? Yesterday, a batch of newly made Shanwenjia was delivered to Youxiaowei, but after it was put into storage, the number was discovered.
It's a little worse. General Changsun Shunde refused to admit that it was their army in charge of the arsenal that made the mistake. He firmly believed that the weapons supervisor deliberately sent a few less sets... Isn't this a joke? He has obviously become a right Xiao.
If the number in Wei's arsenal is found to be wrong again, what does it have to do with our weapons supervisor? As a result, General Changsun refused to admit his mistake, which is simply unreasonable..."
Fang Jun slapped his thigh and said: "Those gang of soldiers are the most reckless. They have all entered the arsenal. What does it have to do with the weapons supervisor? But if He Ruojian is upright, there is nothing he can do. They are all fierce generals who charge into the battle. Speaking of which,
Whoever has the bigger fist has the final say, so how can I reason with you?"
He Ruoming deeply agreed.
…
He Ruoming, who had been tit-for-tat just now, now felt as if he and Fang Jun were late to meet each other.
The change in atmosphere made it difficult for all the officials in the hall to adapt...
Cen Wenwen sat at the head of the table, calm and relaxed, but the smile on the corner of his mouth seemed meaningful...
He didn't know what Fang Jun had in mind, but was Fang Jun the kind of person who would greet others with a smile even when he was being treated by others?
Obviously not!
If it were in the past, it would have been a good thing if He Ruoming had just spoken coldly to Fang Jun and Fang Jun had not punched him back on the spot. How could he still be talking happily like now, and it was so late to meet each other?
How can it be……
Therefore, even if Cen Wenwen doesn't know Fang Jun's idea, judging from Fang Jun's abnormal behavior, it is obvious that he has other plans. This casting bureau may not matter to others, but to the weapons supervisor, it may not matter.
A big hole...
The two people chatted harmoniously over there, and He Ruoming asked: "Fang Shilang, this foundry does not manufacture weapons, so what is its purpose?"
Fang Jun said: "Repair the armor."
He Ruoming frowned: "Is that all?"
"Of course, I am absolutely not lying. If He Ruojian discovers that I have violated my promise in the future, you can go to my door and scold me."
"..." He Ruoming was speechless.
Am I crazy or stupid to go to your door and scold you?
Your father sent someone to break my legs, and I had to crawl to the door to apologize...
However, since Liu Shi had been promised in advance, and now he saw that Fang Jun had no intention of manufacturing weapons, he nodded to Cen Wenwen and said: "In this case, my weapons supervisor has no objection. I leave it to Prime Minister Cen to decide everything."
Cen Wenwen felt that He Ruoming might have fallen into a trap, but naturally he would not expose it. Moreover, he was not sure what kind of medicine Fang Jun was selling in his gourd, so he said: "In that case, I will approve it on behalf of Zhengshitang."
The Ministry of War has set up a foundry bureau, and will issue official documents after submitting to His Majesty for your sanction."
Even Cen Wenwen, who is not very keen on power, still feels a little overwhelmed by the current situation of "covering the sky with one hand"...
Various reasons have led to the current bizarre scene in the political hall. Several prime ministers and ministers are ill, some have resigned, and some have thrown away their hands. As a result, only one prime minister like Cen Wenwen is in power. No matter what government affairs, all affairs are handled by
He made a decision with one word.
Because no one objects anymore...
However, Cen Wenwen was secretly wary of the fact that power is the most beautiful poison in the world. It is addictive and fascinating, but it can also plunge people into an irreversible situation in an instant. Although he is the only prime minister and assistant in the current political affairs hall, such a
The pleasure of "holding the sun, moon, universe, and everything in the world with a single word" certainly made him feel comfortable and happy, but if he couldn't control his greed for the wonderful taste brought by such power, there was no doubt that those people would be ruthless behind his back.
Stab myself several times...
I am vigilant in my heart, and I am naturally careful in everything, lest I accidentally get carried away and leave a fatal clue.
On the other hand, Fang Jun walked out of the political hall with brisk steps. Outside the Chengtian Gate, he saw that his general had already led the horse. He immediately took the reins and got on the horse. He waved his hand with high spirits: "Go back to the Ministry of War!"
He rode across Tianjie and headed straight for the Yamen of the Ministry of War within the imperial city.
As long as the Foundry Bureau can be established, he will have the confidence to establish an unprecedented "Ministry of War" and no longer have the backward way of directing military operations through the civilian system...
Separation of military and political affairs is the general trend!
