Yang Wenguang trained the new troops of the Jingsai Army in Baozhou, and the training was impressive. It is said that in the autumn, the Liao people went south to clear grass valleys. Yang Wenguang also led the new troops out, annihilated some Liao soldiers, and tempered the Jingsai Army.
military.
It can be said that the new Jingsai Army has achieved initial results under the training of Yang Wenguang.
If Kou Ji wants to use it, he only needs to ask the inner court to issue a handwritten letter and send it to the Privy Council, who will issue a transfer order.
The Tiger Army trained by Di Qing and others has gained some courage after this training, and I believe they will stand out when they step onto the battlefield in the future.
Kou Ji had a lot of plans in his hands, but they were the only two generals. The two generals who could take charge of the three armies in the future naturally had to be protected.
Kou Ji supported Di Qing and sent him to the edge of the school field.
The second sister of the Cao family had already trotted forward with a worried look on her face and took Di Qing from Kou Ji's hand.
The second sister of the Cao family supported Di Qing and nodded to Kou Ji, "Thank you Kou Tongzhi..."
Di Qing opened his mouth, trying to persuade the second sister of the Cao family to call Kou Ji her brother.
Kou Ji shook his head inconspicuously.
Di Qing sighed secretly and closed his mouth.
Kou Ji ordered: "No need to be polite... Di Qing's injury is not serious. After returning to the military camp, you and Zhu You will have to take care of all the affairs in the military camp for the time being."
After you return, convey my order and ask the soldiers guarding the camp to seal the entrance to the camp and not allow the soldiers to go out at will for the time being.
Let them recover well in the camp.
Then we will count the number of casualties in this battle and report them to me.
I can report the damage to the officials.
It would also be helpful to help the soldiers obtain adequate pensions as soon as possible."
The second sister of the Cao family supported Di Qing and bowed.
"Here..."
Seeing that the second sister of the Cao family was in a hurry to help Di Qing go back to recover from his injuries, Kou Ji didn't talk to them any more, just held his hands and left the school grounds.
The second sister of the Cao family supported Di Qing and returned to the military camp outside the city.
Kou Ji got on the carriage and returned to Kou Mansion.
After returning to the house.
Kou Ji immediately sent someone to summon Liu Heng to come over.
The Tiger Character Army fought three battles and won three victories at the school in the west of the city. Not only did the Tiger Character Army become famous all over the world, but it also made everyone in the Song Dynasty realize clearly the new materials forged by Kou Ji, the armor he forged, and the power of his weapons.
.
The goal that Kou Ji wanted to achieve with the help of the Tiger Character Army has been achieved.
Next, it is time to push the wind direction up and down the government and the opposition and challenge the generals and supervisors.
After Liu Heng received the notification from the servant of the Kou Mansion, he mounted his horse and galloped all the way to the Kou Mansion.
After getting off the horse, we walked all the way to the atrium of Kou Mansion.
After the two of them sat down.
Kou Ji saw Liu Heng looking good and asked with a smile: "Is it solved?"
Of course Liu Heng knew what Kou Ji was asking.
Immediately, Liu Heng said with emotion: "My father said that she is a barbaric girl and cannot be my wife, but can only be a concubine. He also said that if I want to marry her, I must choose a lady from a famous family.
Wife room.
I originally thought that she would mind her status as a concubine and would not commit herself to me.
But he didn't expect that she didn't care about this.
The same goes for Brother An."
Hearing that Liu Heng had settled his marriage with sister An Ziluo, Kou Ji was sincerely happy for Liu Heng's arrival.
While happy.
Kou Ji noticed something deliberately hidden in Liu Heng's words.
Kou Ji asked slightly curiously: "So...who is the wife that uncle has chosen for you?"
From Liu Heng's words, it was not difficult for Kou Ji to judge that the candidate for Liu Heng's wife had obviously been decided, otherwise how could he talk to An Ziluo's sister and An Ziluo about letting An Ziluo's sister be his concubine.
When he mentioned his wife, Liu Heng felt a little embarrassed and whispered: "She is the daughter of Su Su, a member of the ancestral hall under the Ministry of Rites..."
"Su Su's daughter?"
Kou Ji was stunned for a moment. After thinking for a while, he raised his head, stared at Liu Heng and said, "Is she Su Su's little girl?"
Su Su, a member of the ancestral hall, has four daughters. The eldest is already thirty and the youngest is only sixteen.
At Liu Heng's age, the only person who can pair up with him is Su Su's young daughter.
Liu Heng sighed and nodded with a wry smile.
Kou Ji laughed and said, "You don't seem to be happy with what you mean? The Su family is a scholarly family, and Su Su's youngest daughter is one of the best in Bianjing City in terms of talent, reputation, and appearance.
This kind of woman cannot be snatched away by anyone else.
Are you still a little unhappy?"
Su Su has three brothers. Their reputations are not very prominent, but they have some talents.
Although all three of them were officials in the court, none of them held important positions.
All are official positions with mixed salaries.
The reason why the Su family became a famous family in Bianjing City was because of his father.
Su Su's father is a famous big shot.
My name is Su Yijian.
Zhou Shizong was born in the fifth year of Xiande, and Song Taizong was in peace and prosperity for five years. Together with Kou Zhun and other outstanding people, they fought decisively in the examination room and overcame all the outstanding people to win the title of No. 1 Scholar.
After entering the official career, he was promoted rapidly.
In just fourteen years, he sat in the position of participating in political affairs.
This person has a hobby and likes to drink.
How much do you like it?
Drink wine as water, without wine there is no joy.
As soon as he became the Councilor and Governor, within a year, he was impeached and dismissed from his position because of drunkenness.
After that, he drank himself to death due to excessive drinking.
But don't look down on him just because he drinks like crazy.
Although he was addicted to alcohol, he did not delay anything he needed to do.
He competed in the examination room at a young age and was able to surpass the others.
After entering the official career, all government affairs were dealt with properly.
To educate the children in the family is to do your best.
Under his guidance, all three sons were strong in talent and learning.
It is one of the few scholarly families in Bianjing with a family background.
Girls from the Su family are naturally not weak.
Compared to Xiang Yan, the girl from the fifth room of the Cao family, and the girl from the Zhang family, Su Su's daughter is slightly inferior, but compared to other girls in Bianjing City, she is not weak.
Liu Mei probably paid a lot to help Liu Heng marry Su Su's young daughter.
Otherwise, given the nobility of the Su family, how could they be willing to marry the Liu family?
Liu Mei probably tried her best to find such a good match for Liu Heng, but looking at Liu Heng's intentions, she didn't seem satisfied.
Under Kou Ji's question, Liu Heng said with a bitter face: "Fourth brother, how dare I dislike others..."
Kou Ji asked: "Why is that?"
Liu Heng smiled bitterly and said: "Fourth brother, you also know that the Su family has a long history, and most of the children in the family are talented people. Su Su's youngest daughter is even more talented. But what about me? I have read the Five Classics, and I can't do arithmetic.
I know a little bit about it, but I know nothing about things like poetry, lyrics, and poetry.
If you marry her, how will you live in the future?
Talk about poetry and poetry with her?
Or should I drag her to practice martial arts with me?"
When Kou Ji heard this, the corner of his mouth twitched.
Thinking about the way Su Su's little girl played with Jiao Didi and was dragged along by Liu Heng to practice martial arts, the scene would be really unsightly.
Kou Ji stared at Liu Heng, curled his lips and said, "I thought you looked down on them, but I didn't expect that you were afraid that you wouldn't know how to treat them after they entered the house."
Liu Heng nodded seriously.
Although he was literate and hyphenated, he had some literary talent.
But compared to the young daughter of the Su Su family who came from a scholarly family, there is no way to compare.
It would be so embarrassing if we couldn't talk to each other after getting married because of academic issues.
Kou Ji wanted to use himself as an example to give some advice to Liu Heng, but after thinking about it carefully, he thought it would be better not to talk too much.
Liu Heng settled his marriage with sister An Ziluo without asking for his help.
He can definitely handle the marriage to Su Su's young daughter.
If two good things are messed up because of carelessness, it will not be a good thing.
Kou Ji smiled at Liu Heng and said, "I can't help you with this matter. You have to find a way to solve it yourself."
Liu Heng smiled dryly and said: "Of course there is no need to trouble Fourth Brother about this kind of thing."
After a pause, Liu Heng's face straightened, he looked at Kou Ji and said, "Fourth brother, why did you call me here this time?"
Kou Ji sat upright and said with a smile: "I want to borrow the Imperial City Secretary in your hand to help me spread some news and some things."
Liu Heng looked at Kou Ji with confusion.
Kou Ji smiled and explained: "Do you know that the Tiger Army under my rule had three battles and three victories at the campus in the west of the city?"
Liu Heng nodded heavily, "The Tiger Character Army is in the west campus of the city. It has defeated the Second Guards of Dragon God and the Tianwu Army. Its reputation has spread throughout Bianjing City. I don't think it's hard not to pay attention to it."
Kou Ji smiled and said: "What I want you to do is to help the Tiger Army become famous."
Liu Heng said unexpectedly: "The reputation of the Tiger Character Army is now at its peak in Bianjing City. Do you still need my help?"
Kou Ji shook his head and said: "It is not enough for the reputation of the Tiger Character Army to be resounding throughout Bianjing City. I also need it to be resounding throughout the Song Dynasty."
Liu Heng frowned and said, "Fourth brother is not afraid that the Tiger Character Army will be targeted?"
Kou Ji smiled calmly and said, "If I were afraid that they would be targeted, I wouldn't let you help the Tiger Army become famous."
Liu Heng nodded thoughtfully and asked: "Fourth brother, what is your purpose of helping the Tiger Army become famous?"
Kou Ji picked up the teacup on the table, took a sip, and said with a smile: "Of course it's so that the armor they wear can become famous all over the world."
Liu Heng was stunned for a moment, opened his eyes slightly, and asked tentatively: "Fourth brother is planning to help steel become famous?"
Kou Ji smiled knowingly and nodded.
Liu Heng also laughed, "Steel is a good thing, and it really should be famous all over the world."
After Kou Ji laughed, he continued: "In addition to helping the Huzi Army become famous, you also need your people to work with Qian, Meng, and Mu's caravans, as well as our Wanxiang Building, to sell some things."
"What?"
"Wood carving in full armor of Tiger Character Army..."
"..."
Liu Heng didn't understand at all what Kou Ji's intention was.
If it's just for selling wood carvings, it's totally unnecessary.
Kou Ji didn't explain much to Liu Heng.
He just told Liu Heng to do as he told him.
Even if Kou Ji explained some things clearly to Liu Heng, it would be better for Liu Heng to experience them himself.
As the Tiger-Charactered Army becomes famous all over the world, the wooden carvings of the same armor as the Tiger-Charactered Army will inevitably become popular throughout the Song Dynasty.
The line carved under the wood carving explains that the armor of the Tiger-shaped Army was forged by the Ministry of Industry, and it will also spread throughout the Song Dynasty.
thereafter.
The Ministry of Industry will launch more good things and appear in the eyes of the people.
For example, advanced steel plowshares, three-spindle pedal spinning wheels, etc.
All kinds of things that benefit the country and the people will emerge from the workshops of the Ministry of Industry, and then be promoted throughout the Song Dynasty.
When the time comes, the four words "forged by the Ministry of Industry" engraved on all the instruments promoted by the Ministry of Works will be firmly imprinted in the minds of everyone in the Song Dynasty.
Once the time is right.
There is no need for Kou Ji to do anything or anything to say.
Many people would stand up and speak to the Ministry of Works, requesting the imperial court to take back the forging and construction rights of the Supervisors, Shaofu Supervisors, and the Third Division and hand them over to the Ministry of Works.
There were many corrupt officials and corrupt officials in the Song Dynasty, but there were also many honest and good officials.
Please pray for the people.
There are countless officials who risk their lives for the sake of the people and the country.
Once they see the contribution made by the Ministry of Industry to the court and the people, they will definitely not choose to remain silent.
At that time, people will inevitably rush out one after another, and the Helping Department will fight their way out. The Helping Department will seize the forging and construction rights from the Third Division, the Shaofu Supervisor, and the Supervisor.
When Kou Ji was forced to join the Ministry of Industry, he had already begun to think about this matter.
Until the Yellow River burst its banks and flooded Bianjing City, causing hundreds of thousands of refugees to pour into Bianjing City, his plan had gradually been perfected.
He laid out carefully, made moves slowly, and laid out an overall picture.
An overall situation that encompasses people all over the world.
Help the Ministry of Work regain power with the help of people all over the world.
The power of the Ministry of Industry is divided among the three divisions, the Shaofu Supervisor, and the three yamen of General Supervisor.
None of the three yamen is easy to deal with.
There are countless interest disputes involved behind the scenes.
The forces involved are also very complex.
If Kou Ji plans one yamen alone, it will inevitably arouse the vigilance of the other two yamen. Otherwise, the three yamen will join forces to deal with him.
Among the three yamen, except for the third division, there are not many officials in the remaining two yamen.
But the power behind them is huge.
The officials of the three yamen and the forces behind them combined were enough to shake up the court.
If Kou Ji had a head-on fight with them, he would be able to defeat them, but this would consume a lot of Kou's government's strength.
And if the Kou Mansion does not have enough power to intimidate the government and the public, restless people such as Liu E and Zhao Yuanyan will jump out one after another to deal with the Kou Mansion.
Kou Ji was not sure that he could keep the Kou government intact under the hands of Liu E and Zhao Yuanyan even though the Kou government had lost troops and generals.
Therefore, he cannot compete head-on with the Third Division, the Shaofu, and the three yamen.
You can only borrow strength.
Use the power of the people in the world to help him achieve his goals.
Now, Kou Ji has already done everything that needs to be done.
Just wait for the Tiger Character Army to become famous all over the world, and let the Ministry of Industry take advantage of the Tiger Character Army to follow suit and become famous all over the world.
With the help of the caravans of the three major merchants, Mu, Qian and Meng.
With the huge supply of money from Yizijiaozipu.
With the help of semicolons from all over the Wanxiang Tower.
Kou Ji won't wait long.
With sufficient manpower, material resources, financial resources, and technical support, the Ministry of Industry will definitely be recognized by people all over the world in a very short period of time.
After receiving Kou Ji's instructions, Liu Heng immediately stood up, bowed his hands, exited the atrium of Kou's mansion, and rushed to the imperial city to deliver the order.
Kou Ji sat quietly in Kou's mansion and waited for things to ferment.
