Chapter 404: Preparing for the God Machine Service
The stove room was in a mess.
Du Shaoqin and Liu Rufeng had already eaten and drank enough and went to bed, leaving only bones and dregs on the floor and an empty wine jar staggering around.
"You guys are so arrogant and don't want to leave anything for me?" Xiao Chen said angrily after glaring at Duan Tianming.
At this time, Dongchang Prison was about to have breakfast, and it seemed that all he had to do was drink some porridge and eat a steamed bun.
"As soon as I started drinking this wine, I lost control in my heart. Plus, everyone was depressed about what happened last night, so..." Duan Tianming scratched his head and was embarrassed to say the next thing.
"You are still depressed, okay? I am the one who should be depressed the most, okay?" Xiao Chen said harshly.
"Yes. But to be honest, since the other party is so powerful, we should think carefully about how to deal with him in the future." Duan Tianming said with a serious face.
Such a powerful mysterious master appeared out of thin air, and even Xiao Chen was defeated by him. So who else in Dongchang can deal with him? Who else in the entire Ming Dynasty can defeat him? If it is a threat
It’s not just the prince, but the emperor. As the most powerful organization directly under the emperor, can Dongchang, as the most powerful organization directly under the emperor, have no choice but to sit on the sidelines again?
If that day comes, what meaning does Dongchang still have? If the emperor's safety cannot be guaranteed, how can the entire Ming Dynasty be safe?
Xiao Chen smiled: "In our Dongchang, you led the Thirteen Soldiers who gathered all the elites to overcome obstacles. Du Shaoqin is in charge of the jail. No matter how important the role is, it will be safe to enter the Dongchang jail. And the person who was just transferred
Liu Rufeng, who came to Dongchang, even though he is at the Qianhu level, he does not have a school captain to lead him."
"Do you want to equip Liu Rufeng with a military captain?" Duan Tianming asked curiously.
It stands to reason that Dongchang now has nearly two thousand captains. In addition to those eunuchs, Xiao Chen and Liu Rufeng are both at the Qianhu level. They each command a thousand captains, so there should be no problem.
However, Mr. Chang Gong said before that all the captains in Dongchang are under the control of Xiao Chen. In other words, apart from Mr. Chang Gong, Xiao Chen is the biggest in Dongchang.
But that was before, when Xiao Chen was still a captain.
Now, Xiao Chen has been promoted to the rank of Thousand Households, and Liu Rufeng, who was suddenly transferred, is also at the rank of Thousand Households. It is very possible that the two of them will lead the East Factory respectively.
However, judging from the current situation, Liu Rufeng's status in Dongchang is only about the same as his own, and it is obviously impossible for him to be the captain of half of Dongchang.
Besides, although Dongchang and Jinyiwei are both agencies directly under the emperor, Dongchang is obviously closer to the emperor and has greater power. Liu Rufeng's ability is not enough to support half of Dongchang's empire.
However, letting a captain with a thousand households lead a military service is really overqualified.
"No, one captain is not enough. I want to give him three captains to create a divine machine with the strongest combat effectiveness for Dongchang." Xiao Chen's face slowly grew confident.
Last night, after suffering a defeat, Xiao Chen clearly felt that his firepower was insufficient. The establishment of this magical machine army could not be delayed without delay.
And Liu Rufeng is also the most suitable candidate for the commander of this magical machine.
"Shen Ji Yu? You mean, equip them all with firearms?" Duan Tianming looked excited.
The Shenji Battalion is the most powerful ace army of the Ming Dynasty. The firearms in its hands possess powerful lethality. They are invincible in every attack and are invincible in every battle.
If Dongchang can have such a team of captains who use firearms, let alone the mysterious old man who only brought a dozen masters last night, even if he brought a few more people, Dongchang would definitely make it impossible for them to come back.
Xiao Chen nodded, with a strange smile on his face: "I just had an idea about this matter. Now the prince is arranged in the prison of the Ministry of Punishment. As long as there is no news, it is still very safe. I plan to go there as soon as possible.
Huailaiwei, discuss this matter with the factory owner, and see if the emperor can agree."
"The emperor will definitely agree. The stronger the Dongchang is, the safer the emperor will be, right?" Duan Tianming said.
"That's the truth, but if the emperor agrees, he will have to deploy three hundred firearms from the Shenji camp, which he values the most. I'm afraid the emperor won't be willing to part with it." Xiao Chen said, while secretly thinking.
The idea of Shenji Camp.
"Hey, what did I think it was? It turns out it's just a matter of firearms. His Majesty Dongchang's most caring organization, three hundred firearms, the Emperor can't bear to part with it." Duan Tianming rubbed his scarlet eyes, squatted on the ground, and said
Start tending the stove.
Although it is already mid-March and the temperature has risen significantly, a spring rain in the morning made people feel a bit cold again.
While the stove is burning, let the brothers adjust the temperature.
"I don't like ordinary firearms. What I want is the kind of firearm that is easy to carry and powerful. In the entire Shenji Camp, the number of such firearms is only a thousand. Your Majesty, tell me more.
We can get it done with just a good word, but I'm afraid that the Shenji camp will feel sorry for him and refuse to agree." Xiao Chen also squatted down and threw a piece of charcoal into the stove.
"As long as you persuade the Emperor, how dare the Shenji Battalion refuse the firearm matter?" Duan Tianming said.
"I'm sure he wouldn't dare to refuse, but if he said there wasn't that much, even if the emperor knew they didn't want to give it, would he still be able to force it? They are his favorite institutions, and the emperor wouldn't be willing to favor one over the other."
Xiao Chen shook his head.
Looking at Xiao Chen, Duan Tianming fiddled with the ground with his right hand a few times, then simply sat down on the ground.
"The Shenji Battalion has five or six thousand soldiers and horses. This kind of portable and powerful firearm is only a thousand. You are asking for three hundred for your mouth. Isn't it a bit much?" Duan hugged his knees with both hands.
Tianming stared straight at Xiao Chen.
You don't know how expensive firewood and rice are. The Shenji camp relies on firearms to dominate the battlefield and is invincible. You are a guy who wants to rob people of their food. The quantity is so large that even if people rush to make it, they can't replenish it all at once.
I am afraid that this wish will not come true if I only pick and choose other people's good things.
"More is more, but not much at all. Originally, I was thinking of equipping Liu Rufeng with 500 captains to form a divine machine service. But after thinking about it, although the 500 captains have more powerful combat effectiveness, their maneuverability is a bit unsatisfactory.
Liu Rufeng is very skilled. Let him lead the Shenji Battalion. I just want our Dongchang to have no more enemies that we can’t defeat in the capital. I must get these three hundred firearms from the Shenji Battalion."
Xiao Chen said it categorically.
"What if Shenji Camp really doesn't give it? You're not going to use force, are you?" Duan Tianming said a little worried, looking at Xiao Chen's determined look.
"How is it possible? Am I the kind of person who is unreasonable and uses power to suppress others? If they don't give it to me, I will put on my unicorn purple clothes and go and reason with the commander of the Shenji Battalion." Xiao Chen chuckled.
Duan Tianming: "..."
Pick up the charcoal and throw it into the furnace with a click.
