Chapter 473

Luojiang governor's house, outside the festival hall.

Cao then walked around with an excited face. He received the news that the crossbow camp was shining in the Qin land. He made many achievements in the war with the Taixi people and blocked the birds of the Taixi people. Now the Lord has ordered to spread it here in Luojiang.

At the beginning, I didn't follow the mountain commander to qindi and fell behind the new crossbow for a whole generation. This time, I took this opportunity to ask the governor of Dadu to send a batch of new crossbow for my own use.

"Cao meets the captain. The governor asks you to go in."

Finally, it's Cao's turn to meet him.

Cao took the whole bundle of clothes and armor, marched into the festival hall and saluted with boxing.

"Cao Jie met the governor and the deputy governor."

Rhoda's eyebrows at the top picked, and she seemed dissatisfied with Cao Jie's boxing salute.

Since Rhoda became the governor of Luojiang Prefecture, the Han state has become more and more powerful in controlling the Liangjiang region. Because of the war between the Qi people and the British, they have no time to look north. The Liangjiang region has recuperated, the people's livelihood has been well developed, and even more taxes have been paid.

Rhoda thinks she has done well, even if the Lord is in charge of Liangjiang area.

"Cao Jie, why did you come to see me?"

Cao Jie said respectfully, "the last general heard that the imperial court wanted to strengthen the defense of the two rivers and promised to mobilize a batch of new catapults for our Luojiang Navy and ports. The last general dared to ask the governor for several. The catapults used by the catapult battalion under the minister have lagged behind the new catapults for a generation."

"Zhang Gan is in qindi and follows Colonel he Wuwang, but he is addicted to using new crossbows to fight birds."

"Enough!"

Rhoda roared, the military affairs booklet on her hand fell heavily on the handsome case, and the pen, ink, paper and inkstone flew disorderly.

"The imperial court strengthens the defense of the two rivers. Is this what you, a small crossbow battalion lieutenant, can hear?"

"Don't rely on someone to support you and dare to spread military secrets wantonly. If it destroys military and state affairs, the governor will cut off your head."

Cao jiemeng forced him to stand below and lie in the groove. How can I spread the secrets of the imperial court? The documents on strengthening defense with crossbows have long been written in my crossbow camp. I just learned from my classmates in the martial arts school that the imperial court is going to promote new crossbows in Liangjiang, so I came to ask for several. If I don't give them, I'll just fart.

The eyes of all the soldiers in the festival hall were attracted, and Wenjiang said.

"Governor, the document for strengthening defense has long been sent to the crossbow battalion. Strengthening Defense this time is the main work of the crossbow battalion."

Wenjiang is a returning general. He is careful everywhere. For the cadets from Su Lu's martial arts school, he gives preferential treatment everywhere and does not dare to neglect them. Otherwise, with his careful style, he will never speak when Rhoda is angry.

Rhoda's face turned red when she heard the speech, and she almost suffered an internal injury.

"I see."

Rhoda said in a muffled voice, lowered her head and continued to read the military affairs booklet in her hand. She didn't answer Cao at all.

Wenjiang narrowed his eyes and changed his eyes between Rhoda and Cao Jie. He also became a Maitreya Buddha and asked him to say a word for Cao Jie, but it was impossible to fight with Rhoda.

Cao Jie came out of the festival hall disheartened. His heart was stuffy. It was obviously a good thing. How did he get to Rhoda and become stuffy.

"Lao Cao, you still have the leisure to come to the governor's residence. You haven't read the new imperial script. You have more work in the crossbow camp."

The man who came face to face patted Cao Jie on the shoulder and said with a smile. He came to see Rhoda and spread the trend of Qi people and inter people. When he met Cao's favorite disciple, he deliberately came to have a word.

Cao then saluted pingqi, "the last general has seen pingqi governor, so he's going to be busy."

Cao then went out. Although he didn't want to come to the new type of crossbow, he still had to do something. Crossbow guards should be arranged at ferries all over Luojiang River, especially at several important ports.

Ping Qi narrowed his eyes and smiled: "Lao Cao, you are the prince's favorite student. Who dares to annoy you? After looking back, you became angry, left the crossbow camp and ran to the Ordnance Department. There was an accident along the Luojiang River, and governor Luo couldn't help it."

Cao's eyes lit up. Yes, if you Rhoda don't transfer the new crossbow for me, I can ask for it myself. Go to the Ordnance Department. There, I can always deal with the new crossbow.

Dani, he Wu is there, and the Ordnance Department often goes to the Lord's army. I don't know how Zhang Gan did with the crossbow camp. When he returns to the Ordnance Department, he will certainly see him.

However, we should clear up the matter at hand. The crossbows everywhere should be deployed. The mountain leader took great pains to fight down these two rivers, and we can't let the British seize them again.

Thinking like this, Cao Jie became more fighting spirit again, greeted pingqi, hummed a minor, and proudly went out of the governor's house.

Pingqi looked at Cao Jie's back and a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes. Cao Jie is a man valued by the Lord. If he can directly put down the challenge, his future achievements will be limited. If he can complete the deployment of crossbows at the port along the river and put down the challenge, he will be a talent worthy of training.

Wang's account of the rating, whether it can be a higher level, it depends on your Cao suck himself to give up.

A month later, Su Lu looked at Cao Jie, who was kneeling in front of the handsome case, and frowned.

"After you graduated from the martial arts school, didn't you go to the governor's office of Luojiang? Why, when did the imperial court transfer you to me?"

Cao Jie got up from the ground and said with a smile, "the last general can't perform in the governor's office of Luojiang. He's always made trouble. He can't stand it. After completing his duties along the river, he asked to be transferred to the Ordnance Department. Governor Rhoda approved it directly."

Su Lu frowned. It was his own arrangement to set up defense at all ferries in Luojiang. How could Cao take over and offend Rhoda.

"Why, why did you make Rhoda angry? Your boy is always itchy. Do you want me to write to general Rhoda and explain to you?"

Cao Jie waved his hand again and again: "no, no, mountain commander, I'm very good in the Ordnance Department. I can deal with the latest crossbow. I have a good dream when I sleep."

Su Lu nodded: "well, at my point, go to meet your old buddy Zhang Gan. The boy went to the martial arts school for some time. Although he hasn't graduated, he has many means. There are few wars in Liangjiang area. You have to learn to operate guns with Zhang Gan."

"The students know, so they go to learn from Lao Zhang and meet our new crossbow. I can't hold it in Luojiang. There are no new crossbows there."

Su Lu frowned more tightly: "I specially allocated 100 new-style crossbows from here, wrote to Rhoda and ordered him to deploy them at all ports of Luojiang. Why didn't you see those new-style crossbows?"

"Didn't you finish the deployment of crossbow guns at each port?"

Cao then called to bump into Tianqu, "mountain commander, you can ask governor Qi of Wending, Wei Ping. I asked Rhoda for a transfer order after I completed the deployment of the crossbow myself. When I came to the Ordnance Department, I didn't dare to be careless about your requirements, mountain commander."

"Then why didn't you see those new catapults?"

Dong Ling asked with a smile. At the same time, he put a military affairs booklet in front of Su Lu.
