Chapter 63 Sending firearms, waste of people and money!
"Meet the lord!"
The members of the Wang family stood up and knelt down together with Bai Qi, Liu Bian quickly stepped forward to help Bai Qi, "The general is injured, so there is no need to perform such a grand ceremony!"
But he ignored those pale Wang family members and sat on a high position instead.
The members of the Wang family naturally saw Liu Bian's displeasure, and bowed again: "I have seen the lord!"
Liu Bian was silent and did not respond immediately.
The members of the Wang clan who were kneeling on the ground looked at each other but did not dare to stand up.
After a long time, Liu Bian finally opened his mouth, "What are you doing here?"
Seeing that the lord Liu Bian didn't intend to let them get up, they didn't dare to stand up on their own, but an older man said, "My lord, my grandson just drank a little wine. Then General Bai insisted on beheading him in the street, and asked the lord to uphold justice!"
"This general has issued a military order that drinking is not allowed in the city during wartime. For your military order, your grandson should be beheaded for public display, so as to rectify the military law!" Bai Qi said in a deep voice.
The old man of the Wang family said indifferently: "This military law has always been set for the people below. When will we, the famous families, have to abide by it?"
Liu Bian was still listening, silent.
But the old man's words made him sneer.
"So, this method is not set up for famous families like you?" Huo Qubing asked.
"In troubled times, this law naturally only governs the common people!" Even though the old man of the Wang family was kneeling on the ground, he still thought highly of himself.
"According to what you mean, the Dahan's law has no effect on you?" Liu Bian asked.
The old man of the Wang family seemed to be old and demented, and immediately said: "That is the law of the previous dynasty..."
Halfway through the speech, he seemed to realize that there was something wrong with what he said. Perhaps the person behind him pulled him, which made him aware of something, and hurriedly said: "I don't have such intentions, please forgive me, my lord!"
Liu Bian sneered, "Then what do you mean?"
The old man of the Wang family immediately began to change the subject again, "My lord, we are following the prefect Wang to serve my lord, and we have no second thoughts in our hearts. Please forgive me, my lord!"
"Have no other intentions?"
Liu Bian stood up suddenly, and said angrily: "The battle is imminent, your good grandson defied the military order to drink, and General Bai ordered him to be beheaded. At this critical moment, your whole family actually caused chaos in the city, and even broke the city in the end." At that time, I hid at home and did not come out, does this mean that I have no second thoughts about me?"
"I think this is a commendable loyalty, do I need to reward you?"
"My lord, forgive me..." The old Wang family wanted to say something to defend himself, but Liu Bian got up and left without giving him this chance.
Now is not the time to tear your face away with these aristocratic families!
"Send a message to Governor Wang and ask him to go to Jian'an City to handle the matter!" Liu Bian left the back hall and told Huo Qubingdao beside him.
Huo Qubing left in response.
"call--"
Liu Bian let out a sigh of relief, but felt helpless. In the final analysis, he was still not strong enough, and it was not easy to kill these aristocratic families directly.
The most important thing is that Wang Lang has hard work without credit. If he just kills the Wang family, then Wang Lang will not be able to face it.
Wang Lang has a sense of propriety in his work, so he will definitely handle this matter properly!
As he walked, Liu Bian thought of another question. This is the case in Jian'an City, so what about the other cities under his rule?
After the border is stabilized this time, he must clean up the internal affairs to prevent the people from being squeezed without his knowledge!
Days went by day by day, and on this day, Liu Bian received news about Yuan Shu in Huainan again.
"Yuan Shu wanted to join Yuan Shao. Cao Cao ordered Liu Bei to stop Yuan Shu in Xuzhou. Yuan Shu was defeated and died in Shouchun. Liu Xun led his remnants. Liu Bei took Xuzhou in a surprise attack!"
After reading the letter, Liu Bian couldn't help laughing.
"What are you all playing with?"
"It's a mess!"
"This Liu Bei has both sides! Hahaha... Prime Minister Cao must be so angry that he loses his temper, right?"
At this time, Cao Cao got a cannon and some ammunition to study in the court!
"Is this the firearm used by Liu Bian?" Cao Cao asked as he walked around the cannon.
"Reporting to the Prime Minister, it is true!" A man dressed in rich clothes bowed and replied, "This item is called a cannon, and there is another item called a musket!"
With that said, someone brought out a gun filled with gunpowder.
"Is this the thing that frightens people and kills people invisible?" A minister was surprised.
"Exactly."
"Where did you get these things? I heard that Yizhou Liu Bian guarded these very closely!" Cao Cao asked back.
The man in rich clothes bowed and replied: "Prime Minister, as the saying goes, money can make the world go round!"
"That makes sense! So you bought it with money?" Cao Cao nodded.
The man in Chinese clothes hurriedly said: "I have nothing else to ask for, I just want to be able to do business under the prime minister's rule!"
"Can you make this thing?" Cao Cao nodded and continued to ask.
The man in Chinese clothes smiled wryly and said: "If you go back to the prime minister, the little one is just a vulgar person who earns some money by doing business. How can he know these things? There are so many skilled craftsmen under the prime minister, wouldn't it be easy to take them apart and study them?"
"Okay, that's right, I've agreed to your request! You can go down!" Cao Cao was still very satisfied with this.
The man in fine clothes nodded repeatedly and carefully exited the court.
But the moment he exited the court, he showed an intriguing smile.
In fact, this person was a spy sent by Liu Bian, and he was asked to go to the north to investigate the enemy's situation.
In order to bring him closer to the secret, he was given a cannon and a musket as a guide.
As for Cao Cao asking his skilled craftsmen to make artillery and muskets?
This is really embarrassing for them. After all, it has spanned several centuries. Even if there are design drawings, it may not be made, let alone only the real thing?
What's more, after the three east and west gates in the south of Jian'an City were broken, the cannons and muskets on the top of the city had long since disappeared, and they must have been taken by other princes. It is no big deal to send out two more now.
The most important thing is how to match the ammunition is the most important thing!
Once Cao Cao steals a large amount of manpower and material resources, it will inevitably waste people and money, and the gains outweigh the losses.
"Congratulations, Your Majesty, with this item, the rejuvenation of the Han Dynasty is just around the corner!" Cao Cao looked at the items in the palace and was overjoyed.
He doesn't believe that what Liu Bian can make man-made, the people under Cao Cao can't make it?
Jian'an City.
After a long journey, Wang Lang finally arrived at Jian'an City.
"Greetings, my lord!" Wang Lang probably knew the situation, and rushed to meet Liu Bian.
"Get up! You already know the matter, right?" Liu Bian asked calmly.
"The subordinates know!"
"After all, you, the Wang family, caused this matter, so I leave it to you at this time!" Liu Bian remained expressionless.
He is giving both kindness and power, so that Wang Lang can continue to be loyal to him in the future.
As for the Wang family, Liu Bian was not worried about Wang Lang's methods.
