Qing Jialu

The border war is urgent, and Beijing and China are not peaceful.The cabinet and the household department are planning military pay, and the military department has been keeping an eye on the battle reports ahead.The spies of Jin Yiwei and Dongchang traveled between the front line and the capital to deliver news, while Xiao Yi, the emperor, was in charge of the overall situation.

On this day, John entered the palace as usual to give lectures to His Majesty. He had just opened the book when His Majesty said, "John, today I want to hear you explain the book "Fire Attack"."

John was taken aback, "Your Majesty, this is a book about firearms."

"I know." Xiao Yi happened to have this book in his hand, and he opened a page, "I looked at it yesterday, and there are many kinds of firearms written in it. It seems that Western firearms are more powerful than Daliang's."

"Our side is indeed more mature in the use of firearms." John said.

Xiao Yi asked again: "You can translate this book, which shows that you know everything about firearms. John, are you willing to build a batch of new firearms for my girder?"

"This..." John hesitated for a moment, "Your Majesty, this involves mathematics, mechanics, smelting and casting, etc. I am afraid there is no way to make it in Daliang."

"As long as you understand these knowledge, and then teach the craftsmen below how to make it, wouldn't it be all right?" Xiao Yi was a little puzzled, why John was so embarrassed.

"Your Majesty, the new firearms are no different from ordinary weapons. A slight mistake will kill people. Even the lowest-level craftsmen need to go through one or two years of training. It is difficult to create a batch of new firearms in a short period of time." John said truthfully, "Your Majesty, I know that you are worried about the border. Why don't you let someone buy a batch of firearms from overseas with a lot of money. Even a few red cannons or a dozen blunderbusses can exert great power on the battlefield."

"How powerful is it, can one defeat a hundred?" Xiao Yi couldn't believe it.

"It's more than that, Your Majesty." John danced and praised, "Its power is beyond your imagination."

Hearing that John was so sure, Xiao Yi believed his words, "Can you contact overseas merchants to buy back the firearms you mentioned for me."

"In the past, I traveled around the world and made friends with many businessmen. I can give it a try. But..." John frowned, "The price may be very expensive."

Xiao Yi didn't take it seriously, and waved his hand generously, "Money is not a problem, just ask the household department for it. However, things must be the latest and best."

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, I have sharp eyes and can tell good from bad." John readily agreed.

In Daliang, no one knew more about firearms than John.Xiao Yi smiled with satisfaction, "Also, I still hope that I, Liang, can make firearms by myself in the future. When this battle is over, we will study it slowly."

"Okay, okay." John praised sincerely, "Your Majesty, you are truly an enlightened emperor."

From the moment Xiao Yi agreed to lift the sea ban, John immediately fell in love with the Liang Emperor.I believe that under his rule, Daliang will be more open, rich and powerful.

On the other hand, before Wei Mo rushed back to Xining, the old general Wei Wei's injury suddenly deteriorated, his right arm was cramped and severely painful, and at night he had difficulty breathing and sweating profusely.

When Wei Mo arrived two days later, he saw his father paralyzed on the bed, his eyes closed, his limbs trembling from time to time.Wei Mo was shocked when he saw this, and grabbed the collar of the military doctor beside him, "What's wrong with my father, didn't he say that he was injured slightly, how could this happen?"

"Major General, let go of the military doctor." Deputy General Zhang roared with red eyes, "Wei Shuai, it's almost time to die."

"How come?" Wei Mo let go of his hand in a daze, feeling as if he was in a dream, "It's just a small arrow wound, how could he die?"

"Wei Shuai's illness was caused by trauma." The military doctor was put down, took a breath, and then explained to Wei Mo, "This is gold wound spasm, also known as tetanus."

tetanus!It's not that Wei Mo doesn't know the severity of tetanus, but still with the last sliver of hope, he looked at the military doctor begging, "It will be fine, right, please, save my father quickly."

The military doctor shook his head, "If you burn the wound with tongs when cleaning the wound first, maybe it can be saved. But once the disease occurs, it can't be saved."

Wei Mo sat down on the bed with a look of disbelief.He looked at his father and saw that his father was having difficulty breathing and his hands were still twitching, so he immediately held his father's hand tightly with his own.

As if sensing his son's return, Old General Wei opened his eyes.However, everyone knows that this is a flashback.

Old General Wei looked at his youngest son, he was not very articulate, and said intermittently: "Son, you...you are back..."

"Father." Wei Mo shed tears instantly, and called out "Father."Although he and his father had been fighting for many years, he never thought that one day his father would die.

"Okay, okay... peace... that's good. Reorganize the army... go again..." Old General Wei stared at his son with a pair of cloudy eyes, "Go, go and fight... Xiou..."

"Father, I will avenge you. But Daddy, I can't live without you. You have to sit in the rear for me." Wei Mo begged with tears, "I beg you, make it through."

"You...you can." Old General Wei smiled gratifiedly, and at the last moment, he finally recognized his youngest son.

After saying these four words, Old General Wei tilted his head, completely out of breath.

The news of the old general Wei Wei's death soon spread to the capital, and the whole country was shocked.After Xiao Yi heard the news, he was so shocked that the brush fell to the ground.

"How could this be? Wasn't the old general slightly injured?" Xiao Yi looked at Commander Cao of Jin Yiwei in disbelief.

But Cao Suyuan said with a sad face: "It is reported that it is caused by tetanus. This disease is very common in the army, and there is no cure. Please mourn your Majesty."

No one thought that the little arrow wound would kill him. Xiao Yi shook his head and sighed: "Although Old General Wei was very strict with me, and even disapproved of me taking the throne at the beginning, he is the elder who brought me into the army after all. Old General Wei Serve the country wholeheartedly, be loyal, and be a loyal minister.”

Recalling the days when he joined the army at the frontier, he and Wei Mo always made the old general angry, and then they were punished together.Under the seemingly strict rules, Wei Wei never really hurt Xiao Yi, let alone beat or scolded him.

Especially when Xiao Yi was taken away by Xiou, the old general Wei Wei sneaked into the grassland to look for it in person regardless of the danger.Although he is the emperor's grandson, Wei Wei dare not neglect.But Xiao Yi could see that Wei Wei's worry and concern for him were real.

It's a pity that Xiao Yi ignored the old general Wei's advice and insisted on rebellion, and took away his youngest son Wei Mo.Wei Po was very angry, and said harsh words on the spot, wanting to sever the father-son relationship with Wei Mo.

After Xiao Yi ascended the throne, he immediately seized the commander-in-chief of General Wei, ordered him to retreat to the rear, and let Wei Mo take charge of the frontier army.Xiao Yi defended his friend against injustice, and was very dissatisfied with the old general's partiality, so his relationship with the old general gradually faded.

Now that he heard the sad news of Old General Wei, Xiao Yi deeply regretted that he didn't have a good chat and drink with Old General Wei when he came to the capital to resolve the grievances of the year.

At that time, they all thought that the coming day would be long, but they didn't expect it to be the last time.
