Soldiers Card System

Li Qing passed through the boiling snow and entered the bedroom.

The court ladies around hurried over to help her beat the snowflakes on her body and wipe the water stains on her cheeks.

After tidying up, Li Qing sat down on the recliner and stuffed his hand into Su Lu to keep warm.

"Just now I heard you say that you are going to make dumplings, isn't Da Ya here? Why don't people eat some delicacies, just give people dumplings."

The cotton robe was very warm. Although it was snowing heavily, Su Lu was warm. Seeing the boiling snow, Su Lu smiled and said:

"I said dumplings, but not this dumpling."

"In the sea to the east, the Great British ships have been provoking for a month in a row. We don't have any stern ships, we only have small sampans for training navy forces, which are not enough for the Great British ships to hit."

"Our ships are too far behind the British. If we want to defeat the British's maritime hegemony, we have to make dumplings on the sea as many as there are dumplings in the pot."

Li Qing glanced at Su Lu when he heard the words: "Then just say you build more big ships, and dump dumplings. It's a metaphor that you can't think of."

"Hey, discuss something."

Li Qing leaned on Su Lu, with a charming smile on his cheeks, "I'm tired of going up to the court these few days. Go and take charge of the court affairs for me for a few days."

"no way"

Su Lu refused without hesitation, "The upper dynasty is the emperor's business, I am a prince, and the war is still okay, but the upper dynasty is resolutely impossible."

"Furthermore, those courtiers who were cleaned up by me were all submissive, and they didn't even have a thorn. I can't stand the buzzing of them."

Li Qing was a little disappointed when he heard that the Shang Dynasty was indeed an irritable thing. I didn't think so much before. After Su Lu presided over the government for several months, Li Qing became more and more disliked.

It is meaningless to wake up to the power of the world.

The two discussed the political affairs for a while, and Li Qing got a lot of suggestions from Su Lu, only then got up and went to see his daughter in the palace.

The next day, when Li Qing was firmly seated on the throne, Zhao Pu, the minister of war, went to work.

"Your Majesty, the Wangjiang navy governor’s office urgently reported that a stern warship from the British collided with a large ship sailing from the inland river into the port of Wangjiang in our country. The hull of the large ship was damaged in many places and almost sank overseas in Wangjiang. ."

"If the Thais are left alone, things will happen if things go on like this."

Li Qing heard about Su Lu's words, he still lacks the ship, if there is the same big ship, just drive out, and see if his Intel dare to hit his big ship.

"But there were casualties, and the letter was sent to Su Ping. If the Intels dare to be arrogant, don't hesitate to pull out our newly built warships and fight them."

Zhou Ping, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, hurriedly went on duty: "Your Majesty, no, the newly created stern battleship is the first large ship in China, and there is still a gap between the large ship of the British and the British. If it is really fought at sea, I'll be the one who suffers from waiting."

Several generals in the General Staff Office also spoke up one after another, discouraging them.

Li Qing is a little irritable, or his own ship is small, if there are more than a dozen large ships, is it necessary to detain and search like this.

"The prince is right, we still have to make dumplings."

Li Qing sighed sincerely.

Below the imperial rank, the courtiers were a little confused and ordered dumplings, what did the princes mean.

Qian Qianyi was out of work and said tremblingly:

"Your Majesty, for such an important matter, I suggest to ask the prince. The prince has ruled the army for many years, and he has a lot of experience in the war. In this battle, whether I want to fight or make peace, this is the right thing to do with an army like the prince. God can hold it."

Everyone nodded when they heard the words, and several Shangshu and the servants agreed.

Zhou Yuan went on duty, "Your Majesty, the autumn planting in all prefectures and counties has been completed, and the grain output from all regions has been aggregated. Shazhou has ranked first in grain output with 3 million catties for three consecutive years, and the grain output of the rest of the prefectures is here."

Changning went down and submitted the memorandum. After Li Qing saw it, his eyebrows opened and he smiled. This year is another bumper year, so there is no need to worry about someone starving to death.

"It's winter now, and there are beginning to be heavy snowfalls in various places. It is instructed that local governments and counties must conduct strict inspections to prevent our Han people from freezing and starving to death."

Li Qing gave orders, waved his hand, and signaled Zhou Yuan to retreat.

Xiao Cong suddenly went out and asked:

"Your Majesty, the veteran is puzzled. What does the dumpling in this pot have to do with the Wangjiang River War? But the prince's generation of military gods never talks about useless flowers. What does this dumpling mean? Please make it clear, Your Majesty."

Li Qing smiled. It seemed that it wasn't that he was too stupid, but that the metaphor of the prince was too vague, but if he knew it, it would be vivid enough.

"When the dumplings float in the pot, do they look like a big boat on the water?"

Li Qing looked at Xiao Cong with a smile.

Xiao Cong slapped his thigh, his face was full of suddenly realized expressions.

"So that's it!"

"My Han is not on the sea, and has always paid little attention to shipbuilding. If it weren’t for the prince who had recruited Wenjiang navy, we wouldn’t even have a ship that could travel in the inland river. Although Wangjiang navy was established, the prince also issued a military order. Shipbuilding, it’s a pity that I don’t have such a skilled craftsman in Han."

"Up to now, I have only built a stern battleship. If you can really build as many stern battleships as the same pot of dumplings, you don't need to be afraid of the British stern battleships."

"The prince and talent, this metaphorical image is appropriate."

Li Qing took the opportunity to speak:

"The Ordnance Mansion has mastered the construction of the warships. What is lacking now is only proficiency. I intend to order the Ordnance Division to dispatch skilled craftsmen to carry out the construction of multiple warships at the same time. While accumulating experience, it can also speed up the formation of the Wangjiang Navy. What do you think?"

Dong Cheng was the first to jump out: "Your Majesty is unparalleled in wisdom, this is a great strategy, and the minister agrees."

Zhou Ping stood beside Dong Cheng without hesitation: "The minister seconded."

This kind of behavior to increase the right to speak for the Ministry of War, the people of the Ministry of War naturally raised their hands in favor.

Zhou Yuan was out of work and glanced at the soldiers, his tone was a little helpless:

"The minister should not object to the strengthening of the naval forces, but your majesty has shown that any ship of the stern warship costs a lot of money. If you find anything that can be improved during the construction, you can improve it in the next one. A better warship."

"The minister thought that it would be better to build only one ship. First, you can be skilled in craftsmen, and second, you can leave an opportunity for the improvement of the next one. The two are built at the same time, and the second one can only be exactly the same as the first one. What's new? I can’t carry on anymore.”

The Minister of Industry Shangshu Yuyu came out and said: "The minister seconded, Mr. Zhou said that the craftsmanship, practice makes perfect, if you build two ships at the same time, the income will not be as large as that of only one."

Li Qing was a little dumbfounded, Dong Cheng's had no problem, but Zhou Yuan's words seemed quite right.

So the question is, whether it’s better to build one or two?
