Become a feudal king from today
Chapter 59 Military Supplies
"Your Highness..."
The group of people suddenly became nervous. read
Xu Lie said: "Your Highness, you and Liu Wangfu will return to the city immediately, and the general will go to investigate."
After saying that, Xu Lie led a hundred guards and rode away without caring about life or death.
"Your Highness, let's go quickly. I will be insignificant after death. If Your Highness has any shortcomings, Yan County will never have peace again." Liu Fu whipped Zhao Xu hard and sat down on his horse.
Before Zhao Xu could say anything, the horse rushed out carrying him.
Liu Fu patted his horse and followed.
When such a large number of soldiers and horses suddenly appeared in the wilderness, no one could be careless.
The two of them were galloping and looked back.
Xu Lie's men and horses were seen blocking the team.
Immediately, Xu Lie brought people back.
Seeing this scene, they breathed a sigh of relief, and it seemed like nothing was wrong.
Immediately, they stopped and waited for Xu Lie.
"Your Highness, this is General Mo from Yanguan. He came to Yan County to pay homage to His Highness." Xu Lie's eyes flashed with excitement.
They had great respect for this veteran since they were in the Imperial Army.
He and Chang Wei also knew that Mo Zhai was now stationed at Yanguan.
Before Zhao Xu's brain disease healed, they even privately discussed going to join the general.
"Mo Zhai." Zhao Xu breathed a sigh of relief.
This General Mo Zhai can be said to be a staunch royalist.
Every generation of Mohist disciples is in the Dasong Army, fighting for the royal family in all directions.
But why did this general suddenly appear in Yan County? He couldn't help but feel a little strange.
But now that people are here, he can only receive them.
Driving his horse north, he quickly saw Mo Zhai's team clearly.
Among them, a veteran who was over fifty years old took the lead and looked majestic. He was probably Mo Zhai.
Behind Mo Zhai were more than five hundred cavalrymen, all wearing red linings and black armor.
"The last general, Mo Zhai, has met His Highness King Yan."
When he got close, Mo Zhai dismounted and bowed to Zhao Xu on one knee.
Zhao Xu immediately dismounted and helped him up.
Compared with Yuan Li's arrogance last time, Mo Zhai's respect for him can be seen from the two people's different attitudes towards the royal family.
"I have heard about General Mo's name for a long time. I wish I could meet him. I am very pleased that General Mo is here today." Zhao Xu looked Mo Zhai up and down.
Mo Zhai was also looking at Zhao Xu.
Seeing Zhao Xu's thoughtfulness and sharp words, he couldn't help but nodded slightly.
This King Yan is really no different from an ordinary person.
In his opinion, this is also a blessing for the royal family.
The emperor was disgusted and sent the son to Yan County.
Unexpectedly, I planted willows unintentionally, and the willows became shade.
The ninth prince not only recovered from his illness, but also took root in Yan County.
"How can a general with such stupid talent be praised by His Highness?" Mo Zhai cupped his hands, "I came to bother Your Highness today, but I have something to ask of Your Highness."
"Oh?" Zhao Xu looked confused.
He asked how could Mo Zhai run from Yanguan to Yanjun.
But he didn't know what the general wanted?
Seeing that the sky was getting dark, he said apologetically: "It's not appropriate to talk in detail here. General, it's better to enter the city and let me show my kindness as a landlord."
"Then thank you, Your Highness." Mo Zhai mounted his horse and the group followed Zhao Xu into the city.
When they arrived at the palace, Zhao Xu ordered Feng'er to send his servants to hold a banquet.
At this time, Chang Wei learned that Mo Zhai had arrived at the palace.
Regardless of the injuries on his body, he came to see you.
"Chang Wei, you are here too." Everyone sat down, and Mo Zhai was slightly surprised to see Chang Wei coming over.
Chang Wei saluted Mo Zhai, "The general can remember the last general, it is really the last general's luck."
Mo Zhai laughed loudly, "Remember, remember, when you were in Xiliang, you were famous for risking your life in battles. It's just a pity that you are not under my command, otherwise you would have a place in Yanguan today."
Mo Zhai's words brought back Chang Wei's memories, and he sighed: "Now that he is under the command of His Highness, the general is satisfied. This may be the loss of Sangyu and the gain of Dongyu."
Hearing this, Mo Zhai stroked his beard and nodded with a smile.
Zhao Xu smiled and asked: "I wonder what the general has to say when he comes to Yan County this time. Is it because of the autumn hunting in Beidi?"
Apart from this incident, he could not think of the purpose of Mo Zhai's coming.
Mo Zhai shook his head and said bluntly: "No, I came here this time to seek medicine."
After that, he told the story of Hu Yan's disciples going to Yanguan.
Zhao Xu suddenly realized.
I didn't expect that borrowing medicine to Hu Yan would cause such a thing.
"The reason why I came here this time is for this medicine. If it is indeed effective, I would like to add this medicine to this military supply list and purchase a batch from His Highness." Mo Zhai said seriously.
"Military supplies?" These two words made Zhao Xu's heart tremble.
Due to constant wars in Dasong every year, Dasong's annual military expenditures have skyrocketed.
Naturally, a lot of money was spent on military supplies.
However, this kind of rich oil and water is rarely available to ordinary people.
In the end, most of them were taken away by merchants under powerful clans.
Now, Mo Zhai came to the door in person and delivered a purchase of military supplies, which naturally surprised him.
After all, he only came up with the allicin to save Chang Wei, and it could be used by his army in the future. He never thought of selling it.
Because medicine is not as easy to promote as alcohol and the like.
But it would be different if a famous general like Mo Zhai stood up.
Once this medicine is guaranteed to be effective in the military, I am afraid it will soon become a necessity for Dasong's army.
At that time, money was not pouring into his pocket.
Most importantly, this gave him an opening in military supplies.
If he can sell medicine now, he can also sell other things in the future.
Moreover, once it is determined to be effective in the military, there will naturally be no problem among the people, and the market will take effect invisibly.
After thinking about this, Zhao Xu could hardly suppress his joy.
He said: "To be honest with what the general said, Chang Wei was hit by three arrows from the Beidi cavalry a few days ago. It was this magic medicine that saved him."
At this juncture, he began to endorse his medicine.
"Really?" Mo Zhai looked at Chang Wei.
"That's true." Chang Wei glanced at Zhao Xu gratefully, "Without King Yan's secret medicine, the general would have been in hell."
Mo Zhai nodded slowly. Li Xingjian's nephew was there before, and now Chang Wei testified, so he basically believed most of it.
However, he has always been cautious, after all, this matter involves military supplies.
If something goes wrong, someone might want to impeach him.
"This general will bring more than thirty wounded soldiers. If your highness can save half of them, your highness will take this medicine." Mo Zhai looked directly at Zhao Xu.
When returning to the palace, Zhao Xu saw some soldiers riding on the same horse.
The soldiers in the back were tied to the soldiers in the front. These were probably the wounded soldiers.
"Okay." Zhao Xu agreed.
After a banquet, Zhao Xu and others did not drink too much because of the drug test.
After eating, we went directly to the yard where the wounded soldiers were.
Zhao Xu then asked people to bring alcohol and allicin, and called Hu Langzhong to participate personally.
"Cut off the rotten flesh, wash it with strong alcohol, apply the secret medicine on it, and take some more."
In the open space in the west courtyard of the palace, thirty wounded soldiers groaned, and each of them was seriously injured.
After seeing these thirty people, he shook his head helplessly.
Mo Zhai is posing a problem for him.
"General Mo, if these thirty people had used my king's strong wine to clean their wounds from the beginning, and then used this secret medicine internally and externally, they would have been able to go back to the battlefield a long time ago. Why would they end up like this?" Zhao Xu lamented.
This is the horrific casualty rate in ancient times, and the sanitary conditions were too poor.
Mo Zhai was speechless, but when he saw that Zhao Xu was treating the wounded soldiers, it didn't look like he was cheating.
He felt more confident.
