For a time, more than ten commands and imperial edicts were sent out of the city in the Great Song Dynasty.

After Zhong Jian, Lu Xiufu and Su Liuyi left the imperial study room, Zhao Dongting pondered again, and then asked Li Goudan to bring the Minister of Military Science and Technology Xu Yuesong and the Minister of Military Industry to Xuan in the imperial study room.

Over the years, the Ministry of Military Industry has been stepping up its rush to manufacture arms for the Western Xia, and after creating arms for the major imperial guards and defenders.

This was not really hasty.

Because the Song Dynasty only had arms in the whole world, Zhao Dongting had enough confidence to be invincible. It was not a big deal to buy arms of each army later.

But now the Yuan Dynasty has probably mastered the method of forging firearms, and it seems that it has been forged a lot in secret, so Zhao Dongting undoubtedly felt a little urgent.

In the future, confrontation with the Yuan army will not only be the consumption of the soldiers. When both sides have firearms, the firearms will inevitably be depleted a lot.

Now there is no reserved arms in the Song Dynasty, which of course is not possible.

Just imagine, if the soldiers in front were exhausted from ammunition and food, but there was no ammunition behind them and the arms were transported up, what would the result be?

As soon as the two of them entered the imperial study, Zhao Dongting told Xu Yuesong about the matter of Western Xia and Tubo, and then said: "The two armies are in conflict, and food is the most important, and the same is true for weapons. Our dynasty may start a full-scale war with the Yuan Dynasty. The tasks of the two dear ministers, the Military Science Department, and the Military Industry Department are very heavy! The research of the Military Science Department has made some progress in recent years. I felt that it was not necessary to use it before, so I did not let you forge the improved arms. Now, I work together to forge the improved Shenlong gun at the fastest speed. Five percent of the weapons forged by workshops in various places have been reserved, and the other 50% are directly allocated to the imperial guards and defenders until the entire armament is fully equipped."

In the past, he didn't want to flood the firearms, so he always controlled and controlled the firearms of the major imperial guards of the Song Dynasty. But now, Zhao Dongting undoubtedly couldn't care about so much.

As long as the major imperial guards are still loyal, even if they have enough firearms, they will not cause any trouble. However, if the major imperial guards still hold swords and guns, they may suffer a great loss in the future when facing the fully armed Yuan army.

Zhao Dongting really didn't know when the Yuan Dynasty got the firearm manufacturing technology. He didn't know how many arms the Yuan Dynasty now had.

The only thing that is certain is that even if the entire army is equipped with arms, it will not be much worse.

Because he put himself in his shoes, if he was real gold, he would never help Daxia without being fully prepared and expose his minions to Dasong.

Because no one is a fool.

Zhao Dongting could imagine it with his butt. Since the real gold was dispatched to Luo Tuo, he must have the confidence to be not afraid of the Song Dynasty.

The current Yuan Dynasty must have the strength to compete with the Song Dynasty.

In this case, if the new types of arms improved by the Ministry of Military Science and Technology were not created, the Song Dynasty might never have the chance to forge these new types of arms again.

After two moves to Zhao Dongting, Xu Yuesong and the others quickly left the imperial study room and left.

Zhao Dongting still frowned in the imperial study room.

Although the Ministry of Military Industry has made improvements to the arms, due to the limitations of this era of technology, the power has not been greatly improved.

It is unrealistic to use these improved arms alone to create sufficient advantages for the Yuan army.

If you want to win, you can only study a stronger arms.

Afterwards, Zhao Dongting just wrote several letters, Xuan came to Yi Shiyu and asked him to send them out, and then took Li Goudan to the workshop of the Military Science Department again.

He was not so anxious about studying artillery, but now he feels quite imminent.

Perhaps the appearance of artillery a day earlier will cause countless losses to the army.

Only those technical difficulties can be overcome.

A few days after that.

There were various documents and orders from Changsha City to pass them to military regions, defenders and government offices in various departments.

The territory of the Song Dynasty was in full swing, far from being described as undercurrents.

Those cities not far from Changsha City were the first to post notices on purchasing grain from the people.

There were officials from the government office, and yamen runners surrounded the city gate, and many defenders surrounded them.

Here they set up stalls for purchasing grain, gold, silver, copper plates and silver banknotes, and stacks of boxes were stacked on one piece.

Some boxes have been opened, and the golden light is very dazzling in the sun.

The people carrying the load lined up and exchanged their food and supplies for their property.

Many families only leave the food they eat.

This is not only the fair price of grain purchased by the Song Dynasty court, but also because the people's hearts are towards the court.

Although the people still do not know that there might be a war coming, they still choose to spare no effort to help the court.

Some people even don’t even want gold and silver after sending food and grass. They also talked about the fact that many families had received help from government offices and military forces in the past.

Only these officials who purchased food still stuffed their property into their hands.

An official smiled and said, "Food is the heaven of the people, and the country is the heaven of the people. The emperor has the will first, and we cannot take any advantage of you."

This moved many people again.

It was a blessing for the people of the Song Dynasty to have such an emperor.

And when these things gradually spread, more and more people from all over the country came to deliver food.

There are scenes of crowds at the gates of each city.

There are cities stationed by imperial guards in various places in Shuzhong, Dali and other military regions.

The workshops of the Ministry of Military Industry are also in full swing.

Many craftsmen are bare-armed and sweat profusely even in such cold weather.

The Ministry of Military Industry has ordered workshops in various places to rush to manufacture the improved arms as quickly as possible, and also set up a reward and punishment system.

Whether these craftsmen are patriotic or seeking personal gain, they are working hard without any surprises.

Chengdu Prefecture, Sichuan.

A flying pigeon landed in Chengdu Prefecture.

Then a soldier hurriedly ran to the place where Zhang Guangbao was working in the military region with his letter.

This letter is naturally an imperial decree that Zhao Dongting put a seal on.

After seeing the letter, Zhang Guangbao did not dare to hesitate. He immediately passed several military orders and went to the imperial guards in various parts of Shu.

He still knew the movements of Tubo. He only had no hesitation at Zhao Dongting's will.

Zhao Dongting's prestige in the army was too high, which even made the generals of each army blindly obey him.

Zhang Guangbao didn't even think about what would happen if the Tubo soldiers came to kill. He only knew that since the emperor asked him to lead his army to fight, he must have a way to deal with the Tubo soldiers.

For a time, the major imperial guards in Shuzhong moved.

Since Zhang Guangbao asked Zheng Yihang and the others to prepare for the war a few days ago, Zheng Yihang and others were actually a little eager to try.

After all, the Song Dynasty had been stable for a while. Perhaps the civil officials enjoyed this situation very much, but generals like Zheng Yihang might not adapt.

They all came out of the battle with Zhao Dongting, and they were used to fighting on the battlefield. They had no war for a long time. Just like the martial artist Xu didn't take action for a long time, they would inevitably feel itchy.

As Zhang Guangbao's military order reached the various armies, Zheng Yihang and Batumi hurriedly led their troops to gather towards Chengdu Prefecture.

In Shuzhong, there were long dragon-like imperial guards marching on several major official roads.

The army has countless food and grass.

Flags flutter.

When the people passing by saw this scene, they all felt surprised and puzzled by the side of the road.

However, no one showed panic on his face.

It seems that they are not worried about fighting again. This is because they have full confidence in the court and the imperial guards.

The invincible imperial guards of the Song Dynasty in recent years not only made the Central Plains countries scare, but also made the people in the Song Dynasty have unparalleled trust in them.

With the imperial guards here, the people will not suffer.

With the imperial guards there, no matter how many enemy troops are, they will be wiped out.

With the imperial guards here, the Song Dynasty was invincible.

This idea has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
