0374 year

It's another cold winter day. As the end of the year approaches, the military aircraft office is also much busier.

At the end of the year, according to the imperial system, a number of military and political officials from various provinces and counties have been invited to Beijing to report on their duties. The eighth princess An Yixue, who was in charge of receiving the meeting, had no air and sat down to talk casually to show her unrestrained, from the training of money, grain, military and horses, to the salaries of officials, from preparing for ploughing and repairing canals, to bidding for the opening of ports, and Local customs, religious beliefs, etc., the sea and the sky are boundless, like family-like night talk, and even high monks and scholars are also received during it. Poetry, calligraphy and painting style, snow and moon are all about.

The fourteenth princess Angel saw that the generals and military officials of the "Government Affairs Department" were silent and busy. No one was free, but they were busy but not chaotic and orderly. Looking at the lounge in the side hall, there are still many people waiting to be seen. In addition to the occasional whispers of several monks and secular leaders in strange clothes, the military attaché sat upright. Although the soup and tea in the room are all available, and even tobacco is prepared, the military officers sit like clay statue Bodhisattva without smoking. The tea is silent, and even the civil officials are solemn. Occasionally, they eat snacks, order soup and tea, and return to their original position immediately. They never whisper, and there is silence in the waiting side hall.

Angel, the fourteenth princess, did not know the rules here. She thought that she should also wait in the side hall, so she stepped into the side hall. The military officers in the hall immediately stood up and bowed with their chests. The fourteenth princess Angel's class was higher than them. Although these military officers came from different resident legions, According to the military law, he should salute himself; while the civilian officials bowed, and the fourteenth princess Angel also returned the salute one by one and was in a hurry. At this time, there was a "military aircraft office" who was ordered to come and ask the fourteenth princess to sit in the warm pavilion.

In the wide and bright warm pavilion, the charcoal of the stove burns red and warm. Around the stove, several princesses of the An Dynasty sitting in the imperial capital took the little hands of the 14th princess Angel and chatted happily. The sisters were said to have cheerful laughter and a hot posture.

In the warm pavilion of the "Military Office", in addition to Her Royal Highness Princess An Moran, there are also a set of golden branches and jade leaves of the An Dynasty, such as the third princess An Yinger, the fourth princess An Xiaorao, the eighth princess An Yixue, and the tenth princess An Dudu.

Although Her Royal Highness Princess An Moran talked about military and political affairs with these people, from time to time, the staff of the "Cabinet" and the "Military and Machinery Office" handed in hand folding notes to ask for instructions. Some talked about the adjustment, some said garrison, some said military equipment, and some were supplies, which were the same.

"Military and arms are now supervised by the 'Armor Bureau' affiliated to the Ministry of Military Affairs. The gunpowder used to open mines and firearms and guns in the Beiku have been damaged by moisture. Although they have been dried, their explosive power is also weaker than before. People below the director and above have delinquished their duties and have been punished according to the law. This is transferred to the 'Ministry of Military Affairs' for archiving. Princess Regent An Moran dictated to the officials of the "Ministry of Civil Affairs" waiting in front of the seat.

Eight Princess An Yixue smiled and said: "Now the 'Ministry of Civil Affairs' is too broad, including river canals, water conservancy, ponds and weir, coastal defense, city gates, ship administration, mining and metallurgy, workshops, such as reclamation, construction, repair, firewood charcoal, bridges, ferry ports, fishing and hunting, river transportation, boating, workshops, casting money-national vein of people's livelihood, but trivial skin, but The word 'people' is connected with the 'Ministry of Civil Affairs'. Mr. Gu is now transporting rivers, canals, farmland water conservancy, and urban buildings. They should be trivial and have to take care of them all. I'm afraid it's difficult to take care of them.

"Ha ha," Princess Ann Moran smiled and said, "This 'Ministry of Civil Affairs' is indeed too broad. Well, it's time to revise the "Ministry of Civil Affairs" regulations.

Princess An Moran, the regent, explained a few sentences to the fourteenth princess Angel, who was not familiar with the functions of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, and immediately continued:

"Seeing that the end of the year is getting closer and closer, from today, the soldiers in the major camp will have New Year's rice noodles, meat and vegetables, fruits and vegetables, fish eggs, quilts, Spring Festival couplets, ordnance munitions, pills to prevent frostbite and diarrhea, grease gloves for cold and heating, firewood, coal and other things, as well as disabled soldiers and families in distress. For the difficult military family and widows and orphans, all provinces and ministries should prepare as soon as possible and instruct the relevant departments to prepare a roster to report it. On the one hand, the "Supervision Section" belonging to the Military Machinery Department should verify the roster as soon as possible, and on the other hand, the Pension Asset Management Office should draw up a summary of the approximate amount of money needed to be transferred. Transportation, the procurement and purchase that should be purchased; and the officials of various government departments, the New Year's goods bonus should be prepared early. Don't be afraid to spend money. These two sides can't save much, so don't be frugal. In a word, we must have a good year and be safe and happy.

Princess Amolan said that the clerk in charge of the record was also finished. When the transcription became formal *, Moran was correct, he could stamp it and sign it and send it to the office of various departments.

While everyone was talking, there was a sudden cheering outside, which was extremely rare in the serious and tense "military aircraft office".

"All the princesses are overjoyed, and Saibei reported the victory! General Leihei, the tenth master and the twelfth brother took Qiang City! Xiqiang's victory!" When everyone was wondering, Sheyue came in with a smile and announced the good news, which also revealed the reason for the noise outside.

Princess An Moran took over the good news document and was silent.

In fact, Her Royal Highness Princess An Moran has already learned about this news through the top-secret telegram of the northern camp, and she deliberately wanted to surprise everyone. After reading Lei Hei's good news, what he thought was that his own brother An Xiao, his 12th brother, suffered a lot of casualties on his side. The "Black Eagle Legion" shouted at the critical juncture of killing prisoners and venting his anger. He did not hold it, but tried his best to exclude public opinion. The eldest princess appreciated this point very much. It seems that she, her younger brother, Wu Xia Amon is no longer the former, but now he has grown into a useful and independent general. In addition to his satisfaction, he said, "Xiqiang will go down immediately, and then set up a county to guard the soil. There are many trivial matters and various details. The 'Military Affairs Office' should discuss with the cabinet as soon as possible and send elite personnel to take over."

Put down the good news in her hand, Her Royal Highness Princess An Moran did not have much joy, and her worries seemed to be deeper. She said, "What I am worried about is another thing."

The fourteenth princess Angelqi said, "Take Xiqiang, and the old thief Slin will help. What else is there to worry about?"

"What I am worried about is whether there will be enough food to eat next year, and more than 10 million people will be stuffed. In addition, there are more than 1 million wolves. One army will be at least three people. If you consume beans, wheat and corn to feed horses, a horse can consume at least five mouthfuls of food. There will be about 20 to 30 million mouthfuls to eat. Hungry is a big problem. Although the bean and wheat forage consumed by this war horse is mostly in winter and spring, it cannot be sloppy. Next year, the horse grain reserve will be pre-storaged from now on. The former fourth master said that the horse grain reserve will increase by 30% compared with previous years. The meaning of this palace is that it is better to have more than less. God, who knows what he will be next year? Horse grain pre-storage should be 50% higher than in previous years. With so many military and civilian men, horses and livestock, it is a great deal to have a mouth. Once there is a shortage of food, the military ambition is slack, and the hearts of the people are unstable, you should not neglect it.

The fourth princess An Xiaorao agreed: "From now on, we have to raise food from many parties, eat horses, and deal with war and relief. If you prepare a few more hands, there will be really no urgent difficulties. We also have the confidence to deal with it.

"In addition, up to now, there has been a counter-customer-oriented trend. It may not be long before Slin's old Pifu will end the first award. More and more prisoners of war are driven from all over the fortress and migrated to the interior of the empire. I think that the Western camp needs to be planned in advance. If a large number of prisoners of prisoners of war and slaves die of cold and starvation, they can't do it. Ha ha, they can't do various hard work such as roads, such as roads, canals, wasteland and mining. With this batch of prisoners and slaves, the empire will be strong and labor. The disadvantages can be greatly alleviated. Later, a large number of prisoners of war slaves have arrived one after another, and the military aircraft office and the cabinet will not be able to live in peace, and they will be very busy. The eighth princess An Yixue said with a smile.

Princess Regent An Moran shook her head and sighed, "There is no other way but to grit her teeth. Now the empire is full of things, and there are a lot of things in Mobei. Seeing that there are a lot of busy and endless things coming from Sisi and Tiannan, and now there are tens of thousands of prisoners of war slaves. It's just that this manpower still has to be increased, and it's not very difficult to divide power and responsibility. Who let the wolves under his father's command be plagiarized one by one?

When the sisters heard this, they all laughed.

At this time, outside the imperial capital, it was almost dusk, and Chang Santai, a great tycoon of Kanto, galloped along the imperial post road.

Although the "Wolf Capital" usually closes the gate at the beginning of the second update, if there is a military order of the "City Defense Department", it may close the suspension bridge as soon as it starts. He doesn't want to wait for a night outside the city tonight, which will mislead the master.

In the eyes of ordinary imperial civilians, Chang Santai, who specializes in selling animal skins in the city, is a rich and righteous local rich man, and a big businessman with long sleeves and good dance, that's all.

And some people who know a little about Chang Santai know that behind Chang Santai, there is actually a force that he relies on as an Austrian aid, the "Black Water School" in Kanto.

As one of the important martial arts schools in Kanto, the momentum of the "Black Water School" is unparallable. Chang Santai is actually one of the important tasks in the "Black Water School", and its status is quite high.

Chang Santai himself often travels around in Kanto, working hard for sect affairs, business matters, and difficult to stop, but who knows that there is another mask under his mask?

Chang Santai finally breathed a sigh of relief after rushing through the city gate.

Half an hour later, Chang Santai crossed half of the capital and appeared in front of a bathhouse.

Chang Santai did not hesitate to get into the bathhouse, go up the marble steps, push open the carved door of the attic, and walk into the attic in a familiar way.

The hall in the pavilion is magnificent, doors, windows, tables, chairs, and several screens are full of ancient meaning, and several axes of pen and ink are hung on the wall. The night wind is silky and slightly cool. Chang Santai sits alone in the attic and drinks slowly, which is very comfortable.

Suddenly, he felt a gloomy atmosphere approaching, as if he wanted to peep.

The fierceness shot out of his eyes. Between his hands, Chang Santai had already had several small blue daggers under his hand and looked around warily, but there was no abnormality.

In addition to doubts, Chang Santai was more vigilant. Years of caution had made him avoid many murders and returned to the attic. Suddenly, he saw a woman standing on the edge of the round tea table.

At a fixed look, the muscles are condensed with ice and snow, and the bright light shines around, curling like the wind and shaking willows, but she is a rare beauty.

"Huh? Ye Ningxiang, what's wrong with you?" Chang Santai blurted out.

"Brother Chang, I haven't seen you for a few years. Isn't it that you have been raised and well-been for a long time, and you don't recognize my little sister, the ugly girl?" The beautiful Ye Ningxiang sneered.

Chang Santai shook his head and said, "My little sister laughed. How's the prince?"

Ye Ningxiang covered her mouth and smiled and said charmingly, "Mr. Huo came to me this time to see how it is now to encourage * everywhere in Kanto?"

Chang Santai said: "Now, after the instigation of the stupid brother, a large number of craftsmen, students, vendors, farmers, merchants, workshop owners and coal kiln owners have been encouraged, and the secret gatherings are in full swing. Not surprisingly, they will launch the general* on New Year's Eve!"

"Okay, the prince really saw you right." Ye Ning Xianglang smiled and said, "Our 'Heavenly Demon Sect' Huozhou headquarters will give you the greatest support. Brother, please let go and make the 'wolves' as chaotic as possible. Hahaha-----"

"Hahaha-"
