The Deputy Envoy of Sanqi existed in Zhao Zhen's memory. Wang Shao was a very wise scholar and one of the few people who could take charge of the army among the Song Dynasty. Because of his strange military strategy, he won extraordinary victory, and because of his extraordinary rewards, he advanced to the position of Deputy Envoy of Privy Councilor, so he later called him the Deputy Envoy of Sanqi.

Of course, he is still a young man who is just showing his strength. His talent can be seen from the unexpected conversation between him and Zhao Xiaowu.

A person who makes good use of strange strategies will definitely not be rigid and fixed in thinking, otherwise he will not know how to achieve surprise victory without flexibility?

Zhao Zhen ignored Sancai's doubts and asked this guy to guess! The more he explained, the more he was confused. Since he came to Dasong, he said many wrong things, but in the end he was left alone. No one would ask the bottom line, but the more he explained, the more loopholes he had explained.

He gently opened the booklet, and the first sentence on it made Zhao Zhen unable to move his eyes.

"The strength of the Great Song Dynasty is not the result of Your Majesty alone, but the result of each China for all generations!"

This sentence is directly pointing to the original heart. Although it is not something the king likes to hear, it is indeed an indisputable fact. Zhao Zhen nodded slightly. It is true that the power of the Song Dynasty was not created by himself. The Song Dynasty also inherited the system of the previous dynasty.

"However, the revival of the Song Dynasty was actually the act of Your Majesty. It sets an unprecedented precedent, creates materials, raises military affairs, promotes merchants, and sets up schools. This is a matter of twice the result with half the effort. I, the Song Dynasty, gets wealth, wisdom, and wins the world!"

The following words were quite pertinent. Obviously, Wang Shao didn't know that his article would be seen by the emperor. This was quite credible, and Zhao Zhen couldn't help but feel a little complacent in his heart.

The court officials would tell the truth and compliment them, but they were all more formal. In private, the court officials rarely cater to the emperor's words, and even took pride in scolding the emperor to prove that they were a loyal minister.

Of course, this is just a way to restrict imperial power. Moreover, the court officials in the Song Dynasty were like this. Not only were they brave, but they were not afraid of death. If the king wanted to blame him, then the unlucky one was not the minister, but the emperor...

Zhao Zhen read it with relish. Wang Shao's essay is of great significance. There are many of his views. If it is placed in the court, it will definitely cause an uproar, but it also allows Zhao Zhen to see his talents.

The most eye-catching points almost all agree with Zhao Zhen’s future governance direction.

Especially in military affairs, many useful suggestions were mentioned in the booklet, and it is not difficult to see that he had a great interest in the application of muskets. He was very close to Zhang Zhou in tactical thinking, but it was different.

The article mentioned that the utilization rate of a major killer weapon of musket should be greatly improved, but we must never give up cold weapons. We should use them together with shields, knives and spears as before, but we should use them instead of ratchet crossbows to become an indispensable part of the military formation, rather than the existence of a single army.

Wang Shao believes that only in this way can the maximum power of the musket be exerted, and at the same time, he cooperates with the military formation to strangle the invading enemy, and can attack and defend, and be invincible!

He and Zhang Zhou had different ideas, but they were more reliable. After all, it was obviously impossible to change all the troops of the Song Dynasty, but some of the changes were easy and the cost was not too high.

From this point of view, Wang Shao considered it more comprehensively than Zhang Zhou, and he could also see the issue of logistics support.

The carriage swayed slightly, which means that it had arrived at the palace. Zhao Zhen closed the booklet in his hand. This Wang Shaoduan was interesting. Another talent was available. There was no shortage of military generals in the court, but there were no capable generals.

At present, Di Qing is one, Yang Huaiyu and Shi Yuansun are of the same level. As for his confidants, Peng Qi, Li Jiu and Zhao Li...... He has the will but lacks the strength!

These three people all came from the three princes and guards. Needless to say, they were loyal to themselves. All the guards of the palace and the front guards of the palace Zhao Zhen were handed over to them, but in the war, Zhao Zhen knew their weight.

It still depends on some generals with outstanding abilities to lead the army. Wang Shao and Zhang Zhou are undoubtedly good generals, which solved Zhao Zhen's urgent need.

The palace gate of Donghua Gate opened, and the carriage slowly entered it. All the imperial guards on the city gate had been replaced with muskets made by Gan Yu for two years. Relying on defense, they could kill the invading enemy most effectively...

Although it is impossible for anyone to attack the palace now, as a guard, the most well-equipped weapons are undoubtedly available.

Today, Tiangongfang and his team gave Zhao Zhen a lot of gains. The reform of the research on things, the discovery of Wang Shao, a rare talent, and the goodbye Zhao Xiaowu, these things gave him a great impression.

Since no one knows what the future will be, try to do the best of the present. Wang Shao’s thinking is a way of thinking about war, and so is Zhang Zhou’s. Since that’s the case, why not let both of them try?

This idea emerged back and forth in Zhao Zhen’s mind and was never gone.

Wang Shao’s tactical level is unknown, but it can be seen from his essays. As for Zhang Zhou... his strength can be seen in the battle outside Liaoyang City, and Zhao Zhen has also seen his memorials.

Then start with Zhang Zhou!

It is natural that he could change all the muskets of the Divine Guards, so he would build an army that was mainly composed of muskets, supplemented by heavy cavalry and Modao Hands. As for the other things like shield soldiers, spearmen, jumping soldiers, knives, crossbows, etc., they would be removed!

This is an extremely bold experiment, and I can only try it in the troops led by Zhang Zhou. Traditional generals must firmly oppose it.

After being built in Gan Yu in the second year, Zhao Zhen has already understood the speed and power of this musket, and its accuracy is quite good. What else can I say when I go to the target for 200 meters?

In Zhao Zhen's mind, an army dominated by muskets has always been his goal, but now it is suddenly going to be realized, a little faster. I wonder if this era is ready to go from cold weapons to hot weapons.

However, there is a first time in everything, and the Song Dynasty is far ahead, so Zhao Zhen can conduct "experiments" unscrupulously. His country has a very high "fault tolerance". He is not afraid of failure, but he is afraid of not even the courage to try it.

After passing through the huge imperial road of the palace, Sancai pushed open the gate of the imperial study room with force. As soon as a crack was leaked, Xiao Dezi rushed in. With the creaking sound of the palace door, the lights in the imperial study room also lit up.

"Three talents, grind ink."

"I obey the order!"

From the beginning, Sancai felt something was wrong. Since he left the Tiangongfang official family, something was wrong. How could he not know after following Zhao Zhen for so many years?

But Zhao Zhen's will was beyond his expectations.

The 30,000 branches were built in two years, and this number almost scared Sancai's eyes. He had asked the imperial city officials for more than 100 branches. This time, the official family suddenly became generous, and there were 30,000 branches at once, which was worth three million coins.
