"Zhiruo, you're here." Emperor Xuanwu smiled.
Emperor Xuanwu's title for Wu Zhe has been fixed as [Zhiruo] without the presence of outsiders, which seems very close.
"My minister Zhou Zhiruo has met the emperor." Wu Zhe bowed and saluted.
Wu Zhe was very happy that he could not bow down to the king. Otherwise, even if you know in your heart that you want to do as the Romans do, you still feel uncomfortable.
It's just that being called Zhiruo by the Xuanwu Emperor is far less pleasant to Wu Zhe's ears than Princess Qing or the Master of Yuanxi Palace.
Emperor Xuanwu asked a few words about enlightenment, and after complimenting him, he brought up the main topic: "Zhiruo, I am considering letting you take over some military affairs recently, would you like to give it a try?"
Naturally, this military affairs has gone beyond the scope of the command of the Xuanwu female general, but involves strategic command, military material scheduling and other content.
As an undercover agent, it is natural that you are very welcome to touch military affairs with your own hands. But the so-called haste makes waste, the more excellent an undercover agent is, the more he cannot easily agree at this time.
"Military affairs? I wonder what kind of military affairs the emperor is referring to?" Wu Zhe asked.
"Naturally, it's the transfer of military resources."
"Ah? I don't want to lead troops to kill the enemy?" Wu Zhe looked eager to try.
Emperor Xuanwu smiled and said: "After all, you have only been in power for a short time, and you have no military career, so you are still not suitable for direct command of the army."
"I can't lead troops into battle, I'm not very interested." Wu Zhe spread his hands.
"Girl, it's not a question of whether you're interested." Emperor Xuanwu's expression darkened. Of course, this was just for show, even if Wu Zhe really refused from the beginning to the end, Emperor Xuanwu would not force her to work.
After all, she is now a very important think tank. During the surprise attack, Emperor Xuanwu really seriously considered bringing her by his side to make suggestions. Because for this female think tank with many intrigues, Emperor Xuanwu felt that her characteristics were quite suitable for operations such as surprise attacks.
"Then... I want to raise horses for fun." Wu Zhe said suddenly.
"Huh? Raising horses?" Emperor Xuanwu was taken aback.
This thinking span is too large. Asking you to deploy military resources, what does it have to do with raising horses
"In fact, there is no war today, even if the emperor arranges for the young girl to transfer military funds, it is considered overkill." Wu Zhe said cheekily.
She is the only one who can speak like this in front of Emperor Xuanwu. Not only is it full of bragging charm, but also full of bargaining momentum.
"Overkill?" Emperor Xuanwu looked at her with a smile.
Wu Zhe used to retreat before, saying: "I want to ask the emperor to arrange for me to give me a thousand horses. I want to do a little experiment."
"Experiment?" Emperor Xuanwu was curious.
"As the commander of a Xuanwu female general, I feel that it is necessary to further enhance the combat effectiveness of the Xuanwu female general." Wu Zhe explained: "Has the emperor noticed that although the Xuanwu soldiers are commanded by female generals to coordinate operations, most of the soldiers fight on foot. If you fight on horseback, will it be difficult to give full play to the full advantages of Xuanwu soldiers?"
The Xuanwu Emperor naturally understood: "This is because the Xuanwu soldiers have difficulty coordinating the horses. Although the soldiers are commanded by female generals, the soldiers' reactions on the horses will be a bit slower, and they will not be able to fully exert the combat power of the Xuanwu soldiers."
"What the emperor said is very true. I studied for many days and felt that since people can become basalt soldiers, why can't horses become basalt war horses?" Wu Zhe said seriously: "So I want to try to inlaid basalt crystals on war horses."
"..." Emperor Xuanwu pondered for a moment: "Zhiruo, do you know that this kind of idea has been thought of before, but all of them have failed?"
"Their failure doesn't mean I can't succeed." Wu Zhe said: "So I plan to use a thousand horses to test. If it doesn't work, it means losing a thousand horses. I don't know if the emperor can afford this loss? "
"Don't come here and use aggressive methods against me." Emperor Xuanwu smiled and said, "Why can't I afford the capital of a thousand war horses? It doesn't matter if I allocate three thousand or five thousand horses to you."
"You don't need that much, and it's useless if you have too much. Instead, it takes effort to manage it." Wu Zhe said: "I also ask the emperor to send enough horsemen and supplies for horse enclosures, etc., and I will make arrangements in detail."
"Xiao Pengzi, draw up the decree." Emperor Xuanwu ordered Chief Peng to draft the decree: "I ordered Zhou Zhiruo to be the deputy of the Imperial Horse Supervisor and Bi Mawen. All horses, supplies, and manpower are available for him to use at will; the basalt spar below the third level of the Ministry of Internal Affairs Let it choose and use; Mingma Valley, three miles east of Wudu City, is the land under its jurisdiction, and it cannot be used for other purposes within three years. Garrison the garrison. Collaborate and do it cheaply."
Good fellow, the three decrees in a row are all authorized by Zhou Zhiruo. It even directly designated a valley for Zhou Zhiruo to do research, and it lasted for three years. Manager Peng was amazed.
Mingma Valley is a large valley formed by mountains, which used to be the hunting place of high-ranking royal officials. Then the mountain range has already been built into a place similar to a wild pasture.
It is now allocated to Wu Zhe for research. But let her occupy a good place. It is definitely a geomantic treasure to put horses there for research.
In fact, why did Wu Zhe need three years. If it can be researched by relying on the evolutionary organism, it will take a few months at most, and no amount of time will be beneficial to the research.
Manager Peng glanced at Wu Zhe, but saw that she had a weird expression.
Emperor Xuanwu also noticed: "Zhiruo, do you think there is something wrong?"
In fact, Wu Zhe was secretly slandering him, and actually gave him another official position. But it was Bi Mawen!
Who doesn't know what Bi Mawen means? That is the black history of civil servants that Sun Houzi can't bear to look back on.
I am good, I have also become Bi Mawen, and I am still a deputy... so Wu Zhe's expression is a little distorted.
"The emperor gave me three years of research time, it seems very unlucky." Wu Zhe said with a smile: "It seems that I can't succeed without spending a few years."
"Haha, if you can research it, it's fine to give you the Mingma Valley."
After such an agreement, Wu Zhe resigned. A young eunuch following the imperial edict left behind.
Emperor Xuanwu looked at her figure going away, and groaned in his beard.
Chief Peng Da said: "The emperor is wondering whether Zhou Zhiruo can succeed?"
"Hmm." Emperor Xuanwu was still thinking, and asked casually: "Little Pengzi, how sure do you think you can be?"
Director Peng secretly figured out what the emperor was thinking, and felt that since he even called out the name "Xiao Pengzi", he was obviously in a good mood, and immediately said according to his heart: "This old slave thinks that I am 100% sure."
"Oh?" Emperor Xuanwu asked, "Why are you so sure?"
Director Peng bowed and said, "Your Majesty, it's only because Zhou Zhiruo is a blessed man who was born in accordance with the destiny of the country!"
Emperor Xuanwu was stunned, and immediately laughed: "Well said, Zhou Zhiruo's research is bound to be a success! My Great Wu Kingdom will produce one, no, maybe dozens of Xuanwu cavalry!" (To be continued...)
