Stand-in eunuch: I pamper the harem for the emperor

Chapter 596 Dimensionality Reduction Strike
Since His Majesty the Emperor of the Chinese Empire has threatened to launch the Northern Expedition and wipe out the entire northern grassland, all departments of the Empire must make preparations.

Guns and ammunition are the most important part, and they are also the key to the victory of this battle.

Liu Rufeng was in charge of Hengyang City and first reported on the reserve status of guns and ammunition so that Lu Hao could make timely preparation judgments and plans.

Two million rounds of ammunition may seem like a lot, but it is only enough to equip two legions. It is definitely not enough to truly penetrate the northern grasslands.

However, some grenades and kerosene bombs can be equipped as supplements. Since there are no solid cities in the northern grasslands, artillery may not be of use.

If you really need to attack the city, it should be enough to bring some explosive bags.

"Thank you for your hard work, Master National Preceptor. I guess the ammunition will be a little short, but it should be enough with some grenades and kerosene bombs."

Lu Hao responded with a smile.

"Your Majesty, among the five major tribal alliances in the northern grasslands, Baili Tiance, the leader of the alliance, is the most powerful. His Tiance army comes and goes without a trace. It is said that they have never been defeated..."

Xuanyuan Dingyuan said in a deep voice.

"It's okay, it's just a small Baili Tiance. I don't take him seriously, and I prepared a big meal for him."

Lu Hao smiled slyly.

Everyone knew that when he looked like this, he must have some evil idea to deal with Baili Tiance, so they were full of confidence in Lu Hao.

In fact, with the dimensionality reduction strike of hot weapons against cold weapons, victory is inevitable, but if Lu Hao leads the army, the casualties will be minimized.

With super perception, the enemy would not even have a chance to make a sneak attack, and would fall into the trap set by Lu Hao, and eventually die without a burial place.

"I wonder when the Emperor will prepare for the Northern Expedition?"

Liu Rufeng asked.

"I have just put down the rebellion in the south and formed the Second Fleet of the Imperial Navy. I am also a little tired. Let's do this. Ten days later, I will personally lead the Northern Expedition. Within three months, I will wipe out the entire north and conquer the Chimir Prairie. Incorporated into the empire’s territory.”

Lu Hao thought for a while and thought it would be better to rest for a few days before setting off.

The most important thing is that he has to accompany Dong Xiaowan to give birth to a child, take care of several concubines, and settle Princess Shanrou of the Moyi tribe from the south.

The little princess has been living in the residence of the Minister of War since she followed Xuanyuan Dingyuan into the imperial capital. This time, after Lu Hao comes back, he will definitely give him an explanation.

After all, in order to stabilize the situation in the south, this marriage of power and interests is essential.

"Ever since I learned that the emperor was going to make the Northern Expedition, my subordinates began to send secret spies to sneak into the north on a large scale, and closely monitored the movements of enemy troops in the Sixteenth Prefecture of Yanyun, and bribed tribesmen from major tribes outside the Great Wall on a large scale..."

"However, my subordinates dare not send Meiyue clan members there, so the information transmission still lags behind a lot..."

Wu Qingyu reported loudly.

"Hahaha... You did a good job! The Meiyue clan members sneaking into the prairie is too conspicuous. Just let them lurk in Yanyun Sixteenth Prefecture or Yanjing City."

"As for buying the tribesmen on the grassland, the funds are definitely insufficient. I will give you an additional 2000 million taels of silver. If it is not enough, let me know."

Lu Hao was very satisfied.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Wu Qingyu was overjoyed.

It is impossible to obtain information without paying money. Therefore, the funding issue is also the issue that Mr. Wu is most worried about.

Now the emperor helped him solve it instantly, and if it was not enough, he could continue to add more.

"To report to your Majesty, Baili Tiance has learned that the Emperor is going to personally lead the expedition, and has already begun preparations for war. He is preparing to hold another meeting on the prairie to discuss how to deal with His Majesty."

Wu Qingyu reported loudly.

"It's okay. It's best if he can assemble the troops in the prairie to have a showdown with me, so that I don't have to chase them all over the prairie."

Lu Hao nodded slightly, not in any hurry.

The prairie is so big. If the enemy doesn't gather their troops and fights them one by one, and then relies on the fast maneuverability of their horses, wouldn't they have to circle around the prairie?

If Baili Tiance concentrated his troops, he would be able to wait for work.Therefore, Lu Hao first released the wind, then waited for their army to gather and set up a formation, and then annihilated them in one fell swoop.

"Your Majesty, the production speed of grenades and kerosene bombs is much faster now. Weichen will try to produce [-] grenades and [-] kerosene bombs in ten days..."

Liu Rufeng added finally.

"Master National Preceptor, you don't have to be too anxious, and you don't have to rush the work too much. I estimate that if the war actually starts, it will have to be postponed for a while."

Lu Hao said with a smile.

"Wei Chen understands!"

Liu Rufeng felt that the pressure was greatly reduced.

What follows is basically some imperial trivia.

Lu Hao just listened to their reports. As long as there were no major problems, each department could handle it themselves.

Your Excellencies, you all have a little understanding of Lu Hao's work style. Not only did the emperor give them power, but their work efficiency has also improved a lot.

The imperial machine was originally a bloated organization. After Lu Hao completely delegated power, he was not so tired, and they were not so tired when dealing with things.

In one morning, most things have been dealt with.

Lu Hao asked the Queen to have the imperial dining room prepare a working meal, and dine with all the adults to increase the relationship between everyone.

After lunch, Lu Hao followed Xuanyuan Dingyuan to meet Princess Shanrou of the Moyi tribe.

Considering Xuanyuan Dingyuan's relationship with the Moyi clan, he took good care of Princess Shanrou, but Princess Shanrou must have been thinking about the emperor and was a little absent-minded.

Early this morning, she learned that the emperor was back, and she immediately spent the whole morning waiting.

Unfortunately, there was no trace of Lu Hao, which made the little princess a little disappointed.

In the small attic in the backyard of Shangshu Mansion, Princess Shanrou held her fragrant cheeks and looked at the koi swimming in the pond, wondering what she was thinking.

"Princess Shanrou, the emperor is here."

A little maid hurried over to report.

"What? The emperor is here?"

Princess Shanrou was extremely excited.

However, instead of running downstairs, she quickly touched up her makeup and tidied up her clothes, hoping to leave a good impression on Lu Hao.

Women are the ones who please themselves!

Princess Shanrou is the princess of the Moyi clan, so she naturally has to please the emperor in order to ensure the interests of the Moyi clan.

In fact, this is not necessary.

Lu Hao has never seen such a beautiful woman, and last night he favored Nangong Ruoxue, the most beautiful woman in the Sui Empire.

Princess Shanrou was still dressing up, while Lu Hao had already climbed up to the attic and saw the beautiful alien woman in front of the window sill.

"Princess Shanrou, I'm here to see you."

Lu Hao strode in.

"Shanrou meets the emperor!"

Princess Shanrou quickly stood up and bowed.

"No need to be polite! Hey! You are dressed up beautifully today!"

Lu Hao suddenly felt his eyes light up.
