Chapter 157: Two, the King Asks for a Monthly Pass
For Xiao He and others, taking refuge in King Han can only be said to be the last choice.
And Liu Ji may not agree.
Just look at Zhang Han.
Although Zhang Han is still reused, he has also been mixed from the general who commanded hundreds of thousands of Qin troops, and now he is only an idle one, and he has not even been able to mix with a county lieutenant.
And the soldiers who took refuge in Zhang Han that day were also scattered and scattered to various places.
Those people will soon be assimilated by the subordinates of the King of Han, not to mention a year later, it will be half a year later, Zhang Han's words are almost like air to this group of people.
Liu Ji came over, I'm afraid it will be the same ending, at most he will be a general.
This is an unacceptable result for the small princes who command tens of thousands of troops.
The most important thing is that once you vote for the king of Han, it means that the future ending is also doomed.
Because the Han King's control over the army is far beyond their imagination.
"Shall we?" Cao Shen looked at Xiao He with a sad face, the situation was getting worse and worse, and the sadness was always on his face, which was very depressing.
"No!" Xiao He glanced at Cao Shen abruptly and explained: "We are now the Chu army, if we go to the Han King at this time, we will definitely make Wu Xinjun immediately take action against the lord." ”
"It's always okay to keep in touch in private, right?" Cao Shen said.
"There are no airtight pants in this world, and King Han is not an ordinary person......"
Before Xiao He's words fell, the door of the small courtyard was pushed open.
Coming in were two guards in red uniforms, who didn't look obtrusive because of the leather armor on their chests and backs.
"Two, the king has a ...... please"
Xiao He: ???
Cao Shen: ???
"Please......" The guards made a posture of inviting in a proper manner, in this Luoyang City, there is no one they invite who will not move.
"Two, King Han wants to see the two of us?" Xiao He looked confused, and his heart was already a piece of mother's sale.
"Isn't it time to invite Fan Gong?" Cao Shen was also a little confused.
Just now, I was still asking if I wanted to contact King Han in private, but before the words fell, people came.
And it's so open-minded please.
"Then I don't know, the king has specified that he wants to see the two, please, the king is not so idle!" The Praetorian guards were a little impatient.
It's just two Chu State strategists, and their status is still so low, they can't even speak in the Chu State Mission.
How did King Han know about the two of them?
Could it be ???
Xiao He's face suddenly turned pale......
The two of them wanted to keep quiet, but under the leadership of the Praetorian Guards, how could they be silent if they wanted to keep quiet?
When they arrived in front of the courtyard where Fan Zeng and the others were, the guards of the dog day were still greeting each other, and the Chu envoys in the courtyard looked sideways.
I don't know how many I can see, but I must have seen two people.
"Hmph, what an unfed dog!" Fan Zengqi couldn't take care of his old arms and legs, and slapped a few cases fiercely.
"Fan Gong, you have to find a way, although Liu Ji is not a talent, he also has a few generals and tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, so he must find a way to appease him!" Someone immediately suggested.
"His advisers have all gone to see the King of Han, what else is there to appease?"
"If you want me to say, tell Wu Xinjun directly, just quietly kill Liu Ji, and the future of the province will be backwater!"
"...... right"
Xiao He and Cao Shen's faces became more and more pale.
The Praetorian guards don't go fast, and they can't go fast.
Faintly, the two heard the discussion in the courtyard, although it was incomplete, but the known information was sufficient.
……
In the royal palace......
The king was neither hungry nor idle, though he was the most idle of all.
There are only two prime ministers left in the palace, as well as Zhang Buyi, Sima Xin and others.
Zhang Buyi stood motionless behind Wang Buxing, like a mascot, if it weren't for a pair of eyes constantly rolling and the corners of his mouth twitching twice from time to time, no one would really notice him standing here.
Below, the two men sat opposite each other, each with a few cases in front of them, and there were pen, ink and bamboo slips on them.
"It's impossible, even if we can find so many materials, we can't find so many craftsmen." Chen Ping's ears were red, arguing.
"Nothing is impossible, the equipment department has nearly 10,000 personnel, and one or two thousand sets can be built in one day, and there are still a few months before spring planting, and there is no time to keep up, even if you can't keep up, you can also replace the farm tools around Luoyang first." Zhang Liang said exactly.
"Where are you getting so much material? Don't you want to be conscripted again? The king has just said that he will not be conscripted for a short period of time, so what is the prestige of the king? ”
"Now is a special period, I don't want to improve the farm tools, I can't use the cultivated land this year, I don't know how long the next big war will last, if I don't change it now, I don't know when it will be in the future......
“……”
Wang Buyu looked at the two prime ministers a little speechlessly.
In the later generations, this kind of topic will be solved in the village committee, but now, such a simple and necessary topic has to be brought to the court to solve, and it also requires two people to fight each other.
Wang Buxing deeply felt that the times still need progress, and the society still needs to develop......
"Okay......" Wang Bu was hungry and couldn't listen to it anymore.
does not deny the professionalism and dedication of the two prime ministers, but their own thinking mode surpasses them too much.
"Farm tools must be innovated, the construction period must be reduced, the blade can be made of copper, other parts are still the same, in addition, after the plan comes out, you can first build abrasives, and then pour them directly, once formed, in the grinding and installation, do not affect each other." The king was not hungry and commanded directly.
The two first quarreled for a long time between copper and iron, and finally came to no conclusion, and then pulled the topic to the point of whether to do it or not? When to engage in this.
Do!
It has to be done!
What are the current folk farm tools?
The heavy wooden shelves, fixed to them by sharpened stone chips, such farm tools, let alone people, are difficult for an ox to pull.
Iron and copper are strategic materials, and after Qin Shi Huang unified the six countries, he confiscated all weapons and materials, including iron or copper on agricultural tools, although not many could afford to use them.
"Your Majesty, Xiao He and Cao Shen are here!" A sudden report came from outside the hall.
Speaking of these two people, Wang Buxing was really drooling, and specially arranged for the guards to listen to the root of the wall, and then heard the scene of Xiao He and Fan Zeng fighting each other.
After the news reached the palace, Wang Bu was not hungry and immediately arranged for someone to invite Xiao He and the others over.
What are you doing?
Just invite the two of them to Luoyang Palace.
"Hmmm! Let them in! Wang Bu was hungry and answered, turned to look at the two prime ministers, and said:
"Decree to recruit people who can increase yields, things, and laws in Zhuxia, people who are good at managing cultivated land, agricultural tools that can improve the efficiency of farming, and methods that can increase yields, and whoever is adopted, will be knighted as a doctor, and rewarded with a hundred acres of food, and those who are rewarded, except for rebellion and treason, the title of food can be continued for generations to come......"
