Chapter 39: Strength Sets the Limit
"Okay, you have a chance to witness my promotion." A soldier said.
"With your three-legged cat, who can you beat?"
"Alas, I'm a centurion, and if I don't train well, I'm afraid I won't be able to keep my official position."
"But isn't it, you can't do it if you don't work hard."
"yes, maybe if I train well, I can still be a general."
The enthusiasm for the training was instantly high, and the soldiers practiced day and night, refusing to stop. Seeing that the things in the training ground here were almost busy, Liu Feng and Zhao Yun no longer participated in training every day, after all, there were more important things that needed to be done with their hands.
On this day, Liu Feng called Lin Zhi to him, this young man followed the training every day, his skin was tanned, and he saw that he was much stronger. However, Liu Feng knew that this was not Lin Zhi's stage, he belonged to the water.
"Lin Zhi, I want you to train a navy, what do you think?"
"Trolls? We are guarding the city here, and Shimira is the direct flow of the Ganges River in the highest reaches, and there will be no sailors going upstream. ”
"Hehe, they don't swim against the current, we can go downstream."
"Crazy, what do you mean?"
"Lin Zhi, don't forget the wish I told you at the beginning, we are going to make contributions in this world, defending the city, it's just a matter of the moment, let's take a long-term view."
"Okay, then I'll listen to you."
First of all, he asked Kulanyi to arrange for someone to supervise the shipyard, and if there is a naval army, there must be a warship. When Ku Lanyi heard about Liu Feng's grand plan, he knew the ideals of the generalissimo of the Tang Dynasty, and he was very supportive. She and Talia were both very kind, and they couldn't see the people suffering, and they also hoped to end this complicated war, so they nodded in agreement.
Liu Feng went to the school and picked five hundred soldiers and allocated them to Lin Zhi for him to practice.
After the start of the naval army, Liu Feng was very concerned about Prince Kurut's weapons factory, so he rushed to the newly built weapons factory with Kulanyi and Zhao Yun.
With the supervision of the state, this weapons factory was built very majestic. In the large courtyard, hundreds of iron stoves are lined up, and the steaming heat is everywhere. The blacksmiths were shirtless, picking up hammers, and the sound of clanging iron was incessant.
The fat man Kurut checked one iron furnace after another, and if there was something wrong, he hurriedly pointed out. This time, there are many blacksmiths in the city who join, but it is not enough, and Kurut has many new apprentices who need his careful guidance. Seeing Kulanyi and Liu Feng coming, Kurut hurriedly put down his work and turned around to bow down.
Kulanyi hurriedly stopped, saw his sweaty brother, handed over a handkerchief, and said softly, "Thank you for your hard work, big brother." ”
"What's so hard about this, the eldest brother loves to work. I've liked to study weapons since I was a child, and sister, you don't know it, only by doing this, can I be happy. ”
"Kurut, you have taken good care of this weapon factory." Liu Feng said.
In the early days of the war, Kurut learned that this Tang Dynasty man, who often discussed ironmaking with him, turned out to be the generalissimo of the Tang Dynasty, and led the Shimiro soldiers to defeat the Tanesha army, and also carried out a series of changes. I was able to become the director of this factory, thanks to this Marshal Liu.
Thinking of this, Kurut hurriedly saluted Liu Feng, "Thanks to you, Marshal, we have this weapons factory, and we, the blacksmiths, admire you very much." ”
"Whatever you say, you have obtained it by your ability. We will soon have to fight, and if we have good weapons, we will fight well, so you have to work hard. ”
"That's nature." Kurut agreed, and immediately, there was a sad face, "It's just that this top-level weapon needs better ore, and it also needs the cooperation of the monsoon to refine steel." ”
"We don't need such top-notch ones for the time being, try to do as well as they can for the soldiers. I know the problems you mentioned, and there will be a way to do it in the future, you believe me. ”
The top-level ore is in Nantian Bamboo Country, and the heat of firewood and charcoal is not enough, Liu Feng naturally knows these problems, and there are ways to solve them, but it will take some time.
After seeing the armory factory, as soon as she returned to her residence, Princess Thalia found Liu Feng.
"Madman, didn't you send someone to Nanyue to find a kind of rice before, and that person has already returned." Talia said.
"Oh? That's great. Liu Feng was very happy, this Zhancheng rice was what Liu Feng thought of, it was easier to find, and it was a crop that could increase yield. With this, it is not a problem to solve the problem of eating for the people.
This Champa rice is a high-yielding, early-maturing, drought-tolerant rice variety with very strong adaptability. It was not until the Song Dynasty that Champa rice was introduced to the Central Plains, which greatly increased grain production. In the country of Shimiluo, the promotion of Champa rice, combined with late rice, there is no problem with three crops a year.
Knowing the news, Liu Feng jumped three feet high happily, couldn't help but hug Talia and kiss her the face. Talia was caught off guard and was flushed.
After a long while, Talia regained her strength and continued, "The envoy who went to the Tang Dynasty has also returned, bringing the Holy Decree of the Tang Emperor. With that, Talia handed over a package of papers.
Liu Feng took it, opened it and took a look, and the content was really expected by Guo Jia.
Named Liu Feng a general, avenged the mission, and raised the prestige of the Tang Dynasty. In addition, he gave Liu Feng a marriage, and named Talia the marshal's wife, and fully assisted Liu Feng Yunyun.
"Madam, shall we go and tell Kulanyi about Champa Rice?"
