King Ming actually didn't even see Xia Zixiu's face, he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to control it, so he killed Xia Zixiu, and all the information was forwarded by Ma Songju. Ma Songju can be said to be full of ambition these days, and he has enjoyed a lot of life, so he just made Xia Zixiu tremble and shudder when he saw him. Every day is like a year.

But the nineteenth princess didn't know, and when she heard King Ming mention Xia Zixiu, she couldn't help but be surprised. I saw King Ming laughing very happily: "Nineteenth sister, don't worry, Xia Zixiu is living happily now!" I didn't do him any wrong. But if you want me to release people, then you have to show some sincerity! After all, he was very disrespectful to me, the prince, and not only rebuked my messenger, but also took the lead in using force! I can't just forget it, otherwise how can I convince the public? ”

"Then according to the meaning of the imperial brother, what should I do?" The nineteenth princess is also a little helpless, now that Xia Zixiu is in the hands of others, it can only be made by King Ming.

"It's easy! The supply of forage must be delivered on time and in good quality. In addition, the nineteenth sister has opened a number of shops in the third child, should she also open a shop in my fiefdom? is also the royal brother, why favor one over the other? King Ming said dissatisfied. In fact, this time to provoke the incident, it was originally for the sake of those sought-after commodities of the Nineteenth Princess. Especially when he saw that King Wen and the Seventh Princess were making a lot of money, he was very angry in his heart, not to mention that he was now obsessed with burning knives, and the effect was amazing!

"I can guarantee that the fodder will be delivered on time. However, I have limited production capacity for those products, and I have no plans to open new stores for the time being. The main reason why I went to the third brother to open a shop was that the third brother was free of my forage supply, and the third brother had plenty of food, which was exactly what I needed the most. As for the Seventh Sister, I think you also know that the Seventh Sister and I have been working together in the Imperial City as early as the Imperial City! The nineteenth princess frowned and said. Sure enough, King Ming still took a fancy to the huge profits brought by those novelty goods. But King Ming was too greedy, not only did he want to earn this money, but he was not ready to give up the supply of forage, which made the nineteenth princess very reluctant.

"That's not to give the second brother this face?" King Ming's face had already been pulled down, and he didn't expect the nineteenth sister to refuse him tactfully.

"It's not impossible, the third brother has the food I need, and the second brother can also exchange the iron and stone of your fiefdom, what do you think?" The nineteenth princess smiled slightly, she now has a guarantee of food, but the iron and stone for iron smelting is in great demand, and she wants to build a large number of armor and weapons, which all need to use iron and stone. The nineteenth princess is really very calm, even if she is very passive, she still maintains a very sober mind.

"How's that going to work? The iron and stone of this king's fief belong to military supplies and cannot be traded at will! King Ming immediately refused, if this was the case, he was afraid that all the families in those fiefdoms and those who were flat would take the iron and stone to exchange for wine and drink! This thing is the basis for the manufacture of weapons and equipment.

"Then forget it, since the second brother doesn't agree, I won't force it!" The nineteenth princess said lightly.

"Nineteenth sister, do you really not give face to the second brother?" King Ming was suddenly a little annoyed, he didn't expect that this nineteenth sister was much more shrewd than Xia Zixiu, and what made King Ming even more embarrassed was that he had already blown a big word in front of the princess's wife, and he would definitely make the nineteenth princess compromise and open the shop to his fiefdom. By that time, soap, toilet paper, burning knives, etc. will not be enough! But I didn't expect it to be stiff.

"Well, it's the second brother who doesn't give me face! I think about my second brother very much, and I never slack off on soap and toilet paper every month. Mrs. Princess also tried to send as much as possible, I'm afraid the second brother won't know this, right? The nineteenth princess also behaved very aggrieved, and the king was speechless. Yes, the nineteenth princess gives more every time, which really makes the princess very happy.

"Huh! Sure enough, it is the nineteenth sister, much stronger than Xia Zixiu's straw bag! No wonder Xia Zixiu was annoyed every day, and he didn't listen to the advice of the nineteenth sister to lead to the current result! King Ming couldn't help but laugh and teased, and then rolled his eyes and said, "That's it!" Since Xia Zixiu was not very convinced, he said that he did not listen to your nineteenth sister's admonition to lead to the defeat. I'll give you another chance, as long as you can outdo my ironclad army, I will allow you to participate in the trade with iron and stone according to your wishes, and I will also exempt you from the task of providing forage, what do you think? ”

"What if I lose?" The nineteenth princess frowned and asked, feeling that this was a trap, how could her own men and horses be able to defeat King Ming's ironclad army?

"Defeated! I've also waived the forage task for you. But I must open a shop in my fiefdom, not less than the supply to the third child, and I will take 30% of the profit! King Ming said magnanimously, but the discerning person knew at a glance that this was a lion's big mouth, free of forage, but it had to take thirty percent of the profits, which was even more ruthless than the seventh princess!

"I disagree! First, I won't bet with 30,000 troops, the casualties are too great. Second, it is not an exaggeration to say that the Iron Armor Army is one enemy and two enemies, and such a bet itself is unfair! The nineteenth princess shook her head and said. There is no shame in admitting the toughness of the ironclad army!

"Hahahaha! Fair, fair, I'm definitely going to give you a fair chance! You don't have to be all involved. I only send 2,000 ironclad troops, and since you say that my ironclad army can defeat one against two, then I will let you have 4,000 men, how about it? That's fair, right? King Ming suddenly laughed and said, after listening to the evaluation of the nineteenth princess on the ironclad army, King Ming's heart is still very useful, this is his most proud combat unit, there is no one.

"And how do you judge the winner?" The nineteenth princess asked a little excitedly.

"Simple! Didn't Zhao Meng say that I crossed the line? Okay, all the rest of my men and horses are withdrawn, and there are only two thousand left, as long as you can get them out of the border, even if you win, how about it? It's not a difficult thing to do for just twenty miles, right? That's fair, isn't it? And before the two sides fought, I let Xia Zixiu go. "King Ming seems to have been prepared for a long time, and immediately said the way to win or lose!

Zhao Meng next to him said in his heart, hoping that the nineteenth princess would never agree, this was obviously a trap. In this way, winning or losing, that is, the side of the nineteenth princess must be attacking, Zhao Meng is very experienced in this regard, and the defense is to wait for work. And the cost of attacking is much greater, not to mention that in this way, those methods against the ironclad army will not be used!

"Alright! But I need time to prepare! The nineteenth princess hesitated for a long time before she gritted her teeth and nodded and said, in fact, she also knew that although there were twice as many people, it was difficult to win, not to mention that she had to push the other party back twenty miles, but the last sentence of King Ming was very tempting, and Xia Zixiu was released before the battle, which made the nineteenth princess moved, and now the army's morale is weak, and Xia Zixiu needs to come back to sit in town. So the nineteenth princess finally nodded and agreed!

"Hahahaha! Okay, okay, I'll give you ten days to compete when the time comes! Come, leave behind 2,000 ironclad troops, and the rest all retreat twenty miles! King Ming succeeded in his treacherous plan and shouted very proudly.

Suddenly, the army moved slowly, but the pace was adjusted, and it really retreated twenty miles. Only 2,000 ironclad troops were left, but the 2,000 ironclad troops were neatly arranged there, with fluttering scarves and flags, and a neat lineup, which still made people feel indestructible.

Zhao Meng looked at the nineteenth princess, sighed, then hugged his fists and left with his troops. He was a little sorry for the nineteenth princess, his previous performance was very amazing, but in the end, he fell into the trap of King Ming. It's a bit of a pity! In his opinion, four thousand? Twice as much is no match for two thousand ironclad troops.

"Princess, how can you agree? This is obviously a trap, so that we have to take the initiative to attack, which is equivalent to hitting a stone with an egg? Manager Wu also said eagerly, he had been making eyes just now, but the nineteenth princess turned a blind eye and agreed so easily!

"Well, I don't know King Ming's trap, but this way I can change Zixiu back, and if it's a big deal, I'll admit defeat!" The nineteenth princess also sighed and said, in the end, she was still swayed by her feelings, and agreed to compete with the two thousand ironclad army.

"What can the princess do?" Chief Wu asked with some frustration.

"Nope! Go back and discuss it again! The nineteenth princess also had a gloomy face, turned the horse's head, and went back by herself!

Wu Yue looked at the princess's back, a little anxious for the princess, but this time Wu Yue didn't dare to say more, but suddenly thought of what Zhu Xiaobao said before----Mecha is better than iron armor!"

Wu Yue's eyes suddenly lit up, and she said to Chief Wu: "Father, I'll go to the cave heaven and blessed land first, Xiaobao may have a way!" ”

"Hmmm! It's okay, princess, you can rest assured! I'll comfort her, after all, 4,000 people are not without the possibility of victory! Manager Wu's heart moved, and he immediately said. He knew that if Zhu Xiaobao really launched a rush, then anything could happen, and if that kind of thunderbolt could make hundreds of them, it was really very likely to defeat the two thousand ironclad army!

……

Zhu Xiaobao is really studying his tank, but there is no barrel, so he can only change the name to mecha chariot, and the first thing to solve is the power problem! It is impossible to have an engine, it can only rely on manpower!

But how to maximize the role of manpower, now can only make full use of the pulley block, according to the principle of labor-saving and not labor-saving, as long as the design is scientific enough, as long as a few people can release a strong power in a short time.

Zhu Xiaobao is completely immersed in his own inventions and creations, this kind of fun is difficult for others to experience, only Zhu Xiaobao will be deeply immersed in it, for a scholar, tackling one problem after another is the greatest fun!

Unexpectedly, at this time, Wu Yue broke in, and as soon as he came in, he said menacingly: "I want your mecha chariot!" Right away! The more the merrier! ”

"Huh? Sister, you're fine, right? My mecha is still on the drawings! Zhu Xiaobao raised his head, looked at Wu Yue blankly and said.
