In 265 BC, the first month of the seventh year of King Wucheng.

Many major events in Ji Kang's previous life and history are in the making. The situation between the five kingdoms of Yan, Qin, Zhao, Han, and Qi is even more turbulent. The envoys of various countries are shuttling back and forth, the armies of various countries are also gathering on the border, and the secret spies of various countries are even more swords and swords.

Even the Xiongnu Shan Yu on the grassland also sent wolf horses from the royal court to convey the order of convergence to the tribes in the vast grassland.

Handan, the capital of Zhao State, the palace of King Zhao.

After Ji Kang's maternal great-grandfather, King Zhao Wuling, ascended the throne, Zhao implemented a series of reforms. Politically, the monarchs and ministers, the generals are harmonious, and there are many famous generals such as Feiyi, Lou Zhuan, Lin Xiangru, Yu Qing, Zhao Sheng, Zhao Hao, Lian Po, and Li Mu.

Especially militarily, the implementation of "Hufu cavalry shooting" in Zhao State made the combat effectiveness of Zhao's army unprecedentedly improved, and although the Qin army was strong, it was defeated by Zhao several times. When Zhao Guo was King Zhao Wuling, Ji Kang's maternal great-grandfather, he broke Lin Hu in the west, destroyed Lou Fu, and destroyed Zhongshan in the north, expanding the land for more than 1,000 miles, and the national strength was unprecedentedly strong.

But in his later years, King Wuling of Zhao made a fatal mistake and hesitated to choose a successor. In the end, he set up a younger son, that is, Ji Kang's maternal grandfather Zhao He as the king.

This made Ji Kang's maternal grandfather, Zhao He's eldest brother, who had been the prince of Zhao and Zhao Zhang, the acting prince of Zhao, very unhappy, and launched a rebellion in 295 BC. Zhao Cheng, the younger brother of King Wuling of Zhao, and Li Dui, the general, led the army to quell the rebellion, and Zhao Zhang, the king of the city, fled to the palace of King Wuling in the sand dunes in an attempt to get his father King Zhao Wuling to protect him, but was killed. And Ji Kang's maternal great-grandfather, King Zhao Wuling, was also besieged by Zhao Cheng and the general Li Dui and starved to death.

In 295 BC, the "Dune Rebellion" in Zhao shocked the countries. Although after this incident, Zhao's national strength declined, but it was also strong. Therefore, during the reign of Ji Kang's maternal grandfather, King Zhao Huiwen, Zhao still made all countries, especially Qin, dare not invade at will.

After more than 20 years of development, the state of Qin has become more powerful. In order to test the weakness of Zhao, in 269 BC, the Qin general Hu Yang led tens of thousands of elite soldiers to cross the Shangdang in Korea and attack Zhao's Yanhe, but was defeated by the elite cavalry of the Zhao army led by Zhao Hao. This made the now majestic Qin Wang Yingji extremely depressed, and even regarded Zhao Guo as a thorn in the eye and a thorn in the flesh of Qin, and wanted to get rid of it quickly.

Last year, Ji Kang's maternal grandfather King Zhao Huiwen died, and Zhao Dan, the king of Zhao who ascended the throne, was only thirteen or fourteen years old.

At this time, Ji Kang's grandmother, Zhao Weihou, was holding a silk silk in her hand and looking at it carefully, her brows furrowed slightly. This is a secret letter from the secret spy of Zhao State in Yan Kingdom, and it is urgent.

After reading it, he handed it to his son sitting next to him, Ji Kang's uncle Zhao Wang Zhao Dan. Then he said to the four ministers who had already read the letter and were kneeling below: "What do you think of this letter?" ”

The elegant man sitting at the head of the left stood up, bowed down and said: "Queen Mother, Your Majesty, judging from this letter, it may be true that the Qin State is coming, but the Yan State is cowardly, I don't believe that the Yan State dares to invade my Zhao State." ”

"As for the Huns, I think that the Huns will not let go of the opportunity to rob my Zhao State on a small scale. As for the large-scale attack, I don't think the Xiongnu will be able to do so, aren't they worried about the retaliation of our Zhao State? ”

The Queen Mother looked at an old man with gray hair sitting on the right and said, "Lin Shangqing, do you agree with the opinion of Zhao Sheng, the king of the plains?" ”

Lin Xiangru, the secretary of Zhao Guo, who was already in his seventies, thought for a while and said: "Judging from this letter, I think it is true, and the mastermind of the matter must be Qin Xiangfan Sui." ”

"The Qin State has long had the intention of offending me, and without thinking about it, it will definitely invade our country; Although King Yan is cowardly, he has long been angry with my Zhao State, and the Qin State has been stirring up trouble between my Zhao and Yan for many years, so it is very likely that Yan State will send troops, and it cannot be ruled out.

And more importantly, if you dare to let the Xiongnu Shan Yu, lead 100,000 wolves to ride the whole country and invade my Zhao country. It must be that the Xiongnu saw the opportunity to invade our Zhao country, so there is a great possibility that the three sides will attack me. ”

Zhao Weihou nodded, and said to the two remaining old ministers sitting below: "Xiangguo Yuqing and Pingyang Jun, what do you two think?" ”

Yu Qing and Zhao Bao looked at each other, and Zhao Bao, who was already in his fifties, stood up and said: "I think this matter is very likely, the border between Qin and Yan and me has been constantly rubbing in the border recently, and we must not guard against it." ”

Xiangguo Yuqing also nodded on the side and said, "Queen Mother, it seems that King Qin has a big plan this time. I think we still have to make two preparations, on the one hand, we are ready to actively prepare for the war, and on the other hand, we still need to seek foreign aid. Queen Mother, can you go to the State of Qi and ask the King of Qi to send troops to help me. ”

After hearing this, Zhao Wei nodded, and said, "It seems that the Qin State is indeed planning a lot this time. I will send a letter to Brother Wang and ask the Qi State to send troops to help. Ladies and gentlemen, the king is young, and I hope that all Aiqing will help you to tide over the difficulties together. ”

All the ministers stood together: "Please rest assured that the queen mother and the king will do their best to assist the queen mother and the king." ”

……

Ji Kang had forgotten to ask Ji Bo to send this information to Zhao Guo.

He has come to Xinchang Anshan Villa at this moment.

Although spring has begun, this year's winter in Liaodong County is much warmer than in previous years. But on the way to the Great Arc Mountain, the residual snow was also very thick.

The Great Arc Mountain is not too high, according to Ji Kang's previous life, it is more than 200 meters above sea level.

Ji Kang, accompanied by the military marquis Shi Yong and others, took the old manager Ji Mao and Shi Kang and a group of people to climb to the top of the mountain with difficulty along a path that had been stepped out by everyone, and with the support of the sergeant.

When I came to the iron ore mine found by the miners on the top of the mountain, a large patch of snow had been cleared of the surrounding area, and I saw the iron ore with a clear gray and dark red color, so it appeared naked in front of my eyes.

Although he had been prepared, Ji Kang was also excited in his heart.

In the previous life, Asia's largest open-pit iron mine had been stolen and excavated by foreigners for more than a decade, and it was used to bully its true owner. But then it still made a huge contribution to the people of this land for decades with the annual output of more than 4 million tons of steel.

The amount of steel produced by this Great Arc Mountain every year is several times more than the total steel of the most glorious Han and Tang dynasties in the previous life, not to mention the current Warring States Heroes.

Ji Kang turned around and said to Shi Yong behind him, "Have the bandits escorted from the counties arrived?" ”

"Childe Qiyu, there are more than 2,000 people who arrived in advance. There are also more than 6,000 bandits, who will be escorted over one after another. Shi Yong hurriedly replied.

Pointing to a large area under the Great Arc Mountain, Ji Kang said again: "Let them level this place first." Then the road was started to be repaired, all the way to the top of the mountain, and it was necessary to build it around the mountain. Remember, although these people are bandits, we have to feed and clothe them, and tell them that this is atoning for their sins and reforming them through labor. After two years of honest mining and road construction, they began to give them money, and after five years, they were registered and distributed, and they were left or left, at will. ”

"Shi Yong, I will now make you General Pi, appoint you as the head of the mine, and send you another 3,000 sergeants to come over. With Anshanzhuang as the center, a radius of ten miles is the military control area, strangers are not allowed to enter, and the internal personnel are equipped with special wooden signs that can show their identities. If you can do this well, you will have great achievements in Liaodi and the country, and I will always remember you. ”

Shi Yong fell to the ground excitedly: "Thank you Gongzi, a certain general will live up to Gongzi's trust." ”

He also said to the old manager Ji Mao: "Uncle Ji, immediately send someone to inform the drama that the eight or nine thousand bandits caught in Liaoxi County will be sent to the concentration camp built in Wuxian County, and let Jiang An, the doctor who manages the concentration camp, also implement this policy, and renovate the official road to Anshan in Xinchang as soon as possible." ”

Ji Mao nodded hurriedly and said, "No." ”

I remembered that in my previous life, when I was the head of the township, in order to develop the economy, I personally participated in the design and establishment of various small steel mills, cement factories, paper mills, glass factories, etc. Because the pollution was too heavy, he was later ordered to blow it up by himself. I remember when the factory was closed, the bosses who were friends beat their chests and scolded themselves, and Ji Kang felt a sadness in his heart.

Ji Kang raised his head, looked at the sky without a trace of dust and said, "I'm sorry, friends, you will definitely be happy after I leave, and you will scold me, it is indeed that I am sorry for you." But what you didn't expect was that I would pollute the sky and the earth again, and these factories that were established again would no longer need to be destroyed, even if they would be sealed and protected in the future. ”

After returning to Anshan Villa. In his room, Ji Kang climbed on a special table with a slope and carefully traced it on silk with charcoal, holding his own rulers, compasses, T-shaped rulers, triangular rulers and other tools he had made.

It's like studying in a classroom on campus in a previous life, just like the girl sitting next to her on campus in her previous life, still looking at herself with gentle eyes and drawing. I have said to you that I will be with you; I also told you that I want to grow old with you. But, I'm sorry, I lost my words.

Drawing, drawing, drawing, tears, but tears flowed from their eyes. But Ji Kang did not hesitate at all, and continued to draw on the table after touching it. Because he knows that what he is depicting is his future in this world, the future of his relatives in this world, and the beautiful future of this oriental nation.

There was silence in the room, only Shi Dang was there to help Gongzi.

The land at the foot of the Great Arc Mountain is full of people shouting and neighing, and the dust is flying, and the whole land is busy with the arrival of spring.
