Deng Guo, champion Yi.

The first batch of craftsmen and government soldiers recruited by Tian Xin have assembled in Dengcheng with family affairs, and will then move to Lingnan by boat, including the artisan team assigned by Meng Da.

After hesitating, Meng Da set fire to the warehouse.

Flames rose into the air, and soot fell.

Meng Da looked up to the sky and sighed, very disappointed.

Without the full support of Danyang Iron Mill, and without the supply of timber that does not cost around, even if the research of wooden rails and carriage technology is handed over to the Han, how much can it do?

With some kind of pent-up resentment, Meng Da burned the accumulation of a year.

When Xiahou Jun was ordered to come to deliver the edict, all he saw was a blank field, and there was no trace of all the new chariots and vehicles that everyone expected.

Meng Da took Danshui back to Jiangdu, passing through Danyangyi.

Danyangyi is declining at an expected rate, there are fewer ships to and fro, many tenacious weeds have grown on the dirt road between the wharf and the workshop, and the military food manufacturing and military uniform manufacturing industries in Danyangyi have also been transferred to Dengcheng, where the population is becoming more and more thin.

The ship was temporarily moored, and Xiahou Jun accompanied Meng Da for a walk on the dock: "The imperial court has high hopes for Meng Gong, but now it is on fire and the warehouse is burned, I am afraid that Meng Gong will be difficult to explain." ”

"The court has high hopes for me...... Why don't you see the craftsmen, money and grain allocated by the imperial court? ”

Meng Da put his hands behind his back and took a calm attitude: "Since I developed the chariot, the wood, copper and iron, and craftsmen used are all from Deng Guo. I don't even have a pasture or forest garden under the name of Taifu Temple, where can I raise my own money and food? It is difficult for this clever woman to cook without rice, and if the court asks questions, I will answer them from this. ”

Xiahou Jun was silent, just walked with Meng Da.

Although I don't know what Meng Da has researched at the bottom, there are also related rumors, which seems to be a chariot that can efficiently transport military rations.

It is ingenious, and it is more dexterous than the wheelbarrow produced by Deng Guo.

Only a few people know how.

But now that Beifu has moved south in batches, there are still many orders to be delivered for the woodmill and the iron mill, otherwise they have already joined the migration sequence.

The sooner we move to the South China Sea, the sooner we can resume production.

When the ship passed through Dengcheng, General Yangwu Meng Xing came to see him off.

The father and son were dining in the pavilion on the pier, and Meng Xing was puzzled: "Why did my father burn the stored equipment?" If you keep the equipment in the public, there is no intention of hiding and cherishing yourself. ”

"I'm not thinking about Chen Gong, I'm thinking about the Northern Expedition."

Meng Da calmly analyzed: "I thought that the Northern Expedition to Guanlong would make contributions, and Chen Gong would take over as the governor of Guanzhong, the prime minister of military politics. In that case, it is just right to be a servant of the father. can look at the behavior of the imperial court, Chen Gong moved to Lingnan to avoid suspicion, I am afraid that in the future, my servant will also be replaced by the prime minister and people close to Song Gong. ”

"If that's the case, why bother with the railcar construction method?"

Meng Da said and drank tea with his hand pinching the small teacup, probably angry, and trembled slightly when he pinched the small teacup.

The governor of Guanzhong that he had scheduled is gone, and the ranch in Guanlong cannot be fully controlled.

Tian Xin's dream of benefiting Xiangzi with Tian Xin was shattered, and Tian Xin's plan for the future changed due to Wu Guo's surrender, so his own had to change with it.

Hiding the rail car construction method in your head, you have the confidence to negotiate with the imperial court.

If the sample of the rail car falls into the hands of the imperial court, what else do you have to do with this disobedient servant, wouldn't it be better to change it to a more convenient one?

The profits of rail cars are large enough to subvert the pattern of the world.

Such an important thing, the Meng family can't keep it; It is necessary to pull in enough township parties to surround the Tian family in order to be shared by everyone.

But the surrender of Wu completely changed the situation in the world and also changed the pattern in the Han court.

Looking at his stupid son, Meng Da drank tea and drank himself, thinking about the various inquiries that he might encounter when returning to Jiangdu to report on his work.

Railcar technology must be hidden...... In fact, this is not useful to oneself, but it has a great impact on the situation and pattern of the world. Through the manufacture and control of rail cars, a large-scale network and group can be weaved.

The core of this group linked by the affinity of the township party is naturally the Tian family, and the Meng family can become the inner ring.

It's a pity that Wu Guo didn't fight, he surrendered by himself, the governor of Guanzhong that he had planned for a long time was gone, and the foothold of weaving a group by himself was gone.

Now that it's gone, what else do you need to do with the rail car?

With selfishness, as well as loss and anger, Meng Da burned Liu Bei's heart.

Although I don't know the concept of rail cars, there are some rumors in the speech, but because of the pronunciation, the rail cars are recorded as 'ghost cars' in the intelligence.

Legend has it that a ghost cart that can be pulled by four horses can carry 500 stone of military rations, and a ghost cart can carry a team of armored soldiers to march quickly.

Moreover, the ghost car can also be connected to the front and back, and it is said that it can transport a battalion of armored soldiers at a time.

But Meng Da actually burned the ghost car with a fire, did he release rumors to confuse the public and deceive people, or did he deliberately embarrass the court?

If you think about it carefully, four horses carry military rations, and at most eight stones; If you pull a cart, you can transport thirty or forty stones.

What kind of cart can carry 500 stones, and can be pulled by four horses?

The more I thought about it, the more I felt that this was Meng Da's grandstanding trick, and suddenly burned it clean, that is, to destroy the evidence.

This phenomenon is very common, and there are many auspicious recitals to the imperial court, and many strange things can happen.

The bizarre story of Meng Da making ghost cars here and being burned by the Yin soldiers is quite reasonable, with cause and effect, which can be convincing.

Liu Bei didn't care about the ghost car with Meng Da, but he had other things to worry about.

After Meng Da arrived in Jiangdu, Liu Bei summoned him and asked: "Qing and filial piety are good to each other, and they know that filial piety is the first person." Today's filial piety first said that the Northern Expedition must not be saved for three years, and that money and grain need three years of accumulation, and the people's hearts also need three years? How to solve this people's heart for three years? ”

"The minister thought that what Chen Gong said was for the people of Jingyang and Erzhou. Since the beginning of the war, there have been many people who have been ruined. Now that Jiangdong is attached, it will take at least three years for the officials to reunite their families and make a living. ”

Meng Da wore a black and bright Shu brocade robe, and wore a virtuous crown on his head: "I am also gathering the people of Lianghuai, Lianghuai and the Central Plains to survive in troubled times, and mostly avoid living in mountains, forests, and lakes." The imperial court recuperated for three years, and the people who had fallen into the mountains, wilderness, rivers and lakes came back one after another, and the people were organized into households, and they could get a lot of servitude. In this way, Jiangdong's money and grain were transferred to Yanzhou, and there was no need for additional conscription. ”

After a slight pause, Meng Da said again: "The righteousness is in Han, and our army reunites the camp, like turning the arm." The Wei people are suspicious of each other, and their soldiers are easy to disperse, and it is really difficult to reunite. Therefore, I recuperated for three or five years, the court had a levy, and the army was reunited in an instant; The longer the Wei army rested, the more dispersed its momentum became, and its strength was exhausted and difficult to use, and it was no match for our army. ”

The mobilization of the Wei army is not as good as its own, this is a certain thing.

Liu Bei felt justified when he heard this, so he said: "Wang Wenyi, the great Si Nong, has gone to Jiangdong, and there is a saying in his recital, saying that according to the Jiangdong Treasury, our army can get a year's income. Xiaoxian is reasonable, I think our army should have a three-year-old accumulation. ”

Liu Bei didn't have a smile on his face, and after his son Liu Feng committed suicide, he didn't have any smile: "I want to implement a false plan, and I agree with the theory that filial piety has saved up for three years to deceive Cao Pi." Qing is a filial piety first villager, you can go to see filial piety, so that filial piety can be used together. ”

"Specifically, it also depends on the savings of the government treasury in the next year, if the wind and rain are smooth, the treasury is full, then this plan will be implemented, and the thieves will be unprepared. If the treasury is insufficient, it will be based on filial piety first, and it will be gathered for three years! ”

He said so, and Meng Da had no choice but to go downhill and be ordered to visit Tian Xin at Xiangzhou Tea House.

The emperor is back, and this nominal servant is not interesting, it is better to change to a position of real power.
