Hu Cai left after the report.

The potter looked up at the canopy in a daze.

If Xiao Ying'er's identity is really Zhang Jiao's daughter, then, as Hu Cai said, she can be used to subdue the Yellow Turban tribes in the world little by little.

If you calculate it carefully, she is the best chess piece!

Just imagine, if you can really bring most of the Yellow Turban tribes in the world under your rule, such a huge population and productive force, whether it is conscription, digging pits, construction, or farming, you will not be short of people no matter how you want to develop in the future!

To win the world, not relying on force or intelligence, it is fundamentally up to people. Is Zhuge Liang talented? In Xishu, where there are few people and poor land, it is still in vain, in front of Cao Zhen and Zhang He, the prime minister of Shu Han can't play anything.

But is it really good to do it now?

It is not a problem to accept the Yellow Turban tribes, but if they really do this, once they develop too quickly on the surface, it will inevitably cause the common side eyes of the princes of the world, in case they all turn their guns against themselves, what should they do?

When the strength is not enough, it is better not to do it.

Some things have to be done little by little, and you can't be in a hurry, otherwise it will only backfire.

The potter reached out and rubbed his aching temples.

Water can carry a boat and capsize a boat, and now it is still in the process of development, not the time to show its edge.

Summoning the yellow scarf to the world is tantamount to death.

I am still doing it step by step, and developing Jinling City well is the top priority, and the rest is postponed.

When did Jinling City become a time when he was not short of money, food, taxes, military salaries, and mature technology, how many people could afford it.

That's when the potters dare to have the confidence to do such a big thing as the yellow scarf in the world.

The top priority now is to develop rapidly, after all, the arrival of the first tough battle is not far away.

The potter thought very clearly!

Soon after, if Yuan Shu was really defeated by Liu Biao's boss in Jingzhou, and his power could not extend to the south, Danyang County, the gateway to Yangzhou, would inevitably become Yuan Shu's target again.

It's a delicate timeline, but it's definitely not more than a year.

At that time, a big battle between himself and Yuan Shu was inevitable!

Before this big battle comes, potters must make adequate preparations.

Especially in Jiangnan, the infantry army, the navy army, and the horse army are all indispensable.

I now have 40,000 people as a team, and the strength of the infantry army is enough, but what should the navy and horse army do?

At this moment, an aromatic fragrance flowed down the air into the potter's nose.

The potter opened his eyes in surprise, but it was Xiao Ying'er who placed a bouquet of flowers on the table in front of him.

Xiao Ying'er's empty white eyes glared at the potter, and the child showed a sweet smile.

"Does it smell good? I picked it in the yard! ”

Looking at this child with a pitiful background and empty eyes, the potter was a little panicked in his heart.

I don't know how Sima Ju treated this poor child back then, so that she would rather go out and starve than go back to suffer.

Regardless of the disadvantages that I thought about at the right time, but I put a child on the political table so violently, and used a child born with an aura of suffering to subdue the so-called yellow scarf in the world, what is the difference between myself and Sima Ju's two goods?

The potter thought he had a better conscience than Sima Ju, because he was a gentleman.

"Beautiful." The potter reached out and rubbed Xiao Ying'er's head, and said with a smile.

At this time, Diao Chan had also walked into the hall and looked at the two of them warmly.

"What did Captain Hu say just now?"

The potter smiled at Diao Chan, shook his head and said: "It's nothing, he was beaten by his daughter-in-law, kicked out of the house, let me find him a place to live, I drove him back, regardless of him...... Eat, I'm hungry. ”

……

……

In order to cope with Yuan Shu's all-out attack that could come at any time, Jinling City was in full swing in military preparations in addition to carrying out agricultural work, expanding the city, and monopolizing salt and iron mining.

The two thousand Danyang soldiers brought from his brother Tao Ji, the pottery merchant was an independent battalion, and he was still the commander.

The Tiger Guard led by Xu Chu has continuously selected good fighters in the Chinese army to fill the number, and has now expanded to 3,000 people.

Han Hao was busy in Tuntian, and the 3,000 Taishan Army was handed over to Xu Rong for training and management.

In addition to these 8,000 elite soldiers and horses, the remaining 37,000 people are all the Jinling Chinese army of potters.

With iron and salt mining, farming, and hybrid rice still being studied, the potters felt that they would not lack money, grain, grass, weapons and equipment in the future, and even auxiliary tools such as horseshoes would be endless, but now there are two more important problems.

One is that I don't have a decent water army.

The second is that he does not have many cavalry.

The so-called South Ship and North Horse, the natural resources of Danyang County have been relatively well developed by potters, but Ma is not something he can conjure out of thin air.

In this Han Dynasty, the most powerful army is undoubtedly cavalry.

It seems that at such a moment, the time has come to use those two house slaves.

Yu Ear and Nose and Liu Huyu!

The two small Xiongnu nobles have lived a good life since they became the domestic slaves of the pottery merchants, although their status is low, but at least they don't have to live the original life of exile.

Eating and drinking all day long, the father and son seem to be a lot fatter than at the beginning.

What a chic thing this slave made them do.

On this day, the potter found a time to bring the two dashing brothers to talk.

As soon as he saw the white and fat cheeks of the father and son, the potter was a little unhappy.

Because of the development of Jinling City, I have an overview of the overall situation every day and night, and I feel that I have lost a lot of pounds with my subordinates.

But these two two goods are like raising an uncle, with fat heads and big ears, and the grassland Maitreya Buddha who is alive.

It's so unbelievable!

The Taiping Prince's command generally does not raise corrupt elements.

"Ear and nose, how are you doing in Jinling lately? Still used to it? ”

Yu Ernose looked at the potter nervously, nodded and said, "It's very good here, I'm very full and comfortable." It's all thanks to the blessings of the Prince of Taiping. ”

The potter said while sorting out the simple materials on the table: "Just eat very well, you followed me to Danyang County and saw that Jinling City is currently in full swing of development, and the civil and military officials under my command are busy every day in order to develop both military and political affairs. ”

Although Yu Earnose is from the Huns, he is not a stupid rammer.

At least from the beginning, he knew in his heart that the potter had wasted so much effort and brought him and Liu Huyu to his side, and he would definitely not humiliate them just for such a trivial matter as making the two of them slaves.

Yu has been tasting this prince of peace in his ears and nose.

This young man, very bad! It's ghostly! And he also has his own ideas.

Although he understood the reason, the potter had not said anything to their father and son during this time, and it was not a taste in the ears and noses in his heart, and he was nervous all day long, not knowing what the potter wanted his father and son to do for the Tao family.

Today, Tao Gongzi finally summoned Yu Ernose over, but he was finally going to have a showdown with him.

Yu Ernose said cautiously: "May I ask what the prince of Taiping wants our father and son to do?" ”

After the potter finished cleaning up the table, he stood up with a smile, and said to the ear and nose: "Ear and nose, when I was in Hedong County, you and I met for the first time, just in time for you to be expelled from the Southern Xiongnu court and exiled to Middle Earth...... When we met, how many years had you been expelled by the Southern Huns? ”

When Yu Ernose heard that the potter had mentioned his expulsion, he was a little unhappy in his heart, but he didn't dare to show it on his face, and then whispered: "It's been more than three years. ”

The potter's brow furrowed slightly.

"More than three years? Then you received these war horses from the Central Plains, but they were quite resistant, and they didn't change them for more than three years? ”

This sentence can be regarded as asking the substantive question to the root.

Yu Ernose now finally understands the purpose of the potter to get him back, it turns out that he wants a war horse!
