Liu Bei looked at the gift list in his hand and looked at the Zhang family a little embarrassed, it can be said that he apologized for repairing Fenggao before, but now this gift list is a bit like taking advantage of the Zhen family.

"Madame doesn't have to be like this." Liu Bei said with emotion.

"I heard that Liu Yuanjun wants to build a academy, and the Zhen family is very prepared, and is willing to build a academy in the Qingzhou area of Mount Tai for Liu Yuanjun for free, and the so-called accommodation subsidy for my Zhen family is also willing to follow." Zhang said with a smile, it doesn't cost much to build the academy, and it doesn't cost much to donate some chairs and benches, so what is it for those little ghosts to have breakfast and lunch in the academy? The Zhen family has more than 10,000 servants and slaves, so what is there if you raise more?

It is not too much to spend money in exchange for Liu Bei's favor, drizzle, drizzle, when this plan was handed over to the elders of the Zhen family, the members of the older generation of the Zhen family did not take it to heart.

It is said that now the older generation of the Zhen family is mixing with the Mi family, the Wei family and several other big businessmen, how to get the business regulations done and make profits for the Zhen family, like this, the Zhang family can decide things in one word, but they don't take it to heart at all, and the Zhang family himself hurriedly came over to help fight with this group of people.

"This is not very good, the cost is a little too big, and some of them are not good for the Zhen family." Liu Bei shook his head and said, he could hear that the Zhen family was kind, but the Zhen family couldn't bear this expense.

"Xuande Gong is underestimating my Zhen family?" Zhang opened the velvet fan to cover half of his face, and a smile appeared in the corner of his eyes, "The concubine really wants to see how much this cost is?" ”

Liu Bei smiled bitterly, in his opinion, Zhang's was obviously guilty of overconfidence. "I don't know this exact number, but Zichuan said that it is impossible for one family to carry this."

"In that case, I will ask Xuande Gong to give a number when the time comes. The Zhen family also wanted to contribute to the prosperity of Xuande Gong's rule. Zhang squinted slightly, Chen Xi would not mess with Liu Bei, so he said that he couldn't handle it, then it was not a joke.

"Madame, don't worry." Liu Bei took a sip of tea.

Zhang's mouth under the velvet fan pursed a little dissatisfied, then got up and saluted Liu Bei Yingying, and slowly withdrew.

"Zhang's senses are really keen." Chen Xi shook from behind the screen and said, "But why should I hide? ”

"When she sees you coming, she hides. When you see her coming, you'll hide and continue talking about the past. Liu Bei pointed to the seat next to him, motioning for Chen Xi to sit down and continue.

"In addition to the cloud long department, the Ziyi department. Except that the officers and men of the three units of the Xuangao Department have not yet returned, and the naval army itself does not need to be adjusted, the other units have completed the first batch of discharges and are being reorganized from the Tuntian army. The chengguan brigade, composed of veterans over the age of 32, has all been selected. After a few days, the sacrifices to the fallen soldiers can be reorganized. Chen Xi explained the things he had dealt with during this period of time.

Liu Bei nodded again and again, sounding very satisfied, but after a while, he hesitated for a while and said, "Actually, Zichuan, you don't need to prepare a new weapon, probably you haven't carefully observed the weapon, so to speak, the spear made of 100 forged steel is not as sharp as the standard spear that a soldier has used for a year." It is not as tough as the standard spear. ”

"Huh? How can it be? Chen Xi asked puzzled, he was still going to dig coal to change the clothes of the elite troops. How could such an unreasonable situation occur.

"To put it simply, internal qi is the nature of weapons and armor, which is why Yun Chang and I are also only made of iron, but now they can easily cut those newly forged iron weapons." Liu Bei thought for a while and said, "In this respect, the standard weapons of the soldiers have far exceeded 100 steels in essence after a year of use. ”

"......" Chen Xi was speechless, there is still such a situation, such a coal mine can only be used to make honeycomb coal, my steel products super god plan!

"Because of this, there will be no large-scale replacement of the regular army, because each update is equivalent to abolishing the lethality and defense of the regular army, which is why most of our weapons for the soldiers are repaired, and rarely say that they are replaced."

Saying that, Liu Bei took out a standard broadsword with many openings from the top of his bookshelf, and then found a horse chopping sword that Chen Xi was going to promote.

"Look, that's it, generally speaking, this is the case with weapons, of course, the weapons forged by some masters in special methods may be far sharper than the weapons that these soldiers have used for more than ten years as soon as they are born, but that kind of weapon obviously cannot be popularized on a large scale." Liu Bei threw the standard broadsword full of gaps on the table, sighed and said.

"So, where did we get our previous equipment?" Chen Xi asked curiously, the horse slashing sword is scrapped, he is now more concerned about how those high-quality weapons came from before.

"New weapons, so it's very bad, this is one of the reasons why a new recruit is easy to be crushed by a veteran, the weapon gap is too big, and this is why I won't allow non-commissioned soldiers who have not been trained for a year to go to the battlefield, because the gap in weapons and equipment is too big." Liu Bei said helplessly, there is such a reason, the recruits are completely waste......

Chen Xi was speechless and picked up the standard broadsword full of gaps, "In other words, these weapons can only be repaired, and they can't be rebuilt?" ”

"Yes, it's no problem to repair it, but the weapon that has been rebuilt is completely new." Liu Bei said helplessly, "So weapons are a trouble for any prince, and it is said that the equipment of the Han Court Yulin Wei has been passed down from generation to generation. ”

Chen Xi was shocked instantly, if according to Liu Bei's one-year pig iron broadsword, he could cut off the horse chopping sword made of hundreds of steels, then the Yulin Guard, which had been cultivated for four hundred years, would probably become an artifact.

Liu Bei may have also seen Chen Xi's shocked eyes, waved his hand and said, "It's not as exaggerated as you think, everything has a limit, whether it's mortal iron, iron iron, iron refining iron, meteorite iron, as long as it's still iron, then the final limit is one thing, and it can't become something else." ”

"Oh, there's no need to change your outfit at all, just provide the weapons that have been used by the people before, right?" Chen Xi shrugged his shoulders and asked.

"The weapons of the predecessors were simply not enough. That's the biggest trouble! After all, as long as a weapon is raised, it will be scrapped after not being used for a long time, unless someone can raise the weapon to the legendary Cheng dù who already has a spirit, but that is just a legend. Liu Bei said helplessly, I haven't heard of anyone raising weapons out of spirit in the past few hundred years, who blew this idea? (To be continued......)
