Chapter 464: Xiang Yu's Killer Feature (First Update)

None of the people knew what Xiang Yu was doing in reply, but Xiang Yu didn't have a chance to ask them any more questions, but directly picked up the pen and ink and began to write.

Several people looked at each other with each other, obviously no one knew what kind of medicine was sold in Xiang Yu's gourd, so they could only wait for Xiang Yu to finish writing this letter with peace of mind.

"Princes, look at it, if the Great Qin Emperor agrees to this matter, I'm afraid it should be able to show their sincerity, right?" After waiting for a long time, Xiang Yu finally finished writing the letter on a roll of bamboo slips, and then waved his hand and motioned for all of them to come up and take a look at what he had written.

Long He and the others gathered on the table next to Xiang Yu, and hurriedly read the letter written by Xiang Yu, after reading it, the faces of the three of them all showed a look of surprise, and they didn't expect that Xiang Yu, who didn't know how to turn the corner when doing things on weekdays, would be able to think of such a trick to deal with Daqin and Yinggao.

The good thing is that once Xiang Yu's letter is sent, it will be no matter whether they can get the desired result or not, they can see whether Daqin is sincere about the alliance with the Xiongnu.

"If you have any opinions, if you don't have any opinions, don't send this letter to Xianyang City on a fast horse, once my request can be realized, it will be a great help to my Huns!"

Xiang Yu looked at the letter he had just written, and showed a meaningful smile, he really wanted to see what Yinggao's expression would be like after seeing his letter.

Yinggao didn't expect that a letter he had transcribed to report safety would ask Xiang Yu to reply to him, and he didn't expect Xiang Yu to ask him in the reply, to Daqin, when Yinggao saw the letter written by Xiang Yu himself, his brows wrinkled at the time, but after reading it, Yinggao walked silently in Xianyang Palace a few times, and then an edict summoned Meng Yi, Xiao He, Han Xin, and Zhang Kai into Xianyang Palace.

Zhang Kai was still very surprised after getting Yinggao's order, and he didn't know why, but obviously Yinggao looked for him a little more often during this time, and this time when he heard that the emperor asked him to go to Xianyang Palace, he was frightened.

This spirit is not because of anything else, it is precisely because the last time he and Lu Jia were brought to the Xianyang Palace, the consequence was that he sent many skilled craftsmen around him to the barren land.

This time, if he is asked to send people again, there will not be many people available around him, and now the burden on Zhang Kai's body is not light at all, according to Yinggao's order, they are studying the armor of the Great Qin Water Army.

The armor of this navy is not as light as a foot soldier or cavalry, it must be very light, once it falls into the water, it can be taken off at the first time, and after going ashore, it must have the ability to fight with the opponent's foot soldiers.

This topic made Zhang Kai feel very challenging, but at the same time, he was also very interested, so he didn't do anything else these days, just to study with a group of armor craftsmen how to create armor that would satisfy Yinggao.

After changing clothes and arriving at Xianyang Palace, Zhang Kai found that Xiao He, Han Xin and Meng Yi had already arrived in Xianyang Palace, and these big men were waiting for him, so he hurriedly pleaded guilty with Yinggao, and when he saw Yinggao waving his hand, he stood up and stood beside Han Xin.

"I just received a letter from the Xiongnu, this letter was written by the Xiongnu Shan Yu Xiang Yu himself, and the content of the letter also made me feel very hesitant, so I summoned the princes to the Xianyang Palace to discuss this matter."

Zhang Kai stood there, the more he listened, the more he didn't understand what was going on, a covenant was signed between Daqin and the Xiongnu, Zhang Kai knew about this, after signing the alliance, there was an exchange of letters between the Xiongnu and Daqin, that was also a normal thing, but what could it have to do with him, an official responsible for building weapons and armor?

Zhang Kai stood there in a daze, but what he was thinking about in his heart was what kind of problems were in the combat armor of the naval army he designed.

At this time, Ying Gao had already handed over the scroll of bamboo slips written by Xiang Yu, Meng Yi and Xiao He were holding the scroll of bamboo slips together, and were looking at them word by word, and after reading it, they frowned tightly almost at the same time.

After the two bigwigs finished reading it, Han Xin took the roll of bamboo slips, and saw that Zhang Kai next to him was still in a daze, so he hurriedly poked Zhang Kai with his fingers, and Zhang Kai came to his senses, and went to Han Xin's side to look at the bamboo slips with Han Xin.

Looking at this, Zhang Kai knew why Yinggao brought himself with a few big guys.

It turned out that in the letter written by Xiang Yu himself, he used a long speech to say that in order to cooperate with Yinggao to attack the Peacock Dynasty, the Xiongnu almost spared no effort to select 80,000 cavalry from the various Xiongnu tribes, and at this time they were training the grassland of the Xiongnu.

But in the second half of the letter, Xiang Yu changed the conversation again, saying that the biggest problem of his 80,000 Hun cavalry was nothing else, it was the lack of armor and equipment.

According to Xiang Yu, if his enemy is a rookie like Donghu Haoyue's clan, such a problem will not be a problem, but this time the enemy is the Peacock Dynasty with the same strength as Great Qin, and according to Wu Sheng, it has a class of troops riding elephants.

Under such pressure, the protection of the Huns' armor was really not enough, so Xiang Yu asked Yinggao for help in the letter, and asked Yinggao to help him with 10,000 sets of cavalry armor and weapons.

And people say, you are not a waste of money, if the Huns rush into the Peacock Dynasty one by one and die, it will not be of any benefit to the Great Qin Navy on the frontal battlefield, right?

It turns out that the Huns want my Great Qin to forge armor for them! After reading the letter, Zhang Kai finally understood why Yinggao would find himself here, at least he was an expert in forging armor.

"Xiang Yu's guy really has some intention of taking advantage of the fire to rob, and my Great Qin's armor is not blown by the wind, and the armor that my Great Qin built, isn't that set of real money? He will ask for as many as 10,000 sets of this mouth, if he gives them armor, and they point the finger at my Great Qin, wouldn't it be a problem to raise tigers? ”

For Xiang Yu's request, first of all, Meng Yi was very dissatisfied, Yinggao signed a covenant with the Huns, he can understand, after all, after signing this covenant, Daqin did not pay anything, and Xiang Yu can also go with Daqin to explore the barren land and attack the Peacock Dynasty.

But now that you look at it this way, it's a bit different, you Huns go to attack the Peacock Dynasty, you explore the barren land, but in the end you will get real benefits, now you have to take the weapons given to you by Daqin to fight, wouldn't it become a Xiongnu is a mercenary of Daqin?

So this kind of request made Meng Yi very unhappy, Yinggao raised his eyes and looked, not only Meng Yi, Han Xin was also iron-faced, although he still had some to do with Xiang Yu, but Han Xin was still a little unaccustomed to Xiang Yu's behavior that was a bit similar to taking advantage of the fire, and Xiang Yu in his impression should have disdained to do such a thing, but now, people have made it, which makes Han Xin feel a little caught off guard.

"What does Prime Minister Zuo think about this?"

Seeing that Xiao He was still looking at Xiang Yu's letter seriously, and he didn't express his thoughts for the first time, Ying Gao couldn't help but open his mouth, because he knew that often at this time, Xiao He should definitely have some different ideas, but he was embarrassed to refute Meng Yi in person.

"Since the king has found Zhang Kai here, I don't want to directly refuse Xiang Yu's request, and I look at Xiang Yu's wording in this letter, it is quite rigorous, and the request for this 10,000 sets of armor weapons is reasonable compared with his 80,000 cavalry of the Huns, after all, the relationship between my Great Qin and the Huns is not what it used to be, if the allies who are about to fight together are distracted in this matter, I am afraid that it will have a great impact on the big things that the king wants to do in the future!"

Xiao He did not directly refute Meng Yi's statement, but expressed his thoughts through Ying Gao, which made Meng Yi and Han Xin have no intention of refutating, after all, Zhang Kai was indeed found by Ying Gao, if Ying Gao really didn't want to give Xiang Yu anything at all, it would definitely be useless to find Zhang Kai.

"Let's talk about it first, if you give the Huns 10,000 sets of weapons that are incomparable to the elite cavalry of my Great Qin, how much manpower and material resources will be spent?"

After listening to Xiao He's words, Ying Gao directly turned his head to open and asked, he really didn't have any idea of what the number of armor weapons used in these ten thousand sets of cavalry was.

Although Xiang Yu's ally is very important, if it is really a lion's request, he must not be able to meet it casually, otherwise, this head will be a little bad, who knows what Xiang Yu will ask Daqin for next time?

"Your Majesty, since all the cavalry equipment of my Great Qin was replaced last time, the creation of this newly replaced armor weapon costs more manpower and material resources than the previous one, and the money spent in the end is on top of the past three sets, but if the monarch really wants to give Xiang Yu 10,000 sets of armor, my Great Qin is not without that strength, after all, in the armory on the outskirts of Xianyang City, I have prepared 20,000 sets of armor equipment just in case, In the hope that Daqin's cavalry training could replace the damaged armor and weapons. ”

Everyone listened to Zhang Kai's words, and they all looked at each other, and said in their hearts that this product is a bit too real, his own little family background, but he really doesn't shy away from others, if he lets him call the shots, it is estimated that Xiang Yu will ask for 50,000 sets, and he can also conjure it up for Xiang Yu.

"That's for my Great Qin cavalry, how can it be used easily? At that time, once the entrance to the Peacock Dynasty is really found in the barren land, not only the 80,000 cavalry of the Xiongnu, but also my Great Qin will send at least 20,000 cavalry to go with it, otherwise, how can I know what the Huns have done in the Peacock Dynasty? ”

"Then if we make 10,000 sets of armor and weapons for the Huns now, it will be okay, but now our main energy is focused on the creation of armor and weapons of my Great Qin Navy, I'm afraid it will be distracted."

There are not so many flowery intestines in his open heart, and what he thinks about the most is whether he will delay what he is doing now, and what he said is according to what Xiao He just said, since Yinggao called himself, he should want to agree to Xiang Yu's request, right?

"Your Majesty, although there is no problem with the recruitment and training of my Great Qin Water Army, there is no problem with this weapon and armor, and many craftsmen in the city have been sent to Lu Jia's team before, if you are distracted by building the armor and weapons of the Hun cavalry, I am afraid that it will delay the big event!"

Han Xin actually didn't want to provide any armor and weapons for the Huns, although he didn't come up with any good ways at this time, but what good way could Yinggao or Xiao have after he said his own opinions?

"The Xiongnu are now my allies of Daqin, and the matter of attacking the Peacock Dynasty is not something that my Daqin alone can complete, if I can't involve most of the elite cavalry of the Huns in this matter, when my Daqin army attacks, the rear of Daqin will be completely exposed to the Hun cavalry, so at this time, my Daqin's wise approach is not to offend the Huns because of the armor of 10,000 sets of cavalry, this is not because my Daqin is afraid of the Huns, but for the future plan."

As soon as Yinggao's words came out, Han Xin didn't have anything to say, he and Meng Yi saw this situation, and they both thought that Yinggao must have decided this matter, no matter what they said at this time, it must be useless, right?

"General Han Xin, you will follow Zhang Kai to the armory located on the outskirts of Xianyang City today, get six thousand sets of armor and weapons, and personally transport them to the Xiongnu royal court, as for how to reply to Xiang Yu, you don't have to worry about it."

At this time, with a wave of Yinggao's hand, the matter was decided, but when it came to his mouth, the 10,000 sets that Xiang Yu asked for suddenly became 6,000 sets, which made several of them show a contemplative look.

"Your Majesty, if you do this, will it play a slightly bad role, after all, with the national strength of my Great Qin, ......?"
