Chapter 320: Strange Savages
Looking at the soldier's sworn appearance, the diners were aroused, if there is such a magical thing in this world, then you have to get a little bit back for what you say, if you become infinitely powerful, you can go hunting in the wild by yourself, and a good life beckons to you.
"There's not a lot of that stuff up there!" Someone asked excitedly.
The soldier smiled and said: "Let me tell you, that thing is the same as the white one picked up in the north, densely packed with a large area, when I met a tribe of a small scale, those guys just ate that thing, and they are not afraid of death at all, you think about how powerful our army in Daxia is, more than 200 people beat their tribe of 100 people, and four or five people died, which was unimaginable before." ”
Everyone was shocked when they heard this, the army of Xia was an invincible existence in their hearts, and there were casualties among the barbarians who beat a bare-assed barbarian, which was really a sensational thing.
Many people began to think about going to the north to see and get some magical things back.
Not long after, when Wang Lang learned about this, he was frightened into a cold sweat, and according to the news sent back by the spies, he was very sure that this thing was opium.
If this thing is popular in his own army, then the army of Great Xia will be useless.
Frightened, Wang Lang hurriedly ordered that no one should use that kind of thing, and violators were punished with heavy punishments, and for those soldiers who were already addicted, they were told to return to Yancheng immediately.
As soon as this order was given, those who were going to go to the north to do a big job immediately stopped thinking and did not understand this order of the imperial court.
But the law of the Xia Kingdom is not a joke, if you really violate the law, you will have an extremely miserable fate waiting for your soldiers.
Although opium is a drug, it is also a very helpful thing for human beings if it is used reasonably.
Wang Lang sent someone to summon Hana to the palace and said, "Recently, something that can make people excited has been discovered in the north, and you must have heard of it! ”
Hana nodded and said, "I did hear a little news, didn't Your Majesty forbid anyone to eat it, why did you suddenly ask this." ”
"This thing is addictive to eating too much and wears down people's will, but as far as I know, this thing may relieve pain, I summoned you here in the hope that you doctors can study this thing, it is best to send someone to the north to see it in person, try to transplant some back, after picking all the things there will be destroyed, this thing can only be used for medical treatment, you must keep an eye on it in the future, and you must not flow into the outside world at all." Wang Lang said very seriously.
Hana's heart sank when she heard this, and she nodded and said, "The minister obeys!" ”
Wang Lang changed his words, stared at Hana with sharp eyes, and said in a deep voice: "I heard that the medical hall has been doing some tests recently, can you tell me in detail." ”
Hana's eyelids jumped, and her heart was a little flustered, but he was also a person who had experienced strong winds and waves, so he calmed down in an instant, and said calmly: "Your Majesty must have heard some gossip, our medical hall has not done any experiments, the use of penicillin has been determined, and we have no new research plan now."
"Really?" Wang Lang looked at Hana with a smile.
"If Your Majesty doesn't believe the minister's words, you can send someone to the medical hall for examination!" Hana said calmly.
Wang Lang squinted his eyes and stared at Hana deadly, and after a long time, he said: "No need, since you said it's nothing, then it's nothing, but I hope you remember not to do things that are unfavorable to the Chinese people." ”
Hana's face changed slightly when she heard this, and she bowed down and said, "Your Majesty, rest assured, the medical hall is a place to save people, and it will not hurt a single hair of the countrymen." ”
Wang Lang nodded and said, "You have to remember what you said today, you go back and prepare, and arrange for people to go to the north!" ”
"Yes!"
Hana got up, bowed to Wang Lang, and left the palace.
When they returned to the infirmary, when they saw Hana coming back, the doctors immediately surrounded them nervously.
"Father, what is Your Majesty looking for you?" Qi Yan asked in a deep voice.
Hana had a gloomy face and said slowly, "Your Majesty asked us to go to the north to collect that kind of magical thing. ”
"That's it?" A doctor asked.
"We've been careful lately, Your Majesty may already know what we're going to do again, and those test samples should be handled cleanly, so as not to show flaws."
Everyone was shocked when they heard this, and hurriedly said, "Since Your Majesty knows, why didn't you come to ask?" ”
"Hmph, we're using those people now, if we experiment with Chinese people, our heads won't be on our own bodies now." Hana snorted coldly.
The doctors, suddenly felt afraid, they had done it very secretly, if this could be known to Wang Lang who was in the palace, the power of the brocade guard spies made them feel that there was a pair of eyes staring at them behind them at all times.
"Let's put this matter aside for a while, beggar, you can take a few people to the north in a few days to see what the hell is going on with that thing." Hana said slowly.
Qi Yan nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go and prepare now." ”
In the palace, Wang Lang frowned, he was extremely entangled in his heart about using people to do experiments, rationally, living experiments could improve Xia Guo's medical level a lot, but he thought that as a person, doing such a thing could not be called a human being.
Although he knew that the Great Xia Medical Hall was experimenting on living people, but those test subjects were those cannibals who had died innocently, and this time he just beat these crazy doctors, hoping that they would not extend their claws to innocent people.
A few days later!
Wang Lang sat at the desk and looked at the concerts handed over by the ministers, many of which were trivial things, and he put them aside after reading them casually for a while.
But Mu Feng's recitals piqued his interest.
After getting Wang Lang's reminder, Mu Feng thought hard for a long time after he went back, and used it to sort out the specific construction plan.
On the top of the chapter, Mu Feng wrote in detail the specific steps of building hydraulic machinery, from where to build the embankment, to the specific labor, money and grain, all of which were written in great detail.
After reading it, Wang Lang nodded with satisfaction and wrote a quasi-word on it with a red pen.
If the water conservancy machinery can be successful, then the problem of manpower shortage in Xia will be greatly alleviated.
Powered by water, it will transform from a small handicraft workshop into a large state-run factory, and the efficiency of producing weapons and tools will be increased countless times.
At the same time, the army of the Western Expedition also made considerable progress, and the army of Lin Shupi in the middle of the road was encamped in one place
After that, dragoons were sent to reconnoiter around.
After feeding back the specific location and size of the savages, and confirming the location, the soldiers did not have a team of ten people, but divided into more than a dozen capture teams to attack in all directions.
In the case of a combination of open space and land, the capture efficiency can be described as extremely efficient, with an overwhelming advantage, ten soldiers can easily capture several times the number of their own tribe.
With this kind of cooperation, in just one month, the population within a radius of 100 miles was completely captured, and a total of nearly 2,000 people were captured.
These new captives were soon escorted back to the east by dozens of soldiers, where a site had already been chosen for their construction, and if they were sent back, a new city would soon be born.
Although there were only a few dozen soldiers escorting this group of people, they were powerless to resist with shackles, and they did not have the courage to resist, and they honestly lined up in a line and walked hobbly on the vast grassland.
And this generation of beasts has already learned the horror of human beings, in the face of so many human beings, there is no blind beast to attack, even the most ferocious beast, after seeing humans from a distance, immediately fled, long lost the prestige of the past, in the process of escorting the captives, the road can be described as unimpeded.
On the southern sea, the two warships slowly moved along the coastline, and when they passed through the southern jungle, Wu Gang saw the wild people living here again, those wild people jumping and jumping on the shore, which aroused Wu Gang's strong interest.
"Flag Slogan! Notify the boat behind to dock! Wu Gang instructed a sailor.
When the sailor heard this, he quickly climbed the high mast and stood on the lookout and waved the flag in his hand.
The sailors on the lookout on the rear of the warship saw the flag in front and shouted: "Admiral, the flag ahead, notify us to dock!" ”
Li Mu frowned, he didn't know what Wu Gang's plans were, he came to the deck and looked towards the coast, and when he saw a group of wild men performing like monkeys, he couldn't help but complain: "Pay attention to what these wild people do!" ”
But seeing that Wu Gang's ship had adjusted its sails and headed towards the shore, Li Mu had no choice but to order all the people to be on guard and follow behind the ships in front.
The savages on the shore saw the behemoth on the sea heading towards them, and they immediately became panicked and excited, and many of them fell to the ground and bowed to the boat.
When he was still more than 100 meters away from the coast, Wu Gang ordered the boat to drop anchor, lower the boat, and row towards the shore with dozens of soldiers.
"Be careful, if you find out that they are hostile to us, you will be killed!" Wu Gang commanded.
The soldiers nodded nervously, their bows and arrows clenched their bows and arrows, and the sword and shield hand drew the steel knife at his waist, staring warily at the group of savages.
When the savages on the shore saw Wu Gang and them getting closer and closer, they immediately became more excited, and some even danced madly dances.
After Li Mu was steady, he also sent a small boat to follow.
The boat docked, and Wu Gang stepped onto the beach under the heavy protection of the soldiers, and slowly walked towards the group of wild people.
When the savages saw a group of humans who looked about the same as themselves coming down from the strange thing, they immediately howled excitedly and ran towards Wu Gang and them.
Wu Gang jumped at this sudden change, and hurriedly said, "The archers warn them!" ”
An archer, drawing an arrow, unleashed an arrow and shot it at the sand in front of the group of wildlings.
The arrow frightened the savages to stop and look in horror at the arrows stuck in the sand.
The savages looked at each other, and one of the savages cautiously walked towards the bow and arrow, crouched down and lightly touched the arrow, and immediately flew away as if he had been electrocuted.
Seeing that he was not in danger, the wild man approached the arrow again, circled around it a few times, and when he was sure that there was no danger, he pulled the arrow out of the sand, and screamed excitedly.
Wu Gang and the rest of the soldiers couldn't help but look at each other in confusion as they watched the strange behavior of this wild man.
The savage who had found the treasure returned to the crowd excitedly with the arrow, prostrate in front of a rather strong man, and raised the arrow with both hands high.
The man took the arrow, carefully touched the sharp arrow with his fingers, the skin of the fingertips was punctured, and looking at the blood flowing out, the man raised the arrow and shouted at the group of savages something that Wu Gang did not understand.
And the group of wild men also howled as if they had been beaten with chicken blood at this moment.
Li Mu also landed on the beach at this time, looked at the group of wild men who behaved strangely, walked up to Wu Gang's side, and asked, "What's the situation!" ”
Wu Gang shook his head and said, "I don't know, but I don't think they mean to attack us." ”
"Brother Wu, we don't care what this group of savages do, it's better to hurry back to the Xia Kingdom." Li Mu reminded.
"Don't worry, I'm very interested in this group of savages, Brother Li doesn't know, when we passed through this jungle before, we found the savages living here, let's learn more, when Your Majesty conquers here in the future, we can also know the situation here, maybe we can make some contributions this time." Wu Gang said slowly.
Li Mu frowned and thought for a while: "It's still Brother Wu who thinks about it more, but this group of savages looks extremely stupid, even before we came to Xia Kingdom, we are much stronger than them, you see that their appearance is no different from that of fools." ”
Wu Gang couldn't help but smile and said, "Brother Li, let's take a look at the situation first, I want to know why they bow down to us." ”
The excited savages quieted down, and the man with the arrows looked at Wu Feng and them in fear, and the arrows bowed their bodies and slowly walked towards Wu Gang and them.
The soldiers stared at this man vigilantly with steel knives, and as long as there was a trace of hostility towards this man, what awaited him would be the end of the indiscriminate dismemberment.
When the man walked four or five steps away from the army, he knelt on the beach, and while speaking some strange language, he kept bowing to everyone.
Wu Gang stared at this person for a while, and then said to a soldier, "You can't communicate with him if you go and see." ”
The hapless soldier, armed with his weapon, cautiously approached the man.
"Can you understand me?" The soldier said impatiently.
When the man saw someone come out to talk to him, he immediately became excited, and kept bowing to the soldier without the slightest sign of understanding.
The embarrassed soldier looked back at Wu Gang and asked what to do next.
Wu Gang touched his chin and thought about it, walked up to the man, and asked the soldiers to lift him up.
