If you want to enter the age of sailing, what you lack is people.

In the Central Plains, mainly by farming, as long as they are not hungry and can't survive, who wants to cross the ocean and leave their homeland to go overseas?

Although there are some places overseas, the land is fertile, and it is better than the Central Plains.

But it is not easy to convince these people to emigrate.

Therefore, Lu Bu decided that the first batch of people would send the captured Cao Wei soldiers.

When they get a foothold overseas and make a fortune, and then they come back, more and more people will be willing to go overseas.

After going overseas, they can marry with local natives to promote ethnic integration and let them gain a foothold faster.

These settlements are nails and strongholds.

……

The shipyard in Qingzhou started production in full swing.

First of all, Lü Bu ordered people to build a steelmaking plant and start making steel.

Then, a large quantity of timber is delivered here every day.

At present, Dahua's forest resources are extremely abundant.

It is not like later generations, who used wood to produce disposable chopsticks, and cut them down excessively, resulting in the destruction of the ecological environment.

Now, under the regulation of the imperial court, deforestation is being cut in an orderly manner.

After the felling, Lu Bu would order someone to plant the saplings.

When the steel mill started producing steel, the shipyard also began to open.

At present, Dahua's shipbuilding technology ranks first in the world.

Although it is still mainly made of wood, it has begun to be wrapped in iron sheets.

And, now they have tried to load power into the ship.

Instead of relying on the waves, as was the case with previous ships.

With the engine and propeller loaded, the speed of the boat will be increased by leaps.

The establishment of the shipyard made Qingzhou's labor force begin to be in short supply, and it was simply in short supply.

Fishermen who understand shipbuilding technology are the most popular.

Their wages reached 30 yuan a day, which was three times that of the small workers on the construction site.

Moreover, this wage will continue to increase as they become more and more proficient in their craft.

In the future, forty or fifty dollars a day will not be a problem.

One ship after another was built, and all of them were moored in Weihaiwei and Yantaiwei.

……

During this time, Cao Cao frantically arranged a defensive line in Jizhou, almost turning Jizhou into an iron bucket.

The defense of the annexed states is also gradually being strengthened.

Cao Cao can't afford to lose now, whether it's Bingzhou or Jizhou, he can't lose it anymore.

These two states, once they lose any of them, Cao Wei will fall into a state of no return.

But even so, Cao Cao still felt unsafe.

Dahua's weapons are too advanced and sharp.

Relying solely on defense, I'm afraid you won't be able to defend at all.

The most important thing is to develop science and technology!

However, the difference between Cao Wei and Dahua's scientific and technological level is more than a hundred years?

Trying to catch up in a short period of time is tantamount to a dream.

On this day, Cao Cao called his eldest son Cao Ang to his side.

In the original historical trajectory, Cao Cao conquered Zhang Xiu, and Zhang Xiu knew that he was invincible and surrendered to Cao Cao.

But Cao Cao was lustful, and when he saw Zhang Xiu's aunt's beauty, he included Zhang Xiu's aunt in the harem.

Zhang Xiu felt insulted, rebelled angrily, and killed Cao Cao by surprise.

In the end, it was his eldest son Cao Ang who gave up his war horse to Cao Cao, and Cao Cao was able to survive, and Cao Ang gave his life because of this.

In this world, because of Lu Bu's arrival, this incident did not happen at all, and Cao Cao's eldest son, Cao Ang, did not lose his life because of this.

Cao Ang is smart and has a bold and humble temperament, and it can be said that he has many advantages and is deeply loved by Cao Cao.

If nothing else, Cao Ang will be made the crown prince and the heir to the throne.

However, Cao Wei has been hanging and beaten by Dahua recently, and he has lost pieces of territory.

Cao Wei's thatched cottage was up and down, and the people were panicked, and Cao Cao had no intention of establishing a prince.

Very open, Cao Ang came to the palace.

"Son-in-law, see father!"

Looking at the tall and handsome eldest son Cao Ang, Cao Cao couldn't help but nod with satisfaction.

Cao Cao couldn't help but say to Cao Ang: "Ang'er, sit down and talk." ”

"Thank you, Father!"

After Cao Ang sat down sideways, Cao Cao couldn't help but say to Cao Ang: "Ang'er, this time my father is going to marry Bunton, you marry Bunton's daughter as your crown princess, this time to welcome the marriage, you will go!" ”

What the?

Is it so fast?

Recently, the situation in Cao Wei has been tense, so Cao Cao intends to unite with Wuheng's Gang to resist Dahua together.

Wu Heng also understands the truth that his lips and teeth are cold, if Cao Wei is annexed by Dahua, then they Wu Heng will not have a good life.

Therefore, these two people hit it off.

Of course, for the sake of his own nation, Bandun will have the conditions to support Cao Cao.

But he will definitely not do his best to support Cao Cao.

Because, after all, they are nomads, and if Dahua is too strong, they can completely migrate and avoid its edge.

The two parties join forces and trust each other, so marriage is the best choice.

In order to stabilize the relationship between the two parties, Cao Cao decided to let his eldest son marry the daughter of Bun Dun as the crown princess.

Cao Ang also knew about this decision.

Cao Ang didn't like Wu Heng's women at all, in Cao Ang's opinion, Wu Heng was a group of barbarians.

The people of Wuheng value the youth, and the elderly do not have the slightest human rights to speak of.

A young man who kills his father and brother does not violate their law, but he cannot harm her mother.

After Wuheng's woman got married, her husband died, so she married her brother-in-law, and when her brother-in-law died, she married her brother-in-law and got a son. If the uncle doesn't have a son, it's the turn of the other uncles.

The whole is an uncivilized barbarian.

As soon as he thought that he was going to marry a woman of such a nationality and become his wife, Cao Ang felt bored.

But this is politics, born as the son of a Huang family, marriage is not something you can decide.

Even if you don't want to, you can only pinch your nose and recognize it.

However, Cao Ang didn't expect that things would happen so quickly.

Now that my father actually let himself go to greet his relatives, is the current situation of our Great Wei Kingdom already in crisis to such a point?

Cao Ang couldn't help but say in a deep voice: "Father, the son knows it, and the son will set off on a later day." ”

Cao Cao stared at Cao Ang and said, "Ang'er, this time, my father will give you 10,000 horses." When you get to the place of Badun, you can take the opportunity to kill Badun, kill those Wuheng leaders, integrate Wuheng, and turn Wuheng into our soldiers and horses. ”

What the?

This time, Cao Ang was really surprised.

It turned out that his father asked him to bring 10,000 horses to propose marriage, but he had this kind of thought.

But how can this be?

It's obviously a close relationship with others, even if you don't like Wuheng's woman, but you can't do it!
