The battle between the two great powers of Qi and Zhao will not be as small as the war between Jiyang and Qi, and it is not the same in terms of scale, troops, or resources used. Jiyang is only a northern part with less than 100,000 troops, and the Qi State will send a maximum of 150,000 troops to attack, but the Zhao State and the Qi State are fighting, once the decisive battle is reached, it is not just 100,000 to 100,000. From a historical point of view, the battle of Qin and Zhao Changping, from the beginning of the 200,000 duel, to the 400,000 duel, and then the Qin and Zhao countries did their best, the total strength of the two sides reached more than one million, and the scope involved also from the original county to almost half of the Zhao country. The scope of its involvement is not something that ordinary people can predict. Therefore, Ran Fei went here, and it was extremely dangerous, because he didn't know where the war had been, and he didn't know whether the two sides had the determination to completely destroy each other. The first reason is that Ran Fei is not afraid, because the two countries are at war and they don't have much mind to care about other people, even if they encounter the army of Qi State, it is impossible to have a large-scale legion, at most they will encounter a thousand commanders who defend the two wings. As long as Ran Fei is well concealed enough, there is no big problem, and Ran Fei is an elite iron horse in his hand, although he will not win against one or two thousand, there is no problem in escaping. The most feared is the second reason, once one of the parties has the idea of destroying the other party, then the other side will also have the determination to fight to the death, and at that time, the forces used by the two sides will be more than 800,000 in terms of the strength of Qi and Zhao, and there will be no problem at all. If you are unlucky and encounter a large army movement, then Ran Fei will become a little snake in the eyes of the eagle.

But Ran Fei had to go, because the war situation was urgent, and the outcome of the war would have a great impact on Jiyang, although the Qi State had suffered a lot in Jiyang, but the deep foundation was not shaken. But as long as he loses with Zhao Guozhen this time, then it will be difficult for Linzi to have any ideas about Jiyang in a short period of time.

Ran Fei said: "I'll go to the Sword Forge Workshop now to see the specific situation, I think it's better to bring all the new weapons directly." ”

Strategist: "This ...... Don't forget, we still have a commitment to Yanguo. Give them two thousand swords. If they were all given to Zhao Guo, they would definitely feel that we didn't take them seriously at all. And King Yan is very narrow-minded. ”

Ran Fei gritted his teeth: "This matter is really difficult to decide, but I think it's better to take care of the things in front of you first." We'll just have to explain it to them then. So be it. ”

The military advisor originally wanted to argue, but Ran Fei's determination was already determined, so he said: "In this case, after you take the warehouse away, I will give this new batch of weapons to Yan Guo first according to the agreement." ”

Ran Fei: "It depends, if the battle situation develops well, then do as you say, if the war situation does not develop well, then talk about it." ”

"This ......"

Ran Fei didn't wait for him to finish, he immediately got up and went to the Sword Forge Workshop.

Ran Fei saw the general manager: "You sort out all the inventory first, and I'll bring someone to take it tomorrow." ”

The general leader: "General, dare to ask, is there another war?" ”

Ran Fei: "Yes, but we don't go to war, we just help." ”

"Oh, that's right."

"What's wrong? Are you afraid of going to war? ”

"I'm so scared that I'm not afraid, I just feel that fighting makes us feel very nervous, that kind of life is very difficult, how good is peace, what should I do, and I don't have to worry about losing my life tomorrow."

Ran Fei nodded: "Don't worry, I will try my best to maintain the hard-won peace." Let's go, go to the scene and have a look. ”

Ran Fei took the head of the chief to the place where the sword was cast in the swordsmithing workshop, and the fires were splashing everywhere in between, and the raging fire was endless, although the blacksmiths were shirtless, they still had a lot of sweat on their bodies.

The general leader: "Today the military advisor came, he asked us to speed up the speed of sword making, and now you are also here, so we are ready to recruit more people, divide into two batches, and travel day and night." ”

Ran Fei: "Okay, just do as you say, but you have to be more careful about the new recruits, and don't let those troublemakers come in." Especially the fine work of Linzi. This is where we are most critical. There must be no problems. ”

The head of the boss: "No! You can rest assured, with me, there will be no problems in the swordsmithing workshop. ”

Ran Fei nodded: "Okay, you do something, I don't worry." In a moment, I sent someone to bring a box of silver, which was supposed to be overtime pay for my brothers. Everyone worked overtime, hard work. At the same time, you tell everyone that as long as you work hard, I, Ran Fei, will never treat you badly. ”

"Then I'll thank the general for my brothers."

"You deserve it." Ran Fei picked up a long sword that had been built and looked at it, this sword was eighty centimeters long, and the blade was wide and thick, mainly used for slashing in front of ordinary soldiers, and asked, "How many catties of iron does this long sword need?" ”

"Three catties, if it's three inches long, it's almost four catties."

"How much time does it take to build?"

"If it's a second-class sword, it will take two hours! Fourth-class swords, it only takes an hour. ”

"What if it's a one-and-a-half-inch short sword? How much iron is needed and how much time is needed? ”

"It can almost shorten the iron and time by 30%."

Ran Fei said: "Then can we all make short swords, which can not only shorten the casting time, but also save iron." Because there is an urgent need for a large number of weapons. ”

The boss said: "That's fine. ”

Ran Fei: "Okay." If you only fight a short sword, how many can you fight in twelve hours a day? Two hundred people made a third-class sword, and the rest made a second-class sword. ”

He always thought carefully in his heart and said: "At most, we can gather more than 200 workers to work at the same time in a day, and if we work for all twelve hours a day, then we will have to rest the next day, but if we do this, we can build about 1,000." ”

Ran Fei: "Okay, then I'll give you a day, and the morning after tomorrow, I'll come to you to pick up the goods." ”

The head of the boss: "No! ”

Ran flew out of the sword casting workshop, and on the way home, he passed by the post station where the envoys of the Zhao State lived, so he went in to look for him, and the envoys of the Zhao State soon came out to meet him: "General! But the weapon thing ......"

Ran Fei immediately put his index finger in front of his mouth and made a move not to speak, the envoy of Zhao State immediately nodded, Ran Fei: "There are many people here, you go back to the house with me to talk in detail." ”

"Okay." The envoy folded his fists and bowed. Then followed Ran Fei out of the post station.
