Chapter 252: Tianshui, which is making rapid progress
"Lord, in my opinion, your brother is scheming, what is written in this letter is a lie, just to paralyze you, you must not be fooled!"
A strong man said that this person's name was Zhou Bo, and he was a fierce general under Liu Che.
"General Zhou is right, don't look at the young age of His Royal Highness the prince, but resourcefulness is rare in my life, he fought a hundred schools of war when he was in Dawu, and the soldiers, legalists and vertical and horizontal families were defeated under his mouth, Lord Dongfang, although you are a debater, but if you talk about the work on the skin, I am afraid that it is far inferior to this prince, so don't be deceived by him."
A strategist named Zhang Tang said.
"Yes, yes, what Lord Zhang said is extremely true."
Dongfang Shuo nodded again and again.
"Since everyone says that he is deceiving me, then let me ask you, he is going to attack Chang'an, should I go or not?"
Liu Che asked.
This time, everyone was silent, if they said it, what if the other party suddenly killed Liu Che at that time? If you don't go, once Liu Yuetian occupies Chang'an, won't he directly ascend the throne and become the king of Zhou?
Seeing that everyone didn't speak, Liu Che was a little annoyed.
"Lord, we naturally want to go, we are bound to win the throne of the king this week!"
A young man in his twenties said suddenly.
"It turned out to be Brother Huo, what good can you do?"
The name of the speaker is Huo Quzhi, he is only twenty-five years old this year, a few years younger than Liu Che, don't look at his young age, but he has amazing martial arts, at the age of fifteen or sixteen, he once went to the land of Western Shu and the South Barbarian Land alone to train himself, and killed nearly 100 horse bandits and grass in two years, this behavior is somewhat similar to the general Li Jing of the Tang Dynasty, and many people also say that Huo Quzhi's future martial arts are very likely to reach the realm of gangqi, and finally become a generation of war gods like Li Jing.
Liu Bei once sent a messenger to recruit him, and promised to grant him great power, but he was unmoved, took the initiative to take refuge in Liu Che, Liu Che handed over all the military power to Huo Quai, under his leadership, Liu Che's army's combat effectiveness increased rapidly, which led to Liu Che's desire to dominate the world, and now Huo Qubing can be said to be one person under ten thousand people in Hanzhong, and even Liu Che is very respectful to him, and he is commensurate with brothers.
"Lord, those who achieve great things are not informal, can he Liu Yuetian take Liu Rong, the prince, seriously, can't we do it? Isn't he going to attack Chang'an? Let's also send elite soldiers, led by me personally, if the other party is as he said, then it will be fine, if he plays any tricks, hum, I'm sorry, then I'll destroy them together, isn't this it? ”
Huo Quai's young ambition was great, and his own martial arts had also reached the realm of Gangqi, and the way of commanding troops was also very superb, so he didn't take the other party in his eyes at all.
"General Huo, I heard that this Liu Yuetian's martial arts are also very high, and he has also reached the realm of Gangqi, you can't be careless!"
A military general next to him hurriedly said.
"Haha, that's right, if Liu Yuetian goes in person, I'll try it with him to see who is stronger and who is weaker?"
Huo Quzhi laughed loudly.
"This!"
Liu Che pondered for a long time, and finally nodded and said: "Okay, it's decided, half a year later, according to the time agreed with him, we will send troops to Chang'an, Brother Huo, I will give you 20,000 elite soldiers, and some things are up to you." ”
"Don't worry, the throne of the king this week will be yours!"
Liu Che took great pains to become the king of Zhou, but Liu Yuetian didn't bother as much as him, all he cared about was constantly enhancing his strength.
Fu Jian captured Hongnong County, Liu Yuetian also went to Hongnong soon after, personally met with the people in the city, and implemented the relevant tax policies, this move made the people and merchants completely relieved, this time his merit value increased by more than 300,000 yuan, and his prestige increased by four points, reaching eight points.
Now Liu Yuetian has a total of more than 600,000 merit points, and he directly exchanged 100,000 grain seeds, which will be enough for Fu Jian and the army when the autumn harvest comes.
In addition, he also exchanged 5,000 crossbows and various weapons for Hongnong's army, and Shen Fu also opened a branch of the Shen family firm in Hongnong, bringing glass and mirrors here.
The economy of Hongnong County has hardly improved under Liu Rong's governance in recent years, and in terms of economic potential, Hongnong County is much better than Tianshui, so it is conceivable that under Liu Yuetian's policy, it will develop at a rapid pace in the future.
Liu Yuetian's trip to Hongnong also found several historical ministers, such as a young man named Zhang Juzheng, who was evaluated by the system no less than Fang Xuanling, who was only a small clerk under Liu Rong before, only managing some accounts, and now Liu Yuetian found that he directly became an important official in Hongnong County.
There is also a historical celebrity named Chen Qun, whose attributes of governing the country are also more than seventy, this person is just an official scholar in Hongnong, and he was directly promoted to Wang Meng by Liu Yuetian.
In addition, there are Li Bi, Di Qing, Feng Yi, Han Baohu, Li Keyong and others, just as many as eight people who have been recognized by the system as famous ministers and famous generals, which is a lot more than Tianshui, in fact, this is also very understandable, Tianshui can only be regarded as a remote city, and Hongnong County is already an important big city in the country, and there are naturally a lot more talents, there are so many strongmen Liu Rong can't see it, he is not unlucky, who is unlucky?
With the help of these famous ministers and good generals, Hongnong is naturally worry-free.
Liu Yuetian is recently developing a weapon with Meng Sheng and Yin Long, once this weapon is successfully developed, even the crossbow will have to stand aside, Liu Yuetian directly named this weapon a musket.
The Yin Dragon, who had assassinated Liu Yuetian, was also reused by Liu Yuetian, and he also sent someone to the other party's hometown to take his wife and children to Tianshui, and the family reunion no longer had to hide and hide like before, so far Yin Long also completely surrendered to Liu Yuetian, he was also a member of the Mo family, proficient in mechanical manufacturing, and was stronger than Meng Sheng in many aspects, with the help of the two of them, Tianshui's smelting technology improved rapidly.
The musket is based on the Yin Dragon's Hidden Arrow to improve, and then uses black powder as the power system, attacking the enemy by firing metal balls, the three of them and a group of blacksmiths stay in the blacksmith shop for a month, Liu Yuetian continues to improve the smelting technology, and finally can stabilize the flame temperature at a high temperature of more than 1,800 degrees, and then with the help of Meng Sheng and Yin Long, several kinds of molds are made.
Finally, a month later, the first musket was made.
This musket naturally cannot be compared with the gun of Liu Yuetian's previous life, the structure is very simple, the chamber, firing pin, trigger and handle, every time the trigger firing pin is pulled into a gunpowder in the chamber, the eruption of gunpowder pushes the iron ball in the chamber to fly out, the range can reach 100 zhang, 70 zhang can cause effective killing to people, and within 50 zhang is the iron armor can not block the impact of the iron ball.
"My lord, if this musket can be mass-produced, it will be invincible, even more terrifying than a repeater!"
Yin Long held this musket, his face was happy, and the scars were even more terrifying.
