Chapter 341: Rebuilding the Mask (3) (Asking for Collections, Recommendations, and Subscriptions)
"It's a pity, if we can contact the people on the other side, attack from both sides, and defeat Bai Deyuan will be just around the corner."
Su Jun is very regretful, the Daiguo people are a great vassal state, far from a peaceful and comparable state, not to mention that the Daiguo people are more inclined to befriend Su Zhongqing's eldest brother, so even if Su Jun wants to establish friendship with Daiguo, I am afraid that the other party will not be willing.
Tian Shunchang shook his head and said: "I heard that the Daiguo people are more unpredictable than the Northern Barbarians, even if they are willing to help, we don't dare to use it, otherwise even if we defeat the Northern Barbarians, but we are constrained by the Daiguo people, isn't this driving away a tiger and another group of wolves?" ”
"It's nothing! No matter how you say it, the Daiguo is a vassal state of the Dawu Empire, and in the final analysis, it can be regarded as the same root and origin, which is much better than outsiders, right? ”
Su Jun shook his head and continued: "Besides, as soon as the old king of the Daiguo died, the interior was immediately torn apart, which shows that they don't have a guy who can stop the scene, such a group of people is easy to deal with even if they are fierce, but there is such an eloquent guy as Bai Deyuan in the Northern Barbarians, which makes people have a headache, if we contact the people of the previous generation, if they are really willing to help, we can still take advantage of it, Chu Xuan, Lu Shun, you both have a snack on this matter." ”
"Okay, Master Su, the villain understands"
"Yes, General"
Lu Shun and Chu Xuan raised their heads at the same time and replied.
Yan Qinghua stared at the map on the wall for a long time, and said, "Master Su, in fact, if you want to contact the people of the previous generation, there is really a shortcut here, don't believe it!" ”
Everyone's eyes were attracted by Yan Qinghua, and they all turned around and asked in surprise:
"Merlotshire?"
"Yes, Merlot County is close to the sea, and it is our neighbor, and his Guangding County has a port, and we can go around by water, and we can enter the territory controlled by the people. We can send someone from here. ”
Su Jun pondered for a moment, "But no one has ever walked this road, but I am afraid that there are many obstacles along the way, and there are pirates on the sea, and it is difficult to walk this road!" However, it can be used as a train of thought. When we find the right candidate, we will give it a try, anyway, dead horses are treated as live horse doctors, and if we don't have any hope of success, we don't care about disappointment, mainly on our own. ”
Everyone nodded yes.
"Qinghua, it may take some days for me to leave, and the daily affairs of Tai Dangjun will be entrusted to you."
Su Jun continued: "Especially the expansion and training of the army, this is a top priority, there are also problems such as equipment, the army is urgently expanded, the combat effectiveness will inevitably decline, the sooner we solve this problem, the easier it will be for us in the future, this problem cannot be ignored." ”
"Youlin, if the army needs money and property, the county must support it vigorously, no matter how difficult it is, we must find a way, as long as we get through this period of hard time, we will get better and better in the future, now is not the time to be stingy."
Although Su Jun has great trust in Zou Hong's ability to do things, he is like a parent who is about to go out and is worried about his child, and he still does not forget to tell a few words.
"Your Highness, rest assured!" Zou Hong immediately said, "Even if you wear your belt, it will not shorten the military expenses, the skin is gone, and the hair will be attached, how can I not understand this truth?" ”
"Well, that's good!" Su Jun appreciated his attitude, took a knife from the wall, pulled it out, and put it on the table, "Everyone, please see that this is the knife that our craftsmen have just developed to make steel, let's see how this is different from what we used before?" ”
Yu Dayou is a general, and he was naturally happy when he saw the new weapon, so he picked up the knife and danced a few times, then sighed and said in a sullen voice:
"Master Su, this knife is lighter than the one we used before, but it is more flexible." As he spoke, his arm slashed down and stopped abruptly in the air, and the knife made a buzzing sound and kept vibrating.
"That's right!" Su Jun picked up another knife, took over the new knife in Dayou's hand and raised it high, and then slashed it hard, choking, and the one behind it was split in two.
"So sharp! I feel like I'm about to catch up with Su Ye's Blood Drinking Treasure Knife."
Everyone said in amazement.
Su Jun stretched out the knife in front of everyone, and saw that the blade was still as sharp as before, and there was not even a gap, all with an expression of disbelief.
"This is the latest and best steel that has just been developed, which adds a small amount of gold ore, although it is much worse than my treasure knife, but it can already be regarded as a divine weapon, but unfortunately, this kind of material knife can not be mass-produced for the time being, because the technology is not stable enough, however, the weapon that is slightly worse than this knife can be produced in batches, everyone, in the future, our soldiers will be equipped with better weapons, and the spear produced with this steel will be worn by the barbarian thin iron armor!"
Su Jun said with a smug smile.
Several military marquis were all excited, and they were all gearing up, eager to receive such a good weapon immediately.
This group of high-level officials of Taidang County stayed in the hall for a whole day, and even the lunch was sent to the room by Gao Meng and others, and everyone studied the business while eating, until all the affairs were properly arranged, and it was already the time to hold the lamp, and everyone got up one after another to say goodbye.
Su Jun sent the others away with a smile, but only Chu Xuan was left, so Chu Xuan's face slowly turned red under the strange gaze of the three of them.
The room that was still lively just now suddenly quieted down, Gao Meng was also very considerate and closed the door for the two, the two didn't know what to say for a while, glanced at each other, Chu Xuan couldn't help lowering his head in the other party's blazing gaze, and the blush slowly expanded from his face to his neck, Su Jun couldn't see her face, but happened to see her fair back of her neck peeking out of the collar for a small part, and gradually it was like dyed with a little rouge, and the blush slowly spread, making Su Jun can't help but get hot.
Awkwardly silent, since the last time the two chatted, Chu Xuan has been trying to avoid being alone with Su Jun, but the work she is responsible for is only responsible for Su Jun alone, so she can't avoid it if she wants to.
And after Yan Qinghua had a deep conversation with her, it also made her understand more clearly that Su Jun's subordinates didn't want to be Su Jun's wife, even if it was a concubine, and at the same time, as an eldest lady from a family, Chu Xuan had heard and seen a lot of similar things since she was a child, and almost all of them ended in tragedy.
As for Yan Qinghua's hidden teaching, she can become Su Jun's woman, but she can only be the identity of her lover, so she avoids this matter even more, although she has suffered misfortune, it does not mean that she can despise herself and become a woman hidden in the dark behind others.
If Chu Xuan doesn't like Su Jun, it is definitely self-deception, not only because Su Jun once saved their sisters, but also because she always has a trace of gratitude in her heart, even if Chu Xuan is still Chu Xuan in the past, through this period of time and this peaceful son, he is also destined to like this handsome young man who exudes unique charm.
