They were even thinking, could it be that there are still people who want to urge the lord to calm the world as soon as possible?

Again, the idea is not very likely.

If the murderer behind it is one of Cao Cao and Liu Bei, it is unlikely.

They don't want to provoke Yang Zhao now, and they don't want Yang Zhao to go south so quickly.

As long as you go south to attack Yangzhou, you will easily attack Jingzhou, and finally Yizhou.

They are not going to do such things that harm others and themselves.

"Who could be the one who framed the lord?"

Li Ru said suspiciously.

Yang Zhao asked them: "Do you think it may be Taiping Dao?" ”

As soon as these words came out, they fell into deep thought.

If you guess in the direction of Taiping Dao, the possibility is still very high, in order to prevent Yang Zhao from going deeper into the west, Taiping Dao deliberately provoked the war in the Western Regions, and now it is possible to use Yangzhou to contain Yang Zhao.

Yang Zhao said again: "Taiping Dao can make artillery, so they can also make crossbows and steel knives." ”

Xun You first agreed: "The lord's guess has a certain truth, Taiping Dao did this to prevent us from gathering a large army and entering the west again. ”

Guo Jia said: "What is the significance of Taiping Dao doing this? ”

Feng Ming thought of a possibility and said: "It may be that Taiping Dao is also developing, and their development cannot be affected by the lord, because the affairs of Sima Yi and Han Sui and others made them discovered by the lord, and now they can only make trouble and drag the lord westward as much as possible." ”

This speculation seems to be valid.

Yang Zhao asked, "Boyang, when you were in the west, what did you see the people of Taiping Dao doing?" ”

Yang Feng thought back for a long time and said: "It seems that he is gathering troops and preparing to attack the Roman Empire further west. ”

"That's right!"

Feng Ming thought that his conjecture could be valid.

"The people of Taiping Dao are attacking the Roman Empire, and they are also increasing their strength, and when they develop and make more weapons, the people of Taiping Dao may lead those Westerners to kill the Han again."

Jia Xu brought up the idea of this one to make them feel threatened.

Tian Feng asked: "Taiping Dao is strong and ambitious in the West, how can we be good?" ”

Xu You said confidently: "Our current weapons are much stronger than those in the West, and Deheng will regularly make some new and more powerful weapons, and our development speed will be faster." ”

Hearing this, they agreed.

Now the speed of weapon renewal in the army is very fast, on average, a new weapon can be developed in a year, and this year's new weapons have not been delivered, but it should be fast.

There are various theoretical supports, as well as knowledge such as basic weapons, which provide Ma Jun with various ideas for weapons, coupled with Yang Zhao's huge annual investment in research and development, the craftsmen who can make new weapons get super generous rewards.

Under the superposition of a variety of conditions, Ma Jun's research and development speed can be very fast.

As long as there is a sufficient industrial base, many pre-modern weapons, they can be developed and manufactured.

After listening to Xu You's words, they felt that their pressure had decreased a little.

"I have an idea that can delay the development of Taiping Road." Frustrated Professor said suddenly.

"I want to hear about it!" Yang Zhaodao.

"We send some, not very powerful, firearms technology of the same level as Taiping Dao to the Roman Empire, and use them to delay the development of Taiping Dao, which can give us more time to develop new weapons."

Fu Zhu continued: "Just doing this, it is easy to leak our gunpowder and other technology. ”

As soon as these words came out, their eyes lit up at the same time.

Gunpowder technology and other things have long been no secret.

There is a traverser in the West, they are already using gunpowder, and now the question is who can get the most out of gunpowder and make stronger weapons.

Yang Zhao felt that this plan was feasible, and said: "Boyang, you can go to Yecheng later, let Deheng and them prepare some low-end artillery technology, and send them to Rome as soon as possible, so that they can help me contain Taiping Dao." ”

It should not be so easy for the Taiping to attack Rome.

Send the technology over now, even if Rome still has half of it, and still be able to resist a little.

However, it seems that it is not easy for them to cast cannon barrels, etc.

That's all they can do, and what happens to Rome depends on their luck.

"Yes!"

Yang Feng nodded.

Yang Zhao asked again: "Zhou Yu is coming to Luoyang, where is he now?" ”

Yang Feng said: "There are about two days left, and you can come to Luoyang." ”

"Send someone to answer it."

Yang Zhao thought about it for a while and said, "Now it's better to stabilize Yangzhou first." ”

Yangzhou doesn't need to fight, it is naturally the best, he glanced at the panel of Hongtu hegemony, Yangzhou's piece, for the time being, is still yellow, and has not turned red, indicating that Sun Quan, who is now in power, will not rebel for the time being.

They discussed the whole thing.

In the end, they locked the mastermind behind the scenes, locked Taiping Road, and arranged for someone to pick up Zhou Yu, so they put the matter down for the time being.

Everything will wait until Zhou Yu comes, and discuss it separately.

The appearance of the Western traverser still brought a certain threat to Yang Zhao, and by the way, Yang Feng sent an order to Ma Jun to speed up the study of physics and chemistry, etc., not to lag behind the West, and let the shadow people chase and kill the people who still stayed in the Taiping Road of the Han Dynasty.

As long as you find it, kill it directly, no need to be soft.

It's less than two days away.

Finally came back with news that Zhou Yu had come outside Luoyang.

Yang Zhao hurriedly asked people to greet him, and then brought Zhou Yu to the government office.

"I've seen Qi Gong!"

Zhou Yu bowed.

Yang Zhao frowned and said, "I have heard about Sun Bofu, can you tell me about the specific situation?" ”

Zhou Yu sighed faintly, and told all the things that had happened.

Fortunately, the people around Sun Quan are still sensible and will not shout and kill immediately.

Yang Zhao said: "This matter, definitely not I did it, if I want to control Yangzhou, there is no need to use these inferior means to force you to rebel, I will lead the troops to fight, wouldn't it be more direct?" You are no match for me. ”

"We are far inferior to Qi Gong!"

Zhou Yu shook his head.

In the confrontation on the frontal battlefield, the Sun clan could not be Yang Zhao's opponent.

Zhou Yu said again: "Does Qi Gong have any suspicions? ”

"Taiping Dao!"

Yang Zhao talked in detail about their speculation about the Taiping Dao, as well as the artillery of those Westerners when attacking the Western Regions, and said: "Westerners can have artillery, and it is easy for them to forge steel knives, and in addition, the technology of the crossbow is no longer kept secret by me, and it is not difficult for them to get it." ”

Zhou Yu said to himself: "Taiping Dao, how sure is the conjecture of the lord?" ”

"Seventy or eighty!"

Yang Zhao affirmed: "If you can believe me, I will find out about this matter, the shadow of my subordinates is already tracking the traces of Taiping Dao, as long as it is found, there will be results soon." ”
