Chapter 22: The Minister is Incompetent
The young emperor Liu Bian was bathed in blood, and his yellow robe was messy, like a mad lion.
"Leave half of the people, summon Jing Zhaoyin, check, I only need one truth."
Hearing this, Gao Shun's heart beat wildly, as if he saw a river of blood.
The Son of Heaven was furious, and the corpse was thousands of miles away.
………………
The suburbs of the capital.
Dong Zhuo is inspecting his forging mill.
Of the ten forging mills, three were arranged by Dong Zhuo near Kyoto, and the rest were all placed in his old nest.
There are three in Bingzhou and four in Liangzhou.
At the same time, the production of steel began at full capacity.
"Sangkook, please see."
"New technology is the blast furnace steelmaking, a special refractory material that can withstand better temperatures, and the blast furnace can make more full use of iron ore."
"Originally, only one or two hundred catties could be produced for one or two hundred catties, but now the remnants of the ore can be squeezed out to the greatest extent."
The person in charge of the factory introduced Dong Zhuo in front.
At the same time, it splashed iron flowers for Dong Zhuo's place.
"What is the daily output now?"
Dong Zhuo is most concerned about output.
"The output of 1,000 catties of steel a day is ten times that of before."
The person in charge looked at Dong Zhuo proudly.
Dong Zhuo looked at the person in charge expressionlessly.
His eyes narrowed slightly.
"How much?"
"Kilograms. Ten times the previous one. ”
The person in charge straightened his chest, expecting Dong Zhuo's praise.
A thousand pounds a day.
At this rate, is it still ten times as much as before?
Dong Zhuo was powerless to complain.
In the past, the output of any small steel factory was dozens or hundreds of times that of this.
Dong Zhuo nodded wordlessly.
Keep looking back.
One process after another, each process takes up a lot of manpower.
The bareback man struggled to stir the molten steel.
From time to time, people poured some unknown substance into it.
Soon the color of the pot of molten steel began to change.
After a few more moments, the molten steel is introduced to the next process.
Looking at them one by one, Dong Zhuo stayed in the factory directly all morning.
Then we came to the place where the weapons were forged.
Here, all of them will be turned into murderous weapons.
Pieces of armor leaves appear under the hands of the craftsman.
Then he handed it to the other one, the red steel wire, and stretched out his hand to pull it into rings without care, and then put the nail leaf on while it was hot.
Just now, thick calluses have been burned out on his hands, and the fingers are thick and terrible.
Dong Zhuo watched the craftsman skillfully operate.
I estimated in my heart how long it would take for an armor to take.
On the other side, two masters are working together to forge a long knife.
With a pleasant clanging sound, a piece of steel gradually deformed and lengthened, and finally took on the appearance of a slender blade.
Mo knife, the pattern given by Dong Zhuo.
The appearance of the Mo knife can be said to be the limit of cold weapons.
Dong Zhuo is confident that the soldiers who pretend to be Mo knives can defeat three with one.
It is even possible to break the cavalry with infantry.
The slender and heavy blade can split the oncoming war horse with a single sword.
Just as Dong Zhuo was inspecting to the end, someone suddenly came in a hurry.
whispered beside Dong Zhuo.
"Xiangguo, this morning, the Son of Heaven was stabbed in the royal street, wounded, and his life was unharmed."
When Dong Zhuo heard this, his eyes immediately stood up.
The Son of Heaven was stabbed?
This young emperor, if he doesn't trouble him, he still can't live in peace.
After all, this history has to change because of my appearance.
Dong Zhuo immediately summoned the guards.
Get in the carriage and head to the palace.
At this time, the most important thing is to show loyalty and prove that you have nothing to do with the assassination.
When Dong Zhuo's carriage entered the palace, he was rarely stopped once.
It took a while before he was released.
Dong Zhuo's face was gloomy.
The expressionless appearance made Huang Men feel a lot of pressure.
The carriage did not stop along the way, and I knew the emperor's bedroom.
As soon as he got out of the carriage, Dong Zhuo made a scared look.
"Your Majesty, how is Your Majesty? The minister's escort is late, and he hopes that His Majesty will atone for his sins. ”
Dong Zhuo howled and rushed in.
As soon as he entered, Dong Zhuo fell down with a pop, and when he didn't hurry to get up, Dong Zhuo looked at Liu Zhuo.
At this moment, Liu Bianzheng was lying on the bed weakly, his face was pale, and his shoulders were wrapped in layers.
Next to him stood an imperial physician carrying a medicine box.
A strong medicinal smell permeated the room.
"Your Majesty, the minister's rescue is too late, and the crime deserves death, Your Majesty."
Dong Zhuo simply howled and cried.
Liu Bian blinked, a little unresponsive, and then hurriedly ordered Huangmen to help Dong Zhuo up.
"Xiangguo doesn't have to worry, the rebels have all been hanged, and I have nothing to do."
Liu Wei said a word, and he almost couldn't get angry.
When Dong Zhuo heard this, his face slowed down slightly.
Then the way of self-repudiation.
"It's all the minister's fault, if the minister doesn't advise His Majesty to recruit troops on a large scale, causing panic among the princes, Your Majesty will not be assassinated."
Liu Yan blinked, and said with a positive color.
"The recruitment of sergeants is my consent, and Xiangguo does not have to blame himself."
"Listening to Xiangguo's meaning, you already know who the assassin is?"
When Dong Zhuo heard this, he looked at Liu Yan seriously.
"I don't know who it is, but it's not hard to speculate."
Liu Yan immediately slapped the bed hard.
looked at Dong Zhuo angrily.
"Please also ask Xiangguo to find out the reason, immediately send troops and strangle all the traitors."
"Let all those involved in this matter, all, all raid their homes and exterminate the nine clans."
If it weren't for his carefulness, if it weren't for the fact that there was a concubine in the carriage, he was pulled in front of him and blocked the dense rain of arrows.
At this moment he was already a corpse.
This is Liu Bian's most direct threat of death, and the fear of death completely covers all his sanity.
He wants to make everyone involved die.
Liu Bian roared angrily, his hand kept beating on the bed.
Strenuous exercise accidentally pulls the wound.
made him cough violently, and his face was hideous in pain.
Dong Zhuo looked at Liu Yan, who was extremely angry, and his face was unusually calm.
Liu Bian recovered from his anger and immediately noticed the abnormality on Dong Zhuo's face.
"Is there a dilemma for Xiangguo? But it doesn't hurt to say that. ”
Liu Fan waved his hand and said confidently.
Dong Zhuo hesitated for a moment and bowed.
"I hope Your Majesty will forgive your sins, the minister is incompetent."
