78 Smuggling of ordnance
As soon as this statement came out, it shocked everyone!
Xiong Wuliang was so shocked that his eyes were about to fall out, and he even forgot the heat of the weather for a while: "Yue Wang is surprised? ”
Ji snorted lightly, seemingly satisfied with Xiong Wuliang's expression.
Xiong Wu is stupid.
This is shocking, and the courage is inevitably too great!
In the state of Chu, he did not recognize the identity of the 'King of Yue'. The whole state of Chu regarded Xi as 'the remnants of the Yue Kingdom who escaped by luck', and they wanted to get rid of it quickly.
This guy actually came to the mansion of himself, the great feudal monarch of the Chu State, and did not hide his identity in the slightest.
I don't know whether to praise a word of courage or a sentence of stupidity.
Xiong Wuliang saw the cheap old man, and he didn't know what to say for a while.
After reacting for a long time, I finally remembered how to start a less awkward topic with my father-in-law-
"That...... Did you bring the ransom of 30,000 gold? ”
All:......
"Look at the widow's head, how much is it worth?" After a short period of speechlessness, Ji said coldly.
Xiong Wuliang shook his head again and again: "It's worth a little bit now, and it won't be worth much in another year and a half." ”
She was stunned for a moment.
I really can't argue with that.
Clear-eyed people know that Ji Jing is just a temporary puppet used by the Qi people for transition, as short as one year or as long as two years, and this puppet king who is not recognized by the Central Plains countries will disappear forever in the long river of history.
Ji flicked her sleeves in annoyance: "Where is the little girl?" ”
Xiong Wuliang waved his hand silently, and the soldiers on the side led him to the backyard...... Soon, there was a voice of surprise from behind......
Xiong Wuliang was numb.
After thousands of calculations, I didn't expect this old guy to come to the door in person...... I don't know how I will discredit myself with Jiyi.
After a long time.
Ji was shocked to return to the left room, and Shi Shiran sat in front of Xiong Wuliang.
"It's just a yellow-mouthed."
"I didn't expect the widow to fold in your hands...... What a shame! He seemed to be angry and said fiercely.
Xiong Wuliang smiled: "Uh, concede." ”
Ji said coldly: "The widow didn't bring the ransom, so let the little girl stay in your house!" ”
Although his tone was cold and hard, there was a trace of tenderness in his frightened pupils.
He was shocked to have many children, but in the civil strife in Vietnam a few years ago, he died and disappeared.
By the time he gained a firm foothold in the turmoil of the Yue Kingdom and became a dignified 'shake king', he had already become a loner.
Unexpectedly, now I can find the whereabouts of a daughter, which makes Ji surprised and happy.
As for his fate, he was shocked and thought clearly.
As a puppet of the Qi State, although he escaped the onslaught of the Chu State at that time, he was only a slow death.
The only daughter who is left with her, if she takes it with her, she may be cut down by the Qi State, or used as a concubine by a great nobleman of the Qi State......
Now it seems that Ji Yi is doing quite well here in Quyang Jun Miliang, and it doesn't look like she has been bullied...... Xiong Wuliang is still very good to his daughter.
Let's just stay in the Chu State!
……
Seeing that he was shocked and wanted to get up and leave, Xiong Wuliang suddenly spoke: "Wait!" ”
The last king of the Yue Kingdom has also won the respect of Xiong Wuliang.
Whether it was the old spicy shake king on the battlefield or the warm father in front of him, Xiong Wuliang was emotional.
If he was born a few decades ago, he may not be a generation of heroes who revitalized the country of Yue.
Ji Jing stood still, looked at Xiong Wuliang, and a hint of mockery flashed at the corner of his mouth: "What, do you still want to stay behind?" ”
Xiong Wuliang coughed lightly: "Don't dare." ”
"It's just that this gentleman has something to discuss with the king!"
"Dare to ask King Yue - do you really want to sit still and wait to be killed?"
She was stunned, only her pupils flickered imperceptibly.
Xiong Wuliang didn't speak, just looked at him quietly.
After the strange silence lasted for a long time, Ji Jingcai finally took the lead in speaking, breaking the silence in the room: "Qi is the country of dominating the world, what else can you do?" ”
Xiong Wuliang remained silent, just smiled.
There was another moment of silence, and he finally couldn't help it: "The widow wants the weapons of the Chu army, you can make a price!" ”
……
What he said in his mouth was, of course, not the standard weapon of the soldiers of the Chu State.
It's the weapons that the Quyang Army and the Shaohu Army are equipped with!
Repeater! Arrows! Iron swords, armor!
These sophisticated weapons, which belong exclusively to Xiong Wuliang, made the shaking king under Jianyang City suffer a lot.
Ji was shocked and thought about it, but he couldn't imagine that he had made any mistakes in his decision to attack Jianyang and cut off the retreat of the Chu army...... If the only mistake is to underestimate the combat effectiveness of Xiong Wuliang's troops.
Although Yue Guo is small at the moment, there are also 300 miles north of Yushan, and there are hundreds of thousands of people.
If you can have such a powerful weapon as Chu State in your hand, it is also a hard bone to bite, and if Qi Guo wants to start, it will at least take some setbacks.
Xiong Wuliang smiled, and he didn't bother to go around in circles with the person in front of him: "I want iron ore!" ”
To the south of the current royal city of the Pseudo-Yue Kingdom [Langya], there is an iron mine!
Although it is not as good as Yiyang Iron Mountain, which has been taken away from the Koreans by the Qin people, it is also a big mine that Xiong Wuliang is greedy for!
It was precisely because of this iron mine that Xiong Wuliang was so angry at Qi Guo's act of picking peaches, and even set a fire in the middle of the night to vent his anger.
Ji was shocked and didn't blink: "Okay! ”
"I want crossbows, arrows, your iron armor, and swords!"
Xiong Wuliang laughed, and he was visibly affectionate!
"Repeaters are given away for free, and arrows need to be bought."
The crossbow is something that can be imitated, Xiong Wuliang didn't bother to ask for the price, just send it directly - anyway, the number of arrows consumed by the crossbow is huge, and the traditional handmade arrows can't meet the demand at all, so in the end he can only buy arrows from himself.
It can be fished back.
"As for swords, armor and other materials made of 100 iron smelting, I need ten times the weight of iron ore!" Xiong Wuliang waved his hand.
Ji Zhen's eyes turned green: "Ten times the weight? ”
"Why don't you grab it?"
Xiong Wu smiled unscrupulously: "The king is not strange...... If you are not satisfied with the price, you can go out and turn right and ask other ......"
I've got you!
Removing the impurities in the iron ore, a piece of 100 smelted iron is at most twice the weight of iron ore.
Xiong Wuliang directly opened his mouth, ten times more!
The hundred smelted iron that is repeatedly forged by machinery in his own fiefdom can be regarded as a dimensionality reduction blow in this era when most people are still using bronze weapons.
Only this one, no other semicolon, love to buy or not!
And Xiong Wuliang also hid a hand - Shi Er has studied the process of blast furnace ironmaking, and the iron fired by this blast furnace is infinitely close to steel.
Just sell the 100-smelting iron equipment of the active equipment of the Quyang Army and the Shaohu Army to Ji Jing, in exchange for a large amount of iron ore, and upgrade the equipment of the whole army!
Ji stared at Xiong Wuliang in shock.
The expression on the latter's face did not waver.
After a moment, Ji Jing took a deep breath: "When and where to trade?" ”
