"The king, the minister recommends General Bai Qi!"

"The minister seconded the proposal!"

"The king, the minister recommends General Zhang Xuan!"

"The ministers seconded it!"

"The king, the minister recommends General Wang Qian!"

This time, he did not disappoint the prince, his voice fell, and immediately a minister opened his mouth to recommend him. Soon, the candidates recommended by the ministers were concentrated on three people.

Speaking of which, the three people recommended by the ministers are also very interesting. From the perspective of commander's ability, the three are actually qualified. However, Wang Jian is older and belongs to the older generation of generals.

And Zhang Jiang is young, only in his early thirties, which seems to be a little lacking as a general in the army who commands an army of 400,000.

It's white, the age is right, and the ability is there, so it seems to be the best candidate. However, Bai Qi also has a problem that makes King Qin entangled, that is, this guy loves to kill, likes to slaughter enemy soldiers, and does not like to take prisoners.

"My lord, the old minister has a suggestion!" The one who spoke was an old man in his sixties, with white hair. The status of this old man is not low, and when it comes to seniority, he is still Uncle Kuma, the uncle of King Qin. Although Uncle Kuma was the uncle of King Qin, he generally did not express any opinions in the court. This time, this old Uncle Wang suddenly spoke, which also made Qin Wangzheng feel a little surprised.

"Uncle Wang, please speak!" For this old Uncle Wang, Qin Wangzheng still respects him very much, because in the process of his ascension to the throne, this Uncle Wang still played a very important role, and it can be said that if it were not for the earliest recognition of this Uncle Wang, his position would not have been able to sit down so quickly.

"The king, as far as the old man knows, the eldest prince Fusu happens to be in the western Xinjiang. The king can appoint Bai Qi as the commander, and at the same time appoint the eldest prince as the military supervisor, there should be no problem! Uncle Wang didn't explain much, but just gave a suggestion of his own. However, after Qin Wangzheng heard this, he immediately understood what Uncle Wang meant.

Bai Qi is thirsty for killing, and the eldest prince Fusu has a gentle personality, and the personalities of the two can complement each other. However, Qin Wangzheng was still a little hesitant in his heart, because he was worried that the eldest prince might not be able to suppress Bai Qi at the critical moment.

"Summoned, Ling Bai Qi is the general of the Zhu State, the commander of the Western Army, Zhang Jiang is the general of the Zhu State, and the deputy commander of the Western Army; The eldest prince Fusu was the military envoy of the Western Army. Three days later, the army was directly marched at Hangu Pass, and each department performed its duties to ensure the victory of the army! ”

After the Qin Dynasty was balanced, he still adopted the advice of the old uncle Wang and appointed Fusu as the military envoy. However, to be on the safe side, he also appointed an additional deputy marshal Zhang Xuan. Although Zhang Jiang is young, his personality is very stable. In fact, Qin Wangzheng originally planned to let Wang Jian go, but Wang Jian was really old, and he was afraid that he would not have enough energy to go to the western frontier.

The execution and action of the Great Qin Imperial Court are still very fast, and the 400,000 army will soon be assembled at the set time, and the relevant materials will be in place. In fact, without waiting for the army to set off together, the 50,000-strong army of the vanguard had already left Hangu Pass a day earlier and headed straight for the western frontier.

At the same time, the order to appoint the eldest prince Fusu as the military envoy was almost in the hands of Fusu, because the edict was issued three days earlier than the time when the army set off, and the edict took only three days on the road from Xianyang to Chishui City in Yumen County.

After receiving the imperial edict, the eldest prince Fusu didn't have to worry about it anymore. Now, he had enough reason to leave Chishui City first, because he needed to go and join Bai Qi's army.

Not to mention that after the eldest prince Fusu received the edict, he quickly left Chishui City with a group of guards and went straight to the direction of Bai Qi's army.

However, he said that Ma Shuo also made full use of this time to sort out the various chores in the cottage, focusing on the standardized requirements and rectification of each workshop. With the increase in the number of people under Ma Shuo's command, the requirements for various workshops are also constantly expanding.

In this case, standardized and efficient management is particularly important.

At present, Ma Shuo focuses on the ironmaking workshop and the weapons workshop. Of course, the two workshops are closely related, and without high-quality steel raw materials, high-quality weapons cannot be talked about. With the help of a secret base in the Barbarian Zone, Ma Shuo has successfully controlled the iron ore source and secured the source of raw materials.

In terms of weapons, Ma Shuo focused on the development of crossbow arrows and high-quality combat knives. In this period, the main weapons of Daqin were still bronze. Ma Shuo didn't have that much copper, so he focused on developing iron weapons, and in fact high-quality iron weapons were much sharper than bronze weapons.

Of course, it is not an easy task to develop crossbow arrows with burst fire and high-quality combat knives. Therefore, using the free time of these few days, Ma Shuo taught the relevant knowledge he knew to those craftsmen, and the next practice needed to be completed by these craftsmen.

At present, the main products of the weapon workshop are still ordinary bows and arrows and ordinary iron sabers. However, even so, the quality of the weapons under Ma Shuo's command is already much higher than that of the border army. In fact, the last time Li Mu led the border army to help, he had already discovered the secret of Ma Shuo's weapons.

However, Li Mu did not make this matter public, but found Ma Shuo in private, and after some negotiation, an agreement was reached, that is, Ma Shuo was responsible for providing Li Mu with a batch of iron sabers to equip the cavalry under Li Mu's command.

In fact, Ma Shuo's private creation of iron weapons can be regarded as a loophole in the Great Qin Imperial Court. Because the mainstream weapons of the Great Qin are still bronze, the Great Qin court still has a very strict control over the casting of bronze weapons, but there is no special control over the creation of iron weapons, because in the eyes of the Great Qin court, the people do not have the ability to build iron weapons on a large scale.

Because the imperial court did not allow it, Ma Shuo's practice was not illegal. However, Ma Shuo also knows very well that this kind of thing cannot be done in a grand manner. Therefore, the reason why he agreed to provide Li Mu with an iron saber was also to pull Li Mu into the water. When the time comes, the court will investigate it, and Ma Shuo can also use Li Mu as a shield, of course, it is not Li Mu, but the border army behind Li Mu. This is because as far as the border army is concerned, they are qualified to independently develop new weapons, and this is the prerogative of the border army.

In fact, the reason why Ma Shuo took over Li Mu's appointment as captain of ten thousand was also due to this consideration. He has the identity of a border army, and many things can be regarded as having an excuse and identity, and when the time comes, the court will really know, and he can also get out.

Of course, Ma Shuo's peaceful days in the cottage are destined to not last!

Because, Li Lingwei and they finally made a decision-
