Chapter 40: How Strong Is Great Qin?

"Let's directly take the Nubian country, establish my Carthage status, and then develop science and technology while encroaching on the surrounding small countries in turn to obtain system rewards, this is the only way."

Hannibal Ka pulled out the dagger and licked it with his tongue, and the cold light of the dagger shone brightly, setting off his whole person in horror.

At the same time, there was an extremely strong evil aura coming out of his body.

The three families were all in business, but their responsibilities were different, the Di family was in charge of scientific and technological research and development, the Mei family was in charge of economic transactions, and the Hannibal family was in charge of the slave trade.

The slaves who died at his hands, if not a million but hundreds of thousands, were ruthless characters and most admired war.

"Now not only should we not declare war on Rome, but we should show weakness to the enemy, push it to the forefront, and arouse the hostility of other countries, but I ...... I'm really unwilling! ”

The head of the Di family clenched his fists, his eyes were red, and the killing intent in his heart was intense.

The most beloved daughter and youngest son, all died at the hands of Yingtian, how can you not be angry, if you can, I can't wait to take someone to kill it now, and Yingtian will be cut by a thousand knives.

But he represents not only himself, but also the 20 million people of Carthage, who can't make a big deal out of petty intolerance.

Sometimes, the higher the position, the less you can do what you want, and you will lose something while gaining something.

"Brother Di, I have wronged you this time, I promise you that after I defeat Daqin, I will definitely hand this son into your hands and let you kill him with your own hands to repay the hatred in my heart." The head of the Mei family opened his mouth and comforted.

I'm really afraid that he will be angry and lead the army directly to kill him.

"You say, can you set up a game, gather the kings and traversers of the surrounding countries, and then annihilate them in one fell swoop, so that you can win without a fight."

Hannibal Ka's eyes lit up and he spoke sharply.

In response, the other two heads of the house looked at him like idiots.

They protected Luo Fan impenetrably, don't other countries know this truth?

After the advent of the national war system, the kings and traversers of various countries received the highest level of protection, and almost never put themselves in danger at the same time, for fear of being wiped out.

Once the traverser and the king are dead, no matter how powerful they are, they are useless.

This is the same reason that the remnants of the Six Kingdoms often think about assassinating Brother Zheng, as long as Brother Zheng dies, he can restore the country.

"Forget it, I'll leave the matter of using my brain to you, just tell me what to do after you think about it, I'm not good at strategy."

Hannibal Ka smiled awkwardly, didn't say anything more, put the dagger back on his waist, pushed the door and walked out.

Very self-aware, knowing that he is not good at strategy, most of the time he is a thug.

"By the way, remember to find someone to release the news, just say that we are willing to admit defeat and admit that our strength is not as good as Rome."

The voice of the head of the Mei family sounded.

He was a businessman, he never cared about face, as long as he could pull Rome off the horse, it didn't matter.

A sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth, but he wanted to see how long Yingtian could live, and see if he could continue to sing and advance under the gaze of so many pairs of eyes.

As for the Roman attack......

The long journey plus the conquest of other countries, the outcome is not easy to say, and he believes that Yingtian will never make such an idiotic decision.

The cost of the road was astronomical, and even Rome could not bear it.

"Brother Di, how is the development of science and technology, this matter is the top priority, if we take the lead in developing science and technology, naturally we will not take Rome in our eyes."

The head of the Mei family picked up the tea he had bought at a high price from Rome, took a sip of it, and asked softly.

"With the help of Luo Fan, it took four days to successfully invent cement, but the steel bar is still being studied, and even if there are drawings, it has been a failure to build."

The head of the Di family spread his hands helplessly.

Almost all the blacksmiths at their disposal were used, and there were not many Carthaginian blacksmiths, and their iron-smelting skills were not developed, which made it difficult to succeed.

"Was it only cement that was invented? The speed is a little slow, and then you have to pay more attention to it, and you have to speed up the pace of development. Old man Mei said in a low voice.

If reinforced concrete soil can come out, the city wall can be reinforced, and it can be invincible, and the use of reinforced concrete soil can also create a lot of siege weapons.

The head of the Di family added: "Papermaking, printing, coarse salt purification, and distilled liquor, these four technologies have all been successfully developed, but they are ......."

"Due to the scarcity of craftsmen, the output is low, and it is almost impossible to improve people's livelihood in a short period of time."

In ancient times, both in the East and in the West, there was a common characteristic, the low status of craftsmen.

This has led to a scarcity of craftsmen, and in a short period of time, it is more difficult to develop light industry than to ascend to the sky.

Thankfully, this is true for all countries, on the same starting line.

It's a pity that it is impossible to guess how many craftsmen there are in Daqin, if you let the two of them know, there are more than seven million craftsmen in Daqin...... I'm scared to death.

In fact.

At the beginning of Daqin, there were not many craftsmen, and even hundreds of craftsmen could not be found in the huge Shaofu, and it took nearly fifteen years to gradually develop under the strong call of Yingtian.

This is still supported by Brother Zheng's sparing no effort, and he has tried his best to disagree many times, otherwise it will take longer.

"Papermaking and printing are put aside first, and all the craftsmen who can be used are used to study steel and iron-smelting technology, these are the most important things."

Old man Mei said thoughtfully.

Papermaking and printing can rule the minds of the people, but this is a subtle process, and it is difficult to play a role in a short period of time.

But iron smelting is different, once a country takes the lead in researching iron tools, it can take the lead.

The iron weapons were at least two grades more advanced than the weapons they were using now.

What is not recorded in the history books is that the West at the same time did not master the bronze smelting technology, and was still in the stage of transition between bronze and stone.

"Yingtian first said that he had 10,000 people in his hands, and then said that he had 300,000 troops, I don't know how many there are, I really want to lead the army to kill it."

The head of the Di family changed his words, his eyes fell on the map, and his whole heart was dripping blood.

Di Feng is the heir he has worked so hard to cultivate, and he was killed by Yingtian like this, not to mention how sad he is.

The reason why he desperately developed science and technology was not only for the sake of the people, but also because he wanted to avenge his son, and he personally twisted off Yingzheng's head.

"I think we have overlooked an important issue, Brother Di, look here, according to Luo Fan, this place is called Daqin, and it is the place where Yingtian came."

"Since Great Qin can fight across the sea, how strong will they be? The national war system continues to develop...... One day, we will meet. ”

The head of the Mei family took a deep breath and stared at the Qin State on the map, feeling a little mixed in his heart.

I don't know if it's an illusion, just the word Daqin, it's like a big mountain pressing on my heart, making people breathless.
