"Brother, should we send troops to Taishan County to exterminate that puppet Liu Tai?" Gou Chun watched Xu Gong leave and asked Gou Xi.

For Gou Chun, Liu Tai is a cow and horse that came out of nowhere, anyway, he is a rookie to his brother!

This is not that Gou Chun underestimated Liu Tai, but this is Gou Xi's absolute strength to help Sima Yue go from the Eight Kings Rebellion to the champion.

"No hurry!" Gou Xi replied calmly, saying,

"Mount Tai has been lost, Langya is difficult to protect, it really threatens the East China Sea Kingdom, and it depends on whether he Sima is in a hurry or not.

Sima Yue wants us to fight Liu Tai and hand over the Yanzhou assassination history first.

Otherwise, I have an ordinary Qingzhou thorn history, why should I go to Taishan County! The name is not right, the word is not good! ”

Gou Chun knew that his brother was quite dissatisfied with Sima Yue following Pan Tao's advice and not sealing his Yanzhou Thorn History, but sealing his own Qingzhou Thorn History, and now he can have the opportunity to justifiably collect the Yanzhou Thorn History, and his brother will never miss it.

"Brother, if this is the case, will Liu Tai become big in Taishan County?" Gou Chun said worriedly.

"It's okay, it's good to be big, if it's not big, where does the history of Yanzhou come from!" Gou Xi didn't care.

Because in the face of the shrinking circle of the "Rebellion of the Eight Kings", Gou Xi relied on his natural strength to lead Sima Yue to victory.

Gou Xi has already played his invincible momentum, which is probably the level of leading troops to fight and winning twenty battles in a row without losing.

So although Gou Xi is arrogant, he is full of confidence.

Not only him, but even the soldiers under his command all think that Gou Xi will not be defeated, and as long as this undefeated golden body is not broken, then don't say that Gou Xi himself rarely makes mistakes, even if Gou Xi makes mistakes, the soldiers will carry him to victory.

As for his defeat in the first war in history, it cannot be considered his fault.

Because just when he was arranging his troops to prepare to fight with Cao Wei's army, a gust of wind blew, blowing so that the soldiers couldn't open their eyes, and the soldiers couldn't set up the military formation, and then Cao Wei seized the opportunity to defeat him.

The undefeated golden body, as long as it is broken once, the invincible commander will naturally collapse.

Whoever you meet in the future will have to rely on his own level to fight, but when the soldiers know that you are not an invincible commander, they will not fight with the belief that they are invincible.

Therefore, at this moment, Liu Tai seems to have made a lot of contributions when he was in the Xiongnu Han Kingdom, but in the final analysis, it is Liu Tai who has made so many meritorious deeds to be qualified to appear in front of Gou Xi and be noticed by him.

"Should we send soldiers to the border of Mount Tai to station, beware of Liu Tai's army coming to Qingzhou to riot!" Gou Chun couldn't help but ask when he heard Gou Xi's words.

"It doesn't have to be this way!" Gou Xi waved his hand and said, "Just defend normally."

If there were too many soldiers dispatched, it would be bad if Liu Tai was under pressure and did not dare to send troops.

However, I can write a letter to the people in Langya Country, if I am willing to go north to Qingzhou, I am still willing to shelter them! ”

"What do you mean, brother?" Gou Chun couldn't help but think when he heard Gou Xi's words.

"It's impossible for me to tell Sima Yue in person that I want to assassinate Yanzhou!" Gou Xi looked at Gou Chun and said.

When Gou Chun heard this, he couldn't help but laugh and said, "I understand, brother!" ”

Obviously, Gou Xi wanted to use the people in Langya Country and even Xihai Country to remind Sima Yue.

In the end, this Qingzhou has its own existence, but if you want to make your own move, the price can't be low.

Gou Xi is willing to give Liu Tai some time, and he can wait for the price to sell.

As for Liu Tai, because the level is not enough, and at the same time, his understanding of Gou Xi is not deep enough, so he does not know Gou Xi's thoughts.

But in a short period of time, Liu Tai still regarded the defense of Gou Xi as his first important task.

Because Liu Tai knows that as long as the first wave of grain is cultivated, he will no longer sit on the mountain, but become a tiger.

So naturally, at this time, Xie Fei naturally began to be busy flying at the request of Liu Tai, studying various agricultural tools.

Because spring ploughing is imminent, the first thing that needs to be asked is the plough, such as the straight plow.

In the Han Dynasty, there was already a straight plough, which was divided into double and single wheels, which was basically a two-ox carrying type, which was suitable for use in plain areas.

This can ensure that the field plough is straight, easier to control, and the efficiency is higher, and after hundreds of years of improvement, in the Wei and Jin dynasties, the straight plough is not only more simple and perfect in structure, but also more widely used.

At least any craftsman can say that he can very skillfully build a straight plough with a few sticks and an iron plow.

To tell the truth, Liu Tai also knows the Quyuan plow, after all, the performance of the Quyuan plow is superior to the straight plow, and it will definitely replace the straight plow.

But it is undeniable that after hundreds of years of development, the straight plough has been quite perfect, from production to use to officials, down to the people, all are clear, and even some people can build themselves.

Therefore, Liu Tai knew very well that he was not going to invent any curved plough at this time, but to ensure the supply of straight plough first.

That is to go directly to the assembly line.

To be honest, it is really not a simple matter for people in this era to get on the assembly line.

Although the whole country has unified weights and measures, if you want the people below to carry out the assembly line, it is basically a standard for one craftsman.

If you ask them what standard is, they will answer in two words.

After all, the craftsmen Liu Tai got were not for the emperors, they couldn't do it at all, and they almost had to lose their heads for the whole family.

Working under Liu Tai, if you say that you have this awareness, you will look up to them.

Liu Tai could only ask Xie Fei to disassemble the project of the straight plough first, hand over each step to an engineering master, let a group of them build and complete the two straight ploughs together, and then let them disassemble them, disrupted the parts inside, and put them together again into two straight ploughs.

Then a straight plough is dismantled, and each person takes a part back, and the apprentices who follow them make the corresponding parts according to this part, and they act as supervisors to identify the quality and specifications of each part.

I have to say that this kind of thing is the most common tool popularized by the people at the bottom in ancient times, so even if the apprentice polishes these parts, it is not very difficult.

When they sent their respective parts one by one, soon the built plows were sent by Liu Tai to the collective farms everywhere.

As for the more basic people, if they want to, they have to go to the government to rent, but in this case, both livestock and iron tools are quite scarce.

Therefore, after passing through this kind of assembly line and producing enough equipment, the whole agency team went to study the equipment instead of producing the equipment.

Liu Tai also felt helpless about this scene, but he was also helpless, if he wanted to improve productivity, he really didn't just blow up the assembly line.

In the final analysis, assembly line production is just a mode of production, and sometimes even if the mode of production is improved, the level of productivity cannot keep up, and the production relationship will be obediently beaten back.

Like now, even if the whole society is more familiar with the straight plow, Liu Tai wants to speed up the production efficiency a little, but the entire industrial line is not enough to make plowshares for the upper steel, and the lower ploughing cattle cannot keep up with the efficiency of the straight plow.

Seeing Xie Fei's joy at the moment because of the arrangement of the assembly line, a large number of straight plows were produced, Liu Tai pressed his head, but he understood that the improvement of productivity was really not achieved overnight.

In particular, the production efficiency of the most basic industrial raw materials is not improved, and if you want to improve productivity, this is not a dream!

And wanting to develop these things from scratch in ancient times, Liu Tai couldn't help but press his head.

Any basic industry occupies a lot of capital, the construction period is long, and the human resources required in the initial stage are even more massive.

You must occupy at least one state, preferably with a site for coal and iron mines, and there must be abundant water sources around.

In this era of underdeveloped transportation, it is a necessary requirement to develop basic industries.

Liu Tai pressed his temples, still don't think about such a thing that makes his head hurt, and said to Xie Fei:

"Xie Fei, you come to help study the plough and stone mill!"

"General Liu, what are the requirements for this?" Xie Fei said with a little doubt.

"The straight plough wasn't enough, I wanted to add something to it that could accommodate the different needs of deep and shallow ploughing. You can grow crops in any corner, push the soil aside, turn over clods of soil to cut off the growth of weeds, and more! ”

"As for the stone mill, the main thing is that winter wheat is too unpalatable. I know that the stone mill already exists, can I make something on the basis of the stone mill to speed up the grinding speed, or reduce the grinding cost and so on.

After all, there are more than 10,000 people in our army, and if we are forced to eat wheat in the future, let alone them, even if I am afraid, I will rebel! ”

"My subordinates are going to study it!" Xie Fei heard Liu Tai's words, but replied to Liu Tai quite humbly.

"Think more! Think of more machinery that will help you march or increase your production! Liu Tai said seriously.

"My subordinates must think too much!" Xie Fei nodded again and again when he heard Liu Tai's words.

Liu Tai nodded at Xie Fei, but didn't say anything more.

After all, Liu Tai also knows that it is one thing to invent something so that this thing can be circulated on the market, and it is another thing to circulate it on the market until this thing is completely mature.

Invention and creation are naturally good things, and even Liu Tai appreciates it very much.

But Liu Tai knows that good things may not be able to be implemented, and the cost of resistance during the period is actually not only the thing itself.

If you want to promote a new thing, if there is no suitable opportunity, then you can only work slowly, up to the officials, down to the people, you must have a unified understanding, and even the government has to give them supporting assistance, in order to quickly promote a thing.

Of course, even if it is promoted, it is still very likely to be instinctively resisted by the old forces.

This is a bit like everyone knows that it will become inevitable for new energy vehicles to replace oil vehicles, but this is a gradual process, rather than directly banning oil cars and letting people all drive electric cars.

And the same is true for the Quyuan plough to replace the straight plow, not to mention that the Quyuan plough has not really been invented now.

Even if it is invented, it is necessary to have a gradual process to let the people accept the curved plough and abandon the straight plow.

Of course, the most important thing is that for Liu Tai, there are not enough people who can quickly accept new things!

Liu Tai knocked on his seat, stood up and wanted to find Chu Yi over, but after thinking for a while, he sat down again, then raised his head and said to the waiter next to him, "Where are those arrested sons?" ”

The waiter beside him showed a smile that our general had finally grown up, and then said:

"The son-in-law and the dancers are all placed on the stage together, do you need to call the dancers together?"

Liu Tai shook his head when he heard this and said, "I just need to invite the sons-in-law." ”

The son-in-law, who was called the daughters of the princes in the past, is now used more to refer to other people's daughters, but for Liu Tai, he wants to consciously distinguish these literate women from ordinary women, so he takes the initiative to call them sons-in-law.

Of course, when they really become teachers who teach Mengxue, then Liu Tai is also willing to call them Mr. Woman.

Soon, these women were led by the guards to Liu Tai's mansion, and at this moment they were trembling and bowing their heads, and no one dared to raise their heads.

After all, these women can read and write, and they are basically children of families, but their father and brother were either killed by Liu Tai on the battlefield, or they had fled Taishan County and left them behind.

For them, their original dreams of the future have long been shattered in this troubled world, and to some extent, Liu Tai can even be regarded as their biggest enemy.

But Liu Tai doesn't care, whether they hate themselves or want to kill themselves, they just have the ability to come.

But they are just women, and if they want to live in this world, they can only listen to Liu Tai.

Liu Tai looked at the son-in-law in front of him, to be honest, there are not many people, only about thirty.

But for Liu Tai, this group of people is illiterate people outside the plan, and it is really not easy to come.

Liu Tai looked at this group of women and said slowly, "Let's raise our heads!" ”

When these women heard Liu Tai's words, they raised their heads slightly, and when they saw Liu Tai, their eyes were more or less surprised, after all, Liu Tai's age, in their opinion, was still a little young.

Liu Tai continued, "You are really lucky, you are all women who have read books, so I will give you two paths."

One way, just like the women who were captured a few days ago, were selected by the heroes in my army, to be slaves and concubines, I don't care, I am left to fend for myself, I don't interfere! ”

Hearing Liu Tai's words, these women couldn't help but shudder, obviously full of despair for their future lives.

"General, the other way!" A woman didn't know where she got the courage to speak out.

Liu Tai glanced at her, but said, "On the other way, I will set up a private school to recruit children under the age of ten."

Your task is to take care of these children, teach them simple arithmetic and writing, and of course, the Book of Han.

You will be the female gentlemen of these children, and you will have the qualifications to live in this world even if you do not depend on men.

Of course, if I'm not dead! ”

Liu Taihuai smiled, but said slowly: "Now, your own fate, you choose for yourself!" ”
