Three Kingdoms: The Yellow Turbans finally revolt

Chapter 327 Bohai King’s New Killer—Iron Buddha Tu
Hearing Jia Xu's words, Dong Zhuo frowned deeply.

Do you still want to die?

"Wenhe, is this really the case? If Hu Zhen dies, how should we explain to the [-] Xiliang soldiers?"

Jia Xu remained stern, and analyzed rationally: "Dong Gong, if he breaks his faith in the world, Dong Gong may have to face more than [-] enemies. I think that the urgent proposal of the King of Bohai is precisely for Dong Gong. Think about it."

To punish Hu Zhen for his own sake?Dong Zhuo thought about it, and after a long time, he said, "Then Wen He will be troubled."

……

The new south gate of Yecheng, at this time, the city gate wall has been continuously expanded, and it has been more than [-] meters outward. If the angle is right, you can see the future appearance of the new city wall of Yecheng at a glance.

On this day, the banners of the Xinnanmen were unfurled, and there was a din of people. Two trains of oxen, horses and food carts ran parallel along the official road to the end of the horizon, attracting many passers-by entering and leaving the city to stop.

"Gongming, this is your first time in Yecheng! I'll take a hot bath later, and I'll show you a lot!" Zhang Liao laughed while riding on the horse.

"I didn't expect Jizhou to have such a majestic city wall. It's the first time I've seen it!" Xu Huang looked up at the huge wall bricks and the city tower above, secretly admiring.

"Actually, although the original Ye County was the seat of Jizhou, the urban area was larger, and the city walls were not too high. It was mainly in the hinterland, so there was no need to build it so high." Zhang Liao replied.

"Look, that's - the lord is here!" Xu Huang exclaimed in surprise, "Go, go see the lord!"

The two riders strode forward and ran towards Liu Qing who was coming out of the door.

Liu Qing was leading Dian Wei and a dozen guards behind him to meet Zhang Liao. When he saw the two coming, he said loudly, "Wen Yuan, Gong Ming, you have worked hard for the two generals. This king has already hosted a banquet in the mansion to welcome the two triumphant returnees." !"

"Thank you, my lord!" The two generals said together.

Liu Qing turned his horse's head, and the two generals followed closely behind and entered the city together.

"Wen Yuan, I heard that [-] cavalrymen of yours defeated the [-] Yellow Turban army? Great! Tell me about the battle process."

Zhang Liao smiled awkwardly, "My lord is joking, how dare you compare with my lord's army of more than ten riders and only thirty thousand troops!"

Liu Qing smiled and said nothing, hehe in his heart, Bo was the defeated army at the end of the crossbow, different from the He Man and He Yi armies that Zhang Liao defeated head-on, these two armies waited for Zhang Liao at leisure, this battle showed the The real hard power of Zhang Liao's army, however, comes at a high price, with a loss of nearly [-]%, and a tough battle with few enemies, this is unavoidable, and it is not easy to win a big victory.

"Wen Yuan, this trip is really difficult. Go to the new barracks tomorrow, and you will personally select additional cavalry! Also, Gong Ming, go to the camp tomorrow and see if the king will give you soldiers!"

When Xu Huang heard it, he was immediately happy. He had been with the King of Bohai for a year, almost seconded, seconded, his own soldiers, but the original hundred and ten Baibo troops now finally have their own soldiers.

"Thank you, my lord!" Xu Huang was overjoyed and thanked loudly.

"Did you see Zilong on the road?" Liu Qing asked.

Zhang Liao and Xu Huang looked at each other and shook their heads, "My lord, General Gao has been with us all this time, and we haven't seen Zilong."

"Zilong should go straight to Yingchuan. By this time, he should have arrived."

"Master, what happened to Yingchuan?"

Speaking of Yingchuan, Liu Qing has a headache, Xun Yu's family is facing threats, and his condition has not been good recently. After all, no one can be as free and easy as Guo Jia. After being ridiculed for a long time, he has become heartless. Now he has nothing to worry about, even if he is worried, it is for Xun Yu.

Of course, Xun Cai is the most troublesome one. If she was in a bad mood, Liu Qing thought that she should not be left out, and would hug her to sleep and give her a little more warmth. However, she is too concerned about her family and is in poor condition.

In the middle of the charge, he suddenly told Liu Qing to think of a way to save the Xun family.

Alas, the biggest sin of a woman is that she wants too much...

Liu Qing sighed and replied: "It's nothing, Zilong should be able to handle it well."

In the second half of the day, there was a banquet in the mansion, and the soldiers drank happily. Liu Qing didn't drink much, and found that Xun Yu didn't attend the banquet, so Xi Zhi said that Xun Yu went to stockpile food.

It's true, he is the governor of Jizhou, and he is also in charge of farming, so there is so much food and grass, so naturally he has to arrange for it.

The inside of the mansion was extremely lively, and the outside of the mansion was full of people's voices. Many people surrounded the city wall, chirping and talking non-stop. Now, outside Ye City, the people who go in and out of the city gate the most are the people from Runan who are escorting food and grass.

Most people are illiterate, but there is a well-meaning person preaching in front of several lists.

"When the new city is completed, all civilians who participate in the construction will be given a house of their own. Moreover, those who have registered as naturalized can also be allocated fields in Jizhou to support their families. It's no problem. In Jizhou, as long as you work hard , you can live and work in peace and contentment without worrying about food and clothing!"

"What is said on the list is correct. I have been building the canal for the King of Bohai for three years, and I have divided the residence last year. It is a little smaller, but it is better than the previous one." Someone echoed.

"And me, I not only divided the house, but also married a wife and gave birth to a child!"

"There is such a good thing, anyone can be naturalized?"

"Of course, I used to be a yellow scarf. Following the King of Bohai, I don't have to suffer from cold and hunger, and I can still live like a human being!" Someone boasted loudly, and was unanimously despised by everyone.

It was you who caused the turbulence in Jizhou before the relationship!

A group of peasant husbands in Runan secretly envied them while listening to the conversation.

People who are alone think: If I stay and participate in the labor, will I be able to share the house and land in the near future?

Maybe, maybe, yes, after all, even the Yellow Turbans can do it.

Someone bravely asked, "So, where can I work?"

Immediately someone answered for him: "There is a recruitment office in the city, just ask anyone to know everything!"

Many Runan civilian husbands couldn't help but look at each other, and some of them were even more eager to try.

Anyway, working where they are is not working. When they return to Runan, they are still the same. Their fields and even their houses have long been annexed by powerful families.

Instead of going back, why not try it here!

So, someone took the lead, and then they flocked to the city, one by one, to find the recruiting office, and spread the word to ten, ten to hundreds. All of the above are servants who have lost their land and are attached to the powerful families, and there are even slaves among them. Hearing this news, it is like grasping at straws.

At dusk, Xi Zhicai came to report, and through listing and guidance, the recruiting office recruited more than [-] people from Runan in just one afternoon, and Xi Zhicai deduced that as the incident continued to ferment, two days after tomorrow, there may be There will be more of them.

"Great plan! In times of war, no one can resist food and clothing. The common people don't want much. The Han Dynasty is vast, but there is no place for them to stand. Since the king's rule, this situation must be changed!"

Xi Zhicai naturally admires the great ambition of King Bohai, but how difficult it is to do!
However, after seeing the changes in Jizhou, Xi Zhicai has become more and more convinced that the future is promising!
"It's all because the lord is well-governed. If it weren't for the prosperity of Yecheng, even these small tricks would be useless. Hearing and hearing, after all, his own experience came to be true." Xi Zhicai said.

Indeed, let me be a little proud.

"The most prosperous time in Yecheng will always be tomorrow! Pass down the order, and all the new recruits will be handed over to Xun Yu. The land reclamation in spring has already started, and the area of ​​cultivated land has increased by [-]%. It must be completed this year!"

This goal is only for Jizhou.Bingzhou has a complex production structure, and as for Youzhou, the expansion has not yet begun.

"Here! Your servant is leaving!" Xi Zhicai left.

When Liu Qing looked at the sky, it was already dark, and in February, the days are very short.

"Tonight, I should be pampered...Xiao Man's waist?"

Liu Qing curled his lips and walked towards Qianying's courtyard.

All the way was unimpeded, Liu Qing went straight to the dormitory, only heard the sound of water gurgling behind the screen, and the maid hurriedly informed.

"My lord, this concubine is taking a bath, so I can't see you." Qianying's voice came from the screen, which sounded a bit stiff.

"My king didn't take a bath either, it just happened to be together!"

It's better to come early than to come early!

The two maids were very clever, and immediately stepped forward to help Liu Qing undress, and after a while, there was one more person in the tub.

Bathing in the same bucket is still Qianying's exclusive experience, at least Cai Yanxun has never experienced it with Diaochan, but Qianying has done it more than once.

"Your Majesty came back early today."

"Today we're welcoming Wen Yuan, and they're almost drunk, but the king didn't come here for the sake of me and me." Liu Qing opened his mouth, his words and actions were completely different. honest.

Qian Ying smiled and said nothing: Oh, so it is such a serious matter!

But what Liu Qing said next was really serious.

"It's been nearly two months since you took over the business affairs of the foreign race. Is there any movement from the royal family?"

"Back to Your Majesty, since this year, Qianman Khan has personally presided over the government affairs, but Xianbei is not as good as the Central Plains. The so-called government affairs are just royal family affairs. After the ministers and concubines took charge of the trade, the royal family did express something, but the supplies did not suddenly increase. Your Majesty is right, we must let Xianbei understand that excessive dependence will cause all kinds of harm but no benefit."

Liu Qing was a little surprised that Qian Ying was really able to make a move. As she said, her decision was directly related to the survival of the people of Xianbei. At this time, she was able to control it and prevent Xianbei from getting deeper.

It's really not easy, and she can think farther than the immediate difficulties that can be solved by using her hands, which shows that Qian Ying has great foresight!
But even so, the curtain of assimilation has been opened, and manpower is no longer used as a transfer. The reason why she is so relieved to hand over foreign trade affairs to Qian Ying is purely because of her trust in her and her wisdom. trust.

She deeply understood how valuable the commercial trade Liu Qing advocated was for Xianbei.

It's not the first time Liu Qing has done the task of giving someone a handle.

"Then do you have a lot of work on weekdays? Will you be too tired?" Liu Qing asked concerned.

"Uncle Ju sent someone to assist the concubine in handling affairs. The concubine is mainly responsible for monitoring, so I'm not tired. However, during this time, many other tribes on the grassland have paid tribute to the royal family, but the concubine's younger brother can be a man. , gave them all to the concubine, and the concubine has already put them into the palace treasury."

Qianman's emotional intelligence is not low, and she knows how to eat more than she can chew. Qianying is a quick learner by taking a mouthful of concubines.

After bathing and drying his body, Liu Qing rushed into the bed with Qian Ying in his arms, and continued to chat about business.

"The business of Xianbei has come to fruition, so there is no need to worry about it. Next, Youzhou will also establish commercial relations with foreigners. The affairs will be led by Youzhou Mu, and you will be responsible for monitoring. The expansion of Youzhou is the focus of this year's strategy. , the burden on you is not light."

Qian Ying's face turned red, and she thought: "The burden" on me is indeed not light.

……

The next day, Liu Qing left the mansion, took Dian Wei with him, and met Zhang Liao and Xu Huang at the military camp outside the city.

Zhang Liao's purpose is to replenish the soldiers and horses. In the First Battle of Changping, the dead and wounded in the battle, the soldiers and horses, and the soldiers must be replenished.

Zhang Liao was busy with his own affairs, and Liu Qing brought Xu Huang to one of the camps. After entering the camp, Xu Huang was stunned.

The row of war horses in front of him actually surpassed him in size. You must know that he is nearly nine feet tall, and the war horses are all extremely strong. This kind of strong is not the muscles with clear lines, but the whole body, which is bloated and strong.

"My lord, what horse is this? How tall is it?"

"This horse is a tribute from Xianbei. It is said that it was imported from the Western Regions. Although it is not good at short-distance charging, it is full of endurance and can carry a heavy load. A horse can drag a cart of a hundred stones."

"Using it to transport grain will do more with less!" Xu Huang immediately realized their magical effect.

But if Liu Qing just used it so simply, he wouldn't have brought Xu Huang to observe it.

Liu Qing clapped his palms and ordered: "Armour!"

The soldiers started to get busy, carrying pieces of iron armor, and then three or two people worked together to equip the horses with the help of small ladders.

This is not the first time Liu Qing and Dian Wei have met, they are still calm, while Xu Huang looks a little silly.

These iron armors... are plate armors!It's not that the iron pieces are connected in series, but they are casted. Watching the pieces being put on the horses, the horses are docile and motionless. After a while, several real iron horses stand in front of everyone.

The iron armor has sharp edges and corners, and there are sharp spikes on the front. This is not over yet. The soldiers used iron chains to connect the horses one by one. That is, an iron rod is tied between two horses, and four are tied between five horses.

Xu Huang immediately understood its magical effect on the battlefield.

This horse moves forward, drags the iron rod, and stabs and injures the enemy with its almost invincible protection. With its almost invincible protection, it will be like entering the land of no one. No arrows, knives, or spears can break through the plate armor. .

"My lord, this cavalry will definitely dominate the battlefield, whether it is infantry or cavalry, it is unmatched!"

That is, regardless of how much money was spent, the iron armor of that horse alone is enough to build armor for dozens of people. If the iron mines were not free now, Liu Qing would not be so extravagant in building real heavy cavalry .

"The name of this cavalry is Iron Buddha. Under the Buddha, all living beings are equal!" Liu Qing looked at the first platoon that had been formed, his eyes sparkled, and he ordered a demonstration.

The five iron horses moved horizontally, two feet apart, and started slowly. The iron chains slid across the ground, making a "clanging" sound, and as the iron pillars were dragged, deep scratches were left on the ground.

Even if the earth is like this, if it collides with flesh and blood, wouldn't it be smashed into pieces immediately.

Xu Huang was so shocked that he was speechless. The five riders were only wearing ordinary armor. If they also put on heavy armor...

"Gongming, how is it?" Looking at Xu Huang's expression, Liu Qing was very proud. Ever since he saw this kind of horse, he had this idea, and he was very satisfied when he saw the finished product.

Xu Huang didn't know how to describe it, so he murmured, "All beings are equal..."
