Chapter 233 The Trouble of the Huns
Looking at the cannon that was still steaming with gunpowder smoke, Zu Long was already very satisfied.

If Qin Mu really hides this kind of killer weapon, then the Daqin army will never have any resistance when they see it in the future.

Therefore, since Qin Mu trusted him and informed him of the existence of the cannon, even if the production technology was controlled by Qin Mu, it was nothing.Even if you have to pay some money, it doesn't matter.After all, no matter how expensive this thing is, it’s worth it!

With cannons, how many soldiers can be saved, and the food and clothing saved on this trip is absolutely indispensable!
Qin Mu was very satisfied with his first experiment.Although my own production technology is limited by the times, it can only be considered barely.

However, the blueprints given by the system are very powerful. Even though there are some errors, the power and accuracy of the cannon still remain unchanged.

If this cannon is really equipped for the Qin army in the future, it should be able to achieve the expected effect after training.

At that time, there will be no need for large-scale bombing. As long as the scouts spot the position of the commander in the local army and directly shoot a shell, the battle will be won without fighting.

In the future, every artilleryman will be a warrior who can take the head of the enemy general from thousands of troops!

Driving the carriage, everyone returned to the manor.

Qin Mu first sent the cannon back to the blacksmith's workshop, explained to Li He carefully how to add the front sight, and then told him to start producing the cannon.

Now that it has been confirmed that this technology is indeed feasible, the best way is not to waste time and start production directly.After the artillery team has truly formed its combat effectiveness, it will go directly to the front line!
If it drags on, the Huns will stay away from the border again in winter, and they don't know where to hide for the winter.At that time, even if you want to wipe them out completely, you won't be able to find anyone.

The most important thing is that the suffering of the Huns is most severe in late autumn.Whether it is Qin Mu or Zulong, they want the people on the border to suffer such man-made disasters again.

Therefore, the faster the production of cannons, the better!Because, every autumn, there must be a battle between the Great Qin and the Huns!Now that he had such a hole card, no one thought that he would be tricked by the cavalry of the Huns again!
Of the 50 troops who conquered Baiyue, most of them had already returned to their original garrisons, except for a part left to supplement the frontier defenders.The pressure on food and grass that had been increased due to the Southern Expedition has eased.

It's just that, having just experienced a famine, Daqin's food and grass are far from abundant.

The Southern Expedition was originally the food that was picked out from the gaps between the teeth. If it was an expedition to the northwest, it would be really stretched.

Based on this, Li Si expressed fierce opposition.

"Brother Zhao! It's not that I have to fight against you, it's because this matter is simply unrealistic! We have already emptied the treasury for the Southern Expedition, and now we are going to war with the Xiongnu. Where will the food and grass come from?"

Li Si's face turned red anxiously: "You know, before, I have always been a staunch main fighter! The reason why I object now is not because I don't want to fight!"

"Actually, I can't wait to go to the northwest with my sword and kill those Huns raised by dogs one by one! But, there is really not enough food! We can't collect food!"

"Farmers in Daqin didn't have much food left! The last time the Nanyue people rebelled, they already gave away all their surplus... No! Now, they have nothing but food for their own lives!"

"Going to collect food now is forcing them to commit suicide!"

Zulong was silent.It's just that if you leave it alone, wouldn't it mean that the Huns were allowed to massacre the people on the frontier?
Wang Jian looked at Zulong's dilemma, and he didn't stay silent. He said, "Those Huns, how can we live in peace in autumn? If we go to war, it's nothing more than more food for each household. To be honest, the big deal is to kill a few rich households!" However, if there is no war, who will protect the people on the border?"

"Nonsense! What are you killing rich people! Even rich people have limited food! How much food and grass do you need for an army?"

Li Si's beard was crooked in excitement, and he danced and danced in a funny way: "If killing a few rich households can solve the problem, then the rich households in Daqin would have been killed by me long ago!"

"Then you are saying, what about the people on the frontier? Are you going to protect them? Or let the government move them to the interior?"

There is no solution to this problem!

The Huns didn't want to occupy land, they just grabbed things.Even if the people on the border are moved inward, there will always be someone on the periphery, right?

No matter how far the migration is, it will not solve the problem at all.When Shangjun is empty, go to Shangdang County.

Moreover, after moving inland, they gave up the natural danger of the Great Wall built by Daqin.Therefore, it is simply impossible.

Of course, it is even more impossible to sit back and watch the people being massacred!

Li Si's eyes moved, and he suddenly said: "Meng Tian! Meng Tian is stationed outside the Great Wall with 30 troops, shouldn't he stop the Huns?"

Now, Meng Yi, who was watching the play, couldn't sit still, why did he say that his elder brother was on the head?
"Old Li, don't talk nonsense! Meng Tian's garrison outside the Great Wall, guarding the Huns is just a matter of convenience. His more important task is to supervise the repair of the Great Wall!"

"The Xiongnu invaded the frontier, but it happened in one autumn. If you delay the great plan of the Great Wall, can you be responsible?"

Li Si also refused to give an inch: "Then what should we do? If we force the war, the disaster of the Huns may be appeased, but those who are about to starve to death in the rear will rebel, will you come to appease them? Don't forget, the remnants of the Six Kingdoms are still eyeing us!"

Zu Long frowned and stopped the two from continuing to talk: "Stop talking! The Xiongnu will definitely fight! Grain and grass can no longer be requisitioned!"

Wang Jian was stunned: "Then what should I do?"

Could it be that Daqin's army was going to fight hungry?How is that possible?

Zu Long looked at Qin Mu.

Qin Mu had been listening at the side, but he heard a lot about Daqin's current situation from their words.

It's just... their tone of voice is a little strange.

When speaking, each one is decisive, as if they can really make any decision.

It's normal for Dad to speak like this.After all, they are members of the royal family, and they are trusted by the emperor.

But your old Li opened his mouth and asked Meng Tian to do something, what are you doing?You are an old servant, if you have a higher status, you can be counted as a retainer, so you can't command others!
And Lao Wang, when he opened his mouth, it was my Daqin soldiers, as if they were really your soldiers.A guy with an unstable foot, what kind of wolf with a big tail is he pretending to be?
Originally, Xiao Meng was pretty good, so he kept silent.Who knew that Lao Li would look crazy when he mentioned Meng Tian!
