Bad people in Qin Dynasty

Chapter 182 Target Bashu
"Where did you come back from when you resisted a girl?"

Looking at the girl carried on the little man's shoulders, Zhao Ji felt unhappy.

"She is Lu Buwei's daughter, and she is also the Princess Huayun conferred by the king. Don't bully her, she is useful to me."

Tian Hao casually slipped the unconscious girl down and handed it to Zhao Ji, and gave him some instructions.

A Yin Jue body is of great significance to him. It can not only temporarily calm his increasingly strong Yang energy, but also allow him to study the nature of the mutated meridians such as the innate Yin meridians.

His meridians were modified by the Six Souls Horror Curse, which is definitely different from this kind of innately mutated meridians, at least not as stable as others. In the future, he must find a way to turn this acquired modification into the innate type.

You must prepare in advance, or at least study and understand the essence, so that you can have a direction to advance your research.

"Is it that girl Xingyun?"

Zhao Ji realized that when he was in Zhao State, he had met Lu Buwei's daughter. At that time, Lu Buwei had only one daughter, and she should be this old considering her age.

It's just that the little girl who was sallow and thin and looked sickly at that time is now slim and tall.

But now this girl fell into his hands.

"Take good care of her!"

At this time, the six-fingered black man appeared and said with a complicated expression.

He also just realized that this girl was practicing Nian Duan's technique. Her simple clothes were similar to Nian Duan's. She was obviously her disciple.

After the instructions, he disappeared. It was not convenient for him to be exposed for a long time now, as he would be stared at. It would be much more convenient to hide.

"The tone is wrong. Could it be that this girl is actually his daughter and he put a hat on Lu Buwei's head?"

Hearing the abnormal tone of the Six-fingered Black Man, Zhao Ji couldn't help but have some bold ideas in her mind.

So exciting!
Tian Hao went to Lu Buwei's mansion and brought back a person. He didn't hide it, and he couldn't hide it from some people. He was quickly approached.

"I have already told you that the overall situation must be the most important thing, and this is not my decision, it is the decision of the entire royal family."

Feeling uncomfortable being stared at by a certain girl, Tian Hao reluctantly put down his work and comforted her.

"Did my father's death be in vain?"

There were still a lot of bloodshot eyes in Hua Yu's eyes, and the circles under her eyes were dark. It was obvious that she hadn't had a good rest during this period.

She was originally happy, but was ruined by Ying Zi Chu. Her father who loved her was killed by that traitor Ying Zi Chu. Now the coffin is still placed in the camp.

"It's useless for you to tell me this. This is not something I can change."

Tian Hao still maintained that helpless expression. This was really something he couldn't change, and he couldn't change it, otherwise he would have to be suppressed by the powerful royal men in the camp before it could break out.

"Did you have any involvement in my father's death?"

Staring at the fiancé in front of her, Hua Yu felt that things were not that simple.

Don’t forget, this person was born in Luowang.

"How could I intervene? And what reason would I have to intervene?"

Tian Hao didn't panic at all and asked.

He is always upright, acts upright, and sits upright. If he does something, he does it, and if he doesn’t do it, he doesn’t do it. He will not hide or lie to others.

"You'd better not have interfered!"

After continuing to stare for a while, Huayu gave a final warning before leaving.

Although she didn't like the lewd thief very much, she also knew that he had no motive to interfere.

Because the prostitute himself did not gain much benefit from this incident. Black Dragon had negotiated with Uncle Wang to move to Longxi when he was attacked and killed. Some of the powerful members of the royal family would inevitably go there.

Now, with the death of the father, it is just that there are more powerful people in the royal family in the past, and there is no essential change.

It is unlikely to be related to Ying Zheng. After all, if something like this happens, Ying Zichu will definitely worry that his own son will be involved in a drama of patricide and ascending to the throne, and will be wary of his children. Ying Zheng is the first A defensive target.

Moreover, after Ying Zichu ascended the throne this time, he did not establish Ying Zheng as the crown prince, and he had obviously begun to take precautions.

For these reasons, she didn't have too much suspicion. It was just a test before.

"We're leaving, we're ready, are you ready?"

Watching his fiancée leave, Tian Hao turned to look at the wall of Xianyang City not far away, whispering to himself, looking forward to the next showdown.

He had long known that this battle in Longxi would not go so smoothly. Just like the last battle in Baiyue, too many people would intervene later.

Lord Xinling, the Mo family, the Yin Yang family, and some others who didn't show up.

This battle of Longxi was far more important to Qin than the Battle of Baiyue. He did not believe that those people would remain indifferent, let alone the Chu clique involved in the fight.

And after knowing that Lord Changping was the representative of the Chu clan this time, he knew that there would be greater variables.

But the biggest variable has to be Luo Wang, because Luo Wang knows the true meaning of the Battle of Longxi. How will the hidden master of Luo Wang choose?
Looking away, Tian Hao came to the center of the camp, passed through the [-] Great Qin elites who were defending there, came to the edge of Dahei, and patted the scars left by the wounds.

"Recovered well!"

The appearance of the unknown sword master last time shocked him, and he also didn't expect that person to come.

If it weren't for that person, if it were someone else, even if Donghuang Taiyi or Guiguzi came over, it would be impossible to severely injure Dahei with one blow.

It can only be said that the unknown swordsman is too powerful. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is a ceiling in the Qin Shi series. He is the person he is most afraid of during this period.

"Hiss..."

As he swallowed the snake letter, Dahei felt aggrieved in his heart. The man was too restrained towards him, mainly because his own transformation was incomplete.

Because his core strength is dragon crystal and the Thunder Breathing Technique that he is practicing. Once he masters the Thunder Breathing Technique, his strength will definitely be greatly improved.

When that human being comes again, he will have to be electrocuted.

"Just wait until you go to Longxi, where you will be transformed!"

Tian Hao smiled and comforted, feeling quite helpless.

As an old bookworm who has read countless novels, he naturally knows how to let his pets embark on the path of cultivation. Just like the pet companions of Emperor Huang Tian, ​​they will eventually grow into good helpers.

Moreover, Dahei is particularly sensitive to and adaptable to electric current. In response to this, he and his master Six Finger Heixia modified the Thunder Breathing Technique based on Dahei's body meridians on the way back to Qin, forming a version suitable for Dahei's practice.

It's a pity that the secret of the generator still needs to be kept, so Dahei has not absorbed electricity for more than half a year. Originally, he wanted to let Dahei eat and drink with the Daqin royal family for a period of time to strengthen his background and win over the Daqin royal family. , who would have thought that he would be targeted by the unknown sword master.

Now they can only leave early and go to Longxi, where Moban and others have already built a large generator, which is enough for Dahei to practice.

Once he completes the Thunder Breathing Technique, or even attracts the Thunder from Heaven and Earth into his body to complete his transformation, he is not sure how much Dahei's strength can be improved.

This will be his big trump card in the battle of Longxi!
"But you have to continue to lose weight and exercise your four little paws more. They can't be used as decorations all the time!"

After squinting at Dahei's still plump snake body, Tian Hao warned.

The current Dahei is still a bit fat, and his claws are too small, so they can only be used as decorations.

"Hiss..."

Dahei twisted his plump snake body in response. He also wanted to return to his former slim figure as soon as possible.

If he had completely regained his slim figure last time, he might have been able to avoid the returning sword energy.

"Maybe I can get you a suit of armor to wear."

Looking at Dahei's black body, Tian Hao couldn't help but think of the Deathwing in World of Warcraft. He had a set of armor on him. If Dahei was given a set of high-strength carbon steel armor, the nameless sword energy would Can Dahei be seriously injured?
"The thickness of three feet should be enough."

Taking another look at Dahei's size, Tian Hao felt that with Dahei's current strength, he should be able to withstand three feet of armor.

Unlike him as a human being, because Dahei is too big, he will be at a disadvantage against a top powerhouse like the Unknown Sword Master. In this way, it is impossible to increase his speed enough to avoid the attack of that powerhouse. So you have to develop your strength and defense so that you can survive even if you can't avoid it.

As a result, its size is a powerful weapon on the battlefield, and it can kill and injure large areas with just a few moves.

"Now you can talk about the methods you have prepared in Longxi. Otherwise, even with my ability, I can only guarantee a miserable victory."

Yingqi came over suddenly, and asked while watching Dahei who was exercising with his plump snake body.

Judging from the available intelligence, the enemy is very strong, especially the Yuezhi King who has mobilized a lot of troops. If they really want to fight, the most they can get is a miserable victory, which is not what he wants. "Unlimited supply of arrows!"

After looking around, Tian Hao whispered.

"Unlimited? The kind that makes steel arrows?"

Ying Qi thought of the arrows used in the Battle of Baiyue, and he even asked people to bring some back for research.

Although it is relatively brittle, it has high hardness. As long as it is not a treasure armor, it will be pierced. However, it is too brittle and rusts easily, making it difficult to maintain.

But it is qualified as an arrow.

"We have developed a technology for refining arrowheads in batches. As long as there are enough raw materials, they can be refined without limit. According to time estimates, the number of arrowheads stocked at our Longxi base should be more than 5000 million. As long as they are matched with qualified The arrow shaft becomes the arrow.”

After some calculations, Tian Hao came up with a relatively conservative figure.

In fact, as early as Baiyue, he had figured out a way to mass-produce arrowheads, which was inspired by the manufacturing of briquettes in his previous life.

Briquettes were very popular when he was a child, and many people opened small factories to make briquettes. There was one next to their village. He went to see it when he was a child. The principle was very simple.

Then use this to press out a mold, and finally pour molten steel on it to form arrows one by one.

The performance of steel directly cast in this way is definitely much worse, especially in terms of toughness, but it is more efficient.

It's not that he can't design other methods, but the problem is that there are only so many people. No matter how good the design is, it can't be controlled by no one. Moreover, the materials are limited nowadays, so this can only be done.

At least this kind of cast steel arrowhead is strong enough, much stronger than the mainstream bronze arrowheads today, especially when dealing with alien cavalry who only have leather armor and leather clothing. It is not much different from high-end arrowheads.

"I thought you would hide something, but I didn't expect you to hide so much!"

The number of 5000 million made Yingqi stunned for a while before he came back to his senses and smiled bitterly.

He thought about the kid's hidden trump card, but he didn't expect it to be this one, and that it was so hidden.

If there were 5000 million arrows, let alone the hundreds of thousands of alien cavalry, it would be enough to push away the two major alien races.

"We can only produce arrows now. We lack manpower to handle the arrow shafts."

With a smile, Tian Hao revealed this trump card because he wanted to summon a group of craftsmen through the Qin royal family. The more than 1000 craftsmen in Baiyue were still a little short.

"You boy!"

After hearing someone's intention, Ying Qi smiled and scolded and agreed. After all, this was also beneficial to their Great Qin.

"Tell me what other means you have."

After urging, he felt that this boy had something good to hide, so he would take the opportunity to open his eyes today.

"We have developed a new type of steel crossbow arm, but the raw materials are difficult to find. The current output is limited and can only be produced in small quantities."

After briefly speaking, Tian Hao did not intend to elaborate on this. The main reason is that the silicon-manganese spring steel is not easy to smelt, and the problem lies in the raw materials.

Silicon is easy to get, but manganese is not. He has paid special attention to this aspect before, and only found a small manganese mine in Chu State, and the quality was not very good.

The good news is that not only the terrain of this world is almost the same as that of the previous world, but also some of the mineral areas. For example, there are many coal mines in Zhao State, especially the salt lake.

If he wants to really develop the steel industry in Qin, he has to go to the land of Bashu to find the PZH, where the coal mines and iron mines are connected, and the manganese mine in the south, which is most suitable for smelting iron. steel, and there are enough rivers for water routes.

The most important thing is that it is easy to defend and difficult to attack. As long as you guard a few important places, even if the outside world is turned upside down, it will not affect it.

In addition, it should not be too far from the Shushan forbidden area of ​​Shu Kingdom, which is convenient for protecting Yu Yuan's seal.

He didn't want that thing to be turned on, otherwise the world would turn into Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio.

Of course, the point is that those mineral deposits are really the same in this world, otherwise you have to find them slowly.

As for the Northeast, which has more abundant resources, it's not that he doesn't want to go there, but it's too far away, and it's still in the territory of Yanzhao. It will take several years to conquer it.

Rather than waiting, it is better to develop the Bashu side first, and at the same time protect the Yu Yuan seal.

"You can do it with confidence and boldness. If you have any needs, just ask. I promise to do my best to meet them."

After thinking about it, Yingqi gave a guarantee.

As a member of the Great Qin royal family, he most hopes that Great Qin will continue to grow stronger, and cannot be shaken in public or private matters.

Now that there is an opportunity here, it is natural to increase support and transform it into the foundation of Da Qin as soon as possible.

"Uncle Qi, I feel relieved when you say that. There happens to be something that Uncle Qi needs to do."

Tian Hao rubbed his hands, waiting for these words.

"Say!"

Ying Qi looked very heroic. Now they have half the royal family on their side. There is nothing that cannot be accomplished in Qin.

"After the Battle of Longxi, our next development focus will be on the southern end of Bashu. I hope Uncle Qi can help clear the way there. It is best to deal with it secretly and replace everything there with trustworthy people, especially the military. We can’t let people from the Chu family get involved.”

Speaking of what he wanted, Tian Hao wanted to establish a base in Bashu to develop safely. He didn't want to be disturbed, so some things had to be arranged in advance.

"Why choose Bashu?"

Winning and giving up are confusing, why choose there?
"My people discovered suspected iron ore and coal mines there, which are connected together. They are the most suitable for smelting iron and steel in our Daqin territory. There are also many rivers there, which can develop water transportation and reduce transportation consumption. "

Tian Hao is sure of this, because he has found relevant records. There are indeed iron ore and coal mines in Bashu, but he is not sure about the reserves and whether they are the ones he knows. These need to be confirmed manually.

In fact, there are many minerals in the Central Plains, but most of them are very small. For example, the small iron ore mine I discovered in Longxi was not only small in size, but also of poor quality. Such sporadic small mines It is simply not enough to support large-scale iron and steel smelting.

In previous lives, only large-scale mineral deposits could be included in geography textbooks. Small-scale mineral deposits were not eligible to be included in textbooks.

In addition, there are many rivers and complex terrain, which are suitable for building hydroelectric power stations.

"So Bashu is the most important foundation for the future of our Great Qin?"

Eyes flashing, Ying Qi understood. If that kind of steel could really be mass-produced, especially the steel bow arm he mentioned before, the meaning would be completely different.

The steel that can be used as a crossbow arm must also be suitable for making swords, spears and spears, and even armor, which is strategic for a country.

"While everyone's attention is drawn to Longxi and the Western Regions, we quietly go to Bashu to develop quietly. The focus of this plan is to keep it secret, otherwise it will be very troublesome to be targeted prematurely."

His complexion became serious, Tian Hao only wanted to develop well, and then went out to bully all enemies. Before that, he didn't want to cause trouble, and he didn't want to be beaten up.

"This requires careful planning."

After replying, Yingqi left in a hurry, preparing to discuss the matter with the clan elders and clean up the Bashu area as soon as possible. All those with questionable identities and positions would either be transferred away or cleared out.

It is related to the future foundation of the Qin Dynasty. No carelessness is allowed. Anyone who dares to stand in the way will be killed without mercy!

"The next step is to find a way to fool the Yu Yuan guards who live on Shu Mountain."

Turning his head to look south, Tian Hao thought about how to fool those people on Shu Mountain.

He needs to unite with the people on Shu Mountain to better protect Yu Yuan's seal, otherwise it will be very troublesome if there is a bloody misunderstanding with him.

But as far as he knew, the people on Shu Mountain were very xenophobic, especially against the people of Qin. After all, Shu was destroyed by Qin and was considered an enemy.

"This has to be figured out slowly. First let people collect detailed information on Shushan and Yu Yuan's guards."

Tian Hao is not in a hurry about this, he still has a lot of time.

Moreover, the current main task is to win the Battle of Longxi at the minimum cost, and then launch a journey plan to the Western Regions to attract the attention of all forces, so that they can secretly open a base in Bashu.

"You have to do strength training."

His eyes turned to Dahei, who was twisting his snake body for exercise. Tian Hao suggested strength training. The armor was definitely not light. Don't even think about moving without enough strength. Even with the help of machine skills, it would not be easy. Dahei had to let Dahei train. Black exercises in advance.

"When it reaches the limit of seven feet and five inches, I will dig out my powerful Gu and transplant it into you."

Thinking of his powerful Gu and his current body size, Tian Hao could already clearly feel that his body's growth was slowing down. Even with the blessing of the Shield Armor Hundred Refiners, it was almost reaching its limit. He estimated that he would be able to grow to Seven feet and five inches is not comparable to the legendary one-foot-tall body of Xing Tian, ​​but it is enough.

At that time, the powerful Gu worm will not be of much use to itself, so it will be transplanted to Dahei to see if it can further increase this guy's size.
