Chapter 326 The world belongs to Qin
After the court meeting, Ying Jun was just about to return home when Fan Sui's voice came from behind him.

"Your Highness, wait a minute!"

Fan Sui looked at Ying Jun in front of him who was about to leave, and quickly chased after him.

Ying Jun couldn't help but stop, turned around and looked at Fan Sui calmly: "Prime Minister, what's the matter?"

Fan Sui stepped forward, bowed his hands, and said with a hint of joy on his face: "I am here to congratulate the young master. Now that the king has appointed you as the prince, it is really a blessing for our country, Qin!"

Now that Yingjun has been appointed as the prince, it is equivalent to having half a foot on the throne. He will be able to control the entire Qin Kingdom in a short time. Naturally, there is no need for him to target Yingjun.

Especially today, Yingjun openly asked the King of Qin to let his brother Yingzhu be his assistant in front of all the ministers.

Moreover, based on his understanding of Ying Jun, unlike the princes of other countries, he did not seem to have any intention of taking back the real power in the hands of veterans like them.

When Ying Jun heard this, there was no trace of emotion on his face. He raised his hand and said: "Prime Minister, just say what you want to say directly. There is no need for these polite words!"

Fan Sui nodded and said quickly: "I came here to ask if the prince had already begun to deploy a plan to destroy Zhao when he asked me to buy grain and pig iron on a large scale."

Ying Jun nodded slightly and said with firm eyes: "Yes, although the Qin State is far stronger than the six countries now, if the Zhao State unites as one and tries its best to resist our Qin army, it will definitely cause great losses. If you want to do it at the minimum cost, To destroy the State of Zhao, we must first disintegrate the State of Zhao from within."

"As the saying goes, food is the most important thing for the people. Both soldiers and common people cannot live without food."

Fan Sui was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly remembered what Ying Jun had said in the hall before, combined with Ying Jun asking him to buy pig iron at a high price, and then buying grain again, he suddenly felt a little enlightened:
"The reason why His Highness the Crown Prince asked me to buy pig iron at double or even triple the price is because he wants all the countries to compete for pig iron."

"As far as I know, many people and ministers in various countries do not hesitate to sell their household items to buy pig iron from others in order to be able to hoard a large amount of pig iron, and sell it to Qin at a high price to make a profit."

"And those poor people who have no money can only rely on the money they get from selling grain to buy pig iron. In this way, both the common people and ministers in other countries can earn a lot of benefits from Qin. But all the grain in their hands flowed into our country, Qin."

"This plan is certainly a good one, but our Qin State's treasury is now completely empty, and we can't even afford the ministers' salaries. If this continues, it will inevitably cause dissatisfaction among many ministers."

Ying Jun smiled slightly and looked at Fan Sui calmly: "Just continue to buy. In a few days, this food will be as scarce and popular as this pig iron."

After saying that, he got into the carriage.

In five days there will be a battle with Zhao State, and he has to make arrangements.

Yingjun rode the carriage directly back to the mansion.

Not long after he sat down, Jia Xu, Zhao Yun and others came to the hall.

I saw a strange thing in Jia Xu's hand. He walked up to Ying Jun with a novel face: "Sir, this is what Mr. Gongshu Qiu sent this morning. He said it was a company developed by him under the leadership of the Gongshu tribe. crossbow."

Repeater?

Ying Jun was slightly stunned. It had only been less than half a month before Gong Loser had designed something, which surprised him a little. Then he curiously asked: "How is this thing better than the crossbows our army is currently equipped with?"

I saw Li Cunxiao immediately took the repeating crossbow from Jia Xu's hand, and introduced with joy on his face: "My lord, this thing is much better than the crossbow we use!" "My lord, please look, I The crossbows currently equipped by the Qin army are all single-shot crossbows. After firing a round, they have to reload the crossbow arrows, which is very time-consuming and laborious. Moreover, when loading the crossbow arrows, the crossbowman has no ability to protect himself at all. "

"But this repeating crossbow is different. There is a crossbow box placed above the repeating crossbow. More than ten crossbow arrows can be loaded into it at one time. After each crossbow is fired, just pull the lever and it can be quickly loaded again. Crossbow.”

"It can be said that with the continuous crossbow designed by the Gongshu family, the strength of our Qin crossbowmen has increased several times."

"And the benefits of this repeating crossbow are not just these. The crossbow originally equipped by our Qin army only had a range of about fifty steps, but the repeating crossbow designed by Gong Shuqiu has a range of 120 steps. From then on, only our Qin crossbow The soldiers can shoot at the opponent, but the opponent cannot shoot at our Qin army."

Li Cunxiao's tone was full of unparalleled contract renewal.

He explained all the benefits of the repeating crossbow developed by the public loser in detail. Those who didn't know it thought that this thing was developed by him personally.

There was no emotion on Yingjun's face. Although this repeating crossbow was good, it definitely had its disadvantages. He immediately asked: "Since this repeating crossbow is so powerful, how easy is it to make it?"

Many ordnance weapons are extremely powerful.

But it is also extremely difficult to manufacture, and can only be used as a deterrent weapon for a small number of people.

Li Cunxiao, however, looked indifferent and continued: "According to my understanding, the power of this repeating crossbow is almost the same as that of the single-shot crossbow when the Qin State designed it before. Moreover, with the help of the Gongshu family, it has solved many manufacturing problems for the Qin State. It’s a difficult problem, and it’s now less difficult to make a single-shot crossbow than it was to make a single-shot crossbow.”

Ying Jun showed a trace of relief on his face. He was worthy of being a Gongshu clan who was good at mechanism skills. With these repeating crossbows, they would play an effective role in attacking Zhao State in the future: "In that case, let the Gongshu clan manufacture these repeating crossbows on a large scale." , equip it for the Qin army."

"By the way, gather all the soldiers under your command and send troops to Zhao in five days!"

Jia Xu was slightly stunned, and looked at Ying Jun with some surprise in his eyes: "Sir, are you planning to raise your troops to destroy the State of Zhao?"

Ying Jun nodded slightly, then looked at Jia Xu: "Sir, do you think there is anything wrong?"

Jia Xu quickly lowered his head and saluted: "My lord, we have been deploying the Zhao Kingdom for a long time. It is only a matter of time before the Zhao Kingdom is destroyed. However, once the Zhao Kingdom is destroyed, other countries will definitely take action."

"How do you plan to respond, sir?"

Yingjun naturally understands this.

The fact that the Six Kingdoms have been able to survive for hundreds of years in this troubled world has long been ingrained. Even if Ying Zheng unified the Six Kingdoms in later generations, he still did not clear away the remnants at all.

It is not so easy to completely destroy it.

But what he has to do now is to first add all the territories of these six countries to Qin.

Yingjun looked at the sky outside the hall and said solemnly: "This world belongs to Qin, but if there are any obstacles, I will destroy them!"
