Chapter 864

Gan Ning was resting and traveling, and was very surprised to see a water-turning cart occasionally. If the warship was driven by a turning wheel, wouldn’t the wind limit be greatly reduced and the advance and retreat would be like flying, so he sent his son Gan Mao to ask Zhou Cang to ask Ma Jun to improve the warship according to this. Can be a ship.Zhou Cang finally couldn't hold back and went to see Ma Jun to discuss the matter, but Ma Jun ignored it.

Zhou Cang could only smile wryly and said to Gan Mao: "You can study and understand yourself by Ma Jun's side."

Ma Jun was also unambiguous. He improved the Liannu in three months and increased it from firing ten times to more than fifty times. However, due to the constraints of technology and materials, there are still two major flaws that make it difficult to make progress: one is that the cost is still high, and the other is that the old Although the continuous crossbow is only equipped with ten crossbows, it can be reloaded and reused about seven or eight times after the shots are exhausted, while the improved continuous crossbow is loaded with fifty crossbows at a time, but it is so worn that it is almost scrapped.But save the time to assemble the crossbow, that is a fighter, that is human life.

Next, Ma Jun improved the satin weaving machine, which can increase the efficiency by five times; rebuilt the guide car, and there was a small wooden figure on the car, no matter how forward, backward, or turning, the hand of the small wooden figure was always pointing to the south; Ligu carts, remember that the ligu carts are divided into upper and lower floors, with a bell on the upper floor and a drum on the lower floor.There is a wooden dummy on the cart, and when the cart travels ten miles, the wooden dummy beats the drum once; every time the drum is played ten times, the wooden dummy rises to the upper floor and strikes the bell once.

Dahan College filled in two more academicians, Dong Feng and Ma Jun, and Zhou Cang couldn't help being overjoyed: getting these two is better than one hundred thousand soldiers.Ma Jun, who never showed his face in public, became famous, and he was as famous as Ge Jun. The two were evenly matched. Zhou Cang ordered Mu Qiu to compile all the achievements except the confidential things into a book, and named it: Tiangong Kaiwu.

Emperor Liu Xie secretly rejoiced that "The First Half of My Life" has been completed and sold well, and "Heavenly Creation" may be competing for beauty in a few months tonight. "The First Half of My Life" ends with Liu Xie being demoted to Duke Shanyang, and the part in the middle of his return to the throne is omitted. There are many unspeakable things in the middle. Anyway, the world only needs to know that Zhou Cang rescued Liu Xie. .In the book, Liu Xie resolutely abandons the Spring and Autumn writing style, and expresses it directly in vernacular in many places, which is easy to understand, and it can be regarded as a new trend among scholars.

What bothered Liu Xie the most was that he could not return the capital to Luoyang. Fortunately, Zhou Cang revealed to him that Cao Pi would be expelled in about half a year, so Liu Xie began to get busy again, planning his return to Beijing ceremony and rebuilding the capital. The ancestral temple, how to confer rewards and nobility, and another important matter: how to transfer one's own property.

Zhou Chong sent a letter to Zhou Cang. Zhou Yuan was married in Jeju. She was the younger sister of a lieutenant in the Navy. She asked someone to bring back some specialties from Jeju. Zhou Liang went out to send Zhou Yan, Ganchi and Xiaomei He sent a copy to himself, and told himself that he would go to Jeju to entrust the affairs of the house to Zhou Lan. Because Zhou Cang had said something first, Zhou Chong didn't stop him.

Zhou Cang didn't care too much, his current concern is all in Yizhou.Deng Ai and Zhou Xin came to report one after another. They were sure that the time had come to send troops to Yizhou, and they decided to enter Sichuan.Regarding Deng Ai's analysis, Zhou Cang was quite surprised, and also somewhat expected. The unexpected reason was why Deng Ai was so bold that he didn't wait for another major change in Yizhou. It was expected that Deng Ai had this kind of character.Zhou Cang wondered if he was getting older and began to worry more, and began to seek more stability.Thinking about it, Deng Ai also had his reasons. If Liu Xunchu came to power and Meng Da added to the chaos, it would not be wrong to send troops at this time. If Yizhou was stabilized, he might suffer even greater losses. So he found a map of Yizhou to carefully study the route of march.

However, in the past few days, Huang Xu sent an urgent report from Jingzhou. The governor of the Eastern Army, Yu Jin, was lured out of Wancheng by Sima Wang because he underestimated the enemy. Feng Jian and Qu Ping were able to escape, but Yu Jin was killed by Chen Tai's cold arrow to cover his son!General Han Long snatched the dead body out of the forbidden body, but was also rescued by Feng Jian.

Few of the first battalion commanders of the Han army died on the battlefield, and the commander of the first army was even rarer, not to mention the commander of the fifth army.Zhou Cang was furious, clenched his fists and said: "Our army has won many victories, and the soldiers are arrogant? I haven't fought for a long time, and I'm lazy!"

The death of Yu Jin was a wake-up call for Zhou Cang. After traveling a hundred and a half miles, the centipede died but not stiff. Cao Wei has many famous generals, and there are many resourceful people.Zhou Cang immediately ordered Duan Muling to issue a warning to all armies, strictly ordering all ministries to guard against arrogance and impetuosity, and those who are arrogant, contemptuous and underestimated the enemy will be severely punished.

He led Dianman, Chen still, and Pei Feng to lead an army of [-] to kill Wancheng, while leaving Duanmuling, Chen Qian and Wu Gang to attack Yingchuan.

Duanmu Ling wondered: "Why did the Prime Minister Xia Houshang and Guo Huai go to fight? Although Wen Ze died, it did not seriously affect the morale of our army, and the loss of soldiers and horses was only [-]. What is the point? Huh?"

Mu Qiu said with a smile: "Zi Fan only knows one thing, but not the other. The eldest son is now in Yizhou, how can he feel at ease if the prime minister doesn't go there in person?" Duanmu Ling suddenly realized.

When Zhou Cang's soldiers arrived in Wancheng, the Wei army had already retreated. It was a great achievement to be able to win and kill Yujin. It was considered a satisfactory answer to Cao Pi, and it would stabilize the morale of the army. .

Huang Xu and Feng Jian reported Zhou Xin's latest battle situation to Zhou Cang, and learned that Deng Ai had won Yong'an at a great price. Zhou Cang finally felt relieved and sent Jiang Jin's body to the Hall of Martyrs for burial, and he personally served as the Eastern Army Governor.

Next, Yizhou battle reports continued to be sent to Wancheng, Sha Zan captured Fuling, the Han army captured Jiangzhou, Shu general Li Hui was killed, Deng Zhi surrendered; Deyang was victorious, Li Yan was captured, Zhou Xin asked Yongan and Jiang Wei to continue to capture Chengdu etc.After Zhou Xin's report to the Privy Council was first copied to Zhou Cang, Zhou Cang felt that the overall situation was settled, so he issued three orders to facilitate his son's actions, and sent one of them to Jinan.

Setting up the Southwest Dao to govern Yizhou and Jingzhou is Zhou Cang's last big test for Zhou Xin. The Southwest Dao and Jiangnan Dao have both similarities and differences. Zhou Xin's greatest right is to provide Lin Feng and Deng Zhi with two major assistances. Lin Feng was cultivated step by step.

Regarding Jiang Wei, Zhou Cang was very entangled. His thoughts were almost the same as Sha Zan's, but he had some more cognitions from history. Wai's strategy is really hard to compliment, so he simply let his son make up his mind.

With Yizhou's concerns already settled, Zhou Cang began to plan his march. Should he attack Shangyong from the west or Xudu from the north?Lu Xun, Wu Gang, and Jin Yiwei reported urgently at almost the same time that Luoyang had undergone great changes, and Cao Pi was driving away!
