Chapter 493 Papermaking
In Yongliang's Anding City, Bai Mayi rushed from Xudu to Liangzhou in five days, and the speed was astonishing.The Jizhou official road connects Yanzhou and Bingzhou, and Baimayi arrived in Bingzhou in less than two days from Xudu.The distance from Bingzhou to Liangzhou is not far, and there is no delay on the way.

In Anding City, Xu Rongzheng asked the deputy general to reward Baima Yicong, and he personally received Zhao Yun.

"General Zhao, the current situation in Yongliang is not very good. General Huang Zhong's army has not completely withdrawn from the Western Regions, but Cao Ren has chosen to stick to it. I have also received some news that the Qin army is preparing to fight Yongliang in the spring of next year." Xu Xu Rong squinted his eyes, and passed the information sent by the frontline spies to Zhao Yun.

Zhao Yun could tell that he was very tired. After all, the rapid march for five days made him barely close his eyes.

After receiving the information, Zhao Yun felt dizzy, so he could only take a look as much as possible.

Xu Rong could also see that Zhao Yun was exhausted, so he didn't talk about military affairs anymore, and hurriedly prepared a place for him to rest.

Two days later, Zhao Yun was completely relieved, and Baima Yicong's soldiers also recovered their physical strength, ready to enter the battlefield at any time.

Moreover, Zhao Yun personally sent troops, without waiting for Xu Rong's order, he took Bai Ma Yicong to Jieting.

Guo Huai went to Xu Rong's side. Although he blamed himself, he still asked: "General, do you think General Zhao Zilong can take back the street pavilion? His Royal Highness did not order me to be punished. This is already a kindness. But the last general I thought that since Qin Guo swallowed Jieting, it was absolutely impossible to spit it out again."

Xu Rong nodded. Although he believed in Zhao Yun's strength, he also believed that with Zhao Yun's ability, he could not take back Jieting.

In the evening, Zhao Yun led his troops to Jieting and saw the main throat where Qin's army was stationed in Jieting.

"Who is stationed in Jieting? Have you found out clearly?" Zhao Yun asked the lieutenant beside him.

"Returning to General, the person stationed at Jieting is Niu Jin, a soldier under the command of Cao Ren, the general of Qin State, who is quite brave."

Zhao Yun heard that Niu Jin was actually guarding the street pavilion, which was really difficult.

"Let's go! Let's call for battle, let's test Niu Jin's level first." Zhao Yun doesn't know Niu Jin very well, but he has heard of Niu Jin's bravery in the Military Aircraft Department of Xudu Palace, but he still needs to get in touch with him after all.

Niu Jin was standing guard in the barracks, and he saw Jin cavalry in white robes and horses coming from a distance, and he knew that this was the white horse Yi Cong of Jin!

The guard of Baima Yicong was Zhao Yun, and Niu Jin didn't dare to fight this guy.

"Hang up the battle card, and the archers will stick to the camp!" Niu Jin was very calm, even if the opponent's cavalry team was small, he would never leave the camp.

Zhao Yun also frowned when he saw the soldiers of the Qin State hang up the no-war sign on the gate of the camp, and he could see that the soldier Niu Jin was indeed calm first.

"Niu Jin, as expected of Cao Ren's confidant general! Even though he controls the army, he sticks to the camp, which is very unusual." He made no secret of his approval of Niu Jin, Zhao Yun felt that he had met his opponent today.

Baima Yicong is a light cavalry soldier, and what he is least good at is attacking cities and villages.If Niu Jin couldn't help cursing and came out to fight, Zhao Yun was sure to kill him.Now that Niu Jin is dead, the street pavilion will naturally be destroyed by itself, but it's a pity that this Niu Jin is too calm.

Before Zhao Yun had time to scold, Niu Jin had already hung up the exemption card.

"General, since Niu Jin doesn't intend to fight, let's go back. Return to Anding City in the dark, so we can still catch dinner."

Seeing that the soldiers were also hungry, Zhao Yun sighed again and decided to return to Anding City.

In Tianshui City, Cao Ren received the battle situation from Niu Jin, and he was very satisfied that Niu Jin was stationed in the camp.Jieting must not be lost, even if Niu Jin can no longer send troops, he cannot lose Jieting.

In the spring of next year, the Qin State will lead a large army northward to attack Yongliang, and Jieting is the most important thing.

"Come here, go and send general Niu Jin some clothes for the winter, and another month's worth of food and grass! It's winter, and the soldiers eat a lot, and the street pavilions will be very cold. We can't let the soldiers go hungry." Cao Renai Soldiers are like sons, the key is that he is worried that the hungry soldiers will affect the battle and cause the street pavilion to be lost.

None of the soldiers envied Niu Jin, because none of them wanted to guard the street pavilion.Jieting is really too dangerous, and you have to live in the barracks all winter, the bitter cold is unbearable.

Xu Du
Han Wu went to inspect the Hanlin Academy. He actually didn't want to come to these places of scholarship. After all, he didn't like reading.

However, Han Wu knew that he represented half of the imperial court, and while emphasizing farming and soldiers, advocating literature was also an important aspect.

"Feng Xiao, I heard that Cai Lun is a talented person in Xudu. He developed paper? This kind of paper is more convenient for writing, right?" Han Wu asked knowingly. With historical experience, he naturally knew that Cai Lun made paper.

Guo Jia nodded quickly, showing an admiring smile, and said: "Your Highness is really good at hearing and seeing. This Cai Lun is indeed a paper maker, and he has recently researched very good paper. I think Zeng Guofan should be allowed to handle this matter and develop paper into a stronger one." .”

"Paper is a sacred thing. It would be great if we can make paper books available to the poor!"

Han Wu nodded. After thinking for a while, he said: "Paper is indeed a good thing, but I have a new idea, please write it down."

"Announce to the world that all literati and students in the world are willing to come to Xudu Hanlin Academy to copy books on paper. As long as they copy [-] characters, they can exchange for the books needed to copy [-] characters, and can return them as their own."

As soon as His Royal Highness said this, Guo Jia's heart trembled. This is a big deal!
Being able to copy books in exchange for the books you want is a great blessing to the poor students.

Moreover, improving the learning ability of poor students can also better restrict the aristocratic families.If the state of Jin wants to continue to develop and grow, it must completely get rid of the aristocratic family.

In the current state of Jin, except for Han Wuyong who got Jizhou Huajia and Zhenjia, other Jizhou aristocratic families have been dealt with almost.

After more than ten years of war in Qingzhou, Youzhou, and Bingzhou, there are very few aristocratic families, but Xuzhou and Yanzhou are quite troublesome.

Today's Xudu is close to Yangzhou, and there are more aristocratic families nearby, which will eventually hinder the imperial court's orders.

"I would like to thank Your Highness for your kindness and virtue for the poor students in the world! I will go to Xun You to draft an order and send it to Your Highness right away. Presumably within two years, His Highness will be able to get a steady stream of poor students. This time, let the court entrust the aristocratic family Dazu!" Guo Jia was very excited, and tears welled up in his eyes.

Although he is also a student of a small family, he was not much different from the poor students since he was a child, so he understands the hardships of the poor students.

Han Wu nodded, squinted his eyes and said: "Okay! There is also the problem of Hanchen. Many ministers in the court came here for the fame of Empress Fu, which will affect the stability of my father and me. Fengxiao will help me , Suppress Han Chen's real power."

Han Wu took a deep breath and decided to stabilize the court before sending troops to Yongliang next spring.
