Chapter 594: Potatoes, Wheat, Sweet Potatoes, Tang Dao, Song Dynasty Crossbow Mingchuan (Part 2)

“Exchange me for the Tang Dao Casting Manual and the Ming Dynasty Warship Construction Manual.”

“Okay, a total of 270 summoning points have been consumed, and the host currently has 6750 summoning points remaining.”

"good."

 Qin Hao's eyes were not distressed at all, but full of excitement.

"Tang Dao" is the general name for the four types of sabers in the Tang Dynasty. It does not refer to a specific type of sword. It is recorded in the "Liu Dian of the Tang Dynasty" Volume 16 of the Military Library Ling Chengzhi Zhang Article: There are four types of swords, one is called the ritual knife, and the other is called the barrier. The third sword is called Heng Dao, and the fourth is called Mo Dao.

Tang Dao is not only made with strict craftsmanship, but also takes into account another purpose in combat, which is to break armor and be durable.

 Hitting armor requires hardness and a narrow blade, while durability requires toughness. Therefore, the Tang Dao adopted the most advanced steel-clad technology at the time.

Tang knives are made of wrought iron as the outer skin, with steel-made steel sandwiched in the middle. Part of the blade adopts local quenching technology, that is, the blade is covered with earth and burned. The blade is hard enough to cut through armor, and the blade is tough, non-deformable and durable.

 With the Tang Sword, the Tang Dynasty fought against the Arab Empire in the west and massacred Japanese pirates in the east, and played a decisive role in putting down the "An-Shi Rebellion".

 The Ming Dynasty's navy was the best equipped in the world. According to historical records, the Ming Dynasty's navy had about 5,000 warships along the coast alone.

The Ming Dynasty also had the largest variety of warships in the world. There were more than twenty kinds of warships alone. The weapons and equipment on the Ming Dynasty warships were the first in the world. They were invincible and unmatched by any country.

It is precisely because of the development of the shipbuilding industry that Zheng He was able to make seven voyages to the Western Seas to promote his country's prestige.

 Tang Dao is the pinnacle of melee cold weapons, and Mingchuan is also the best ancient warship. Although Qin Hao does not yet have a navy under his command, he still needs to prepare in advance. The world cannot be conquered overnight.

“The swords of the Tang Dynasty, the crossbows of the Song Dynasty, and the Ming Dynasty ships are the crystallization of military industry in three eras, but now they are all in my hands.

From now on, I will use Song crossbows for long-range attacks, Tang swords for close combat, fish-scale armor for defense, rotating thunder chariots for city siege, and open boats for water warfare...

Let me ask, among all the princes in the world, who can be my opponent, Qin Hao? "

I have to say that although Qin Hao has a beautiful idea in his heart, if he really digests these three technologies, he will be able to crush all the princes in terms of equipment alone. Of course, the premise is that the opponent does not improve.

 Even if their technology has improved, can the progress of improvement be as great as that of Qin Hao? Qin Hao's starting line was much higher than theirs from the beginning, so he was naturally full of confidence in the future.

Although the previous lottery harvests were all good things, potatoes were the most useful to Qin Hao. After all, potatoes can make billions of people alive.

Now that wheat and sweet potatoes have appeared in the mall, how could Qin Hao let them go?

“Also redeem genetically modified wheat seeds and genetically modified sweet potato seeds.”

“Okay, a total of 300 summoning points have been consumed, and the host currently has 6450 summoning points remaining.”

Although the grain, grass and baggage seized after defeating Xiang Yu was large, the expenses of all parties during Qin Hao's rule were also huge. In addition, they had to bear the burden of flood relief after the Battle of Han River.

Originally, Nanyang was not short of food, but it was hampered by large and small expenditures. The grain in the major granaries has been consumed to an extent. If we don't increase revenue and reduce expenditure, we will really run out of food.

It is precisely because of the lack of food that Qin Hao has not expanded his army so far, and has been using an army of more than 20,000 to rule the thirty-six counties of Nanyang, with more than 500,000 households and a population of more than 2 million. Now that potatoes, wheat and sweet potatoes are available, if combined with the previous rice farming, both Nanyang and Bingzhou can completely avoid the food crisis. When the food reserves are sufficient, Qin Hao can also take advantage of the trend to expand his army.

Looking at the other two crops in his hands, Qin Hao's eyes shone with strange splendor, and then he laughed confidently:

 "Li Shimin, Zhao Kuangyin, Zhu Yuanzhang, Temujin, Nurhachi, how can you compete with me? Hahaha, wait for me to defeat you one by one."

Just when Qin Hao was most proud, a bucket of inappropriate cold water was poured on Qin Hao again.

“Host, it’s good to have confidence, but if you underestimate your opponent, you will suffer big losses sooner or later.”

"Um?"

Qin Hao was stunned for a moment, but the system continued:

“Host, don’t forget, the host’s opponents are all talented people. These technologies and crops cannot be kept absolutely confidential. As long as you use some means, you can always get samples.”

The implication of the system is that sooner or later the opponent will be able to obtain the sample, but how long will the breakthrough technology be used? Whatever you have, your opponent will have it sooner or later. It's just a matter of time, so don't be complacent.

 Qin Hao was also extremely helpless. This system of his own, whenever he felt a little proud, she would always come to pour cold water on him. It was simply poisonous.

However, pouring this bucket of cold water down also made the overly excited Qin Hao sober up in an instant.

After a moment of reflection, Qin Hao smiled and said: "It's always good to be ahead for a while. I believe that within this period of time, it will be enough to widen the gap in strength between us and other princes."

Of course, Qin Hao also knows that these things cannot always be in his own hands, such as these high-yielding grain seeds.

Once these seeds are spread, the military grain reserves of the princes in various places will definitely increase sharply, but it will also increase the rations of the people, thereby reducing the probability of people starving to death and increasing the total population.

 There are disadvantages and advantages, but in general the advantages outweigh the disadvantages. After all, Qin Hao didn't want the country he unified to be a dead land that had been crippled by various princes and was uninhabited for thousands of miles.

 After calming down, Qin Hao sorted out the items he had obtained again, only to find something interesting inside.

“System, is this foreign summoning card specially used to summon foreign characters?”

“Of course, the foreign summoning card can randomly summon a talent from all other countries except China.”

“What level does this card belong to? What level of talents can it summon?”

“This card has no level. The level of talent it can summon depends entirely on luck.”

Qin Hao's eyes suddenly lit up. Doesn't having no level mean that anyone of any level can be summoned?

 In the quota reservation authority, one gold-level King Arthur, Arturia Pandaragorn, can be reserved.

Although King Da Mao has great abilities and charm, Qin Hao will still feel a little distressed if he uses a golden summoning card to summon him. After all, golden summoning cards are also extremely precious, and this alien summoning card comes at just the right time.

“My king, my king, are you coming out? Or are you not coming out?”

 Qin Hao couldn't help but look forward to it. What kind of scene would it be like if the cute King Arthur lived in the late Han Dynasty, holding up the sword of victory and shouting EX?

The picture was so beautiful that Qin Hao simply didn’t dare to think about it.
