The Three Kingdoms started from fooling Jia Xu

Chapter 343 Attitude, Ma Jun

Watching Nan Shengmi leave,

Jia Xu squinted his eyes, and asked in a deep voice: "My lord, the small country of Dongzhou has internal strife since ancient times. No matter what he does, if the lord wants to show the power of our country, it would be better to reward him with jewels and weapons directly. ?”

"What's more, now that the Central Plains is not yet stable, and the surrounding princes are watching, my Jingzhou navy really wants to go across the ocean to help his small country?"

After Jia Xu finished speaking, Chen Qun continued, "My lord, Wen He is right. Recently, the hidden guards found out that Cao Cao may start contacting Yuan Shao, Liu Bei, Liu Zhang and others."

"If there is a change in our army, I am worried that they will not let this opportunity go. Coupled with the turmoil in the Central Plains, it is not possible to take such a risk."

"Don't worry, Liu Bei is busy fighting in Hanzhong, Cao Cao is busy defending against Kongming, as for Yuan Shao, oh no, it's Yuan Shang, he's busy controlling the forces everywhere,"

"It's impossible for them to gather together in a short time. If my guess is correct, they will wait for the opportunity to join forces against our army at the earliest in late winter and early spring this year."

"There is still half a year left, and we can make it in time. What's more, this trip only needs thousands of soldiers and horses." Zhang Xiu waved his hand and said.

"But my lord, even though that's the case, helping this small country is of no benefit to me!" Lu Su said with a frown.

"Help? Why help them?"

"The small country of Dongying can only be enslaved and surrendered. As for its huge territory, it will become the 14th state of my Han Dynasty in the future, Dongzhou."

Zhang Xiu slowly spread his arms and said loudly.

"???"

Jia Xu, Chen Qun, and Lu Su paused,
Dazed, shocked, and unbelievable expressions appeared on the faces, because Zhang Xiu actually wanted to annex Yamatai?
This... this also...

"My lord, expansion is certainly a good thing, but the Yamatai Kingdom sent envoys to pay homage to the Han, but they were destroyed instead. Wouldn't it be against the demeanor of our Han dynasty?"

"So, will anyone dare to worship in the future?" Chen Qun pursed his lips and said in a deep voice.

"Hehe, demeanor? What's the use of it? When you are strong, these wolves, jackals, tigers and leopards will naturally retract their fangs and hide their sharp claws, but when you are weak,

"This group of guys who bowed their heads in the past will use their fangs to bite off my big man's throat, tear up my big man's flesh and blood, and then swallow it in one bite."

"And the only way to deal with this group of wolves, jackals, and leopards is to kill them, completely." Zhang Xiu's voice became a little colder.

He doesn't like this kind of bragging about being strong, and he even does some stupid things again and again in order to show his strength.

Attacking and killing aliens, aliens were defeated, and countless cattle, sheep and horses were seized. At this time, Confucianism likes to ask, are you convinced or not, and return these things if you are convinced?

He even sent extra people to repair their homes. This is hopelessly stupid, but just because he is a big country, he should have the demeanor of a big country.

Listening to Zhang Xiu's words, Jia Xu nodded strangely. He lives in Xiliang, so he knows the nature of the aliens very well. This group of people are greedy in nature, and they know the nature of the Han Dynasty.
Anyway, if you can beat them, you will bite down hard, but if you can't beat them, you will bow your head and admit your mistakes, and then recognize the big man as the boss, and this boss will send them this and that with the spirit of a great country...

As for Chen Qun and Lu Su, they all looked at each other and didn't say anything, but they felt a little emotional in their hearts. Zhang Xiu's attitude determines the attitude of the big man.

I'm afraid that the operation of those hungry wolves biting and wagging their tails will become a thing of the past.

"Okay, that's the decision on this matter. However, the Central Plains has not been settled recently, and I still need to stay in Xiangyang to deter those corrupt officials."

Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice.

He knows that greed is human nature, and maybe he promoted a group of people to become officials, but after a long time, they will still collude with each other. Human nature is greedy, and it is difficult to curb it.

Even in later dynasties, corruption is not uncommon.

Various policies have been tried, but none of them can curb corruption very well.

The only thing that works is torture, and Anbu, who is only loyal to the emperor, is responsible for monitoring the world.Only in this way can this group of people be restrained, this is just restraint.

"Oh, by the way, Xu heard from General Hu that the general wants to marry Mrs. Qiao at the end of the month, is that okay?" Jia Xu asked tentatively.

Outside the door, Hu Che'er's face turned green.

"It seems...it is true," Zhang Xiu was a little dazed, and suddenly remembered this, but fortunately Jia Xu mentioned it, and he almost forgot.

The time is almost here, and it seems that I haven't talked to Zhang Ning and Tang Ji, no, I have to ask another day.

"My lord, how do you plan to handle this marriage?"

"Uh, what does Wen He think?" Zhang Xiu turned to ask, after all, Jia Xu was too thoughtful.

"My lord, I think that I can invite the squires and families to hold a grand banquet, so as to show the prosperity and magnificence of Jingzhou to the world and make all the people yearn for it."

"By the way, my lord can also add some soldiers to inspect, so that the people can feel at ease, the civil and military can feel at ease, and the rest of the world can feel uneasy."

Jia Xu said loudly.

"Increase the military parade?" Zhang Xiu raised his eyebrows. This idea is not bad. It is a good thing to increase the unity of the soldiers and the people.It's just that the two rushed together, isn't it good?
"The military parade can increase the pride of the people, it can increase the pride of the sergeants, and it can also create some medals to commend the legions and soldiers who have made great achievements."

"However, the military parade is different from others. It should be set up separately, and people will be sent to announce it to the world. Many ministers and ministers will review the soldiers of the Han Dynasty together."

"In this way, at the beginning of next month, we will review the major armies, so that they can prepare a little bit." Zhang Xiu thought for a while, raised his hand and said.

"My lord is wise!" The three of them clasped their hands together.

"As for the marriage, there is still some time, so there is no need to worry. At the moment, we should focus on helping the people and disperse the dark parts. Anyone who embezzles money will be punished with a new death penalty."

"In addition, all localities will fully cooperate in the development of the road, and the road will be the foundation of grain transportation." Zhang Xiu also reminded that the key is to help the victims of the disaster in the Central Plains.

"No!" Jia Xu nodded in response.

"Okay, submit the more important documents in the near future, and I will approve them one by one." Zhang Xiu waved his hand and said.

Immediately, Zhang Xiu began to waste sleep and food for approval.

There are piles of documents all over the place, but today's Zhang Xiu is also handy in handling these documents.

……

At dusk, Zhang Xiu exercised his muscles and bones.

After sitting for a long time, her cervical spine was a little sore, Zhang Xiu got up and moved around, and without hesitation, she took Hu Che'er and walked straight to the blacksmith camp.

Craftsmen determine the upper limit of the dynasty.

If their craftsmanship can be achieved, it is not difficult to manufacture all kinds of rifles.

Not to mention the high-precision m4, simple ak, as long as the technology is enough, it can be mass-produced directly, and it will not be unified globally by then?
To the blacksmith camp,
In one afternoon, I improved the previous car a lot. The front and rear wheels were respectively driven by the front and rear pedals, so as to increase the power.

The middle compartment is made of two horizontal hardwoods, and then covered with a layer of wooden boards, surrounded by half-meter-high doubangs, which are estimated to be able to pull hundreds of catties when used to pull goods.

"My lord, what do you think of this grain truck? It was built according to the drawing you gave me. If there is something inappropriate, we will improve it." An old blacksmith spoke.

"No, it's fine." Zhang Xiu waved his hand.

As he said that, Zhang Xiu stepped forward to stroke it, and then asked, "Have you tried the load and speed?"

"Returning to my lord, I just tested it. A cart can pull 10-13 stones. It should be able to run about 70-90 miles in an hour, but you must have a wrestler to step on the cart."

"In addition, the old man suggested that the wrestlers can set up a post station rotation, so as to transport food faster." The old blacksmith said in a deep voice at this time with dark skin.

"Yeah, that's the case." Zhang Xiu laughed loudly. With this grain truck, the speed of grain transportation should be greatly improved, and it doesn't need too many people to transport grain, which is a good thing.

But there is one thing, bandits and spies destroying the driveway, this needs to be important.Although the track is developed from the official road, some official roads also pass by mountains, so you need to pay attention.
It seems that the militia must be mobilized and people will be sent back and forth to inspect the responsible areas in various places, so as to ensure the smooth flow of the track.

"Okay, let's make it overnight according to this specification. It must be perfect to ensure that people everywhere have food to eat." Zhang Xiu arranged loudly.

"No!" The old blacksmith agreed.

After finishing speaking, he led the people back.

On the contrary, he was a young man, who was a little scared to stay there, but he didn't back down.

"What, what's the matter?" Zhang Xiu also saw the young man, so Hu asked.

It stands to reason that the young man should not be in the blacksmith camp.

"Ma Jun, what are you doing standing there, get out of the way, don't offend the lord." The old blacksmith was a little panicked, although he knew that Zhang Xiu was a good person, he was still a little worried.

"Ma Jun? Your name is Ma Jun?" Zhang Xiu suddenly became interested and asked curiously.

He naturally knew who Ma Jun was, one of the top craftsmen of the Three Kingdoms in the late Han Dynasty, improved the keel waterwheel, the loom, and even improved the Yuan Rong crossbow.

It can be called the first inventor of the Three Kingdoms.

"Mmm, mmm!" Ma Jun lowered his head, humming timidly.

"Did you have something to say just now?" Zhang Xiu asked gently.

"Well, then...that car...can also be used as a tricycle, just like a horse-drawn carriage, it can turn and change the direction of travel."

Ma Jun was born with a stutter, so he weakly pointed at that thing and said.

"Ma Jun, don't talk nonsense in front of the lord," the old blacksmith stepped forward with a look of resentment, pulled Ma Jun and looked at Zhang Xiu with apology.

"Master, Ma Jun is young and ignorant, you must not take it to heart."

Zhang Xiu raised her hand with a smile, looked at Ma Jun and said, "Can you do it?"

"Yes, yes, as long as you can make a movable swivel, but the wheel cannot be equipped with a rim." Ma Jun saw it somewhat thoroughly.

"Oh well."

"Tomorrow, I will send someone to give you a reward, and I will also send someone to give you a certain amount of manpower and material resources to develop tricycles with all my strength, and also to build two-wheeled vehicles,"

"If there is anything you don't understand, you can ask someone to come to me at any time, and I will answer for you." Zhang Xiu laughed boldly, and it was a pleasure to meet Ma Jun at last.

This person's brain and its aura, when the time comes, he should be able to create what he needs with a little guidance, so that's great.

Ma Jun was stunned.
He is but a refugee here,

Because he likes craftsmen, and he is not familiar with the place, he came down to the craftsman camp under the guidance of outsiders, because he knew that his mother would have enough to eat here.

With some extraordinary insights, he was not enough to enter the blacksmith camp with a weak crown, but now, he has reached the sky in one step.

"Ma Jun, thank you soon, my lord," the old blacksmith also said with a relieved smile.

"Thank you, thank you for your gift, my lord." Ma Jun came back to his senses, then pursed the corners of his lips, hoping: "My lord, the blacksmith camp doesn't cost much money, can my lord help to give the money to my mother?"

"Lord, don't worry, my lord, Jun will definitely develop what you need as soon as possible, and won't be lazy."

Zhang Xiu shook his head helplessly. This sensible person made people feel a little distressed. He couldn't help but said: "Hu'er, this matter will be settled later, let Wenhe arrange a house to reward his mother."

Zhang Xiu is not stingy, not only because he raised this question, but also because he is Ma Jun, the number one producer in the Three Kingdoms, probably comparable to Zhuge Liang or Huang Yueying.

"Thank you, my lord," Ma Jun shouted.

"That's not necessary. Apart from these, you should know more about the gear transmission and the function of bearing balls. When I have time in the future, I will teach you personally."

Zhang Xiu patted his arrow very seriously.

If Huang Zhong and Zhao Yun had tens of thousands of enemies, then Ma Jun's role would definitely not be weaker than them.

After explaining this, Zhang Xiu turned and left.

Leaving behind Ma Jun and the crowd cheering beside him, Ma Jun did not indulge in Zhang Xiu's award just now, but would savor what Zhang Xiu just said,

Gear drives, and bearings...

It seems that the gear transmission device can be used in more places. The essence of this thing is rotation, and rotation can be used as a force to propel forward.
Thinking of this, he felt his mind widen a bit.

Perhaps, warships don't necessarily need sails, if there is a bigger transmission device, wouldn't it be...

…………

Zhang Mansion, the backyard.

Looking at Zhang Ning's beautiful cheeks, Zhang Xiu also felt a little emotional. His daughter-in-law was so handsome, she couldn't help but twitched the corners of her mouth: "It's so beautiful!"

Zhang Ning curled his lips, and soon brought some dinner, which was very simple, but it could fill Zhang Xiu's stomach.

"Prime Minister, how can you come to my side when you have so much to do?" Zhang Ning looked at Zhang Xiu who was drinking porridge, and asked curiously.

Zhang Xiu's eyeballs rolled around, the routine still had to be done, and she couldn't help saying affectionately: "Hey, it's a long story, I miss you day and night during this time,"

"At the end of this month, I will marry you with great fanfare, whether or not."

"Welcome, marry me?" Zhang Ning was stunned for a moment, but quickly refused: "No, my father is Zhang Jiao. If..., no matter what, I can't."

Zhang Ning knows what Zhang Jiao represents to the big man. If someone exposes it, it will have an impact on Zhang Xiu's status, so she will not do so.

And she doesn't expect to be the prime minister's wife.

It's good to be alone and free.

After finishing speaking, Zhang Ning was afraid that Zhang Xiu would misunderstand, so he hugged Zhang Xiu from behind again, and said softly in a nasal voice: "Let Ning'er serve the Prime Minister well."

Zhang Xiu: "???'"

Is this inappropriate?
After all, as the gauze skirt fell to the ground, an extremely perfect ketone body appeared extremely perfect under the torch.
