Chapter 212 The situation changes in Wuliangha and the murderous intentions of the two brothers

Jinling City.

British government.

"Fengxue, has the first batch of steel come out from the ironmaking plant?"

Zhu Biao rubbed his hands at Xiao Han.

"Ah."

Xiao Han nodded slightly.

"How's the quality?"

Zhu Biao asked.

"not bad."

"It's the flood season now and there's plenty of water."

"Basically it can meet the needs for steel hammering."

Xiao Han replied.

"That's good."

"How much iron was produced in this first batch?"

Zhu Biao asked again.

"I don't remember the specifics either."

"Probably a few thousand kilograms."

"A little less."

"After this batch of iron plants are completed, the output should be able to increase."

Xiao Han shook his head slightly.

"A lot, a lot."

"This is enough for our Ming Dynasty to make hundreds of sets of armors."

"We must talk about this matter at the court meeting tomorrow."

"Let those scholar-bureaucrats oppose our building an iron factory."

"We must blind their eyes."

"That black... Heizi speaks!"

"Ha ha!"

Zhu Biao smiled.

"As long as you're satisfied."

"I won't go to the court meeting tomorrow."

Xiao Han said.

"what happened?"

Zhu Biao looked at Xiao Han and asked.

"Aren't you harvesting rice these two days?"

"The rice in our agricultural college's experimental field is also good, but they encountered many problems in recording and analysis. I have to deal with it myself."

Xiao Han said helplessly.

"What happened?"

When Zhu Biao heard that it was about the experimental field, he immediately became serious.

"Isn't this the first time?"

"Some farmers in the experimental fields did not master the techniques well, which led to problems with pollination in some experimental fields."

"Some experimental fields have mixed hybrids."

Xiao Han said, rubbing his eyebrows.

"what!"

"Bastard!"

"I'm going to have these people dealt with!"

Zhu Biao was furious.

He also wanted to plant high-yielding rice seeds as soon as possible. Such a group of guys directly affected his plans.

"This is what I expected. After all, these people are not completely skilled in Ming Dynasty agricultural science. It is not surprising that there are problems when participating in experimental field planting."

"Furthermore, the fields with mixed hybridization can actually be used as a special control. Anyway, we have experimental fields where the operation has been successful."

"It's not easy to train such a person, so let's keep him for now."

Xiao Han opened his mouth to explain.

"Since the fields with problems are still useful, what are you worried about?"

Zhu Biao couldn't help but ask Xiao Han.

"Just because it works."

"The workload has increased all of a sudden."

"We are the only four who are truly analytical."

"But I still have to deal with the key issues myself."

"Do you think I can stop being annoyed?"

Xiao Han rolled his eyes.

"Brother Fengxue, Xu Zhuxuan is outside asking to see you."

Chang Qingling walked out and gave Xiao Han a slight salute.

"No, even this job was taken away by Zoë?"

"Okay, tell him to leave it alone until I finish talking to the prince."

Xiao Han's mouth twitched slightly.

"Okay, my lord."

Chang Qingling bowed slightly and retreated.

"This Qingling seems very normal today."

Zhu Biao smiled at Xiao Han.

“It’s only when she’s normal that she appears abnormal.”

Xiao Han pressed his temples with both hands.

"By the way, a few days ago the Yue army came out from the border and launched an attack on the Cham country. Which of the two countries do you think can win?"

Zhu Biao asked Xiao Han.

"Zhan Guo."

Xiao Han said with great certainty.

"why?"

"Although Li Jihao, the commander-in-chief of the Yue Kingdom, may not have the same military capabilities as our Ming Dynasty, he is also a good hand in the areas occupied by the Yue Kingdom."

Zhu Biao said in confusion.

"first."

"This is a separate declaration of war by the Yue State against the occupying State, and our Ming army did not participate in it."

"In this way, the advantage Vietnam gains from us is that it can do business with us and purchase important supplies."

"But on the Zhanguo side, you can also purchase supplies and even weapons from the sea through our fleet flying the Meng Yuan flag."

"In this way, Yue will no longer have this advantage."

"It's time for both sides to tie."

"In terms of geographical advantages, if the Yue Kingdom attacks and occupies the country's defense, the area where the Yue Kingdom occupies the border is narrow, with small horizontal and vertical dimensions. One road can be hit to the black, and the supply line is larger and longer. It is easier to defend and harder to attack." Upward."

"The last thing is Renhe. The Yue Kingdom, including the commander-in-chief Li Jiyou, all went with the mentality of reaping benefits."

"The people of the country are determined to defend their homeland and country to the death."

"In terms of people and people, Zhan Guo can be said to have won."

"In this way, the time, place and people are favorable."

"Except for a tie in terms of weather and timing, we have a favorable location and a big disadvantage to the people of Yue. How can we fight this?"

Xiao Han asked Zhu Biao rhetorically.

"this…"

"It seems that's really what happened."

Zhu Biao opened his mouth, completely unable to refute.

"To say that the only advantage of Vietnam is that its navy is well-preserved and can carry out strikes through water."

"But such an advantage is not enough to ensure victory."

"Although Zipeng is stunned, he is also a battlefield veteran who has been fighting for half his life. His military ability is about the same as that of Li Jihao. Whoever has the home field advantage will win."

"Now that Zipengge has the home court advantage, it should naturally be able to beat Zipengge."

Xiao Han continued to add.

"Then what attitude should our Ming adopt?"

"Have you always stayed out of it?"

Zhu Biao asked Xiao Han.

"Of course not."

"Now our hydraulic blast furnace iron plant in Daming has gradually begun operation."

"Once it really takes shape, our Ming Dynasty's steel will be enough to make money in two places at the same time. No, it will support two wars."

"In this case, we must extend this life to Yue Guo, continue to put pressure on Zhan Guo, and accept more of his filial piety before Zhi Peng Ge finds out."

Xiao Han chuckled.

"You are really as bad as before."

"I like."

Zhu Biao also smiled.

Making money is what he likes most.

Lao Zhu's family was really scared of poverty before, but now Zhu Biao can't close his mouth as he sees huge amounts of money coming in every day.

"Your Highness, urgent report from Northeast."

While the two were talking, Jiang You suddenly broke in and handed a piece of news to Xiao Han.

Xiao Han received the urgent report, but before he read it, his and Zhu Biao's expressions became calm first.

For Jiang You to suddenly break in and send in an urgent report must be nothing good.

"what happened?"

Watching Xiao Han open the memorial and read it, Zhu Biao waited for a moment and asked.

"The barbarians in the Wuliangha area clashed with our caravan and directly burned and killed our recently established medium-sized trading market."

Xiao Han said with a stern face.

The people who dominate the Ming merchants there are all his people. This is even more excessive than what Meng Yuan did back then.

"Are they crazy!?"

"Didn't we build a new guard station there to attack them?"

Zhu Biao was also furious.

"No, it happened suddenly. Only a hundred-person maintenance team from the Market Transaction Management Department was present. By the time our soldiers from the Ming Dynasty arrived, those guys had already fled."

There was a trace of murderous intent in Xiao Han's eyes.

Well, I haven’t wanted to kill someone so much in a long time.

I originally wanted to give these people a chance, but it seems that this is a penalty for not eating the toast.

It's not like he, Xiao Han, can't do it.

"What's the specific situation?"

Zhu Biao asked, forcing himself to calm down.

"The specific circumstances are somewhat suspicious."

"The development of the plot seems to be similar to that of Meng Yuan."

"It was all because of the goods coming to make trouble and the conflict finally broke out."

"I feel that these savages may have been used as weapons by Can Yuan Wang Baobao."

"But that's not important. Since they dare to aim their guns at Daming, don't blame me and just break them off for him."

"As for the others, we will find out later. Those who deserve to pay the price will not be able to escape."

"what do you think?"

Xiao Han said to Zhu Biao.

"hehe."

"You know, the biggest dispute between my father and me is the issue of the nine tribes and the three tribes. Since they have offended our Ming Dynasty, and even you don't object, I naturally support them strongly."

"Where is Jinyi Weihe?"

A hint of violent murderous intent appeared in Zhu Biao's eyes.

"His Royal Highness, your subordinates are here."

Jiang Wei walked out quietly.

"Send the message to Mao Xiang and ask him to lead the Northern Jinyi Guards to help and investigate the matter thoroughly."

"Inform Lan Yu and prepare to mobilize troops to Wuliangha. Gu wants them to understand that if something is committed in Ming Dynasty's territory, they cannot escape the guilt by running back to the mountains."

Zhu Biao spoke indifferently.

"As ordered!"

Jiang Wei was ordered to go down and make arrangements.

"Jiang You."

"You also inform us that our forces and caravan escorts over there will fully cooperate with the operation and obey the orders at any time."

Xiao Han then ordered Jiang You.

"promise!"

Jiang You responded and also retreated.

This time, the two brothers Xiao Han and Zhu Biao were really angry. Even the dynasty like Beiyuan, which was in opposition to the Ming Dynasty in the north, did not dare to offend the Ming Dynasty to death easily.

A group of unscrupulous people from the mountains and wild areas dared to attack Tai Sui. If they were not allowed to pay the price, they would not be able to eat well.

Originally, Xiao Han planned to deal with these people later. After all, the main enemy in the north now is Can Yuan. Although those people were later taken advantage of by the Ming Dynasty, but now they are the ones Xiao Han ordered to kill before he died. There is no need to rush to catch things.

Unexpectedly, the tree wanted to be quiet but the wind stopped. Xiao Han didn't want to rush these people, but they wanted to die themselves.

Then, your so-called dragon vein luck from the north will be cut off right now.

Vietnam occupied the border.

The Yue Kingdom and the Cham Kingdom each sent their troops to form formations, and the war was about to break out.

Although Xiao Han was confident in Zhi Pengge, Zhi Pengge himself was panicking.

On the one hand, Peng Ge's eyesight is not as good as Xiao Han, on the other hand, he is obsessed with the authorities.

After all, although a lot of weapons were obtained from Wang Jing, it was true that ten rooms and nine rooms were looted in this area.

Currently, Zipeng's supplies are all transported from the rear. No matter how it looks, it doesn't look like it can easily defeat the menacing Li Ji Oyster.
