Chapter 195 Exercise
Arranging for Guan Zhengqing to stay, Huang Shao turned around and returned to the main hall to discuss with the Great Emperor of the Canglan Kingdom: "Your Majesty, do you still remember Yan Chengxian and Hong Xiushan from the Qixia Kingdom who joined us a while ago?"
The emperor nodded. "What do you want to say? I remember that the one who put Yan Chengxian and Hong Xiushan in was Huang Feihu, the general of Tianmenguan. This Huang Feihu is also surnamed Huang."
Huang Shaoxian did not shy away from it: "Your Majesty, Huang Feihu is a side branch of the Huang family. Therefore, the Huang family also participated in the black iron workshop established by Yan Chengxian and Hong Xiushan."
After a short pause, Huang Shaoxian continued: "Your Majesty, what I want to say is that the technology obtained by Yan Chengxian and Hong Xiushan can mass-produce 60% pure black iron, and then obtain high-purity black iron through complicated water forging techniques.
This technology is more than ten times more advanced than all our current technologies. And the Zhang family has even better technology.
According to our current information, it seems that the Zhang family can directly produce 95% pure black iron! It can also produce black iron for alchemy, and the output is very high.
There is also vague news that the Zhang family has now invented a spiritual material called 'steel'. But the specific situation has not been ascertained, only a little bit of information has been obtained through the banquet. "
The emperor nodded again, "I see, this Zhang family is not ordinary. Although it has the background of Xuanzhen Sect, the technology of the Zhang family is very important. If we can win over the Zhang family, or get the technology of the Zhang family, our country will be Will have enough high-end black iron.
And with high-end black iron, more magic weapons and spiritual weapons can be forged, and our country's combat effectiveness can at least be doubled. And that was enough to turn the tide of battle.
You don't even need to care about the plans of the Kingdom of Jinyang! Even if it is a two-front battle, it can be tolerated! "
"Your Majesty is wise, that's what I mean. So, now I'm thinking, how should we get the Zhang family's technology? Should we take advantage of the power of the Kingdom of Jinyang, and wait until the Zhang family is facing the crisis of collapse, and then go to the Zhang family's family?" What about the shot?
At that time, take the Zhang family over! The Zhang family will also be grateful to Dade! "
The emperor fell into contemplation for a while, and finally nodded slowly: "It seems feasible. It's just how to do it, you can think about it again.
It is best to stabilize the Qixia Kingdom and help us hold back the main force of the Jinyang Kingdom, while at the same time make the Qixia Kingdom unable to recover, and buy enough time for us. "
"The minister... needs to discuss with the right minister and the generals."
The emperor pondered for a while, and said: "How about this, you go to the imperial study room at night, and we will discuss it together."

But Guan Zhengqing frowned after he was arranged outside the palace to arrange the residences of envoys from various countries. He vaguely felt that things... just might be troublesome!
Guan Zhengqing was a little frightened by the conditions of the Land of Canglan and his faintly revealed ambitions.
While Guan Zhengqing was thinking, suddenly a guard came in and announced, "Master Guan, there are people outside asking to see you."
"See you?" Guan Zhengqing was puzzled, "I came here alone, so it doesn't matter here?"
But after thinking about it, Guan Zhengqing couldn't help being curious.
After a while, three young people came in. The three young people were dressed in a strange way. They were neither the strong clothes of soldiers or mercenaries, nor the Taoist robes of ordinary practitioners, nor the clothes of ordinary people. The elegant Taoist robe has an indescribably bookish atmosphere.
Obviously, this is not the dress of the West of Fertile Continent.
After the three came in, the young people among them bowed to each other: "Junior Xu Jie, I pay my respects to senior."
"Junior Yan Qing, pay my respects to senior."
"Junior Zheng You, meet senior."
Guan Zhengqing was a little dazed: "What do you want from me?"
Xu Jie was the first to speak: "I heard that senior came from Qixia Country, so I came here specially to visit."
"Oh? Please sit down, three friends." After inviting the three to sit down, Guan Zhengqing asked again.
Xu Jie said slowly: "Senior, there is such a family in your country. This family lives in Ninghe County and Changshan Town. The family is very small. It mainly smelts black iron, and its iron-making method is water forging. The name of the owner is It's called... Zhang Shengde?"
"The Zhang Family of Ninghe County!" Guan Zhengqing became even more curious, "The Zhang Family is now a large family. Where did you hear the news?"
Xu Jie sighed: "It's a long story. I am from the "Land of Green Sun", the second son of the family, the kind of person who has no inheritance rights.
About ten years ago, when I was in my teens and started to understand, I met a practitioner who traveled all over the world, and I became a teacher. Afterwards, I traveled around with Master, and arrived at the Continent of Kunlun.
Later in the Kunlun Continent, I came into contact with some new ideas, and met two friends, Yan Qing and Zheng You.
But at the beginning of this year, my master died due to the recurrence of old injuries. Before he died, I asked me to cremate him and take the birthday box to the Zhang family, and handed it over to the master's younger sister, Li Yunxiang, who is also the mistress of the Zhang family. .
At the beginning of the year, we came with merchant ships. We didn’t want Qianlong Port to be captured by the Kingdom of Langya just after we landed. The war broke out and the east-west passage was blocked.
Today I heard that Mr. is from the country of Qixia, so I took the liberty to visit. "
Guan Zhengqing was a little amazed, such a twists and turns story, such a vast geographical detour, just this story can write a travelogue.
After thinking for a while, Guan Zhengqing said slowly: "In this case, you should go down here first, and contact you when I leave.
But... Judging from the current situation, I'm afraid it won't be too smooth if we want to reach Qixia Country, so the three little friends need to be prepared. "
…………
In the blink of an eye, in five days, the Dayang Group held another shareholder meeting to discuss the commander-in-chief and main generals of the legion.
On this day, everyone gathered more than 20 "top generals"—anyway, they all said that their side was the best, and they were all full of confidence.
After arguing for a long time, Zhang Hao clapped his hands, "Now that we are all here, let's have an actual combat exercise. How about each general commanding a thousand people, using wooden weapons, etc., to conduct a military exercise?"
After discussing for a while, everyone agreed with this decision. Now everyone has gathered a total of more than 20,000 troops, and each general has 1,000 people, which has just been allocated.
Zhang Hao announced loudly: "Everyone has a whole day tomorrow to reorganize and practice the team. In the morning of the day after tomorrow, we will conduct a drill at Luanci Mountain.
As for the wooden weapons used in battle, everyone can make them by themselves, which can be regarded as a small test. The group will provide basic timber and other basic supplies. "
Everyone agreed again.
The corners of Zhang Hao's mouth curled up slowly: "There is still time today. The Zhang family has recently manufactured a brand new weapon, which has been arranged in Luanci Mountain. Are you interested in taking a look?"
Bai Ye was the first to speak: "Young Master Zhang can invite you personally. This weapon must be not easy. I must have a look!"
Zhou Jue smiled, "I was thinking, is this new weapon... explosives?"
"Dynamite?" Everyone looked curious. What did the Zhang family do again?
