Chapter 1265 New Blueprints 

In the study room of the Marquis of Hanzhong Mansion.

Bai Feng looked at the letter in his hand and was a little surprised.

The shipbuilding industry of Wei has indeed been developing continuously over the years.

However, Bai Feng did not expect that Wei would restore the sea route to Yamatai so quickly.

Cao Jie saw the surprised expression on Bai Feng's face after reading the letter, and couldn't help but be curious about the content of the letter.

"Husband, what happened in Yamatai?"

"It was the fleet of Wei. The fleet of Wei arrived at Yamatai five days ago."

Bai Feng said to Cao Jie after hearing this.

"The fleet of Wei actually arrived at Yamatai?"

Cao Jie was also surprised after hearing this.

After conquering Dongwu, the shipbuilding industry of Wei was restored.

However, shipbuilding is different from making armor and swords. The wood needed and the craftsmen for shipbuilding are very scarce.

Now that the fleet of Wei can reach Yamatai, it is indeed beyond the expectations of Cao Jie and Bai Feng.

"Well, Himiko received the generals of the Wei fleet. Neither Li Cunxiao nor Meng Jie showed up."

Then Bai Feng told Cao Jie about the situation mentioned by Himiko in the letter.

After the Wei was strong and the shipbuilding industry was restored, Cao Cao planned to build ships and reopen the sea route.

The first batch of ships built chose the direction of Yamatai for their first voyage.

The general who led the fleet was Wen Pin.

After the Wei unified the world, Wen Pin was appointed by Cao Cao to guard Jiangxia and train the navy because of his outstanding military exploits and his knowledge of the navy. He is now the governor of Jiangxia.

After Cao Cao established the new navy fleet, he let Wen Pin take charge of this navy and set about opening up the sea route of the Wei.

So Wen Pin found the sea route to Yamatai that was previously recorded in the classics.

Originally, Wen Pin's plan was to directly occupy Yamatai. Which general would not be tempted by the merit of expanding the territory?

However, after Wen Pin's naval fleet came to Yamatai after many hardships, they found that Yamatai already had a large number of people, and there was a queen ruling the entire Yamatai.

With the strength of the navy led by Wen Pin, there was really no way to pose a threat to Yamatai.

If Himiko gave an order, Wen Pin would not even be able to leave Yamatai.

Now the fleet led by Wen Pin is replenishing supplies in Yamatai.

Himiko wrote to Bai Feng to ask if the fleet led by Wen Pin could be detained directly in Yamatai.

In this way, Yamatai would save time in building ships.

"At this time, Wen Pin's fleet should be left in Yamatai by Himiko for repairs, and wait for my reply to make the next arrangements."

Bai Feng said to Cao Jie.

In fact, Cao Jie didn't want to see Bai Feng and Dawei confront each other, but according to Bai Feng's character, even if he wanted to take this Dawei fleet for himself, he would not take the lives of Wen Pin and the Dawei navy soldiers on the ship.

At most, they will be allowed to settle down in Yamatai from now on.

There is no need to think about returning to Wei.

After seeing Cao Jie's reluctant expression, Bai Feng smiled at Cao Jie:

"Jie'er, are you worried that I will leave this fleet in Yamatai?"

Cao Jie nodded.

"Hahaha, Jie'er, don't worry about this Wei fleet. I have no intention of leaving this fleet in Yamatai."

"Yamatai's shipbuilding technology must be developed, otherwise it will not be able to maintain this fleet, and Yamatai does not have enough experienced naval commanders to command this fleet."

"So I will write back to Himiko and let this fleet leave after replenishing supplies in Yamatai."

Then Bai Feng explained to Cao Jie why he would not detain this fleet.

Building a navy is not like recruiting infantry, where you can go to the battlefield to kill the enemy after distributing armor and swords.

Not only do the navy soldiers have to overcome problems such as seasickness, but their fighting methods are also very different from those of infantry.

Even if Bai Feng detained this fleet, the improvement of Yamatai's strength would be extremely limited.

You can't let Wen Pin lead this naval fleet!

Cao Jie couldn't help but smile when she saw that Bai Feng had no intention of detaining the Wei fleet.

Although she didn't fully understand Bai Feng's explanation, she understood that even if Yamatai had this fleet, it was just a dozen more large ships, and it still had no combat power.

"My husband, is it okay to just let this fleet return to Wei?"

Now Cao Jie began to worry that Wen Pin and other naval generals would discover the connection between Yamatai and Bai Feng.

If Cao Cao knew that Bai Feng had actually occupied Yamatai, the relationship between the two would definitely be worse.

"Of course I won't let Wen Pin take this fleet back to Wei just like that."

Bai Feng already had a new plan in mind.

"Since Wei wants to reopen the sea route, then I'll do business with Wei. It just so happens that the R&D center is still short of a lot of steel."

Then Bai Feng told Cao Jie about his new plan.

Cao Jie's eyes lit up when he heard it.

This should be considered a win-win situation, right?

"My husband is really thoughtful!"

Cao Jie couldn't help but praise Bai Feng.

"Hahaha!"

Bai Feng laughed when he heard this, and then began to reply to Himiko.

After Cao Jie learned about Bai Feng's next plan, he stopped disturbing Bai Feng who was replying to the letter, and then left the study.

After Bai Feng replied to Himiko, he silently recited the system interface in his mind again.

Before, Bai Feng was interrupted by a letter from Yamatai when he was about to draw the blueprint. He found another way to solve the steel problem of the R&D center.

However, in order to completely meet the R&D center's next steel demand, it is still necessary to mine and smelt iron in Hanzhong.

So Bai Feng is going to continue to draw the formula for making explosives.

The black powder formula suitable for firearms is still a little weak in mining.

If a large amount of black powder is used, the personal safety of miners will be difficult to guarantee.

And the storage of black powder is also a problem. Bai Feng doesn't want to kill a few miners because of improper storage of black powder before blasting the rocks on the mountain. That would be a loss.

After the system lottery interface appeared, Bai Feng first looked at the existing reputation value.

"Well, it's enough for three ten-draws. It's been a long time since I drew in the system. I must have accumulated a lot of luck!"

Before clicking on the ten-draw, Bai Feng thought silently in his heart.

As a burst of light flashed in front of Bai Feng's eyes, the sound of the system prompt kept ringing in Bai Feng's ears.

[Ding! Congratulations on obtaining: Nitroglycerin/Oil Explosives Formula × 1! ]

[Ding! Congratulations on obtaining: Blast Furnace Construction Blueprint × 1! ]

[Ding! Congratulations on obtaining: Fuchuan Construction Blueprint × 1! ]

After seeing the first three system prompts, Bai Feng didn't care about the rest of the system prompts.
