Chapter 174
The spring is beautiful, and the earth is shrouded in a wave of vitality.
The water wheel is running, with water power as the hub. In the mill, the wheat harvested from Guanzhong and other places last year is ground into flour, put into bags, and the bags are stacked, waiting to be transported into the warehouse.
In the canteen, as soon as the fresh noodles were put into the pot, a large number of Mohist disciples scrambled for them.
Mo Yuan stood aside, together with Li Ji, maintaining order in the cafeteria.
This is a busy season, and most of the infrastructure in the Mohist stronghold has been built, waiting for the spring sowing.
Different from the lively scene on the side, in the large weapons workshop, under the tempering of fire and heat, long swords with handles and handles were slowly coming out of the furnace.
Zhao Shuang came to the place where the finished products were placed, and picked up one of the long swords.
No matter from the appearance or the sharpness of the sword body, it can be said to be top grade.
"Grand Commander!"
Master Xu, the leader of the Mohists who came to instruct the making of these weapons, came over from the stove, his upper body was naked, blackened by the smoke from the smoke, he washed his face with water, and walked over.
He came here to give instructions, but halfway through the instruction, he still couldn't help but get started.
"How many have you made?"
"According to the Commander's order, we rushed to work overnight, and there are already a thousand long swords."
Zhao Shuang nodded and said.
"Send this batch of swords out first."
Master Xu didn't have any objections, but there was some doubt on his face.
"Commander, who is the son of a nobleman who wants a thousand long swords?"
"Qin Jun wants it."
Master Xu was taken aback by Zhao Shuang's answer. His expression changed and his entire face froze.
"What does Qin Jun want these looks like?"
"War!"
Zhao Shuang's casual answer made Mr. Xu even more puzzled.
However, Zhao Shuang ignored Mr. Xu's doubts, waved his hand, and gave instructions to the Mohist disciples behind him.
"Today, load these weapons into vehicles and send them to the Qin army."
"promise!"
The sky is high and the clouds are light, in Shanglin Garden.
Sergeant Suwei, Chang'an Jun Chengxue took the weapons purchased from Nanjun and other places, and tested the quality of them.
Cheng Yu was born with courage, holding a long sword in his hand, and with a vigorous swing, a log was cut into two pieces by the sword.
As the commander-in-chief of the Zhao army this time, from the very beginning, he personally took care of the affairs of the upper and lower levels.
When a large army sets out, one hundred thousand divisions cost thousands of dollars a day, and the items used, from horses and vehicles to armor, weapons, paint, oil, leather, leather, and even sauces, salt and other food condiments, are quite different. cumbersome.
Qin State has long established a military and political logistics system to guarantee all of this.It's just that Cheng Yu added an additional inspection procedure.
"Good sword!"
Cheng Yu raised the blade of the sword, blew on the stained fibers, and asked the people around him.
"Where did you buy these weapons?"
"It was purchased by Zhao Shuang, the commander of the army Hanyang Jun, from Nanjun."
Zhao Shuang?
Cheng Yu didn't like this name very much.
Hanyang Lord Zhao Shuang, from his origin to the relationship between the court and China, there was no doubt that he should get closer to him, and he should get closer to Changping Lord, but he hooked up with Lu Buwei.
It was this position of Sima in charge of the army that was recommended by Lu Buwei.
"Your Highness, General Fan Yuqi is here."
"Let him in!"
Fan Yuqi came on horseback, and when he got close to Cheng Xu, he got off his horse and walked.
"Your Highness, the [-]-step army at Gaoling has been dispatched."
"The general is doing well."
For Fan Yuqi, a subordinate of Lord Changping, Lord Chang'an still respected him.
"Your Highness, your newly customized sword has an extraordinary style, it must be from a famous master!"
Cheng Yu smiled and threw the sword away.
"This is a thousand long swords sent by Zhao Shuang for the army. Although the price is three times more expensive, they are all high-grade."
Fan Yuqi was startled, and was about to say something when he saw Cheng Xun's face showing joy.
"With this good soldier, the matter of defeating Zhao will definitely be smoother."
Fan Yuqi looked at the elated Cheng Yu and the people around him, but he didn't say any more.
"What did you say?"
When Fan Yuqi told Mr. Changping what he saw from the Shanglin Garden, the other party looked angry.
"Your Majesty, I checked after the fact that the weapons sent by Lord Hanyang are all well-made top-grade ones. They are indeed good weapons if they are used for fighting in the rivers and lakes, or for decoration by the children of the nobles. But how can they use long swords when leading soldiers to fight? ?”
With anger in his eyes, Mr. Changping patted the table with his hands.
"What exactly does Zhao Shuang want to do!"
Lord Changping looked at Fan Yuqi and questioned him.
"Why didn't you remonstrate at the beginning?"
"The final general wanted to persuade him, but His Highness was very happy at that time, and there were other people around. The final general was afraid of hurting His Highness's face, so he forbears it."
Fan Yuqi paused, and swallowed some words in his throat.Seeing this, Mr. Changping waved his hand.
"what do you want to say?"
"Mr. Hanyang, is this young and ignorant being deceived by others, or is there another plan?"
"Young and ignorant?" Mr. Changping sneered, "If he was young and ignorant, there would be no sensible person in this world!"
"Your Majesty, Lord Hanyang is bullying Lord Chang'an that he doesn't understand military affairs, and deliberately used some fakes to deceive him?"
"If only Zhao Shuang just wanted to make some money."
Mr. Changping sighed, a sense of worry flooded his heart, and he looked a little tired.
"After all, Mr. Chang'an is young and has not yet reached the championship. Now he is the leader of an army. Everyone who is attached to him wants to make a profit. He has been extremely brave and intelligent since he was a child. He is ruthless in fighting and fighting for power and skill. Proficient in everything. But marching and fighting is not just about bravery and intelligence, it also needs to be honed."
Mr. Changping stroked his beard and sighed.
"There may be people in this world who are born to fight, but I have never seen them."
"Jun Chang'an has stood at a height that is difficult for ordinary people to reach since he was a child. He is a born king. Therefore, he cannot see the darkness below and the desires of ants. Courage and intelligence will instead magnify this fatal weakness and be taken advantage of by others. .”
"What does your majesty mean?"
"Zhao Shuang, isn't this here? And Lu Buwei behind this is even more sinister."
Mr. Changping shook his head, looking a little tired.
If some things are kept in the dark, then no matter how the waves turn up, it won't have much impact.But once it is turned to the bright side and there is a lot of movement, the impact will be different.
"The purpose of His Highness to defeat Zhao this time is to establish prestige in the army, but His Highness is thinking simply after all!"
"In the name of the chief general, you have ordered Zhao Shuang not to buy these long swords anymore, and he is only allowed to buy standard swords. In addition, you have to personally ask about logistics supplies, and be careful not to make mistakes. After the beginning of summer, the army will be deployed. There is a loss."
"I will understand at the end!"
